AIM: To investigate the diagnostic and prognostic value of differential expression of Cyclin D1 and p53 in eyelid tumors.METHODS: This retrospective study enrolled patients who underwent surgical resection for eyelid tumors at our hospital between March 2018 and March 2023. Participants were categorized into benign and malignant groups based on tumor characteristics. Clinical data were collected. Genetic data for eyelid tumors were obtained from the GEO database, and differential gene analysis, including volcano plot visualization and KEGG pathway enrichment analysis, was performed using the Sangerbox 3.0 platform. Immunohistochemistry was used to detect the expression levels of Cyclin D1, p53, and BAX in tissue samples. Correlations with clinical features were analyzed using Spearman analysis, and prognostic factors were identified via Logistic regression analysis.RESULTS: This study included 69 patients with eyelid tumors(78 eyes), categorized into a benign group(37 patients, 41 eyes)and a malignant group(32 patients, 37 eyes)based on tumor characteristics. There were significant differences between the two groups in histological subtype, TNM staging, vascular invasion, differentiation status, and local infiltration(all P<0.05). Among benign tumors: pigmented nevi in 11 eyes(27%), hemangiomas in 9 eyes(22%), squamous cell papillomas in 5 eyes(12%), epidermoid cysts in 5 eyes(12%), seborrheic keratoses in 4 eyes(10%), neurofibromas in 3 eyes(7%), and both calcifying epithelioma and xanthelasma in 2 eyes each(5%); among malignant tumors: basal cell carcinoma in 18 eyes(49%), meibomian gland carcinoma in 8 eyes(22%), squamous cell carcinoma in 5 eyes(14%), sebaceous gland carcinoma in 4 eyes(11%), lymphoma and malignant melanoma each in 1 eye(3%). At the follow-up cutoff date of March 2025, the 2-year survival rate in the benign group(95%)was significantly higher than that in the malignant group(78%; P<0.05). Bioinformatics analysis identified 4 103 differentially expressed genes, including Cyclin D1, p53, and BAX, which were predominantly involved in pathways such as the p53 signaling pathway and calcium-related signaling. Spearman analysis revealed that local invasion(rs=0.71, P<0.05)and TNM stage(rs=0.73, P<0.05)correlated with Cyclin D1 expression; local invasion(rs=0.76, P<0.05)and histological subtype(rs=0.65, P<0.05)correlated with p53 expression. Logistic regression results indicated that Cyclin D1, p53, TNM staging, and local invasion were prognostic risk factors. ROC curve analysis demonstrated that the combined detection of these four indicators had the highest predictive value for prognosis(AUC=0.83).CONCLUSION: High expression of cyclin D1 and p53 serves as molecular markers for distinguishing benign from malignant eyelid tumors and assessing prognosis. Combined detection of these markers with TNM staging and local invasion demonstrates high predictive value for prognosis.

ObjectiveTo analyze the etiological characteristics and risk factors of autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) complicated with urinary tract infection (UTI). MethodsA retrospective analysis was performed on 244 patients with ADPKD admitted to the Department of Nephrology. The patients were stratified into a study group (n=138) and a control group (n=106) according to the presence or absence of concurrent UTI. All patients in the study group underwent etiological testing and drug susceptibility testing. Clinical data of both groups were collected to identify the risk factors for ADPKD complicated with UTI. ResultsA total of 105 pathogens were detected in 138 cases in the study group, including 79 Gram-negative bacteria, 20 Gram-positive bacteria and 6 fungi. Escherichia coli showed a relatively high resistance rate to ampicillin, piperacillin and ciprofloxacin. Enterococcus faecalis had a relatively high resistance rate to tetracycline. There were statistically significant differences between the study group and the control group in terms of gender, history of urinary tract infection, C-reactive protein (CRP), increased urine red blood cells, increased urine white blood cells, increased percentage of neutrophils, blood sodium, blood calcium, total cholesterol, serum iron and transferrin saturation (P<0.05). Multivariate binary Logistic regression analysis revealed that female gender (OR=2.236, P=0.004), history of urinary tract infection (OR=2.383, P=0.002), increased urine white blood cells (OR=2.726, P=0.001), increased percentage of neutrophils (OR=1.040, P=0.010), elevated C-reactive protein (OR=1.011, P=0.007) and elevated blood calcium (OR=4.389, P=0.024) were risk factors of urinary tract infection in ADPKD patients (P<0.05). ConclusionThe main pathogens of UTI in patients with ADPKD are Gram-negative bacteria. Female, previous history of urinary tract infection, urinary leukocytosis, increased percentage of neutrophils, increased CRP and increased serum calcium are risk factors of UTI.

OBJECTIVE To establish an integrated central pharmacy management model combining the inpatient pharmacy and the pharmacy intravenous admixture service (PIVAS), and to evaluate its effectiveness and economic value in terms of operational cost composition, dispensing output, and dispensing efficiency.METHODS Through spatial integration, flexible staff scheduling, the application of intelligent equipment, and a dual prescription review system, the inpatient pharmacy and PIVAS were integrated, and an integrated management model was implemented. Operational data from the Fourth Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University (hereinafter referred to as “our hospital”) in 2023 were selected for analysis, with national median data and data from another hospital in the same region that still implemented a separate management model for the inpatient pharmacy and PIVAS serving as controls. The activity-based costing method was used to calculate operating costs. Dispensing output, dispensing efficiency, and unit activity cost were compared among the three. Cost-benefit analysis was further conducted by calculating the net benefit (NB) and the incremental cost-effectiveness ratio (ICER) for economic evaluation.RESULTS Under the integrated central management model, the total operational cost of our hospital’s central pharmacy was 3.968 3 million yuan, representing an 11.80% reduction compared with the external hospital’s pharmacy (4.499 0 million yuan), with consumable costs and labor costs decreasing by 38.73% and 10.99%, respectively. The total prescription dispensing volume (3.613 4 million orders) was 43.58% higher than that of the external hospital’s pharmacy (2.516 7 million orders). The daily dispensing volume per capita reached 471.41 medication orders, 3.5 times that of the external hospital’s pharmacy (135.20 medication orders). The unit activity cost was 1.10 yuan, showing a 38.55% decrease relative to the external hospital’s pharmacy (1.79 yuan). The NB was 755 200 yuan, and the ICER was -2.36. In terms of PIVAS operations, the daily dispensing volume per capita for general infusions (including antibacterial drugs) in our hospital was 50.83 sets, higher than the national PIVAS median (49.11 sets) and the external hospital pharmacy (36.14 sets); the daily dispensing volume per capita for hazardous drugs was 0.86 sets, higher than the national median (0.70 sets) and the external hospital pharmacy (0.16 sets).CONCLUSIONS The integrated central pharmacy management model established by our hospital achieved reduced operational costs and enhanced staff efficiency despite growing service volumes. Integrating the functions of both the inpatient pharmacy and the PIVAS, this model outperformed national medians and peer hospitals in dispensing output, dispensing efficiency, unit activity cost control, and economic evaluation, and surpassed the national median specifically in PIVAS dispensing efficiency.

ObjectiveTo observe the clinical efficacy and safety of Tianmeng Lingjiao Formula(天礞羚角方, TLF) as an adjunctive therapy for paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (PAF) with phlegm-heat harassing the interior syndrome. MethodsNinety patients with PAF and phlegm-heat harassing the interior syndrome were enrolled and randomly assigned in a 2∶1 ratio to test group (60 cases) and control group (30 cases). The control group received conventional western medicine, while the test group received TLF in addition to the conventional treatment, with one dose administered daily. The treatment course for both groups was 4 weeks. The efficacy of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) syndrome and the rate of atrial fibrillation (AF) conversion were compared between groups. Assessments included AF burden, frequency and duration of AF episodes, TCM syndrome scores, and European Heart Rhythm Association (EHRA) AF symptom classification before and after treatment. Safety indicators such as blood routine, urine routine, stool routine, liver function, kidney function, and electrolytes were also monitored. Adverse events were recorded. ResultsA total of 82 patients completed the study (54 in the test group and 28 in the control group). After treatment, AF burden, the frequency and duration of AF episodes, and TCM syndrome scores were significantly reduced in both groups, and the test group showed lower indicators than the control group (P<0.01 or P<0.05). The AF conversion rate was 25.93% (14/54) in the test group, significantly higher than 3.57% (1/28) in the control group (P<0.05). The total effective rate for TCM syndrome efficacy was 83.33% (45/54) in the test group, which was significantly higher than 67.86% (19/28) in the control group (P<0.05). After treatment, the EHRA atrial fibrillation symptom severity in the test group showed significant improvement, and the improvement in atrial fibrillation symptoms was superior to that in the control group (P<0.01or P<0.05). No significant abnormalities were observed in safety indicators, and no adverse events occurred during the trial. ConclusionTLF as an adjunctive therapy can reduce AF burden, enhance the conversion rate of AF, decrease the frequency and duration of episodes, and improve clinical symptoms in patients with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation presenting with phlegm-heat harassing the interior syndrome, with a favorable safety profile.

Objective:To explore the effects of ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme E2L3 (UBE2L3) on the proliferation and apoptosis of head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) cell line UMSCC-1 in vitro and its potential mechanisms, and to investigate the relationship between UBE2L3 and immune cell infiltration in the HNSCC tumor microenvironment.Methods:The plasmid carrying UBE2L3 gene sequence was transfected into UMSCC-1 cells by using liposome transfection technology (UBE2L3 overexpression group), and UMSCC-1 cells transfected with the empty plasmid was treated as the control group. The quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) was used to detect the expression level of UBE2L3 mRNA after transfection, and the transfection efficiency was evaluated. The proliferation levels of the 2 groups of cells were detected by using CCK-8 assay and the cell proliferation rate was calculated. The apoptosis rates of the 2 groups of cells after etoposide induced apoptosis for 24 h were detected by using flow cytometry. The expression levels of Cyclin D1, apoptosis-related proteins bcl-2, and Bax in the 2 groups of cells were detected by using Western blotting. The samples of 504 HNSCC tissues in the Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) were analyzed by using the single-sample gene set enrichment analysis (ssGSEA) database. The median expression level of UBE2L3 was used to distinguish between high and low expression of UBE2L3 transcriptional level. The differences in immune cell enrichment score between high and low expression samples were compared, and the relationship between UBE2L3 expression level and immune cell number was analyzed.Results:qPCR results showed that the relative expression level of UBE2L3 mRNA in UMSCC-1 cells carrying UBE2L3 gene sequence plasmid was higher than that in UMSCC-1 cells transfected with the empty plasmid (9.32±1.15 vs. 1.00±0.02), and the difference was statistically significant ( t = 7.23, P < 0.001), indicating successful transfection. The CCK-8 assay showed that the cell proliferation rate of UMSCC-1 cells in the UBE2L3 overexpression group for 24 h and 48 h of culture was higher than that in the control group [24 h: (184.0±7.9)% vs. (100.0±5.6)%; 48 h: (165.5±5.3)% vs. (100.0±5.3)%], and the differences were statistically significant (both P < 0.001). Flow cytometry showed that the apoptosis rate of UMSCC-1 cells in the UBE2L3 overexpression group was lower than that in the control group [(9.9±1.3)% vs. (15.6±1.3)%], and the difference was statistically significant ( t = 2.78, P = 0.005). Western blotting showed that the relative expression levels of Cyclin D1 and bcl-2 proteins in UMSCC-1 cells of the UBE2L3 overexpression group were higher than those in the control group, while the relative expression level of Bax protein was lower than that in the control group, and the differences were statistically significant (all P < 0.05). The ssGSEA analysis showed that the enrichment scores of B cells, CD8 + T cells, neutrophils, T cells, T helper 17 (Th17) cells, and regulatory T cells (Treg) in 252 HNSCC tissues samples with low UBE2L3 transcriptional expression level were higher than in 252 samples with high UBE2L3 transcriptional expression level in the TCGA database, while the enrichment scores of natural killer (NK) cells and T helper 2 (Th2) cells in patients with low UBE2L3 expression were lower than those in those with high UBE2L3 expression, and the differences were statistically significant (all P < 0.05). Correlation analysis showed that the expression level of UBE2L3 in HNSCC tissues was positively correlated with the number of Th2 cells ( R = 0.182) and NK cells ( R = 0.172), and negatively correlated with the number of Treg cells ( R = -0.095), dendritic cells ( R = -0.099), Th17 cells ( R = -0.129), CD8 + T cells ( R = -0.146), mast cells ( R = -0.161), T cells ( R = -0.171), and B cells ( R = -0.188), and the differences were statistically significant (all P > 0.05). Conclusions:UBE2L3 can promote the proliferation and inhibit the apoptosis of HNSCC cells probably by regulating the cell cycle and apoptosis signaling pathways through Cyclin D1, bcl-2, and Bax. UBE2L3 may be associated with immune cell infiltration in the HNSCC microenvironment.

Objective:To analyze the epidemiologic characteristics of avian influenza virus and the molecular characteristics and genetic evolution of H9N2 subtype avian influenza viruses in the live poultry markets in Fujian province in 2021-2023.Methods:Six types of specimens were collected from five cities in Fujian province. The specimens were subjected to nucleic acid detection for influenza A viruses, subtypes H5, H7, and H9 by fluorescence quantitative PCR, and the results were analyzed statistically with χ2 test. Specimens with Ct value less than 31 were screened for targeted amplification and next-generation sequencing of the hemagglutinin (HA) and neuraminidase (NA) genes. Reference sequences were downloaded from the databases, and the characteristics of molecular variation and genetic evolution were analyzed by using bioinformatics softwares. Results:From 2021 to 2023, a total of 1 853 specimens were collected from five cities, with a positive rate of 50.94% for influenza A viruses, including 684 specimens of H9 subtype, 23 specimens of H5 subtype, 1 specimen of H7 subtype, 28 specimens of H5 and H9 subtype, 1 specimen of H7 and H9 subtype, and 207 specimens of unclassified A-type. There were significant differences in the positive detection rates of influenza A viruses in different cities( χ2=461.82, P<0.001). Statistically significant differences in influenza A virus positivity rates across years and quarters( χ2=12.26, P=0.002; χ2=30.12, P<0.001), with higher rates of 56.39% and 55.34% in the first and third quarters, respectively. And the differences in the positive rates of influenza A viruses in different types of specimens were statistically significant( χ2=23.05, P<0.001), with specimens on the cage surface having a positivity rate of 56.09%, which was the highest of all types of specimens. A total of 24 strains of HA and NA genes of H9N2 subtype were fully sequenced. Compared with the sequence of NCBI database, the highest identity of HA gene nucleotide sequences ranged from 97.03% to 99.87%, and the highest identity of NA gene nucleotide sequences ranged from 97.50% to 99.78%.Twenty-three strains with both HA and NA genes belonged to the G57 genotype in the Y280-like evolutionary branch of the Eurasian lineage, and one strain belonged to the Y439-like evolutionary branch of the Eurasian lineage. The cleavage sites of all the strains showed the characteristic of low pathogenicity, and most strains had receptor binding sites characterized by avian-derived and human receptors. Conclusions:The overall positive rate of avian influenza viruses in live poultry markets in Fujian province was relatively high, especially in the first and third quarters, with H9 subtype accounting for the main proportion. Most of H9N2 subtype belonged to the Y280-like G57 genotype with a small number of Y439-like evolutionary branches, suggesting the possibility of genetic recombination and the risk of human infection. Thus, surveillance of avian influenza viruses in the live poultry markets as well as mutation analysis should continue to be strengthened.
