Thyroid-associated ophthalmopathy(TAO)is a common autoimmune complication in thyroid diseases. Its pathogenesis is complex and involves the abnormal activation of multiple signaling pathways. With the rapid development of molecular biology and genomics technologies, the signal transduction mechanisms and regulatory networks related to TAO have been deeply analyzed. At present, studies have found that the interaction between the TSH receptor(TSHR)and the insulin-like growth factor-1 receptor(IGF-1R)signaling pathway, as well as immune inflammation-related pathways, oxidative stress, and calcium signaling pathways, play important roles in the pathogenesis of TAO. In addition, the research on the regulatory mechanism of non-coding RNA and fibrosis-related signaling molecules has gradually become the focus. Despite much advancement, there are still many unsolved mysteries regarding the exact pathogenesis of TAO. This article aims to systematically review the latest research progress of the main signaling pathways of TAO. By combining the latest achievements in gene expression profiles, single-cell sequencing and drug design, it analyzes potential therapeutic targets and the development directions of innovative drugs, providing a theoretical basis for the pathological mechanism of TAO and a scientific basis for the optimization of clinical treatment strategies at the same time.

Objective To investigate the Meta-analysis of microRNA(miRNA)in distinguishing active tu-berculosis and latent tuberculosis.Methods CNKI,Wanfang Data,VIP,PubMed,Cochrane Library,Web of Science and Embase databases were searched to select the literature on miRNA in discriminating active tuber-culosis and latent tuberculosis from the establishment of the database to April 2023,and screened strictly ac-cording to the inclusion and exclusion criteria.The quality of included studies was assessed using the Quality Assessment of Diagnostic Accuracy Studies-2,and data extraction and summary analysis were carried out with Stata16.0 software.Heterogeneity among studies was evaluated by calculating I2,and the sources of heteroge-neity were further explored by Meta-regression and subgroup analysis.Publication bias was assessed using Deeks funnel plot.Results The Meta-analysis encompassed 9 articles,comprising 13 studies.The combined sensitivity of miRNA in differentiating active tuberculosis and latent tuberculosis was found to be 0.79(95%CI:0.69-0.86,I2=86.24%),with a specificity of 0.73(95%CI:0.64-0.81,I2=81.80%).The positive likelihood ratio was 2.96(95%CI:2.22-3.95,12=63.84%),while the negative likelihood ratio was 0.29(95%CI:0.20-0.41,I2=84.04%).Furthermore,the diagnostic odds ratio was 10.33(95%CI:6.43-16.61,I2=99.90%),and the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve was 0.83(95%CI:0.79-0.86).The results of Meta-regression and subgroup analysis showed that sample size may be the source of sensitivity heterogeneity,and dysregulation of miRNA may be the source of specificity heterogeneity.Deeks funnel plot showed no publication bias among included studies.Conclusion miRNA shows good diagnostic a-bility in distinguishing active tuberculosis and latent tuberculosis,which has important significance for impro-ving the development of diagnostic strategies for tuberculosis management.

To compare the performance of self-inflating bag (SIB) with T-piece resuscitator (TPR) in neonatal resuscitation.Methods:This study involved the trainees participating in a Neonatal Resuscitation Simulation Camp (NRSC) organized by Shanghai First Maternity and Infant Hospital in December 2019. They were trained to provide positive pressure ventilation with the two devices on artificial lungs. Ventilation parameters including peak inspiratory pressure (PIP), positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP), PIP in pulmonary alveoli (PIP alv), mean airway pressure (MAP), frequency, inspiratory time (Ti), tidal volume and minute ventilation volume were recorded and analyzed by independent sample t-test or rank sum test. Results:The PIP alv, PIP, oxygen flow rate, tidal volume and minute ventilation volume delivered by TPR were significantly lower than those by SIB [(17.18±1.61) vs (24.05±4.29) cmH 2O (1 cmH 2O=0.098 kPa), t=-6.87; (17.91±1.35) vs (29.97±4.50) cmH 2O, t=-14.06; (3.65±0.25) vs (6.88±1.59) L/min, t=-11.33; (15.90±1.81) vs (24.02±4.29) ml/min, t=-10.99; (664.71±88.94) vs (1 069.49±205.68) ml/min, t=-9.89; all P<0.001]. However, compared with SIB, the PEEP in pulmonary alveoli, Ti, duration of ventilation, inspiratory to expiratory ratio were increased when using TPR [(4.76(4.69-5.57) vs 0.19(0.12-4.10) cmH 2O, T=1 190.00; (0.59±0.15) vs (0.43±0.09) s, t=5.01; (1.46±0.23) vs (1.36±0.11) s, t=2.15; 0.71±0.22 vs 0.47±0.13, t=5.14; all P<0.05]. Conclusion:TPR could deliver more stable and safer PIP, PEEP and tidal volume than SIB and keeping MAP at a stable level during positive pressure ventilation on artificial lungs.

Objective:
To investigate the strong expression (S+) of P53 and BCL2 proteins in MYC/BCL2 double-expression DLBCL (DEL) and whether they can be used for the prognostic evaluation and stratified diagnosis of DELs.
Methods:
Tissue microarray were made by filed FFPE blocks of 174 DLBCL cases. The translocation of MYC, BCL2 and BCL6 genes were detected by FISH, and the proteins were detected by IHC. Data of clinicopathologic features and follow up of patients were collected and OS (overall survival) and PFS (progression free survival) were analyzed by statistics.
Results:
Eight double-hit lymphomas (DHLs) were identified in all cases, and 45 DELs were selected from 166 remaining cases, which have no significant difference in OS and PFS compared with non-DEL cases (

Based on an analysis of the compensation policy and its problems of the primary medical and health institutions, this paper put forward the corresponding reform framework in Zhejiang province. It proposed to change the compensation policy of " predefining revenue and expenditure, subsidizing its gap after performance appraisal" into " a mixed system of special subsidy and pay for performance". Related policies were also described including governmental functions, special subsidies for input-based payments, classified payments for output services, precautions against financial risks, etc. This paper also suggested that we focus on dealing with the six pairs of balance, such as that between subsidy for the supply and demand sides, and that between internal market and external market.
