Objective To investigate the short- and long-term prognoses and the risk factors affecting “textbook outcome” (TO) after laparoscopic pancreaticoduodenectomy (LPD) for pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). Methods The clinical and follow-up data of patients diagnosed with PDAC and treated with LPD from January 2019 to December 2022 were retrospectively analyzed. The prognosis was compared between TO and non-TO groups, and univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were used to identify independent prognostic factors for TO. Results A total of 284 patients were enrolled in this study, including 185 cases in the TO group and 99 cases in the non-TO group. The 1-, 3- and 5-year overall survival (OS) rates of the TO and non-TO groups with PDAC were 87.3% vs. 85.9%, 52.5% vs. 38.4%, and 18.0% vs. 4.5%, respectively (P=0.020); the recurrence-free survival (RFS) rates were 74.1% vs. 65.7%, 27.1% vs. 21.0%, and 10.0% vs. 0%, respectively (P=0.042). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that operation time >360 min (OR=0.561, 95%CI: 0.321-0.979, P=0.042), intraoperative blood loss >400 ml (OR=0.392, 95%CI: 0.175-0.879, P=0.023), hard or tough texture of pancreas (OR=2.240, 95%CI: 1.247-4.022, P=0.007), and main pancreatic duct diameter >3 mm (OR=1.931, 95%CI: 1.126-3.312, P=0.017) were independent prognostic factors for TO. Conclusion After the learning curve, more than 60% of patients with PDAC can achieve TO after LPD. The chances of achieving TO are significantly reduced when the operation time >360 min, the intraoperative blood loss >400 ml, the texture of pancreas was soft, and the diameter of the main pancreatic duct >3 mm.

Objective To investigate the short-and long-term prognoses and the risk factors affecting"text-book outcome"(TO)after laparoscopic pancreaticoduodenectomy(LPD)for pancreatic ductal adenocar-cinoma(PDAC).Methods The clinical and follow-up data of patients diagnosed with PDAC and treated with LPD from January 2019 to Dec-ember 2022 were retrospectively anal-yzed.The prognosis was compared bet-ween TO and non-TO groups,and uni-variate and multivariate logistic regre-ssion analyses were used to identify independent prognostic factors for TO.Results A total of 284 patients were enrolled in this study,including 185 cases in the TO group and 99 cases in the non-TO group.The 1-,3-and 5-year overall survival(OS)rates of the TO and non-TO groups with PDAC were 87.3%vs.85.9%,52.5%vs.38.4%,and 18.0%vs.4.5%,respectively(P=0.020);the recurrence-free survival(RFS)rates were 74.1%vs.65.7%,27.1%vs.21.0%,and 10.0%vs.0%,respectively(P=0.042).Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that operation time>360 min(OR=0.561,95%CI:0.321-0.979,P=0.042),intraoperative blood loss>400 ml(OR=0.392,95%CI:0.175-0.879,P=0.023),hard or tough texture of pancreas(OR=2.240,95%CI:1.247-4.022,P=0.007),and main pancreatic duct dia-meter>3 mm(OR=1.931,95%CI:1.126-3.312,P=0.017)were independent prognostic factors for TO.Conclusion After the learning curve,more than 60%of patients with PDAC can achieve TO after LPD.The chances of achieving TO are significantly reduced when the operation time>360 min,the intraoperative blood loss>400 ml,the texture of pancreas was soft,and the diameter of the main pancreatic duct>3 mm.

Objective: To explore the changes of mechanosensitive channels Piezos (Piezo 1 and Piezo 2) in neurogenic bladder (NB) of young rats and their effects，so as to provide reference for clinical search of new therapeutic targets. Methods: A total of 30 female young SD rats were divided into 5 groups based on random number table method：sham operation group (sham)，2-week nerve transection group (NB-2W)，6-week nerve transection group (NB-6W)，2-week nerve transection + Piezos inhibitor group (NB-P-2W) and 6-week nerve transection + Piezos inhibitor group (NB-P-6W)，with 6 rats in each group.The NB models were constructed by transecting the L6 and S1 spinal nerves of young rats.The NB-2W and NB-6W groups were not intervened after modeling，while the NB-P-2W and NB-P-6W groups were intraperitoneally injected with Piezos inhibitor GsMTx4 (10 mg/kg) every 2 days after modeling.Bladder cystometry and ultrasound were performed after 2 and 6 weeks of transection.The expressions of Piezos and fibrosis-related indexes (Collagen Ⅰ and α-smooth muscle actin) were detected in bladder tissues. Results: The results of bladder cystometry showed that the basal bladder pressure in NB-2W group was significantly increased，while it was slightly decreased but was still higher in NB-6W group than in the sham group (P<0.05).Basal bladder pressure was lower in NB-P-2W group than in NB-2W group，but was higher than that in the sham group; basal bladder pressure was lower in NB-P-6W group than in NB-6W group，but higher than that in the sham group (P<0.05).Compared with the sham group，the NB-2W and NB-6W groups had firstly increased and then decreased maximum cystometric capacity (MCC) (P<0.05).Compared with NB-2W group，NB-P-2W group had lower bladder leakage point pressure (BLPP)，but higher MCC and bladder compliance (BC) (P<0.05).Compared with NB-6W group，NB-P-6W group had significantly lower BLPP but higher MCC and BC (P<0.05).HE and MASSON staining and ultrasound results showed that，with the extension of nerve transection time，bladder fibrosis gradually worsened，the bladder wall became rough and thickened，calculi were visible inside，and hydronephrosis gradually appeared; the degree of fibrosis in NB-P-2W and NB-P-6W groups was less than that in NB-2W and NB-6W groups，and no hydronephrosis was observed in the upper urinary tract.In addition，Western blotting and immunohistochemical results showed that NB-2W and NB-6W groups had significantly higher relative expression levels of Piezos，Collagen Ⅰ and α-SMA than the sham group (P<0.01)，while NB-P-2W and NB-P-6W groups had lower relative expression levels of Piezos,Collagen Ⅰ and α-SMA than NB-2W and NB-6W groups (P<0.01). Conclusion: The increased expressions of mechanosensitive channels Piezos in NB young rats may be involved in the progression of bladder fibrosis，but its mechanism needs further study.

Objective: To investigate the influencing factors of overactive bladder (OAB) in college freshmen and the impacts of OAB on their mental health, quality of life and social interaction. Methods: An epidemiological questionnaire survey was conducted in an anonymous manner on the prevalence of OAB among 5300 freshmen aged 17 to 22 years enrolled in the 2023—2024 academic year in Xinxiang Medical University and Sanquan College of Xinxiang Medical University.The questionnaire included questions on basic information, history of urinary tract infection, constipation, smoking, history of alcohol consumption, history of coffee/strong tea drinking, history of carbonated beverage drinking, redundant prepuce, phimosis, holding urine, chronic insomnia, self-rating anxiety scale (SAS), quality of life score (QoL), and social avoidance and distress scale (SADS).The influencing factors of OAB were analyzed with multivariate logistic regression analysis.The subjects were grouped according to whether they had OAB, and the differences in SAS, QoL and SADS between the OAB group and non-OAB group were compared.The impacts of OAB on the anxiety level, quality of life, and social interaction were analyzed with multiple linear regression analysis. Results: The overall prevalence rate of OAB was 4.9% (244/5018).Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the history of urinary tract infection (OR=0.177), constipation (OR=0.636), smoking (OR=0.582), alcohol consumption (OR=0.685), coffee/strong tea drinking (OR=0.387), carbonated beverage drinking (OR=0.631), redundant prepuce (OR=0.673), phimosis (OR=0.311), urine holding (OR=0.593), and chronic insomnia (OR=0.256) were influencing factors for the occurrence of OAB (P＜0.05).The OAB group had higher SAS score [(41.18±6.54) vs. (38.61±6.36)], QoL score [(3.65±1.20) vs. (2.79±0.95)], social avoidance score [(6.25±1.86) vs. (5.86±1.51)], social distress score [(6.27±1.59) vs. (5.97±1.32)], and total SADS score [(12.51±2.35) vs. (11.84±2.01)] than the non-OAB group (P＜0.05).The results of multiple linear regression analysis showed that OAB could independently affect the scores of QoL, SAS, and SADS.The OAB group had higher scores of QoL, SAS, and SADS compared with the non-OAB group (P＜0.001). Conclusion: History of urinary tract infection, constipation, smoking, alcohol consumption, coffee/strong tea drinking, carbonated beverage drinking, redundant prepuce, phimosis, urine holding, and chronic insomnia are influencing factors for the occurrence of OAB in male college students.Moreover, OAB has negative impacts on their mental health, quality of life, and social interaction.

Objective:To analyze the correlation between the recovery of postoperative function of hip joint in patient underwent total hip arthroplasty(THA)and anatomical parameters of femur under computed tomography(CT)three-dimensional(3D)reconstruction.Methods:From January 2022 to October 2024,a total of 120 THA patients were treated at the 904th Hospital of People's Liberation Army Joint Service Support Force were selected.At the third month post-surgery,the Harris Hip Score(HHS)system was used to assess the recovery of the function of hip joint of THA patients,and they were divided into favorable recovery group(72 cases,HHS score≥80)and poor recovery group(48 cases,HHS score<80).The femoral offset(FO),collodiaphyseal angle(CDA),and femoral neck anteversion(FNA)in anatomical parameters of femur under CT CD reconstruction for patients of two groups after surgery were measured and compared.The correlation between each parameter and the recovery of postoperative function of hip joint in THA patients was analyzed.The receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve was plotted to analyze the assessment value of each parameter for the recovery of the function of hip joints in THA patients.Results:In the follow-up at the third month,120 patients were assessed by using the HHS scoring system.The recovery of 72 patients(60.00%)was favorable,with an average HHS score of 84.45±5.19.The recovery of 48 patients(40.00%)was poor,with an average HHS score of 73.31±4.78.Postoperative CDA and FO scores were higher than preoperative values,while FNA scores were lower than preoperative value in 120 patients.After surgery,the CDA and FO scores of favorable recovery group were lower than those of poor recovery group,and FNA was higher than that of favorable group,and the differences between the two groups were statistically significant(t=7.938,9.574,10.391,P<0.05).Pearson correlation coefficient test showed that postoperative function(HHS score)of hip joint negatively correlated with FNA in THA patients(r=-0.511,P<0.05),and it positively correlated with CDA and FO(r=0.408,0.359,P<0.05).ROC curve analysis indicated that the area under curve(AUC)values of ROC curves of single CDA,FO,FNA and the combined detection of them were respectively 0.761,0.855,and 0.827 in assessing the poor recovery of the function of hip joint,which had a certain of assessment values.The combined detection can improve the diagnostic value.Conclusion:The postoperative recovery of the function of hip joint of THA patients relates to CDA,FO and FNA parameters,and the single and combined detections of each parameter all have a certain of assessment value for the poor recovery of joints'function of patients.

Objective:To analyze the correlation between sex hormone levels and micropenis after mild hypospadias surgery in children.Methods:A case control study was carried out.The clinical data of 71 children aged 1 to 13 years who underwent mild hypospadias surgery at the First Affiliated Hospital of Xinxiang Medical University from April 2022 to April 2024 were analyzed.Preoperatively, the children were divided into a mild hypospadias group (Group A) and a mild hypospadias with micropenis group (Group B) based on the stretched penile length (SPL).Prolactin, follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH), luteinizing hormone (LH), progesterone, and testosterone (TES) levels of the 2 groups were measured.Multivariate Logistic regression analysis was used to construct a risk prediction model.The discrimination capability of the model was evaluated using the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve.SPL and sex hormone levels were measured again 6 months after surgery.The children were divided into a normal penile group (Group AA) and a micropenis group (Group BB) after mild hypospadias according to SPL.Multivariate Logistic regression analysis was used to construct a risk prediction model, which was evaluated using the ROC curve.Results:The levels of FSH, LH and TES in group A before the operation were 3.28(2.02, 4.46) IU/L, 0.53(0.25, 0.79) IU/L and 25.24(17.94, 36.67) ng/dL, respectively, and those in group B were 1.42(1.10, 1.84) IU/L, 0.14(0.09, 0.23) IU/L and 15.73 (12.92, 17.00) ng/dL, respectively.The difference was all statistically significant (all P<0.05).Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed statistical significance ( OR=0.515, 95% CI: 0.271-0.977; OR=0.035, 95% CI: 0.002-0.542; OR=0.883, 95% CI: 0.796-0.980).The area under the ROC curve (AUC) of the prediction model was 0.906, with a sensitivity of 75.00% and a specificity of 95.74%.The levels of FSH, LH and TES in the postoperative AA group were 2.97 (1.88, 4.28) IU/L, 0.46 (0.23, 0.78) IU/L and 20.92 (17.34, 33.27) ng/dL, respectively.The median levels of FSH, LH and TES in the BB group were 1.52 (1.27, 1.82) IU/L, 0.17 (0.12, 0.26) IU/L and 15.08(11.68, 16.68) ng/dL, respectively.The difference was all statistically significant (all P<0.05).Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed statistical significance ( OR=0.484, 95% CI: 0.236-0.992; OR=0.061, 95% CI: 0.004-0.939; OR=0.891, 95% CI: 0.795-0.999).The AUC of the prediction model constructed was 0.877, with a sensitivity of 94.12% and a specificity of 68.52%. Conclusions:Lower FSH, LH and TES levels are risk factors for the micropenis after mild hypospadias surgery, and preoperative hormone levels have higher predictive value.

Objective:To investigate the efficacy and safety of intravesical injections of botulinum toxin A (BTX-A) for the treatment of pediatric refractory urinary frequency and incontinence (UFI), and to analyze the factors predicting the therapeutic effect of BTX-A injections.Methods:A retrospective case series study was made on 35 children with UFI [(12.3±4.2) years old], including 13 males (37.1%) and 22 females (62.9%), treated in the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from January 2021 to March 2024.Urotherapy and drug treatments were ineffective in all children, who then received intravesical injections of BTX-A.The urodynamic study (UDS) was performed 1 week before treatment and 3 months after treatment, and the Overactive Bladder Symptom Score (OABSS) and Incontinence Quality of Life (I-QOL) were collected.Perioperative and postoperative adverse events were also recorded.A global response assessment (GRA) score of ≥2 at 3 months postoperatively was defined as effective treatment.According to the postoperative GRA score, the patients were divided into effective and ineffective groups to explore the predictive factors affecting the outcome of BTX-A treatment, such as age, gender, preoperative urodynamic parameters, and the types of urinary incontinence. t-test was used to compare quantitative data such as age, UDS parameters, OABSS, and I-QOL scores.The comparison of count data such as gender and urinary incontinence types was conducted using Fisher′s exact test. Results:The bladder compliance, bladder capacity ratio, OABSS and I-QOL scores of patients significantly improved after BTX-A injection (all P<0.05).The 77.1% (27/35) of the patients were satisfied with BTX-A treatment effects.The main adverse event during the follow-up was a temporary increase in postvoid residual urine after injecting BTX-A (7 cases), which was alleviated by the Creade action or clean intermittent catheterization.There was significant difference in age [(13.00±4.32) years vs.(10.00±2.67) years] and preoperative bladder compliance [(11.21±5.74) mL/cmH 2O vs.(5.13±2.42) mL/cmH 2O] between effective (27 cases) and ineffective groups (8 cases) ( t=2.383, 2.899, all P<0.05).The differences in preoperative bladder capacity ratio, maximum filling detrusor pressure, postvoid residual urine, voiding efficiency, gender, and the types of urinary incontinence were not statistically significant between the two groups (all P>0.05). Conclusions:Intravesical injection of BTX-A is a safe and effective treatment for children with refractory UFI.A young age and poor bladder compliance at treatment are associated with poor prognosis of BTX-A treatment.

Conclusions:Lower FSH, LH and TES levels are risk factors for the micropenis after mild hypospadias surgery, and preoperative hormone levels have higher predictive value.

Objective:To investigate the efficacy and safety of intravesical injections of botulinum toxin A (BTX-A) for the treatment of pediatric refractory urinary frequency and incontinence (UFI), and to analyze the factors predicting the therapeutic effect of BTX-A injections.Methods:A retrospective case series study was made on 35 children with UFI [(12.3±4.2) years old], including 13 males (37.1%) and 22 females (62.9%), treated in the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from January 2021 to March 2024.Urotherapy and drug treatments were ineffective in all children, who then received intravesical injections of BTX-A.The urodynamic study (UDS) was performed 1 week before treatment and 3 months after treatment, and the Overactive Bladder Symptom Score (OABSS) and Incontinence Quality of Life (I-QOL) were collected.Perioperative and postoperative adverse events were also recorded.A global response assessment (GRA) score of ≥2 at 3 months postoperatively was defined as effective treatment.According to the postoperative GRA score, the patients were divided into effective and ineffective groups to explore the predictive factors affecting the outcome of BTX-A treatment, such as age, gender, preoperative urodynamic parameters, and the types of urinary incontinence. t-test was used to compare quantitative data such as age, UDS parameters, OABSS, and I-QOL scores.The comparison of count data such as gender and urinary incontinence types was conducted using Fisher′s exact test. Results:The bladder compliance, bladder capacity ratio, OABSS and I-QOL scores of patients significantly improved after BTX-A injection (all P<0.05).The 77.1% (27/35) of the patients were satisfied with BTX-A treatment effects.The main adverse event during the follow-up was a temporary increase in postvoid residual urine after injecting BTX-A (7 cases), which was alleviated by the Creade action or clean intermittent catheterization.There was significant difference in age [(13.00±4.32) years vs.(10.00±2.67) years] and preoperative bladder compliance [(11.21±5.74) mL/cmH 2O vs.(5.13±2.42) mL/cmH 2O] between effective (27 cases) and ineffective groups (8 cases) ( t=2.383, 2.899, all P<0.05).The differences in preoperative bladder capacity ratio, maximum filling detrusor pressure, postvoid residual urine, voiding efficiency, gender, and the types of urinary incontinence were not statistically significant between the two groups (all P>0.05). Conclusions:Intravesical injection of BTX-A is a safe and effective treatment for children with refractory UFI.A young age and poor bladder compliance at treatment are associated with poor prognosis of BTX-A treatment.

Objective:To analyze the correlation between the recovery of postoperative function of hip joint in patient underwent total hip arthroplasty(THA)and anatomical parameters of femur under computed tomography(CT)three-dimensional(3D)reconstruction.Methods:From January 2022 to October 2024,a total of 120 THA patients were treated at the 904th Hospital of People's Liberation Army Joint Service Support Force were selected.At the third month post-surgery,the Harris Hip Score(HHS)system was used to assess the recovery of the function of hip joint of THA patients,and they were divided into favorable recovery group(72 cases,HHS score≥80)and poor recovery group(48 cases,HHS score<80).The femoral offset(FO),collodiaphyseal angle(CDA),and femoral neck anteversion(FNA)in anatomical parameters of femur under CT CD reconstruction for patients of two groups after surgery were measured and compared.The correlation between each parameter and the recovery of postoperative function of hip joint in THA patients was analyzed.The receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve was plotted to analyze the assessment value of each parameter for the recovery of the function of hip joints in THA patients.Results:In the follow-up at the third month,120 patients were assessed by using the HHS scoring system.The recovery of 72 patients(60.00%)was favorable,with an average HHS score of 84.45±5.19.The recovery of 48 patients(40.00%)was poor,with an average HHS score of 73.31±4.78.Postoperative CDA and FO scores were higher than preoperative values,while FNA scores were lower than preoperative value in 120 patients.After surgery,the CDA and FO scores of favorable recovery group were lower than those of poor recovery group,and FNA was higher than that of favorable group,and the differences between the two groups were statistically significant(t=7.938,9.574,10.391,P<0.05).Pearson correlation coefficient test showed that postoperative function(HHS score)of hip joint negatively correlated with FNA in THA patients(r=-0.511,P<0.05),and it positively correlated with CDA and FO(r=0.408,0.359,P<0.05).ROC curve analysis indicated that the area under curve(AUC)values of ROC curves of single CDA,FO,FNA and the combined detection of them were respectively 0.761,0.855,and 0.827 in assessing the poor recovery of the function of hip joint,which had a certain of assessment values.The combined detection can improve the diagnostic value.Conclusion:The postoperative recovery of the function of hip joint of THA patients relates to CDA,FO and FNA parameters,and the single and combined detections of each parameter all have a certain of assessment value for the poor recovery of joints'function of patients.
