Objective:To explore the safety and effectiveness of ileal bypass with stent to prevent anastomotic leakage in Da Vinci robot anus-preserving surgery for low rectal cancer.Methods:From Dec 2021 to Sep 2024, the clinical data of 55 patients undergoing robot anus-preserving surgery and stent ileal bypass for low rectal cancer in the First Affiliated Hospital of Ningbo University was analyzed retrospectively.Results:All the 55 patients successfully completed the operation. Among them, 47 patients underwent low anterior resection and 8 patients did sphincter resection. The total operation time was (207±37)min, the operation time of ileal bypass was (24±3)min, and the intraoperative blood loss was (32±18)ml. After operation, the time of stent disintegration was (23.93± 2.87) days, and the time of catheter removal was (29.55 ± 3.21) days. By postoperative TNM staging, there were 12 cases in T1 stage, 26 cases in T2 and 17 cases in T3. The number of lymph node dissection was (16.84±4.50), 15 cases being positive for lymph node metastasis, 40 cases being negtive for lymph node metastasis, 36 cases were stage Ⅰ, 4 cases were stage Ⅱ and 15 cases were stage Ⅲ. The median follow-up time was 20 (2-35) months. Delayed anastomotic leakage occurred in 1 patient and anastomotic stenosis occurred in 2 patients.Conclusion:Stent ileal bypass is safe and effective to prevent anastomotic leakage in Da Vinci robot anus-preserving surgery for low rectal cancer.

[Objective]To evaluate the efficacy of ureteral dilation versus ureteral reimplantation in treating pediatric primary obstructive megaureter(POM).[Methods]A retrospective analysis was conducted on clinical data of 53 pediatric patients with POM treated in the Department of Urology,Anhui Provincial Children's Hospital from April 2019 to September 2023.The cohort included 37 boys and 16 girls with 5 bilateral and 48 unilateral cases.The age ranged from 1 to 157 months,with a median age of 17.00(5.50-48.00)months.Patients were assigned to 3 groups based on the management of the ureteral stricture segment:dilation group(18 cases,19 sides),Cohen group(20 cases,24 sides),and Lich-Gregoir group(15 cases,15 sides).The duration of the operations,postoperative hospital stays,postoperative indwelling catheters,postoperative D-J stents;changes in renal pelvis anteroposterior diameter and ureteral diameter;and postoperative complications were compared to evaluate the therapeutic effects.[Results]All 53 patients successfully underwent surgery.The dilation group showed significantly shorter operative time,postoperative hospital stay,and postoperative catheterization duration compared to the Cohen and Lich-Gregoir groups(P＜0.05).However,the postoperative D-J stent time was longer in the dilation group than in the other 2 groups(P＜0.05).Upon follow-ups for 6-12 months after stent removal,all groups demonstrated statistically significant reductions in renal pelvis anteroposterior diameter and ureteral diameter compared to preoperative values(P＜0.05).No significant differences were observed among the 3 groups in hydronephrosis resolution rates(P＞0.05).Additionally,the incidence of postoperative complications(urinary tract infection,vesicoureteral reflux,and reoperation for restenosis)did not differ significantly among the groups(P＞0.05).[Conclusions]Ureteral dilation demonstrated non-inferior short-term clinical efficacy compared to ureteral reimplantation in managing POM in pediatric patients.With reduced operative time,minimal invasiveness,and technical simplicity,ureteral dilation may be considered a preferential treatment option for children with POM.

ObjectiveTo investigate the expression of glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor （GDNF） and androgen receptor （AR） in testicular peritubular cells （TPCs） of cryptorchidism mouse models and explore the theoretical significance of cryptorchidism-induced spermatogenesis dysfunction. MethodsA total of 30 five-week-old male ICR rats were divided randomly by using random number table method into 6 groups. Cryptorchidism was surgically induced in 3 randomly selected groups and the other 3 groups underwent sham surgery as the control groups. On days 4， 7 and 14 after surgery， we harvested the mice testes of the 3 groups and their corresponding control groups， then measured the testicular volumes， analyzed the testicular histopathology and detected the mRNA and protein expression levels of AR and GDNF in TPCs by immunofluorescence， real-time PCR and Western blot. ResultsIn normal control groups， on days 4， 7 and 14 after surgery， the testicular volumes were （125.58±19.22） mm³，（123.45±20.12） mm³， （140.09±13.62） mm³ ， respectively. Clear layers of spermatogenic cells were well arranged and abundant sperm cells were found. Peritubular cells were morphologically homogeneous， with slim-spindle appearance and normal cell thickness. The mRNA expression levels of AR were 1.00±0.05， 1.06±0.07 and 1.19±0.13； GDNF mRNA 1.00±0.04， 1.09±0.05， and 1.10±0.07. The protein expression levels of AR were 1.01±0.01， 0.79±0.02 and 1.01±0.04； GDNF protein （18.68±0.43） pg/mL， （14.39±0.36） pg/mL and （16.88±0.37） pg/mL. In cryptorchidism groups， on days 4， 7 and 14 after surgery， the testicular volumes were （115.64±3.91） mm³， （69.51±14.97） mm³ and （44.86±5.56） mm³， respectively. Spermatogenic cells were disorganized， seminiferous tubules were disrupted， peritubular cells shrank， bent and fractured. The mRNA expression levels of AR were 0.76±0.06， 0.53±0.04， and 0.29±0.02； GDNF mRNA 0.72±0.05， 0.42±0.02 and 0.30±0.03. The protein expression levels of AR were 0.54±0.02， 0.98±0.04 and 0.31±0.01； GDNF protein （8.50±0.34） pg/mL， （17.44±0.32） pg/mL and （6.83±0.34） pg/mL. Statistically significant differences （P < 0.05） were found in 7-day and 14-day testicular volumes between control and cryptorchidism groups but not in the 4-day testicular volume （P > 0.05）. Testicular volumes， AR and GDNF mRNA and protein expression in control groups had no statistically significant difference （P > 0.05）， while those in cryptorchidism groups showed a trend of gradual decline in the amount and the differences between groups were statistically significant （P < 0.05）. ConclusionsIn surgery-induced cryptorchidism mice， after the induction， the expression of AR and GDNF in TPCs showed a gradual decrease over time. AR and GDNF play a major role in mediating the TPCs damage in cryptorchidism. This study provides a theoretical basis for mechanism researches of cryptorchidism-induced spermatogenesis dysfunction.

Objective To investigate the anatomical features of aortic arch lesions in the Chinese population in order to provide anatomical reference for the development of domestic arch en-dografts.Methods Clinical data of 83 patients with aortic arch lesions were collected from a first prospective multi-center study of WeFlow-Arch stent system,which was carried out between June 1,2021 and January 1,2024 in 17 centers across China.According to their pathologic types,they were divided into an aneurysm group(67 patients)and an ulcer group(16 patients).Preoperative computed tomography angiography images were analyzed using three-dimensional reconstruction techniques to quantify the anatomical characteristics of the aorta.The resulting data were subse-quently compared to assess the anatomical suitability of the Zenith and Relay stents for use in Chinese patients.Results The anatomical feasibility of Zenith stent and Relay stent was 39.8％and 63.9％,respectively in this investigation.No significant differences were observed between the two groups in terms of anatomical features,including arch type,aortic diameter and length,di-mensions,orientation,and angulation of arch branch vessels,as well as diameters of the left and right femoral arteries,and proximal and total aortic tortuosity indices(P＞0.05).The tortuosity index of the ascending aorta was lower in the aneurysm group than the ulcer group(1.17±0.06 vs 1.22±0.08,P=0.010),but the index within the coverage region of the stent was higher in the aneurysm group than the ulcer group(2.97±0.46 vs 2.66±0.36,P=0.020).Conclusion There are significant variations in the tortuosity indexes of the ascending aorta and the coverage region of the stent among the patients with different aortic arch lesions,and thus,attention should be paid to the variations due to their prognostic implications.The anatomical suitability of foreign de-vices is not good enough for Chinese patients,so it is of great significance for developing en-dografts specifically designed for the patients of our own country.

Circular RNA (circRNA) is widely expressed in eukaryotes. Abnormal expression of specific circRNA was found in both animal models with cognitive decline and patients with cognitive dysfunction.However, the role of circRNA in cognitive dysfunction related diseases is still unclear. By introducing the expression of circRNA in cognitive function related brain regions and its impact on brain structure and function, as well as the relevant research progress on the pathological mechanism of circRNA involvement in cognitive dysfunction related diseases, this review provides theoretical basis for revealing the pathological mechanism of circRNA in cognitive dysfunction related diseases and discovering specific circRNA targets for preventing and treating cognitive dysfunction.
