Background and Aims:Radical resection is the only potentially curative treatment for intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma(ICC),yet the high recurrence rate results in poor prognosis.In recent years,"textbook outcome"(TO)has been proposed as a comprehensive quality metric,but its association with prognosis remains unclear.This study aimed to analyze the risk factors influencing the achievement of TO after radical resection of ICC and to explore the relationship between TO and survival.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of 180 ICC patients who underwent radical resection at the 904th Hospital of the Joint Logistic Support Force of the PLA between February 2018 and February 2023.Univariate and multivariate Logistic regression analyses were performed to identify risk factors associated with TO,and survival analysis was carried out using the Kaplan-Meier method and Log-rank test.Results:Of the 180 patients,66 achieved TO.Multivariate Logistic regression analysis indicated that preoperative total bilirubin＞22 μmol/L,preoperative CA19-9＞35 U/mL,maximum tumor diameter＞5 cm,poor tumor differentiation,microvascular invasion(MVI),and lymph node metastasis were independent risk factors for failing to achieve TO(all P＜0.05).Survival analysis demonstrated that patients who achieved TO had a significantly longer median survival compared with those who did not(36 months vs.16 months,P＜0.001).Conclusion:Preoperative total bilirubin＞22 μmol/L,preoperative CA19-9＞35 U/mL,maximum tumor diameter＞5 cm,poor tumor differentiation,MVI,and lymph node metastasis are independent risk factors for not achieving TO after radical resection of ICC.Patients who achieved TO exhibited markedly longer survival,suggesting that TO not only reflects perioperative treatment quality but also serves as an important prognostic indicator.Greater attention to these risk factors and optimization of perioperative management may improve the likelihood of achieving TO and enhance long-term outcomes.

Objective To compare the clinical effects of improved rivet double pulley fixation method and traditional Kirschner wire tension band in the treatment of patellar lower pole fractures.Methods 78 patients with patellar inferior pole fractures who underwent surgery in our department between January 2020 and January 2024 and met the inclusion criteria were collected.Divided into two groups according to different fixing methods,the observation group(39 cases)were fixed by modified rivet double pulley,the control group(39 cases)were fixed by steel wire tension band.The operation time,hospital stay,medical expenses,knee motion of the two groups at 1.5 months,3 months and 6 months after surgery,and knee lyshom function score at 3 months and 6 months after surgery were compared between the two groups.Results The observation group had a surgery time of(62.58±6.37)minutes compared to the control group[(60.20±11.18)minutes],and the observation group had a hospital stay of(6.45±1.35)days compared to the control group[(6.40±1.30)days].There was no significant difference in surgical time and hospitalization time between the two group(P＞0.05).The total medical expenses of the observation group were significantly lower than those of the control group(P＜0.05).Knee joint activity in observation group was higher than that in control group at 1.5 months,3 months and 6 months after surgery(P＜0.05),and knee lyshom function scores in observation group at 3 months and 6 months after surgery were significantly higher than those in control group(P＜0.0 5).Conclusion Compared with Kirschner wire tension band fixation for the treatment of patellar lower pole fractures,the improved riveting double pulley surgery does not require secondary surgery to remove internal fixation,resulting in lower overall medical costs,better postoperative knee joint mobility,and better postoperative knee joint function scores.The improved riveting double pulley surgery has more advantages in treating patellar lower pole fractures compared to traditional Kirschner wire tension band fixation.

Serotonin syndrome (SS), also known as serotonin toxicity, is a rare but life-threatening drug reaction syndrome. This case involves a 17-year-old female patient who developed tremors, fatigue, and tachycardia after taking fluoxetine combined with bupropion and tandospirone for five days. SS was highly suspected, and her symptoms improved following treatment targeted at serotonin syndrome. This case is reported to raise awareness among clinicians about the potential adverse reactions of drug combinations, the importance of early identification of SS symptoms, and precautions when prescribing combined medications to avoid serious consequences.

Objective To investigate the correlation between serum homeodomain interacting protein ki-nase 2(HIPK2),annexin A5(ANXA5)and coronary stenosis and prognosis in patients with acute myocardial infarction(AMI).Methods A total of 277 AMI patients who received interventional treatment in this hospi-tal from January 2021 to July 2023 were selected as the AMI group,and another 140 cases with normal or very mild stenosis in coronary angiography during the same period were selected as the control group.According to the degree of coronary artery stenosis(Gensini score),the AMI patients were divided into mild coronary arter-y stenosis group(86 cases),moderate coronary artery disease group(111 cases)and severe coronary artery disease group(80 cases).According to the prognosis,they were divided into poor prognosis group(80 cases)and good prognosis group(197 cases).Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay was used to detect the serum HIPK2 and ANXA5 levels.Spearman correlation analysis was used to analyze the correlation between serum HIPK2 and ANXA5 levels and Gensini score in patients with AMI.Multivariate unconditional Logistic regres-sion was used to determine the relationship between serum HIPK2 and ANXA5 levels and prognosis of AMI patients.Receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve was used to analyze the predictive efficiency of serum HIPK2 and ANXA5 levels on prognosis of AMI patients.Results Compared with the control group,the ser-um HIPK2 level in the AMI group increased and the ANXA5 level decreased,and the differences were statisti-cally significant(P＜0.05).The serum HIPK2 levels in the mild coronary artery stenosis group,moderate coronary artery stenosis group and severe coronary artery stenosis group increased successively,while the ANXA5 levels decreased successively,and the differences were statistically significant(P＜0.05).Gensini score was positively correlated with serum HIPK2 level and negatively correlated with serum ANXA5 level in AMI patients(P＜0.05).The Gensini score of AMI patients was positively correlated with the serum HIPK2 level(r=0.785,P＜0.05),and negatively correlated with the serum ANXA5 level(r=-0.798,P＜0.05).Compared with the good prognosis group,the serum HIPK2 level in the poor prognosis group increased(P＜0.05),and the ANXA5 level decreased(P＜0.05).After adjusting for confounding factors,high HIPK2 was an independent risk factor for poor prognosis in AMI patients(P＜0.05),and high ANXA5 was an independ-ent protective factor(P＜0.05).The area under the curve of the combined prediction of serum HIPK2 and ANXA5 levels for the prognosis of AMI patients was 0.875,which was greater than 0.778 and 0.784 predic-ted by serum HIPK2 and ANXA5 levels alone(P＜0.05).Conclusion The serum HIPK2 level is increased and the ANXA5 level is decreased in patients with AMI,which is related to the aggravation of coronary steno-sis and the poor prognosis.The combination of serum HIPK2 and ANXA5 levels is more effective in predic-ting the prognosis of patients with AMI.

OBJECTIVE: To assess the mid-term clinical efficacy of the direct anterior approach for window decompression and bone grafting surgery in the treatment of early to mid-stage osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH). METHODS: A retrospective analysis was performed on 40 patients (40 hips) diagnosed with osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH), classified as types L1 and L2 according to the China-Japan Friendship Hospital (CJFH) classification system, and at stagesⅡ, ⅢA, and ⅢB based on the Association Research Circulation Osseous (ARCO) staging system. All patients underwent head-neck junction fenestration decompression and bone grafting via the direct anterior approach between January 2015 and May 2022, with complete follow-up data available for a minimum of three years. The ages of the patients ranged from 35 to 69 years old, with a mean of (49.13±6.14 ) years old;their body mass index (BMI) ranged from 20.02 to 27.94 kg·m^-2, with a mean of (23.65±1.69) kg·m^-1;the duration of the disease ranged from 13 to 36 months, with a mean of (24.55±4.14) months. Preoperative and 3-year postoperative X-ray parameters were collected, including the anterior preserved angle(APA), lateral preserved angle (LPA), and combined preserved angle (CPA). Additionally, hip joint disability and osteoarthritis outcome scores (HOOS) and Harris hip scores (HHS) were recorded. RESULTS: Forty patients were followed up for a period ranging from 36 to 59 months, with a mean duration of (47.18±6.18) months. At 3 years postoperative, none of the patients underwent hip replacement surgery. The APA (73.15±19.35)°, LPA (75.35 ±21.48)°, and CPA (136.25±26.78)° at the 3-year postoperative significantly improved compared to preoperative measurements (61.93±20.54)°, (59.46±22.67)°, and (116.58±32.47)°, with statistical significance (P<0.05). The HOOS (20.37±1.39) and HHS (89.74±3.28) scores at the 3-year postoperative were significantly improved from preoperative scores (12.36±1.58) and (50.27±6.15), respectively, with statistical significance (P<0.05). CONCLUSION The direct anterior approach for window decompression and bone grafting surgery can relieve joint pain, improve joint function, and enhance X-ray preserved angles, effectively preventing femoral head collapse, making it an effective surgical method for treating ONFH classified as L1, L2 according to CJFH and stagesⅡ, ⅢA, ⅢB according to ARCO.

OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to explore the association between body mass index (BMI) and mortality based on the 10-year population-based multicenter prospective study. METHODS: A general population-based multicenter prospective study was conducted at four sites in rural China between 2013 and 2023. Multivariate Cox proportional hazards models and restricted cubic spline analyses were used to assess the association between BMI and mortality. Stratified analyses were performed based on the individual characteristics of the participants. RESULTS: Overall, 19,107 participants with a sum of 163,095 person-years were included and 1,910 participants died. The underweight (< 18.5 kg/m ²) presented an increase in all-cause mortality (adjusted hazards ratio [ aHR] = 2.00, 95% confidence interval [ CI]: 1.66-2.41), while overweight (≥ 24.0 to < 28.0 kg/m ²) and obesity (≥ 28.0 kg/m ²) presented a decrease with an aHR of 0.61 (95% CI: 0.52-0.73) and 0.51 (95% CI: 0.37-0.70), respectively. Overweight ( aHR = 0.76, 95% CI: 0.67-0.86) and mild obesity ( aHR = 0.72, 95% CI: 0.59-0.87) had a positive impact on mortality in people older than 60 years. All-cause mortality decreased rapidly until reaching a BMI of 25.7 kg/m ² ( aHR = 0.95, 95% CI: 0.92-0.98) and increased slightly above that value, indicating a U-shaped association. The beneficial impact of being overweight on mortality was robust in most subgroups and sensitivity analyses. CONCLUSION This study provides additional evidence that overweight and mild obesity may be inversely related to the risk of death in individuals older than 60 years. Therefore, it is essential to consider age differences when formulating health and weight management strategies.

Objective:To explore the correlation between enteral and parenteral nutrition intake in very preterm infants during the first week after birth and the development of bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD).Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on 158 preterm infants born between October 1，2018 and September 30，2021.All of the infants were transferred to the neonatal ward of The Third Hospital of Baogang Group within 24 hours of birth.The infants had a birth weight of less than 1 500 g and a gestational age of less than 32 weeks.These infants were used as study subjects and were divided into a bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) group( n=65) and a non-BPD group ( n=93).The clinical data and nutritional intake were compared between the two groups. Results:The BPD group exhibited longer birth weight recovery and mechanical ventilation times than the non-BPD group.The BPD group also had higher rates of extrauterine growth restriction,feeding intolerance,haemodynamically significant patent ductus arteriosus and bile acid accumulation associated with parenteral nutrition than the non-BPD group ( P<0.05).The BPD group received a higher volume of parenteral nutrition in the first week after birth than the non-BPD group.However,the caloric intake per unit of parenteral nutrition,the caloric-to-nitrogen ratio,and the total intake of glucose,amino acids,and lipid emulsions were all lower in the BPD group than in the non-BPD group during the first week postnatally ( P<0.05).The breastfeeding rate,enteral caloric intake,protein-to-energy ratio,and total caloric intake were all lower in the BPD group than in the non-BPD group.It took longer for the BPD group to achieve full enteral nutrition than the non-BPD group( P<0.05). Conclusion:The early attainment of total enteral nutrition,the increased energy density of parenteral nutrition,unit parenteral nutritional calories,and an emphasis on protein-energy ratio may be measures to reduce the incidence of BPD.
