Medical humanities consistently run through the entire process of medical development and educational reform. However， with the increasingly prominent dominance of evidence-based medicine in clinical practice， the medical humanities have gradually been weakened in both medical education and clinical practice. Narrative medicine， through telling and listening to patients’ stories， enhances healthcare professionals’ empathy， fosters doctor–patient communication， and facilitates a return to the humanistic essence of medical education and clinical practice. By sorting out and reviewing related literature and developmental trends both at home and abroad， this paper pointed out the existing structural problem of an imbalance between technological priority and humanistic care in medical education， focusing on how to achieve an effective integration of medical humanities and narrative medicine in medical education. This paper also systematically analyzed the significance of both medical humanities and narrative medicine in the medical education system and proposed promoting the deep embedding of narrative medicine in medical education from three entry points， namely， curriculum integration， interdisciplinary collaboration， and the construction of teaching evaluation systems. The aim was to provide theoretical support and practical experience for medical education reform， foster the coordinated development of professional competence and humanistic spirit among medical talents， and truly achieve the goal of cultivating well-rounded medical talents.

Objective To observe the origin and course of the obturator artery(OA),so as to provide anatomical reference for reducing hemorrhage during pelvic surgery and pubic fracture fixation.Methods A total of 65 human hemi-pelvises specimens with intact structure were dissected to observe the origin,course and other variations of OA.Measure the length of the inner section of OA basin and the outer diameter at the origin,etc.Results OA originated from the internal iliac artery in 57 cases(87.7%),including 3 cases(4.6%)of the superior gluteal artery,5 cases(7.7%)of the inferior gluteal artery,3 cases(4.6%)of the external iliac artery and 5 cases(7.7%)of the inferior epigastric artery.OA participated in the formation of the arterial trunk in 3 cases(4.6%).The length of the pelvic segment of the OA in male and female was(50.87±15.41)mm and(51.71±14.19)mm,respectively,with no statistically significant difference between them(P>0.05).The outer diameters at the origin of the OA in male and female were(2.79±1.05)mm and(2.35±0.86)mm,and there was no statistically significant difference between them(P>0.05).Conclusion OA mainly originated from the anterior trunk of the internal iliac artery,with a few OA originated from the branches of the posterior trunk or the inferior epigastric artery,or participated in the formation of the arterial trunk.In pelvic surgery involving OA area,attention should be paid to the length of its pelvic segment and the outer diameter at the origin of OA,so as to better locate and protect blood vessels during surgery.

Objective:To investigate the detection status of serological markers for hepatitis B virus (HBV) among Tibetan college students and their relationship with HBV- deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) load.Methods:A cross-sectional study was carried out to retrospectively analyze data from 1 514 Tibetan college students who visited the Affiliated Hospital of Xizang Minzu University for consultations or health examinations between June 1, 2021 and June 1, 2022. The prevalence of HBV infection among these students was analyzed, the primary epidemiological patterns of HBV markers were identified, and their relationship with HBV-DNA load was determined.Results:The positive rate of hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) among the 1 514 Tibetan college students was 6.7% (101/1 514), while the positive rate for Hepatitis B surface antibody (HBsAb) was 42.2% (639/1 514). The primary serological pattern of HBV infection consisted of positive results for HBsAg, HBeAg, and HBcAb, which accounted for 48.5% of cases. This pattern showed significantly higher rates of HBV-DNA positivity and elevated viral load compared with other serological patterns ( χ2 = 8.70, P < 0.05). Conclusions:The HBV infection rate among Tibetan college students is 6.7%. The primary infection pattern is characterized by positive tests for HBsAg, HBeAg, and HBcAb, with an HBV-DNA positivity rate as high as 87.0% and elevated viral loads.

AIM To investigate the protective effects of kaempferide on hyperuricemic nephropathy(HN)in mice.METHODS Sixty Kunming mice were randomly divided into the control group,the model group,the allopurinol group(5 mg/kg),the kaempferol group(50 mg/kg),and the low-dose and high-dose kaempferide groups(25,50 mg/kg).HN mouse models were established by administering potassium oxyzinate(300 mg/kg)and hypoxanthine(500 mg/kg)in combination for 21 days,concurrently with the test drug.Following treatment administration,serum uric acid(SUA),serum creatinine(SCr),24-hour urinary protein(24 h UTP),and hepatic xanthine oxidase(XOD)levels were measured.Renal tissue pathology was assessed using HE staining and Masson staining.Apoptosis in renal tissue was evaluated via TUNEL staining.The expressions of NLRP3 inflammasome and apoptosis-associated proteins in renal tissues were analyzed by immunohistochemistry and Western blot.RESULTS Compared to the control group,the model group demonstrated elevated levels of SUA,SCr,24 h UTP,and hepatic XOD activity(P＜0.01);marked renal damage,and increased area of renal interstitial fibrosis and apoptosis rate(P＜0.01);and increased protein expressions of NLRP3,ASC,Caspase-1,cleaved-Caspase-1,pro-IL-1β,IL-1β,Caspase-3 and cleaved-Caspase-3 in renal tissue(P＜0.05,P＜0.01).Compared to the model group,the groups treated with allopurinol,kaempferol,or kaempferid showed reduced levels of SUA,SCr,24 h UTP,and hepatic XOD activity(P＜0.05,P＜0.01);improved renal pathological injury with reduced renal interstitial fibrosis area and apoptosis rate of renal tissue(P＜0.01);and downregulated protein expressions ofNLRP3,ASC,Caspase-1,cleaved-Caspase-1,pro-IL-1β,IL-1β,Caspase-3 and cleaved-Caspase-3 in renal tissue as well(P＜0.05,P＜0.01).CONCLUSION Kaempferide improves renal function while attenuating inflammation,fibrosis,and apoptosis in the kidneys of HN mice.This nephroprotective effect may stem from its dual action in inhibiting hepatic XOD to reduce uric acid synthesis and blocking NLRP3 inflammasome activation.

Objective To observe the ultrasonic manifestations of local recurrence(LR)of breast cancer after surgery.Methods Totally 82 female breast cancer patients with local hypoechoic in surgical area who underwent ultrasound follow-up were enrolled and divided into LR group(n=18)and non LR group(n=64)according to the local hypoechoic was LR or not.Clinical data and ultrasonic manifestations of primary lesion before operation and postoperative local hypoechoic were observed and compared between groups.Results Significant differences of surgical resection type,molecular subtype,status of smooth muscle actin,Calponin status,Ki-67 status,clinical staging,the maximum diameter and posterior echo of the primary lesion,as well as of involved tissue layer,location,long axis parallel to the skin or not,edge,internal echo,posterior echo,skin change and Adler blood flow grading of local hypoechoic in resection area were found between groups(all P＜0.05).Conclusion Ultrasonic manifestations of LR of breast cancer after surgery had certain characteristics.
