Objective:To summarize the best evidence for exercise intervention in elderly patients with sarcopenia in intensive care unit (ICU) through literature search, and provide a reference for clinical implementation of early exercise intervention in this population through evidence-based practice.Methods:① Summary of best evidence: relevant literature on exercise intervention for elderly patients with sarcopenia in ICU, including guideline, evidence summary, expert consensus, systematic review, and original study [quasi-experiment and randomized controlled trial (RCT)] from UpToDate Clinical Advisor, Ovid database, National Guideline Clearinghouse (NGC), National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE), Cochrane Library, Embase, Cumulative Index to Nursing and Allied Health Literature (CINAHL), PubMed/Medline, SinoMed, CNKI, Wanfang Database, VIP, and Yimai Tong Guideline Network were systematically searched. The search period covered from the establishment of these databases up to August 24, 2023. The quality of the literature was evaluated by two researchers with methodological expertise in evidence-based medicine, and the evidences were extracted and summarized. ② Evidence-based practice: the elderly patients with high risk of sarcopenia who had been hospitalized in the ICU for more than 7 days from January to April 2024 were enrolled as the research subjects, and they were divided into a control group and an intervention group using convenience sampling method. The control group received routine intensive care nursing. The intervention group implemented exercise intervention based on the actual situation of the patients, the baseline review was conducted before evidence application, and the effectiveness of evidence application at 7 days and 14 days was evaluated.Results:① A total of 19 pieces of literature were included, including 4 guidelines, 1 summary of evidence, 4 expert consensuses, 4 systematic reviews, and 6 original studies (1 quasi-experiment, 5 RCT). After literature quality evaluation, all 19 articles were enrolled. Finally, 31 pieces of best evidence were extracted from eight aspects, including assessment and diagnosis, multidisciplinary cooperation, indication, preparation before intervention, intervention program, safety monitoring, post-intervention evaluation, and special task. ② Finally, a total of 30 patients were enrolled in the intervention group, of which 17 completed 14 days of rehabilitation exercise, and 13 completed 7 days of rehabilitation exercise. Twenty-seven patients were enrolled in the control group, of which 17 completed 14 days of monitoring, and 10 completed 7 days of monitoring. Clinical evidence application results showed that the patients in the intervention group did not experience adverse events such as increased heart rate, extubation, or physical discomfort. The skeletal muscle mass index (SMI) in both groups was gradually decreased with the prolongation of intervention duration, but the 7-day SMI in the intervention group was significantly higher than that in the control group (kg/m 2: 8.61±2.66 vs. 6.65±1.50, P < 0.01). Conclusion:By summarizing the best evidence and evidence-based practice of exercise intervention for elderly patients with sarcopenia in ICU, this study confirmed the feasibility due to safe and effective of implementing early exercise intervention for elderly sarcopenia patients in ICU.

Anxiety disorders are one of the most epidemic and chronic psychiatric disorders. An incomplete understanding of anxiety pathophysiology has limited the development of highly effective drugs against these disorders. GPR17 has been shown to be involved in multiple sclerosis and some acute brain injury disorders. However, no study has investigated the role of GPR17 in psychiatric disorders. In a well-established chronic restraint stress (CRS) mouse model, using a combination of pharmacological and molecular biology techniques, viral tracing, in vitro electrophysiology recordings, in vivo fiber photometry, chemogenetic manipulations and behavioral tests, we demonstrated that CRS induced anxiety-like behaviors and increased the expression of GPR17 in basolateral amygdala (BLA) glutamatergic neurons. Inhibition of GPR17 by cangrelor or knockdown of GPR17 by adeno-associated virus in BLA glutamatergic neurons effectively improved anxiety-like behaviors. Overexpression of GPR17 in BLA glutamatergic neurons increased the susceptibility to anxiety-like behaviors. What's more, BLA glutamatergic neuronal activity was required for anxiolytic-like effects of GPR17 antagonist and GPR17 modulated anxiety-like behaviors via BLA to ventral hippocampal CA1 glutamatergic projection. Our study finds for the first and highlights the new role of GPR17 in regulating anxiety-like behaviors and it might be a novel potential target for therapy of anxiety disorders.

Objective:To investigate the significance of MLH1 protein expression and MLH1 gene methylation rate between metastatic solid pseudopapillary tumor of pancreas (SPT) and non-metastatic SPT, and to explore the correlation between MLH1 gene methylation and SPT metastasis.Methods:Twelve metastatic SPT patients admitted to Peking University People's Hospital, Rizhao Central Hospital and Chaoyang Central Hospital of Liaoning Province from January 2009 to May 2022 were studied retrospectively, including 3 males and 9 females, with a median age of 47 years old, ranging from 21 to 73 years old. Thirty non-metastatic SPT patients with clear diagnosis, clear medical history and complete follow-up data from pathological database of Peking University People's Hospital from January 2009 to May 2017 were selected as the control group, including 12 males and 18 females, with a median age of 42 years old, ranging from 34 to 69 years old. Clinical data such as gender, age and pathological data were collected. Immunohistochemical expression of MLH1 protein and methylation of MLH1 gene were detected by pathological paraffins.Results:There was no significant difference in general data between the two groups (all P>0.05). Among the 12 metastatic SPT patients, 4 cases metastasized to liver, 2 to spleen, 2 to lung, 2 to lymph nodes, 1 to mediastinum, and 1 to sacrum. Compared with the non-metastatic tissue, the MLH1 protein deletion in metastatic pancreatic lesions (metastatic SPT-P) and metastatic lesions (metastatic SPT-M) were increased [both 33.3%(4/12)], and the difference was statistically significant (both Chi square=5.00, both P=0.041). Compared with 0 (0/30) MLH1 gene methylation rate in non-metastatic SPT tissues, the methylation rate of MLH1 gene in metastatic SPT-M and metastatic SPT-P tissues [both 30% (3/10)] were higher, with statistical significance (both Chi square=0.96, both P=0.032). Conclusion:Compared with non-metastatic SPT, the loss rate of MLH1 protein expression and MLH1 gene methylation are increased in metastatic SPT. MLH1 methylation may occur before metastasis, which can be used as a predictor of SPT metastasis.

Objective:
To investigate The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) molecular classification of endometrial cancer (EC) and endometrial atypical hyperplasia (AH) treated with fertility-sparing therapy.
Methods:
A total of 46 EC and AH patients who received fertility-sparing therapy and TCGA molecular classification tested by next generation sequencing, in Peking University People’s Hospital from June 2020 to December 2021, were retrospectively collected. We analyzed the relationship between molecular classification and clinicopathological factors and treatment outcomes.
Results:
Of the 46 patients, including 40 EC and 6 AH patients, 70.5% (32 patients) had complete remission (CR) after treatment, with median CR time of 8 months. The cases were distributed as no specific molecular profile (NSMP; n=34, 73.9%) subtype mainly, microsatellite instability-high (MSI-H; n=7, 15.2%), POLE ultra‑mutated (n=3, 6.5%), and copy number high (CNH; n=2, 4.3%). Patients with MSI-H subtype had lower body mass index (24.0±5.5 kg/m2), more family history of tumor (6/7), more with loss of mismatch repair protein expression by immunohistochemical (7/7), and higher Ki67 expression level (3/3). Patients in MSI-H subgroup had the lowest CR rate at 6 months (0/6, p=0.019), and survival analysis showed that such patients were less likely to achieve CR than those with NSMP subtype (p=0.022). Subgroup analysis of patients with NSMP showed that, age ≥30 years and diabetes mellitus related with longer treatment time to CR (p=0.01 and p=0.059, respectively). In addition, CR was obtained in 2 (2/3) POLE ultra‑mutated cases and 1 (2/2) CNH case, respectively.
Conclusion
TCGA molecular classification relates with the treatment response in patients with EC and AH treated with fertility-sparing therapy. Patients with MSI-H subtype have poor treatment efficacy.

Objective:To investigate the molecular classification of endometrial carcinoma (EC) and atypical endometrial hyperplasia (AEH) treated with fertility-sparing therapy, and to analyze its relationship with clinicopathological factors and treatment efficacy.Methods:A total of 46 EC and AEH patients who received fertility-sparing therapy and molecular classification tested by next generation sequencing in Peking University People's Hospital from June 2020 to December 2021, were retrospectively collected. The relationships between molecular classification and clinicopathological factors and treatment outcomes were analyzed.Results:(1) Of the 46 patients, including 40 EC and 6 AEH patients, 32 cases (71%, 32/45) had complete response (CR) after treatment, with median CR time of 8 months, 6 cases (13%, 6/45) had partial response, and 8 cases (25%, 8/32) had recurrence. (2) The cases were distributed as no specific molecular profile (NSMP) 34 cases (74%, 34/46) subtype mainly, high microsatellite instability (MSI-H) 7 cases (15%, 7/46), POLE ultra-mutated 3 cases (7%, 3/46), and copy number high (CNH) 2 cases (4%, 2/46). Patients with CNH had the hightest serum cancer antigen 125 (CA 125) level [(34.3±35.2) kU/L]. MSI-H subtype had more family history of tumors (6/7), more with loss of mismatch repair (MMR) protein expression by immunohistochemical (7/7), and higher nuclear antigen associated with cell proliferation (Ki-67) expression level (3/3). (3) Patients in MSI-H subgroup had the lowest CR rate at 6 months (0/6; P=0.019), and survival analysis showed that they were less likely to achieve CR than those with NSMP subtype ( P=0.022). Subgroup analysis of patients with NSMP showed that age ≥30 years related with longer treatment time to CR ( P=0.010). In addition, CR was obtained after treatment in 2/3 POLE ultra-mutated cases and 2/2 CNH, respectively. Conclusions:Molecular classification relates with the treatment response in patients with EC and AEH treated with fertility-sparing therapy. Patients with MSI-H subtype have poor treatment efficacy, and patients with NSMP need to be further studied and predict treatment benefit. However, there are few cases in POLE ultra-mutated and CNH subtypes, which need further clinical research.

Objective:To investigate the efficacy and pregnancy outcome of fertility-preserving treatment for patients with stage Ⅰa, grade 2 endometrial cancer (EC).Methods:Clinical data was retrospectively collected for EC or atypical endometrial hyperplasia (AEH) patients treated in Peking University People's Hospital, Foshan First People's Hospital of Guangdong Province and First Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University, from 2010 to 2019. Inclusion criteria for fertility-preserving treatment included: (1) Age ≤45 years. (2) EC with histological differentiation of G 1, G 2 or endometrial AEH. (3) EC disease should be stage Ⅰa, confined to the endometrium without myometrial invasion, lymph node or extrauterine metastasis. Treatment regimen: patients were given oral progestin therapy and endometrial pathology was evaluated every three months. Patients were divided into three groups as G 2 EC group, G 1 EC group and AEH group based on the histological differentiation. Oncological and pregnancy outcomes were compared among them. Results:(1) Totally 57 eligible patients were included in this study, including 11 cases with G 2 EC, 22 cases with G 1 EC, and 24 cases with AEH. (2) Oncological outcome: among the three groups of G 2 EC, G 1 EC and AH, the complete remission rates (9/11, 91% and 96%, respectively) and recurrence rates (3/9, 30% and 22%, respectively) were not significantly different (all P>0.05). Median remission time was significantly longer in the G 2 EC group than those in the other two groups (8, 6 and 4 months; P=0.046). Among 9 G 2 EC patients who recurred after complete remission, three patients relapsed at 7, 18 and 53 months, respectively. All 3 patients chose fertility-sparing treatment again, and all achieved complete remission after retreatment. (3) Pregnancy outcome: among the three groups, the assisted reproduction technology rates (4/8, 5/18 and 36%, respectively) and pregnancy rates (6/8, 5/18 and 36%, respectively) had no significant difference ( P>0.05). However, time interval to pregnancy was shorter in G 2 EC patientsthan the other two groups (4, 9 and 22 months, respectively; P=0.006). Conclusions:Fertility-preserving treatment for patients with stageⅠa, G 2 endometrial cancer, may obtain a relatively high remission rate and an acceptable pregnancy rate. However, further exploration is needed due to the limited number of cases.

OBJECTIVE:
To carry out genetic testing for a XXY fetus suggested by non-invasive prenatal testing (NIPT).
METHODS:
G-banding karyotyping, fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) and chromosomal microarray analysis (CMA) were performed on amniocytes from the fetus. The genitalia of the fetus was also examined by Doppler ultrasonography. The result was verified with peripheral blood samples from its parents and a brother.
RESULTS:
The fetus was found to have a 46,XX karyotype. CMA showed presence of sequences from Yp11.2 (2.635 Mb) and Yp11.31p11.2 (3.706 Mb). FISH assay suggested that the SRY fragment on Yp has translocated to Xpter. No karyotypic or pathogenic CNVs was detected in its parents and brother. The fetus was ultimately diagnosed with 46,XX (SRY positive) male syndrome.
CONCLUSION
The combination of G-banding karyotyping, FISH, and CMA is of great significance for attaining accurate prenatal diagnosis for this fetus.

Objective:To explore the effect of previous intestinal resection on anastomotic fistula within 30 days after surgery in Crohn′s disease.Methods:The clinical data from 92 Crohn′s disease patients who underwent intestinal resection and anastomosis at the Department of General Surgery in Shanghai Ninth People′s Hospital, Shanghai Jiaotong University School of Medicine from Jan 2016 to Sep 2019. Patients were divided into no previous intestinal resection group ( n=45) and previous intestinal resection group ( n=47). The relationship between previous intestinal resection and postoperative anastomotic leak in Crohn′s disease patients with intestinal resection and anastomosis was analyzed. Results:A total of 11 cases (12% leak rate) underwent postoperative anastomotic leak. There were 2 leaks in patients with no previous history of intestinal resection, while 9 leaks in patients with previous bowel resection (χ 2 =4.722, P=0.03). The OR of the postoperative anastomotic leak in Crohn′s disease patients with previous intestinal resection compared with no previous intestinal resection group was 5.092 (95% CI: 1.035-25.048). Patients with 1 previous resection (24 cases) had a leak rate of 13%, whereas patients with >1 previous resection episodes (23 cases) had a leak rate of 26%. The number of previous resection episodes correlated with an increasing risk for clinical anastomotic leak (correlation coefficien r=0.995). Conclusions:Previous intestinal resection is an independent risk factor for ensuing postoperative anastomotic leak in Crohn′s disease patients with intestinal resection and anastomosis.
