Thyroid cancer is caused by multiple factors, including genetics, environment, metabolism, and the immune microenvironment, among which ionizing radiation exposure is an important risk factor for thyroid cancer. As one of the most sensitive target organs of ionizing radiation, the thyroid gland may have different risks of thyroid cancer caused by different types of ionizing radiation exposures, such as medical exposure, occupational exposure, and emergency exposure. The sensitivity of children and adolescents are higher than that of adults. The dose-response relationship still needs to be further explored. The molecular mechanism between ionizing radiation and the increased risk of thyroid cancer is complex, which may involve DNA damage and repair abnormalities, gene mutations, non-coding RNA regulation, DNA methylation, cell cycle regulation imbalance, and immune microenvironment changes. This article reviews the risk and molecular mechanisms associated with different types of ionizing radiation exposure in thyroid cancer, based on literature retrieved from CNKI and PubMed databases. It aims to provide a theoretical basis for the early monitoring, prevention, and intervention of thyroid cancer related to ionizing radiation exposure.

Post-stroke depression is a common complication after a stroke. Based on the theory of "deficiency of heart qi leading to sadness"recorded in Huangdi Neijing, our team proposes that deficiency of heart qi is the basic pathogenesis of post-stroke depression, with sadness being its main manifestation. Therefore, we advocate treating post-stroke depression from the perspective of the heart, and clinically, it can be divided into four stages: heart-liver stage, heart-lung stage, heart-spleen stage, and heart-kidney stage. Treating post-stroke depression with the principle of regulating qi and nourishing the heart, patients in the heart-liver and heart-lung stages are mainly middle-aged and young adults, with a pathological nature of qi stagnation and mild deficiency of heart qi, and therefore, the method of promoting the flow of meridians and regulating qi should be adopted. In contrast, patients in the heart-spleen and heart-kidney stages are mainly middle-aged and elderly, with a pathological nature of qi deficiency and severe deficiency of heart qi, and therefore, nourishment and tonification should be prioritized. In response to the above four stages, our team has achieved good clinical efficacy by administering Xiaoyao Powder, Baihe Dihuang Decoction, Ganmai Dazao Decoction and Jingui Shenqi Pill respectively. This study discusses the approach to treating post-stroke depression from the perspective of a "deficiency of heart qi leading to sadness" by examining three aspects: the theoretical basis of Chinese and Western medicine to treat post-stroke depression from the heart, the basic pathogenesis and staging of post-stroke depression, and the treatment principle of regulating qi and nourishing the heart. The study also briefly analyzes the clinical experience of the medications used for this condition to provide a reference for the treatment of post-stroke depression.

Objective:To investigate the causal association between immune cell and different types of sepsis by using Mendelian randomization (MR) method, and to find the immune cell phenotypes causally associated with sepsis.Methods:Summary data for various circulating immune cell phenotypes were obtained from the GWAS catalog (GCST90001391-GCST90002121). Sepsis data were sourced from the UK Biobank database. Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) were used as instrumental variables. The correlation threshold of P < 5×10 -6 was used to identify the strongly correlated instrumental variables, and the code was used to remove the linkage disequilibrium and the instrumental variables with F-value < 10. Inverse variance weighting (IVW) was used as the main research method to evaluate the stability and reliability of the results, including Cochran's Q test, MR-Egger regression and Leave one out. Reverse MR analysis was performed based on the immunophenotypic results of the removal of horizontal pleiotropy, and the immune cell phenotype with one-way causal association was obtained. Odds ratio ( OR) and 95% confidence interval (95% CI) were used to represent the effect value of the results. Results:CD16 on CD14 -CD16 + monocyte had horizontal pleiotropy in sepsis ( OR = 0.965?4, 95% CI was 0.933?5-0.998?3, P = 0.039?6). There were five immunophenotypes that had reverse causal associations with the types associated with sepsis. After excluding immune cell phenotypes with horizontal pleiotropy and reverse causation, a total of 42 immune cell phenotypes with sepsis, 36 immune cell phenotypes with sepsis (28-day death in critical care), 32 immune cell phenotypes with sepsis (critical care), 44 immune cell phenotypes with sepsis (28-day death), and 30 immune cell phenotypes had potential causal associations with sepsis (under 75 years old). After false discovery rate (FDR) correction, the correlations between BAFF-R on IgD - CD38br and sepsis (28-day death) were negative and strong ( OR = 0.737?8, 95% CI was 0.635?9-0.856?0, P = 6.05×10 -5, PFDR = 0.044?2). Conclusion:A variety of immune cell phenotypes may have a protective effect on sepsis, especially BAFF-R on IgD - CD38br expression is negatively correlated with sepsis (28-day death), which provides a new idea for immune modulation therapy in sepsis.

Objective:To investigate the curative effect of transvaginal sacrospinous ligamentopexy combined with traditional per-vaginam surgery in the treatment of moderate and severe pelvic organ prolapse.Methods:A total of 125 patients with moderate to severe pelvic organ prolapse admitted to the Third People′s Hospital of Yancheng from June 2021 to May 2023 were retrospectively selected as the study objects. They were divided into two groups according to the surgical methods. The observation group (73 cases) received transvaginal sacrospinous ligamentopexy combined with traditional per-vaginam surgery, and the control group (52 cases) received traditional Yin surgery. The primary outcome was anatomic cure rate between the two groups, and the secondary outcome was surgical index, quality of life and recurrence.Results:There were significant differences in the anatomical cure rate [78.1%(57/73) vs 61.5%(32/52)] and postoperative hospital stay between the observation group and the control group at 6 months after surgery (all P<0.05). There was no significant difference in operation time, amount of blood loss and pain degree 24 h after operation between the two groups ( P>0.05). There was no significant difference in Pelvic Floor Distress Inventory-Short Form 20 (PFDI-20) scores between the two groups before operation ( P>0.05). PFDI-20 scores in both groups were lower than those before surgery 6 months after surgery, and PFDI-20 scores in the observation group were lower than those in the control group, with statistical significance ( P<0.05). After follow-up, 3 cases (8.3%) recurred in the observation group and 6 cases (13.3%) in the control group. There was no statistical significance in the recurrence rate between the two groups ( P>0.05). Conclusions:Transvaginal sacrospinous ligamentopexy combined with traditional per-vaginam surgery can effectively treat moderate and severe pelvic organ prolapse, improve the quality of life of patients, and have a good long-term effect.

Objective:To analyze the incidence of liver function injury in patients infected with 2019-nCoV omicron variant and its influencing factors.Methods:The clinical data and laboratory findings of 897 COVID-19 patients infected with omicron variant in Zhejiang province from February 23 to July 14, 2022 were retrospectively analyzed. Patients were divide into liver function injury group ( n=243) and non-liver function injury group ( n=654) based on liver function indicators. The clinical characteristics and laboratory tests were compared between the two groups, and influencing factors of liver function injury were analyzed. SPSS 26.0 statistical software was used for data analysis. Results:The incidence of liver injury in this series was 27.09% (243/897). The median age of patients in liver injury group was older, the body mass index (BMI) was higher( Z=-6.237 and -2.166, both P<0.05), the proportions of patients with hypertension and diabetes, and with severe clinical classification were higher ( χ2=17.087, 27.509 and 12.945, all P<0.01) ; the proportion of vaccinated patients was lower ( χ2=17.766, P<0.01) than those in non-liver injury group. The levels of platelet, hemoglobin, albumin and potassium in liver injury group were lower than those in non-liver injury group ( Z=-4.631, -2.368, -10.593 and -2.141, all P<0.05), while serum ALT, AST, γ-GT, urea nitrogen, glucose and hs-CRP levels were higher than those in the non-liver injury group ( Z=-7.451, -8.663, -4.410, -3.824, -3.278 and -3.884, all P<0.01). Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that age ( OR=2.580, 95% CI 1.429-4.657, P=0.002), history of diabetes ( OR=3.650, 95% CI 1.698-7.849, P=0.001), and decreased hemoglobin ( OR=1.993, 95% CI 1.066-3.726, P=0.031) and increased hs-CRP ( OR=1.797, 95% CI 1.283-2.517, P=0.001) were risk factors associated with liver function injury, while vaccination ( OR=0.499, 95% CI 0.312-0.798, P=0.004) was the protective factor for liver function. Conclusion:Liver function injury is frequently observed in COVID-19 patients infected with omicron variant, which is linked to age, underlying disease, and elevated inflammatory markers; while vaccination can lower the risk of liver injury in infected patients.
