Objective To analyze the epidemiological characteristics and disease burden of liver cancer in Guangdong Province in 2020, and to provide a scientific foundation for the development of regionalized prevention and control strategies for liver cancer. Methods According to the cancer registry data of Guangdong Province, the incidence, mortality and age-standardized rate by Chinese standard population in 2020 were calculated to analyze the epidemiological characteristics of liver cancer. The disability adjusted life years (DALYs), year of life loss (YLL), year of lived with disability (YLD), and cause-eliminated life expectancy were used to assess the disease burden of liver cancer. Results In 2020, the crude incidence rate and the age-standardized incidence rate of liver cancer in Guangdong Province were 27.79/100 000 and 20.84/100 000，respectively, and the crude mortality rate and the age-standardized mortality rate of liver cancer were 25.49/100,000 and 17.64/100 000, respectively. The total DALY and DALY rate of liver cancer in Guangdong Province were 515 311 person-years and 513.83/100 000, respectively. After eliminating the causes of death from liver cancer, the life expectancy in Guangdong Province increased from 84.60 years to 84.99 years. All indicators consistently demonstrated that the burden of liver cancer was higher in males than that in females, and the burden of liver cancer was higher in rural areas than that in urban areas. Conclusion Liver cancer in Guangdong Province exhibits a high incidence, mortality and disease burden level in 2020. There are obvious differences of gender, age and region in cancer burden. It is necessary to strengthen liver cancer screening and diagnosis and treatment in men, the elderly and those in rural areas to reduce the burden of liver cancer gradually in Guangdong Province.

Chronic heart failure （CHF） represents the terminal stage of cardiovascular diseases， and its prevalence remains high in China. In this study， existing animal models of CHF were retrieved and categorized. In combination with the characteristics of CHF from traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） and Western medicine perspectives， the models were weighted， and their clinical consistency was evaluated. The advantages and disadvantages of the models were assessed. Among them， models with higher TCM clinical consistency included the doxorubicin-induced model， the isoproterenol-induced model， and the left anterior descending coronary artery ligation model， each with a TCM consistency rate of 90%. The animal model established by the left anterior descending coronary artery ligation showed a high degree of clinical consistency with Western medicine， with a consistency rate of 82%. Each model exhibited its own advantages and disadvantages， with a general lack of modeling methods combining diseases and syndromes of TCM and Western medicine. At present， the inducement factors used for animal models are relatively singular， mainly reflecting the etiology and pathogenesis of Western medicine， with insufficient correlation to the pathogenesis of TCM. The characteristics of TCM syndromes are not fully represented， and the consistency between TCM and Western medicine is generally not high. TCM has the advantage of a multi-dimensional syndrome differentiation and treatment approach. It is necessary to integrate the characteristics of diseases and syndromes of TCM and Western medicine， adopt multi-factor modeling methods to reflect the pathological process of CHF， improve existing models， and establish animal models of CHF that better align with the characteristics of clinical diseases and syndromes of TCM and Western medicine， so as to provide a reliable reference for clinical prevention and treatment.

AIM: To compare the visual quality in patients with low-to-moderate myopia after 0.05 D interval spherical lens optometry-guided small-incision lenticule extraction(SMILE)and conventional 0.25 D interval spherical lens optometry-guided SMILE.METHODS: Retrospective study. A total of 400 cases(400 eyes)with low-to-moderate myopia that underwent SMILE in the ophthalmology department of 989th Hospital of Joint Logistic Support Force from August 2021 to August 2023 were enrolled and the data from the right eyes were collected for analysis. According to the method of optometry test modality, they were divided into 0.05 D group and 0.25 D group, with 200 eyes in each group. The differences were compared between the two groups of patients in intraoperative corneal ablation thickness, uncorrected distance visual acuity(UDVA), high-order corneal aberrations(HOA), spherical aberrations, vertical coma, horizontal coma and trefoil aberrations before and at 1, 3 and 6 mo after surgery. Additionally, the percentage of eyes with residual spherical equivalent(SE)≤±0.25 D, postoperative visual symptoms and scores on the quality of visual(Qov)were compared between the two groups at 6 mo after surgery.RESULTS: The corneal ablation thickness in the 0.05 D group was 92.78±16.56 μm, which was slightly higher than that in the 0.25 D group(83.24±17.33 μm; P<0.001). The UDVA at each postoperative time point in the 0.05 D group was superior to that in the 0.25 D group(all P<0.001). The HOA, spherical aberration, horizontal coma and vertical coma in the two groups at 1, 3 and 6 mo after operation were higher than those before operation(all P<0.05). The spherical aberration in the 0.05 D group at each time point after surgery were higher than those in the 0.25 D group, and vertical coma were lower than those in the 0.25 D group(all P<0.05). At 6 mo postoperatively, the percentage of eyes with residual SE ≤±0.25 D in the 0.05 D group was 97.5%(195 eyes), which was higher than 87.5%(175 eyes)in the 0.25 D group(P<0.05). The most common adverse visual symptoms after SMILE in both groups were hazy vision and glare. The total Qov score in the 0.05 D group was 0.35(0.24, 0.55), which was lower than [0.62(0.32, 0.89)] in the 0.25 D group(P<0.05).CONCLUSION: Compared with conventional 0.25 D interval spherical lens optometry-guided SMILE, the 0.05 D interval spherical lens optometry-guided SMILE for the correction of low-to-moderate myopia has better predictability and can achieve better vision and visual quality.

Objective To investigate the effect of Lianpu Yin on duodenal microinflammation in rats with functional dyspepsia(FD)by regulating NLRP3 activation.Methods Wistar rats were randomly divided into blank group and model group.FD rats were reconstructed by iodoacetamide method(2%sucrose solution containing 0.1%iodoacetamide),and the model was verified.FD model rats were randomly divided into model group,Lianpu Yin group and Moxapride group by random number expression method.After a period of two weeks of administration,measurements were taken to determine the body mass,three-hour food consumption,as well as the rates of gastric emptying and intestinal propulsion.The pathological structure of duodenal tissue was observed by HE staining.The serum levels of IL-1β and IL-18 were quantified using the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA)method.The expression levels of NLRP3 and Caspase-1 in each group were detected by Western blot.Expression levels of NLRP3 and Caspase-1 proteins were detected by immunofluorescence.Results Compared with the blank group,body weight,food intake at 3 h,gastric emptyand intestinal propulsion rate in model group were significantly decreased(P<0.01),and inflammatory infiltration of duodenum tissue appeared in the model group.Meanwhile,the expressions of NLRP3 and Caspase-1 proteins,as well as the levels of IL-1β and IL-18 in the duodenal tissue of the model group,showed significant increasing(P<0.05).Compared with the model group,rats in the Lianpu Yin and Moxapride groups displayed significant increasing in body weight,gastric emptying rate,and intestinal propulsion rate(P<0.01).Additionally,inflammatory infiltration of duodenum tissue reduced in these groups.Furthermore,NLRP3 and Caspase-1 protein expressions,as well as IL-1β and IL-18 levels,significantly decreased in the Lianpu Yin and Moxapride groups compared to the model group(P<0.05).Conclusion Lianpu Yin can treat FD rats by inhibiting duodenal microinflammation and then restoring gastrointestinal motility,which may be related to the abnormal activation of NLRP3 inflammasome.

Objective To investigate the correlation between serum ubiquitin-specific protease 14(USP14)and growth factor receptor binding protein 2(GRB2)levels and vascular lesions of the lower limbs(LEAD)in elderly patients with type 2 diabetes(T2DM).Methods 153 elderly T2DM patients admitted to Beijing Nuclear Industrial Hospital from July 2020 to August 2023 were selected and divided into lesion group(n=64)and non-lesion group(n=89)according to the presence or absence of LEAD,in addition and 153 healthy volunteers who matched the age of elderly T2DM patients in the same period were selected as the control group.Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA)was used to detect serum USP14 and GRB2 levels in patients.Multifactorial Logistic regression was used to analyze the factors affecting the occurrence of LEAD in patients with elderly T2DM.Receiver operating curve(ROC)analysis of USP14 and GRB2 levels in elderly T2DM patients for the diagnostic value of LEAD occurrence.Results Compared with the control group,serum USP14(8.56±1.57ng/ml,6.34±1.27ng/ml vs 4.23±1.02ng/ml),GRB2 levels(7.45±1.56ng/ml,5.23±1.12ng/ml vs 3.19±0.78ng/ml)were significantly increased in the diseased and non-diseased groups,and the differences were statistically significant(q=33.555,18.259;37.326,19.960,all P<0.05).Class A,B and C serum USP14(7.14±1.31ng/ml,8.67±1.52ng/ml,9.98±2.01ng/ml),GRB2 levels(6.31±1.25ng/ml,7.47±1.58ng/ml,8.69±1.74ng/ml)increased in that order,and the differences were all statistically significant(F=14.754,11.404,all P<0.05).Multifactorial Logistic regression analysis showed that USP14,GRB2,TC,TG,LDL-C and HbA1c were all influencing factors affecting the occurrence of LEAD in patients with T2DM(Wald χ2=11.618～41.458,all P<0.05).The results of the ROC curve showed that the area under the curve(AUC)of the combined diagnosis of LEAD by serum USP14 and GRB2 was greater than that of USP14 and GRB2 diagnosed alone(Z=2.706,3.124,all P<0.05).Conclusion USP14 and GRB2 were both highly expressed in the serum of patients with elderly T2DM combined with LEAD,which increased with the increase of LEAD grade,and can be used as serum markers for the diagnosis of elderly T2DM combined with LEAD,and the efficacy of the combined detection of the two is better.

To explore the effects of different blood loss on liver and kidney function,blood lactic acid levels,and oxidative stress indexes after hemorrhagic shock resuscitation in dogs,10 healthy Chinese rural dogs were randomly divided into 1.5 h blood loss resuscitation group(HSRA group)and 3.5 h blood loss resuscitation group(HSRB group).The changes in liver and kidney function,blood lactic acid,and oxidative stress-related indexes were detected at 2,6,24,48 and 72 h after re-suscitation.The results showed that the liver function indexes of TBIL,ALT,and AST in the HSRB group were higher than those in the HSRA group at each time point after resuscitation.There was no significant change in renal function indexes between the two groups.The level of Lac in the HSRB group was significantly higher than that in the HSRA group at 2 and 6 h after resuscitation.CAT activity in the HSRB group was significantly lower than that in the HSRA group at 2 h after resuscitation.GSH-px activity in the HSRB group was significantly lower than that in the HSRA group at 2,6 and 24 h after resuscitation.SOD activity in the HSRB group was significantly lower than that in the HSRA group at 24 h after resuscitation.MDA content in the HSRB group was sig-nificantly higher than that in the HSRA group at 2,6,24 and 48 h after resuscitation.The results showed that HS could cause liver injury and oxidative stress after resuscitation,and the degree of liver injury and oxidative stress injury in dogs increased with the prolongation of blood loss.

Objective:To explore the incidence of delirium in patients of advanced age hospitalized in internal medicine departments and analyze its influencing factors.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on the medical records of 586 patients of advanced age hospitalized in internal medicine departments at the Beijing University of Chinese Medicine Third Affiliated Hospital from May 2023 to May 2024. Patients were divided into a delirium group and a non-delirium group based on whether delirium occurred. Univariate analysis and binary Logistic regression analysis were used to explore the factors influencing delirium in patients of advanced age hospitalized in internal medicine departments.Results:Among 586 patients of advanced age hospitalized in internal medicine departments, the incidence of delirium was 21.2% (124/586). Binary Logistic regression analysis showed that age, activities of daily living (Barthel Index), folate deficiency, sleep disorders, and indwelling catheters were factors influencing delirium in patients of advanced age hospitalized in internal medicine departments ( P<0.05) . Conclusions:The incidence of delirium is high among patients of advanced age hospitalized in internal medicine departments. Healthcare professionals should pay particular attention to elderly patients with advanced age, limited activities of daily living, folate deficiency, sleep disorders, and indwelling catheters, and should implement targeted preventive strategies as early as possible.

Objective:To identify the risk factors affecting the effectiveness of conservative treatment for acute sinusitis with orbital complications and provide evidence for recognition of high-risk patients.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on 86 patients with acute sinusitis and orbital complications treated at Qingdao University Affiliated Hospital from 2017 to 2024 (61 males, 25 females; median age: 6.5 years). Patients were divided into an ineffective conservative treatment group and an effective conservative treatment group based on the outcomes after 48-72 hours of conservative treatment. Clinical characteristics were collected, and variables were screened using Lasso regression. Multivariate logistic regression was used to analyze the risk factors for poor conservative treatment outcomes, and a nomogram model was constructed to validate its predictive performance.Results:The overall success rate of conservative treatment was 50% (43/86). Multivariate logistic analysis showed that type Ⅲ orbital complications ( OR=0.17, P=0.017) and the presence of bone destruction ( OR=0.29, P=0.046) were independent risk factors for poor conservative treatment outcomes. The area under the ROC curve (AUC) of the combined predictive model was 0.762, with a sensitivity of 76.7% and a specificity of 69.8%. Conclusion:Patients with acute sinusitis and orbital complications, especially those with subperiosteal abscesses (type Ⅲ) and concurrent bone destruction, have a lower effectiveness rate of conservative treatment. These patients should be closely monitored for clinical signs and considered for prompt surgical intervention when necessary.
