OBJECTIVE: To compare the impact of different peroneus longus tendon (PLT) stump management techniques on ankle function following arthroscopic anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction with autologous PLT grafts. METHODS: A retrospective analysis was conducted on 60 patients with ACL rupture who met the inclusion criteria between August 2020 and July 2024. All patients underwent arthroscopic ACL reconstruction using the autologous PLT grafts. Patients were assigned to group A [PLT stump sutured to peroneus brevis tendon (PBT), n=30] or group B (no stump intervention, n=30). The two groups showed no significant difference ( P>0.05) in baseline data, including gender, age, body mass index, injury mechanism, affected side, preoperative American Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Society (AOFAS) score, ankle muscle strength, ankle range of motion, and arch-related angles. Postoperative outcomes were assessed using the AOFAS score, ankle muscle strength (eversion and first-ray plantar flexion), arch-related angles (medial/lateral longitudinal and anterior/posterior arch), ankle range of motion (eversion, inversion, dorsiflexion, plantarflexion), and limb symmetry index (LSI). Change values in muscle strength, arch-related angles, and range of motion from preoperative to 12 months postoperatively were calculated for intergroup comparison. RESULTS: Groups A and B had comparable PLT graft lengths and diameters ( P>0.05). All patients were followed up 13-16 months (mean, 14.5 months). Postoperative complications included 1 case of incision infection, 1 case of deep vein thrombosis, and 1 case of knee stiffness in group A, 1 case of knee stiffness in group B. There was no significant difference in the overall complication incidences between groups ( P>0.05). No significant difference was found in the AOFAS scores between different time points and between groups ( P>0.05). At 12 months after operation, neither group showed significant changes from preoperative baseline in ankle strength, range of motion, or arch-related angles, and there was no significant difference in these change values between groups ( P>0.05). There was no significant difference in LSI between the two groups at 6 or 12 months postoperatively ( P>0.05). CONCLUSION Both suturing and leaving the PLT stump untreated during arthroscopic ACL reconstruction provided comparable ankle outcomes and well-preserved foot and ankle function.

Objective:To explore the hypothesis of "pathogen storage pool" by analyzing the local microbial community of adenoids. Methods:Under the guidance of a 70° nasal endoscope, sterile swabs were used to collect secretions from the adenoid crypts of the subjects. The samples were sent to the laboratory for DNA extraction and standard bacterial 16S full-length sequencing analysis. Results:At the species level, the top three microbial communities in adenoid crypts were Bacillus subtilis（18.78%）, Fusobacterium pyogenes（11.42%）, and Streptococcus pneumoniae（9.38%）. Conclusion:The local microbial community of adenoids exhibits a high degree of diversity, including microbial communities from the oral cavity and gastrointestinal tract. Our research results support the hypothesis that adenoids act as a " pathogen reservoir".

Objective To investigate the liver histopathological features of chronic hepatitis B(CHB)patients with normal alanine aminotransferase(ALT)and their correlation with serological markers.Methods Clinical data were collected from 137 patients with normal ALT who were treated in Wuxi Fifth People's Hospital from April 2018 to June 2021,and the differences in liver histopathology and serological markers were analyzed,as well as the correlation between liver histopathology and serological markers.The chi-square test was used for comparison of categorical data between groups,and the Kruskal-Wallis H test was used for comparison of data between multiple groups.A Spearman rank correlation test was performed,and logistic regression was used to perform the multivariate analysis.Results In the ALT≤20 U/L,20—29 U/L,and 30—40 U/L groups,the patients with significant inflammatory necrosis(≥G2)accounted for 57.4%,53.4%,and 75%,respectively,and the patients with significant fibrosis(≥S2)accounted for 63.8%,62.1%,and 75%,respectively.There was a significant difference in the degree of inflammatory necrosis between the patients with positive or negative HBeAg,the patients with different levels of serum HBV DNA,and the patients with different levels of serum HBV RNA(χ2=10.008,6.911,and 7.946,all P<0.05),and there was a significant difference in fibrosis stage between the patients with positive or negative HBeAg and the patients with different levels of serum HBV RNA(χ2=7.996 and 10.874,both P<0.05).The degree of liver inflammation and fibrosis stage were not significantly correlated with serum HBV DNA(rs=0.024,P=0.785;rs=0.039,P=0.652),while they were significantly correlated with serum HBV RNA(rs=0.222,P=0.009;rs=0.187,P=0.029).The multivariate analysis showed that in CHB patients,positive HBeAg was an independent risk factor for inflammatory necrosis(odds ratio[OR]=-0.302,95%confidence interval[CI]:-1.160 to 0.386,P=0.002)and fibrosis(OR=-0.387,95%CI:-1.160 to 0.386,P=0.011).Conclusion There are varying degrees of inflammatory necrosis and fibrosis in the liver of CHB patients with normal ALT,and positive HBeAg is independent risk factor for significant inflammatory necrosis and fibrosis in liver tissue of these patients.

[Objective] To evaluate the efficacy and safety of zero-pressure percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL) combined with hands-free pneumatic lithotripsy in the one-stage treatment of calculous pyonephrosis in the non-acute infection phase. [Methods] Clinical data of 15 patients' treated during Feb.2022 and Dec.2023 were retrospectively analyzed.Double-sheath negative pressure PCNL was adopted, with zero-pressure gravity perfusion where the perfusion height was at the level of the patients' kidney, not exceeding 20 cm above the kidney.Pneumatic lithotripsy was performed without the need to hold the device with hand. [Results] The median stone diameter was 28 (range 22—40) mm, with a median stone density of 1028 (range 765—1305) Hu.All operations were successful.The median operation time was 55 (range 35—90) min.Postoperative low fever (Clavien grade Ⅰ) occurred in 1 case, and high fever (Clavien grade Ⅱ) occurred in 1 case, with no complications of Clavien grade Ⅲ or above.The initial stone-free rate was 73.3%, and the stone-free rate after one month was 93.3%. [Conclusion] For patients with calculous pyonephrosis in the non-acute infection phase, one-stage treatment using zero-pressure PCNL combined with hands-free pneumatic lithotripsy demonstrates good efficacy and safety.

[Objective] To summarize the clinical manifestations, pathological characteristics, treatment options and prognosis of the world's first case of prostate ductal adenocarcinoma (PDA) complicated with prostate mucinous adenocarcinoma (PMA). [Methods] The clinical and follow-up data of a patient with PDA and PMA treated in Zhongnan Hospital of Wuhan University were retrospectively analyzed, and relevant literature in PubMed and CNKI databases was retrieved. [Results] The patient sought medical attention due to dysuria, frequent urination, urinary urgency and urinary pain for more than half a year, and was admitted to hospital 3 times in total.The initial diagnosis upon the first admission was benign prostatic hyperplasia complicated with prostatic abscess.After 2 months, the patient was readmitted due to worsening symptoms, received transurethral bladder neck incision+ cystoscopy+ transurethral plasma resection of the prostate, and postoperative diagnosis confirmed PDA with local PMA.Three months after surgery, the patient had bleeding.After auxiliary examinations revealed extensive metastasis, he received hormonal therapy.After 9 months, the patient died due to multiple lung metastases. [Conclusion] Early diagnosis has a significant impact on the treatment and prognosis, but there have been no previous reports of PDA combined with PMA, so the lack of specific biomarkers in the early stage has led to missed diagnosis or misdiagnoses.There is no specific treatment for PDA with PMA. Radical prostatectomy was not satisfactory in the treatment of this case.

Objective To explore the role of an artificial intelligence(AI)model based on real-time object detection network in fetal facial ultrasound examination.Methods With the normal fetal facial ultrasound standard plane(FFUSP)at 20-24 weeks of gestation as the research object,a FFUSP recognition model based on real-time object detection network was constructed.The recognition accuracy of the model for FFUSP and the anatomical structures were analyzed,and the clinical value was evaluated by analyzing its performance in identifying FFUSP in 119 cases of fetal ultrasound images.Results The overall precision,recall rate,mAP@.5 and mAP@.5:.95 of the AI model were 97.8%,98.5%,98.1%and 61.0%,respectively.The clinical validation showed that the AI model had a sensitivity,specificity,positive predictive value,negative predictive value and accuracy of 100.0%,98.5%,87.4%,100.0%and 98.7%for facial anatomy recognition,and the results were highly consistent with the classification of fetal ultrasound experts(k=0.925,P<0.001).The recognition accuracy of the model for 3 types of standard planes reached 100%;and the average speed of dynamic video detection was 33.93 frames per second.Conclusion The FFUSP recognition model based on real-time object detection network exhibits excellent performance,and it can be applied to real-time ultrasound diagnosis,teaching and intelligent quality evaluation.

Objective:To establish and validate the prediction model for bone marrow metastasis (BMM) in malignant tumors by screening out laboratory multiparameters.Methods:This case-control study collected 444 cases of malignant tumor patients who were hospitalized in the First Hospital of Jilin University from March 2018 to March 2024, including 243 cases for model establishment set and 201 cases for model validation set. The model establishment set was divided into BMM positive group (81 cases) and BMM negative group (162 cases), and the model validation set was divided into positive group (67 cases) and a negative group (134 cases). We collected patients′ clinical information such as gender, age, clinical diagnosis, and results of 47 laboratory tests including routine blood analysis, coagulation, liver function, tumor markers, potassium, sodium, chloride, and calcium ion tests, bone marrow morphology, and bone marrow biopsy. BMM was taken as the outcome event, differencial variables were analyzed using inter group comparisons, the correlation among parameters was analyzed using Pearson correlation analysis, the risk factors for BMM were analyzed using multivariate conditional logistic regression analysis, to establish logistic model, followed by efficiency evaluation on BMM predictive model using receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves.Results:In the model establishment set, Pearson correlation analysis of 28 parameters that differed between the BMM positive and negative groups revealed that the correlation coefficients of 17 parameters, including mean platelet volume (MPV), hematocrit (HCT), hemoglobin (HGB), and prothrombin time (PT), were no more than 0.6 ( P<0.05). Further multivariate conditional logistic regression analysis demonstrated that MPV, HGB, HCT, PT, red cell distribution width (RDW), platelet count (PLT), alkaline phosphatase (ALP), chloride (Cl -), and mean erythrocyte hemoglobin concentration (MCHC) were the risk factors of BMM occurence in malignancy [MPV ( OR=9.929, 95% CI 2.688-71.335), HCT ( OR=8.232, 95% CI 6.223-9.841), HGB ( OR=4.300, 95% CI 1.947-16.577), PT ( OR=3.738, 95% CI 1.359-11.666), RDW ( OR=1.995, 95% CI 1.275-3.807), ALP ( OR=1.025, 95% CI 1.012-1.045), PLT ( OR=1.014, 95% CI 1.002-1.031), MCHC ( OR=0.724, 95% CI 0.523-0.880) and Cl -( OR=0.703, 95% CI 0.472-0.967)]. In the model establishment set, combiation of risk factors provided an AUC of 0.943 (95% CI 0.898-0.987, P<0.001), a sensitivity of 86.3%, and a specificity of 89.2% for BMM prediction. In the model validation set, the AUC was 0.924 (95% CI 0.854-0.960, P<0.001), with a sensitivity and specificity of 86.7% and 83.8%, respectively. Conclusion:This study built and validated a multiple-parameter model for BMM, which may facilitate the timely detection of BMM and provide reference for decision making of bone marrow aspiration.

Objective:To evaluate the effect of patient-controlled intravenous analgesia (PCIA) with esketamine mixed with hydromorphone on the postoperative sleep quality in pediatric patients.Methods:This was a prospective randomised controlled study. One hundred pediatric patients of both sexes, aged 4-12 yr, with a body mass index of 13-26 kg/m 2, of American Society of Anesthesiologists Physical Status classification Ⅰ or Ⅱ, undergoing elective abdominal surgery with general anesthesia, who agreed to use postoperative patient-controlled intravenous analgesia in our hospital from January to November 2023, were divided into esktamine mixed with hydromorphone group (EH group) and hydromorphone group (H group), with 50 patients in each group. PCIA solution contained esketamine 1 mg/kg and hydromorphon 0.1 mg/kg in 100 ml of 0.9% sodium chloride in EH group and hydromorphone 0.2 mg/kg in 100 ml of 0.9% sodium chloride in H group. The Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index was used to evaluate the preoperative sleep quality by asking pediatric patients themselves or their guardians. On the morning of 1-3 days after surgery, the numeric rating scale (NRS) was used to evaluate the sleep quality of the first 3 nights after surgery. At 24 and 48 h after surgery, the FLACC pain scale was used to evaluate the intensity of pain. The consumption of hydromorphone within 48 h after surgery and the incidence of postoperative adverse reactions such as nausea, vomiting, itching and delirium were recorded. Results:Compared with group H, the NRS score was significantly increased on the 1st postoperative night, the ratio of poor sleep quality was decreased ( P<0.05), and no significant change was found in the NRS score on the 2nd or 3rd postoperative night and ratio of poor sleep quality ( P>0.05), and the FLACC pain scale score at 24 and 48 h after surgery and consumption of hydromorphone within 48 h after surgery were decreased in group EH ( P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the incidence of postoperative adverse reactions between the two groups ( P>0.05). Conclusions:PCIA with esketamine mixed with hydromorphone can improve the postoperative sleep quality in pediatric patients.
