Objective To explore the incidence rate and independent risk factors of synchronous multiple early gastric cancer (SMEGC) in patients with early gastric cancer, and to provide evidence for early screening and intervention of high-risk population. Methods A retrospective analysis was performed on 308 patients with early gastric cancer who received treatment in the hospital from March 2019 to March 2024. The incidence rate of SMEGC was counted, and the risk factors were analyzed by univariate and multivariate Logistic regression analyses. Results Among the 308 patients with early gastric cancer in this study, 23 cases were SMEGC and 285 were single early gastric cancer, which were included in the SMEGC group and the single group respectively. The incidence rate of SMEGC was 7.47% (23/308). Compared with the single group, the proportions of male, smoking history, tumor diameter≤2 mm, chronic atrophic gastritis and intestinal metaplasia degree were higher in the SMEGC group (2=4.331、8.608、4.618、6.490、4.897，P=0.037、0.003、0.032、0.001、0.027). Logistic regression analysis suggested that chronic atrophic gastritis (OR=3.133, 95%CI: 1.240-7.918) and moderate-to-severe intestinal metaplasia (OR=3.171, 95%CI: 1.252-8.029) were independent risk factors for SMEGC (P<0.05). Conclusion Some patients with early gastric cancer are SMEGC. Chronic atrophic gastritis and moderate-to-severe intestinal metaplasia are independent risk factors affecting the occurrence of SMEGC. It is recommended to regularly screen high-risk patients and optimize management strategies to reduce the risk of SMEGC.

Objective To explore clinical effect of closed reduction percutaneous elastic intramedullary nail assisted by arthrography in the treatment of radial neck fracture in children.Methods A retrospective analysis was performed on 23 chil-dren with radial neck fracture treated with arthrography assisted closed reduction and percutaneous elastic intramedullary nail internal fixation(arthrography with elastic nail group)from January 2019 to December 2022,including 12 males and 11 fe-males,aged from 2 to 12 years old with an average of(7.36±1.89)years old;According to Judet fracture types,14 children were type Ⅲ and 9 children were type Ⅳ.In addition,23 children with radial neck fracture were selected from January 2015 to December 2018 who were treated with closed reduction and percutaneous elastic intramedullary nail fixation(elastic nail group),including 11 males and 12 females,aged from 2 to 14 years old with an average of(7.50±1.91)years old;Judet classi-fication included 15 children were type Ⅲ and 8 children were type Ⅳ.Operative time and intraoperative fluoroscopy times were compared between two groups.Metaizeau evaluation criteria was used to evaluate fracture reduction,and Tibone-Stoltz evaluation criteria was used to evaluate functional recovery of elbow between two groups.Results Both groups were followed up for 12 to 24 months with an average of(16.56±6.34)months.Operative time and intraoperative fluoroscopy times of elastic nail group were(56.64±19.27)min and(21.13±7.87)times,while those of joint angiography with elastic nail group were(40.33±1 1.50)min and(12.10±3.52)times;there were difference between two groups(P＜0.05).According to Metaizeau evaluation,11 patients got excellent result,9 good and 3 fair in joint angiography with elastic nail group,while in elastic nail group,5 ex-cellent,13 good,4 acceptable,and 1 poor;the difference between two groups was statistically significant(P＜0.05).According to Tibone-Stoltz criteria,14 patients got excellent result,8 good,and 1 fair in joint arthrography with elastic nail group;while in elastic nail group,12 patients got excellent result,9 good,1 fair and 1 poor;there was no significant difference between two groups(P＞0.05).Conclusion Compared to percutaneous elastic intramedullary nail fixation,closed reduction assisted by arthrography has advantages of reduced operation time,decreased intraoperative fluoroscopy frequency,and improved fracture reduction.Arthrography enables clear visualization of the anatomical structures of radius,head,neck,bone,and cartilage in children,facilitating comprehensive display of fracture reduction and brachioradial joint alignment.This technique more pre-cisely guides the depth of elastic intramedullary nail implantation in radius neck,thereby enhancing surgical efficiency and success rate.

Objective To investigate the value of optical coherence tomography(OCT)in predicting the risk of major adverse cardiovascular events(MACE)in patients of acute coronary syndrome(ACS).Methods Four hundred and forth-eight ACS patients admitted to the First Affiliated Hospital of Xinjiang Medical University who underwent percutaneous coronary intervention(PCI)and OCT from February 2015 to February 2022 were selected as the study subjects.We found 749 non-culprit coronary lesions.And follow up the patients,median follow-up was 5 years[interquartile interval(IQR):3-7 years].Kaplan-meier was used to estimate the cumulative incidence of MACE,multivariate Cox regression was used to analyze the risk of MACE with OCT parameters non-culprit coronary lesions,and receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve was used to evaluate the predictive value of OCT parameters for MACE in non-culprit coronary lesions.Results A total of 749 non-culprit coronary lesions were detected,and 41 MACE cases were caused by non-culprit coronary lesions imaged by OCT.Compared with plaques without thin-cap fibroatheroma(TCFA)and minimal lumen area(MLA)＜3.5 mm2,the incidence of MACE was significantly associated with vulnerable plaques with TCFA and MLA＜3.5 mm2(33％vs.3％,HR 13.62,95％CI 6.71-27.65,P＜0.001).Multivariate Cox regression analysis showed that larger maximum lipid arc(HR 1.02,95％CI 1.01-1.03,P＜0.001),smaller maximum lipid cap thickness(HR 0.97,95％CI 0.96-0.99,P＜0.001)and MLA(HR 0.31,95％CI 0.18-0.55,P＜0.001)were independent risk factors for MACE.The area under ROC curve(AUC)of the thinnest fiber cap thickness for predicting MACE occurrence was 0.858(95％CI 0.802-0.913),and the optimal cutoff value was 66.5 μm.The AUC of maximum lipid arc for predicting MACE occurrence was 0.853(95％CI 0.786-0.920),and the optimal cut-off value was 180.35°.The AUC of MLA for predicting MACE was 0.821(95％CI 0.766-0.876),and the optimal cutoff was 3.575 mm2.Conclusions The non-culprit coronary lesions with TCFA and MLA＜3.5 mm2 were significantly associated with an increased risk of subsequent MACE development at the lesion level,and OCT imaging helps early identification of the risk of MACE development in non-culprit coronary lesions in patients of ACS.

Objective:To investigate the impact of daily activities on cognitive function in retired elderly people in Changsha.Methods:A study was conducted on retired individuals aged 60 years or older who participated in our hospital's community free clinic from January 2021 to October 2021.A total of 325 elderly people were surveyed.After obtaining their informed consent, they were evaluated in a relatively quiet environment using the Mini-Mental State Examination(MMSE), the Athens Insomnia Scale, and a self-made questionnaire.Multifactorial logistic regression analysis was used to analyze the factors influencing cognitive function.Results:A total of 304 valid questionnaires were collected, consisting of 180 individuals in the normal cognition group and 124 in the cognitive impairment group.The cognition scores for the two groups were(25.77±2.08)and(18.86±3.74), respectively.Comparisons were made between the two groups in terms of general information, sleep conditions, and daily activities.Multifactorial regression analysis revealed that engaging in labor before retirement( OR, 2.105; 95% CI: 1.040-4.262)higher education levels( OR, 0.416; 95% CI: 0.182-0.950), maintaining contact with relatives and friends( OR, 0.205; 95% CI: 0.080-0.529), nurturing plants or pets( OR, 0.264; 95% CI: 0.124-0.563), and caring for grandchildren( OR, 0.325; 95% CI: 0.158-0.665)were identified as protective factors against cognitive impairment( P<0.05). Conclusions:Encouraging active participation of elderly individuals in beneficial community activities is crucial, while also emphasizing the importance of social relationships among retired individuals to mitigate the onset of cognitive impairment.

Objective: Whether peripheral blood 5-hydroxytrptamine (5-HT) levels serve as biomarker for depression diagnosis/response evaluation has not been well determined. This work was explored to address this inconclusive issue. Methods: Animals were randomized into normal control group (NC, n = 10) and chronic unpredictable mild stress model group (CUMS-model, n = 20), respectively. Animals in CUMS-model group were subjected to chronic stress, then they were randomly subdivided into CUMS subgroup and CUMS + fluoxetine subgroup (CUMS + FLX). After FLX treatment, blood and tissues were collected. 5-HT and relevant protein expression were measured. Results: In mice model, there was a significant increase in serum and a significant reduction in plasma 5-HT levels in CUMS-model group versus NC group, while platelet 5-HT levels change little. After FLX treatment, serum and platelet 5-HT levels were significantly decreased in CUMS + FLX subgroup, while plasma 5-HT levels had not much change versus CUMS subgroup. Chronic stress enhanced colon and platelet serotonin transporter (SERT) expression and FLX treatment mitigated SERT expression. In rats’ model, there was a significant increase in serum 5-HT levels while plasma and platelet 5-HT levels showed little change in CUMS group versus NC group. After FLX treatment, serum, plasma and platelet 5-HT levels were significantly decreased in CUMS + FLX subgroup versus CUMS subgroup. The profile of relevant proteins expression changed by FLX were like those in mice. Conclusion Serum 5-HT levels might serve as a potential biomarker for depression diagnosis, meanwhile serum and platelet 5-HT levels might respond to antidepressant treatment.

Patients with severe trauma require an extremely timely treatment and transfusion plays an irreplaceable role in the emergency treatment of such patients. An increasing number of evidence-based medicinal evidences and clinical practices suggest that patients with severe traumatic bleeding benefit from early transfusion of low-titer group O whole blood or hemostatic resuscitation with red blood cells, plasma and platelet of a balanced ratio. However, the current domestic mode of blood supply cannot fully meet the requirements of timely and effective blood transfusion for emergency treatment of patients with severe trauma in clinical practice. In order to solve the key problems in blood supply and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma, Branch of Clinical Transfusion Medicine of Chinese Medical Association, Group for Trauma Emergency Care and Multiple Injuries of Trauma Branch of Chinese Medical Association, Young Scholar Group of Disaster Medicine Branch of Chinese Medical Association organized domestic experts of blood transfusion medicine and trauma treatment to jointly formulate Chinese expert consensus on blood support mode and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma patients ( version 2024). Based on the evidence-based medical evidence and Delphi method of expert consultation and voting, 10 recommendations were put forward from two aspects of blood support mode and transfusion strategies, aiming to provide a reference for transfusion resuscitation in the emergency treatment of severe trauma and further improve the success rate of treatment of patients with severe trauma.

Bone organoids can simulate the complex structure and function of the bone tissues, which makes them a frontier technology in organoid researches. Bone organoids show a tremendous potential of applications in bone disease modeling, bone injury repair, and medicine screening. Although advancements have been made so far in constructing bone organoids with functional structures like mineralization, bone marrow, trabecular bone, callus, woven bone, etc, the researches in this field are confronted with numerous challenges such as lack of standardized construction strategies and unified evaluation criteria, which limits their further promotion and application. To standardize researches in bone organoids, the Orthopedic Expert Committee of Geriatric Branch of Chinese Association of Gerontology and Geriatrics, the Youth Osteoporosis Group of Orthopedic Branch of Chinese Medical Association, the Osteoporosis Group of Orthopedic Surgeon Branch of Chinese Medical Doctor Association, and the Osteoporosis Committee of Shanghai Association of Integrated Traditional Chinese and Western Medicine organized related experts to formulate Expert consensus on the construction, evaluation, and application of bone organoids ( version 2024) based on an evidence-based approach. A total of 17 recommendations were put forth, aiming to standardize researches and clinical applications of bone organoids and enhance their value in scientific research and clinical practice.
