Objective: To analyze the risk factors of recurrence after transurethral resection of bladder tumor (TURBT) in patients with non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC)，and establish a risk prediction model，so as to optimize the clinical detection and management of NMIBC. Methods: A total of 174 patients with initial diagnosis of NMIBC who underwent TURBT in the First Affiliated Hospital of Xinjiang Medical University during Jan.2020 and Oct.2022 were followed up for 24 months，and were then divided into the recurrence group (n=74) and non-recurrence group (n=100).After univariate analysis and multivariate logistic regression，risk factors of recurrence were identified，a nomogram was established，and the calibration curve was plotted，which was verified with receiver operator characteristic (ROC) curve. Results: The 2-year recurrence rate was 42.53%.Logistic regression showed high body mass index (BMI)，poor differentiation，multiple tumors，and tumor diameter greater than 3 cm were risk factors of recurrence (P<0.05，OR≥1)，while immediate postoperative intravesical instillation was a protective factor (P<0.05).The C-index of the nomogram was 0.893 (95%CI:0.851-0.938)，the area of ROC curve (AUC) was 0.894 (95%CI：0.847-0.941)，the sensitivity was 82.4%，and the specificity was 83.0%. Conclusion: The prediction model based on BMI，tumor stage，grade，number，diameter，and immediate postoperative intravesical instillation fits well and can provide reference for predicting the risk of tumor recurrence.

Objective: To investigate the coexistence of comorbidity of myopia, overweight/obesity and depressive symptoms among middle school students in Quzhou and its associated factors, so as to provide evidence for integrated prevention and control of common multiple health issues in students. Methods: From September to November 2023, a total of 5 867 middle school students from 6 counties (cities and districts) in Quzhou City were selected by stratified random cluster sampling. Physical and visual examinations were conducted, and the Center for Epidemiological Studies - Depression Scale (CES-D) along with a questionnaire on health status and influencing factors were completed. Multivariate Logistic regression was used to analyze the related factors of coexistence of myopia, overweight/obesity, and depressive symptoms among middle school students, and a nomogram model was constructed based on the results. Results: A total of 161 middle school students in Quzhou City were identified as having comorbid myopia, overweight/ obesity and depressive symptoms, with a detection rate of 2.74%. The results of multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that the coexistence of myopia, overweight/obesity and depressive symptoms increased among middle school students with older age ( OR =1.11), a greater number unhealthy dietary behaviors (1,2,≥3; OR =2.40, 2.70, 4.63), insufficient sleep( OR =1.78) and alcohol consumption ( OR =2.11)(all P <0.05). Compared with no homework after class, those whose homework duration after class was 1 to < 2 hour had a lower risk of comorbidity of myopia, overweight/obesity and depressive symptoms ( OR =0.53, P <0.05). The results of the nomogram model showed that the AUC (95% CI ) was 0.71 (0.67-0.74). Conclusions The coexistence of myopia, overweight/obesity and depressive symptoms among middle school students in Quzhou City is related to age, sleeping, alcohol consumption, poor dietary behavior and the duration of after school homework. The nomogram model can assist in the early screening and intervention of multiple health issues among students.

Refractory inner ear disease refers to a spectrum of inner ear diseases that fail to achieve good therapeutic effects even after standardized treatment recommended by existing clinical practice guidelines. This disease spectrum is characterized by diverse etiological factors, high phenotypic heterogeneity, unclear subtype characteristics, unknown pathogenic mechanisms, and variable prognosis, making it difficult to define precisely. Refractory inner ear disease accounts for a significant proportion of the total population with inner ear diseases and has not been systematically summarized, refined, and deeply studied to date. This article, for the first time, clearly proposes the concept, definition, and scope of refractory inner ear disease, and elaborates on the current research status, challenges, and coping strategies for refractory inner ear disease. With the development and progress of science and technology, we believe that in the future we will witness more innovative technologies and new drugs applied to the treatment of refractory inner ear disease, bringing hope of cure to patients.

Individuals with type 1 diabetes or advanced type 2 diabetes suffer insufficient insulin secretion, leading to symptoms of hyperglycemia. To maintain the normal blood glucose levels, those people with diabetes must administer insulin multiple times a day. However, insulin requirements are influenced by several factors such as diet, exercise, and illness, combined with the narrow therapeutic index, making accurate insulin dosage challenging. Excessive insulin administration can even pose life-threatening risks. In addition, frequent daily insulin injections place considerable physiological and psychological burdens on patients. To tackle these challenges, researchers have embarked on the development of closed-loop insulin delivery systems. These systems adjust insulin dosages in real-time changes based on the patient’s blood glucose levels, therefore enhancing both the safety and effectiveness of insulin therapy. This review categorizes closed-loop insulin delivery systems into two types: electronic-based and material-based systems, based on their compositional attributes. The exploration of both types covers their components, developmental history, clinical applications, current pros and cons, and future directions. The relative strengths and limitations of these two categories of closed-loop insulin delivery systems are also compared and discussed.

Objective:To analyze the correlation between drug-induced sleep endoscopy (DISE), results, polysomnography (PSG) indicators, and clinical parameters in patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), and to establish and validate a predictive model for tongue base plane obstruction.Methods:This retrospective study analyzed 117 OSA patients diagnosed via PSG and treated at the Department of Otolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery, Nanfang Hospital, Southern Medical University, between October 2014 and March 2022. The cohort comprised of 114 males and 3 females, with an age range of 20 to 54 years (mean age 38.1±8.4 years). Data on DISE results, PSG results, and clinical indicators were collected for all 117 patients. Logistic regression analysis was performed to identify relevant indicators, and a predictive model for tongue base plane obstruction was constructed and internally validated using the R programming language.Results:Univariate logistic regression analysis identified four independent risk factors for predicting tongue root plane obstruction: tonsil grading, N2, N3, and rapid eye movement sleep(REM) stage [ OR:0.412(0.260~0.652),1.045(1.012~1.079),0.943(0.903~0.984),0.961(0.925~0.998), P <0.05]. Multivariate logistic regression analysis confirmed tonsil grading and N3 sleep stage (12.48±12.22%) as significant predictors. A nomogram model incorporating these factors demonstrated good predictive performance, with an area under curve(AUC) of 0.82 (95% CI: 0.548-1.000), an optimal cutoff of 0.519, a specificity of 80.0%, and a sensitivity of 86.7%. Internal validation of the model in the validation cohort yielded an AUC of 0.751 (95% CI: 0.625-0.876). Conclusions:Tongue base plane obstruction observed during DISE in OSA patients is associated with tonsil grading and N3 sleep stage duration. The predictive model developed for tongue base plane obstruction based on DISE demonstrates good efficacy, as evidenced by its internal validation.

Objective To explore the protective effect and mechanism of Jinyinqingre oral liquid on acute lung injury in-duced by lipopolysaccharide(LPS)in mice.Methods C57BL/6J mice were randomly divided into six groups according to the random number table method:blank control group,model control group,Jinyinqingre oral liquid low-dose group,Jinyinqingre oral liquid medium-dose group,Jinyinqingre oral liquid high-dose group,and dexamethasone group.Except for the blank control group,the other groups were injected with lipopolysac charide(LPS)(5 mg·kg-1)into the trachea to establish the acute lung injury model of mice,and the Jinyinqingre oral liquid low,medium,and high groups were continuously administered the drug by gavage for three days.After 24 h,lung tissue and bronchoalveolar lavage fluid(BALF)were collected from the six groups for follow-up detection.The pathological injury of lung tissue in each group was observed by HE staining.The total number of cells in BALF was detected.The to-tal protein content of BALF was detected by the BCA method.The contents of inflammatory cytokines TNF-α,IL-1β,IL-6,and IgM in BALF were detected by ELISA.The expression of NF-κB and NLRP3 proteins in lung tissues was detected by immunohistochemistry and Western blotting.Results Compared with model control group,Jinyinqingre oral liquid alleviated the pathological injury of lung tissue(P＜0.05),decreased the total cell count,total protein content and IgM expression in BALF(P＜0.01),and the expres-sion of inflammatory cytokines TNF-α,IL-6 and IL-1β in BALF was dreased(P＜0.05),the protein expressions of NF-κB and NL-RP3 in lung tissues was dreased(P＜0.05).Conclusion Jinyinqingre oral liquid attenuated the pathological injury,inflammatory exudation,and expression of inflammatory cytokines in LPS-induced lung injury in mice,and its mechanism may be through the reg-ulation of NF-κB/NLRP3 signaling pathway,providing a theoretical basis for its clinical application.

Objective To compare the clinical effects of arthroscopically-assisted reduction and internal fixation(ARIF)combined with enhanced recovery after surgery(ERAS)and open reduction and internal fixation surgery(ORIF)in the treatment of posterior lateral tibial plateau fractures.Methods Seventy patients with posterior lateral tibial plateau fractures in the Department of Orthopaedics,Xuzhou Central Hospital,from January 2020 to November 2022 were retrospectively selected and divided into ARIF group(with ERAS,n=32)and ORIF group(without ERAS,n=38)according to the treatment methods.All patients were evaluated for fracture type by imaging examination after admission.The operation time,length of hospital stay,early postoperative pain score(evaluated by visual analogue scale[VAS]),knee joint function(evaluated by hospital for special surgery[HSS]scale)at 3 months and thigh circumference difference at 6 months postoperatively were compared between the two groups.Results The operation time in the ARIF group was significantly shorter than that in the ORIF group([67.84±9.89]min vs[85.16±9.18]min,P＜0.001),and the length of hospital stay was significantly shorter in the ARIF group([7.13±1.41]d vs[8.74±1.84]d,P＜0.001).On the third day after operation,the VAS score in the ARIF group was significantly lower than that in the ORIF group([4.00±1.44]vs[5.39±1.24],P＜0.001).ARIF group had better joint function than ORIF group 3 months after operation,and the difference of 10 cm thigh circumference on patella in ARIF group was smaller than that in ORIF group 6 months after operation.Conclusions Compared to ORIF,patients with posterior lateral tibial plateau fractures treated with ARIF combined with ERAS showed faster postoperative recovery,shorter hospital stay,and more precise clinical efficacy.

In January 2021, an acute chemical poisoning incident occurred at a fluorine polymerization plant. Through the analysis of the occupational health situation of the enterprise, combined with the clinical manifestations of the poisoned patients and the laboratory examination results, it was determined that the incident was an acute poisoning incident caused by the inhalation of organic fluorine mixed gas in the fluorine polymerization plant. Subsequently, it was clarified that the accident was caused by the illegal operation of the employees of the fluorine polymerization plant, which caused the discharge of the organic fluorine mixed gas containing high concentration of octafluoroisobutene, resulting in the poisoning of the on-site construction personnel. In order to avoid the occurrence of similar incidents, enterprises should implement the main responsibility of safety production, regularly organize supervision and inspection, eliminate illegal operations, conduct safety education and training for the staff of the unit and outsourced staff, and improve the emergency rescue ability of sudden poisoning incidents.
