Objective:To evaluate the effect of 5th generation mobile communication technology(5G) remote robot-assisted cholecystectomy on postoperative recovery and quality of life in patients with gallstones.Methods:Clinical data of patients who underwent 5G remote robotic cholecystectomy(20 cases) vs traditional robotic cholecystectomy(20 cases) at Gansu Provincial People's Hospital from May to September 2023 were retrospectively analyzed. Intraoperative and postoperative related indexes were compared between the two groups, and changes in pain analog scores before, 12 hours, and 24 hours after surgery, and global quality of life (GIQLI) scores before and 3 months after surgery were evaluated.Results:There was no significant difference between the two groups in terms of intraoperative and postoperative conditions (intraoperative blood loss, operative time, time to exhaustion, and length of hospital stay). Patients' pain analog scores at 12 and 24 hours postoperatively were lower than preoperatively, but the differences were not statistically significant( P>0.05). In addition, there was no significant difference in recovery indicators between the two groups compared to the control group ( P>0.05). Conclusion:The postoperative recovery metrics of 5G tele-robotic-assisted cholecystectomy were consistent with the results of conventional robotic surgery.

Objective:This study aimed to construct a risk prediction model for obstructive sleep apnea(OSA) related hypertension based on the nomogram, and to explore the independent risk factors for OSA-related hypertension, so as to provide reference for clinical treatment decision-making. Methods:The clinical data of OSA patients diagnosed by polysomnography from October 2019 to December 2021 were collected retrospectively and randomly divided into training sets and validation sets. A total of 1 493 OSA patients with 27 variables were included. The least absolute shrinkage and selection operator(Lasso) logistic regression model was used to select potentially relevant features and establish a nomogram for OSA-related hypertension.The performance and clinical benefits of this nomogram were verified in terms of discrimination, calibration ability and clinical net benefit. Results:Multivariate logistic regression showed that body mass index(BMI), family history of hypertension, lowest oxygen saturation(LSaO2), age and cumulative percentage of total sleep time with oxygen saturation below 90% were independent risk factors for OSA-related hypertension. Lasso logistic regression identified BMI, family history of hypertension, LSaO2 and age as predictive factors for inclusion in the nomogram. The nomogram provided a favorable discrimination, with a C-indexes of 0.835(95% confidence interval[CI ]0.806-0.863) 0.865(95%CI 0.829-0.900) for the training and validation cohort, respectively, and well calibrated. The clinical decision curve analysis displayed that the nomogram was clinically useful. Conclusion:Compared with cumulative percentage of total sleep time with blood oxygen saturation below 90%, LSaO2 may have a greater impact on the incidence of OSA-related hypertension, and the effects of different times and degrees of hypoxia on OSA-related hypertension should be further explored in the future. Apnea hypopnea index involvement is weak in predicting OSA-related hypertension, and the blood oxygen index may be a better predictor variable. Furthermore, we established a risk prediction model for OSA-related hypertension patients using nomogram, and demonstrated that this prediction model was helpful to identify high-risk OSA-related hypertension patients. This model can provide early and individualized diagnosis and treatment plans, protect patients from the serious.

Objective:To investigate the clinical features and outcomes of adolescence-onset methylmalonic acidemia (MMA) and explore preventive strategies.Methods:This was a retrospective case analysis of the phenotypes, genotypes and prognoses of adolescence-onset MMA patients. There were 55 patients diagnosed in Peking University First Hospital from January 2002 to June 2023, the data of symptoms, signs, laboratory results, gene variations, and outcomes was collected. The follow-ups were done through WeChat, telephone, or clinic visits every 3 to 6 months.Results:Among the 55 patients, 31 were males and 24 were females. The age of onset was 12 years old (range 10-18 years old). They visited clinics at Tanner stages 2 to 5 with typical secondary sexual characteristics. Nine cases (16%) were trigged by infection and 5 cases (9%) were triggered by insidious exercises. The period from onset to diagnosis was between 2 months and 6 years. Forty-five cases (82%) had neuropsychiatric symptoms as the main symptoms, followed by cardiovascular symptoms in 12 cases (22%), kidney damage in 7 cases (13%), and eye disease in 12 cases (22%). Fifty-four cases (98%) had the biochemical characteristics of methylmalonic acidemia combined with homocysteinemia, and 1 case (2%) had the isolated methylmalonic acidemia. Genetic diagnosis was obtained in 54 cases, with 20 variants identified in MMACHC gene and 2 in MMUT gene. In 53 children with MMACHC gene mutation,1 case had dual gene variants of PRDX1 and MMACHC, with 105 alleles. The top 5 frequent variants in MMACHC were c.482G>A in 39 alleles (37%), c.609G>A in 17 alleles (16%), c.658_660delAAG in 11 alleles (10%), c.80A>G in 10 alleles (10%), c.567dupT and c.394C>T both are 4 alleles (4%). All patients recovered using cobalamin, L-carnitine, betaine, and symptomatic therapy, and 54 patients (98%) returned to school or work.Conclusions:Patients with adolescence-onset MMA may triggered by fatigue or infection. The diagnosis is often delayed due to non-specific symptoms. Metabolic and genetic tests are crucial for a definite diagnosis. Treatment with cobalamin, L-carnitine, and betaine can effectively reverse the prognosis of MMA in adolescence-onset patients.
