Aim To study whether intravenous injec-tion of miR-129-3p mimetic(agomir)can resist bone loss caused by hind limb disuse,and to provide new i-deas for preventing bone loss in microgravity environ-ment.Methods Forty-eight C57BL/6J male mice were randomly divided into the control group(CON),tail suspension model group(TS),tail suspension+miR-129-3p agomir administration group(miRNA)and tail suspension+miR-129-3p negative sequence agomir control group(NC).The miRNA group was given 4 mg·kg-1 miR-129-3p agomir by intravenous injection into the medial canthus twice a week.The NC agomir group were consistent with those in the miR-129-3p agomir group,and the CON and TS groups were given only equal volumes of normal saline.After four weeks,all mice were sacrificed and samples were collected.Micro-CT scan of femur,three-point femur bending test,serum bone metabolism index detection,oxidative stress index detection and osteogenesis-related protein expression analysis in bone tissue were per-formed.Results After four weeks,the number of tra-becular bone in the TS group was significantly re-duced,and Tb.BMD,Tb.Th,Tb.N,Tb.BS/TV and Tb.BV/TV were significantly lower than those in the CON group(P＜0.01).While Tb.Sp TS group was significantly higher than the CON group(P＜0.05),the maximum load and flexural strength of the femur significantly decreased(P＜0.01),the content of ser-um bone formation index PINP was significantly lower than that of the CON group(P＜0.01),and the con-tent of bone resorption index CTX-I was significantly higher than that of the CON group(P＜0.01),the content of serum oxidative damage indexes 8-iso-PGF2α and 8-OHdG significantly increased(P＜0.01),and the expression of osteogenesis-related pro-teins in bone tissue markedly decreased(P＜0.01).However,the increase or decrease of all indexes in miRNA group was significantly lower than that in TS group.Conclusions miR-129-3p mimetic can signifi-cantly reduce bone loss caused by hind limb disuse.This experiment provides a new idea and method for preventing bone loss in microgravity environment.

Objective To investigate the clinical efficacy and safety of facilitated percutaneous coronary intervention(PCI)with half-dose recombinant staphylokinase(r-SAK)in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction(STEMI)who are expected to undergo PCI within 120 minutes.Methods From October 2021 to August 2022,a total of 200 STEMI patients in eight centers were included and randomly assigned in a 1﹕1 ratio to either r-SAK group or control group.Patients received loading doses of aspirin and ticagrelor and intravenous heparin and were randomized to receive an intravenous bolus of either 5 mg r-SAK or normal saline prior to PCI.The outcomes were set as ST-segment resolution(STR)at 60-90 minutes after PCI,the proportion and transition of pathological Q waves on the 5th day after PCI,and the proportion of high-sensitivity cardiac troponin T(hs-cTnT)peaking within 12 hours of onset.The safety outcome was major bleeding events defined as Bleeding Academic Research Consortium(BARC)≥type 3 bleeding during hospitalization.Results Compared with the control group,the r-SAK group had a higher proportion of STR≥70%within 60-90 minutes after PCI(58.3%vs.40.3%,P=0.009);a lower proportion of pathological Q waves(59.1%vs.74.1%,P=0.040);a lower rate of Q wave progression(14.8%vs.43.2%,P＜0.001);a higher rate of Q wave disappearance(12.5%vs.3.7%,P=0.027);and a higher proportion of hs-cTnT peaking within 12 hours of symptom onset[31/40(77.5%)vs.17/33(51.5%),P=0.027].Regarding the safety outcome,no significant difference in BARC≥type 3 bleeding was found between the two groups during hospitalization(P＞0.05).Conclusions For STEMI patients who were expected to undergo primary PCI within 120 minutes of symptom onset,the facilitated PCI with half-dose r-SAK significantly increased the proportion of STR≥70%at 60-90 minutes after PCI,reduced the formation of pathological Q waves,and shortened the time to peak hs-cTnT,without increasing the risk of bleeding,which should be an alternative reperfusion strategy worthy of further study.

Blood from a case of group B epidemic cerebrospinal meningitis identified in February 2024 in Ganzhou City,Jiangxi Province,and throat swabs from close contacts were collected for isolation and culture.The isolates were subjected to serogrouping,drug sensitivity testing,and whole genome sequencing and analysis,to provide a basis for epidemiological inves-tigation and clinical drug use.One strain of Neisseria meningitidis was isolated from the blood of the case and denoted group B.The MLST type was ST-7962,with no clonal group attribution.The phylogenetic tree showed that it was genetically close to the 1977 Shanghai carrier isolate(id-52231).Drug sensitivity results indicated that the strain was sensitive to 8 drugs:azithro-mycin,cefotaxime,minocycline,ceftriaxone,chloramphenicol,meropenem,rifampicin,and benzylpenicillin;resistant to cot-rimoxazole,levofloxacin,and ciprofloxacin;and showed an intermediate response to penicillin.This report describes the first case of ST-7962 group B meningoencephalitis found in Jiangxi Province.Monitoring of Neisseria meningitidis carriage,drug re-sistance,and molecular characteristics of strains in the healthy population in this region should be strengthened,to provide la-boratory support for the clinical use of medications,traceability,and control of the pathogen underlying meningoencephalitis infection.

Objective To explore the clinical and pathological characteristics and oncological outcomes of clear cell borderline ovarian tumor(CCBOT),and provide guidance for the diagnosis and treatment of this disease in the future.Methods A total of 23 CCBOT patients who underwent surgical treatment in our hospital from May 2011 to Aug 2022 were enrolled,and the clinical information of 19 CCBOT patients in the Ricotta's cohort was integrated.The clinical pathological characteristics and oncological outcomes of these 42 patients were retrospectively analyzed.Results This study enrolled 42 CCBOT patients,including 23 from our cohort and 19 from the Ricotta G's cohort.Compared with the Ricotta's cohort,the proportion of CCBOT patients with endometriosis in our cohort(34.8%)was significantly higher than that in the Ricotta's cohort(5.3%)(P<0.05).In our cohort,22 patients had information on intraoperative frozen section evaluation,and the accuracy of intraoperative frozen section evaluation was 50%(11/22).The other 50%(11/22)of patients were underestimated by intraoperative frozen section evaluation.The merged cohort indicated that the median age of the patients was 60 years old,occuring more common in postmenopausal women(66.7%).Most cases presented with pelvic masses(59.5%)and abdominal pain or distension(19.0%).This disease mostly involved unilateral ovaries(90.5%).Information on preoperative tumor markers was largely missed,making it difficult to draw an accurate evaluation for them.Ten cases(23.8%)underwent fertility sparing surgery,and 32 cases(76.2%)underwent radical surgery.The pathologic report indicated that all patients were stage I patients and 21.4%patients had endometriosis.Among these patients,32 patients underwent total hysterectomy,of which 10(31.3%)had concurrent endometrial lesions.The median follow-up time was 68 months,with a minimum follow-up of one month and a maximum follow-up of 231 months,and no recurrence or death was observed.Conclusion CCBOT patients usually had an good prognosis with a low recurrence rate.Fertility sparing surgery was safe and feasible,but attention should be paid to exclude concurrent endometrial lesions.Given the rarity of CCBOT,future multicenter prospective studies are needed to better elucidate the clinical pathological features and prognosis of patients with CCBOT.

With the aging of the population,the disease burden of heart valve disease in China has significantly increased.In recent years,the interventional treatment for heart valve disease has flourished,among which transcatheter aortic valve replacement(TAVR)has become the first-line treatment for elderly patients with aortic valve stenosis.China started relatively late in the field of interventional treatment for heart valve disease.The construction of heart valve centers helps to standardize the diagnosis and interventional treatment of heart valve disease in China and improve the management of prognosis for patients.Up to December 2024,a total of 453 centers have participated in the construction of heart valve centers,including 100 construction centers and 40 certification centers.The National Transcatheter Valve Therapeutics Registry(NTCVR)database has reported a total of 28 594 cases,with approximately 50％of Chinese TAVR cases recorded in NTCVR database.The construction of the heart valve centers has shown initial results,significantly optimizing the process of diagnosis and treatment of heart valve disease and improving the prognosis.At present,there are still many shortcomings in the construction of heart valve centers.For example,the follow-up rate of patients after discharge is low,and long-term management after discharge needs to be further improved.There is still a gap in some indicators between construction centers and certification centers,and the promotion of high-quality management of interventional treatment of heart valve disease in China is still a long way to go.

China has become the country with the highest global burden of heart failure(HF).Despite the widespread use of prognostic-improving medications today,the mortality rate of HF remains high,reaching 13.7％at one year-particularly among patients with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction(HFrEF).HF interventional device therapy(structural intervention)targets the structural factors underlying HF,including atrial pressure,ventricular remodeling,and valvular intervention.It leverages the heart's intrinsic physiological properties and pathological progression mechanisms to deliver treatments through interventions without external active forces,achieving anatomical or functional repair.This field has emerged as a rapidly growing area and plays an increasingly critical role in HF management.This article provides a comprehensive review and summary of the latest advancements in HF and cardiomyopathy interventional therapy over the past year.It covers various novel technologies and products currently in the research phase,aiming to provide an in-depth analysis of the current status and future directions of HF interventional therapy,and further advance the development of this discipline.

To address the limitations of the existing automatic electrocardiogram(ECG)diagnosis models in learning long-term dependencies,an automatic 12-lead long-term ECG signal diagnosis model which combines bidirectional selective state space model(bidirectional mamba,BiMamba)with residual multi-scale receptive field block(RMSF)is proposed:(1)designing a multi-scale receptive field module with residual connections to realize more extensive feature extraction and fusion;(2)introducing BiMamba block to enhance the model's temporal modeling capability by employing both forward and backward temporal processing;(3)using the classifier to process features from BiMamba for accomplishing multi-label ECG classification.Five major diagnostic categories from the PTB-XL dataset are extracted and subjected to 5-fold cross-validation experiments.The experimental results from the comparative study show that BiMamba-RMSF achieves an average accuracy of 89.42%,an average AUC of 0.9356,and an average F1 score of 72.85%,outperforming the other 4 automatic ECG diagnosis models.Additionally,ablation study further validates the effectiveness of BiMamba block.It is demonstrated that the proposed model has a high precision in the multi-label classification for 12-lead long-term ECG signals.

Objective:To investigate the effect of left colonic artery (LCA) preservation on rectal cancer patients' short-term postoperative anal function and quality of life.Methods:Two-hundred ninty-two patients with rectal cancer at the Department of Gastrointestinal Surgery of Peking University First Hospital between Jan 2022 and Dec 2023 were enrolled . The patients were divided into two groups according to whether the LCA was preserved during surgery or not. The LARS scale and EORTC QLQ-CR29 quality of life questionnaire were used to assess postoperative anal function and quality of life.Results:There were no significant differences between the two groups in terms of the amount of surgical blood loss and the number of lymph node dissections in the root No. 253 group and the time to postoperative voiding (all P>0.05). However, the LARS scores at 1 and 3 months postoperatively were significantly lower in the preserved LCA group than in the LCA nonpreserved group, especially for gas incontinence, loose stool leakage, and number of bowel movements (all P<0.05). The EORTC QLQ-CR29 scores showed that the LCA preserved group recovered significantly better than the non-preserved group in terms of postoperative voiding dysfunction ( P=0.007), urinary incontinence ( P=0.006), mucus discharge ( P=0.009), and fecal incontinence symptoms ( P<0.001). Male sexual dysfunction recovery was quicker in the preserved LCA group ( P=0.043), but there was no significant difference between the two groups at 3 months postoperatively( P>0.05). Conclusion:Preservation of the left colonic artery in low anterior resection of rectal cancer helps to reduce the incidence of postoperative low anterior resection syndrome, improve genitourinary symptoms, and improve patients' quality of life.
