OBJECTIVE To explore the association between the use of oral progesterone drugs in early pregnancy and gestational diabetes mellitus （GDM）. METHODS Through real-world retrospective cohort research method， pregnant women who underwent the oral glucose tolerance test （OGTT） at the Affiliated Maternal and Child Health Hospital of Nantong University between January 2022 and January 2023 were enrolled. Based on whether oral progesterone drugs were used in early pregnancy， they were divided into treatment group and control group； propensity score matching （PSM） with a 1∶1 ratio was employed to control for confounding factors； Logistic regression and linear regression were employed to analyze the association between drug factors （whether use of oral progesterone drug， duration of medication， dosage， and drug type） and outcome indicators （occurrence of GDM， fasting blood glucose levels， and OGTT 1 and 2 h blood glucose levels in late pregnancy）. RESULTS A total of 709 pregnant women were enrolled in the two groups before PSM； after PSM， 256 cases were included in both the treatment group and the control group. The results of association analysis indicated that there was no significant association between the use of oral progesterone drugs and GDM （P＞0.05）； but a significant correlation was found with OGTT 1 h blood glucose levels [β＝0.965， 95%CI （0.007，1.922）， P＜0.05]， specifically with Dydrogesterone tablets [β＝0.977， 95%CI （0.009， 1.944）， P＜0.05] and Progesterone soft capsules [β ＝1.089， 95%CI （0.077， 2.102）， P＜0.05]. There was no significant correlation between other drug factors and outcome indicators （P＞0.05）. CONCLUSIONS The use of oral progestogen drugs in early pregnancy is not significantly associated with GDM. The blood glucose levels in late pregnancy， especially OGTT 1 h blood glucose levels， have a certain correlation with Progesterone soft capsules and Dydrogesterone tablets.

Objective:To investigate the influence of curative-intent resection with textbook outcomes of liver surgery (TOLS) on long-term prognosis of gallbladder carcinoma (GBC).Methods:The retrospective cohort study was conducted. The clinicopathological data of 824 patients with GBC in the national multicenter database of Biliary Surgery Group of Elite Group of Chinese Journal of Digestive Surgery, who were admitted to 15 medical centers from January 2014 to January 2021, were collected. There were 285 males and 539 females, aged (62±11)years. According to the evalua-tion criteria of TOLS, patients were divided into those who achieved TOLS and those who did not achieve TOLS. Measurement data with normal distribution were represented as Mean± SD, and com-parison between groups was conducted using the independent sample t test. Measurement data with skewed distribution were represented as M( Q1, Q3), and comparison between groups was conducted using the Mann-Whitney U test. Count data were described as absolute numbers, and comparison between groups was conducted using the chi-square test. Comparison of ordinal data were conduc-ted using the Mann-Whitney U test. The Kaplan-Meier method was used to calculate survival rate and draw survival curve, and the Log-rank test was used for survival analysis. The COX stepwise regression model with backward Wald method was used for univariate and multivariate analyses. Results:(1) Achievement of TOLS. Of the 824 patients undergoing curative-intent resection for GBC, there were 510 cases achieving TOLS and 314 cases not achieving TOLS. (2) Follow-up. Of the 824 patients undergoing curative-intent resection for GBC, after excluding 112 deaths within 90 days after discharge, 712 cases were included for the survival analysis. The median follow-up time, median overall survival time and 5-year overall survival rate of the 510 patients achieving TOLS were 22.1(11.4,30.1)months, 47.6(30.6,64.6)months and 47.5%. The median follow-up time, median overall survival time and 5-year overall survival rate of the 202 patients not achieving TOLS were 14.0(6.8,25.5)months, 24.3(20.0,28.6)months and 21.0%. There was a significant difference in overall survival between patients achieving TOLS and patients not achieving TOLS ( χ2=58.491, P<0.05). (3) Analysis of factors influencing prognosis of patients. Results of multivariate analysis showed that TOLS, carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA), CA19-9, poorly differentiation of tumor, T2 stage of eighth edition of American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC) staging, T3 and T4 stage of eighth edition of AJCC staging, N1 stage of the eighth edition of AJCC staging, N2 stage of the eighth edition of AJCC staging, adjuvant therapy were independent factors influencing overall survival time of patients undergoing curative-intent resection for GBC ( hazard ratio=0.452, 1.479, 1.373, 1.612, 1.455, 1.481, 1.835, 1.978, 0.538, 95% c onfidence interval as 0.352-0.581, 1.141-1.964, 1.052-1.791, 1.259-2.063, 1.102-1.920, 1.022-2.147, 1.380-2.441, 1.342-2.915, 0.382-0.758, P<0.05). Conclusion:Patients under-going curative-intent resection for GBC with TOLS can achieve better long-term prognosis.

Objective:To evaluate the safety and efficacy of hydroxyapatite-magnesium (HA-Mg) glaucoma drainage plate after implantation in rabbit eyes.Methods:Twelve New Zealand white rabbits were randomly assigned to HA-Mg drainage implant group and trabeculectomy group using the paired comparison method, with 6 rabbits in each group.The right eyes of rabbits were taken as the experimental eyes, and the left eyes of rabbits were taken as a normal control group.HA-Mg drainage implant group underwent implantation of the HA-Mg drainage plate and the trabeculectomy group underwent trabeculectomy.At 1, 3, and 5 months after surgery, the ocular condition was observed by slit-lamp examination with auxiliary lenses and the fixation of the drainage plate in the anterior chamber and subconjunctiva was measured by ultrasound biomicroscopy.At 5 months after surgery, corneal endothelial cell counts were performed with a corneal endothelial cell counter.The intraocular pressure (IOP) was continuously measured weekly for 21 weeks preoperatively and postoperatively.The flow patency of aqueous humor drainage channel was identified by the injection of trypan blue in anterior chamber.The aqueous humor drainage channels and surrounding tissues were evaluated by hematoxylin-eosin (HE) staining after HA-Mg drainage plate was completely degraded.This study was in accordance with China Animal Welfare Law and the ARVO Statement on the use of animals for ophthalmic research, and animal experiments were conducted in accordance with the Regulations on the Administration of Experimental Animals issued by the National Science Council.The study protocol was reviewed and approved by the Ethics Committee of The Third Affiliated Hospital of Chongqing Medical University (No.Kelun Pre-Examination [2021]14).Results:No systemic or ocular side effects were observed in the experimental animals after surgery.All 6 HA-Mg drainage plates were completely degraded about 4 months postoperatively, among which 4 plates were well-fixed and 2 plates had a minimal rotation, and no plate moved into the anterior chamber.At 5 months after surgery, the number of corneal endothelial cells in the HA-Mg drainage implant group and normal control group was 2 535.2±274.4 and 2 521.0±175.8, respectively, and there was no statistical significance between them ( t=0.073, P=0.857).There were statistically significant differences in IOP among the three groups at different time points before and after surgery ( Fgroup=26.409, P<0.001; Ftime=7.843, P<0.001), in which the IOP in trabeculectomy group and normal control group at different time points after surgery was higher than that in HA-Mg drainage implant group, and the IOP in HA-Mg drainage implant group at different time points after surgery was lower than that before surgery (all at P<0.05).The patency test revealed that the trypan blue could still drain from the anterior chamber to the subconjunctiva 5 months after HA-Mg drainage plate implantation.The scleral linear aqueous humor drainage channel and anterior synechia were observed after drainage plate completely degraded 6 months postoperatively, and no obvious inflammatory cell infiltration was seen. Conclusions:After implantation of HA-Mg drainage plate in rabbit eyes, the intraocular pressure can be effectively lowered and the safety is good.

Objective:To evaluate the efficacy and safety of antaitasvir phosphate 100 mg or 200 mg combined with yiqibuvir for 12 weeks in patients with various genotypes of chronic hepatitis C, without cirrhosis or compensated stage cirrhosis.Methods:Patients with chronic hepatitis C (without cirrhosis or compensated stage cirrhosis) were randomly assigned to the antaitasvir phosphate 100 mg+yiqibuvir 600 mg group (100 mg group) or the antaitasvir phosphate 200 mg+yiqibuvir 600 mg group (200 mg group) in a 1∶1 ratio. The drugs were continuously administered once a day for 12 weeks and observed for 24 weeks after drug withdrawal. The drug safety profile was assessed concurrently with the observation of the sustained virological response (SVR12) in the two patient groups 12 weeks following the drug cessation. The intention-to-treat concept was used to define as closely as possible a full analysis set, including all randomized cases who received the experimental drug at least once. The safety set was collected from all subjects who received the experimental drug at least once (regardless of whether they participated in the randomization group) in this study. All efficacy endpoints and safety profile data were summarized using descriptive statistics. The primary efficacy endpoint was SVR12. The primary analysis was performed on a full analysis set. The frequency and proportion of cases were calculated in the experimental drug group (antaitasvir phosphate capsules combined with yiqibuvir tablets) that achieved "HCV RNA

Hip fracture in the elderly is characterized by high incidence, high disability rate, and high mortality and has been recognized as a public health issue threatening their health. Surgery is the preferred choice for the treatment of elderly patients with hip fracture. However, lower extremity deep venous thrombosis (DVT) has an extremely high incidence rate during the perioperative period, and may significantly increase the risk of patients′ death once it progresses to pulmonary embolism. In response to this issue, the clinical guidelines and expert consensuses all emphasize active application of comprehensive preventive measures, including basic prevention, physical prevention, and pharmacological prevention. In this prevention system, basic prevention is the basis of physical and pharmacological prevention. However,there is a lack of unified and definite recommendations for basic preventive measures in clinical practice. To this end, the Orthopedic Nursing Professional Committee of the Chinese Nursing Association and Nursing Department of the Orthopedic Branch of the China International Exchange and Promotive Association for Medical and Health Care organized relevant nursing experts to formulate Expert consensus on perioperative basic prevention for lower extremity deep venous thrombosis in elderly patients with hip fracture ( version 2024) . A total of 10 recommendations were proposed, aiming to standardize the basic preventive measures for lower extremity DVT in elderly patients with hip fractures during the perioperative period and promote their subsequent rehabilitation.

Patients with severe trauma require an extremely timely treatment and transfusion plays an irreplaceable role in the emergency treatment of such patients. An increasing number of evidence-based medicinal evidences and clinical practices suggest that patients with severe traumatic bleeding benefit from early transfusion of low-titer group O whole blood or hemostatic resuscitation with red blood cells, plasma and platelet of a balanced ratio. However, the current domestic mode of blood supply cannot fully meet the requirements of timely and effective blood transfusion for emergency treatment of patients with severe trauma in clinical practice. In order to solve the key problems in blood supply and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma, Branch of Clinical Transfusion Medicine of Chinese Medical Association, Group for Trauma Emergency Care and Multiple Injuries of Trauma Branch of Chinese Medical Association, Young Scholar Group of Disaster Medicine Branch of Chinese Medical Association organized domestic experts of blood transfusion medicine and trauma treatment to jointly formulate Chinese expert consensus on blood support mode and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma patients ( version 2024). Based on the evidence-based medical evidence and Delphi method of expert consultation and voting, 10 recommendations were put forward from two aspects of blood support mode and transfusion strategies, aiming to provide a reference for transfusion resuscitation in the emergency treatment of severe trauma and further improve the success rate of treatment of patients with severe trauma.

Objective:To construct a predictive model of radiomics based on laparoscopic grayscale ultrasound features and investigate its value in predicting microvascular invasion (MVI) of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) during laparoscopic liver resection.Methods:A total of 74 patients (74 lesions)with HCC confirmed by postoperative pathology, who underwent a laparoscopic ultrasonography during laparoscopic hepatectomy were prospectively enrolled in Tongji Hospital, Tongji Medical College, Huazhong University of Science and Technology from March 2022 to August 2023. The general clinical information of the patients was recorded, and the features were extracted and screened from tumor regions in gray-scale ultrasound images, and eventually the radiomics prediction models were constructed, respectively. Pathological results were used as gold standard to compare the effectiveness of different models in predicting MVI.Results:In the 74 HCC lesions, 12 lesions were MVI positive.The MVI imaging prediction model of HCC lesions was constructed from the screened clinical features, laparoscopic gray scale ultrasound image features, as well as combined screened clinical features, respectively. The obtained data sets were randomly divided into 5 parts (4 parts with 15 lesions, 1 part with 14 lesions), and the effectiveness of the model was trained and tested by the method of 5 folds interaction validation. The performance of support vector machine(SVM) radiomics model based on the characteristics of laparoscopic gray scale ultrasound in predicting the MVI of HCC was the best. Compared with clinical model and combined Adaboost model, the SVM, radiomics model had higher area under ROC curve (0.836 vs 0.696, 0.804), accuracy (0.852 vs 0.687, 0.838), sensitivity (0.900 vs 0.900, 0.833) and specificity (0.837 vs 0.644, 0.838). Conclusions:The radiomics model based on the characteristics of laparoscopic gray-scale ultrasound is an innovative potential approach to predict the MVI status of HCC lesions during laparoscopic hepatectomy.

Tumor cells use glycolysis to provide material and energy under hypoxic conditions to meet the energy requirements for rapid growth and proliferation， namely the Warburg effect. Even under aerobic conditions， tumor cells mainly rely on glycolysis to provide energy. Therefore， glucose transporter protein 1（GLUT1）， which is involved in the process of glucose metabolism， plays an important role in tumorigenesis， development and drug resistance， and is considered to be one of the important targets in the treatment of malignant tumors. In recent years， research on tumor glucose metabolism has gradually become a hot spot. It has been shown that various factors are involved in the regulation of tumor energy metabolism， among which the role of GLUT1 is the most critical. In this paper， the authors reviewed the latest research progress of GLUT1-targeted traditional Chinese medicine（TCM） active ingredient nano-delivery system in tumor therapy， aiming to reveal the feasibility and effectiveness of this system in the delivery of chemotherapeutic drugs. The GLUT1-targeted TCM active ingredient nano-delivery system can overcome the bottleneck of the traditional targeting strategy as well as the high-permeability long retention（EPR） effect. In summary， the authors believe that the GLUT1-targeted TCM active ingredient nano-delivery system provides a new strategy for targeted treatment of tumors and has a broad application prospect in tumor prevention and treatment.

The Spt-Ada-Gcn5-acetyltransferase (SAGA) is an ancillary transcription initiation complex which is highly conserved. The ADA1 (alteration/deficiency in activation 1, also called histone H2A functional interactor 1, HFI1) is a subunit in the core module of the SAGA protein complex. ADA1 plays an important role in plant growth and development as well as stress resistance. In this paper, we performed genome-wide identification of banana ADA1 gene family members based on banana genomic data, and analyzed the basic physicochemical properties, evolutionary relationships, selection pressure, promoter cis-acting elements, and its expression profiles under biotic and abiotic stresses. The results showed that there were 10, 6, and 7 family members in Musa acuminata, Musa balbisiana and Musa itinerans. The members were all unstable and hydrophilic proteins, and only contained the conservative SAGA-Tad1 domain. Both MaADA1 and MbADA1 have interactive relationship with Sgf11 (SAGA-associated factor 11) of core module in SAGA. Phylogenetic analysis revealed that banana ADA1 gene family members could be divided into 3 classes. The evolution of ADA1 gene family members was mostly influenced by purifying selection. There were large differences among the gene structure of banana ADA1 gene family members. ADA1 gene family members contained plenty of hormonal elements. MaADA1-1 may play a prominent role in the resistance of banana to cold stress, while MaADA1 may respond to the Panama disease of banana. In conclusion, this study suggested ADA1 gene family members are highly conserved in banana, and may respond to biotic and abiotic stress.

AIM: To investigate the preoperative ocular symptoms and the characteristics of asymptomatic ocular surface abnormalities in hospitalized patients with primary pterygium.METHODS: Cross-sectional study. Hospitalized patients diagnosed with primary pterygium and scheduled to receive pterygium excision surgery at the Xiamen Eye Center of Xiamen University from August 2022 to October 2022 were enrolled. Ocular surface disease index questionnaire(OSDI), six examinations including non-invasive tear film break-up time, Schirmer I test, tear meniscus height, lid margin abnormality, meibomian gland dropout and tear film lipid layer thickness, and anterior segment optical coherence tomography(AS-OCT)were performed and statistically analyzed.RESULTS: A total of 178 cases(178 eyes), with a mean age of 54.39±10.75 years old, were recruited, including 75 males(42.1%)and 103 females(57.9%). The average values of ocular surface parameters in these patients included OSDI: 11.47±9.69, tear film break-up time: 7.10±3.86 s; tear meniscus height: 0.16±0.07 mm, Schirmer I test values: 14.39±7.29 mm/5 min, and pterygium thickness: 504.74±175.87 μm. Totally 161 eyes(90.4%)presented with abnormal lid margin, 44 eyes(24.7%)presented with meibomian gland dropout score ≥4, 52 eyes(29.2%)presented with low lipid layer thickness. In the 6 objective examinations, abnormalities in at least 4 of these tests were found in 85.4% of eyes. Pterygium morphology was classified into four grades: 10 eyes(5.6%)of grade Ⅰ, 93 eyes(52.2%)of grade Ⅱ, 60 eyes(33.7%)of grade Ⅲ, and 15 eyes(8.4%)of grade Ⅳ. In patients with a higher grade of pterygium, the tear film break-up time was lower, and the proportion of abnormal lid margin was also significantly higher(P<0.05). The patients were further divided into two subgroups, including 121 eyes(68.0%)with normal OSDI <13 in the normal group and 57 eyes(32.0%)with OSDI ≥13 in the abnormal group. No significant difference was found in the proportion of meibomian gland dysfunction between the two groups of patients(71.9% vs. 71.9%, P=0.872). In addition, there were differences in the number of abnormal objective examinations(4.11±0.85 vs. 4.91±0.99, P<0.001).CONCLUSIONS: Asymptomatic ocular surface abnormalities were present preoperatively in patients hospitalized for primary pterygium. A comparable high incidence of structural or functional meibomian gland dysfunction existed in pterygium patients with or without apparent ocular discomfort. More attention should be paid to the ocular surface abnormalities in those asymptomatic patients before primary pterygium surgery.
