Objective To investigate the effect of different decompression methods on the efficacy of the unilateral biportal endoscopy(UBE)in the treatment of severe lumbar spinal stenosis(LSS).Methods A total of 203 elderly patients with LSS who underwent UBE treatment in our hospital from September 2021 to June 2024 were selected and divided into the unilateral group(102 cases)and the bilateral group(101 cases)according to different decompression methods.The unilateral group underwent unilateral decompression during operation,while the bilateral group underwent bilateral decompression(with bilateral decompression through the same incision and unilateral approach)during operation.The perioperative conditions,anatomical image parameters,visual analogue scale(VAS)scores,Oswestry disability index(ODI),and complications were compared between the two groups.The rehabilitation progress and complications of patients with different Charlson comorbidity index(CCI)values were compared.Results The operation time of patients in the bilateral group was longer than that in the unilateral group(P<0.05).The dural sac area and lumbar spinal canal area of patients in the bilateral group were larger than those in the unilateral group immediately after operation and 3 months after operation(P<0.05).The VAS scores and ODI 7 days and 3 months after operation of patients in the bilateral group were lower than those in the unilateral group(P<0.05).There was no statistically significant difference in the total incidence of complications between the two groups of patients(P>0.05).The first time of getting out of bed after operation and hospital stay in patients with CCI value>2 scores were longer than those in patients with CCI value≤2 scores(P<0.05).Conclusion Compared with unilateral decompression,bilateral decompression for elderly patients with severe LSS takes a longer surgical time,but it can better restore lumbar shape,alleviate pain,improve lumbar function,and has higher safety,and the milder the patient's condition,the faster the postoperative recovery.

Aim To investigate the effect of KHSRP on the malignant biological behavior of gastric cardia ade-nocarcinoma by targeting JAK1/STAT3 signaling axis.Methods The expression levels of KHSRP in adeno-carcinoma tissues of gastric cardia adenocarcinoma and adjacent tissues were collected and compared.qRT-PCR experiment to detect transfection efficiency in gas-tric cardia adenocarcinoma cell lines(OE-19,TE-7,BIC-1,FLO-1,SK-GT-4,BE-3)and normal gastric mucosal epithelial cell line(GES-1).The knockdown and overexpression of KHSRP were treated by packa-ging lentiviral Vector,and the cells were divided into sh-NC group,sh-KHSRP group,vector group,and KH-SRP group.Cell counting kit-8(CCK-8)and Tran-swell assay were used to determine the effects of KH-SRP on the proliferation,migration and invasion of ade-nocarcinoma cells of gastric cardia adenocarcinoma.Xenograft tumor models were used to detect the effects of knockdown and overexpression of KHSRP in live an-imals.WB experiments confirmed that KHSRP targeted the JAK/STAT signaling pathway.Results KHSRP was overexpressed in GCA tissues and cell lines(P＜0.05).Cell function assay analysis showed that KH-SRP overexpression significantly promoted GCA cell proliferation,migration and invasion in vitro(P＜0.05).After KHSRP knockdown,the phosphorylation levels of JAK1 and STAT3 in JAK/STAT signaling pathway were significantly decreased,and the situation was opposite after KHSRP overexpression(P＜0.05).Conclusion KHSRP regulates the malignant progres-sion of metastasis of gastric cardia adenocarcinoma by activating JAK1/STAT3 signaling axis.

Objective To observe the application effect of surgical adhesive membrane combined with modified towel placement method in patients undergoing orthopedic unilateral biportal endoscopy(UBE)operation.Methods A total of 61 patients who underwent orthopedic UBE operation in our hospital from December 2022 to September 2023 were selected and divided into the control group(31 cases,conventional surgical adhesive membrane and towel placement)and the observation group(30 cases,surgical adhesive membrane combined with modified towel placement method)according to different placement methods of membrane and towel during operation.The degree of wetting in the surgical area,vital signs,intraoperative adverse events,postoperative incision infection rate and patients'satisfaction were compared between the two groups.Results The proportions of wet sterile sheets around the surgical area and moist skin of patients in the observation group were lower than those in the control group(P<0.05).The saturation of peripheral oxygen(SpO2),heart rate(HR),mean arterial pressure(MAP)at spinal canal decompression and the end of the operation of patients in the observation group were significantly better than those in the control group(P<0.05).No postoperative incision infection occurred in the two groups,and there was no statistically significant difference in the total incidence of adverse events between the two groups(P>0.05).The patients'satisfaction in the observation group was significantly higher than that in the control group(P<0.05).Conclusion Surgical adhesive membrane combined with modified towel placement method can reduce the degree of wetting in the surgical area during orthopedic UBE operation,stabilize the patients'vital signs,and improve patients'satisfaction.

Objective To observe the clinical efficacy of Qishao Huoxue Prescription in treating low back pain caused by lumbar disc herniation with qi stagnation and blood stasis syndrome.Methods Totally 80 patients of lumbar disc herniation with qi stagnation and blood stasis syndrome were divided into observation group and control group according to random number table method,with 40 cases in each group.The observation group received oral administration of Qishao Huoxue Prescription,while the control group received oral celecoxib capsules for 3 weeks.Follow-ups were conducted after 1 month and 3 month of treatment,and the clinical efficacy of two groups after 3 months of treatment was evaluated.The Visual Analog Scale(VAS)scores,Japanese Orthopaedic Association Assessment of Treatment Score(JOA),Oswestry Disability Index(ODI)and Quality of Life(SF-36)scores for pain before treatment,1 and 3 weeks after treatment,and 1 and 3 months after treatment in two groups were observed;the blood flow changes of two groups before and after 3 weeks of treatment were observed,including whole blood high shear,medium shear,and low shear viscosity,plasma viscosity,and fibrinogen(FIB);adverse reactions in both group were recorded.Results The total effective rate in the observation group was 97.5%(39/40),significantly higher than 87.5%(35/40)in the control group(P<0.05).At 1 and 3 weeks of treatment and 1 and 3 months after treatment,VAS scores and ODI scores significantly decreased compared to before treatment,while JOA scores and SF-36 scores significantly increased in both groups.The improvement in scores in the observation group was better than that in the control group(P<0.01).The observation group showed a significant decrease in blood high,medium,and low shear viscosity,PV and FIB levels after 3 weeks of treatment compared to before treatment(P<0.05),and all levels were lower than those in the control group(P<0.05).No significant adverse reactions were observed in both groups.Conclusion Qishao Huoxue Prescription can significantly improve the clinical symptoms,hemorheological indicators,and quality of life of low back pain caused by lumbar disc herniation with qi stagnation and blood stasis syndrome,with good safety.

Objective To construct an animal model of dilated cardiomyopathy(DCM)with heart failure toxin syndrome that conforms to the characteristics of traditional Chinese medicine(TCM)syndrome and identify potential biomarkers or intervention targets for DCM with heart failure toxin syndrome.Methods Fifteen male SD rats were divided into a blank control,doxorubicin,or DCM with heart failure toxin syndrome group using a random number table method,with five rats per group.The doxorubicin group received intraperitoneal injection of doxorubicin at a dose of 1.25 mg/kg,administered on the first and fourth days of each week,along with a standard diet.The DCM with heart failure toxin syndrome group,in addition to the doxorubicin treatment,was given 42％white liquor(10 mL/kg)via gavage every other day,along with a 45％high-fat feed and 10％fructose water.The blank control group received intraperitoneal injection of an equivalent volume of phosphate-buffered saline at the same time points as the doxorubicin group,along with a standard diet.The model was established for 10 weeks.At the fourth and tenth weeks of modeling,echocardiography was performed to measure left ventricular ejection fraction(LVEF),fractional shortening(FS),systolic left ventricular posterior wall thickness(LVPWs),diastolic left ventricular posterior wall thickness,systolic left ventricular internal diameter(LVIDs),and diastolic left ventricular internal diameter(LVIDd);macroscopic changes in fur color of the rats were assessed using the red-green-blue colorimetric method.After modeling,the open field test was conducted to evaluate the exercise tolerance of the rats,and the grip strength test was performed to assess changes in forelimb grip strength.Hematoxylin-eosin,Masson,and wheat germ agglutinin staining were used to evaluate pathological changes in cardiac tissue.Bulk RNA sequencing analysis was performed to identify differentially expressed genes(DEGs)in the hearts of rats between the blank control and the DCM with heart failure toxin syndrome groups.Using DCM,the Blue value of rat fur color,and forelimb grip strength as phenotypic traits,weighted gene co-expression network analysis(WGCNA)was performed to screen for characteristic module gene sets(MEs)associated with DCM with heart failure toxin syndrome.Overlapping analysis was performed on DEGs,immune-related gene sets,and MEs,and the intersecting genes were identified as potential biomarkers or intervention targets for DCM with heart failure toxin syndrome.The sensitivity and specificity of these targets were evaluated using receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve analysis.Results Compared with the blank control group,at the tenth week of modeling,the LVEF,FS,and LVPWs of rats in the doxorubicin group and the DCM with heart failure toxin syndrome group decreased,whereas LVIDs and LVIDd increased,and the movement distance of the open field test and forelimb grip strength were reduced(P＜0.05).At the 10th week of modeling,the Blue value of fur color in the DCM with heart failure toxin syndrome group was significantly lower than that of the blank control and doxorubicin groups(P＜0.05).Compared with the blank control group,rats in the doxorubicin and DCM with heart failure toxin syndrome groups exhibited significant cardiac dilation and increased immune cell infiltration in cardiac tissue,accompanied by collagen deposition and cardiomyocyte hypertrophy.Bulk RNA sequencing identified 2,003 DEGs,including 1,082 downregulated genes and 921 upregulated genes.WGCNA results revealed that the MEturquoise module had the strongest positive correlation with DCM and the strongest negative correlation with the Blue value and forelimb grip strength.The overlapping analysis identified four intersecting genes:bone morphogenetic protein 6(Bmp6),serine-threonine-protein kinase 1(Pak1),proto-oncogene JunD(JunD),and S100 calcium-binding protein A3(S100A3).ROC curve analysis demonstrated that these four genes exhibited high sensitivity and specificity for DCM with heart failure toxin syndrome.Conclusion The rat model constructed by intraperitoneal injection of doxorubicin combined with a high-fat feed,fructose water,and white liquor gavage closely aligns with the characteristics of the DCM with heart failure toxin syndrome.Bmp6,JunD,Pak1,and S100A3 are potential biomarkers or therapeutic targets for DCM heart failure toxin syndrome.

In order to investigate the teaching effectiveness of artificial intelligence(AI)in molecular bi-ology,this study selected students from the Animal Medicine major of the College of Animal Science and Technology at Hebei North University in 2022 and 2023 as research subjects.There was no significant difference in professional foundation,admission scores,and other aspects between the two grades,and they were taught by the same lecturer to ensure the reliability of research results.The 2022 students will adopt the traditional teaching mode,while the 2023 students will implement the AI-enabled teaching mode,which includes four stages:pre class exploration,in class assistance,post class learning support,and teaching reflection and improvement.Before class,the teaching team pushes teaching videos of vari-ous knowledge points in the course and relevant preview materials organized by the AI system to students to complete self-learning,and use AI systems to track students' learning difficulties.In class,the teacher uses various teaching methods such as case teaching,group discussions,AI animation demonstrations and virtual experiments,etc..Thus,they provide in-depth explanations of key contents based on the feed-back data from the intelligent learning companion AI system,promoting students' understanding of the knowledge.After class,the AI system generates personalized learning plans for students and provides dif-ferent levels of learning resources to broaden their horizons.At the same time,the AI system provides teachers with students'learning data analysis reports,and teachers can adjust and optimize their teaching plans accordingly.Research has found that students in the 2023 AI-empowered teaching class have signif-icantly higher satisfaction in multiple dimensions such as learning interest,understanding and mastery of knowledge points,and cultivation of scientific research thinking than those in the 2022 traditional teach-ing class.In terms of student participation in comprehensive activities,the proportion of 2023 students participating in subject competitions and innovation and entrepreneurship activities has significantly in-creased.In terms of academic performance,the mid-term,laboratory,and final grades of 2023 students are higher than those of 2022 students,with a significant increase in the excellence rate and a significant decrease in the failure rate.The results indicate that the application of AI technology in molecular biology teaching has stimulated students' interest in learning,helped them better understand and master knowl-edge,significantly improved their academic performance.In sum,it has a positive impact on improving teaching quality.

Objective To explore the validity and feasibility of the left transthoracic and esophageal hiatal approach for Siewert type Ⅱ adenocarcinoma of the esophagogastric junction under a single position.Methods The clinical data of 64 patients with Siewert type Ⅱ AEG(single position transthoracic approach group)treated with the left transthoracic and esophageal hiatal approach under a single position and 56 patients with the laparoscopic transesophageal slit approach(transabdominal approach group)in the Department of Thoracic Surgery,Huaihe Hospital of Henan University,from January 2017 to December 2018 were retrospectively analyzed.The clinical and pathological data,perioperative indicators(operation time,intraoperative blood loss,postoperative first ambulation time,postoperative first peristalsis time,postoperative drainage volume at 3 d,incidence of postoperative complications,postoperative hospital stay),postoperative complications(positive surgical margin,proximal esophageal resection margin,tumor diameter,total number of dissected lymph nodes,positive lymph node dissection rate,postoperative histopathology,and TNM staging of tumor pathology),and survival indicators(tumor recurrence and metastasis rate and survival at 1 month,3 months,6 months,1 year,3 years,5 years after surgery)were compared between the two groups.Kaplan-Meier method was used to analyze the postoperative survival rate of the two groups.Univariate analysis using χ2 test was employed to analyze factors influencing 5-year postoperative survival rate in Siewert type Ⅱ AEG patients.Results No significant difference was observed in clinical and pathological data,such as gender,age,American Society of Anesthesiologists(ASA)grade,tumor differentiation,pTNM stage,and tumor diameter between the two groups(P>0.05).No significant differences were noted in intraoperative blood loss,incidence of postoperative complications,and survival rates at 1 month,3 months,6 months,1 year,and 3 years after surgery between the two groups(P>0.05).The single position transthoracic approach group exhibited a higher postoperative drainage volume at 3 d compared to the transabdominal approach group(P<0.001),a shorter surgical time(P<0.001),a longer time to first mobilization,first intestinal peristalsis,and hospital stay after surgery(P<0.01),a longer proximal esophageal margin(P<0.001),a higher total number of lymph node dissections(P<0.001),and a higher positive lymph node dissection rate(P<0.05)than the transabdominal approach group.The 5-year recurrence-free survival rate of the single position transthoracic approach group was higher than that of the transabdominal approach group,with a statistically significant difference(P=0.013).The Kaplan-Meier survival curve showed no statistically significant difference in the 5-year overall survival rate between the two groups of patients after surgery(P=0.456).The results of univariate analysis indicated that there are significant relationships between tumor differentiation degree,pTNM stage,tumor diameter,and lymph node positivity rate with the 5-year postoperative survival rate in Siewert type Ⅱ AEG patients(P<0.05).Conclusion Siewert type Ⅱ AEG patients can be treated with the left transthoracic and esophageal hiatal approach under a single position,achieving the same effect as laparoscopic transesophageal slit approach,and it can be actively promoted as a complementary choice of operation in the clinic.

Objective To observe the difference of bone micro-structure in different regions of proximal femur,micro-CT scanning was performed on 30 proximal femur specimens to explain the mechanism of proximal femur fracture and to provide anatomical basis for prosthesis design.Methods Totally 30 intact proximal femur specimens were obtained from 60-80 year-old cadavers.Micro-CT scanning was used to measure the trabecular thickness(Tb.Th),trabecular number(Tb.N),trabecular space(Tb.Sp),connectivity(Conn)and bone mineral density(BMD)and other parameters in 7 regions of proximal femur,including proximal pressure trabecular(PPT),distal pressure trabecular(DPT),femoral head-neck junction(FHNJ),head and neck of femoral neck(HNFN),the base of femoral neck(BPFN),intertrochanteric line(IL)and greater trochanter(GT).Results The bone mineral density of IL and GT were higher than those of BPFN,FHNJ,DPT and PPT.The trabecular thickness of GT was the largest,followed by IL,BPFN and HNFN,and the smallest was FHNJ,DPT and PPT.The trabecular space of IL was larger than that of GT,and the data of both were larger than those of other parts,among which DPT and PPT were the smallest.The trabecular number of IL and GT were the smallest,BPFN,HNFN and FHNJ were larger,and DPT was the largest.The volume fraction of IL was the smallest,BPFN and HNFN were larger,DPT and PPT were the largest.Conclusion The bone density,trabecular thickness,bone volume,and total volume of GT and IL in the proximal femur of elderly patients are all relatively large,so the reason for the high incidence of fractures is not due to weak internal bone microstructure;The bone density,trabecular thickness,and trabecular gap at the proximal and distal ends of the vertical trabecular bone are relatively small.If it is necessary to perform core decompression for prosthesis filling at this location,the design should be conducive to the mechanical conduction of the prosthesis and the regeneration of surrounding bone tissue.
