Chinese Journal of Urology 2024;45(9):707-708
At present, there are few reports on the surgical treatment of female urethral mucosal prolapse in China, and the selection of surgical methods and surgical plans need to be optimized. In this study, we retrospectively analyzed the data of 43 female patients with urethral mucosal prolapse treated by " three-way circumcision" in our hospital. The length of hospital stay was (10.02±2.23) days, the postoperative indwelling catheter was (6.42±0.88) days, and the postoperative hospital stay was (7.28±1.26) days. Only 2 patients had a prolonged hospital stay due to urinary tract infection after surgery. This surgical procedure has a short operation time, low surgical difficulty, few postoperative complications, low postoperative recurrence rate, and is generally simple, safe and effective.

The difficulty of wound healing in patients is a difficult problem that doctors in all clinical departments may encounter, and there is still no good solution. Resveratrol is a kind of natural active substance, which has anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, antibacterial, and angiogenesis promoting effects, and is a potential drug to promote wound healing. However, the clinical application of resveratrol is limited due to its low bioavailability. In this review, the molecular mechanism of resveratrol in promoting wound healing and its administration methods in wound treatment were reviewed to provide ideas for the redevelopment of resveratrol.

Objective:To understand the current situation of care needs for disabled elderly people, analyze the impact of the family environment and community services on the care needs and care pathways of older people with disabilities and to formulate effective interventions.Methods:A cross-sectional survey was conducted from August 2022 to March 2023 in five tertiary-level hospitals in Tangshan city. The survey included 332 elderly people who were disabled before hospitalization and their primary caregivers, who were selected using a convenience sampling method. The survey investigated their general information, degree of disability, family members′ support, children′s filial piety and old age ethical level, family relationships, and the care needs of the elderly people who were disabled. SPSS 22.0 was used for one-way and correlation analyses as well as multiple linear regression analyses, and AMOS 22.0 was used for the development of structural equations for path analysis.Results:Among 332 disabled elderly individuals, there were 166 males and 166 females each. The care needs score for elderly people with disabilities was 101.54 ± 16.38. The care needs of this population can be influenced by several factors, including the level of disability, number of chronic conditions, presence of chronic pain, filial piety and old age ethical level of caregivers, family relationships, and the availability of care services in the community or village. These factors had direct effects of 0.468, 0.155, -0.083, -0.350, -0.094, and 0.104, respectively.Chronic diseases and chronic pain indirectly affected the demand for care through the degree of incapacity (with respective indirect effect values of 0.065 and 0.049). Additionally, the demand for care was indirectly influenced by the level of filial piety and ethics of the caregiver through the degree of incapacity and the family relationships (an indirect effect value of -0.162).Conclusions:The care needs of the disabled elderly are high, and the personal physiology, family environment and community support of the disabled elderly will directly or indirectly affect their care needs. Therefore, many factors should be considered comprehensively considered to improve the quality of care of the disabled elderly.

Cell pyroptosis is a programmed death of inflammatory cells. Many members of the gasdermin family (the effector protein family that forms pores) participate in the pathological process of a variety of diseases, such as cancer, myocardial ischemia, renal injury, and osteoarthritis, mainly by activating cysteine aspartate-specific protease (Caspase) for polymerization and shear. Cell pyroptosis has bidirectional regulation. Induction of pyroptosis can promote cell clearance under pathological conditions (such as cancer and tumor cells), but long-term induction of pyroptosis can lead to abnormal lipid and related vitamin metabolism in vivo. Regulating the balance between cell pyroptosis and proliferation is an important target for traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) treatment of diseases. The Yin-Yang theory runs through the whole process of TCM diagnosis and treatment, which is used to explain the physiological and pathological changes of human body and guide the theory, diagnosis and treatment of diseases and health care. The balance between cell proliferation and pyroptosis is essentially the embodiment of Yin-Yang balance at the cellular level, and the theory of Yin-Yang spontaneous harmonization dominates the balance. TCM intervention on cell pyroptosis is mainly reflected in promoting and inhibiting cell pyroptosis, which has the same significance as Yin-Yang regulation. Based on this theory, this paper revealed the relationship between TCM inhibiting and promoting cell pyroptosis through the Yin-Yang theory, to provide theoretical support for the modernization of the Yin-Yang theory and new goals for the diagnosis and treatment of diseases.

Objective To investigate the risk factors of cognitive dysfunction in patients with traumatic brain injury. Methods From March to September, 2021, 556 hospitalized patients with traumatic brain injury were selected from a multicenter study. A 1∶1 sex-matched case-control study design was used. After assessment by Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA), those with cognitive impairment were as case group and those without cognitive impairment were as control group. They were collected general data and assessed with Social Support Rating Scale (SSRS) and Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS). Results Logistic regression analysis showed that college education or above (OR = 0.040) and high level of social support (OR = 0.118) were protective factors for cognitive impairment (P < 0.05). Aged 60 to 88 years (OR = 9.996), severe brain injury (OR = 7.345), headache after injury (OR = 2.159), frequent waking at night or multiple dreams ≥ three times per week (OR = 3.705), severe upper limb dysfunction caused by brain injury (OR = 6.072), depression (OR = 5.202) were risk factors for cognitive impairment (P < 0.05). Conclusion The related factors for cognitive impairment in patients with traumatic brain injury include general factors, disease factors, sleep, psychological and social support and other factors. It is suggested that in addition to the treatment of disease, it is necessary to improve sleep, psychology and social support, to reduce the incidence of cognitive impairment and promote the recovery of disease.

Objective:To analyse the material basis and potential mechanism of Acanthopanax senticosus injection (ASI) in the treatment of ischemic stroke by combining UPLC-Q/TOF-MS and network pharmacology.Methods:The chemical composition of ASI was identified by UPLC-Q/TOF-MS. The Swiss Target Prediction, GeneCards and OMIM databases were used to predict the potential targets for the action of ASI in the treatment of ischemic stroke. The String database and Cytoscape software were used to construct protein interaction network maps, and the Omicshare platform was used to perform gene ontology (GO) and KEGG enrichment analysis. The DockThor platform was used for molecular docking.Results:The analysis of 53 components in ASI was firmly established and used as a basis to obtain 189 related targets of ASI for the treatment of ischemic stroke. Reverse screening showed that 25 components in ASI may be important active components in the treatment of ischemic stroke. Functional enrichment studies found that ASI may mainly regulate PI3K-Akt signaling pathway to treat ischemic stroke.Conclusion:This study preliminarily predicted the mechanism of ASI in the treatment of ischemic stroke may be related to inhibition of inflammation, antioxidant stress, promotion of angiogenesis and protection of nerve cells.

Objective:To investigate the effectiveness of abdominal compression in tumor motion and the target volume, and analyze the suitable margins of planning target volume (PTV) for patients treated with lung-SBRT based on 4DCT.Methods:Patients diagnosed with peripheral pulmonary tumor were enrolled. The patients were divided into the whole group, upper-middle-lobe group (group A) and the lower-lobe group (group B). Each patient underwent 3DCT, 4DCT with abdominal compression (4DCT com) and 4DCT with free breath (4DCT free) scans. The GTVs were delineated and IGTVs on these images. PTV MIP 5 mm, PTV MIP 4 mm, PTV MIP 3 mm were constructed with a 5, 4, 3 mm margin in left-right (LR), anterior-posterior (AP) directions and cranial-caudal (CC) directions. Results:The median motion vector with compression reduced by 30.92% in whole group, increased by 3.42% in group A and reduced by 18.80% in group B, respectively. And there were no significant differences of TMA LR, TMA AP, TMA CC and motion vector by the Wilcoxon test ( P>0.05). The median sizes of IGTV MIP com , IGTV MIP free and IGTV10 com, IGTV10 free were 4.01, 5.36 cm 3and 6.59, 7.65 cm 3, with statistically significant difference ( Z=-3.45, -3.14, P<0.01). The median ratio of DI of IGTV CBCT com in PTV MIP 5 mm, PTV MIP 4 mm and PTV MIP 3 mm≥95% was 100%, 100% and 83.33%, respectively. Conclusions:The patients′ respiratory pattern changed with abdominal compression and abdominal compression is useful in reducing the size of IGTV MIP and IGTV10, which could reduce the target volume and protect the normal tissue. Adding a 4 mm margin to IGTV MIP com based on 4DCT account for respiration in SBRT is a tendency for precise radiotherapy.
