ObjectiveTo investigate the feasibility and safety of endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography （ERCP） combined with oral cholangiopancreatography in the treatment of major duodenal papilla gallbladder polyps. MethodsA retrospective analysis was performed for the clinical data of eight patients with choledocholithiasis and gallbladder polyps who underwent ERCP and combined with oral cholangiopancreatography for major duodenal papilla cholecystectomy in Center of Digestive Endoscopy， Jilin People’s Hospital， from May 2022 to June 2024， and related data were collected， including the success rate of surgery， the technical success rate of gallbladder polyp removal， the superselective method of cystic duct， the time of operation， the time of gallbladder polyp removal， and surgical complications. ResultsBoth the success rate of surgery and the technical success rate of gallbladder polyp removal reached 100%， and of all eight patients， three patients used guide wire to enter the gallbladder under direct view， while five patients received oral cholangiopancreatography to directly enter the gallbladder. The time of operation was 51.88±12.34 minutes， and the time of gallbladder polyp removal was 23.13±10.94 minutes. The diameter of gallbladder polyp was 2‍ ‍—‍ ‍8 mm， and pathological examination showed inflammatory polyps in three patients， adenomatous polyps in one patient， and cholesterol polyps in four patients. There were no complications during or after surgery. The patients were followed up for 2‍ ‍—‍ ‍27 months after surgery， and no recurrence of gallbladder polyp was observed. ConclusionOral cholangiopancreatography is technically safe and feasible in endoscopic major duodenal papilla cholecystectomy.

ObjectiveTo investigate the effect of Danggui Shaoyaosan on ferroptosis in the rat model of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease （NAFLD） and explore the underlying mechanism based on the nuclear factor E₂-related factor 2 （Nrf2）/solute carrier family 7 member 11 （SLC7A11）/glutathione peroxidase 4 （GPX4） signaling pathway. MethodsThe sixty SD rats were randomly grouped as follows： control， model， Yishanfu （0.144 g·kg^-1）， and low-， medium-， and high-dose （2.44， 4.88， and 9.76 g·kg^-1， respectively） Danggui Shaoyaosan. A high-fat diet was used to establish the rat model of NAFLD. After 12 weeks of modeling， rats were treated with corresponding agents for 4 weeks. Then， the body weight and liver weight were measured， and the liver index was calculated. At the same time， serum and liver samples were collected. The levels or activities of total cholesterol （TC）， triglycerides （TG）， alanine aminotransferase （ALT）， aspartate aminotransferase （AST）， and Fe²⁺ in the serum and TC， TG， free fatty acids （FFA）， malondialdehyde （MDA）， superoxide dismutase （SOD）， glutathione peroxidase （GPX）， and Fe²⁺ in the liver were measured. Hematoxylin-eosin staining and oil red O staining were employed to observe the pathological changes in the liver. Immunofluorescence was used to assess the reactive oxygen species （ROS） content in the liver. Mitochondrial morphology was observed by transmission electron microscopy. The protein levels of Nrf2， SLC7A11， GPX4， transferrin receptor 1 （TFR1）， and divalent metal transporter 1 （DMT1） in the liver were determined by Western blot. ResultsCompared with the control group， the model group showed increases in the body weight， liver weight， liver index， levels or activities of TC， TG， ALT， AST， and Fe²⁺ in the serum， levels of TC， TG， FFA， MDA， Fe²⁺， and ROS in the liver， and protein levels of TFR1 and DMT1 in the liver （P<0.01）， and decreases in the activities of SOD， GPX and the protein levels of Nrf2， SLC7A11， and GPX4 in the liver （P<0.05， P<0.01）. Meanwhile， the liver tissue in the model group presented steatosis， iron deposition， mitochondrial shrinkage， and blurred or swollen mitochondrial cristae. Compared with the model group， all doses of Danggui Shaoyaosan reduced the body weight， liver weight， liver index， levels or activities of TC， TG， ALT， AST， and Fe²⁺ in the serum， levels of TC， TG， FFA， MDA， Fe²⁺， and ROS in the liver， and protein levels of TFR1 and DMT1 in the liver （P<0.01）， while increasing the activities of SOD and GPX and the protein levels of Nrf2， SLC7A11， and GPX4 in the liver （P<0.01）. Furthermore， Danggui Shaoyaosan alleviated steatosis， iron deposition， and mitochondrial damage in the liver. ConclusionDanggui Shaoyaosan may inhibit lipid peroxidation and ferroptosis by activating the Nrf2/SLC7A11/GPX4 signaling pathway to treat NAFLD.

Neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) presents with a diverse range of symptoms that can affect the skin, bones, eyes, central nervous system, and other organs. This article reports the diagnosis and treatment process of a patient with NF1 complicated by bilateral severe-to-profound sensorineural hearing loss. Genetic testing revealed a heterozygous variant of NF1 NM_ 000267.3: c.4054_ 4058del(p.Ser1352LeufsTer20, supporting the diagnosis of NF1. After thorough evaluation, a right cochlear implantation was performed, yielding satisfactory postoperative results. This case suggests that NF1 patients may exhibit phenotypic heterogeneity and atypicality, providing a reference for clinicians in the diagnosis and treatment of such patients.

Objective To investigate the relationship between the expression of long non-coding RNA C-terminal binding protein 1 antisense RNA2(LncRNA CTBP1-AS2)and microRNA-140-5p(miR-140-5p)levels in nasopharyngeal carcinoma tissues and the radiotherapeutic effect and prognosis.Methods A total of 222 nasopharyngeal carcinoma patients diagnosed in Nantong Cancer Hospital from March 2018 to March 2020 were collected as the nasopharyngeal carcinoma group.The clinical data of these patients were recorded,the radiotherapeutic effect and prognosis were evaluated,and they were grouped into the survival group(n=194)and the death group(n=28).Meanwhile,another 219 patients with nasopharyngeal inflammation were collected as the control group.Correlation between LncRNA CTBP1-AS2 and miR-140-5p expression levels in nasopharyngeal carcinoma patients was calculated using Pearson correlation analysis.Kaplan-Meier survival curve was applied to analyze the relationship between the expression levels of LncRNA CTBP1-AS2 and miR-140-5p in nasopharyngeal carcinoma tissue and prognosis.Multivariate analysis was conducted on the prognosis of nasopharyngeal carcinoma patients using Cox proportional risk regression model.Results The expression level of LncRNA CTBP1-AS2 in the tissues of patients in nasopharyngeal carcinoma group(2.25±0.46)was higher than that in the control group(1.02±0.22),while the expression level of miR-140-5p(0.67±0.19)was lower than that in the control group(1.01±0.23),and the differences were statistically significant(t=35.742,16.934,all P<0.001).There was a negative correlation between LncRNA CTBP1-AS2 and miR-140-5p expression levels in nasopharyngeal carcinoma patients(r=-0.624,P<0.001).The total effective rate(74.11%)and 3-year survival rate(77.68%)of nasopharyngeal carcinoma patients with high expression of LncRNA CTBP1-AS2 after radiotherapy were lower than those with low expression(93.64%,97.27%),and the differences were statistically significant(χ2=15.578,19.331,all P<0.001).The total effective rate(93.58%)and 3-year survival rate(96.33%)of patients with high expression of miR-140-5p after radiotherapy were higher than those of patients with low expression(74.34%,78.76%),and the differences were statistically significant(χ2=15.119,15.538,all P<0.001).The magnetic resonance amide proton transfer(APT)value(2.10±0.26),the proportion of patients with radiotherapy failure(85.71%),high expression of LncRNA CTBP1-AS2(89.29%),and low expression of miR-140-5p(85.71%)in the death group were higher than those in the survival group(1.82±0.31,6.19%,44.85%,45.88%),and the differences were statistically significant(t/χ2=4.551,108.127,19.331,15.538,all P<0.001).The level of LncRNA CTBP1-AS2 was a risk factor for mortality within 3 years in nasopharyngeal carcinoma patients(HR=2.762,95%CI:1.510～5.051,P=0.001),while the level of miR-140-5p was a protective factor for mortality within 3 years in nasopharyngeal carcinoma patients(HR=0.817,95%CI:0.718～0.930,P=0.002).Conclusion LncRNA CTBP1-AS2 was highly expressed,while miR-140-5p was lowly expressed in nasopharyngeal carcinoma tissue,indicating the two may be closely related to the radiotherapeutic effect and prognosis.

BACKGROUND:With the aging of the global population,the incidence rate of osteoporosis is also increasing.It is very important to further understand its pathogenesis and propose new therapeutic targets.Recent studies have shown that ferroptosis is closely related to the pathogenesis of some bone diseases,such as inflammatory arthritis,osteoporosis and osteoarthritis. OBJECTIVE:To summarize the previous studies on the mechanism of ferroptosis in osteoporosis,so as to provide new therapeutic ideas and potential therapeutic targets for osteoporosis. METHODS:The first author used the computer to search the documents published from 2000 to 2022 in CNKI,WanFang,VIP,PubMed and Web of Science with the key words of"ferroptosis,osteoporosis,osteoblasts,osteoclasts,iron chelators,reactive oxygen species,nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2,heme oxygenase-1,glutathione peroxidase 4,review"in Chinese and English.A total of 70 articles were finally included according to the inclusion criteria. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Ferroptosis is significantly different from necrosis,apoptosis and autophagy.In terms of cell morphology and function,it does not have the morphological characteristics of typical necrosis,nor does it have the characteristics of traditional apoptosis,such as cell contraction,chromatin condensation,the formation of apoptotic bodies and the disintegration of cytoskeleton.Contrary to autophagy,ferroptosis does not form a classical closed bilayer membrane structure(autophagic vacuole).Morphologically,ferroptosis is mainly manifested by obvious contraction of mitochondria,increased membrane density,and reduction or disappearance of mitochondrial cristae,which are different from other cell death modes.Iron overload can destroy bone homeostasis by significantly inhibiting osteogenic differentiation and stimulating osteoclast formation,leading to osteoporosis.Iron overload interferes with the differentiation of stem cells to osteoblasts,leading to a weakened osteoblast function and further imbalance of bone metabolism in the body,which eventually leads to osteoporosis.Stimulated by iron overload,osteoclast bone resorption is enhanced and bone loss exceeds new bone formation.Iron chelators have been proved to have osteoprotective effects by inhibiting osteoclast activity and stimulating osteogenic differentiation of osteoblasts.Its potential mechanism is related to inhibiting osteoclast differentiation and promoting osteoblast differentiation.Antioxidants can prevent reactive oxygen species production and inhibit bone absorption,thus improving bone metabolism and effectively preventing osteoporosis.

Internet medical services provide a more convenient communication channel between doctors and patients.Doctors can communicate with patients through online consultation,telephone and other ways to understand the patient's condition and provide treatment suggestions.This kind of communication mode can enable patients to trust doctors more and establish a good doctor-patient relationship.Therefore,this paper analyzes the development of Internet medical services in hospitals,analyzes the development of services from the perspective of pre diagnosis,in-process and post diagnosis services,and puts forward countermeas-ures for the development of Internet medical services from the perspective of patient satisfaction in view of the lack of perfect policy guarantees,the inability to effectively feedback the needs of patients,the lack of mature service models and other issues.

Background and purpose:For patients with human epidermal growth factor receptor 2(HER2)-positive metastatic breast cancer,trastuzumab treatment can prolong the overall survival and significantly improve the prognosis of patients.However,the reference original research trastuzumab(Herceptin?)is more expensive.Biosimilars have comparable efficacy and safety profiles while increasing patient access to treatment.This clinical trial aimed to evaluate the efficacy,pharmacokinetics,safety and immunogenicity of the trastuzumab biosimilar AK-HER2 compared to trastuzumab(Herceptin?)in patients with HER2-positive metastatic breast cancer.Methods:This multi-center,randomised,double-blind phase Ⅲ clinical trial was conducted in 43 subcenters in China.This study complied with the research protocol,the ethical principles stated in the Declaration of Helsinki and the quality management standards for drug clinical trials.It was approved by the hospital's medical ethics committee.The clinical trial registration agency is the State Food and Drug Administration(clinical trial approval number:2015L04224;clinical trial registration number:CTR20170516).Written informed consent was obtained from subjects before enrollment.Enrolled patients were randomly assigned to the AK-HER2 group and the control group,respectively receiving AK-HER2 or trastuzumab(initial loading dose 8 mg/kg,maintenance dose 6 mg/kg,every 3 weeks as a treatment cycle,total treatment time is 16 cycles)in combination with docetaxel(75 mg/m2,treatment duration is at least 9 cycles).The primary endpoint of this clinical trial was the objective response rate(ORR9)between the AK-HER2 group and the control group in the 9th cycle.Secondary efficacy endpoints included ORR16,disease control rate(DCR),clinical benefit rate(CBR),progression-free survival(PFS)and 1-year survival rate.In this study,100 subjects(AK-HER2 group to control group=1:1)were randomly selected for blood sample collection after the 6th cycle of medication,The collection time points were 45 minutes after infusion(the end of administration),4,8,24,72,120,168,336,and 504 hours after the end of administration.After collection,blood samples were analyzed by PK parameter set(PKPS).Other evaluation parameters included safety and immunogenicity assessment.Results:A total of 550 patients with HER2-positive metastatic breast cancer were enrolled in this clinical trial between Sep.2017 and Mar.2021.In the AK-HER2 group(n=237),129 subjects in the experimental group achieved complete response(CR)or partial response(PR),and the ORR9 was 54.4%.There were 134 subjects in the control group(n=241)who achieved CR or PR,and the ORR9 was 55.6%.The ORR9 ratio between the AK-HER2 group and the control group was 97.9%[90%confidence interval(CI):85.4%-112.2%,P=0.784],which was not statistically significant.In all secondary efficacy endpoints,no statistically significant differences were observed between the two groups.We conducted a mean ratio analysis of pharmacokinetics(PK)parameters between the AK-HER2 group and the control group,and the results suggested that the pharmacokinetic characteristics of the two drugs are similar.The incidence of treatment emergent adverse event(TEAE)leading to drug reduction or suspension during trastuzumab treatment was 3.6%(10 cases)in the AK-HER2 group and 8.1%(22 cases)in the control group.There was statistically significant difference between the two groups(P=0.027).The incidence rate was significantly lower in the AK-HER2 group than in the control group,and there was no statistically significant difference among the other groups.The differences in the positive rates of anti-drug antibodies(ADA)and neutralizing antibodies(NAB)between groups were of no statistical significance(P=0.385 and P=0.752).Conclusion:In patients with HER2-positive metastatic breast cancer,AK-HER2 was comparable to the trastuzumab(Herceptin?)in terms of drug efficacy,pharmacokinetics,safety and immunogenicity.

This review summarizes research progress on current metabolomics methods and the application of metabolomics in rosacea.

BACKGROUND:After the treatment of femoral shaft fracture with the intramedullary nail,the third fracture open reduction indications are controversial.Some scholars believe that limited open reduction can achieve anatomical reduction,conducive to fracture healing;but some scholars believe that no open reduction of the third fracture still has a high fracture healing rate. OBJECTIVE:To investigate the effect of the circumference and displacement of the third fragment on fracture healing after intramedullary nailing of femoral shaft fractures with the third fragment. METHODS:A retrospective cohort study was conducted to analyze the clinical data of 142 patients suffered a femoral shaft fracture with a third fragment admitted to the Affiliated Lianyungang Hospital of Xuzhou Medical University from February 2016 to December 2021.The fracture were classified into three types according to the circumference of the third fracture with reference to the diaphyseal circumference at the fracture site:type 1 in 71 cases,type 2 in 52 cases,and type 3 in 19 cases.Referring to the diaphyseal diameter,the fractures were classified into three degrees according to the degree of the third fragment displacement:degree I in 95 cases,degree II in 31 cases,and degree III in 16 cases.All patients were treated with femoral interlocking intramedullary nails,and no intervention was performed for the displaced third fragment during the operation.Postoperative follow-up was performed to compare the fracture healing rate,healing time,and the modified Radiographic Union Scale for Tibia at month 9 after surgery in each group.The effect of third fracture fragment circumference and degree of displacement on fracture healing was assessed. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)All 142 patients were followed up for at least 12 months,with a mean of(14.7±4.1)months,and the overall healing rate was 73.4%.(2)When the third fragment was displaced by degree I,the healing rate,healing time,and modified Radiographic Union Scale for Tibia score at month 9 were not statistically significant among the three sub-groups of circumference classification.(3)When the third fragments were displaced by degree II or III,the healing rate and healing time were not statistically significant among the three subgroups of circumference classification;the modified Radiographic Union Scale for Tibia score at month 9 in the type 1 group was higher than that in the type 2 and 3 groups(P = 0.017).(4)Logistic regression analysis showed that a greater third fragment displacement and circumference were associated with lower fracture healing rates(P<0.05).(5)These findings indicate that in the treatment of femoral shaft fractures with third fragment by intramedullary nails,when the fracture fragment is displaced to degree I,the circumference size has little effect on fracture healing,and no intervention is required during surgery.When the third fragment is displaced to degree II or III and the circumference of which is type 1,a higher modified Radiographic Union Scale for Tibia score can still be obtained with no intervention of the third fragment.However,when the circumference is of type 2 or type 3,it significantly affects the fracture healing.Consequently,intraoperative intervention to reduce the distance of displacement of the fragment is required to lower the incidence of nonunion.The displacement of the third fracture fragments has a greater impact on fracture healing than their circumference.
