BACKGROUND:One-hole split endoscope as a new type of endoscopic technique is suitable for the treatment of far lateral lumbar disc disease.However,there are few research data on L5/S1,which has a very low incidence of far lateral lumbar disc herniation at home and abroad,and there is no detailed image anatomical data describing the one-hole split endoscope treatment of L5/S1 far lateral lumbar disc herniation. OBJECTIVE:Through the three-dimensional image reconstruction,the bony landmarks were determined to accurately locate the positional relationship between the L5 outlet nerve root,the L5/S1 intervertebral space and other structures.One-hole split endoscope via posterolateral approach was used to accurately,safely and effectively decompress the L5 outlet nerve root and treat the L5/S1 far lateral lumbar disc herniation. METHODS:Twenty-nine patients with L5/S1 unilateral far lateral lumbar disc herniation who met the inclusion and exclusion criteria were selected,including 12 males and 17 females at the age of 48-74 years.The lumbar CT data of the patients were imported into Mimics 21.0 software to reconstruct the three-dimensional lumbar model.Measurement of L5/S1 related parameters:(1)Measurement on the sagittal plane at the intersection(H)of the lower edge of the transverse process and the lateral edge of the isthmus:The vertical distance between H and the upper and lower edges of L5 outlet nerve root(a1,a2);the vertical distance between H and the lower endplate of L5 and the upper endplate of S1(b1,b2);vertical distance from the lower edge of the pedicle from H to L5(c).(2)Horizontal distance between the left and right sides of the sagittal surface where the medial wall of the pedicle was located from H to L5(d).(3)The horizontal distance from H to the left and right side of the sagittal plane where the lateral margin of the dura was located(e).(4)Horizontal distance(f)between the left and right sides of the sagittal plane at the outermost edge of the lower endplate from H to L5.(5)Measurements were made on the sagittal plane where the outermost edge of the lower endplate of L5:The vertical distance between the cross section of H and the upper and lower edges of L5 outlet nerve root(g1,g2);vertical distance(h1,h2)between the transverse section of H and the lower endplate of L5 and the upper endplate of S1,respectively;(6)anteroposterior horizontal distance from H to L5 in the coronal plane where the last edge of the nerve root exits(i);(7)anteroposterior horizontal distance from the highest point of the posterior margin of the sacral wing to the last margin of the inferior endplate of L5 in the coronal plane(j). RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)There was no significant difference in the relevant measurement parameters between men and women(P>0.05).(2)a1,a2,b1,b2,c,d,e,f,h1,h2,g1,g2,i,and j on the affected side were not significantly different from the healthy side(P>0.05).(3)There was no significant difference between a1 and c(P>0.05),indicating that the lower edge of the pedicle was the upper edge of the L5 outlet nerve root;the L5 outlet nerve root was close to the lower edge of the pedicle and ran anterolateral behind the L5 vertebral body,and H was located above the L5 outlet nerve root.(4)With H as the bony marker point,it was not necessary to probe upward or to remove the isthmus,but only to grind part of the bone downward and laterally to reveal the L5 outlet nerve root and vertebral space,and to have enough safe distance to avoid damage to the dural membrane to complete exploration and decompression of the lateral recess and foraminal region.(5)The surgeon could operate in the sagittal plane where the most lateral edge of the L5 inferior endplate was located,and in the"rectangular area"formed by the L5 transverse process and the sacral wing.The closer to the medial and inferior area(Kambin triangle),the safer the operation was.(6)It is suggested that using H as the bony landmark point to locate the L5 outlet nerve root and intervertebral space through one-hole split endoscope via posterolateral approach can achieve accurate,safe and effective decompression of L5/S1 far lateral lumbar disc herniation.

P-glycoprotein(P-gp)is an ATP-dependent efflux transporter that is distributed in many tissues and organs.P-gp can selectively pump endogenous substrates and exogenous chemicals from the cell to the outside of the cell to maintain a stable endo-environment.However,it meanwhile restricts the entry of therapeutic drug into tissues and organs,and in particular,mediates the multidrug resistance of tumor cells to chemotherapeutic drugs.Therefore,understanding the localization of P-gp in different tissues and organs may be an important breakthrough point for disease treatment.In this paper,we mainly review the molecular structure,transport mechanism,localization,and regulation of P-gp in different tissues and organs,providing reference for the subsequent treatment of diseases.

ObjectiveTo investigate the association between albumin （Alb） and recompensation by comparing recompensation rate between hepatitis B/C virus-related decompensated liver cirrhosis patients with different Alb levels， and to provide guidance for the identification and management of high-risk patients in clinical practice. MethodsRelated clinical data were collected from 734 patients with hepatitis B/C virus-related decompensated liver cirrhosis who attended The Third People’s Hospital of Kunming from January 1， 2016 to December 31， 2022， and they were divided into three groups based on the level of Alb. The linear regression analysis and chi-square test were used for trend tests. The Kaplan-Meier curve was plotted for the cumulative incidence rate of recompensation in the three groups， and the log-rank test was used for comparison between groups. A Cox proportional-hazards regression model analysis was used to investigate the association between Alb and recompensation in patients with hepatitis B/C virus-related decompensated liver cirrhosis. ResultsAmong the 734 patients with hepatitis B/C virus-related decompensated liver cirrhosis， 270 achieved recompensation， with a recompensation rate of 36.8%. All patients had a median Alb level of 29.90 （25.90 — 34.80） g/L on admission， and according to the level of Alb， they were divided into <25.9 g/L group with 177 patients， 25.9 — 34.8 g/L group with 377 patients， and >34.8 g/L group with 180 patients； 36 patients （20.3%） in the <25.9 g/L group， 138 （36.6%） in the 25.9 — 34.8 g/L group， and 96 （53.3%） in the >34.8 g/L group achieved recompensation， and the recompensation rate increased with the increase in Alb level （χ²=41.730， P<0.001）. After adjustment for all confounding factors， compared with the <25.9 g/L group， there was a significant increase in the incidence rate of recompensation in the 25.9 — 34.8 g/L group （hazard ratio ［HR］=1.842， 95% confidence interval ［CI］： 1.274 — 2.663） and the >34.8 g/L group （HR=2.336， 95% CI： 1.575 — 3.463）. The Kaplan-Meier survival analysis showed that there was a significant difference in the cumulative incidence rate of recompensation between the three groups （χ²=41.632， P<0.001）. ConclusionAlb level is an influencing factor for recompensation in patients with hepatitis B/C virus-related decompensated liver cirrhosis， and the recompensation rate increases with the increase in Alb level.

Objective: To investigate the impact of tumor necrosis factor ligand superfamily member 13(TNFSF13) derived from M2 macrophages on temozolomide(TMZ) resistanceviaregulating interferon regulatory factor 8(IRF8) in glioblastoma(GBM) cells. Methods: Immunohistochemistry(IHC) was used to detect the expression of TNFSF13 in normal brain tissues and GBM tissues. ELISA was used to measure the expression of TNFSF13 in the conditioned media(CM) of M0-type macrophages and M2-type macrophages. M0-CM and M2-CM were used to culture U251 sensitive(U251/S) and resistant(U251/R) cells. The TMZ treatment group was also treated with 800 μmol/L TMZ. The U251/R cells were divided into the following groups: con group, M2vector-CM group, M2vector-CM+TMZ group, M2TNFSF13-CM group, M2TNFSF13-CM+TMZ group, si-IRF8 group, and si-IRF8+M2TNFSF13-CM group. CCK-8 assay was used to detect cell viability and calculate the IC50value. Transwell assay was used to detect cell invasion. Flow cytometry was used to detect apoptosis. Western blot was used to detect the expression of IRF8. Nude mouse xenograft models were constructed and the nude mice were divided into the following groups: U251+M2si-NCgroup, U251+M2si-TNFSF13group, U251+M2si-NC+TMZ group, U251+M2si-TNFSF13+TMZ group. The tumor volume and mass of each group were measured, and IHC was used to detect the expression of TNFSF13 and CD206 in tumor tissues of each group. Results: Compared with adjacent tissues and M0-CM, the expression of TNFSF13 was up-regulated in cancer tissues and M2-CM. Compared with the M0-CM group, the IC50value of TMZ and the number of cell invasions in U251/S and U251/R cells in the M2-CM group significantly increased(allP<0.05). Overexpression of TNFSF13 in M2 macrophages could promote the IC50value of TMZ in U251/R cells, promote cell invasion, and inhibit cell apoptosis(allP<0.05). Overexpression of TNFSF13 promoted the expression of IRF8, and knocking down IRF8 could attenuate the TMZ resistance of U251/R mediated by overexpression of TNFSF13.In vivostudies showed that knocking down TNFSF13 alone or combined with TMZ treatment significantly inhibited tumor growth and reduced the expression of TNFSF13 and CD206. Conclusion TNFSF13 derived from M2 macrophages promotes TMZ resistance in GBM cells by activating IRF8.

Objective:To develop and validate a model to predict the risk of malnutrition in patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma receiving concurrent chemoradiotherapy. Methods:From April 2022 to August 2023, 430 patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma who were admitted to the department of radiotherapy of the first affiliated hospital of Guangxi medical university in Nanning were conveniently selected as the study subjects, and they were divided into the modelling group (300 cases) and the internal validation group (130 cases) in the internal validation group in the ratio of 7:3, and 61 patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma admitted to the affiliated cancer hospital of Guangxi medical university in Nanning City were selected as the external validation group. Logistic regression was used to establish the risk prediction model and draw nomograms,Hosmer-Lemeshow, calibration curve and ROC were used to verify the goodness of fit and predictive power of the model, and clinical decision curve was used to assess the clinical utility. Results:Logistic regression analysis showed that skeletal muscle mass index, self-rated anxiety scale score, Pittsburgh sleep quality questionnaire score, Chinese diet pagoda score, regular exercise, and digestive symptom groups were the influencing factors for malnutrition in patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma receiving concurrent chemoradiotherapy. In the modelling group, the area under the ROC curve was 0.853 (95％CI:0.81 ～ 0.89), the maximum Youden was 0.600, and the corresponding specificity was 0.764 and the sensitivity was 0.836. The Hosmer-Lemeshow test=4.040 and P=0.853 indicated that the model had good predictive ability. Calibration curve of the calibration showed that the predictive effect of the model matched actual probability well, with an average absolute error was 0.024. When the threshold probability of the clinical decision curve is 0.05 ～ 0.85, the clinical response rate is higher. The area under the operating curve of the subjects in the internal validation group was 0.891, the sensitivity was 77.36％, the specificity was 89.61％, and the practical application accuracy was 84.62％. The area under the operating curve of the subjects in the external validation group was 0.886, the sensitivity was 76.00％, the specificity was 83.33％, and the overall accuracy was 80.33％. Conclusion:The risk prediction model constructed in this study has a good effect, which can effectively predict the incidence of malnutrition in patients receiving concurrent radiotherapy and chemotherapy for nasopharyngeal carcinoma, and provide a reference for clinical staff to formulate and implement nutritional interventions.

Objective:To investigate the value of fetal heart quantification (fetal HQ) in assessing ventricular function of fetuses with small-for-gestational-age (SGA) and fetal growth restriction (FGR).Methods:A total of 152 singleton pregnancies with estimated fetal weight (EFW) or abdominal circumference less than the 10th percentile in the Third Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University were prospectively selected from August 2022 to September 2023, where fetal EFW or abdominal circumference were in the 3rd to 9th percentile with normal Doppler findings were classified as the SGA group ( n=79), and the rest as the FGR group ( n=73). In the same period, 161 cases of normal single fetuses were matched as the control group.Based on the gestational week in which FGR occurred, the FGR group were categorized into the early-onset group (<32 weeks, n=46) and the late-onset group (≥32 weeks, n=27), and fetuses in the FGR group with absent end-diastolic velocity of the umbilical artery were defined as severe FGR ( n=11), and the rest as mild FGR ( n=62). Fetal ventricular fractional area change (FAC), global longitudinal strain (GLS), longitudinal fractional shortening (LFS) and 24-segment fractional shortening (FS) were obtained by fetal HQ. The cardiac systolic function between groups were compared, the correlations between each parameter and gestational week were analyzed, the inter-observer and intra-observer repeatability tests were performed. Results:Compared with the control group, ventricular FAC, LFS, and GLS were lower in the SGA and the FGR group, right ventricular FS of segments 9-24 were reduced in the SGA group, and left ventricular FS of segments 10-19, 21-24 and right ventricular FS of segments 18-24 were reduced in the FGR group, the differences were statistically significant (all P<0.05). Left ventricular GLS, LFS and right ventricular FAC, GLS, LFS, FS of segments 1-14 were lower in the severe FGR group than in the mild FGR group, the differences were statistically significant (all P<0.05). The values of left ventricular GLS and LFS were higher in the early-onset FGR group than in the late-onset FGR group, the differences were statistically significant (all P<0.05). The ROC showed that the ventricular systolic function parameters predicted adverse perinatal outcomes with an AUC>0.6 (all P<0.05). Left ventricular GLS and right ventricular partial-segments FS were no correlations with gestational week in the FGR group (-0.3< rs<0.3, all P<0.05). There was no correlation between the parameters and gestational week in the SGA group (all P>0.05). The inter-observer and intra-observer intraclass correlation coefficients (ICC) were >0.75, with good reproducibility. Conclusions:Fetal HQ can quantitatively assess the changes of ventricular function in SGA and FGR fetuses, and the ventricular overall, longitudinal and localized contractile function in SGA and FGR fetuses are reduced, and abnormal ventricular systolic function is associated with adverse perinatal outcomes.

High flow nasal cannula（HFNC）is a novel oxygen therapy developed in recent years，and has been successfully used in pediatric diseases such as bronchiolitis and pneumonia.Although there has been a lack of clinical application guidelines in pediatrics，it has been increasingly applied to the treatment of exacerbations of bronchial asthma.This review focused on efficacy，application timing，complications and parameters adjustment of HFNC in children with asthma exacerbation，so as to further guide the clinical use.

Objective:To assess the effect of mild intraventricular hemorrhage（IVH）on the early motor development of infants at high risk of brain injury,and to guide the intervention according to its characteristics.Methods:A retrospective cohort study was conducted to select neonates discharged from the Neonatal Unit of Xi 'an Children 's Hospital from February 1，2022 to March 31，2023，with one or more high-risk factors of brain injury.The patients were assigned to low-grade IVH group and no IVH group according to ultrasound diagnosis.The research subjects exclucled other brain injury diseases besides mild IVH.Motor development was assessed using test of infant motor performance(TIMP)，reflecting performance in head control，auditory and visual responses，defensive movements，trunk movements，limb movements，and more.Both groups completed TIMP assessment between discharge and 16 weeks of the corrected age(CA).The differences of TIMP scores between two groups were compared . Results:A total of 329 neonates at high risk for brain injury were recruited，including 98 cases with grade Ⅰ-Ⅱ IVH（low-grade IVH group）diagnosed through brain ultrasonography and 231 controls(no IVH group).The Z scores of TIMP in the low-grade IVH group were lower than that in no IVH group（-0.25 ±0.87 vs.0.03 ±0.71， P=0.015）.The risk factors of brain injury were matched for further comparison.At CA2-5 weeks，the scores in low-grade IVH group of TIMP total scores（74.10 ±12.28 vs.84.24 ±7.71），observation items（10.57 ±1.47 vs.11.24 ±1.29），elicitation（63.17 ±12.13 vs.73.00 ±7.36），sitting（9.14 ±2.90 vs.11.65 ±3.26），supine（22.07 ±4.73 vs.24.79 ±3.55），prone position（10.35 ±3.74 vs.12.82 ±3.15）and lateral position（4.00 ±2.85 vs.5.48 ±2.13）were significantly lower than those in no IVH group（ P<0.05）.At CA6-9 weeks，the scores in low-grade IVH group of sitting position（10.44 ±4.01 vs.12.96 ±3.02），supine position（24.04 ±4.60 vs.26.83 ±3.53），lateral position（4.83 ±2.53 vs.6.25 ±2.6）were significantly lower than those in no IVH group（ P<0.05）.At CA12-15 weeks，the low-grade IVH group showed significant differences in TIMP total score（104.00 ±12.98 vs.114.10 ±13.16），elicitation（92.00 ±12.64 vs.102.00 ±13.10），sitting（17.00 ±3.50 vs.19.13 ±3.55）and lateral position（7.35 ±2.14 vs.9.00 ±2.37）compared with those from no IVH group（ P<0.05）. Conclusion:Mild intraventricular hemorrhage affected the early motor development of high-risk infants with brain injury，mainly manifested as a lag in the ability of head control at CA2-5 weeks，and the trend continued until CA12-15 weeks.Early monitoring of motor ability and intervention of head control ability should be carried out in high-risk children with mild intraventricular hemorrhage.

The structure and biological function of CXCL12/CXCR4 are the basis of physiological and pathological function.Combination of HIV-1 envelope protein and CXCR4 will promote the entry of virus into host cells.CXCL12 can reduce the number of CXCR4 through rapid endocytosis and inhibit the replication and transmission of HIV.The interaction of CXCL12/CXCR4 axis with in-flammation and autophagy plays an important role in HIV infection.Previous research has found that gene expression profiles of differ-ent TCM syndromes of acquired immunedeficiency syndrome(AIDS)are different.CXCR4 has different expression in AIDS,lung and spleen qi deficiency syndrome,Qi Yin deficiency syndrome and dampness heat syndrome,which is related to chemokine signaling pathway;the differential gene CXCR4 in peripheral blood of AIDS patients with lung and spleen qi deficiency syndrome is related to au-tophagy process.According to the intervention of Yiaikang Capsule,CXCR4 expression is increased,indicating that Yiaikang Capsule can regulate the expression of autophagy related genes.Research on the role of CXCL12/CXCR4 in TCM syndromes of AIDS is condu-cive to better play the therapeutic advantages of TCM and provide a new direction for gene targeted therapy.
