Objective:To explore the application value of part-cut jejunal transection in digestive tract reconstruction of totally laparoscopic total gastrectomy.Methods:The propensity score matching and retrospective cohort study was conducted. The clinicopathological data of 112 patients with gastric cancer who underwent totally laparoscopic total gastrectomy in The Second Affiliated Hospital of Anhui Medical University from June 2018 to September 2022 were collected. There were 81 males and 31 females, aged (70±8)years. Among the 112 patients, 60 patients undergoing diges-tive tract reconstruction by Roux-en-Y anastomosis with part-cut jejunum were set as the part-cut group, and 52 patients undergoing digestive tract reconstruction by traditional Roux-en-Y anasto-mosis were set as the traditional group. Observation indicators: (1) propensity score matching status and comparison of clinical data of patients between the two groups after matching; (2) intraopera-tive and postoperative conditions; (3) follow-up. Comparison of measurement data with normal dis-tribution between groups was conducted using the independent sample t test. Comparison of count data between groups was conducted using the chi-square test or Fisher exact probability. Com-parison of ordinal data was conducted using the nonparametic rank sum test. Propensity score matching was performed using the 1∶1 nearest neighbor matching method, with the caliper value of 0.02. Results:(1) Propensity score matching status and comparison of clinical data of patients between the two groups after matching. Of the 112 patients, 90 patients were successfully matched, with 45 cases in each of the part-cut group and the traditional group. After propensity score matching, the elimination of body mass index, clinical TNM staging confounding bias ensured comparability. (2) Intraoperative and postoperative conditions. After propensity score matching, the total operation time and digestive tract reconstruction time of patients in the part-cut group were (217.0±15.1)minutes and (34.7±1.8)minutes, versus (252.6±21.9)minutes and (52.6±7.4)minutes in the traditional group, respectively, showing significant differences in the above indicators between the two groups ( t=?8.97, ?15.66, P<0.05). (3) Follow-up. After propensity score matching, 90 patients were followed up postoperatively for (47±15)months. During the follow-up, no patient in either group received secondary surgery, and there was no death. There were 3 cases and 10 cases of Roux stasis syndrome in the part-cut group and the traditional group, respectively, showing a significant difference between the two groups ( χ2=4.41, P<0.05). Conclusion:Compared with traditional Roux-en-Y anastomosis, the Roux-en-Y anastomosis with part-cut jejunum in totally laparoscopic total gastrectomy can signifi-cantly shorten the time for digestive tract reconstruction and reduce the incidence of postoperative Roux stasis syndrome.

The organ system-integrated curriculum system overcomes the limitations of single teaching methods and the drawbacks of neglecting holism and interconnectedness, effectively transforming knowledge into competency. Tianjin Medical University has pioneered the "double-track integrated teaching reform" to align with the objective of training undergraduate clinical medical talents. This system is centered on the eight major human body systems, breaking traditional disciplinary boundaries and achieving systematic integration of basic medical and clinical courses. First implemented in 2019 in the "5+3" clinical and pediatric programs, the system has undergone three rounds of teaching practice since 2021, forming a distinctive integrated curriculum system. Using the circulatory system as a model, the reform reorganized teaching content, developed specialized textbooks, and assembled interdisciplinary teaching teams, fostering a shared instructional approach through cross-disciplinary training. The teaching model integrates theoretical and practical learning with curriculum-based ideological and political education, employing problem-based learning to encourage self-directed study and leveraging an online-offline mixed approach to enhance teaching effectiveness. An innovative closed-loop assessment system incorporating formative evaluation has been established, integrating multidimensional feedback from exam analysis, student and faculty questionnaire surveys, and teaching supervision to continuously optimize curriculum development. The reform has significantly enhanced medical students' professional competencies and overall capabilities, providing an innovative paradigm for training high-level medical professionals in the new era.

Background and purpose:Epithelial ovarian cancer(EOC)has a poor prognosis and is prone to developing resistance to platinum-based chemotherapy.Exosomes are currently believed to be involved in platinum resistance in ovarian cancer.This study explored the role and mechanism of exosomes on platinum resistance of ovarian cancer.Methods:Through ultracentrifugation,exosomes were isolated and analyzed using electron microscopy,particle size studies,and Western blot for detailed exosome analysis.We detected the expression levels of exosomal proteins and related signaling pathways.Exosomal protein expression profile was analyzed by proteomics.Key differential proteins were screened by intersecting with existing drug resistance datasets.Furthermore,patients diagnosed with EOC via pathological analysis at the Fudan University Shanghai Cancer Center from August 2023 to August 2024,who underwent surgery and fulfilled the eligibility requirements,were gathered to examine the link between the expression of interferon-stimulated gene 15(ISG15)in serum exosomes and resistance to platinum medication.The expression levels of related proteins in serum exosomes were quantitatively detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA).Receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve was plotted to explore the predictive value of serum exosomal protein in ovarian cancer resistance.Results:Exosomes derived from platinum-sensitive and drug-resistant ovarian cancer cells were extracted and proteomic analysis was further performed.We identified 9 differential proteins associated with platinum-resistance and found the key molecule interferon-stimulated gene 15(ISG15).Compared with sensitive cells,the expression of ISG15 in exosomes of drug-resistant ovarian cancer cells was significantly upregulated.Exosome tracer tests showed that exosomes were successfully taken up by ovarian cancer receptor cells.After coculture with drug-resistant exosomes,the expression level of ISG15 in ovarian cancer receptor cells was increased.Knockdown ISG15 in EOC cells decreased the expression of ISG15 in exosomes,and incubation of ISG15-knockdown exosomes decreased the cell viability on the condition of platinum drugs,indicating that ISG15 in exosomes regulated platinum resistance of ovarian cancer cells.Moreover,ISG15 could regulate the expression of multidrug resistance protein 1(MDR1)through phosphoinositide 3-kinase(PI3K)/protein kinase B(AKT)/nuclear factor-kappa-light-chain-enchancer of activated B cells(NF-κB)signaling pathway.This study included a total of 87 patients.Clinical serum samples also showed that the expression of ISG15 in exosomes was higher in platinum-resistant ovarian cancer patients than in sensitive ovarian cancer patients.Using serum exosomal ISG15 as an indicator to distinguish between sensitivity and resistance,the area under ROC curve was 0.779(P＜0.05),cutoffvalue was 27.35ng/mL,sensitivity was 70.2%,and specificity was 76.4%.Conclusion:ISG15 in exosomes can regulate the expression of MDR1 in ovarian cancer cells through PI3K/AKT/NF-κB signaling pathway,and promote platinum resistance in ovarian cancer cells.

Aim To investigate the antidepressant mechanism of hyperforin via the utilization of single-cell sequencing technology.Methods C57BL/6 mice were randomly divided into the control group,depres-sion model group,and hyperforin intervention group.The chronic unpredictable mild stress(CUMS)model was induced and drug interventions were administered for 28 d.Behavioral experiments were conducted to as-sess depressive symptoms,and hippocampal tissue was collected for single-cell RNA sequencing.Key cell populations and differentially expressed genes across groups were identified,followed by PPI network,GO,and KEGG enrichment analysis.Results Behavioral experiments indicated that CUMS successfully induced depressive symptoms in mice,while hyperforin im-proved depressive behavior.In the depression model group,the proportion of brain perivascular macrophages(PVM)increased,and this proportion decreased after hyperforin intervention,approaching the level seen in the control group.The top 20 common differentially ex-pressed genes in the PVM subpopulation were Saa3,Hbb-bs and Ccl24.PPI network analysis identified core targets,including Ccl2,Dhx9,C3,Msr1,Cxcl2 and Cx3cr1.KEGG enrichment analysis revealed pathways related to chemokines,phagosome formation,and inosi-tol phosphate metabolism.Conclusion The antide-pressant mechanism of hyperforin may be related to the regulation of Ccl24 and its related chemokine signaling pathway by PVM.

Objective To explore the debridement effects of 3 types of plasma scalpels for the animal model of explosion injury,and to compare them with the steel scalpel and high-frequency electrosurgical scalpel.Methods Firstly,blast wounds were constructed in the right inguinal regions of 9 Landrace pigs by high-pressure gas impact combined with preset metal shrapnel.Secondly,debridement was carried out in experimental groups with wide-,arrow-or needle-type plasma scalpel and in control groups with steel and high-frequency electrisurgical scalpel,with the operating temperature and debridement time recorded during the procedure and trauma specimens analyzed pathologically after the debridement;comparisons were performed among the five types of scalpels in terms of debridement effect,and among the four ones in terms of maximum operating temperature and depth of tissue thermal damage under electrocutaneous cutting and electrocoagulation modes with the steel scalpel excluded because it did not generate any heat.GraphPad Prism 9.5.1 software was used for statistical analysis.Results There were no significant differences in debridement effect found between the three plasma scalpels and the steel and high-frequency electrosurgical scalpels(P＞0.05).The three types of plasma scalpels had the maximum operating temperature lower significantly than that of the high-frequency electrosurgical scalpel during debridement(P＜0.05).Under electrosection and electrocoagulation modes the three plasma scalpels had the depths of tissue thermal damage statistically less than that by the high-frequency electrosurgical scalpel under electrosection and electrocoagulation modes(P＜0.05).The depths of tissue thermal damage by the four scalpels under electrocoagulation mode were obviously greater than those under electrosection mode(P＜0.05).Conclusion Multi shapes of plasma scalpels behave well in debridement with low operating temperature,little tissue thermal damage and high efficiency for wound protection and the same efficacy with the steel scalpel and high-frequency electrosur-gical scalpel.[Chinese Medical Equipment Journal,2025,46(2):31-38]

OBJECTIVE To summarize the clinical characteristics and diagnosis and treatment experiences in dealing with non-severe Chlamydia psittaci pneumonia.METHODS The clinical data were collected from 34 patients who were diagnosed with non-severe C.psittaci pneumonia through quantitative polymerase chain reactiong(qPCR)for sputum in fever clinic of the First Medical Center of Chinese PLA General Hospital from Mar.2023 to Mar.2024 and were retrospectively analyzed.The clinical characteristics and treatment outcomes were evaluated.RESULTS The average age of the patients was(44.82±13.74)years old,the ratio of male to female was 1∶1.83;all of the patients had fever;major symptoms were cough(70.59％),pharyngodynia(44.12％),and flu-like symptoms(41.18％);82.35％of the patients had the history of contact with poultry.The C-reactive pro-tein(CRP)level,interleukin-6(IL-6),systemic inflammatory response index(SIRI)and aggregate index of sys-temic inflammation(AISI)were higher among the patients aged no less than 44 years old than among the patients less than 44 years old(P＜0.05);the percentage of lymphocytes of the patients aged no less than 44 years old was lower than that of the patients aged less than 44 years old(P＜0.05).As for the imaging findings,73.53％of the patients had consolidation shadows,26.47％had ground-glass opacities,and 32.35％involved both lungs.All of the patients received quinolones or tetracyclines for treatment of 7-14 days and all symptoms relieved.CT reexami-nated 1 month after the treatment showed that 55.88％of the cases had complete absorption of pulmonary infec-tious lesions,and 35.29％had partial absorption.CONCLUSIONS The patients with non-severe Chlamydia psitta-ci pneumonia are characterized by the history of contact with poultry,fever complicated with respiratory tract symptoms,rise of inflammatory markers(more significant among patients of advanced age)and lower lobe con-solidation shadow/ground-glass opacities.Early identification and standardized treatment may facilitate the favora-ble treatment outcomes.

Objective:To explore the effects of Baduanjin and brisk walking on the sleep quality among fe-male college students.Methods:Ninety female college students with poor sleep quality[Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index(PSQI)≥ 8]were recruited randomly assigned to Baduanjin,brisk walking,and control groups,with 30 par-ticipants in each.The Baduanjin and brisk walking groups participated in 10-week intervention(five 45-minute ses-sions per week),while the control group did not receive any intervention.Baseline and post-intervention assessments were conducted using the PSQI,a lung capacity test,echocardiography,and the Fatigue Scale(FS-14).Results:Af-ter 10 weeks,participants in both the Baduanjin and brisk walking groups got significantly lower PSQI and FS-14 total scores compared to baseline(Ps＜0.001).Cardiopulmonary function indicators,including stroke volume(SV),forced expiratory volume in one second(FEV1.0),the vital capacity-to-body mass index(VC/W),and maximum voluntary ventilation per minute(MVV),also significantly improved(Ps＜0.001).Furthermore,the Baduanjin group had significantly lower PSQI and FS-14 scores than both the brisk walking and control groups(P＜0.001),along with superior improvements in cardiopulmonary function(P＜0.001).Conclusion:This study in-dicates that Baduanjin is particularly effective in improving sleep quality,cardiopulmonary function,and reducing fatigue among female college students,showing advantages over brisk walking.
