Objective:To analyze the anatomical characteristics and surgical management measures of acute Stanford type A aortic dissection (AAD) involving coronary arteries, and to preliminarily explore the clinical efficacy of different coronary artery treatment techniques.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of 42 patients who underwent surgery for AAD involving coronary arteries in Hunan Provincial People′s Hospital from January 2022 to May 2025. They were divided into the MI group (14 cases) and the nMI group (28 cases) according to whether they had acute myocardial infarction before surgery. The clinical data such as the actual surgical methods and mortality in the two groups were summarized.Results:Among 294 surgeries, 42 cases (14.3%) had definite coronary artery involvement, including 14 cases in the MI group and 28 cases in the nMI group; 1 case had bilateral coronary artery involvement and 41 cases had right coronary artery involvement. Regarding injury types: 16 cases were of the coronary trunk compression type, 12 cases were of the sinus intimal tear neal to ostium type, and 14 cases were of the coronary trunk intimal type. There was no statistically significant difference in the types of coronary artery involvement between the two groups ( P>0.05). There were 18 cases of Sun′s procedure with preserved aortic sinus and aortic valve, 7 cases of Bentall procedure without bypass, and 17 cases of Bentall procedure plus bypass. There was no statistically significant difference in the surgical plans between the two groups ( P>0.05). There were 4 deaths within 30 days (2 cases in each group). Conclusions:AAD involving coronary arteries is a critical condition, and accurate diagnosis is somewhat difficult. Myocardial ischemia is not significantly associated with the type of coronary artery involvement. The surgical plan depends on the type of coronary artery involvement. The classification method in this study is conducive to selecting appropriate surgical methods and improving surgical prognosis.

Purpose To investigate the clinicopathological characteristics of nephrogenic adenoma/metaplasia(NA/M)of the bladder and analyze key points for diagnosis and differential diagnosis.Methods A retrospective a-nalysis was conducted on 10 cases of NA/M of the bladder,including clinical data,cystoscopic findings,microscopic morphology,and immunohistochemistry(IHC)results.Subsequently,a whole-exome sequencing(WES)was per-formed and a comprehensive literature review was supplemented.Results The cohort included 6 cases female and 4 cases male,aged 20-72 years(median:46.5 years).Three patients had a history of hydronephrosis(2 cases with nephrolithiasis and hydronephrosis,1 case with acute leukemia and bone marrow transplantation),2 cases had renal tuberculosis,1 case had erectile dysfunction,3 cases had a history of invasive high-grade urothelial carcinoma of the bladder,and 1 case had bladder endometriosis.All patients underwent cystoscopic biopsy,with pathological confirma-tion of NA/M.IHC showed that all 10 cases expressed PAX-8 and CK7 but were negative for GATA-3,p63/CK5/6,and PSA.The Ki67 proliferation index ranged from 1%to 10%.WES analysis of 7 cases revealed somatic single nu-cleotide variants(SNVs)involving multiple genes,with the highest mutation frequencies in FAM186A(86%),GOL-GA6L2(86%),and AQP7(86%).Conclusion NA/M is a benign but recurrent lesion,with rare malignant trans-formation after multiple recurrences.Comprehensive evaluation of histomorphological atypia and IHC results is recom-mended for accurate diagnosis and differential diagnosis to avoid misdiagnosis.Long-term follow-up is advised.WES findings suggest associations between NA/M and mutations in FAM186A,GOLGA6L2,and AQP7,providing potential directions for future research.

Objective :
To explore the role of semaphoring 6d(SEMA6D) in the malignant progression of triple-negative breast cancer(TNBC).
Methods :
Bioinformatics and Immunohistochemistry(IHC) were used to analyze the expression level of SEMA6D in TNBC and paracancer non-tumor tissues and its relationship with patients′ clinicopathological features. MDA-MB-231 cell line stably knocking down the expression of SEMA6D was constructed, and the effects of SEMA6D on migration and invasion of TNBC cells were investigated by Wound-healing assays and Transwell assays. cBioPortal and GEPIA2 databases were used to screen out the gene negatively associated with it, namely aurora kinase A(AURKA). Bioinformatics and IHC were used to analyze the expression level of AURKA in TNBC and paracancer non-tumor tissues and its relationship with patients' clinicopathological features. Western blot assay was used to analyze the expression of AURKA and the effect of epithelial-mesenchymal transition(EMT) makers Claudin-1, N-cadherin and Vimentin after knocking downSEMA6D.
Results:
Bioinformatics analysis and IHC results showed that the expression of SEMA6D in TNBC tissues was significantly lower than that in paracancer non-tumor tissues(bothP<0.05). The expression of AURKA in TNBC tissues was significantly higher than that in paracancer non-tumor tissues(bothP<0.05), SEMA6D and AURKA were significantly negatively correlated in TNBC(P<0.01). Both low expression of SEMA6D and high expression of AURKA were positively correlated with tumor size, tumor histological grade, clinical stage and lymph node metastasis in TNBC patients(allP<0.05). The knockdown ofSEMA6Dsignificantly promoted the migration and invasion ability of TNBC cells(bothP<0.01). Western blot results showed that the knockdown ofSEMA6Dupregulated AURKA expression, promoted the expression of N-cadherin and Vimentin, and inhibited the expression of Claudin-1 in tumor cells.
Conclusion
Down-regulation of SEMA6D expression in TNBC may be involved in the malignant progression of TNBC through up-regulation of AURKA expression and promotion of EMT.

Objective :
To explore the expression of prohibitin2(PHB2) in breast cancer and its effect on the biological behaviors of tumor cells.
Methods :
Immunohistochemistry was used to detect the expression of PHB2 protein in breast cancer tissues and its relationship with clinicopathologic features. Breast cancer stable transient cell lines were constructed with knockdown and overexpression ofPHB2, respectively. The effects of PHB2 on cell proliferation, migration and invasion ability were detected by clone formation assay, scratch assay and Transwell assay. Western blot(WB) was used to detect the effects of PHB2 on the expression of epithelial-mesenchymal transition(EMT)-related markers, including E-cadherin, N-cadherin, Snail family transcriptional repressor 1(Snail) protein, Vimentin, and Claudin-1. The effect of PHB2 on tumorigenicityin vivowas detected by subcutaneous tumor formation assay in nude mice.
Results:
The result of immunohistochemical showed that PHB2 was highly expressed in breast cancer and the expression of PHB2 was significantly positive correlated with tumor size, human epidermal growth factor receptor-2(HER-2) status and proliferation index Ki-67 levels(P<0.05). Clone formation assay, scratch assay and Transwell assay revealed that knockdown ofPBH2significantly inhibited the proliferation, migration and invasion ability of breast cancer cells(P<0.01), while the overexpression ofPHB2significantly promoted cell proliferation, migration and invasion(P<0.01). The result of subcutaneous tumor formation experiment in nude mice revealed a significant decrease in tumor volume and weight in knockdownPHB2mice(P<0.000 1), whilePHB2overexpression tumors significantly increased in volume and weight(P<0.001).WB assay showed that the protein expression of epithelial marker E-cadherin increased, while the expressions of mesenchymal markers N-cadherin, Snail and Vimentin decreased significantly afterPHB2knockdown with them in control cells(P<0.01). The expression of Claudin-1 decreased, while the expressions of N-cadherin, Snail and Vimentin increased significantly inPHB2overexpression cells(P<0.05).
Conclusion
PHB2 is highly expressed in breast cancer and promotes multiple malignant biological behaviors in tumor cells, suggesting PHB2 may be a potential target for breast cancer diagnosis and treatment.

Patients with severe trauma require an extremely timely treatment and transfusion plays an irreplaceable role in the emergency treatment of such patients. An increasing number of evidence-based medicinal evidences and clinical practices suggest that patients with severe traumatic bleeding benefit from early transfusion of low-titer group O whole blood or hemostatic resuscitation with red blood cells, plasma and platelet of a balanced ratio. However, the current domestic mode of blood supply cannot fully meet the requirements of timely and effective blood transfusion for emergency treatment of patients with severe trauma in clinical practice. In order to solve the key problems in blood supply and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma, Branch of Clinical Transfusion Medicine of Chinese Medical Association, Group for Trauma Emergency Care and Multiple Injuries of Trauma Branch of Chinese Medical Association, Young Scholar Group of Disaster Medicine Branch of Chinese Medical Association organized domestic experts of blood transfusion medicine and trauma treatment to jointly formulate Chinese expert consensus on blood support mode and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma patients ( version 2024). Based on the evidence-based medical evidence and Delphi method of expert consultation and voting, 10 recommendations were put forward from two aspects of blood support mode and transfusion strategies, aiming to provide a reference for transfusion resuscitation in the emergency treatment of severe trauma and further improve the success rate of treatment of patients with severe trauma.
