Long-term hypertension causes excessive vascular remodeling and leads to adverse cardiovascular events. Balance of ubiquitination and deubiquitination has been linked to several chronic conditions, including pathological vascular remodeling. In this study, we discovered that the expression of ubiquitin-specific protease 25 (USP25) is significantly up-regulated in angiotensin II (Ang II)-challenged mouse aorta. Knockout of Usp25 augments Ang II-induced vascular injury such as fibrosis and endothelial to mesenchymal transition (EndMT). Mechanistically, we found that USP25 interacts directly with Forkhead box O3 (FOXO3) and removes the K63-linked ubiquitin chain on the K258 site of FOXO3. We also showed that this USP25-mediated deubiquitination of FOXO3 increases its binding to light chain 3 beta isoform and autophagosomic-lysosomal degradation of FOXO3. In addition, we further validated the biological function of USP25 by overexpressing USP25 in the mouse aorta with AAV9 vectors. Our studies identified FOXO3 as a new substrate of USP25 and showed that USP25 may be a potential therapeutic target for excessive vascular remodeling-associated diseases.

Objective:To present the surgical details of manual double-layer suturing in patients with obesity combined type 2 diabetes mellitus by three-incision laparoscopic single-anastomosis duodenal-jejunal bypass with sleeve gastrectomy .Methods:Clinical data and follow-up information of 52 obesity combined type 2 diabetes mellitus patients (BMI 27.59-43.71 kg/m2) who underwent three-incision laparoscopic single-anastomosis duodenal-jejunal bypass with sleeve gastrectomy from Jan 2019 to Jul 2022 at Beijing Shijitan hospital were retrospectively analyzed.Results:The procedure was successful in all patients. The median operative time was 120 (90, 120) min, and the median intraoperative bleeding was 20.0 (10.0, 27.5) ml. No fistula or serious surgical complications were observed in the patients at 1 month postoperatively. Compared with the preoperative period, the patient's weight decreased [(93.22±15.21) kg vs. (69.97±11.06) kg, t=21.707, P<0.01], BMI decreased [(33.11±4.09) kg/m 2vs. (24.86±2.95) kg/m 2, t=23.224, P<0.01], and the patient's fasting glucose level decreased [9.52 (7.57, 12.96) mmol/L vs. 5.47 (4.66, 6.39) mmol/L, Z=6.11, P<0.01]. The remission rate of various obesity comorbidities was greatly improved. Conclusion:Under the condition of three-incision laparoscopy, the pure manual duodenal and jejunal double-layer suture method is safe, feasible, and effective for patients with obesity combined with type 2 diabetes mellitus.

Objective:To investigate the feasibility and efficacy of distal arc-shaped incision of lunula combined with nail template replantation for the treatment of subungual glomus tumor.Methods:The clinical data with subungual glomus tumor treated in the Department of Orthopedics of First Affiliated Hospital of the University of Science and Technology of China from March 2019 to June 2021 were retrospectively analyzed. Each patient removed the nail, the nail bed was cut into by a distal arc-shaped incision of the lunula. After the tumor was exposed, the tumor was resected completely, the nail bed flap was reduced in situ without suturing. The nail template was made by using the 5 ml syringe barrel or the original nail and poked the drainage holes in it, then the nail template was covered on the nail bed surface, three-point suturing and pressurized fixation, routine dressing change, and the nail template was removed 3 weeks after the procedure. The visual analogue scale (VAS) of pain was recorded preoperative and one month after the operation, and nail bed healing, pain improvement, nail growth, and tumor recurrence were observed. VAS scores before and after surgery were expressed as M( Q1, Q3), and analyzed by Mann-Whitney U test, P<0.05 was considered statistically significant. Results:A total of 37 patients were enrolled, including 5 males and 32 females. The age ranged from 18 to 67 years old, with an average of 39 years old. All patients were confirmed as subungual glomus tumors by postoperative pathology, they were followed up for 6 to 36 months, with an average of 22 months. All of the patients had no obvious pain during the dressing change, after removing the nail template, the nail bed was flat and dry, and no obvious scar formation was found. All postoperative incisions were healed in one stage, the new nail recovered smoothly with a satisfactory appearance, the pain symptoms disappeared completely, and also no recurrence occurred during follow-up. The preoperative VAS score was 5.0 (4.5, 6.0), the VAS score one month after the operation was 0.0 (0.0, 0.0), and the difference was statistically significant ( Z=-7.57, P<0.001). Conclusion:The distal arc-shaped incision of the lunula for the treatment of subungual glomus tumor can effectively protect the germinal matrix of the nail bed, with sufficient tumor exposure, complete resection, and low recurrence rate. At the same time, combined with nail template replantation can significantly reduce nail bed scar formation and effectively prevent postoperative nail deformity. The method is simple, easy to operate, and has significant clinical efficacy.

【Objective】 To investigate the effect of multiple apheresis platelet donation on platelet indexes and aggregation function in platelet donors, and to analyze the relationship between platelet indexes and their relationship with platelet aggregation rate. 【Methods】 A total of 83 platelet donors were randomly selected from Foshan Central Blood Station from September 2021 to October 2022, and were divided into control group (n= 9, first-time platelet donors or donors with the time interval from the last platelet donation >1 year) and study group (n= 74, repeat platelet donors or donors with the time interval from the last platelet donation ≤ 1 year) according to the times of blood donation. The study group was divided into 4 subgroups: 2-5 times group, 6-10 times group, 11-15 times group and 16 times group. The platelet count(Plt), platelet distribution width (PDW), mean platelet volume (MPV), large platelet ratio (P-LCR), and maximum platelet aggregation rate (MAR) before donation in each group were detected and analyzed. 【Results】 There were no significant differences in Plt, MPV, PDW, P-LCR and MAR between the subgroups and the control group (P>0.05), and there were no significant differences in Plt, MPV, PDW, P-LCR and MAR between each subgroup (P>0.05) .There was a positive correlation between Plt and MAR in blood donors (P<0.05), and the correlation coefficient was 0.445. MPV, PDW and P-LCR were negatively correlated with MAR (P<0.05), and the correlation coefficients were -0.282, -0.233 and -0.217, respectively. Plt was negatively correlated with MPV, PDW and P-LCR (P < 0. 05), and the correlation coefficients were -0.399, -0.307 and -0.339, respectively. MPV, PDW and P-LCR are positively correlated with each other. The correlation coefficient between MPV and PDW was 0.792, that between MPV and P-LCR was 0.863, and tthat between PDW and P-LCR was 0.817. 【Conclusion】 There was no significant effect of multiple platelet donations on Plt, PDW, MPV, P-LCR and MAR in blood donors. Plt has the most significant impact on MAR among platelet indexes of platelet donors.

Objective:To explore the feasibility of applying BOPPPS (B-bridge in, O-objective, P-pre-assessment, P-participatory learning, P-post-assessment, S-summary) course design mode in the teaching of internal medicine practice for nursing undergraduates.Methods:A total of 73 nursing interns of Kunming Medical University were selected as subjects and divided into the experimental group ( n=30) and the control group ( n=43). The experimental group adopted the practice teaching method based on BOPPPS model, while the control group adopted the traditional teaching method. Students' evaluation was collected by questionnaire. The students' comprehensive reasoning ability, holistic nursing skills ability and clinical nursing evaluation ability were evaluated by taking out questions from the question bank. And the results of teachers' evaluation on the participation of case study and problem solving in the process of students' internship were collected. SPSS 20.0 was used for t-test. Results:The students' evaluation of the practice process in the experimental group (86.81±2.85) was significantly better than that in the control group (82.61±3.82) ( P<0.001). The experimental group was significantly better than the control group in comprehensive reasoning of clinical thinking and assessment of holistic nursing ability ( P <0.001). Teachers' evaluation in the experimental group was better than that in the control group ( P <0.05). The overall effect of the experimental group (20.60±1.73) was significantly better than that of the control group (17.84±1.70) ( P <0.001). Conclusion:BOPPPS mode is helpful for teachers to carry out and demonstrate holistic nursing teaching with symptoms as the core according to the overall teaching objectives of nursing internal medicine, optimize the time arrangement and knowledge structure, improve the practice efficiency, and promote the establishment of holistic nursing thinking mode of students.

Older adults have decreased control of body balance with aging and are prone to fall. As the primary point of contact between human body and ground, footwear is critical for stability of older adults. The relationship between shoe characteristics and stability of older adults was systematically reviewed to determine the effect of footwear characteristics on stability of older adults. The results show that wearing shoes with shoelaces or velcro, low heels, wide outsole and appropriate soles, or using vibrating insoles and arch support insoles can help older adults improve their stability. Excessive sole spring and low sole hardness may have adverse effects on stability of older adults. This study can provide theoretical references for older adults to choose shoes reasonably and for the manufacturers to design and make shoes to prevent falls.

The 18 kDa translocator protein (TSPO), previously known as the peripheral benzodiazepine receptor, is predominately localized to the outer mitochondrial membrane in steroidogenic cells. Brain TSPO expression is relatively low under physiological conditions, but is upregulated in response to glial cell activation. As the primary index of neuroinflammation, TSPO is implicated in the pathogenesis and progression of numerous neuropsychiatric disorders and neurodegenerative diseases, including Alzheimer's disease (AD), amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), Parkinson's disease (PD), multiple sclerosis (MS), major depressive disorder (MDD) and obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD). In this context, numerous TSPO-targeted positron emission tomography (PET) tracers have been developed. Among them, several radioligands have advanced to clinical research studies. In this review, we will overview the recent development of TSPO PET tracers, focusing on the radioligand design, radioisotope labeling, pharmacokinetics, and PET imaging evaluation. Additionally, we will consider current limitations, as well as translational potential for future application of TSPO radiopharmaceuticals. This review aims to not only present the challenges in current TSPO PET imaging, but to also provide a new perspective on TSPO targeted PET tracer discovery efforts. Addressing these challenges will facilitate the translation of TSPO in clinical studies of neuroinflammation associated with central nervous system diseases.

Objective:Based on the current medical environment, to learn about cognition status of doctor-patient relationship among medical students and analyze causes of the tension between doctors and patients.Methods:Using the self-designed questionnaire "Clinical Medical Students' Cognition Survey on Occupational Status and Doctor-Patient Relationship", a cross-sectional survey was conducted on 527 medical students from 5-year and 7-year clinical program in Batch 2014 in a medical university in Heilongjiang Province. The survey mainly analyzed the causes of the tension between doctors and patients from the level of medical staff, patients and their families, hospitals and society. SPSS 22.0 was used for descriptive statistics and chi-square test.Results:The results showed that 93.7% of the medical students believed that the current doctor-patient relationship was not harmonious. There were cognitive differences among medical students in different gender ( P=0.029), first contact clinical grade ( P=0.003) and professional identity ( P<0.001). Conclusion:Medical students have a poor evaluation towards the current doctor-patient relationship. In order to construct harmonious doctor-patient relationship in the future, we can try to take measures such as carrying out relevant courses of doctor-patient communication, improving the medical students' communication skills and enhancing their professional identity.
