Objective To investigate the expression and clinical significance of serum microRNA-144-3p(miR-144-3p)and microRNA-126-3p(miR-126-3p)in patients with intracerebral hemorrhage(ICH).Methods From February 2022 to April 2023,120 ICH patients who underwent treatment at our hospital were recruited as the ICH group.They were separated into a good prognosis group and a poor prognosis group based on the modified Rankin Scale(mRS)score After 6 months treatment Additionally,110 healthy individuals who underwent physical examination at our hospital were included as the control group.Clinical data of patients were collected and analyzed.Enzyme linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA)was applied to detect serum levels of tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α)and vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF)indicators.Real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction(qRT-PCR)was applied to detect the expression levels of serum miR-144-3p and miR-126-3p.Pearson method was applied to analyze the correlation between serum miR-144-3p,miR-126-3p,TNF-α,and VEGF levels in ICH patients.Multivariate Logistic regression was applied to analyze the factors affecting the prognosis of ICH patients.ROC curve was applied to analyze the predictive value of serum miR-144-3p and miR-126-3p for the prognosis of ICH patients.Results In the control group,the serum miR-144-3p was 1.02±0.02,the TNF-α was(19.15±6.79)pg/ml,the VEGF level was(1.05±0.18)ng/ml,and the serum miR-126-3p level was 1.04±0.05.The values in the ICH group were 2.12±0.23,(48.32±8.43)pg/ml,(6.56±1.49)ng/ml,and(0.53±0.12),respectively.There was a statistically significant difference between the two groups(P＜0.05).Pearson analysis results showed that serum miR-144-3p was positively correlated with TNF-α and VEGF levels in ICH patients(r=0.496,0.542,P＜0.05),while serum miR-126-3p was negatively correlated with TNF-α and VEGF levels(r=-0.493,-0.526,P＜0.05).There were significant differences in the serum levels of miR-144-3p,miR-126-3p,TNF-α,VEGF,and NIHSS score between different prognostic groups(P＜0.05).Multivariate logistic analysis revealed that serum miR-144-3p,miR-126-3p,TNF-α,and VEGF were all factors affecting the poor prognosis of ICH patients(P＜0.05).The area under the curve(AUC)of serum miR-144-3p,miR-126-3p,and combined prediction of prognosis in ICH patients was 0.851,0.886,and 0.952,respectively,the combined prediction of the two was more valuable(Zcombination-miR-144-3p=3.371,Zcombination-miR-126-3p=2.791,P＜0.05).Conclusion The expression of miR-144-3p in the serum of ICH patients increases,while the expression of miR-126-3p decreases.The two may serve as biological markers for predicting the prognosis of ICH patients,and the combination of the two is more valuable in predicting the prognosis of ICH patients.

Objective To explore the therapeutic effect of precise disconnection of pargastric varices guided by endoscopic ultrasound in the treatment of esophagogastric variceal bleeding.Method A retrospective analysis was conducted on 20 patients with cirrhosis esophagogastric variceal bleeding treated with endoscopic ultrasound-guided precise disconnection of pargastric varices from January 1,2024 to December 31,2024.The efficacy was analyzed.Result All 20 patients successfully completed the precise disconnection of pargastric varices under the guidance of endoscopic ultrasound.The injection of tissue gel combined with the placement of spring coils(14 cases)and the injection of tissue gel alone(4 cases)successfully blocked the pargastric varices.All patients did not experience perforation,esophageal and cardia stenosis,massive bleeding,septicemia,or ectopic embolization.One patient who received tissue gel alone had slight bleeding from the pargastric varices after surgery and improved after 3 days of treatment to reduce portal vein pressure.Another one patient who received tissue gel alone had a low-grade fever and normal body temperature after 3 days of anti-infection treatment.Conclusion Precise disconnection of pargastric varices under the guidance of endoscopic ultrasound has a good therapeutic effect on esophagogastric variceal bleeding,with fewer complications such as ectopic embolization,massive bleeding,infection,and perforation.However,close follow-up observation is still needed to address the issue of pargastric varices.

This article systematically explores the synergistic value of endoscopic evaluation and local resection techniques in diagnosing clinical complete response (cCR) after neoadjuvant therapy for rectal cancer. Endoscopic techniques, including high-definition narrow-band imaging, endoscopic ultrasound, and confocal laser endomicroscopy, significantly improve the detection rate of microscopic residual lesions and provide objective evidence for clinical decision-making through standardized scoring systems. Local resection techniques, serving as both pathological verification and minimally invasive treatment, offer organ preservation opportunities for patients with cCR. The integrated three-step diagnostic pathway of "endoscopic screening-radiological reassessment-local resection confirmation" enhances the specificity of cCR diagnosis while reducing unnecessary radical surgeries. However, standardizing technical implementation, deepening multidisciplinary collaboration, and integrating molecular diagnostics remain critical directions for future development.

Objective To analyze the diagnostic value and misdiagnosis reasons of MRI in benign and malignant prostatic transitional zone lesions.Methods A total of 147 patients with prostatic transitional zone lesions were selected.The diagnostic value and misdiagnosis reasons of MRI in benign and malignant prostatic transitional zone lesions were analyzed.Results The accuracy rate of MRI diagnosis was 78.23％,and the misdiagnosis rate was 21.77％.MRI had high consistency with the pathological diagnosis results(Kappa=0.816,P＜0.001).MRI had high diagnostic value in benign and malignant prostatic transitional zone lesions,and the area under the curve(AUC)was 0.767.The shape,signal uniformity,boundary condition,capsule condition,diffusion weighted imaging(DWI)signal intensity,apparent diffusion coefficient(ADC)value,and time-signal intensity curve type of the lesion were all independent risk factors for misdiagnosis of benign and malignant prostatic transitional zone lesions using MRI(P＜0.05).Conclusion MRI has high diagnostic value in benign and malignant prostatic transitional zone lesions.The causes of misdiagnosis are lesion shape,signal uniformity,boundary condition,capsule condition,DWI signal intensity,ADC value,and time-signal intensity curve type.

Background and Aims:Cholangiocarcinoma,a rare malignant tumor,is difficult to diagnose and often detected at an advanced stage,limiting treatment options to palliative care.Conventional chemotherapy drugs have poor efficacy against cholangiocarcinoma,making the search for new treatments critical.This study was conducted to investigate the effects of Huai'erjunzhi on the malignant biological behavior of human cholangiocarcinoma cells and its relationship with the TGF-β/Smad pathway,aiming to provide a theoretical basis for the use of Huai'erjunzhi in cholangiocarcinoma treatment. Methods:Human normal liver cells(L-02)and human cholangiocarcinoma cells(HuCCT1)were incubated with different concentrations of Huai'erjunzhi for various durations.Cell proliferation was assessed,and the half-maximal inhibitory concentration(IC50)was calculated.HuCCT1 cells were divided into a negative control group(no intervention),a positive control group(15 mg/L cisplatin),and different Huai'erjunzhi intervention groups(1/5 IC50,2/5 IC50,and IC50 based on preliminary experimental results).Scratch and Transwell assays were used to measure cell migration and invasion,while Western blot was employed to detect the expression of proteins related to the TGF-β/Smad pathway in HuCCT1 cells. Results:Only high concentrations of Huai'erjunzhi(＞312.5 mg/L)significantly inhibited the proliferation of L-02 cells.Huai'erjunzhi significantly inhibited the proliferation of HuCCT1 cells at concentrations above 5 mg/L in a concentration-dependent manner(all P＜0.05),with IC50 values of 138.52 mg/L at 24 h,99.41 mg/L at 48 h,and 113.52 mg/L at 72 h.Compared with the negative control group,the positive control group and the three Huai'erjunzhi intervention groups(20,40,and 100 mg/L)exhibited reduced migration distance,decreased invasive cell numbers,lower expression of TGF-β1,Smad2,Smad3,Smad4,N-cadherin,Snail,and Slug,and increased expression of E-cadherin(all P＜0.05).Compared with the positive control group,these changes in the Huai'erjunzhi groups were less pronounced but showed a clear concentration-dependent relationship(all P＜0.05). Conclusion:Huai'erjunzhi can potentially inhibit the malignant biological behavior of HuCCT1 cells by inhibiting the TGF-β/Smad pathway.
