Objective:To analyze the screening results of the Urban Cancer Early Diagnosis and Treatment Project in Qinghai Province from 2019 to 2024.Methods:A summary and statistical analysis were conducted on six years of screening data from the Urban Cancer Early Dia-gnosis and Treatment Program in Qinghai Province,with the high-risk rate,screening rate,and detection rate calculated separately for each type of cancer.Results:From 2019 to 2024,56,882 high-risk individuals were identified.The high-risk rates for lung,colorectal,breast,up-per gastrointestinal,and liver cancer were 22.02%,21.57%,14.23%,13.52%,and 6.10%,respectively.Overall,13,592 individuals com-pleted clinical screening,with detection rates of 0.32%for lung cancer,0.41%for liver cancer,0.08%for precancerous gastric lesions,3.63%for precancerous colorectal lesions,0.08%for esophageal cancer,0.16%for gastric cancer,and 0.14%for colorectal cancer.Conclusions:The implementation of the Urban Cancer Early Diagnosis and Treatment Program in Qinghai Province aids in the early detection of cancer,improves early diagnosis and survival rates,and reduces mortality.Nevertheless,due to low public awareness and limited participation,en-hancements in program management and public outreach are required.

Objective:To develop and validate a clinical prediction model for assessing the risk of postoperative pulmonary complications (PPCs) in elderly patients undergoing surgery with general anesthesia.Methods:This prospective observational study enrolled patients aged ≥65 years who underwent general anesthesia with mechanical ventilation duration >3 hours across six tertiary hospitals between December 2022 and August 2023. Based on follow-up outcomes (until discharge or postoperative day 7), patients were categorized into a non-PPCs group and a PPCs group. Detailed records included baseline patient characteristics, preoperative comorbidities, surgical information (type, duration), and bedside lung ultrasound scores (LUS) assessed within 24 hours postoperatively using a standardized 12-zone protocol. Predictor selection was performed using LASSO regression. Significant predictors identified were incorporated into a multivariate logistic regression analysis to build the prediction model, visualized as a nomogram. Internal validation was conducted via bootstrap resampling (1 000 repetitions). Model performance was evaluated using the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) for discrimination, calibration curves for calibration accuracy, and decision curve analysis (DCA) for clinical utility.Results:A total of 130 eligible elderly surgical patients were included. PPCs occurred in 17 patients (incidence rate: 13.1%). Multivariate analysis identified LUS ( OR=1.248, 95% CI: 1.099-1.417, P=0.001) and elective surgery type ( OR=0.206, 95% CI: 0.043-0.988, P=0.048) as independent predictors of PPCs. The nomogram model demonstrated an AUC of 0.867 (95% CI: 0.775-0.959) upon initial testing. Internal validation confirmed good discrimination (AUC=0.863, 95% CI: 0.778-0.972). Calibration curves indicated excellent agreement between predicted probabilities and observed outcomes. Decision curve analysis demonstrated significant clinical net benefit across a wide range of threshold probabilities (0.03-0.89). Conclusions:The clinical prediction model, developed using early postoperative LUS scores and surgical type, effectively predicts the risk of postoperative pulmonary complications in elderly patients following surgery under general anesthesia. The model exhibits strong discrimination, calibration, and clinical utility, providing clinicians with a reliable tool for individualized risk assessment to support clinical decision-making and potentially reduce PPC incidence.

Objective:To evaluate the recurrence and progression of patients with pT1 high grade urothelial carcinoma of bladder (UCB) and glandular differentiation.Methods:We retrospectively analyzed the clinical and pathological information of 208 patients diagnosed as pT1 high grade urothelial carcinoma in the Fifth Central Hospital of Tianjin from January 2006 to February 2019.Among them, 78 cases were diagnosed as glandular differentiation (UCGD), the other 130 patients without histologic variants were served as control. The UCGD group included 62 male and 16 female, whose median age was 67 years old (range 38-81 years old). The control group contained 105 male and 25 female, whose median age was 66 years old (range 40-82 years old). Kaplan-Meier and Cox proportional hazard regression analyses were used to evaluate the predictors of oncologic outcomes.Results:The disease recurrence rate and progression rate in UCGD group were 65.4% (51/78) and 28.2% (22/78), higher than 38.5%(50/130) and 14.6%(19/130) of control group ( P<0.05). The median recurrence time in UCGD group was 41 months while 55 months in the control group. The median progression time in UCGD group was 39 months while 54 months in the control group. According to the univariate analysis, largest tumor size ( P=0.030), UCGD ( P=0.003) and lymphovascular invasion (LVI) ( P=0.032) were associated with disease recurrence. UCGD ( P=0.036) and LVI ( P=0.011) were associated with progression. Additionally, Cox multivariate analysis revealed that UCGD ( P=0.001), LVI ( P=0.038) were the independent factors of disease recurrence. UCGD ( P=0.007) and LVI ( P=0.037) were also found to be the independent factors of disease progression. Conclusions:Patients with T1 stage UCB and UCGD are at higher risk of disease recurrence and progression. Therefore, these patients should be followed up closely after being diagnosed and undergo individual treatment according to the situation.

Objective: To synthesize a folic acid (FA)-modified pH-sensitive nanomicelle containing sorafenib (SF) and superparamagnetic iron oxide (SPIO), and to access its visibility in MRI and anti-cancer efficacy on hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) in vitro. Methods: The copolymer FA-PEG-Pasp (DBA/DIP) of FA, poly(ethylene glycol), N,N-dibutylethylenediamine and N,N-diisopropylethylenediamine grafted poly (L-aspartic acid) were prepared. SF and SPIO were encapsulated inside the copolymer to synthesize the targeting micelle FA-PEG-PAsp (DBA/DIP)-SPIO/SF (FPASS). The folate-free micelle[PEG-PAsp (DBA/DIP)-SPIO/SF (PASS)] was used as nontargeting micelle. The physicochemical properties and drug release behavior of the micelles were analyzed. MRI of HepG2 cells incubated with FPASS and PASS with different Fe concentrations and Prussian blue staining of cells treated with the micelles (Fe concentration of 20 μg/ml) was performed to assess the drug delivery capability and imaging function of the micelles. For the FA competitive inhibition assay in these experiments, HepG2 cells were pre-treated with an excess amount of free FA prior to the incubation with FPASS. Cell viability, cell apoptosis, cell cycle and tube formation assays were conducted for evaluating the anti-HCC effects of the micelles. Comparison between groups was analyzed by one-way ANOVA, and multiple comparisons correction was performed by LSD test. Results: The diameters of FPASS and PASS were (102.3±5.2) nm and (107.1±5.7) nm, respectively; the δ potentials of them were (29.7±1.6) mV and (31.5±1.4) mV, respectively. The T₂ relaxivity of both the micelles was (5.2±0.4) ml·μg^-1·s^-1, which was much higher than that of water soluble Fe₃O₄ nanoparticles [(2.3±0.1) ml·μg^-1·s^-1; F=76.45, P<0.01]. SF released from the micelles was much faster at pH5.0 than at pH7.4, which indicated that the micelles had a pH-triggered drug release behavior. MRI of HepG2 cell samples revealed the signal intensity on T₂WI images and the T₂ value on T₂-map images decreased with the increasing Fe concentrations in the micelles. At the same Fe concentration (5, 10, 20 and 40 μg/ml), the cells of FPASS group exhibited a more significant decrease in T₂ signal intensity and T₂ value compared with those of PASS group or FA competitive inhibition group (F=8.69, 14.03, 27.27, 32.25 and 19.80, 45.76, 113.20, 66.80; P<0.01). Prussian blue staining verified the existing of SPIO in the cytoplasm of cells. Compared with PASS, FPASS presented significantly higher anticancer effects on inducing apoptosis, causing G0/G1 phase arrest on HepG2 cells and inhibiting tube formation on human umbilical vein endothelial cells (t=7.905, 4.399 and 3.454, respectively; P<0.01). Conclusions The pH-sensitive nanomicelle FPASS was successfully constructed. This micelle possessed a hypersensitive MRI-visible function and a targeting SF delivery capability which may contribute to a significant anti-HCC effect.

? Objective? To explore the application of tsusanli warming moxibustion in early rehabilitation in patients with cerebral infarction. Methods? Totally 120 patients with cerebral infarction and stable vital signs treated in the Department of Neurology of the First People's Hospital of Huzhou from January 2018 to March 2019 were selected using convenient sampling and divided into control (n=60) and observation (n=60) groups according to the random number table. Patients in the control group received routine drug therapy and rehabilitation care, while patients in the observation group received warming moxibustion, routine drug therapy and rehabilitation care. Bathel Index (BI), National Institute of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) and myodynamia were used to compare the effects of intervention. Results? The total effective rate in the observation group was 91.3%, higher than 66.7% in the control group, and there was statistically significant difference between the two groups (P＜0.05). The number of patients with a BI ≥ 75 in the observation group were more than that in the control group 2 and 3 months after treatment, and there was statistically significant difference between the two groups (P＜0.05). The NIHSS score of the observation group was lower than that of the control group 2 and 3 months after treatment, and there was statistically significant difference between the two groups (P＜0.05). Conclusions? Tsusanli warming moxibustion combined with integrated Chinese and Western medical methods in routine rehabilitation care show an obvious effect on the neurological function in patients with cerebral stroke during early rehabilitation, which can also improve their activities of daily living.

Aim ToinvestigatetheeffectsofCa2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase Ⅱ inhibitor KN-93 on calcium overload-induced heart injury.Methods Thirty-twoisolatedratheartswererandomlydivided into the control group,KN-93 control group,calcium paradox group,and calcium paradox with KN-93 treat-ment group.Left ventricular pressure were recorded, and the heart function was evaluated by the left ventric-ular end-diastolic pressure (LVEDP ) and developed pressure (LVDP).Coronary flow (CF)were collect-ed,and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH)content was de-termined.Triphenyltetrazolium chloride staining was usedtomeasuretheinfarctsize.Results Compared with the control group,KN-93 at 2. 5 μmol·L-1 had no effects on coronary flow,cardiac performance and cell death at the end of perfusion in normal rats (P>0. 05 );The hearts of calcium paradox exhibited a de-crease in LVDP and CF,meanwhile an increase in LV-EDP,LDH,and infarct size of 18 ±7. 2% (P <0. 01).2. 5 μmol·L-1 KN-93 further increased the levels of LVEDP,LDH and infarct size (P<0. 01)in Ca2+paradoxical hearts,while it provoked the decline intheCFandLVDP(P<0.01).Conclusion The data demonstrates that KN-93 aggravates heart injury in calcium paradox,it also suggests that CaMKⅡ is in-volved in the Ca2+overload-induced heart injury.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the impact of the regeneration of interstitial cell of Cajal (ICC) on the conduction of slow wave and gastric emptying in rats undergoing Roux-en-Y gastrojejunostomy.

METHODSTwenty male SD rats were randomly divided into experimental group and control group. The experimental group consisted of ten rats undergoing Roux-en-Y gastrojejunostomy. The control group only underwent pyloric transection and anastomosis. Gastric scintigraphy was performed in the two groups respectively to measure the half time of gastric emptying (t1/2) at sixteen weeks after the surgical manipulations, and then the myoelectrical activities near the gastrojejunal anastomosis were recorded. The study also observed the regeneration of ICC by the electron microscopy. The data of the 2 groups was compared by t test.

RESULTSIn the sixteenth postoperative week, the t1/2 was (23.5 ± 4.5) minutes for rats in the Roux-en-Y group and (10.2 ± 2.3) minutes for those in the control group, indicating delayed gastric emptying in the Roux-en-Y group (t=7.978, P=0.000), accompanied with the abnormal myoelectrical activities near the gastrojejunal anastomosis. The morphological detection showed that ICC near the gastrojejunal anastomosis regenerated and reconstructed their network in the rats of the experimental group.

CONCLUSIONThe abnormal myoelectrical activities near the gastrojejunal anastomosis, basing on the regeneration and reconstruction of ICC, may make a significant delay on the gastric emptying.
