Objective To investigate the safety, economic benefits and psychological effects of day breast conserving surgery for breast cancer. Methods The demographic data and clinical data of breast cancer patients undergoing day (day surgery group) and ward (ward surgery group) breast conserving surgeries in West China Hospital of Sichuan University from March 2020 to June 2021 were retrospectively collected; the demographic data, clinical data, medical and related transportation costs, and preoperative and postoperative BREAST-Q scores of breast cancer patients undergoing day (day surgery group) and ward (ward surgery group) breast conserving surgery in West China Hospital of Sichuan University from June 2021 to June 2022 were prospectively collected. The safety, economic benefit, and psychological satisfaction of day surgery was analyzed. Results A total of 42 women with breast cancer were included in the retrospective study and 39 women with breast cancer were included in the prospective study. In both prospective and retrospective studies, the mean age of patients in both groups were <50 years. There were only statistical differences between the two groups in the aspects of hypertension (P=0.022), neoadjuvant chemotherapy (P=0.037) and postoperative pathological estrogen receptor (P=0.033) in the prospective study. In postoperative complications, there were no statistical differences in the surgical-related complications or anesthesia-related complications between the two groups in either the prospective study or the retrospective study (P>0.05). In terms of the overall cost, we found that the day surgery group was more economical than the ward surgery group in the prospective study (P=0.002). There were no statistical differences in postoperative psychosocical well-being, sexual well-being, satisfaction with breasts or chest condition between the two groups (P>0.05). Conclusion It is safe and reliable to carry out breast conserving surgery in day surgery center under strict management standards, which can save medical costs and will not cause great psychological burden to patients.

Demyelination of the central nervous system often occurs in neurodegenerative diseases, such as multiple sclerosis (MS). The myelin sheath, a layer of myelin membrane wrapping the axon, plays a role in the rapid conduction and metabolic coupling of impulses for neurons. The exposure of the axon will lead to axonal degeneratio, and further neuronal degeneration, which is the main cause of dysfunction and even disability in patients with demyelinating neurodegenerative diseases. In addition to the demyelination of mature myelin sheath, remyelination disorder is also one of the major reasons leading to the development of the diseases. The myelin sheath is composed of oligodendrocytes (OLs) derived from oligodendrocyte progenitor cells (OPCs) which are differentiated from neural stem cells (NSCs). The process of myelin regeneration, i.e., remyelination, is the differentiation of NSCs into OLs. Recent studies have shown that this process is regulated by a variety of genes. MicroRNAs, as important regulators of neurodegenerative diseases, form a complex regulatory network in the process of myelin regeneration. This review summarizes the main molecular pathways of myelin regeneration and microRNAs involved in this process and classifies the mechanisms and targets. This review is expected to provide a theoretical reference for the future research on the treatment of demyelinating diseases by targeting the regulation of microRNAs.

Polycystic ovary syndrome(PCOS) is a common reproductive endocrine and metabolic disorder, affecting about 6%-10% of women of childbearing age worldwide, and has always been a major challenge in clinical treatment. Guizhi Fulingwan, derived from the Synopsis of the Golden Chamber(《金匮要略》), has the effect of promoting blood circulation, removing blood stasis, and alleviating blockages. In recent years, many studies have found that it has a good therapeutic effect on PCOS. By sorting out the research literature on the mechanism of Guizhi Fulingwan treating PCOS, it is found that this formula can decrease the autophagy and apoptosis of ovarian granulosa cells, correct endocrine hormone disorder, improve the inflammatory environment, alleviate oxidative stress. Moreover, it regulates phosphatidylinositide 3-kinase(PI3K)/protein kinase B(Akt)/mammalian target of rapamycin(mTOR), lncRNA H19/miR-29b-3p, nuclear factor E2-related factor 2(Nrf2)/heme oxygenase-1(HO-1), PI3K/Akt/nuclear factor-κB(NF-κB), and other signaling pathways. And also effects the regulator expression of matrix metallopeptidase-9(MMP-9), matrix metalloproteinase inhibitor-1(TIMP-1), cytochrome P45019A1 enzyme(CYP19A1), glucose transporter protein 4(GLUT4), regulated on activation normal T cell expressed and secreted(RANTES), monocyte chemoattractant protein-1(MCP-1). Thus, Guizhi Fulingwan is confirmed to treat PCOS based on these molecular mechanisms. Besides, the main active ingredients of the formula such as cinnamic aldehyde, (+)-catechin, stigmasterol, also have the effect of anti-oxidant, anti-inflammatory, regulating mitochondrial function, regulating endocrine, and regulating metabolism. According to the summary of clinical literature on Guizhi Fulingwan, it is found that the use of the formula alone or in combination with other drugs can significantly alleviate the clinical symptoms and complications of PCOS. Thus, it is safe with no adverse reactions in long-term use, which is worthily further promoted in clinical application. This paper comprehensively analyzed the current research status of Guizhi Fulingwan for the treatment of PCOS through the mechanism and clinical studies, summarized the limitations in current research, and put forward suggestions, aiming to provide the strong literature support for the future in-depth research on and clinical application of the formula.

Objective:To explore the influencing factors of early postoperative complications after radical resection of congenital choledochal cyst (CCC) in a single center and provide some clinical basis and guidance for reducing postoperative complications.Methods:Case control study.Clinical data of 124 children (29 boys and 95 girls) with CCC diagnosed and radically treated at the Affiliated Hospital of Zunyi Medical University from September 2010 to October 2019 were analyzed.According to postoperative complications (bile leakage, gastrointestinal anastomotic fistula, bleeding, incision dehiscence, cholangitis, abdominal infection, pancreatitis, and lymphatic fistula), these children were divided into the complication group (group A) and non-complication group (group B). Age, laboratory indicators[preoperative white blood cell (WBC) count, hemoglobin, glutamic pyruvic transaminase, prealbumin, and postoperative albumin], and clinical factors, such as operation method, operation time, intraoperative blood loss, cyst type, cyst diameter, hepatic duct diameter, abdominal operation history, biliary sludge and calculus, hepatic duct anatomic variation, and pancreaticobiliary maljunction were statistically analyzed between the two groups.The t-test was performed for normal distribution of the measurement data, and the non-parametric rank sum test for non-normal distribution.Multivariate analysis was made using Logistic regression. Results:Among the 124 children, 25(20.16%) had complications, and 99(79.84%) had no complications.Bile leakage occurred in 14 children (11.29%), of whom 7 received operation again and 7 received conservative treatment.Gastrointestinal anastomotic fistula occurred in 2 children (1.61%), of whom 1 was re-operated and 1 was cured conservatively.One child (0.81%) was complicated with bleeding and cured by re-operation.Two children (1.61%) were complicated with incision dehiscence, of whom 1 was cured by re-operation and 1 was cured by conservative treatment.Cholangitis in 2 children (1.61%), abdominal infection in 2 children (1.61%), pancreatitis in 1 child (0.81%), and lymphatic fistula in 1 child (0.81%) were all conservatively cured.No significant difference was found in non-normal distribution indicators-age and WBC count-between the two groups (all P>0.05). Blood loss volume and cyst diameter were significantly different between the two groups (all P<0.05). Postoperative albumin[(27.84±4.62) g/L vs.(32.45±3.72) g/L] meeting the normal distribution showed a statistically significant difference between the two groups ( t=5.254, P<0.05). Logistic multivariate regression analysis suggested that preoperative anemia ( OR=7.922, 95% CI: 1.468-42.757) and biliary sludge and calculus ( OR=1.295, 95% CI: 1.075-4.359) were independent risk factors for postoperative complications; postoperative albumin ( OR=0.055, 95% CI: 0.012-0.244) was a protective factor for postoperative complications, and the differences were statistically significant (all P<0.05). Conclusions:The larger the cyst diameter, the more the intraoperative bleeding, and the higher the risk of operation.Treating anemia before operation, clearing sludge in the hepatic duct during operation, reducing bleeding, and strengthening the monitoring of albumin and hemoglobin during the perioperative period can prevent and reduce early complications after radical resection of CCC in children.

Tumor metastasis is the major cause of death for tumor patients and the key bottleneck of clinical treatment. In recent years, basic and clinical studies have recognized that tumor microenvironment (TME) is highly correlated with tumor metastasis, which provides hope for anti-metastatic drug development and clinical treatment. At present, the mainstream studies on TME represented by immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) mainly focus on the rectification of immune function of T cells and B cells. However, a large number of studies have shown that the significance of other members of TME for tumor metastasis cannot be ignored, which greatly reflects the progress of anti-metastatic research based on TME regulation. This review focused on tumor metastasis, summarized the mechanism of action of non-T and non-B immune cells [tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) and tumor-associated neutrophils (TANs)] and non-immune members [vascular endothelial cells (ECs), tumor-associated fibroblasts (CAFs), and blood platelet] in the process of tumor metastasis in TME based on the literature over the recent five years, and explored their key value in the treatment of metastasis. At the treatment level, this review focused on the perspective of the integration of frontier and traditional methods and took the functional homeostasis remodeling of TME as the entry point to summarize the activity and mechanism of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) regulation of non-T and non-B immune cells and non-immune members and highlight its advantages and characteristics in clinical intervention of metastasis. This review helps to break through the limitations of over-reliance on T and B immune cells in anti-metastatic research, make the research rely on a wider range of cell groups, explore the potential value of TME in anti-metastatic drug intervention, and enrich the idea and strategy of understanding the anti-metastatic pharmacological activity. The review is also expected to provide a broader vision for the research and development of new anti-metastatic drugs.
