Objective:To analyze the influencing factors of postoperative pulmonary embolism (PE) in patients undergoing hepatectomy.Methods:Clinical data of 171 patients undergoing hepatectomy at the Department of Hepatobiliary and Pancreatic Surgery, the Second Affiliated Hospital of Kunming Medical University from January 2018 to November 2024 were retrospectively analyzed, including 95 males and 76 females, aged (52.0±12.6) years. The pathology of patients included hepatolithiasis, hepatic hemangioma, liver abscess, focal nodular hyperplasia of liver, hepatocellular carcinoma, intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma, etc. According to whether PE occurred after hepatectomy, patients were divided into PE group ( n=64) and control group ( n=107). Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analysis were used to analyze the influencing factors of PE after hepatectomy. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was used to analyze the effect of each index on predicting PE after hepatectomy. Results:Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that red blood cell volume distribution width ( OR=1.399, 95% CI: 1.223-1.601) and systemic inflammation response index (SIRI) on postoperative day (POD) 3 ( OR=1.317, 95% CI: 1.124-1.544) and D-dimer on POD1 ( OR=1.208, 95% CI: 1.026-1.421) were associated with a higher risk of PE after hepatectomy (all P<0.05). The area under the ROC curve of SIRI on POD3, D-dimer on POD1, and red blood cell volume distribution width on POD3 on predicting PE after hepatectomy was 0.763 (95% CI: 0.689-0.838), 0.744 (95% CI: 0.668-0.820) and 0.796 (95% CI: 0.727-0.864), respectively. Conclusion:Red blood cell volume distribution width on POD3, SIRI on POD3 and D-dimer on POD1 are the risk factors of PE after hepatectomy. These three indicators have certain predictive value for PE after hepatectomy.

Objective:To compare the efficacy of body posture combined with pharmacotherapy and pharmacotherapy alone in the treatment of chronic subdural hematoma(CSDH).Methods:Firstly, retrospective case series study was conducted. Thirty cases of CSDH that had received body posture combined with pharmacotherapy at Department of Neurosurgery, Huashan Hospital Affiliated to Fudan University from December 2016 to October 2020 were studied retrospectively. Twenty-seven patients were male, and 3 patients were female. The age of patients ( M(IQR)) was 66(16) years (range:28 to 84). Nineteen patients had unilateral hematoma, and 11 patients had bilateral hematoma. All patients received pharmacotherapy and body posture therapy that was to raise their lower limbs 20 to 30 cm with leg lift pad and get abdominal compressed with customized abdominal belt in supine position. Patients were required to maintain the body posture as much as possible, with the maximum to 16 to 18 hours per day. Patients with unilateral hematoma should tilt the head to the affected side and avoid tilting it to the opposite side. For patients with bilateral hematoma, there was no need for head lateralization. Patient were treated with oral dexamethasone and atorvastatin simultaneously. The preliminary efficacy of body posture combined with pharmacotherapy was determined by hematoma improvement rate which was analyzed by Clopper-Pearson method. Then, the multi-center, prospective, randomized controlled trial had carried out in 9 medical centers from August 2020 to November 2021. The stratified block randomization method was adopted. Patients were randomized in a ratio of 1∶1 to either receive pharmacotherapy alone(the control group) or body posture combined with pharmacotherapy(the experiment group) for 3 months and followed up for 6 months. Effective treatment was defined as complete absorption of hematoma, or the hematoma volume decreased by more than 10 ml and Markwalder grading scale score had improved by more than 1 point compared to the baseline. The efficacy rate and surgery conversion rate at 3 months and recurrence at 6 months were observed. Comparison between groups was performed with paired sample t test, Mann-Whitney U test, χ2 test, corrected χ2 test, or Fisher exact probability method. Logistic regression was used to compare the effective rate and operation rate between the two groups. Results:In the respective study, 30 patients completed follow-up 13 to 353 days after treatment. At the last follow-up, the incidence of almost complete absorption or significantly absorption of hematoma (hematoma volume was significantly reduced accompanied by symptom improvement) was 93.3%. The 95% CI for the incidence that analyzed by the Clopper-Pearson method was 77.9% to 99.2%. One hundred and six patients were enrolled in the multicenter study. Fifty-five patients underwent body posture combined with pharmacotherapy. The age was 74(17) years (range:26 to 92). Thirty-nine patients were males and 16 were females. Fifty-one patients underwent pharmacotherapy alone. The age was 69(12) years (range:48 to 84). Thirty-seven patients were males and 14 were females. The length of body posture recorded in diary card was (15.7±2.3) hours(range:7.6 to 19.3 hours). The efficacy rate in the body posture combined with pharmacotherapy group and pharmacotherapy alone group were 83.6% (46/55) and 56.9% (29/51), respectively at 3 months. The result of the logistic regression analysis showed that the efficacy of body posture combined with pharmacotherapy group was better than that of pharmacotherapy alone group ( OR=3.88,95% CI:1.57 to 9.58, P=0.003). Surgery rate in the body posture combined with pharmacotherapy group and pharmacotherapy alone group were 5.5% (3/55) and 21.6% (11/51) respectively. The result of Logistic regression showed that the pharmacotherapy alone group was more likely to be converted to surgery ( OR=0.21,95% CI:0.05 to 0.80, P=0.023). At the 6 months, no recurrence of cases was found in the body posture combined with pharmacotherapy group. However, the recurrence rate of pharmacotherapy alone group was 6.3% (3/48), there was no significant difference between the two groups ( P>0.05). Conclusion:The effect of body posture combined with pharmacotherapy for chronic subdural hematoma is better than that of pharmacotherapy alone.

BACKGROUND:Long non-coding RNA(LncRNA)plays an important role in nervous system development and neurological diseases.Previous studies by the research team have demonstrated that human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells overexpressing erythropoietin(EPO-MSCs)under ischemic and hypoxic conditions have better neuroprotective functions and significantly activate the expression of LncRNA XIST.Research suggests that XIST is related to the pathogenesis of hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy,but the role and mechanism of its regulation by EPO-MSCs in protecting ischemic-hypoxic neurons remain unclear.OBJECTIVE:To explore the new mechanism by which LncRNA XIST,in response to EPO-MSC signaling,affects the apoptosis of ischemic-hypoxic SH-SY5Y cells.METHODS:(1)SH-SY5Y cell lines with knockdown of LncRNA XIST(sh-XIST)and negative control(NC-XIST)were constructed through lentiviral transfection.Oxygen-glucose deprivation was used to induce ischemic-hypoxic injury in the cells.Transwell chambers were used to create a non-contact co-culture system with EPO-MSCs,sh-XIST,and NC-XIST ischemic-hypoxic SH-SY5Y cells.Cell proliferation ability was detected using the CCK-8 assay.Cell migration ability was assessed using the scratch assay,and cell apoptosis was measured by flow cytometry.(2)RNA-seq bioinformatics analysis was performed to screen for differentially expressed genes and pathways between sh-XIST and NC-XIST cell lines.Dual-luciferase experiments were used to verify the relationship between miR-124-3p and the target genes XIST and GRIN1.qRT-PCR was conducted to validate the expression levels of downstream miR-124-3p and GRIN1 genes.(3)miR-124-3p inhibitors and mimics were added to verify phenotypic changes in SH-SY5Y cells after ischemic-hypoxic injury and co-culture with EPO-MSCs.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)Compared with the NC-XIST group,SH-SY5Y cells in the sh-XIST group showed reduced proliferation and migration abilities and increased apoptosis after ischemic-hypoxic injury and co-culture with EPO-MSCs.(2)Dual-luciferase experiments showed that miR-124-3p interacted with the target gene XIST.SH-SY5Y cells transfected with miR-124-3p mimics and co-cultured with EPO-MSCs showed decreased apoptosis after ischemic-hypoxic injury,while SH-SY5Y cells transfected with miR-124-3p inhibitors showed increased apoptosis after co-culture with EPO-MSCs.(3)Transcriptomic sequencing and bioinformatics analysis of sh-XIST revealed significant downregulation of the neuroactive ligand-receptor pathway and the key receptor gene GRIN1 for central nervous system development.(4)Dual-luciferase experiments showed that miR-124-3p interacted with GRIN1.GRIN1 expression was significantly downregulated in the sh-XIST group after ischemic-hypoxic injury compared with the NC-XIST group.These findings indicate that LncRNA XIST promotes GRIN1 expression by upregulating miR-124-3p,thereby reducing cell apoptosis after ischemic-hypoxic injury and co-culture with EPO-MSCs and enhancing proliferation and migration.sh-XIST can block this protective function.

Objective:To investigate the pollution status of legionella pneumophila of industrial circulating cooling towers, and explore the factors affecting the positive rate and quantity of legionella pneumophila, in order to provide data support for the risk assessment and hierarchical management of legionella pneumophila in workplaces.Methods:In February, May, August and October 2023, the cooling water samples were collected from a total of 20 industrial circulating cooling towers of 9 enterprises in an industrial park in Shanghai. The water temperature, free residual chlorine, total residual chlorine, turbidity, chroma, pH, conductivity, chemical oxygen consumption, iron content and total plate count in the water samples were detected. Meanwhile, the legionella pneumophila in the water samples were qualitatively and quantitatively analyzed, and the influence of water quality indexes on the positive rate and number of legionella pneumophila detected was analyzed by logistic regression and linear regression respectively.Results:The positive rates of legionella pneumophila in the first to fourth quarters of 20 industrial circulating cooling towers of 9 chemical enterprises were 35% (7/20), 45% (9/20), 45% (9/20), and 85% (17/20). The serotypes of legionella pneumophila detected in the cooling tower were mainly legionella pneumophila type 1 (95.2%, 40/42), and the number of legionella pneumophila ranged from 0.2 to 316.8 cfu/ml. Circulating cooling water temperature ( OR=1.36, 95% CI: 1.12-1.64, P=0.001) and conductivity ( OR=1.02, 95% CI: 1.00-1.03, P=0.026) were independent risk factors affecting the detection of legionella pneumophila. There was a positive correlation between chemical oxygen consumption and the detected amount of legionella pneumophila ( β=8.08, P=0.002) . Conclusion:The positive rate of legionella pneumophila in industrial circulating cooling water system is high, and the detected quantity fluctuates greatly, which may have health risks, suggesting that it is necessary to pay attention to the water quality management such as water temperature, conductivity and chemical oxygen consumption of industrial circulating cooling water and the monitoring and control of legionella pneumophila.

Objective To analyze the composition characteristics and biological functions of tumor cell subpopulations in glioblastoma(GBM)through multi-transcriptomics sequencing technology,and explore the hypoxia characteristics and spatial localization features of the mesenchymal-like(MES-like)tumor cell subpopulation in GBM and the influence on malignant biological behaviors.Methods Multi-transcriptomics sequencing data,including single-cell RNA sequencing(scRNA-seq)data(18 patients),bulk RNA sequencing(bulk RNA-seq)and spatial transcriptomics(ST)data of GBM,were employed to define cell subpopulations in GBM,and Gene Ontology(GO)and Gene Set Enrichment Analysis(GSEA)were utilized to analyze their functions.The proportions and locations of cell subpopulations in bulk RNA-seq data were evaluated with BayesPrism deconvolution.Immunofluorescence assay was conducted for verification on 12 paraffin samples of GBM from patients who visited the neurosurgical department of our hospital from 2015 to 2023 and met the pathological diagnostic criteria for GBM(10 males and 2 females,at an average age of 53.50 years and a median age of 54.50 years).pySCENIC was applied to predict specific transcription factors of tumor cell subpopulations.Results Tumor cells in GBM were highly heterogeneous,and could be mainly divided into 4 subpopulations:astrocyte-like(AC-like),neural progenitor-like(NPC-like),oligodendrocyte progenitor-like(OPC-like)and MES-like.Differential gene analysis found that the MES-like tumor cells highly expressed vascular endothelial growth factor A(VEGFA),adrenomedullin(ADM),N-myc downstream regulated 1(NDRG1),insulin like growth factor binding protein 5(IGFBP5),and A-kinase anchoring protein 12(AKAP12)(P<0.001).pySCENIC transcription factor prediction found that the high-active transcription factors of the MES-like tumor cells were AT-rich interaction domain 3A(ARID3A),FOS like 2,AP-1 transcription factor subunit(FOSL2),endothelial PAS domain protein 1(EPAS1),CCAAT enhancer binding protein delta(CEBPD),and CCAAT enhancer binding protein beta(CEBPB)(P<0.05).GO and GSEA enrichment analyses found that the MES-like tumor cells were enriched in hypoxia-related pathways,especially the pathway of cell responses to hypoxia levels(NES=2.437,P<0.001).BayesPrism deconvolution showed that the MES-like tumor cells mainly existed in PAN(Pseudopalisading cells around necrosis)and perinecrotic zone.Immunofluorescence assay confirmed CD44+(CD44 antigen)MES-like tumor cells were mainly located in hypoxia areas with highly expression of hypoxia inducible factor 1 subunit alpha(HIF1α)(P<0.01).Multivariate Cox regression analysis indicated that the MES-like tumor cells were significantly correlated with the adverse prognosis of GBM patients(HR=1.71,95%CI:1.38～2.11,P<0.001).Conclusion Tumor cells in GBM are of highly heterogeneity.They could be mainly divided into 4 subpopulations:AC-like,NPC-like,OPC-like and MES-like.MES-like tumor cells,mainly locating in PAN and perinecrotic zone,are characterized by hypoxia,which can promote the malignant progression of GBM.

OBJECTIVE To compare the ability of ultra-high-resolution CT(U-HRCT)and multi-slice spiral CT(MSCT)to display key vocal transmission structures in the middle ear.METHODS Subjects with normal middle ear structures who underwent 0.1 mm layer thickness U-HRCT and 0.625 mm layer thickness MSCT scans at the same time in Beijing Friendship Hospital affiliated to Capital Medical University from December 2019 to August 2024 were retrospectively enrolled.Two experienced head and neck radiologists reconstruct standard transsectional,coronal images based on the thinnest layer thickness.According to the 5-point method,16 key sound transmission structures of the middle ear,including malleus,incus and stapes,as well as joints,ligaments and tendons,were evaluated for image quality scoring.The standard deviation(SD)value,signal noise ratio(SNR),and contrast noise ratio(CNR)of bone in the malleus region and intratympanic gas were measured and calculated on the two examination images.RESULTS Thirty patients(47 sides)with normal middle ear structure were included,including 18 males and 12 females.The two physicians compared the results of U-HRCT in showing malleus head,malleus neck,malleus handle,incus body,long process,and short process,5 points accounted for 100%,and the 5-point scores of incudomalleolar joint space,incudostapedial joint space,stapes footplate and annular ligament were 100%,98.29%,75.83%and 77.83%,respectively,which were significantly higher than those of MSCT(P<0.001).In addition,U-HRCT showed higher scores for lenticular process,stapes head,anterior arch of stapes,posterior arch of stapes,annular ligament,stapes muscle,and tendo musculi tensoris tympani than MSCT(P<0.001),and the lenticular process showed a 100%display rate.There was no significant difference in the SNR between the two groups(P>0.05),but the SD value of the malleus in U-HRCT was 161.6±36.4,which was significantly lower than that in MSCT(297.8±128.1),and the difference was statistically significant(P<0.001).CONCLUSION U-HRCT can clearly visualize the key sound transmission structures of the middle ear,and its visualization ability is significantly better than that of MSCT.

A pyrene-phenol-based fluorescent probe PyP which showed typical intramolecular charge transfer(ICT)and monomer-excimer activities was synthesized by using pyrene carboxaldehyde hydrazone and 4-tert-butyl-2,6-diformylphenol as the raw materials.The effects of solvents on PyP were studied,and the results showed that the color of protic polar solvents(Ethanol,N,N-dimethylformamide,methanol and H2O)were successfully identified.Based on the solvent polarity-regulated PyP monomer-excimer switching,the rapid and highly sensitive ratiometric probe,"Turn-off"and"Turn-on"multimodal probes were established for detection of trace water content in organic solvents(Dimethyl sulfoxide,N,N-dimethylformamide,ethanol and methanol),with detection limits(3σ/k)of 0.0021％,0.046％,0.062％and 0.024％.The method was successfully used to detect water content in dimethyl sulfoxide,N,N-dimethy lformamide,ethanol and methanol commercial organic solvents,with recoveries ranging from 97.2％to 108.0％.The developed method showed good accuracy and stability,and had good application prospect.

With the rapid development of competitive sports, the incidence of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury is on the rise. Such injuries may shorten athletes′ career and lead to other long-term adverse consequences. Although athletes generally recover well after ACL reconstruction, many still struggle to return to their pre-injury performance levels. Advances in the understanding of ACL anatomy and injury mechanisms, along with the evolution of surgical techniques and rehabilitation methods, have provided more individualized and tailored options for athletes following ACL injuries. However, there is currently no consensus in China regarding surgical and rehabilitation strategies for competitive athletes aiming to return to sports after ACL injuries. To this end, the Sports Medicine Committee of the Chinese Research Hospital Association and the Editorial Board of the Chinese Journal of Trauma jointly formulated the Expert consensus on surgical treatment and rehabilitation for competitive sports athletes returning to sports after anterior cruciate ligament injury ( version 2025), and presented 14 recommendations covering surgical indications, preoperative rehabilitation, surgical timing, surgical strategies and postoperative rehabilitation strategies, aiming to improve the surgical treatment and rehabilitation system for ACL injuries in competitive athletes and facilitate their return to high-level sports performance after injury.
