Ischemic stroke (IS) is a prevalent neurological disorder often resulting in significant disability or mortality. Resveratrol, extracted from Polygonum cuspidatum Sieb. et Zucc. (commonly known as Japanese knotweed), has been recognized for its potent neuroprotective properties. However, the neuroprotective efficacy of its derivative, (E)-4-(3,5-dimethoxystyryl) quinoline (RV02), against ischemic stroke remains inadequately explored. This study aimed to evaluate the protective effects of RV02 on neuronal ischemia-reperfusion injury both in vitro and in vivo. The research utilized an animal model of middle cerebral artery occlusion/reperfusion and SH-SY5Y cells subjected to oxygen-glucose deprivation and reperfusion to simulate ischemic conditions. The findings demonstrate that RV02 attenuates neuronal mitochondrial damage and scavenges reactive oxygen species (ROS) through mitophagy activation. Furthermore, Parkin knockdown was found to abolish RV02's ability to activate mitophagy and neuroprotection in vitro. These results suggest that RV02 shows promise as a neuroprotective agent, with the activation of Parkin-mediated mitophagy potentially serving as the primary mechanism underlying its neuroprotective effects.

OBJECTIVE:
To investigate the safety and prognostic factors influencing the treatment of upper urinary tract urothelial carcinoma (UTUC) combined with bladder cancer (BCa) by laparoscopic simultaneous radical cystectomy and nephroureterectomy (RCNU).
METHODS:
The clinical data of patients admitted to Peking University Third Hospital for laparoscopic RCNU surgery from January 2009 to September 2023 were analyzed retrospectively. Based on the same gender, age (±5 years), history of uroepithelial tumors, underlying diseases, T-stage, N-stage, M-stage, American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) score, Charlson comorbidity index, and body mass index (BMI) (±5), 34 patients with RCNU were matched 1 ∶1 with patients with bladder cancer who underwent laparoscopic radical cystectomy (RC) alone. Kaplan-Meier survival analysis was used to calculate patient survival, and Cox proportional regression risk model was used to analyze clinical factors affecting prognosis.
RESULTS:
Of the 68 patients enrolled, the follow-up rate was 100% with a median follow-up time of 27.0 (11.7, 60.2) months. Comparison of intraoperative conditions (including operation time, estimated intraoperative bleeding, intra-operative blood transfusion, etc.) between the two groups of patients showed no significant difference (P>0.05). Comparison of preoperative creatinine and postoperative creatinine between the two groups of patients showed significant differences (P < 0.05). The perioperative Clavien grade Ⅲ-Ⅳ complication rates were 2.9% (1/34) in the RC group and 5.9% (2/34) in the RCNU group. There was no significant difference in terms of perioperative complications between the two groups. Overall survival was significantly lower in the patients receiving RCNU compared with the matched group receiving RC alone (P < 0.05). Cox regression analysis suggested that two factors, high N stage and high postoperative creatinine, were independent risk factors affecting the prognosis of patients in the 2 groups (P < 0.05).
CONCLUSION
The overall survival prognosis of patients undergoing RCNU surgery was worse compared with laparoscopic RC surgery alone during the same period. There was no clinically significant difference between the two groups in terms of operation time, intraoperative bleeding, and perioperative complications, and there were clinically significant differences in preoperative renal function and post-operative renal function.

Objective:To investigate the prevalence and potential classification of symptoms after total knee arthroplasty (TKA) in patients with knee osteoarthritis (KOA), and to analyze the differences in demographic characteristics and surgical data, compare the different potential subgroups, in order to provide a basis for clinical symptom management plans.Methods:This study was a multicenter cross-sectional survey. Through convenience sampling, patients with KOA undergoing TKA in the orthopaedic wards of four tertiary hospitals in Urumqi were selected as the study from November 2023 to February 2024. The study subjects were surveyed using a general information questionnaire, the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) for pain, the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS), and the Pitts Burgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI), and the degree of postoperative joint swelling and size of ecchymosis were measured. Latent class analysis was performed using Mplus 8.3 software, and Logistic regression analysis was conducted using SPSS 26.0 software to explore the influencing factors of the latent classes.Results:Totally 337 effective questionnaires were collected, and the recovery rate was 94.7% (337/356), and the age distribution ranged from 47 to 85 (65.19 ± 6.99) years old, with 90 (26.7%) males and 247 (73.3%) females. There were 92.3% (311/337) of TKA patients with postoperative symptom cluster. The symptom cluster of patients with TKA were identified as 3 classes. They were named as "high level pain-psychological disorder group"(12.5%, 39/311), "high bruises-moderate psychological disorders group"(25.4%, 79/311) and "low symptom burden group" (62.1%, 193/311). The results of the unordered multi-class logistic regression analysis showed that age 45-59 years ( OR = 2.367), body mass index 24.0-27.9 kg/m 2 ( OR = 0.207), living with children/parents ( OR = 6.473), and this being the second joint surgery ( OR = 0.040) were the factors influencing the "high level pain-psychological disorders group" (all P<0.05). The factors influencing the "high bruises-moderate psychological disorders group" were living with children/parents ( OR = 4.023), comorbid chronic diseases ( OR = 1.979, 3.842), and intraoperative blood loss ≤100 ml ( OR = 2.342) (all P<0.05). Conclusions:The postoperative symptom cluster of TKA patients have a relatively high incidence, and there is heterogeneity within the symptom cluster, so nurses need to identify at-risk patients early according to the characteristics of different categories and give interventions.
