Endometriosis （EMT） is a common disease with frequent occurrence and difficult to be cured in modern clinical practice of obstetrics and gynaecology. It is characterized by progressively worsening dysmenorrhoea， pelvic mass， and infertility. The incidence of EMT is growing and increasingly younger patients are diagnosed with this disease， which poses a serious threat to the reproductive and psychological health of women of childbearing age and adolescent females. However， the pathogenesis of EMT is still not completely clear， and the disease has a long course. Therefore， developing new therapies is an urgent clinical problem to be solved. Great progress has been achieved in the treatment of EMT with traditional Chinese medicine （TCM）， while the underlying mechanism remains in exploration. Programmed cell death （PCD） is a cell death mode mediated by a variety of bio-molecules with specific signaling cascades. The known PCD processes include apoptosis， pyroptosis， autophagy， ferroptosis， and cuproptosis， which all play a pivotal role in the development of EMT. Researchers have made achievements in the treatment of EMT with TCM， which regulates PCD via multiple pathways， routes， targets， and mechanisms. However， the progress in the regulation of PCD in the treatment of EMT with TCM remains to be reviewed. This paper reviews the research progress in the treatment of EMT with TCM from five PCD processes （apoptosis， pyroptosis， autophagy， ferroptosis， and cuproptosis）， with the aim of providing a theoretical basis for the clinical prevention and treatment of EMT.

Elderly end-of-life patients often experience distress due to being caught in dilemmas of contemplation and decision-making. Narrative wills， grounded in life values and premised on respecting individual wishes and needs， present an individual’s unique life story through narrative forms， conveying their overall experience， interpretation of meaning， and understanding of life. They are preserved and passed on in a way that meets individual expectations， thereby promoting human exploration， reflection， and growth regarding the meaning of life through interpersonal interactions that transcend space and time. This paper explored the concept of narrative wills among elderly end-of-life patients， the ethical value and ethical principles of narrative wills， and the moral and ethical risks. It also provided specific ethical interpretations， assisting in the application and development of narrative wills in elderly end-of-life patients.

Cervical cancer is one of the most common gynecological malignant tumors,the five-year survival rate decreased significantly in the case of lymph node metastasis and distant metasta-sis,so the development of new anti-cervical cancer drugs is of great significance for the treatment of cervical cancer.Molecular docking technology is one of the most commonly used research methods in computer aided drug design,which is widely used in screening the effective components of drugs,finding the targets of drugs acting on tumors and exploring the mechanism of antineoplastic drugs.This paper reviews the molecular docking technology in the screening of anti-cervical cancer drugs,the determination of anti-tumor targets and the mechanism of anti-cervical cancer,in order to provide more sufficient theoretical basis for the screening of anti-cervical cancer drugs and new drug research and development.

In order to standardize the human caring services for outpatients in medical institutions, promote the comprehensive service level of outpatient services, and improve the patient′s medical experience, Chinese Association for Life Care issued the group standard of Management Norms for Human caring of Outpatients in April 2023. This standard clarified the relevant terms and definitions of human caring for outpatients, specified the basic requirements for human caring, the humanistic quality and care responsibilities of outpatient staff, the outpatient care environment and facilities, the outpatient care process and measures, and quality management. It designed standardized and personalized full process care service norms, providing references for medical institutions at all levels to promote the development of human caring for outpatients.

Objective To explore the diagnostic value of musculoskeletal ultrasound in patients with limb pain.Methods A total of 80 patients with limb pain admitted to the First Hospital of Nanchang from January 2021 to December 2022 were included in the study.All patients received magnetic resonance imaging(MRI)and musculoskeletal ultrasound on admission.The consistency and coincidence rate of musculoskeletal ultrasound and MRI in diagnosing the cause of limb pain were compared.Results In the 80 patients,MRI and musculoskeletal ultrasound detected positive results in 78 cases,accounting for 97.50%,and 2 cases had no clear disease type.According to the results of MRI,there were 75 cases in which musculoskeletal ultrasound diagnosis of the cause of limb pain was consistent with the MRI results,and total coincidence rate was 96.15%(75/78),with excellent consistency(Kappa=0.907).Conclusion Musculoskeletal ultrasound can clearly display the fine tissue structure,and the diagnosis accuracy of limb pain is high,and the diagnosis consistency with MRI is excellent.

Chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) with e6a2 transcript type is very rare in clinic,which is usually related to disease aggressiveness. Its clinical characteristics and relationship with tyrosine kinase inhibitor efficacy are still unclear. In this paper, the clinical characteristics and related laboratory tests of a patient with e6a2 fusion gene positive CML characterized by multiple osteolytic bone destruction throughout the body and eosinophil infiltration in gastrointestinal tract, lymph nodes and other organs were retrospectively analyzed, and the relevant literature was reviewed. The patient was Ph chromosome positive with chromosome +8, and the common BCR::ABL1 transcript of CML was negative, but e6a2 transcript was positive detected by RT-PCR. The patient was treated with dasatinib 100 mg/d. Three months later, the patients achieved CHR, CCyR and MR4.0. However, the e6a2 transcript is very rare in clinical practice, and more cases of e6a2 transcript need to be studied to clarify its clinical characteristics and improve the treatment effect of these rare cases.

Objective To explore the therapeutic effects of different doses of radioactive iodine-131 on patients with hyperthyroidism.Methods A total of 574 patients with hyperthyroidism treated in the First Affiliated Hospital of Xinxiang Medical University from April 2020 to April 2023 were sampled for this study and were divided evenly into the observation group and the control group by a random number table,with 287 patients in each group.The control group was treated with high-dose radioactive iodine-131(＞10-15 mCi),while the observation group was provided with low-dose radioactive iodine-131(5-10 mCi).The therapeutic effects were estimated six months after treatment.Data of the two groups of patients before treatment and 3 and 6 months after treatment were compared,including the levels of thyroid hormone(FT4),free triiodothyronine(FT3),and thyroid-stimulating hormone(TSH),which were measured through the fluorescence immunochromatography of serum(obtained by centrifugation of 3 mL fasting venous blood),and the tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α),transforming growth factor-β1(TGF-β1),interleukin-6(IL-6),and IL-1,which were measured through the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay of serum.The salivary gland uptake index and salivary gland secretion index of the patients before treatment and 3 and 6 months after treatment were measured through radionuclide imaging.The incidence of adverse reactions during treatment was documen-ted.The incidence of hypothyroidism in both groups was evaluated 6 months after treatment.Results The total effective rate of the observation group and the control group was 83.27％(234/281)and 92.88％(261/281),respectively,and that of the observation group was significantly higher(x2=12.353,P＜0.05).The FT4,FT3,and TSH levels of the two groups before treatment showed no statistical discrepancy(P＞0.05).According to data collected 3 and 6 months after treatment,FT4 and FT3 levels of both groups significantly decreased,while TSH increased(P＜0.05)compared to corresponding pre-treatment levels;FT4 and FT3 levels of both groups observed 6 months after treatment were significantly lower than those observed 3 months before,in contrast to the growing TSH trend(P＜0.05).At 3 and 6 months after treatment,FT4 and FT3 levels of the observation group were significantly lower than those of the control group,while TSH levels were significantly higher(P＜0.05).The salivary gland uptake index and salivary gland secretion index between the two groups before treatment showed no statistical discrepancy(P＞0.05).At 3 and 6 months after treatment,such indexes of both groups obviously decreased(P＜0.05).However,those observed 6 months after treatment were higher than three months before(P＜0.05).At 3 months after treatment,the salivary gland uptake index and salivary gland secretion index of the observation group were notably higher than the control group(P＜0.05);at 6 months after treatment,no statistical discrepancy was observed between the two groups in terms of the two indexes(P＞0.05).Before treatment,there was no statistical difference in TNF-α,TGF-β1,IL-6,and IL-1 levels between the two groups(P＞0.05).At 3 and 6 months after treatment,the TNF-α,TGF-β1,IL-6,and IL-1 levels of both groups decreased significantly from pre-treatment levels(P＜0.05),and the data observed 6 months after treatment were still lower than those observed 3 months after treatment(P＜0.05).At 3 months after treatment,the TNF-α,TGF-β1,IL-6,and IL-1 levels of the observation group were significantly lower than those of the control group(P＜0.05);at 6 months after treatment,no statistical difference was observed between the two groups(P＞0.05).The incidence of adverse reactions during treatment in the control group and the observation group was 16.38％(47/287)and 8.01％(23/287),respectively,and that of the observation group was significantly lower than the other group(x2=8.457,P＜0.05).At 6 months after treatment,the incidence of hypothyroidism in the control group and the observation group was 12.46％(35/281)and 3.56％(10/281),respectively,and that of the observation group was significantly lower than that in the control group(x2=15.098,P＜0.05).Conclusion Low doses of radioactive iodine-131 work better in the treatment of hyperthyroidism and can effectively alleviate inflammation and salivary gland dysfunction,with less risk of inducing hypothyroidism and adverse reactions.

Objective To observe the relationship between functional connectivity(FC)of frontoparietal network(FPN)and cognitive function in patients with cerebral small vessel disease(CSVD)using resting-state functional MRI(rs-fMRI).Methods rs-fMRI of 50 CSVD patients with cognitive impairment(CI group),65 CSVD patients with normal cognition(NC group)and 60 healthy controls(HC group),as well as outcomes of neuropsychological tests were retrospectively analyzed.Brain regions with different FC of FPN were compared among 3 groups and between each 2 groups.Partial correlation analysis was used to evaluate the correlations of FC of brain regions value being statistically different between CI and NC groups and cognitive scores.Results Significant differences of FC in bilateral cingulate gyrus,left middle frontal gyrus,right supramarginal gyrus,right inferior parietal lobule and right medial superior frontal gyrus were found among groups(FWE correction,all P＜0.05).Compared with NC group,FC of left cingulate gyrus decreased,of right inferior frontal gyrus and right medial superior frontal gyrus increased in CI group(FWE correction,all P＜0.05).The decreased FC value of left cingulate gyrus was negatively correlated with clock drawing test score in CSVD patients(r=-0.159,P=0.049).Conclusion CSVD patients with or without CI had extensive abnormal FC of FPN,and the left cingulate gyrus was associated with patient's cognitive function.
