Objective:To investigate the effectiveness and safety of secondary cytoreductive surgery (SCS) in patients with platinum-sensitive recurrent epithelial ovarian cancer who progressed after first-line maintenance therapy with poly adenosine diphosphate ribose polymerase inhibitor (PARPi).Methods:Clinical pathological data and prognostic information were retrospectively collected from 30 ovarian cancer patients who underwent SCS between January 2018 and June 2024. The Kaplan-Meier method was used to analyze the second progression-free survival (PFS2) time and 3-year overall survival (OS) rate.Results:(1) Primary treatment: the median age at diagnosis was 51.3 years. A total of 40% (12/30) patients underwent primary debulking surgery with an expectation of achieving no gross residual disease (R0), while 60% (18/30) received neoadjuvant chemotherapy and interval debulking surgery. Optimal cytoreduction was achieved in 93% (28/30) of patients. BRCA1/2 gene testing was performed in 29 patients (testing rate 97%, 29/30), identifying 11 BRCA-mutated (37%, 11/30) and 18 BRCA wild-type (60%, 18/30) patients. The median duration of PARPi maintenance therapy among the 30 patients was 11.9 months; patients with BRCA gene mutations had a median duration of 19.2 months, while those with BRCA wild-type had a median duration of 10.1 months. (2) Secondary surgery: pathologically confirmed recurrence patterns, single lesion in 9 patients (30%, 9/30), oligo-lesion (2 lesions) in 3 patients (10%, 3/30), and multi-lesion (≥3 lesions) in 18 patients (60%, 18/30). Among the 30 patients, optimal cytoreduction was achieved in 97% (29/30) of SCS patients, with suboptimal cytoreduction in 1 patient (3%, 1/30). Adjuvant chemotherapy included platinum+paclitaxel in 24 (80%, 24/30) patients and platinum+liposomal doxorubicin in 6 (20%, 6/30) patients. PARPi re-treatment was administered to 17 patients (57%, 17/30) after chemotherapy. (3) Efficacy and safety: as of the follow-up cutoff in June 2024, the median follow-up time was 28.0 months. A total of 19 (63%, 19/30) patients experienced the next recurrence. The median PFS2 time after SCS was 18.5 months. Recurrence occurred in 7 BRCA-mutated and 12 BRCA gene wild-type patients. Median PFS2 time was significantly longer in BRCA-mutated patients compared to BRCA wild-type patients (25.7 vs 14.1 months; P=0.028). Three deaths occurred during follow-up, resulting in a 3-year OS rate of 90%. Among the 30 patients, postoperative complications occurred in 4 patients (13%, 4/30). One patient developed a ureteral fistula on 7 days post-SCS requiring ureteral stenting, and one patient was transferred to the intensive care unit on 1 day post-SCS due to hypovolemic shock. No deaths occurred within 30 days after SCS. Conclusion:For platinum-sensitive recurrent ovarian cancer patients progressed after first-line PARPi maintenance therapy who are anticipated to achieve R0 resection, SCS represents a safe and effective second-line treatment option.

Chronic atrophic gastritis （CAG）， a common digestive system disease， has an unclear pathogenesis. Currently， it is mostly believed to be related to Helicobacter pylori （Hp） infection， immune factors， dietary factors， bile reflux， long-term use of antibiotics and anti-inflammatory drugs， and other factors. Ferroptosis is a regulated cell death mechanism that is iron-dependent and characterized by disruption of iron metabolism and accumulation of lipid peroxides. More and more studies have found that ferroptosis is closely related to the onset of CAG. Professor LI Diangui， a master of traditional Chinese medicine， first proposed the turbid toxin theory， which holds that spleen deficiency and turbid toxin is the main pathogenic mechanism of CAG. Abnormal iron metabolism regulation is a prerequisite for the accumulation of turbid toxin in CAG， and ferroptosis is in accordance with the pathogenic mechanism （spleen deficiency and turbid toxin） of CAG. This article explores the pathological mechanism of spleen deficiency and turbid toxin in CAG from the perspectives of iron metabolism， oxidative stress， and lipid peroxidation， providing theoretical support of traditional Chinese medicine for the modern research on CAG. It enriches the modern scientific connotation of the turbid toxicity theory and provides new ideas and breakthrough points for the clinical treatment of CAG.

Objective:To compare the efficacy of the horizontal plate plus raft screws above the acetabulum and fixation with screws only for acetabular fractures combined with dome impaction in the aged patients.Methods:A retrospective cohort study was conducted to analyze the clinical data of 20 aged patients with acetabular fractures combined with dome impaction, who were admitted to Tianjin hospital between May 2013 and January 2023, including 5 males and 15 females, aged 61-84 years [(72.2±7.3)years]. According to Letournel and Judet classification, 13 patients had anterior column fracture, 5 anterior column fracture combined with posterior transverse fracture and 2 two-column fracture. All the patients underwent open reduction and internal fixation through an anterior approach. Of them, 11 patients were treated with the fixation with the horizonal plate plus raft screws above the acetabulum (plate plus raft screw group) and 9 with the screws only (screw only group). The operative time, intraoperative blood loss, and intraoperative fluoroscopy times were compared between the two groups. The quality of fracture reduction was evaluated with the Matta′s radiographic criteria at 3 days after surgery and the function of the hip joint was assessed with Merle D′Aubigné and Postel scoring system at 3 months after surgery and at the last follow-up as well as the excellent and good rate at te last follow-up. The occurrence of postoperative complications was observed.Results:All the patients were followed up for 6-18 months [(13.1±3.1)months]. There were no significant differences in the operative time, intraoperative blood loss or intraoperative fluoroscopy times between the two groups ( P>0.05). According to the Matta′s radiographic criteria at 3 days after surgery, patients with anatomical reduction and satisfactory reduction accounted 6 and 5 in the plate plus raft screw group, compared to 5 and 4 respectively in the screw only group ( P>0.05). The values of Merle D′Aubigné and Postel score at 3 months after surgery and at the last follow-up were (14.0±2.4)points and (15.8±2.2)points in the plate plus raft screw group, which were higher than those in the screw only group [(11.0±2.6)points and (13.0±3.1)points] ( P<0.01). The values of Merle D′Aubigné and Postel score at the last follow-up of both groups were further enhanced from those at 3 months after surgery ( P<0.01). At the last follow-up, 3 patients were rated excellent, 6 good, 1 fair and 1 poor in the plate plus raft screw group, with an excellent and good rate of 81.8%, while in the screw only group, 3 were rated good, 2 fair and 4 poor, with an excellent and good rate of 33.3% ( P<0.05). One patient in the plate plus raft screw group and 5 in the screw only group had displacement of the dome impaction fragment combined with traumatic arthritis after surgery ( P<0.05). Conclusion:For acetabular fractures combined with dome impaction in the aged patients, the horizontal plate plus raft screw above the acetabulum can effectively improve the function restoration of the hip joint and reduce the occurrence of the displacement of the dome impaction fragment and traumatic arthritis after surgery compared to the fixation with screws only.

ObjectiveTo investigate the therapeutic effect and mechanism of coptisine on chronic atrophic gastritis （CAG） in rats based on the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase （PI3K）/protein kinase B （Akt）/mammalian target of rapamycin （mTOR） signaling pathway. MethodA CAG rat model was induced by multiple factors， including sodium salicylate， N-methyl-N′-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine （MNNG）， and irregular feeding. The successfully modeled rats were randomly divided into the model group， folic acid group， and high- and low-dose coptisine groups. The high- and low-dose coptisine groups were given coptisine （50， 10 mg·kg^-1， respectively）， and the folic acid group was given folic acid at 2 mg·kg^-1 for 60 days. The pathological changes were detected by hematoxylin-eosin （HE） staining. The ultrastructure of gastric mucosal cells was observed by electron microscopy. Serum pepsinogen Ⅰ （PGⅠ）， pepsinogen Ⅱ （PGⅡ）， and PGⅠ/PGⅡ ratio （PGR） were detected by immunoturbidimetry. Serum gastrin-17 （G-17） level was detected by radioimmunoassay. The content of interleukin-6 （IL-6）， tumor necrosis factor-α （TNF-α） and interleukin-1β （IL-1β） in serum of rats was detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay （ELSIA）. Western blot analysis was used to detect the expression levels of TGF-β₁， PI3K， phosphorylated-Akt （p-Akt）， mTOR， and phosphatase and tensin homolog deleted on chromosome 10 （PTEN） in gastric mucosa. The mRNA levels of TGF-β₁， PI3K， Akt， mTOR， PTEN， microtubule-associated protein light chain 3Ⅱ （LC3Ⅱ）， and Beclin-1 were detected by real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction （Real-time PCR）. ResultCompared with the normal group， the model group showed atrophy and reduced number of intrinsic glands in the gastric mucosal tissues， as well as inflammatory cell infiltration. The ultrastructure of gastric mucosal cells in the model group displayed nuclear condensation， reduced and swollen mitochondria， and abnormal structure. The serum levels of G-17， PGⅠ， PGR， and the protein and mRNA levels of PTEN in gastric tissues were significantly lower in the model group （P<0.01）， while serum levels of IL-6， IL-1β， TNF-α， and the protein and mRNA levels of TGF-β₁， PI3K， Akt， and mTOR in gastric tissues were significantly higher （P<0.01）. Compared with the model group， various drug intervention groups showed different degrees of improvement in pathological damage and gastric mucosal cell ultrastructure， significantly increased serum levels of G-17， PGⅠ， and PGR （P<0.05，P<0.01）， and significantly decreased levels of IL-6， IL-1β， and TNF-α （P<0.05，P<0.01）. The high-dose coptisine group significantly downregulated the protein and mRNA levels of TGF-β₁， PI3K， Akt， and mTOR （P<0.05，P<0.01）. ConclusionBerberine has a therapeutic effect on CAG in rats， possibly exerting a protective effect on gastric mucosa by inhibiting inflammation and blocking the PI3K/Akt/mTOR signaling pathway.

The innovation of integrating medical treatment and prevention mechanisms is a key task deployed by the government, aiming to promote the construction of a Healthy China and address the prevalent "treatment over prevention" mindset in healthcare services and society. Vaccination is an effective strategy for preventing and controlling infectious diseases; however, adult vaccination rates in China remain low due to insufficient awareness and enthusiasm among the public and healthcare professionals. In recent years, various regions have begun to explore the model of physicians in medical institutions prescribing vaccines to improve vaccination rates. This article analyzes the positioning, current implementation status, and challenges of vaccine prescriptions, and proposes recommendations advocating policy formulation, improving service models and supporting measures, improving funding mechanisms, and strengthening publicity and education to promote the widespread implementation and effectiveness of vaccine prescriptions.

Objective:To recognize the overall situation of the core competency of medical professional postgraduate, analyze the advantages and disadvantages of the training process, and provide basis for better optimization and revision of training objectives and training plans.Methods:An anonymous online questionnaire was conducted among 264 postgraduates majoring in clinical medicine to recognize the cognition and self-evaluation of core competence, and analyze the differences in scores of different grades and types. SPSS 23.0 was used for independent-samples t test; and one-way analysis of variance to analyze categorical variables. Results:The doctoral degree students' core competency results were higher than those of master degree students, and those of the senior students were higher than junior students ( P<0.05). "System Improvement Ability" [master degree students (2.94±1.07), first-year students (2.82±0.97)], "Patient Management" [(first-year students (2.77±1.22)], "Academic Research" [first-year students (2.90±1.03)], and 4 other indicators were the weakness of students (all less than 3 scores). Conclusion:The students have a good sense of professional identity for doctors. The different depth of the clinical practice education is the possible cause which brings about the differences among students with different degrees. We should focus on strengthening the training for the "shortcomings" in the core competence of students.
