Bariatric and metabolic surgery has become a primary treatment for decompensated obesity, with the number of procedures rapidly increasing in China in recent years. Various improved and novel surgical techniques have emerged. Given the characteristics of the Chinese obese population lower body mass index compared to Western populations and frequent pancreatic islet dysfunction laparoscopic Roux-en-Y gastric bypass remains one of the mainstream procedures in China. Although the Procedural Guideline for Laparoscopic Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass (2019 Edition) has provided standardized surgical steps, mastering and routinely implementing the procedure in clinical practice continues to pose significant challenges. Compared to laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy, laparoscopic Roux-en-Y gastric bypass is more technically demanding and requires a longer learning curve. To avoid suboptimal weight loss or severe postoperative complications resulting from non-standardized techniques, this article summarizes the authors' clinical experience, emphasizing key technical steps: creation of the gastric pouch, standardization of gastrojejunal and jejunojejunal anastomoses, hiatal closure, and full serosalization. These insights aim to improve procedural safety and therapeutic efficacy by offering a set of practical process optimization strategies.

In ground-based experiments,ultraviolet irradiation is used to charge simulated lunar dust,aiming to quantitatively study its charging and discharging behavior in space environments.However,due to factors such as vacuum and dust disturbances,the charging and discharging processes of lunar dust are difficult to measure accurately through contact methods.Therefore,this paper designs and constructs a non-contact,in-situ surface potential measurement system based on the principle of vibrating capacitance,suitable for vacuum environments.The system combines moving average and standard deviation methods for data filtering and introduces a weighted KNN algorithm to predict and compensate for missing or anomalous data,thereby improving measurement accuracy and stability.Two typical simulated lunar dust samples,TYII-2 and CLRS-1A,were selected for charging and discharging experiments under ultraviolet irradiation.The surface potential distribution was obtained in real-time using an in-situ motion mechanism equipped with a vibrating capacitance sensor.The results show significant differences in the charging response and dissipation characteristics of the samples with different particle size distributions.

Objective To investigate the safety and efficacy of mechanical thrombectomy combined with umbilical cord blood mononuclear cell microtransplantation in the treatment of patients with acute ischemic stroke due to large vessel occlusion. Methods A prospective study was conducted among 61 patients with acute ischemic stroke due to large vessel occlusion in the anterior intracranial circulation who underwent mechanical thrombectomy in our hospital from February 2021 to February 2023， and they were randomly divided into experimental group and control group. The patients in the experimental group underwent mechanical thrombectomy combined with umbilical cord blood mononuclear cell microtransplantation， while those in the control group underwent mechanical thrombectomy alone， and there was no difference in conventional drug treatment between the two groups. The Mann-Whitney U test， chi-square test， and logistic regression analysis were used， with P<0.05 indicating statistical significance. Results There were no significant abnormalities in blood tests and imaging findings in either group at 90 days and 6 months after treatment. There was no significant difference in the degree of neurological deficit （NIHSS score） between the two groups before surgery and on days 1，3，7， and 30 after surgery （P>0.05）. The experimental group had a higher overall response rate （the proportion of patients with an mRS score of ≤2 on day 90 after surgery） than the control group [41.4% （12/29） vs 32.2% （10/31）， P>0.05]. There was no significant difference in limb motor function [Fugl-Meyer Assessment （FMA） score] between the two groups before surgery（P>0.05）， and the experimental group had a better FMA score than the control group on day 90 after surgery（P<0.05）. Conclusion Mechanical thrombectomy combined with umbilical cord blood mononuclear cell microtransplantation can effectively improve the long-term functional prognosis of patients， with a favorable safety profile.

Objective To explore the protective effect of hydroalcoholic extract of Portulaca oleracea L.(POHA)on ulcerative colitis(UC)and bone loss in mice.Methods The C57BL/6 mice were treated with dextran sulfate sodium(DSS)to establish UC model.A total of 50 mice were randomly assigned to including control group,DSS group,mesalazine(MS)group,low dose of POHA(POHAL)group,or high dose of POHA(POHAH)group.The control group freely drank drinking water,while the DSS,MS,POHAL and POHAH groups drank drinking water containing DSS for 8 weeks.Since the 2nd week,the control group and DSS group were given normal saline by gavage.The MS group was given MS(100 mg/kg)by gavage.The POHAL group and POHAH group were given POHA(1 000 mg/kg and 2 000 mg/kg)by gavage,respectively.Body weight and disease activity index(DAI)were recorded and calculated every 2 d.On the 56th day,the colon weight index,liver index,and spleen index were calculated,and the histological changes of colon were observed.Serum levels of bone metabolism markers and microstructure parameters of femur were detected.Results Compared with the control group,the DSS group showed significantly increased DAI score,colon weight index,liver index,and spleen index(all P＜0.01).The DSS group exhibited significant pathological damage in colon tissues and significantly increased serum levels of osteocalcin,C-terminal peptide of collagen type Ⅰ,and tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase 5b(P＜0.01).The bone loss was significant in the DSS group,manifested by markedly decreased bone mineral density(BMD),bone tissue volume to tissue volume ratio(BV/TV),trabecular bone number(Tb.N),and trabecular bone thickness(Tb.Th),and markedly increased bone surface to bone volume ratio(BS/BV)and trabecular bone separation(Tb.Sp)(P＜0.05 or P＜0.01).Compared with the DSS group,the BMD,BV/TV,Tb.N and Tb.Th of the femur in the MS group and POHAH group of mice were all increased(P＜0.05 or P＜0.01),the BS/BV all decreased(P＜0.05 or P＜0.01),and the Tb.Sp all decreased without significant differences(all P＞0.05).The above bone microstructure parameters in the POHAL group showed no significant differences compared with those in the DSS group(all P＞0.05).Conclusion POHA has protective effect on DSS-induced UC and bone loss,and the mechanism may be related to the inhibition of hyperactive bone metabolism.

Objective To explore the value of apparent diffusion coefficient(ADC)values of magnetic resonance diffusion weighted imaging(MR-DWI)in predicting the prognosis of primary hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC)treated by radiofrequency ablation(RFA).Methods A prospective study was conducted on 178 patients with HCC.All patients were treated with RFA and followed up for 1 year after treatment.MR-DWI was performed before RFA and one month after RFA,and the changes in ADC value were calculated.These changes of the cancer in patients with different clinicopathological parameters were compared.The factors affecting the prognosis of HCC patients with RFA,and the value of ADC value changes in predicting the prognosis were analyzed.Results The changes of ADC values in patients with high alpha-fetoprotein,Barcelona clinic live cancer(BCLC)stage C,and poorly differentiated were lower than those in patients with low alpha-fetoprotein,BCLC stage B,and moderately well-differentiated(P<0.05).Six cases were lost to follow-up,and 120 of the remaining 172 patients survived.Cox regression analysis showed that the changes in ADC value,tumor stage and degree of differentiation were independent factors affecting the prognosis of HCC patients with RFA(P<0.05).Receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve results showed that the best cut-off point,sensitivity,specificity and area under the curve(AUC)of ADC value change in predicting the prognosis of HCC patients with RFA were 0.42×10-3 mm2/s,75.00%,78.33%and 0.801.There were 16 deaths in the high change group of ADC value(>0.42)and 36 deaths in the low change group(≤0.42).The overall survival curve of the high change group of ADC value was better than that of the low change group(P<0.05).Conclusion The change in ADC value of MR-DWI sequence before and after short-term RFA treatment in HCC patients is related to the patient's pathology and prognosis,with a good predictive effect.The low change in ADC value has a higher risk of poor prognosis.

Objective:To establish a nucleic acid detection and genotyping method for Mycoplasma pneumoniae ( Mp) based on nucleic acid in clinical samples. Methods:Through genomic comparison, the specific target sequences of Genotype 1 and Genotype 2 Mp strains were selected to design synthetic primers and probes, and a PCR detection and classification method for Mp dual fluorescent probe was established, and the specificity, accuracy, detection limit and repeatability of the method were evaluated. The established fluorescence PCR method was used to detect the nucleic acid of clinical specimens and compared with the reported fluorescent PCR methods. Results:The nucleic acid of 18 pathogens, including other species of Mycoplasma and common respiratory bacteria and viruses, which were closely related to the Mp species, were detected, and the results showed that there was no cross-reactivity. The accuracy of detection and typing of 90 Mp nucleic acid was 100%. The detection limits of Genotype 1 and Genotype 2 Mp samples were 1.0 copy/μl, and the experimental coefficient of variation of repeatability within groups and between groups was less than 2.5%. In the detection of 88 nucleic acid of clinical specimens, the Kappa value was 0.675 and the P value was 0.267 compared with the reported real-time PCR method, showing a high degree of agreement. Conclusions:The method for detecting and genotyping Mp in this study has high sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy, which can be applied to the monitoring and prevention and control of Mp in the disease control system of provinces and cities at all levels in China. This method promotes the improvement of the Mp prevention and control system in China, strengthens the surveillance ability, and is of great significance for the early warning and prediction of Mp.

Objective To investigate the expression of miR-204 and silence information regulator 1(SIRT1)in colorectal cancer and their clinical value.Methods Cancer tissue specimens and paracancer tissue specimens of 60 patients with colorectal cancer treated in Department of Gastrointestinal Surgery of Affiliated Hospital of Jiaxing University from May 2018 to June 2020 were collected as study objects.Real time fluorogenic quantitative polymerase chain reaction was used to detect the gene expression of miR-204 and SIRT1,and the correlation between miR-204 and SIRT1 gene expression was compared by Pearson analysis.Immunohistochemical SABC method was used to detect SIRT1 protein expression,and relationship between different SIRT1 protein expression and clinicopathological features was compared.Kaplan-Meier method was used to analyze the survival difference of colorectal cancer patients with different SIRT1 protein expression.Results The mRNA expression of miR-204 gene in cancer tissues was significantly lower than that in paracancer tissues(P<0.05),and the mRNA expression of SIRT1 gene was significantly higher than that in paracancer tissues(P<0.05).Pearson correlation analysis showed that miR-204 was negatively correlated with SIRT1 mRNA expression in both paracancer tissues and cancer tissues(r=-0.647,-0.737,P<0.05).The expression of SIRT1 protein was correlated with the differentiation level,invasion level,lymph node metastasis and TNM stage of colorectal cancer(P<0.05),but not with patient age,gender,tumor size and tumor site(P>0.05).Kaplan-Meier analysis showed that the survival rate of patients with positive expression of SIRT1 in cancer tissues was significantly lower than that of patients with negative expression of SIRT1(χ2=5.001,P=0.025).Conclusion The expression of miR-204 is down-regulated and SIRT1 expression is up-regulated in colorectal cancer tissues,which may jointly promote the metastasis and invasion of colorectal cancer and affect the prognosis of patients through mutual influence.

Objective To analyze the risk factors for extrauterine growth retardation(EUGR)in late preterm infants appropriate for gestational age.Methods The clinical data in 1 402 preterm infants appropri-ate for gestational age delivered and hospitalized in this hospital from January 2016 to June 2022 were analyzed retrospectively.They were divided into the EUGR group(n=244)and the non-EUGR group(n=1 158)ac-cording to whether or not the body weight at discharge was below the 10th percentile of the growth curve for the same gestational age at the same period based on the Fenton's preterm growth curve.The clinical data of preterm infants and mothers of the two groups were collected.The risk factors for EUGR occurrence in pre-mature infants were analyzed.Results Among 1 402 preterm infants appropriate for gestational age,EUGR occurred in 244 cases with the EUGR incidence rate of 17.4％.The EUGR incidence rate had no statistical difference among the different fetal ages of premature infants(P＞0.05).The EUGR incidence rate had sta-tistical difference among different birth weights of premature infants(P＜0.05).The logistic regression anal-ysis showed that male(OR=1.694,95％CI:1.144-2.507),low birth weight(OR=0.989,95％CI:0.988-0.991),feeding intolerance(OR=2.719,95％CI:1.234-5.990),short gestational weeks(OR=0.146,95％CI:0.103-0.207)and hospitalization duration extension(OR=1.073,95％CI:1.031-1.117)were the risk factors for EUGR occurrence in late premature infants appropriate for gestational age in discharge.The sub-group analysis showed that male,low birth weight,feeding intolerance and hospitalization duration extension were the risk factors for EUGR occurrence in the preterm infants with gestational ages of 34-＜36 weeks(P＜0.05).Low birth weight and feeding intolerance only affected the preterm infants≥36 weeks of gesta-tional age(P＜0.05).Conclusion Strengthening the pregnant duration health care and active nutritional sup-port after birth may reduce the risk of EUGR occurrence in late premature infants.
