Objective:To investigate the methods and skills required for the safe and swift removal of primary or secondary sacral tumors located between the second (inclusive) and fourth sacral vertebrae.Methods:The clinical images, pathology reports, surgical procedures, operation durations, intraoperative bleeding volumes, and postoperative functional follow-up data of 26 patients undergoing sacral tumor resection at the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University and Xinjiang Production and Construction Corps Hospital between May 2020 and February 2025 were retrospectively examined. Additionally, the safety measures for sacral tumor resection and techniques for expedited specimen removal were evaluated.Results:According to magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) findings, all 26 patients presented with sacral tumors located between the second (inclusive) and fourth sacral vertebrae. Specifically, 9 patients were diagnosed with primary sacral tumors, pathologically confirmed as chordomas, while 17 patients had secondary sacral tumors. Among the secondary tumor cases, 12 were attributed to recurrent rectal cancer invading the sacrum, and 5 were due to malignant teratomas invading the sacrum. The 26 patients underwent a treatment strategy that began with managing the relationship between the internal iliac artery, vein branches, and the tumor, followed by the resection of the sacrum. During surgery, the bilateral sciatic foramina were accurately positioned, and the presacral fascia was dissected subsequent to the fracture of the sacrum. Among the 26 patients, 9 underwent sacral tumor resection directly through the posterior sacral approach. The average operation time for these patients was (71.1±4.9) minutes, with average blood loss of (186.7±72.8) milliliters. On the other hand, 17 patients underwent sacral tumor resection by transitioning from the supine position to the prone knife position through a combined abdominal and sacral approach. The average operation time for this group was (213.5±19.3) minutes, with average blood loss of (480.0±93.0) milliliters, significantly longer than that of the posterior sacral approach. The follow-up period ranged from 1 to 48 months, with a median of 20 months, ending on March 31, 2025. During this time, 26 patients achieved autonomous defecation with the aid of medication. None of the patients reported any functional movement disorders or pain in their lower limbs. It was observed that two out of the 26 patients developed distant metastasis, while the remaining 24 patients survived without any tumors.Conclusion:By pretreated the relationship between the internal iliac vessels and sacral tumors prior to resecting sacral tumors, utilizing the approach of initially fracturing the sacrum followed by rupturing the presacral fascia, the tumor can be entirely eliminated, resulting in a brief surgical procedure, reduced intraoperative bleeding, and minimal postoperative complications.

Objective:To investigate the immuno-inflammatory regulatory effects of the Qing Gan San Jie Xiao Ying Formula(QGSJXYF)on Hashimoto's thyroiditis(HT)by modulating thyroid cell-derived exosomes to provide experi-mental evidence for its immunomodulatory mechanisms.Methods:Nthy-ori-3-1 thyroid cells were treated with QGSJXYF-medicated serum,with untreated cells serving as controls.Exosomes from both groups were extracted and analyzed using nanoparticle tracking analysis(NTA),transmission electron microscopy(TEM),and Western blot to assess concentration,size distribution,morphology,and the expression of characteristic exosomal markers.An inflammatory model of human T lymphocytes(H9)was established and co-incubated with normal exosomes(EXO-C group)or QGSJXYF-treated exosomes(EXO-T group).The levels of inflammatory cytokines in H9 cells were measured using Western blot(WB)and ELISA.Results:Exosome characterization showed that the particle concentration of Nthy-ori-3-1 cell-derived exosomes in both the control and QGSJXYF groups ranged from 1×109 to 1×1011/mL,with particle diameters between 80～300 nm.The exosomes exhibited a typical spherical or cup-shaped morphology with positive expression of TSG101,CD63,and HSP70.Compared with the inflammation model group and the EXO-C group,the EXO-T group significantly reduced the intracellular expression of IL-17A protein in H9 cells(P<0.05)and suppressed IL-17 and IL-6 levels in the cell supernatant(P<0.01).Conclusion:QGSJXYF may exert its anti-inflammatory and thyroid-protective effects by modulating the functional state of thyroid cell-derived exosomes,regulating the inflamma-tory microenvironment,and inhibiting the expression of inflammatory cytokines associated with Hashimoto's thyroiditis.

Thyroid diseases are common surgical system disorders worldwide,with a continuously rising incidence in recent years,seriously affecting patients'health and quality of life.While modern medicine has made significant ad-vances in the diagnosis and treatment of thyroid diseases,it still faces challenges such as postoperative recurrence,lifelong medication,and the persistence of physical and psychological symptoms.These issues highlight the limitations of current treatment models in terms of systemic regulation.Based on the holistic view of traditional Chinese medicine and integrated with modern medical research findings,we propose the theory of"Ye-Ben correspondence".This theory posits that the thyroid(Ye)and the internal environment of the human body(Ben)are mutually influential and reflective of one another.It emphasizes the dynamic and bidirectional interaction between the thyroid and the body's internal environment,advocating for a treatment approach that addresses both Ye and Ben.This provides a theoretical foundation for integrated diagnosis and treatment of thyroid diseases through the collaboration of Chinese and West-ern medicine.

Aim To investigate the effect of exosomes derived from bone marrod-derived mesenchymal stem cells(BMSCs)on dexamethasone-induced C2C12 muscular canal atrophy.Methods(1)C57BL/6J mouse bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells were isola-ted and cultured by whole bone marrow adhesion meth-od.(2)Extraction and identification of BMSCs EXOs were performed.(3)Myogenic differentiation of C2C12 cells was carried out.(4)The successfully differentia-ted myotubes were divided into the control group(cul-tured in 2％equine serum medium for 48 h),dexam-ethasone group(dexamethasone,DEX,10 μmol·L-1 concentration of DEX interfered with myotubes for 48 h),and exosomes group(exosomes,EXOs,interfered with myotubes for 48 h),exosome inhibitor group(exo-somes extracted from BMSCs after 10 μm GW4869 in-tervention,interfered with myotubes for 48 h).48 h later,the morphology and diameter of muscle tubes were observed and measured by microscope.Cell via-bility of each group was detected by CCK-8 method.The expression levels of atrogin-1 and MuRF-1,myo-genic differentiation antigen(MYOD)in each group were detected by Western blot.Results BMSCs were long spusiform,and BMSCS-EXOS showed a circular bilayer structure under transmission electron microsco-py,with a diameter of about 200 nm.CD9,CD63 and CD81 were highly expressed.Compared with the con-trol group,cell activity in DEX group decreased(P＜0.01),diameter of myotubes decreased(P＜0.01),expressions of atrogin-1(P＜0.05)and MuRF-1(P＜0.01)were significantly up-regulated,and expression of MYOD(P＜0.01)was significantly down-regula-ted.Compared with the DEX group,cell activity in the BMSCs-EXOs group increased(P＜0.01),diameter of myotubes increased(P＜0.01),expressions of atrogin-1(P＜0.05)and MuRF-1(P＜0.01)were signifi-cantly down-regulated,and expression of MYOD(P＜0.01)was up-regulated.Compared with the BMSCs-EXOs group,cell activity of the BMSCs-EXOs(GW4869)group decreased(P＜0.05),diameter of myotubes decreased(P＜0.01),expressions of atrog-in-1(P＜0.05)and MuRF-1(P＜0.05)were up-regulated,and expression of MYOD(P＜0.01)was down-regulated.Conclusion Bone marrow mesen-chymal stem cell-derived exosomes(BM-MSCs-EXOs)inhibit dexamethasone-induced C2C12 muscle tube at-rophy.

Objective:To explore the relationship between monocyte-lymphocyte ratio(MLR),modified Glasgow prognostic score(mGPS)and the prognosis of patients with advanced gastric cancer after radical gastrectomy.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on the data of 106 patients with advanced gastric cancer who underwent radical gastrectomy in our hospital from April 2018 to April 2021,the patients were followed up for 3 years after the operation.MLR and mGPS scores of patients with different clinical characteristics were compared.The Kaplan-Meier method was used to analyze the survival differences of patients in different MLR and mGPS groups,and the survival curves were plotted.The Cox regression model was used to analyze variables such as clinical characteristics,laboratory indicators,MLR and mGPS scores,and to screen out the independent factors affecting the prognosis of patients.The receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve was constructed to evaluate the efficacy of MLR,mGPS scores and their combination in predicting poor prognosis efficiency of patients,and the area under the curve(AUC),sensitivity and specificity were calculated.Results:MLR and mGPS scores were correlated with tumor TNM stage,degree of differentiation,tumor diameter,lymph node metastasis and postoperative chemotherapy(P＜0.05).The 3-year survival rates of the MLR ≥0.3 group and mGPS ≥ 1 group were 45.20％and 50.00％respectively,which were much lower than those in the low MLR group and mGPS group(78.40％and 82.40％,P＜0.05).The survival rate in the high-risk group(MLR ≥0.3 and mGPS ≥ 1)was 29.41％,significantly lower than those in the medium and low-risk groups(P＜0.05).Cox multivariate analysis showed that high clinical stage,lymph node metastasis,high degree of differentiation,high MLR and high mGPS scores were independent risk factors affecting the prognosis of patients.ROC curve showed that the AUC of MLR and mGPS scores alone in predicting poor prognosis of patients was 0.756 and 0.842,respectively,the AUC of combination detection the two was 0.909,the predictive efficacy of the combination detection was significantly better than that of the single detection.Conclusion:Elevated MLR and mGPS scores can be used as independent prognostic indicators after advanced gastric cancer,the combination in predicting is helpful to provide a more accurate basis for clinical prognosis assessment.
