ObjectiveTo investigate the clinical and pathological features of intrahepatic intraductal papillary neoplasm of the bile duct (IPNB), and to improve the understanding, diagnosis, and treatment of this disease. MethodsA retrospective analysis was performed for four patients who underwent surgical resection in Beijing Chaoyang Hospital, Capital Medical University, from January 2010 to December 2025 and were diagnosed with intrahepatic IPNB based on pathological examination. The clinical, imaging, and pathological features of these patients were summarized, and a literature review was performed for related articles in China and globally. ResultsAmong the four patients, there were three female patients and one male patient, with a median age of 65 years, and clinical manifestations included jaundice, abdominal pain or diarrhea, and asymptomatic findings on physical examination. The main imaging manifestation was bile duct dilatation or solid-cystic space-occupying lesion. Pathological typing revealed one case each of the gastric, intestinal, pancreatobiliary, and oncocytic types, and there was one patient with low-grade intraepithelial neoplasia and three patients with high-grade intraepithelial neoplasia, among whom one patient also had invasive carcinoma. ConclusionIntrahepatic IPNB is a rare precancerous lesion of the liver with diverse clinical, imaging, and pathological manifestations, and radical surgical resection remains the cornerstone of treatment.

Objective To examine the changing prevalence and antimicrobial resistance profiles of Burkholderia cepacia in 52 hospitals across China from 2015 to 2021.Methods A total of 9 261 strains of B.cepacia were collected from 52 hospitals between January 1,2015 and December 31,2021.Antimicrobial susceptibility of the strains was tested using Kirby-Bauer method or automated antimicrobial susceptibility testing systems according to a unified protocol.The results were interpreted according to the breakpoints released in the Clinical & Laboratory Standards Institute(CLSI)guidelines(2023 edition).Results A total of 9 261 strains of B.cepacia were isolated from all age groups,especially elderly patients.The proportion was 11.1%(1 032 strains)in children,significantly lower than the proportion in adults.About half(46.5%,4 310/9 261)of the strains were isolated from patients at least 60 years old and 42.3%(3 919/9 261)of the strains were isolated from young adults.Most isolates(71.1%)were isolated from sputum and respiratory secretions,followed by urine(10.7%)and blood samples(8.1%).B.cepacia isolates were highly susceptible to the five antimicrobial agents recommended in the CLSI M100 document(33rd edition,2023).B.cepacia isolates showed relatively higher resistance rates to meropenem and levofloxacin.However,the resistance rates to ceftazidime,trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole,and minocycline remained below 8.1%.The percentage of B.cepacia strains resistant to levofloxacin was the highest compared to other antibiotics in any of the three age groups(from 12.4%in the patients<18 years old to 20.6%in the patients aged 60 years or older).Conclusions B.cepacia is one of the clinically important non-fermenting gram-negative bacteria.Accurate and timely reporting of antimicrobial susceptibility test results and ongoing antimicrobial resistance surveillance are helpful for rational prescription of antimicrobial agents and proper prevention and control of nosocomial infections.

Purpose To evaluate the value of preoperative MRI-based radiomic models for assessing tumor-infiltrating CD8+T-cell expression in glioblastoma patients,and to identify the most stable and efficient radiomic feature region for predicting prognosis following immunotherapy.Materials and Methods This retrospective study included 150 patients with histopathologically confirmed glioblastoma from Lanzhou University Second Hospital(January 2018 to April 2022).Tumor-infiltrating CD8+T-cell expression was quantitatively assessed using immunohistochemical staining,with patients stratified into CD8-high and CD8-low expression groups based on overall survival.A total of 1 185 radiomic features were extracted from each patient's contrast-enhanced T1C and T2WI images,covering the original tumor region and sequentially expanded peritumoral regions(2.5 mm,5.0 mm,7.5 mm,10.0 mm,12.5 mm,15.0 mm morphological dilation of tumor core+peritumoral area).Feature selection was performed using variance threshold,minimum redundancy maximum relevance,and least absolute shrinkage and selection operator methods.XGBoost classifier was employed to construct clinical,radiomic,and clinical-radiomic multimodal combined prediction models.Diagnostic performance was evaluated using receiver operating characteristic curve analysis.Results The radiomic model based on tumor expansion of 7.5 mm(tumor+peritumoral region)demonstrated optimal predictive performance.The clinical-radiomic multimodal combined model showed superior predictive capability compared to clinical and radiomic models alone,achieving an area under the curve of 0.991 and accuracy of 99.0%in the training set,and area under the curve of 0.840 with accuracy of 80.0%in the validation set.Conclusion MRI radiomics provides a feasible approach for evaluating tumor-infiltrating CD8+T-cell expression in glioblastoma patients,offering potential for preoperative prognosis prediction.

Objective To investigate the learning curve of real-life vaginal delivery,including its difficult steps and influencing factors,to optimize the future training of vaginal delivery for residents in department of obstetrics and gynecology.Methods From 25 Sep 2020 to 12 Mar 2022,OBGYN residents without previous experiences in vaginal delivery were prospectively enrolled in Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital,Fudan University.Residents performed normal vaginal delivery under the supervision of senior obstetricians and midwives.The performance score(PS)of vaginal delivery and its 9 steps were evaluated via a questionnaire fulfilled by the supervisor once each delivery was finished.Logistic regression models were performed for univariate and multivariate analyses to evaluate the factors that might be correlated with the PS.Results Eventually,233 deliveries performed by 60 residents were analyzed.Results showed that more than 10 deliveries were needed for 70%of residents to obtain minimal competence of vaginal delivery.Perineal protection,delivery of the fetal head,delivery of the fetal shoulders and repair of episiotomy or laceration were found to be the most difficult steps,which required more practices to achieve minimal competence level.Univariate analyses showed the delivery experience,the times of observation/simulation/training,and humanistic care skills might influence the total PS(P<0.05).However,only delivery experience(OR=1.43,95%CI:1.22-1.67)and the times of observation(OR=1.02,95%CI:1.00-1.04)were found to be independently correlated with the total PS in multivariate analyses.Conclusion More than 10 real-life practices were required to achieve the minimal competence of normal vaginal delivery.Enhancing the training on the four difficult steps of vaginal delivery might improve the learning efficiency when delivery opportunities are limited.

Aim To explore the mechanism by which dioscin regulates IL-17+γδT cells in the treatment of arthritis.Methods A collagen-induced arthritis(CIA)model was established in DBA/1 mice using bovine type Ⅱ collagen.The mice were randomly divid-ed into the CIA model group,methotrexate(MTX)positive control group,and dioscin low-dose(Dioscin-L),medium-dose(Dioscin-M),and high-dose(Dios-cin-H)groups.After intervention,the therapeutic effects were evaluated using scoring methods.Joint pathological damage was analyzed by hematoxylin and eosin(HE)staining.The levels of anti-collagen-spe-cific antibodies and the pro-inflammatory cytokine IL-17 were measured by ELISA.The expressions of γδT cells and their subtypes,as well as the secretion level of IL-17,were detected by flow cytometry.Results Dioscin significantly reduced the arthritis severity score in collagen-induced arthritis(CIA)mice,alleviated joint pathological damage,inhibited the production of IL-17 by splenic lymphocytes and the levels of anti-col-lagen-specific antibodies total IgG and IgG3,and de-creased the proportion of γδT cells in the lymph nodes,splenic γδT cells,and the Vδ4+T-cell subset.The level of IL-17 produced by the Vδ4 subtype in the lymph nodes of the intervention groups was lower than that in the model group,but the difference was not sta-tistically significant.Conclusion Dioscin has signifi-cant therapeutic effect on CIA,and its mechanism may be through the inhibition of γδT cells,but it is unlikely to be related to IL-17 derived from γδT cells.

The impact of hypertensive disorders of pregnancy(HDP)on maternal and fetal outcomes is well-established.However,the relationship between high-normal blood pressure(BP)and HDP,as well as its association with adverse maternal-fetal outcomes,remains unclear.This retrospective study analyzed singleton pregnancies delivered at Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital,Fudan University from Jan 2021 to Dec 2021.Participants were categorized into a normal BP group(BP<130/80 mmHg before delivery admission)and two high-normal BP groups(BP:130-139/80-89 mmHg)with subgroup analysis based on gestational week of BP elevation before and after 20 weeks.Maternal characteristics,HDP incidence and adverse outcomes were compared across groups.The results demonstrated that compared with the normal BP group,both high-normal BP groups showed significantly increased HDP incidence,with more pronounced risk in the high-normal BP(after 20 weeks)group.The high-normal BP(before 20 weeks)group was associated with elevated risks of iatrogenic preterm birth and small for gestational age(SGA).This study provides a theoretical basis for implementing stricter BP monitoring strategies to reduce adverse maternal and neonatal outcomes.

The glymphatic system(GS)is a unique toxic sub-stance clearance system in brain,which is very important for maintaining the microenvironment stability of the central nervous system.The polarization distribution of aquaporin 4(AQP4)lo-cated in the terminal foot of astrocytes affects the function of GS and participates in the pathological progress of many neurodegen-erative diseases,but the detailed regulation mechanism of AQP4 polarization distribution has not been systematically summarized.Therefore,this paper systematically combs the mechanism of reg-ulating the polarization distribution of AQP4 from the perspective of the composition integrity of dystrophin-glycoprotein complex(DGC)and basement membrane foot complex,and summarizes the potential drug and non-drug therapies for targeted regulation of AQP4 polarization distribution at present,aiming at providing new target reference and theoretical basis for targeted regulation of AQP4 polarization to prevent and treat neurodegenerative dis-eases.
