ObjectiveTo explore the role of the histone deacetylase Sirtuin-1 （SIRT1）/p53 signaling pathway in promoting apoptosis of non-small cell lung cancer cells （NSCLC） induced by the co-stimulatory molecule B7 homolog 3 （B7-H3）. MethodsThe GEPIA 2 platform was used for survival analysis of NSCLC patients based on B7⁃H3 gene expression levels. The Gene Enrichment Analysis （GSEA） method was used to analyze the enrichment characteristics of B7⁃H3 molecules in the gene set of cell apoptosis. In the non-small cell lung cancer A549 cell line， B7⁃H3 was knocked down， and the protein expression levels of SIRT1 and p53 were detected by Western blot. B7⁃H3 was overexpressed in A549 cells and the apoptosis rate was analyzed by flow cytometry after Annexin V/PI double staining. Overexpression of B7⁃H3 and knockdown of SIRT1 were performed in A549 cell line. The expression levels of p53 and apoptosis-related proteins B-cell lymphoma/leukemia-2 （Bcl-2） and Bcl-2-associated X protein （Bax） were detected respectively by Western blot. Cell apoptosis rate was analyzed by flow cytometry after Annexin V/PI double staining. ResultsThe overall survival of the B7-H3 high-expression group was significantly lower than that of the low-expression group （P<0.01）. B7-H3 was significantly enriched in the cell apoptosis signaling pathway and the p53 signaling pathway （P<0.05）. Compared with the control group， the expression of SIRT1 was significantly downregulated， and p53 was significantly upregulated in the B7⁃H3 knockdown group （both P<0.001）. Overexpression of B7-H3 significantly up-regulated SIRT1 protein expression （P<0.05）， down-regulated p53 expression （P<0.01）， and markedly increased the Bcl-2/Bax ratio of apoptosis-related proteins （P<0.001）. The results of Annexin V/PI double staining showed that the apoptosis rate of A549 cells with overexpressed B7⁃H3 decreased （the apoptosis rate of the control group was 26.72%±4.13%， while that of the B7⁃H3 overexpression group was 13.87%±0.82%； P<0.01）. In B7-H3-overexpressing cell lines， SIRT1 knockdown significantly reversed apoptosis （P<0.05）， up-regulated p53 protein expression （P<0.001）， and markedly reduced the Bcl-2/Bax ratio （P<0.001）. ConclusionB7-H3 molecule inhibits the apoptosis of non-small cell lung cancer cells via the SIRT1/p53 signaling pathway.

Aim To explore the roles and mechanisms of long non-coding RNA(lncRNA)AC087388.1 and poly(A)binding protein cytoplasmic 1(PABPC1)in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma(ESCC).Meth-ods The expression level of AC087388.1 in ESCC tissues and cells was detected by real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction(RT-qPCR)and fluorescence in situ hybridization experiments and its clinical relevance was analyzed.Cell counting kit-8(CCK-8),clone formation,scratch and Transwell inva-sion assays were used to detect the effects of knock-down of AC087388.1 on the cell viability,prolifera-tion,migratory,and invasion of ESCC cells respectively ability,and sub-localization in cells.RNA pull down and Western blot experiments were employed to verify the interaction between AC087388.1 and PABPC1 in ESCC cells.Salvage experiments were performed to detect the effect of AC087388.1 targeting PABPC1 on ESCC cells.Results AC087388.1 was highly ex-pressed in ESCC tissues and cells and positively corre-lated with clinical stage of ESCC patients,mainly local-ized in cytoplasm.Knockdown AC087388.1 inhibited ESCC cell viability,proliferation,migration and inva-sionability.PABPC1 was selected from the results of RNA Pull Down-MS experiments for subsequent experi-ments,and AC087388.1 was verified to bind to PAB-PC1 by RNA Pull Down and Western blot experiments.Overexpression of AC087388.1 was verified by rescue experiment to reverse the effects of knockdown of PAB-PC1 on ESCC cell viability,proliferation,migration and invasion.Conclusions High expression of AC087388.1 correlates with clinical stage and may be a risk factor for ESCC progression.AC087388.1 pro-motes the cell viability,proliferation,migration and in-vasive ability of ESCC cells by targeting PABPC1,which may be a novel biomarker for the diagnosis and treatment of ESCC.

Objective:To report the 5-year survival outcomes and recurrence patterns of robotic total gastrectomy (RTG) for locally advanced proximal gastric cancer in order to provide more valuable long-term follow-up results for clinical practice.Methods:This was a prospective, single-arm, open-label clinical trial (FUGES-014; Clinical-Trials.gov, NCT03524287). Patients with locally advanced proximal gastric cancer who underwent RTG at Fujian Medical University Union Hospital from March 5, 2018, to February 10, 2020, were included in the analysis. To evaluate the long-term efficacy of RTG in the most objective manner possible, we performed a propensity score-matched (1∶2) comparative analysis with historical control patients who had undergone laparoscopic total gastrectomy (LTG) from the FUGES-002 study (ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT02333721) in which the 5-year disease-free survival (DFS), 5-year overall survival (OS), and recurrence patterns were compared between the two groups.Results:Prior to matching, there were 48 cases in the RTG group and 263 cases in the LTG group; patients in the LTG group had more advanced cT and pT stages ( P=0.044 and 0.006, respectively) compared to the RTG group. After matching, there were 48 cases in the RTG group and 96 cases in the LTG group; however, no statistically significant differences were observed in the baseline clinical characteristics between the two groups (all P>0.05). Both groups had a median follow-up of 72 months. The 5-year DFS rates were 75.0% (95%CI: 63.7%- 88.3%) in the RTG group and 61.4% (95%CI: 52.5%-72.0%) in the LTG group ( P=0.116). Similarly, the 5-year OS rates were 79.2% (95%CI: 68.5%-91.5%) and 64.6% (95%CI: 55.7%-74.9%) in the RTG and LTG groups, respectively ( P=0.100). Within 5 years after surgery, tumor recurrence occurred in 10 patients (20.8%) in the RTG group and 33 patients (34.4%) in the LTG group ( P=0.124), and peritoneal recurrence was the predominant pattern in both groups (8.3%[4/48] vs. 10.4%[10/96]; risk difference: -0.02, P=0.554). Gastric cancer-related death was the predominant cause of death in both groups (16.7% [8/48] vs. 31.2% [30/96]; risk difference: -0.15, P=0.064). Among patients stratified by different pathological stages, no statistically significant differences were found in DFS, OS, or recurrence rates between the RTG and LTG groups (all P>0.05). Conclusions:We find the long-term oncological outcomes of RTG for locally advanced proximal gastric cancer to be noninferior to those of LTG. RTG should therefore be considered as a valid option for standardized minimally invasive surgery for locally advanced proximal gastric cancer.

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.

Objective To establish a real-time fluorescent recombinase polymerase amplification(RPA)technology for the detection of the virulence gene exoS of Pseudomonas aeruginosa,and evaluate the specifici-ty,sensitivity and practicability of the method.Methods According to the specific conserved region of the vir-ulence gene exoS of Pseudomonas aeruginosa,the specific primers and probes of RPA were designed,and the extracted target DNA was detected to determine the specificity and sensitivity of RPA.Real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR(qPCR)was established to detect the target DNA,and the detection limits of different detec-tion methods for Pseudomonas aeruginosa were compared.The feasibility of RPA in detecting Pseudomonas aeruginosa was further confirmed by the performance verification test of clinical samples.Results The estab-lished RPA detection method had good specificity.Only Pseudomonas aeruginosa had specific amplification curve,but no specific amplification curve for other bacteria.The sensitivity of RPA was 5×102 cfu/mL,which was consistent with the detection limit of qPCR and the results were reliable.The detection time of RPA method was only 30 min,which was significantly lower than that of the traditional method.Conclusion The RPA method for the detection of Pseudomonas aeruginosa established in this study has high specificity and sensitivity,and significantly shortens the detection time compared with the traditional detection method.It can be used for the rapid detection of Pseudomonas aeruginosa in clinical specimens.

Objective To investigate the distribution and antimicrobial resistance of bacterial isolates from blood samples in the hospitals participating in China Antimicrobial Surveillance Network (CHINET) from 2015 to 2021.Methods Bacterial strains isolated from blood samples were collected from 52 medical centers participating in CHINET from 2015 to 2021 for analysis of bacetrial distribution and antimicrobial resistance.Results A total of 153591 isolates were collected,48.8％ of which were gram-positive bacteria and 51.2％ were gram-negative bacteria.The top five bacterial strains were coagulase negative Staphylococcus (28.2％),Escherichia coli (20.7％),Klebsiella (13.7％),Enterococcus (7.2％),and Staphylococcus aureus (6.6％).Compard to female patients,male patients showed lower proportion of E.coli and higher proportions of other bacterial species in all the bacterial isolaets from blood samples.The proportions of Streptococcus pneumoniae and Salmonella in all the bacterial isolaets from blood samples were higher in children compared to adults.Enterobacterales species showed various resistance rates to antimicrobial agents.Overall,≥58.0％,≥36.8％ and ≥56.8％ of E.coli strains were resistant to cefotaxime,gentamicin and levofloxacin respectively over the 7-year period.However,less than 2.5％ of the E.coli strains were resistant to carbapenems.K.pneumoniae showed higher resistance rates to imipenem and meropenem than other Enterobacterales species.During the 7-year period,the prevalence of imipenem-resistant and meropenem-resistant K.pneumoniae increased from 21.4％ and 19.9％ in 2015 to 25.7％ and 26.6％ in 2021,respectively.However,carbapenems still maintained good antibacterial activity against other Enterobacterales,associaetd with lower resistance rates.In the 7-year period,Acinetobacter baumannii showed a dwonward trend in the resistance rates to imipenem and meropenem,but remained 72.9％ and 73.2％ respectively in 2021.The prevalence of imipenem-resistant and meropenem-resistant P.aeruginosa decreased from 26.7％ and 22.9％ in 2015 to 18.5％ and 14.7％ in 2021,respectively.The prevalence of PRSP was 1.5％ in the isolaets from adults and and 0.8％ in the isolates from children.Less than 3.0％ of the Enterococcus faecium and Enterococcus faecalis strains were resistant to vancomycin,teicolanin,or linezolid.The prevalence of methicillin-resistant S.aureus (MRSA) and coagulase negative Staphylococcus (MRCNS) was 32.1％ and 81.0％,respectively.The prevalence of MRSA was relatively stable,28.5％ in 2015 and 28.0％ in 2021.Conclusions Coagulase negative Staphylococcus,E.coli and K.pneumoniae were the main bacterial species isolated from blood samples in the hospitals participaing in the CHINET from 2015 to 2021.Significant sex and age differences were found in the distribution of bcterial isolates from blood samples.The overall resistance rates of the top bacetrial strains from blood samples to antimicrobial agents showed a downward trend.Ongoing surveillance of antimicrobial resistance for the isolates from blood samples is still essential for prescribing rational antimicrobial therapies and curbing bacterial resistance.

Objective To retrospectively investigate the efficacy of pelvic floor muscle training(PFMT)using APP-based home device in the real-world scenario.Methods A retrospective survey was conducted among 171 000 Chinese female users over 18 years old who freely registered APP and performed PFMT using a domestic manufactured home device from Oct 1,2019 to Mar 31,2021.The Patient Global Impression of Improvement(PGI-I)questionnaires concerning pelvic floor general condition,sexual satisfaction and other three major symptoms related to pelvic floor muscle laxity such as stress urinary incontinence(SUI),pelvic organ prolapse(POP),and vaginal laxity(VL)were broadcast public online for users to self-assess the improvement.The vaginal muscle strength values prior and post training recorded by APP were also reported.All data were collected anonymously for further stratified analysis.Results A total of 984 valid questionnaires were collected by systematic sampling.The PGI-I scores of pelvic floor general condition(P=0.000 1),sexual satisfaction(P=0.009),SUI(P=0.000 1),POP(P=0.044)and VL(P=0.034)were statistically significant in users who reported to use the device for 3 months or more compared with those less than 3 months.In addition,the increase of vaginal muscle strength was related to the improvement of PGI-I scores in SUI and POP with statistical significance.There were no significant difference in subgroups such as age,education,parity,and delivery mode.Conclusion The subjective benefit of pelvic floor function-related symptoms and the improvement of vaginal muscle strength could be observed after PFMT for three months or more using APP-based home device in Chinese women in the real-world scenario.
