Objective To investigate the molecular mechanism by which salidroside inhibits the proliferation of gastric cancer(GC)cells through upregulation of miR-1343-3p.Methods RNA databases were used to screen for mRNAs associated with tumor proliferation and with miR-1343-3p,and exhibiting significant changes in their expression levels after salidroside treatment of human GC cells.Gene matching and immunoprecipitation of RNA-binding proteins were conducted to analyze the association between miR-1343-3p and SOX18.Immunocytochemistry was performed to determine the localization of SOX18 protein.The effect of salidroside on the proliferation of human GC cells(MGC-803 and AGS)was determined by CCK-8 assay.Human GC cells were divided into a blank control group and low-and high-dose salidroside groups.The expression of miR-1343-3p and SOX18 mRNA was measured by real-time quantitative fluorescence PCR(qPCR).The protein expression of SOX18 was measured by Western blot.GC cells were co-transfected with miR-1343-3p mimic and miR-1343-3p inhibitor,respectively,via LipofectamineTM 2000 liposomes.The expression of miR-1343-3p and SOX18 mRNA was measured by qPCR,and the protein expression of SOX18 was measured by Western blot.Results Through bioinformatic analysis,SOX18 was identified as a downstream target of miR-1343-3p.Gene alignment confirmed the presence of specific binding sites between the two genes,and immunoprecipitation of RNA-binding proteins validated the targeting relationship between them(P<0.05).Immunocytochemistry demonstrated the nuclear localization of SOX18 protein.CCK-8 assay findings demonstrated that salidroside significantly inhibited the proliferation of GC cells in a time-and dose-dependent manner.Compared with the blank control group,salidroside-treated GC cells showed decreased expression of both SOX18 mRNA and protein(P<0.05)and an increased miR-1343-3p expression(P<0.05).Compared with the control group,GC cells in the miR-1343-3p mimic group exhibited increased expression of miR-1343-3p and decreased expression of SOX18 mRNA and protein.In contrast,GC cells in the miR-1343-3p inhibitor group showed decreased expression of miR-1343-3p and increased expression of SOX18 mRNA and protein(all P<0.05).Conclusion Salidroside may inhibit the proliferation of GC cells by regulating the miR-1343-3p/SOX18 signaling axis and these regulators may present new potential therapeutic targets or biomarkers for gastric cancer.

This paper interprets the disease name related to bi （痹） disease in traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） from the perspective of micropathological phenotypes in knee osteoarthritis （KOA）. By systematically reviewing classical TCM literature on the pathogenesis and clinical features of different subtypes such as damp-retention bi， bone bi， and tendon bi， and integrating these with current research on pathological subtypes of KOA including the synovitis type， cartilage-meniscus type， and subchondral bone type， the study explores the correlation between traditional disease terms and modern micropathological phenotypes. The author proposes subtype classifications of damp-retention bi corresponding to synovial inflammation， bone bi related to abnormal subchondral bone remodeling， and tendon bi representing cartilage and meniscus degeneration. This approach provides a microscopic biological explanation for TCM syndrome differentiation and offers new perspectives for advancing integrative diagnostic and therapeutic strategies in both Chinese and western medicine.

Objective:To evaluate the efficacy of almonertinib,a third-generation epidermal growth factor receptor-tyrosine kinase inhibitor(EGFR-TKI),as a first-line treatment for patients with EGFR-mutated advanced non-small cell lung cancer(NSCLC)in the real-world clinical practise,and to systematically analyze the independent risk factors influencing their prognosis.Methods:This retrospective cohort study enrolled 73 patients with EGFR-mutated advanced NSCLC who received first-line treatment with aumolertinib from April 1,2020 to December 31,2021.Survival curves were generated by using the Kaplan-Meier method,and intergroup comparisons were performed via log-rank test.Univariate and multivariate analyses of prognostic factors were conducted by using the COX proportional hazards regression model,with a focus on identifying prognostic factors in the subgroup of baseline brain metastases.Results:Among 73 patients,the median progression-free survival(mPFS)was 19.4 months,and the disease control rate(DCR)was 93.2%.Multivariate COX regression analysis revealed that central nervous system(CNS)metastasis status,EGFR mutation subtype,ECOG performance status(PS)score,and gender might be independent risk factors for PFS.Among 33 patients with baseline brain metastases,combined almonertinib with radiotherapy or bevacizumab,maximum diameter of brain metastases(≥3 cm),and ECOG PS score might be independent risk factors of PFS.Conclusion:This first real-world study confirms that aumolertinib demonstrates favorable efficacy as first-line treatment for EGFR-mutated locally advanced or metastatic NSCLC patients,aligning with findings from phase Ⅲ clinical trials.For patients in subgroup of baseline brain metastases,combining almonertinib with radiotherapy or bevacizumab is recommended to optimize outcomes.

In the past, aortic dissection, aortic aneurysm, and other aortic diseases, primarily rely on surgical intervention. In recent years, due to breakthroughs in materials science, endovascular therapy has become the first choice for the surgical treatment of most aortic diseases. However, traditional endovascular repair cannot fully meet the clinical needs for certain complex lesions involving the aortic arch and the originations of visceral arteries. The emergence of physician-modified stent technology has brought new hope for the treatment of complex aortic diseases. This article provides a detailed introduction to the concept, development, technical characteristics, and applications of physician-modified stents in the treatment of aortic diseases, analyzing their advantages and limitations. Physician-modified stents serve as a powerful complement to traditional endovascular interventions and commercial branched stents, yet further research and refinement are still required.

Objective:To compare the efficacy and safety of Rotarex mechanical thrombectomy (Rotarex) combined with drug-coated balloon (DCB) versus percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA) combined with DCB in the treatment of femoropopliteal artery in-stent restenosis (ISR).Methods:A multicenter, prospective, randomized controlled trial was conducted. 46 patients with femoropopliteal artery ISR admitted to five hospitals (Beijing Friendship Hospital, Capital Medical University; Beijing Chaoyang Hospital, Capital Medical University; Beijing Jishuitan Hospital, Capital Medical University; Xuanwu Hospital, Capital Medical University; Beijing Tsinghua Changgung Hospital, School of Clinical Medicine, Tsinghua University) from July 2020 to June 2024 were enrolled. Patients were randomly divided into the Rotarex+ DCB group ( n=24) and the PTA+ DCB group ( n=22) using a random number table. The clinical data of the two groups were collected, including clinical characteristics, Fontaine classification, stent placement location, stent duration, and lesion length. The primary endpoint was the target blood vessel patency rate at 6 and 12 months postoperatively; the secondary endpoints included improvement in clinical symptoms (Fontaine classification), rate of reintervention, and safety indicators. Measurement data were expressed as mean±standard deviation ( ± s), and the t-test was used for comparison between groups; count data were expressed as the number of cases and percentages, and intergroup comparisons were performed using the Chi-test or Fisher exact probability method. Results:At 12 months postoperatively, the target blood vessel patency rate in the Rotarex+ DCB group was significantly higher than that in the PTA+ DCB group (81.8% vs 45.5%, P=0.012), and the proportion of patients in Fontaine classification stage I was also higher (86.4% vs 45.5%, P=0.004). The results at the 6-month follow-up were consistent (target blood vessel patency rate: 87.0% vs 59.1%, P=0.035). In terms of safety, no severe complications such as arterial rupture, amputation, or procedure-related death occurred during the perioperative period in either group. During the postoperative follow-up, no amputation or procedure-related deaths occurred in either group. Conclusion:For the treatment of femoropopliteal artery ISR, Rotarex mechanical thrombectomy combined with DCB is significantly superior to PTA+ DCB in terms of 12-month target blood vessel patency rate and improvement of clinical symptoms, with comparable safety.

In recent years， hyperuricemia （HUA） has shown a rapidly increasing incidence and tends to occur in increasingly young people， with a wide range of cardiac， renal， joint， and cancerous hazards and all-cause mortality associations. Western medicine treatment has limitations such as large liver and kidney damage， medication restriction， and easy recurrence. The intestine is the major extra-renal excretion pathway for uric acid （UA）， and the intestinal microecology can be regulated to promote UA degradation. It offers great potential to develop UA-lowering strategies that target the intestinal microecology， which are promising to provide safer and more effective therapeutic approaches. Traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） can treat HUA via multiple targets and multiple pathways from a holistic view， with low toxicity and side effects. Studies have shown that intestinal microecology is a crucial target for TCM in the treatment of HUA. However， its specific mechanism of action has not been fully elucidated. Focusing on the key role of intestinal microecology in HUA， this review explores the relationship between intestinal microecology and HUA in terms of intestinal flora， intestinal metabolites， intestinal UA transporters， and intestinal barriers. Furthermore， we summarize the research progress in TCM treatment of HUA by targeting the intestinal microecology， with the aim of providing references for the development of TCM intervention strategies for HUA and the direction of future research.

Objective:To compare the clinical effect of femoral neck system (FNS) and cannulated compression screw internal fixation in the treatment of femoral neck fractures in young and middle-aged patients.Methods:The databases of CNKI, Wanfang Data Knowledge Service Platform, VIP, Chinese Medical Journal Full-text Database, PubMed, Embase, Web of Science and Cochrane Library were searched. The intraoperative blood loss, intraoperative fluoroscopy times, hospital stay, fracture healing time, Harris hip function score, partial weight-bearing time and complication rate were extracted to compare the clinical efficacy of the two surgical methods. Stata18.0 statistical software was used for meta-analysis.Results:A total of 699 patients from 11 studies were included in this study. Compared with cannulated compression screw internal fixation, the FNS had a shorter operation time [ WMD= -8.54, 95% CI(-14.87, -2.21), P=0.008], fewer intraoperative fluoroscopy times[ WMD= -8.29, 95% CI(-11.45, -5.12), P< 0.001], a shorter fracture healing time [ WMD=-1.59, 95% CI(-2.49, -0.68), P=0.001], a shorter partial weight-bearing time[ WMD=-3.45, 95% CI(-4.43, -2.46), P<0.001], a lower incidence of postoperative complications [ RR=0.41, 95% CI(0.22, 0.76), P= 0.004], and a lower incidence of postoperative nonunion [ RR=0.40, 95% CI(0.18, 0.88), P=0.022]. Meanwhile, the FNS group had more intraoperative blood loss [ WMD=9.53, 95% CI(2.70, 16.35), P=0.006] and a higher Harris hip function score at the last follow-up [ WMD=3.50, 95% CI(2.11, 4.89), P<0.001] than the cannulated compression screw internal fixation group. There were no statistically significant differences in the length of hospital stay [ WMD=-0.48, 95% CI(-0.82, -0.13), P=0.092] or the incidence of femoral head necrosis [ RR=0.57, 95% CI(0.26, 1.24), P=0.159] between the two groups. Conclusion:Compared with cannulated compression screw internal fixation in the treatment of femoral neck fracture in young and middle-aged patients, FNS has more intraoperative blood loss, but it has more advantages in operation time, intraoperative blood loss, intraoperative fluoroscopy times, postoperative fracture healing time, Harris hip function score, partial weight-bearing time, postoperative nonunion rate and postoperative complications rate.

This study aims to analyze the screening results and epidemiological characteristics of prostate cancer (PCa) among elderly males in the rural areas of Songjiang, Shanghai City, through the implementation of a preliminary prostate-specific antigen (PSA) screening based on a community-linkage model, and to explore an effective screening approach. A retrospective observational study design was employed to collect data from residents who underwent PSA screening at Songjiang Hospital affiliated to Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine, in collaboration with multiple community health service centers in Songjiang District, Shanghai City, between June 2022 and June 2024, through free clinics and annual health examinations. Prostate biopsy was recommended for individuals with total PSA (tPSA) levels >10 ng/ml and those with 4 ng/ml≤tPSA≤10 ng/ml and abnormal free-to-total PSA (f/tPSA) ratios. Clinical characteristics of detected PCa patients were analyzed. Follow-up was conducted through phone calls and home visits by family doctors, coupled with enhanced health education. The results indicated that a total of 17 198 residents participated in the screening, among which 2 234 (12.99%) had tPSA levels between 4 ng/ml and 10 ng/ml, and 257 (1.49%) had tPSA levels >10 ng/ml. Ultimately, 417 residents underwent prostate biopsy, with 171 being diagnosed with PCa, yielding a positive biopsy rate of 41.00% and a PCa detection rate of 0.99%. The predominant pathological subtype among PCa patients was adenocarcinoma (168 cases, 98.24%). Of the 146 PCa patients who received treatment, the majority were classified as intermediate or high-risk (124 cases, 84.93%). Furthermore, with the optimization of the screening model, there was a significant increase in the proportion of subsequent outpatient visits. In conclusion, the community-linkage-based PSA screening model demonstrated high effectiveness in screening for PCa among elderly males in the rural areas of Songjiang, Shanghai City. Epidemiological findings revealed that PCa patients in this region are primarily composed of intermediate and high-risk groups, highlighting the need for intensified early screening and health education.

Objective To explore relationship between glucose metabolism and neonatal weight in high-risk gestational diabetes melli-tus(GDM).Method A retrospective study was conducted on 779 pregnant women who underwent prenatal examinations at Tongzhou Maternity and Child Health Care Hospital in Beijing from March to June 2022.The data on pre-pregnancy weight,mid-and late-preg-nancy glycated albumin(GA)and glycated hemoglobin(HbA1c),pre-delivery weight,gestational weight gain,and neonatal birth weight were collected.A GDM risk assessment model was established using multivariate logistic regression to classify pregnant women into high-risk and low-risk groups for GDM,followed by separate management strategies.Regression discontinuity(RD)analysis was applied to evaluate the relationship between gestational glucose metabolism status and neonatal birth weight.Results Among the 779 pregnant women,the overall incidence of macrosomia was 7.32％.The high-risk GDM group exhibited significantly higher pre-pregnan-cy weight,late-pregnancy HbA1c,and GA levels compared to the low-risk group(all P＜0.001).Neonatal birth weight in the high-risk group was significantly higher than that in the low-risk group(P＜0.05),with a significantly increased macrosomia incidence(13.55％vs 5.77％,P＜0.05).RD analysis revealed a jump reduction of 199.59 g(P=0.029)in neonatal birth weight at the risk score thresh-old.Conclusion Lifestyle glucose metabolism management in high-risk GDM pregnant women may effectively reduce neonatal birth weight,mitigated the trend of excessive gestational weight gain,and improved late-pregnancy HbA1c and GA levels,providing evi-dence-based support for maternal and child health services.

We collected the positive serum of Echinococcus granulosus infection in sheep,an inter-mediate host with strong immune response,and used healthy serum as negative control,purified the serum and target protein to capture and enrich the corresponding antigen by immunoprecipita-tion,and obtained target protein-antibody-target protein complex.Mass spectrometry strategies were combined to screen and identify specific antigens associated with Echinococcus granulosus,and the proteins with the highest peptide coverage were analyzed bioinformatically using online prediction software.The results showed that 133 Echinococcus granulosus related proteins were i-dentified by IP-MS.Among them,one protein with peptide coverage≥70％was actin Ⅱ,and three proteins with peptide coverage between 30％to 40％were Ton B box domain containing protein,NADH dehydrogenase(ubiquinone)1 α-subcomplex 2(NADH dehydrogenase[ubiquinone])and lactic dehydrogenase.There were six proteins with 20％to 30％peptide coverage,namely,spli-cing factor 3B subunit 5,tumor protein D52,expressed conserved protein,NADH dehydrogenase(ubiquinone)1 alpha subcomplex 7,inosine-5'-monophosphate dehydrogenase,and aldo keto re-ductase family 1 member B4.Bioinformatics analysis revealed that actin protein has no signal pep-tide,it is probably a non-secretory protein and is subcellularly localized to the cytoskeleton,six op-timal potential antigenic epitopes are present,and the secondary and tertiary structures are consist-ently dominated by α-helices and irregular convolutions.The results indicate that immunoprecipita-tion-mass spectrometry is a high-throughput,simple,rapid and effective method for screening and identifying fine-grained Echinococcus granulosus antigens,which can provide a basis for screening specific molecules for serodiagnostic markers in intermediate host sheep and for the development of novel diagnostic techniques for hydatid diseases.
