Objective Jejunal interposition is an important option for restoring gastrointestinal continuity in patients with complex esophageal cancer in whom the stomach is unavailable for reconstruction due to previous gastrectomy, tumor involvement, failed gastric conduit, or other constraints. Although the jejunum offers a caliber similar to the esophagus, a rich blood supply, and preserved peristaltic function, anatomical variations in mesenteric length and vascular arcades render long-segment and high-level reconstruction susceptible to excessive tension, mesenteric torsion, venous congestion, and inadequate distal perfusion. This consensus aims to provide standardized recommendations for the application of jejunal interposition in this specific patient population. Methods This consensus was developed in accordance with the WHO Handbook for Guideline Development and Chinese national guideline development standards, with reference to the Appraisal of Guidelines for Research & Evaluation Ⅱ(AGREE Ⅱ), Reporting Items for Practice Guidelines in Healthcare (RIGHT), and Scientific, Transparent and Applicable Rankings (STAR) checklists. The project was registered on the international practice guidelines registry platform (PREPARE-2026CN1384). The working group systematically searched Chinese and English evidence addressing 12 clinical questions. Evidence was graded using the Oxford Centre for Evidence-Based Medicine (OCEBM) 2009 system, with structured appraisal of risk of bias, inconsistency, indirectness, and imprecision. Recommendations were formulated through two rounds of Delphi surveys and a face-to-face consensus meeting, with an agreement threshold of ≥75%. Results The consensus generated 12 recommendations covering indications, selection between jejunum and colon, preoperative assessment, surgical approach and reconstruction route, pedicled jejunal interposition (PJI), supercharged pedicled jejunal interposition (SPJ), indocyanine green (ICG) perfusion assessment, perioperative nutrition, management of anastomotic leakage, long-term follow-up, and special treatment scenarios. Given that the available direct evidence is predominantly derived from single-center retrospective cohorts and case series, recommendations extrapolated from general esophagectomy or other gastrointestinal surgical evidence are deliberately phrased with caution. Conclusion Jejunal interposition is a safe and effective approach for digestive tract reconstruction in patients with complex esophageal cancer in whom the stomach is unavailable. This consensus emphasizes that clinical decision-making should be individualized based on the patient's prior treatment history, reconstruction height, vascular anatomy, technical availability, and institutional experience in the Chinese context.

Objective To explore the effects of lipoxygenase(LOX)on severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome virus(SFTSV)in human umbilical vein endothelial cells(HUVECs).Methods The CCK-8 assay was used to assess the cytotoxicity of LOX in HUVECs.Real-time quantitative PCR(qPCR)was adopted to detect the replication of viral RNA in cells.The infection rate of SFTSV to HUVECs was observed via indirect immunofluorescence assay(IFA).The expressions of intracellular viral NP protein and autophagy related proteins microtubule-associated protein 1 light chain 3(LC3)and adenosine 5'-monophosphate-activated protein kinase(AMPK)/mammalian target of rapamycin(mTOR)were detected via Western blotting.Lipid metabolomics was used to analyze the differences in expressions of intracellular metabolites in the SFTSV-infected Huh 7 with or without LOX treatment.Results The results of CCK-8 showed no obvious cytotoxicity to HUVECs with LOX≤8 mg/mL.With the increase of LOX concentrations,the viral RNA level,viral infection rate,and expressions of SFTSV nucleoprotein(NP)protein were gradually decreased,respectively.The autophagy reaction was activated in SFTSV-infected HUVECs,evidenced by the increased expression level of LC3 Ⅱ protein.Compared with the untreated group,LOX treatment resulted in decreased levels of LC3 Ⅱ and AMPK phosphorylation,and enhanced phosphorylation of mTOR in SFTSV-infected HUVEC.Conclusion LOX negatively regulates autophagy by inhibiting AMPK/mTOR signaling pathway,thereby inhibiting SFTSV replication.

The three-dimensional (3D) printed bone tissue repair guide scaffold is considered a promising method for treating bone defect repair. In this experiment, chitosan (CS), sodium alginate (SA), and mineralized collagen (MC) were combined and 3D printed to form scaffolds. The experimental results showed that the printability of the scaffold was improved with the increase of chitosan concentration. Infrared spectroscopy analysis confirmed that the scaffold formed a cross-linked network through electrostatic interaction between chitosan and sodium alginate under acidic conditions, and X-ray diffraction results showed the presence of characteristic peaks of hydroxyapatite, indicating the incorporation of mineralized collagen into the scaffold system. In the in vitro collagen release experiments, a weakly alkaline environment was found to accelerate the release rate of collagen, and the release amount increased significantly with a lower concentration of chitosan. Cell experiments showed that scaffolds loaded with mineralized collagen could significantly promote cell proliferation activity and alkaline phosphatase expression. The subcutaneous implantation experiment further verified the biocompatibility of the material, and the implantation of printed scaffolds did not cause significant inflammatory reactions. Histological analysis showed no abnormal pathological changes in the surrounding tissues. Therefore, incorporating mineralized collagen into sodium alginate/chitosan scaffolds is believed to be a new tissue engineering and regeneration strategy for achieving enhanced osteogenic differentiation through the slow release of collagen.

Objective:To evaluate the application effect of a wearable visual field meter based on extended reality (XR) glasses for patients with macular disease.Methods:A self-controlled study was conducted.A total of 41 consecutive patients (41 eyes) with macular disease were recruited at Renmin Hospital of Wuhan University from October 2022 to October 2024.All patients underwent 10-2 center visual field test using a self-developed wearable visual field meter (XRVF), and the results were compared with those obtained using a traditional Humphrey field analyzer (HFA).The comparison parameters included mean retinal sensitivity (MS), false positive rate (FPR), false negative rate (FNR), and testing duration.A subject satisfaction questionnaire was administered.This study followed the Declaration of Helsinki.The study protocol was approved by the Medical Ethics Committee of Renmin Hospital of Wuhan University (No.WDRY2024-K263), and all subjects signed the informed consent form.Results:The retinal sensitivity of patients measured by HFA was (23.24±3.71)dB, which was higher than (22.01±3.45)dB by XRVF, showing a statistically significant difference ( t=4.924, P=0.036).The FPR measured by HFA and XRVF were (2.39±2.51)% and (2.59±3.29)%, respectively, and the FNR were (3.49±6.05)% and (3.74±5.38)%, respectively, showing no statistically significant difference ( t=-3.624, P=0.948; t=-1.241, P=0.519).The median test duration for HFA and XRVF was 6.15 (5.78, 6.65) and 5.98 (5.71, 6.69)minutes, respectively, without statistically significant difference ( Z=-1.987, P=0.953).92.6% of the subjects thought the device was comfortable, simple and practical. Conclusions:The XRVF has good consistency with the HFA, can effectively and reliably evaluate the visual field function of patients with macular disease, and is easily accepted by patients.

Objective:To investigate the role of microRNA-25-5p (miR-25-5p) in melanogenesis, and to explore its underlying mechanisms.Methods:Target genes of miR-25-5p were predicted using the TargetScan database. The interaction between miR-25-5p and the 3' untranslated region (3' UTR) of the RAB11B gene (a member of RAS oncogene family) was validated through a dual-luciferase reporter assay. Post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH) models were established in female C57BL/6J mice (6 - 8 weeks old) and female brown guinea pigs (4 - 6 weeks old) through daily broadband ultraviolet B (UVB) irradiation on the dorsal skin of the mouse ear or shaved dorsal skin of guinea pigs, while untreated mice and untreated dorsal skin areas of guinea pigs served as control groups. During modeling, these experimental animals received intradermal injections of a miR-25-5p agomir or a miR control agomir. Changes in skin pigmentation were observed, and skin tissue samples were harvested for further analysis after modeling. Melanin content in skin tissues was evaluated using Masson-Fontana staining. Expression of RAB11B and tyrosinase (TYR) in skin tissues was determined using immunohistochemical staining and quantitative real-time PCR (qPCR). Primary human melanocytes were isolated from discarded normal foreskin tissues of healthy males after circumcision. Both primary human melanocytes and human MNT1 melanoma cells were transfected with miR-25-5p mimics or miR control mimics. Relative expression levels of miR-25-5p and RAB11B mRNA were quantified by qPCR using the 2 -ΔΔCt calculation method. In MNT1 cells, miR-25-5p and RAB11B were co-overexpressed to assess their effect on the mRNA expression of RAB11B and TYR. Statistical analysis was conducted using t test or one-way analysis of variance followed by Tukey's post hoc test for multiple comparisons. Results:The bioinformatic prediction and dual-luciferase reporter assay confirmed a binding site for miR-25-5p in the 3′ UTR of the RAB11B gene. In both animal models, the treatment with the miR-25-5p agomir significantly reduced local skin pigmentation compared to the control groups; Masson-Fontana staining showed a marked decrease in the density of melanin granules in the epidermis and dermis in the miR-25-5p agomir groups compared with the miR control agomir groups (mice: 0.050 ± 0.005 vs. 0.087 ± 0.008; guinea pigs: 0.067 ± 0.015 vs. 0.110 ± 0.013; both P < 0.05). Immunohistochemical staining revealed significantly lower expression of RAB11B in mouse skin tissues in the miR-25-5p agomir group than in those in the miR control agomir group (both P < 0.05). qPCR revealed significantly lower mRNA expression of RAB11B and TYR in skin tissues of guinea pigs in the miR-25-5p agomir group than in those in the miR control agomir group (both P < 0.05). Similarly, RAB11B mRNA expression significantly decreased in the miR-25-5p mimics group compared with the miR control mimics group in primary human melanocytes and MNT1 cells (both P < 0.05). In human MNT1 melanoma cells, miR-25-5p overexpression could suppress TYR mRNA expression, whereas co-overexpression of miR-25-5p and RAB11B could reverse this suppression. Conclusion:Overexpression of miR-25-5p could alleviate UVB-induced post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation and inhibit melanogenesis, likely by targeted suppression of RAB11B expression.
