OBJECTIVE To investigate the efficacy and safety of ropivacaine combined with oxycodone for the analgesia of iliac fascia nerve block in patients undergoing hip replacement. METHODS Sixty-six patients who underwent hip replacement at the Central Hospital of Enshi Tujia and Miao Autonomous Prefecture from October 2023 to April 2024 were selected and randomly divided into observation group and control group， with 33 cases in each group. Before induction of anesthesia， ultrasound-guided iliac fascial nerve block was performed. Patients in the observation group were treated with 0.33% ropivacaine+0.1 mg/kg oxycodone injection mixture 30 mL， and patients in the control group were treated with 0.33% ropivacaine injection 30 mL. The time of first postoperative rescue analgesia， 24 h postoperative analgesic drug consumption， sensory block and motor block effective and maintenance time， satisfaction degree， numerical rating scale （NRS） pain score， Ramsay sedation score， muscle strength score， heart rate （HR）， mean arterial pressure （MAP）， oxygen saturation（SpO2）， sleep score， anxiety score， and the occurrence of adverse reactions in the two groups were all recorded. RESULTS Compared with the control group， the first rescue analgesia time after operation was significantly prolonged in the observation group， and 24 h postoperative analgesic drug consumption after operation decreased； the effective time of sensory block was significantly shortened， and the maintenance time of sensory block was significantly prolonged， and the satisfaction score was higher； the NRS pain score after iliac fascia nerve block was lower， HR and MAP were lower， and the anxiety score and sleep score 24 and 48 h after operation were lower （P＜0.05）. In terms of safety， patients in both groups had adverse reactions after operation， such as hypertension， nausea， vomiting， and dizziness， but there was no significant difference in the incidence of adverse reactions between the two groups （P＞0.05）. CONCLUSIONS Oxycodone combined with ropivacaine shows good efficacy and safety for iliac fascial nerve block analgesia in patients undergoing hip replacement， can significantly prolong the analgesic time of ropivacaine， reduce postoperative analgesic drug consumption， improve the sleep quality of patients， and promote the rapid recovery of patients.

Background The Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region is a vast area with a wide array of ecological environments, resulting in considerable regional variations in air pollution characteristics. Current research is limited by a scarcity of systematic, region-wide studies and risk assessments. Objective To assess the health risks associated with inhalation exposure to nine heavy metal and metalloid elements in atmospheric fine particulate matter (PM_2.5) for the population of the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region. Methods From the 10th to the 16th of each month throughout 2023, atmospheric PM_2.5 samples were collected at designated monitoring sites in 12 leagues (cities) across the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region to analyze the characteristics and trends in concentration. The health risk assessment model developed by the United States Environmental Protection Agency was employed to evaluate both the non-carcinogenic and carcinogenic risks associated with the heavy metal elements beryllium (Be), cadmium (Cd), chromium (Cr), hydrargyrum (Hg), plumbum (Pb), manganese (Mn), and nickel (Ni) and the metalloid elements stibium (Sb) and arsenic (As). Results In 2023, a total of 1206 valid PM_2.5 samples were analyzed from the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region. The annual average PM_2.5 concentrations in Inner Mongolia, as well as in the cities of Ordos, Wuhai, and the Alxa League, all exceeded the national limit of 35 μg·m⁻³. The PM_2.5 concentrations across the leagues (cities) exhibited a clear seasonal variation, peaking in winter, followed by spring, and reaching a minimum in summer and autumn. The median PM_2.5 concentration in Ordos throughout the year was higher than that in the other leagues (cities) of the region. Concerning health risks, the non-carcinogenic risks associated with the 9 elements detected in each league (city) were all below 1, indicating acceptable levels. However, the non-carcinogenic risk values for Mn, Cr, and As were relatively high; specifically, Ordos City displayed the highest non-carcinogenic risk values for Mn (7.74×10⁻¹) and Cr (2.97×10⁻²), while Chifeng City recorded the highest value for As (2.34×10⁻³). The carcinogenic risk values for As, Cd, Cr, and Ni fell within the range of 1×10⁻⁹ to 1×10⁻⁵, representing an acceptable level. The health risks varied with age, and the elderly residents faced the highest non-carcinogenic and carcinogenic health risks. Conclusion While the carcinogenic and non-carcinogenic risks from heavy metals and metalloids within atmospheric PM_2.5 in the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region are generally within acceptable limits, the potential risks that Mn, As, and Cr pose to the health of elderly people warrants particular attention, and Ordos and Chifeng cities exhibit notably higher health risks among other areas. It is recommended that regular, long-term monitoring be conducted, taking into account the specific conditions at monitoring sites across each league (city), and that targeted air quality management strategies be implemented to protect public health.

High-voltage pulsed electric field(HV-PEF)ablation technology has demonstrated promising applications in the clinical treatment of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease(COPD).However,its use has been limited to exploratory applications in a small number of cases,and the underlying mechanisms remain largely undefined.To facilitate broader clinical implementation,comprehensive molecular mechanism studies via extensive animal experimentation are essential.Rats,due to their ease of modeling COPD and the availability of comprehensive molecular reagents,serve as an optimal model for such studies.Consequently,the development of electrodes specifically designed for HV-PEF respiratory ablation in SD rats is of significant importance.In this study,we meticulously examined the anatomical structure of rat airways and investigated various equipment parameters,including material composition,rigidity,diameter,electrode ring dimensions,spacing between positive and negative poles,insulation coating for the catheters,welding techniques between the guidewire and electrode ring,and the design of vent holes in the catheter.Based on these considerations,we fabricated PVC ablation electrode catheters with integrated ventilation functionality.Subsequently,we employed finite element simulation to estimate the field strengths that could be applied by these electrodes.The simulation results were then validated in normal rats to assess the electrical safety and efficacy of the electrodes.These findings laid the groundwork for further investigation into the mechanisms of HV-PEF treatment for COPD.

Purpose To investigate the clinicopathological features,immunophenotype,diagnosis and differential diagnosis of superficial CD34-positive fibroblast tumor.Methods Retro-spective analysis was performed in 6 cases of superficial CD34 positive fibroblastic tumors.Routine HE staining was performed under light microscopy,immunohistochemical Eli Vision staining was performed,and FISH was used to detect the PRDM10 gene.Literature review was also conducted.Results Among the 6 SCPFT patients,there were 2 males and 4 females.Four masses were located subcutaneous in the lower limbs,one in the lower abdomen,and one in the vulva.Microscopically,the tumor cells were arranged in bundles or solid patches,with obvious pleomor-phism or deformity of the nucleus and nucleoli.Pseudoinclusion bodies were visible in the nucleus,and the cytoplasm was eosin-ophilic.Some areas of the cells were epithelioid,with no mitotic figures observed.A small amount of inflammatory cells were scattered in the stroma.Immunophenotypically,diffuse and strong expression of CD34 and INI1 was observed in the tumor cells,some cells expressed CK(AE1/AE3),but did not ex-press SMA,CD68,desmin,S-100,CD31,ERG.Ki67 had a value-added index below 3％.FISH detection of PRDM10 gene was performed on 4 cases of SCPFT,and 3 cases were positive.Conclusion Superficial CD34-positive fibroblast tumor is a newly reported soft tissue tumor with borderline or low-grade ma-lignant biological behavior.Diagnosis needs to be differentiated from multiple CD34 positive soft tissue tumors to avoid over diag-nosis and over treatment.

Objective:To investigate the quality of life of lymphoma patients receiving different treatment methods under unaccompanied nursing care mode.Methods:A cross sectional study was conducted. A total of 374 lymphoma patients who received chemotherapy, hematopoietic stem cell transplantation, chimeric antigen receptor T (CAR-T) cell therapy, or other targeted immunotherapy under unaccompanied nursing care mode in the First Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University from January 2023 to December 2023 were selected. The basic information of patients was collected through a questionnaire, and the Cancer Rehabilitation Evaluation System-Short Form (CARES-SF) was used to score the quality of life of patients from physiological, psychosocial, the relationship with healthcare professionals, marital relations, sexual function, and the overall health aspects. The higher score indicated the worse quality of life. The differences in quality of life among patients stratified by the different treatment methods and high-intensity treatment (CAR-T cell therapy or transplantation) and low-intensity treatment (other treatment methods) under unaccompanied care mode were compared.Results:Among the 374 patients, 62 received autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation, 13 received allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation, and 36 received CAR-T cell therapy. There were no statistically significant differences in the dimensions of CARES-SF and the overall health aspects scores between the transplantation treatment group and the non-transplantation treatment group (all P > 0.05). For non-transplant patients, there were no statistically significant differences in the dimensions of CARES-SF and overall health aspects scores between the CAR-T cell treatment group and the non-CAR-T cell treatment group (all P > 0.05); for transplant patients, the physiological dimension score [ M ( IQR)] of CARES-SF in the allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation group was higher than that in the autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation group [16 points (9 points) vs. 8 points (9 points)], and the difference was statistically significant ( Z = -2.30, P = 0.021), but there were no statistically significant differences in the scores of other dimensions and overall health aspects (all P > 0.05). There were no statistically significant differences in the dimensions of CARES-SF and overall health aspects scores in the high-intensity treatment group and the low-intensity treatment group (all P > 0.05). Conclusions:There is no significant difference in the quality of life of lymphoma patients receiving different treatment methods under the unaccompanied care mode, while lymphoma patients receiving high-intensity treatment and low-intensity treatment have similar life quality. Lymphoma patients receiving high-intensity treatment may benefit more from the unaccompanied care mode.

Objective To investigate the clinical and cytogenetic characteristics of acute myeloid leukemia(AML)patients with NRAS mutations.Methods Newly diagnosed AML patients in our hospital from January 2020 to August 2022 were selected,and their clinical data were retrospectively analyzed.According to NRAS mutations,the patients were divided into NRAS mutation group and NRAS wild group.The clinical characteristics and cytogenetic differences were compared between the two groups.Results A total of 162 newly diagnosed AML patients were included in this study.There were 28 in NRAS mutation group and 134 in NRAS wild group.The peripheral white blood cell count of NRAS mutation group was significantly higher than that of NRAS wild type group(53.10×109/L vs 24.78×109/L,P<0.05).There were no significant differences in the hemoglobin level,platelet count or bone marrow blast cell count between the two groups(P>0.05).The coexisting gene mutation occurred in 25 patients(89.3%,25/28)in NRAS mutation group.The most common coexisting gene mutation was KRAS,with a mutation rate of 28.6%.Compared with NRAS wild group,NRAS mutation group was more likely to obtain KRAS mutations(P<0.05).There was no significant difference in other coexisting mutated genes between the two groups(P>0.05).The proportion of poor prognosis karyotype in the NRAS mutation group was 23.1%,which was significantly higher than that in NRAS wild group(P<0.05).The proportions of favorable and intermediate prognosis karyotypes in NRAS mutation group were 7.7%and 69.2%,respectively,which were not significantly different from those in NRAS wild group(P>0.05).Conclusion The incidence of NRAS mutation is 17.3%in AML patients in this study.Patients with NRAS mutation are more likely to have KRAS mutation and have a higher proportion of poor prognosis karyotype.

With a deepened understanding of the pathophysiology and pathogenesis of thoracic malignancies, the treatment has been transited from traditional treatment on the basis of surgery, radiotherapy, and chemotherapy to individualized and precise targeted therapy and immunotherapy. As an antitumor immunotherapy, chimeric antigen receptor gene-modified T (CAR-T) cells have been approved by the FDA for the treatment of hematological malignancies in five CAR-T products. They have also achieved good therapeutic effects in solid tumors. However, significant challenges remain in the clinical application of CAR-T cell immunotherapy in thoracic malignancies. In this review, the latest research progress of CAR-T cell immunotherapy in the treatment of thoracic malignancies were summarized, including the basic characteristics of CAR-T cells, the popular target antigens, and the existing problems and challenges, to provide new ideas and strategies for clinical immunotherapy of thoracic malignancies.

Objective:To analyze the changing trend of intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) incidence among residents with different characteristics during 9 years of comprehensive hypertension prevention and control (hypertension prevention and control) in Tengzhou from 2013 to 2021.Methods:From January 1, 2013 to December 31, 2021, the new ICH cases collected by the Center for Disease Control and Prevention in Tengzhou City were analyzed to calculate the incidence of ICH, and the trend of its distribution was analyzed among residents with different ages, sexes, and between urban and rural areas. The registered population information came from Tengzhou Public Security Bureau. Age and sex standardized incidence was calculated based on the 7th National Population Census in 2020. The Cochran-Armitage test was used to analyze the time and age trends of the incidence.Results:The overall ICH crude and standardized incidence in Tengzhou City decreased from 97.30/100 000 to 52.13/100 000 ( Z=-9.93, P<0.001) and 119.30/100 000 to 50.69/100 000 ( Z=-15.40, P<0.001) from 2013 to 2021, and both elevated to form a single peak in 2020, with 22.58% ( χ 2=24.02, P<0.001) and 18.09% ( χ 2=17.08, P<0.001) higher than in 2019, respectively. The trends in male and female incidence over the same period were similar to the overall trends, and the incidence was higher in males than in females in all years. The incidence of ICH increased with age in all years. The difference of increase in male incidence rate in 2020 was statistically significant in three age groups ≥45 years compared with 2019 (36.29%, 23.57% and 16.18%, respectively, χ 2=6.73, 4.65, 4.00, P<0.001). The incidence of ICH decreased by 70.07% and 36.23% ( Z=18.44, 5.22, P<0.001) in urban and rural areas respectively from 2013 to 2021, whereas increased by 34.15% ( χ 2=10.88, P<0.01) and 22.08% ( χ 2=18.63, P<0.001) in 2020 compared with 2019 separately. Conclusions:The incidence of ICH in Tengzhou from 2013 to 2021 showed a significant downward trend, with the decrease in the incidence of ICH in women exceeding that in men. The decrease in the incidence of ICH in urban areas exceeded that in rural areas, and male morbidity seemingly had a younger trend.
