This article reports a diagnostically and therapeutically challenging case of small intestinal marginal zone lymphoma. The patient presented with recurrent abdominal pain as the chief complaint, and imaging revealed multifocal small bowel wall thickening with high uptake, multisegmental luminal stenosis, and proximal dilation. Initial diagnostic workup, including gastroscopy, colonoscopy, and enteroscopy with biopsy, failed to establish a definitive diagnosis. Empirical anti-tuberculosis therapy was ineffective. A repeat enteroscopic biopsy performed over eight months after symptom onset eventually confirmed the diagnosis of mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) extranodal marginal zone lymphoma. Despite three different chemotherapy regimens, the patient's intestinal obstruction symptoms persisted, with imaging still showing multifocal bowel wall thickening and hypermetabolic activity. A critical diagnostic dilemma arose regarding whether the PET/CT-positive lesions represented residual lymphoma or fibrotic scarring, whether further chemotherapy adjustments were warranted, and whether surgical resection was necessary. Multidisciplinary discussion concluded that imaging had limited discriminatory value in this scenario and that surgical intervention should be pursued if feasible. The patient successfully underwent partial small bowel resection, with postoperative pathology confirming no residual lymphoma but significant fibrotic changes. The patient has since resumed a normal diet, with body weight nearly restored to pre-illness levels. This case highlights that fibrotic transformation is a common sequela of treated marginal zone lymphoma and that PET/CT may misleadingly suggest residual disease, potentially leading to unnecessary chemotherapy. Timely surgical intervention is crucial in such scenarios.

This study employed Mendelian randomization (MR) analysis to confirm the association between breast cancer and the risk of anxiety and depression, and to explore the molecular mechanisms by which lipid nanoparticles of ketamine (LNP@Ket) modulate these behaviors in a mouse model of breast cancer. Through single-cell transcriptomic analysis, the study aimed to clarify nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2)'s role in the development of anxiety and depression in these mice. Analysis of patient data from genome-wide association study (GWAS) databases supported the link between breast cancer, anxiety, and depression. In vivo experiments demonstrated that treating breast cancer mice with LNP@Ket significantly reduced anxiety and depression behaviors. The synthesis of LNP@Ket and its subsequent analysis highlighted its inhibitory effects on these behaviors. Single-cell transcriptomic sequencing identified key cells and genes affected by LNP@Ket treatment, particularly emphasizing Nrf2. Upregulation of Nrf2 in astrocytes increased the expression of antioxidant enzymes and reduced pro-inflammatory cytokines, alleviating anxiety and depression symptoms by inhibiting neuroinflammation and neurodegeneration. This comprehensive study highlights the pivotal role of Nrf2 in the therapeutic efficacy of LNP@Ket for treating anxiety and depression in breast cancer mice.

The standard system refers to the scientific organic whole formed by the internal connections of stand-ards within a certain range.The completeness of the drug standard system plays a crucial role in ensuring drug safety.Pharmacopoeia is the core of the drug standard system.This article compared the architecture of the Chi-nese Pharmacopoeia,the United States Pharmacopoeia,the European Pharmacopoeia,and the Japanese Pharma-copoeia on the aspects of overall architecture,monographs architecture,general notice architecture,general tech-nical requirements architecture,and other standard architecture,as well as the implementation of various types of standards,aiming to provide reference for the optimization and improvement of the standard system of the Chinese Pharmacopoeia.

Objective:To evaluate the efficacy of a modified continuous penetrating-suture pancreaticojejunostomy (PPJ), also known as a continuous PPJ with a U-shaped reinforcement of pancreatic section (U-PPJ), in patients with high risk of clinically relevant postoperative pancreatic fistula (CR-POPF).Methods:Clinical data of 33 patients with pancreatic tumors undergoing pancreatic surgery in the Department of Hepatobiliary Surgery, the First Affiliated Hospital of Wannan Medical College from August 2017 to December 2023 were collected, including 22 males and 11 females, aged (64.9±8.6) years old. According to the fashion of pancreaticojejunostomy, patients were divided into two groups: U-PPJ group ( n=11) and PPJ group ( n=22). The general data, incidence of CR-POPF, abdominal bleeding and other clinicopathological data were collected. Results:All patients underwent pancreatic surgery successfully and were discharged from the hospital uneventfully. Intraoperative blood loss in U-PPJ group was 200.00 (100.0, 200.0) ml, postoperative hospitalization was 13.0 (11.0, 18.0) d, and the drain removal time was 17.0 (12.0, 21.0) d, and no CR-POPF occurred. The intraoperative blood loss, postoperative hospitalization days, drain removal time, and incidence of postoperative biochemical leakage were comparable between the groups (all P>0.05). The incidence of CR-POPF in U-PPJ group was lower than that in PPJ group [0 vs. 22.7% (5/22), P<0.05]. Conclusion:U-PPJ is safe and effective in patients with pancreatic tumors and might reduce the incidence of CR-POPF.

Objective To study the applicability and optimization of computer simulation methods during the allocation of health care providers for medical evacuation on board medical trains.Methods Using Anylogic as a simulation modeling tool,the process of mass evacuation of the injured by means of medical trains was simulated.The simulated process of rescue involved the generation,categorization,treatment and surgery of the injured individuals.The allocation of health care resources was assessed based on the different rates at which the injured arrived.Results In the carriage for mild to moderate patients,24 doctors and 36 nurses could meet the need of treatment.In the carriage for critically ill ones,4 doctors and 6 nurses could meet the need when the rate at which the injured arrived was 100-200 people/an hour.When the injured arrived at the rate of 300-476 people/an hour,4 doctors and 8 nurses were needed.Conclusion Computer simulation can be feasibly used to study the allocation of human resources for health care,which can facilitate decision-making about mass evacuation of injured personnel by means of medical trains.

Purpose To investigate the clinicopathological features,molecular genetics and prognosis of high grade B cell lymphoma with concurrent MYC rearrangement and 11q aberra-tions(HGBCL-MYC-11q).MethodsThree cases of HGBCL-MYC-11q were reviewed and analyzed using hematoxylin-eosin staining,immunohistochemistry,EBER in situ hybridization and fluorescence in situ hybridization.Clinical data were collected with follow-up.Results All three patients were male,age was 10,61,and 74 years,respectively.All patients had Ann Arbor stage Ⅳ disease.All three cases were biopsies occurring in the nasopharynx,upper pharynx and ileocecus,respectively.Three cases were morphologically similar to diffuse infiltrative growth of tumor cells,moderate or moderately large cells,round to slightly irregular nuclei and easily visible mitotic figures.Focal necrosis was noted in one case.One case exhibited the distinct"starry sky"pattern.All cases expressed CD20,BCL6 and MUM1 and high Ki67 index,two cases expressed CD10 and two cases ex-pressed BCL2.CD3,CD30 and TDT were all negative.EBER in situ hybridization was all negative.FISH analyses using C-MYC break-apart probes were all positive and all cases had 11q aberrations.One case only had the 11q23.3 amplification;and one case only had the 11q24.3 loss.After a follow-up for 1-18 months,one patient died and two patients survived with disease.ConclusionHGBCL-MYC-11q is rare,morphologically similar to BL/HGBCL,with MYC rearrangement and 11q abnormali-ties.We should enhance awareness of the disease and improve more accurate diagnosis and differential diagnosis of the disease.

A domestically produced self-expanding transcatheter aortic valve controllable bending delivery system(VitaFlow? Ⅲcontrollable bending retrievable delivery system)was first used to perform transcatheter aortic valve replacement(TAVR)in a symptomatic severe aortic valve stenosis patient with severe heart failure and high risk of surgery in China on September 22,2023.The patient successfully completed TAVR under general anesthesia,with good valve position and function after the operation.Before discharge and at one month of follow-up,the patient's symptoms and degree of heart failure were significantly improved.The follow-up results of this case showed that the VitaFlow? Ⅲ controllable bending retrievable delivery system for TAVR is safe and feasible,and future prospective,multicenter clinical trials are expected to evaluate its efficacy.

Objective To provide reference for the optimization and improvement of interoperability between the standard system of the Chinese Pharmacopoeia and other standards.Methods The interoperability of various pharmacopoeia standard systems was compared by searching for citations from the Chinese Pharmacopoeia,the United States Pharmacopoeia-National Formulary,the European Pharmacopoeia,the Japanese Pharmacopoeia,and other standards,including references to domestic regulations and guidelines,standards of the International Organization for Standardization,guidelines from the International Council for Harmonisation of Technical Requirements for Pharmaceuticals for Human Use,documents of the World Health Organization,and standards from other countries and international organizations.Results In recent years,pharmacopoeias in the world had continuously increased the citation of non pharmacopoeial standards.The types,quantities,and fields of the United States Pharmacopoeia-National Formulary referencing other standards far exceed those of other pharmacopoeias.The Chinese Pharmacopoeia cites the least number of other standards.Conclusion It is suggested that the Chinese Pharmacopoeia should enhance the interoperability with other standard systems in the standards of various professional fields,enhance the openness,harmonization and advantages,and form a more complete standard system.

Objective:To analyze the risk factors of clinically-relevant postoperative pancreatic fistula (CR-POPF) after pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD) and penetrating pancreaticojejunostomy (PPJ).Methods:The clinical data of 108 patients who underwent PD and PPJ in the Department of Hepatobiliary Surgery of the First Affiliated Hospital of Wannan Medical College from January 2017 to October 2022 were analyzed retrospectively, including 65 males and 43 females, aged 65.5 (54.2, 72.0) years. The incidences of POPF, biliary fistula, abdominal bleeding and other related complications were reviewed. The related factors of CR-POPF were analyzed by univariate analysis, and the statistically significant factors were included in multivariate logistic regression analysis.Results:A total of 108 patients were successfully treated with PD, including laparoscopic PD in 76 cases (70.4%) and open PD in 32 cases (29.6%). PPJ was performed in PD, including the continuous fashion in 39 cases (36.1%), intermittent fashion in 49 cases (45.4%) and modified continuous fashion in 20 cases (18.5%). The operation time was 390.0 (314.0, 480.0) min, the intraoperative blood loss was 200.0 (100.0, 384.0) ml, the postoperative hospital stay was 12.0 (10.0, 15.0) d, and the incidence of POPF (grade B + C) was 11.1% (12/108). Body mass index, pancreatic CT value and pancreatic duct size were the significant factors of CR-POPF (all P<0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that age ( OR=0.895, 95% CI: 0.822-0.975), pancreatic CT value ( OR=0.812, 95% CI: 0.698-0.946) and pancreatic duct size ( OR=0.457, 95% CI: 0.220-0.952) were risk factors of CR-POPF after PPJ (all P<0.05). Conclusion:PPJ is a safe method of pancreaticoenterostomy, and CR-POPF may be related to younger patients, lower pancreatic CT value and the smaller pancreatic duct size.

Objective:To analyze the ultrasound characteristics of small bowel volvulus among adults and to investigate the value of ultrasound in the diagnosis of small bowel volvulus.Methods:Totally 34 adults with small bowel volvulus confirmed by clinical diagnosis or surgery and who underwent ultrasound examination at Peking Union Medical College Hospital from August 2017 to October 2022 were enrolled, including 19 males and 15 females, aged (55.0±21.8) years (range: 19 to 94 years). The clinical characteristics, CT images and ultrasound images of the patients were retrospectively reviewed, and the ultra, sound features of small bowel volvulus and its diagnostic efficacy were analyzed.Results:Abdominal pain was the typical clinical symptom of all patients. Other symptoms included 21 cases of abdominal distension, 19 cases of nausea and vomiting, and 13 cases of cessation of passage of stool or flatus. Eight patients had signs of peritonitis and 22 patients had abnormal bowel sounds. Twenty patients had a history of abdominal surgery. Twenty-seven patients underwent surgery for intestinal obstruction, and the remaining 7 patients improved after conservative treatment. All cases were evaluated by ultrasound, 11 cases showed a “whirl sign” and were diagnosed as small bowel volvulus, the diagnostic accuracy rate was 32.4% (11/34), ultrasound simultaneously diagnosed intestinal obstruction in 21 cases, 17 cases of abdominal effusion, 4 cases of intestinal wall thickening, 2 cases of abdominal mass, 1 case of intussusception, 1 case of right sided inguinal hernia. CT and ultrasound had a consistent positive discovery in 88.2% (30/34) of all the patients.Conclusion:Ultrasound is valuable in the diagnosis of small bowel volvulus and the evaluation of complications.
