Objective:To explore the diagnostic value of transvaginal color Doppler sonography (TVCDS) combined with serum allograft inflammatory factor-1 (AIF-1) and pyruvate kinase M2 type (PKM2) in cervical cancer.Methods:From Jan. 2022 to Jun. 2024, 168 patients with early cervical cancer who visited Taizhou Central Hospital were regarded as the cervical cancer group, and 96 patients with cervical precancerous lesions were regarded as the precancerous lesion group. All patients underwent TVCDS examination to obtain parameters such as peak systolic velocity (PSV), end diastolic velocity (EDV), and resistance index (RI). ELISA method was used to detect serum AIF-1 and PKM2 levels. Kappa test was used to analyze the consistency between different diagnostic methods and pathological results. ROC curve was used to analyze the diagnostic value of serum AIF-1 and PKM2 levels for cervical cancer.Results:The cervical cancer group had manifestly higher proportions of irregular morphology, unclear boundaries, low echo ratio, and levels of PSV, EDV, AIF-1, and PKM2 than precancerous lesion group, and manifestly lower RI than precancerous lesion group ( P<0.05). The consistency analysis between TVCDS diagnosis of cervical cancer and pathological results showed a Kappa value of 0.674 ( P<0.05). The serum levels of AIF-1 and PKM2 in cervical cancer patients with a maximum tumor diameter of ≥ 4 cm, low differentiation, and vaginal infiltration were manifestly higher than those in patients with a maximum tumor diameter of < 4 cm, medium/high differentiation, and non vaginal infiltration ( P<0.05). The AUC of AIF-1 and PKM2 in the diagnosis of cervical cancer was 0.824 and 0.816, respectively, with diagnostic thresholds of 81.21 ng/L and 29.26 ng/mL. The consistency analysis of TVCDS combined with serum AIF-1 and PKM2 in the diagnosis of cervical cancer and pathological results showed a Kappa value of 0.918 ( P<0.05). The negative predictive value, accuracy, and sensitivity of TVCDS combined with serum AIF-1 and PKM2 in the diagnosis of cervical cancer were higher than those of each indicator alone, and the positive predictive value and specificity were higher than those of AIF-1 alone ( P<0.05) . Conclusion:TVCDS combined with serum AIF-1 and PKM2 has high accuracy and sensitivity in the diagnosis of cervical cancer, and their combination can serve as a potential method for clinical diagnosis of cervical cancer.

Robotic surgery, as an increasingly widespread application in the treatment of gastric and colorectal cancer, still faces obvious discrepancies in recommendations, indications, and evidence strength across existing guidelines. This study systematically analyzed 31 relevant guidelines and consensus statements (retrieved from Chinese and English databases from January 2010 to May 2025) from two dimensions: feasibility (effectiveness, safety, etc.) and training quality control.The results showed that colorectal cancer guidelines had a higher proportion (4 guidelines) of "clear recommendations" for robotic surgery, while gastric cancer guidelines predominantly presented "conditional recommendations" or no recommendations. In the training and quality control dimension, although structured suggestions received positive recommendations, more than half were based on low or very low-quality evidence. Evidence mapping indicated insufficient matching between "case-specific recommendations" and evidence grades in the feasibility dimension, while training processes emphasized the importance of standardized systems and team collaboration.The study highlights the existing heterogeneity in evidence-based guidelines for robotic gastrointestinal surgery, with colorectal cancer demonstrating a more mature evidence base and gastric cancer showing notable evidence gaps. It is recommended that future guideline development should strengthen the consistency between recommendation grades and evidence levels, promote high-quality research in upper gastrointestinal surgery, and improve surgeon training and certification systems to facilitate standardized clinical translation of robotic gastrointestinal surgery.

Objective To evaluate the short-term efficacy and safety of percutaneous liver puncture for local management of portal vein thrombosis(PVT).Methods Variations in thrombus,blood flow,and laboratory examination results were observed before and after percutaneous liver puncture in 197 patients with PVT,and the occurrence of comorbidities was recorded and followed up for one year after treatment.Results After treatment,the thrombus in the main portal vein vessels almostly disappeared in 119 patients(60.41％)with PVT,the thrombus had a significant reduction in 57 patients(28.93％),and the thrombus had a smaller change or an increase in 21 patients(10.66％);146 patients(74.11％)had smooth blood flow in the main portal vein vessels,29 patients(14.72％)showed significant improvement in blood flow,and 22 patients(11.17％)showed no significant improvement or worsening of blockage.The mean portal venous pressure was significantly lower than that before treatment(P＜0.001);thrombin time,activated partial thromboplastin time,and prothrombin time were prolonged compared to those before thrombolysis(P＜0.001),and fibrinogen were reduced compared to those before thrombolysis(P＜0.001).A total of 35 patients(17.77％)occured comorbidities during treatment.One year after treatment,196 patients(99.49％)with PVT survived,of which thrombus essentially disappeared in 141(71.94％),thrombus stabilized(or decreased)in 42(21.43％),and thrombus increased in 13(6.63％).Conclusion percutaneous liver puncture for local management of PVT is effective and reliable in the short-term and requires standardized management of the entire process.

Objective:To explore the clinical effect of cosmetic reconstruction for partial defect of distal segment of digits.Methods:Form January 2018 to January 2021, the Department of Hand Surgery of Institute for Hygiene of Ordnance Industry(The 521 Hospital of Weapon Industry) admitted 129 patients with partial defect of distal segment of thumb or fingers with phalange or tendon exposure. The patients were 111 males and 18 females with an average age of 34(17-59) years old. The sizes of nailbed defect were 0.4 cm×1.1 cm-1.8 cm×2.0 cm, the length of phalange defect was 0.4-1.8 cm, and the sizes of the soft tissue defect were 1.6 cm×1.8 cm-3.2 cm×4.8 cm. Great toe tissue flaps were used to reconstruct the partial defect of distal segment of thumb or fingers after debridement. Wounds of fibular flap of great toe in 77 cases were directly sutured in 17 patients. The donor sites in rest 60 great toes were narrowed first and then repaired with skin grafts in 10 cases, with artificial dermis in 28 cases and with transverse V-Y advancement flaps of ipsilateral great toes for 22 cases. Forty-nine of 52 donor site wounds for hallux toenail flap were repaired with artificial dermis and 3 with free peroneal artery perforator flaps. The method was outpatient follow-up. Postoperative follow-up lasted until July 2022. The check-items for follow-up included: occurrence of necrosis, appearance, shape and texture of the flap, appearance of the reconstructed nails, TPD of the reconstructed digit pulps, tolerance to cold on the scars of flaps, flexion and extension of the reconstructed digits. The healing time of phalanges of the reconstructed digits was evaluated by X-rays. The appearance, sensation, the tolerance to cold of great toe and the movement of donor foot were also assessed.Results:Postoperative follow-up lasted for 18 to 24 months, with an average of 21 months. A total of 128 flaps survived. Necrosis occurred in 1 fibular hallux flap, the necrosis was cured with a reverse digital proper artery island flap. Thereafter, all flaps healed well. The appearance, shape, texture and nails of reconstructed digits were close to the contralateral digits. The reconstructed thumb and finger were evaluated according to Zook, 127 cases were excellent and 2 cases were good.TPD of the pulps of the reconstructed digits was 4-10 mm. The mean score of the Vancouver scar scale(VSS) was 0.6 for scars of the reconstructed digits. The mean score of the Visual analog scale(VAS) was 0.3 for the tolerance to cold. Flexion and extension function recovered well in all the reconstructed digits. According to the Evaluation Criteria of Upper limb Function Hand Surgery Society of Chinese Medical Association, the function of hand was excellent in 127 cases and 1 in each of good and fair. X-rays of all digits showed the phalange healing of the reconstructed digits, with an average healing time of 2 months after surgery, without phalange resorption, infection, nonunion nor stress fracture. There was no difference between the length of the donor great toe and the contralateral toe, except the donor site of the great toe nail root. There was no significant visual difference between the appearance of the donor great toe and the contralateral toe. TPD of the pulps of donor great toe was 4-8 mm. The mean score of the VSS was 1.4 for scars in the donor great toe. The mean score of the VAS was 0.7 for the tolerance to cold of the donor great toe. There was no stress fracture at donor site, and the functions of donor foot were not affected when walking, running, jumping and tiptoeing in all patients.Conclusion:It is an ideal method for reconstructing a partial defect of distal segment of digit by great toe flap. It can not only reconstruct the partial defect of distal segment of the digit, but also results in a good appearance and satisfactory functions of the reconstructed digit. Damage to the donor site is minimum. The length of the donor great toe is unchanged, and it has little impact on sensation and appearance of the donor great toe. Meanwhile, there is no adverse effect on walking, running and jumping with the donor foot.

Objective:To investigate the effects of 3-methyladenine(3-MA)on extracellular matrix deposition in early diabetic nephropathy(DN)and its mechanism.Methods:A streptozotocin(STZ)-induced type 1 diabetes mouse model was used, and the mice were divided into vehicle control group, diabetes group(STZ group), 3-MA group, and chloroquine(CQ)group, 8 mice in each group. After 6 weeks of intervention, both kidneys were harvested, and the kidney-to-body weight ratio was recorded. Western blotting was performed to detect protein expressions of renal cortex fibronectin, α-smooth muscle actin(α-SMA), LC3, Beclin 1, p62, and vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF). Immunohistochemistry was used to observe kidney fibronectin staining. Bioinformatics analysis was conducted on shared genes between diabetic nephropathy(DN)gene targets and 3-MA predicted gene targets.Results:Both 3-MA and CQ exhibited certain hypoglycemic effects in diabetic mice. Compared to the STZ group, the kidney-to-body weight ratio decreased in the 3-MA group( P<0.05). Western blotting showed that 3-MA reduced the expression of renal cortex matrix-related proteins fibronectin and α-SMA in diabetic mice( P<0.05 or P<0.01). Immunohistochemistry also revealed that 3-MA reduced fibronectin staining in the kidneys of diabetic mice. Both 3-MA and CQ inhibited the protein expression of renal cortex Beclin 1 in diabetic mice(both P<0.05), while 3-MA increased the expression of renal cortex p62( P<0.05). Bioinformatics analysis indicated a connection between shared genes of DN gene targets and 3-MA predicted gene targets with the VEGF signaling pathway. Western blotting results further showed that 3-MA reduced renal cortex VEGF expression in diabetic mice( P<0.01). Conclusion:3-MA can alleviate extracellular matrix deposition in the kidneys of early DN mice by inhibiting the VEGF signaling pathway.
