OBJECTIVES: The application of photodynamic therapy in solid tumors has attracted increasing attention in recent years, and the efficiency of photosensitizers is a crucial determinant of therapeutic efficacy. This study aims to evaluate the cytotoxic effects of a novel photosensitizer, PEG-MTPABZ-PyC, in photodynamic therapy against gastric cancer cells. METHODS: Gastric cancer MKN45 cells were treated with PEG-MTPABZ-PyC. A high-content live-cell imaging system was used to assess the cellular uptake kinetics and subcellular localization of the photosensitizer. The cytotoxic effects of PEG-MTPABZ-PyC-mediated photodynamic therapy were examined using the cell counting kit-8 (CCK-8) assay and flow cytometry, while the intrinsic cytotoxicity of the photosensitizer alone was verified by the CCK-8 assay. Intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation after photodynamic therapy was detected using 2'-7'-dichlorodihydrofluorescein diacetate (DCFH-DA). RESULTS: PEG-MTPABZ-PyC alone exhibited no cytotoxicity toward MKN45 cells, indicating excellent cytocompatibility. The compound efficiently entered cells within 6 hours and localized predominantly in lysosomes. Upon light irradiation, PEG-MTPABZ-PyC-mediated photodynamic therapy induced significant cytotoxicity compared with the control group (P<0.05) and generated abundant intracellular ROS. CONCLUSIONS The novel photosensitizer PEG-MTPABZ-PyC demonstrates potent photodynamic cytotoxicity against gastric cancer cells, showing promising potential for further development in gastric cancer photodynamic therapy.

Objective To investigate the characteristics and differences of congenital endowment in senile dementia population based on the theory of five circuits and six qi.Methods Based on the cross-sectional data of China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Survey(CHARLS)in 2018,the dementia status of the population aged 60 and above in China was evaluated by using the Mini-Mental State Examination(MMSE),and the five-circuit and six-qi features at birth in the senile dementia population were analyzed by descriptive statistics and Chi-square goodness-of-fit test.Results A total of 854 patients with senile dementia were included.The five-circuit and six-qi features at birth in the senile dementia population were as follows:most of them were born at the heavenly stem of Bing while the least at the heavenly stem of Ji and Geng(P＜0.001),most of them were born at the earthly branch of Wei while the least at the earthly branch of Zi(P＜0.001),most of them were born at the yearly circuit of excessive water circuit while the least at the yearly circuit of excessive gold circuit and deficient earth circuit(P＜0.001),and most of the patients were born at sitan of taiyin damp-earth and zaiquan of taiyang cold-water while the least at sitan of jueyin wind-wood and zaiquan of shaoyang ministerial fire;no statistically significant differences were found in the dominant qi and guest qi(P＞0.05);most of the patients were born in the year of combination of circuit and qi being Shunhua while the least in the year of combination of circuit and qi being same celestial correspondence(P＜0.001),and the patients born in the year of Shunhua usually were frequently distributed in heavenly-stem and earthly-branch year of Jiawu(P＜0.001).Conclusion There is a certain relationship between the congenital endowment at birth and the incidence of senile dementia in the population of senile dementia.The circuit-qi features at birth for the prevalence of senile dementia are the yearly circuit of excessive water circuit,sitan of taiyin damp-earth and zaiquan of taiyang cold-water,and the year of the combination of circuit and qi being Shunhua.The population born at the time with the above circuit-qi features are prone to suffer the injury of the kidneys,the heart,and the spleen,and then result into illness.

Middle compartment defects,a common subtype of pelvic floor dysfunction(PFD),are primarily characterized by the prolapse of the uterus or vaginal vault.Magnetic resonance imaging(MRI)has emerged as a valuable diagnostic tool for PFD,offering superior soft tissue resolution while eliminating exposure to ionizing radiation.This review comprehensive summarizes current applications of MRI in the diagnosis and treatment of PFD,covering measurement methods,manifestations of three-level structural defects,postoperative efficacy evaluation,vaginal axial assessment,and evaluation of the mesh status.The authors suggest that MRI enables precise preoperative evaluation of three-level defects,thereby facilitating the development of personalized treatment plans.Additionally,MRI provides an accurate postoperative assessment of surgical outcomes and mesh status,offering a new basis for postoperative assessment.MRI demonstrates unique value in the diagnosis and treatment of middle compartment defects.

Objective To evaluate the perioperative safety and mid-term outcomes of laparoscopic sacrocolpopexy(LSC)and laparoscopic pectopexy(LP)for pelvic organ prolapse(POP).Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on 274 POP patients,including 178 who underwent LSC and 96 who underwent LP,between August 2017 and January 2023.The extent of prolapse and anatomical restoration were assessed preoperatively and postoperatively using the Pelvic Organ Prolapse Quantification(POP-Q)system.Quality of life outcomes were evaluated with validated questionnaires,including Pelvic Floor Distress Inventory-short form 20(PFDI-20),Pelvic Floor Impact Questionnaire-short form 7(PFIQ-7),and Pelvic Organ Prolapse/Urinary Incontinence Sexual Questionnaire-12(PISQ-12).Postoperative patient satisfaction was assessed during follow-ups.Postoperative anatomical restoration,perioperative status,and postoperative complications,recurrence,and quality of life were compared between the two groups.Multivariate logistic regression was performed to identify postoperative risk factors for recurrence.Results The operative time in the LSC group was significantly shorter than that in the LP group(P<0.05).Intraoperative blood loss was higher in the LSC group compared to that in the LP group(P<0.05).The LSC group also exhibited higher rates of de novo stress urinary incontinence and constipation(P<0.05).The mean follow-up duration was(35.91±16.90)months.The positions of the indicator points(Aa,Ba,C,Ap,and Bp)in the POP-Q classification after the operation were all better than those before the operation.The PFDI-20 score,PFIQ-7 score,and PISQ-12 score all improved compared to those before the operation(P<0.05).Comparison of preoperative and postoperative PFDI-20,PFIQ-7,and PISQ-12 scores showed no intergroup differences.Compared with the LP group,the LSC group had the lower preoperative POP-Q measurements at points Aa and Ba(P<0.05),but superior postoperative measurements for all the indicator points(Aa,Ba,C,Ap,and Bp)(P<0.05).Recurrence occurred in 28 cases in the LP group and 4 cases in the LSC group,with the LP group presenting a significantly higher anatomical recurrence rate than the LSC group did(31.46%[28/89]vs.2.41%[4/166],P<0.05).The subjective cure rate(100%)and objective cure rate(97.59%)in the LSC group were superior to those in the LP group(88.76%and 68.54%,respectively;P<0.05).The results of the multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that,after adjusting for the confounding factors,including age,gravidity,parity,body mass index,and duration of POP,the risk of recurrence after LSC surgery was 0.044 times that after LP(odds ratio[OR],0.044;95%CI,0.015-0.133;P<0.001).Conclusion Mid-term outcomes of LP with partial cervical preservation appear inferior to those of LSC,with LSC demonstrating superior anatomical restoration and lower rates of anatomical recurrence.However,improvements in sexual function and quality of life are comparable between the two procedures.Further evaluation with larger sample sizes and longer follow-up is warranted to better characterize long-term outcomes.

Objective To investigate whether or not the infusion of anti-SARS-CoV-2 antibody-positive stock plasma inducing the antibody-dependent enhancement(ADE)effect in the patients with COVID-19 complicating liver dysfunction.Methods The clinical data of 26 patients with COVID-19 complicating liver dysfunction infused with SARS-CoV-2 antibody-positive stock plasma in this hospital from December 15,2022 to January 20,2023 were analyzed retrospectively.The changes of peripheral blood mononuclear cells(MONO)count and cytokines IL-2,IL-4,IL-6,IL-10,TNF-α and IFN-γ levels were compared and analyzed before and after plasma infusion.Thirty-seven patients with COVID-19 without plasma infusion during the same period served as the control group.The situation such as peripheral blood MONO count,cytokines lev-els,throat swab SARS-CoV-2 nucleic acid test,pulmonary infection lesion absorption on 5 d of treatment were compared between the two groups.Results The proportions of peripheral blood MONO count increase in the observation group and control group were 69.23％and 59.56％respectively,the proportions of cytokines in-crease were 66.67％vs.76.92％for IL-2,22.22％vs.46.15％for IL-4,33.33％vs.38.46％for IL-6,33.33％vs.30.27％for IL-10,33.33％vs.46.15％for TNF-α and 44.44％vs.61.54％for IFN-γ,the throat swab SARS-CoV-2 nucleic acid detection negative ratio was 46.67％vs.59.09％.The proportion of the pa-tients with lesion absorption beginning was 87.50％vs.84.85％,and the differences were not statistically sig-nificant(P＞0.05).Conclusion Infusion of stock plasma containing anti-SARS-CoV-2 polyclonal antibodies in the patients with COVID-19 complicating liver dysfunction does not induce significant ADE.

Objective:To explore the produced-radiation brain damage in simulated solar particle events and to provide evidence for health risk assessment of radiation from manned deep space exploration.Methods:According to the main characteristics of solar particle events, mice were treated with total body irradiation (TBI) with 90 MeV protons in a dose range from 0.1 to 2 Gy, with irradiation dose of 0, 0.1, 0.3, 0.5, 1, 2 Gy, respectively. At 3 and 7 d after irradiation, the behavior of mice was examined using balance beam tests, rotarod tests, and new object recognition tests. Then, the density of dendritic spines and the number of Nissl bodies in the hippocampus were measured using Golgi and Nissl staining. The superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity, malondialdehyde (MDA) content, and neurotransmitter content in brain tissue were detected using the WST-8 method, TBA method, and high pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC), respectively. Besides, cell apoptosis was determined using the TUNEL method, and the dose-response relationship, a function of dose change with damage index, was analyzed using linear and linear square fitting method. Finally, the minimum radiation dose causing a significant change in all indicators of brain damage was determined as the brain damage threshold.Results:Compared to the control group, 1 Gy proton irradiation result ed in a significant decrease in the density of filopod dendritic spines ( t = 1.82, 2.30, P < 0.05) and a significant increase in abnormal Nissl bodies in the CA1 region ( t = 2.44, 3.77, P < 0.05). At 3 and 7 d after irradiation, as well as a significant increase in the DA ( t = 2.52, P<0.05) and Glu contents ( t = 4.04, P < 0.05) on day 7. In contrast, 2 Gy proton irradiation result ed in a decrease in SOD activity on day 3 ( t = 3.44, P < 0.05), and an increase in the MDA content ( t = 1.90, 2.14, P < 0.05), hippocampal cell apoptosis (t = 3.91, 3.54, P < 0.05), and 5-HT levels ( t = 2.81, 2.69, P < 0.05), together with a decrease in climbing time in the rotarod tests ( t = 2.85, 2.64, P<0.05) and propensity to recognize new objects ( t = 2.87, 2.84, P < 0.05) on days 3 and 7. Furthermore, a dose-response relationship was observed in the dose range from 0.1 to 2 Gy ( R2=0.74-0.99). Conclusions:The dose threshold of 90 MeV protons inducing brain damage in mice is inferred to be 1 Gy, and 14 dose-response models are developed, providing a biological basis for organ dose capping and risk assessment of crew experiencing short-term deep space flights.

In recent years, there has been an increasing trend regarding the incidence of anaphylaxis among children in China. Despite the existence of relevant diagnosis and treatment guidelines for regulation, due to reasons such as uneven allocation of medical resources, there are still many problems in the specific implementation process of primary health care institutions, and these problems may lead to untimely and irregular handling of allergic reactions, thereby increasing the risk for pediatric patients. This review discussed the related issues existing about the diagnosis and treatment of anaphylaxis in children in primary health care institutions.

Objective:To investigate the training effect of order-oriented medical students in Yunnan Province of China and related influencing factors and targeted suggestions, and to improve the training effect of order-oriented medical students in residency training bases in Yunnan Province.Methods:The stratified cluster sampling method was used to select 8 general residency training bases, and a questionnaire survey was performed among the 621 order-oriented students in these training bases. Finally, 616 valid questionnaires were collected. SPSS 26.0 was used to perform the two-sample rank sum test, the K-W test, and the ordered multinomial logistic regression analysis.Results:The training effect of the "5+3" order-oriented medical students in Yunnan Province was between generally good (48.29%) and good (45.37%). The effect of the provincial general training base is better than that of the municipal general training base, and most training students at the province level (167, 59.64%) thought that the training effect was good, while most of the training students at the prefecture or municipal level (194, 57.91%) thought that the training effect was generally good. When the teaching level of the teachers can meet the teaching work, the residential training effect of the order-oriented residential training students is well evaluated (197,68.17%). When skill training was carried out by the base at least once a month, most of the order-oriented trainees (96, 48.73%) thought that the training effect was good. The ordered multinomial logistic regression analysis showed that the nature of the base, sex, attitude towards policy, psychological state, teaching competency of teachers, perfection of the fund guarantee system, consistency of training plan with requirements, consistency of training process with requirements, and consistency of teaching activities with requirements were influencing factors for the training effect of "5+3" order-oriented medical students in residency training bases of Yunnan Province ( P<0.05). Conclusions:The training effect of "5+3" order-oriented medical students in residency training bases of Yunnan Province was between generally good and good. The training effect of bases can be improved by strengthening the construction of infrastructure, giving full play to the role of base linkage, perfecting the training plan, improving implementation and execution, building up a perfect fund guarantee system, enhancing the construction of general teaching team, emphasizing skill practice training, and implementing diversified training activities.
