Objective:Patients with metastatic urothelial carcinoma(mUC)usually receive platinum-based chemotherapy as the first-line treatment.Recently,antibody-drug conjugates(ADCs)combined with programmed death-1 antibody(PD-1 antibody)have shown promising efficacy and safety in the treatment of mUC.HER2 positivity is associated with poor prognosis,patients can benefit from anti-HER2 ADC therapy such as disitamab vedotin(RC48-ADC).This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of RC48-ADC combined with tislelizu-mab in treatment-na?ve patients with mUC.Methods:A retrospective analysis was performed on 70 mUC patients treated between July 2022 and December 2023,including 30 patients receiving RC48-ADC combined with tislelizumab(DT group)and 40 patients receiving gem-citabine plus cisplatin(GC group).Primary endpoints included objective response rate(ORR),disease control rate(DCR),progression-free survival(PFS),overall survival(OS),and treatment-related adverse events(TRAEs).Results:The ORR(73.3%vs.47.5%)and DCR(86.7%vs.62.5%)were significantly higher in the DT group compared to the GC group(P<0.05).The DT group also demonstrated longer PFS(10.98 months vs.7.67 months,P<0.005)and prolonged OS(median OS:not reached vs.11.34 months).The most common TRAEs included myel-osuppression,gastrointestinal and hepatobiliary toxicities,fatigue,alopecia,and rash.No grade≥3 TRAEs or treatment-related deaths were reported.Conclusions:RC48-ADC combined with tislelizumab demonstrated superior efficacy and favorable safety in treatment-na?ve pa-tients with mUC,supporting its potential as a first-line therapeutic option.

With the rapid development of competitive sports, the incidence of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury is on the rise. Such injuries may shorten athletes′ career and lead to other long-term adverse consequences. Although athletes generally recover well after ACL reconstruction, many still struggle to return to their pre-injury performance levels. Advances in the understanding of ACL anatomy and injury mechanisms, along with the evolution of surgical techniques and rehabilitation methods, have provided more individualized and tailored options for athletes following ACL injuries. However, there is currently no consensus in China regarding surgical and rehabilitation strategies for competitive athletes aiming to return to sports after ACL injuries. To this end, the Sports Medicine Committee of the Chinese Research Hospital Association and the Editorial Board of the Chinese Journal of Trauma jointly formulated the Expert consensus on surgical treatment and rehabilitation for competitive sports athletes returning to sports after anterior cruciate ligament injury ( version 2025), and presented 14 recommendations covering surgical indications, preoperative rehabilitation, surgical timing, surgical strategies and postoperative rehabilitation strategies, aiming to improve the surgical treatment and rehabilitation system for ACL injuries in competitive athletes and facilitate their return to high-level sports performance after injury.

Objective To explore the correlation between gallbladder stones and small intestinal bacterial overgrowth(SIBO).Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of 393 patients who attended the Department of Gastroenterology of the Sixth Medical Center of Chinese PLA General Hospital from January 2021 to September 2023.They were divided into gallbladder stones group(n=190)and control group(n=203)based on the presence of gallbladder stones.Their general clinical data,laboratory test results,and abdominal symptoms were compared.Multivariate logistic regression was used to analyze the risk factors for gallbladder stones.Additionally,the total population was divided into SIBO-positive group(n=239)and SIBO-negative group(n=154),and their clinical characteristics were analyzed by logistic regression to explore the risk factors for SIBO.Results Univariate analysis revealed that gallbladder stones group had a higher rate of age,body mass index(BMI),fasting plasma glucose(FPG),glutaminase levels,prevalence of hypertension,diabetes,coronary heart disease,non-alcoholic fatty liver disease,gallbladder polyps,and SIBO,as well as a higher prevalence of CH4-positive and H2-positive in SIBO group than control group(P＜0.05).In terms of abdominal symptoms,the incidence of bad breath(48.4%vs.35.5%),dyspepsia(38.4%vs.28.6%),abdominal pain(30.5%vs.14.8%),bloating(42.1%vs.28.6%),diarrhea(20.5%vs.7.4%),and more exhaustion(46.8%vs.34.5%)were significantly higher in gallbladder stones group than those in control group(P＜0.05).Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that independent positive determinants for incident gallbladder stones were age,BMI,FPG,total bilirubin(TBIL),coronary heart disease,gallbladder polyps,and SIBO.Univariate analysis revealed that age,prevalence of gallbladder stones,proportion of single stones,triglycerides(TG),total cholesterol(TC),and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol(LDL-C)were significantly higher in SIBO-positive group than those in SIBO-negative group(P＜0.05).Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the risk factors for SIBO were age,coronary heart disease,and gallbladder stones,while the protective factor for SIBO was high-density lipoprotein cholesterol(HDL-C).Conclusion There is a significant correlation between gallbladder stones and small SIBO;interventions on related factors of gallbladder stones and small SIBO may help reduce their incidence.

Objective To analyze the effect of Hsa-circ-0101216 on gemcitabine(GEM)chemotherapy resistance in pancreatic cancer and its mechanism.Methods Differentially expressed circRNAs between GEM-resistant pancreatic cancer cells and parent cells were screened using the GEO database.Pancreatic cancer GEM resistant cell lines(BxPC-3-GEM and Capan-1-GEM)were constructed by intermittent concentration gradient method.qRT-PCR was used to detect the expression of Hsa-circ-0101216 in cells.GEM resistant pancreatic cancer cell lines were taken and divided into sh-circ-0101216 group(knockdown of circ-0101216),sh-NC group(transfected with sh-NC),and blank control group(untreated).CCK-8 assay and EdU proliferation assay were used to detect the half inhibitory concentration(IC50)of GEM and proliferation ability of cells in each group.Western blotting was performed to detect the expression of multidrug resistance-related protein 1(MRP1),breast cancer resistance protein(BCRP),and human equilibrative nucleoside transporter-1(hENT-1).A subcutaneous xenograft tumor model of human pancreatic cancer in nude mice was constructed,and sh-NC+GEM group and sh-circ-0101216+GEM group(n=6)were set up.The volume and weight of xenograft tumor in nude mice were compared between the two groups.Western blotting and immunohistochemistry were used to detect the expression of MRP1,BCRP,and hENT-1 proteins in xenograft tumor tissues,and EDU proliferation assay was used to detect the proliferation ability of tumor cells.Results The GEO database screening showed that Hsa-circ-0101216 was up-regulated in GEM-resistant pancreatic cancer cell lines.Pancreatic cancer GEM-resistant cell lines were successfully constructed,and the expression levels of Hsa-circ-0101216 and the IC50 value in GEM-resistant pancreatic cancer cells BxPC-3-GEM and Capan-1-GEM were significantly higher than those in parental cells(P<0.05).In sh-circ-0101216 group,the IC50 values of GEM,cell viability,EdU positivity rate,and the expression levels of MRP1 and BCRP proteins in GEM-resistant pancreatic cancer cells BxPC-3-GEM and Capan-1-GEM were significantly lower than those in blank control group and sh-NC group,while the expression level of hENT-1 protein was significantly higher(P<0.05 or P<0.001).In sh-circ-0101216+GEM group,the weight and volume of subcutaneous xenograft tumors in nude mice,the expression levels and positive expression rates of MRP1 and BCRP proteins in tumor tissues,and the EdU positive rate were significantly lower than those in sh-NC+GEM group,while the expression level and positive expression rate of hENT-1 protein were significantly higher(P<0.05).Conclusions Hsa-circ-0101216 is highly expressed in GEM-resistant pancreatic cancer cell lines.Its knockdown can inhibit the proliferation of pancreatic cancer cells and enhance the chemosensitivity of pancreatic cancer cells to GEM.The mechanism may be related to the regulation of transmembrane transporter protein expression.

Objective To investigate the anatomical and microscopic structures of interstitial fluid flow channels in the skin tissue of hand dorsum in human cadavers.Methods Totally 7 fresh cadavers within 12 hours post-mortem were included.MRI was used to observe the distribution of interstitial fluid flow from the first phalanx of the fingers to the wrist,precisely locating the flow channels.Based on imaging results,histological analyses were conducted to determine the histological characteristics of the flow channels.Furthermore,multi-immunofluorescence and microcomputed tomography(Micro-CT)techniques were employed to analyze the channels,and image post-processing was used to elucidate their anatomical structures at the microscopic level.Results After injecting a contrast agent into the first phalanx of ten finger specimens and applying repeated pressure,MRI image revealed centripetal long-range interstitial fluid flow along channels distinct from blood vessels and lymphatic vessels.Histological analysis and Micro-CT further confirmed that the flow primarily occurred within the fibrous connective tissue and adventitia of the skin.Conclusion The orderly fibrous connective tissue and adventitia in the skin form the interstitial fluid flow channels in the human hand dorsum skin,named as"stromal membrane channels"in the skin.

Objective:To evaluate the effectiveness of a workshop-driven interactive teaching model in clinical alarm training for undergraduate nursing interns in the intensive care unit (ICU).Methods:A total of 120 undergraduate nursing students who interned in the ICU from November 2023 to April 2024 were enrolled and randomly assigned using a random number table into a control group ( n=60, traditional teaching) and an intervention group ( n=60, workshop-driven interactive teaching). Clinical alarm knowledge, attitudes, and practices (KAP); perception of patient safety culture; and training satisfaction were assessed before and after the training using validated questionnaires. Differences between groups were analyzed using independent sample t-test, paired sample t-test, chi-square test, and the Mann-Whitney U test with SPSS 22.0. Results:There were no significant differences between the two groups in clinical alarm KAP scores or patient safety culture perception scores before the training ( P>0.05). After the training, the intervention group showed significantly higher scores in clinical alarm KAP [(127.58±6.45) vs. (123.48±7.61), t=3.17, P=0.002] and patient safety culture perception [(99.44±9.17) vs. (95.45±12.03), t=-2.04, P=0.044] compared with the control group. Satisfaction with training content, teaching quality, and overall instructional design was significantly higher in the intervention group than in the control group ( P<0.05). Within-group comparisons showed that the intervention group had significant improvements in clinical alarm KAP [(127.58±6.45) vs. (120.10±10.25), t=-5.10, P<0.001] and patient safety culture perception [(99.44±9.17) vs. (94.46±12.12), t=-2.65, P=0.010] after training. No significant changes were observed in the control group after training ( P>0.05). Conclusions:The workshop-driven interactive teaching model can effectively enhance the clinical alarm KAP levels and patient safety culture perception among undergraduate nursing interns in the ICU. This teaching approach provides a scientific basis for optimizing clinical alarm education and cultivating high-quality nursing professionals.
