ObjectiveTo investigate the influence of platelet-albumin-bilirubin （PALBI） score on the textbook outcome （TO） of patients with hepatocellular carcinoma （HCC） after hepatectomy， as well as the association of different PALBI scores before surgery with the achievement of TO after hepatectomy in HCC patients. MethodsA retrospective analysis was performed for the data of HCC patients who underwent hepatectomy in West China Hospital of Sichuan University and Ziyang Central Hospital from January 2013 to January 2022. TO was defined as no serious complication within 30 days after surgery， no death within 90 days， no rehospitalization within 30 days after discharge， no blood transfusion in the perioperative period， RO resection， and no prolongation of hospital stay. The chi-square test was used for comparison of categorical data between two groups. The univariate and multivariate Logistic regression analyses were used to investigate the influencing factors for the achievement of TO after hepatectomy in HCC patients. The Kaplan-Meier method was used to plot the survival curves of HCC patients， and the Log-rank test was used for comparison. ResultsA total of 3 599 patients were included in this study， among whom 2 369 （65.8%） achieved TO. The multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that PALBI grade （PALBI grade 2： odds ratio ［OR］=1.562， 95% confidence interval ［CI］： 1.308‍ ‍—‍ ‍1.864， P<0.001； PALBI grade 3： OR=2.216， 95%CI： 1.463‍ ‍—‍ ‍3.359， P<0.001） was an independent risk factor for achievement of TO after surgery in HCC patients. The proportion of patients achieving TO decreased with the increase in PALBI grade. Among the patients with PALBI grade 1， 2 or 3， the patients achieving TO accounted for 70.2%， 54.2%， and 38.4%， respectively （χ²=106.295， P<0.001）. The incidence rate of serious complications within 30 days， the mortality rate of patients within 90 days after hepatectomy， readmission rate within 30 days after discharge， perioperative blood transfusion rate， and the rate of prolonged hospital stay all increased with the increase in PALBI grade （all P<0.05）. For the patients achieving TO， the 1-， 3-， and 5-year relapse-free survival rates were 79.5%， 60.6%， and 51.5%， respectively， and the overall survival rates were 92.1%， 80.0%， and 71.1%， respectively； for those who did not achieve TO， the 1-， 3-， and 5-year relapse-free survival rates were 68.5%， 52.7%， and 46.2%， respectively， and the overall survival rates were 83.3%， 66.0%， and 57.1%， respectively. The patients who achieved TO had significantly better relapse-free survival rate and overall survival rate than those who did not achieve TO （χ²=18.936 and 79.371， both P<0.001）. ConclusionPreoperative PALBI grade can affect the achievement of TO after hepatectomy in HCC patients， and it is more difficult for patients with a higher PALBI grade to achieve TO. Preoperative PALBI score can be used to early identify the patients with a high risk of postoperative complications， provide early intervention， and enhance perioperative management， thereby improving the perioperative safety and long-term prognosis of HCC patients after hepatectomy.

Objective:To compare the efficacy of body posture combined with pharmacotherapy and pharmacotherapy alone in the treatment of chronic subdural hematoma(CSDH).Methods:Firstly, retrospective case series study was conducted. Thirty cases of CSDH that had received body posture combined with pharmacotherapy at Department of Neurosurgery, Huashan Hospital Affiliated to Fudan University from December 2016 to October 2020 were studied retrospectively. Twenty-seven patients were male, and 3 patients were female. The age of patients ( M(IQR)) was 66(16) years (range:28 to 84). Nineteen patients had unilateral hematoma, and 11 patients had bilateral hematoma. All patients received pharmacotherapy and body posture therapy that was to raise their lower limbs 20 to 30 cm with leg lift pad and get abdominal compressed with customized abdominal belt in supine position. Patients were required to maintain the body posture as much as possible, with the maximum to 16 to 18 hours per day. Patients with unilateral hematoma should tilt the head to the affected side and avoid tilting it to the opposite side. For patients with bilateral hematoma, there was no need for head lateralization. Patient were treated with oral dexamethasone and atorvastatin simultaneously. The preliminary efficacy of body posture combined with pharmacotherapy was determined by hematoma improvement rate which was analyzed by Clopper-Pearson method. Then, the multi-center, prospective, randomized controlled trial had carried out in 9 medical centers from August 2020 to November 2021. The stratified block randomization method was adopted. Patients were randomized in a ratio of 1∶1 to either receive pharmacotherapy alone(the control group) or body posture combined with pharmacotherapy(the experiment group) for 3 months and followed up for 6 months. Effective treatment was defined as complete absorption of hematoma, or the hematoma volume decreased by more than 10 ml and Markwalder grading scale score had improved by more than 1 point compared to the baseline. The efficacy rate and surgery conversion rate at 3 months and recurrence at 6 months were observed. Comparison between groups was performed with paired sample t test, Mann-Whitney U test, χ2 test, corrected χ2 test, or Fisher exact probability method. Logistic regression was used to compare the effective rate and operation rate between the two groups. Results:In the respective study, 30 patients completed follow-up 13 to 353 days after treatment. At the last follow-up, the incidence of almost complete absorption or significantly absorption of hematoma (hematoma volume was significantly reduced accompanied by symptom improvement) was 93.3%. The 95% CI for the incidence that analyzed by the Clopper-Pearson method was 77.9% to 99.2%. One hundred and six patients were enrolled in the multicenter study. Fifty-five patients underwent body posture combined with pharmacotherapy. The age was 74(17) years (range:26 to 92). Thirty-nine patients were males and 16 were females. Fifty-one patients underwent pharmacotherapy alone. The age was 69(12) years (range:48 to 84). Thirty-seven patients were males and 14 were females. The length of body posture recorded in diary card was (15.7±2.3) hours(range:7.6 to 19.3 hours). The efficacy rate in the body posture combined with pharmacotherapy group and pharmacotherapy alone group were 83.6% (46/55) and 56.9% (29/51), respectively at 3 months. The result of the logistic regression analysis showed that the efficacy of body posture combined with pharmacotherapy group was better than that of pharmacotherapy alone group ( OR=3.88,95% CI:1.57 to 9.58, P=0.003). Surgery rate in the body posture combined with pharmacotherapy group and pharmacotherapy alone group were 5.5% (3/55) and 21.6% (11/51) respectively. The result of Logistic regression showed that the pharmacotherapy alone group was more likely to be converted to surgery ( OR=0.21,95% CI:0.05 to 0.80, P=0.023). At the 6 months, no recurrence of cases was found in the body posture combined with pharmacotherapy group. However, the recurrence rate of pharmacotherapy alone group was 6.3% (3/48), there was no significant difference between the two groups ( P>0.05). Conclusion:The effect of body posture combined with pharmacotherapy for chronic subdural hematoma is better than that of pharmacotherapy alone.

Objective To integrate the Timing It Right(TIR)framework with Phase Ⅰ Cardiac Rehabilitation(CR)strategies to develop a staged,individualized rehabilitation protocol for patients after Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement(TAVR)and verify its clinical effectiveness.Methods A quasi-experimental study design was employed.A total of 128 TAVR patients admitted to Kunming Yan'an Hospital between January 2023 and December 2024 were selected as participants and randomly assigned via a random number table to either an intervention group(n=64)or a control group(n=64).The control group received routine care,while the intervention group received TIR theory-based Phase Ⅰ cardiac rehabilitation nursing care in addition to routine care.This intervention was implemented across three stages:diagnostic,perioperative,and discharge preparation period.Comparisons were made between the two groups regarding Left Ventricular Ejection Fraction(LVEF),the 6-Minute Walk Test(6MWT)distance,the incidence of Major Adverse Cardiac and Cerebrovascular Events(MACCE),scores across all domains of the China Questionnaire of Quality of Life in patients with Cardiovascular Diseases(CQQC),and patient satisfaction before and after the intervention.Results After the intervention,the intervention group demonstrated significantly higher LVEF and 6MWT results at both discharge and 3 months postoperatively compared to the control group(P<0.05).The incidence of MACCE was significantly lower in the intervention group(4.84％)than in the control group(13.33％).Scores across all CQQC domains and patient satisfaction were significantly superior in the intervention group than in the control group(P<0.05).Furthermore,The length of ICU stay and total hospitalization duration were significantly shorter in the intervention group compared to the control group(P<0.05).Conclusion Phase I cardiac rehabilitation nursing care based on the Timing It Right theory effectively improves cardiac function and exercise tolerance in TAVR patients,reduces the risk of MACCE.

Objective:To evaluate the associations of sociodemographic characteristics and lifestyle factors with longevity status in older adults in China.Methods:After excluding those born after 31 st December 1938, a total of 51 870 older adults from the China Kadoorie Biobank (CKB) were included. The attained age was defined according to the survival age or age on 31 st December 2018. According to the attained age, the old persons were categorized into non-longevity (died before age 80 years) and longevity (attained age ≥80 years). The longevity group was further divided into two groups: longevity with death occurring before 2019, and longevity and survival to 2019. The information about socio-demographic characteristics and lifestyles was collected at the 2004-2008 baseline survey. Multinomial logistic regression models were used to analyze the associations between exposure factors and outcomes by taking the non-longevity group as the reference group. Results:A total of 51 870 older adults aged 65-79 years in the baseline survey were included for analysis. During a follow-up for (10.2±3.5) years, 38 841 participants were longevity, and 30 354 participants still survived at the end of 2018. Compared to men, rural populations, non-married individuals, those with an annual household income of less than 10 000 yuan, and those with education levels of primary school or below, the adjusted ORs(95% CI) for longevity and survival to 2019 in women, urban residents, married individuals, those with annual household incomes ≥20 000 yuan, and those with education levels of college or university were 1.68 (1.58-1.78), 1.69 (1.61-1.78), 1.15 (1.10-1.21), 1.44 (1.36-1.53), and 1.32 (1.19-1.48), respectively. The OR (95% CI) for longevity and survival to 2019 was 1.09 (1.08-1.10) for those with an increase of 4 MET-hour/day in total physical activity level. With those who never or almost never smoked, had no alcohol drinking every week, had normal weight (BMI: 18.5-23.9 kg/m 2), and WC <85 cm (man)/<80 cm (woman) as the reference groups, the ORs(95% CI) of longevity and survival to 2019 were 0.64 (0.60-0.69) for those smoking ≥20 cigarettes per day, 1.29 (1.14-1.46) for those with alcohol drinking every week, 1.13 (1.01-1.26) for those with pure alcohol drinking <30 g per day, 0.56 (0.52-0.61) for those being underweight, 1.27 (1.19-1.36) for those being overweight, 1.23 (1.11-1.36) for those with obesity, and 0.86 (0.79-0.93) for those with central obesity. Further stratified analysis by WC was performed. In the older adults with WC <85 cm (man)/<80 cm (woman), the ORs (95% CI) of longevity and survival was 1.80 (1.69-1.92) for those with each 5 kg/m 2 increase in BMI and 1.02 (0.96-1.08) for those with WC ≥85 cm (man)/≥80 cm (woman). There was a statistically significant difference in the association between BMI and longevity between the two WC groups (interaction test P<0.001). Conclusion:This study showed that women, the married, those with higher socioeconomic status and education level, and those with healthy lifestyles were more likely to achieve longevity.

ObjectiveTo explore the relationship between the occupational noise exposure and arteriosclerosis in mechanical manufacturing workers. Methods A total of 453 employees of a machinery manufacturing enterprise were selected as the study subjects using the judgment sampling method. The noise exposure levels in their workplaces were measured, and their cumulative noise exposure (CNE) was assessed based on the type of job-noise exposure matrix and occupational hazard exposure history. Pure-tone audiometry was performed on the research subjects, and their brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity (baPWV) was measured. Results The CNE was (91±11) dB(A) per year and the median baPWV was 1 278.0 cm/s in the research subjects. The results of the generalized linear regression model analysis showed that for every one dB(A) per year increase in CNE, the baPWV of the general population increased by 0.20% ［95% confidence interval (CI) 0.10%-0.30%, P<0.01］, with an increase of 0.17% in males (95%CI 0.06%-0.28%, P<0.01) and 0.28% in females (95%CI 0.07%-0.49%, P<0.01). Using the hearing loss as an outcome indicator for high intensity noise exposure, the results showed that baPWV increased by 7.04% (95%CI 2.42%-11.87%, P<0.01) in individuals with bilateral hearing loss, and by 9.84% and 6.53% (95%CI 3.07%-17.07% and 2.13%-11.11%, all P<0.01) in individuals with elevated high-frequency hearing thresholds in both ears and in either ear, respectively. There was no significant association in elevated speech-frequency hearing thresholds and arteriosclerosis (P>0.05). Conclusion Occupational noise exposure may increase the risk of arteriosclerosis.

Recent progress in targeted metabolic therapy of cancer has been limited by the considerable toxicity associated with such drugs. To address this challenge, we developed a smart theranostic prodrug system that combines a fluorophore and an anticancer drug, specifically 6-diazo-5-oxo-l-norleucine (DON), using a thioketal linkage (TK). This system enables imaging, chemotherapy, photodynamic therapy, and on-demand drug release upon radiation exposure. The optimized prodrug, DON-TK-BM3, incorporating cyanine dyes as the fluorophore, displayed potent reactive oxygen species release and efficient tumor cell killing. Unlike the parent drug DON, DON-TK-BM3 exhibited no toxicity toward normal cells. Moreover, DON-TK-BM3 demonstrated high tumor accumulation and reduced side effects, including gastrointestinal toxicity, in mice. This study provides a practical strategy for designing prodrugs of metabolic inhibitors with significant toxicity stemming from their lack of tissue selectivity.

Experimental research on male infertility is critical to the study of the pathogenesis of male infertility and the evaluation of drug therapy. This paper reviewed animal experiments on male infertility in recent years. The experimental models of male infertility mainly include oligoasthenozoospermia （OA），teratozoospermia，azoospermia， and varicocele animal models. The OA animal models are mostly induced by glycosides of Tripterygium wilfordii （GTW）， adenine，hydrocortisone， and radiation，which are mainly chemical means. The animal models of azoospermia were usually constructed by intraperitoneal injection of bissulfonyl alkylating agent busulfan and immersion of scrotum in 43 ℃ water. There are few studies on animal models of teratozoospermia，and the induction methods by GTW and methyl methanesulfonate（MMS） are common. The animal models of varicocele-caused infertility are usually induced by operation. The ligation of the middle division of the left renal vein between the lateral inferior vena cava and the medial spermatic vein has a significant influence on testicular morphology and epididymal sperm quality. Animal experimental studies have shown that classic prescriptions for tonifying the kidney and promoting spermatogenesis represented by Wuzi Yanzongwan and clinical empirical prescriptions by modern research have played a significant role in the treatment of male infertility. The mechanism of tonifying the kidney in the treatment of male infertility mainly focuses on inhibiting spermatogenic cell apoptosis. The kidney-tonifying method can regulate the apoptosis of spermatogenic cells，which provides a new treatment idea and a reliable scientific basis for traditional Chinese medicine in the field of male reproduction.

Objective:To describe and analyze the epidemiological characteristics of premature death (death before age of 70 years) and related risk factors in approximate 100 000 adults recruited from 10 regions of China during a 10-year follow-up.Methods:Data, including demographic characteristics, lifestyle and physical indicators as well as health outcomes as of December 31, 2017, were obtained from baseline survey and long-term follow-up of the China Kadoorie Biobank (CKB) study. All-cause and cause-specific premature death in different areas, in men and women and in people with different lifestyles were analyzed. Cox proportional risk model was used to analyze the associations between baseline factors and premature death.Results:A total of 99 993 participants aged 56-69 years were included in the study. During 10 years of follow-up, 7 530 premature deaths were recorded and the premature death rate was 7.15 per 1 000 person-years. The main causes of premature death were cancer and cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. The premature mortality rate was higher in rural areas, in northern region and in men, and decreased with age ( P<0.05). Premature death was more likely to occur in smokers, and a dose-response relationship was observed. Compared with non-drinkers, the risk for premature death was higher in ex-drinkers ( HR: 1.25 [95% CI:1.16-1.36]) and heavy drinkers (average alcohol consumption ≥60 g/d) ( HR: 1.20 [95% CI:1.08-1.34]). The risk for premature death decreased with the increase of physical activity. Low body weight and central obesity were independently associated with increased risk for premature death ( HR: 1.67 [95% CI:1.55-1.81] and 1.13 [95% CI:1.05-1.21], respectively). Conclusions:The main causes of premature death in adults aged 56-69 years in China during 10-year follow-up were cancer and cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. The premature mortality rate varied with socioeconomic and demographic characteristics. The risk for premature death was influenced by multi factors, such as lifestyle and physical conditions.
