ObjectiveTo investigate the therapeutic effect and mechanism of modified Chunzetang on bladder fibrosis and detrusor function in rats with neurogenic bladder urinary retention induced by spinal cord injury. MethodsIn this study， an improved Hassan Shaker spinal cord transection method was used to establish a model of neurogenic bladder urinary retention induced by spinal cord injury， and rats with a spinal cord injury behavior score of 0 were selected for follow-up experiments. The selected rats were randomly divided into a model group （normal saline gavage）， low-dose traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） group （gavage of 14.4 g·kg^-1 modified Chunzetang）， high-dose TCM group （gavage of 28.8 g·kg^-1 modified Chunzetang）， positive drug group ［intraperitoneal injection of 0.05 g·kg^-1 nuclear transcription factor-κB （NF-κB） inhibitor pyrrolidine dithiocarbamate （PDTC）］， and combination group （intraperitoneal injection of 0.05 g·kg^-1 PDTC + gavage of 28.8 g·kg^-1 modified Chunzetang）. The rats in these groups were administrated with corresponding drugs once a day for four weeks. The BL-420s biofunction acquisition system was used in the experiment to calculate the urodynamic indexes， and the isolated bladder was quickly weighed. The detrusor traction experiment was used to record the minimum bladder contraction tension and frequency in each group. The pathological morphology and tissue fibrosis of detrusor in each group observed by Hematoxycin-eosin （HE） staining and Masson staining were compared. The expression level of α-smooth muscle actin （α-SMA） was detected by immunohistochemistry. Western blot was used to detect the protein expression of NF-κB p65， nuclear transcription factor-κB suppressor protein α （IκBα）， transforming growth factor-β₁ （TGF-β₁）， type Ⅰ collagen （ColⅠ）， and type Ⅲ collagen （ColⅢ） in bladder tissue of rats in each group. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay （ELISA） was used to detect the changes in serum levels of IL-6， IL-1β， and TNF-α. ResultsCompared with that in the sham operation group， the pressure at the urinary leakage point in the model group decreased （P<0.01）， and the bladder mass， bladder contractile tension， maximum bladder capacity， and bladder compliance increased （P<0.05，P<0.01）. HE staining showed that the arrangement of bladder epithelial cells was disordered， and the pathological manifestations such as mucosa and myometria neutrophil infiltration were obvious. The lamina propria structure was destroyed， and the muscle fiber arrangement was disordered. The interstitial widening and tissue edema were obvious. Masson staining showed that the bladder wall of the model group had more collagen fiber deposition， and the degree of detrusor fibrosis was more severe. The content of detrusor in the visual field was reduced. At the same time， the protein expressions of NF-κB p65， TGF-β₁， IκBα， ColⅠ， and ColⅢ in bladder tissue of rats in the model group were significantly increased （P<0.01）， and the serum levels of IL-6， IL-1β， and TNF-α were significantly increased （P<0.05）. Compared with that in the model group， the pressure at the urinary leakage point in the modified Chunzetang and positive drug groups was increased （P<0.05）， and the wet bladder weight， minimum bladder contractile tension， maximum bladder capacity， and bladder compliance were restored （P<0.05， P<0.01）. HE and Masson showed that the bladder epithelial cells were relatively neatly arranged， and the structure of the bladder lamina propria was relatively stable. The detrusor bundles were arranged in an orderly manner， and the interstitium was narrow. The degree of tissue edema was relatively low， and the degree of bladder detrusor fibrosis in the modified Chunzetang and positive drug groups was reduced， while the degree of bladder detrusor fibrosis in the positive drug group and combination groups was not obvious. The results of Western blot showed that the expression of NF-κB p65， IκBα， TGF-β₁， ColⅠ， and ColⅢ in bladder tissue， as well as the serum levels of IL-6， IL-1β， and TNF-α in modified Chunzetang and positive drug groups were significantly lower， and the expression of bladder tissue-related proteins and the serum levels of IL-6， IL-1β， and TNF-α in the TCM groups decreased significantly with the increase in dose （P<0.05）. The results of immunohistochemistry suggested that modified Chunzetang could fully affect the expression of α-SMA in bladder tissue. ConclusionModified Chunzetang can inhibit collagen deposition in bladder tissue of rats with urinary retention induced by spinal cord injury， delay the occurrence and development of bladder fibrosis， and protect the normal contractile function of bladder detrusor， and its mechanism may be related to inhibiting the NF-κB/TGF-β₁ signaling pathway， reducing the production of NF-κB p65， IκBα， TGF-β₁， ColⅠ， ColⅢ， and other related proteins， and protecting the muscle strength of detrusor.

BACKGROUND:Preliminary clinical observations found that Jiawei Chunze Decoction is an effective formula for clinical treatment of urinary retention after spinal cord injury.Animal experiments have found that the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase/protein kinase B(PI3K/Akt)signaling pathway is closely related to the degree of bladder dysfunction. OBJECTIVE:To further investigate the effects of Jiawei Chunze Decoction on bladder function and PI3K/Akt signaling pathway in rats with urinary retention. METHODS:Sixty female Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into sham operation group,model group,Jiawei Chunze Decoction low-dose group,Jiawei Chunze Decoction high-dose group and agonist group.In the sham operation group,the spinal cord was exposed but not transected.In the other groups,the modified Hassan Shaker spinal cord transection method was used to prepare the model of sacral medullary injury.At 24 hours after modeling,the sham operation group and model group were intragastrically given equal volume of normal saline,Jiawei Chunze Decoction low-dose and high-dose groups were given Jiawei Chunze Decoction granules containing 14.4 and 28.8 g/kg,respectively,via intragastric administration for 4 weeks,and the agonist group was treated with an intraperitoneal injection of PI3K/Akt signaling pathway agonist 740Y-P at a dose of 0.02 mg/kg.After 4 weeks of treatment,the maximum bladder capacity,leakage point pressure and bladder compliance of rats in each group were detected by urine flow dynamics.The minimum bladder contraction tension and frequency of rats in each group were detected by detrusor pull test.The pathological changes of the rat bladder in each group were observed by hematoxylin-eosin staining.The concentrations of GRP78,CHOP and Caspase-12 in serum were detected by ELISA,and the mRNA and protein expressions of PI3K,Akt,GRP78,CHOP and Caspase-12 in bladder tissues were detected by RT-PCR and western blot,respectively. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Compared with the sham operation group,the maximum bladder volume,bladder compliance and minimum systolic tension of rats in the model group were increased(P<0.05),and the leakage point pressure and bladder contraction frequency were decreased(P<0.05);serum GRP78,CHOP,and Caspase-12 levels were also increased(P<0.05).The arrangement of bladder epithelial cells in the model group was disordered,and there was monocyte infiltration between cells,tissue edema,and detrusor tract atrophy.The mRNA and protein expressions of PI3K and Akt in bladder tissues were significantly decreased in the model group compared with the sham operation group,while those of GRP78,CHOP and Caspase-12 were increased(P<0.05).Compared with the model group,the maximum bladder volume,bladder compliance and minimum systolic tension of rats were decreased in the Jiawei Chunze Decoction low-dose,high-dose and agonist groups after 4 weeks of intervention(P<0.05),while the leakage point pressure and bladder contraction frequency were increased(P<0.05);serum GRP78,CHOP,Caspase-12 levels were decreased(P<0.05).The bladder epithelial cells in the three intervention groups were distributed evenly,arranged neatly,with less inflammatory cell infiltration and fuller detrusor muscle bundle.Compared with the model group,the mRNA and protein expressions of PI3K and Akt were increased in the three intervention groups,while those of GRP78,CHOP and Caspase-12 were decreased(P<0.05).The Jiawei Chunze Decoction high-dose group was better than the Jiawei Chunze Decoction low-dose group and shared the similar results with the agonist group.To conclude,Jiawei Chunze Decoction can improve the bladder function of rats with urinary retention after spinal cord injury,and the mechanism may be related to reducing the occurrence of endoplasmic reticulum stress in bladder tissue through the PI3K/Akt signaling pathway,and then alleviating apoptosis.

BACKGROUND:Targeted therapy based on nuclear transcription factor kappa B signaling pathway to explore neuroinflammation is increasingly worth exploring,and the advantages of Chinese medicine such as many targets,wide range,rich mechanisms,and few side effects have great potential in the treatment of various diseases. OBJECTIVE:Based on the nuclear transcription factor kappa B signaling pathway,this paper systematically expounded and summarized the research progress of kaempferol,safflower yellow,baicalin,and triptolide in the treatment of neuroinflammation after spinal cord injury. METHODS:Search terms"spinal cord injury,inflammation,anti-inflammatory,traditional Chinese medicine monomer,monomeric compound,NF-κB signaling pathway,flavonoids,glycosides,phenols,esters,alkaloids"were searched in CNKI and PubMed databases.Totally 67 articles were finally included. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)The role of nuclear transcription factor kappa B signaling pathway in the nervous system is complex and diverse,which can regulate neutrophils,microglia,astrocytes,and macrophages,and mediate the occurrence and development of inflammation after injury.(2)The effects of traditional Chinese medicine monomers such as baicalin on the degradation of nuclear transcription factor kappa B inhibitory protein,the inhibition of phosphorylation process by safflowerin on nuclear transcription factor kappa B signaling pathway,and the inhibition of kaempferol on nuclear transcription factor kappa B signaling pathway p65 nuclear translocation can reduce the impact of inflammatory response on the body,thereby promoting the recovery of neurological function.(3)The nuclear transcription factor kappa B signaling pathway can promote inflammation and immune cell migration and activation in the early stage of injury,and can promote the repair of injury site and the occurrence of fibrosis in the middle and late stages of injury.Appropriate activation of the nuclear transcription factor kappa B signaling pathway can promote the release of inflammatory factors,improve the antioxidant capacity of cells,and promote the activation of immune cells,but the over-activated nuclear transcription factor kappa B signaling pathway can easily lead to the occurrence and continuation of chronic inflammation and the inhibition of apoptosis.(4)Future research can further explore how to accurately regulate the activation level of nuclear transcription factor kappa B signaling pathway,how to achieve precise intervention for nervous system inflammation and injury,and can also focus on the preparation of traditional Chinese medicine monomers and the mechanism of action of traditional Chinese medicine monomers on signaling pathways,in order to provide more effective treatment strategies for the rehabilitation and functional recovery of neurological diseases.

ObjectiveTo observe the effects of Tongmai Kaiqiao pills on AMP-activated protein kinase （AMPK）/peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma coactivator-1α （PGC-1α） signaling pathway and mitochondrial biogenesis in hippocampal tissue of rats with vascular cognitive impairment （VCI） and to investigate the potential mechanism of Tongmai Kaiqiao pills in improving cognitive impairment in rats with VCI. MethodsTwelve of 72 male SD rats were selected as the sham operation group， and the remaining rats were modelled using the modified 2VO method. The rats that were successfully modelled were divided into the model group， the high-dose group of Tongmai Kaiqiao pills （27.6 g·kg^-1）， the low-dose group of Tongmai Kaiqiao pills （13.8 g·kg^-1）， the combination group （27.6 g·kg^-1 Tongmai Kaiqiao pills + 25 mg·kg^-1 dorsomorphin）， and the donepezil hydrochloride group （0.45 g·kg^-1） according to the random number table method. After four weeks of continuous intraperitoneal injection of the corresponding drugs， the Morris water maze test was used to test the learning and memory ability of rats. Hematoxylin-eosin （HE） staining and Nissl staining were used to detect pathological changes in the hippocampus of the rats. The content of mitochondrial adenosine triphosphate （ATP） in the brain hippocampus was detected by colorimetry， and reactive oxygen species （ROS） level was detected in rat mitochondria by MitoSOX Red assay. Mitochondrial DNA copy number was detected by real-time fluorescent quantitative PCR （Real-time PCR）. Pathological changes in mitochondria were observed by transmission electron microscopy （TEM）， and AMPK， PGC-1α， phosphorylated AMP-activated protein kinase （p-AMPK）， nuclear respiratory factor 1 （Nrf1）， and mitochondrial transcription factor A （TFAM） protein expression in the hippocampus of the rats were detected by Western blot. ResultsCompared with those in the sham operation group， rats in the model group had a reduced number of platform crossings （P<0.01）， significantly prolonged evasion latency （P<0.01）， disorganized neuronal arrangement in the hippocampal region， widened gaps， and blurred nucleus membrane and nucleolus boundaries. The emergence of necrotic cells was visible. The color of the nissl bodies was light， and the number was reduced with severe loss. Mitochondria were atrophied， and cristae were lost. Severe damage was observed. The content of ROS was increased， and the level of ATP was decreased. mtDNA copy number decreased significantly （P<0.01）， and the protein expression of p-AMPK， PGC-1α， Nrf1， and TFAM decreased （P<0.05， P<0.01）. Compared with those in the model group， rats in the high-dose group of Tongmai Kaiqiao pills and donepezil hydrochloride group showed a shorter time to find the platform （P<0.01）， increased number of platform crossings （P<0.01）， restored mitochondrial morphology and structure of the hippocampal neurons， alleviated neuronal death， increased number of nissl bodies， weaken degree of injury， lower content of ROS， and significantly increased levels of ATP and number of copies of mtDNA （P<0.05， P<0.01）. In addition， there was increased protein expression of p-AMPK， PGC-1α， Nrf1， and TFAM （P<0.05， P<0.01）. Compared with the model group， the evasion latency was shortened in the low-dose group of Tongmai Kaiqiao pills （P<0.01）， and the number of platform crossings was increased， but the difference was not statistically significant. The mitochondria were swollen and deformed， and the cristae became shorter and partially disappeared. The degree of damage did not improve significantly， and the number of nissl bodies was increased but not statistically significant. The ROS content decreased （P<0.01）， but there was no significant difference in ATP level and mtDNA copy number. The protein expression of PGC-1α was increased （P<0.05）， but there was no significant difference in the protein expression of p-AMPK， Nrf1， and TFAM， and the results were not statistically significant. Compared with the donepezil hydrochloride group， there was no significant change in the results of each assay in the high-dose group of Tongmai Kaiqiao pills， and the difference was not statistically significant. Compared with the high-dose group of Tongmai Kaiqiao pills， rats in the combination group had a significantly lower number of platform crossings （P<0.01）， a significantly longer evasion latency （P<0.01）， a reduced number of neuronal cells， disorganized tissue structure， swollen and blurred cell outlines， a significant reduction in the number of nissl bodies. Moreover， there was an increase in the content of ROS， a decrease in the level of ATP and the number of mtDNA copies （P<0.01）， and a decrease in the expression of p-AMPK， PGC-1α， Nrf1， and TFAM （P<0.05）. ConclusionTongmai Kaiqiao pills is able to improve cognitive function in rats by activating the AMPK/PGC-1α signaling pathway， promoting mitochondrial biogenesis， and attenuating pathological damage to neurons in the hippocampal region， thereby demonstrating its therapeutic potential.

ObjectiveTo investigate the effects of modified Chunzetang on urinary retention in rats with spinal cord injury （SCI） and the c-Jun N-terminal kinase/p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase （JNK/p38 MAPK） signaling pathway. MethodBefore modeling， 10 of the 70 female SD rats were randomly selected to assign to the blank group， and 10 to the sham group. The remaining 50 rats were used to prepare a SCI-induced urinary retention model using the spinal cord transection method. The model rats were randomly divided into model group， low-dose modified Chunzetang group， high-dose modified Chunzetang group， and inhibitor group. After modeling， the blank group， sham group， and inhibitor group were given 2 mL of saline by gavage. The high-dose and low-dose groups of modified Chunzetang were given modified Chunzetang at 28.8 g·kg^-1 and 14.4 g·kg^-1 by gavage， respectively. The inhibitor group was injected intraperitoneally with the JNK inhibitor SP600125 twice a week at a dose of 15 mg·kg^-1. All rats were gavaged for a total of 28 days. Urodynamic and bladder muscle tension tests were conducted to evaluate bladder function. Hematoxylin-eosin （HE） staining was performed to observe the morphology of bladder smooth muscle tissue. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay （ELISA） was used to measure the levels of JNK， phosphorylated （p）-p38 MAPK， B cell lymphoma-2 （Bcl-2）， and cysteinyl aspartate-specific proteinase-3 （Caspase-3）. Western blot was used to detect the expression levels of p-JNK， p-p38 MAPK， ETS-like protein-1 （ELK-1）， and activator protein-1 （AP1） in the detrusor muscle. Immunofluorescence was used to detect the expression levels of p-JNK， p-p38 MAPK， and AP1. Terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated dUTP-biotin nick end labeling （TUNEL） assay was conducted to measure cell apoptosis. ResultCompared with blank group and sham group， the model group showed a significant increase in maximum bladder capacity and bladder compliance， and a significant decrease in leak point pressure. The minimum contraction force was increased， and the contraction frequency was significantly decreased （P<0.01）. The structure of bladder smooth muscle was disordered， with a large number of vacuolar cells， tissue edema， mononuclear cell infiltration， obvious hemorrhage， and a trend towards fibrosis in connective tissue. TUNEL positive cells increased significantly. The protein expression levels of p-JNK， p-p38 MAPK， AP1， and ELK-1 were significantly increased （P<0.01）. Compared with model group， all intervention groups showed significant improvement in urodynamic and bladder muscle contraction tests. In the low-dose modified Chunzetang group， the levels of p-p38 MAPK and Caspase-3 was decreased （P<0.05，P<0.01）. The levels of JNK, p-p38 MAPK and Caspase-3 in the high-dose group were significantly decreased （P<0.01）， and the level of Bcl-2 was significantly increased （P<0.01）. The expression levels of p-JNK， p-p38 MAPK， and AP1 proteins were significantly reduced （P<0.01）， and ELK-1 protein expression was decreased （P<0.05）. The positive rate of p-JNK and AP1 receptors was significantly decreased （P<0.01）. The positive cell rate was significantly decreased （P<0.01）. The high-dose modified Chunzetang group was positioned between the low-dose group and the inhibitor group， with no significant difference compared to the inhibitor group. ConclusionModified Chunzetang can improve urinary retention in SCI and enhance the contraction force of bladder smooth muscle. This effect is related to the inhibition of the JNK/p38 MAPK signaling pathway activation， thereby reducing apoptosis of bladder smooth muscle cells.

BACKGROUND:Abnormal extracellular matrix accumulation and excessive proliferation of fibroblasts are the main manifestations of pathological scars.Excessive proliferation of fibroblasts leads to the production of large amounts of collagen-based extracellular matrix.Therefore,to investigate the role of fibroblast fibrosis in the formation of pathological scar will provide a new idea for revealing the mechanism of pathological scar and biological therapy. OBJECTIVE:To investigate the effect of RAS-selective lethal small molecule 3(RSL3)on the fibrosis of human pathological scar fibroblasts. METHODS:Then cases of pathological scar tissue and normal skin tissue samples from the same individuals,provided by the Department of Burn Plastic Surgery,General Hospital of Ningxia Medical University,were collected.Fibroblasts of human pathological scar and human normal skin were extracted and used in the following experiments.The general condition of the pathological scar tissue and the normal skin tissue was detected by hematoxylin-eosin staining.The appearance of fibroblasts from pathological scar and normal skin were observed by inverted microscope.The fibroblasts were verified by immunofluorescence assay.The cells were treated with different concentrations of RSL3(1,3,5,7,9,11,13 μmol/L).The inhibitory concentration of RSL3 on fibroblasts was detected by cell counting kit-8.Control group(without treatment)and RSL3 intervention group(treated with 7 μmol/L RSL3 for 24 hours)were set up.The mRNA and protein expressions of glutathione peroxidase 4,type Ⅰ collagen,type Ⅲ collagen and α-smooth muscle actin were detected by Qrt-PCR and western blot,respectively.Level of malondialdehyde in cells was detected.The residual scratch area was measured by cell scratch test after 24 hours to calculate the percentage of residual scratch area. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The expression of glutathione peroxidase 4 in the pathological scar group was higher than that in the normal skin group(Mrna:t=3.252,P<0.01;protein:t=5.075,P<0.01).The expression of glutathione peroxidase 4 in the pathological scar fibroblast group was higher than that in the normal skin fibroblast group(Mrna:t=10.32,P<0.01;protein:t=26.22,P<0.01).Compared with the control group,the expression of glutathione peroxidase 4 was decreased(Mrna:t=2.798,P<0.05;protein:t=4.643,P<0.01),the content of malondialdehyde was increased(t=2.917,P<0.05),the expression of type Ⅰ collagen(Mrna:t=15.84,P<0.01;protein:t=4.610,P<0.01),type Ⅲ collagen(Mrna:t=28.86,P<0.01;protein:t=7.713,P<0.01)and α-smooth muscle actin(Mrna:t=2.671,P<0.05;protein:t=7.417,P<0.01)were decreased in the RSL3 intervention group.Compared with the control group,the migration ability was weakened in the RSL3 intervention group(t=14.06,P<0.01).To conclude,RSL3 can inhibit the expression of glutathione peroxidase 4 and then inhibit the ability of fibrosis and migration of pathological scar fibroblasts.

Objective To explore the efficacy and safety of using a tourniquet in amputation for lower limb gangrene. Methods All patients underwent amputation for lower limb gangrene from January,2009 to June,2023 in Beijing Bo'ai Hospital were reviewed,involving 41 patients with a total of 44 limbs,and they were divided into non-tourniquet group(n=28)and tourniquet group(n=16)according to whether a tourniquet was used during surgery.The am-putation field clearness,surgical bleeding,incision healing,reoperation rate within 30 days post-operation,intra-operative blood pressure and heart rate,and operation time were compared. Results The amputation field was clearer in the tourniquet group(χ2=42.385,P＜0.001),with less bleeding(Z=-2.082,P＜0.05).No tourniquet-related local damages,such as nerve damage and skin injuries,was observed in the limbs using tourniquets.The incidence of grade A of incision healing was not significantly different(χ2=0.028,P=0.624). Conclusion Application of tourniquet can improve the amputation field clearness and reduce bleeding during amputation for lower limb gangrene,without affecting incision healing.

Objective To analyze the impact of different clinical and rehabilitation characteristics on the prognosis of diabetic foot amputees. Methods Related literatures were searched in CNKI,Wanfang Data,PubMed,Cochrane Library and Google Scholar from establishment to August,2024.The literatures were screened and extracted by two researchers independent-ly,the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale(NOS)and the evaluation criteria recommended by Agency for Healthcare Re-search and Quality(US)were used for quality evaluation,and literatures with above medium quality were includ-ed,and a systematic review was conducted. Results A total of 17 articles involving 9 239 subjects were included,in which three were Chinese,and 14 were English.The study designs were case-control study,cohort study and cross-sectional study.They mainly came from the fields of rehabilitation medicine,orthopedics,sports medicine and disability studies,and were published between 1998 to 2023.Clinical and rehabilitation characteristics related to the prognosis of diabetic foot amputees includ-ed amputation level,socioeconomic determinants(educational attainment,economic status,social participation,etc.),psychological states(anxiety,depression,etc.)and physiological factors(age,gender,pain,prosthetic limb usage,and ambulatory capacity,etc.).These different characteristics could affect the quality of life of diabetic foot amputees,and even lead to re-amputation or death. Conclusion Factors of amputation level,socioeconomic status,psychological status and physiological status are impor-tant for poor prognosis in diabetic foot amputees.Controlling the above factors can effectively reduce the re-am-putation rate and mortality,and improve the quality of life in diabetic foot amputees,thus improving their progno-sis,and promoting functional rehabilitation.

Objective To analyze the factors influencing axillary lymph-node metastasis(ALNM)in microinvasive breast cancer(MIBC)patients,as well as to establish the risk-prediction model of ipsilateral ALNM in MIBC patients.Methods A total of 4475 primary female MIBC diagnosed by pathology from 2010 to 2015 were searched and screened from the SEER database.The obtained data were used to establish a prediction model for ALNM of MIBC.A total of 2266 primary female MIBC patients diagnosed by pathology from 2018 to 2020 in the SEER database were screened as the external validation cohort.The clinicopathological data of the enrolled MIBC patients were collected.Univariate analysis was used to screen out the factors affecting ALNM in MIBC patients.Statistically significant variables in univariate analysis were included in multivariate logistic regression analysis.The independent factors influencing ALNM in MIBC patients were screened out,and a nomogram was established.The area under the curve(AUC)was calculated by plotting the ROC curve.After plotting the calibration curve,the model was evaluated by Hosmer-Lemeshow goodness-of-fit test.Results A total of 309 patients were diagnosed with ipsilateral ALNM among the 6741 MIBC patients,accounting for about 4.58%.Univariate analysis of the modeling group showed that age,ethnicity,histological grade,pathological type,molecular subtype,and lateral side were associated with ALNM in MIBC patients(P<0.05).Results of multivariate analysis showed that the risk of ALNM was higher in MIBC patients≤40 years old,black people,histological grade Ⅱand Ⅲ,and primary right side(P<0.05).Subtype is an independent factor influencing ALNM in MIBC patients.However,the difference in ALNM risk was not statistically significant between the subtype of HR+HER2+,HR-HER2+,HR-HER2-and HR+HER2-subtypes.The AUC of the modeling group was 0.716(95%CI:0.682-0.750),the best cut-off value was 0.045,the sensitivity was 0.733,and the specificity was 0.608.The newly established nomogram model was used for the validation cohort,and its AUC was 0.722(95%CI:0.667-0.777).The P values of the Hosmer-Lemeshow goodness-of-fit test of the calibration curves in the modeling and validation groups exceeded 0.05.Conclusion The risk-prediction model of ALNM in MIBC patients established by the SEER database has good predictive ability and can thus be expected to serve as a reference for clinical practice.

Objective To explore the impact of clinical treatment decisions on the long-term survival of different molecular subtypes of locally advanced breast cancer(LABC),and to promote the development of more effective and individualized treatment regimens for LABC.Methods The cases of LABC diagnosed by pathology from 2010 to 2015 were searched in the database.Breast cancer-specific survival(BCSS)and overall survival(OS)were estimated by plotting Kaplan-Meier curves.The log rank test(Mantel-Cox)was used to analyze the difference between the groups,and the benefit population of LABC was determined after for age,TNM stage,grade,treatment methods.Results The 5-year OS and BCSS were 77.43％and 84.34％in breast-conserving,and 68.03％and 76.90％in mastectomy,respectively.The 5-year OS and BCSS of Luminal A LABC were 79.91％and 87.23％in breast-conserving,and 71.78％and 81.16％in mastectomy,respectively.The 5-year OS and BCSS of Luminal B LABC were 79.30％and 83.14％in breast-conserving,and were 70.37％and 76.92％in mastectomy,respectively.The 5-year OS and BCSS of triple-negative LABC were 60.77％and 68.13％in breast-conserving,and those of mastectomy were 47.13％and 55.94％,respectively.The 5-year OS and BCSS of HER2 positive were 75.42％,82.05％in breast-conserving,and were 67.05％and 75.01％in mastectomy,respectively;The 5-year OS and BCSS of triple-positive LABC were 86.12％and 91.63％in breast-conserving,and 74.54％and 82.56％in mastectomy,respectively.The 5-year OS and BCSS of well differentiated and N0 triple-positive LABC patients with chemotherapy were 88.24％and 76.91％,and those of patients without chmotherapy were 88.24％and 90.91％,respectively(BCSS:P=0.812;OS:P=0.311).Conclusion In the selective population,OS and BCSS of patients with LABC undergoing breast conserving surgery were significantly better than those of mastectomy.When OS and BCSS were compared for different molecular types and stages of LABC,breast-conserving surgery was still superior to total mastectomy.LABC could be considered for highly differentiated,N0 stage Triple positive without chemotherapy.
