Objective:To explore the application value of part-cut jejunal transection in digestive tract reconstruction of totally laparoscopic total gastrectomy.Methods:The propensity score matching and retrospective cohort study was conducted. The clinicopathological data of 112 patients with gastric cancer who underwent totally laparoscopic total gastrectomy in The Second Affiliated Hospital of Anhui Medical University from June 2018 to September 2022 were collected. There were 81 males and 31 females, aged (70±8)years. Among the 112 patients, 60 patients undergoing diges-tive tract reconstruction by Roux-en-Y anastomosis with part-cut jejunum were set as the part-cut group, and 52 patients undergoing digestive tract reconstruction by traditional Roux-en-Y anasto-mosis were set as the traditional group. Observation indicators: (1) propensity score matching status and comparison of clinical data of patients between the two groups after matching; (2) intraopera-tive and postoperative conditions; (3) follow-up. Comparison of measurement data with normal dis-tribution between groups was conducted using the independent sample t test. Comparison of count data between groups was conducted using the chi-square test or Fisher exact probability. Com-parison of ordinal data was conducted using the nonparametic rank sum test. Propensity score matching was performed using the 1∶1 nearest neighbor matching method, with the caliper value of 0.02. Results:(1) Propensity score matching status and comparison of clinical data of patients between the two groups after matching. Of the 112 patients, 90 patients were successfully matched, with 45 cases in each of the part-cut group and the traditional group. After propensity score matching, the elimination of body mass index, clinical TNM staging confounding bias ensured comparability. (2) Intraoperative and postoperative conditions. After propensity score matching, the total operation time and digestive tract reconstruction time of patients in the part-cut group were (217.0±15.1)minutes and (34.7±1.8)minutes, versus (252.6±21.9)minutes and (52.6±7.4)minutes in the traditional group, respectively, showing significant differences in the above indicators between the two groups ( t=?8.97, ?15.66, P<0.05). (3) Follow-up. After propensity score matching, 90 patients were followed up postoperatively for (47±15)months. During the follow-up, no patient in either group received secondary surgery, and there was no death. There were 3 cases and 10 cases of Roux stasis syndrome in the part-cut group and the traditional group, respectively, showing a significant difference between the two groups ( χ2=4.41, P<0.05). Conclusion:Compared with traditional Roux-en-Y anastomosis, the Roux-en-Y anastomosis with part-cut jejunum in totally laparoscopic total gastrectomy can signifi-cantly shorten the time for digestive tract reconstruction and reduce the incidence of postoperative Roux stasis syndrome.

The organ system-integrated curriculum system overcomes the limitations of single teaching methods and the drawbacks of neglecting holism and interconnectedness, effectively transforming knowledge into competency. Tianjin Medical University has pioneered the "double-track integrated teaching reform" to align with the objective of training undergraduate clinical medical talents. This system is centered on the eight major human body systems, breaking traditional disciplinary boundaries and achieving systematic integration of basic medical and clinical courses. First implemented in 2019 in the "5+3" clinical and pediatric programs, the system has undergone three rounds of teaching practice since 2021, forming a distinctive integrated curriculum system. Using the circulatory system as a model, the reform reorganized teaching content, developed specialized textbooks, and assembled interdisciplinary teaching teams, fostering a shared instructional approach through cross-disciplinary training. The teaching model integrates theoretical and practical learning with curriculum-based ideological and political education, employing problem-based learning to encourage self-directed study and leveraging an online-offline mixed approach to enhance teaching effectiveness. An innovative closed-loop assessment system incorporating formative evaluation has been established, integrating multidimensional feedback from exam analysis, student and faculty questionnaire surveys, and teaching supervision to continuously optimize curriculum development. The reform has significantly enhanced medical students' professional competencies and overall capabilities, providing an innovative paradigm for training high-level medical professionals in the new era.

Background and purpose:Epithelial ovarian cancer(EOC)has a poor prognosis and is prone to developing resistance to platinum-based chemotherapy.Exosomes are currently believed to be involved in platinum resistance in ovarian cancer.This study explored the role and mechanism of exosomes on platinum resistance of ovarian cancer.Methods:Through ultracentrifugation,exosomes were isolated and analyzed using electron microscopy,particle size studies,and Western blot for detailed exosome analysis.We detected the expression levels of exosomal proteins and related signaling pathways.Exosomal protein expression profile was analyzed by proteomics.Key differential proteins were screened by intersecting with existing drug resistance datasets.Furthermore,patients diagnosed with EOC via pathological analysis at the Fudan University Shanghai Cancer Center from August 2023 to August 2024,who underwent surgery and fulfilled the eligibility requirements,were gathered to examine the link between the expression of interferon-stimulated gene 15(ISG15)in serum exosomes and resistance to platinum medication.The expression levels of related proteins in serum exosomes were quantitatively detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA).Receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve was plotted to explore the predictive value of serum exosomal protein in ovarian cancer resistance.Results:Exosomes derived from platinum-sensitive and drug-resistant ovarian cancer cells were extracted and proteomic analysis was further performed.We identified 9 differential proteins associated with platinum-resistance and found the key molecule interferon-stimulated gene 15(ISG15).Compared with sensitive cells,the expression of ISG15 in exosomes of drug-resistant ovarian cancer cells was significantly upregulated.Exosome tracer tests showed that exosomes were successfully taken up by ovarian cancer receptor cells.After coculture with drug-resistant exosomes,the expression level of ISG15 in ovarian cancer receptor cells was increased.Knockdown ISG15 in EOC cells decreased the expression of ISG15 in exosomes,and incubation of ISG15-knockdown exosomes decreased the cell viability on the condition of platinum drugs,indicating that ISG15 in exosomes regulated platinum resistance of ovarian cancer cells.Moreover,ISG15 could regulate the expression of multidrug resistance protein 1(MDR1)through phosphoinositide 3-kinase(PI3K)/protein kinase B(AKT)/nuclear factor-kappa-light-chain-enchancer of activated B cells(NF-κB)signaling pathway.This study included a total of 87 patients.Clinical serum samples also showed that the expression of ISG15 in exosomes was higher in platinum-resistant ovarian cancer patients than in sensitive ovarian cancer patients.Using serum exosomal ISG15 as an indicator to distinguish between sensitivity and resistance,the area under ROC curve was 0.779(P<0.05),cutoffvalue was 27.35ng/mL,sensitivity was 70.2%,and specificity was 76.4%.Conclusion:ISG15 in exosomes can regulate the expression of MDR1 in ovarian cancer cells through PI3K/AKT/NF-κB signaling pathway,and promote platinum resistance in ovarian cancer cells.

Turning to critical illness is a common stage of various diseases and injuries before death. Patients usually have complex health conditions, while the treatment process involves a wide range of content, along with high requirements for doctor′s professionalism and multi-specialty teamwork, as well as a great demand for time-sensitive treatments. However, this is not matched with critical care professionals and the current state of medical care in China. Telemedicine, which shortens the distance of medical professionals and the gap of disease diagnosis and treatments in various regions through electronic information, can effectively solve the current problem. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop a standardized, high-quality visualization telemedicine round system .Therefore, experts have been organized to search domestic and foreign literature on telemedicine round for critically ill patients and to form this consensus based on clinical experiences so as to further improve the level of critical care treatments in regions.
