Rosai-Dorfman disease（RDD），also known as sinus histiocytosis with massive lymphadenopathy，rarely involves the urinary system. This article reports a case of a 63-year-old male patient who initially presented with lesions in the nasopharynx that later involved the thoracic spinal canal and the foramen magnum region. He was admitted to the hospital due to a pelvic space-occupying lesion. The patient had symptoms of urinary system obstruction，and imaging examinations showed right hydronephrosis and other findings，without typical lymphadenopathy. The pelvic mass was resected surgically，and the postoperative pathology confirmed the diagnosis of Rosai-Dorfman disease. During the 6-month postoperative follow-up，no urinary symptoms were observed.

Objective:To investigate the relationship between nerve growth factor (NGF) concentration in follicular fluid and abnormal menstrual cycle in infertile patients with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS).Methods:A retrospective cohort study was conducted on 100 infertile patients with PCOS who underwent in vitro fertilization and embryo transfer (IVF-ET) at Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Peking University Third Hospital from March 2017 to June 2019. For comparison, the 100 patients with PCOS were divided into low NGF group ( n=50) and high NGF group ( n=50) based on the median NGF concentration (1 644.03 ng/L) in follicular fluid. Baseline characteristics, menstrual status and clinical outcomes of assisted reproductive technology were compared. We performed multiple linear regression analysis to examine the effect of NGF in follicular fluid on menstrual cycle length for multivariate analysis. Results:1) PCOS patients in the low NGF group had significantly higher body mass index [(27.24±5.17) kg/m 2] and white blood cell count [7.31(5.99, 8.43)×10 9/L ] than those in the high NGF group [(25.03±4.46) kg/m 2, P=0.024; 5.95(5.08,7.01)×10 9/L, P=0.001], while high-density lipoprotein cholesterol [1.15 (0.98, 1.36) mmol/L] and basic follicle-stimulating hormone level [6.51 (5.10,7.95) U/L] in the low NGF group were significantly lower than those in the high NGF group [1.36 (1.09,1.52) mmol/L, P=0.039;6.51 (5.10,7.95)U/L, P=0.040]. 2) PCOS patients in the low NGF group had significantly higher menstrual cycle length [60.00 (35.00, 180.00) d] than the high NGF group [32.50 (27.00,67.50) d, P=0.001]. 3) Multiple linear regression analysis revealed that after adjustment for body mass index, age, infertility duration, infertility type, and glucose and lipid metabolic parameters, the NGF concentration in the follicular fluid independently and negatively correlated with menstrual cycle length ( P<0.05). 4) The NGF concentration in follicular fluid was not correlated with assisted reproductive outcomes. Conclusion:NGF concentration in follicular fluid is closely related to the degree of menstrual cycle abnormalities in patients with PCOS.

Renal cell carcinoma in a transplanted kidney is rare, and partial nephrectomy in transplanted kidney is even more uncommon. A patient with papillary transplanted renal cell carcinoma who underwent partial nephrectomy was reported. The patient was admitted to the hospital due to the discovery of transplanted kidney mass, and the enhanced examination of CTU found a lesion in the upper pole of the transplanted kidney in the right iliac fossa, which may be renal cancer, with a diameter of about 2 cm. After open partial nephrectomy of the transplanted kidney, the postoperative pathology showed that the tumor was papillary renal cell carcinoma. The antirejection drugs were used after surgery. During the follow-up period of 16 months, there was no recurrence of transplanted kidney tumor.

Objective To investigate the clinical efficacy of transurethral plasma electrotomy with rod electrode and end-to-end urethral anastomosis in the treatment of short urethral stricture.Methods 125 male patients with short urethral stricture(＜2 cm)who were admitted to our hospital from January 2014 to December 2020 were retrospectively analyzed.According to different surgical methods,they were divided into transurethral plasma resection with rod electrode(minimally invasive group)and urethral end-to-end anastomosis(open group).According to the length of urethral stricture,the minimally invasive group was divided into minimally invasive group 1(stricture length≤1 cm),minimally invasive group 2(stricture length1-2 cm),open group 1(stricture length ≤1 cm)and open group 2(stricture length 1-2 cm).The four groups were compared with each other,and the surgical success rates were compared between the four groups.Results The success rate of the minimally invasive group 1 and the open group 1 was 88.57％and 93.10％,respectively.There was no significant difference between the two groups(P＞0.05).The surgical success rate of the minimally invasive group 2 and the open group 2 was 67.86％and 90.91％,respectively.The surgical success rate of the minimally invasive group 2 was significantly lower than that of the open group 2.The difference was statistically significant(P＜0.05).The surgical success rate of minimally invasive group 1 and minimally invasive group 2 was 88.57％and 67.86％,respectively,the difference was statistically significant(P＜0.05).The success rate of operation in the open group 1 and the open group 2 was 93.10％and 90.91％,respectively,and there was no significant difference between the two groups(P＞0.05).Conclusion Transurethral plasma resection with rod electrode is preferred for urethral stricture with length≤1 cm,because the success rate of this surgery is the same as that of open surgery,and the surgical trauma is small and the recovery is fast.For 1-2 cm urethral stricture,minimally invasive surgery has less trauma and faster recovery,but open surgery has a higher success rate.The choice of surgical method needs to weigh the advantages and disadvantages and take comprehensive consideration.

Objective:To investigate the tau deposition pattern in Alzheimer′s disease (AD) and its correlation with cognition by 18F-MK6240 PET imaging. Methods:From August 2021 to February 2022, 46 elderly people over 55 years old (16 males, 30 females; age (68.9±7.7) years) were included from outpatient and community in Shanghai. Structural brain MRI, β-amyloid (Aβ) PET imaging, tau-PET imaging and comprehensive neuropsychological tests batteries were conducted. The subjects were divided into AD group ( n=16) and normal cognition (NC) group ( n=30) according to the 2018 National Institute on aging and Alzheimer′s Association (NIA-AA) diagnostic criteria. Quantitative analysis was conducted to investigate the tau deposition pattern in AD after preprocessing 18F-MK6240 PET images with MRI images. SUV ratio (SUVR) of brain regions such as entorhinal cortex, hippocampus, parahippocampal gyrus, amygdala, insular lobe, frontal lobe, precuneus, occipital lobe, thalamus and putamen were analyzed, with cerebellum as reference region. The differences of tau deposition in brain regions between AD and NC groups were analyzed by independent-sample t test. The associations between SUVR and Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) score and Montreal Cognitive Assessment-Basic (MoCA-B) score were analyzed by Pearson correlation analysis. Results:AD displayed a significant tau deposition in frontal lobes, temporal lobes and parietal lobes compared with NC. SUVR of brain regions in AD group were higher than those in NC group ( t values: 3.37-9.61, all P<0.05). SUVR in brain regions were negatively correlated with MMSE score ( r values: from -0.735 to -0.350, all P<0.05) and MoCA-B score ( r values: from -0.723 to -0.367, all P<0.05). Conclusion:18F-MK6240 PET can demonstrate the tau deposition in the brain of AD patients, and the tau deposition is related to cognitive function.

ObjectiveTo investigate the efficacy and safety of CalliSpheres microsphere-transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (CSM-TACE) versus conventional transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (cTACE) in the treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) through a meta-analysis. MethodsPubMed, Web of Science, Cochrane Library, CNKI, Wanfang Data, and VIP were searched for all Chinese and English articles on the application of CSM-TACE and cTACE in HCC published up to the end of October, 2020. After quality assessment was performed for the articles included, RevMan 5.3 software provided by Cochrane Library was used for analysis. ResultsA total of 15 studies were included, with 1535 patients in total. This meta-analysis showed that compared with the patients receiving cTACE, the patients receiving CSM-TACE had significantly higher 1-year overall survival rate (odds ratio ［OR］=2.26, 95% confidence interval ［CI］: 1.63-3.13, P＜0.000 01), 2-year overall survival rate (OR=1.73, 95%CI: 1.20-2.50, P=0.003), and 2-year progression-free survival rate (OR=1.60, 95%CI: 1.05-2.43, P=0.03). In terms of safety, compared with the patients receiving cTACE, the patients receiving CSM-TACE had significantly lower incidence rates of postoperative vomiting (OR=0.65, 95%CI: 0.46-0.92, P=0.01), bone marrow suppression (OR=0.17, 95%CI: 0.05-0.54, P=0.003), and neutropenia (OR=0.18, 95%CI: 0.07-045, P=0.000 3), while there were no significant differences between the two groups of patients in postoperative pyrexia, abdominal pain, and ascites (all P＞0.05). ConclusionCSM-TACE has significant advantages in improving 1- and 2-year overall survival rates and 2-year progression-free survival rates and can significantly reduce the incidence rates of postoperative vomiting, bone marrow suppression, and neutropenia. Therefore, CSM-TACE is a safe and effective treatment method.

Objective:To explore the role of WeChat platform combined with flipped classroom in improving the working ability of resident doctors in the fever clinic.Methods:A total of 118 resident doctors who rotated in the fever clinic of department of emergency medicine were selected as the study subjects, and they were randomized into experimental group and control group, with 59 people in each group. The experimental group used WeChat platform and flipped classroom teaching, and the control group used traditional teaching. The results of theory assessment, operation performance and questionnaire survey were compared between the two groups. SPSS 26.0 statistical software was used for t test and chi-square test. Results:There was no significant difference in theoretical test scores between the experimental group and the control group ( P>0.05). The experimental group scored (91.61±3.01) points and the control group scored (84.52±4.02) points in operational assessment, with significant differences ( t=-10.85, P<0.05). The results of the satisfaction survey showed that there was no significant difference in teaching time distribution between the two groups, and the experimental group was better than the control group in any other aspects. Conclusion:The use of WeChat platform combined with flipped classroom during the COVID-19 epidemic can improve the level of operational skills of the resident doctors to wear or take off the protective clothing and collect nasopharyngeal swabs, help residents to avoid the infections, and improve the level of daily diagnosis and treatment of fever clinic.
