Triple-negative breast cancer is therapeutically challenging due to the low expression of tumor markers and 'cold' tumor immunosuppressive microenvironment. Here, we present a dual-targeting peptide-drug conjugate (PDC) for tumor inhibition. Our PDC efficiently and selectively delivers cytotoxic Monomethyl Auristatin E (MMAE) into tumor cells via C-X-C chemokine receptor type 4 (CXCR4) and folate receptor 1 (FOLR1) for synergistic inhibition of growth and metastasis. Our results show that the dual-targeting PDC has potent antitumor activity in cultured human cells and several murine transplanted tumor models without apparent toxicity. The combination of dual-targeting PDC and radiotherapy modulates the tumor immunosuppressive microenvironment by increasing CD8⁺ T cell infiltration and attenuating the proportion of myeloid-derived suppressor and regulatory T cells. Therefore, our dual-targeting PDC represents a promising new strategy for cancer therapy that rebalances the immune system and promotes tumor regression.

Objective: To explore the relationship between dieting and binge eating with non suicidal self-injury (NSSI) among secondary vocational school students, so as to provide a scientific basis for the development of effective interventions to prevent NSSI. Methods: From October to December 2023, 2 364 students were selected by stratified cluster random sampling method from nine secondary vocational schools in Guizhou Province to conduct a self administered questionnaire survey. Unconditional binary Logisitic regression was used to analyze the relationship between dieting, binge eating behaviours, and the co-occurrence of the two and NSSI among secondary vocational school students, and were stratified by sex. Results: The detection rate of NSSI among secondary vocational school students in Guizhou Province was 27.5%, 6.8% of secondary vocational school students reported dieting, 10.5% reported binge eating behaviour, and 2.9% showed both dieting and binge eating behaviours. The adjusted model of unconditional binary Logistic regression showed that the presence of dieting ( OR =2.37), binge eating behaviour ( OR =2.31), and the co-occurrence of both ( OR =2.60) were associated with higher risk of NSSI among secondary vocational school students; stratified analysis by gender showed that both males and females with dieting, binge eating and coexistence of dieting and binge eating behaviours were at increased risk of NSSI (females: OR =2.27, 2.26, 2.78 ; males: OR =2.15, 2.08, 2.02) ( P <0.01). Conclusions Dieting and binge eating behavior of secondary vocational school students will increase the risk of NSSI. When preventing and intervening NSSI problems of secondary vocational school students, it should pay more attention to eating habits.

Objective To investigate the expression of long non-coding RNA(LncRNA)nuclera-enriched autosomal transcript(NEAT1)in children with retinoblastoma(Rb)and the effect of down-regulation of NEAT1 in Rb cell Y79 on cell biological function.Methods A total of 83 children with Rb who were diagnosed and treated in Huangshi Central Hospital from March 2015 to March 2021 were collected as the research object.During the same period,50 healthy children(control group)were selected in the children's health center.Quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction(qRT-PCR)was used to detect the expression of NEAT1 in serum.The differences in the expressions of NEAT1 in serum between Rb children and the control group,and the differences in the expressions of NEAT1 in serum among Rb children with different clinical indicators,were analyzed.Y79 cells were cultured and were divided into si-NEAT1 group(transfected with interference sequence of NEAT1),si-NC group(transfected with control sequence)and Ctl group(only add transfection reagent).The qRT-PCR,MTT,flow cytometry and Transwell were used to detect the NEAT1 expression,cell proliferation,apoptosis,migration and invasion.Results The expression level of NEAT1 in the serum of children with Rb(1.43±0.28)was higher than that in the control group(1.01±0.21),with significant difference(t=9.116,P＜0.001).The expression levels of NEAT1 in serum of children with Rb with Intraocular International Retinoblastoma classification(IIRC)stage CDE,poor differentiation,optic nerve infiltration and lymph node metastasis were higher than those in children with Rb with AB,medium to high differentiation,no optic nerve infiltration and lymph node metastasis,with significant differences(t=2.190～3.693,all P＜0.05).The area under the curve for diagnosing Rb based on NEAT1 expression in serum was 0.882(95％CI:0.826～0.937).When the expression level of NEAT1 was 1.20,the sensitivity and specificity were 80.00％and 79.52％,respectively.Compared with the si-NC group(1.03±0.09)and the Ctl group(1.02±0.15),the expression level of NEAT1 in the si-NEAT1 group(0.35±0.06)was decreased,with significant differences(t=14.829,9.994,all P＜0.001).The absorbance A values in the si-NEAT1 group at 24,48,72 and 96h were significantly lower than those in the si-NC group and the Ctl group(t=si-NC=2.796～4.362,tCtl=2.641～5.555,all P＜0.05),while the apoptosis rate in the si-NEAT1 group was significantly higher than those in the si-NC group and the Ctl group,and the differences were statistically significant(t=4.999,3.915,all P＜0.05).Compared with the si-NC group and the Ctl group,the number of migrating cells(116.50±9.35 vs 132.00±7.32,134.00±7.95)and the number of invasive cells(96.33±8.94 vs 117.67±12.39,119.17±10.05)in the si-NEAT1 group were reduced,and the differences were statistically significant(tsi-NC=3.196,3.421,tCtl=3.492,4.159,all P＜0.05).Conclusion The expression level of NEAT1 in the serum of children with Rb was elevated,which may have a certain diagnostic value for children with Rb.Silencing the expression of NEAT1 in Y79 cells could reduce cell proliferation,accelerate cell apoptosis,and inhibit cell migration and invasion.

Objective:To investigate the anatomic mechanism and risk factors of intracranial embolism caused by injection at temporal region.Methods:(1) Latex perfusion was performed on the vessels of 8 cranial specimens. The vessels from the superficial temporal artery to the carotid artery were dissected to measure the length, the diameter of starting point and ending point and the volume of vessels (drainage method). (2) Cranial CT angiography of 20 patients (excluding patients with cervical diseases) were obtained from the database of Zhejiang Provincial People’s Hospital from January 2021 to December 2022. The length, the diameter of starting point and ending point, and the volume of vessels were measured. (3) 5 plastic surgeons used pressure simulation measuring equipment to vigorously press the temporal region of the real skull model according to the clinical practice and maintain 2 s to obtain the maximum pressure value. The additional pressure on the temporal region was obtained by subtracting the common carotid artery base pressure [set at 90, 120, 150 and 200 mmHg (1 mmHg = 0.133 kPa)] from the maximum pressure.Results:(1) 8 arteries were collected from 4 skull specimens. The length of vessels was (169.5±7.2) mm, the diameter of the starting point of vessel was (4.29±0.28) mm, the diameter of the ending point of vessel was (1.31±0.15) mm, and the volume was (1.56±0.21) ml. (2) There were 11 males and 9 females among 20 patients aged 23-53 years. The length of vessels was (172.2±7.6) mm, the diameter of the starting point of vessel was (5.63±0.43) mm, the diameter of the ending point of vessel was (1.77±0.16) mm, and the volume was (1.59±0.23) ml. (3) The mean value of additional pressure generated by local pressure on the temporal region by 5 physicians was (127.2±10.1) mmHg (113.8-138.6 mmHg).Conclusion:When the injection volume into the superficial temporal artery was more than 1.6 ml, the artery was damaged, and the temporal area was pressed strongly (the local pressure was more than 110 mmHg above the basic pressure), the injection material might flow into the intracranial from the junction of the common carotid artery and into the internal carotid artery, which was the possible mechanism of the temporal filling leading to intracranial embolism.

Telephone follow-up is one of the important ways to follow up patients. High-quality follow-up can benefit both doctors and patients. However, clinical research-related follow-up is often faced with problems such as time-consuming, laborious and poor patient compliance. The authors belong to a team that has been committed to the study of patient-reported outcomes for a long time. The team has carried out long-term follow-up of symptoms, daily function and postoperative complications of more than 1 000 patients after lung cancer surgery, and accumulated certain experience. In this paper, the experience of telephone follow-up was summarized and discussed with relevant literatures from the aspects of clarifying the purpose of clinical research follow-up, understanding the needs of patients in follow-up, and using follow-up skills.

Objective:To investigate the clinical effect of "mutual support" framework in costal cartilage rhinoplasty.Methods:From June 2020 to December 2021, the patients were enrolled and undergone rhinoplasty with bilateral lower lateral cartilage margin incision combined with nasal columnar incision in the Department of Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery of Zhejiang Provincial People’s Hospital. During the operation, the sixth costal cartilage was made into the nasal columella support graft(strut) and the nasal tip graft integrated scaffold, and the septal extension grafts (SEG). The strut and SEG were sutured in the same plane to construct the framework to correct the aesthetic defects of the nose. Abode Photoshop CS 6.0 was used to measure a series of aesthetics index before and 6 months after surgery, including nasofrontal angle, nasorostral angle, nasolabial angle, columella lobular angle, ratio of tip projection to the length of the nose and ratio of the length of the infratip lobule to the length of the nasal columella to evaluate the surgical effect. Visual analogue scale (VAS) and rhinoplasty outcome evaluation (ROE) were used to investigate the patients’ satisfaction. Paired t-test was used for data analysis and P<0.05 was considered statistically significant. Results:A total of 53 patients were enrolled, including 4 males and 49 females, aged from 18 to 45 years (average age: 25.6 years). Forty-nine cases were primary rhinoplasty and 4 cases were secondary rhinoplasty. No short-term complications including hemorrhage and infection occurred in 53 patients. All patients were followed up for 6-12 months. There were statistically significant differences in nasofrontal angle, nasorostral angle, nasolabial angle, columella lobular angle, ratio of tip projection to the length of the nose and ratio of the length of the infratip lobule to the length of the nasal columella( P<0.01), which sugguested that aesthetic defects of the nose were corrected and no obvious deflection and rotation of nasal tip occured. VAS score and ROE score postoperatively were 7.6±0.4 and 21.3±2.1, respectively, which were significantly higher than preoperatively( 6.1±0.5, 10.5±1.6)( P< 0.01). Postoperative satisfaction survey showed that swelling disappeared within 4-6 weeks after surgery, and no obvious ventilatory disorder, paresthesia and hyposmia symptoms occurred. Most patients were satisfied with the aesthetic and functional results. Conclusions:The "mutual support" framework in costal cartilage rhinoplasty can reduce the risk of framework deflection and nasal tip rotation and obtain satisfactory nasal columella shape.
