Results:Compared with group C, the incidence and severity of PONV were significantly decreased within 48 h after surgery, the visual analogue scale scores for hunger and thirst and State-Trait Anxiety Inventory scale scores were significantly decreased after entering the operating room, the length of stay in the postanesthesia care unit, time to first flatus and time to first ambulation were significantly shortened, and the patient′s satisfaction was significantly increased in group P ( P<0.05). Conclusions:Oral carbohydrate intake before operation can effectively reduce the occurrence and severity of PONV and improve the quality of postoperative recovery in elderly patients undergoing gynecological laparoscopic surgery.

Objective:To establish a model based on the characteristics of breast cancer ultrasound images through deep learning methods to predict the risk of axillary lymph node metastasis（ALNM）in patients with breast cancer（maximum diameter ≤2.5 cm）before surgery.Methods:A total of 419 patients（3 433 breast tumor ultrasound images）with breast cancer（maximum diameter ≤2.5 cm）who underwent axillary lymph node dissection at Beijing Tiantan Hospital，Capital Medical University from January 2019 to December 2024 were retrospectively included. According to the pathological results of axillary lymph nodes，they were divided into 220 cases in the ALNM occurrence group（positive group）and 199 cases in the non-ALNM occurrence group（negative group）. The breast cancer ultrasound images of the two groups of cases were randomly classified into the training set（2 404 images），the validation set（687 images）and the test set（342 images）according to a ratio of 7∶2∶1. YOLOv8 was used as the basic model of You Only Look Once（YOLO）and optimized. The optimized model was applied to locate and capture the potential ultrasound features of breast cancer cases in the training set. A prediction model was constructed based on the captured ultrasound features. The model was adjusted and optimized through the validation set，and then matched with the case images in the test set. The confusion classification matrix graph and the curve graph for measuring the model performance were used to evaluate the model prediction performance and interpret the model，and the efficacy of this model in identifying breast cancer patients at risk of ALNM was analyzed.Results:There were statistically significant differences between the positive and negative groups in terms of the pathological maximum diameter of breast tumors，pathological T staging，the differentiation degree，the presence of distant metastasis，the maximum diameter measured by ultrasound，the quadrant of breast tumor occurrence，the Breast Imaging - Reporting and Data System（BI-RADS）classification of breast tumors，and the presence of abnormal ultrasound features of lymph node（all P<0.05）. The established deep learning model could automatically perform bounding box localization for the breast cancer of patients.The breast tumors in the positive group had potential ultrasound features that could be captured by the model compared with those in the negative group. The mean average precision（mAP）50 was 0.883，mAP 50-95 was 0.636，PR-AUC was 0.884 5，strict PR-AUC was 0.636 4，the sensitivity was 90.5%，and the specificity was 91.2%，and it had a good predictive efficacy. Conclusions:This prediction model based on the ultrasound characteristics of breast cancer through deep learning can effectively predict breast cancer（maximum diameter ≤ 2.5 cm）with the risk of ALNM，providing an effective basis for the clinical management of axillary lymph nodes in breast cancer patients.

Aim To study the correlation between es-trogen metabolism function of intestinal flora and liver fibrosis disease phenotype and differential intestinal bacteria by fecal microbiota transplantation(FMT).Methods C57BL/6J male mice were divided into normal group(Control-M),liver fibrosis Model group(Model),FMT-1 group(normal mice fecal microbiota transplantation from liver fibrosis mice),and FMT-2 group(liver fibrosis mice fecal microbiota transplanta-tion from female mice).The model group was induced by high fat and high glucose combined with low dose of CCl4 for 16 weeks.In the FMT group,the bacteria were destroyed by mixed antibacterial solution and then the corresponding fecal microbiota solution was given.The model group was established in the FMT-2 group and the model group at the same time.Liver function(ALT,AST)was detected by biochemical methods;liver inflammation(IL-1α,IL-6)was detected by ELISA;liver pathology was detected by HE and Mas-son methods;the expressions of α-SMA,collagen Ⅰ,estrogen receptor ERα,ERβ and GPER were detected by Western blot;estrogen metabolic enzymes β-glucu-ronidase and β-glucosidase in intestinal flora were de-tected by double antibody sandwich assay;gut microbi-ota was detected by 16S rDNA method;the correlation between estrogen metabolic enzymes,estrogen receptors and disease phenotypes and disease-related differential bacteria was analyzed by Pearson correlation analysis.Results Liver function,inflammation and fibrosis in-dices were significantly higher in the model group than those in the control-M group and significantly lower in the FMT-2 group than in the model group;estrogen metabolic enzymes of the intestinal flora significantly increased in the model group compared to the control-M group and significantly decreased in the FMT-2 group compared to the model group;the model group showed a significant increase in ERβ and GPER and a significant decrease in ERα compared to the control-M group,while the FMT-2 group showed a significant de-crease in ERβ and GPER and a significant increase in ERα compared to the model group;the FMT-2 group increased the enterobacterial abundance and diversity reduced by modelling;estrogen metabolic enzymes,es-trogen receptor ERβ and GPER were all positively cor-related with the disease phenotype,while the opposite was true for ERα;estrogen metabolic enzymes were positively correlated with Allobaculum,Ruminococcus and Alistipes,and negatively correlated with Akkerman-sia,Lactobacillus and Prevotella.Conclusions Fecal microbiota transplantation in female mice can alleviate liver fibrosis in male mice,which is related to the im-provement of estrogen metabolism of intestinal flora.

OBJECTIVE To explore the levels of helper T lymphocytes(Th)in patients with hepatitis B virus(HBV)infection who were treated with entecavir and observe the impact on viral clearance.METHODS A total of 149 patients with HBV infection who were treated with entecavir in Yan'an Hospital of Kunming City from Jan.2020 to Jan.2024 were enrolled in the study,82 of whom were chronic hepatitis B(CHB),and 67 were chro-nic hepatitis B virus carriers.The enrolled patients were divided into the clearance group with 64 cases and the no clearance group with 85 cases according to the levels of serum hepatitis B surface antigen(HBsAg)at Week 72 of the treatment.The clinical data were compared between the two groups,and the changes of Th1 and Th2 levels during the treatment were analyzed.Multivariate linear regression analysis was performed for the association be-tween virological change during the treatment and immune level.The risk factors for failed clearance of viruses were analyzed by logistic regression model.RESULTS There were significant differences in the age,the levels of alanine aminotransferase(ALT)and HBV DNA between the baseline and Week 24,the levels of aspartate trans-aminase(AST)at the baseline and Week 12,the HBsAg level at Week 24,and the baseline levels of Th1,Th1/Th2 between the CHBc treatment group and the CHB treatment group(P＜0.05).There were linear correlations between the HBV DNA,HBsAg,hepatitis E antigen(HBeAg)and the Th1,Th2 and Th1/Th2,respectively(P＜0.05).Totally 64 patients were accumulatively eradicated with HBsAg on Week 72,with the eradication rate 42.95％.After the confounding factors were adjusted,multivariate analysis showed that the high levels of Th1,Th2 and Th1/Th2 were the risk factors for the failed clearance of viruses(P＜0.05).CONCLUSIONS Among the patients with HBV infection,there is difference in the immune level between the CHB patients and the CHB virus carriers.The levels of Th1,Th2 and Th1/Th2 are strongly correlated with the HBV DNA,HBsAg,HBeAg and efficiency of viral clearance during the treatment with entecavir.

T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL) is a highly aggressive hematologic malignancy with a poor prognosis, despite advancements in treatment. Many patients struggle with relapse or refractory disease. Investigating the role of the super-enhancer (SE) regulated gene ubiquitin-specific protease 20 (USP20) in T-ALL could enhance targeted therapies and improve clinical outcomes. Analysis of histone H3 lysine 27 acetylation (H3K27ac) chromatin immunoprecipitation sequencing (ChIP-seq) data from six T-ALL cell lines and seven pediatric samples identified USP20 as an SE-regulated driver gene. Utilizing the Cancer Cell Line Encyclopedia (CCLE) and BloodSpot databases, it was found that USP20 is specifically highly expressed in T-ALL. Knocking down USP20 with short hairpin RNA (shRNA) increased apoptosis and inhibited proliferation in T-ALL cells. In vivo studies showed that USP20 knockdown reduced tumor growth and improved survival. The USP20 inhibitor GSK2643943A demonstrated similar anti-tumor effects. Mass spectrometry, RNA-Seq, and immunoprecipitation revealed that USP20 interacted with hypoxia-inducible factor 1 subunit alpha (HIF1A) and stabilized it by deubiquitination. Cleavage under targets and tagmentation (CUT&Tag) results indicated that USP20 co-localized with HIF1A, jointly modulating target genes in T-ALL. This study identifies USP20 as a therapeutic target in T-ALL and suggests GSK2643943A as a potential treatment strategy.

Hemorrhagic shock is a common clinical emergency that can aggravate cell injury after resuscitation. Astrocytes are crucial for the survival of neurons because they regulate the surrounding ionic microenvironment of neurons. Although hemorrhagic shock and resuscitation (HSR) injury can impair cognition, it remains unclear how this insult directly affects astrocytes. In this study, we established an HSR model by bleeding and re-transfusion in mice. The social interaction test and new object recognition test were applied to evaluate post-operative cognitive changes, and the results suggest that mice experience cognitive impairment following exposure to HSR. In the HSR group, the power spectral density of β and γ oscillations decreased, and the coupling of the θ oscillation phase and γ oscillation amplitude was abnormal, which indicated abnormal neuronal oscillation and cognitive impairment after HSR exposure. In brief, cognitive impairment in mice is strongly correlated with Ca²⁺ signal strength in lateral septum astrocytes following HSR.
