Objective:To explore the clinical features, histopathological morphology, and differential diagnosis of lymphoepithelioma-like carcinoma with abnormal expression of follicular dendritic cell markers.Methods:From 2020 to 2021, 4 cases of lymphoepithelioma-like carcinoma with abnormal expression of follicular dendritic cell markers diagnosed in Fujian Cancer Hospital (2 cases) and the Second Affiliated Hospital of Fujian Medical University (2 cases) were collected. Different ancillary procedures such as HE, special stains, immunohistochemistry, and in situ hybridization techniques were used to assess the histopathological features and immunophenotypes. The clinical data were collected and literature was reviewed.Results:All 4 cases of lymphoepithelioma-like carcinoma with abnormal expression of follicular dendritic cell markers were male. They were 32, 45, 67 and 39 years old, respectively. The main clinical manifestations were bloody phlegm, abdominal pain, fatigue and anorexia. The clinical stages at diagnosis were stage Ⅳ (3 cases) and stage Ⅱ (1 case). Cases 2 and 3 had two pathological examinations at different sites, with a total of six pathological examinations. The histomorphology showed singly scattered or nests of tumor cells in a background of abundant small lymphocytes. The tumor cells were enlarged and pleomorphic, some appeared polygonal with inconspicuous cell borders, and they were arranged in a syncytial pattern. There were megakaryocytes, multinucleated tumor cells, and a few spindle-shaped cells seen. Atypical mitosis was commonly noted. By immunohistochemistry, the tumor cells were positive for CKpan(5/6), CK8/18(4/4), CAM5.2(2/5), CK-H(0/4), CK-L(3/4), EMA(4/5), CK5/6(3/6), p63(1/6), p40(1/6), E-cadherin (4/6), SSTR2(6/6), PD-L1(5/5), LCA(0/6), vimentin(5/6), CD2 (6/6), CD23(6/6), CD35(5/6), CXCL-13(4/5) and D2-40(1/5). The Ki-67 proliferative index was 60%-95%. In situ hybridization for EBER were all positive (6/6). Special stain for reticulin showed positive staining surrounding nests of tumor cells.Conclusions:The expression of follicular dendritic cell markers in lymphoepithelioma-like carcinoma is very rare, which may be related to EBV infection. Occasionally, it can overlap with follicular dendritic cell sarcoma by morphology and immunophenotype, which can lead to misdiagnosis. Only by combining clinical information, morphological characteristics and immunophenotype can an appropriate diagnosis be made.

Objective:To investigate the prevalence and influencing factors of frailty among older adults diagnosed with non-ST-segment elevation acute coronary syndrome(NSTE-ACS).Methods:We conducted a cross-sectional study involving patients aged 65 years and older with NSTE-ACS, who were admitted to the Cardiology Center and the Department of Geriatrics at Beijing Friendship Hospital, Capital Medical University, between January 2020 and November 2021.Patients were categorized into non-frail, pre-frail, and frail groups based on the FRAIL scale.We collected clinical data, including general health conditions, comorbidities, laboratory results, treatments, and comprehensive geriatric assessments.Logistic regression analysis was employed to identify the influencing factors associated with frailty and pre-frailty in older adults with NSTE-ACS.Results:A total of 528 patients with NSTE-ACS were included in the study, comprising 308 males(58.3%)and 220 females(41.7%). The age range of participants was from 65 to 90 years, with a median age of 72(68, 76)years.The prevalence of frailty among older adults with NSTE-ACS was 11.4%(60/528), while pre-frailty was observed in 51.9%(274/528), and non-frailty in 36.7%(194/528). Compared to the non-frail and pre-frail groups, patients in the frail group were older, had a higher proportion of females, exhibited a greater prevalence of chronic diseases, and presented with elevated inflammatory markers.Additionally, frail patients demonstrated poorer nutritional status and reduced functional ability(all P<0.005). Risk factors for frailty in older adults with NSTE-ACS included older age( OR=1.110, 95% CI: 1.032-1.194, P=0.005), diabetes( OR=2.489, 95% CI: 1.091-5.679, P=0.030), cerebrovascular disease ( OR=4.151, 95% CI: 1.660-10.384, P=0.002), chronic kidney disease ( OR=42.874, 95% CI: 3.957-464.513, P=0.002), and elevated white blood cell levels( OR=1.424, 95% CI: 1.125-1.802, P=0.003). Conversely, being male( OR=0.252, 95% CI: 0.105-0.604, P=0.002)was identified as a protective factor against frailty in this patient population.For pre-frail older adults with NSTE-ACS, identified risk factors included diabetes( OR=1.882, 95% CI: 1.199-2.955, P=0.006), cerebrovascular disease( OR=1.938, 95% CI: 1.176-3.195, P=0.009), and chronic kidney disease ( OR=12.137, 95% CI: 1.536-95.934, P=0.018). Similarly, being male( OR=0.601, 95% CI: 0.376-0.961, P=0.033)was also a protective factor for pre-frailty in older adults with NSTE-ACS. Conclusions:The prevalence of frailty and pre-frailty among older adults with NSTE-ACS is notably high.Common risk factors for frailty and pre-frailty in this population include female gender, diabetes, cerebrovascular disease, and chronic kidney disease.

Objective:To evaluate the effect of liposomal bupivacaine transversus abdominis plane block (TAPB) on the postoperative quality of recovery in patients undergoing laparoscopic colorectal surgery.Methods:In this randomized controlled trial, 100 patients of either sex, aged 18-75 yr, with a body mass index of 18.5-29.9 kg/m 2, of American Society of Anesthesiologists Physical Status classification Ⅰ or Ⅱ, scheduled for elective laparoscopic colorectal surgery, were allocated into 2 groups ( n=50 each) in a 1∶1 ratio using a random number table method: liposomal bupivacaine TAPB group (LB group) and hydrochloric bupivacaine TAPB group (HB group). Before anesthesia induction, ultrasound-guided bilateral TAPB was performed, liposomal bupivacaine (266 mg) 40 ml (20 ml per side) was injected in LB group, and bupivacaine hydrochloride (100 mg) 40 ml (20 ml per side) was injected in HB group. When pain scores at rest ≥4 within 72 h after the end of surgery, patient-controlled intravenous analgesia with morphine injectio 3 mg was used. The Quality of Recovery-15 scale score was recorded at 24, 48 and 72 h postoperatively. The time to first rescue analgesia and total consumption of morphine within 72 h after operation were recorded. The occurrence of adverse reactions, including nausea and vomiting, urinary retention, pruritus, local anesthetic toxicity and hematoma at the puncture site, was recorded within 72 h after surgery. Results:Compared to HB group, Quality of Recovery-15 scale scores were significantly increased at 24, 48 and 72 h postoperatively, the time to first rescue analgesia was prolonged, the consumption of morphine was reduced within 72 h postoperatively, and the incidence of postoperative nausea and vomiting was decreased( P<0.05), and no statistically significant changes in the incidence of urinary retention or pruritus were found within 72 h postoperatively in LB group ( P>0.05). No local anesthetic toxicity or hematoma at the puncture site occurred in either group. Conclusions:Liposomal bupivacaine TAPB can improve the postoperative quality of recovery in the patients undergoing laparoscopic radical resection for colorectal cancer.

Objective To summarize the experience of multi-disciplinary team(MDT)in the pediatric department of Qujing Maternal and Child Health Hospital,and to evaluate the effectiveness of MDT on neonatal brain injury.Methods The clinical data of children with brain injury and treated in the pediatrics department of Qujing Maternal and Child Health Hospital from November 2019 to April 2023 were collected.The children with brain injury and treated from October 2019 to June 2020 were regarded as the non-MDT group,and the children with brain injury and treated from July 2020 to April 2023 were regarded as the MDT group for comparative analysis.Chi-square test/t-test was used to compare and analyze the clinical data of the two groups.Results Among the 890 cases of pediatric brain injury,there were 519 males and 371 females.The median and quartiles of the age distribution for the two groups were as follows:MDT group 2.00(0.82,5.00)years and non-MDT group 1.00(1.00,4.00)years.Craniocerebral injury was the main type of brain injury in both groups,in addition,among children with craniocerebral injury and intracranial hemorrhage,the cure rate of MDT group was higher than that of non-MDT group,and the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05).Among the 405 children in MDT group,154(38.0%)underwent the surgery,while among the 485 children in non-MDT group,121(24.9%)underwent the surgery.The difference was statistically significant(P<0.05).23.2% of children in MDT group were in critical condition during the hospitalization,which was significantly lower than that in non-MDT group(30.5%),and the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05).The unhealed rate of MDT group(2.0%)was also significantly lower than that of non-MDT group(5.6%),the cure rate of MDT group(40.5%)was significantly higher than that of non-MDT group(34.4%),and there was a statistically significant difference(P<0.05).The expense of treatment,medicine and sanitary materials in MDT group were lower than those in non-MDT group,and the differences were statistically significant(P<0.05).The multivariate Logistic regression model analysis of the cure rate of children with brain injury showed that the MDT model could effectively improve the cure rate of children with brain injury(RR = 1.513,95% CI = 1.134-2.020).The results of multiple linear regression model analysis showed that there was no statistical difference in the effect of MDT on the actual hospitalization days of children(P>0.05).Conclusion Using MDT model to diagnose and treat children with brain injury is helpful to improve the cure rate,reduce the risk of children's disease aggravation,and achieve the significant therapeutic effects in children with brain injury.MDT model is worth popularizing and applying in children with brain injury.

Objective: To understand the needs of parents of kindergarten children in urban areas for online training on sexuality education, so as to provide a basis for the development of parent training courses. Methods: In May 2023, a multistage cluster random sampling method was used to select 3 516 parents of young children from 12 kindergartens in urban areas of Changshou District, Chongqing. A self designed questionnaire on Knowledge, Attitude and Practice of Early Childhood Sexuality Education (Parents) was used for the survey, and χ 2 test and multi factor Logistic regression model were used for data analysis. Results: The online training demand rate of urban parents for early childhood sexuality education was 57.05%. The results of the multi factor Logistic regression analysis showed that age, education level, occupation, whether or not they were the main caregivers, total score level of the scale, awareness of their own responsibility, communication with family and friends about early childhood sexuality education and young children s participation in kindergarten sexuality education activities were the influencing factors of parents online training demand on sexuality education ( OR =1.18, 1.44, 1.42, 0.83, 1.19, 0.51, 0.75, 0.75, P <0.05). Conclusion Urban parents have a high demand for online training on early childhood sexuality education, and training courses should be developed according to the specific needs and characteristics of parents of young children.

AIM:Bone morphogenetic protein 7(BMP7)reduces the expression of Yes-related protein 1(YAP1)by down-regulating Ajuba level and decreasing extracellular matrix(ECM)deposition.This study aimed to inves-tigate the influence of these factors on modifying the degree of renal fibrosis in rats with diabetic nephropathy.METH-ODS:Eighteen Sprague-Dawley(SD)rats were randomly divided into three groups:the normal control(NC)group,the diabetes mellitus(DM)group,and the DM group treated with BMP7 overexpressing adeno-associated virus(DM+rAAV-BMP7).Each group consisted of six rats.Diabetic kidney disease(DKD)was established in the DM and DM+rAAV-BMP7 groups by injecting 55 mg/kg streptozotocin(STZ)via the tail vein.NRK-52E cells were divided into three groups:the normal glucose(NG)group,the high glucose(HG)group,and the high glucose group treated with recombinant hu-man BMP7(HG+rhBMP7)group.Pathological changes in renal tissues were observed using hematoxylin and eosin(HE)and Sirius red staining.Immunohistochemical staining was performed to examine the expression sites of Ajuba and YAP1 in the renal cortex.Western blot analysis was conducted to determine the expression levels of BMP7,Ajuba,YAP1,colla-gen type Ⅲ(Col-Ⅲ),and fibronectin(FN)in the rat renal cortex and NRK-52E cells.RT-qPCR was used to measure the mRNA levels of Ajuba and YAP1 in the rat renal cortex.RESULTS:Biochemical indices revealed significantly ele-vated levels of blood glucose,serum creatinine,triglycerides,total cholesterol,and 24-hour urinary protein in the DM group compared to the NC group(P<0.05).In the DM+rAAV-BMP7 group,the levels of serum creatinine,24-hour uri-nary protein,triglycerides,and total cholesterol were lower than those in the DM group(P<0.05).Pathological staining demonstrated that the renal interstitium of the DM group exhibited inflammatory cell infiltration,fibrous tissue,collagen fi-ber deposition,disordered renal tubule arrangement,atrophy,and vacuolar degeneration,which were ameliorated in the DM+rAAV-BMP7 group.Immunohistochemistry revealed that Ajuba and YAP1 were mainly expressed in the cytoplasm and nucleus,with high expression in the cytoplasm of the DM group,which was significantly decreased in the DM+rAAV-BMP7 group.Western blot results indicated that the protein levels of FN,Col-Ⅲ,Ajuba,and YAP1 were up-regulated in the DM and the HG groups(P<0.05),but significantly down-regulated in the DM+rAAV-BMP7 group(P<0.05).RT-qP-CR results demonstrated that the mRNA levels of Ajuba and YAP1 were higher in the DM group and significantly lower in the DM+rAAV-BMP7 group(P<0.05).CONCLUSION:The overexpression of BMP7 can ameliorate renal fibrosis in rats with DKD.This effect is likely mediated by the down-regulation of Ajuba,reduction of YAP1 expression,and subse-quent inhibition of ECM deposition.

Objectives:To finely divide the aortic sinus into sections and accurately localize the coronary ostium through CARTO three-dimensional mapping,and to assess the clinical effects of treating aortic sinus cusps premature ventricular contraction(ASC-PVC)and the ablation risk in the corresponding area with zero X-ray radiofrequency ablation. Methods:A total of 66 patients who underwent radiofrequency ablation for ASC-PVC from January 2020 to January 2023 were included in this analysis,patients were divided into experimental group(n=34)and conventional group(n=32).In the conventional group,the CARTO 3 system was used to create an aortic sinus model through the conventional method.The earliest stimulating target was identified by using electrical stimulation mapping(ESM).Radiofrequency ablation treatment was performed after the distance between the target and the coronary ostium was precisely measured by coronary angiography through the hollow tube of the ablation catheter or coronary angiography tube.In the experimental group,the CARTO 3 system was used to build a model of the aortic sinus and the coronary ostium and aortic sinus were divided into sections.The earliest stimulating target was identified by ESM.After localizing coronary ostium through the impedance changing pattern on the ablation catheter tips,catheter ablation was performed with zero X-ray.The data regarding the impedance of the ablation catheter in the aortic sinus were collected.The total operative time,the operative time in the aortic sinus,contrast dosage,X-ray exposure time,immediate and short-term success rates of the operation and complication rates were compared between the two groups.Besides,the distribution of successfully ablated targets and their relationship with the risk of ablation were analyzed in both groups. Results:There was no significant statistical difference in the immediate and short-term success rates between the two groups(93.8%vs.94.1%;90.6%vs.88.2%,both P>0.05).The experimental group did not receive contrast agents during the operation,and the total operation time and intra-aortic sinus operation time in the experimental group were significantly shorter than those in the conventional group([58.76±4.94]min vs.[66.91±5.94]min,P<0.001;[43.12±4.49]min vs.[50.31±5.18]min,P<0.001).During the process of moving the ablation catheter from the intra-aortic sinus to the coronary artery opening and into the coronary artery,the impedance suddenly increased,which was significantly different from the impedance in other parts of the intra-aortic sinus(all P<0.001). Conclusions:Radiofrequency ablation of ASC-PVC with zero X-ray can simplify the procedures and shorten the operative time.The steep increase in impedance at the tip of the ablation catheter can be used as a basis for localizing the coronary ostium.Dividing the aortic sinus into sections allows a detailed assessment of the risk for ablation treatment at the targets.
