Objective:To compare the clinical efficacy of laparoscopic pelvic floor autologous fascia integral repair based on membrane anatomy versus transperineal proctosigmoidectomy (Altemeier procedure) in the treatment of patients with complete rectal prolapse (CRP).Methods:This study employed a retrospective observational cohort design. Clinical data were collected from a total of 55 CRP patients who underwent surgical treatment between January 2018 and July 2023, including 25 patients from Luoyang Central Hospital, affiliated with Zhengzhou University, and 30 patients from the 989th Hospital of the Joint Logistics Support Force & Military Anorectal Surgery Research Institute. All patients undergoing surgery met the following criteria: aged ≥ 18 years, rectal prolapse protruding outside the anus, prolapse length > 5 cm with inability to self-reduce, conforming to the diagnostic criteria for CRP, and being first-time treated patients. Twenty-seven patients who underwent the Altemeier procedure between January 2018 and March 2021 were assigned to the Altemeier group; 28 patients who underwent laparoscopic pelvic floor autologous fascia integral repair based on membrane anatomy between April 2021 and July 2023 were assigned to the integral repair group. The therapeutic efficacy differences between the two groups were analyzed and compared, including the CRP length (DCRP), Wexner Constipation Score, Wexner Fecal Incontinence Score, and Gastrointestinal Quality of Life Index (GIQLI) before surgery and at 6, 12, and 24 months after surgery, as well as postoperative complications and recurrence at 24 months after surgery.Results:There were no statistically significant differences between the two groups in terms of gender distribution, age, preoperative body mass index (BMI), defecation frequency, DCRP, Wexner Constipation Score, Wexner Fecal Incontinence Score, and GIQLI (all P>0.05). All patients completed the surgery. The length of hospital stay and intraoperative blood loss in the integral repair group were significantly less than those in the Altemeier group (both P<0.01). At 6, 12, and 24 months after surgery, the DCRP, Wexner Constipation Score, Wexner Fecal Incontinence Score, and GIQLI in both groups significantly improved compared with the preoperative values (all P<0.001). At 6, 12, and 24 months after surgery, the CRP treatment effect, Wexner Constipation Score, Wexner Fecal Incontinence Score, and GIQLI in the integral repair group were significantly better than those in the Altemeier group (χ2=15.821, P<0.001; χ2=18.238, P<0.001; χ2 = 12.558, P=0.001; and χ2 =22.413, P<0.001, respectively). In the integral repair group, 4 patients (14.3%) developed grade I-III postoperative complications, including 2 cases of urinary retention, 1 case of anastomotic bleeding, and 1 case of anastomotic stenosis. In the Altemeier group, 11 patients (40.7%) developed grade I-III postoperative complications, including 4 cases of urinary retention, 3 cases of anastomotic bleeding, 1 case of anastomotic stenosis, 2 cases of intestinal fistula, and 1 case of fecal incontinence. The difference between the two groups was statistically significant (χ2=4.850, P=0.028). There was no recurrence of CRP in the integral repair group at 24 months after surgery, while 7 cases of CRP recurrence were observed in the Altemeier group at 24 months after surgery. The difference between the two groups was statistically significant (χ2=6.148, P=0.013). Conclusion:The autologous fascia repair technique based on membrane anatomy and the pelvic floor integral theory is superior to the transperineal Altemeier procedure in the treatment of CRP. Furthermore, it is an effective surgical method for CRP.

Objective:
To investigate the efficacy and safety of Liqingtong (LQT) granules in patients with dampness-heat hyperuricemia.
Methods:
A randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled pilot trial was conducted at the 983rd Hospital of the Joint Logistic Support Force of the People's Liberation Army from March 15, 2023, to August 10, 2023. In total, 119 participants were enrolled in this trial, and participants were given either LQT granules or placebo for 60 days based on a health education. The primary outcome was serum uric acid (SUA) level, and the secondary outcome was the traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) symptom score, measured on days 0, 30, and 60. Safety indicators, including liver function, kidney function, blood routine, glucose, blood lipid, blood pressure, and heart rate were tested on days 0 and 60 of the trial. The data were analyzed using Prism 9 software, and the significance level was set at P < .05.
Results:
Among 119 participants, six in the LQT granule group and seven in the placebo group dropped out, and 106 participants completed clinical observation. Baseline information, including SUA levels, TCM symptom scores, and other clinical characteristics, did not differ between the groups. At the end of the trial, compared with baseline values, the SUA levels in the LQT granule group decreased (P < .001), and no significant change was observed in the placebo group (P = .422); compared with the placebo group, the SUA levels decreased in the LQT granule group (P = .001). Compared with baseline values, the total TCM symptom scores in the LQT granule group decreased (P < .001), with no change in the placebo group (P = .136). Safety indicators did not differ significantly between the two groups.
Conclusion
The pilot trial demonstrated the potential of LQT granules to lower SUA levels and improve symptoms of dampness and heat.

Bone formation and deposition are initiated by sensory nerve infiltration in adaptive bone remodeling. Here, we focused on the role of Semaphorin 3A (Sema3A), expressed by sensory nerves, in mechanical loads-induced bone formation and nerve withdrawal using orthodontic tooth movement (OTM) model. Firstly, bone formation was activated after the 3rd day of OTM, coinciding with a decrease in sensory nerves and an increase in pain threshold. Sema3A, rather than nerve growth factor (NGF), highly expressed in both trigeminal ganglion and the axons of periodontal ligament following the 3rd day of OTM. Moreover, in vitro mechanical loads upregulated Sema3A in neurons instead of in human periodontal ligament cells (hPDLCs) within 24 hours. Furthermore, exogenous Sema3A restored the suppressed alveolar bone formation and the osteogenic differentiation of hPDLCs induced by mechanical overload. Mechanistically, Sema3A prevented overstretching of F-actin induced by mechanical overload through ROCK2 pathway, maintaining mitochondrial dynamics as mitochondrial fusion. Therefore, Sema3A exhibits dual therapeutic effects in mechanical loads-induced bone formation, both as a pain-sensitive analgesic and a positive regulator for bone formation.

Objective To establish a Nomogram model for assessing the risk of intestinal colonization by Carbapenem-Resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae(CRKP)to determine the specific probability of colonization and adopt individualized prevention strategies for the purpose of reducing the occurrence of colonization and secondary infection of neonatal CRKP.Methods A total of 187 neonates hospitalized between January 2021 and October 2022 and diagnosed with CRKP colonization by rectal swab/fecal culture as well drug sensitivity identification 48 h after admission were assigned to the CRKP group.Another 187 neonates without non-CRKP colonization during the same period were set as the non-CRKP group.All the data of the two groups were used for a retrospective analysis.The caret package in R 4.2.1 was used to randomly divide the 374 cases into the model group and validation group at a ratio of 3∶1.Then the glmnet package in R 4.2.1 was used to conduct a LASSO regression analysis over the data from the model group to determine the predictive factors for modeling and the rms software package was used to build a Nomogram model.The pROC and rms packages in R 4.2.1 were used to examine the data,analyzing the consistency indexes(Cindex),receiver operating characteristic curves(ROC),and area under the curves(AUC)and performing the internal and external validation of the efficacy of the Nomogram model via the calibration curves.Results LASSO regression analysis determined eight predictors from the 35 factors probably affecting neonatal CRKP colonization:gender,cesarean section,breastfeeding,nasogastric tube,enema,carbapenems,probiotics,and hospital stay.The Nomogram model constructed using these eight predictors as variables could predict CRKP colonization to a moderate extent,with the area under the ROC curve of 0.835 and 0.800 in the model and validation group,respectively.The Hos-mer-Lemeshow test showed that the predicted probability was highly consistent with the actual probability(the modeling group:P = 0.678>0.05;the validation group:P = 0.208>0.05),presenting a higher degree of fitting.Conclusion The Nomogram model containing such variables as gender,cesarean section,breastfeeding,nasogastric tube,enema,carbapenems,probiotics,and hospital stay is more effective in predicting the risk of neonatal CRKP colonization.Therefore,preventive measures should be individualized based on the colonization probability predicted by the Nomogram model in order to keep neonates from CRKP colonization and reduce the incidence of secondary CRKP infections among them.
