It was a retrospective study. The propensity score matching was applied to divide the type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients who have underwent percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) into two groups: short-term (<4 weeks) sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitor (SGLT2i) group (213 patients) and control group (213 patients). The occurrence of contrast-induced acute kidney injury (CIAKI) after PCI was compared between the two groups. The results showed that the incidence of CIAKI in the SGLT2i group was not significantly different from the control group [10.8% (23/213) vs. 7.5% (16/213), χ2=1.383, P=0.313]. The incidence of CIAKI in patients with SGLT2i application time <1 week was higher than that in control patients, but the difference was not statistically significant [13.00% (16/123) vs. 7.5% (16/213), χ2=2.734, P=0.122]. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that short-term (<4 weeks) use of SGLT2i would not increase the risk of CIAKI after PCI in T2DM patients ( OR=0.507, 95% CI 0.238-1.077, P=0.077). Short-term application of SGLT2i before PCI may not increase the risk of CIAKI, but it is advisable to avoid initiating the application of SGLT2i before PCI as much as possible.

Genitourinary tract infections caused by Chlamydia trachomatis ( Ct) are characterized by their insidious onset, mild symptoms, and prolonged disease course, making them challenging to treat effectively. Chronic persistent infections and associated complications impose a significant burden on both patients and society. Numerous studies have shown that relying solely on antibiotics as first-line therapy may not be sufficient to completely eradicate urogenital Ct infections. Additionally, antibiotic use can lead to the development of Ct resistance and disrupt the body′s microbial balance. Therefore, the development of novel Ct inhibitors is crucial. This review summarizes recent advances in research on Ct inhibitors, aiming to provide a valuable reference for both basic research and clinical treatment of urogenital Ct infections.

As an important part of the cause of socialism with Chinese characteristics,health care plays a basic strategic support role in China's modernization drive.Deepening the reform of the medical and health system is an important part of comprehensively deepening the reform.Therefore,it is a new starting point to further deepen the reform to explore the Marx's theoretical logic of Chinese medical reform from the logic of"two combinations"and find the basis of Marx's theory and the ideological power of Chinese excellent traditional culture for the"big country medical reform".Under the guidance of the logical logic of the"two combinations",the theoretical system of Xi Jinping's important treatises on health work is built,contributing to further enrich and develop Xi Jinping's thought of socialism with Chinese characteristics in a new era.

Objective:This meta-analysis aims to explore the most consistent changes in cortical thickness in drug-naive first-episode patients with major depressive disorder (DF-MDD).Methods:Systematic and comprehensive searches were conducted to acquire relevant literature from the PubMed and Web of Science databases for the studies published from inception to July 23, 2023, by using the keywords ("depression" OR "depressive disorder" OR "unipolar depression") AND ("cortical thickness"OR"thickness"). The SDM (signed differential mapping) software was used to perform whole-brain voxel-wise meta-analysis, heterogeneity test, and assess publication bias. Meta-regression analysis was employed to examine the impact of disease severity on cortical thickness in depression, and heterogeneity was tested, along with an assessment of publication bias.Results:Eight studies were ultimately included, encompassing 417 DF-MDD patients and 409 healthy controls. Compared to the healthy control group, DF-MDD patients exhibited significantly decreased cortical thickness in multiple brain regions, including the supplementary motor area ( Z=-2.471, P<0.000 5) and the rolandic operculum ( Z=-2.190, P<0.000 5). Further regression analysis found that the disease severity was positively correlated with the cortical thickness in the supplementary motor area ( Z=2.265, P<0.000 5) and the rolandic operculum ( Z=1.56, P<0.000 5). Additionally, the average depressive duration was positively correlated with cortical thickness in the right opercular part of the inferior frontal gyrus ( Z=1.922, P<0.000 5), and negatively correlated with changes in the right midcingulate cortex ( Z=-3.035, P<0.000 5) in DF-MDD. Conclusion:DF-MDD patients exhibit reduced cortical thickness in the supplementary motor area and the operculum area during the early stages of the disease. And the observed pattern of cortical alterations is associated with both the severity and duration of the disease.

Objective:To evaluate the new model of group screening combined with opportunistic screening for the diagnosis and treatment of gastric cancer.Methods:Group screening combined with opportunistic screening was used for gastric cancer screening. (1) Group screening. Cluster sampling was used to screen gastric cancer by endoscopy in high-risk population (aged 40-<70 years) of rural residents in Weihai from July 2017 to December 2020, and biopsy was obtained for histopathology if necessary. Main collection parameters included the detection rate of advanced gastric cancer, early gastric cancer and high-grade intraepithelial neoplasia (HGIN). (2) Opportunistic screening. The changes of the detection rates of early gastric cancer in opportunistic screening in 2 hospitals in Weihai area were observed during the same period of time.Results:(1) In group screening, from July 2017 to December 2020, the first batch of 8 000 cases of gastric cancer screening were completed. The cases of advanced gastric cancer, early gastric cancer and HGIN were 36, 28, and 62, respectively. The detection rates of gastric cancer and early gastric cancer were 0.80% (64/8 000) and 43.75% (28/64), respectively. The proportion of early gastric cancer+HGIN who received endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) was 77.78% (70/90), and the rate of curative resection was 100.00%(70/70). (2) Opportunistic screening: from July 2017 to December 2020, the annual early gastric cancer detection rates in opportunistic screening in Wendeng District Traditional Chinese and Western Medicine Hospital were 16.67% (1/6), 20.00% (3/15), 23.53% (4/17), and 33.33% (6/18) in the consecutive 4 years, respectively. The annual detection rates of early gastric cancer in opportunistic screening in Ru Shan Peoples Hospital were 14.74% (14/95), 23.80% (60/252), 25.49% (65/255), and 24.04% (50/208), respectively. The detection rates of opportunistic screening for early gastric cancer in hospitals in Weihai city increased year by year.Conclusion:In areas with high incidence of gastric cancer, a certain scale of group screening can lead to a wider range of opportunistic screening, resulting in the increase of the detection rate of early gastric cancer. The new model of diagnosis and treatment of gastric cancer is worth recommendation.

Objective:To predict the dose of lumbosacral spine (LS) and pelvic bone marrow (PBM) based on kernel density estimation (KDE) in patients with gynecological tumors.Methods:Fifteen patients with gynecological tumors receiving radiotherapy plans with dose limitation for LS and PBM in our hospital were selected as training data for machine learning. Another 10 cases were selected as the data for model validation. The minimum directional distance between the dose point in the organs and the edge of the planned target volume for the LS and PBM was calculated. Model training was performed by KDE. The accuracy of the model prediction was evaluated by the root mean square error. The model was utilized to predict the actual planned doses of the LS and PBM, and a linear fitting was performed on the predicted dose volume histogram (DVH) and actual results. The prediction effect was assessed by the goodness of fit R 2. Results:In terms of the DVH parameters required by the planner, the prediction doses from the model were similar to those of the verification plans: the difference of PBM V 40Gy was 2.0%, the difference of the mean dose was 1.6 Gy, and the difference of LS V 10Gy was -0.4%. In the unrequired DVH parameters, except for the PBM V 10Gy, the predicted values of the model were significantly high. The difference between the DVH predicted by the model and the actual plan was small, and the R 2 of the LS and PBM were 0.988 and 0.995, respectively. Conclusions:The model based on KDE method can accurately predict the doses of the LS and PBM. This model can also be used as a method to ensure the quality of the plan, and improve the consistency and quality of the plan.
