Objective To evaluate the diagnostic value of coiled-coil domain containing 83(CCDC83),carcinoembryonic antigen(CEA)and carbohydrate antigen(CA)199 detection in patients with colorectal cancer(CRC).Methods A total of 168 patients with colorectal diseases and 80 healthy physical examination subjects admitted to Hongqi Hospital Affiliated to Mudanjiang Medical University from September 2022 to January 2025 were selected as the study objects.Participants were classified into three groups based on pathological diagnosis and colonoscopy findings:colorectal cancer group(n=80),colorectal benign disease group(n=88),and healthy control group(n=80).Serum samples from all three groups were collected for detection of CCDC83,CEA,and CA199 expression levels.The diagnostic value was analyzed using receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curves.Results Colorectal cancer group exhibited significantly higher expression levels of CCDC83,CEA,and CA199 compared to colorectal benign disease group and healthy control group,with statistically significant differences(P＜0.05).ROC curve analysis demonstrated diagnostic value for CCDC83,CEA,and CA199,with CCDC83 showed superior specificity compared to CEA and CA199.Conclusion CCDC83,CEA and CA199 showed good diagnostic efficacy for colorectal cancer.

Objective:To explore the association between cumulative blood pressure (BP) and the risk of cerebrovascular disease (CVD) in older adults.Methods:This retrospective cohort study consecutively selected 4 480 older adults who participated in the Chinese Longitudinal Healthy Longevity Survey from 2008 to 2009 as the study subjects. The cumulative BP was calculated using the area under the curve from measurements taken at baseline (2008-2009), the first follow-up (2011), and the second follow-up (2014). The subjects were grouped with the quartiles (Q1-Q4) of cumulative systolic blood pressure (SBP), diastolic blood pressure (DBP), and pulse pressure (PP). The Cox proportional hazards regression models were used to analyze the hazard ratios (HR) and 95% CI for the association between cumulative BP and the risk of CVD among older adults. The restricted cubic spline function was employed to examine the potential dose-response pattern between cumulative BP and the risk of CVD. Results:During a total of 40 230 person-years of follow-up, with a mean follow-up duration of (8.98±2.16) years, 768 new cases of CVD were identified. The older adults in the highest quartile (Q4) of cumulative SBP, DBP, and PP had a significantly higher risk of CVD compared to those in the lowest quartile (Q1), with a HR of 1.68 (95% CI: 1.36-2.06), 1.67 (95% CI: 1.36-2.06), and 1.52 (95% CI: 1.24-1.84), respectively (all P<0.001). For every 10 mmHg (1 mmHg=0.133 kPa)×year increase in cumulative SBP, DBP, and PP, the risk of CVD increased by 2% ( HR=1.02, 95% CI: 1.01-1.03), 3% ( HR=1.03, 95% CI: 1.01-1.05), and 2% ( HR=1.02, 95% CI: 1.01-1.03), respectively (all P<0.05). The restricted cubic spline model revealed a linear positive correlation between cumulative SBP, DBP, and PP with the risk of CVD among older adults (all P for nonlinearity>0.05). When cumulative SBP, DBP, and PP exceeded 791.9 mmHg×years, 462.9 mmHg×years, and 323.6 mmHg×years, corresponding to an average BP level of 132.0 mmHg, 77.2 mmHg, and 53.9 mmHg, respectively, the risk of CVD began to increase. Conclusions:Elevated long-term cumulative BP may increase the risk of CVD in older adults. Caution is warranted when SBP, DBP, and PP exceed 132.0 mmHg, 77.2 mmHg, and 53.9 mmHg, respectively.

Objective:To evaluate the clinical efficacy and the mid- and long-term follow-up outcomes of transanal anaplasty for treating rectovestibular fistula.Methods:The clinical data of 68 female infants diagnosed with rectovestibular fistula undergoing transanal anoplasty at the Department of Pediatric Surgery, the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from Oct 2014 to Dec 2023 was collected. Postoperative complications, perineal and anal appearances, and defecation function of postoperative children aged 3 years or older were recorded.Results:After surgery 68 children followed-up for 6 months of recent with short-term complications in 6 cases, including 3 cases of incision infection, 2 cases of rectal mucosal prolapse, and 1 case of anal stenosis. Rintala score was (18.65±1.99). Twenty-five children underwent anorectal manometry, no significant differences were observed in the maximal systolic pressure of the anal canal( t=-0.596, P=0.563) and the maximum systolic time( t=-0.183, P=0.854). The resting pressure( t=-3.050, P=0.005), functional length( t=2.696, P=0.012), and positive rate of rectal anal inhibitory reflex( χ2=6.382, P=0.012) of the anal canal were significantly lower than those of the normal group( P<0.05). Conclusions:Transanal anaplasty for the treatment of rectovestibular fistula in girls has a low incidence of complications. It results in a normal perineal body appearance, good anal bowel control, and high quality of life.

Objective To observe the effects of repeated intravitreal injections of ranibizumab and aflibercept on cor-neal morphology of patients with neovascular age-related macular degeneration(nAMD),diabetic macular edema(DME)or retinal vein obstruction(RVO).Methods In this prospective study,64 patients(64 eyes)who underwent therapy in the injection center of the Ophthalmology Department of our hospital from June 2021 to June 2022 were enrolled,including 19 nAMD patients,20 DME patients and 25 RVO patients.Among these patients,29 were treated with aflibercept(40 g·L-1)and 35 were treated with ranibizumab(10 g·L-1).Monocular injections were adopted for all patients,and 3+pro re nata(PRN)therapy was used.Confocal microscope was used for corneal nerve examination,and corneal endo-thelial microscope was used to measure corneal thickness(CT)and corneal endothelial cells.The CT,corneal endothelial cell density(ECD),coefficient of variation(CV),average cell size(ACS),proportion of hexagonal cells(Hex％),cor-neal nerve fiber length(CNFL),corneal nerve fiber density(CNFD)of patients with nAMD,DME and RVO after repeated intravitreal injections of anti-vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF)drugs were compared,and those parameters at 1 month after injection of different anti-VEGF drugs were compared with the baseline.Results Before injection,ECD in the DME group was lower than that in the nAMD and RVO groups,and the ACS in the DME group was higher than that in the nAMD and RVO groups(all P＜0.05).There was no significant difference in the other indexes among the three groups(all P＞0.05).After 3 injections of anti-VEGF drugs,the ECD in the DME group was lower than that in the nAMD and RVO groups,the ACS in the DME group was higher than that in the nAMD and RVO groups,and the CNFL in the DME group was lower than that in the nAMD and RVO groups(all P＜0.05).The ECD decreased compared with that before injection from the 2nd injection of aflibercept in the nAMD group(all P＜0.05).Hex％decreased significantly after each injection compared with the baseline(all P＜0.05).Other indexes have no significant differences from the baseline(all P＞0.05).In the RVO group,ECD decreased from the 2nd ranibizumab injection compared with the baseline(all P＜0.05).Conclu-sion Repeated intravitreal injections of anti-VEGF drugs can reduce the Hex％and ECD to a certain extent.After injec-tions,CNFL in the DME group is significantly lower than that in the nAMD and RVO groups.

Objective:To assess the accuracy of two-dimensional (2D) photographs in measuring esthetic parameters of the maxillary anterior teeth by comparing them with measurements obtained from three-dimensional (3D) dental models.Methods:A total of one hundred volunteers (49 males, 51 females, aged 18-23 years) were recruited from School and Hospital of Stomatology, Wuhan University from January to February 2024. 3D digital models of their dentitions were obtained using an intraoral scanner, and standardized frontal 2D intraoral photographs were captured with a digital camera. The lengths, widths and width/length ratio of the bilateral incisors, lateral incisors and canines were measured on both the 3D digital models and the 2D intraoral photographs. The width ratios of adjacent maxillary anterior were also calculated on the 2D intraoral photographs and the frontal view of 3D digital models.Results:The widths of lateral incisors [(5.85±0.60) mm] and canines [(4.73±0.71) mm] and the lengths of canines [(8.72±0.96) mm] in the 2D intraoral photographs were significantly lower than those in 3D digital models [(6.65±0.59), (7.76±0.60), (8.90±0.86) mm] ( t=-18.24, P<0.001; t=-54.43, P<0.001; t=-4.40, P<0.001), while there were no significant differences in the lengths and widths of the other teeth ( P>0.05). The width/length ratios measured from the 2D intraoral photographs for the lateral incisors and canines (0.74±0.08, 0.55±0.08) were significantly lower than those measured in the 3D digital models (0.84±0.09, 0.88±0.09) ( t=-19.68, P<0.001; t=-50.21, P<0.001), and the width/length ratio of the central incisors showed no significant difference between the two groups ( P>0.05). The width ratios of canines/lateral incisors and lateral incisors/central incisors measured on the 2D intraoral photographs (0.72±0.06, 0.85±0.11) were significantly smaller than those measured in the frontal view of 3D digital models (0.75±0.06, 0.89±0.11) ( t=-9.31, P<0.001; t=-6.58, P<0.001). Conclusions:There is a difference between 2D and 3D measurement results of teeth in the esthetic area and the magnitude of the difference varies with their position in the dental arch. When analyzing the measurement of the anterior teeth, it is necessary to choose the appropriate method according to the target tooth position.

ObjectiveTo evaluate the clinical safety of Naoxintong （NXT） capsules after marketing， find out the potential risk factors of the drug as soon as possible， and reveal the incidence， nature， and clinical manifestations of the adverse events （ADE） and adverse reactions （ADR） of NXT capsules， so as to provide a basis for safe use of the drug in clinical practice. MethodA prospective， large-sample， multi-center observational cohort study was conducted to monitor all the 7 345 inpatients and outpatients orally taking NXT in 14 hospitals in China from January to December in 2018， with at least one follow-up. The demographic characteristics， disease type， NXT medication， ADR occurrence， characteristics， and prognosis of the patients were collected. SPSS 23.0 was used for single-factor and multivariate logistic regression to predict the influencing factors of ADR. ResultThe male and female patients accounted for similar proportions. There were 5 081 patients （79.40%） aged ≥60 years and 3 153 patients （49.27%） with body mass index （BMI） exceeding the normal standard. There were 344 （5.38%） patients with a history of allergy to medicines and food， 9 （0.14%） patients with a family history of allergy， and 52 （0.81%） patients with a history of allergic diseases. The ADRs associated with NXT occurred in 22 patients， with the incidence of 0.34%. The clinical manifestations of ADR appeared in 31 cases， involving 10 organs/systems， of which gastrointestinal system damage was the most common （17， 54.84%）. All ADRs were mild or moderate. Most ADRs （19， 86.36%） occurred within 4 weeks after administration. The patients with alleviated NXT-associated ADRs accounted for 81.82%. No indicators related to significant increases in ADR risks were found. ConclusionNXT is well tolerated in the general population. The hospital centralized monitoring for the clinical safety of oral Chinese patent drugs based on HIS data and Web tracking and follow-up system is an essential means for the post-market research on the safety of drugs.

As the final resolution for end-stage lung disease, lung transplantation can not only significantly prolong the survival, but also remarkably improve the quality of life of recipients. In recent decades, with the advancement of surgical techniques, immunosuppressants and post-transplantation management, the quantity of lung transplantation has been surged around the globe. However, the shortage of donor lung has severely restricted the development of lung transplantation. It is necessary to develop innovative approaches to expand the donor pool. The number of donors and effective preservation and functional maintenance of potential donor lungs play a key role in expanding the donor pool. The quality of donor lung is a critical precondition to ensure the long-term survival of lung transplant recipients. Preservation and functional maintenance of donor lung are of significance for guaranteeing the quality of lung allograft. In this article, research progresses on the management and maintenance of donor lung before procurement, the procurement of donor lung and the preservation and functional maintenance of lung allograft were reviewed, aiming to provide reference for the development of lung transplantation in clinical practice.
