OBJECTIVE To evaluate the efficacy and safety of amoxicillin combined with proton pump inhibitor （PPI） or potassium-competitive acid blocker （P-CAB） for Helicobacter pylori （Hp） eradication. METHODS Randomized controlled trial （RCTs） on amoxicillin combined with PPI or P-CAB for Hp eradication were retrieved from PubMed， Embase， the Cochrane Library， Web of Science， CNKI， Wanfang， and VIP data. The search time frame was from database inception to September 5， 2025. After literature screening， data extraction， and quality assessment， a network meta-analysis was performed using Stata 17.0 software. RESULTS A total of 12 RCTs involving 5 515 patients were included， encompassing 8 therapeutic regimens： PPI combined with high-dose amoxicillin for 14 days （TR1）， PPI combined with low-dose amoxicillin for 14 days （TR2）， P-CAB combined with high-dose amoxicillin for 7 days （TR3）， P-CAB combined with high-dose amoxicillin for 14 days （TR4）， P-CAB combined with high-dose amoxicillin for 10 days （TR5）， P-CAB combined with low-dose amoxicillin for 7 days （TR6）， P-CAB combined with low-dose amoxicillin for 14 days （TR7）， and P-CAB combined with low-dose amoxicillin for 10 days （TR8）. The network meta-analysis results showed that， in terms of intention-to-treat Hp eradication rates， the eradication rates of TR5 and TR4 were significantly higher than those of TR3， TR8， TR6 and TR1 （ P ＜0.05）. The surface under the cumulative ranking curve （SUCRA） values from highest to lowest were： TR4 （89.7%）＞TR5 （82.3%）＞TR7 （71.5%）＞ TR2 （48.6%）＞TR1 （43.9%）＞TR8 （28.7%）＞TR3 （22.7%）＞TR6 （12.6%）. Regarding safety， the incidence of adverse reactions in TR3 and TR5 was significantly lower than that in TR1 （ P ＜0.05）. The SUCRA values from highest to lowest were： TR1 （91.3%）＞TR4 （79.8%）＞TR5 （55.0%）＞TR7 （50.9%）＞TR8 （41.3%）＞TR2 （36.4%）＞TR3 （27.6%） ＞TR6 （17.7%）. CONCLUSIONS Although the regimen of P-CAB combined with high-dose amoxicillin for 14 days demonstrates the best efficacy， the combination of P-CAB with high-dose amoxicillin for 10 days exhibits a better balanced profile in terms of both efficacy and safety.

Flap surgery is a complex surgical procedure that has become an effective method for the treatment of many diseases and traumas.Flap survival is closely related to a variety of factors including cellular autophagy,oxidative stress,inflammatory response,mesenchymal stem cells(MSCs)function,and vascular regeneration.Cellular autophagy maintains intracellular homeostasis and plays a key role in reducing oxidative stress and inflammation and promoting injury repair.Excessive oxidative stress and inflammatory responses pose a threat to flaps,affecting their survival and successful transplantation.Endothelial cells are involved in vascu-lar regeneration through proliferation,migration,and production of angiogenic factors,and vascular endothelial growth factor directly promotes blood vessel formation and maintains endothelial cell function.MSCs play an important role in promoting flap survival and tissue repair due to their unique biological properties and multiple mechanisms of action.The multiple roles played by cellular autophagy,oxidative stress,inflammatory response,MSCs function,and vascular regeneration in influencing postoperative flap survival are hereby elaborated.The aim is to provide a basis for the clinical application of regulating the above factors to improve postoperative flap survival,improve the success rate of flap surgery,reduce complications,and bring more hope for the recovery and quality of life of patients.

This study aimed to elucidate the role of collagen type Ⅺ alpha 1(COL11A1)-positive cancer-associated fibroblasts(CAFs)in modifying the tumor microenvironment of colon cancer(CC)and facilitating im-mune evasion through interactions with myeloid-derived suppressor cells(MDSCs).Using single-cell transcriptomic sequencing,we analyzed the interplay between COL11A1-positive CAFs and MDSCs in the CC microenvironment,focusing on how COL11A1 impacts MDSC differentiation and activation.The results demonstrate that COL11A1 expression in fibroblasts significantly enhances matrix metalloproteinase(MMP)3 and MMP13 expression,leading to paracrine induction of MDSC differentiation and activation,which promotes immune evasion and tumor growth.Additionally,we observed that COL11A1 knockout(COL11A1KO)suppresses tumor growth and hinders immune evasion.These findings underscore the essential role of COL11A1-positive CAFs in establishing an immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment conducive to CC progression.By elucidating the molecular pathway through which COL11A1 influences MDSC activity,this research suggests new therapeutic avenues for targeting the tumor microenvironment in CC,particularly through modulating COL11A1 expression in CAFs.

Objective:To investigate the personnel, equipment, new technology of various radiotherapy units in Gansu Province, aiming to deeply understand the current status of radiotherapy in Gansu Province.Methods:From March 2023 to March 2024, the data of personnel, equipment and technology of different radiotherapy units in Gansu Province were investigated via online questionnaire survey and offline field visits by Gansu Provincial Quality Control Center for Radiation Oncology. The questionable data were reviewed, logical verification and outlier identification were conducted, and all information was entered according to the principle of double entry. Qualitative data were described by frequency (percentage).Results:As of March 2024, there are 26 radiotherapy units in Gansu Province, including 7 units in Lanzhou, capital city of Gansu Province and none in Linxia Hui Autonomous Prefecture and Gannan Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture. The ratio of radiotherapy physicians and physicists was 2.71 vs. 1, lower than the national level of 3.51 vs. 1. Radiotherapy physicians with intermediate and senior titles accounted for 66.2%, 54% for physicists with intermediate and senior titles and 34.0% for therapists with intermediate and senior titles, respectively. There were 1.70 accelerators per million population in Gansu Province. Among 42 accelerators in Gansu Province, 40 were linac and 2 heavy ion accelerators. In Lanzhou, 7 radiotherapy units had 17 linac, and the remaining 11 cities had 23 linac. All 40 linac could perform 3D conformal radiotherapy and intensity-modulated radiotherapy. The high-end equipment could apply advanced technologies such as volumetric modulated arc radiotherapy, stereotactic body radiotherapy, optical surface-guided radiation therapy and adaptive radiation therapy, etc. Relevant data in this survey were improved compared with those in the national surveys conducted in 2006, 2015 and 2019. Conclusions:The radiotherapy status has developed in Gansu Province, whereas uneven development still exists among regions. According to the actual demands of equipment, talents and technology in each region, the structural adjustment should be oriented to the underdeveloped cities and counties in the province to meet the local medical needs.

Aim To explore the action mechanism of isoquercitrin(IQ)in ameliorating anxiety based on network pharmacology,cellular transcriptomics,molecu-lar docking and animal experiments.Methods The common targets of anxiety disorders and IQ were ob-tained by using relevant databases.The protein-protein interaction network,the biological function and signa-ling pathway enrichment analysis were conducted by u-sing the common targets.Primary hippocampal neurons were cultured in vitro,and corticosterone was added to induce neurons to establish a corticosterone injury mod-el.IQ treatment was added to the culture system,and transcriptomics was used to screen for differentially ex-pressed genes and enrich for differentially expressed pathways.Subsequently,the results were validated by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction(qRT-PCR).Possible targets and signaling pathways for IQ treatment on anxiety were speculated and screened u-sing network pharmacology,transcriptomics and molec-ular docking.The anxiety rat model was constructed,and the anxiety state of rats was evaluated after IQ in-tervention,and the protein expression level of hippo-campus was detected to verify the relevant mechanism.Results Network pharmacology,cellular transcrip-tome,and molecular docking analyses revealed that the key mechanism of IQ for anxiety may be related to the BDKRB2/PI3K/Akt signaling pathway.Animal exper-iments showed that IQ was effective in improving anxie-ty behaviour and learning memory ability in rats.IQ increased the movement distance and residence time in the central area of the open field,the time and number percentage of entries into the open arm in the elevated plus maze,and the spontaneous alternations score in the Y maze in rats,and significantly elevated protein expression of BDKRB2,PI3K,Akt and decreased pro-tein expression of NF-κB in the hippocampus.Conclu-sions Isoquercitrin can effectively treat anxiety,and the mechanism of action may be related to the regula-tion of BDKRB2/PI3K/Akt signaling pathway in hip-pocampus.

Oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma(OPSCC)is a malignant tumor originating from the squamous epithelium of the oro-pharyngeal mucosa,accounting for more than 90％of oropharyngeal malignancies.In recent years,human papillomavirus(HPV)infec-tion has become one of the primary etiological factors of oropharyngeal squamous carcinoma.The incidence of HPV-associated oropharyn-geal squamous carcinoma has been rising annually,with a noticeable trend toward younger populations,posing a significant threat to hu-man health.Due to the distinct biological behavior and clinical characteristics of HPV-associated oropharyngeal squamous carcinoma com-pared to its non-HPV-related counterpart,the diagnostic and treatment strategies for oropharyngeal squamous carcinoma have undergone substantial changes.Prevention and screening for oropharyngeal squamous carcinoma are of critical importance.The diagnostic and treat-ment process involves multi-disciplinary collaboration,including oral and maxillofacial surgery,otolaryngology,head and neck surgery,oncology,radiology and pathology.Based on evidence from clinical practice,a comprehensive,integrated diagnostic and therapeutic ap-proach has been established,centered around the concept of"prevention,screening,diagnosis,treatment,and rehabilitation",covering the entire patient lifecycle and providing a valuable reference for clinical practice.

Objective To prepare an advanced irrigation device equipped with a specialized nozzle designed to access the pericoronal blind sac of impacted wisdom teeth,and evaluate its efficacy in plaque removal.Methods 3D-printer was utilized to develop pericoronal models simulating mandibular wisdom teeth with high vertical impaction and varying soft tissue coverage(0%,25%,50%,and 75%,respectively)and personalized pericoronal irrigator.The obtained pericoronal models were randomly divided into 3 groups,treated with personalized precision pericoronal flushing,routine flushing and brushing,respectively,and,under a pressures of 45 psi or 75 psi(1 psi=6 894.76 Pa),were performed to clean the test surfaces of plaque-biofilm-obstructed wisdom teeth,respectively.Images of the tooth surfaces were analyzed before and after cleaning,and the cleaning rate was calculated using Python software.Results For wisdom teeth with 50%and 75%pericoronal soft tissue coverage,at a pressure of 45 psi,the precision pericoronal flushing group demonstrated significantly higher cleaning rate when compared to the brushing and routine flushing groups(P<0.05).At 0%and 25%pericoronal soft tissue coverage,the precision pericoronal flushing and brushing groups exhibited significantly higher cleaning rates than the routine flushing group(P<0.05).Furthermore,at 75 psi,the precision pericoronal flushing group achieved a significantly higher cleaning rate across all 4 levels of pericoronal soft tissue coverage than both the routine flushing and brushing groups(P<0.05).Notably,the precision pericoronal flushing group at 75 psi obtained significantly higher cleaning rate than at 45 psi across 0%,25%,and 50%pericoronal soft tissue coverage(P<0.05).Conclusion The precision pericoronal irrigation device demonstrates significantly superior cleaning efficacy for vertically impacted mandibular third molars compared to conventional irrigation devices and manual tooth brushing.It is an effective device for preventing and treating pericoronitis.

Accurate analysis of metal nanoparticles(MNPs)in sediments is a prerequisite for assessing the ecological risks of MNPs in aquatic environmental sediments.In this study,an analytical method for quantitative detection of concentration and particle size distribution of silver-containing nanoparticles(Ag-NPs),zinc-containing nanoparticles(Zn-NPs),cerium-containing nanoparticles(Ce-NPs),and titanium-containing nanoparticles(Ti-NPs)in sediments was established based on ultrasonic extraction-single particle inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry(SP-ICP-MS).The effects of sample preparation conditions such as extraction solvent type,solid-liquid ratio,ultrasonic time,and settling time on the recovery of MNPs were investigated.The results showed that the extraction of MNPs from sediment by distilled water could effectively eliminate the high background signal interference introduced by the extractant under the conditions of solid-liquid ratio of 1∶400(g∶mL),ultrasonic extraction time of 1 h and settling time of 3 h.The detection limits for particle size of Ag-NPs,Zn-NPs,Ce-NPs and Ti-NPs in sediments were 31,35,26 and 85 nm,respectively,while the detection limits of particle concentrations were 1.21×104,1.90×104,5.26×107 and 1.48×107 particles/g,respectively.The spiking recoveries of Ag-NPs,Zn-NPs,Ce-NPs and Ti-NPs in sediments were 62.1％-108.7％,with relative standard deviations below 10％.This method could rapidly,accurately and simultaneously determine the concentration and particle size distribution of various MNPs in sediments,and was successfully applied to analysis of Ag-NPs,Zn-NPs,Ce-NPs,and Ti-NPs in authentic marine sediments.

The efficient,precise,and rapid detection of trace copper ions(Cu2+)is of paramount importance in the realms of food safety,environmental monitoring,and medical health.By ingeniously utilizing the chemical properties of benzotriazole compounds in copper protection,and introducing an electrochemical reduction strategy,a silver nanoparticle composite structure supported by a nickel foam substrate was developed as an active platform for surface-enhanced Raman scattering(SERS)detection.This platform employed benzotriazole-5-carboxylic acid(BTAC)as a specific SERS probe molecule to achieve sensitive analysis of metal ion concentrations.The detection mechanism revealed a highly selective coordination between the Cu2+and the nitrogen atom in the triazole ring of BTAC,triggering subtle structural changes in the triazole ring.This was manifested by a significant and quantifiable shift in the characteristic peak of the SERS spectrum(particularly at 1001 cm-1),with a maximum shift of up to 30 cm-1.This phenomenon not only addressed the issue of reproducibility in quantitative analysis caused by the non-uniformity of SERS substrate materials but also significantly broadened the application boundaries of SERS technology for trace metal ion detection.It enabled ultra-sensitive detection of Cu2+concentrations ranging from 1×10-6 to 1×10-11 mol/L,with a detection limit as low as 1×10-11 mol/L,significantly enhancing detection sensitivity and accuracy.This work provided a novel and efficient strategy for rapid detection of trace Cu2+and enriched the application potential of SERS technology in food safety,environmental monitoring and biomedical analysis.
