OBJECTIVE To evaluate the effictiveness and safety of recombinant human endostatin combined with afatinib and teggio in the treatment of advanced lung squamous cell carcinoma. METHODS A total of 25 patients with driver-negative advanced lung squamous cell carcinoma were included in this single-arm prospective study, and the enrolled patients were treated with recombinant human endostatin combined with afatinib and teggio as scheduled. Progression-free survival(PFS), overall survival(OS), disease control rate(DCR), objective response rate(ORR), and adverse reactions(AR) were observed and analyzed. RESULTS The 25 enrolled patients received at least 2 cycles of second-line treatment, and were followed up as of March 31, 2023. Among them, 4 patients had partial remission, 17 patients had stable disease, and 4 patients experienced progressive disease. The ORR confirmed by the researchers was 16%(95%CI, 4.5%−36.1%), DCR was 84%(95%CI, 63.9%−95.5%), and median PFS was 5.3 months(95%CI, 3.5−6.9 months). The median OS had not yet been achieved. The entire group of patients had good treatment tolerance, and the most common level Ⅲ or Ⅳ adverse events related to treatment were leukopenia(20%) and rash(12%), with no reported treatment-related deaths. CONCLUSION Recombinant human endostatin combined with afatinib and teggio in the second line treatment of advanced lung squamous cell carcinoma can prolong the progression free survival period of patients and is relatively safe, which is worth further exploration and promotion.

Objective To investigate the application value of the MHSeqTyper47 kit in kinship identification.Methods Multiplexed amplification and library preparation were performed for DNA samples from 113 related individuals by using the MHSeqTyper47 kit.The libraries were sequenced on a MiSeq FGx sequencer,and the data were analyzed using MHTyper for microhaplotype genotyping.The kinship indexes were calculated to evaluate the application efficiency of this kit in kinship identification and compared with those of the GlobalFilerTM kit.Results For the MHSeqTyper47 kit,the CPI values in trio identification were 1.43× 1011～6.15×1018.The CPI values in duo identification were 1.02× 105～1.53× 1013.The CFSI values in full sibling identification were 7.73×101～2.59×1016.Trios,duos and full siblings could be completely distinguished from unrelated pairs.The combined efficiency of these two kits in 2nd-degree kinship identification was 0.466 2.Conclusion The application value of MHSeqTyper47 kit is relatively higher in the identification of lst-degree kinships.If jointly used with the GlobalFilerrM kit,2nd-degree kinship identification could be achieved in some cases.

Objectives:This study aims to explore the clinical significance of lateral pelvic sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB) using indocyanine green (ICG) fluorescence navigation in laparoscopic lateral pelvic lymph node dissection (LLND) and evaluate the accuracy and feasibility of this technique to predict the status of lateral pelvic lymph nodes (LPLNs).Methods:The clinical and pathological characteristics, surgical outcomes, lymph node findings and perioperative complications of 16 rectal cancer patients who underwent SLNB using ICG fluorescence navigation in laparoscopic LLND in the Cancer Hospital, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences and Peking Union Medical College during April 2017 and October 2022 were retrospectively collected and analyzed. The patients did not receive preoperative neoadjuvant radiotherapy and presented with LPLNs but without LPLN enlargement (MRI showed the maximum short axes of the LPLNs were ≥5 mm and <10 mm at first visit).Results:All 16 patients were successfully performed SLNB using ICG fluorescence navigation in laparoscopic LLND. Three patients underwent bilateral LLND and 13 patients underwent unilateral LLND. The lateral pelvic sentinel lymph nodes (SLNs) were clearly fluorescent before dissection in 14 patients and the detection rate of SLNs for these patients was 87.5%. Lateral pelvic SLN metastasis was diagnosed in 2 patients and negative results were found in 12 patients by frozen pathological examinations. Among the 14 patients in whom lateral pelvic SLNs were detected, the dissected lateral pelvic non-SLNs were all negative. All dissected LPLNs were negative in two patients without fluorescent lateral pelvic SLNs. The specificity, sensitivity, negative predictive value, and accuracy was 85.7%, 100%, 100%, and 100%, respectively.Conclusions:This study indicates that lateral pelvic SLNB using ICG fluorescence navigation shows promise as a safe and feasible procedure with good accuracy. This technique may replace preventive LLND for locally advanced lower rectal cancer.

Primary intrahepatic stone （PIS）is one of the intractable diseases in hepatobiliary surgery and an important cause of death from benign biliary tract diseases, and it has a high prevalence in the Yangtze River basin and southeastern coastal areas of China. At present, the mechanism of PIS occurrence has not been fully elucidated, but the role of biliary flora in the formation of PIS has been recognized by more and more studies. This article reviews the research progress of biliary flora in the formation of PIS with a view to strengthening the clinical understanding of mechanism of PIS, increasing the attention to the detection of biliary flora, and providing a reference for the prevention and treatment of PIS and the improvement of prognosis.

In colorectal cancer surgery, loop ileostomy is sometimes necessary to prevent anastomotic leakage. Although ileostomy reversal is relatively simple, postoperative complication is inevitable. In recent years, laparoscopic surgery has been gradually applied in ileostomy reversal due to its small trauma, fast recovery, and low complications, exhibiting satisfactory short-term outcomes. This review analyzes the application of the laparoscopic technique in ileostomy surgery and explores the potential of total laparoscopic surgery, aiming to provide a new perspective for the clinical application of laparoscopic ileostomy reversal.

Objective:To evaluate the long-term impact of three different outdoor activity intervention strategies on the prevalence of myopia among school-aged children in China.Methods:Cross-sectional data from the Refractive Error Study in Children (RESC) on the baseline prevalence of myopia and 10-year longitudinal data from the Guangzhou Twin Eye Study (GTES) on the baseline incidence of myopia were utilized.The effect size of outdoor activity intervention was derived from longitudinal data of the Guangzhou Outdoor Activity Longitudinal Study (GOALS). Three intervention strategies were proposed: intervention for children in grades 1 to 6 (Strategy A), intervention for children in grades 1 to 3 (Strategy B), and intervention for children from the last year of kindergarten to grade 3 (Strategy C). Outdoor activity interventions across all strategies included an extra 40 minutes of daily outdoor activity time.Simulated analyses assumed that the prevalence of myopia would decrease with declining incidence and increasing school grade, and the degree of myopia among highly myopic children would decrease with delayed myopia onset.This study was approved by the Ethics Committee of Zhongshan Ophthalmic Center (No.2006-5).Results:With prolonged intervention time, the overall prevalence of myopia in children showed a significant declining trend.After 5 years of implementation, Strategy A resulted in a decrease in myopia prevalence from 34.67% to 25.71%, which decreased to 24.89% after 10 years, with an average annual reduction of 0.98%.Strategies B and C had similar long-term effects, with myopia prevalence after 10 years being 26.00% and 26.20% respectively, with an average annual reductions of 0.87% and 0.85%.Strategy A yielded the greatest reduction in myopia severity, with a decrease of -5.94 D after 5 years and -5.88 D after 10 years in the initial 15-year-old highly myopic individuals.Strategy B followed with -6.08 D and -6.02 D after 5 and 10 years, respectively.Conclusions:Implementing intensified outdoor activity intervention among children in grades 1 to 6 may be the recommended strategy to reduce the overall prevalence of myopia in regions with high rates of myopia among school-aged children.

Objective:To explore the role of constructivism teaching theory combined with problem-based learning (PBL) teaching mode in the training of new nurses in the department of gastroenterology.Methods:A total of 27 newly recruited nurses in the Department of Gastroenterology in West China Hospital of Sichuan University from August 2018 to August 2019 were selected as the control group, and traditional teaching was adopted. In addition, 24 newly recruited nurses from September 2019 to September 2020 were selected as the research group, using constructivism teaching theory combined with PBL teaching mode. After the training, the teaching effect was compared between the two groups through the assessment results and the training method scores. SPSS 19.0 was used for t test. Results:The research group's newly recruited nurses' theoretical evaluation scores [(95.08±5.61) vs. (91.63±5.27)] and practical skills operation evaluation scores [(94.30±7.22) vs. (87.13±6.84)] were both higher than those of the control group, and the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.05). Compared with the control group, the newly recruited nurses of the research group believed that the combination of constructivism teaching theory and PBL teaching could improve clinical thinking ability, analysis and problem-solving ability, and the degree of integration of theory and practice, mobilize the enthusiasm of autonomous learning, enhance autonomous learning ability, and improve communication ability, cultivate teamwork ability, stimulate interest in learning, improve work confidence and training satisfaction, with statistical significance ( P<0.05). Conclusion:The combination of constructivism teaching theory and PBL teaching mode is beneficial to the training of newly recruited nurses in the department of gastroenterology to independently construct a theoretical framework of knowledge, improve comprehensive ability, and make a useful exploration for the training of newly recruited nurses.
