Objective: To investigate the clinical efficacy and safety of pudendal nerve modulation (PNM) in the treatment of female pudendal neuralgia (PN)，so as to promote the clinical application of this technique. Methods: A retrospective analysis was conducted on 20 female PN patients who failed conservative treatment at Gongli Hospital during Nov.2020 and Oct.2023.All patients underwent simultaneous PNM and sacral nerve modulation (SNM) with the assistance of 3D printing navigation.Dual-stage test electrodes for PNM and SNM were implanted，followed by alternate therapeutic trial for each modality.Secondary conversion rates and longitudinal outcomes，including visual analogue score (VAS)，patient health questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9)，and quality of life (QoL) scores were compared preoperatively，post-stage Ⅰ，and at 3，6，and 12 months post-stage Ⅱ. Results: All operations were successful.After the trial phase，the secondary conversion rate for PNM was significantly higher than that for SNM; 16 patients (16/20，80%) chose the second-phase PNM implantation surgery，3 (3/20，15%) chose second-phase SNM implantation，and 1 (1/20，5%) had electrodes removed due to ineffective results from both trials.Further assessment revealed that the improvements in VAS，PHQ-9，and QoL scores for PNM patients were significantly better than those for SNM patients after the first phase of surgery and at 3，6 and 12 months after the second-phase conversion (P<0.05).No complications such as electrode migration or infection were observed during the follow-up of 12-15 months. Conclusion: PNM provides more effective relief of pain symptoms and improvements in depressive states for female PN patients compared to SNM.With the assistance of 3D printing navigation，the operation is simple and safe，and offers stable therapeutic effects.It is worthy of clinical promotion and application.

Objective To explore the short-term efficacy of endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) in the treatment of early carcinoma in the remnant stomach. Methods A retrospective study was conducted on 45 patients with early residual gastric cancer underwent ESD at the Endoscopy Center of Zhongshan Hospital, Fudan University from December 2014 to April 2024, with a total of 45 lesions. The patients were divided into an anastomotic group (n=15) and a non-anastomotic group (n=30) based on the location of tumor occurrence, and their clinical data, endoscopic diagnosis and treatment, and histopathological conditions were compared between the two groups. Results All 45 patients had lesions with redness and erosion. There were 9 cases of poor lifting of submucosal injection in the anastomotic group and 2 cases in the non-anastomotic group, respectively, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). ESD surgery was performed on 13 lesions in the anastomotic group and 28 lesions in the non-anastomotic group, with surgery times of 80.00 (50.00, 100.00) min and 55.00 (43.75, 80.00) min, respectively. The difference in surgery time between the two groups was statistically significant (P=0.03). Among the 45 patients, ESD surgery achieved curative resection in 35 cases, including 11 cases in the anastomotic group and 24 cases in the non-anastomotic group, with no statistically significant difference. Conclusions Careful preoperative evaluation of early carcinoma in the remnant stomach is essential to prevent oversight. Lesions at anastomotic sites and suture lines present higher technical challenges for complete resection. ESD is safe and effective, with auxiliary traction technique available when necessary.

Inflammatory bowel disease(IBD)is a disease characterized by chronic,recurrent intestinal inflammation,includ-ing Crohn's disease(CD)and ulcerative colitis(UC).Etiology and pathogenesis of IBD are unknown,and the treatment is difficult.In recent years,immunocellular therapy represented by regulatory T(Treg)cell therapy and dendritic cell(DC)therapy has developed rapidly in the field of immune-related disease treatment,and some progress has also been made in the treatment of IBD.This review will introduce application and progression of Treg cell therapy and DC therapy in IBD treatment.

Objective:To understand the status and related factors of emotional inhibition among women re-ceiving in vitro fertilization-embryo transfer(IVF-ET).Methods:A total of 791 women receiving IVF-ET from a specialized hospital in Changsha were selected,and surveyed with the General Questionnaire,Emotional Inhibition Scale(EIS),Locke-Wollance Marital Adjustment Questionnaire,Self-Compassion Scale and Medical Coping Mode Questionnaire.Results:The average score of EIS in women receiving IVF-ET was(28.0±6.4).Multiple linear re-gression analysis showed that the EIS scores in women receiving IVF-ET were negatively associated with infertility factors(β=-9.23,-4.56,-2.86),personality type(β=-1.11),and marital adjustment,confrontation and self-compassion scores(β=-0.03,-0.13,-0.05),and positively associated with residence and surrender di-mension scores(β=0.82,0.20).Conclusion:It suggests that women receiving IVF-ET have a certain degree of e-motional inhibition,which is related to infertility factors,residence,personality type,self-compassion,marital adjust-ment,confrontation,and surrender.

To evaluate the effects of abdominal belts in colonoscopy for patients with low body mass index (BMI) (BMI<18.5 kg/m2) or a history of abdominal surgery, a prospective, randomized, single-blind study was conducted on colonoscopy outpatients. Patients with low BMI or a history of abdominal surgery who underwent colonoscopy at the Second Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University from January 2018 to January 2022 were enrolled. The patients were divided into the abdominal belts group and non-abdominal belts group according to whether they used abdominal belts. Differences between the two groups were compared in terms of cecal intubation time, length of colonoscope intubation into the cecum, patient repositioning, abdominal pressure, and degree of abdominal distension. A total of 296 patients (98 low BMI patients and 198 patients with a history of abdominal surgery) were enrolled, 148 in each group. The results showed that cecal intubation time (4.35±1.85 min VS 7.99±3.86 min, t=35.624, P<0.001) and length of colonoscope intubation into the cecum (72.03±10.35 cm VS 86.42±17.71 cm, t=38.442, P<0.001) were lower in the abdominal belts group, compared with those of the non-abdominal belts group. The percentage of patients requiring repositioning [18.9% (28/148) VS 71.6% (106/148), χ2=82.959, P<0.001] and abdominal pressure [6.1% (9/148) VS 52.7% (78/148), χ2=77.504, P<0.001] in the abdominal belts group were significantly lower than those in the non-abdominal belts group. There were significant differences in the degree of abdominal distension during and after colonoscopy ( P<0.001). In conclusion, the use of abdominal belts significantly improves the efficiency and effects of colonoscope intubation in difficult colonoscopy patients with low BMI and a history of abdominal surgery.

Objective:To analyze the clinical features of gastritis cystica profunda (GCP) and investigate the risk factors associated with its coexistence with gastric cancer.Methods:Data of 149 patients with pathologically confirmed GCP at Zhongshan Hospital of Fudan University between January 2015 and March 2022 were retrospectively analyzed for basic information, clinical data, lesion manifestations and pathological results, of which 106 were pathologically confirmed GCP after endoscopic resection and 43 others were pathologically confirmed GCP after surgical procedures. Among 149 patients, 56 were in the simple GCP group, and 93 in the GCP combined with gastric cancer group.Results:In the simple GCP group of 56 patients, 62.5% (35/56) were male and the mean age was 58.8 years. The predominant site of involvement was in the upper gastric segment (cardia and fundus) (51.8%,29/56), with manifestations primarily of the polypoid bulge type (41.1%,23/56) and submucosal bulge type (35.7%,20/56). Clinical symptoms were mostly atypical. In the group where GCP was combined with gastric cancer (93 cases), males accounted for 90.3% (84/93), the median age was 66.9 years, the upper gastric segment was predominantly affected (75.3%, 70/93), with differentiated cancer being the most common histological type (91.4%, 85/93). For 76 cases of early gastric cancer combined with GCP, mucosal lesions were the main presentation (73.7%, 56/76) with atypical clinical symptoms. Furthermore, in 17 cases of progressive gastric cancer combined with GCP, the manifestations were mainly bulging ulcers (88.2%, 15/17), and most of them were referred to the doctor because of abdominal pain and black stools (100.0%, 17/17). Binary logistic regression analysis showed that being male ( P=0.004, OR=4.411, 95% CI: 1.621-12.002), age ( P=0.001, OR=1.085, 95% CI: 1.036-1.136) and endoscopic manifestations of mucosal lesions ( P<0.001, OR=5.080, 95% CI: 2.162-11.939) were risk factors for GCP combined with gastric cancer, but involvement of the upper gastric segment was not related to combination with gastric cancer ( P=0.430, OR=0.707, 95% CI: 0.299-1.672). Among 106 patients with endoscopic resection, 57 cases of early gastric cancer combined with GCP had a median lesion length of 2.50 cm; 49 cases of GCP alone had a median lesion length of 1.20 cm, with significant difference ( Z=-5.503, P<0.001). All upper gastric GCP combined with early gastric cancer in endoscopically treated patients were cancers of the cardia, most of which were superficial elevation with the concave type (0-Ⅱa+Ⅱc) (44.7%, 21/47). 75.4% (43/57) patients with gastric cancer combined with GCP were graded as curative resection (eCuraA) after endoscopic surgery , and none of those who had additional surgery after endoscopic surgery had lymph node metastasis. There were 8 cases with history of gastric surgery, 7 of esophageal cancer, and 10 of multiple neoplastic gastric lesions in the 149 patients with GCP. Conclusion:GCP often occurs in the upper gastric region and is not inherently associated with the presence of gastric cancer. However, when coexisting with gastric cancer, it tends to affect elderly men, present with mucosal lesions of a differentiated histological type, and may be accompanied by esophageal or other gastric cancers. Notably, GCP is frequently identified as para-cancerous lesion, and endoscopic treatment emerges as a safe and effective approach, characterized by a high rate of curative endoscopic resections and a low incidence of lymphatic metastases.

Recently, malaria incidence has sharply resurgence in the border area of northern Myanmar, with the parasite incidence rate in 2023 being 21.47 times (95% CI: 18.84-24.48) that of 2019 in Kachin State's Razan and nearby areas. This resurgence caused the number of imported malaria cases to increase from 188 in 2019 to 398 in 2023 in Yunnan Province. In addition to the impact of military conflict, the border malaria joint prevention and control cooperation mechanism and malaria control measures established between China and Myanmar have failed to be implemented effectively due to the impact of the international COVID-19 epidemic. Hence, it is recommended that relevant departments evaluate the quality and effectiveness of the current cross-border transmission measures for malaria in the China-Myanmar border area from a technical perspective, and provide a large demand for primaquine, which can block the spread of malaria and cure vivax malaria, in response to the current prevalent characteristics of vivax malaria predominating in northern Myanmar. Moreover, to effectively reduce the mortality of imported malaria patients and prevent re-importation and transmission, it is necessary to enhance clinical physicians' knowledge, awareness, and vigilance regarding malaria diagnosis and treatment in the Yunnan border region, as well as China's ability and quality of appropriate response to imported malaria.

Objective:To explore the clinical outcomes of locking compression plating (LCP) in the treatment of periprosthetic fracture (PPF) of the distal femur in the aged patients.Methods:A retrospective study was performed to analyze the 31 aged patients who had been treated at Department of Orthopedic Surgery, The Affiliated Hospital to Nantong University for PPF of the distal femur with LCP between June 2012 and May 2023. There were 27 females and 4 males with an age of (80.2±6.1) years. According to the Unified Classification System (UCS), 18 PPFs were classified as type Ⅴ.3B1 and 6 PPFs as type Ⅴ.3B2 after total knee arthroplasty and 7 PPFs as type Ⅳ.3C after total hip arthroplasty. The patients were fixated with a lateral single plate in 25 cases, and with lateral and medial dual plates in 6 cases. The surgical time, intraoperative blood loss, hospitalization time, postoperative weight-bearing time, fracture healing time, and knee joint function and complications during follow-up were recorded.Results:For the 25 patients undergoing fixation with a lateral single plate, the surgical time was (58.7±7.9) minutes, the intraoperative blood loss (78.0±15.1) mL, the hospitalization time (6.9±1.6) days, the postoperative weight-bearing time (5.9±1.4) days, and the follow-up time 37 (15, 51) months. For the 6 patients undergoing fixation with lateral and medial dual plates, the surgical time was (186.6±9.8) minutes, the intraoperative blood loss (1,256.7±231.2) mL, the hospitalization time (17.8±3.3) days, the postoperative weight-bearing time (3.6±0.6) days, and the follow-up time 17 (16, 21) months. The fracture healing time was (14.9±2.0) and (18.7±2.6) weeks, respectively, for patients fixed with single and double steel plates. By the scoring criteria of the American Hospital for Special Surgery (HSS), the knee joint function was evaluated at the last follow-up as excellent in 10 cases and as good in 15 cases for the 25 patients undergoing fixation with a lateral single plate, and as good for all the 6 patients undergoing fixation with lateral and medial dual plates. No patient experienced such complications as incision infection, bone nonunion, or internal fixation failure during the follow-up period.Conclusions:LCP fixation can achieve satisfactory outcomes in the treatment of PPF of the distal femur in the aged patients. As fixation with a single lateral femoral plate is suitable for most of the aged patients with PPF of the distal femur, it can be used as the first choice. Fixation with dual plates can provide stronger stability, but its indications should be strictly controlled.

ObjectiveTo explore the effect of core muscles training based on spinal fine-tuning manipulation on lumbar facet joint disorders. MethodsFrom February, 2021 to February, 2022, 80 patients with lumbar facet joint disorders in Huadong Hospital Affiliated to Fudan University were randomly divided into control group (n = 40) and observation group (n = 40) randomly. Both groups received routine treatment and spinal fine-tuning manipulation, while the observation group received core muscles training in addition, for six weeks. They were assessed with Japanese Orthopaedic Association (JOA) scores, Short-Form of McGill Pain Questionnaire and World Health Organization Quality of Life-BREF before and after treatment. The recurrence rate was observed after three months follow-up. ResultsThe scores of all the scales improved after treatment (t > 5.751, P < 0.001), and improved more in the observation group than in the control group (t > 2.051, P < 0.05). After three months follow-up, the recurrence rate was 7.89% (3/38) in the observation group, less than 28.13% (9/32) in the control group (χ² = 5.005, P = 0.025). ConclusionCombination of core muscles training may improve lumbar function, reduce lumbar pain, reduce recurrence and improve quality of life for patients with lumbar facet joint disorders.
