Objective:To explore the efficacy and prognosis of hepatectomy via Laennec membrane approach in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).Methods:The data of 98 patients with HCC who underwent hepatectomy in the First Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University from January 2016 to December 2022 were retrospectively analyzed, including 76 males and 22 females, aged 61.0 (55.0, 66.0) years. Forty-eight patients treated with Laennec membrane approach hepatectomy were included in the study group and 50 patients treated with traditional approach hepatectomy were included in the control group. The age, gender, combined hypertension and diabetes, aspartate transaminase, alanine transaminase, albumin, total bilirubin, prealbumin, platelet, alpha-fetoprotein, carbohydrate antigen 19-9 and carbohydrate antigen 125 were compared between the two groups. The surgical bleeding, operation time and complications (abdominal bleeding, bile leakage, poor incision healing, etc.) were compared between the two groups. The prognosis of the two groups was compared.Results:There were no significant differences in gender, age, underlying diseases, preoperative biochemical and tumor serological indexes between the two groups (all P>0.05). The operation time of the study group was 180.0 (141.3, 227.3) min, which was lower than that of the control group 221.5 (187.5, 256.3) min ( Z=-0.41, P=0.002). The intraoperative blood loss in the study group was 295.0 (127.5, 350.0) ml, which was lower than that in the control group 300.0 (200.0, 500.0) ml, and the difference was statistically significant ( Z=-1.97, P=0.003). The levels of aspartate transaminase and alanine transaminase 1 week after surgery in the study group were 33.4 (24.0, 43.8) U/L and 64.5 (38.3, 119.1) U/L, respectively, which were lower than those in the control group 41.3 (29.7, 63.0) U/L and 102.8 (50.1, 140.7) U/L, the differences were statistically significant ( Z=-2.09, -2.38, P=0.035, 0.028). Postoperative complications occurred in 8 cases (16.7%) in the study group and 10 cases (20.0%) in the control group, with no significant difference between the two groups ( χ2=0.18, P=0.670). The median overall survival was 16 months in the study group and 18 months in the control group, respectively. There was no significant difference in cumulative survival between the two groups ( χ2=1.41, P=0.130). Conclusion:Laennec membrane approach hepatectomy can not only shorten the operation time and reduce the amount of blood loss, but also promote the recovery of liver function.

To explore the in vitro and in vivo synergistic effect of paclitaxel in combination with co-listin against MDREscherichia coli(E.coli)and the corresponding mechanism of synergism,we measured the MICs of PTX alone and combination of PTX+antimicrobial drugs on E.coli and Staphylococcus aureus(S.aureus)by broth microdilution method.Then,checkerboard method was used to determine the FICI of PTX+COL combination,and the antibacterial synergies of PTX and COL was further explored through analyzing the membrane permeability and efflux pump ac-tivity.The MICs results showed that the MIC values of PTX alone against E.coli(G5,E25)and S.aureus S238 were＞1 024 mg/L and 512 mg/L,respectively.Meanwhile,we found that the anti-bacterial activity of COL against E.coli could be significantly enhanced(MIC decreased by 4 to 8 times)when used in combination with PTX.The checkerboard test showed that the FICI values of PTX combined with COL for E.coli(G5,E25)were 0.31 and 0.29,respectively,indicating a synergistic antibacterial effect on these strains.The FICI values of PTX combined with COL for E.coli G21,S.aureus(S237 and S238)were 0.51,0.75 and 0.53,respectively,indicating additive effects on these strains.In the mouse abdominal infection model,the combination group could ex-tremely significantly reduce the bacterial burden of E.coli in abdominal compared to the COL or PTX alone group(P＜0.001).The analysis of membrane permeability and efflux pump activity showed that PTX combined with COL significantly increased the inner and outer membrane per-meability of E.coli(G5 and E25),and markedly inhibited the efflux pumping activity of E.coli,when compared that of PTX and COL alone(P＜0.01).The above results indicated that the com-bination of PTX and COL could exert a synergistic in vivo and in vitro antibacterial effect on COL-resistant E.coli through increasing bacterial membrane permeability and inhibiting efflux pump activity.This study provides the theoretical foundation for the development of a novel combi-nation regimen for the treatment of MDR E.coli infection.

Skeletal class Ⅱ malocclusion is characterized by maxillary protrusion,mandibular retrognathia,or a combination of both,and often accompanied by vertical dimensional discrepancies;treatment is complex,and combined orthodontic-orthognathic surgery is needed for the adult patients.Clear aligner therapy has gradually been applied in complex orthodontic cases.However,limited cases have been reported domestically and internationally regarding the application of clear aligner therapy combined with orthognathic surgery.This article presented a case of a patient with skeletal class Ⅱ high-angle malocclusion treated with the combined therapy and analyzed the clinical efficacy of the treatment appraoch to provide reference for the clinical practice.Extraction of impacted wisdom teeth 18,28,38,and 48,as well as orthodontic teeth 15,25,34,and 44,was performed in stages before orthodontic treatment.Clear aligner therapy was used for preoperative orthodontics.In sagittal plane,a super-complete class Ⅱ canine and molar relationship and a 13-14 mm overjet of the anterior teeth were established.The maxillary and mandibular arch morphology was matched horizontally.The orthognathic surgery included maxillary LeFort Ⅰ osteotomy,bilateral sagittal split ramus osteotomy(BSSRO)and chinplasty.Fine occlusal adjustment was conducted after operation.After treatment,the skeletal relationship between upper and lower jaw was corrected to normal;subspinale-nasion-supramental angle(ANB)was improved from 12.3° to 4.7°;the patient established the class Ⅰ canine and molar relationship,with normal overjet and overbite;root parallelism was good and there was no obvious root resorption;the facial soft tissue profile was significantly improved,and nasion-subnasale-pogonion angle(N-Sn-Pg)was improved from 143.9° to 162.8°.The curative effect was stable 1 year after operation.Clear aligner therapy can efficiently complete combined orthodontic and orthodontic surgery in the complex cases.Compared with the fixed appliance,it is more beneficial to the patients'need for beauty and the maintenance of periodontal health.

[Objective] To evaluate the clinical application value of intrauterine perfusion with platelet-rich plasma (PRP) combined with in vitro fertilization-frozen-thawed embryo transfer (IVF-FET) in patients with chronic endometritis (CE). [Methods] A randomized controlled trial (RCT) was conducted, enrolling 60 CE patients undergoing artificial cycle frozen embryo transfer at our hospital from January 2022 to January 2024. Participants were randomly divided into three groups: Group A (routine frozen embryo transfer, n=20), Group B (routine frozen embryo transfer + one PRP intrauterine perfusion, n=20), and Group C (routine frozen embryo transfer + two PRP intrauterine perfusions, n=20). Endometrial thickness during the transformation and transplantation phases, uterine artery pulsatility index (PI), resistance index (RI), systolic peak velocity/end-diastolic velocity (S/D) ratio during transplantation, serum levels of IL-2, IL-4, IL-6, IL-10, and TNF-α during transplantation, as well as biochemical pregnancy rate, clinical pregnancy rate, live birth rate, and early miscarriage rate were compared across groups. [Results] No significant differences in endometrial thickness were observed among the three groups during the transformation phase (P>0.05). During the transplantation phase, endometrial thickness in Groups C and B was significantly higher than in Group A[9.54 (8.96-10.22) and 8.90 (8.34-9.72) vs 8.37 (7.89-8.75) mm, P<0.05], with Group C showing greater thickness than Group B (Z=3.733, P<0.05). Endometrial thickness in Groups C and B during transplantation was significantly increased compared to their respective transformation phases (Z=2.191, 2.462; P<0.05). Groups C and B exhibited lower PI, RI, and S/D values than Group A[PI:1.87 (1.77-1.97), 1.94 (1.88-2.15) vs 2.43 (2.35-2.49); RI:0.75 (0.73-0.77), 0.78 (0.75-0.81) vs 0.84 (0.83-0.86); S/D:2.61 (2.33-3.42), 3.01 (2.20-3.93) vs 3.72 (3.06-4.49); P<0.05]. Group C demonstrated lower PI and RI than Group B (P<0.05). IL-2 levels in Groups C and B were higher than in Group A[3.88 (2.71-5.01), 3.59 (2.73-4.38) vs 3.16 (2.11-3.25) ng/L, P<0.05], while IL-4, IL-6, IL-10, and TNF-α levels were significantly lower (IL-4: Z=1.428, 2.421; IL-6: Z=1.754, 2.435; IL-10: Z=1.754, 2.854; TNF-α: Z=1.961, 1.765; P<0.05). Group C had lower IL-6 levels than Group B (Z=3.976, P<0.05). Biochemical pregnancy rate, clinical pregnancy rate, and live birth rate in Group C were significantly higher than in Group A (75% vs 40%, 70% vs 35%, 60% vs 20%, P<0.05). No significant differences in early miscarriage rates were observed among the groups (χ²=3.750, P>0.05). [Conclusion] Intrauterine autologous PRP perfusion in CE patients enhances pregnancy and live birth rates, improves pregnancy outcomes post-FET, and demonstrates superior efficacy in endometrial repair and receptivity with two PRP perfusions compared to a single perfusion. This provides a safe and effective therapeutic option for optimizing outcomes in CE patients with prior implantation failure.

Objective:To explore the application value of selective transurethral plasma kinetic resection of the prostate (PKRP) and transurethral holmium laser enucleation of the prostate (HoLEP) in the treatment of diabetes benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH).Methods:A total of 114 patients with diabetes BPH diagnosed and treated in Lanxi People′s Hospital from September 2020 to September 2023 were retrospectively selected and divided into resection group and enunciation group according to the operation method, with 57 cases in each group. The resection group received selective PKRP and the enucleation group received HoLEP. Preoperative and postoperative stress response indexes were compared between the two groups, as well as urodynamics indexes and complications before and 3 months after surgery.Results:The quality of prostatectomy in the enucleation group was higher than that in the resection group : (39.68 ± 3.02) g vs. (30.25 ± 2.84) g; the operation time, intraoperative blood loss, bladder irrigation time and hospital stay in the enucleation group were lower than those in the resection group: (63.84 ± 5.44) min vs. (72.58 ± 11.33) min, (62.38 ± 15.84) ml vs. (89.54 ± 17.91) ml, (1.84 ± 0.71) d vs. (2.35 ± 0.80) d, (4.98 ± 1.16) d vs.(5.64 ± 1.05) d, there were statistical differences ( P<0.05). The levels of serum cortisol (COR) and norepinephrine (NE) in the enucleation group at 1, 3 d after surgery were lower than those in the excision group [1 d after surgery: (279.76 ± 17.82) ng/L vs. (289.51 ± 18.37) ng/L, (287.44 ± 26.51) ng/L vs. (300.47 ± 28.35) ng/L; 3 d after surgery: (236.58 ± 15.98) ng/L vs. (247.46 ± 16.47) ng/L, (269.13 ± 23.51) ng/L vs. (278.76 ± 25.62) ng/L, there were statistical differences ( P<0.05). Three months after surgery, the maximum urine flow rate in the enucleation group was higher than that in the excision group : (21.51 ± 3.82) ml/s vs. (18.74 ± 4.17) ml/s, and the residual urine volume (RUV) was lower than that in the excision group : (8.47 ± 3.06) ml vs. (10.25 ± 2.43) ml, there were statistical differences ( P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the incidence of urethral stricture and urinary incontinence between the two groups ( P>0.05). Conclusions:HoLEP for the treatment of diabetes BPH can reduce stress response, promote disease recovery, improve urodynamics, and has a safety comparable to that of selective PKRP.
