As the largest cancer in the world, breast cancer has both benefits and risks from its diversified treatments. Shared decision-making can respect the patient's right to information and autonomy, consider their preferences and value orientations, and help patients obtain the most suitable treatment plan, it also can reduce their decision-making difficulties and improve their disease knowledge awareness and decision-making satisfaction. This paper reviews the definition of shared decision-making, the influencing factors, steps, tools and clinical effects of shared decision-making in the treatment decision-making of breast cancer patients, in order to provide reference for the research of shared decision-making in breast cancer patients in China.

Objective Exploring the therapeutic experience,execution intention,and efficacy of paradoxical intention therapy(PIT)for insomnia among college students compared to stimulus control therapy.Methods Eighty-one college students with insomnia were treated with PIT(PIT group,41 cases)and stimulus control therapy(stimulus control group,40 cases).A self-designed questionnaire was conducted to investigate the treatment experience and implementation of patients after one month of treatment.Two groups of patients were self-evaluated using the Pittsburgh sleep quality index(PSQI),Glasgow sleep effort scale(GSES),and self-rating anxiety scale(SAS)before treatment and one month after treatment,to evaluate the treatment effect based on changes in scores.Results After one month of treatment,the proportion of patients with a"treatment execution rate≥50%"(32/41 vs.21/40),the proportion of patients with a"reduced anxiety"treatment experience(30/41 vs.14/40),and the proportion of patients with a positive execution intention(22/41 vs.7/40)in the PIT group were all better than in the stimulus control group(P<0.05).The repeated measures ANOVA of PSQI,GSES,and SAS all showed that the time main effect was significant(P<0.01),while the group main effect and interaction effect was not significant(P>0.05).Compare before and after treatment,the PSQI(14.27±2.67 vs.6.16±2.27),GSES(10.22±1.92 vs.5.25±1.63)and SAS(54.73±5.35 vs.44.78±4.33)scores of the PIT group,and the PSQI(14.03±2.66 vs.6.67±2.01),GSES(9.98±2.02 vs.5.43±1.21)and SAS(56.13±5.62 vs.46.52±5.68)scores of the stimulation control group,all decreased after treatment(P<0.01).In the PIT group,individuals with an execution rate≥50%had higher △PSQI(8.19±3.30 vs.1.56±1.81),△GSES(4.97±2.07 vs.3.11±2.52),and △SAS(10.22±5.34 vs.6.00±3.74)compared to those with an execution rate of<50%(P<0.05).Conclusion PIT is superior to stimulus control therapy in terms of treatment experience and execution intention for insomnia.The efficacy of both therapies are similar and patients with higher execution rates have better outcomes.

Objective:To explore the short-term efficacy on 3D printing assisted reconstruction of traumatic digit joint defects using rib and costo-osteochondral autograft.Methods:From August 2022 to July 2023, 7 patients with open digit joint defects had undergone emergency primary debridement and fracture fixation in the Department of Orthopaedics, 988th Hospital of the Joint Logistics Support Force of PLA. Patients with more phalangeal defects that could not be aligned were treated with antibiotic bone cement filling in the emergency surgery. In the second stage surgery, bone cement was removed and transfer of rib cartilage graft was performed to reconstruct the digit joint defect. According to a 1∶1 3D printed hand templates, rib cartilage grafts were crafted to the shape of digit joints, and then spliced together the digit joints and bone defects for fixation. Follow-up X-ray examinations were taken and assessment of the healing status of rib and fractures of phalangeal and metacarpophalangeal bones were carried out according to the Paley fracture healing score. At the outpatient follow-up, assessment of transferred joint movement and evaluation of upper limb function were conducted according to the Evaluation Trial Standards of Upper Limb Partial Functional of Hand Surgery of Chinese Medical Association. Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) pain scores were evaluated from the affected digits and donor sites.Results:After reconstructive surgery, all 7 patients had primary healing of the wounds of hand. One patient had fat liquefaction at the donor site, and the rest had primary donor site healing. One patient received further surgery for extensor tendon repair after rib cartilage grafting due to the digital extensor tendon injury. All 7 patients were included in postoperative follow-up for 6-11 months, with an average of 9 months. All patients had excellent fracture healing according to the Paley fracture healing score. At the final follow-up, the extension and flexion of the digit joints were found at 40°-80° (average 56.2°) for proximal interphalangeal joints (4 patients), and 10° in extension and 85° in flexion for metacarpophalangeal joint (1 patient). The range of motion of the thumb interphalangeal joint (2 patients) was 20°-35° (average 27.5°). Hand function was assessed according to Evaluation Trial Standards of Upper Limb Partial Functional of Hand Surgery of Chinese Medical Association and it was found that 3 patients were in excellent, 3 in good and 1 in fair.Conclusion:This study focused on the treatment of traumatic digit joint defects by transfer of individually crafted rib cartilages in reconstruction of the defected digit joint. It significantly improves the appearance and function of the defected digit joints, especially suitable for the irregular defects of phalangeal bones.

Objective:To investigate the therapeutic efficacy of spleen-invigorating, dampness-removing and stasis-dissolving formula (SDSF) combined with endocrinotherapy for metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer (mHSPC).Methods:A retrospective case control study was conducted. The clinical data of 193 mHSPC patients treated at First Teaching Hospital of Tianjin University of Traditional Chinese Medicine, the Second Hospital of Tianjin Medical University, and Tianjin First Central Hospital from January 2018 to March 2021 were retrospectively analyzed. All patients were treated with continuous endocrinotherapy and they were divided into the combination therapy group (82 cases) and the monotherapy group (94 cases) based on whether they received SDSF treatment or not. Prostate specific antigen (PSA), serum testosterone, blood lipids (triglyceride, total cholesterol), fasting blood glucose, and international prostate symptoms score (I-PSS) and Karnofsky score were compared between the 2 groups. Kaplan-Meier method was used to analyze the progression-free survival (PFS), and log-rank test was performed. The Cox proportional risk model was used to make univariate analysis and multivariate analysis on the influencing factors of PFS.Results:A total of 176 mHSPC patients were finally enrolled and the age was 67±11 years. There were no statistically significant differences in terms of PSA, serum testosterone, triglyceride, total cholesterol and fasting blood glucose, I-PSS score and Karnofsky score between the two groups (all P > 0.05). A total of 91 mHSPC patients developed metastatic castration resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC), including the combination therapy group (40 cases) and the monotherapy group (51 cases), and 9 patients died because of the progression to mCRPC. The median PFS time of all patients was 19 months, that was 17.9 months in the monotherapy group and 20.4 months in the combination therapy group; and the difference was statistically significant between the 2 groups ( P = 0.001). Multivariate Cox regression analysis results showed that combination therapy with SDSF and the lowest testosterone level were independent influencing factors of PFS ( P = 0.001). The total cholesterol at 6-, 9-, 12-month in the combination therapy group was lower than that in the monotherapy group (all P < 0.05), triglyceride at 3-, 6-, 9-, 12-month in the combination therapy group was lower than that in the monotherapy group (all P < 0.05); and the differences in fasting blood glucose after treatment at different time points were not statistically significant between the 2 groups (all P > 0.05); I-PSS score at 9-, 12-month in the monotherapy group was lower than that in the monotherapy group (both P < 0.05). Conclusions:The combination of SDSF with endocrinotherapy can delay the progression of mHSPC, improve treatment-related complications, and enhance patients' quality of life.

Objective:To analyze the hotspots and trends of the researches on artificial intelligence (AI) in the diagnosis and treatment of traumatic brain injury (TBI).Methods:Based on the core database of Web of Science, the studies over AI in the diagnosis and treatment of TBI published from January 2000 to June 2024 were obtained by searching with the subject headings. VOSviewer software was used to analyze the publication year trend, country publication volume, country cooperation network, author publication volume, author citation frequency and author cooperation network. CiteSpace software was also used to identify key words with a significant rise in frequency over a short period of time to obtain the research trends.Results:A total of 2 662 relevant studies were retrieved, from which 677 related with AI in the diagnosis and treatment of TBI were finally enrolled. The number of published studies per year generally showed a rapid growth from 2018 to 2023. The United States had the highest number of publications as a country (362 studies). The author Camarillo had the most publications (9 studies). Rehabilitation was the keyword with the highest frequency (133 times) and the clustering topics containing the three largest number of keywords were virtual reality (VR), mild TBI, and deep learning. The keywords of mobile application, mobile health and intracranial pressure showed a significant increase in frequency from January 2022 to June 2024.Conclusions:VR technology, mild TBI and deep learning technology are the research hotspots of AI in TBI diagnosis and treatment. Mobile apps, mobile health, and intracranial pressure may be new research trends for AI in the diagnosis and treatment of TBI.

As a kind of immunosuppressive cells, myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs) are an important component of the immune microenvironment. MDSCs play a significant role in promoting tumor immune escape. In addition, non-immunological functions such as promoting angiogenesis can also promote tumor development with the deepening of research. MDSCs can promote tumor angiogenesis directly through vascular endothelial growth factor signaling pathway, or promote tumor growth and angiogenesis by secreting cytokines such as matrix metalloprotein-9, basic fibroblast growth factor, angiogenic peptide Bv8, platelet derived growth factor, exosomes, or interacting with other cells. Exploring the expansion, activation, recruitment and angiogenesis mechanism of MDSCs will provide new ideas for regulating the individualized diagnosis and treatment based on targeted MDSCs.

BACKGROUND:Irreducible femoral neck fracture was difficult to obtain anatomic reduction.As a new type of internal fixation,the femoral neck system is still blank for the treatment of non-anatomical reduced femoral neck fractures. OBJECTIVE:To explore the biomechanical stability of femoral neck system internal fixation under nonanatomical reduction in the treatment of femoral neck fractures based on finite element analysis. METHODS:CT data of the hip joint of a healthy female adult were obtained.Anatomical reduction of femoral neck fracture models with Pauwels angles of 30°,50°,and 70° were established using Mimics 21.0,Geomagic Wrap 2021,and SolidWorks 2020.The fracture proximal ends of the three anatomical reduction models were shifted upward by 2 mm along the fracture line,and three positive buttress models with different Pauwels angles were obtained.In the same way,three negative buttress models were acquired by shifting downward by 2 mm.SolidWorks 2020 was used to make the femoral neck system internal fixation,and the nine femoral neck fracture models were assembled with the femoral neck system.Then Ansys 19.0 was used for finite element analysis.The displacement distribution and maximum displacement,stress distribution and maximum stress of the femur and femoral neck system were recorded under 2100 N stress. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)When Pauwels angles were 30°,50°,and 70°,the maximum stresses of the femoral neck system appeared to be concentrated at the junction of the sliding hip screw and anti-rotation screw.The maximum femur stresses appeared to be concentrated in the medial cortex of the femur.The maximum displacement was concentrated at the upper of the femoral head and femoral neck system.(2)When Pauwels angles were 30° and 50°,the maximum displacement and maximum stress of the femoral neck system and femur were:negative buttress>anatomical reduction>positive buttress.(3)When Pauwels angle was 70°,the maximum displacement and maximum stress of the femoral neck system were:negative buttress>anatomical reduction>positive buttress;the maximum displacement and maximum stress of the femur were:negative buttress>positive buttress>anatomical reduction.(4)With the increase of Pauwels angle,the biomechanical advantage of the positive buttress was weakening.However,it was better than a negative buttress.When Pauwels angle was 30°,positive buttress was more stable than anatomical reduction.When Pauwels angle was 50°,the biomechanical difference between positive buttress and anatomical reduction became smaller.When Pauwels angle was 70°,the stability of anatomical reduction was slightly better than positive buttress.(5)If it was difficult to achieve anatomical reduction of femoral neck fracture during operation,but the positive buttress had been displaced within 2 mm,the femoral neck system could be used to offer stable mechanical fixation.It is necessary to avoid negative buttress reduction.

Objective To investigate the effect of fluid flow shear stress(FFSS)on the fluid mechanic threshold of high-mobility group box 1(HMGB1)release by synovial cells and chondrocytes.Moreover,the mechanism of chondro-cyte and synovial cell damage induced by abnormal mechanical force was investigated to provide an experimental basis for exploring the pathogenesis and pathology of temporomandibular joint osteoarthritis.Methods With the approval of the Ethics Committee for Animal Experiments of the hospital,synovial tissue and cartilage tissue blocks were obtained from the knee joints of Sprague-Dawley(SD)rats,and synovial cells and chondrocytes were cultured and digested for subsequent experiments.Synovial cells and chondrocytes of 3-4 generations were acquired,and FFSS was applied to sy-novial and cartilage cells using a fluid shear mechanical device.The cells were divided according to the FFSS values of different sizes.Synovial cells were stimulated for 1 h with 1,3,5,or 10 dyn/cm2 of FFSS,and chondrocytes were stimu-lated for 1 h with 4,8,12,or 16 dyn/cm2 of FFSS.Resting cultures(0 dyn/cm2)were used as the control group.Changes in the morphology of the cells were observed.The expression and distribution of HMGB1 and interleukin-1β(IL-1β)were observed by immunohistochemistry.The expression of HMGB1 and IL-1β in the supernatant was analyzed by ELI-SA.The protein expression levels of intracellular HMGB1 and IL-1β were detected by Western blot.Results With in-creasing FFSS,the synovial cells and chondrocytes gradually swelled and ruptured,and the number of cells decreased.With increasing FFSS,the localizationof HMGB1 and IL-1β gradually shifted from the nucleus to the cytoplasm.In synovial cells,compared with those in the control group,the expression levels of HMGB1 and IL-1β were increased both in the supernatant and cells in the 1,3,5 and 10 dyn/cm2 intervention groups(P＜0.01).In chondrocytes,com-pared with those in the control group,the expression levels of HMGB1 in the supernatant were increased in the 4,12 and 16 dyn/cm2 intervention groups(P＜0.05),and the protein expression levels of HMGB1 were significantly increased(P＜0.01).The expression levels of HMGB1 in the supernatant were significantly increased in the 8 dyn/cm2 intervention groups(P＜0.01);however,the protein expression levels of HMGB1 were significantly decreased.Compared with those in the control group,the expression levels of IL-1β in the supernatant gradually increased in the 4,8,12 and 16 dyn/cm2 intervention groups(P＜0.01).With the exception of those in the 4 dyn/cm2 group,the protein expression levels of IL-1β gradually increased with increasing FFSS(P＜0.05).Conclusion With increasing FFSS,synovial cells and chondro-cytes gradually swelled and burst,and the hydromechanical thresholds of HMGB1 release were 1 dyn/cm2 and 8 dyn/cm2,respectively.Therefore,upon stimulation with a mechanical force,synovial damage was damaged before chondrocytes.

Objective To explore the clinical value of serum protein kinase N1(PKN1),tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily member 4(TNFRSF4),and DNA damage-inducible transcription factor 4(DDIT4)in predicting lymph node metastasis and prognosis of patients with endometrial cancer.Methods A total of 180 cases of endometrial cancer patients treated in Tangshan Maternal and Child Health Hospital from October 2019 to October 2021 were selected as endometrial cancer group.In addition,180 patients with benign uterine diseases treated in this hospital during the same period were selected as the benign disease group,and 180 healthy patients who underwent physical examination in this hospital were selected as the healthy group.The endometrial cancer group was divided into 42 cases with lymph node metastasis and 138 cases without lymph node metastasis according to whether lymph node metastasis occurred.The patients were divided into poor prognosis group and good prognosis group according to the follow-up results.The levels of serum PKN1,TNFRSF4 and DD1T4 in each group were compared,the influencing factors of patient prognosis were analyzed by Logistic model,and the predictive value of serum PKN1,TNFRSF4 and DDIT4 on prognosis of patients was analyzed by drawing the receiver operating characteristic curve.Results Compared with the healthy group,the levels of serum PKN1 and DDIT4 in endometrial cancer group and benign disease group were in-creased,and the levels of serum TNFRSF4 were decreased,with statistical significance(P＜0.05).The serum levels of PKN1 and DDIT4 in lymph node metastasis group were higher than those in no lymph node metasta-sis group,and the levels of TNFRSF4 were lower than those in no lymph node metastasis group,with statisti-cal significance(P＜0.05).The proportion of poor prognosis group with low differentiation degree,positive lymphovascular space invasion and myometrial infiltration≥1/2 was higher than that of good prognosis group,and the difference was statistically significant(P＜0.05).The levels of serum PKN1 and DDIT4 in the poor prognosis group were higher than those in the good prognosis group,and the levels of TNFRSF4 were lower than those in the good prognosis group,with statistical significance(P＜0.05).Serum PKN1,DDIT4,LVSI and myometrial infiltration were risk factors for the prognosis of endometrial cancer,and serum TN-FRSF4 was protective factor for the prognosis of endometrial cancer(P＜0.05).Serum PKN1,TNFRSF4 and DDIT4 combined predicted the prognosis of patients with endometrial cancer more effectively than each serum index alone(P＜0.05).Conclusion Serum PKN1,TNFRSF4 and DDIT4 are related to lymph node metasta-sis and prognosis of patients with endometrial cancer,and have high predictive efficacy for patient prognosis.

Objective:To investigate the prevalence and predictors of delayed function independence (DFI) in patients with acute vertebrobasilar artery occlusion (VBAO) achieved successful recanalization after endovascular therapy.Methods:Patients with acute VBAO received endovascular treatment in the Departments of Neurology, the First Affiliated Hospital of University of Science and Technology and General Hospital of Eastern Theater Command, PLA from December 2015 to December 2018 were retrospectively enrolled. The demographic, clinical, laboratory and imaging data were collected. Early functional independence (EFI) was defined as the modified Rankin Scale score 0-2 at discharge, and DFI was defined as the modified Rankin Scale score 0-2 at 90 d after discharge for non-EFI patients. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to determine the independent predictors of DFI. Results:A total of 122 patients with acute VBAO were included. Their age was 61.8±11.9 years old and 91 (74.6%) were male. The median Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) score was 7, the median National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) score was 26.5, and the median posterior circulation Alberta Stroke Program Early CT Score (pc-ASPECTS) score was 9. Twenty-four patients (20.0%) had EFI; of the 98 patients with non-EFI, 18 (18.4%) had DFI. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that male (odds ratio [ OR] 0.038, 95% confidence interval [ CI] 0.002-0.658; P=0.025), cardiogenic embolism ( OR 0.116, 95% CI 0.023-0.579; P=0.009), baseline NIHSS score ( OR 1.136, 95% CI 1.040-1.242; P=0.005) and lung infection ( OR 6.089, 95% CI 1.451-25.562; P=0.014) were the independent predictors of DFI. Conclusions:Nearly 1/5 of the non-EFI patients have DFI. Male, cardiogenic embolism, lower baseline NIHSS score and without pulmonary infection are the independent predictors of DFI.
