Objective To find out whether photobiomodulation(PBM)can mitigate cognitive dysfunction caused by chronic stress by affecting levels of adenosine triphosphate(ATP)and adenosine receptors.Methods Twenty-four C57BL/6J mice were randomly divided into a control group,a stress group,and a treatment group.Chronic unpredictable mild stress was used to establish a mouse model of stress.Six weeks into modeling,the treatment group was subjected to one week of PBM interventions.Behavioral tests were conducted to observe behavioral changes in the mice.Western blotting(WB)was used to detect the expressions of A1,A2B,and A3 adenosine receptors in the hippocampus and prefrontal cortex of mice in the three groups.Twelve C57BL/6J mice were randomly divided into a control group and an intervention group.The intervention group received a week of PBM interventions and underwent behavioral testing.WB was used to detect the expression changes of A1,A2B,and A3 adenosine receptors in the hippocampus and prefrontal cortex in both groups.Immunofluorescence assay was adopted to detect the expression of c-Fos in the hippocampus of mice in the two groups.The ATP assay kit made by Beyotime Biotechnology Co.,Ltd.was used to measure changes in ATP contents in the hippocampus and prefrontal cortex tissues of mice.Cell experiments were conducted to verify the effect of PBM on intracellular ATP contents.Results Mice in the stress group covered a similar distance to the control group,but finished far fewer platform crossings.There was no significant difference between the treatment group and the control group in the number of times of platform crossings,but compared favorably with the stress group where the levels of adenosine receptors in the hippocampus and prefrontal cortex were lower,but were increased by PBM.After PBM interventions in normal mice,platform crossings were increased significantly compared to the control group.PBM also raised adenosine receptor levels and ATP contents in the hippocampus and prefrontal cortex,and increased hippocampal c-Fos expressions.In vitro,PBM elevated intracellular ATP levels.Conclusion PBM may improve chronic stress-induced cognitive dysfunction by regulating ATP levels and adenosine receptor expressions,thereby modulating neuronal responsiveness in the hippocampus.

Spontaneous abortion is one of the most common complications of pregnancy, and two or more spontaneous abortions in a row are defined as recurrent spontaneous abortion (RSA), of which about half of patients have unknown etiology. However, the pathogenesis of unexplained RSA (URSA) has not been elucidated, and the lack of effective treatment has made it one of the key and difficult points in the field of obstetrics and gynecology. This article conducts a literature review of recent research on URSA and finds that the pathogenesis of URSA is related to the imbalance of immune tolerance at the maternal-fetal interface, apoptosis of trophoblast cells, inhibition of angiogenesis, and activation of immune responses. Immunotherapy (including cell therapy, cytokine therapy, and immunosuppressive intervention), hormone drugs, anticoagulant regimens, and traditional Chinese medicine therapies are commonly used in clinical practice to intervene in URSA, but the safety and effectiveness of some therapies are still controversial.

ObjectiveTo assess the level of internal exposure to PCP in a community population in Shanghai, to investigate the factors affecting the level of PCP, and to analyze the correlation between the exposure and thyroid hormone levels. MethodsA total of 464 residents of a community in Shanghai were selected as the study subjects. A questionnaire survey was conducted to obtain the demographic information, dietary situation, lifestyle and behavioral habits, and disease history of the individuals, and blood samples were collected. Gas chromatography-electron trap was applied to determine the PCP levels in serum. Multicategorical logistic regression analysis was used to analyze the possible influencing factors of PCP exposure in humans. Thyroid hormone levels were used as the dependent variable and serum PCP as the independent variable. Multiple linear regression analysis was used to assess the association between PCP and thyroid hormones in the community population after controlling the confounding factors such as age, gender, literacy, annual personal income, and chronic diseases. ResultsThe detection rate of serum PCP in 464 subjects was 90.3%, and the median serum PCP level was 0.43 μg·L-1. The differences in PCP levels among different age groups were statistically significant. There were no significant differences in PCP levels among different gender and BMI groups. The study of PCP exposure factors showed that age, frequency of using plastic products, consumption of freshwater fish, type of occupation, annual income, and consumption of tea or coffee were the potential influencing factors for PCP exposure. Among them, age, frequency of using plastic products, consumption of tea or coffee, and consumption of freshwater fish were positively associated with PCP levels, and annual personal income was negatively associated with it. The results of multiple linear regression analysis showed that among men, PCP levels were positively correlated with TSH (b=0.105, 95%CI:0.017‒0.313) and negatively correlated with FT4 (b=-0.026, 95%CI:-0.057‒0.004), and among women, PCP levels were positively correlated with TSH (b=0.092, 95%CI:-0.211‒0.904) and FT3 (b=0.017, 95%CI:-0.058‒0.230) and negatively correlated with FT4 (b=-0.013, 95%CI:-0.011‒0.037). ConclusionSerum PCP detection is common among community residents in Shanghai. Different demographic characteristics or behavioral habits may increase or decrease PCP exposure. PCP exposure then affects human thyroid hormone levels.

Objective:To analyze clinical and histopathological diagnoses of patients with solid tumors localized on the perianal and external genitalia regions, aiming to help clinicians correctly identify benign and malignant tumors.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on clinical, histopathological, and dermoscopic features, diagnosis and treatment of 389 patients diagnosed with solid tumors localized in the perianal and external genitalia regions in the Department of Dermatology, Peking University Third Hospital from January 2016 to May 2023.Results:Among the 389 patients with solid tumors in perianal and external genitalia regions, 123 were males and 266 were females, with the age being 8 - 89 (41.86 ± 16.62) years. Based on the histological classification of skin tumors, melanocytic tumors were the most common type (33.16% [129/389]), followed by other tumors (21.59%, 84/389), keratinocytic tumors (21.08%, 82/389), soft tissue and neural tumors (13.62%, 53/389), and appendageal tumors (10.54%, 41/389). There were 83.03% (323/389) of benign tumors and 16.97% (66/389) of malignant tumors. Melanocytic nevus was the most common benign tumor, mostly involving the labia majora of females and mons pubis of males. Among the malignant tumors, squamous cell carcinoma was relatively common in females (40%, 10/25), while extramammary Paget′s disease was relatively common in males (39.02%, 16/41). The initial misdiagnosis rate of Bowenoid papulosis was the highest (11/11), followed by squamous cell carcinoma (78.26%, 18/23) and basal cell carcinoma (40%, 4/10) ; there was no significant difference in the initial misdiagnosis rate between different gender groups or different age groups (both P>0.5). A total of 367 patients underwent surgical excision under local anesthesia and all showed a good prognosis; the remaining 22 with malignant tumors were treated with photodynamic therapy, extended resection, free flap transfer, etc., and experienced no recurrence during the follow-up of 3 months to more than 3 years. Conclusions:Solid tumors in the perianal and external genitalia regions were polymorphous, melanocytic tumors, keratinocytic tumors and other tumors accounted for a large proportion, while malignant tumors were relatively rare, and some were easily misdiagnosed. Most of the tumors in the regions had a good prognosis, without recurrence after the surgical resection.
