Objective To retrospectively analyze the clinical risk factors and prognosis of perioperative myocardial injury(MINS)in non-cardiac surgery patients admitted to the intensive care unit(ICU).Methods A total of 478 postoperative patients admitted to the Department of Intensive Medicine,Minhang Hospital,Fudan University from Jan 2020 to Dec 2023 were selected.They were divided into MINS group(n=302)and normal group(n=176)based on whether myocardial injury occurred within 7 days after surgery.The differences in clinical characteristics between the two groups were compared,and risk factors for perioperative myocardial injury were identified.Risk factors for mortality in the MINS group were analyzed with 30-day mortality as the clinical endpoint.Results The prevalence of acute physiology and chronic health evaluation Ⅱ(Apache Ⅱ)score,coronary artery disease,and chronic kidney disease were all higher in the MINS group than those in the normal group,with statistically significant differences(P<0.05).The proportion of emergency surgeries,co-infection,and perioperative hypotension were significantly different between the MINS group and the normal group(P<0.05).Multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that chronic kidney disease,emergency surgery,co-infection,and intraoperative and postoperative hypotension were risk factors for MINS occurrence.Prognostic analysis indicated that perioperative hypotension was a risk factor for 30-day mortality in MINS patients.Conclusion MINS is closely associated with patients'underlying conditions,timing of surgery,and perioperative hypotension status,and especially perioperative hypotension affects the final outcomes.

Albendazole-glucan particles(ABZ-GPS)and abendazole(ABZ)were used to treat secondary alveolar echinococ-cosis in mice.The therapeutic effects of ABZ-GPS on alveolar echinococcosis in vivo were evaluated,and the feasibility of using glucan particles as anti-hydatid drug carriers was further verified.Mice with echinococcosis were randomly divided into an ABZ group,glucan nanoparticle(GP)group,ABZ-GPS group,and control group.After four courses of administration with a final concentration of 50 mg/mL,the therapeutic effects of ABZ-GPS were evaluated on the basis of imaging,histopathological changes,ultrastructure,and immunology.After ABZ-GPS and ABZ administration,clear liver lesion tissue necrosis and large numbers of infiltrating lymphocytes were observed.Significant differences in the average cyst wet weight(t=7.83,P＜0.05),were observed between the ABZ-GPS group and ABZ group.Imaging revealed that ABZ-GPs were targeted to liver tissue.Pa-thology and ultrastructure analyses demonstrated that the alveolar hydatid cells in the liver in the control group and GP group grew well,and the vesicles were large,filled with cystic fluid,and translucent or transparent;the cyst wall tension was high;no calcification was observed;the stratum corneum and germinal layer were clear;and more fertile capsules and different num-bers of protocephalospora were present in the liver.In the ABZ group,the capsular cavity collapsed,and showed partial necro-sis and lymphocyte infiltration.In the ABZ-GP group,the corneum and germinal layer of echinococcus vesicles were difficult to identify,and we observed bulbous necrosis,central calcification,fibrous tissue hyperplasia,inflammatory cell infiltration,coarser,shorter or absent microvilli of the germinal layer,nuclear shrinkage,dissolution or disappearance,clear expansion of cytoplasmic microtubules,and myelin-like or vacuole-like changes.Therefore,ABZ-GPs showed good targeting and killing ac-tivity in vivo in mice with secondary alveolar coccosis.

Objective:An in vivo mammalian hepatocyte Unscheduled DNA Synthesis(UDS)test was used to evaluate the genotoxicity of Cross-linked Sodium Hyaluronate Gel and Bone Repair Materials,providing experimental evidence for establishing a UDS testing method for medical devices and materials.Methods:0.9％sodium chloride injection and cottonseed oil were used as the solvent for test materials and negative control,respectively.N-dimethylnitrosamine(NDMA)was used as the positive control for the early sampling times,and 2-acetylaminofluorene(2-AAF)was used as the positive control for the late sampling times.SD rats were administered a single dose for toxic exposure,and liver tissues were collected at 4 h and 16 h,respectively.Hepatocytes were isolated using collagenase perfusion.After labeling with 5-ethynyl-2'-deoxyuridine(EdU),and the net average fluorescence intensity(NAFI)of cell nuclei and nucleoplasm was measured by fluorescence microscope.Data from 50 cells were used to analyze the DNA repair level.Results:Compared with the negative control groups,the positive control groups(NDMA and 2-AAF)showed highly statistically significant differences in NAFI(P＜0.01),indicating successful induction of DNA damage.There was no statistically significant differences between the cross-linked sodium hyaluronate gel groups,bone repair material groups and the negative control group(P＞0.05),suggesting that these materials did not significantly induce DNA damage under the experimental conditions.Conclusion:This study first applied EdU labeling technology to the in vivo hepatic UDS assay,achieving non-radioactive labeling through click chemistry reactions.Under the conditions of this study,cross-linked sodium hyaluronate gel and bone repair materials did not exhibit genotoxicity.In the follow-up,the sample range can be expanded and the observation period can be prolonged to further improve the genotoxicity evaluation system of medical devices.

Objective·To compare the safety and short-term outcomes of robot-assisted versus laparoscopic-assisted proximal gastrectomy combined with double-flap esophagogastrostomy in the treatment of early upper gastric cancer.Methods·A retrospective cohort study was conducted to analyze the clinical and pathological data of 31 early gastric cancer patients who underwent proximal gastrectomy combined with double-flap esophagogastrostomy for gastrointestinal reconstruction at the Department of Gastrointestinal Surgery,Renji Hospital,Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine,from September 2023 to March 2024.Based on the surgical approach,patients were divided into the robot-assisted surgery group(robotic group,20 cases)and the laparoscope-assisted surgery group(laparoscopic group,11 cases).General clinical data,intraoperative conditions,and postoperative recovery between the two groups were compared.At the 6-month postoperative follow-up,upper gastrointestinal radiography and esophagogastroscopy were performed to assess anastomotic stricture and gastroesophageal reflux disease.Additionally,the gastric cancer-specific module of the European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer(EORTC),Quality of Life Questionnaire-Stomach 22(QLQ-STO22),was used to evaluate the patients' quality of life.Results·The general data of the two groups,including gender,age,preoperative comorbidities,American Society of Anesthesiologists(ASA)classification,Siewert classification,and pathological staging of tumors,showed no statistically significant differences(all P>0.05).All patients successfully underwent the procedure without conversion to open surgery.The time for gastroesophageal anastomosis was significantly shorter in the robotic group compared to the laparoscopic group[(31.09±8.23)min vs(43.73±8.83)min,P<0.001],while there were no statistically significant differences in other intraoperative and postoperative parameters,including operative time,intraoperative blood loss,number of lymph nodes removed,duration of gastric tube placement,time to start a liquid diet,length of postoperative hospital stay,and incidence of postoperative complications(all P>0.05).At the 6-month postoperative follow-up,30 patients completed the follow-up,with one patient lost to follow-up in the robotic group.Upper gastrointestinal radiography and esophagogastroscopy results showed that only one patient in the laparoscopic group developed an anastomotic stricture,while one patient in the robotic group developed grade A and one developed grade B gastroesophageal reflux disease(GERD).In addition,one patient in the laparoscopic group also developed grade B GERD.The incidences of GERD and anastomotic stricture showed no statistically significant differences between the two groups(both P>0.05).EORTC QLQ-STO22 results indicated that the robotic group had significantly lower scores in the dimensions of dysphagia,gastroesophageal reflux,and dietary restrictions,as well as in the total score,compared to the laparoscopic group(all P<0.05).Conclusion·Robot-assisted proximal gastrectomy combined with double-flap esophagogastrostomy is safe and feasible.It shortens anastomosis time and offers potential advantages in postoperative functional recovery and quality of life improvement.

Objective:To develop rat models of oral mucosa ulcer using distinct experimental methodologies,fulfilling research requirements and adhering to the ethical standards for animal care.Methods:96 SD rats were randomly allocated into groups.The rats in control group(n=8)were regularly fed without other treatment.Those in chemical cauterization groups were treated by 20％,40％,60％of glacial acetic acid(GAA)on oral mucosa(n=8);in mechanical damage groups by 30 000 r/min high speed drill induced trauma of 10,20 and 30 mm2 respectively(n=8);in ionizing radiation groups were treated with 10,12,15,20 and 30 Gy on the mucosa respectively(n=8).After the ulcer was appeared,the morphology of the mucosa were observed,the mucosal tissue lesions were examined by HE,Masson and immunofluorescence staining,the expression of TNF-α and IL-1β were detected by qPCR and ELISA respectively,and the body conditions such as diet and body weight of the rats were observed,the pain,dis-tress and discomfor of the rats were evaluated by MORTON&Griffits Guidelines.Results:40％and 60％GAA,20 mm2 and 30 mm2 friction damage and ionizing radiation of 12 Gy or greater may induce oral mucosa ulcer with a diseas coruse of 6-7 d in SD rats.TNF-α and IL-1β mRNA expression in the damaged tissue,the related protein expression in blood serum of the rats were in-creased.MORTON&Griffits Guidelines analysis showed 40％GAA,20 mm2 friction damage and 12 Gy ionizing radiation induced the lowest scores of pain,distress and discomfort of the rats with compatible oral mocosa ulcere induced by the relevat treatment.Conclusion:40％GAA,20 mm2 of friction damage and 12 Gy of ionizing radiation can reliably establish oral mucosa ulcer models and minimize adverse effects on SD rats,and accord with ethical standards of 3R for laboratory animal.

BACKGROUND:The extracellular-regulated protein kinase 5(ERK5)signaling protein is essential for the survival of organisms,and resveratrol can promote osteoblast proliferation through various pathways.However,whether resveratrol can regulate osteoblast function through the ERK5 signaling protein needs further verification. OBJECTIVE:To explore the regulatory effect of ERK5 on the proliferation of MC3T3-E1 cells and related secreted proteins,and to further verify whether resveratrol can complete the above process by activating ERK5. METHODS:Mouse MC3T3-E1 preosteoblasts were treated with complete culture medium,XMD8-92(an ERK5 inhibitor),epidermal growth factor(an ERK5 activator),resveratrol alone,XMD8-92+EGF,and resveratrol+XMD8-92,respectively.Western blot assay was used to detect the expression of ERK5 and p-ERK5 proteins,proliferation-related proteins Cyclin D1,CDK4 and PCNA,and osteoblast-secreted proteins osteoprotegerin and receptor activator of nuclear factor-κB ligand in MC3T3-E1 cells of each group.The fluorescence intensity of ERK5,osteoprotegerin and receptor activator of nuclear factor-κB ligand in each group was detected by cell immunofluorescence staining,and cell proliferation was detected by EdU staining,respectively.The appropriate concentration and time of resveratrol intervention in MC3T3-E1 cells were determined by cell morphology observation and cell counting kit-8 assay. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The activation of ERK5 signaling protein could effectively promote the proliferation of MC3T3-E1 cells,up-regulate the osteoprotegerin/receptor activator of nuclear factor-κB ligand ratio.The appropriate concentration and time for resveratrol intervention in MC3T3-E1 cells was 5 μmol/L and 24 hours,respectively.Resveratrol could activate ERK5 signaling protein,thereby promoting osteoblast proliferation and up-regulating the osteoprotegerin/RANKL ratio.All these results indicate that resveratrol can promote the proliferation of MC3T3-E1 cells and up-regulate the osteoprotegerin/RANKL ratio by activating the ERK5 signaling protein.

Objective:To compare the differences in the evaluation of hemolysis performance of cellulose hemostatic materials using different detection methods and test media,and to explore a m ore reasonable testing plan for such products.Methods:Hemolysis tests were conducted on cellulose hemostatic materials using the absorbance measurement hemolysis method and hemoglobin concentration measurement hemolysis method in accordance with YY/T 1651.1-2019 standard.We compared the changes in hemolysis rate,pH value,and osmotic pressure under different experimental media.Results:Under the same experimental method,compared to SC,the hemolysis results using PBS as the extraction medium are smaller,and the changes in pH and osmotic pressure are closer to the normal range of human body changes.Conclusions:The changes in pH and osmotic pressure may be one of the reasons for the high hemolysis rate of cellulose hemostatic materials.Choosing PBS with buffering effect as the leaching medium may be more suitable for evaluating the hemolysis performance of cellulose hemostatic materials.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the clinical effect of minimally invasive technique in the treatment of moderate and severe gluteal muscle contracture. METHODS: A retrospective study was conducted on 85 patients (170 sides) with bilateral gluteal muscle contracture admitted from January 2016 to December 2019. All patients were treated with minimally invasive release of tendon knife. There were 32 males and 53 females, ranging in age from 15 to 37 years old, with an average age of (22.3±6.3) years old. Operation time, intraoperative blood loss, incision length, first postoperative ambulation time, complication rate, recurrence rate, and Harris hip score (HHS) were analyzed and evaluated. RESULTS: The average follow-up time was (16.2±4.6) months, ranging from 12 to 30 months. The operation time ranged from 7 to 15 min, with an average of (10.2±3.1) min. Intraoperative blood loss ranged from 2 to 20 ml, with an average of (8.4±2.2) ml. The incision length ranged from 0.6 to 2.0 cm, with an average of (0.8±0.3) cm. The time to postoperative ambulation ranged from 12 to 28 h, with an average of (20.0±3.2) h. All patients achieved primary wound healing without sciatic nerve injury or recurrence. HHS hip function scores ranged from 90 to 98, with an average score of (96.2±1.4). Complications included intraoperative tendon blade tip fracture in two cases (removed under fluoroscopic guidance) and subcutaneous hematoma in three cases-two resolved with compression and one with open evacuation.. Twenty-nine patients exhibited transient swaying gait postoperatively, of which 24 patients returned to normal after 4 weeks and 5 patients returned to normal after 6 weeks. CONCLUSION Minimally invasive tendon blade release is a safe and effective technique for treating gluteal muscle contracture, offering minimal trauma, rapid recovery, and excellent cosmetic and functional outcomes. However, it exhibits a low risk of blade tip fracture and sciatic nerve injury, warranting experienced surgical handling.
