Objective:To explore the impact of marital status on the prognosis of adult patients with primary intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma.Methods:3283 patients with primary intrahepatic single tube carcinoma from 1998 to 2018 were collected.They were divided into married group(n=1999)and unmarried group(n=1284)based on marital status.The clinical data of adult patients with primary intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma of different marital statuses were compared.Kaplan Meier survival curves were used to analyze the survival status of adult patients with primary intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma in different marital statuses.Univariate and multivariate Cox regression analysis were used to investigate the factors affecting the survival of adult patients with primary intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma.Kaplan Meier survival curves were used to analyze the survival status of adult patients with primary intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma in different marital statuses,including whether they received surgical treatment,radiotherapy treatment,and gender differences.Results:The proportion of male patients,the proportion of white patients,the proportion of patients over 60 years old,the proportion of patients receiving surgical treatment,the proportion of patients receiving radiotherapy,and the proportion of patients receiving chemotherapy in the married group were higher than those in the unmarried group(P＜0.05).Kaplan Meier survival curve analysis results showed that,the 3-month and 5-year survival rates between married and unmarried groups were Log-rank test P＜0.05.Multivariate Cox regression analysis showed that,age over 60 years old,later tumor stage,surgical treatment,radiotherapy,and chemotherapy were risk factors for survival in adult patients with primary intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma(P＜0.05).Kalplan Meier survival curve results showed that,there was no significant difference in 5-year survival rate between married and unmarried adult patients with primary intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma who received surgical treatment(Log-Rank test P=0.381).There was a significant difference in the 5-year survival rate between married and unmarried adult patients with primary intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma who have not received surgical treatment(Log-Rank test P=0.015).There was no significant difference in 5-year survival rate between married and unmarried adult patients with primary intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma who received radiotherapy(Log-Rank test P=0.073).There was a significant difference in the 5-year survival rate between married and unmarried adult patients with primary intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma who have not received radiotherapy(Log-Rank test P＜0.001).There was no significant difference in 5-year survival rate between married and unmarried adult patients with primary intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma who received chemotherapy(Log-Rank test P=0.337).There was a significant difference in the 5-year survival rate between married and unmarried adult patients with primary intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma who have not received chemotherapy(Log-Rank test P＜0.001).There was no significant difference in the survival status of male patients with primary intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma in adults of different marital statuses(Log-Rank test P=0.136).There were differences in the survival status of female patients with primary intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma in adults of different marital statuses(Log-Rank test P＜0.001).Conclusion:Male,white,and over 60 years old are risk factors for the occurrence of primary intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma in adults.Among them,more than half of the patients did not receive surgery or radiotherapy treatment,and about half of the patients did not receive chemotherapy.Married individuals are more likely than unmarried individuals to undergo anti-tumor treatments such as surgery,radiotherapy and chemotherapy.The staging of intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma and whether surgery or chemotherapy is received are independent predictors of long-term survival.Marital status is not an independent predictor and can indirectly affect long-term survival.Male marital status has no significant survival benefits for this disease,while female marital status has survival benefits for this disease.The marital status of patients with intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma who have not undergone radiotherapy,chemotherapy,or surgical intervention has a significant impact on their survival outcomes.

Objective To evaluate the prognosis and safety of patients with advanced pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma(PDAC)who received I-125 seed implantation in treatment with anti-PD-1 monoclonal antibody+chemotherapy.Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on patients with stage Ⅳ metastatic PDAC who received anti-PD-1 combined chemotherapy treatment at Yixing Hospital,Jiangsu University from Jan 2021 to Jun 2023.Patients were divided into two groups based on whether they received I-125 seed implantation:the I-125 seed implantation+anti-PD-1 monoclonal antibody+Chemotherapy group(IPC group)and the anti-PD-1 monoclonal antibody+chemotherapy group(PC group).The follow-up period ranged from 2 to 24 months,with a median follow-up time of 9 months.The prognosis of patients was analysed in combination with peripheral blood biomarkers.The peripheral lymphocyte subsets of patients in different treatment groups were preliminarily analysed by flow cytometry.Results A total of 13 patients were included,with 5 in the IPC group and 8 in the PC group.Progression-free survival(PFS)and overall survival(OS)in the IPC group were significantly longer than those in the PC group.The treatment in the IPC group was relatively safe,adverse reactions were controllable.The neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio(NLR)and CD4/CD8 ratio indicated that the prognosis of the IPC patients was better.The levels of regulatory T cells(Treg)and active regulatory T cells(aTreg)cells in the IPC patients were reduced after treatment compared with those of the PC patients.Conclusion The addition of I-125 seed implantation can improve the prognosis of patients with advanced PDAC who receive anti-PD-1 monoclonal antibody+chemotherapy,the post-treatment levels of patients'circulating aTreg cells are reduced,and the combination therapy has good safety.

AIM To investigate the effects of Wenfei Jiangzhuo Formula on mitochondrial function of Aβ25-35-induced BV-2 cells.METHODS In the establishment of cell model of Alzheimer's disease(AD)using Aβ25-35 on the BV-2 cells,the optimal concentration and time point of Aβ25-35 intervention were determined;and the groups for the intervention of LFHP-1c group(inhibitor)or the serum containing Wenfei Jiangzhuo Formula were set up.The detection of the optimal intervention concentration and time point by CCK-8 assay;the observation of cell migration and apoptosis by Transwell assay and Hoechst 33342 staining;the detection of the positive expressions of PGAM5 and Drp1 by immunofluorescence;and the detection of cellular PGAM5,Drp1,OPA1,and Mfn1/2 mRNA and protein expressions by RT-qPCR and Western blot were conducted.RESULTS The best AD cell model was established by 48 h exposure to 5 μmol/L of Aβ25-35,and most active cell viability was achieved with the 48 h use of serum containing 20％Wenfei Jiangzhuo Formula.Compared with the control group,the model group displayed decreased number of cell migration,more bright blue positive apoptotic cells,increased number of PGAM5 and Drp1 positive cells and their mRNA and protein expressions(P＜0.05);and decreased mRNA and protein expressions of OPA1 and Mfn1/2(P＜0.05).Compared with the model group,the groups intervened with the medicines shared increased number of cell migration,less bright blue positive apoptotic cells,decreased number of PGAM5 and Drp1 positive cells and their mRNA and protein expressions(P＜0.05);and elevated OPA1 and Mfn1/2 mRNA and protein expressions(P＜0.05).CONCLUSION Wenfei Jiangzhuo Formula exerts cerebroprotective effects to improve cognition by reducing cell damage and improving the balance of mitochondrial homeostasis through PGAM5-Drp1 axis in AD model.

Objective:To evaluate the application effect of mindfulness-based stress reduction(MBSR)therapy on the patients treated with image fusion-guided transperineal prostate biopsy.Methods:A total of 160 patients who underwent image fusion-guided transperineal prostate biopsy in the Urology Department from April 2023 to April 2024 were included.Patients were randomly assigned to a control group and an observation group,with 80 cases in each group.The control group received routine care,while the observa-tion group received combined MBSR on the basis of routine care.The surgical indicators,pain levels,psychological states,nursing satisfaction,and postoperative complication rates of both groups were compared.Results:There was no statistically significant differ-ence in general personal information and clinical data between the two groups(P＞0.05).The surgery duration,secondary fusion rate,and postoperative complication rate in the observation group were all lower than those in the control group([23.54±2.07]min vs[26.25±1.69]min,P＜0.05;8.75％vs 22.50％,P=0.017;17％vs 29％,P=0.036),and nursing satisfaction was higher in the observation group than in the control group(77％vs 69％,P=0.025).The VAS scores biopsy(5.11±0.93 vs 6.27±1.32,P=0.041),discharge(0.74±0.67 vs 1.85±0.95,P=0.004),and scores of SDS(47.76±2.06 vs 50.46±2.07,P=0.009)and SAS(46.89±2.68 vs 49.75±2.83,P=0.031)in the observation group were all lower than those in the control group.Conclusion:The application of MBSR in image fusion-guided prostate biopsy can synergistically utilize the advantages of minimally in-vasive technology,significantly optimize surgical indicators,and improve patients' psychological experiences,which is worthy of clinical application and promotion.

Cemental tear is a rare and indetectable condition unless obvious clinical signs present with the involvement of surrounding periodontal and periapical tissues. Due to its clinical manifestations similar to common dental issues, such as vertical root fracture, primary endodontic diseases, and periodontal diseases, as well as the low awareness of cemental tear for clinicians, misdiagnosis often occurs. The critical principle for cemental tear treatment is to remove torn fragments, and overlooking fragments leads to futile therapy, which could deteriorate the conditions of the affected teeth. Therefore, accurate diagnosis and subsequent appropriate interventions are vital for managing cemental tear. Novel diagnostic tools, including cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT), microscopes, and enamel matrix derivatives, have improved early detection and management, enhancing tooth retention. The implementation of standardized diagnostic criteria and treatment protocols, combined with improved clinical awareness among dental professionals, serves to mitigate risks of diagnostic errors and suboptimal therapeutic interventions. This expert consensus reviewed the epidemiology, pathogenesis, potential predisposing factors, clinical manifestations, diagnosis, differential diagnosis, treatment, and prognosis of cemental tear, aiming to provide a clinical guideline and facilitate clinicians to have a better understanding of cemental tear.
