ObjectiveTo investigate the tumor inhibition effect and mechanism of Yifei Sanjie Pills (益肺散结丸, YSP) on lung cancer. MethodsLewis lung cancer tumor-derived mice were established and divided into four groups including model control group, cisplatin group, cisplatin + YSP low-dose group and cisplatin + YSP high-dose group, with 12 mice in each group. The corresponding interventions were given for 14 days. The tumor volume was measured on the 0th, 3rd, 7th, 10th and 14th days of administration to evaluate the tumor growth. The plasma and tumor tissue were collected on the 15th day. Plasma from the model group, the cisplatin group and the cisplatin+YSP high-dose group were selected, and plasma exosomes were extracted; the differences in miRNA expression among the groups were detected and analyzed by second-generation sequencing technology, and the potential mechanism of action of YSP was investigated by principal component analysis, biofunctional enrichment analysis and miRNA-target gene regulatory network analysis. Quantitative real-time PCR was used to detect the expression of miRNA-615-3p in tumor tissues, and the relationship between miRNA-615-3p and overall survival of lung cancer were analyzed using the Kaplan-Meier plotter (kmplot.com) database. ResultsCompared to that of the model control group, the tumor volume of the cisplatin group on day 10, and the cisplatin + YSP low- and high-dose groups on day 7, 10, and 14 were significantly reduced (P<0.05 or P<0.01). Compared to that of the cisplatin group, the tumor volume of the cisplatin + YSP low- and high-dose groups on day 10 and 14 was significantly reduced (P<0.05). The principal component analysis of miRNA expression profiles showed significant differences in miRNA expression between different intervention groups. There were 21 differentially expressed miRNAs between the model control group and the cisplatin group, 50 differentially expressed miRNAs between the model control group and the cisplatin+ YSP high-dose group, and 6 differentially expressed miRNAs between the cisplatin group and the cisplatin+ YSP high-dose group. Biological function enrichment analysis showed that the differentially expressed miRNAs were mainly involved in the regulation of signaling pathways related to cell growth, proliferation, differentiation, autophagy and other biological activities. The miRNA-target gene regulatory network showed the top 20 genes that were targeted, among which there were proven miRNAs and genes related to lung cancer, and miRNAs that needed further investigation. The expression of miRNA-615-3p in tumor tissues decreased significantly in the cisplatin group and cisplatin+YSP high-dose group compared to that of the model group(P<0.05 or P<0.01). The miRNA-615-3p was negatively correlated with the survival prognosis of lung cancer(P<0.05). ConclusionCisplatin combined with YSP can effectively inhibit the proliferation of Lewis lung cancer tumors, and the tumor-suppressive effect is related to the regulation of multiple miRNAs, especially the downregulation of miRNA-615-3p expression.

Objective:To measure and assess relevant radiation doses at the radiotherapy site of the first domestic single-vault proton therapy system.Methods:The radiation levels of the therapy system during and after beam irradiation were measured, and annual effective doses were assessed for personnel at the site.Results:During beam irradiation, the highest radiation dose was detected at the shielded door of the equipment floor, with a gamma radiation level of 2.140 μSv/h and a neutron radiation level of 0.850 μSv/h. Neutron radiation disappeared immediately once the beams stopped. In contrast, the radiation activated originated mostly from gamma rays. A longer time after beams stopped was associated with lower induced radiation intensity at the same location. Furthermore, a farther distance from the irradiated object corresponded to lower induced radiation intensity at the same time. The assessment result reveal that the annual effective doses to the personnel were at the safe level, with physicists exposed to the highest dose of 2.138 mSv.Conclusions:The radiation level at the studied proton therapy site meets the safety requirement, and the treatment can be performed safely at this site.

During coronavirus disease 2019 epidemic, the treatment of severe trauma has been impacted. The Consensus on emergency surgery and infection prevention and control for severe trauma patients with 2019 novel corona virus pneumonia was published online on February 12, 2020, providing a strong guidance for the emergency treatment of severe trauma and the self-protection of medical staffs in the early stage of the epidemic. With the Joint Prevention and Control Mechanism of the State Council renaming "novel coronavirus pneumonia" to "novel coronavirus infection" and the infection being managed with measures against class B infectious diseases since January 8, 2023, the consensus published in 2020 is no longer applicable to the emergency treatment of severe trauma in the new stage of epidemic prevention and control. In this context, led by the Chinese Traumatology Association, Chinese Trauma Surgeon Association, Trauma Medicine Branch of Chinese International Exchange and Promotive Association for Medical and Health Care, and Editorial Board of Chinese Journal of Traumatology, the Chinese expert consensus on emergency surgery for severe trauma and infection prevention during coronavirus disease 2019 epidemic ( version 2023) is formulated to ensure the effectiveness and safety in the treatment of severe trauma in the new stage. Based on the policy of the Joint Prevention and Control Mechanism of the State Council and by using evidence-based medical evidence as well as Delphi expert consultation and voting, 16 recommendations are put forward from the four aspects of the related definitions, infection prevention, preoperative assessment and preparation, emergency operation and postoperative management, hoping to provide a reference for severe trauma care in the new stage of the epidemic prevention and control.

Traumatic rib fractures are the most common injury in thoracic trauma. Previously,the patients with traumatic rib fractures were mostly treated non-surgically,of which 50%,especially those combined with flail chest presented chronic pain or chest wall deformities and over 30% had long-term disabilities,being unable to retain a full-time job. In the past two decades,thanks to the development of internal fixation material technology,the surgical treatment of rib fractures has achieved good outcomes. However,there are still some problems in clinical treatment,including inconsistency in surgical treatment and quality control in medical services. The current consensuses on the management of regional traumatic rib fractures published at home and abroad mainly focus on the guidance of the overall treatment decisions and plans,and relevant clinical guidelines abroad lacks progress in surgical treatment of rib fractures in recent years. Therefore,the Chinese Society of Traumatology affiliated to Chinese Medical Association and Chinese College of Trauma Surgeons affiliated to Chinese Medical Doctor Association,in conjunction with national multidisciplinary experts,formulate the Chinese Consensus for Surgical Treatment of Traumatic Rib Fractures(2021)following the principle of evidence-based medicine,scientific nature and practicality. This expert consensus puts forward some clear,applicable,and graded recommendations from aspects of preoperative imaging evaluation,surgical indications,timing of surgery,surgical methods,rib fracture sites for surgical fixation,internal fixation methods and material selections,treatment of combined injuries in rib fractures,in order to provide references for surgical treatment of traumatic rib fractures.

Gene expression labeling and conditional manipulation of gene function are important for elaborate dissection of gene function. However, contemporary generation of pairwise dual-function knockin alleles to achieve both conditional and geno-tagging effects with a single donor has not been reported. Here we first developed a strategy based on a flipping donor named FoRe to generate conditional knockout alleles coupled with fluorescent allele-labeling through NHEJ-mediated unidirectional targeted insertion in zebrafish facilitated by the CRISPR/Cas system. We demonstrated the feasibility of this strategy at sox10 and isl1 loci, and successfully achieved Cre-induced conditional knockout of target gene function and simultaneous switch of the fluorescent reporter, allowing generation of genetic mosaics for lineage tracing. We then improved the donor design enabling efficient one-step bidirectional knockin to generate paired positive and negative conditional alleles, both tagged with two different fluorescent reporters. By introducing Cre recombinase, these alleles could be used to achieve both conditional knockout and conditional gene restoration in parallel; furthermore, differential fluorescent labeling of the positive and negative alleles enables simple, early and efficient real-time discrimination of individual live embryos bearing different genotypes prior to the emergence of morphologically visible phenotypes. We named our improved donor as Bi-FoRe and demonstrated its feasibility at the sox10 locus. Furthermore, we eliminated the undesirable bacterial backbone in the donor using minicircle DNA technology. Our system could easily be expanded for other applications or to other organisms, and coupling fluorescent labeling of gene expression and conditional manipulation of gene function will provide unique opportunities to fully reveal the power of emerging single-cell sequencing technologies.

Hepatic venous pressure gradient (HVPG) is the "gold standard" for diagnosing portal hypertension and determining its severity, but its wide clinical application is limited due to its invasiveness and difficulties in operation. The replacement of HVPG by noninvasive methods has become a research hotspot in recent years; however, the accuracy of the existing serological and imaging methods remains to be discussed, and such methods cannot completely replace HVPG in clinical practice. Liver biopsy has been widely used in clinical practice for many years and is still an indispensable method for the diagnosis of some liver diseases. Recent studies have found that several pathological indicators after liver biopsy, such as collagen area, fibrous septal thickness, nodule size, microvascular density, and density and area of bile ducts and lymphatic vessels, can not only judge the severity of liver fibrosis, but also have a good correlation with portal venous pressure, which provides new ideas for diagnosing cirrhotic portal hypertension and evaluating the severity of portal hypertension.
