Objective:To detect the expression of sialylated CD15 (CD15s) in the tumor cells of classical Hodgkin lymphoma using a modified immunohistochemical approach.Methods:From 2009 to 2024, 53 cases of classical Hodgkin lymphoma were collected in the Department of Pathology, Peking University Cancer Hospital, in which 21 cases that were CD15-negative or showed only focal weak positivity were selected. Immunohistochemical staining for CD15 was performed on a Leica automated stainer using three different antibody clones (MMA, Carb3, and IHC527). Tissue sections were digested with sialidase at varying concentrations and incubation times, followed by immunohistochemical staining with the MMA clone. Multiplex immunofluorescence was applied for co-staining of CD15 (MMA) and CD30 (JCM182), and analysis was conducted using APTIME and HALO software.Results:There were 30 male patients and 23 female patients, with an age range of 14 to 73 years and a median age of 32(26,46) years. None of the three CD15 antibody clones significantly improved the CD15 positive rate in the 14 completely negative and 7 weakly positive cases, with no notable differences observed among the clones( P>0.05). After sialidase digestion, tissue morphology remained well-preserved. Optimal CD15 staining was achieved with a 1∶1 diluted sialidase incubated at 37 ℃ for one hour. This treatment significantly enhanced the detection rate of CD15 antigen in Hodgkin Reed-Sternberg cells ( P<0.001). Conclusion:Sialidase digestion effectively unveils sialylated CD15 expression in classical Hodgkin lymphoma, markedly improving its detection in HRS cells.

Tumor microenvironment(TME)is the cellular environment for tumor development,growth,and metastasis.Adenosine(ADO)is an immunosuppressive metabolic product that is continuously upregulated in TME,with various types and wide distribution of receptors.The complex and dynamic interactions between ADO and tumor cells constantly influence tumor progression.ADO can di-rectly or indirectly promote tumor development and progression by promoting tumor generation and metastasis,mediating the immune escape of tumor,and modulating tumor-infiltrating immune cells.Based on the characteristics of ADOs in TME,this article reviews the latest advances in the dynamic alterations of ADO in TME,in order to provide insights into tumor treatment targeting the ADO pathway.

Objective:To evaluate the effectiveness of a rotation training program for primary care general practitioners (GPs) in Taizhou, China, designed around three core competencies.Methods:A longitudinal study was conducted. A total of 111 primary care GPs participating in the 1st to 5th sessions of the Taizhou GP rotation training program at Taizhou Hospital (the designated training center) in Zhejiang Province from July 2022 to December 2024 were included. Based on the World Organization of Family Doctors (WONCA) competency model, combined with literature review and expert consultation, 15 potential training components were identified. A needs assessment survey among primary care GPs was then conducted, leading to the finalization of three core competencies for the training: ①Evidence-based management of common diseases, frequently-occurring diseases, and common symptoms; ②Early identification, management, and referral of critically ill patients; ③Chronic disease management and health promotion capabilities. A 4-month full-time immersion training program was structured around these competencies, comprising three phases: theoretical training (1 week), clinical comprehensive skills training (14 weeks), and primary care practice training (1 week). Assessments included a pre-and post-training theoretical knowledge test and a final clinical assessment. The final assessment utilized a three-station Objective Structured Clinical Examination (OSCE) evaluating patient consultation, clinical reasoning & decision-making, and clinical procedural skills. A self-administered satisfaction survey was also distributed post-training.Results:The 111 participants were predominantly aged 30-49 years (72.1% (80/111)), held bachelor′s degrees (87.4% (97/111)), were licensed physicians (78.4% (87/111)), and had junior or intermediate professional titles (87.4% (97/111)). Post-training theoretical scores were significantly higher than pre-training scores (76.26±7.00 vs. 69.94±6.40, t=-10.45, P<0.001). All participants 100%(111/111) passed the final OSCE assessment. The mean scores for the OSCE stations were: patient consultation 85.99±7.30, clinical reasoning & decision-making 82.72±7.61, and clinical procedural skills 89.60±5.65. Satisfaction rates were 100.0% (111/111) for the overall program, the three-phase design, the core competency training content, theoretical training, clinical skills training, and clinical rotation departments. Satisfaction was 98.2% (109/111) for the 4-month full-time duration, 99.1% (110/111) for the "2+X" clinical rotation model (2 weeks each in General Practice and Emergency Medicine+elective rotations in 4 other departments), and 97.3% (108/111) for the primary care practice base. Conclusions:The competency-based rotation training program for primary care GPs in Taizhou effectively enhanced participants′ theoretical knowledge and clinical practical skills, and achieved high levels of participant satisfaction. This model offers valuable insights for optimizing primary care GP training in similar settings.

Objective:To investigate the effectiveness of the S-PAL model (combining a student standardized patient with peer assisted learning) in experimental teaching of physical diagnostics.Methods:Eighty-four undergraduate students of grade 2022 in clinical medicine of Chongqing Medical University were divided into experimental group ( n=44, experimental class teaching combined with S-PAL model-based autonomous practice) and control group ( n=40, experimental class teaching combined with traditional autonomous practice). Performance evaluation and teaching feedback and satisfaction survey were conducted. SPSS 27.0 was used to perform the t-test, chi-square test, and Fisher's exact test. Results:There were no significant differences between the two groups in terms of age, sex, the grade point average, and pre-training theoretical scores. The academic assessment score of the experimental group (66.34±15.45) was significantly higher than that of the control group (55.12±15.02). The experimental group was superior to the control group in clinical skills assessed with the mini-clinical evaluation exercise. The experimental group had a higher degree of satisfaction with teaching than the control group. The experimental group highly accepted autonomous practice based on the S-PAL model.Conclusions:The S-PAL model can improve medical undergraduates' academic performance and satisfaction with teaching in physical diagnostics, and also promote their doctor-patient communication skills, which is a good self-learning model as a complement to physical diagnostics teaching.

To evaluate the advantages of using PBL case library in teaching circulatory system diseases to clinical medicine undergraduate students, a PBL case library was established and applied in teaching practice in the reform of circulatory system teaching. The PBL case library achieved the characteristics of combining theories with cases, morphology with functions, and basic knowledge with clinical knowledge. The PBL case library also realized the informatization, query, and update of cases. Preliminary application showed that the median practical score of students in the case library group was 94.00 points, which was significantly higher than the 92.00 points in the control group ( P=0.005). The average lesson preparation time for teachers in the case library group was (5.00±1.00) hours, which was significantly shorter than the (6.89±0.42) hours in the control group ( P<0.001). The difficulty score for lesson preparation among teachers in the case library group was significantly lower than that of the control group [(1.89±1.05) vs. (3.22±0.44), P<0.001]. However, there were no significant difference in theoretical scores and student satisfaction with teachers and courses. These results suggest that the construction of case library can improve practical teaching effectiveness and enhance the efficiency of lesson preparation for teachers.

Anxiety disorders are one of the most epidemic and chronic psychiatric disorders. An incomplete understanding of anxiety pathophysiology has limited the development of highly effective drugs against these disorders. GPR17 has been shown to be involved in multiple sclerosis and some acute brain injury disorders. However, no study has investigated the role of GPR17 in psychiatric disorders. In a well-established chronic restraint stress (CRS) mouse model, using a combination of pharmacological and molecular biology techniques, viral tracing, in vitro electrophysiology recordings, in vivo fiber photometry, chemogenetic manipulations and behavioral tests, we demonstrated that CRS induced anxiety-like behaviors and increased the expression of GPR17 in basolateral amygdala (BLA) glutamatergic neurons. Inhibition of GPR17 by cangrelor or knockdown of GPR17 by adeno-associated virus in BLA glutamatergic neurons effectively improved anxiety-like behaviors. Overexpression of GPR17 in BLA glutamatergic neurons increased the susceptibility to anxiety-like behaviors. What's more, BLA glutamatergic neuronal activity was required for anxiolytic-like effects of GPR17 antagonist and GPR17 modulated anxiety-like behaviors via BLA to ventral hippocampal CA1 glutamatergic projection. Our study finds for the first and highlights the new role of GPR17 in regulating anxiety-like behaviors and it might be a novel potential target for therapy of anxiety disorders.

Objective To establish an improved type Ⅱ cardio-renal syndrome rat model and evaluate it.Methods Twenty male SD rats were randomly divided into sham and model groups with 7 rats in the sham group and 13 rats in the model group.The model group received the method of squeezing the heart under a small animal anesthesia machine to permanently ligate the left anterior descending branch of the coronary artery to cause myocardial infarction.One week later,unilateral nephrectomy(right nephrectomy)was performed.The rats underwent cardiac echocardiography,pathological staining,and blood and urine tests at 6 weeks to verify model establishment.Results Compared with the sham group,the cardiac function assessed by echocardiography and the endogenous creatinine clearance rate in the model group rats were significantly decreased(P<0.01),and the levels of brain natriuretic peptide,blood creatinine,urea nitrogen,and 24 h urine protein in the model group were significantly increased(P<0.01).HE staining revealed a disordered myocardial arrangement,glomerular atrophy,and inflammatory cell infiltration in model group rats.Picric acid-Sirius red staining showed a significant increase in myocardial collagen fibers,an irregular arrangement of renal tubules,and a large amount of collagen deposition in model group rats.The positive staining area ratio was also significantly increased(P<0.01).Conclusions This improved modeling method provided a typeⅡcardio-renal syndrome rat model with s simple operation,minimal surgical trauma,and low mortality rate.This model simulates the early onset of cardiac and renal function damage and pathological changes in type Ⅱ CRS,laying the foundation for systematic and in-depth research on the pathogenesis and pathological mechanism of type Ⅱ cardio-renal syndrome.
