ObjectiveTo analyze the effects of the progestin-primed ovarian stimulation （PPOS） protocol on embryo euploidy rate and clinical pregnancy outcomes in infertile patients. MethodsWomen who underwent Preimplantation genetic testing for aneuploidy （PGT-A） cycles were selected as study participants （a total of 656 cycles and 3 081 blastocysts）. Participants were divided into two age groups （≤35 years and >35 years） and further stratified by ovarian stimulation protocol： the Progestin-Primed Ovarian Stimulation （PPOS） group （n=48 and 60， respectively）， the Luteal Phase Long Protocol （LP） group （n=160 and 57， respectively）， and the Gonadotropin-Releasing Hormone Antagonist Protocol （AP） group （n=220 and 111， respectively）. Baseline characteristics， ovarian stimulation outcomes， and embryo development parameters were compared among the three protocols within each age group. Additionally， clinical pregnancy outcomes of the first frozen embryo transfer （FET） cycle were compared. The primary outcome measure was the embryo euploidy rate. Results① In the ≤35 years age group， baseline follicle-stimulating hormone （bFSH） levels were significantly higher in the PPOS group compared to the LP and AP groups， and the bFSH/bLH ratio was significantly higher in the PPOS group than in the AP group （P < 0.05）. In the >35 years age group， bFSH levels in both the PPOS and AP groups were significantly higher than in the LP group （P < 0.05）.② In the ≤35 years group， there were no significant differences in the rates of metaphase II （MII） oocytes， 2-pronuclei （2 PN） zygotes， cleavage， 2 PN cleavage， blastocyst formation， high-quality embryos， or embryo euploidy between the PPOS group and either the LP or AP groups. However， the PPOS group showed significantly lower values for the following parameters compared to the other two groups： total oocytes retrieved， number of MII oocytes， number of 2 PN zygotes， number of cleaved embryos， number of 2 PN cleaved embryos， number of blastocysts formed， number of high-quality embryos， number of high-grade blastocysts， number of transferable embryos， number of cryopreserved embryos， number of biopsied blastocysts， number of euploid embryos， and the rate of obtaining at least one euploid embryo. In the >35 years group， no significant differences were observed among the PPOS， LP， and AP groups in the rates of MII oocytes， 2 PN cleavage， blastocyst formation， or in the number of euploid embryos， euploidy rate， and the rate of obtaining at least one euploid embryo. However， the PPOS group had significantly lower numbers of total oocytes retrieved， MII oocytes， 2 PN zygotes， cleaved embryos， 2 PN cleaved embryos， blastocysts formed， transferable embryos， and cryopreserved embryos compared to the LP group （P<0.05）. The high-quality embryo rate was significantly lower in the PPOS group than in the AP group （P<0.05）. The numbers of high-quality embryos， high-grade blastocysts， and biopsied blastocysts were significantly lower in the PPOS group than in both the LP and AP groups （P<0.05）. Notably， the 2 PN fertilization rate was significantly higher in the PPOS group than in the AP group， and the cleavage rate was significantly higher in the PPOS group than in both the LP and AP groups （P<0.05）.③ No significant differences were found among the three groups in the biochemical pregnancy rate， clinical pregnancy rate， live birth rate， early miscarriage rate， and late miscarriage rate following the first FET cycle. ConclusionCompared to the other two protocols， the PPOS protocol does not significantly affect embryo euploidy or clinical pregnancy rates. However， in freeze-all cycles with PGT-A， the PPOS protocol does not reduce the rate of chromosomally normal embryos but may decrease the total number of available embryos. It may not be the optimal choice for younger women， but it can be considered as a viable option for women of advanced maternal age.

ObjectiveTo focused on patients with unexplained repeated implantation failure （URIF） and compare the clinical efficacy of different administration routes of granulocyte colony-stimulating factor （G-CSF） in patients undergoing frozen-thawed embryo transfer cycles. MethodsA retrospective case-control study was conducted. A total of 187 patients with URIF who received medical treatment were enrolled in this study. According to whether G-CSF was used on the day of endometrial transformation and its administration route in frozen-thawed embryo transfer cycles， the patients were divided into three groups： control group （without G-CSF， n=71）， subcutaneous injection group （subcutaneous G-CSF， n=72）， and intrauterine infusion group （intrauterine G-CSF infusion， n=44）. The pregnancy outcomes among the three groups were compared， and Logistic regression analysis was performed. ResultsThere were significant differences in biochemical pregnancy rates among the three groups （P<0.05）， indicating statistical significance in the overall comparison. In terms of numerical trend， the biochemical pregnancy rate was in the order： subcutaneous injection group > intrauterine infusion group > control group. Further pairwise comparison showed that only the difference between the subcutaneous injection group and the control group was statistically significant （P<0.017）， while no significant differences were found between the other groups （P>0.017）. The overall comparison of early miscarriage rates among the three groups also showed a significant difference （P<0.05）， indicating a statistically significant difference in the distribution among the groups. The numerical trend was： intrauterine perfusion group > subcutaneous injection group > control group. Pairwise comparison results showed that only the difference between the intrauterine perfusion group and the control group was statistically significant （P<0.017）， while there was no statistically significant difference between any other two groups （P>0.017）.Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that endometrial thickness on the day of transformation， number of transferred embryos， and subcutaneous G-CSF injection were independent factors associated with an increased biochemical pregnancy rate， where as age was an independent factor for a decreased biochemical pregnancy rate. For clinical pregnancy outcome， endometrial thickness on the day of transformation， number of transferred embryos， and subcutaneous G-CSF injection were also independent factors for an increased clinical pregnancy rate， while BMI was an independent factor for a decreased clinical pregnancy rate. ConclusionSubcutaneous injection of G-CSF only improved the biochemical pregnancy rate in URIF patients. Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that subcutaneous G-CSF injection was a favorable factor for clinical pregnancy rate in URIF patients； however， no significant improvement in clinical pregnancy rate was observed among the three groups. Both the comparison of pregnancy outcomes and the results of multivariate logistic regression analysis indicates that intrauterine perfusion of G-CSF has no significant therapeutic effect in the treatment of patients with URIF.

Objective Jejunal interposition is an important option for restoring gastrointestinal continuity in patients with complex esophageal cancer in whom the stomach is unavailable for reconstruction due to previous gastrectomy, tumor involvement, failed gastric conduit, or other constraints. Although the jejunum offers a caliber similar to the esophagus, a rich blood supply, and preserved peristaltic function, anatomical variations in mesenteric length and vascular arcades render long-segment and high-level reconstruction susceptible to excessive tension, mesenteric torsion, venous congestion, and inadequate distal perfusion. This consensus aims to provide standardized recommendations for the application of jejunal interposition in this specific patient population. Methods This consensus was developed in accordance with the WHO Handbook for Guideline Development and Chinese national guideline development standards, with reference to the Appraisal of Guidelines for Research & Evaluation Ⅱ(AGREE Ⅱ), Reporting Items for Practice Guidelines in Healthcare (RIGHT), and Scientific, Transparent and Applicable Rankings (STAR) checklists. The project was registered on the international practice guidelines registry platform (PREPARE-2026CN1384). The working group systematically searched Chinese and English evidence addressing 12 clinical questions. Evidence was graded using the Oxford Centre for Evidence-Based Medicine (OCEBM) 2009 system, with structured appraisal of risk of bias, inconsistency, indirectness, and imprecision. Recommendations were formulated through two rounds of Delphi surveys and a face-to-face consensus meeting, with an agreement threshold of ≥75%. Results The consensus generated 12 recommendations covering indications, selection between jejunum and colon, preoperative assessment, surgical approach and reconstruction route, pedicled jejunal interposition (PJI), supercharged pedicled jejunal interposition (SPJ), indocyanine green (ICG) perfusion assessment, perioperative nutrition, management of anastomotic leakage, long-term follow-up, and special treatment scenarios. Given that the available direct evidence is predominantly derived from single-center retrospective cohorts and case series, recommendations extrapolated from general esophagectomy or other gastrointestinal surgical evidence are deliberately phrased with caution. Conclusion Jejunal interposition is a safe and effective approach for digestive tract reconstruction in patients with complex esophageal cancer in whom the stomach is unavailable. This consensus emphasizes that clinical decision-making should be individualized based on the patient's prior treatment history, reconstruction height, vascular anatomy, technical availability, and institutional experience in the Chinese context.

Purpose: The genomic characteristics of uterine sarcomas have not been fully elucidated. This study aimed to explore the genomic landscape of the uterine sarcomas (USs). Materials and Methods: Comprehensive genomic analysis through RNA-sequencing was conducted. Gene fusion, differentially expressed genes (DEGs), signaling pathway enrichment, immune cell infiltration, and prognosis were analyzed. A deep learning model was constructed to predict the survival of US patients. Results: A total of 71 US samples were examined, including 47 endometrial stromal sarcomas (ESS), 18 uterine leiomyosarcomas (uLMS), three adenosarcomas, two carcinosarcomas, and one uterine tumor resembling an ovarian sex-cord tumor. ESS (including high-grade ESS [HGESS] and low-grade ESS [LGESS]) and uLMS showed distinct gene fusion signatures; a novel gene fusion site, MRPS18A–PDC-AS1 could be a potential diagnostic marker for the pathology differential diagnosis of uLMS and ESS; 797 and 477 uterine sarcoma DEGs (uDEGs) were identified in the ESS vs. uLMS and HGESS vs. LGESS groups, respectively. The uDEGs were enriched in multiple pathways. Fifteen genes including LAMB4 were confirmed with prognostic value in USs; immune infiltration analysis revealed the prognositic value of myeloid dendritic cells, plasmacytoid dendritic cells, natural killer cells, macrophage M1, monocytes and hematopoietic stem cells in USs; the deep learning model named Max-Mean Non-Local multi-instance learning (MMN-MIL) showed satisfactory performance in predicting the survival of US patients, with the area under the receiver operating curve curve reached 0.909 and accuracy achieved 0.804. Conclusion USs harbored distinct gene fusion characteristics and gene expression features between HGESS, LGESS, and uLMS. The MMN-MIL model could effectively predict the survival of US patients.

Sustained inflammatory responses are closely related to various severe diseases, and inhibiting the excessive activation of inflammasomes and pyroptosis has significant implications for clinical treatment. Natural products have garnered considerable concern for the treatment of inflammation. Huanglian-Wumei decoction (HLWMD) is a classic prescription used for treating inflammatory diseases, but the necessity of their combination and the exact underlying anti-inflammatory mechanism have not yet been elucidated. Inspired by the supramolecular self-assembly strategy and natural drug compatibility theory, we successfully obtained berberine (BBR)-chlorogenic acid (CGA) supramolecular (BCS), which is an herbal pair from HLWMD. Using a series of characterization methods, we confirmed the self-assembly mechanism of BCS. BBR and CGA were self-assembled and stacked into amphiphilic spherical supramolecules in a 2:1 molar ratio, driven by electrostatic interactions, hydrophobic interactions, and π-π stacking; the hydrophilic fragments of CGA were outside, and the hydrophobic fragments of BBR were inside. This stacking pattern significantly improved the anti-inflammatory performance of BCS compared with that of single free molecules. Compared with free molecules, BCS significantly attenuated the release of multiple inflammatory mediators and lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced pyroptosis. Its anti-inflammatory mechanism is closely related to the inhibition of intracellular nuclear factor-kappaB (NF-κB) p65 phosphorylation and the noncanonical pyroptosis signalling pathway mediated by caspase-11.

Objective To evaluate the clinical value of bedside ultrasonographic measurement of optic nerve sheath diameter(ONSD)combined with serum matrix metalloproteinase-9(MMP-9)and neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio(NLR)in assessing postoperative intracranial hypertension in patients with severe traumatic brain injury.Methods A total of 100 patients with severe traumatic brain injury were enrolled as study subjects.According to postoperative intracranial pressure status,the patients were divided into normal group(n=33)and elevated group(n=67).ONSD,MMP-9 and NLR lev-els were compared between the two groups.The correlations among ONSD,serum MMP-9 and NLR in the elevated group were analyzed.The influencing factors of postoperative intracranial hypertension in patients with severe traumatic brain injury were evaluated.Receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve analysis was performed to assess the diagnostic value of ONSD combined with serum MMP-9 and NLR for postoperative intracranial hypertension.Results ONSD,serum MMP-9 and NLR levels were significantly higher in the elevated group than those in the normal group(P＜0.05).ONSD was positively correlated with MMP-9(r=0.367,P=0.002),ONSD was positively correlated with NLR(r=0.419,P＜0.01),and MMP-9 was positively correlated with NLR(r=0.324,P=0.007).Elevated ONSD,serum MMP-9 and NLR were risk factors for increased in-tracranial pressure after severe craniocerebral injury surgery(P＜0.05).The area under the curve for evaluation of postoperative intracranial pressure increase in patients with severe craniocerebral in-jury by combination of ONSD,serum MMP-9 and NLR was 0.976(95％CI,0.952 to 1.000),the sensitivity was 91.04％,and the specificity was 93.94％.The combined evaluation value of ONSD,serum MMP-9 and NLR for increased intracranial pressure after surgery in patients with severe craniocerebral injury was higher(Zcombined with-ONSD=3.453,P=0.001,Zcombined with-MMP-9=3.637,P＜0.001,Zcombined with-NLR=2.654,P=0.008).Conclusion In patients with increased intracra-nial pressure after severe craniocerebral injury surgery,their levels of ONSD,serum MMP-9 and NLR increase,and the increase of the three indicators will increase the risk of increased intracranial pressure after surgery.The combined detection of the three indicators has certain value in evaluating the increase of intracranial pressure in patients after surgery.
