By reviewing modern research and integrating clinical practice， this paper elucidates the correlation between the traditional Chinese medicine theory of pathological accumulation from collateral obstruction and gap junction intercellular communication （GJIC）， as well as its theoretical connotation and clinical application in tumor prevention and treatment. Physiologically， gap junction and collateral channels share similarities in structural distribution， substance exchange and information transmission. Pathologically， metabolic coupling mediated by dysfunctional gap junction resembles collaterals stagnation， forming the basis of tumor pathogenesis. The establishment of heterotypic gap junction parallels collateral hyperactivity， contributing to tumor metastasis. The post-translational modifications （PTMs） disorder of connexins is similar to the deficiency of collaterals， serving as a driver of tumor progression. Clinically， tumor treatment should follow the pathomechanism of collateral obstruction leading to pathological accumulation. In the early stage， detoxifying and unblocking collaterals can restore intercellular communication and inhibit tumorigenesis； in the progressive stage， calming hyperactivity and suppressing aberrant collateral pathways can prevent metastasis by interrupting heterotypic gap junction formation； and in the terminal stage， supporting vital qi and modulating PTMs of connexins can help delay tumor progression.

Objective:To summarize the surgical strategies and to evaluate the clinical outcomes of up-per urinary tract reconstruction in patients with stone-related ureteral strictures.Methods:This retro-spective study included 71 patients diagnosed with ureteral strictures secondary to urinary stones who un-derwent upper urinary tract reconstructive surgery at Peking University First Hospital between March 2014 and November 2023.Patient data were collected,including demographic characteristics,clinical presen-tation,laboratory results,imaging findings,surgical procedures,and follow-up outcomes.Ureteral stric-tures were classified according to anatomical location into upper,middle,lower,or multiple segments.Surgical procedures were carried out depending on the stricture characteristics.Surgical success was de-fined as resolution or improvement of clinical symptoms,radiographic improvement or stabilization of hy-dronephrosis,and maintenance of normal and stable renal function.Results:Among the 71 patients,36(50.7％)had strictures in the upper ureter,9(12.7％)in the middle ureter,15(21.1％)in the lower ureter,and 11(15.5％)had multifocal ureteral strictures.The median stricture length was 5.0 cm(interquartile range:3.0-15.0 cm).Surgical approach selection was individualized based on the location and extent of the stricture.For upper ureteral strictures,the most frequently employed techniques were oral mucosal graft ureteroplasty(13/36,36.1％)and appendiceal flap ureteroplasty(8/36,22.2％).Other options included ureteroureterostomy and ileal ureter replacement for longer or more complex strictures.In middle ureteral strictures,treatment was stratified by length:balloon dilation(1/9,11.1％)and ureteroureterostomy(1/9,11.1％)were applied in shorter strictures,while oral mucosal graft ureteroplasty(3/9,33.3％)and ileal ureter replacement(4/9,44.4％)were reserved for longer segments.For lower ureteral strictures,ureteral reimplantation into the bladder was the most common approach(10/15,66.7％),often combined with a psoas hitch or Boari flap when necessary.All the patients with multiple segmental strictures underwent ileal ureter replacement due to the extensive nature of the disease.The median follow-up period was 14.2 months(range:6.1-107.1 months).During follow-up,69 of 71 patients(97.2％)achieved surgical success.Conclusion:Stone-related ure-teral strictures present with considerable heterogeneity in terms of anatomical location,length,and com-plexity.Careful preoperative evaluation and individualized surgical planning are critical to successful re-construction.With appropriate selection of surgical methods,favorable long-term clinical outcomes can be achieved in the majority of patients.

Immunotherapy drugs are a class of medications that treat diseases by modulating the function of immune system.As frontline therapies in clinical practice,they play a particularly crucial role in alleviating disease symptoms and improving adverse prognoses caused by severe inflammation.In recent years,with the rapid development of internet technology and the continuous innova-tion in the technology industry,various national directives have been issued,urging schools to strengthen online teaching and promote the development of"Internet+education".Online teaching,unaffected by time or geographical constraints,has facilitated resource sharing and stimulated student interest.However,in practice,both singular online or offline teaching models have their drawbacks.This article takes the severe inflammation immunotherapy drugs as an example,integrating the concept of intersubjectivity in teaching to explore a"two-line"teaching mode in immunotherapy drugs.This study views students as the main body of learning,emphasizes the importance of individual learning,and solves the drawbacks of"one-line"teaching mode.Exploration and application of intersubjective"two-line"teaching mode has guiding significance for educational reform in the internet era.

Stapled peptides with significantly enhanced pharmacological profiles have emerged as promising therapeutic molecules due to their remarkable resistance to proteolysis and performance to penetrate cells. The all-hydrocarbon peptide stapling technique has already widely adopted with great success, yielding numerous potent peptide-based molecules. Based on our prior efforts, we conceived and prepared a double-stapled peptide in this study, termed FRNC-1, which effectively attenuated the bone resorption capacity of mature osteoclasts in vitro through specific inhibition of phosphorylated GSK-3β. The double-stapled peptide FRNC-1 displayed notably improved helical contents and resistance to proteolysis than its linear form. Additionally, FRNC-1 effectively prevented osteoclast activation and improved bone density for ovariectomized (OVX) mice after intravenous injection and importantly, after oral (intragastric) administration. The double-stapled peptide FRNC-1 is the first orally effective peptide that has been validated to date as a therapeutic candidate for postmenopausal osteoporosis (PMOP).

Objective:To investigate the feasibility and therapeutic effect of total knee arthroplasty (TKA) with cruciate-retaining (CR) prosthesis by using FEM-X1 femoral extramedullary positioning instrument based on the theory of restricted kinematic alignment (rKA).Methods:Thirty five cases who underwent total knee arthroplasty in Nanjing Drum Tower Hospital from November 2019 to December 2020 were retrospectively analyzed, including 7 males and 28 females with an average age of 71± 8 years (ranging from 55 to 85 years) Following the guidance of rKA alignment, the FEM-X1 femoral extramedullary positioning instrument was used for TKA with CR prosthesis. Before the operation, the full-length lower limb radiographs of both anteroposterior and lateral views were taken in a standing position for preoperative assessment of lateral distal femoral angle (LDFA), the medial proximal tibial angle (MPTA) and hip-knee-ankle angle (HKA). According to the principle of rKA alignment, the target LDFA, MPTA and HKA were calculated. The proximal end of tibia and distal end of femur were cut using extramedullary positioning instrument respectively. The posterior femoral condyle was cut according to the tibial plateau and mediolateral soft tissue tension. The prosthesis was installed after osteotomy. The release of collateral ligaments, PCL function, release of PCL, patellofemoral trajectory, release of patellofemoral support band, the amount of blood loss and time of operation were recorded. Postoperative LDFA, MPTA, HKA, and posterior slope angle of tibial prosthesis were measured on X-ray images. The Knee Society Score (KSS) was used for functional evaluation.Results:Thirty five cases of TKA with CR prosthesis following rKA alignment were successfully completed. The operation time was 100 (90, 110) min, and the blood loss was 100 (100, 200) ml. 30 of them were followed up for 12.5±0.7 months (ranging from 12 to 14 months). The pre-operative and post-operative LDFA were 1.0°(-2.0°, 4.0°), 0°(-2.0°, 2.0°), MPTA were -4.0°(-5.0°, -1.0°), -2.0°(-3.0°, -1.0°), HKA were -3.0°(-3.0°, -1.0°), -2.0°(-3.0°, -1.0°). There was no significant difference between the three angles before and after operation ( Z=-0.89, P=0.372; Z=1.87, P=0.061; Z=1.03, P=0.302). The average posterior tibial slope was 5°(3°, 7°). At the follow-up of one year, the KSS clinical score was 94(92, 97) and functional score was 80(70, 90) in 30 cases. During the operation, PCL was released in 1 case because of excessive tension; and lateral retinacular release was performed in 1 case because of poor patellofemoral track. Conclusion:ITKA with CR prosthesis by using the extramedullary positioning instrument on the theory of rKA alignment showed a good clinical outcome at a short follow up.

Objective:To confirm the reuse of mismatched regenerated motor axons of brachial plexus and explore the effect of target organs on their regeneration in a rat model.Methods:This study was carried out between January 2021 and December 2021 at the research laboratory of the Department of Microsurgery, Orthopaedic Trauma and Hand Surgery, the First Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University. Animals were randomly assigned into 2 groups, as a regeneration group (RGen) with 5 subgroups and a reuse group (RUs) with 3 subgroups. There were 6 rats per subgroup with 42 rats in total. It was observed that in the groups of RGen1-4, after the transection and suture of the musculocutaneous nerve, the motor axons of the proximal end could accurately grow into the distal corresponding endoneural tube. It was also observed that in the mismatched regenerated group, motor axons were the axons that grew into the endoneurial tube of the lateral forearm cutaneous nerve (LFCN), and other non-target organ contacts were made to the regenerated nerves after mismatch. It was specifically further divided into RGen1, the group without an organ for nerve to make contact with; RGen2, the group with skin as the target organ with nerves contact by neurorrhaphy; RGen3, the group with skin as the target organ with originally reserved natural nerve contact; RGen4, the group with muscle as the target organ with nerves contact by neurorrhaphy and RGen5, a control group. After 8 weeks, the positive area (PA), mean density (MD) and integral optical density (IOD) were measured, with AChE and ChAT fluorescence staining of the medial branch of LFCN, to evaluate the regenerated nerves after mismatch. Of the RUs group, firstly, the innervating branches of the flexor carpi radialis (FCR) were dissected and exposed, then further assigned according to initially innervated FCR (RUs1), contacted with regenerated nerves after mismatch (RUs2) and denervated (RUs3), respectively. After 8 weeks, compound muscle action potential (CMAP) and wet weight ratio of FCR were taken. Masson staining of FCR was also performed to evaluate muscle reinnervation by the regenerated nerves after mismatch. Data analysis with One-Way ANOVA and Bonferroni 0.05 indicated a statistically significant difference.Results:In the RGen groups, after AChE staining, the PA, MD and IOD of RGen3 and RGen4 were higher than that of RGen1 and RGen5, and PA of RGen4 were higher than that of RGen2, with a statistically significant difference ( P<0.05). After ChAT staining, the values of PA and IOD of RGen3 and RGen4 were higher than that of RGen1 and RGen5, and PA of RGen4 were higher than that of RGen2, with a statistically significant difference ( P<0.05). In the RUs, electrophysiological assessment showed that no CMAP was observed in RUs3, there was no significant difference in Latency of RUs1 and RUs2. The difference was statistically significant ( P<0.05). Wet weight rate of muscle of RUs1 (98.91%±3.86%) was higher than that of RUs3 (86.67%±4.68%) with a statistically significant difference ( P<0.01), but no significant difference when compared with RU2 (92.74%±3.88%). Masson staining showed that the CVF value of RUs2 (8.61%±1.16%) was significantly higher than that of RUs1 (3.17%±0.76%), and statistic significantly lower than that of RUs3 (16.44%±2.26%)( P<0.01). Conclusion:Target organ contact can promote the regenerated nerves after mismatched regeneration, and the muscle target organs exhibit greater facilitation than the cutaneous target organs. Besides, regenerated nerves after mismatch can establish effective innervation with muscle target organs, comfirming their effective reuse.

ObjectiveTo compare the regulatory effects of five plant polysaccharides on immune function of cyclophosphamide （CTX）-induced immunosuppressed mice by network Meta-analysis， to provide evidence for the clinical application of polysaccharides and the development of effective polysaccharides and oligosaccharides. MethodSeven databases including PubMed， Embase and Web of Science were searched， and studies that met the inclusion criteria were selected. The methodological quality of the included studies was evaluated using the risk of bias tool of Systematic Review Centre for Laboratory Animal Experimentation （SYRCLE）， and the data were analyzed using RStudio and StataSE 17. ResultA total of 62 randomized controlled trials （RCTs） were included， involving 1 512 mice and five plant polysaccharides： Astragalus polysaccharide （APS）， lentinan （LNT）， Ganoderma lucidum polysaccharide （GLP）， Poria cocos polysaccharide （PCC）， and Codonopsis pilosula polysaccharide （CPP）. The network Meta-analysis showed that APS ranked first in increasing spleen index （mean deviation （MD）=3.54， 95% confidence interval （CI） ［2.10， 5.96］）， thymus index （MD=1.98， 95%CI ［1.55， 2.54］） and T helper cells （CD4⁺）/T suppressor cells （CD8⁺） （MD=1.63， 95%CI ［1.13， 2.37］）， while CPP ranked first in up-regulating the number of peripheral blood leukocytes （MD=24.16， 95%CI ［8.21， 71.12］）， macrophage phagocytosis index （MD=2.52， 95%CI ［1.32， 4.82］） and immunoglobulin M （IgM） content （MD=1.79， 95%CI ［1.12， 2.85］）. ConclusionAll the five plant polysaccharides can regulate the immune function of immunosuppressed mice. Among them， APS has advantages in elevating spleen index， thymus index and CD4⁺/CD8⁺， while CPP focuses on increasing the number of peripheral blood leukocytes， macrophage phagocytosis index and IgM content. Due to limited number and quality of included studies， the conclusions needs to be further verified with large samples and high-quality studies.
