Ovarian cancer(OC)is a prevalent malignant gynecological tumor with a high mortality rate.The tumor immune microenvironment,consisting of immune components within the tumor microenvironment,plays a significant role in tumor devel-opment and metastasis.OC is typically categorized as a"cold tumor"due to its immunosuppressive microenvironment,resulting in limited efficacy of immunotherapy for this disease.Specifically,the expression of family with sequence similarity 111 member B(FAM111B)protein has been found to be correlated with the immune microenvironment of various tumors,including its associ-ation with the expression of programmed death ligand-1(PD-L1)in ovarian cancer tissues.This review provides an overview of recent research developments concerning the impact of the FAM111B gene on the immune microenvironment of ovarian cancer.

Objective:To identify risk factors influencing clinical efficacy of endoscopic resection of small rectal neuroendocrine tumor (NETs).Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on patients with rectal NETs ≤10 mm who underwent endoscopic resection from 2013 to 2022. Patients were divided into the endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) group and the endoscopic mucosal resection with ligation (EMRL) group according to the treatment methods. After comparing the baseline data, propensity score matching was performed to compare the rates of R1 resection and adequacy of vertical margin distance.Results:A total of 186 patients were included in this study, with 139 receiving ESD and 47 receiving EMRL. The R1 resection rates were 12.2% (17/139) and 2.1% (1/47) in the ESD and EMRL group, respectively ( χ2=3.027, P=0.082). A significant difference in vertical margin adequacy was observed between the two groups [69.1% (96/139) VS 85.1% (40/47), χ2=4.598, P=0.032]. After propensity score matching, 46 pairs of cases were included, and there were no significant differences in the R1 resection rate [6.5% (3/46) VS 2.2% (1/46), χ2=0.261, P=0.609] and vertical margin adequacy [78.3% (36/46) VS 84.8% (39/46), χ2=0.649, P=0.420] between the two groups. Univariate and multivariate Logistic regression analyses revealed that operator experience and preoperative biopsy were independent risk factors for inadequate margin. Conclusion:Treatment method may not be the key factor affecting the distance of the vertical margin after endoscopic resection, but preoperative biopsy and operator experience have a significant impact on margins. Biopsy before endoscopic resection should be avoided, and less experienced doctors are recommended to use EMRL method for small NETs due to its ease of execution.

OBJECTIVE To evaluate the value of BRAF V600E mutation detection combined with liquid-based thin-preparation cytologic test(LCT)in the preoperative diagnosis of papillary thyroid carcinoma(PTC)and the related pathological characteristics of BRAF V600E mutation.METHODS Clinical data of 428 patients with thyroid nodules who underwent surgery at the First Affiliated Hospital of Xiamen University from January 2023 to December 2023 were retrospectively analyzed.All patients underwent ultrasound-guided fine needle aspiration and liquid-based cytology diagnosis and BRAF V600E gene mutation detection simultaneously before surgery.RESULTS The results of BRAF V600E mutation were significantly correlated with the results of liquid-based cytology diagnosis in patients(P<0.01).The area under the curve(AUC value)of LCT was 0.88,and the AUC value of BRAF V600E was 0.84.The sensitivity and specificity of LCT for preoperative diagnosis of PTC were 0.80 and 0.96,respectively.The sensitivity and specificity of BRAF V600E for preoperative diagnosis of PTC were 0.72 and 0.96,respectively.The AUC value of LCT combined with BRAF V600E for the diagnosis of PTC was 0.93 while the sensitivity and specificity were 0.88 and 0.92,respectively.The combined diagnosis significantly improved the sensitivity and specificity of thyroid nodule disease diagnosis,with a statistically significant difference(Z=-5.50,-4.60,P<0.001).In addition,BRAF V600E mutation was associated with the age of patients,the maximum diameter of nodules,and whether the capsule was invaded,with significant statistical differences between groups(P<0.05),but was not associated with gender,whether the nodules were multifocal,whether lymph node metastasis occurred,or whether Hashimoto's thyroiditis was present.CONCLUSION The combination of FNA liquid-based thin-preparation cytologic test and BRAF V600E detection can significantly improve the preoperative diagnostic accuracy of PTC.

Objective: To investigate the epidemiological characteristics of human brucellosis in Jiande City, Zhejiang Province from 2005 to 2024, so as to provide the evidence for strengthening the prevention and control of brucellosis. Methods: Data on brucellosis cases and surveillance in Jiande City from 2005 to 2024 were collected through the Chinese Disease Prevention and Control Information System, the annual brucellosis surveillance reports from the Jiande Center for Disease Control and Prevention, and the annual summaries of brucellosis prevention and control efforts. The epidemiological characteristics of human brucellosis were analyzed using a descriptive epidemiological method. Results: A total of 1 125 individuals were monitored in Jiande City from 2005 to 2024, with 18 seropositive cases identified and the seropositivity rate of 1.60%. The average annual seropositivity rate from 2015 to 2024 was 3.35%, which was significantly higher than that of 0.57% from 2005 to 2014 (P<0.05). There were 10 confirmed brucellosis cases and 8 asymptomatic infections, with no reported deaths. The peak incidence occurred between March and August. Among the 16 towns (streets) in Jiande City, 8 reported brucellosis cases. Of the brucellosis cases, 14 were male and 4 were female, with a male-to-female ratio of 3.5∶1. The majority of cases (13 cases) were aged between 40 and 60 years. Occupational exposure was identified in 16 cases, all of whom were infected through direct hand contact with the excreta, secretions, or animal products of infected sheep or cattle. The primary source of infection was sheep, followed by cattle. Five strains of Brucella were isolated and cultured, all identified as Brucella melitensis biovar 3. Conclusions The brucellosis epidemic in Jiande City remained at a sporadic and low prevalence level from 2005 to 2024, with an increasing trend observed from 2015 to 2024. Male occupational groups aged 40 to 60 years were the key population for brucellosis prevention and control, and sheep were the primary source of infection.

Objective:To explore the current status and correlation of occupational stress and burnout among pediatric nurses.Methods:From April 2023 to January 2024, convenience sampling was used to select 150 pediatric nurses from Taizhou Hospital of Zhejiang Province, East Campus of Taizhou Hospital of Zhejiang Province, and Taizhou Enze Medical Center as research subjects. The survey was conducted using the General Information Questionnaire, Chinese version of the Maslach Burnout Inventory General Survey, and Nurse Job Stressors Scale.Results:A total of 150 nurses were surveyed, and 149 valid questionnaires were collected, with a valid response rate of 99.33%. Pediatric nurses had high scores in emotional exhaustion and depersonalization dimensions in occupational burnout. The job stressors for pediatric nurses were ranked in order of their scores in each dimension, including workload and time management, work environment and resources, nursing profession and work, management and interpersonal relationships, and patient nursing. There were correlations between occupational burnout and occupational stress among pediatric nurses in multiple dimensions (all P<0.05) . Conclusions:Pediatric nurses have a relatively high level of occupational burnout and often face significant occupational stress. In the development of the healthcare system, attention should be paid to the occupational burnout and stress of pediatric nurses. The physical and mental health of pediatric nursing staff can be promoted and work efficiency can be improved by reducing the overloaded work of pediatric nurses, optimizing personnel allocation, and improving social support.

Objective To explore the effect of ritodrine hydrochloride combined with magnesium sulfate in the treatment of threatened abortion in older patients with a second child and to analyze its possible mechanism of action.Methods From March 2020 to December 2021,100 older second-child patients with threatened abortion at Handan Maternal and Child Health Hospital were selected and divided into control and observation groups using a random number table method,with 50 cases in each group.The control group was treated with magnesium sulfate based on general intervention measures(bed rest,intermittent oxygen inhalation,nutrition intake,and psychological nursing),while the observation group was treated with ritodrine hydrochloride combined with magnesium sulfate based on general inter-vention measures.The treatment effects,immunoregulatory function indicators[serum blocking antibody(BA)and anticardiolipin antibody(ACA)],sex hormone levels[progesterone(P),estradiol(E2),β-human chorionic gonadotropin(β-hCG)]and related cytokines[pregnan-cy-associated plasma protein A(PAPP-A),human leukocyte antigen G(HLA-G),and interleukin-10(IL-10)]before and after treatment,as well as maternal and infant outcomes and adverse reactions were compared.Results The total efficacy rate was higher in the observa-tion group than in the control group(96％vs.80％,P＜0.05).Compared with before treatment,the serum BA-positivity rate significantly increased and the ACA-positivity rate significantly decreased in both groups after treatment(both P＜0.05).However,after treatment the serum BA-positivity rate was higher in the observation group than in the control group,and the ACA-positivity rate was lower than that in the control group(both P＜0.05).Compared with before treatment,the serum P,E2,β-hCG,PAPP-A,HLA-G,and IL-10 levels signifi-cantly increased at the end of treatment and 2 weeks after treatment in both groups.The levels of sex hormones and related cytokines in the observation group were higher than those in the control group at the end of treatment and two weeks after treatment(both P＜0.05).The success rates of pregnancy maintenance,full-term delivery,and natural labor were higher in the observation group than in the control group;however,the incidences of abortion,premature delivery,cesarean section,and adverse neonatal outcomes were lower than those in the control group(all P＜0.05).There was no significant difference in the incidence of adverse reactions between the two groups(P＜0.05).Conclusion The combination of ritodrine hydrochloride and magnesium sulfate has significant therapeutic effects in the treatment of threatened abortion in older women with a second pregnancy.It can improve maternal immune regulation,regulate sex hormone levels and PAPP-A,HLA-G,and IL-10 levels,reduce adverse maternal and fetal outcomes,and does not increase adverse reactions.
