Objective To explore the feasibility and safety of fastest recovery after surgery(FRAS)in laparoscopic surgery of gastrointestinal tumors.Methods The clinical data of patients undergoing laparoscopic surgery for gastrointestinal tumors under FRAS and enhanced recovery after surgery(ERAS)from Jan.2023 to May 2024 were collected,and perioperative safety and medical cost were analyzed.Results A total of 87 patients were enrolled,including 43 in the FRAS group and 44 in the ERAS group.Compared with the ERAS group,the FRAS group had significantly shorter surgical time(3.0[2.5,3.5]h vs 3.0[2.5,4.0]h),first postoperative movement time([2.85±4.29]h vs[20.18±6.13]h),first postoperative oral feeding time(2.0[2.0,3.0]h vs 24.0[15.0,48.0]h),postoperative hospital stay(24.0[20.0,40.0]h vs 192.0[150.0,216.0]h),lower hospitalization costs(50 515.61[46 650.44,56 827.12]yuan vs 65 555.09[58 683.21,86 239.02]yuan),and lower medication costs(2 671.09[2 063.31,3 127.09]yuan vs 7 326.90[5 104.66,10 674.26]yuan)(all P＜0.05).Conclusion It is safe and feasible to use FRAS during the perioperative period of laparoscopic radical gastrectomy for gastrointestinal tumors,and FRAS can also reduce the costs of hospitalization and medications.

Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the most prevalent malignant tumors of the digestive system worldwide, characterized by continuously rising incidence and mortality rates. Despite significant advancements in therapeutic approaches, the prognosis for advanced-stage CRC remains unsatisfactory, highlighting the urgent need to explore novel molecular mechanisms and therapeutic strategies. Ferroptosis, a form of programmed cell death driven by iron-dependent lipid peroxidation, plays a crucial role in cancer occurrence, progression, and treatment resistance. Activation of ferroptosis significantly suppresses tumor cell growth. Further investigation into the mechanisms of ferroptosis in CRC occurrence, progression, and treatment could provide valuable insights for both basic and clinical research on CRC.

Objective:To investigate the quality control of magnetic resonance enterography(MRE)in the diagnosis of intestine diseases,and analyze the factors that affected the imaging quality of MRE,and enhance the imaging quality of MRE through adopted the measures of quality control.Methods:The documents of MRE examinations of 167 patients with intestinal disease who admitted to the 900th Hospital of People's Liberation Army Joint Service Support Force from May 2018 to March 2023 were retrospectively analyzed.The image qualities of all patients were evaluated after they completed clinical and image examinations.The reasons that image quality could not meet the requirement of diagnosis were analyzed.And then,the measures of quality control were proposed.Results:In 167 patients with intestinal disease,the MRE images of 153 patients(91.62%)could meet the requirement of diagnosis.In 14 patients(8.38%)whose MRE images could not meet the requirement of diagnosis,the reason of 3 cases(1.80%)was poor respiratory coordination,and that of 2 cases(1.20%)was there were more severe magnetic sensitive artifacts in images,and that of 1 case(0.60%)was severe intestinal peristalsis leaded to blurred images,and that of 2 cases(1.20%)was the flow void effect from intestinal peristalsis inside of intestinal cavity could not meet the requirement of diagnosis,and that of 4 cases(2.40%)was the intestinal tube without incomplete dilation caused by poor oral filling contrast agent,and that of 2 cases(1.20%)was many residues in intestine due to poor preparation for intestine.Aimed at the factors that MRE images could not meet requirement of diagnosis,we proposed the following quality control measures:①the biphasic contrast agents with favorable safety,without severe adverse reactions,which can fully dilate intestinal cavity,should be selected.②we should do well for the dilation of intestinal tube,and inhibit the intestinal peristalsis and conduct respiratory training.③we should conduct scan with wide field at coronal site,so as to display panorama image of intestine.④The scans of conventionally anatomical sequence and functional imaging sequence on axis position were performed on lesions.Conclusion:MRE technique should choose appropriate contrast agent in the quality control of the diagnosis of intestine diseases,and do well the preparation for patients before examination.Using intraluminal contrast agents,conducting intestinal dilation and optimal imaging technique are essential for obtaining intestinal MRE images with high quality.

Objective:To analyze the feasibility and clinical efficacy of mirror reconstruction in total hip arthroplasty (THA) assisted by visual treatment solution (VTS) for patients with Crowe type II-III developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH).Methods:Included in this study were 67 patients (67 hips) with unilateral Crowe type II-III DDH undergoing primary THA from June 2022 to August 2023. According to the reconstruction position of the rotation center, the patients were divided into mirror group and high group. There were 37 patients (37 hips) in the mirror group, reconstructed by referring to the rotation center of contralateral normal hip, with 8 males and 27 females, aged 40.9±16.7 years old and 30 patients (30 hips) in the high group, reconstructed by the "high hip center" strategy, with 7 males and 23 females, aged 38.3±11.1 years old. The radiographic results between the affected hip and the normal hip in 12 months postoperatively and the clinical results before and after the operation were compared.Results:All the operations for patients with Crowe type II-III DDH were completed successfully. The operation time, intraoperative blood loss and the follow-up time in the mirror group were 113.9±22.9 min, 287.8 ±181.6 ml and 12.8±1.8 months, respectively, while those in the high group were 118.0±26.2 min, 293.3±125.8 ml and 13.7±2.3 months respectively without significant difference between the two groups. In 12 months postoperatively the rotation center height, greater trochanter height and femoral offset of 37 hips in the mirror group were 16.1±3.8 mm, 17.7±5.2 mm and 34.4 ±5.1 mm, respectively, which were not significantly different from those of the normal side, while the HHS and WOMAC osteoarthritis index were significantly improved compared to those before operation from 32.3±5.3 and 76.9±5.4 points to 84.3±6.3 and 9.4±2.5 points ( t=-34.222, P<0.001; t=64.486, P<0.001). In the high group, the rotational center height, greater trochanter height and femoral offset of 30 hips were 27.9±3.7 mm, 25.4 ±7.9 mm and 35.4 ±6.2 mm, respectively, which were significantly higher than those in the normal side ( t=-15.706, P<0.001; t=-6.494, P<0.001; t=-2.555, P=0.016), and the HHS and WOMAC osteoarthritis index were significantly improved compared to those before operation from 30.9±4.8 and 78.7±5.3 points to 79.5±4.9 and 13.9±3.3 points ( t=-37.339, P<0.001; t=64.375, P<0.001). The HHS and WOMAC osteoarthritis index in the mirror group significantly improved compared with the high group in 12 months postoperatively ( t=3.404, P=0.001; t=-6.315, P<0.001). The X-ray at last follow-up showed that all prostheses were in a stable position. Conclusion:Compared with the high hip center reconstruction, satisfactory outcomes in terms of functional recovery and radiographic evaluation could be achieved in patients with Crowe type II-III DDH undergoing VTS-assisted THA of mirror reconstruction. The application of mirror reconstruction is expected to achieve the goal of restoring the anatomical structure and function of the primary hip after THA.

Kirsten rat sarcoma viral oncogene homolog(KRAS)is a type of gene closely related to human tumors.And it's an important medical index to access the tumor development,prognosis and the efficacy of chemoradiotherapy.RAS mutations,in which KRAS mutations account for up to 85%,are the most common oncogenic driving mutations in human tumors.The most frequent KRAS mutation sites are codons 12,13,61 and 146.Codon G12,as the most frequently mutated one,can be divided into multiple subtypes,with G12D mutation being the most common,followed by G12V,G12C,etc.Colorectal cancer(CRC)is one of the tumors with the highest frequency of KRAS mutations.Both G12D and G12V are the most common mutation subtypes in CRC.In the field of treatments for CRC with KRAS mutations,targeted therapy had not been possible until the release of KRASG12C inhibitors in 2013,and new drugs have been developed one after another since then.This study summarized the mutations of KRAS and the advances in clinical research,including the latest advances in targeted drugs,chemotherapy drugs,immunotherapy drugs,ferroptosis,and other treatment methods.Among them,in terms of targeted drugs,this review explored KRASG12C inhibitors(sotorasib,adagrasib,D-1553,IBI351,etc.),anti-angiogenic drugs(monoclonal antibodies such as bevacizumab,remdesizumab,etc),small molecule multi-target tyrosine kinase inhibitors such as sunitinib,etc.In terms of immunotherapy drugs,there have also been many advances,such as the ARETHUSA clinical trial,which found that temozolomide reduced the tumor mutational burden(TMB)of O-6-methylguanine-DNA methyltransferase(MGMT)deficiency and RAS mutation in patients with advanced metastatic colorectal cancer(mCRC),providing innovative ideas for patient immunotherapy.For example,the combination of xindilimab with bevacizumab,oxaliplatin,and capecitabine can be used for first-line treatment of RAS mutations,microsatellite stability(MSS),and unresectable mCRC.Relevant studies have shown that the combination therapy has good therapeutic potential and controllable tolerability safety.This review explored the mechanisms of KRAS mutations and the latest advances in clinical research and treatment,in order to provide reference for the treatment of KRAS mutated colorectal cancer.

Blended teaching can promote the learning engagement of students and enhance their experience by combining online independent learning and offline class learning. We applied blended teaching in the course of Histology and Embryology in the large class of 147 nursing undergraduates in Chongqing Medical University. First, the teaching method was designed by a pre-course survey, and online resources were constructed. Second, students' online learning activities and group discussions were guided by a learning map. Then, flipped classes were carried out in offline class hours. Finally, an end-of-course survey and final exam scores were used evaluate the effectiveness of blended teaching. A total of 142 valid questionnaires were returned; 123 students (86.6%) approved of the effectiveness of blended teaching, 133 students (93.7%) showed improved abilities in various aspects, and 79 students (55.6%) were able to complete their online learning tasks in fewer hours than required for face-to-face lectures. The final exam results showed that the average score of blended teaching class increased by 3.5 points compared with that of the traditional face-to-face lecture class. In conclusion, blended teaching in Histology and Embryology in the large class can achieve good learning and teaching effects and thus holds promise for application.

ObjectiveTo explore the meridian tropism of components in Bupleuri Radix （Chaihu， CH） based on the model of nonalcoholic steatohepatitis （NASH） and clarify the substance basis of the meridian tropism of CH in Xiaoyaosan （XYS） by means of principal component analysis. MethodEighty SPF male C57BL/6 mice were randomly assigned into 8 groups， with 10 mice in each group. Except that the blank group was fed with the methionine choline-sufficient （MCS） diet， the other mice were fed with methionine choline-deficient （MCD） diet for 4 weeks to establish the nonalcoholic steatohepatitis （NASH） model. After the established model was confirmed by hematoxylin-eosin （HE） staining， the mice were administrated with corresponding drugs by gavage once a day for 4 weeks. Specifically， the 8 groups were XYS group （2.874 g·kg^-1）， XYS-CH group （2.445 g·kg^-1）， XYS-CH+volatile oils （Vol， 0.163 mg·kg^-1） group， XYS-CH+polysaccharides （Pol， 24.067 mg·kg^-1） group， XYS-CH+flavones （Fla， 2.241 mg·kg^-1） group， and XYS-CH+saponins （Sap， 2.746 mg·kg^-1） group. The model group and the blank group were administrated with the same volume of normal saline. After the last administration， the mice were sacrificed for the collection of blood and liver tissue. The pathological changes of liver were observed by HE staining and oil red O staining. Enzyme linked immunosorbent assay （ELISA） kits were used to determine the levels of alanine aminotransferase （ALT）， aspartate aminotransferase （AST）， triglyceride （TG）， total cholesterol （TC）， high-density lipoprotein （HDL）， and low-density lipoprotein （LDL） in serum as well as malondialdehyde （MDA）， superoxide dismutase （SOD）， catalase （CAT）， and glutathione peroxidase （GSH-Px） in liver. SPSS Statistics 23 was used for principal component analysis and comprehensive evaluation to determine the substance basis of the meridian tropism of CH in NASH mice. ResultCompared with the blank control group， the modeling led to hepatocyte swelling， increased fat vacuoles， and appearance of inflammatory cells. Further， the modeling elevated the levels of ALT， AST， TG， TC， and LDL and lowered the HDL level in serum， and it increased the MDA level and decreased the SOD， CAT， and GSH-Px levels in liver. Compared with the model group， the administration of XYS and XYS-CH in combination with the components of CH alleviated the oxidative damage in liver （P<0.05）. The comprehensive score of the pharmacological efficacy was in a descending order as follows： XYS > XYS-CH+Sap > XYS-CH+Fla > XYS-CH+Pol > XYS-CH+Vol > XYS-CH. Among the chemical components of CH， Sap had the best effect. ConclusionSap lowers the blood lipid level， regulates the abnormal lipid metabolism， and alleviates the oxidative damage of liver， which is the substance basis for CH to exert the meridian tropism in liver.

Objective:To analyze the expression level of minichromosome maintenance protein 6 (MCM6) in colon cancer tissues, the correlation between the expression level of MCM6 and the clinicopathological characteristics of colon cancer patients, and the correlation between MCM6 and PCNA expression.Methods:The expression levels of MCM6 in different tumor tissues were analyzed based on the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) database. The expression levels and correlations of MCM6 and PCNA in colon cancer tissues were analyzed based on The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database and immunohistochemical experiments. The correlation between MCM6 expression level and clinical characteristics of colon cancer patients was analyzed. The correlation between MCM6 and PCNA expression in colon cancer was analyzed based on TCGA database and Gene Expression Profile Interaction Analysis (GEPIA) database.Results:Bioinformatics analysis and immunohistochemical results confirmed that MCM6 was highly expressed in colon cancer tissues, and its expression level was correlated with the tumor stage of patients ( P=0.01). In colon cancer, the expression of MCM6 and PCNA was correlated with statistical significance ( P<0.05). Conclusions:MCM6 is highly expressed in colon cancer tissue and is related to the clinical characteristics of patients, suggesting that MCM6 can be used as a potential marker of colon cancer.

Objective:To explore the predictive factors of pathological complete response (pCR) after neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy for middle-low rectal cancer.Methods:A case-control study was conducted. The inclusion criteria were as follows: (1) colonoscopy, digital examination or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) showed a distance from the lower edge of the tumor to the dentate line of no more than 10 cm; (2) complete clinicopathological data were available; (3) preoperative biopsy revealed adenocarcinoma; (4) preoperative pelvic MRI or endorectal ultrasonography was performed; (5) no distant metastasis was found. Exclusion criteria: (1) preoperative radiotherapy and chemotherapy were not administrated according to the standard; (2) simultaneous multiple primary cancer and familial adenomatous polyposis were observed. According to the above criteria, clinicopathological data of 245 patients with middle-low rectal cancer undergoing preoperative neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy in Changhai Hospital of Navy Medical University from January 2012 to December 2019 were retrospectively collected. Univariate analysis and multivariate logistic analysis were used to identify the clinical factors predicting pCR. pCR is defined as complete disappearance of cancer cells under the microscope in cancer specimens (including lymph nodes) after neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy.Results:A total of 72 patients with pCR were enrolled in this study. Univariate analysis showed that preoperative T stage, tumor circumference, tumor morphology, carbohydrate antigen (CA) 19-9, interval between the end of neoadjuvant therapy and operation were associated with pCR (all P<0.05). The above 5 variables were included in multivariate logistic analysis and the results revealed that the T stage (OR=5.743, 95% CI: 2.416-13.648, P<0.001), tumor circumference (OR=7.754, 95% CI: 3.822-15.733, P<0.001), tumor morphology (OR=0.264, 95% CI: 0.089-0.786, P=0.017) and the interval between the end of neoadjuvant therapy and operation (OR=0.303, 95% CI: 0.147-0.625, P=0.001) were independent predictive factors of pCR, while CA 19-9 level was not an independent factor (OR=1.873, 95% CI:0.372-9.436, P=0.447). Conclusion:By knowing the clinical features of preoperative T stage, tumor circumference, tumor morphology and the interval between neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy and operation, patients with higher likelyhood of pCR after neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy may be identified.
