Objective To analyze the effect of releasing the lower pulmonary ligament on right residual lung expansion after right upper lobe resection under different body mass index (BMI) levels. Methods The clinical data of patients who underwent thoracoscopic right upper lobe resection in the First Affiliated Hospital with Nanjing Medical University from 2021 to 2022 were retrospectively analyzed. Patients were divided into a group A (17 kg/m2＜BMI≤23 kg/m2), a group B (23 kg/m2＜BMI≤29 kg/m2) and a group C (BMI＞29 kg/m2) according to BMI. The presence of residual cavity was judged by chest X-ray at 7-10 days after operation, the degree of compensation change of the right main bronchus angle was measured, and the changes in lung volume were determined by CT three-dimensional reconstruction. Results A total of 157 patients who underwent thoracoscopic right upper lobe resection were included, including 71 males and 86 females, with an average age of (59.7±11.2) years. There were 50 patients in the group A, 75 patients in the group B, and 32 patients in the group C. In the group A, compared with those without releasing the lower pulmonary ligament, patients with releasing had a lower incidence of postoperative residual cavity (P=0.016), greater changes in bronchus angle (P<0.001), and smaller changes in lung volume (P<0.001). In the group B and C, there was no significant effect of releasing the lower pulmonary ligament on postoperative residual cavity, bronchus angle, and lung volume changes (P>0.05). Conclusion For patients with thin and long body shape and low BMI, releasing the lower pulmonary ligament is helpful to promote the expansion of the residual lung after right upper lobe resection and reduce the occurrence of postoperative residual cavity in patients.

Objective To analyze the efficacy, safety, and learning curve of the three-lobe holmium laser enucleation of the prostate(HoLEP)in the treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia(BPH)in a county-level hospital.Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of 65 BPH patients who underwent the three-lobe HoLEP performed by a single surgeon at the Department of Urology, Yining County People's Hospital, during Dec.2023 and Jun.2024.The enucleation efficiency was calculated by dividing the weight of the enucleated prostatic tissue by the enucleation time.A case scatter diagram of enucleation efficiency was plotted according to the chronological order of the operations, and the learning curve was analyzed after fitting.Based on the inflection points of the learning curve, the learning process was divided into the initial learning, mastery, and proficiency phases.The basic clinical data, perioperative indicators, postoperative complications, and follow-up indicators were compared among the different learning phases.Results All 65 procedures were successfully completed.Marked by the enucleation efficiency reaching a plateau, cases 1-20 were defined as the initial learning phase, cases 21-40 as the mastery phase, and cases 41 onwards as the proficiency phase.The prostate volume in the proficiency phase was significantly larger than that in the initial learning and mastery phases(both P＜0.05).There were no statistically significant differences in other baseline characteristics among the three groups(all P＞0.05).The operation time [(105.50±19.12)min vs.(85.25±26.92)min vs.(69.00±23.58)min] and enucleation time [(76.90±14.19)min vs.(63.70±22.24)min vs.(48.80±20.48)min] showed a decreasing trend across the three groups(all P＜0.05).The enucleation efficiency in both the mastery and proficiency phases was significantly higher than that in the initial learning phase [(1.16±0.44)g/min vs.(0.85 ±0.25)g/min, P＜0.05;(1.36±0.49)g/min vs.(0.85±0.25)g/min, P＜0.05].The enucleation efficiency in the proficiency phase was slightly higher than that in the mastery phase, but the difference was not statistically significant(P= 0.389).There was no significant difference in the incidence of perioperative complications among the three groups(all P＞0.05).At the 6-month follow-up, the international prostate symptom score(IPSS), post-void residual(PVR), and maximum urinary flow(Qmax)were significantly improved compared to preoperative values in all three groups(all P＜0.05);however, no significant differences were observed among the three groups(all P＞0.05).Conclusion The three-lobe HoLEP for the treatment of BPH is safe and effective in a county-level hospital setting.Surgeons with some experience in endoscopic surgery can preliminarily master this technique after a learning period of approximately 20 procedures.

Objective To explore the correlation between triglyceride-glucose(TyG)index and hyperuricemia in men with normal fasting blood glucose(FPG)levels.Methods A total of 309 men with normal FPG who participated in a health examination at the Ninth Medical Center of the People's Liberation Army General Hospital in April 2024 were enrolled in this study.All the subjects were divided into the normal uric acid(NUA,n=218)group and the hyperuricemia(HUA,n=91)group according to serum uric acid(SUA)levels.Results Scr,TG,weight,SBP,DBP,BMI,ALT,AST,γ-GGT,and TyG index were higher in the HUA group than in the NUA group(P<0.05).Pearson and Spearman correlation analysis showed that SUA were positively correlated with Scr,eGFR,TG,weight,SBP,DBP,BMI,ALT,AST,γ-GGT and TyG(P<0.05),and negatively correlated with HDL-C(P<0.05).Logistic regression analysis showed that after adjusting for confounding factors,TyG index remained an important influencing factor for HUA.ROC curve analysis showed that the area under the ROC curve of TyG index predicting hyperuricemia in men with normal FPG was 0.665,with an cutoff value of 8.45.Conclusions TyG index in men with normal FPG are influencing factors for hyperuricemia,indicating that hyperuricemia has a close association with insulin resistance,and is an important component of metabolic syndrome.

Objective:To analyze the clinical and ultrasonic features of breast invasive ductal carcinoma in young women patients,and improve the accuracy of ultrasonic diagnosis of breast invasive ductal carcinoma in young patients.Methods:A retrospective study was conducted on patients with invasive ductal carcinoma who underwent surgery in the Second Hospital of Shandong University from December 2015 to June 2023,with complete clinical data,preopera-tive ultrasonography and postoperative pathology.All patients were divided into two groups:young group(≤35 year-old)and control group(>35 year-old).Univariate t-test and multivariate Logistic regression analyses were used to assess the factors.Results:There was a statistical difference between the young group and the control group in the accuracy of ultrasound diagnosis(young group 81%vs control group 94%,χ2=13.082,P=0.001).Compared with the control group,the young group had a shorter disease history,a higher proportion of multiple masses,posterior echo changes and hypo-vascular lesions(P<0.05).However,there was no statistical difference in family history of breast cancer,other cancer family history,clinical symptoms,size,lesion classification,palpation,location,aspect ratio,focus echo,shape,edge per-formance,bright ring sign,calcification characteristics,ER,PR,HER-2 and Ki67(P>0.05).Conclusion:The incidence rate of young breast IDC is low,while the misdiagnosis rate of ultrasound is relatively high.More attention should be paid when the patient has a short history,multiple masses,changes in the posterior echo and less lesion blood supply.

Objective To retrospectively analyze the clinical risk factors and prognosis of perioperative myocardial injury(MINS)in non-cardiac surgery patients admitted to the intensive care unit(ICU).Methods A total of 478 postoperative patients admitted to the Department of Intensive Medicine,Minhang Hospital,Fudan University from Jan 2020 to Dec 2023 were selected.They were divided into MINS group(n=302)and normal group(n=176)based on whether myocardial injury occurred within 7 days after surgery.The differences in clinical characteristics between the two groups were compared,and risk factors for perioperative myocardial injury were identified.Risk factors for mortality in the MINS group were analyzed with 30-day mortality as the clinical endpoint.Results The prevalence of acute physiology and chronic health evaluation Ⅱ(Apache Ⅱ)score,coronary artery disease,and chronic kidney disease were all higher in the MINS group than those in the normal group,with statistically significant differences(P<0.05).The proportion of emergency surgeries,co-infection,and perioperative hypotension were significantly different between the MINS group and the normal group(P<0.05).Multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that chronic kidney disease,emergency surgery,co-infection,and intraoperative and postoperative hypotension were risk factors for MINS occurrence.Prognostic analysis indicated that perioperative hypotension was a risk factor for 30-day mortality in MINS patients.Conclusion MINS is closely associated with patients'underlying conditions,timing of surgery,and perioperative hypotension status,and especially perioperative hypotension affects the final outcomes.

Objective:To investigate the effects of individual versus connected microdroplet culture modes in time-lapse (TL) incubators on embryo development parameters and pregnancy outcomes in patients undergoing whole embryo culture to blastocyst stage.Methods:Using a retrospective cohort study, clinical data from 3 507 fresh blastocyst transfer cycles were analyzed. These cycles involved patients who underwent assisted reproductive technology treatment with whole embryo culture to blastocyst stage at the Reproductive Medical Center of Northwest Women's and Children's Hospital between January 2019 and December 2023. Based on different culture modes, patients were divided into two groups, connected group ( n=2 446, using connected microdroplet culture) and individual group ( n=1 061, using individual microdroplet culture). Baseline characteristics, embryo development parameters, pregnancy outcomes, and neonatal outcomes were compared between the two groups. Generalized linear models (GLM) were used to adjust for confounding factors and analyze the effect of culture mode. Results:Embryo development assessment showed the day 3 (D3) high-quality embryo rate in the connected group [60.12% (12 136/20 187)] was significantly lower than that in the individual group [63.62% (4 705/7 395), P<0.001], whereas the high-quality blastocyst formation rate [34.93% (7 052/20 187)] and the available blastocyst formation rate [56.07% (11 319/20 187)] were both significantly higher than those in the individual group [33.08% (2 446/7 395), P=0.004; 51.45% (3 805/7 395), P<0.001], with statistically significant differences. The implantation rate [67.40% (1 774/2 632)], the clinical pregnancy rate [70.20% (1 717/2 446)], and the live birth rate [60.66% (1 469/2 446)] in the connected group were all significantly higher than those in the individual group [63.40% (724/1 142), P=0.017; 66.73% (708/1 061), P=0.041; 55.89% (593/1 061), P=0.021], with statistically significant differences. Neonatal outcomes showed no statistically significant difference between the two groups (all P>0.05). After adjusting for confounding factors using GLM, connected culture was an independent influencing factor for D3 high-quality embryo rate (a MD=-0.017, 95% CI: -0.034-0.000, P=0.046), high-quality blastocyst formation rate (a MD=-0.020, 95% CI: 0.002-0.037, P=0.026), available blastocyst formation rate (a MD=0.032, 95% CI: 0.015-0.048, P<0.001), live birth rate (a OR=1.182, 95% CI: 1.006-1.388, P=0.042). However, it had no effect on D3 available embryo rate, clinical pregnancy rate, or early miscarriage rate (all P>0.05). Conclusion:In TL incubator systems, individual and connected microdroplet culture modes exert different effects at various stages of embryo development. Individual microdroplet culture can significantly enhance cleavage-stage embryo quality, whereas the connected microdroplet culture was more beneficial for enhancing the blastocyst formation rate and quality, ultimately improving the live birth rate without increasing neonatal risks.

Objective To investigate the practical effects of pediatric rapid sequence intubation(RSI)nursing coordination training based on the LSPPDM(learn,see,practice,prove,do,maintain)framework in order to provide evidence for optimizing pediatric RSI nursing training programs.Methods Nurses from the intensive care unit(ICU)of Children's Hospital,Fudan University during Feb 2023 and Jan 2024 were divided into the experimental group(n=35)and the control group(n=35)by block randomization.The experimental group received LSPPDM framework-based training,while the control group underwent conventional training with theoretical lectures and procedural demonstrations.Outcomes included training satisfaction,theoretical knowledge and procedural skill assessment scores,team collaboration compliance and RSI procedure time were compared between the two groups.Results The experimental group demonstrated significantly higher training satisfaction(123.80±2.04 vs.117.26±9.82,P<0.05),superior post-training theoretical knowledge and procedural skills(P<0.05),enhanced team collaboration compliance(P<0.05),and shorter RSI completion time(P<0.05)compared with the control group.Conclusion Pediatric RSI nursing coordination training based on the LSPPDM framework can effectively increase training satisfaction,promote theoretical and procedural skills and reduce completion time in nurses.
