Objective:To compare the short-term clinical outcomes of robotic gastrectomy (RG) and laparoscopic gastrectomy (LG) in treating gastric cancer, as well as the overall 5-year's survival rate.Methods:In this retrospective cohort study, 874 patients undergoing minimally invasive gastrectomy were recruited from Jan 2016 to Jan 2020 (LG: n=719; RG: n=155). A one-to-one propensity score matching analysis was applied to minimize the selection bias due to confounding factors, yielding 150 patients in each of the RG and LG groups. After matching, the short-term outcomes and 5-year overall survival were compared in the two groups. Results:The propensity score matching cohort analysis showed a similar 5-year overall survival between RG and LG groups ( P=0.235). Concerning the short-term outcomes, the RG compared to LG resulted in lower blood loss ( P=0.011), lower postoperative complications ( P=0.001), less postoperative pain ( P=0.014), earlier initiation of soft diet ( P=0.010), shorter hospital stay ( P=0.011), but higher hospitalization expenses ( P=0.004). Conclusions:RG had a similar overall survival outcome compared to LG while offering better safety and efficacy in terms of less blood loss, lower surgery complications, faster recovery, and less postoperative pain. Higher hospital expenses were the main disadvantage of RG that could limit its application.

Sarin(GB)is a typical representative of nerve agents with high toxicity,and very low amount can cause death.GB can cause water and atmospheric environment poisoning,so the detection of GB in water and air is of great significance.In this work,a colorimetric sensor array(CSA)based on GB inhibition of cholinesterase activity was constructed to detect GB with high selectivity.A 4×4 colorimetric array was constructed using acetylcholinesterase(AChE),butyryl cholinesterase(BuChE)and the corresponding substrate acetylthiocholine iodide(S-ACh),butyryl thiocholine iodide(S-BCh),acetylcholine chloride(ACh),butyryl choline chloride(BCh)and 2,6-dichloroindophenol ethyl ester(DCIE).The linear curve of the sensor was Y=131.3×lgC+271.6(R2=0.997),where Y was the array response Euclidean distance,C was the concentration of GB(mg/L),the linear range was 0.03?0.32 mg/L,and the detection limit was 27.6 μg/L.The method could effectively distinguish chemical warfare agents(CWA)such as VX,Soman(GD),mustard gas(HD),Louie reagent(L),and had high anti-interference ability,sensitivity and good repeatability.It was successfully applied to the detection of GB in simulated water and simulated air samples,and the sample recovery rate was 97.2% ?100.9%.This method would be potentially applied to the field rapid detection of nerve agents.

ObjectiveThe significance of adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) among men who have sex with men (MSM) should not be overlooked. This study aims to assess the reliability and validity of the Chinese version of the Adverse Childhood Experiences-International Questionnaire (ACE-IQ) among the MSM population in China to evaluate its applicability in this group. MethodsA cross-sectional survey was conducted in three Chinese cities(Shanghai, Shenyang and Kunming) using snowball sampling, with a total of 1 130 MSM participants included. Exploratory factor analysis (EFA) and confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) were used to assess the structural validity of the scale. Internal consistency reliability was evaluated using Cronbach’s α coefficient, and split-half reliability was assessed with the Spearman-Brown coefficient. ResultsAccording to the EFA results, after removing item ACE10 (“parental death”), the 23-item ACE-IQ demonstrated a six-factor structure, including victimization or witnessing emotional/physical abuse, sexual abuse, physical neglect, family dysfunction, emotional neglect, and peer violence. CFA results indicated a good model fit for the six-factor model, supporting the EFA findings. The scale demonstrated good reliability, with a Cronbach's α coefficient of 0.852 and a Spearman-Brown coefficient of 0.899, indicating high internal consistency and split-half reliability within the studied population. ConclusionThe Chinese version of the ACE-IQ demonstrates satisfactory reliability and validity among MSM population, supporting its suitability for assessing ACEs in this group. The findings provide an empirical basis for subsequent mental health interventions.

Objective:To investigate the clinical characteristics of patients with high-myopia macular hole retinal detachment (MHRD) combined with choroidal detachment and to preliminarily analyze factors associated with postoperative hole closure.Methods:A retrospective clinical case series study. A total of 68 patients with high myopia (68 eyes) with MHRD diagnosed by Department of Ophthalmology, Peking University People’s Hospital from January 2019 to April 2024 were included in this study. Among them, there were 14 males (14 eyes) and 54 females (54 eyes). The mean age was (61.10±9.66) years. All eyes were treated with pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) combined with silicone oil or gas filling. Best corrected visual acuity (BCVA), intraocular pressure, and B-mode ultrasonography were performed. The BCVA test was performed using the Snellen visual acuity chart, which was statistically converted to logarithm of the minimum angle of resolution (logMAR) visual acuity. The range of choroidal detachment was defined according to the number of involved quadrants observed in B-mode ultrasound or surgery, which was divided into 1 to 4 quadrants. Axial length (AL) was measured under retinal reattachment. In 68 eyes, there were 17 eyes with choroidal detachment and 51 eyes without choroidal detachment, respectively. There were 17 eyes with choroidal detachment, and the detachment range involved 1, 2, 2 and 12 eyes in 1, 2, 3 and 4 quadrants, respectively. During operation, 13% C 3F 8 was filled in 2 eyes, all of which were not complicated with choroidal detachment. 66 eyes were filled with silicone oil. According to whether the patients were complicated with choroidal detachment, the patients were divided into the group without choroidal detachment and the group with choroidal detachment. Independent sample t test, Welch two-sample t test or Mann-Whitney U test were used for comparison between groups. Generalized linear regression and logistic regression were used to analyze the relationship between the aperture size of postoperative unclosed holes and the closed hole after surgery and clinical factors. Results:At 3 months after surgery, the logMAR BCVA of the affected eye was 1.29±0.43, with a preoperative to postoperative difference ranging from -1.60 to 0.70 (-0.51±0.51) logMAR units. The AL ranged from 26.6 to 34.3 (29.60±2.12) mm. Among 68 eyes, macular hole of 37 (54.4%, 37/68) eyes were open and 31 (45.6%, 31/68) eyes were closed, respectively. The hole diameter of the open eye was (753±424) μm. There was no significant difference in age, course of disease and AL between the two groups ( W=412.0, 477.5, 427.0; P>0.05). Before operation, BCVA in patients with choroidal detachment was worse ( W=257.5) and intraocular pressure was lower ( t=4.051) in patients with choroidal detachment compared with those without choroidal detachment, with statistical significance ( P<0.05). At 3 months after surgery, BCVA in patients with choroidal detachment was significantly worse than that in patients without choroidal detachment, with statistical significance ( W=284.0, P<0.05). There were no significant differences in logMAR BCVA difference ( t=0.616) and macular hole closure rate ( χ 2=0.000) before and after surgery ( P>0.05). The reoperation rate of retinal detachment due to persistent or recurrent retinal detachment was significantly higher in the group with choroid detachment than in the group without choroid detachment, and the difference was statistically significant (odds ratio=6.424, P<0.05). Logistic regression analysis showed that young age was significantly correlated with macular hole closure failure after surgery ( β=0.077, P=0.015). There was no correlation between AL, duration of disease, BCVA before surgery, intraocular pressure, wether combined with choroid detachment range and postoperative hole closure ( β=-0.072, 0.000, 0.672, -0.085, -0.391; P>0.05). Conclusions:Concomitant choroidal detachment adversely affected on both pre-operative and post-operative visual acuity in high myopia MHRD. It is closely associated with the risk of recurrent retinal detachment and the needs of multiple operations, but has no significant effect on hole closure rate. Lower age of onset may be a risk factor for macular hole closure.

Aim To study the effects of whole herb of Prunella and its active components on the malignant progression of breast cancer and its mechanism.Meth-ods Breast cancer transplantation tumor model was constructed and randomly divided into the model group,low,medium and high dose group of whole herb of Prunella(0.1,0.2,0.4 g·mL-1 by gavage)and paclitaxel(10 mg·kg-1 by intraperitoneal injection),which was administered by gavage every day,and the tumor tissues were collected after 28 days of interven-tion.The weight,tumor volume and mass of nude mice in each group were detected,HE staining was used to observe the morphology of breast cancer tumor tissues,and immunohistochemical staining was used to observe the proliferation of cell-cycle regulatory protein-67(Ki-67)and cytokeratin 17(CK17)in breast cancer tumor tissues.The cellular experiments were performed by u-sing different concentrations of the ethyl acetate extract of the whole herb of Prunella in breast cancer MDA-MB-231 cells for 24 h.The proliferation of MDA-MB-231 cells and the effects on the cell cycle and apoptosis of MDA-MB-231 cells were detected by using the CCK-8 assay,the cell cycle flow and the apoptotic cell flow.Western blot was used to detect the effect of ethyl ace-tate extract of whole herb of Prunella on the expression of apoptosis-related proteins in breast cancer MDA-MB-231 cells.UPLCQ-TOF MS/MS was used to detect the chemical compositions of the ethyl acetate extract of Prunella whole herb.Results The whole herb of Pru-nella had no significant effect on the growth of nude mice(P＞0.05);it could significantly inhibit the growth of transplanted tumors in nude mice with human breast cancer(P＜0.05);the results of HE staining showed that the cells in the tissues appeared to be rela-tively sparse with the increase of the dose of Prunella and had different degrees of nuclear consolidation and deep staining of nuclei and the apoptosis of the tumor cells increased;the metastasis of tumor cells to the liv-er and lungs was inhibited,when compared with that in the model group.Compared with the model group,the low,medium and high groups of Prunella had no signif-icant effect on the liver index,while the spleen index was significantly reduced(P＜0.05);the expression of Ki-67 and CK17 was reduced.The ethyl acetate ex-tract of the whole herb of Prunella could inhibit the proliferation of MDA-MB-231 cells in breast cancer(P＜0.01);the results of flow cytometry showed that,with the increase of the concentration of the ethyl ace-tate extract of the whole herb of Prunella,the proportion of S-phase cells in the MDA-MB-231 cells significantly increased,and the proportion of G0/G1-phase cells sig-nificantly decreased,while the proportion of G2-phase cells did not change significantly(P＜0.01);Western blotting was not affected in the low,medium and high groups,and the spleen index significantly decreased(P＜0.05);the expression of Ki-67 and CK17 was re-duced;the results of Western blot showed that the eth-yl acetate extract of the whole herb of Prunella promo-ted the expression of Bax,cleaved caspase-3,cleaved caspase-9 proteins,and inhibited the expression of Bcl-2,caspase-3,caspase-9,cyclinA2,and CDK2 proteins(P＜0.05,P＜0.01).The acetic acid of the whole herb of Prunella ethyl ester extract identified a total of 51 compounds.Conclusions The whole herb of Pru-nella can inhibit the growth of breast cancer in nude mice transplanted with tumors,promote the apoptosis of tumor cells,inhibit the proliferation of breast cancer MDA-MB-231 cells,inhibit the metastasis of tumor cells to the liver and lungs,protect the liver and spleen,and reduce the expression of the value-added markers Ki-67 and CK17 in tumor tissues,and the ef-fective ingredient of the whole herb,the ethyl acetate extract,can induce apoptosis.The mechanism may be related to the down-regulation of cyclinsA2,CDK2,Bcl-2,caspase-3,caspase-9 and up-regulation of Bax,cleaved caspase-3,cleaved caspase-9 protein expres-sion.
