AIM:To investigate the ameliorative effect of nociceptin/orphanin(N/OFQ)on anxiety-like be-havior in nicotine(NIC)withdrawal-induced rats and its regulatory mechanisms on the expression of neurotransmitters as-sociated with the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal(HPA)axis and inflammatory factors.METHODS:Thirty-two adult male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into 4 groups:normal control group,NIC withdrawal model group,low-dose N/OFQ treatment group,and high-dose N/OFQ treatment group,with 8 rats in each group.To establish NIC with-drawal model,the rats in the NIC model and N/OFQ treatment groups were subcutaneously injected with NIC(0.4 mg/kg),twice a day for 7 consecutive days followed by 3 days of withdrawal.During the withdrawal period,the rats in the low and high-dose N/OFQ treatment groups received intracerebroventricular injection of N/OFQ(1 nmol or 10 nmol)once per day for 3 consecutive days.Ten minutes after the third administration,all rats underwent open filed(OF)and elevated plus maze(EPM)tests to detect behavioral changes.The serum concentrations of corticotrophin-releasing hormone(CRH),adrenocorticotropic hormone(ACTH),corticosterone(CORT),tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α),interleukin-1β(IL-1β)and IL-6 were measured by ELISA.The mRNA expression levels of TNF-α,IL-1β and IL-6 in the central nu-cleus of the amygdala(CeA)of the brain were detected by RT-qPCR.Histological changes in neuron morphology in the CA1 region of the hippocampus were observed under a light microscope following hematoxylin and eosin(HE)staining.Norepinephrine(NE)levels in the CeA of the brain were determined by HPLC.The protein expression of tyrosine hydroxy-lase(TH)in the CeA of the brain was detected by Western blot.RESULTS:Compared with the NIC withdrawal model group,rats in the low and high-dose N/OFQ treatment groups showed significant increase in the distance and time spent in the central area of the open field(P<0.05 or P<0.01),as well as significant increase in the number of entries and the per-centage of time spent in the open arms of the EPM(P<0.05 or P<0.01).Furthermore,both low and high-dose N/OFQ treatment groups significantly inhibited serum concentrations of CRH,ACTH and CORT in NIC withdrawal rats(P<0.01).N/OFQ administration also significantly reduced the levels of inflammatory cytokines TNF-α,IL-1β,and IL-6 in the serum,as well as expression levels of TNF-α,IL-1β and IL-6 mRNA in the CeA(P<0.05 or P<0.01).The treatment with N/OFQ at both doses significantly alleviated neuronal damage in the CA1 region of the hippocampus and markedly re-duced thelevels of NE and TH protein expression in the CeA of NIC withdrawal rats(P<0.01).CONCLUSION:N/OFQ alleviates anxiety-like behavior in NIC withdrawal rats through mechanisms related to the regulation of HPA axis hormone levels and inflammatory factors.

Objective:To develop a joint clinical practice teaching and assessment program tailored to the clinical training needs of master of nursing specialist (MNS) postgraduates which focuses on core competency requirements.Methods:Totally 10 MNS postgraduate supervisors were selected by convenience sampling for semi-structured interviews between May and July 2023. Subsequently, a Delphi method was employed with 22 MNS postgraduate supervisors over two rounds of consultations from October to December 2023.Results:A total of 22 experts participated in the Delphi consultations, with an effective response rate of 100.00% (22/22) in both rounds. The expert authority coefficients were 0.822 and 0.833, respectively, for the two rounds. The Kendall's W for various levels of indicators ranged from 0.097 to 0.243 and 0.159 to 0.256, respectively ( P<0.01). The final training program included five primary indicators, 10 secondary indicators, and 26 tertiary indicators. Conclusions:The development process for the joint clinical practice teaching and assessment program for MNS postgraduates is scientific and reliable. The program can serve as a reference for the clinical practice training of MNS postgraduates.

Objective:To evaluate the clinical application potential of a novel prostate specific membrane antigen (PSMA) targeted PET tracer 68Ga-PSMA-NYM032 in patients diagnosed initially with prostate cancer. Methods:A total of 63 patients (age (68.7±8.7) years) with suspected prostate cancers who received 68Ga-PSMA-NYM032 PET/CT imaging in Affiliated Hospital of Jiangnan University between March 2022 and January 2023 were enrolled prospectively. The diagnostic efficiency of 68Ga-PSMA-NYM032 PET/CT imaging was evaluated in a patient-centered manner. The ROI was drawn to obtain SUV max by semi-quantitative analysis with visual analysis, and the diagnostic threshold of SUV max was obtained by ROC curve analysis. The correlations of SUV max in primary foci with total prostate specific antigen (tPSA) and Gleason score (GS) were analyzed by Spearman rank correlation analysis. Based on the D′Amico risk stratification (prostate specific antigen (PSA)>20 μg/L and ≤20 μg/L, GS>7 and ≤7), the detection rates of metastases by 68Ga-PSMA-NYM032 PET/CT imaging in different stratifications were analyzed by Fisher exact test, and the differences between SUV max of metastases in different stratifications were determined by Mann-Whitney U test. Results:The accuracy of 68Ga-PSMA-NYM032 PET/CT imaging was 92.06%(58/63), the sensitivity was 96.55%(28/29), the specificity was 88.24%(30/34), the positive predictive value was 87.50%(28/32), the negative predictive value was 96.77%(30/31), and the optimal SUV max threshold was 6.9. 68Ga-PSMA-NYM032 showed varying degrees of high uptake in the primary foci of prostate cancer, and SUV max were positively correlated with tPSA and GS ( rs values: 0.657, 0.592, P values: <0.001, 0.001). Stratified analysis showed a statistically significant difference in the detection rate of bone metastases by 68Ga-PSMA-NYM032 PET/CT between the GS>7 and GS≤7 subgroups (9/17 vs 1/12; P=0.019), while no statistical significances were observed in the detection rates of bone metastases or lymph node metastases of another subgroups (all P>0.05). In addition, none of the differences in SUV max of metastases in patients with different stratifications were statistically significant ( z value: from -1.57 to -0.50, all P>0.05). Conclusions:68Ga-PSMA-NYM032 PET/CT imaging has good diagnostic efficacy for prostate cancer, and it may provide a new strategy for the precise diagnosis and treatment of prostate cancer. Besides, GS stratification may affect the detection rate of bone metastases by 68Ga-PSMA-NYM032 PET/CT imaging.

Objective:To investigate the expression and clinical significance of effector T cell (Teff), regulatory T cell (Treg) and their cytokines in patients with vitiligo.Methods:84 patients with vitiligo (38 cases in stable stage, 46 cases in advanced stage) who were admitted to the Dermatology Department of the Dezhou People's Hospital between June 2018 and June 2019 and 30 healthy people (control group) were enrolled in the study. The levels of Teff subsets and Treg cells in peripheral blood were detected by flow cytometry. The levels of Teff subsets and Treg cells-associated cytokines were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). The relationship between Teff subsets and Treg cells levels in peripheral blood, relationship between Teff subgroups, Treg cells-associated cytokines and course of vitiligo, skin lesion area were analyzed.Results:The levels of T helper cell (Th)17 and Th22 in peripheral blood of vitiligo group were significantly higher than those of control group, while levels of Treg cells were significantly lower than control group ( P<0.05). Compared with the stable vitiligo group, the levels of Th17 and Th22 in peripheral blood were higher and levels of Treg cells were lower in the advanced vitiligo group ( P<0.05). Treg cell level was negatively correlated with Th17 cell level ( r=-0.303, P=0.001), and negatively correlated with Th22 cell level ( r=-0.200, P=0.033). The levels of serum interleukin (IL)-17 and IL-22 in vitiligo group were significantly higher than those in control group, while the level of transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) was significantly lower than that in control group ( P<0.05). Compared with the stable vitiligo group, levels of serum IL-17 and IL-22 were higher and level of TGF-β was lower in the advanced vitiligo group ( P<0.05). Correlation analysis showed that levels of IL-17 and IL-22 were positively correlated with skin lesion area ( r=0.361, 0.288, P<0.05), and level of TGF-β was negatively correlated with skin lesion area ( r=-0.312, P<0.05). Conclusions:Teff/Treg cells are unbalanced in patients with vitiligo, showing obvious shift to Teff subsets. The progression of vitiligo may be related to Teff subsets and Treg cells-associated cytokines.

Objective To evaluate the diagnostic efficiency and prognostic value of 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) PET/CT for response assessment after treatment in patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) when using the Deauville criteria and International Harmonization Project (IHP) criteria.Methods A total of 212 patients (119 males,93 males,average age:59.6(10-88) years) with DLBCL from February 2010 to June 2018 were analyzed.All subjects underwent restaging PET/CT after treatment.Images were evaluated with the IHP criteria,Deauville score of 3-5 (DC3) and Deauville score of 4-5 (DC4).The diagnostic efficiency of the 3 criteria for treatment effect was assessed and follow-up results were used as the gold standard.Spearman rank correlation analysis was used.Progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) were analyzed by Kaplan-Meier analysis and Cox proportional hazards model.Results The positive predictive value and accuracy of DC4 for treatment effect evaluation were 96.8％(61/63) and 94.3％(200/212),those of IHP criteria were 75.3％(67/89) and 87.7％(186/212)respectively,and those of DC3 were 82.9％ (68/82) and 92.0％ (195/212) respectively.IHP criteria results and Deauville scores were correlated(rs =0.926,P＜0.05).The 2-year PFS rates in IHP-,DC3-and CD4-positive groups were 78.7％,76.5％ and 69.8％,respectively,and those in IHP-,DC3-and CD4-negative groups were significantly higher (95.6％,94.7％,97.2％;x2=14.415,18.293 and 26.920,all P＜0.05).The similar results were found for OS rates (x2 =9.597,11.149 and 17.416,all P＜0.05).The 2-year PFS rates in Deauville score of 1,2,3,4,5 groups were 95.3％,91.7％,93.3％,88.9％ and 55.6％ respectively (x2 =48.199,P＜0.05).Cox-regression analysis showed significant correlation between Deauville criteria and 2-year PFS rate (P＜0.05).Conclusions PET/CT with DC4,DC3 and IHP criteria have high predictive values for treatment outcome,and DC4 is the best.Cox regression analysis shows significant risk of progression by Deauville criteria.

Objective To explore the method and effect of applying just-in-time-teaching (JiTT) mode in the reform of the teaching method of biochemical comprehensive experiment (Isolation, Purification and Identification of γ-Globulin From serum). Methods A total of 100 undergraduate students in our 2016 clinical medicine were divided evenly into two groups: the control group and the experimental group. The control group used traditional teaching, and the experimental group used JiTT-based teaching. In the experimental group, an online environment for pre-classroom discussion and feedback was constructed by uploading learning resources such as short video and tutorials to the online teaching platform and the online learning exchange group 3-5 days before the class; the class session itself consisted of personal tests, face-to-face teaching by teachers, group discussion, finishing experimental report and answering questions etc., and was intended to evaluate the students' self-study. SPSS 22.0 was used to collect exam scores and questionnaire results, and the data between groups were compared using t test. Results The scores of individual test scores in the experimental group (9.44±0.59) were higher than those in the control group (8.77±0.41) (P=0.00), and the difference was statistically significant. In all the six questionnaire items pertaining to teaching effect , JiTT teaching method received higher scores than the traditional teaching method (P<0.05), and the difference was statistically significant. Conclusion JiTT can improve the quality of biochemistry experiment teaching. It is worthwhile to try it in the teaching of other basic specialized courses.
