Objective To establish a cell bank of extrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ECC)-derived organoids and investigate the key factors influencing the organoids generation. Methods The tumor samples from patients with portal cholangiocarcinoma (pCCA) and distal cholangiocarcinoma (dCCA) were used to isolate cells, and these cells were cultured using three-dimensional (3D) technique to establish ECC organoids. Histological characteristics of the organoids were evaluated and identified through hematoxylin-eosin (HE) and immunohistochemistry stainings. The success rates of organoids generation from different tumor types were compared. And clinical characteristics of patients between successful and failure culture groups were compared. Results The success rates of organoids establishment from pCCA and dCCA were all low, with 42.4% (14/33), 51.9% (14/27), respectively. The tumor was larger in successful group than that in failure group (P＜0.001); there was no statistical difference in tumor differentiation status, microvascular invasion, and perineural invasion between the two groups. Conclusions The successful rate of ECC-derived organoids establishment is low, and larger tumor has higher successful culture rate.

Objective To analyze the law of acupoint selection and compatibility of acupuncture and moxibustion and the application law of acupuncture and moxibustion in the treatment of lactational mastitis using complex network technology.Methods The clinical research literature about acupuncture and moxibustion treatment of lactational mastitis was retrieved from CNKI,CBM,Wanfang Data,VIP and PubMed from the establishment of the databases to March 15,2025.The literature was screened according to the standards to build a prescription database of acupuncture and moxibustion treatment of lactational mastitis.SPSS Modeler 18.0 software was used to analyze association rules,and Gephi 0.9 software was used for complex network analysis.Results A total of 108 articles were included.141 acupuncture and moxibustion prescriptions were extracted,involving 74 acupoints,with a total use frequency of 677 times.The high-frequency acupoints were Jianjing,Danzhong,Rugen,Zusanli,Neiguan,etc.Specific acupoints were mainly composed of Wushu acupoints(169 times,21.10%);the acupoints were mainly distributed in the limbs(36);the most frequently used meridian was stomach meridian(168 times,24.82%).The combination of acupoints with the highest correlation was Jianjing-Neiguan-Rugen.Complex network analysis identified 22 core acupoints,with the most commonly used acupuncture method being filiform needle acupuncture(79 times).Conclusion Acupuncture and moxibustion treatment of lactational mastitis pays special attention to the selection of stomach meridian.The compatibility mode is mainly from top to bottom,and the corresponding acupoints are selected according to syndrome differentiation.

Objective:To compare the therapeutic efficacy of the dual anteromedial and anterolateral approaches versus that of the anterior midline approach in the treatment of Wahlquist type C medial tibial plateau fractures accompanied by posterior column collapse.Methods:A retrospective study was conducted to analyze the 21 patients who had been treated for Wahlquist type C medial tibial plateau fractures plus posterior column collapse at The Fourth Orthopedic Ward, The 72nd Group Army Hospital of PLA between January 2019 and August 2023. The cohort included 13 males and 8 females, with an age of (43.3±6.7) years. The left side was involved in 14 fractures and the right side in 7 ones. The patients were divided into 2 groups based on their surgical approaches: a dual-approach group ( n=13) undergoing fixation via the dual anteromedial and anterolateral approaches, and a single-approach group ( n=8) undergoing fixation via the anterior midline approach. Comparative parameters included operative time, intraoperative blood loss, fracture healing time, quality of fracture reduction, medial proximal tibial angle (MPTA), incision complications, postoperative bone mass reduction quality (evaluated according to the Rasmussen anatomical criteria for tibial condyle fracture reduction), lateral tibial plateau instability, incidence of genu varum, and post-traumatic arthritis. Functional recovery of the lower limb joints was assessed at the final follow-up using the Merchant criteria. Results:No statistically significant differences were observed in the baseline characteristics between the 2 groups preoperatively, indicating comparability ( P>0.05). All patients were followed up for a mean duration of (38.1±11.3) months. The postoperative MPTA in the dual-approach group (86.8°±0.8°) was significantly larger than that in the single-approach group (85.5°±0.9°) ( P<0.05). Genu varum occurred in 1 patient in the dual-approach group and in 4 patients in the single-approach group, while lateral tibial plateau instability was observed in 1 patient in the dual-approach group and in 4 patients in the single-approach group, showing statistically significant differences between the 2 groups ( P<0.05). No statistically significant differences were found between the 2 groups regarding operative time, intraoperative blood loss, fracture healing time, quality of fracture reduction, incidence of incision complications, or incidence of post-traumatic arthritis ( P>0.05). At the final follow-up, no statistically significant difference was observed in the functional recovery of the lower limb joints assessed by the Merchant criteria between the 2 groups ( P>0.05). Conclusion:In the treatment of Wahlquist type C medial tibial plateau fractures accompanied by posterior column collapse, compared with the single anterior midline approach, the dual anteromedial and anterolateral approaches can restore more effectively the MPTA, and reduce the incidences of genu varum and lateral tibial plateau instability.

Objective To examine resting-state whole-brain network connectivity in children with Chinese developmental dyslexia(DD)and typically developing(TD)children using functional near-infrared spectroscopy(fNIRS).Methods From November to December,2024,19 DD children aged six to twelve years in Children's Hospital of Fudan University were enrolled,along with 18 TD children matching age and sex.Regions of interest included frontal cortex(FC),temporal lobe(TL),occipital lobe(OL)and parietal lobe(PL).Resting-state data were acquired by fNIRS for five minutes in both groups.Functional connectivity strength was calculated at rest,and between-group differences in connectivity strength and brain networks were compared,based on the time series of oxyhe-moglobin concentration.Results The whole-brain functional connectivity strength was higher in DD group than in TD group(t=2.100,P<0.05).Connectivity between the right OL-right FC(t=2.426,P<0.05),right OL-left FC(t=2.483,P<0.05),right TL-right FC(t=2.568,P<0.05)and right TL-left FC(t=2.304,P<0.05)were stonger in DD group than in TD group.The major regions exhibiting differences of whole-brain connectivity between two groups were the right dorsolateral prefrontal cortex,right visual association cortex,right frontal cortex,left orbitofrontal cortex,left visual association cortex,left primary visual cortex and right primary motor cortex.Conclusion Children with DD exhibited significantly stronger connectivity in the right occipital and temporal lobes,as well as between these regions and the prefrontal cortex,suggesting possible right-hemispheric compensation for insufficiency in the left-hemisphere reading network.

Objective To investigate anxious and depressive emotions in patients underwent cervical cancer surgery and to analyze its influencing factors.Methods A total of 304 patients who underwent primary cervical cancer surgery in Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital,Fudan University from Oct 2018 to Jun 2021,were recruited to evaluate the clinical effect based on cervical cancer-patient reported outcome 137 scale(CC-PRO137 scale).This study focused on dimensions of depressive and anxious emotions within this scale and explored their influencing factors.Results The average scores of their depressive and anxious emotions within half a year after surgery were 4.141±0.798 and 4.020±0.616,respectively;and the average scores of depressive and anxious emotions more than one year after surgery were 4.250±0.802 and 4.097±0.613,respectively.By using statistical methods including analysis of variance and t test,it was found that there were statistically significant differences in the scores of depression and anxiety among cervical cancer patients under different postoperative adjuvant treatments and at different postoperative time points(P<0.05).However,there were no statistically significant differences in the scores of depression and anxiety among patients with different ages,surgical methods,and clinical stages of cervical cancer(P>0.05).Conclusion Patients underwent cervical cancer surgery may suffer varying degree of depressive and anxious emotions,and the main influencing factors are different adjuvant treatments and the length of time for postsurgical recovery.Medical practitioners should strengthen comfort and care for patients with cervical cancer,especially those who receive chemotherapy and radiotherapy treatments and are in the primary stage after the surgery.Formulating positive intervention measures can effectively reduce the psychological pain of patients and safeguard their physical and mental health.

Background::Hypothermia therapy has been suggested to attenuate myocardial necrosis; however, the clinical implementation as a valid therapeutic strategy has failed, and new approaches are needed to translate into clinical applications. This study aimed to assess the feasibility, safety, and efficacy of a novel selective intracoronary hypothermia (SICH) device in mitigating myocardial reperfusion injury.Methods::This study comprised two phases. The first phase of the SICH was performed in a normal porcine model for 30 minutes ( n = 5) to evaluate its feasibility. The second phase was conducted in a porcine myocardial infarction (MI) model of myocardial ischemia/reperfusion which was performed by balloon occlusion of the left anterior descending coronary artery for 60 minutes and maintained for 42 days. Pigs in the hypothermia group ( n = 8) received hypothermia intervention onset reperfusion for 30 minutes and controls ( n = 8) received no intervention. All animals were followed for 42 days. Cardiac magnetic resonance analysis (five and 42 days post-MI) and a series of biomarkers/histological studies were performed. Results::The average time to lower temperatures to a steady state was 4.8 ± 0.8 s. SICH had no impact on blood pressure or heart rate and was safely performed without complications by using a 3.9 F catheter. Interleukin-6 (IL-6), tumor necrosis factor-α, C-reactive protein (CRP), and brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) were lower at 60 min post perfusion in pigs that underwent SICH as compared with the control group. On day 5 post MI/R, edema, intramyocardial hemorrhage, and microvascular obstruction were reduced in the hypothermia group. On day 42 post MI/R, the infarct size, IL-6, CRP, BNP, and matrix metalloproteinase-9 were reduced, and the ejection fraction was improved in pigs that underwent SICH.Conclusions::The SICH device safely and effectively reduced the infarct size and improved heart function in a pig model of MI/R. These beneficial effects indicate the clinical potential of SICH for treatment of myocardial reperfusion injury.

Objective This study aimed to investigate the potential relationship between urinary metals copper (Cu), arsenic (As), strontium (Sr), barium (Ba), iron (Fe), lead (Pb) and manganese (Mn) and grip strength. Methods We used linear regression models, quantile g-computation and Bayesian kernel machine regression (BKMR) to assess the relationship between metals and grip strength.Results In the multimetal linear regression, Cu (β=-2.119), As (β=-1.318), Sr (β=-2.480), Ba (β=0.781), Fe (β= 1.130) and Mn (β=-0.404) were significantly correlated with grip strength (P < 0.05). The results of the quantile g-computation showed that the risk of occurrence of grip strength reduction was -1.007 (95％ confidence interval:-1.362, -0.652; P < 0.001) when each quartile of the mixture of the seven metals was increased. Bayesian kernel function regression model analysis showed that mixtures of the seven metals had a negative overall effect on grip strength, with Cu, As and Sr being negatively associated with grip strength levels. In the total population, potential interactions were observed between As and Mn and between Cu and Mn (Pinteractions of 0.003 and 0.018, respectively).Conclusion In summary, this study suggests that combined exposure to metal mixtures is negatively associated with grip strength. Cu, Sr and As were negatively correlated with grip strength levels, and there were potential interactions between As and Mn and between Cu and Mn.
