Objective:To investigate the efficacy of preserving the urethral ridge during Holmium laser enucleation of the prostate(HoLEP)in preventing postoperative retrograde ejaculation and to evaluate its impact on sexual function.Methods:This prospective cohort study enrolled patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia(BPH)who underwent HoLEP at Xiamen Haicang Hospital(Haicang Hospital Affiliated to Xiamen Medical College)from November 2022 to June 2024. Inclusion criteria were as follows:diagnosis of BPH confirmed by color Doppler ultrasound;International Prostate Symptom Score(IPSS)> 7;maximum urinary flow rate(Q max)< 15 ml/s;prostate-specific antigen(PSA)< 4 ng/ml;and an active sexual life with intact antegrade ejaculation. Exclusion criteria included neurogenic bladder,active urinary tract infection(UTI),and other relevant conditions. Patients were grouped based on the operating surgeon's comprehensive judgment during surgery,considering the degree of prostatic median lobe hyperplasia(preserved if hyperplasia was mild,not preserved if severe). The EP-HoLEP group underwent “tunnel technique” enucleation of the middle lobe hyperplasia with preservation of the urethral ridge,while the HoLEP group underwent conventional prostate enucleation. Primary outcomes included postoperative retrograde ejaculation rate,International Index of Erectile Function(IIEF),Ejaculation Projection Score(EPS),IPSS,Quality of Life Score(QOL),Q max,post-void residual urine volume(PVR),operative time,and postoperative complications. Univariate analysis was used to screen potential influencing factors,followed by multivariate logistic regression to identify independent predictors. Results:Seventy patients with BPH were enrolled,with 35 in each group. Baseline characteristics,including age[(69.97 ± 5.14)years vs.(72.34 ± 5.08)years],body mass index(BMI)[(22.99 ± 1.41)kg/m2 vs.(23.16 ± 1.38)kg/m2],prostate volume[47.4(31.9,59.4)ml vs. 44.2(34.9,61.7)ml],PSA[4.0(1.9,8.2)ng/ml vs. 3.1(2.6,5.0)ng/ml],hemoglobin[(130.09 ± 12.92)g/L vs.(125.69 ± 17.26)g/L],IPSS[17(10,22)vs. 17(10,27)],QOL[5(4,5)vs. 4(4,5)],Q max[7.5(6.3,9.1)ml/s vs. 7.0(5.9,8.9)ml/s]and PVR[65(22,167)ml vs. 60(16,150)ml]showed no statistically significant differences between the two groups( P > 0.05). Operative time[65(55,76)min vs. 63(55,73)min],postoperative 2-hour hemoglobin[(124.17 ± 14.89)g/L vs.(120.11 ± 15.44)g/L],and postoperative hospital stay[(3.94 ± 1.89)days vs.(3.66 ± 1.53)days]were also comparable between the two groups( P > 0.05). No significant difference was observed in the decrease in IIEF score[1(0,2)vs. 2(0,6), P = 0.203]. EPS at 3 months[2(1,3)vs. 1(0,2), P < 0.001]and at 6 months[2(1,2)vs. 1(0,2), P < 0.001]postoperatively were significantly higher in the EP-HoLEP group. The incidence of postoperative UTI did not differ significantly[5.7%(2/35)vs. 2.9%(1/35), P = 1.00]. Two cases of urinary retention occurred after catheter removal in the EP-HoLEP group,while none occurred in the HoLEP group. No blood transfusions or urethral strictures were reported in either group. The incidence of retrograde ejaculation was significantly lower in the EP-HoLEP group[28.6%(10/35)vs. 68.6%(24/35), P <0.001]. Multivariable logistic regression analysis showed that urethral ridge preservation was an independent protective factor for retrograde ejaculation after HoLEP( OR = 0.159,95% CI 0.053 ? 0.476, P = 0.001). Conclusions:Urethral ridge preservation during HoLEP is safe and feasible,significantly reduces retrograde ejaculation,and preserves ejaculatory function,though it offers limited erectile function preservation. This approach is suitable for middle-aged,young,or younger elderly patients who prioritize ejaculatory quality,and provides clinical evidence for surgical optimization.

Background::The disease burdens for endometrial cancer (EC) vary across different countries and geographical regions and change every year. Herein, we reported the updated results of the Global Burden of Disease Study 2019 on EC with respect to age-standardized incidence and mortality from 1990 to 2019.Methods::The annual percentage change (APC) of incidence and mortality was evaluated using joinpoint regression analysis to examine the temporal trends during the same timeframe in terms of the global landscape, different sociodemographic indices (SDI), and geographic regions. The relationship between Human Development Index (HDI) and incidence and mortality was additionally explored.Results::The age-standardized incidence rates (ASIRs) revealed a significant average global elevation by 0.5% per year (95% confidence interval [CI], 0.3–0.7; P <0.001). The age-standardized mortality rates (ASMRs), in contrast, fell by an average of 0.8% per year (95% CI, ?1.0 to ?0.7; P <0.001) worldwide. The ASIRs and ASMRs for EC varied across different SDIs and geographical regions. We noted four temporal trends and a significant reduction by 0.5% per year since 2010 in the ASIR, whereas we detected six consecutively decreasing temporal trends in ASMR during the entire period. Notably, the estimated APCs were significantly positively correlated with HDIs (ρ = 0.22; 95% CI, 0.07–0.35; P = 0.003) with regard to incident cases in 2019. Conclusions::Incidence rates for EC reflected a significant increase overall (although we observed a decline since 2010), and the death rates declined consecutively from 1990 to 2019. We posit that more precise strategies can be tailored and then implemented based on the distinct age-standardized incidence and mortality burden in different geographical areas.

OBJECTIVE To prepare C-phycocyanin nanoparticles (CPC-NPs) and evaluate the in vitro mechanism of CPC- NPs on acute lung injury induced by lipopolysaccharide (LPS) combined with seawater. METHODS Ion crosslinking method was used to prepare CPC-NPs using CPC as the drug, carboxymethyl chitosan (CMCS) as the carrier, and CaCl2 as the crosslinking agent. The basic characterization of CPC-NPs was carried out. Mouse alveolar type Ⅱ epithelial cells MLE-12 and macrophages RAW264.7 were divided into 7 groups: normal group (Con group), model group (Mod group), blank NPs group, CPC-NPs 30, 60, 120 and 240 μg/mL groups. Except for the Con group, all other groups were treated with a combination of 10 μg/mL LPS and 25% seawater for 6 hours. After modeling, each treatment group was treated with corresponding drugs for 24 hours. The levels of malondialdehyde (MDA), total antioxidant capacity (T-AOC), superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT), and glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px) in MLE-12 cells, as well as the expression levels of B-cell lymphoma-2 (Bcl-2), Bcl-2 associated X protein (Bax), caspase-3 protein and mRNA, CAT and glutathione S-transferase (GST) mRNA were determined. The levels of interleukin- 1β (IL-1β), tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) and IL-6 in RAW264.7 cells, as well as the expression levels of NOD-like receptor thermal protein domain associated protein 3 (NLRP3), cleaved caspase-1 protein, and mRNA expressions of IL-1β,TNF-α, IL-6 and inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) were all detected. RESULTS The prepared CPC-NPs had particle size of (675.69±64.58) nm, Zeta potential of (-20.11± E-mail:zhangleifang1986@163.com 0.98) mV, polydispersity coefficient of 0.455±0.010 (n=3);entrapment efficiency of 35.60%, and drug loading of 16.13%;CPC-NPs had regular spherical shapes, where the drug could be sustainably released for more than 30 hours. Compared with Mod group, the levels of T-AOC, SOD, CAT (excluding the 30 μg/mL group of CPC-NPs) and GSH-Px, mRNA expressions of CAT and GST, as well as the Bcl-2/Bax protein ratio and mRNA ratio were significantly increased in MLE-12 cells of different concentration groups of CPC-NPs, while MDA levels and caspase-3 protein and mRNA expression were significantly reduced (P<0.01 or P<0.05). Compared with Mod group, the levels of IL-1β, TNF-α and IL-6, NLRP3 and cleaved-caspase-1 protein expressions, as well as the mRNA expressions of IL-1β, TNF-α, IL-6 and iNOS in RAW264.7 cells of different concentration groups of CPC-NPs were significantly reduced (P<0.01 or P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS CPC-NPs with lung targeting and sustained release property were prepared successfully, which can alleviate acute lung injury induced by LPS combined with seawater through antioxidant stress, inhibiting cell apoptosis and inflammatory response.

Pancreatic duct stone is a sequel of chronic pancreatitis and may be found in the main ducts,side branches or parenchyma.These stones obstruct the pancreatic ducts and produce ductal hypertension,which leads to pain,the cardinal feature of CP.Surgical operation has been the preferred treatment of pancreatic duct stones in many domestic and external pancreatic medical centers.Lithotomy by longitudinal pancreatic duct incision and Roux-en-Y anastomosis of pancreatic duct to jejunum is the main and effective surgical procedure,while micro-surgery was also rational for the treatment of pancreatic duct stones.However,further studies with a larger sample size and longer follow-up duration are needed to improve the surgical technique and verify our initial results.
