Objective:To explore the safety and efficacy of ureteroscopy-assisted laparoscopic ureteroplasty in the healthy side-lying running position for the treatment of ureteral stenosis after pelvic surgery.Methods:The data of 92 patients with ureteral stenosis after surgery admitted to Ganzhou People’s Hospital from June 2017 to February 2023 were retrospectively analysed. There were 31 male patients and 61 female patients, with an average age of (46.4±23.3) years. Of the 92 patients, 53 patients had previously undergone stone fragmentation or stone retrieval surgery for urinary system stones, 35 patients had undergone gynecologic laparoscopic surgery for gynecologic diseases, 2 patients had previous intestinal surgery, and 2 patients had undergone laparoscopic ureteral reconstruction surgery. The mean preoperative serum creatinine was (120.33±16.52) μmol/L, the mean blood urea nitrogen was (14.28 ± 2.47) mmol/L, and the mean renal pelvis dilation was (3.23±2.47) cm. All patients were placed in healthy side-lying running position with general anesthesia. The patient's lower limbs were in the oblique supine position, and the angle of the lower limbs was 60-80°. By using a transabdominal approach, the narrow section of the ureter was mobilized and excised under the guidance of ureteroscopy. The posterior wall of the ureter was sutured and a zebra guidewire was placed into the renal pelvis. An F7 double-J stent was then retrogradely advanced over the guidewire. Then the anterior wall of the ureter was anastomosed to complete the surgery. The operation time, average length of hospital stay, perioperative complications, preoperative and postoperative pyelectasis and renal function changes were recorded, and the clinical efficacy were evaluated by comparative analysis.Results:Of the 92 patients, 90 patients were successfully treated with ureterovesical anastomosis. Two patients underwent ureterovesical reimplantation because of the low position and heavy adhesion of the stenosis segment. There were no cases of conversion to open surgery or intraoperative death. The mean surgery duration was (121.52±22.35) min, the mean drainage tube indwelling time was (3.16±1.23) d, and the mean hospital stay was (6.46±2.37) d. A patient with moderate hydronephrosis exhibited postoperative urinary leakage. Two patients developed symptoms of hematuria after ambulation. Following treatment with bed rest, adequate drainage, and appropriate hemostatic medication, all patients recovered smoothly and were discharged. The double J tube was removed 3 months after operation, and the CT reexamination after extubation showed that the degree of pyelectasis was (2.52±1.54) cm, the average serum creatinine was (89.64±15.21) μmol/L, and urea nitrogen was (9.42±1.36) mmol/L, which was all significantly different from that before operation ( P<0.05). The patients were followed up for 6 to 12 months, and there was no ureteral restenosis. Conclusions:Ureteroscopic-assisted laparoscopic ureteroplasty in the healthy side-lying running position is a safe and effective surgical method for the treatment of short segment (narrow segment <3 cm) ureteral cicatrix stenosis after surgery. And this surgical method has the advantages of accurate positioning of the narrow segment, safe and convenient ureteral free, exact ureteral anastomosis, and easy placement of double J tube.

Objective:To explore the current situation and influencing factors of quality of life of septic patients in intensive care unit (ICU) after discharge, and to provide theoretical basis for clinical early psychological intervention and continuity of care.Methods:A prospective observational study was conducted. The septic patients who were hospitalized in the department of critical care medicine of the Affiliated Hospital of Jining Medical University and discharged with improvement from January 1 to December 31, 2022 were selected as the research objects. The demographic information, basic diseases, infection site, vital signs at ICU admission, severity scores of the condition within 24 hours after ICU admission, various biochemical indexes, treatment process, and prognostic indexes of all the patients were recorded. All patients were assessed by questionnaire at 3 months of discharge using the 36-item short-form health survey scale (SF-36 scale), the activities of daily living scale (ADL scale), and the Montreal cognitive assessment scale (MoCA scale). Multiple linear regression was used to analyze the factors influencing the quality of life of septic patients after discharge from the hospital.Results:A total of 200 septic patients were discharged with improvement and followed up at 3 months of discharge, of which 150 completed the questionnaire. Of the 150 patients, 57 had sepsis and 93 had septic shock. The total SF-36 scale score of septic patients at 3 months of discharge was 81.4±23.0, and the scores of dimensions were, in descending order, role-emotional (83.4±23.0), mental health (82.9±23.6), bodily pain (82.8±23.3), vitality (81.6±23.2), physical function (81.4±23.5), general health (81.1±23.3), role-physical (79.5±27.0), and social function (78.8±25.2). There was no statistically significant difference in the total SF-36 scale score between the patients with sepsis and septic shock (82.6±22.0 vs. 80.7±23.6, P > 0.05). Incorporating the statistically significant indicators from linear univariate analysis into multiple linear regression analysis, and the results showed that the factors influencing the quality of life of septic patients at 3 months after discharge included ADL scale score at 3 months after discharge [ β= 0.741, 95% confidence interval (95% CI) was 0.606 to 0.791, P < 0.001], length of ICU stay ( β= -0.209, 95% CI was -0.733 to -0.208, P = 0.001), duration of mechanical ventilation ( β= 0.147, 95% CI was 0.122 to 0.978, P = 0.012), total dosage of norepinephrine ( β= -0.111, 95% CI was -0.044 to -0.002, P = 0.028), mean arterial pressure (MAP) at ICU admission ( β= -0.102, 95% CI was -0.203 to -0.007, P = 0.036) and body weight ( β= 0.097, 95% CI was 0.005 to 0.345, P = 0.044). Conclusions:The quality of life of patients with sepsis at 3 months after discharge is at a moderately high level. The influencing factors of the quality of life of patients with sepsis at 3 months after discharge include the ADL scale score at 3 months after discharge, the length of ICU stay, the duration of mechanical ventilation, the total dosage of norepinephrine, MAP at ICU admission and body weight, and healthcare professionals should enhance the treatment and care of the patients during their hospitalization based on the above influencing factors, and pay attention to early psychological intervention and continued care for such patients.

The Ly-6 and uPAR (LU) domain-containing proteins represent a large family of cell-surface markers. In particular, mouse Ly-6A/Sca-1 is a widely used marker for various stem cells; however, its human ortholog is missing. In this study, based on a systematic survey and comparative genomic study of mouse and human LU domain-containing proteins, we identified a previously unannotated human gene encoding the candidate ortholog of mouse Ly-6A/Sca-1. This gene, hereby named LY6A, reversely overlaps with a lncRNA gene in the majority of exonic sequences. We found that LY6A is aberrantly expressed in pituitary tumors, but not in normal pituitary tissues, and may contribute to tumorigenesis. Similar to mouse Ly-6A/Sca-1, human LY6A is also upregulated by interferon, suggesting a conserved transcriptional regulatory mechanism between humans and mice. We cloned the full-length LY6A cDNA, whose encoded protein sequence, domain architecture, and exon-intron structures are all well conserved with mouse Ly-6A/Sca-1. Ectopic expression of the LY6A protein in cells demonstrates that it acts the same as mouse Ly-6A/Sca-1 in their processing and glycosylphosphatidylinositol anchoring to the cell membrane. Collectively, these studies unveil a novel human gene encoding a candidate biomarker and provide an interesting model gene for studying gene regulatory and evolutionary mechanisms.

Objective To investigate the effects of PM2.5 exposure on the quality of IVF eggs and the quality of embryos. Methods 40 healthy female Kunming mice and 10 male mice were used in this study. 40 female mice were randomly divided into 4 groups:low dose of PM2.5 group (1.5 mg/kg),middle dose of PM2.5 group (7.5 mg/kg),high dose of PM2.5 group (15 mg/kg) and the control group (to give the same volume of saline),with 10 mice in each group. PM2.5 was administered via tracheal instillation. The number of oocytes ,fertilization rate ,abnormal fertilization rate ,2PN cleavage rate ,2PN blastocyst rate and blastocyst formation rate were determined ,as well as levels of TNF-α and IFN-γ. Results The number of oocytes , fertilization rate and cleavage rate of 2PN were significantly higher in PM2.5 high dose of PM2.5 group than those in PM2.5 group. The rate of high quality embryos and blastocyviast formation were decreased ,but abnormal fertilization rate were decreased (P < 0.05). The expressions of TNF-α and IFN-γ in the high-dose of PM2.5 group were significantly higher than those in the middle-dose of PM2.5 group and in the low-dose of PM2.5 group(P < 0.05),while the expressions of TNF-α and IFN-γ in the middle dose group was significantly higher than those in the low dose group(P<0.05). Conclusions PM2.5 exposure can decrease the number of oocytes , fertilization rate ,2PN cleavage rate ,2PN blastocyst rate and blastocyst formation rate of in vitro fertilization in mice.

Objective To explore the relevance between gait speed and muscle strength of lower extremities, or several kinds of physical functional tests. Methods 341 community-dwelling individuals (160 males, 181 females) aged 65-94 years were selected. They were divided into suspected sarcopenia group (n=137) and normal group (n=204) by their gait speed less or more than 0.8 m/s. It was compared between both groups with the basic physical characteristics, strength of iliopsoas, quadriceps, hamstrings and tibialis anterior, and the scores of One Leg Standing Test, Berg Balance Scale, Functional Gait Assessment, Functional Stretch Test and Timed Up and Go Test. Results The subjects were older in the suspected sarcopenia group than in the normal group. The difference of body weight, height were not statistically significant between groups. The strength of the muscles in bilateral lower limbs was not significantly different between both groups (P>0.05), while the gait speed positively correlated with the strength of iliopsoas, quadriceps and hamstrings (r=0.121-0.227, P<0.05), but not with the tibialis anterior (P>0.05). Gait speed positively correlated with the scores of One Leg Standing Test, Berg Balance Scale, Functional Gait Assessment, Functional Stretch Test (P<0.05), and negatively correlated with the score of Timed Up and Go Test (r=-0.502, P<0.001). The scores of all the tests were significantly different between 2 groups (P<0.05), except that of Functional Stretch Test (P=0.28). Conclusion Sarcopenia diagnosis is not only depended on the strength of muscle of lower extremity, but also their functions.
