Renal injury is one of the common ad-verse reactions in the clinical application of chemo-therapy drugs,which is the main reason why the chemotherapy can not be carried out in the whole cycle.The pathological mechanism of chemothera-py-induced renal injury is very complicated,mainly involving oxidative stress,inflammatory response,apoptosis,mitochondrial dysfunction,and regula-tion of transporters,causing pathological damage to renal tubules or glomeruli.At present,there is no specific pharmacological intervention for the treatment of chemotherapy-induced renal injury.As a treasure of traditional Chinese medicine,tradi-tional Chinese medicine has the advantages of overall regulation,multi-targeting,small adverse re-actions and no obvious drug dependence in the prevention and treatment of chemotherapy-in-duced renal injury.In recent years,there have been more and more studies on the intervention of che-motherapy-induced renal injury by multi-compo-nent and multi-directional intervention of active components,extracts and compounds of tradition-al Chinese medicine,and some progress has been made.A large number of studies have shown that the potential mechanisms of traditional Chinese medicine in preventing and treating renal injury in-duced by chemotherapy include inhibiting oxida-tive stress,reducing inflammatory response and in-hibiting apoptosis.Although there are many stud-ies on the mechanism of action of traditional Chi-nese medicine in the treatment of chemotherapy-induced renal injury,there is still a lack of systemat-ic review.Based on this,this paper summarizes the mechanism of renal injury induced by chemothera-py and the intervention of traditional Chinese medi-cine,so as to provide theoretical support for its clinical treatment and new drug innovation.

Objective:To assess the efficacy of neoadjuvant treatment with PD-1 (programmed cell death protein 1) inhibitors combined with paclitaxel (albumin-conjugated) and cisplatin (TP regimen) for locally advanced hypopharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma and laryngeal organ function preservation.Methods:Data of 53 patients, including 51 males and 2 females, aged 38-70 years old, who were diagnosed with locally advanced hypopharyngeal squamous carcinoma confirmed by histology and enhanced CT at the Cancer Prevention and Control Center of Sun Yat-sen University during the initial treatment from January 1, 2019 to January 15, 2023, were retrospectively analyzed. All patients received neoadjuvant therapy with PD-1 inhibitors combined with albumin-bound paclitaxel (260 mg/m 2) and cisplatin (60 mg/m 2) for 3 to 4 cycles. The main outcome measures were larynx dysfunction-free survival (LDFS), overall survival (OS), and progression-free survival (PFS). Survival curves were plotted using the Kaplan-Meier method, and Cox multifactorial analysis was further performed if Cox univariate analysis was statistically significant. Results:The overall efficiency was 90.6% (48/53). The 1-year and 2-year LDFS rates were 83.8% (95% CI: 74.0% to 94.8%) and 50.3% (95% CI: 22.1% to 91.6%), the 1-year and 2-year OS rates were 95.2% (95% CI: 88.9% to 100.0%) and 58.2% (95% CI: 25.6% to 81.8%), and the 1-year and 2-year PFS rates were 83.9% (95% CI: 74.2% to 94.9%) and 53.5% (95% CI: 32.1% to 89.1%). Adverse events associated with the neoadjuvant therapy were mainly myelosuppression (45.3%), gastrointestinal reactions (37.7%) and hypothyroidism (20.8%). Conclusion:The neoadjuvant treatment of locally advanced hypopharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma using PD-1 inhibitors combined with paclitaxel and cisplatin can provide with a higher survival rate with a improved laryngeal organ function preservation rate.

BACKGROUND:In recent years,computer-assisted navigation has gradually attracted attention in the medical field.Some scholars have reported that the clinical effects of computer navigation in total knee arthroplasty vary.To explore the clinical effect of the new generation of Brainlab Knee 3 navigation system,this study is conducted. OBJECTIVE:To analyze the application effect of computer navigation system(Brainlab Knee 3)combined with gap balance technology in total knee arthroplasty. METHODS:A total of 71 patients received total knee arthroplasty at the Department of Joint Surgery of Dalian Second People's Hospital from November 2020 to May 2021.In the navigation group,35 patients underwent total knee arthroplasty by computer navigation combined with gap balance.In the traditional group,36 patients underwent osteotomy with traditional surgical instruments.The difference between medial and lateral joint spaces,knee range of motion,hospital for special surgery knee score,hip-knee-ankle angle,deviation values of coronal femoral component angle,coronal tibial component angle,and sagittal tibial component angle were compared between the two groups. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)In the navigation group,the differences of intraoperative medial and lateral joint gap at knee extension 0,1,and 2 mm were found in 19,14,and 2 cases,respectively.The gap difference was 0 mm in 18 cases,1 mm in 15 cases and 2 mm in 2 cases at 90° degree knee flexion.In the traditional group,the gap difference at knee extention was 0 mm in 10 cases,1 mm in 20 cases,and 2 mm in 6 cases.The gap difference at 90 degree knee flexion was 0 mm in 10 cases,1 mm in 15 cases and 2 mm in 8 cases.(2)The operation time in the navigation group was longer than that in the traditional group(P<0.05),and two patients in the navigation group developed lower limb intermuscular vein thrombosis after surgery,and none of the patients in the traditional group had complications.(3)The range of motion between the two groups increased significantly at 6 and 12 months after surgery,and the range of motion in the navigation group was higher than that in the traditional group(P<0.05).(4)At 12 months after surgery,the hospital for special surgery knee scores of both groups increased significantly,and the hospital for special surgery knee score in the navigation group was higher than that in the traditional group(P<0.05).(5)At 6 months after surgery,the deviation values of hip-knee-ankle angle,coronal femoral component angle,coronal tibial component angle,and sagittal tibial component angle of navigation group were significantly lower than those in the traditional group(P<0.05).(6)The results showed that computer navigation technique combined with gap balance in total knee arthroplasty had advantages in postoperative range of motion,lower limb alignment and the accuracy of tibial prosthesis component position,and joint function recovered well.

Objective To study the effect of storage duration on compressive mechanical properties of rabbit patellar, so as to provide references for in vitro ligament storage.Methods The compressive mechanical properties of rabbit patellar ligament storaged at -20 ℃ at different storage durations (in 36 d) were tested with the universal tensile test machine. The microscopic morphology of collagen fibers was observed under the scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The enthalpy and denaturation temperature of collagen fibers were measured with differential scanning calorimetry (DSC).Results With the increase of storage duration, the compressive stress of the patellar ligament at 40% strain increased from 19 kPa to 112 kPa and then decreased to 57 kPa. SEM observation showed that the cross-linking of collagen fibers was initially strengthened and then weakened. DSC results showed that the enthalpy increased from 59.47 J/g to 67.10 J/g and then decreased to 54.43 J/g. The denaturation temperature increased from 67.62 ℃ to 77.28 ℃ and then decreased to 64.10 ℃.Conclusions When rabbit patellar ligament is stored at -20 ℃, with the increase of storage duration, the compressive stress of rabbit patellar ligament at 40% strain increases at first and then decreases. This change may be due to the variation of cross-linking level of collagen fibers. The stronger the cross-linking of collagen fibers, the stronger the compressive mechanical properties will be.

Objective:To explore the effect of narrative medicine course on the empathy ability and comprehensive ability training of residents in the standardized residency training in municipal hospitals.Methods:A narrative medicine group was set up in a municipal hospital, and a anarrative medical course of 2 months of narrative theory teaching and 4 months of clinical practice education was carried out among 42 residents. The Chinese version of the Interpersonal Response Index Scale (IRI-C) was used to measure the empathy ability at 4 time points (before intervention, 2 months after theory education, 2 months after practice, and 4 months after practice). The effect of narrative medicine courses was evaluated through the satisfaction questionnaire survey, parallel medical record writing and the first-time pass rate of Medical Practitioner Qualification Examination. SPSS 25.0 was used to analyze the variance of one-way repeated measurement.Results:The empathy ability of 42 residents was significantly improved. The empathy score after 2 months after practice was higher than that before intervention and after the theoretical course ( P < 0.05), while the empathy score after 4 months of practice was higher than that before intervention and after the theoretical course ( P < 0.05). The most popular theoretical teaching forms among residents were interactive theoretical teaching (64.29%, 27/42), video viewing (59.52%, 25/42), and situational simulation (52.38%, 22/42). The comprehensive abilities of parallel medical record writing and podium performance among residents were improved. Passing the Medical Practitioner Qualification Examination is a necessary condition for passing the residency training program. The first-time pass rate of the Qualification Examination for the residents was 72.00% (18/25), which was higher than that of the residents who were not recruited during the same period (64.71%, 11/17). Conclusion:Carrying out narrative medicine education is helpful to improve the empathy ability and comprehensive ability of training residents in municipal hospitals.

Objective:To compare the effects of different intraocular infusion solutions on histology and function of retina.Methods:Human corneal endothelial cells (HCEC), human retinal pigment epithelium (HRPE) cells and rat retinal ganglion cells (RGC) were divided into normal control group, balanced saline solution (BSS) group and compound electrolyte intraocular irrigating solution (CEIIS) group, and the cells were cultured in 10% DMEM/F12 medium, BSS and CEIIS for 12, 24 and 48 hours, respectively, according to grouping.The proliferation absorbance value of cultured cells was measured by cell counting kit-8 (CCK8) method.The expression of apoptosis related proteins in cultured cells was detected by cellular immunofluorescence staining.The cell apoptosis rate and cell cycle were measured by flow cytometry.The mitochondrial damage was detected by lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) and succinate dehydrogenase (SDH) quantitative detection kit.Fifteen New Zealand white rabbits were randomly divided into control group ( n=3), BSS group ( n=6) and CEIIS group ( n=6). The left eyes were taken for vitrectomy and different intraocular perfusion fluids were used during vitrectomy according to grouping.The retinal function of operative eyes was measured by flash electroretinogram (ERG) before operation and 24 hours after operation, and the structural changes of each layer of retina were detected by optical coherence tomography (OCT). The early apoptosis of retinal cells was detected by TUNEL staining.The expressions of cytochrome C and bax protein in retina were detected by immunohistochemical staining.The ultrastructural changes of retina were observed under a transmission electron microscope.The use and care of animals complied with the ARVO statement.This study protocol was approved by an Ethics Committee of Peking University People's Hospital (No.2019PHE059). Results:The three kinds of cultured cells in BSS and CEIIS groups were damaged in various degrees.With the extension of culture time, proliferated cells were decreased and the number of apoptotic cells was increased.Compared with the BSS group, cultured cells in the CEIIS group were dense and in orderly arrangement with uniform morphology and size.The apoptosis rates of HRPE cells and RGC in the BSS group were (37.157±6.918)% and (29.993±12.330)%, respectively, which were significantly higher than (4.163±1.310)% and (6.337±1.903)% in the CEIIS group ( P=0.003, 0.045). There was no significant difference in G0/G1+ S phase ratio of HCEC and HRPE cells among the normal control group, BSS group and CEIIS group (HCEC: F=2.226, P=0.189; HRPE: F=2.634, P=0.151), and the proportion of G2/M division arrest phase of RGC in the BSS group was significantly higher than that in the normal control group and CEIIS group ( P=0.047, 0.024). The proliferation absorbance values of HCEC, HRPE cells and RGC in the CEIIS group were significantly higher than those in the BSS group at each culture time point (all at P<0.05). The fluorescence intensity of cytochrome C, bax, caspase-3 and caspase-9 proteins in the BSS group was stronger than that in the normal control group and CEIIS group, and the fluorescence intensity of bcl-2 was weaker than that in the CEIIS group, and the fluorescence intensity of zonula occluden-1 (ZO-1) was weaker than that in the normal control group and CEIIS group.The release level of LDH in the BSS group was significantly higher than that in the CEIIS group at different time points (all at P<0.001). After 48 hours of culture, the release level of SDH in the BSS group was significantly higher than that in the CEIIS group ( P<0.05). No retinal histological abnormalities was found through OCT examination of rabbit eyes after vitrectomy in the two groups, but transmission electron microscopy showed that there were different degrees of loose arrangement of retinal photoreceptor cells, a large number of photoreceptor outer membrane discs falling off and vacuolar degeneration in the two groups, especially in the BSS group.TUNEL staining showed that the apoptotic cells were mainly located in the inner nuclear layer and RGC layer.The number of apoptotic retinal cells was (135.2±22.8)/high-power field of vision in the BSS group, which was significantly higher than (81.3±17.7)/high-power field of vision in the CEIIS group ( t=4.175, P=0.002). Full field flash ERG showed that the amplitudes of scotopic 3.0 ERG a- and b-wave in the CEIIS group after operation were significantly lower than those before operation, but the differences were not statistically significant (all at P>0.05). The amplitudes of scotopic 3.0 ERG a- and b-wave in the BSS group after operation were significantly lower than those before operation ( P=0.026, 0.010). Conclusions:In vivo and in vitro research results show that compared with BSS, there were few apoptotic cells in retinal tissue after vitrectomy perfused by CEIIS.

Objective:To investigate whether knee osteoarthritis has an impact on the patient′s depression and whether it′s progression will affect the patient′s depression, and to provide a reference for clinical work.Methods:Patients diagnosed with osteoarthritis in Dalian Central Hospital from 2016 to 2019 were divided into 4 groups according to Kellgren-Lawrence staging, and the patients were scored on WOMAC scale, AKSS clinical scale, and AKSS. The score of the scale and the score of the HAMD scale were collected and statistically analyzed using SPSS 17.0.Results:χ2 test was used to show that there was no difference in the gender composition of patients in different stages ( P<0.05). The AKSS clinical scale score, AKSS functional scale score, WOMAC scale score and HAMD scale score were statistically analyzed for each stage. The results showed that the average AKSS clinical scores of patients in each stage were as follows: stage Ⅰ: (90.01 ± 8.41) points; stage Ⅱ: (79.98 ± 10.93) points; stage Ⅲ: (71.78 ± 13.64) points; stage Ⅳ: (54.18 ± 12.58) points. The AKSS functional scores were as follows, stage Ⅰ: 100 points; stage Ⅱ: 80 points; stage Ⅲ: 70 points; stage Ⅳ: 45 points; the average WOMAC scale scores of patients in each stage were as follows, stage Ⅰ: (28.69 ± 19.22) points ; stage Ⅱ: (49.43 ± 22.69) points; stage Ⅲ (70.13 ± 24.84) points; stage Ⅳ: (107.79 ± 24.39) points. The average HAMD scale scores of patients in each stage were as follows, stage Ⅰ: (4.89 ± 3.42) points; stage Ⅱ: (7.65 ± 4.20) points; Stage Ⅲ: (9.05 ± 5.03) points; stage Ⅳ: (12.35 ± 5.41) points. The analysis showed that there were significant statistical differences in the scale scores between each period ( P<0.05). There was a correlation between the patient′s depression status and the patient′s age, pain, and joint function, and there were statistical differences ( P<0.05). Conclusions:There is a significant correlation between depression and pain and function in patients with knee osteoarthritis. The progress of the osteoarthritis course will aggravate the patient′s depression state. Conversely, the patient′s depression state can also aggravate the symptoms of osteoarthritis patients and affect the clinical efficacy of the patients.
