ObjectiveTo investigate the feasibility and safety of endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography （ERCP） combined with oral cholangiopancreatography in the treatment of major duodenal papilla gallbladder polyps. MethodsA retrospective analysis was performed for the clinical data of eight patients with choledocholithiasis and gallbladder polyps who underwent ERCP and combined with oral cholangiopancreatography for major duodenal papilla cholecystectomy in Center of Digestive Endoscopy， Jilin People’s Hospital， from May 2022 to June 2024， and related data were collected， including the success rate of surgery， the technical success rate of gallbladder polyp removal， the superselective method of cystic duct， the time of operation， the time of gallbladder polyp removal， and surgical complications. ResultsBoth the success rate of surgery and the technical success rate of gallbladder polyp removal reached 100%， and of all eight patients， three patients used guide wire to enter the gallbladder under direct view， while five patients received oral cholangiopancreatography to directly enter the gallbladder. The time of operation was 51.88±12.34 minutes， and the time of gallbladder polyp removal was 23.13±10.94 minutes. The diameter of gallbladder polyp was 2‍ ‍—‍ ‍8 mm， and pathological examination showed inflammatory polyps in three patients， adenomatous polyps in one patient， and cholesterol polyps in four patients. There were no complications during or after surgery. The patients were followed up for 2‍ ‍—‍ ‍27 months after surgery， and no recurrence of gallbladder polyp was observed. ConclusionOral cholangiopancreatography is technically safe and feasible in endoscopic major duodenal papilla cholecystectomy.

ObjectiveThis study aimed to investigate the effects of 4-week high-intensity interval training (HIIT) on synaptic plasticity in the prefrontal cortex (PFC) of rats exposed to chronic unpredictable mild stress (CUMS), and to explore its potential mechanisms. MethodsA total of 48 male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into 4 groups: control (C), model (M), control plus HIIT (HC), and model plus HIIT (HM). Rats in groups M and HM underwent 8 weeks of CUMS to establish depression-like behaviors, while groups HC and HM received HIIT intervention beginning from the 5th week for 4 consecutive weeks. The HIIT protocol consisted of repeated intervals of 3 min at high speed (85%-90% maximal training speed, S_max) alternated with one minute at low speed (50%-55% S_max), with 3 to 5 sets per session, conducted 5 d per week. Behavioral assessments and tail-vein blood lactate levels were measured at the end of the 4th and 8th weeks. After the intervention, rat PFC tissues were collected for Golgi staining to analyze synaptic morphology. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISA) were employed to detect brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), monocarboxylate transporter 1 (MCT1), lactate, and glutamate levels in the PFC, as well as serotonin (5-HT) levels in serum. Additionally, Western blot analysis was conducted to quantify the expression of synaptic plasticity-related proteins, including c-Fos, activity-regulated cytoskeleton-associated protein (Arc), and N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor 1 (NMDAR1). ResultsCompared to the control group (C), the CUMS-exposed rats (group M) exhibited significant reductions in sucrose preference rates, number of grid crossings, frequency of upright postures, and entries into and duration spent in open arms of the elevated plus maze, indicating marked depressive-like behaviors. Additionally, the group M showed significantly reduced dendritic spine density in the PFC, along with elevated levels of c-Fos, Arc, NMDAR1 protein expression, and increased concentrations of lactate and glutamate. Conversely, BDNF and MCT1 contents in the PFC and 5-HT levels in serum were significantly decreased. Following HIIT intervention, rats in the group HM displayed considerable improvement in behavioral indicators compared with the group M, accompanied by significant elevations in PFC MCT1 and lactate concentrations. Furthermore, HIIT notably normalized the expression levels of c-Fos, Arc, NMDAR1, as well as glutamate and BDNF contents in the PFC. Synaptic spine density also exhibited significant recovery. ConclusionFour weeks of HIIT intervention may alleviate depressive-like behaviors in CUMS rats by increasing lactate levels and reducing glutamate concentration in the PFC, thereby downregulating the overexpression of NMDAR, attenuating excitotoxicity, and enhancing synaptic plasticity.

Objective To compare the long-term prognosis of elderly patients with stageⅠnon-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) after lobectomy or segmentectomy. Methods Data of elderly patients with stageⅠNSCLC between 2010 and 2020 were collected from the SEER database. According to the resection method, patients were divided into a lobectomy group and a segmentectomy group. The overall survival (OS) and lung cancer-specific survival (LCSS) of the two groups were compared by propensity score matching (lobectomy : segmentectomy=2 : 1). Results A total of 9990 patients were included, including 5840 (58.46%) females and 4150 (41.54%) males, with an average age of (70.48±6.47) years. Among them, 9029 patients were in the lobectomy group and 961 patients were in the segmentectomy group. After propensity score matching, a total of 2883 patients were matched, including 1 922 patients in the lobectomy group and 961 patients in the segmentectomy group. There was no statistical difference in baseline data between the two groups (P>0.05). The 10-year OS rate and LCSS rate of the lobectomy group were higher than those of the segmentectomy group (OS: 51.15% vs. 38.35%, P<0.01; LCSS: 79.68% vs. 71.52%, P<0.01). Subgroup analysis showed that the survival advantage of lobectomy was found in patients aged 60-<70 years and ≥80 years; for patients 70-<80 years, there was no statistical difference in OS or LCSS between the two surgical methods (P>0.05). In addition, for patients with tumor diameter ≤2 cm (stages ⅠA1-ⅠA2), lymph node dissection number≥10, and receiving adjuvant radiotherapy/chemotherapy, segmentectomy could also achieve a similar prognosis as lobectomy. Conclusion Overall, for elderly patients with stage ⅠNSCLC, lobectomy can achieve better OS and LCSS. However, individual differences, tumor characteristics, and perioperative treatment plans should be considered comprehensively to determine the surgical method for elderly patients with stageⅠNSCLC.

Background::Breast cancer (BC) risk-stratification tools for Asian women that are highly accurate and can provide improved interpretation ability are lacking. We aimed to develop risk-stratification models to predict long- and short-term BC risk among Chinese women and to simultaneously rank potential non-experimental risk factors.Methods::The Breast Cancer Cohort Study in Chinese Women, a large ongoing prospective dynamic cohort study, includes 122,058 women aged 25-70 years old from the eastern part of China. We developed multiple machine-learning risk prediction models using parametric models (penalized logistic regression, bootstrap, and ensemble learning), which were the short-term ensemble penalized logistic regression (EPLR) risk prediction model and the ensemble penalized long-term (EPLT) risk prediction model to estimate BC risk. The models were assessed based on calibration and discrimination, and following this assessment, they were externally validated in new study participants from 2017 to 2020.Results::The AUC values of the short-term EPLR risk prediction model were 0.800 for the internal validation and 0.751 for the external validation set. For the long-term EPLT risk prediction model, the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve was 0.692 and 0.760 in internal and external validations, respectively. The net reclassification improvement index of the EPLT relative to the Gail and the Han Chinese Breast Cancer Prediction Model (HCBCP) models for external validation was 0.193 and 0.233, respectively, indicating that the EPLT model has higher classification accuracy.Conclusions::We developed the EPLR and EPLT models to screen populations with a high risk of developing BC. These can serve as useful tools to aid in risk-stratified screening and BC prevention.

Aim To investigate the effect of kudinoside D(KD-D)on palmitic acid(PA)-induced lipid depo-sition in hepatocytes.Methods Mouse hepatocytes AML-12 were cultured and randomly divided into the Control group,PA group,PA+KD-D 20 μmol·L-1 group,PA+KD-D 40 μmol·L-1 group and PA+KD-D 80 μmol·L-1 group.AML-12 cells in PA and KD-D groups were treated with PA(0.4 mmol·L-1)for 24 h.AML-12 cells in KD-D groups were incubated with KD-D for 1 h before stimulation with PA.MTT as-say was used to detect cell survival rate,oil red O stai-ning and transmission electron microscopy were used to detect lipid deposition in cells,DCFH-DA fluorescence probe was used to detect intracellular reactive oxygen species(ROS)and MitoSOX mitochondrial superoxide red fluorescence probe was used to detect mitochondrial superoxide content in cells.Results KD-D at differ-ent concentrations improved PA-induced changes in cell morphology significantly.Compared with the Con-trol group,cells in PA group showed a significant in-crease in intracellular lipid droplets.Compared with PA group,the red lipid droplets in KD-D groups de-creased.The results of transmission electron microsco-py demonstrated that KD-D reduced PA-induced hepat-ic steatosis and improved ultrastructure.In addition,KD-D significantly decreased PA-induced cellular ROS level(P＜0.01)and reduced mitochondrial superox-ide content(P＜0.01).Conclusion KD-D inhibits PA-induced lipid deposition by regulating the cellular oxidative stress levels in AML-12 cells.

In recent years,the number of Chest Pain Centers in China has increased rapidly.As of December 2023,there were 5 725 registered units of Chest Pain Centers nationwide,2 660 of which had passed the acceptance,and a total of 14.67 million patients with acute chest pain were treated.The Chest Pain Centers treated more than 3.18 million patients with acute chest pain in 2023,including more than 690 000 patients with acute myocardial infarction,and achieved positive results:significantly increasing the proportion of reperfusion therapy for ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction patients,ensuring the treatment of myocardial infarction patients in a short time,shortening the length of patient hospitalization,and reducing the hospitalization costs and mortality of patients.Through the construction of chest pain center,the treatment process was significantly optimized and the prognosis of patients was improved.At present,the construction and quality control of Chest Pain Centers still need to be further promoted.In some areas,the construction proportion of Chest Pain Centers and the level of diagnosis and treatment of chest pain need to be improved,patient delay is still an important challenge for the treatment of acute chest pain in China.

Limosilactobacillus reuteri is a microbe intricately linked to humans and animal health.A thor-ough assessment of its safety and potential benefits is imperative prior to its application in human and ani-mals.In this investigation,we performed a comprehensive analysis encompassing genome sequencing,genomic analysis,and phenotypic characterization of L.reuteri Q35,an exceptionally proficient producer of reuterin.The whole genome sequencing results showed that the complete genome sequence spans 2145158 bp with a GC content of 38.9％ and encompasses 2121 genes.Initial identification of antibiotic-re-sistant genes,virulence factors,and toxin-coding genes in the genome substantiated the strain' s low-risk status.Subsequent tests for antibiotic resistance,acute oral toxicology,and hemolysis further confirmed its elevated safety level.The genome of L.reuteri Q35 was found to contain genes associated with adhe-sion and stress tolerance.Following exposure to artificial gastric juice and bile salt,the strain exhibited a higher survival rate and demonstrated a strong scavenging ability for hydroxyl free radicals in antioxidant capacity tests.These findings suggested that L.reuteri Q35 possesses unique probiotic properties.Addi-tionally,the genome of strain Q35 harbors three truncated oxaloyl-CoA decarboxylase genes (oxc1,oxc2 and oxc3),overexpression of which resulted in a significant increase in ammonium oxalate degradation from 29.5％ to 48.8％.These findings highlight that L.reuteri Q35 exhibits both favorable safety charac-teristics alongside beneficial properties,making it a promising candidate for treating metabolic disorders such as hyperoxaluria.

Objective:To analyze the clinical features and laboratory indicators in patients with solid malignant tumor-associated venous thromboembolism(Ta-VTE),and to study the risk factors for Ta-VTE.Methods:The hospitalized patients with VTE in Guizhou Provincial People's Hospital from January to December 2020 were enrolled,and they were divided into Ta-VTE group and pure VTE group based on the presence or absence of solid malignant tumor.The differences in clinical data and laboratory indicators between the two groups were analyzed,and the indicators with significant differences were included in logistic regression model to analyze the risk factors of Ta-VTE.Results:A total of 288 patients with VTE were included in this study,including 64 cases in Ta-VTE group and 224 cases in pure VTE group,respectively.There were significant differences in the following indexes between the two groups,including the hospitalization time(14.20±15.29 d vs 10.05±6.90 d,t=3.112,P=0.002),pain(35.94％vs 65.18％,x2=17.554,P=0.000),recent surgery(75.00％vs 37.50％,X2=28.196,P=0.000),D-dimer[2.8(0.92,7.55)μg/ml vs 5.69(2.25,13.91)μg/ml,Z=-2.710,P=0.007],PLR[198.59(139.54,312.16)vs 149.76(114.08,233.66),Z=-2.924,P=0.003]and TBIL[10.90(7.63,15.68)μmol/Lvs 12.90(9.33,18.28)μmol/L,Z=-2.066,P=0.039].There was no significant difference in the other indicators(P＞0.05).The result of multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that elevated PLR(OR=1.003,95％CI:1.000-1.006,P=0.027),recent surgery(OR=4.312,95％CI:2.093-8.885,P=0.000)and prolonged hospitalization(OR=1.037,95％CI:1.002-1.074,P=0.038)were independent risk factors for Ta-VTE.However,pain(OR=0.274,95％CI:0.133-0.564,P=0.000)was a protective factor.Conclusion:Elevated PLR level,recent surgery and prolonged hospital stay are independent risk factors for Ta-VTE patients,and rational use of these indicators is helpful for the clinical diagnosis and treatment of Ta-VTE patients.

Objective:To investigate the changes in serum homeobox A9(HOXA9),soluble E-cadherin(SE-CAD)and type Ⅲ procollagen(PCⅢ)levels in acute myeloid leukemia(AML)patients after chemotherapy with DCAG regimen and their relationship with prognosis.Methods:The clinical data of 80 patients with relapsed/refractory AML diagnosed and treated in our hospital from March 2018 to December 2021 were retrospectively analyzed.According to different treatment regimen,the patients were divided into DCAG group(n=40)and CAG group(n=40).The clinical efficacy and changes of HOXA9,SE-CAD and PCⅢ levels before and after treatment were compared.In addition,all patients were divided into remission group(n=58)and non-remission group(n=22)according to the clinical efficacy.Univariate and multivariate analyses were performed to analyze the risk factors affecting the prognosis of AML patients.The predictive efficacy of the three single indicators,HOXA9,SE-CAD,and PC Ⅲ,and their combination on prognosis was analyzed.Results:Compared with before treatment,the levels of HOXA9,SE-CAD and PCⅢ in both the DCAG and CAG groups were decreased after treatment,and the improvement of each indicator and the clinical efficacy in the DCAG group were significantly better than those in the CAG group(all P＜0.05).Multivariate analysis showed that increased bone marrow blast count,HOXA9 mRNA,SE-CAD and PCⅢ levels were independent risk factors affecting the efficacy of chemotherapy in AML patients(all P＜0.05).ROC curves showed that the combination of HOXA9 mRNA,SE-CAD and PCⅢ could effectively predict the prognosis of AML patients,with a sensitivity of 84.80％and a specificity of 88.20％.Conclusion:DCAG regimen can significantly improve the levels of HOXA9 mRNA,SE-CAD and PCⅢ in AML patients,these three indicators are all independent risk factors affecting the prognosis of AML patients,and the combination of the three indicators can effectively predict the prognosis of the patients.

Objective:To analyze the current prevalence of pre-diabetes (PDM) and its relationship with overweight and obesity in an adult health check-up population.Methods:This study was a cross-sectional and retrospective cohort study and was applied using whole-cluster random sampling method. A total of 491 379 adults who underwent health check-ups at the Health Management Centre of Sichuan Provincial People′s Hospital from January 2017 to July 2023 were selected to analyze the epidemiological characteristics of PDM and overweight-obesity, as well as the trend of change over time. A retrospective cohort study was conducted on 19 001 of the subjects who underwent≥3 health check-ups and did not have diabetes and PDM at baseline, and the relationships between body mass index, waist circumference and the risk for developing PDM were analyzed using Cox proportional risk regression models. And the dose-response relationship between body mass index, waist circumference and the risk for developing PDM was analyzed using restricted cubic spline regression (RCS).Results:Of the 491 379 cases included in the cross-sectional study, 275 084 were male and 216 295 were female, 163 158 cases were under 40 years old, and 328 221 cases were 40 years old and above; the total prevalence of PDM was 19.41% in 2017-2023, with an overall increasing trend. Of the 19 001 people included in the cohort study, a total of 2 487 (13.09%) new cases of PDM were identified at the end of follow-up. After adjusting for confounding factors, overweight ( HR=1.150, 95% CI: 1.047-1.263), obesity ( HR=1.335, 95% CI: 1.149-1.552) and abdominal obesity ( HR=1.218, 95% CI: 1.105-1.342) were risk factors for PDM. The risk of PDM rised with the increase of body mass index (>22.9 kg/m 2, Pnon-linear=0.973) and waist circumference (>80 cm, Pnon-linear=0.830), with a linear dose-response mode. In different gender and age groups, it was found the greater the body mass index (>24.1 kg/m 2 for men,>21.5 kg/m 2 for women;>23.3 kg/m 2 for age≥40 years,>24.1 kg/m 2 for age<40 years) and waist circumference (>85 cm for men, >73 cm for women; >82 cm for age ≥40 years, >85 cm for age <40 years), the higher the risk of PDM. Conclusions:The prevalence of PDM is on the rise in the adult health check-up population. To prevent PDM, it is necessary to control the body mass index and waist circumference to a lower level than the overweight and obesity standards.
