Objective:To explore the prognosis after radical resection for stage Ⅰ gastric cancer and the application value of adjuvant chemotherapy.Methods:The retrospective cohort study was conducted. The clinicopathological data of 3 353 patients with stage Ⅰ gastric cancer who were admitted to Fudan University Shanghai Cancer Center from January 2000 to December 2022 were collected. There were 2 369 males and 984 females, aged 60(range, 21-91) years. All patients underwent radical R 0 resection. Observation indicators: (1) clinicopathological characteristics of patients; (2) influencing factors for postoperative prognosis of patients; (3) prognostic analysis of patients; (4) construction and validation of a predictive model for the efficacy of postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy. Comparison of count data between groups was conducted using the chi-square test. Univariate and multivariate analyses were performed using the Cox proportional hazards regression model. The Kaplan-Meier method was used to calculate survival rates and draw survival curves, and the Log-rank test was used for survival analysis. Based on the multivariate analysis result, a nomogram prediction model was constructed to predict survival benefit. Results:(1) Clinicopatho-logical characteristics of patients. The highly, moderately, and poorly differentiated tumors were observed in 16, 234, 396 cases of 646 patients aged <50 years and 279, 1 617, 811 cases of 2 707 pati-ents aged ≥50 years, respectively, showing a significant difference in degree of tumor differentiation between them ( P<0.05). For 297 patients in stage T1N1M0, cases aged <50 years and ≥50 years were 71 and 226, cases of males and females were 184 and 113, cases with negative and positive vascular invasion were 37 and 260, cases with negative and positive nerve invasion were 275 and 22, cases without and with postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy were 222 and 75, respectively. The above indicators for 678 patients in stage T2N0M0 105, 573, 533, 145, 517, 161, 526, 152, 563, 115, respectively. There were significant differences in the above indicators between the two groups ( P<0.05). (2) Influencing factors for postoperative prognosis of patients. Results of multivariate analysis showed that age ≥50 years, stage T2, moderately differentiated tumor, the number of lymph nodes dissected <16, positive vascular invasion, carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) ≥5 μg/L, and CA19-9 ≥37 U/mL were independent risk factors for disease-free survival (DFS) after surgery for stage Ⅰ gastric cancer ( hazard ratio=4.600, 1.555, 1.835, 1.362, 1.451, 1.571, 2.134, 95% confidence interval as 2.806-7.541, 1.205-2.006, 1.016-3.314, 1.059-1.753, 1.057-1.993, 1.100-2.243, 1.257-3.625, P<0.05). Age ≥50 years, stage T2, the number of lymph nodes dissected <16, positive vascular invasion, CEA ≥5 μg/L, and CA19-9 ≥37 U/mL were independent risk factors for overall survival (OS) after surgery for stage Ⅰ gastric cancer ( hazard ratio=5.208, 1.597, 1.373, 1.520, 1.464, 2.356, 95% confidence interval as 3.028-8.955, 1.231-2.072, 1.060-1.777, 1.099-2.104, 1.004-2.134, 1.385-4.009, P<0.05). Postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy was an independent protective factor for both DFS and OS after surgery for stage I gastric cancer ( hazard ratio=0.361 0.297, 95% confidence interval as 0.177-0.736, 0.131-0.674, P<0.05). (3) Prognostic analysis of patients. According to the results of multi-variate analysis, among 3 353 patients, there were significant differences in 5-year DFS rate and 10-year OS rate between patients aged <50 years and ≥50 years ( P<0.05). There were significant differences in 5-year DFS rate and 10-year OS rate among patients in TNM stage ⅠA and ⅠB ( P<0.05). There were significant differences in 5-year DFS rate and 10-year OS rate among patients in stage T1N0M0, T1N1M0, T2N0M0 ( P<0.05). There were significant differences in 5-year DFS rate and 10-year OS rate among patients with the highly, moderately, and poorly differentiated tumors ( P<0.05). There were significant differences in 5-year DFS rate and 10-year OS rate among patients with the number of lymph lodes dissected <16 and ≥16 ( P<0.05). There were significant differences in 5-year DFS rate and 10-year OS rate between patients with negative and positive vascular invasion ( P<0.05). There were significant differences in 5-year DFS rate and 10-year OS rate between patients with and without postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy ( P<0.05), among patients in stage T1N0M0, T1N1M0, T2N0M0 who received no postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy ( P<0.05). For patients in stage T1N1M0, there was no significant difference in 5-year DFS rate and 10-year OS rate between patients with and without postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy ( P>0.05).Results of stratified analysis showed that for patients aged ≥ 50 years, there were significant differences in 5-year DFS rate and 10-year OS rate between patients with and without postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy ( P<0.05). For patients in stage T2N0M0, there were significant differences in 5-year DFS rate and 10-year OS rate between patients with and without postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy ( P<0.05). For patients with positive vascular invasion, there were significant differences in 5-year DFS rate and 10-year OS rate between patients with and without postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy ( P<0.05). (4) Construction and validation of a predictive model for the efficacy of adjuvant chemotherapy. A nomogram predictive model was constructed based on the multivariate analysis results of OS and used for calculating net benefits and distribution. Among the 3 096 patients without postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy, 1 009 cases had a predicted net benefit of >5%-10%, and 250 patients had a predicted net benefit >10%. The predicted survival analysis further verified that the predicted benefit of adjuvant chemotherapy was consistent with the prognosis of patients. Conclusions:Patients with age ≥50 years, stage T2 tumors, moderately differentiated tumor, the number of lymph nodes dissected <16, positive vascular invasion have worse survival prognosis postoperative. Postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy provides better prognosis in high-risk patients. Patients in stage T1N1M0 have lower recurrence and survival risks, of whom with 1 metastatic lymph node is more suitable for follow-up rather than postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy.

Objective To explore the effects of transverse cervical artery related skin flaps in repairing skin soft tissue defects in the neck and shoulder.Methods A total of 13 patients with soft tissue defects in neck and shoulder admitted to Linyi People's Hospital from January 2018 to January 2022 were selected.The wounds of patients were repaired with transverse cervical artery related skin flaps,and the donor area was repaired with direct suturing and/or full-thick skin graft from the inguinal area.The survival,appearance and texture of the flap after surgery were recorded.The wound healing in the donor area and the survival of the grafted skin were observed.The follow-up was conducted for 5 to 12 months,and the appearance of the grafted flap and the recovery of function in the surgical area were observed.Results The flaps had good survival in the first stage after surgery,the color and texture of the flap matched well with the surrounding tissue,and the wound healing in the donor area was good.During the follow-up,the function and appearance of neck and shoulder for patients recovered well.Conclusion The advantages of transverse cervical artery related skin flaps in repairing skin soft tissue defects in the neck and shoulder is that the color and texture of the flap matched well with the surrounding tissue,with reliable blood circulation,and the appearance and postoperative function recover well,which is worthy of promotion and application in clinic.

BACKGROUND:Stem cells from human exfoliated deciduous teeth are widely used in the field of tissue repair and regeneration,but the tissue regeneration effect has limitations in practical applications.Using miRNA to intervene in the directional differentiation of stem cells from human exfoliated deciduous teeth is an important development direction fortissue repair and regeneration in the future.OBJECTIVE:To investigate the effect of miR-26b on the neurogenic and angiogenic differentiation of stem cells from human exfoliated deciduous teeth.METHODS:Dental pulp stem cells were isolated and extracted from human exfoliated deciduous teeth,and induced to differentiate into nerves and blood vessels.The expressions of neurogenic markers Nestin,NSE,βⅢ-Tubu lin,and angiogenic markers CD31,VEGFR2,ANG-1 and miR-26b were detected.Dental pulp stem cells were divided into blank control group,miR-26 overexpression group,and negative control group.RT-qPCR,cell immunofluorescence staining,and western blot assay were used to detect the expression changes of related markers of neurogenic and angiogenic induction of stem cells from human exfoliated deciduous teeth in each group.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)Stem cells from human exfoliated deciduous teeth had multi-directional differentiation potential and could differentiate into osteogenesis,adipogenesis,neurogenesis,and vasculogenesis.(2)The expression level of miR-26b increased during the neurogenic and angiogenic differentiation of stem cells from human exfoliated deciduous teeth.(3)Compared with the blank control group and negative control group,the mRNA expression of neuroblast-related genes βⅢ-Tubulin,Nestin,NSE and angiogenesis-related genes CD31,VEGFR2,and ANG-1 in stem cells from human exfoliated deciduous teeth in the miR-26b overexpression group was significantly increased(P＜0.01),βⅢ-Tubulin,Nestin,CD31,and VEGFR2 protein expression was significantly increased(P＜0.01).The above results show that overexpression of miR-26b can promote the neurogenic and angiogenic differentiation of stem cells from human exfoliated deciduous teeth.

Objective To explore the covariant network features of iron deposition in Parkinson's disease with mild cognitive impairment(PD-MCI)based on quantitative susceptibility mapping(QSM).Methods Seventy-one patients with Parkinson's disease(PD)were divided into PD-MCI group(n=37)and PD with normal cognition(PD-NC)group(n=34).The differences of edge-connection and topological property parameters of the iron deposition covariant network between the two groups were compared,respectively.Results The iron deposition covariant network edge-connection analysis showed that there were significant difference in r values of the right globus pallidus-right cerebellar dentate nucleus,right globus pallidus-left putamen,and left hippo-campus-left substantia nigra between the two groups(P＜0.05).The global topological property analysis showed that when the sparsity was 0.47 and 0.48,respectively,the Cp in PD-MCI group was significantly higher than that in PD-NC group(P＜0.05).The node topological property analysis showed that there were significant differences in the node network property parameters of the left substantia nigra,left entorhinal cortex,left precentral gyrus,left putamen,left dentate nucleus,and right orbital frontal cortex between the two groups(P＜0.05).Conclusion The changes of covariant network topological properties based on QSM may be the neuropathological mechanism in PD-MCI at the level of large-scale iron metabolism network.

This study was aimed at exploring the epidemic characteristics and spatio-temporal evolution patterns of severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome(SFTS)in Henan Province from 2011 to 2022,to provide a reference for prevention and control ef-forts.Data on SFTS in Henan Province from 2011 to 2022 were collected from the Information Management System for Infectious Dis-ease Reporting,and epidemiological characteristics and spatio-temporal evolution patterns were investigated through spatial autocorre-lation analysis,standard deviation ellipse analysis,and spatial-centered transfer curves,on a district-county basis.From 2011 to 2022,a total of 5 471 SFTS cases associated with 81 deaths were reported in Henan Province.The incidence rate showed an increasing trend(χ2trend=23.24,P<0.001),and the average annual incidence was 0.4 677/100 000.The case-fatality rate showed a decreasing trend from 2011 to 2019(χ2trend=8.86,P=0.003),but an increasing trend from 2020 to 2022(χ2trend=12.93,P<0.001).The average an-nual case-fatality rate was 1.48%.The peak incidence period was from May to July;this period accounted for 58.75%of the total cases.Females(59.39%),individuals 60-80 years old(55.40%),and farmers(96.64%)were the high prevalence groups.The disease was distributed primarily in Xinyang City,and Shangcheng County had the highest incidence rate(27.411 8/100 000).Spatial aggregation was observed in the southeastern region(Moran's I>0,P<0.001),and the disease centers were all located in Guangshan County,Xin-yang City,and showed southeast-northwest-southeast-northwest-southeast-northeast-southwest movement during the 12-year pe-riod.In conclusion,from 2011 to 2022,SFTS in Henan Province had a high incidence in May to July,and females,older people,and farmers were the high-risk groups.Spatial aggregation was observed in the southeastern region,along with spread to surrounding areas.Xinyang City is therefore a key area for the prevention and control of SFTS.

Health think tanks serve as a crucial intellectual support for the Healthy China strategy. The authors systematically analyzed the definitions, classifications, and operational status of health think tanks, categorizing them into five types: government-affiliated think tanks, university and research institute think tanks, social think tanks, hospital think tanks, and corporate think tanks. It was indicated that current health think tanks had significant room for improvement in both quantity and influence, particularly concerning deeper integration with policy decision-making and interdisciplinary collaboration. Although these think tanks played a unique role in supporting government decision-making, issues such as lagging institutional development, insufficient collaborative effectiveness, and difficulties in translating research findings into practice remained prominent. To enhance the ability of think tanks to serve the Healthy China strategy, this study proposed strategies including strengthening top-level design, improving participation mechanisms, optimizing management and evaluation systems, establishing data-sharing platforms, and deepening collaborative governance, with the aim of fostering the healthy development of China′s health think tanks.

Objective:To investigate the effect of titanium wire-absorbable suture dual line combined firm stitching technique in costal cartilage framework shaping for auricular reconstruction in congenital microtia patients.Methods:A retrospective study was conducted on 120 patients with congenital microtia who underwent auricular reconstruction surgery at the Plastic Surgery Hospital of Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences and Peking Union Medical College from January 2020 to December 2021. Among these, 86 were male and 34 were female, with an age range of 6-15 (8.5±2.1) years. All patients underwent auricular reconstruction using the expanded skin flap method, and the titanium wire-absorbable suture dual line combined firm stitching technique was used to construct a multi-layer three-dimensional autologous costal cartilage framework. Postoperative follow-up was conducted for 1 to 3 years to evaluate the morphology, stability, patient satisfaction, and occurrence of adverse reactions.Results:Of the 120 patients, 119 (99.2%) achieved primary healing. The reconstructed auricles were lifelike with clear substructures, and the long-term shape of the auricles remained stable without significant deformation. One patient developed a local skin infection and ulceration, leading to exposure of the cartilage framework, which was successfully repaired using a temporal fascia flap and free skin graft. A total of 85.8% (103/120) of the patients were satisfied with the postoperative results, 13.3% (16/120) rated the outcome as average, and 0.8% (1/120) were dissatisfied. No cases of hematoma or flap necrosis were observed in any of the patients.Conclusion:The costal cartilage framework, constructed using the titanium wire-absorbable suture dual line combined firm stitching technique, demonstrates good clinical effects for auricular reconstruction with no severe adverse reactions.

The quality of drugs is a crucial premise for ensuring the safety and effectiveness of clinical medication, while quality control during the pharmaceutical process directly affects the quality and consistency of the final product formulation. However, there is a lack of a comprehensive and scientific system for assessing and optimizing the quality control level during the manufacturing process in the field of drug quality control. Therefore, this study proposed the concept of "pharmaceutical process omics", clarified its advantages in guiding drug production, and explored in depth the research approaches, diverse analytical techniques, and broad range of applications in drug quality control. In addition, this study anticipated the broad application prospects of pharmaceutical process omics in the field of drug quality control, aiming to provide a scientific basis for the development of pharmaceutical process quality control standards.
