The continuous advancement of molecular detection technology has greatly propelled the develop-ment of precision medicine for lung cancer.However,tumor heterogeneity is closely associated with tumor metastasis,recurrence,and drug resistance.Additionally,different lung cancer patients with the same genetic mutation may exhibit varying treatment responses to different therapeutic strategies.Therefore,the development of modern precision medicine urgently requires the precise formulation of personalized treatment strategies through personalized tumor models.Lung cancer organoid(LCO)can highly simulate the biological characteristics of tumor in vivo,facilitating the application of innovative drugs such as antibody-drug conjugate in precision medicine for lung cancer.With the development of co-culture model of LCO with tumor microenvironment and tissue engineering technology such as microfluidic chip,LCO can better preserve the biological characteristics and functions of tumor tissue,further improving high-throughput and automated drug sensitivity experiment.In this review,we combine the latest research progress to summarize the applica-tion progress and challenges of LCO in precision medicine for lung cancer.

Objective:To investigate the clinical efficacy of simultaneous arthroscopic repair of anterior talofibular ligament (ATFL) and calcaneofibular ligament (CFL) for treating chronic lateral ankle instability (CLAI) in conjunction with subtalar instability (STI).Methods:This is a retrospective case series study. The clinical data of 15 patients with ankle arthroscopic in the Department of Hand and Foot Surgery, the Second Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University from January 2019 to December 2022 were analyzed retrospectively. There were 11 male cases and 4 female cases, aged (28.6±1.5) years (range: 19 to 39 years). All the patients were evaluated by manual inversion stress X-ray and MRI before operation. Arthroscopically observing and then repairing the ATFL and CFL separately after further diagnostic confirmation. One year after operation, MRI was performed, and pain visual analogue score(VAS), American Orthopedic Foot and Ankle Society ankle hindfoot scale (AOFAS-AH) and Karlsson ankle functional scale(KAFS) were evaluated. Data were compared using paired sample t test. Results:The follow-up period was (23.6±2.3) months (range: 12 to 30 months). At last follow-up,the VAS decreased from 6.1±1.4 preoperatively to 1.4±1.2( t=9.482, P<0.01).The AOFAS-AH improved from 50.5±11.7 preoperatively to 94.2±6.1( t=-13.132, P<0.01), and the KAFS improved from preoperatively 44.3±10.8 to 90.8±6.4 ( t=-12.510, P<0.01). There was no complication such as recurred instability or joint stiffness. Conclusions:Arthroscopically repairing the ATFL and CFL separately can effectively restore the stability of the ankle and subtalar joint with small trauma. Patients can recover quickly after surgery. It provides a new idea for the clinical treatment of CLAI combined with STI.

Due to the advancement of 16S rRNA sequencing technology, the lower respiratory tract microbiota, which was considered non-existent, has been revealed. The correlation between these microorganisms and diseases such as tumor has been a hot topic in recent years. As the bacteria in the surrounding can infiltrate the tumors, researchers have also begun to pay attention to the biological behavior of tumor bacteria and their interaction with tumors. In this review, we present the characteristic of the lower respiratory tract bacteria and summarize recent research findings on the relationship between these microbiota and lung cancer. On top of that, we also summarize the basic feature of bacteria in tumors and focus on the characteristic of the bacteria in lung cancer. The relationship between bacteria in lung cancer and tumor development is also been discussed. Finally, we review the potential clinical applications of bacterial communities in the lower respiratory tract and lung cancer, and summarize key points of sample collection, sequencing, and contamination control, hoping to provide new ideas for the screening and treatment of tumors.

Objectives:To investigate the safety and efficacy of concomitant mitral valvuloplasty(MVP)and implantation of domestic third-generation magnetically levitated Corheart 6 left ventricular assist device(LVAD). Methods:Clinical data of 13 end-stage heart failure patients who underwent Corheart 6 LVAD implantation and MVP at Central China Fuwai Hospital of Zhengzhou University from October 2021 to March 2023 were retrospectively analyzed.Mortality and complication events during hospitalization and at follow-up were collected,and changes in myocardial injury biomarkers,renal function,hemodynamics,and echocardiographic indices were observed. Results:There were no perioperative deaths and no MVP-related complications in these patients.During a mean follow-up of(14.2±5.6)months,2 patients died due to COVID-19 pneumonia and cardiac arrest respectively,11 cases(84.6%)survived.There were no recurrences of moderate-to-severe mitral regurgitation in the survived patients.Compared with preoperative value,higher cardiac output,lower central venous pressure,pulmonary artery systolic pressure(PASP),and mean pulmonary artery pressure(PAMP)were evidenced at 24 h and 72 h postoperatively,estimated glomerular filtration rate was also reduced at 1 week post operation(all P<0.010).High-sensitive troponin T level was significantly increased at 1 week post operation and then reduced at 1 month post operation,but still not returned to pre-operative level([125.5±281.9]pg/ml at baseline,[1 295.6±654.6]pg/ml at 1 week post operation and[278.0±300.5]pg/ml at 1 month post operation).Echocardiography showed that compared with preoperative period,the left ventricular ejection fraction tended to be higher at 1 and 6 months postoperatively(both P>0.017),whereas left ventricular end-diastolic dimension,PASP,and PAMP were significantly reduced(all P<0.010). Conclusions:Domestic third-generation magnetically levitated Corheart 6 LVAD implantation with concomitant MVP is safe and feasible,there is no recurrence of moderate-to-severe mitral regurgitation,a significant reduction in pulmonary artery pressure,and significant hemodynamic improvement in early to mid-term postoperatively are observed in survived patients.

Background Shoemaking industry workers are prone to work-related musculoskeletal disorders (WMSDs) due to long-term awkward postures during the work process. There is little research on the prevalence and influencing factors of WMSDs in the knee region of this industry, and it should be taken seriously. Objective To estimate the prevalence of work-related knee pain among shoemaking workers and analyze the related influencing factors. Methods A total of 6982 shoemaking workers were selected from 26 shoemaking factories in Guangdong, Hubei, Fujian, Chongqing, Shandong, Zhejiang, and Jingxi by convenience sampling. Prevalence of work-related knee pain in past year, demographic characteristics, occupational related factors, and work posture were collected by a cross-sectional survey using the electronic version of Musculoskeletal Disorder Questionnaire. Logistic regression analysis was used to analyze the influencing factors that may lead to work-related knee pain. Results This survey collected 6982 valid questionnaires with a recovery rate of 98.3%. The prevalence of work-related knee pain of shoemaking workers in the past 12 months was 13.0% (908/6982). According to the results of logistic regression analysis, compared with workers with less than 5 years of service, workers with 5-10 years of service (OR=1.21, 95%CI: 1.02, 1.45) and more than 10 years (1.53, 95%CI: 1.27, 1.83) showed a higher risk of knee WMSDs; sometimes, often and very frequent (reference : rarely or never) long-term standing (OR=1.33, 95%CI: 1.08, 1.64; OR=2.67, 95%CI: 2.10, 3.39; OR=2.75, 95%CI: 2.08, 3.63) and sometimes, often and very frequent (reference: rarely or never) long-term squatting or kneeling (OR=1.80, 95%CI: 1.47, 2.21; OR=2.43, 95%CI: 1.58, 3.75; OR=3.22, 95%CI: 1.66, 6.24) increased the risk of knee pain: long-term bending (OR=1.59, 95%CI: 1.34, 1.89) and often repeated movement of lower limbs and ankles (OR=1.48, 95%CI: 1.25, 1.75) were also risk factors for knee WMSDs among shoemaking industry workers (P<0.05). Adequate rest time (OR=0.58, 95%CI: 0.49, 0.68) and able to stretch or change leg posture (OR=0.75, 95%CI: 0.64, 0.88) reduced the risk of knee WMSDs (P<0.05). Conclusion In the shoemaking industry, length of service and awkward postures are risk factors for knee pain. The shoemaking enterprises should ensure that workers have sufficient rest time, reduce long-term standing, squatting, kneeling, and bending postures, as well as lower limbs repetition in order to reduce the occurrence of knee WMSDs of workers.

Objective To investigate the clinical value of gallbladder function in predicting postoperative complications after endoscopic treatment of calculus of common bile duct.Methods 118 patients with complete gallbladder who underwent endoscopic clearance for calculus of common bile duct were selected from January 2018 to December 2022.After the liver function recovered to normal,the patients underwent lipid meal ultrasound examination to evaluate fasting volume,residual volume,and gallbladder ejection fraction(GBEF).The relationship between clinical features,gallbladder function and recurrent biliary complications was analyzed in patients with calculus of common bile duct.Results Among the 118 patients with calculus of common bile duct,86 had concomitant cholecystolithiasis,while 32 did not.During the follow-up period,23 patients developed biliary complications.Among the 86 patients with concomitant cholecystolithiasis,15 had spontaneous clearance of cholecystolithiasis,14 underwent cholecystectomy due to acute cholecystitis or recurrent abdominal pain,and 6 died of non-biliary causes.The GBEF of the patients with cholecystolithiasis was significantly lower.Cholecystolithiasis,alcohol consumption,and more than one endoscopic treatment were the risk factors for recurrent biliary complications after endoscopic treatment of calculus of common bile duct.Conclusion Patients with calculus of common bile duct combined with cholecystolithiasis have poor GBEF.Cholecystolithiasis,alcohol consumption,and more than one endoscopic treatment are the risk factors for recurrent biliary complications after endoscopic treatment of calculus of common bile duct.Since cholecystolithiasis may spontaneously resolve,conservative monitoring of the gallbladder after endoscopic treatment for calculus of common bile duct is appropriate,but regular follow-up is necessary for high-risk patients.

The paper reported a patient under maintained hemodialysis for 11 years, with a large mass appeared in the right thigh after local injury. The mass was clinically considered as tumoral calcinosis combined with clinical, imaging and pathological findings. Several treatments such as enhancing dialysis adequacy, low calcium dialysate, calcimimetic agent, non-calcium- phosphorus binding agents, parathyroidectomy and intravenous infusion of sodium thiosulfate could not vanish the mass. Finally, the lump was surgically removed. The treatment of tumoral calcinosis in the hemodialysis patient can provide a instruction for similar situations in clinical practice.

Objective:To analyze the hospitalization costs of delivery for postpartum women with different delivery methods, ages and comorbidities or complications, for references for medical institutions and medical insurance management departments to develop payment and compensation standards for inpatient delivery.Methods:The first page of medical records of hospitalized delivery women admitted to 8 large tertiary hospitals in Beijing from January 2018 to December 2021 were selected. Descriptive analysis was made on the mode of delivery, age, hospitalization expenses and cost structure of puerpera, as well as the hospitalization expenses of puerpera with different complications or complications. Wilcoxon rank sum test, Kruskal-Wallis H test, and Chi-squared test were used to statistically compare the level and structure differences between groups. Results:A total of 23 320 pregnant women were included, with an average age of 32.3 years. There were 13 605 cases of natural delivery and 9 715 cases of caesarean section. The median cesarean section rate in the right age group (<35 years old) and the elderly group (35-50 years old) were 36.73% and 56.58%, respectively, and the median hospital expenses were 5 865 yuan and 7 042 yuan, respectively. The median hospital expenses for natural delivery and caesarean section were 4 452 yuan and 10 033 yuan, respectively. The highest proportion of hospitalization expenses for natural delivery and cesarean section were treatment expenses (23.45%) and medicine expenses (29.19%), respectively. The median of hospitalization cost for women with≥2 comorbidities or complications (6 736 yuan) was higher than that for women with 1 comorbidities or complications (5 794 yuan).Conclusions:The hospitalization cost of cesarean section was significantly higher than that of natural delivery and the rate of cesarean section and the cost of delivery in women aged 35 and above were higher than those under 35 years old. The structure of hospitalization cost was different in different delivery modes, and the complications or complications had a greater impact on the average hospitalization expenses.
