Bladder urothelial carcinoma is one of the common malignant tumors of the urinary system.The traditional treatment is transurethral resection of bladder tumor (TURBT)，which is mainly used for non-muscle invasive bladder cancer.However，this surgical procedure has problems such as fragmented specimens，inaccurate staging，and high incidence of complications.With the development of surgical techniques and equipment，en bloc resection of bladder tumor (ERBT) is gradually replacing traditional TURBT thanks to advantages of minimal trauma，fewer complications，and so on.ERBT based on various types of lasers provides clinicians with multiple choices，such as neodymium laser，holmium laser，thulium laser，blue laser，and diode laser.However，lasers have different advantages as well as limitations.This paper explores the current application of various lasers in ERBT，and analyzes the challenges and plans in handling large volume bladder tumors and collecting specimens，so as to provide reference for clinical urologists.

Purpose To study the clinical and pathological features of angiomatoid fibrous histocytoma(AFH)and to ex-plore its diagnosis,differential diagnosis and prognosis.Meth-ods The clinicopathological and follow-up data were analyzed in 14 cases of AFH,and the literatures were reviewed.Results There were 11 males and 3 females.The age ranged from 11 months to 12 years and 11 months,with average 5.9 years.3 cases were located in limbs,and 5 cases in trunk,5 cases in head and neck region,and 1 of intracranial tumor.Histological-ly,14 cases were composed of fibrous capsules and lymphocyte sheaths,and cell nucleus were vacuolar,forming fascicles with focal whirling and synteny.Intralesional pseudoangiomatous spaces were noted in 9 cases.Calcification was found in 2 ca-ses.2 cases showed high mitotic acticity(11/10 HPF).Scle-rosing and/or myxoid stroma was seen in 3 cases.Tumors were immunopositive for desmin(10/14),EMA(12/14),CD99(12/14),SMA(9/12),ALK(7/8),and the average of Ki67 index was 16％.7 cases harbored EWSR1 rearrangenent(part-ner gene not identified),2 cases had EWSR1-ATF1 fusion and 2 EWSR1-CREB1 fusion.Clinical follow-up information was a-vailable for 14 cases(average 46 months).All the 14 cases were alive without recurrence and metastasis.Conclusion AFH is a borderline or low-grade malignant tumor,often demon-strates indolent behavior in children,but rarely recurs and me-tastasizes.The diagnosis and differential diagnosis require a comprehensive analysis of clinical features,histopathologic changes,immunohistochemical finding and EWSR1 or FUS gene detection results.

Objective:To investigate the relationship between 1p/16q loss of heterozygosity (LOH) and 1p gain in Wilms tumor and their clinicopathologic characteristics and prognosis.Methods:A total of 175 Wilms tumor samples received from the Department of Pathology, Beijing Children′s Hospital from September 2019 to August 2022 were retrospectively analyzed. The histopathologic type and presence of lymph node involvement were evaluated by two pathologists. The clinical data including patients′gender, age, tumor location, preoperative chemotherapy, and tumor stage were summarized. Fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) was done to detect 1p/16q LOH and 1p gain and their correlation with the clinicopathological features and prognosis were analyzed.Results:Among the 175 samples, 86 cases (49.1%) were male and 89 (50.9%) were female. The mean age was (3.5±2.9) years, and the median age was 2.6 years. There were 26 (14.9%) cases with 1p LOH, 28 (16.0%) cases with 16q LOH, 10 (5.7%) cases of LOH at both 1p and 16q, and 53 (30.3%) cases with 1q gain. 1q gain was significantly associated with 1p LOH ( P<0.01) and 16q LOH ( P<0.01). There were significant differences ( P<0.01) between 1q gain, 1p LOH and 16q LOH among different age groups. The rate of 16q LOH in the high-risk histopathological subtype (50.0%) was significantly higher than that in the intermediate-risk subtype (13.6%, P<0.05). The frequency of 1q gain, 1p LOH, and 16q LOH in children with advanced clinical stages (Ⅲ and Ⅳ) was significantly higher than that in children with early clinical stages (Ⅰ and Ⅱ). 1q gain, 1p LOH, and 16q LOH showed no significant correlation with gender, unilateral or bilateral disease, chemotherapy, or lymph node metastasis. The progression-free survival (PFS) time for patients with 1q gain and 1p LOH was significantly shorter than those without these aberrations ( P<0.05). Additionally, the PFS time of patients with 16q LOH was slightly shorter than those with normal 16q, although the difference was not statistically significant. Patients with stage Ⅲ to Ⅳ disease exhibiting 1q gain or 1p LOH had a significantly higher relative risk of recurrence, metastasis, and mortality. Conclusions:1p/16q LOH and 1q gain are associated with age, high-risk histological type, and clinical stage in Wilms tumor. 1q gain and 1p LOH are significantly correlated with the prognosis of Wilms tumor.

BACKGROUND:Traumatic spinal cord injury primarily relies on scale assessment and imaging examinations in clinical practice.However,there are limitations in predicting the prognosis of the injury.Therefore,the use of metabolomics technology for biomarker screening is significant for estimating the extent of damage,injury and recovery,as well as developing new therapies. OBJECTIVE:To characterize the metabolic features of patients with traumatic spinal cord injury using metabolomics technology and explore potential biomarkers and disrupted metabolic pathways. METHODS:Serum and urine samples were collected from 20 patients with traumatic spinal cord injury(observation group)and 10 healthy subjects(control group).Metabolites were analyzed and multivariate statistical analysis was then performed for data processing to screen differential metabolites.Metabolic pathway enrichment was performed using MetaboAnalyst software.Logistic regression was applied to construct a biomarker combination model,and its relationship with the American Spinal Injury Association grading was analyzed. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Significant differences in 160 and 73 metabolites were detected in the serum and urine samples of the two groups,respectively.Pathway enrichment analysis showed evident disturbances in lipid metabolism after traumatic spinal cord injury,including sphingolipid,arachidonic acid,α-linolenic acid,and arachidonic acid metabolism,as well as glycerophospholipid and inositol phosphate biosynthesis.The combination of two identified biomarkers,telmisartan and quercetin glycoside,showed a correlation with the American Spinal Injury Association grading in both serum and urine levels.Thus,metabolomics technology provides assistance in further understanding the pathological mechanisms of traumatic spinal cord injury and screening therapeutic targets.The identified metabolic biomarker combination may serve as a reference for assessing the severity of traumatic spinal cord injury.

[Objective] To explore the cellular composition and gene expression characteristics of adrenocortical adenoma (ACA) based on single-nuclear RNA sequencing. [Methods] The postoperative resection samples of 2 ACA cases treated at our hospital during Jul.and Aug.2022 were collected.The cellular composition was isolated and identified with single-nuclear RNA sequencing, the adrenal cortical subgroups were subdivided with specific cortical cell subgroup markers, and the characteristic gene expression profile was studied. [Results] The main components of ACA were adrenal cortical cells (78.62%), endothelial cells (1.91%), fibroblasts (3.09%), macrophages (14.34%), and T cells (2.05%). Subdivision of cortical cells revealed a group of undefined cells (1.08%), in addition to zona glomerulosa (ZG) cells (1.77%), zona fasciculata (ZF) cells (94.98%), and zona reticularis (ZR) cells (2.17%). These undefined cells were characterized by high expression of intercellular adhesion molecule 1, growth arrest and DNA damage inducing proteins β, tumor necrosis factor α inducing protein 3 and CD36 molecules.According to correlation analysis of the gene expression, these undefined cells were similar to the ZF cells.DEGs enrichment analysis indicated that the metabolic process enrichment index was the highest in biological processes.Reactome GO enrichment analysis revealed that the immune system cytokine signaling response was the most significant.KEGG signaling pathway analysis showed that Th17 cell differentiation pathway was the mostly enriched.DEGs were found to be most closely related to viral infection by DO enrichment analysis. [Conclusion] This study reveals for the first time the gene expression profile characteristics of cell subset in ACA, which can provide reference to explore the mechanism of ACA.

Objective:From the perspective of patients'emotions,to compare and study the effectiveness between experiential communication and GLTC communication of outpatient doctors,understand the main communication details that affect patients'emotions,and provide a reference for improving patient emotions and enhancing doctor-patient communication skills in the future.Methods:From July 2021 to January 2022,a pilot study of GLTC communication program in outpatient settings was conducted in a total of 24 departments from 4 tertiary comprehensive hospitals in Jiangsu Province.Descriptive analysis,independent sample t-test,multiple linear regression and other analyses were conducted on the relevant data.Results:After experiential communication in outpatient settings,patients showed improvements in dimensions of emotion such as anxiety,fatigue,confusion,and depression,but there was a decrease in patient vitality(P<0.05).After GLTC communication in outpatient settings,patients'emotions in all six dimensions improved(P<0.05).Meanwhile,the GLTC group had better emotions than the experiential group after communication(P<0.05).After training,the completion rate of relevant communication details of doctors in the GLTC group was mostly significantly higher than that in the experiential within the same unit time(P<0.05).Multiple linear regression showed that smiling,comforting language,and kind gaze were the main factors affecting patients'overall emotions.Conclusion:Experiential communication in outpatient settings has certain communication effects,but there is still a lot of room for improvement compared to GLTC communication in outpatient settings.GLTC communication in outpatient settings can improve patients'emotions,and doctors'smiles,comforting language,and other communication details need to be emphasized in outpatient settings.How to improve the execution of GLTC communication in outpatient settings plans is an important direction for future research.

Objective:To analyze the clinical characteristics, imaging, myopathology and outcomes of patients with COVID-19 related autoimmune myopathy.Methods:The clinical features, serum creatine kinase (CK), myositis antibodies, muscle magnetic resonance imaging, myopathology and therapy of 5 patients with COVID-19 related autoimmune myopathy diagnosed in Peking University First Hospital from December 2022 to April 2023 were collected. The effects of the therapy after a short term follow up were analyzed.Results:Among the 5 patients, there were 3 males and 2 females, with onset age of 42-86 years. All patients presented with proximal muscle weakness in the recovery term of COVID-19. Myalgia was noted in 3 cases, dysphagia in 1, skin damage in 2, interstitial lung disease in 1. The serum CK of the 5 patients was 1 663-16 000 IU/L, 1 patient had anti-3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-CoA reductase autoantibodies and 1 patient had anti-signal recognition particle autoantibodies. The electromyography showed myogenic lesions in all patients. Muscle magnetic resonance imaging showed diffuse muscle edema in all patients, myofascial edema in 3 and subcutaneous-tissue edema in 3. The muscle biopsies in 4 patients revealed necrotic myopathy,with high P62 expression in muscle fibers. The electromicroscopy of 2 patients revealed vacuolated mitochondria and intranuclear tubulofilamentous inclusions in muscle fibers. Four patients were treated with glucocorticoids, of whom 2 patients combined with intravenous immunoglobulin, tacrolimus or cyclophosphamide. One case had close monitoring without drug therapy. They showed significant improvement, but the CK was still abnormal in 4 patients.Conclusions:COVID-19 leads to immune mediated myopathy. The manifestation of patients is characterized by proximal predominant weakness and high creatine kinase level. Muscle magnetic resonance imaging shows diffuse muscle edema. The muscle biopsies reveal necrotic myopathy. The effectiveness of immunosuppression needs to be further studied.

【Objective】 To explore the learning curve of single-surgeon robot-assisted laparoscopic radical prostatectomy (RARP), which provides a reference for physicians who intend to carry out RARP. 【Methods】 The clinical data of 65 prostate cancer patients who underwent RARP in our hospital during Sep.2022 and Dec.2023 were retrospectively analyzed.The patients’ median age was 67.5(58.1-82.4) years, median total prostate-specific antigen (PSA) was 15.6 (6.7-98.4) ng/mL, median body mass index (BMI) was 20.8(17.4-27.3) and preoperative clinical stage of tumor was T2aN0M0-T3bN1M0.The cumulative sum (CUSUM) method was used to fit the learning curves of machine installation time and operation time.According to the inflection points, the learning curves were divided into different learning stages, and the clinical data of patients at different learning stages were compared. 【Results】 The learning curve of RARP was 12 cases.The 65 cases were divided into three stages: 1st-12th cases in the learning stage, 13rd-43rd cases in the mastery stage, and 44th-65th cases in the proficiency stage.With the increase of the number of surgical cases, the median operation time [191(100-360) min vs. 116(83-165) min vs. 90(75-105) min] and median intraoperative blood loss [403(180-900) mL vs. 236(180-305) mL vs. 94(30-200) mL] in the three stages showed a gradual downward trend (P<0.05).The median machines installation time of the learning stage was significantly longer than that in the mastery stage and the proficiency stage [25(21-28) min vs. 12(11-15) min vs. 12(11-14) min] (P<0.05).The positive surgical marginrate (PSM) in the learning stage was significantly higher than that in the mastery stage and proficiency stage (41.7% vs.22.6% vs.22.7%) (P<0.05). 【Conclusion】 For surgeons with rich experience in traditional laparoscopic surgery, the learning curve of RARP is about 12 cases, and after 43 cases, the operation time and intraoperative blood loss can be further reduced.

Objective:To analyze the clinic effects of arthroscopic partial trapeziectomy and suture button suspensionplasty in the treatment of first carpometacarpal joint (CMCJ) Eaton stage II/III arthrosis.Methods:A retrospective study was conducted on a total of 15 cases (16 hands) of patients including 5 males (1 bilateral) and 10 females with CMCJ stage II/III arthrosis who underwent surgical treatment at the first affiliated hospital of Shenzhen university from January 2020 to June 2022, with mean age of 56.7±6.4 years (range, 46-75 years). The duration from pain to treatment was 7.8±3.2 months (range, 4-14 months). X-ray showed narrowing of CMCJ with osteophytes and distal radial subluxation. All the patients were treated with arthroscopic partial trapeziectomy and suture button suspensionplasty. The preoperative and last postoperative follow-up radiographs, visual analogue scale (VAS), thumb's Kapandji scores, disabilies of the arm, shoulder, and hand (DASH) scores, grip and pinch strength and time to return to work were compared.Results:All cases were followed up for 19.6±6.3 months (range, 11-36 months). The postoperative X-ray showed all the CMCJs were reduced with a normal height of first metacarpal. The mean time for patients to return to their daily activities was 18.69±3.70 d and the mean time to return to work was 24.63±4.91 d. The average VAS score decreased from 6.56±1.15 preoperatively to 1.00 (0.75, 1.25). The preoperative Kapandji's score was 8.00±0.82 and the postoperative Kapandji's score was 8.00 (7.25, 9.00). The average DASH values improved from 24.06±3.19 to 4.00 (3.00, 5.00). The were significant differences except for Kapandji score ( Z=-4.905, P<0.001; Z=-0.121, P=0.905; Z=-4.846, P<0.001). The mean grip and pinch strength showed improvement from an average of 16.4 (14.13, 18.68) kg and 1.70±0.35 kg to 26.14±3.27 kg and 3.58±0.91 kg with significant difference ( Z=-4.617, P<0.001; t=-7.669, P<0.001). Conclusion:Arthroscopic partial trapeziectomy and suture button suspensionplasty is a minimally invasive surgery for the treatment of first CMCJ Eaton stage II/III arthrosis. By this technique, the patients' existing instability and pain problems can be solved.
