Lutetium-177 (¹⁷⁷Lu)-prostate specific membrane antigen (PSMA)-617 is a small-molecule radioligand therapy (RLT) drug targeting PSMA. By selectively delivering the β^－ radiation emitted by ¹⁷⁷Lu to PSMA-positive prostate cancer cells, it induces tumor cell death. The agent has been approved in multiple nations and regions for the treatment of PSMA-positive metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer, thereby expanding therapeutic options for this patient population. This review outlines the development, pharmacological properties, and current clinical applications of ¹⁷⁷Lu-PSMA-617, aiming to provide a theoretical basis for the clinical practice of RLT in prostate cancer treatment.

BACKGROUND:Osteoarthritis is pathologically characterized by progressive degeneration of the articular cartilage and abnormal deformation of the subchondral bone.In recent years,with the deepening of medical research,it has been found that the mitogen-activated protein kinases(MAPK)signaling pathway has a regulatory role in inflammatory cell infiltration,inflammatory factor release,and chondrocyte proliferation,which is particularly important for the treatment of osteoarthritis.OBJECTIVE:To briefly review the main research progress in the mechanism of MAPK signaling pathway regulating osteoarthritis in recent years,aiming to provide new ideas for the treatment of osteoarthritis.METHODS:CNKI,WanFang and PubMed databases were searched for relevant literature using the search terms of"mitogen-activated protein kinases,osteoarthritis,extracellular signal-regulated MAP kinases,p38 mitogen-activated protein kinases,JNK mitogen-activated protein kinase"in Chinese and English.Relevant literature published from January 2019 to November 2024 was searched,and 108 articles were finally included for summary analysis.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)Various stimuli inside and outside the cells activate the MAPK signaling pathway,regulate gene transcription and protein synthesis,and promote the release of inflammatory factors,such as tumor necrosis factor-α,interleukin-1β,and interleukin-6.The release of these inflammatory factors aggravates the progression of osteoarthritis.(2)The active ingredients of traditional Chinese medicine,mainly saponins and flavonoids,as well as Chinese herbal formulas and preparations with the main effects of activating blood circulation and removing blood stasis,tonifying the liver and kidney,can play a therapeutic role in osteoarthritis by inhibiting the MAPK signaling pathway,regulating the release of matrix metalloproteinases,balancing the homeostatic state of osteogenesis and osteoblastogenesis,attenuating the synovial inflammation,decreasing the release of inflammatory factors and inflammatory vesicles,decreasing cellular pyroptosis,promoting autophagy,and ameliorating oxidative stress.(3)Although traditional Chinese medicine has become popular in the treatment of osteoarthritis by virtue of its own advantages of multi-components,multi-targets,multi-pathways,and low side effects,the use of MAPK signaling pathway to guide the treatment of individual osteoarthritis is the difficulty of the technology,which needs to be continuously researched and explored.(4)Therefore,further development of relevant herbal inhibitors that can modulate the MAPK signaling pathway may be a potential drug strategy for the treatment of osteoarthritis in the future.

ObjectiveTo explore the epidemiological characteristics of poisoning cases in Qingpu District, Shanghai, and to provide a scientific basis for the prevention and control of poisoning within the district. MethodsA retrospective study was conducted to collect the information of 3 415 poisoning cases admitted to sentinel hospitals from 2018 to 2024. Descriptive statistical analyses were performed regarding the causes of poisoning, types of toxicants, gender and age distribution, and temporal distribution. Chi-square tests were used to analyze differences among groups. ResultsMales accounted for 64.30% of the poisoning cases, and the 20‒39 years old group (51.27%) constituted the largest proportion. The top three causes of poisoning were alcohol abuse (61.00%), suicide (15.20%), and accidental ingestion (9.93%). The distribution of poisoning causes varied significantly by gender and age groups (P<0.001). Among cases aged 10 years old and below, the main causes of poisoning were accidents/disasters and accidental ingestion; among cases aged 20 to 69 years old, alcohol abuse was the primary cause; among cases aged 11 to 19 years old and 70 years old and above, suicide was the primary cause of poisoning. The categories of toxic subtances included alcohol (61.41%), drugs (21.93%), pesticides or rodenticides (6.21%), toxic gases or liquids (5.68%), and venomous animals (3.95%). The composition of toxic subtance categories differed by gender (χ²=714.8, P<0.001): males were primarily poisoned by alcohol (78.32%), while females were primarily poisoned by drugs (45.53%). Poisoning occurred most frequently in January, July, and August. Alcohol poisoning peaked in January; pesticide or rodenticide poisoning peaked in June‒July; toxic gas or liquid poisoning (CO accounted for 69.59%) peaked in December and January; venomous animal poisoning (bee stings accounted for 97.78%) peaked from June to August. There were 8 deaths for the poisoning cases, with a case fatality rate of 0.23%. ConclusionThe situation of poisoning in this district was relatively severe. Prevention and control measures targeting the characteristics of poisoning in different populations and the distinct peak periods should be implemented to reduce the incidence of poisoning in the district.

BACKGROUND:At present,there are few reports on the postoperative efficacy of arthroscopic coracoid tunnel-free suspension fixation and coracoid single tunnel fixation in the treatment of acromioclavicular joint dislocation at home and abroad.The specific clinical efficacy of the two procedures and whether there are other risks need to be explored. OBJECTIVE:To compare the short-term postoperative clinical efficacy of arthroscopic TightRope band plate fixation with single tunnel fixation of the coracoid process and tunnel-free suspension fixation of the coracoid process in the treatment of acute type Ⅲ-Ⅴ acromioclavicular joint dislocation. METHODS:A retrospective analysis was performed in 45 patients with acromioclavicular joint dislocation who met the inclusion criteria admitted to the Sixth Affiliated Hospital of Xinjiang Medical University from June 2019 to September 2022,and were divided into coracoid single tunnel fixation group(20 cases)and coracoid tunnel-free suspension fixation group(25 cases)according to the surgical treatment plan.Operation time,incision length,blood loss,Constant-Murley score,visual analogue scale score,the American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons(ASES)score and intraoperative and postoperative complications of the shoulder joint before operation,3 months after surgery and the last follow-up were compared between the two groups. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:All patients successfully completed the operation,and there was no important nerve or blood vessel damage during the operation.The operation time of the coracoid tunnel-free suspension fixation group was significantly shorter than that of the coracoid tunnel-free suspension fixation group(P<0.05).There was no significant difference in intraoperative blood loss and incision length between the two groups(P>0.05).All patients were followed up for 12 to 24 months,with an average of(15.29±2.73)months.In the coracoid single tunnel fixation group,at 3 months after operation and the final follow-up,the visual analogue scale score was significantly lower than the preoperative score(P<0.05);Constant-Murley score and ASES score were significantly increased compared with the preoperative values(P<0.05).In the coracoid tunnel-free suspension fixation group,at 3 months after operation and the final follow-up,the visual analogue scale score was significantly lower than the preoperative score(P<0.05);the Constant-Murley score and the ASES score were both significantly higher than the preoperative scores(P<0.05).At 3 months after operation,the Constant-Murley score of the coracoid tunnel-free suspension fixation group was higher than that of the coracoid single tunnel fixation group(P<0.05),while there was no significant difference in visual analogue scale and ASES scores between the two groups(P>0.05).There was also no significant difference in the visual analogue scale,Constant-Murley,and ASES scores between the two groups at the corresponding time points before surgery and at the final follow-up(P>0.05).Intraoperative and postoperative complications:In the coracoid single tunnel fixation group,there was one case of coracoid cortical rupture and fracture during the tunnel drilling during the operation,and one case of a loss of reduction at 3 months after operation,which was repositioned and fixed with hook plate transposition of the coracoacromial ligament.All patients had good acromioclavicular joint function recovery and no re-dislocation at the final follow-up.All patients in the coracoid tunnel-free suspension fixation group did not suffer from coracoid fractures,loss of reduction and other complications during surgery,postoperatively and at the last follow-up.To conclude,these two arthroscopic treatments for acute type Ⅲ-Ⅴ acromioclavicular joint dislocation have the advantages of less trauma,reliable reduction and fixation,and good recovery of shoulder joint function after operation.However,compared with the coracoid single tunnel technique,the coracoid tunnel-free suspension fixation requires shorter time,faster recovery of shoulder joint function in the short term,and avoids the establishment of bone tunnels on the coracoid process,which reduces the probability of iatrogenic fracture of the coracoid process during operation and provides a higher degree of safety.

BACKGROUND:Steroid-induced femoral head necrosis is mostly caused by long-term and extensive use of hormones,but its specific pathogenesis is not yet clear and needs further study. OBJECTIVE:To screen out the differential miRNAs in osteoclast exosomes after the intervention of Panax notoginseng saponins,and on this basis,to further construct an osteogenic-related ferroptosis regulatory network to explore the potential mechanism and research direction of steroid-induced osteonecrosis of the femoral head. METHODS:MTT assay was used to detect the toxic effects of different concentrations of dexamethasone and different mass concentrations of Panax notoginseng saponins on Raw264.7 cell line.Tartrate resistant acid phosphatase staining and TUNEL assay were used to detect the effects of Panax notoginseng saponins on osteoclast inhibition and apoptosis.Exosomes were extracted from cultured osteoclasts with Panax notoginseng saponins intervention.Exosomes from different groups were sequenced to identify differentially expressed miRNAs.CytoScape 3.9.1 was used to construct and visualize the regulatory network between differentially expressed miRNAs and mRNAs.Candidate mRNAs were screened by GO analysis and KEGG analysis.Finally,the differential genes related to ferroptosis were screened out,and the regulatory network of ferroptosis-related genes was constructed. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)The concentration of dexamethasone(0.1 μmol/L)and Panax notoginseng saponins(1 736.85 μg/mL)suitable for intervention of Raw264.7 cells was determined by MTT assay.(2)Panax notoginseng saponins had an inhibitory effect on osteoclasts and could promote their apoptosis.(3)Totally 20 differentially expressed miRNAs were identified from osteoclast-derived exosome samples,and 11 differentially expressed miRNAs related to osteogenesis were predicted by target mRNAs.The regulatory networks of 4 up-regulated differentially expressed miRNAs corresponding to 155 down-regulated candidate mRNAs and 7 down-regulated differentially expressed miRNAs corresponding to 238 up-regulated candidate mRNAs were constructed.(4)Twenty-four genes related to ferroptosis were screened out from the differential genes.Finally,12 networks were constructed(miR-98-5p/PTGS2,miR-23b-3p/PTGS2,miR-425-5p/TFRC,miR-133a-3p/TFRC,miR-185-5p/TFRC,miR-23b-3p/NFE2L2,miR-23b-3p/LAMP2,miR-98-5p/LAMP2,miR-182-5p/LAMP2,miR-182-5p/TLR4,miR-23b-3p/ZFP36,and miR-182-5p/ZFP36).These results indicate that Panax notoginseng saponins may regulate osteoblast ferroptosis by regulating the expression of miRNAs derived from osteoclast exosomes,thus providing a new idea for the study of the mechanism of steroid-induced femoral head necrosis.

Objective:To establish ultra-performance liquid chromatography (UPLC) fingerprint chromatograms for Erigeron breviscapu from different origins and storage conditions; To identify the Erigeron breviscapus from different habitats by chemometric analysis.Methods:Acquity UPLC HSS T3 (2.1 mm×100 mm,1.8 μm) chromatography column was used; mobile phase was 0.1% formic acid aqueous solution-acetonitrile; detection wavelength was 268 nm; flow rate was 0.25 ml/min; column temperature was 35 ℃; injection volume was 2 μl gradient elution. The UPLC fingerprint of Erigeron breviscapu from different origins was established. Similarity evaluation combined with chemometric analysis methods such as clustering analysis (CA), principal component analysis (PCA), orthogonal partial least squares method - discriminant analysis (OPLS-DA) were used to identify the origin of Breviscapine from different places. Fingerprint technology was used to evaluate the similarity of storage conditions for Erigeron breviscapu.Results:The UPLC fingerprint method met the methodological requirements. 30 batches of Erigeron breviscapus had 24 common peaks, and the similarity between Xingyi in Guizhou and Huize in Qujing was 0.702-0.783, while the similarity between Honghe Luli, Kunming Fuming and Dali was 0.861-0.970. All samples were divided into two categories according to their origin by CA: category Ⅰ: Xingyi in Guizhou and Huize in Qujing, and category Ⅱ: Dali, Kunming Fuming and Honghe Luli. The results of PCA were consistent with CA. OPLS-DA screened out 10 differential markers of Erigeron breviscapus from different habitats. Moreover, a total of 40 common peaks were identified in six batches of Erigeron breviscapus samples stored under different conditions. Based on the similarity analysis, Erigeron breviscapus samples stored at 30% humidity and 70% humidity were classified into two separate categories.Conclusions:The fingerprint method constructed in this study is stable and reliable, and the predictive ability and reliability of the OPLS-DA model are excellent. By combining the two methods, a clear division can be made between Erigeron breviscapus from Yunnan and Guizhou. Humidity conditions are an important factor in storing Erigeron breviscapus.

Objective To Investigate the efficacy of modified electroconvulsive therapy(MECT)in patients with schizophrenia across different genders.Methods From May 2018 to August 2022,481 patients with schizophrenia were recruited from three psychiatric hospitals in Luzhou,Zigong,and Yibin.According to gender grouping,both groups received adjunctive MECT treatment for two consecutive weeks for a total of six treatments.The differences in positive and negative syndrome scale(PANSS)scores before and after treatment,UKU adverse reaction rating scale(UKU),and gastrointestinal symptom rating scale(GSRS)scores were compared between the two groups.Results After quality control,463 cases were followed up for analysis including 246 males and 217 females.Compared with pre-treatment,the total PANSS score and scores on each subscale were significantly reduced in both genders after treatment(P<0.001).When comparing the reduction rates between the groups,the male patients showed a higher reduction rate in negative symptoms than the female patients(31.24%±30.24%vs.25.80%±33.96%,P<0.05).However,there were no significant differences between the two groups in the reduction rates of the total score,positive symptoms,and general psychopathology(P>0.05).The comparison of adverse reactions showed that the frequency of other types of adverse reactions was higher in female patients than in male patients(47.47%vs.37.80%,P<0.05).However,no significant differences were observed in the adverse reactions related to the mental,neurological,autonomic nervous system,and gastrointestinal systems(P>0.05).Correlation analysis revealed that the reduction rate of the PANSS total score was positively correlated with smoking history(r=0.135,P=0.034)and alcohol history(r=0.160,P=0.012)in male patients,while the reduction rate of the PANSS total score was negatively correlated with the disease duration(r=-0.210,P=0.002)and positively correlated with the age of onset(r=0.145,P=0.032)in female patients.Conclusion MECT is significantly effective for both male and female patients with schizophrenia.Compared to female patients,MECT shows a more pronounced effect on negative symptoms in male patients.Additionally,the factors related to the efficacy of MECT differ between genders,indicating that it is necessary to consider the clinical characteristics of patients comprehensively when selecting an MECT treatment plan.

Objective:To investigate the safety and feasibility of the domestic single-port serpentine-arm robotic surgical system for pyeloplasty in children with congenital ureteropelvic junction obstruction(UPJO).Methods:Data of UPJO patients who underwent pyeloplasty using a domestic single-port ser-pentine-arm robotic surgical system(Beijing Surgerii Robotics Co.,Ltd.)in Beijing Children's Hospital from November 2023 to February 2024 were retrospectively collected.The patients who were not receiving surgical treatment for the first time,had hydronephrosis caused by other reasons(such as ureterovesical junction obstruction,posterior urethral valve,urinary tract stones,vesicoureteral reflux,ureterocele,etc.),had other urinary tract malformations(such as duplicated kidneys,congenital renal dysplasia,etc.),had severe atrophy of the affected kidney,severe urinary tract infection or severe renal insufficien-cy were excluded.All the surgeries were performed through the umbilicus and abdominal cavity,and the operation time,number of intraoperative incisions,incision size,intraoperative blood loss,and peri-operative complications were recorded.Statistical analysis was performed to compare changes in the an-teroposterior pelvic diameter(APD)and renal cortical thickness before surgery and 6 months postopera-tively.Results:A total of 10 patients were included(8 males and 2 females),with an average age of(10.20±3.12)years.Nine patients were on the left side and one patient was on the right side.The average height was(142.0±17.8)cm and the average weight was(37.6±17.9)kg.All the patients underwent surgery using the domestic single-port robotic surgery system,and no patient was converted to open pyeloplasty.The total operation time was(237±96)min,and the operation time on the operating table was(162.0±69.3)min.The intraoperative blood loss was 5.00(2.25,5.00)mL.No compli-cations,such as bleeding,urine extravasation,fever,and poor wound healing occurred during the perioperative period.Compared with the preoperative measurements,the APD was significantly shortened postoperatively(P=0.005),and the renal cortical thickness significantly increased(P=0.011).Con-clusion:The domestic single-port serpentine arm robotic surgical system is safe and feasible for UPJO pyeloplasty in children,with good surgical results,and can be promoted and applied in most domestic medical centers.
