ObjectiveTo investigate the mechanisms of mitochondrial dynamics and metabolic reprogramming in the treatment of diabetic nephropathy （DN） by Shenxiao Tongluo prescription via the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ coactivator-1α （PGC-1α）/sirtuin-3 （SIRT3）/hypoxia-inducible factor-1α （HIF-1α） signaling pathway. MethodsSixty-five SD rats were randomized into a sham group （10 rats） and a modeling group （55 rats）， and the modeling rats underwent left nephrectomy and intraperitoneal injection of streptozotocin （35 mg·kg^-1） to prepare a DN model. After successful modeling， the rats were randomized into model， empagliflozin （10 mg·kg^-1）， and low-， medium-， and high-dose （7.656， 15.312， 30.624 g·kg^-1， respectively） Shenxiao Tongluo prescription groups. The urine microalbumin （UmAlb）， blood urea nitrogen （BUN）， and serum creatinine （SCr） levels of rats in each group were assessed after continuous gavage for 8 weeks. The corresponding kits were used to measure the levels of lactate， superoxide dismutase （SOD）， and malondialdehyde （MDA） in the kidney tissue. Hematoxylin-eosin staining， Masson staining， and periodic acid-Schiff staining were performed to observe the pathological changes in the kidney tissue. Transmission electron microscopy was employed to observe mitochondrial morphology. Immunohistochemistry was employed to determine the expression levels of dynamin-related protein 1 （DRP1） and pyruvate kinase M2 （PKM2） in the kidney tissue. Western blot was adopted to assess the protein levels of PGC-1α， SIRT3， HIF-1α， dynamin-related protein 1 （Drp1）， optic atrophy 1 （OPA1）， hexokinase 2 （HK2）， and pyruvate kinase M2 （PKM2） in the kidney tissue. ResultsCompared with the sham group， the model group showed elevated levels of UmAlb， BUN， SCr， lactate， and MDA， decreased SOD level （P<0.05）， glomerular hypertrophy， thickening of the mesangial basement membrane， vacuolar degeneration of renal tubular epithelial cells， and infiltration of renal interstitial inflammatory cells， oval mitochondria with disordered， blurred or disappearing cristae， down-regulated protein levels of PGC-1α， SIRT3， and OPA1， and up-regulated protein levels of HIF-1α， DRP1， HK2， and PKM2 （P<0.05）. Compared with the model group， the treatment in all the groups increased the body weight， lowered the levels of GLU， UmAlb， BUN， and MDA， raised the level of SOD， alleviated the pathological damage in the kidney tissue and mitochondrial damage， up-regulated the expression of PGC-1α， SIRT3， and OPA1， and down-regulated the expression of HIF-1α， DRP1， and PKM2 （P<0.05）. Empagliflozin and Shenxiao Tongluo prescription at medium and high doses lowered the levels of SCr and lactate and down-regulated the expression of HK2 （P<0.05）， which had no statistical significance in the low-dose Shenxiao Tongluo prescription group. ConclusionShenxiao Tongluo prescription may regulate mitochondrial dynamics and metabolic reprogramming by activating the PGC-1α/SIRT3/HIF-1α pathway， thereby alleviating oxidative damage in the kidney tissue and delaying the progression of DN.

Objective To compare the synergies between the transcutaneous needle electrodes and the ETT surface electrodes used for neurological surveillance in thyroidology,and explore how to identify and protect recurrent laryngeal nerve and vagus nerve when the patient is not suitable for oral plug or surface electrodes are failure.Methods To collect and analyze the clinical data of 32 patients undergoing surgical treatment for thyroid disease,a total of 40 neurons of the recurrent laryngeal nerves and vagus nerves were monitored,and the amplitude and latency were recorded using ETT surface electrodes and transcutaneous needle electrodes for nerve monitoring,respectively.SPSS 26.0 software was used for statistical analysis,paired t-tests were used to analyze and compare the latency periods,and the rank sum test was used to analyze whether there is a difference in the amplitude obtained from stimulation of transcutaneous needle electrodes and ETT surface electrodes.Results When the transcutaneous needle electrodes were used in thyroid surgery,we identified all the nerves,obtained two-phase electrical signals similar to the latency and amplitude of the ETT surface electrodes,and could effectively identify the recurrent laryngeal nerve and vagus nerve[(3.22±0.50)ms vs.(3.85±1.00)ms,P＜0.05]through the incapacity period,with no obvious difference in the monitoring effect from the ETT surface electrodes[(3.04±0.58)ms vs.(3.89±1.07)ms,P＜0.05].At the same time,the visualization and safety of transcutaneous needle electrodes were higher,with great advantages.Conclusion Transcutaneous needle electrodes can effectively assist in identifying and protecting the recurrent laryngeal nerve and vagus nerve,and thus are an important supplement to ETT surface electrodes.

Objective:To investigate the efficacy of endoscopic surgery using a chest-breast approach for thyroid papillary cancer and its effect on stress response and pain transmitters.Methods:A total of 100 patients with thyroid papillary cancer who received treatment at Zhoushan Hospital between January 2022 and January 2023 were retrospectively included in this study. These patients were divided into an endoscopic surgery group and a traditional surgery group according to the surgical method used, with 50 patients in each group. The endoscopic surgery group received endoscopic surgery, while the traditional surgery group underwent traditional open surgery. Surgical indicators, postoperative complications, thyroid function measured before surgery and 5 days after surgery, stress response, and pain transmitters were compared between the two groups.Results:The operative time in the endoscopic surgery group was longer than that in the traditional surgery group [(147.84 ± 27.95) minutes vs. (112.31 ± 23.16) minutes, t = 6.92, P < 0.001]. Intraoperative blood loss in the endoscopic surgery group was less than that in the traditional surgery group [(20.81 ± 4.24) mL vs. (37.74 ± 6.56) mL, t = 15.33, P < 0.001]. Postoperative drainage amount in the endoscopic surgery group was significantly less than that in the traditional surgery group [(32.34 ± 6.84) mL vs. (47.96 ± 12.31) mL, t = 7.84, P < 0.001]. Postoperative length of hospital stay in the endoscopic surgery group was significantly shorter than that in the traditional surgery group [(4.06 ± 1.31) days vs. (6.87 ± 1.54) days, t = 9.83, P < 0.001). The incidence of postoperative complications in the endoscopic surgery group was significantly lower than that in the traditional surgery group (6.00% vs 20.00%, χ2 = 4.33, P = 0.037). At 5 days post-surgery, the levels of triiodothyronine and thyroxine in the endoscopic surgery group were significantly lower than those in the traditional surgery group, while the level of thyroid stimulating hormone was significantly higher ( t = 5.57, 8.69, 10.17, all P < 0.001). At 5 days post-surgery, the levels of cortisol and malondialdehyde in the endoscopic surgery group were significantly lower than those in the traditional surgery group ( t = 9.31, 17.21, both P < 0.001). At 5 days post-surgery, the levels of substance P, neuropeptide Y, and prostaglandin E 2 in the endoscopic surgery group were significantly lower than those in the traditional surgery group ( t = 9.84, 13.65, 10.94, all P < 0.05). Conclusion:The endoscopic surgery using a chest-breast approach is highly effective in treating thyroid papillary cancer, with minimal complications. It greatly enhances thyroid function, elicits a low stress response, and effectively suppresses the release of pain transmitters.

Objective:To explore the factors associated with vascular luminal dilatational remodeling (VLDR) following balloon angioplasty for intracranial atherosclerotic stenosis (ICAS).Methods:A case-control study was conducted to analyze the data of symptomatic severe ICAS patients who received either paclitaxel-coated balloon angioplasty (PCBA) or plain balloon angioplasty (POBA) at our center from January 2019 to January 2022 and completed the six-month follow-up. The patients were divided into VLDR group and non-VLDR group according to whether VLDR occurred on follow-up digital subtraction angiography (DSA). The baseline data, preoperative and postoperative lesion characteristics (DSA), and perioperative related information were collected. The definition of VLDR was a decrease in luminal stenosis rate by more than 10% at the time of follow-up compared to the immediate postoperative period. Multivariate logistic regression was performed to analyze possible factors affecting VLDR such as balloon type, balloon length, and expansion time.Results:A total of 88 patients were included in this study, with 16 in the VLDR group and 72 in the non-VLDR group. The follow-up time for all included patients was 6.00 (5.00, 7.00) months. VLDR occurred in 18.2% (16/88) of cases, with a VLDR incidence of 30.4% (14/46) after PCBA and 4.8% (2/42) after POBA. Univariate logistic regression analysis revealed that treatment balloon type, balloon length, inflated time, immediate postoperative stenosis rate, follow-up time and Mori classification may affect the occurrence of VLDR. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the use of paclitaxel-coated balloon (PCB) ( OR=9.82, 95% CI 1.99-48.49, P=0.005) and postoperative immediate stenosis rate ( OR=1.07, 95% CI 1.00-1.14, P=0.042) were independently associated with VLDR. Conclusion:The occurrence of VLDR following balloon angioplasty in ICAS was associated with the use of PCB and immediate postoperative stenosis rates, which will provide guidance for the clinical application of PCB.

OBJECTIVE To compare the consistency between the semi-quantitative detection of HPV E6/E7 mRNA and the detection of p16 IHC and E6/E7RNA ISH in the tissues,and the feasibility of detecting high-risk HPV in head and neck mucosal lesions by HPV E6/E7 mRNA detection in the swabs was discussed.METHODS A total of 100 cases of head and neck mucosal lesions treated by the Department of Head and Neck Surgery,Beijing Tongren Hospital Affiliated to Capital Medical University from September 2022 to August 2023 were collected.Semi-quantitative detection of HPV E6/E7 mRNA was performed in oropharynx,lesion surface swab and lesion tissue specimen,and p16 immunohistochemical staining(IHC)and E6/E7 mRNA in situ hybridization(ISH)were detected in lesion tissue,and the consistency and difference of different detection results were studied.RESULTS Among the 100 patients,83 met the inclusion criteria and were divided into 21 papilloma cases,10 polyps/chronic inflammation cases,19 laryngeal cancer cases,13 oropharyngeal cancer cases,and 20 hypopharyngeal cancer cases according to pathological diagnosis.The HPV E6/E7 mRNA semi-quantitative results of oropharyngeal swab and lesion surface swab showed moderate or near high consistency with p16 IHC results.The results of HPV E6/E7 mRNA semi-quantitative in diseased tissue were highly consistent with those of p16 IHC(Kappa=0.780).In the diagnostic efficacy analysis,both swabs showed high consistency with HPV E6/E7 mRNA ISH(Kappa=0.690 and 0.708).CONCLUSION In the head and neck mucosal lesions,the HPV semi-quantitative detection results of oropharyngeal and lesion surface swab showed good consistency compared with classical p16 IHC and gold standard HPV E6/E7 mRNA ISH.It is a simple and reliable method for clinical high-risk HPV detection,which is helpful for the screening and individualized precise prevention and control of HPV infection in head and neck mucosal lesions.

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).

Background::A phase II trial on recombinant human tenecteplase tissue-type plasminogen activator (rhTNK-tPA) has previously shown its preliminary efficacy in ST elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) patients. This study was designed as a pivotal postmarketing trial to compare its efficacy and safety with rrecombinant human tissue-type plasminogen activator alteplase (rt-PA) in Chinese patients with STEMI.Methods::In this multicenter, randomized, open-label, non-inferiority trial, patients with acute STEMI were randomly assigned (1:1) to receive an intravenous bolus of 16 mg rhTNK-tPA or an intravenous bolus of 8 mg rt-PA followed by an infusion of 42 mg in 90 min. The primary endpoint was recanalization defined by thrombolysis in myocardial infarction (TIMI) flow grade 2 or 3. The secondary endpoint was clinically justified recanalization. Other endpoints included 30-day major adverse cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events (MACCEs) and safety endpoints.Results::From July 2016 to September 2019, 767 eligible patients were randomly assigned to receive rhTNK-tPA ( n = 384) or rt-PA ( n = 383). Among them, 369 patients had coronary angiography data on TIMI flow, and 711 patients had data on clinically justified recanalization. Both used a –15% difference as the non-inferiority efficacy margin. In comparison to rt-PA, both the proportion of patients with TIMI grade 2 or 3 flow (78.3% [148/189] vs. 81.7% [147/180]; differences: –3.4%; 95% confidence interval [CI]: –11.5%, 4.8%) and clinically justified recanalization (85.4% [305/357] vs. 85.9% [304/354]; difference: –0.5%; 95% CI: –5.6%, 4.7%) in the rhTNK-tPA group were non-inferior. The occurrence of 30-day MACCEs (10.2% [39/384] vs. 11.0% [42/383]; hazard ratio: 0.96; 95% CI: 0.61, 1.50) did not differ significantly between groups. No safety outcomes significantly differed between groups. Conclusion::rhTNK-tPA was non-inferior to rt-PA in the effect of improving recanalization of the infarct-related artery, a validated surrogate of clinical outcomes, among Chinese patients with acute STEMI.Trial registration::www.ClinicalTrials.gov (No. NCT02835534).
