Objective:To discuss the role of changes of serum total bile acid(TBA)levels induced by long-term high-fat diet in the occurrence of supraventricular arrhythmia(SVA)in the apolipoprotein E knockout(ApoE-/-)mice,and to clarify its mechanism.Methods:Twenty ApoE-/-mice were randomly divided into normal diet group and high-fat diet(HFD)group(n=10);after 20 weeks of feeding,surface electrocardiogram was used to detect cardiac electrophysiology of the mice in various groups;echocardiography was used to detect cardiac systolic function and structure in the mice in various groups;enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA)was used to detect serum levels of blood lipids,total bile acid(TBA)and inflammatory factors in the mice in various groups;hematoxylin-eosin(HE)staining was used to detect cardiac inflammatory response in the mice in various groups;Masson staining was used to observe myocardial fibrosis degree in the mice in various groups.Results:Compared with normal diet group,4 cases of junctional premature beat(JPB)/junctional tachycardia(JT),1 case of premature atrial contraction(PAC)and 1 case of premature ventricular contraction(PVC)were found in HFD group,while only 1 case of JPB/JT and 1 case of PAC were found in normal diet group.Compared with normal diet group,the heart rate of the mice in HFD group was significantly decreased(P<0.05);the QRS and QT intervals were significantly prolonged(P<0.05);the ejection fraction(EF)and fractional shortening(FS)were significantly decreased(P<0.05);the end-diastolic volume(EDV)was increased(P<0.05),but there was no significant difference in end-systolic volume(ESV)between groups(P>0.05);the left ventricular internal diameter at end-diastole(LVIDd)and left ventricular internal diameter at end-systole(LVIDs)were significantly increased(P<0.05).There were no significant differences in plasma total cholesterol(TC),triglyceride(TG),high-density lipoprotein(HDL-c)and low-density lipoprotein(LDL-c)levels and body weight between normal diet group and HFD group(P>0.05).Compared with normal diet group,the TBA level of the mice in HFD group was significantly increased(P<0.05).There were no significant differences in interleukin-6(IL-6),tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α),monocyte chemoattractant protein-1(MCP-1),and C-X-C motif chemokine ligand 1(CXCL-1)levels between HFD group and normal diet group.Compared with normal diet group,the interleukin-1β(IL-1β)level in HFD group showed an increasing trend,but there was no significant difference between groups(P>0.05).The HE staining results showed that the inflammatory cell infiltration was similar between HFD group and normal diet group.The Masson staining results showed that compared with normal diet group,the fibrosis of the mice in HFD group showed an increasing trend,but there was no significant difference in myocardial fibrosis area between groups(P>0.05).Conclusion:Long-term high-fat diet may increase serum TBA level in ApoE-/-mice,which may induce SVA.

OBJECTIVE To preliminarily assess the horizontal sound localization and its influencing factors in patients with unilateral sudden sensorineural hearing loss during the acute phase.METHODS The azimuth discrimination test and azimuth identification test were completed,with the speech sound(65 dB SPL)as the stimulus.The minimum audible angle(MAA)and root-mean-square error(RMSE)were obtained,and the RMSE of the affected side and the healthy side were calculated respectively.According to the WHO(2021)hearing loss classification criteria,the data were analyzed based on the pure-tone average(PTA)of the affected ear.And the best resident hearing at each frequency of the affected ear was recorded.RESULTS The performance of the unilateral sudden sensorineural hearing loss patients in the sound localization varied greatly.Some performed close to the normal level,while others completely lost the ability to localize sound.The RMSE of the moderate hearing loss group(≥35 dB HL)was significantly higher than that of the normal hearing group(P<0.01),the MAA of the moderate to severe hearing loss group(≥50 dB HL)showed statistically significant differencescompared with normal hearing group(P<0.001).The RMSE of the affected side of patients in the severe and above hearing loss group was significantly larger than that of the healthy side.Regression analysis showed that the best resident hearing at each frequency of the affected ear was the most significant factor affecting MAA(R2=0.572,P<0.001)and RMSE(R2=0.768,P<0.001).CONCLUSION The horizontal sound localization of unilateral sudden sensorineural hearing loss patients in the acute phase varies greatly.When the PTA of the affected side reaches moderate hearing loss,the localization ability is significantly lower than that of normal-hearing individuals.The best resident hearing at each frequency of the affected ear is the key factor affecting the localization ability.

In the field of substance detection,ion dissociation techniques have become crucial for enhancing qualitative accuracy.By applying external energy to induce dissociation of ions in the substance being analyzed,the internal structural information can be obtained,thereby improving qualitative capabilities.Current research on ion dissociation techniques primarily focuses on tandem mass spectrometry,which typically requires a vacuum environment.However,research on ambient ion dissociation techniques is less developed,with some progress made in the field of tandem ion mobility spectrometry.Recently,the development of field-induced dissociation(FID)in this area has enabled ambient dissociation of various explosive and volatile alcohol ions.Nevertheless,the limitation imposed by the maximum breakdown field of air restricts the energy of the electric field,making it challenging to dissociate ions with high energy requirements,such as those of drugs.To address this issue,in this work,an ambient heat-induced dissociation(HID)technique based on high temperatures was proposed,in which an ambient ion heat-induced dissociation unit was developed and integrated into a home-made ion trap mass spectrometer.Experiments were conducted on four representative drug samples,e.g.methamphetamine,heroin,cocaine,and ketamine.The parent ions mass spectra,low vacuum collision-induced dissociation(CID)mass spectra and ambient HID mass spectra for each sample were obtained.By analyzing and comparing the fragmentation products from ambient and low vacuum dissociation,the feasibility of the ambient HID technique was verified.This technique provided a method for ion dissociation in single mass analyzers without tandem mass spectrometry capability and offered a new research direction for the future development of tandem ion mobility spectrometry.

Objective:To investigate the function changes in neurovascular coupling (NVC) in patients with white matter hyperintensities (WMHs) and its correlation with cognitive impairment.Methods:Thirty patients with moderate to severe WMHs admitted to the First People's Hospital of Changzhou from April 2023 to June 2024 (as case group), and 30 subjects with no or mild WMH matched by age, gender and educational level (as the control group) were included prospectively. The general clinical information was collected and cognitive assessment was conducted. Three-dimensional pseudo-continuous arterial spin labeling (3D-pCASL) and resting state functional magnetic resonance imaging (rs-fMRI) data were collected to quantify cerebral blood flow (CBF) and functional connectivity strength (FCS). NVC function was evaluated through voxel-wise CBF-FCS correlation analysis. The CBF-FCS coefficients between groups were compared, the correlation between NVC and cognitive function was explored using partial correlation analysis, controlling for the false discovery rate (FDR).Results:The prevalence of hypertension and diabetes in moderate to severe WMHs group was significantly higher than that in the no or mild WMH group (all P<0.05), while the overall cognitive function, executive function and episodic memory function were significantly lower than those in the no or mild WMH group (all P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the CBF-FCS coefficients of the whole brain gray matter between the moderate to severe WMHs group and the no or mild WMHs group. The CBF-FCS coefficients of the bilateral orbital frontal gyrus, right anterior cingulate gyrus, and bilateral hippocampus in the moderate to severe WMHs group were significantly lower than those in the no or mild WMHs group, while the CBF-FCS coefficients of the bilateral parietal gyrus and caudate nucleus were significantly higher than those in the no or mild WMHs group (all q<0.05 after FDR adjustment). Partial correlation analysis showed that after adjusting for age, gender, and education level, the CBF-FCS coefficients of the right anterior and lateral cingulate gyrus were negatively correlated with the executive function completion time in the moderate to severe WMHs group ( r=-0.55, q=0.04 after FDR adjustment), and the CBF-FCS coefficients of the right hippocampus were significantly positively correlated with the episodic memory scores ( r=0.59, q=0.03 after FDR adjustment). These correlations were not statistically significant in the no or mild WMHs group. Conclusion:Patients with moderate to severe WMHs exhibit NVC abnormalities in specific brain regions, which are closely associated with executive function and episodic memory impairment, suggesting that NVC dysfunction may be an important mechanism for WMHs-related cognitive impairment.

Severe open tibiofibular fractures account for approximately 28.1% of all open fractures. Among them, Gustilo-Anderson type IIIB/C fractures present significant clinical challenges due to associated bone and soft tissue defects, high infection rates, and risk of amputation. Inadequate preoperative assessment may lead to suboptimal emergency surgical planning or intraoperative complications. Historically, external fixation was often preferred, but this approach has been associated with limitations such as restricted joint mobility, delayed bone union, joint stiffness, and disuse osteoporosis, resulting in poor functional recovery. With advancements of debridement techniques, standardization of antibiotic use, and popularization of early soft tissue coverage, early internal fixation has gained broader acceptance. Nevertheless, controversies persist regarding the choice of fixation method, timing of definitive fixation, use of reamed versus unreamed intramedullary nailing, and necessity of fibular fixation. To standardize the diagnosis and early management of severe open tibiofibular fractures, reduce complication rates, and improve functional recovery, the Society of Microsurgery of the Chinese Medical Association organized a panel of domestic experts to develop the Evidence-based guideline for the diagnosis and early fixation of severe open tibiofibular fractures ( version 2025), using evidence-based methodology. The guidelines provided 12 recommendations covering diagnostic and early fixation strategies of severe open tibiofibular fractures, aiming to provide clinicians with scientifically grounded and standardized guidance.

Objective:To report the follow-up status of patients participating phase Ⅲ clinical trial (ZGDD3) of Donafenib tosilate (abbreviated as Donafenib) in the treatment of progressive radioactive iodine-refractory differentiated thyroid cancer (RAIR-DTC), and to explore its efficacy, safety and prognostic factors.Methods:This study was a randomized controlled trial, and the clinicopathological data and follow-up results of 29 patients (16 males, 13 females, age 40-68 years) who participated in the clinical trial ZGDD3 between August 2018 and March 2021 were analyzed. Patients were divided into Donafenib group and placebo group using the central dynamic randomization method with the ratio of 2∶1. Adverse reactions (AE) during the trial were observed. Independent-sample t test, Mann-Whitney U test and Fisher exact test were used to analyze the differences of baseline characteristics between the two groups. Progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) were followed up. Kaplan-Meier method was used to draw the survival curve (log-rank test) and Cox regression analysis was used to analyze the prognostic factors. Results:There were 22 patients in Donafenib group and 7 patients in placebo group. There were no significant differences of baseline characteristics between the two groups ( t values: -0.68, Z values: from -1.47 to -0.56, all P>0.05). The follow-up was 32.07(21.07, 49.85) months. During the trial, drug-related AEs occurred in all patients in Donafenib group, mostly was grade Ⅰ-Ⅱ, no grade Ⅳ or Ⅴ AEs were found. The median PFS was significantly longer in Donafenib group than that in placebo group (13.23 vs 4.03 months; χ2=9.68, P=0.002), and the median OS was 55.00 and 24.30 months respectively ( χ2=2.07, P=0.150). Metastasis to less common sites was the independent risk factor for OS (hazard ratio ( HR)=6.789, 95% CI: 1.272-36.246, P=0.025). Conclusions:Donafenib shows good clinical application in the treatment of RAIR-DTC, demonstrating good safety and efficacy. Metastasis to less common sites is closely related to OS.

Objective:To analyze the association of sedentary time and physical activity with the risk of developing chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) in non-smoking women aged 40 years and above in Songjiang District, Shanghai.Methods:Based on a natural population-based cohort in Songjiang, a total of 18 707 non-smoking women who were aged 40 years and above and without COPD at baseline survey were enrolled in the study. Cox proportional risk regression model was used to analyze the associations of the duration of sedentary behavior, physical activity with the risk for COPD at baseline survey, and the hazard ratio ( HR) of risk for COPD and its 95% CI were calculated. Stratified analyses were performed based on age, BMI, history of respiratory diseases and so on. Sensitivity analyses were conducted by excluding the cases diagnosed with COPD within one year after the baseline survey. Results:As of March 31, 2024, a total of 691 new COPD cases had been recorded after a median follow-up time of 6.96 years with an incidence density of 53.22 per 10 000 person-years. After adjusting for relevant confounders, in the tertile subgroups of sedentary time, the risk for COPD reduced by 17% in the short sedentary time group compared with the long sedentary time group ( HR=0.83,95% CI:0.70-0.99). Compared with the low physical activity level and long sedentary time group, the risk for COPD reduced by 24% in the high physical activity level and short sedentary time group ( HR=0.76, 95% CI: 0.61-0.95) and by 23% in the low physical activity level and short sedentary time group ( HR=0.77, 95% CI: 0.60-0.97). Compared with the non-physical exercise and long sedentary time group, the risk for COPD reduced by 28% in the non-physical exercise and short sedentary time group ( HR=0.72, 95% CI: 0.60-0.87). These associations remained when the cases diagnosed with COPD within one year of the baseline survey were excluded. Conclusions:Increasing physical activity and reducing sedentary time have beneficial effects to prevent COPD in non-smoking women, and reducing sedentary time alone may also reduce the risk for COPD if increasing physical exercise or other physical activity is not possible.

Objective: This study aims to evaluate the clinical benefits of the integrated optical and magnetic surgical navigation system in assisting transforaminal endoscopic lumbar discectomy (TELD) for the treatment of lumbar disc herniation (LDH). Methods: A retrospective analysis was conducted on patients who underwent TELD for LDH at Beijing Chaoyang Hospital, Capital Medical University from November 2022 to December 2023. Patients treated with the integrated optical and magnetic surgical navigation system were defined as the navigation-guided TELD (Ng-TELD) group (30 cases), while those treated with the conventional x-ray fluoroscopy method were defined as the control group (31 cases). Record and compare baseline characteristics, surgical parameters, efficacy indicators, and adverse events between the 2 patient groups. Results: The average follow-up duration for the 61 patients was 11.8 months. Postoperatively, both groups exhibited significant relief from back and leg pain, which continued to improve over time. At the final follow-up, patients’ lumbar function and quality of life had significantly improved compared to preoperative levels (p < 0.05). The Ng-TELD group had significantly shorter total operation time (58.43 ± 12.37 minutes vs. 83.23 ± 25.90 minutes), catheter placement time (5.83 ± 1.09 minutes vs. 15.94 ± 3.00 minutes), decompression time (47.17 ± 11.98 minutes vs. 67.29 ± 24.23 minutes), and fewer intraoperative fluoroscopies (3.20 ± 1.45 vs. 16.58 ± 4.25) compared to the control group (p < 0.05). There were no significant differences between the groups in terms of efficacy evaluation indicators and hospital stay. At the final follow-up, the excellent and good rate of surgical outcomes assessed by the MacNab criteria was 98.4%, and the overall adverse event rate was 8.2%, with no statistically significant differences between the groups (p > 0.05). Conclusion This study demonstrates that the integrated optical and magnetic surgical navigation system can reduce the complexity of TELD, shorten operation time, and minimize radiation exposure for the surgeon, highlighting its promising clinical potential.
