We reported the clinical,imaging,and treatment process of a patient with severe cranial penetrating injury caused by a nail from a nail gun that accidentally shot into the eye and penetrated into the skull while working.The patient was admitted to the Qingpu Branch of Zhongshan Hospital,Fudan University after being injured by the nail gun.The patient was admitted to the hospital 1 hour after injury with coma.After admission,the foreign body was completely removed and part of the hematoma was cleared through emergency surgery.After surgery,there were high-risk complications such as cerebral edema peak,intracranial hypertension,intracranial infection,cerebrospinal fluid leakage,and intracranial pseudoaneurysm.The patient eventually regained consciousness and was transferred to rehabilitation treatment.

This study aims to innovate a homogeneous outpatient service management system across multiple hospital campuses to enhance service quality.Based on the practical experience of a tertiary general hospital in Guangdong Province and in accordance with the"Interim Regulations on Outpatient Quality Management in Healthcare Institutions,"we constructed a"6+1"homogeneous outpatient service management system.This system includes:① a multi-stakeholder co-governance outpa-tient management system,②a vertical and cross-hierarchical management network,③ a democratic-centralized clinical coordina-tion strategy,④ a guidance-encouragement performance evaluation standard,⑤a collaborative dynamic supervision mechanism,⑥a spiral retrospective evaluation and improvement method,and ⑦ an integrated outpatient diagnosis and treatment system.Af-ter over two years of implementation,the hospital's outpatient volume has grown by an average of over 15％annually,patient waiting time after appointment has been reduced to 20 minutes,and patient satisfaction in the tertiary public hospital performance evaluation achieved full marks.The electronic medical record system functionality reached Level 6,significantly improving healthcare service efficiency and quality while enhancing homogeneous management across campuses.

Objective To investigate the effects of ischemia time and storage periods on RNA quality in fresh-frozen breast cancer(BC)and esophageal cancer(EC)tissue samples in order to establish evidence-based protocols for biobank sample management.Methods The tumor(T)and paired normal(N)tissue samples from 6 cases of BC and 6 cases of EC were collected and cryopreserved in Biobank,Shantou Central Hospital.Mirror paraffin-embedded tissues were simultaneously prepared into sections for morphological analysis.The samples were divided into two groups of<15 min and 15-30 min according to ischemia time,and RNA quality was analyzed at 4 storage periods of 8-10 months(T1),14-16 months(T2),26-28 months(T3)and 38-40 months(T4).Results In 96 analyzed samples,93.8%(90/96)exhibited high quality(RIN≥6),with 89.6%(43/48)in BC and 97.9%(47/48)in EC.Significant differences in RIN were observed between BC group and EC group(8.050 vs.8.600,P=0.009).In EC group,RIN value was significantly negatively correlated with RNA yield(P<0.001).Moreover,RIN values of tumor-normal pairs exhibited markedly significant differences(7.550 vs.9.000,P<0.001).In contrast,no significant difference was detected in BC group(8.200 vs.7.700,P=0.348).Statistical analysis showed that RIN value was positively correlated with 28S/18S(P<0.001),but had no correlation with tumor content(P=0.676)and necrotic content(P=0.055).Neither ischemia time(<15 min vs.15-30 min:8.200 vs.8.300,P=0.932)nor storage periods(T1-T4:8.400,7.700,8.450,8.600,P=0.163)compromised RNA quality.Conclusion Organ origin and tissue type could influence RNA quality of fresh-frozen tissue samples.However,limited ischemia time(≤30 min)and long-term storage period(38-40 months)do not adversely affect RNA quality in fresh-frozen breast cancer and esophageal cancer tissue samples.

Objective To investigate the clinical efficacy and safety of facilitated percutaneous coronary intervention(PCI)with half-dose recombinant staphylokinase(r-SAK)in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction(STEMI)who are expected to undergo PCI within 120 minutes.Methods From October 2021 to August 2022,a total of 200 STEMI patients in eight centers were included and randomly assigned in a 1﹕1 ratio to either r-SAK group or control group.Patients received loading doses of aspirin and ticagrelor and intravenous heparin and were randomized to receive an intravenous bolus of either 5 mg r-SAK or normal saline prior to PCI.The outcomes were set as ST-segment resolution(STR)at 60-90 minutes after PCI,the proportion and transition of pathological Q waves on the 5th day after PCI,and the proportion of high-sensitivity cardiac troponin T(hs-cTnT)peaking within 12 hours of onset.The safety outcome was major bleeding events defined as Bleeding Academic Research Consortium(BARC)≥type 3 bleeding during hospitalization.Results Compared with the control group,the r-SAK group had a higher proportion of STR≥70%within 60-90 minutes after PCI(58.3%vs.40.3%,P=0.009);a lower proportion of pathological Q waves(59.1%vs.74.1%,P=0.040);a lower rate of Q wave progression(14.8%vs.43.2%,P＜0.001);a higher rate of Q wave disappearance(12.5%vs.3.7%,P=0.027);and a higher proportion of hs-cTnT peaking within 12 hours of symptom onset[31/40(77.5%)vs.17/33(51.5%),P=0.027].Regarding the safety outcome,no significant difference in BARC≥type 3 bleeding was found between the two groups during hospitalization(P＞0.05).Conclusions For STEMI patients who were expected to undergo primary PCI within 120 minutes of symptom onset,the facilitated PCI with half-dose r-SAK significantly increased the proportion of STR≥70%at 60-90 minutes after PCI,reduced the formation of pathological Q waves,and shortened the time to peak hs-cTnT,without increasing the risk of bleeding,which should be an alternative reperfusion strategy worthy of further study.

Depression is a highly heterogeneous psychiatric disorder with complex pathogenesis influenced by the interplay of biological,psychological,and social-environmental factors.Based on the 2021 edition of the Chinese Guidelines for the Prevention and Treatment of Depressive Disorders,which explicitly identify gender as a significant risk factor for depression onset,this paper systematically reviews the gender-differentiated pathogenesis and therapeutic advances in depression from both traditional Chinese medicine(TCM)and Western medical perspectives.In Western medicine,a large number of studies have demonstrated the sex-specific mechanism of estrogen/testosterone fluctuations and monoamine transmitter system regulation.While in TCM,although the constitution theory proposes that there are significant gender differences in congenital constitution and that qi depression and qi deficiency are associated with susceptibility to depression,current evidence primarily relies on cross-sectional surveys and lacks validation through high-quality RCTs.Compared with Western medicine,the direct research on gender-differentiated antidepressant effects in TCM remains relatively underdeveloped.In future study,it may be possible to deepen and improve the research on anti-depression in TCM from the biological markers of particular constitutions in the gender dimension.This paper advocates establishing a bio-psycho-social integrated intervention model,advancing mechanistic exploration through prospective cohort studies and multi-omics technologies,and promoting precision diagnosis and treatment systems based on gender differences,and to form a three-dimensional diagnosis and treatment and research system that covers biomarkers,social role assessment,and TCM constitution identification,in order to provide a new theoretical framework and a practical pathway for the precise medical treatment of depression.

To investigate the transcriptionally regulatory mechanism of the senp8 promoter in yellow cat-fish(Pelteobagrus fulvidraco);this study used P.fulvidraco as the research subject.Dual-luciferase re-porter assay and electrophoretic mobility shift assay were employed to analyze the functional activity of the promoter;coupled with in vivo experiments.The results indicated that the 2 045 bp senp8 promoter se-quence contained key transcription factor binding sites such as SP1;TATA-Box;CCAAT-Box;SREBP1;PPARα;and PPARγ.The binding sites of SREBP1(-901/-910 bp);PPARα(-1 291/-1 308 bp);and PPARγ(-1 292/-1 306 bp)in the senp8 promoter positively regulate its activity;and oleic acid or palmitic acid promote this binding.Furthermore;high-fat feeding promoted the expression of the senp8 gene and its protein in the liver of P.fulvidraco;oleic acid or palmitic acid treatment significantly en-hanced the activity of the senp8 promoter;and this enhancement could be achieved through the regulatory effects of SREBP1;PPARα;and PPARγ response elements.Additionally;high-fat feeding influenced the mRNA and protein expression levels of genes related to deSUMOylation modification in the liver of P.fulvidraco.This study provides new insights into the relationship between deSUMOylation modification and the regulation of lipid metabolism in the vertebrates.

Objective:To investigate the current situation of nuclear medicine practices, determine the number of nuclear medicine staff, conduct internal exposure monitoring and dose estimation for nuclear mecidine staff engaged in 131I treatment in Zhejiang province. Methods:A survey was conducted over all the 22 hospitals involved in 131I treatment in the province. The 131I activity in thyroid of 96 stafff in 131I treatment workplaces were measured by means of direct method. At the same time, the effective doses from internal exposure were estimated and the influencing factors were analyzed. Results:131I activity in thyroids was found to be above the detection limit for 49 staff (51.04%) in nineteen hospitals. The maximum value of 131I activity was 629.18 Bq. There was no statistically significant difference in 131I detection rate in thyroid of 131I treatment staff between different positions, different genders and different levels of hospitals ( P>0.05). Comparisons of 131I activity of thyroid of nuclear medicine staff for theatment of thyroid cancers had shown that the highest was for nurses, followed by technicians and doctors, and the lowest was for cleaning staff ( H=6.39, P<0.05). The estimated committed effective dose to the nuclear medicine staff ranged from 0.05 to 2.37 mSv, with those below 1 mSv accounting for 93.88% of the total. Logistic regression analysis showed that nursing position was the risk factor contributing to the committed effective dose ( OR=2.805, 95% CI 1.076-7.314). Conclusions:In Zhejiang province, the committed effective dose to thyroid of nuclear medicine staff from 131I internal exposure was not in excess of the dose limit. However, the staff performing iodine therapy still need to strengthen protection against internal exposure and take scientific and effective protective measures to reduce the risk of health hazards from internal exposure.

The da Vinci Surgical System provides surgeons with a three-dimensional image view with greater clarity, which improves surgical precision, particularly in confined surgical spaces. Compared to laparoscopic surgery, robotic surgery has a shorter learning curve and may be a better choice for surgeons. However, some surgeons are susceptible to laparoscopic experience when performing robotic surgery, which can diminish the advantages of the robotic system. We discussed some key issues such as indications, use of energy instruments, surgical approach, lymph node dissection, and digestive tract reconstruction, from the habit of laparoscopic surgery, in light of our team's experience with robotic radical gastric cancer surgery and the latest literature, in order to help beginners better understand the robotic surgical system.

Objective:To explore a simple emergency management method for elderly patients with sigmoid volvulus.Methods:The clinical data of 22 elderly patients (>70 years) with sigmoid volvulus from January 2020 to March 2024 in the Affiliated Hospital of Xuzhou Medical University were retrospectively analyzed. All patients were treated with a self-made simple closed-loop enema decompression kit. The abdominal circumference, white blood cell count and C-reactive protein (CRP) before treatment and 12 h after tube placement were measured. The patients were followed for 3 months, and the recurrence was recorded. The key indexes on recurrence, including age, American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) classification and procedure time, were compared. Pearson correlation analysis was used to examine the relationship between age, procedure time, pain level and gas/stool output within 30 min after tube placement.Results:All 22 patients successfully underwent transanal tube decompression. The procedure time ranged from 1 to 15 min. The gas and stool output within 30 min after tube placement was 600 to 2 100 ml, The rectal tube was retained for 2 to 6 d. Compared with before treatment, the abdominal circumference, white blood cell count and CRP 12 h after tube placement were significantly lower: (85.9 ± 9.6) cm vs. (94.5 ± 10.2) cm, (9.2 ± 2.1) ×10 9/L vs. (11.4 ± 2.5) ×10 9/L and (27.8 ± 22.6) mg/L vs. (46.2 ± 38.9) mg/L, and there were statistical differences ( P<0.01). Four patients underwent elective surgery, while 18 were discharged smoothly after tube removal. No death occurred within 1 month after treatment. Five patients experienced recurrence 3 months after treatment, all were successfully retreated using the same method and discharged. There were no statistical differences in recurrence rates between aged ≥80 years and aged < 80 years patients, ASA class ≥ Ⅳ and ASA class Ⅲ patients, or procedure times ≤5 min and procedure times >5 min patients ( P>0.05). The gas/stool output within 30 min after tube placement was positively correlated with pain level (moderate/severe vs. mild) before tube placement ( r = 215.50, P = 0.015), but showed no significant correlation with age or procedure time ( P>0.05). Conclusions:The self-made simple closed-loop enema decompression kit provides a straightforward, economical and minimally invasive emergency treatment method for elderly patients with sigmoid volvulus. For patients at very high surgical risk, this kit can achieve decompression and volvulus reposition, even in cases of recurrence.
