A 71-year-old male presented with esophageal cancer and severe aortic valve regurgitation. Treatment strategies for such patients are controversial. Considering the risks of cardiopulmonary bypass and potential esophageal cancer metastasis, we successfully performed transcatheter aortic valve implantation and minimally invasive three-incision thoracolaparoscopy combined with radical resection of esophageal cancer (McKeown) simultaneously in the elderly patient who did not require neoadjuvant treatment. This dual minimally invasive procedure took 6 hours and the patient recovered smoothly without any surgical complications.

Objective To investigate the efficacy of flupentixol combined with ondansetron in preventing postoperative nausea and vomiting(PONV)in patients receiving sufentanil and dezocine patient-controlled intravenous analgesia(PCIA).Methods Surgical patients receiving sufentanil and dezocine PCIA were randomly divided into treatment and control groups using a random number table.The control group received sufentanil 150 μg,dezocine 20 mg,and ondansetron 8 mg for PCIA,while the treatment group received sufentanil 150 μg,dezocine 20 mg,flupentixol 5 mg,and ondansetron 8 mg for PCIA.The incidence of PONV,severity of PONV,heart rate(HR),mean arterial pressure(MAP),blood oxygen saturation(SPO2)levels at different time points after surgery,surgery-related indicators,visual analogue scale(VAS)scores,Ramsay scores,PCIA pressing times,and incidence of adverse drug reactions were compared between the two groups.Results The incidence of PONV in the treatment group and the control group at 2,12,24,36 and 48 hours after surgery were 1.64％,4.84％,6.56％,3.28％,0 and 14.75％,18.03％,19.67％,16.39％,9.84％,respectively.The HR at 24 hours after surgery in the treatment group and the control group were(91.42±8.75)and(98.13±9.62)beat·min-1,respectively;the MAP were(91.98±4.56)and(99.05±4.17)mmHg;SPO2 were(98.13±1.65)％and(98.95±1.82)％;VAS scores were 2.68±0.49 and 2.97±0.63;Ramsay scores were 2.27±0.65 and 2.05±0.32;PCIA pressing times were(2.14±0.37)and(4.36±0.78)times,respectively.The differences in the above indicators between the treatment group and the control group were statistically significant(all P＜0.05).The incidence of total adverse drug reactions after surgery in the treatment group and the control group were 13.12％and 8.20％,respectively,with no statistically significant difference(P＞0.05).Conclusion Flupentixol combined with ondansetron can reduce the risk of PONV caused by sufentanil combined with dezocine PCIA after surgery,ensuring good analgesic effects and safety.

Objective To observe the application effect and safety of continuous adductor canal block(ACB)with different doses of dexmedetomidine(DEX)combined with ropivacaine in postoperative analgesia of total knee arthroplasty(TKA).Methods Patients with TKA were enrolled as the research subjects and were divided into low-dose group,middle-dose group and high-dose group by the random number table method.At 10 min before induction of general anesthesia,all the groups were given 20 mL of 0.5％ropivacaine loading dose for ACB,placed nerve block indwelling catheter,and started ACB analgesia pump after the end of surgery.Low-dose group,middle-dose group and high-dose group were given 0.5,1.0 and 1.5 μg·kg-1 DEX+0.25％ropivacaine for a total of 100 mL,with a background dose of 4 mL·h-1and a control dose of 4 mL,and they locked for 30 min and continuously treated for 48 h.The surgical parameters and postoperative recovery quality of the two groups were compared.Visual analogue scale(VAS)was used to evaluate the pain status in resting state and motion state at 2,6,12,24 and 48 h after surgery.The number of effective compressions of self-controlled analgesia pump and the dosage of remedial analgesics at 48 h after surgery were counted and the safety evaluation was performed.Results No cases dropped out during treatment,and finally 30 cases were included in low-dose,middle-dose and high-dose groups,respectively.The first ambulation times in low-dose,middle-dose and high-dose groups were(54.22±8.37),(47.68±7.65)and(52.79±8.74)h;the time of active knee flexion 90° were(8.90±3.10),(7.20±2.70)and(8.60±2.40)d;the motion VAS scores were(3.86±0.59),(3.57±0.51)and(3.48±0.52)points at 48 h after surgery;the times of first analgesia pump compression within 48 h after surgery were(10.57±3.87),(12.45±3.63)and(13.36±3.56)h;the number of effective compressions of self-controlled analgesia pump were(6.11±2.18),(3.76±1.14)and(3.24±1.07)times;the remedial analgesia rates were 13.33％,0 and 0;at 6 h after surgery,quadriceps muscle strength scores were(4.81±0.21),(4.75±0.23)and(4.61±0.26)points,and the incidence rates of adverse drug reactions were 20.00％,6.67％and 6.67％,respectively.There were statistically significant differences in the above indicators between low-dose group and middle-dose group except for the incidence of adverse drug reactions(all P＜0.05).There were statistical differences between low-dose group and high-dose group except for the incidence of adverse drug reactions(all P＜0.05),but there were no statistical differences between middle-dose group and high-dose group(all P＞0.05).Conclusion The use of 1.0 μg·kg-1DEX combined with ropivacaine for ACB in TKA patients can achieve good postoperative analgesia effect and it has small impact on muscle strength and has good safety,thus this dose can be used as a clinical recommended dose.

Objective To explore the effect of rifampicin on the pharmacokinetics of linezolid in mice and provide pharmacokinetic evidence for the formulation of safe drugs for clinical use of pulmonary tuberculosis.Methods Fifty male KM mice were randomly divided into 2 groups:Control group,rifampicin group;the control group was given 15 mg·kg-1 linezolid;the rifampicin group was given 100 mg·mL-1 rifampicin,continuous administration for 7 days,followed by gavage,administration of 15 mg·kg-1 linezolid;blood and lung tissue were collected from mouse at different time points after administration.High performance liquid mass spectrometry(LC-MS/MS)was used to determine plasma concentration of linezolid and compared the pharmacokinetics between groups.Pharmacokinetic parameters were calculated using DAS 2.0 software.Results Main pharmacokinetic parameters of plasma linezolid in control group,rifampicin group were as follows:AUC0_t were(23.88±1.16)and(19.06±2.56)pg·mL-1·h,respectively;t1/2 were((1.15±0.11)and(1.11±0.10)h,respectively;Cmax were(9.93±0.46)and(7.74±1.17)μg·mL-1,respectively.The main pharmacokinetic parameters of the lungs in the control group and the rifampicin group were as follows:AUC0_t were(18.76±4.29)and(14.90±1.52)μg·mL-1·h,respectively;t1/2 were(1.94±0.50)and(1.44±0.07)h,respectively;Cmax were(8.28±2.67)and(6.82±1.57)μg·mL-1,respectively.AUC0_t and Cmax in plasma and AUC0_t in lung tissue of control group were significantly different from those of rifampicin group(all P＜0.05).Conclusion After the combination of rifampicin,linezolid plasma and lung tissue exposure decreased significantly,and attention should be paid to monitoring linezolid trough concentration when the two drugs were combined to avoid treatment failure caused by low effective concentration.

Using column chromatography methods including the macroporous adsorbent resin, MCI gel CHP 20P, ODS-A-HG, Sephadex LH-20, combined with chromatographic separation methods such as TLC and reversed-phase HPLC, three glycosides (1-3) and two peptides including two new compounds were isolated from the ethanol extract of arthropod Scolopendra subspinipes mutilans. Their structures were identified as colosides A and B (1 and 2), 3,4-dihydroxyquinoline-4-O-β-D-glucopyranoside (3), aurantiamide (4), cyclo (L-phe-L-val) (5) by UV, NMR and HR-ESI-MS spectroscopic techniques.

Microsporidia is a group of intracellular parasitic eukaryotic microorganisms that pose threats to livestock fish production and human health, but there is no special chemo-therapeutic drug available for the treatment of microsporidia currently. In this study, sulfonamide derivatives of spectinomycin were designed by taking into consideration the low toxicity of spectinomycin and the favorable pharmaceutical properties of sulfonamides. Through the exploration of reaction conditions, a total of 21 target molecules were synthesized with a yield of 52%-74% and their chemical structures were confirmed by ¹H NMR, ¹³C NMR, and high resolution mass spectrometry (HR MS). By screening in vitro, the host cell cytotoxicity and biological activity of target molecules to Encephalitozoon hellem, a representative of vertebrates infecting microsporidia, were studied. It was found that four target molecules each could inhibit or promote the proliferation of E. hellem. In this study, the synthesis method of sulfonamide derivatives of spectinomycin was established, and new compounds effective against E. hellem were discovered, which provided a new idea for the further derivatization of spectinomycin and the development of therapeutic drugs targeting microsporidia.

Objective To compare the diagnostic value of ultrasonography and CT in acute appendicitis.Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on 279 patients who were diagnosed with acute appendicitis and followed emergency surgery.Patients were divided into different subgroups based on postoperative pathological results and body mass index(BMI),and the pathological results were used as the gold standard to analyze whether there were differences in the diagnostic accuracy of ultrasonography and CT examination for acute appendicitis.Results A total of 279 patients with confirmed acute appendicitis,with 64 cases of simple appendicitis,127 cases of suppurative appendicitis,and 88 cases of gangrenous appendicitis according to pathological classification.The diagnostic accuracy of ultrasonography was 68.75%(44/64),73.22%(93/127),and 81.81%(72/88),respectively.The diagnostic accuracy of CT was 71.87%(46/64),82.67%(105/127),and 90.90%(80/88),respectively.There was no statistically significant difference in diagnostic accuracy between the two examinations(P>0.05).Subgroup analysis based on patient BMI showed that there was no difference in diagnostic accuracy of the two examinations for patients with normal BMI(P>0.05),while for overweight and obese patients,the diagnostic accuracy of CT was better than that of ultrasonography,with a statistical difference(P<0.05).Conclusion There is no difference in the diagnostic accuracy of ultrasonography and CT examinations for acute appendicitis of different pathological types.But for overweight and obese acute appendicitis patients,the diagnostic accuracy of CT examination is superior to ultrasonography.

ObjectiveTo explore whether miR-375 regulates the malignant characteristics of osteosarcoma (OS) by influencing the expression of MMP13. MethodsPlasmid DNAs and miRNAs were transfected into OS cells and HEK293 cells using Lipofectamine 3000 reagent. Real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction was performed to measure the expression of miR-375 and MMP13 in OS patients and OS cells. Western blot was performed to analyze the MMP13 protein in the patients with OS and OS cells. The targeting relationship between miR-375 and MMP13 was analyzed by luciferase assay. Migration and invasion were analysed by heal wound and transwell assays, respectively. ResultsmiR-375 expression in OS tissues was lower than that in normal tissues. The expression of MMP13 was upregulated in OS tissues. MMP13 expression was negatively correlated withmiR-375 expression in patients with OS. Migration and invasion were significantly inhibited in OS cells with the miR-375 mimic compared with OS cells with the miRNA control. MMP13 partially reversed the inhibition of migration and invasion induced by miR-375 in the OS cells. ConclusionmiR-375 attenuates migration and invasion by downregulating the expression of MMP13 in OS cells.

Osteoporotic proximal humeral fracture (OPHF) is one of the common osteoporotic fractures in the aged, with an incidence only lower than vertebral compression fracture, hip fracture, and distal radius fracture. OPHF, secondary to osteoporosis and characterized by poor bone quality, comminuted fracture pattern, slow healing, and severely impaired shoulder joint function, poses a big challenge to the current clinical diagnosis and treatment. In the field of diagnosis, treatment, and rehabilitation of OPHF, traditional Chinese and Western medicine have accumulated rich experience and evidence from evidence-based medicine and achieved favorable outcomes. However, there is still a lack of guidance from a relevant consensus as to how to integrate the advantages of the two medical systems and achieve the integrated diagnosis and treatment. To promote the diagnosis and treatment of OPHF with integrated traditional Chinese and Western medicine, relevant experts from Orthopedic Expert Committee of Geriatric Branch of Chinese Association of Gerontology and Geriatrics, Youth Osteoporosis Group of Orthopedic Branch of Chinese Medical Association, Osteoporosis Group of Orthopedic Surgeon Branch of Chinese Medical Doctor Association, and Osteoporosis Committee of Shanghai Association of Integrated Traditional Chinese and Western Medicine have been organized to formulate Expert consensus on the diagnosis and treatment of osteoporotic proximal humeral fracture with integrated traditional Chinese and Western medicine ( version 2024) by searching related literatures and based on the evidences from evidence-based medicine. This consensus consists of 13 recommendations about the diagnosis, treatment and rehabilitation of OPHF with integrated traditional Chinese medicine and Western medicine, aimed at standardizing, systematizing, and personalizing the diagnosis and treatment of OPHF with integrated traditional Chinse and Western medicine to improve the patients ′ function.

Healthy lifestyles and good living habits are effective strategies and important approaches to prevent chronic non-communicable diseases. With the development of evidence-based medicine, the evidence translation system has made some achievements in clinical practice. There is, however, no comprehensive, professional and efficient system for translating lifestyle evidence globally. Therefore, the Health Lifestyle Evidence (HLSE) Group of Lanzhou University constructed the HLSE Evidence Translation System (https://hlse.cn/), with the aim of synthesizing, evaluating, translating, and applying lifestyle-related evidence resources. This paper aims to introduce the functional module design of the evidence translation system, the system development process and testing, introduce the interface design and function demonstration, and explain the significance of constructing the HLSE.
