Anesthesia was induced as follows: Sufentanil was intravenously injected at a rate of 0.5 μg/kg, remimazolam was intravenously injected at a rate of 0.3 mg/kg in group R, propofol was intravenously injected at a rate of 2.0-2.5 mg/kg in group P, and cisatracurium besilate was intravenously injected at a rate of 0.2 mg/kg after loss of consciousness in two groups. The patients were mechanically ventilated after tracheal intubation. Anesthesia was maintained as follows: Remimazolam was intravenously injected at a rate of 0.5-1.0 mg·kg -1·h -1 in group R, propofol was intravenously injected at a rate of 4-10 mg·kg -1·h -1 in group P, and remifentanil was intravenously infused at a rate of 0.25-2.00 μg·kg -1·min -1, maintaining intraoperative bispectral index value of 40-60. The success rate of sedation was recorded, and non-inferiority tests were conducted. The time to loss of consciousness, emergence time, extubation time, recovery time of orientation, time of stay in post-anesthesia care unit and occurrence of delayed emergence were recorded. Liver function and renal function were measured before operation and within 24 h after operation. The occurrence of abnormal alanine transaminase, abnormal aspartate transaminase, abnormal creatinine and abnormal urea was recorded. The occurrence of adverse reactions during and after operation was recorded. Results:The success rates of sedation were 98.6% and 99.3% in group R and group P, respectively, there was no statistically significant difference in the success rate of sedation between the two groups ( P>0.05), and the difference in the success rates of sedation between the two groups was -0.007 (95% confidence interval-0.0301-0.0161), which met the pre-set non-inferiority criteria(95% confidence interval >-0.055). Compared with group P, the time to loss of consciousness and recovery time of orientation were significantly prolonged, and the incidence of delayed emergence was increased ( P<0.05), and no statistically significant changes were found in the emergence time, extubation time, time of stay in post-anesthesia care unit and severity of postoperative nausea and vomiting in group R ( P>0.05). There was no statistically significant difference in the abnormal rates of alanine transaminase, aspartate transaminase, creatinine and urea before and after operation between the two groups ( P>0.05). Conclusions:The efficacy of remimazolam-based anesthesia in daytime laparoscopic cholecystectomy is not inferior to that of propofol-based anesthesia.

The sirtuin 1(SIRT1)is an important NAD+-dependent deacetylase that has attracted much attention in ophthalmic research in recent years. This is because the expression of SIRT1 in ocular tissues and its function are inextricably linked to the pathogenesis and progression of many ocular diseases, including dry eye, glaucoma, cataract and diabetic retinopathy. Through in-depth investigations, we have found that SIRT1, as a key regulatory protein, has a profound impact on the pathophysiological processes of ocular diseases through a variety of mechanisms, such as regulating apoptotic programs, modulating oxidative stress, mediating inflammatory responses and maintaining normal mitochondrial function. These findings indicate that SIRT1 plays an important protective role in ocular diseases. The aim of this article is to comprehensively review the latest research findings on SIRT1 in ophthalmic diseases in recent years, and hopes to provide new ideas and methods for the prevention and treatment of ophthalmic diseases by thoroughly analyzing the mechanism of action of SIRT1.

Laparoscopic pancreaticoduodenectomy(LPD) poses a high risk of intraoperative bleeding due to the complex anatomy and rich blood supply in the pancreatic head region. This paper innovatively proposes a blood flow control technique system for LPD, adopting a strategy of “priority devascularization and pre-blocking”.By first addressing the peripheral collateral blood supply and the gastroduodenal artery, and then performing dual-system pre-blocking, the dorsal pancreatic artery and the inferior pancreaticoduodenal artery are treated in situ through a combined middle and left posterior approach. This progressive blood flow control method enhances surgical safety and oncological radicality, offering a new paradigm for the development of minimally invasive pancreatic surgery.

Pain assessment in children is vital in clinical practice. Accurate evaluation of pain intensity in children is the prerequisite for implementing effective analgesic interventions, it is necessary to chose age-specific assessment tools tailored to developmental stages of children. The degrees of patin reported by children themselves are the gold standard for evaluation, and self-assessment should be prioritized when feasible. In addition, behavioral and physiological assessments also show good reliability and validity. This review summarizes current domestic and international researches on pediatric pain assessment tools and their clinical applications, aiming to provide reference for optimizing pain evaluation in pediatric practice.

Objective:To establish a prognostic prediction model for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) using bioinformatics approaches to guide personalized therapy.Methods:Based on bioinformatics, the differential analysis was carried out on the GSE19665 data set of The Cancer Genome Atlas-Liver Hepatocellular Carcinoma (TCGA-LIHC) and Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO), and the same differentially expressed genes were obtained by means of Wayne diagram. Functional enrichment analyses using Gene Ontology, Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genome, and Gene Set Enrichment Analysis were conducted on co-expressed genes. Based on clinicopathological and transcriptomic profiles, TCGA-LIHC patients were stratified into training ( n=246) and internal validation ( n=116) cohorts, with external validation using Japanese liver cancer data ( n=231) from the International Cancer Genome Consortium. A LASSO-Cox regression-derived risk scoring model was established and visualized as a nomogram. The clinical utility of the risk score was evaluated through multiple analytical approaches.A nomogram incorporating the risk score was developed, and its predictive performance was validated using the concordance index (C-index) and calibration curves. The measurement data of normal distribution were expressed as mean±standard deviation( ± s), and the t-test was used for comparison between groups. The measurement data with non-normal distribution were expressed as M( Q1, Q3), and the Wilcoxon test was used for comparison between groups. The Kruskal-Wallis test was applied to evaluate the significance of the differences among multiple groups. The prognostic value of the risk score was estimated using Kaplan-Meier analysis and ROC curve. Multivariate Cox regression clarified the independent prognostic value of the risk score. Results:Differential analysis identified 457 commonly expressed differentially expressed genes (DEGs). Enrichment analysis revealed that these common DEGs were significantly enriched in pathways related to the cell cycle of tumor cells.The LASSO-Cox regression model selected eight candidate genes ( CENPA, NDC80, ANXA10, NEIL3, G6 PD, MCM10, SOCS2, MMP1). The predictive risk score generated using these eight genes demonstrated a strong association with the overall survival of HCC patients.The nomogram combining the predictive risk score with clinicopathological features exhibited high predictive performance in both the training and validation cohorts. Furthermore, the prognostic value of this risk score was successfully validated in the external validation cohort. Conclusion:This study successfully developed a new predictive model that accurately predicts the 1-year, 3-year and 5-year survival rates of patients with liver cancer. This can serve as a potential tool to help guide patients in personalized treatment.
