OBJECTIVE To analyze and identify the metabolites of pirtobrutinib （PTN） in rats， and clarify the possible metabolic pathways of PTN in rats. METHODS Six rats were intragastrically administered with 10 mg/kg PTN suspension. Blood samples were collected from the rats 30 minutes before administration and at 0.25， 0.5， 1， 2， 4， 6， 8， 12， 24 hours after administration. Urine and feces samples were collected 12 hours before administration and 24 hours after administration. UHPLC- Orbitrap Exploris 240 system combined with Compound Discoverer 3.0 and Xcalibur 2.0 software were adopted for structural identification and metabolic pathway analysis of PTN metabolites in rat plasma， urine， and feces. RESULTS A total of 29 PTN metabolites were identified， including 17， 19 and 22 metabolites in plasma， urine and feces， respectively. The metabolic pathways of PTN mainly included oxidation， sulfation， glucuronidation， etc.， and its metabolites were mostly combination products of two or more different metabolic forms. In detail， a total of 26 metabolites were associated with phase Ⅰ metabolic reactions （14 oxidation metabolites， 9 reduction/dehydrogenation metabolites， 8 demethylation metabolites， and 5 hydrolysis metabolites）. Meanwhile， a total of 20 products were involved in phase Ⅱ metabolites （14 sulfation metabolites and 8 glucuronic acid binding metabolites）. CONCLUSIONS PTN exhibits a diverse range of metabolites in rat fecal samples， with the primary metabolic pathways being oxidation， sulfation， glucuronidation， and others.

Objective To investigate the relationship between tooth loss and the occurrence of esophageal cancer in a natural village in Wenfeng District, Anyang City, Henan Province. Methods A prospective cohort study was conducted to observe the occurrence of tooth loss and esophageal cancer among the asymptomatic residents of the natural village for 16 years from January 2008 to July 2024. Data were analyzed by chi-square test, binary logistic regression, and restricted cubic spline. Results Among the total population of 711 cases, 136 cases were lost to follow-up and 575 cases were included in the final statistics, including 45 cases with esophageal cancer. Significant statistical difference was found between esophageal cancer patients with and without tooth loss (P<0.05). Logistic regression analysis showed that tooth loss was associated with the occurrence of esophageal cancer (OR=3.977, 95%CI: 1.543-10.255). After the adjustment for confounders, tooth loss remained significantly associated with the occurrence of esophageal cancer (OR=3.038, 95%CI: 1.035-8.914). A nonlinear dose-response relationship was observed between the number of teeth lost and the incidence of esophageal cancer. When the number of teeth lost was less than 12, the risk of esophageal cancer increased with the number of teeth lost. When more than 12 teeth were lost, the risk of esophageal cancer decreased as the number of teeth lost increased. Conclusion Tooth loss is a risk factor for the occurrence of esophageal cancer in this natural village. When the number of teeth lost is less than 12, the risk of esophageal cancer increases with the number of teeth lost.

Objective To investigatethe relationship between gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) symptoms and clinicopathological characteristics, p53 expression, and survival of Chinese patients with esophageal adenocarcinoma. Methods A total of 3882 patients with esophageal adenocarcinoma, 970 matched patients with esophageal squamous cell carcinoma, and 970 matched patients with gastric cardia adenocarcinoma were included to compare the incidence of GERD symptoms. Patients with esophageal adenocarcinoma were divided into two groups according to the presence and absence of GERD symptoms. The differences in clinicopathological characteristics and p53 expression between the two groups were compared by chi-square test, and the differences in survival between the two groups were compared by landmark analysis. Results The incidence of GERD symptoms increased successively in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma, esophageal adenocarcinoma, and gastric cardia adenocarcinoma. In patients with esophageal adenocarcinoma, the proportions of male, less than 65 years old, lower thoracic tumors, tumors without squamous cell carcinoma, poorly differentiation, early tumors (stage 0-I), and p53-positive tumors in the group with GERD symptoms were higher than those in the group without GERD symptoms; moreover, the long-term survival (≥15 years) was better. Conclusion GERD symptom is an important clinical sign of esophageal adenocarcinoma. It is closely related to specific clinicopathological characteristics, p53 overexpression, and good long-term prognosis.

With the increasing pressure from society, work, and family, the number of patients with mental disorders such as depression and anxiety in China is on the rise. Human psychology, like the body, is divided into three states, including health, sub-health, and illness. However, in the early stages of changes in mental health status, most people are unable to detect it in a timely manner, which to some extent promotes the occurrence and progression of diseases. Psychological flexibility, as the cornerstone of mental health, is an important indicator for early assessment of mental health. This paper aims to elaborate on the concept, content, and measurement tools of psychological flexibility, explore the research status and development problems at home and abroad, and provide reference for promoting clinical psychological treatment and nursing care in China.

Objective:To investigate the effect of capsaicin on lipopolysaccharide(LPS)-induced microglial inflammatory response by modulating silent mating type information regulation 2 homolog 1(SIRT1)/high mobility group box-1 protein(HMGB1)/nuclear factor κB(NF-κB)signaling pathway.Methods:BV2 mouse microglia were cultured in vitro,and pretreated with capsaicin(10 μmol/L),SIRT1 inhibitor EX527(100 μmol/L),capsaicin+EX527(10 μmol/L capsaicin+100 μmol/L EX527)for 3 hours,and then treated with LPS(1 μg/ml)for 24 hours,the corresponding groups were LPS group,LPS+capsaicin group,LPS+EX527 group,and LPS+capsaicin+EX527 group,a normal cultured control group(Control)was also set up.Morphological changes of BV2 cells in each group were observed under a microscope;CCK-8 method was used to detect the viability of BV2 cells in each group;immunofluo-rescence staining was applied to detect the positive expressions of ionic calcium adaptor protein(Iba-1)and the polarization of M1(positive for CD16/32)/M2(positive for CD206)subtypes in BV2 cells in each group;ELISA was applied to detect levels of inflamma-tory factors in BV2 cells in each group;Western blot and co-immunoprecipitation were applied to detect expression of SIRT1/HMGB1/NF-κB signaling pathway-related proteins in each group.Results:Compared with Control group,BV2 cells in LPS group were atro-phied,with shortened processes,the cell viability,and levels of IL-1β,TNF-α and IL-6 were increased,Iba-1 positive expression of BV2 cells and M1 type BV2 cells were increased,while expression of SIRT1 protein was decreased,expressions of acetylated(ace)-HMGB1 protein,cytoplasmic HMGB1 protein and nuclear NF-κB protein were increased(P<0.05);after capsaicin pretreatment,the above conditions were improved,and the M2 type BV2 cells were increased;adding EX527 pretreatment on the basis of capsaicin pre-treatment,the above conditions were all aggravated.Conclusion:Capsaicin can inhibit the inflammatory response induced by LPS-in-duced BV2 cell activation,which may be achieved by modulating the SIRT1/HMGB1/NF-κB signaling pathway.

Objective:To explore the association between cognitive function and the level of gamma-amino-butyric acid(GABA)in anterior cingulate cortex(ACC)before and after treatment in patients with major depres-sion disorder.Methods:Totally 31 medication-naive patients with major depression disorder meeting the criteria of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders,Fifth Edition(DSM-5)and 33 normal controls were col-lected.Each eligible patient received treatment with selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor agents for 8 weeks.The MATRICS Consensus Cognitive Battery(MCCB)was used to evaluate the cognitive function.By means of 1H magnetic resonance spectroscopy,anterior cingulate cortex GABA concentrations were measured.Results:At base-line,the concentration of ACC GABA relative to water(GABA+/W)was lower in the patient group than in the control group(P＜0.05)and increased after treatment(P＜0.05).ACC GABA+/W was negatively associated with verbal learning and visual memory score in patient group at baseline(correlation coefficient and P value were r=-0.40,P＜0.05;r=-0.42,P＜0.05,respectively).The ACC GABA+/W difference resulted of treatment in patient group was positively associated with the difference of working memory score and the difference of reasoning and problem-solving score(correlation coefficient and P value were r=0.58,P＜0.05;r=0.66,P＜0.05,respec-tively).Conclusion:The cognitive dysfunction of patients with major depression disorder may not be related to the degree of depression and anxiety.And improvement of cognitive function may be associated with increase of ACC GABA concentrations.

Objective:To investigate the characteristics of 18F-FDG and 18F-9-fluoropropyl-(+ )-dihydrotetrabenazine (FP-(+ )-DTBZ; short for DTBZ) brain vesicular monoamine transporter type 2 (VMAT2) PET/CT imaging and analyze its clinical diagnostic value in Parkinson′s disease (PD) patients with or without rapid eye movement sleep behaviour disorder (RBD). Methods:From July 2022 to June 2023, 50 patients clinically confirmed with primary PD who underwent 18F-FDG and 18F-DTBZ PET/CT imaging in the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University were prospectively collected. Among them, 18 patients with PD accompanied by RBD (PD-RBD(+ ) group; 16 males, 2 females, age (59.2±9.3) years); 32 patients without RBD (PD-RBD(-) group; 16 males, 16 females, age (57.7±10.2) years). Moreover, 10 healthy controls matched with the age of PD patients were included (5 males, 5 females, age (60.3±9.6) years). 18F-DTBZ specific uptake ratio (SUR) of bilateral striatum, caudate nucleus, anterior putamen, posterior putamen, nucleus accumbens, substantia nigra and other brain regions were obtained with occipital cortex as the reference region. Striatal anterior-posterior gradient and other related semi-quantitative indicators were calculated according to the corresponding formula. One-way analysis of variance (the least significant difference (LSD)- t test), Kruskal-Wallis rank sum test (Bonferroni correction), independent-sample t test and Mann-Whitney U test were used to analyze the data. Pearson correlation and Spearman rank correlation analyses were used to evaluate the correlations. ROC curve analysis was also performed. The differences in global glucose metabolism in two groups were compared using statistical parametric mapping (SPM). Results:PD-RBD(+ ) group had a significantly lower Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) or PD Sleep Scale (PDSS) score than PD-RBD(-) group ( z values: -3.12, -3.08, both P<0.01), and its contralateral striatal anterior-posterior gradient of the predominantly affected limbs was significantly lower than that in PD-RBD(-) group ( t=-2.73, P=0.009). SPM analysis showed that the glucose metabolism in the contralateral prefrontal lobe was higher than that in the PD-RBD (-) group ( t values: 3.11-3.57, all P<0.001). 18F-DTBZ SUR in the bilateral striatum, caudate nucleus, anterior putamen, posterior putamen, nucleus accumbens, substantia nigra were considerably lower in both groups compared to the healthy control group ( F values: 6.24-147.61, H values: 8.66-24.43, all P<0.05; post-hoc: LSD- t test, Bonferroni correction, all P<0.01). In the PD-RBD(-) group, contralateral striatal anterior-posterior gradient were negatively correlated with unified PD Rating Scale (UPDRS) score and modified Hoehn-Yahr (mH-Y) stage ( r=-0.35, P=0.048; rs=-0.39, P=0.026). The AUC for distinguishing PD-RBD(+ ) and PD-RBD(-) with a contralateral striatal anterior-posterior gradient was 0.706 (95% CI: 0.562-0.851, P=0.016), with the sensitivity and specificity of 59.4%(19/32) and 16/18, respectively. Conclusions:The decrease of contralateral striatal anterior-posterior gradient of VMAT2 is more obvious in patients with PD-RBD(+ ), and there are differences in brain metabolism between the two groups, suggesting that there may be different neuropathological changes and different pathophysiological mechanisms between PD patients with and without RBD. 18F-DTDZ PET/CT can provide imaging basis for the differential diagnosis of the disease subtypes.

Objective To summarise a clinical experience of nursing care for 3 children who were treated with ECMO for sepsis and complicated with fulminant myocarditis.Methods Clinical data in nursing cares for 3 children treated with ECMO for sepsis and complicated with fulminant myocarditis were collected and analysed,with the spotted difficulties in nursing care and proposed coping strategies.Results The 3 children survived and were transferred out of the(pediatric intensive care unit,PICU)with stable vital signs and haemodynamics after emergency treatment with ECMO and continuous renal replacement therapy(CRRT).Conclusion Children with sepsis leading to myocardial depression and subsequent heart failure require close observation of the changes and consequently specialised cares after having initiated an ECMO in emergency treatment.This includes ensuring proper fixation of the cannulas,managing anticoagulation,monitoring the speed,flow rate and pressure of ECMO,management of body temperature,skin care,sedation and pain,as well as prevention of complications.These nursing care measures would improve the survival rate after the treatment of ECMO.

Thirty refractory relapsed acute myeloid leukemia (R/R AML) patients who received salvage allo-HSCT with MeCBA conditioning regimen from January 2018 to June 2022 at Henan Cancer Hospital were included, and their clinical data were reviewed. There were 16 males and 14 females among the 30 patients with a median age of 37 (16-53) years. There were 3 sibling allograft donor transplants, 1 unrelated donor transplant, and 26 haplotype transplants. The median course of pre-transplant chemotherapy was 4 (3-22). The time of neutrophil engraftment was 14 (9-22) days and 18 (10-40) days for platelet. The 30-day cumulative incidence of neutrophil engraftment was 100% and the 100-day cumulative incidence of platelet engraftment was 96.7% (95% CI 85.4% -97.5% ). 22 (73.3% ) patients experienced grade 1-2 gastrointestinal reactions, and there was no grade 3-4 organ toxicity. With a median follow-up of 37.1 months, the overall survival (OS) rate, event-free survival (EFS) rate, cumulative recurrence rate (CIR), and non-recurrence mortality (NRM) rate at 3 years after transplantation were 70.0% (95% CI 50.3% -83.1% ), 65.3% (95% CI 44.8% -79.8% ), 21.2% (95% CI 9.2% -44.4% ) and 16.7% (95% CI 7.3% -35.5% ), respectively.

The prevalence of pathological myopia(PM)is increasing year by year.A series of fundus lesions seconda-ry to PM is one of the irreversible blinding eye diseases,which greatly reduces the quality of life of patients.The main fun-dus manifestations of PM include myopic maculopathy and posterior scleral staphyloma.In recent years,the continuous de-velopment of imaging technology has helped doctors to have a more comprehensive understanding of PM and its severity grading in clinical diagnosis and treatment.The application of multimodal imaging technology provides a sound basis for the accurate diagnosis,progress monitoring,treatment strategy formulation and efficacy evaluation of PM.Therefore,this pa-per reviews the multimodal imaging diagnosis of PM.
