Objective To evaluate the long-term survival of patients with T1a-bN0M0 non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) after sublobar resection. Methods Patients with T1a-bN0M0 NSCLC who underwent sublobar resection from 2004 to 2015 were selected from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database, and divided into a segmentectomy group and a wedge resection group according to the resection method. After propensity-score matching at a ratio of 1:1, the overall survival (OS) and disease-specific survival (DSS) of patients were analyzed using Cox regression model, log-rank test, and restricted mean survival time (RMST). Results A total of 3262 patients were included in the study, including 1321 males and 1941 females, with a median age of 69.0 years. Among them, 2419 patients were in the wedge resection group and 843 patients were in the segmentectomy group. After matching, 843 pairs of patients were obtained. The results showed that the 10-year DSS rate (68.0% vs. 60.6%, P=0.011) and 10-year OS rate (40.8% vs. 37.0%, P=0.049) of the segmentectomy group were better than those of the wedge resection group, while there was no statistical difference in the 5-year DSS rate (82.9% vs. 79.5%, P=0.112) or 5-year OS rate (68.9% vs. 64.9%, P=0.096). Multivariate Cox regression analysis revealed that male gender [HR=1.54, 95%CI (1.28-1.86), P<0.001] and age [HR=1.02, 95%CI (1.01-1.03), P<0.001] were independent risk factors for DSS, while increased number of regional nodes dissected (RND) [HR=0.98, 95%CI (0.96-1.00), P=0.018] and segmentectomy [HR=0.82, 95%CI (0.68-0.98), P=0.030] served as protective factors. For OS, male gender [HR=1.54, 95%CI (1.35-1.75), P<0.001], age [HR=1.04, 95%CI (1.03-1.04), P<0.001], and histological subtypes of squamous cell carcinoma [HR=1.62, 95%CI (1.41-1.86), P<0.001] or large cell carcinoma [HR=1.64, 95%CI (1.07-2.52), P=0.023] were identified as independent risk factors, whereas increased RND was a protective factor [HR=0.98, 95%CI (0.97-0.99), P=0.002]. Surgical approach was not an independent prognostic factor for OS. Subgroup analysis showed that segmentectomy had a better 10-year OS-RMST in patients with adenocarcinoma (P=0.045), right lower lobe tumor (P=0.014), and tumor diameter ≤1.6 cm (P=0.006). Conclusion Increasing lymph node dissection during sublobar resection may improve prognosis. Compared with wedge resection, segmentectomy may improve the long-term DSS rate of patients with T1a-bN0M0 NSCLC.

Objective To explore the effect and mechanism of Slc1a2 overexpression on cognitive dysfunction in sleep-deprived mice.Methods A total of 130 mice were divided into five groups:normal sleep(NS),NS+ov-Slc1a2,sleep deprivation(SD),SD+ov-NC,and SD+ov-Slc1a2,with 26 mice in each group.The SD mice model was established using an automatic system based on a rotating rod,and overexpress Slc1a2 adenovirus was injected into the prefrontal cortex(PFC).Immunofluorescence and Western blotting were used to detect the expression of Slc1a2 in the mouse PFC.Electrophysiological tests were used to evaluate non-rapid eye movement(NREM)sleep time,rapid eye movement(REM)sleep time,and wakefulness time in mice.Real-time quantitative PCR was used to detect the expression of glutamate(Glu)and gamma-aminobutyric acid(GABA)metabolic enzymes in the mouse PFC.Whole-cell patch-clamp recording was used to detect the frequency and amplitude of miniature excitatory postsynaptic currents(mEPSC)in mouse PFC.Immunofluorescence was used to detect the proportion of GABA-positive cells in the mouse PFC.The C11-BODIPY fluorescent probe was used to detect lipid reac-tive oxygen species(ROS)levels in mouse PFC.Commercial kits were used to detect Fe2+and malondialdehyde(MDA)levels in the mouse PFC.Cognitive function in mice was evaluated using the open field,novel object recognition,and Y-maze tests.Results Compared with the NS group,the NREM sleep time,REM sleep time,central area stay time,recognition index,and novel wall selection index increased significantly,while wakefulness time decreased significantly in the NS+ov-Slc1a2 group(all P＜0.05).The percentage of Slc1a2+GFAP+cells,expression of Slc1a2 protein,expression of Glul,Slc6a1,and Abat mRNA,frequency and amplitude of mEPSC,and proportion of GABA-positive cells in the PFC increased significantly,whereas lipid ROS,Fe2+,and MDA levels decreased significantly(all P＜0.05).Compared with the NS group,the NREM sleep time,REM sleep time,central area stay time,recognition index,and novel wall selection index of the SD group and the SD+ov-NC group were significantly decreased,whereas wakefulness time was significantly increased(all P＜0.05).The percentage of Slc1a2+GFAP+cells,expression of Slc1a2 protein,expression of Glul,Slc6a1,and Abat mRNA,frequency and amplitude of mEPSC,and proportion of GABA-positive cells in the mouse PFC decreased significantly,whereas lipid ROS,Fe2+,and MDA levels increased significantly(all P＜0.05).Compared with the SD and SD+ov-NC groups,the NREM sleep time,REM sleep time,central area stay time,recognition index,and novel wall selection index of the SD+ov-Slc1a2 group increased significantly,whereas the wakeful-ness time decreased significantly(all P＜0.05).The percentage of Slc1a2+GFAP+cells,the expression of Slc1a2 protein,the expression of Glul,Slc6a1,and Abat mRNA,the frequency and amplitude of mEPSC,and the proportion of GABA-positive cells in the mouse PFC increased significantly,whereas lipid ROS,Fe2+,and MDA levels decreased significantly(all P＜0.05).Conclusion Ectopic overexpres-sion of Slc1a2 in the PFC can improve sleep disorders in SD mice,reduce the damage caused by SD to excitatory synaptic transmission and GABAergic neuron function in the PFC,and alleviate cognitive impairment and anxiety-like behavior in these mice.Its mechanism may be related to the improvement of Glu/GABA metabolic imbalance in the PFC and inhibition of ferroptosis.

Transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt(TIPS)is an important intervention for portal hypertension,and the degree of reduction in portal venous pressure is closely associated with the prognosis of patients.While a greater reduction in portal venous pressure may lead to more effective alleviation of portal hypertensive symptoms in cirrhotic patients,it also increases the risk of hepatic encephalopathy and liver failure.Therefore,appropriate control of the degree of reduction in portal venous pressure is essential for optimizing therapeutic outcomes.This article reviews the methods for measuring portal venous pressure,the factors affecting the reduction in portal venous pressure,the optimal range for reduction in different indications,and the impact of varying degrees of pressure reduction on complications,in order to provide guidance for improving the treatment outcome of TIPS and the prognosis of patients after surgery.

Objective To study the compliance and influencing factors of inhalation therapy in patients with stable chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD),and carry out patient education and management accordingly. Methods COPD patients were selected from respiratory clinic of Luodian Hospital of Baoshan District of Shanghai from June to December in 2021. Compliance and inhalation techniques were assessed with the Morisky Medication Adherence Scale and the ten-step inhalation technique, and the factors influencing compliance were analyzed. Results A total of 58 outpatients with COPD were included, in which 25 cases (43.1%) with moderate or above compliance. Univariate analysis showed that the patients with course of disease ≥5 years, COPD assessment test(CAT)≥10 points, used 2 inhalation devices and inhalation technique score ≥8 points had better compliance when compared with other patients (P<0.05). Conclusion Patient education and management should be carried out actively. The patients with course of disease<5 years, CAT<10 points should be highly concerned. The inhalation devices should be chosen according to the patients' condition. Training on the use of devices should be strengthened and regularly follow-up evaluation should be carried out.
