Mechanical pain is one of the most common causes of clinical pain, but there remains a lack of effective treatment for debilitating mechanical and chronic forms of neuropathic pain. Recently, neurotoxin GsMTx4, a selective mechanosensitive (MS) channel inhibitor, has been found to be effective, while the underlying mechanism remains elusive. Here, with multiple rodent pain models, we demonstrated that a GsMTx4-based 17-residue peptide, which we call P10581, was able to reduce mechanical hyperalgesia and neuropathic pain. The analgesic effects of P10581 can be as strong as morphine but is not toxic in animal models. The anti-hyperalgesic effect of the peptide was resistant to naloxone (an μ-opioid receptor antagonist) and showed no side effects of morphine, including tolerance, motor impairment, and conditioned place preference. Pharmacological inhibition of TRPV4 by P10581 in a heterogeneous expression system, combined with the use of Trpv4 knockout mice indicates that TRPV4 channels may act as the potential target for the analgesic effect of P10581. Our study identified a potential drug for curing mechanical pain and exposed its mechanism.

Objective:To investigate the status quo of psychological contracts and influencing factors among members of the "1+N" family doctor teams in Shenzhen and to explore the impact of psychological contracts on job burnout.Methods:This cross-sectional study was conducted from September 30 to October 31, 2022 among 361 members of 92 family doctor teams from 92 community health service centers which provided family doctor team service in Shenzhen city. A self-designed general information questionnaire, an employee psychological contract questionnaire (including organizational responsibility and personal responsibility dimensions), and a job burnout scale (including emotional exhaustion, depersonalization, and personal accomplishment dimensions) were used in the study. T-tests, one-way ANOVA, Pearson correlation analysis, and multiple linear regression analysis were used to analyze the influencing factors of psychological contracts and job burnout.Results:Among 361 respondents, there were 299 females (82.8%) and 62 males (17.2%), and a higher proportion of general practitioners (37.5%, 129/361) and nurses (41.8%, 151/361). The total score of psychological contracts among the 361 respondents was (141.6±19.5), with organizational responsibility scoring (70.6±11.2) and personal responsibility scoring (71.0±9.3). On the job burnout scale, emotional exhaustion scored (17.89±6.82), depersonalization scored (6.51±2.54), and personal accomplishment scored (30.95±5.70). General practitioners scored lower in organizational responsibility and personal responsibility compared to other members ( F=7.341,3.119, all P<0.05), and higher in emotional exhaustion and depersonalization ( F=7.637, 2.415, all P<0.05). Members with≤5 years of work experience scored lower in personal responsibility and personal accomplishment ( F=3.656, 4.205, all P<0.05). Correlation analysis showed that scores of organizational responsibility and personal responsibility were negatively correlated with levels of emotional exhaustion and depersonalization ( r=-0.618, -0.526, all P<0.01), ( r=-0.404, -0.393, all P<0.01), and positively correlated with personal accomplishment ( r=0.500, 0.558, all P<0.01). Multiple linear regression analysis indicated that organizational responsibility negatively affected emotional exhaustion and depersonalization ( β=-0.554, -0.274, all P<0.01), and positively affected personal accomplishment ( β=0.172, P<0.05). Personal responsibility positively affected personal accomplishment ( β=0.404, P<0.01). Conclusions:The study demonstrates that general practitioners in family doctor teams in Shenzhen city have lower psychological contract levels and are more prone to emotional exhaustion and depersonalization; members with≤5 years of work experience have lower personal responsibility and accomplishment. The results indicate that enhancing organizational responsibility can reduce job burnout of members in family doctor teams.

Objective:
To prospectively compare single-shot (SS) echo-planar imaging (EPI) and field-of-view optimized and constrained undistorted single-shot multiplexed sensitivity-encoding (FOCUS MUSE) for diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) in evaluating thyroid-associated ophthalmopathy (TAO).
Materials and Methods:
SS EPI and FOCUS MUSE DWIs were obtained from 39 patients with TAO (18 male; mean ± standard deviation: 48.3 ± 13.3 years) and 26 healthy controls (9 male; mean ± standard deviation: 43.0 ± 18.5 years). Two radiologists scored the visual image quality using a 4-point Likert scale. The image quality score, signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), contrast-tonoise ratio (CNR), and apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) of extraocular muscles (EOMs) were compared between the two DWIs. Differences in the ADC of EOMs were also evaluated. The performance of discriminating active from inactive TAO was assessed using receiver operating characteristic curves. The correlation between ADC and clinical activity score (CAS) was analyzed using Spearman correlation.
Results:
Compared with SS EPI DWI, FOCUS MUSE DWI demonstrated significantly higher image quality scores (P < 0.001), a higher SNR and CNR on the lateral rectus muscle (LRM) and medial rectus muscle (MRM) (P < 0.05), and a non-significant difference in the ADC of the LRM and MRM. Active TAO showed higher ADC than inactive TAO and healthy controls with both SS EPI and FOCUS MUSE DWIs (P < 0.001). Inactive TAO and healthy controls did not show a significant ADC difference with both DWIs. Compared with SS EPI DWI, FOCUS MUSE DWI demonstrated better discrimination of active from inactive TAO (AUC:0.925 vs. 0.779; P = 0.007). The ADC was significantly correlated with CAS in SS EPI DWI (r = 0.391, P < 0.001) and FOCUS MUSE DWI (r = 0.645, P < 0.001).
Conclusion
FOCUS MUSE DWI provides better images for evaluating EOMs and better performance in diagnosing active TAO than SS EPI DWI. The application of FOCUS MUSE will facilitate the DWI evaluation of TAO.

Neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy (nCRT) followed by total mesorectal excision (TME) and adjuvant chemotherapy serves as a traditional standard treatment for locally advanced rectal cancer (LARC). However, such treatment suffers low pathological complete response (pCR) rates, which are merely less than 15%, and low anal-preservation rates, failing to meet the demand of patients for high quality of life. Recently, total neoadjuvant therapy (TNT) whereby postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy is performed preoperatively has further increased the pCR rate, gradually becoming a novel therapeutic approach. Nevertheless, the pCR rate of TNT remains below 30%. Presently, immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) have been proved to be highly successful in treating various solid tumors, yet they are scarcely employed to treat LARC. In recent years, many clinical trials have been conducted to explore the application of nCRT combined with ICIs in the treatment of LARC. This paper reviews the advances in research on this therapy.

OBJECTIVE:
To investigate whether the acetaldehyde dehydrogenase 2 specific activator, Alda-1, can alleviate brain injury after cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) by inhibiting cell ferroptosis mediated by acyl-CoA synthetase long-chain family member 4/glutathione peroxidase 4 (ACSL4/GPx4) pathway in swine.
METHODS:
Twenty-two conventional healthy male white swine were divided into Sham group (n = 6), CPR model group (n = 8), and Alda-1 intervention group (CPR+Alda-1 group, n = 8) using a random number table. The swine model of CPR was reproduced by 8 minutes of cardiac arrest induced by ventricular fibrillation through electrical stimulation in the right ventricle followed by 8 minutes of CPR. The Sham group only experienced general preparation. A dose of 0.88 mg/kg of Alda-1 was intravenously injected at 5 minutes after resuscitation in the CPR+Alda-1 group. The same volume of saline was infused in the Sham and CPR model groups. Blood samples were collected from the femoral vein before modeling and 1, 2, 4, 24 hours after resuscitation, and the serum levels of neuron specific enolase (NSE) and S100 β protein were determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). At 24 hours after resuscitation, the status of neurologic function was evaluated by neurological deficit score (NDS). Thereafter, the animals were sacrificed, and brain cortex was harvested to measure iron deposition by Prussian blue staining, malondialdehyde (MDA) and glutathione (GSH) contents by colorimetry, and ACSL4 and GPx4 protein expressions by Western blotting.
RESULTS:
Compared with the Sham group, the serum levels of NSE and S100β after resuscitation were gradually increased over time, and the NDS score was significantly increased, brain cortical iron deposition and MDA content were significantly increased, GSH content and GPx4 protein expression in brain cortical were significantly decreased, and ACSL4 protein expression was significantly increased at 24 hours after resuscitation in the CPR model and CPR+Alda-1 groups, which indicated that cell ferroptosis occurred in the brain cortex, and the ACSL4/GPx4 pathway participated in this process of cell ferroptosis. Compared with the CPR model group, the serum levels of NSE and S100 β starting 2 hours after resuscitation were significantly decreased in the CPR+Alda-1 group [NSE (μg/L): 24.1±2.4 vs. 28.2±2.1, S100 β (ng/L): 2 279±169 vs. 2 620±241, both P < 0.05]; at 24 hours after resuscitation, the NDS score and brain cortical iron deposition and MDA content were significantly decreased [NDS score: 120±44 vs. 207±68, iron deposition: (2.61±0.36)% vs. (6.31±1.66)%, MDA (μmol/g): 2.93±0.30 vs. 3.68±0.29, all P < 0.05], brain cortical GSH content and GPx4 expression in brain cortical was significantly increased [GSH (mg/g): 4.59±0.63 vs. 3.51±0.56, GPx4 protein (GPx4/GAPDH): 0.54±0.14 vs. 0.21±0.08, both P < 0.05], and ACSL4 protein expression was significantly decreased (ACSL4/GAPDH: 0.46±0.08 vs. 0.85±0.13, P < 0.05), which indicated that Alda-1 might alleviate brain cortical cell ferroptosis through regulating ACSL4/GPx4 pathway.
CONCLUSIONS
Alda-1 can reduce brain injury after CPR in swine, which may be related to the inhibition of ACSL4/GPx4 pathway mediated ferroptosis.

Objective:To compare the clinical results and costs of treatment between internal fixation and total hip replacement in patients aged 60 to 75 years with femoral neck fractures, in order to provide a reference basis for choosing the appropriate surgical procedure for patients in this age group.Methods:According to the inclusion and exclusion criteria, we selected 69 patients treated with internal fixation and 88 patients treated with total hip replacement for femoral neck fractures, and collected relevant data to analyze the differences in clinical characteristics and prognosis between the two groups.Results:The total hip replacement group was older than the internal fixation group[68(64, 72) vs.63(61, 68), Z=-4.536, P<0.001]. There were 20 men(29.0%)and 49 women(71.0%)in the internal fixation group, and 13 men(14.8%)and 75 women(85.2%)in the total hip replacement group.Both groups had more women than men( χ2=4.706, P=0.030). The ratio of the displaced type to the non-displaced type was higher in the total hip replacement group than in the internal fixation group(90.9% vs.46.4%, χ2=37.510, P<0.001). Postoperative serum albumin levels were lower than preoperative levels in both groups, with greater decreases in the total hip replacement group than in the internal fixation group[(9.06±3.45)g/L vs.(7.07±3.37)g/L, t=-3.393, P=0.001]. The total hip replacement group had a higher intraoperative bleeding volume and blood transfusion volume than the internal fixation group( P<0.05), and the days of hospitalization[12(9, 14)d]and hospitalization costs[¥89222.1(84826.8, 93040.0)]were higher than those in the internal fixation group[9(8, 10)d; ¥51158.9(47816.5, 54098.4), Z=-5.138, -10.737, P<0.001 for both]. Weight-bearing after total hip replacement occurred earlier than the internal fixation group[32.0(28.0, 36.5)d vs.92.0(89.3, 95.5)d, Z=-10.228, P<0.001]. There were no significant differences between the two types of surgery for non-displaced femoral neck fractures at 1 year after surgery in the Harris hip score and the quality of life score EQ-5D.For patients with displacement, the rates of excellent and good outcomes based on the Harris score for the total hip replacement group were significantly higher than those for the internal fixation group at 1 year after surgery(97.5% vs.81.3%, χ2=6.697, P=0.010); the postoperative quality of life score EQ-5D was also better than that of the internal fixation group[0.9(0.7, 1.0) vs.1.0(1.0, 1.0), Z=-4.785, P<0.001], and the incidence of postoperative pain and anxiety was lower than that in the internal fixation group(6.3% vs.28.1%, 1.3%, vs.50.0%, χ2=7.928, 38.032, all P<0.01). Conclusions:The mortality and short-term postoperative complications between internal fixation and total hip replacement have no significant differences.There is no significant difference in postoperative function between the two surgical methods for patients with non-displaced femoral neck fractures.For patients with displacement, total hip arthroplasty is superior to internal fixation.The cost of initial hospitalization for internal fixation is significantly lower than for total hip replacement.
