Objective To investigate the value of urodynamic study(UDS)in guiding the treatment of lower urinary tract dysfunction(LUTD)in elderly patients with ischemic stroke(IS)during convalescence,in order to provide reference for clinical treatment.Methods A total of 50 LUTD patients with IS who were admitted to the First Affiliated Hospital of Xinxiang Medical University during Jan.2020 and Jan.2022 were selected.Oral tolterodine was administered to patients with detrusor overactivity(DO),clean intermittent catheterization(CIC)to those with no detrusor reflex and symptomatic increased residual urine,and oral administration of tamsulosin to those with functional obstruction of bladder outlet.The lower urinary tract symptoms(LUTS)relief rate,UDS parameters and quality of life(QoL)scores were compared before treatment and 3 months after treatment.Results The UDS examination results showed that 25 cases(50.0％)had simple DO,9 cases(18.0％)had DO with impaired detrusor muscle contraction function,5 cases(10.0％)had DO with bladder outlet functional obstruction,4 cases(8.0％)had no detrusor reflex,and 7 cases(14.0％)had simple bladder outlet functional obstruction.After 3 months of treatment,the symptoms of LUTS,including frequent urination,urgent urination,incontinence,dysuria and urinary retention were significantly improved(P＜0.05).The maximum urine flow rate and urine output were significantly increased,the residual urine volume was significantly reduced,QoL scores were significantly reduced,with significant differences(P＜0.001).Conclusion UDS is significant in guiding the treatment of LUTD in elderly patients with IS during convalescence.

Temporomandibular joint (TMJ) diseases are common clinical conditions. The number of patients with TMJ diseases is large, and the etiology, epidemiology, disease spectrum, and treatment of the disease remain controversial and unknown. To understand and master the current situation of the occurrence, development and prevention of TMJ diseases, as well as to identify the patterns in etiology, incidence, drug sensitivity, and prognosis is crucial for alleviating patients′suffering.This will facilitate in-depth medical research, effective disease prevention measures, and the formulation of corresponding health policies. Cohort construction and research has an irreplaceable role in precise disease prevention and significant improvement in diagnosis and treatment levels. Large-scale cohort studies are needed to explore the relationship between potential risk factors and outcomes of TMJ diseases, and to observe disease prognoses through long-term follw-ups. The consensus aims to establish a standard conceptual frame work for a cohort study on patients with TMJ disease while providing ideas for cohort data standards to this condition. TMJ disease cohort data consists of both common data standards applicable to all specific disease cohorts as well as disease-specific data standards. Common data were available for each specific disease cohort. By integrating different cohort research resources, standard problems or study variables can be unified. Long-term follow-up can be performed using consistent definitions and criteria across different projects for better core data collection. It is hoped that this consensus will be facilitate the development cohort studies of TMJ diseases.

Lipid nanoparticles(LNPs),composed of ionizable lipids,are currently the most promis-ing non-viral nucleic acid drug delivery vectors in clinical practice,and have great potential in gene ther-apy drug delivery and vaccine delivery.Ionizable lipids,the main components of LNPs,play a decisive role in the endosome escape rate,transfection efficiency,organ targeting and safety of LNPs.Among them,the hydrophilic head group of ionizable lipids contains tertiary amine groups,which can improve the buffering capacity of LNPs and thus change the pKa value,and imidazole can enhance the stability and transfection activity of mRNA-LNP.The ligand contains ester groups,which can induce gene silencing efficiently and improve the degradation rate and safety.When the number of hydrophobic tails is 3-4,with 1-2 unsaturation and 8-18 carbon chain length,LNPs can effectively induce gene silencing.Meanwhile,the presence of branching or asymmetric hydrophobic tails can improve the transfection efficiency of LNPs.Based on the chemical structure of ionizable lipids,this review summarizes the influ-ence of the structure of ionizable lipids on the transfection efficiency and safety of nucleic acid carrying drugs LNPs,and the structure-activity relationship of ionizable lipids so as to provide reference for studies on novel ionizable lipids.

Objective To present our initial experience of suturing uterine blood vessels with barbed polydioxanone cog thread by single-port-access large laparoscopic hysterectomy.Methods A respective non-randomized study with two parallel groups was performed from June 2021 to June 2022.The medical records of a total of 41 patients with enlarged uterus were divided into two groups:The single-port access large laparoscopic hysterectomy group by suturing uterine blood vessels with barbed cog thread(experimental group,n = 20),and the four-port assess laparoscopic hysterectomy group(control group,n = 21).The age,body mass index(BMI),a history of abdominal and pelvic surgery,pre-and post-operative hemoglobin(HGB),operative duration,intraoperative bleeding volume,uterine weight,postoperative pain visual analogue scale(VAS)at 24 h,the first postoperative exhaust time and postoperative length of hospital stay were compared between the two groups.Results 41 patients completed the entire procedure successfully without serious complications.Experimental group had a longer median operative time(P<0.01).There were no significant differences in intraoperative bleeding volume,uterine weight,HGB on postoperative day 1,postoperative hospital stays,postoperative exhaust time and postoperative 24-hour pain VAS(P>0.05).Conclusion Our study shows that suturing uterine blood vessels with barbed polydioxanone cog thread in experimental group is safe and feasible for large uterus,but the surgical time is significantly longer than the control group,as the technology becomes more proficient,this situation will be improved.

Objective:To investigate the interactive effect of mismatch repair (MMR) protein status and adverse clinicopathological features on prognosis of stage Ⅰ-Ⅲ colon cancer.Methods:The retrospective cohort study was conducted. The clinicopathological data of 1 650 patients with colon cancer of stage Ⅰ-Ⅲ who were admitted to 7 hospitals in China from January 2016 to December 2017 were collected. There were 963 males and 687 females, aged 62(53,71)years. Patients were classified as 230 cases of MMR deficiency (dMMR) and 1 420 cases of MMR proficiency (pMMR) based on their MMR protein status. Observation indicators: (1) comparison of clinicopathological characteristics between patients of different MMR protein status; (2) analysis of factors affecting the survival outcomes of patients of dMMR; (3) analysis of factors affecting the survival outcomes of patients of pMMR; (4) interaction analysis of MMR and adverse clinicopathological features on survival outcomes. Measurement data with normal distribution were represented as Mean± SD, and comparison between groups was conducted using the independent t test. Measurement data with skewed distribution were represented as M( Q1, Q3), and comparison between groups was conducted using the Mann-Whitney U test. Count data were described as absolute numbers, and comparison between groups was conducted using the chi-square test or Fisher exact probability. Comparison of ordinal data was conducted using the Mann-Whitney U test. The random forest interpolation method was used for missing values in data interpolation. Univariate analysis was conducted using the COX proportional risk regression model, and multivariate analysis was conducted using the COX stepwise regression with forward method. The coefficient of multiplication interaction effect was obtained using the interaction term coefficient of COX proportional risk regression model. Evaluation of additive interaction effects was conducted using the relative excess risk due to interaction ( RERI). Results:(1) Comparison of clinicopathological characteristics between patients of different MMR protein status. There were significant differences in age, T staging, the number of lymph node harvest, the number of lymph node harvest <12, high grade tumor between patients of dMMR and pMMR ( P<0.05). (2) Analysis of factors affecting the survival outcomes of patients of dMMR. Results of multivariate analysis showed that T staging, N staging, the number of lymph node harvest <12 were independent factors affecting the disease-free survival (DFS) of colon cancer patients of dMMR ( hazard ratio=3.548, 2.589, 6.702, 95% confidence interval as 1.460-8.620, 1.064-6.301, 1.886-23.813, P<0.05). Age and N staging were independent factors affecting the overall survival (OS) of colon cancer patients of dMMR ( hazard ratio=1.073, 10.684, 95% confidence interval as 1.021-1.126, 2.311-49.404, P<0.05). (3) Analysis of factors affecting the survival outcomes of patients of pMMR. Results of multivariate analysis showed that age, T staging, N staging, vascular tumor thrombus were independent factors affecting the DFS of colon cancer patients of pMMR ( hazard ratio=1.018, 2.214, 2.598, 1.549, 95% confidence interval as 1.006-1.030, 1.618-3.030, 1.921-3.513, 1.118-2.147, P<0.05). Age, T staging, N staging, high grade tumor were independent factors affecting the OS of colon cancer patients of pMMR ( hazard ratio=1.036, 2.080, 2.591, 1.615, 95% confidence interval as 1.020-1.052, 1.407-3.075, 1.791-3.748, 1.114-2.341, P<0.05). (4) Interaction analysis of MMR and adverse clinicopathological features on survival outcomes. Results of interaction analysis showed that the multiplication interaction effect between the number of lymph node harvest <12 and MMR protein status was significant on DFS of colon cancer patients ( hazard ratio=3.923, 95% confidence interval as 1.057-14.555, P<0.05). The additive interaction effects between age and MMR protein status, between high grade tumor and MMR protein status were significant on OS of colon cancer patients ( RERI=-0.033, -1.304, 95% confidence interval as -0.049 to -0.018, -2.462 to -0.146). Conclusions:There is an interaction between the MMR protein status and the adverse clinicopathological features (the number of lymph node harvest <12, high grade tumor) on prognosis of colon cancer patients of stage Ⅰ-Ⅲ. In patients of dMMR, the number of lymph node harvest <12 has a stronger predictive effect on poor prognosis. In patients of pMMR, the high grade tumor has a stronger predictive effect on poor prognosis.

Laparoscopic pancreaticoduodenectomy is an important surgical undertaking, mostly used for benign and malignant tumors in the pancreatic head and periampullary region. The postoperative pancreatic fistula is the main factor to cause death after pancreaticoduodenectomy, and pancreaticojejunostomy is an independent risk factor for pancreatic fistula. In order to reduce the incidence of pancreatic fistula, surgeons have proposed dozens of pancreaticojejunostomy, but so far there are no randomized trials proved which method of pancreaticojejunostomy is better than the others. This article reviews the methods and characteristics of different pancreaticojejunostomy in laparoscopic pancreaticoduodenectomy.

Objective:To explore the coverage of influenza and pneumonia vaccination and factors influencing the vaccination in children.Methods:A cross-sectional questionnaire survey was conducted in children's parents in Beijing and Gansu by using two-stage cluster-sampling to investigate the influenza and pneumonia vaccination rates and influencing factors in children.Results:A total of 2 377 parents were included in the study, and the results indicated that the influenza vaccination coverage was 35.93% and the pneumonia vaccination coverage was 16.58% in children in survey areas, the vaccination rate of both vaccines was 11.65%. The top three reasons for vaccination for both vaccines were being aware of severity of the diseases (influenza vaccine: 36.02%; pneumonia vaccine: 49.61%), being required by school or organization (influenza vaccine: 28.76%; pneumonia vaccine: 25.45%) and being aware of the susceptibility of the diseases (influenza vaccine: 26.41%; pneumonia vaccine: 13.88%). The top three reasons for having no vaccinations were personal unwillingness, concern about vaccine and vaccine accessibility. Families with multi children, living in rural areas and lower family income were the negative factors for both types of vaccinations.Conclusions:The influenza and pneumonia vaccination coverage in children need further improvement, and rural families and families with multi children are the key concern groups for expanding vaccination coverage. Health education about influenza and pneumonia vaccinations, coordinating vaccine supply and decreasing vaccine prices play an important role in improving influenza and pneumonia vaccination coverage.

We present an overview and aim to improve the diagnosis of acute complications in diabetes mellitus combined with acute abdomen.

Objective:To explore the application value of next-generation sequencing (mNGS) technology in patients with Herpes simplex pneumonia mixed infection.Methods:The clinical data of pneumonia patients who underwent alveolar lavage fluid mNGS technology and traditional pathogen detection in the Affiliated Hospital of Yangzhou University from June 2018 to January 2021 were retrospectively collected.Results:A total of 41 patients with mNGS Herpes simplex type 1 (HSV-1) test (4 HSV-1 carriers, 37 HSV-1 infections) were enrolled in this study, including 22 males and 19 females. The age ranged from 46 to 83 years old, with a median age of 67 years. The higher proportion of pathogens in 25 cases of HSV-1 co-infection detected by mNGS were Pneumocystis jiroveci (6 cases, 24.0%), Acinetobacter baumannii (4 cases, 16.0%), and Klebsiella pneumoniae (4 cases, 16.0%), and Aspergillus fumigatus (3 cases, 12.0%). The difference in the Simpson's diversity index in the HSV-1carrier group, HSV-1 single infection group and HSV-1 mixed infection group was statistically significant ( P<0.05). Compared with 12 cases of HSV-1 single infection, the time for body temperature to return to normal for 25 cases of HSV-1 mixed infection was [(5.16±2.04)days vs (3.75±1.29)days], and course of antibiotic treatment was longer [(10.60±2.18)d vs (8.92±1.98)d]. Conclusions:The mNGS technology has obvious advantages in identifying HSV-1 mixed infections, which is beneficial to physicians to treat them accurately.
