The diameter of gallbladder polyp was 2‍ ‍—‍ ‍8 mm， and pathological examination showed inflammatory polyps in three patients， adenomatous polyps in one patient， and cholesterol polyps in four patients. There were no complications during or after surgery. The patients were followed up for 2‍ ‍—‍ ‍27 months after surgery， and no recurrence of gallbladder polyp was observed. ConclusionOral cholangiopancreatography is technically safe and feasible in endoscopic major duodenal papilla cholecystectomy.

Objective:To explore the value of spectral CT parameters combined with dynamic contrast enhanced magnetic resonance imaging（DCE-MRI） parameters in the short-term efficacy of concurrent chemoradiotherapy for nasopharyngeal carcinoma. Methods: A total of 110 cases with nasopharyngeal carcinoma Ⅲ-Ⅳ staging who received synchronous radiotherapy and chemotherapy at our Hospital from October 2022 to October 2024 were regarded as the study subjects. Complying with the evaluation results after radiotherapy and chemotherapy, they were divided into a complete remission（CR） group of 53 cases and a non CR group of 57 cases. All patients underwent DCE-MRI and energy dispersive CT scans to obtain parameters, such as iodine concentration（IC）, volume transfer constant（Ktrans）, slope of spectral HU curve（λHU）, rate constant（Kep）, and normalized iodine concentration（NIC）. Logistic regression analysis was used to screen for influencing factors. ROC curve was used to analyze the evaluation value of various parameters. In addition, Z-test was used to compare area under the curve（AUC）. Results:The proportion of retropharyngeal lymph node metastasis and λHUvalue in the non CR group were higher than those in the CR group, while Ktrans, Kep, IC value, and NIC value were lower than those in the CR group（P<0.05）. Retropharyngeal lymph node metastasis, Ktrans, Kep, IC value, λHUvalue, and NIC value were all influencing factors（P<0.05）. The AUC of individual prediction of Ktrans, Kep, IC value, λHUvalue, and NIC value was 0.817, 0.800, 0.785, 0.783, and 0.835, respectively. The AUC of the combination of DCE-MRI parameters, the combination of spectral CT parameters, and the combination of the five parameters were 0.874, 0.900, and 0.980, respectively, the AUC of the combination of the five parameters was significantly higher than the AUC of each indicator alone, the AUC of the combination of DCE-MRI parameters, and the AUC of the combination of spectral CT parameters（P<0.05）. Conclusion:The DCE-MRI, and spectral CT parameters （Ktrans, Kep, IC value, λHUvalue, and NIC value）can be used to evaluate concurrent radiotherapy and chemotherapy short-term efficacy for nasopharyngeal carcinoma. And the combination of various parameters can greatly improve the predictive value of efficacy, which has important clinical application value.

Ischemic stroke (IS) is a prevalent neurological disorder often resulting in significant disability or mortality. Resveratrol, extracted from Polygonum cuspidatum Sieb. et Zucc. (commonly known as Japanese knotweed), has been recognized for its potent neuroprotective properties. However, the neuroprotective efficacy of its derivative, (E)-4-(3,5-dimethoxystyryl) quinoline (RV02), against ischemic stroke remains inadequately explored. This study aimed to evaluate the protective effects of RV02 on neuronal ischemia-reperfusion injury both in vitro and in vivo. The research utilized an animal model of middle cerebral artery occlusion/reperfusion and SH-SY5Y cells subjected to oxygen-glucose deprivation and reperfusion to simulate ischemic conditions. The findings demonstrate that RV02 attenuates neuronal mitochondrial damage and scavenges reactive oxygen species (ROS) through mitophagy activation. Furthermore, Parkin knockdown was found to abolish RV02's ability to activate mitophagy and neuroprotection in vitro. These results suggest that RV02 shows promise as a neuroprotective agent, with the activation of Parkin-mediated mitophagy potentially serving as the primary mechanism underlying its neuroprotective effects.

Objective To investigate the changes of residual radioactivity at different time points after 131I treatment in the patients with differentiated thyroid cancer(DTC)and influencing factors.Methods A to-tal of 235 patients with DTC receiving 131I treatment in this hospital from January 2021 to June 2023 were se-lected as the study subjects and divided into the high dose group(＞5.55 GBp,n=56)and low dose group(≤5.55 GBp,n=179)according to the treatment dose.The clinical data of the two groups were collected and the changes of residual radioactivity after 131I treatment were compared between the two groups.The binary re-gression was used to analyze its influencing factors.Results The sex,age,BMI,basic metabolic rate(BMR)and serum thyroglobulin antibody(TgAb)had no statistical differences between the two groups(P＞0.05).The proportions of serum thyroglobulin(TG)＜1 ng/mL,131I first time treatment and residual thyroid ratio prompted by the whole body 131I scan after treatment in the low dose group were significantly higher than those in the high dose group(P＜0.05).The residual radioactivity in the two groups was significantly de-creased with time extension.The residual radioactivity at 24,48,72 h after treatment in the low dose group was significantly lower than that in the high dose group(P＜0.05).The binary logistic regression analysis re-sults showed that the T stage and treatment dose were the influencing factors of residual radioactivity after 131I treatment.Conclusion The residual radioactivity after 131I treatment in the patients with DTC shows the significant decreasing trend with time extension,this change trend has an active significance for further opti-mizing and perfecting the isolation and protection scheme.For the patients with high T stage and big treat-ment dose,the isolation time should exceed 72 h.

Objective To explore the relevant relationship and specificity between the implicit and explicit loyalty of military cadets in order to provide a theoretical basis and objective indicators for a more comprehensive and objective assessment for individual loyalty.Methods E-Prime 2.0,a classic implicit association paradigm was employed to construct an implicit association loyalty test for 64 military cadets.Simultaneously,an explicit loyalty measurement was conducted using the Chinese Military Personnel Loyalty Scale.Results ① Significant implicit effect was observed in the loyalty assessment of military cadets,indicating a general tendency to perceive higher levels of personal loyalty and lower levels of loyalty to external entities.② Explicit loyalty assessment revealed that the participants had the highest loyalty score towards the Party,the Nation,and the People(4.79±0.34),followed by the loyalty score to their profession(4.38±0.53),and the relatively lower loyalty score towards the unit and leaders(4.03±0.83).Among the 3 dimensions of loyalty,the normative loyalty score ranked highest,while continuance loyalty score took lower.③ There were no correlations among the scores of loyalty to the Party,the Nation,and the People(r=-0.030,P=0.823),to the profession(r=-0.047,P=0.728),to the unit(r=0.050,P=0.710),or to the leaders(r=0.043,P=0.749).Conclusion The implicit effect in the loyalty assessment is significant in military cadets,and there is no significant correlation between explicit and implicit loyalty measurements.Thus,we cannot rely solely on explicit measurements to assess their loyalty attitudes.

Objective:To evaluate the role of minimal residual disease (MRD) monitoring during early induction therapy for the treatment of childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL).Methods:This was a multicenter retrospective cohort study. Clinical data of 1 164 ALL patients first diagnosed between October 2016 and June 2019 was collected from 16 hospitals in South China Children′s Leukemia Group. According to MRD assay on day 15 of early induction therapy, they were divided into MRD<0.10% group, MRD 0.10%-<10.00% group and MRD≥10.00% group. According to MRD assay on day 33, they were divided into MRD<0.01% group, MRD 0.01%-<1.00% group and MRD≥1.00% group. Age, onset white blood cell count, central nervous system leukemia (CNSL), molecular genetic characteristics and other data were compared between groups. Kaplan-Meier method was used for survival analysis. Cox regression model was used to analyze prognostic factors.Results:Of the 1 164 enrolled patients, there were 692 males and 472 females. The age of diagnosis was 4.7 (0.5, 17.4) years. The white blood cell count at initial diagnosis was 10.7 (0.4, 1 409.0) ×10 9/L. Among all patients, 53 cases (4.6%) had CNSL. The follow-up time was 47.6 (0.5, 68.8) months. The 5-year overall survival (OS) and 5-year relapse-free survival (RFS) rates were (93.1±0.8) % and (90.3±1.1) %. On day 15 of early induction therapy, there were 466 cases in the MRD<0.10% group, 523 cases in the MRD 0.10%-<10.00% group and 175 cases in the MRD≥10.00% group. The 5-year OS rates of the MRD<0.10% group, MRD 0.10%-<10.00% group and MRD≥10.00% group were (95.4±1.0) %, (93.3±1.1) %, (85.4±2.9) %, respectively, while the RFS rates were (93.2±1.6) %, (90.8±1.4) %, (78.9±4.3) %, respectively ( χ2=16.47, 21.06, both P<0.05). On day 33 of early induction therapy, there were 925 cases in the MRD <0.01% group, 164 cases in the MRD 0.01%-<1.00% group and 59 cases in the MRD≥1.00% group. The 5-year RFS rates in the MRD 0.01%-<1.00% group was lowest among three groups ((91.4±1.2) % vs. (84.5±3.2) % vs. (87.9±5.1) %). The difference between three groups is statistically significant ( χ2=9.11, P=0.010). Among ALL patients with MRD≥10.00% on day 15 of induction therapy, there were 80 cases in the MRD <0.01% group on day 33, 45 cases in the MRD 0.01%-<1.00% group on day 33 and 45 cases in the MRD≥1.00% group on day 33. The 5-year RFS rates of three groups were (83.9±6.0)%, (67.1±8.2)%, (83.3±6.9)% respectively ( χ2=6.90, P=0.032). Univariate analysis was performed in the MRD≥10.00% group on day 15 and the MRD 0.01%-<1.00% group on day 33.The 5-year RFS rate of children with CNSL was significantly lower than that without CNSL in the MRD≥10.00% group on day 15 ((50.0±20.4)% vs. (80.3±4.4)%, χ2=4.13, P=0.042). Patients with CNSL or MLL gene rearrangement in the MRD 0.01%-<1.00% group on day 33 had significant lower 5-year RFS rate compared to those without CNSL or MLL gene rearrangement ((50.0±25.0)% vs. (85.5±3.1)%, χ2=4.06, P=0.044;(58.3±18.6)% vs. (85.7±3.2)%, χ2=9.44, P=0.002). Multivariate analysis showed that age ( OR=0.58, 95% CI 0.35-0.97) and white blood cell count at first diagnosis ( OR=0.43, 95% CI 0.27-0.70) were independent risk factors for OS. The MRD level on day 15 ( OR=0.55,95% CI 0.31-0.97), ETV6-RUNX1 fusion gene ( OR=0.13,95% CI 0.03-0.54), MLL gene rearrangement ( OR=2.55,95% CI 1.18-5.53) and white blood cell count at initial diagnosis ( OR=0.52,95% CI 0.33-0.81) were independent prognostic factors for RFS. Conclusions:The higher the level of MRD in early induction therapy, the worse the OS. The MRD levels on day 15 is an independent prognostic factor for RFS.The MRD in early induction therapy guided accurate risk stratification and individualized treatment can improve the survival rate of pediatric ALL.

Acute idiopathic maculopathy(AIM)is an inflammatory lesion of unknown cause that primarily affects the macula. It follows a unique natural course, distinct from other maculopathy, often manifesting as a sudden loss of visual acuity followed by flu-like symptoms that gradually resolve as the disease subsides. A comprehensive understanding of the unique history, multimodal imaging, and a thorough systematic examination are crucial in determining the final diagnosis of AIM. The treatment and prognosis of AIM remain controversial. Meanwhile, it presents similar clinical manifestations and pathological changes to various chorioretinopathy, posing challenges for clinical differentiation. This article provides a review of its pathogenesis, clinical symptoms, multimodal imaging features, diagnosis and differential diagnosis, treatment and prognosis, in order to reduce misdiagnosis and mistreatment while enhancing comprehension of AIM.
