Objective:To evaluate the long-term effectiveness of lingual mucosal graft ureteroplasty (LMGU) for managing long-segment (≥5 cm) ureteral strictures in a multi-institutional cohort of patients.Methods:A multi-center retrospective case series study was conducted on clinical data from 42 patients undergoing LMGU for long-segment ureteral strictures (≥5 cm) across five institutions between February 2017 and June 2024. The cohort comprised 31 males and 11 females, with an age of (43.4±12.0) years (range: 15 to 64 years) and a body mass index of (24.6±2.6) kg/m2 (range: 16.0 to 30.0 kg/m2). Strictures involved the left ureter in 24 cases and right ureter in 18 cases, demonstrating a stricture length of (6.4±1.5) cm (range: 5.0 to 11.5 cm). Surgical interventions included either onlay ureteroplasty or augmented anastomotic ureteroplasty, selected according to intraoperative findings. Intraoperative parameters, postoperative complications, and follow-up outcomes were analyzed.Results:Laparoscopic surgery was performed in 22 cases and robot-assisted surgery in 20 cases. Among the 42 patients, 22 underwent onlay ureteroplasty while 20 received augmented anastomotic ureteroplasty. The graft length was (5.9±1.8) cm (range: 3.0 to 12.0 cm), operative time (191.5±55.6) minutes (range: 105.0 to 350.0 minutes), and intraoperative estimated blood loss (86.7±73.6) ml (range: 10.0 to 400.0 ml). All procedures were successfully completed without conversion to open surgery. The postoperative hospital stay was (7.6±2.0) days (range: 4.0 to 15.0 days), with double-J stent removal at 6 to 8 weeks postoperatively. During a follow-up of (49.1±25.0) months (range: 12.0 to 99.0 months), no stricture recurrence was observed in any patient.Conclusion:LMGU is a safe, feasible, and effective long-term technique for managing long-segment (≥5 cm) ureteral strictures.

There are no reports on the application of perirenal fat covering technique in lingual mucosal graft ureteroplasty（LMGU），and its safety and effectiveness need to be observed. This study retrospectively analyzed clinical data of 7 patients who underwent lingual mucosa ureteroplasty with intraoperative perirenal fat covering technique. The median stricture length was 5.5（range 4.0 to 6.0）cm，operative duration was 170（range 120 to 230）min，estimated blood loss was 92（range 15 to 110）ml. No conversions to open surgery occurred. During a median follow-up of 46（range 8 to 86）months，all procedures achieved clinical success. The application of perirenal fat covering technique in LMGU is safe and effective.

Objective: To evaluate the feasibility and effectiveness of dual fluorescence laparoscopy in the localization of ureteral stricture and its blood supply，and to provide a new idea for the treatment of complex ureteral stenosis，thus helping doctors to improve the efficiency of ureteral reconstruction surgery. Methods: Our team developed a dual fluorescence laparoscopic system，which could simultaneously identify the ureter stricture by intra-ureteral injection of methylene blue (MB) and assess the blood supply of the ureteral stumps by intravenous injection of indocyanine green (ICG). Results: The clinical data of 3 patients who underwent lingual mucosa ureteroplasty using dual fluorescence laparoscopy in Zhongnan Hospital of Wuhan University were retrospectively analyzed.All operations were successful，without conversion to open surgery.The operation time was 144，132 and 163 minutes，respectively.The length of harvested lingual mucosa graft was 2.0，2.8 and 3.5 cm，respectively.No intraoperative or postoperative complications occurred.Eight weeks after operation，ureterography showed that the ureter was unobstructed. Conclusion: Dual fluorescence laparoscopy is safe and feasible in the repair of complex ureteral stricture with lingual mucosa graft，which provides a new idea for complex ureteral reconstruction.

Background: Cervical cancer is still present a major public health problem, especially in developing countries. In International Federation of Gynaecology and Obstetrics 2018, allowing assessment of retroperitoneal lymph nodes by imaging and/or pathological findings and, if deemed metastatic, the case is designated as stage IIIC (with r and p notations). Patients with lymph node metastases have lower overall survival (OS), progression free survival (PFS), and survival after recurrence, especially those who have unresectable macroscopical positive lymph nodes. Retrospective analysis suggests that there may be a benefit to debulking macroscopic nodes that would be otherwise difficult to sterilize with standard doses of radiation therapy. However, there are no prospective study reporting that resecting macroscopic nodes before concurrent chemoradiation therapy (CCRT) would improve PFS or OS of cervical cancer and no guidelines for surgical resection of bulky lymph nodes. The CQGOG0103 study is a prospective, multicenter and randomized controlled trial (RCT) evaluating lymph node dissection on stage IIICr of cervical cancer. Methods Eligible patients are histologically confirmed cervical squamous cell carcinoma, adenocarcinoma, adeno-squamous cell carcinoma. Stage IIICr (confirmed by computed tomography [CT]/magnetic resonance imaging/positron emission tomography/CT) and the short diameter of image-positive lymph node ≥15 mm. 452 patients will be equally randomized to receive either CCRT (pelvic external-beam radiotherapy [EBRT]/extended-field EBRT + cisplatin [40 mg/m2] or carboplatin [the area under curve=2] every week for 5 cycles + brachytherapy) or open/minimally invasive pelvic and para-aortic lymph node dissection followed by CCRT. Randomization is stratified by status of para-aortic lymph node. The primary endpoint is PFS. Secondary endpoints are OS and surgical complications. A total of 452 patients will be enrolled from multiple hospitals in China within 4 years and followed up for 5 years.

The latest epidemiological data suggests that the situation of adult diabetes in China is severe, and metabolic diseases have become significant chronic illnesses that have a serious impact on public health and social development. After more than six years of practice, the National Metabolic Management Center(MMC) has developed distinctive approaches to manage metabolic patients and has achieved a series of positive outcomes, continuously advancing the standardized diagnosis and treatment model. In order to further improve the efficiency, based on the first edition, the second edition guideline was composed by incorporating experience of the past six years in conjunction with the latest international and domestic guidelines.

Objective: To investigate the expression and clinical significance of lysophosphatidic acid receptor 5 (LPA5) protein in breast cancer tissues. Methods: The specimens of breast cancer tissues and adjacent tissues of 80 breast cancer patients from January 2015 to December 2016 in the First People's Hospital of Yongkang were selected in the study.The expression of LPA5 in breast cancer tissues and adjacent tissues was determined by immunohistochemistry.The clinical case characteristics of patients were collected. Results: The positive expression rate of LPA5 in breast cancer tissues(72.5%) was higher than that in adjacent tissues(8.75%)(χ²=67.394, P<0.05). The positive rate of LPA5 in clinical stage Ⅲ-Ⅳ(91.3%) was higher than that in stage Ⅰ-Ⅱ(64.9%)(χ²=5.725, P<0.05). The positive rate of LPA5 in patients with lymph node metastasis(94.7%) was higher than that in patients without lymph node metastasis(52.4%)(χ²=17.951, P<0.05). The positive rate of LPA5 in patients with intravascular tumor thrombus(92.3%) was higher than that in patients without intravascular tumor thrombus (63.3%)(χ²=7.580, P<0.05). The expression of LPA5 in breast cancer tissues was not related to age and tumor diameter (P>0.05). There were no significant differences in the positive expression rates of LPA5 in the breast cancer tissues among luminal type, human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (Her2) overexpressing type and triple negative type (P>0.05). The disease-free survival rate(86.3%) and overall survival rate(87.5%) of patients with negative expression of LPA5 in breast cancer tissues were higher than those in breast cancer tissues with positive expression (65.0%, 66.3%)(χ²=4.517, 4.328, all P<0.05). Conclusion LPA5 expression is up-regulated in breast cancer tissues, and LPA5 may be involved in the development and progression of breast cancer, which is closely related to the prognosis of breast cancer.

With the increasing cost of drug development and clinical trials, it is of great value to make full use of all kinds of data to improve the efficiency of drug development and to provide valid information for medication guidelines. Model-based meta-analysis (MBMA) combines mathematical models with meta-analysis to integrate information from multiple sources (preclinical and clinical data, etc.) and multiple dimensions (targets/mechanisms, pharmacokinetics/pharmacodynamics, diseases/indications, populations, regimens, biomarkers/efficacy/safety, etc.), which not only provides decision-making for all key points of drug development, but also provides effective information for rational drug use and cost-effectiveness analysis. The classical meta-analysis requires high homogeneity of the data, while MBMA can combine and analyze the heterogeneous data of different doses, different time courses, and different populations through modeling, so as to quantify the dose-effect relationship, time-effect relationship, and the relevant impact factors, and thus the efficacy or safety features at the level of dose, time and covariable that have not been involved in previous studies. Although the modeling and simulation methods of MBMA are similar to population pharmacokinetics/pharmacodynamics (Pop PK/PD), compared with Pop PK/PD, the advantage of MBMA is that it can make full use of literature data, which not only improves the strength of evidence, but also can answer the questions that have not been proved or can not be answered by a single study. At present, MBMA has become one of the important methods in the strategy of model-informed drug development (MIDD). This paper will focus on the application value, data analysis plan, data acquisition and processing, data analysis and reporting of MBMA, in order to provide reference for the application of MBMA in drug development and clinical practice.

Objective To investigate the brain activation at the Stroop task in a group of adolescents diagnosed as the internet gaming disorder (IGD).Methods 10 IGD adolescents and 10 adolescent recreational internet game users (RGU) completed a functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) Stroop task.The response time and accuracy of the two groups and the whole brain activation were measured.The differences between the two groups in response time and accuracy were assessed by t test,and the fMRI data was analyzed by SPM8.Results (1) Compared with the RGU group,the response time in congruent (CC) stimulus was longer ((707.7± 56.1) ms vs.(632.1 ± 83.5) ms;t=2.38,P=0.031) and the accuracy to incongruent (IC) stimulus was less((60.2± 17.5)％ vs.(79.0± 19.5)％;t=-2.27,P=0.034) in IGD group;(2) During IC stimulus,compared to RGU group,the neural activation in IGD group significantly decreased in the bilateral cerebellum posterior lobe,left superior temporal gyrus,left prefrontal lobe,left thalamus,left precentral gyrus,left middle frontal gyrus and the right cingulate gyrus (Peak value=-4.11--5.13,P＜0.05,AlphaSim corrected).And the IGD group showed less activation during the CC stimulus in right cerebellum anterior lobe,right superior temporal gyrus,right prefrontal lobe and left insula (Peak value=-3.84--4.72,P＜0.05,AlphaSim corrected).During the Stroop effect (IC-CC),IGD group showed significantly less activation in left precentral gyrus,left precuneus lobe,and left paracentral lobule (Peak value=-3.94,-5.49,P＜0.05,AlphaSim corrected).Conclusion IGD adolescents have poor Stroop performance in response time and accurate rate,which might be correlated to the abnormal activation of their dysfunctional brain regions,such as the frontal lobe,cingulate cortex,temporal lobe,thalamus,precuneus,and the cerebellum.
