Objective:To investigate the application value of a multi-dimensional digital moni-toring platform for perioperative period in gastric cancer patients.Methods:The retrospective cohort study was conducted. The clinical data of 50 patients who underwent laparoscopic radical gastrec-tomy in The Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing University of Chinese Medicine from July 2022 to January 2024 were collected. There were 35 males and 15 females, aged (64±12)years. All patients followed the concept of enhanced recovery after surgery, and the multi-dimensional digital monitoring platform based on wearable monitoring equipment was used to implement perioperative management measures. Observation indicators: (1) results of heart rate variability (HRV) monitoring; (2) results of blood glucose and blood oxygen monitoring; (3) results of exercise and sleep monitoring; (4) results of body composition monitoring. Measurement data with normal distribution were represented as Mean± SD, and measurement data with skewed distribution were represented as M(IQR). Repeated measurement data were analyzed using the repeated ANOVA. Measurement data with skewed distri-bution were transformed to normal distribution by SPSS transformation function before testing. For comparison between pre- and postoperation, paired sample t test was used for measurement data with normal distribution, and nonparametric Wilcoxon signed rank sum test was used for measure-ment data with skewed distribution. Results:(1) Results of HRV monitoring. From preoperation to the third day after surgery, the standard deviation normal to normal heart beat of 50 patients was changed from(103±26)ms to(101±36)ms, the mean of the standard deviations of normal to normal heart beat calculated per 5 min segment was changed from (45±16)ms to(33±12)ms, the number of pairs of adjacent NN intervals differing by more than 50 ms in the entire recording was changed from 6.02%(4.96%) to 5.79%(4.20%), the low frequency power was changed from 376.78(468.96)ms 2 to 742.79(525.20)ms 2, the high frequency power was changed from 273.61(273.58)ms 2 to 397.48(164.87)ms 2, the ratio of low frequency power to high frequency power was changed from 1.6±0.5 to 1.6±0.6, showing significant differences in above indicators before and after operation ( F=34.43, 26.15, 24.58, 5.51, 6.11, 6.02, P<0.05). (2) Results of blood glucose and blood oxygen monitoring. From preoperation to the third day after surgery, the blood glucose of 50 patients was changed from 6.75(2.05)mmol/L to 6.90(2.63)mmol/L, showng a significant difference before and after operation ( F=45.84, P<0.05). The blood oxygen was changed from 97.00%(5.00%) to 97.50%(3.00%), showing no significant difference before and after operation ( F=2.25, P>0.05). (3) Results of exercise and sleep monitoring. From preoperation to the third day after surgery, the number of steps fo 50 pati-ents was changed from 3 043(1 224) to 1 473(767), sleep duration was changed from(8.2±1.1)hours to(7.3±0.8)hours, sleep score was changed from 80±10 to 78±5,showing significant differences in above indicators before and after operation ( F=716.46, 29.02, 47.32, P<0.05).(4) Results of body composition monitoring. The body weight of 50 patients was changed from (63±8)kg to(61±8)kg before and after operation, body fat rate was changed from 24%±8% to 22%±9%, muscle mass was changed from 43 (12)kg to 41(17)kg, body mass index was changed from (23.0±2.6)kg/m 2 to(22.1±2.5)kg/m 2, showing significant differences in above indicators before and after operation ( t=8.19, 3.00, Z=-2.78, t=7.34, P<0.05), while there was no significant difference in basal metabolic indicators from (1 390±134)kcal to (1 379±139)kcal before and after operation ( t=1.02, P>0.05). Conclusion:The multi-dimensional digital monitoring platform for preoperative period can accurately monitor the perioperative stress level and evaluate the postoperative recovery of gastric cancer patients, which can present the visual results.

Objective:To evaluate the diagnostic value of targeted biopsy of secondary lesion (SL) in systematic biopsy (SB) combined targeted biopsy for clinically significant prostate cancer (CsPCa).Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on the data of patients who underwent systematic biopsy combined target biopsy at Nanjing Drum Tower Hospital from January 2021 to February 2023, and they had at least two Prostate Imaging-Reporting and Data System (PI-RADS) score ≥3 lesions on prostate magnetic resonance imaging. The study included patients with a median age of 70 (65, 76) years old, median prostate specific antigen (PSA) was 9.1 (5.96, 13.62) ng/ml, median prostate volume was 39.1 (29.27, 53.25) ml, and median PSAD was 0.2 (0.15, 0.38) ng/ml 2.The index lesion (IL) was defined as the one with the highest PI-RADS score and SL was defined as the one with the second-highest PI-RADS score. If the two lesions had the same PI-RADS score, the one with larger maximum diameter was IL and the other one was SL. The median maximum diameter of IL and SL were 1.3 (1.06, 1.66) cm and 0.9 (0.69, 1.20) cm, respectively. The median maximum diameter ratio of IL and SL was 1.48 (1.10, 1.91), and the median maximum diameter difference of IL and SL was 0.9 (0.20, 1.89) cm. The IL in peripheral zone was found in 238 patients (62.63%) and SL in peripheral zone was found in 255 patients (67.10%). There were 204 patients (53.68%) having both IL and SL on the same side of prostate. According to the combination of PI-RADS scores of IL and SL, patients were categorized into various groups: 96 patients (25.26%) with IL3 and SL3, 79 (20.78%) with IL4 and SL3, 98 (25.78%) with IL4 and SL4, 21 (5.52%) with IL5 and SL3, 76 (20.0%) with IL5 and SL4, and 10 (2.63%) with IL5 and SL5. Targeted biopsy was performed on at least two of the most significant lesions. Comparison was performed in the detection rate of CsPCa between SB+ IL+ SL and SB+ IL (SL was omitted). To explore the factors influencing the detection rate of CsPCa, a multivariate logistic regression analysis was used. Results:The detection rate of CsPCa in this study was 78.95% (300/380) based on SB+ IL+ SL. After omitting SL target biopsy, the detection rate of CsPCa was 78.16% (297/380, P>0.05) under the condition of SB+ IL. No significant differences were noted between the two groups. The multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that PSA ( OR=1.11, 95% CI 1.05-1.20, P<0.01), prostate volume ( OR=0.98, 95% CI 0.96-0.99, P<0.01), SL maximum diameter ( OR=0.19, 95% CI 0.08-0.50, P<0.01), ratio of IL and SL maximum diameter ( OR=0.34, 95% CI 0.16-0.68, P<0.01), difference of IL and SL maximum diameter ( OR=1.50, 95% CI 1.10-2.29, P<0.05), and PI-RADS score group of IL and SL (IL3 vs. SL3 as the reference, IL4 vs. SL3 OR=4.79, 95% CI 2.21-10.91, P<0.01, IL4 vs. SL4 OR=23.11 95% CI 8.09-85.28, P<0.01, IL5 vs. SL3/4/5 OR=15.28 95% CI 5.21-48.55, P<0.01) were the influencing factors for detection rate of CsPCa. Conclusions:For patients with at least two PI-RADS score≥3 lesions on prostate magnetic resonance imaging, omitting SL can almost maintain the same detection efficacy.

Objective:To analyze the clinical features and immunotherapy responsiveness of patients with myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein immunoglobulin G-antibody associated disease (MOGAD) with epilepsy, and display the risk factors of epilepsy in MOGAD.Methods:Eighty-nine patients with MOGAD diagnosed at the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University between October 2019 and May 2023 were enrolled and classified into 2 groups upon MOGAD with ( n=29) or without epilepsy ( n=60). The Expanded Disability Status Scale (EDSS) and Clinical Assessment Scale for Autoimmune Encephalitis (CASE) were used for evaluation of severity, and EDSS or CASE scores on the 30th day after first-line immunotherapy initiation lower than that on admission were defined as well treatment responsiveness. The differences of general data, clinical manifestations, cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and peripheral blood biochemical examination results, and immunotherapy reactivity between the 2 groups were thoroughly explicated. In addition, the risk factors of epilepsy in MOGAD were analyzed by univariate and multivariate Logistic regression analysis. Results:Compared with patients with MOGAD without epilepsy, patients with MOGAD with epilepsy were characterized by lower age of onset [24.5(10.3, 34.0) years vs 11.0(6.5, 20.0) years, Z=-2.348, P=0.019], higher percentage of male patients [43.3%(26/60) vs 75.9%(22/29), χ 2=8.326, P=0.004], higher virus infection rate [28.3%(17/60) vs 51.7%(15/29), χ 2=4.645, P=0.031], higher incidence of prodromal symptoms [11.7%(7/60) vs 34.5%(10/29), χ 2=6.586, P=0.010], higher blood-brain barrier breakdown rate [35.0%(21/60) vs 58.6%(17/29), χ 2=4.458, P=0.035], higher percentage of CSF albumin level>450 mg/L [48.3%(29/60) vs 75.9%(22/29), χ 2=6.056, P=0.014] and higher creatine kinase level [45.50(28.50, 69.75) U/L vs 57.50(41.75, 97.25) U/L, Z=-2.349, P=0.019]; more epilepsy [0(0) vs 29/29 (100.0%), χ 2=89.000, P<0.001] and disturbance of consciousness [0(0) vs 6/29(20.7%), χ 2=10.224, P=0.001] as clinical manifestations, and more cerebral cortex lesions [30/60(50.0%) vs 25/29(86.2%), χ 2=10.856, P=0.001] on magnetic resonance imaging. Nevertheless, the patients with MOGAD without epilepsy were featured with more visual impairment [23/60(38.3%) vs 3/29(10.3%), χ 2=7.406, P=0.007], limb weakness [18/60(30.0%) vs 1/29(3.4%), χ 2=8.209, P=0.004], sensory disturbance [15/60(25.0%) vs 0(0), Fisher exact probability test, P=0.002] and more cervical cord lesions [22/60(36.7%) vs 4/29(13.8%), χ 2=4.946, P=0.026] on magnetic resonance imaging. Immunotherapy responsiveness was relatively poor in the MOGAD with epilepsy group [EDSS score lower than that on admission: 15/29(51.7%) vs 46/60(76.7%), χ 2=5.641, P=0.018; CASE score lower than that on admission: 16/29(55.2%) vs 47/60(78.3%), χ 2=5.072, P=0.024] compared with the MOGAD without epilepsy group. Male was the independent risk factor of epilepsy in MOGAD ( OR=7.078, 95% CI 1.709-29.326, P=0.007). Conclusions:Compared with patients with MOGAD without epilepsy, patients with MOGAD with epilepsy reported more male patients, lower age of onset and higher incidence of prodromal symptoms, blood-brain barrier dysfunction rate, virus infection rate, CSF albumin level and creatine kinase level; clinical phenotypes were mainly meningoencephalitis and more cerebral cortex lesions were shown on magnetic resonance imaging. MOGAD with epilepsy was closely related to poor immunotherapy responsiveness, and gender was found to be the independent risk factor for epilepsy in MOGAD.

【Objective】 To investigate the clinical efficacy and safety of transurethral blue laser vaporescetion of the prostate in the treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). 【Methods】 The clinical data of 100 BPH patients undergoing the surgery in our hospital during May and Sep.2022 were retrospectively analyzed. The observations included operation time, bladder irrigation duration, postoperative catheter indwelling time, hospital stay, complications, as well as changes in hemoglobin, International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS), Quality of Life Scale (QoL) score, maximum urinary flow rate (Qmax), bladder residual urine volume (PVR), and other related indicators before and 3 months after surgery. 【Results】 All 100 procedures were successfully completed without turning to transurethral resection of the prostate and/or open surgery. No blood transfusion was needed. The operation time was (37.8±19.6) min, bladder irrigation time (1.3±0.5) d, catheter indwelling time (12.7±0.4) d, hospital stay (3.4±0.7) d, hemoglobin drop (4.1±7.1) g/L. The postoperative IPSS and QoL score were significantly lower than those before surgery (P<0.05); postoperative Qmax was higher than that before surgery (P<0.05); postoperative PVR was smaller than that before surgery (P<0.05). Urinary retention occurred in 4 cases (4%) after removal of the catheter; carnal hematuria and bladder clot formation occurred in 3 cases (3%); mixed urinary incontinence occurred in 2 cases (2%); stenosis of the external urethra occurred in 2 cases (2%). All complications were cured after symptomatic treatment. There were no serious perioperative complications, no intraoperative complications such as ureteral orifice injury or bladder perforation, and no serious postoperative complications such as transurethral resection syndrome (TURS), permanent urinary incontinence or bladder neck contracture. 【Conclusion】 The blue laser surgical system had satisfactory effects of vaporization and hemostasia. Transurethral blue laser vaporesection of the prostate is safe and effective in the treatment of BPH.

Objective:To investigate the efficacy and safety of modified Bikini approach periacetabular osteotomy in the treatment of developmental hip dysplasia under 50 years of age.Methods:The clinical data of 39 patients with developmental hip dysplasia who underwent periacetabular osteotomy in the Department of Orthopedics, Guizhou Provincial People′s Hospital from June 2016 to June 2021 were retrospectively analyzed.Among them, 20 patients (21 hips) underwent the improved Bikini approach (study group) and 19 patients (20 hips) underwent the improved Smith-Petersen approach (control group).In the study group, there were 3 males and 17 females, aged( M(IQR))27.5 (14.3) years (range:11 to 44 years).In the control group, there were 2 males and 17 females, aged 27.5 (19.3) years (range:17 to 47 years).Both groups were sutured in the same manner by the same physician.Incision length, operation time, intraoperative blood loss and complications were recorded.X-ray images, anterior central marginal angle (ACE), lateral central marginal Angle (LCE) and acetabulum tilt angle (Tonnis AI) were measured before and after the operation.The coverage rate of acetabulum to femoral head (AHI) was measured and calculated, and the healing time was observed.Harris Hip score, International Hip score (IHOT)-12 and visual analogue scale (VAS) were recorded before and after surgery.Vancouver Scar Scale (VSS) score and patient and observer scar assessment scale (POSAS) score were recorded 12 months after surgery.The independent sample t test,Wilcoxon rank sum test, χ2 test or Fisher exact test was used to compare the clinical efficacy between the two groups, respectively. Results:All patients successfully completed the operation.There was no significant difference in operation time and intraoperative blood loss between the two groups (all P>0.05).The incision length of the study group was smaller than that of the control group, and the difference was statistically significant (10.5(5.0)cm vs.15.0(3.0), W=309.000, P=0.007).Patients were followed up for (19.1±11.1) months (range:12 to 60 months).Femoral nerve stretching injury occurred in 2 cases and sciatic branch fracture occurred in 1 case in the study group, all of which recovered to normal at 3 months follow-up, while no corresponding injury occurred in the control group.Lateral femoral cutaneous nerve injury occurred in 3 cases in the study group and 2 cases in the control group.Delayed wound healing occurred in 1 case in each of the two groups, and both healed after re-operation debridement and suture.Pubic branch nonunion occurred in 4 patients in the study group and 5 patients in the control group.There were no serious complications such as sciatic nerve and femoral blood vessel injury between the 2 groups, and there was no statistical significance in the incidence of complications between the 2 groups (52.4%(11/21) vs.40.0%(8/20), χ2=0.631, P=0.427).The clinical healing time of the patient was (4.5±1.3) months after surgery (range:3.0 to 8.0 months).There were no significant differences in ACE, LCE, Tonnis AI and AHI between the 2 groups (all P>0.05).At the last follow-up, there were no significant differences in VAS,Harris hip score and IHOT-12 score between the two groups (all P>0.05).The incision scars in the study group were smaller than those in the control group, and the differences in VSS and POSAS were statistically significant (all P<0.05). Conclusion:Compared with the improved Smith-Petersen approach, the improved Bikini approach has the same early clinical efficacy in the treatment of patients with developmental hip dysplasia under the age of 50, and has the advantages of smaller postoperative incision scars, more hidden and beautiful incision, and no serious complications, which is worthy of further study and promotion.

Objective:To summarize the clinical and imaging characteristics of anti-metabotropic glutamate receptor 5 (mGluR5) encephalitis, and improve clinicians' understanding of this encephalitis.Methods:The clinical data of one patient with anti-mGluR5 encephalitis admitted to our hospital from December 2020 were analyzed, and the data of 13 patients with anti-mGluR5 encephalitis reported in domestic and foreign databases were summarized and analyzed.Results:The main symptoms of 14 patients with anti-mGluR5 encephalitis included mental and behavior disorder (13/14), cognitive dysfunction (11/14), sleep dysfunction (9/14), seizures (8/14), decreased level of consciousness (6/14) and motor disorders (4/14). Four patients had abnormal brain MRI, including hyperintensity in the right mesial temporal lobe on T2 sequences, hyperintensity in the bilateral upper pons on T2 sequences, hyperintensity in the bilateral posterior parietal-occipital cortex on FLAIR sequences, and hyperintensity in the bilateral frontal lobes, right occipital lobe and cerebellum on T2/FLAIR sequences. Six patients had Hodgkin's lymphoma. Treatments included immunotherapy and oncologic therapy. Relapse was noted in 3 of the 14 patients, and symptoms improved significantly after immunotherapy. Except for one patient who died in hospital, 6 patients showed complete recovery and 7 patients showed partial recovery at the last follow-up (median 20 months).Conclusions:Anti-mGluR5 encephalitis is rare autoimmune encephalitis whose symptoms are not limited to the limbic system, and relapse may occur; immunotherapy has good effects; Hodgkin's lymphoma is often associated in these patients.

ObjectiveTo evaluate the effect of standardized blood pressure measurement in consulting room (SBPM) model on blood pressure screening of non-hypertensive patients in community. MethodsFour communities were randomly selected from Fengxian District of Shanghai, and non-hypertensive patients in the communities were included for screening. Based on the communities, participants were further classified into the intervention group and control group. A one-year intervention study was conducted from January 1, 2021 to December 31, 2021. The intervention group received the intervention measures of standardized measurement, and the control group remained the routine measurement. The distribution of blood pressure values and last digit of the values between the intervention group and control group were tested using Chi-square test and normality test. Then changes in abnormal blood pressure rate before and after the intervention were determined by double difference method. Statistical analysis was performed using SPSS 20.0. ResultsA total of 15 368 participants were included in the intervention group, and 19 811 participants in the control group. After the intervention, range of the last digit of blood pressure values in the intervention group was 9.55%‒10.41%, of which that of systolic and diastolic blood pressure were equally distributed (P=0.932 and 0.871, respectively). The range of the last digit in the control group was 1.31%‒42.58%, of which that of systolic and diastolic blood pressure showed unequal distribution (P<0.001). Through one-year standardized measurement intervention, the abnormal rate of blood pressure in the intervention group was 26.29%, which was 7.61 times as high as that in the control group (OR=7.55, 95%CI: 6.75‒8.57, P<0.001). ConclusionStandardized blood pressure measurement in consulting room is suitable for the screening of blood pressure measurement in community, which has higher data quality than that of routine measurement.

Patients with small-cell lung cancer (SCLC) relapse within months after completing previous therapies. This study aimed to investigate the efficacy and safety of anlotinib as third- or further-line therapy in patients with short-term relapsed SCLC from ALTER1202. Patients with short-term relapsed SCLC (disease progression within 3 months after completing ⩾ two lines of chemotherapy) in the anlotinib (n = 67) and placebo (n = 34) groups were analyzed. The primary endpoint was progression-free survival (PFS). The secondary endpoints included overall survival, objective response rate (ORR), disease control rate, and safety. Anlotinib significantly improved median PFS/OS (4.0 vs. 0.7 months, P < 0.0001)/(7.3 vs. 4.4 months, P = 0.006) compared with placebo. The ORR was 4.5%/2.9% in the anlotinib/placebo group (P = 1.000). The DCR in the anlotinib group was higher than that in the placebo group (73.1% vs. 11.8%, P < 0.001). The most common adverse events (AEs) were hypertension (38.8%), loss of appetite (28.4%), and fatigue (22.4%) in the anlotinib group and gammaglutamyl transpeptidase elevation (20.6%) in the placebo group. No grade 5 AEs occurred. For patients with short-term relapsed SCLC, third- or further-line anlotinib treatment was associated with improved survival benefit. Further studies are warranted in this regard.

Objective To compare the surgical results of ultrasound-guided percutaneous antegrade or retrograde therapy in the treatment of patent ductus arteriosus. Methods The clinical data of 166 patients (44 males and 122 females) who underwent transthoracic echocardiography guided closure of patent ductus arteriosus in Xinjiang Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease Hospital from February 2016 to August 2020 were retrospectively analyzed, and the patients were divided into two groups: an antegrade group (n=60) and a retrograde group (n=106). The operation time, success rate, bed rest time, postoperative complications and surgical safety were compared between the two groups. Results The immediate success rate of the two groups was 100.0%. Compared with the retrograde group, the antegrade group had shorter time of bed rest and hospital stay, but longer operation time. In the retrograde group, there were 2 patients of complications, including occlusive device falling off to pulmonary artery 12 hours after the operation in 1 patient, and false arterial tumor in 1 patient. Both groups were followed up for 3-18 months, and there was no death in the whole group. Conclusion It is safe and effective to block patent ductus arteriosus under the guidance of transthoracic echocardiography. Although the operation process of anterior occlusion of patent ductus arteriosus is slightly complex and the operation time is long, the indication is wide, and the bed rest time is short. Therefore it can be used as the first choice for patent ductus arteriosus occlusion.
