Objectives:To compare the intraoperative neurophysiological monitoring(IONM)results during 3-column osteotomy surgery in severe congenital scoliosis(CS)patients with or without intraspinal anomalies,and to explore the effect of intraspinal anomaly on the incidence of IONM alarm events and postoperative out-comes in CS patients.Methods:Clinical data of patients with severe CS who underwent 3-column osteotomy surgery in our hospital from September 2020 to May 2023 were retrospectively analyzed.The patients were divided into two groups according to whether combined with intraspinal anomalies.The basic information,the latency and amplitude of somatosensory evoked potentials(SSEPs)of both lower extremities,amplitude of tran-scranial electric motor evoked potentials(TCeMEPs),as well as the sensitivity and specificity of multimodal IONM were compared between the two groups.The incidence of IONM alarm events and postoperative out-comes were analyzed.Results:A total of 37 patients who met the criteria were included in the study,of which 14 patients combined with intraspinal anomalies,including 8 cases of syringomyelia,2 case of tethered cord,1 case of diastematomyelia,1 case of diastematomyelia combined with tethered cord,and 2 cases of sy-ringomyelia combined with tethered cord.The latency of SSEPs-P3 7 in the concave side lower extremity of CS patients with intraspinal anomalies was significantly longer than that of CS patients without intraspinal anomalies(40.9±3.3ms vs 38.0±3.7ms,P=0.03).In addition,the sensitivity and specificity of multimodal IONM were comparable between the two groups.There was no significant difference in the incidence of abnormal SSEPs,the incidence of IONM alarm events and the incidence of postoperative neurological symptoms between the two groups(P＞0.05).Conclusions:Multimodal IONM provides excellent monitoring effects in severe CS paitents undergoing 3-column osteotomy surgery.The latency of SSEPs-P37 in the concave side lower ex-tremity of CS patients with intraspinal anomalies was significantly longer than that of CS patients without in-traspinal anomalies.Intraspinal anomalies don't increase the incidence of intraoperative IONM alarm events or the incidence of postoperative neurological complications.

Objective:To evaluate immunotherapy combined with neoadjuvant chemotherapy before radical total gastrectomy in microsatellite stable locally advanced gastric cancer in two cases.Methods:Two male patients with clinical stage cT3N 1M0 and microsatellite-stable locally advanced gastric cancer were treated with neoadjuvant chemotherapy with PD-1 inhibitor (Nivolumab) combined with SOX (Oxaliplatin+S-1) for 4 cycles before surgery. Standard laparoscopic assisted total gastrectomy with D 2 lymphadenectomy was performed on Feb 2023 and Oct 2023 respectively after the neoadjuvant treatment. Pathological tumor regression grade(TRG) was observed to assess the degree of tumor regression, and follow-up was conducted to monitor tumor markers and abdominal enhanced CT to detect recurrence. Results:Two patients achieved pathological complete response(TRG0). They were followed up until May 2024 and no recurrence was observed.Conclusion:Preoperative combination of chemotherapy and immunotherapy may provide survival benefit for microsatellite stable locally advanced gastric cancer patients.

Radiopharmaceuticals play an important role in the diagnosis and treatment of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases， malignant tumors， central nervous system diseases， and other diseases. Under the urgent need for clinical diagnosis and treatment as well as medical development， the clinical research of radiopharmaceuticals has become a hotspot in international research. By analyzing the current situation of clinical research on radiopharmaceuticals in Europe， America， and China， the ethical issues of clinical research on radiopharmaceuticals were elaborated from four aspects， including lack of relevant laws and regulations， a higher risk of radiopharmaceuticals， dilemmas in ethical review， and insufficient radiation protection. Response principles and measures were proposed from four aspects， including improving regulations and policies， enhancing radiological protection for all parties involved in the research， strengthening ethical review， and reinforcing the training of relevant personnel， to enhance the quality and level of clinical research on radiopharmaceuticals.

Objective:Multi-facial reflective type of nano-ultrasound contrast agents（UCAs）loaded with hollow self-decomposable silica nanoparticles（SiO 2 NP）of different particle sizes were prepared to investigate the effect of the particle size of SiO 2 NP on the structural and physicochemical characteristics of the nano-UCAs，as well as on the intensity of ultrasound contrast. Methods:Two types of SiO 2 NP with large and small particle sizes（SiO 2 NP L and SiO 2 NP S）were prepared by adjusting the material ratios，and nano-UCAs with different particle sizes of SiO 2 NP S loaded at a concentration of 2 mg/ml were prepared by the thin film hydration method（SiO 2 NP L@NBs and SiO 2 NP S@NBs），and compared with the commercial SonoVue and the prepared nano-bubbles（NBs）for comparing the particle size，zeta potential and stability，scanning electron microscopy to observe the structure，CCK8 method to assess cytotoxicity，and comparison of ultrasonography imaging intensity in in vivo and in vitro experiments. Results:The particle sizes of the two SiO 2 NP（SiO 2 NP L and SiO 2 NP S）were（213.270 ± 16.890）nm and（53.870 ± 8.246）nm，respectively，and the particle size of the synthesized nano-UCA was SiO 2 NP L@NBs（628.40 ± 89.97）nm and SiO 2 NP S@NBs（493.40 ± 36.35）nm respectively，there was no difference in particle size（ P>0.05）. The scanning electron microscope showed a "fig" structure. The stability of SiO 2 NP S@NBs was better than that of SiO 2 NP L@NBs and SonoVue. Safety tests showed that both SiO 2 NP L@NBs and SiO 2 NP S@NBs were safe and usable. Compared with NBs，the intensity of contrast-enhanced ultrasound contrast in SiO 2 NP@NBs with multiple reflection interfaces was significantly enhanced，and the enhanced intensity of contrast-enhanced ultrasound in vitro and in vivo in the SiO 2 NP L@NBs group was significantly higher than that of the NBs group，the SiO 2 NP S@NBs group，and the SonoVue group（all P<0.05）. There was no significant difference in the enhanced intensity of in vitro contrast-enhanced ultrasound between the SiO 2 NP S@NBs group and that of SonoVue（ P>0.05），and the enhanced intensity of contrast-enhanced ultrasound in vivo was significantly higher than that in the SonoVue group（ P<0.05）. Conclusions:The large and small SiO 2 NPs prepared by adjusting the material ratio do not affect the nanoparticle size of UCA.The ultrasonic enhancement ability of nano-UCA with large particle size SiO 2 NP is stronger，but the stability time at room temperature is shorter than that of nano-UCA with small particle size SiO 2 NP.

Objective:To investigate the effects of compound Duzhong Jiangu Granules on joint function and gut microbiota in patients with Kashin-Beck disease.Methods:A single group pre- and post-experimental design was conducted, the patients with Kashin-Beck disease were selected as the subjects in Xunyi County, Xianyang City, Shaanxi Province; and treated with oral administration of compound Duzhong Jiangu Granules (12 g/bag, 1 bag/time, 3 times/day) for a period of 1 month. The improvement of joint function was evaluated using the joint dysfunction index scoring method before and after treatment. Morning stool samples of patients were collected and the changes in gut microbiota were analyzed before and after treatment using 16S rDNA sequencing technology.Results:A total of 87 patients with Kashin-Beck disease were included, including 44 males and 43 females; the age was (60.38 ± 7.12) years old, and the body mass index was (23.67 ± 3.59) kg/m 2. The comprehensive scores of joint dysfunction index for patients with Kashin-Beck disease before and after treatment were (7.27 ± 2.05) and (5.86 ± 2.01) points, respectively, and the difference was statistically significant ( t = 5.88, P < 0.001). The sequencing results of gut microbiota showed that there were statistically significant differences in the alpha diversity (chao1, observed species index) and beta diversity of gut microbiota in patients with Kashin-Beck disease before and after treatment ( Z = - 5.08, - 5.03, R = 0.09, P < 0.001). In the distribution of gut microbiota, Firmicutes was the dominant phylum, with relative abundances of 50.21% and 52.09% before and after treatment, respectively; the Bifidobacterium was the dominant bacterial genus, with relative abundances of 16.83% and 18.81% before and after treatment, respectively. At the genus level, a total of 17 gut microbiota genera were screened out, among which the relative abundances of Hafnia-Obesumbacterium, Gammaproteobacteria_unclassified, Acinetobacter, Pantoea, Leuconostoc, and Akkermanisia were significantly higher than before treatment ( Z = - 2.40, - 2.24, - 2.06, - 3.59, - 2.24, - 2.11, P < 0.05). The relative abundances of Dubosiella, Selenomonas, Anaeroplasma, Lachnospiraceae_ NK4A136_group, Rikenella, Prevotella, Megasphaera, Lactobacillus, Prevotella-9, Phascolarctobacterium, and Desulfovibrio were significantly lower than before treatment ( Z = - 9.38, - 2.61, - 2.18, - 8.43, - 2.45, - 2.46, - 2.49, - 7.29, - 2.29, - 2.55, - 2.08, P < 0.05). Conclusions:Compound Duzhong Jiangu Granules can effectively improve the joint function of patients with Kashin-Beck disease, and alter the diversity and richness of the gut microbiota community. It may reduce clinical symptoms in patients by regulating the structure of gut microbiota.
