Objective To investigate the clinical efficacy of Zhikang Capsules plus Compound Huangbai Lotion for retention enema in the treatment of patients with mild to moderate distal ulcerative colitis(UC)of damp-heat in large intestine type,and to observe their effects on the serum levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines of tumor necrosis factor α(TNF-α),interleukin 6(IL-6)and C-reactive protein(CRP).Methods A total of 110 patients with mild to moderate distal UC of damp-heat in large intestine type who were treated in the Outpatient Clinics and Wards of the Third Affiliated Hospital of Henan University of Traditional Chinese Medicine from October 2022 to December 2023 were randomly divided into an observation group and a control group according to random number table method,with 55 patients in each group.The control group was given retention enema with 1 g of Xilei Powder and 50 mL of Compound Huangbai Lotion before going to bed every night,while the observation group was given retention enema with 2.4 g of Zhikang Capsules and 50 mL of Compound Huangbai Lotion before going to bed every night The course of treatment for the two groups covered 14 days.The changes in the serum inflammation factors,coagulation function indicators,traditional Chinese medicine(TCM)syndrome scores,and the Inflammatory Bowel Disease Quality of Life Questionnaire(IBDQ)scores in the two groups were observed before and after treatment.After treatment,the clinical efficacy and drug safety in the two groups were evaluated.Results(1)After 14 days of treatment,the total effective rate of the observation group was 90.91％(50/55)and that of the control group was 80.00％(44/55),and the intergroup comparison(tested by rank sum test)showed that the therapeutic efficacy of the observation group was significantly superior to that of the control group(P＜0.01).(2)After treatment,the serum levels of inflammation factors of TNF-α,IL-6,and CRP patients in the two groups were decreased compared with those before treatment(P＜0.05),and the decrease in the observation group was significantly superior to that in the control group(P＜0.05 or P＜0.01).(3)After treatment,the prothrombin time(PT)and fibrinogen(FIB)of the two groups of patients were improved compared with those before treatment(P＜0.05),while the improvement of thrombin time(TT)and activated partial thromboplastin time(APTT)were not obvious when compared with those before treatment(P＞0.05);the comparison between the two groups showed that the improvement of PT and FIB in the observation group was significantly superior to that in the control group(P＜0.05 or P＜0.01).(4)After treatment,the scores of TCM symptoms of diarrhea,mucous-purulent and bloody stool,tenesmus,scorching sensation of the anus in the two groups were decreased compared with those before treatment(P＜0.05),and the decrease in the observation group was significantly superior to that in the control group(P＜0.05 or P＜0.01).(5)After treatment,the scores of IBDQ items of general symptoms,intestinal symptoms,social functioning,emotional role functioning in the two groups were increased compared with those before treatment(P＜0.05),and the increase in the observation group was significantly superior to that in the control group(P＜0.01).(6)During the treatment,no obvious adverse reactions occurred in the two groups,with higher safety.Conclusion Zhikang Capsules plus Compound Huangbai Lotion for retention enema are effective and safe in treating mild to moderate distal UC of damp-heat in large intestine type.The therapy can effectively control the illness of UC,alleviate the clinical symptoms and negative emotions,improve the inflammatory response and coagulation function,and enhance the quality of life of the patients.

Objective:To explore the feasibility and safety of retrograde single incision laparoscopic cholecystectomy (SILC) with combined suspension of ligamentum teres hepatis.Methods:A retrospective cohort study was conducted to collect clinical data of 570 cases of laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) admitted to the Department of Pancreatic and Bariatric Surgery of Nanjing Drum Tower Hospital from December 2021 to December 2023. Based on the operation methods, 282 cases were classified into retrograde SILC group, 288 cases were classified into three incision LC group. Observation indicators including surgical related index, and incidence of postoperative complications. The continuity data were presented as medium, and compared using Mann-Whitney U test. The comparison of count data between groups was conducted using the chi-square test or Fisher exact probability test. Results:All cases were successfully performed cholecystectomy. The duration of surgery and the proportion of changes in surgical methods in the SILC group were 45(35, 55) minutes and 12.1%, respectively, while in the three port group they were 50(40, 65) minutes and 1.4%, respectively. The difference between the two groups was statistically significant ( P<0.05). The intraoperative bleeding volume, postoperative hospitalization time, and total hospitalization cost of the SILC group were 20(16, 28) mL, 1(1, 1) day, and 13.4(12.9, 14.1) thousand yuan, respectively. The three port group was 18(16, 23) mL, 1(1, 1) day, and 13.4(12.4, 14.6) thousand yuan, respectively. There was no statistically significant difference between the two groups( P>0.05). In terms of postoperative complications, the overall incidence of SILC and three port group were 4.6% and 3.5% respectively, which did not reach significant statistically difference( P>0.05). Meanwhile, there was no statistically significant difference( P>0.05) in the incidence of biliary tract injury, postoperative bile leakage, postoperative bleeding, incision liquefaction infection, and incision hernia between the two groups. Conclusion:The retrograde single incision laproscopic retrograde cholecystectomy combined with ligamentum teres hepatis suspension can achieve satisfactory therapeutic effects without increasing the surgical duration.

Depressive disorder ranks as a major bur-den of disease worldwide,yet the current antidepressant medications are limited by frequent non-responsiveness and significant side effects.The lateral septum(LS)is thought to control of depression,however,the cellular and circuit substrates are largely unknown.Here,we identified a subpopulation of LS GABAergic adenosine A2A receptors(A2AR)-positive neurons mediating depres-sive symptoms via direct projects to the lateral habenula(LHb)and the dorsomedial hypothalamus(DMH).Activa-tion of A2AR in the LS augmented the spiking frequency of A2AR-positive neurons leading to a decreased activation of surrounding neurons and the bi-directional manipula-tion of LS-A2AR activity demonstrated that LS-A2ARs are necessary and sufficient to trigger depressive pheno-types.Thus,the optogenetic modulation(stimulation or inhibition)of LS-A2AR-positive neuronal activity or LS-A2AR-positive neurons projection terminals to the LHb or DMH,phenocopied depressive behaviors.Moreover,A2AR are upregulated in the LS in two male mouse mod-els of repeated stress-induced depression.This identifica-tion that aberrantly increased A2AR signaling in the LS is a critical upstream regulator of repeated stress-induced depressive-like behaviors provides a neurophysiological and circuit-based justification of the antidepressant poten-tial of A2AR antagonists,prompting their clinical transla-tion.

Objective:To analyze students' learning behavior in the teaching practice of the presentation-assimilation-discussion (PAD) class based on Xuexitong platform.Methods:The PAD class based on Xuexitong platform was applied to the course of child and adolescent health in the specialty of preventive medicine. And the data were collected from the platform to analyze students' learning behavior, including the number of visits and its rules, the completion rate and duration of homework submission, the completion rate of task points, and the number of students participating in discussions. Questionnaires were used to investigate students' evaluation of the learning effect. SPSS 17.0 was used for Mann-Whitney U test, Kruskal Wallis H, and Chi-square test. Results:A total of 99 students visited the platform 40 322 times over 84 days, with a peak on the day of the discussion class, with the highest number of visits from 16:00 to 20:00, and 29.3% (29/99) of them visited the platform for less than 40 days. The completion rate of homework submission was 98.0% (582/594), with 31.1% (181/582) of the person-times less than 6 hours of homework submission duration. The completion rate of task points was 99.0% (3 919/3 960), and the number of students participating in discussions was 3 (2,7). In total, 86.9% to 90.9% of the students thought that the five aspects of learning effect were partly or basically achieved.Conclusion:Students' learning behavior is good on the whole, but their participation in discussion is few, and some of them learn passively, which needs to be further improved.

Objective:To investigate the clinical efficacy of induced membrane technique in the staged treatment of adult chronic hematogenous osteomyelitis (CHOM) of long bone.Methods:The clinical data were retrospectively analyzed of the 22 adult patients with CHOM of long bone who had been admitted to the 920th Hospital, Joint Logistics Support Force of PLA from January 2016 to December 2019. There were 18 males and 4 females, aged from 16 to 56 years (average, 31.81 years). Their disease duration ranged from 0.6 to 42.0 years, averaging 18.4 years. By the Cierny-Mader anatomical classification, 4 cases were type Ⅰ, 6 cases Type Ⅲ, and 12 cases type Ⅳ. In the first stage, the bone defects were filled with antibiotic bone cement after thorough debridement. In the second stage when the infection had been controlled, the bone defects were repaired with bone grafts after removal of the bone cement. Bone healing time and complications were followed up. The treatment effects were evaluated by comparisons of the infection control indexes [including clinical manifestations like local redness, swelling, pus, and pain, and blood white blood cell count, C-Reactive protein (CRP), and erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) as well] before the primary surgery, before the secondary surgery and at the last follow-up.Results:The volumes of the bone defects after stage-one debridement ranged from 54 cm 3 to 176 cm 3 (mean, 90.9 cm 3). All patients were followed up for 20 to 51 months (mean, 30.1 months) after surgery. All bone defects healed after 4 to 11 months (mean, 6.6 months). Postoperatively, infection developed at the bone extraction site of the posterior superior iliac spine in 3 cases and pain was observed at the donor site in one case, but the conditions were relieved after symptomatic treatment. Fracture and plate breakage occurred at the bone defect site in one case who had fallen down 7 months after operation, but responded to reoperation. The last follow-up revealed such symptoms as redness, swelling and pus discharge in none of the patients. The white blood cell count [(5.70 ± 1.57) × 10 9/L and (5.65 ± 1.58) × 10 9/L], CRP [(7.56 ± 2.57) mg/L and (7.25 ± 3.83) mg/L] and ESR [(9.64 ± 2.90) mm/h and (10.55 ± 5.23) mm/h] before the secondary surgery and at the last follow-up were significantly lower than those before the primary surgery [(8.24 ± 2.18) × 10 9/L, (49.54 ± 19.56) mg/L, and (42.68 ± 13.77) mm/h] (all P < 0.05). However, there were no significant differences between the indexes before the secondary surgery and at the last follow-up ( P > 0.05). Conclusion:In the staged treatment of adult CHOM of long bone, the induced membrane technique can effectively control infection, achieve repair of bone defects, and reduce complications.

Objective:To understand the development of extracurricular activities among students majoring in preventive medicine in a medical college and explore the impact of perception of extracurricular activities on major courses and extracurricular performances.Methods:A self-made questionnaire on the extracurricular perception was conducted, involving such aspects as organizational support, teacher guidance, student participation, etc. In August 2019, all senior students from Department of Preventive Medicine of a medical college were investigated by the questionnaire. At the same time, we had the extracurricular performances of the students from the Communist Youth League Committee and the major courses performances from the Academic Affairs Section of the Department. The Pearson test was conducted on the dimensions and total score of extracurricular perception, extracurricular performance and major courses performance to verify the impact of extracurricular perception on major courses and extracurricular performances. SPSS 19.0 was used for normality test, chi-square test and correlation analysis.Results:A total of 95 valid questionnaires were distributed and collected. It was noted that the total score of students' extracurricular perception was higher (66.23 points), among which, the highest score of teacher guidance was 73.10, while the lowest score of students' participation was 61.85. Extracurricular perception had a significant impact on major courses and extracurricular activities, especially in organizational support and teacher's guidance.Conclusion:Teachers play an important role in extracurricular activities, and students' participation is influenced by students and school factors. It is suggested that the school should pay attention to extracurricular activities in the process of cultivating college students, education environment should be optimized, funds should be guaranteed, the extracurricular courses should be improved, and the management system should be improved. For the teachers, teachers' professional level should be improved. Teachers should provide helpful guidance for students. At the same time, teachers should learn to use new technologies to build a better environment for students' learning. In addition, teachers should provide students with opportunities to be involved in extracurricular activities and create platforms. Finally, students should actively participate in all kinds of activities both inside and outside the school.

Objective To investigate the clinical efficacy and prognostic factors of autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (ASCT) for Hodgkin's lymphoma (HL). Methods We retrospectively analyzed the data of 38 patients with HL who underwent ASCT. Kaplan-Meier and Cox methods were used to analyze the curative effect and prognostic factors after transplantation. Results All 38 transplanted patients obtained hematopoietic reconstitution. The CR rates before and after transplantation were 55.3% and 81.6%, respectively, and the 5-year PFS and OS were 76.1% and 79.0%, respectively. Univariate analysis showed that B symptoms, IPS score, pre-transplant remission status, extranodal invasion, and pretreatment regimen were the factors affecting the prognosis of ASCT in patients with HL. Multivariate analysis showed that B symptom was an independent risk factor affecting 5-year PFS. Conclusion ASCT is effective in the treatment of high-risk, relapsed, and refractory patients with HL. B symptom is an independent risk factor affecting the prognosis of transplantation.

Objective:To investigate the clinical effect of induced membrane technique combined with staged internal fixation for treatment of infected femoral nonunion.Methods:A retrospective case series study was conducted to analyze the clinical data of 21 patients with infected femoral nonunion treated from January 2016 to December 2018 in 920th Hospital of Joint Logistics Support Force of PLA. There were 13 males and 8 females, with the age of 18-57 years [(38.9±6.7)years]. The duration of nonunion was 7-78 months [(27.1±11.4)months]. All patients were treated by induced membrane technique in two stages. At stage I, the original internal fixation was removed and debrided thoroughly, then the antibiotic-loaded bone cement and locking compression plate (LCP) were placed. The length of bone defect following debridement was 5-15 cm[(7.4±1.9)cm]. At stage II, the bone defect was reconstructed with bone grafts and fixed with the intramedullary nail and/or LCP. The wound condition, white blood cell count, C-reactive protein (CRP) and erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) were recorded after stage I surgery and at the last follow-up to measure infection control. The complications and bone healing time were recorded. The bone healing was evaluated by the Paley criteria and the functional recovery of the affected limb was evaluated by the range of motion of the knee at the last follow-up.Results:All patients were followed up for 23-43 months [(31.9±6.7)months]. The infection recurred in 4 patients after stage I surgery, and the wound healed after repeated debridement. There was no infection recurrence after stage II surgery. The white blood cell count, CRP and ESR were (6.1±1.8)×10 9/L, (10.1±3.1)mg/L, (10.2±3.4)mm/h at the last follow-up, significantly decreased from preoperative (15.0±4.8)×10 9/L, (69.8±14.8)mg/L, (66.2±13.2)mm/h ( P<0.05). The incidence of complications was 43%. Besides infection recurrence in 4 patients after stage I surgery, the donor site at the posterior superior iliac spine in 3 patients showed delayed healing, and the limb shortening occurred in 2 patients with the discrepancy of 3 cm and 4 cm. Bony union was observed in all patients within 6-16 months [(8.8±2.7)months]. The results were excellent in 19 patients and good in 2 patients according to the Paley criteria at the last follow-up. The knee range of motion was significantly improved from preoperative 30.0°(15.0°, 110.0°) to 90.0°(61.5°, 120.0°) at the last follow-up ( P<0.05). Conclusion:For infected femoral nonunion, the induced membrane technique combined with staged internal fixation can effectively control infection, achieve bony union, and promote functional recovery.
