Objective:To summarise the main points of operation during thyroid surgery using bilateral axillo-breast approach (BABA) with a domestic robot and to analyse the learning curve.Methods:From May. 2023 to Oct. 2023, we retrospectively analysed the clinical data of 38 patients who underwent thyroid surgery with domestically manufactured robot via BABA attending the Department of Thyroid and Breast Surgery of the 960th Hospital of PLA Joint Logistics Support Force, proposed and constructed learning curves using cumulative and analytical methods to study the minimum number of learning cases required for the loading time of assistants and surgeon-in-charge with da Vinci surgical experience to transition from the initial learning stage to the proficiency stage. The age, BMI, surgical time (loading time, operating time), postoperative drainage time, and number of lymph nodes dissected were compared among patients at different stages of the learning curve.Results:A total of 38 thyroidectomy patients successfully underwent surgery, with an average surgical time of (176.61 ± 47.98) minutes. After 18 cases, the assistant's loading time shortened and stabilized at (42.20 ± 3.44) minutes. The operator reached peak proficiency at the 18th case (loading time, operating time), which was considered the dividing point between the learning phase and the proficiency phase. During the learning phase, the average surgical time was (209.72 ± 49.28) minutes, operation time: (165.44 ± 49.93) minutes, while in the proficiency phase, the average surgical time decreased to 146.80 ± 18.34 minutes, operation time: (104.60 ± 19.01) minutes. There were no statistically significant differences in baseline characteristics such as age, BMI, postoperative drainage time, or the number of central compartment lymph nodes dissected between the two phases ( P > 0.05) . Conclusion:Over the results of this study, it was shown that for robosurgeons with experience in da Vinci robotic surgery, the transition from the learning stage to the proficiency stage could be considered after crossing the learning curve for 18 cases, and that assistants could become proficient in loading techniques after 18 procedures.

Objective To explore the materials and embolization technique employed in precision superselective transarterial embolization for the treatment of acute renal hemorrhage.Methods The data of 50 patients with acute renal hemorrhage who underwent precision superselective transarterial embolization were retrospectively analyzed.The angiographic findings,embolic materials and embolization methods were collected.The main outcome measures were technical success rate,clinical efficacy and renal function.Results In this study,44 patients had positive angiographic findings.The clinical success rate was 90.9%(40/44)after first precision superselective transarterial embolization.In patients of failure of first embolization,3 patients underwent successful repeated embolization and 1 patient refused repeat embolization.Empirical embolization was carried out among the 6 patients with negative angiographic findings.In 32 patients with complete data for estimated glomerular filtration rate(eGFR),there was no statistical difference before and those measured 7 d after precision superselective transarterial embolization.Conclusion Precision superselective transarterial embolization technique is an effective method for the treatment of acute renal hemorrhage,preserving renal function.

Objective To analyze the multi-target mechanism of Paeoniflorin in the intervention of oral submucosal fibrosis(OSF)systematically,based on molecular dynamics simulation and network pharmacology.Methods Identify potential targets of Paeoniflorin were predicted by using database.OSF-related disease targets and identified drug-disease intersecting targets were screened.Gene Ontology(GO)and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes(KEGG)enrichment analysis were conducted to validate the molecular binding capabilities between Paeoniflorin and core targets.Finally,molecular dynamics simulations were performed to verify binding stability.Results A total of 20 overlapping targets were identified,including key genes such as transforming growth factor(TGF)-β1,interleukin(IL)-6,and tumor necrosis factor(TNF)-α.TGF-β1,IL-6,and TNF formed the core hub.The enrichment analysis revealed that the target molecules were significantly enriched in the TGF-β1,phosphatidylinositol 3-kinease-actin(PI3K-Akt),and nuclear factor κB(NF-κB)signaling pathways.Molecular docking confirmed high affinity binding of Paeoniflorin to targets including TGF-β1,while molecular dynamics simulations verified stable interactions between Paeoniflorin and both TGF-β1 and B-cell lymphoma-2 targets.Conclusion This study revealed that Paeoniflorin inhibits the inflammatory-fibrotic cascade of OSF through synergistic regulation of TGF-β1/Smad,PI3K-Akt and NF-κB pathways.

Objective:To clarify the prognostic significance of 1q21 amplification in multiple myeloma(MM),and explore the efficacy and prognosis of ixazomib in the treatment of MM patients with 1q21 amplification.Methods:A retrospective analysis of clinical data was conducted on 77 patients with newly diagnosed MM who were hospitalized in Zhongshan Hospital,Xiamen University from January 2010 to December 2022.To analyze the clinical features of MM patients with 1q21 amplification,evaluate the mitigation rate and survival treated with ixazomib-based regimens.Results:Among the 77 newly diagnosed MM patients,40 patients had 1q21 amplification,while 37 didn't.Multivariate Cox regression analysis revealed that 1q21 amplification was an independent risk factor affecting the prognosis of MM patients(P＜0.05).Compared to patients without 1q21 amplification,those with 1q21 amplification had poorer progression-free survival(PFS)and overall survival(OS)(both P＜0.05).When the 1q21 amplification ratio exceeded 66.7％,both PFS and OS were worse(P＜0.05).There were no statistical differences in the deep remission rate(≥VGPR),overall response rate and PFS between the 1 q21 amplification positive and negative groups treated with ixazomib-based regimens(P＞0.05),but OS showed a significant difference(P＜0.05).Among the patients who switched to ixazomib treatment from bortezomib,there was a statistically significant difference in the complete response rate(P＜0.05).Compared to other treatment regimens,ixazomib-based regimens resulted in a significant reduction in adverse reactions such as peripheral neuropathy(P＜0.05).Conclusion:Ixazomib-based chemotherapy regimens can overcome the poor prognosis associated with 1q21 amplification and improve mitigation rates and PFS in patients.Ixazomib has low incidence of adverse reactions,good safety profile and prolonged duration of therapy.

High myopia (HM) is a leading cause of low vision and blindness worldwide and is becoming a visual health concern globally.The complicated pathogenesis of HM remains an intense focus.Recently, the role of inflammation in HM has been gaining increasing attention.Based on the changes in the levels of local intraocular inflammatory cytokines and markers of systemic inflammation, this article reviews the relationship between inflammation and HM from local inflammatory cytokines in the eye and systemic inflammation, discusses the potential mechanisms of interleukin, transforming growth factor-β, matrix metalloproteinase-2, monocyte chemotactic protein-1, etc.in the pathogenesis of HM, which means that inflammation participates in the occurrence and development of HM by causing retinal cell apoptosis, scleral tissue remodeling, and lens volume changes.Moreover, inflammatory cytokines in the peripheral blood of HM patients are significantly elevated.Inflammatory parameters, such as the neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio, are positively correlated with axial length, suggesting that systemic inflammation may also influence the pathological process of HM.Further investigation into the role of inflammation in HM may provide new insights into identifying predictive biomarkers and therapeutic targets for HM.
