BACKGROUND:Cistanoside A has the effects of anti-inflammation,antioxidation,antioxidation,reducing renal damage and anti-osteoporosis,but its effect on osteoclast differentiation,function and its underlying molecular mechanisms remain unclear. OBJECTIVE:To investigate the effect of Cistanoside A on osteoclast differentiation and bone resorption induced by receptor activator of nuclear factor kappa-B ligand(RANKL)in vitro and its mechanism. METHODS:Bone marrow macrophages were obtained from the femur and tibia of 4-6-week-old C57BL/6 mice.The cytotoxic effect of Cistanoside A(5,10,20,40,80,and 160 μmol/L)on bone marrow macrophage viability was examined using the cell counting kit-8 assay kit.Tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase staining was performed to observe the effect of different concentrations of Cistanoside A on osteoblast differentiation and its effective intervention concentration was determined.There was positive control group,Cistanoside A low,medium,and high dose groups(40,80,and 160 μmol/L).After cell attachment,50 ng/mL RANKL was added to induce osteoblast differentiation,and the corresponding dose of Cistanoside A was added to the Cistanoside A low,medium,and high dose groups,respectively.F-actin ring and 2-(4-Amidinophenyl)-6-indolecarbamidine dihydrochloride staining were performed to detect the effects of Cistanoside A on the formation of osteoclasts.Toluidine blue staining of bone abrasion slices was used to observe the effects of Cistanoside A on bone resorption function of osteoclasts.The expression of upstream and downstream proteins of the JNK/MAPK pathway was detected by Western blot.The expression of genes related to osteoclast differentiation and bone resorption function such as tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase,DC-STAMP,Nfatc-1,Ctsk and c-Fos was detected by RT-qPCR. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase staining,F-actin ring staining and resorption pit assay showed that Cistanoside A significantly inhibited RANKL-induced osteoclast differentiation and bone resorption in a dose-dependent manner compared with the positive control group.The results of RT-qPCR showed that compared with the positive control group,both high and low dose groups of Cistanoside A could significantly downregulate the mRNA expression of tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase,DC-STAMP,Nfatc-1,Ctsk and c-Fos in a dose-dependent manner.The results of western blot assay showed that the high dose group of Cistanoside A significantly inhibited the expression of p-JNK protein at 10,20,30 and 60 minutes of intervention;compared with the positive control group,Cistanoside A significantly inhibited the expression of Nfatc1 and c-Fos proteins in a dose-dependent manner.To conclude,Cistanoside A could inhibit the formation and bone resorption of osteoclasts by reducing the level of p-JNK protein,inhibiting the activation of MAPK pathway and the expression of key genes in osteoclasts.

Objective:To investigate the prevalence and potential classification of symptoms after total knee arthroplasty (TKA) in patients with knee osteoarthritis (KOA), and to analyze the differences in demographic characteristics and surgical data, compare the different potential subgroups, in order to provide a basis for clinical symptom management plans.Methods:This study was a multicenter cross-sectional survey. Through convenience sampling, patients with KOA undergoing TKA in the orthopaedic wards of four tertiary hospitals in Urumqi were selected as the study from November 2023 to February 2024. The study subjects were surveyed using a general information questionnaire, the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) for pain, the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS), and the Pitts Burgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI), and the degree of postoperative joint swelling and size of ecchymosis were measured. Latent class analysis was performed using Mplus 8.3 software, and Logistic regression analysis was conducted using SPSS 26.0 software to explore the influencing factors of the latent classes.Results:Totally 337 effective questionnaires were collected, and the recovery rate was 94.7% (337/356), and the age distribution ranged from 47 to 85 (65.19 ± 6.99) years old, with 90 (26.7%) males and 247 (73.3%) females. There were 92.3% (311/337) of TKA patients with postoperative symptom cluster. The symptom cluster of patients with TKA were identified as 3 classes. They were named as "high level pain-psychological disorder group"(12.5%, 39/311), "high bruises-moderate psychological disorders group"(25.4%, 79/311) and "low symptom burden group" (62.1%, 193/311). The results of the unordered multi-class logistic regression analysis showed that age 45-59 years ( OR = 2.367), body mass index 24.0-27.9 kg/m 2 ( OR = 0.207), living with children/parents ( OR = 6.473), and this being the second joint surgery ( OR = 0.040) were the factors influencing the "high level pain-psychological disorders group" (all P<0.05). The factors influencing the "high bruises-moderate psychological disorders group" were living with children/parents ( OR = 4.023), comorbid chronic diseases ( OR = 1.979, 3.842), and intraoperative blood loss ≤100 ml ( OR = 2.342) (all P<0.05). Conclusions:The postoperative symptom cluster of TKA patients have a relatively high incidence, and there is heterogeneity within the symptom cluster, so nurses need to identify at-risk patients early according to the characteristics of different categories and give interventions.

The laparoscopic vision platform developed from the prototype of candlelight reflector device to HD, 3D and 4K ultra HD, which revolutionized surgery from open surgery to minimally invasive surgery. With the continuous application in gastric cancer surgery, the importance of laparoscopy in radical gastrectomy is gradually recognized. Radical gastrectomy mainly includes lymph node dissection and digestive tract reconstruction. The reconstruction of digestive tract after radical gastrectomy for distal gastric cancer has been a hot topic of discussion and research, which is directly related to the incidence of postoperative complications, nutritional status and quality of life. This paper mainly discusses the Roux-en-Y digestive tract reconstruction of radical gastrectomy for distal gastric cancer with 4K laparoscopic.

According to the current evidence-based medicine researches, the eastern and western countries have reached a consensus that D2 operation is a standardized procedure for advanced gastric cancer.However, the postoperative five-year survival rate is still not satisfactory. Professor Gong Jianping of Tongji Hospital, Tongji Medical Gollege of Huazhong University of Science and Technology proposed a theory of membrane anatomy (the third element of surgical anatomy) and the concept of cancer leakage—an epoch-making concept in surgical anatomy. The Department of Gastrointestinal Surgery, The Affiliated Hospital of Guizhou Medical University was honored to be selected as one of the first domestic replication units of 3D laparoscopic radical gastrectomy under membrane anatomy. Professor Gong Jianping has visited our hospital several times for surgical demonstration, explanation of membrane anatomy theory and replication training. Through the understanding of membrane anatomy theory, we found that 3D laparoscopic radical gastrectomy guided by membrane anatomy can achieve good results, e.g less bleeding, complete resection, complete lymph node dissection and avoidance of side damage, meanwhile the operation is simple and safe. At the same time, it can avoid the shedding of cancer cells, so as to reduce the iatrogenic leakage of cancer and improve the efficacy of radical gastrectomy. In addition, the standardized procedure of laparoscopic radical gastrectomy makes it scientific, reproducible and easy to be popularized.

Objective    To evaluate the effect of fast track surgery (FTS) after esophageal cancer surgery. Methods    The randomized controlled trial (RCT) and observational studies about FTS for esophageal cancer in PubMed、EMbase、The Cochrane Library、Web of Science、CBM、CNKI and WanFang databases were searched up to May 2017. Then the studies were screened according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria by two researchers. Data were analyzed by Stata12.0 software. Results     Totally 13 RCTs and 5 observational studies with 2 447 patients were eligible for analysis. Compared with the control group, incidence of postoperative complications (OR=0.53, 95%CI 0.40 to 0.71, P<0.05) significantly reduced in the FTS group, but there was no significant difference between the two groups in readmission rate (OR=1.21, 95%CI 0.83 to 1.76, P=0.313) and 30 d mortality rate (OR=0.72, 95%CI 0.43 to 1.20, P=0.207). Conclusion    FTS can safely and effectively accelerate the recovery of patients with esophageal cancer and it owns important clinical values.

Objective: To investigate the clinical value of endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS) and Multi-slice Spiral CT (MSCT) in the preoperativestaging of tumor(T) and lymph node (N) metastasis in patients with SiewertⅡand Ⅲ typeadenocarcinoma of esophagogastric junction(AEG). Methods: Clinical data of 145 Siewert Ⅱ and Ⅲ type AEG patientswithout preoperative chemoradiotherapy were retrospectively reviewed. Theyall received preoperative EUS and MSCT examination and underwent surgical resection, and the results of EUS and MSCT were compared with their postoperative pathologic staging. Results: The sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy of EUS for T stage in Siewert Ⅱ and Ⅲ type AEG were higher than those of MSCT. The total accuracy of EUS and MSCT were 90.3% and 63.5%, respectively, and the difference was statistically significant (χ²=29.52, P<0.01). The sensitivity of EUS for T1, T2 and T3 were 89.5%, 91.1% and 85.2%, respectively, which were significantly higher than 42.1%, 66.7% and 29.6% of MSCT (χ²=9.47, P<0.01 for T1; χ²=8.07, P<0.01 for T2; χ²=17.40, P<0.01 for T3). In addition, the total accuracy of EUS and MSCT for lymph node metastasis status of Siewert Ⅱ and Ⅲ type AEG were 75.9% and 64.8%, respectively, showing a statistically significant difference(χ²=4.23, P=0.04). The sensitivity of EUS for N1 and N2 were 82.1% and 79.2%, respectively, which were significantly higher than 53.6% and 60.4% of MSCT (χ²=5.24, P=0.02; χ²=4.48, P=0.03). There was no statistical significance for sensitivity of EUS and MSCT in N0 and N3 (P>0.05). Conclusion EUS diagnosis of T and N staging in Siewert Ⅱ/Ⅲ type AEG showed significantly greater performance than MSCT.

We presented a new method for vessel segmentation and vascular structure recognition for coronary angiographic images. During vessel segmentation, a new vessel function was proposed to attain vessel feature map. Then the region growing algorithm was implemented with an automatic selection of seed point, extraction of main vessel branch, and vessel detail repairing. In the algorithm of vascular structure recognition, a fuzzy operator was used, which can detect the structures of vascular segments, bifurcations, crosses, and tips. The experimental results indicated that there was about 5 percent larger vessel region which was extracted by the proposed segmentation method than that by the simple region growing algorithm, and several thinner vessels were resumed from the lower gray region. The results also indicated that the fuzzy operator could correctly infer the simulative and real vessel structure with 100% and 90.59% correctness rate on the average, respectively.
