Objective To investigate and analyze the resources and application frequency of radiological diagnosis and treatment in Jinan City in 2023 and provide a basis for the rational application of radiological diagnosis and treatment resources and strengthening radiological health protection management. Methods The health administrative department issued a work plan. A general survey was conducted on radiological diagnosis and treatment institutions (excluding dental clinics) in Jinan City using a questionnaire. The survey covered the basic information of the radiological diagnosis and treatment institutions, the distribution of the radiological diagnosis and treatment equipment, the number of radiological workers, and the frequency of radiological diagnosis and treatment. Results There were 301 radiological diagnosis and treatment institutions in Jinan City, with 1603 sets of radiological diagnosis and treatment equipment and 5789 radiological workers. These institutions included 41 (13.62%) tertiary hospitals, 57 (18.94%) secondary hospitals, 110 (36.54%) primary hospitals, and 93 (30.90%) ungraded hospitals. Tertiary hospitals had the highest proportions of radiological diagnosis and treatment equipment and workers, accounting for 49.53% and 69.10% of the total, respectively. The frequencies of radiological diagnosis and treatment were 868.86 X-ray diagnostic imaging examinations per 1000 population, 5.07 radiotherapies per 1000 population, 14.19 interventional diagnostic and therapeutic procedures per 1000 population, 7.36 nuclear medical diagnostic procedures per 1000 population, and 0.56 nuclear medical therapeutic procedures per 1000 population. The frequency of CT diagnosis was the highest, reaching 407.76 procedures per 1000 population. Conclusion The radiological diagnosis and treatment resources and activities in Jinan City were mainly concentrated in tertiary hospitals, with unbalanced distribution among hospitals of different grades. It is necessary to apply various medical radiations correctly and reasonably and strengthen radiation protection to reduce the frequency of radiation and the collective effective dose.

With the deepening of population aging， the number of disabled and semi-disabled elderly individuals continues to increase， and the ethical care issues of mental health services for the disabled elderly are becoming increasingly prominent. When examining ethical issues， the concept of the “holistic view of traditional Chinese medicine” from ancient Chinese traditional culture was explored. While applying theories from the holistic view of traditional Chinese medicine， such as “the unity of form and spirit” and “the integration of form and spirit，” emphasis should be placed on the organic integration of psychology and physiology. The mental health status of the disabled elderly can be comprehensively improved by addressing both internal and external environmental factors. In response to the current situation of mental health services for the disabled elderly， ethical care should be provided for the mental health services of the disabled elderly， focusing on the value of subjectivity， difference， and continuity in ethical care， thereby improving the mental health status of the disabled elderly.

Objective: To investigate the clinical efficacy and safety of pudendal nerve modulation (PNM) in the treatment of female pudendal neuralgia (PN)，so as to promote the clinical application of this technique. Methods: A retrospective analysis was conducted on 20 female PN patients who failed conservative treatment at Gongli Hospital during Nov.2020 and Oct.2023.All patients underwent simultaneous PNM and sacral nerve modulation (SNM) with the assistance of 3D printing navigation.Dual-stage test electrodes for PNM and SNM were implanted，followed by alternate therapeutic trial for each modality.Secondary conversion rates and longitudinal outcomes，including visual analogue score (VAS)，patient health questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9)，and quality of life (QoL) scores were compared preoperatively，post-stage Ⅰ，and at 3，6，and 12 months post-stage Ⅱ. Results: All operations were successful.After the trial phase，the secondary conversion rate for PNM was significantly higher than that for SNM; 16 patients (16/20，80%) chose the second-phase PNM implantation surgery，3 (3/20，15%) chose second-phase SNM implantation，and 1 (1/20，5%) had electrodes removed due to ineffective results from both trials.Further assessment revealed that the improvements in VAS，PHQ-9，and QoL scores for PNM patients were significantly better than those for SNM patients after the first phase of surgery and at 3，6 and 12 months after the second-phase conversion (P<0.05).No complications such as electrode migration or infection were observed during the follow-up of 12-15 months. Conclusion: PNM provides more effective relief of pain symptoms and improvements in depressive states for female PN patients compared to SNM.With the assistance of 3D printing navigation，the operation is simple and safe，and offers stable therapeutic effects.It is worthy of clinical promotion and application.

Objective To analyze the factors related to early allograft dysfunction(EAD)after liver transplantation and to construct a predictive model.Methods A total of 375 patients who underwent liver transplantation in our hospital from December 2008 to December 2021 were collected,including 90 patients with EAD and 266 patients without EAD.Thirty items of baseline data for the 2 groups were compared and analyzed.Aftergrouping in a ratio of 7∶3,univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were used in the training set to evaluate the factors related to EAD and construct a nomogram.Receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve,decision curve analysis(DCA),sensitivity,specificity,positive predictive value,negative predictive value,Kappa value and other indicators were used to evaluate the model performance.Results The incidence of EAD after liver transplantation was 24%.Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that preoperative tumor recurrence history(OR=3.15,95%CI:1.28～7.77,P=0.013)and operation time(OR=1.22,95%CI:1.04～1.42,P=0.015)were related to the occurrence of EAD after surgery.After predicting the outcome according to the cut-off point of 0.519 identified by the Youden index,the model performance in the both training set and validation set was acceptable.DCA suggested the model has good clinical applicability.Conclusion The risk factors for EAD after liver transplantation are preoperative tumor recurrence history and operation time,and the established model has predictive effect on prognosis.

Projection micro stereolithography three-dimensional(3D)printing method was proposed in this study to fabricate complex microchannels of combined cross-sections.By using 3D printing and polydimethylsiloxane(PDMS)replication methods,two inertial microfluidic chips of three-step and five-step cross-sections were fabricated,and the dimension precisions of the microchannels were controlled within 20 μm.Using the microfluidic chips,the movements of two fluorescent polystyrene particles with diameters of 10 and 6 μm in the stepped channels were investigated.In addition,numerical simulations were applied to demonstrate the inertial focusing mechanisms of particles in the channels.It was found that 10-μm particles had three equilibrium positions in the three-step channel,which located at the inner walls of the three steps,respectively,and most particles focused at the inner step.The 6-μm particles also had three equilibrium positions in the three-step channel.However,the particles migrated to the middle and the outer steps under high flow rates.In the five-step channel,when the flow rate was increased gradually,10-μm particles had a single and two equilibrium positions,respectively,and the particles migrated towards the inner channel wall under high flow rates.In comparison to 10-μm particles,6-μm particles had two stable equilibrium positions in the five-step channel at all flow rate range.It could be concluded that the quantity,shape and strength of the secondary flow vortex could be altered by changing structure of the combined cross-section,thus the equilibrium positions and quantities of the focusing particles could be also regulated.The research outcome might provide new insights for precise cell inertial manipulation and promote the application and development of inertial microfluidic technology in biomedical and other fields.

BACKGROUND:For the patients who have undergone unicompartmental knee arthroplasty,although the surgical effect is clear,there is still a lack of effective quantitative evaluation tools,and it is necessary to further explore the early postoperative gait and stability changes. OBJECTIVE:To investigate the changes in gait and stability before and after unicompartmental knee arthroplasty. METHODS:From May 2021 to May 2022,30 patients aged(63.80±9.31)years who planned to perform unilateral unicompartmental knee arthroplasty in the Department of Joint Surgery,Affiliated Hospital of Xuzhou Medical University were selected as the unicompartmental knee arthroplasty group.15 healthy elderly patients aged(61.28±8.60)years without a history of hip and knee pain and hip and knee joint dysfunction were recruited as the control group.Hospital for special surgery scores,stability parameters(center of pressure path length,95%confidence ellipse area)and gait parameters(pace,stride length,stride frequency,gait cycle,and the proportion of single support period)were recorded and compared in the control group and unicompartmental knee arthroplasty group before operation,1 and 3 months after operation. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)There was no significant difference in the step frequency between the patients 1 month after operation and those before operation in the unicompartmental knee arthroplasty group(P＞0.05).The stability of 1 month after operation was worse than that before operation,and other parameters of 1 month after operation were better than those before operation,and the difference was statistically significant(P＜0.05).(2)Hospital for special surgery score,gait and stability parameters at 3 months after operation were better than those before operation(P＜0.05).(3)Compared with the control group,the pace,stride length,stride frequency,and the proportion of single support period of the unicompartmental knee arthroplasty group were significantly lower before and 3 months after operation.Center of pressure path length,95%confidence ellipse area and gait cycle were greater in the unicompartmental knee arthroplasty group than those in the control group,with statistically significant differences(P＜0.05).(4)It is indicated that gait analysis is an effective means to quantitatively evaluate the rehabilitation status after unicompartmental knee arthroplasty.The early gait recovery after unicompartmental knee arthroplasty is good,but the gait frequency improvement is not obvious and the stability is poor 1 month after the operation.

The heat shock protein 90 (Hsp90) protein family is a cluster of highly conserved molecules that play an important role in maintaining cellular homeostasis. Hsp90 and its co-chaperones regulate a variety of pathways and cellular functions, such as cell growth, cell cycle control and apoptosis. Hsp90 is closely associated with the occurrence and development of tumors and other diseases, making it an attractive target for cancer therapeutics. Inhibition of Hsp90 expression can affect multiple oncogenic pathways simultaneously. Most Hsp90 small molecule inhibitors are in clinical trials due to their low efficacy, toxicity or drug resistance, but they have obvious synergistic anti-tumor effect when used with histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitors, tubulin inhibitors or topoisomerase II (Topo II) inhibitors. To address this issue, the design of Hsp90 dual-target inhibitors can improve efficacy and reduce drug resistance, making it an effective tumor treatment strategy. In this paper, the domain and biological function of Hsp90 are briefly introduced, and the design, discovery and structure-activity relationship of Hsp90 dual inhibitors are discussed, in order to provide reference for the discovery of novel Hsp90 dual inhibitors and clinical drug research from the perspective of medicinal chemistry.

AIM:To investigate the role of Ywhab in the growth of mouse B-cell lymphoma,and to explore the potential underlying mechanisms.METHODS:The correlation between Ywhab and human diffuse large B-cell lymphoma(DLBCL)was investigated by bioinformatics analysis.Infection with retroviral vector was performed to establish stable mouse B-cell lymphoma 38B9 cell line with overexpression of Ywhab gene,which was verified by RT-qPCR and Western blot.The impact of Ywhab overexpression on 38B9 cell growth both in vitro and in vivo was detected by cell counting,CCK-8 assay,and subcutaneous tumor loading experiments.The expression of apoptosis-related proteins was detected by RT-qPCR and Western blot.Co-immunoprecipitation combined with mass spectrometry(CoIP-MS)was employed to search for proteins specifically binding to Ywhab gene product 14-3-3β,which was confirmed by Western blot and molecu-lar docking analysis.RESULTS:The Ywhab gene exhibited low expression in DLBCL,which was correlated with poor clinical prognosis of DLBCL patients.Compared with normal mouse bone marrow B cells,Ywhab expression was low in 38B9 cells.Overexpression of Ywhab induced apoptosis of 38B9 cells both in vitro and in vivo,promoted the expression of pro-apoptotic proteins Puma,Noxa and Bax at both mRNA and protein levels,and inhibited the mRNA and protein expres-sion of anti-apoptotic protein Bcl2(P＜0.05).The 14-3-3β protein specifically bound to Hsp90aa1 and reduced Hsp90aa1 protein levels,thereby suppressing the growth of 38B9 cells.CONCLUSION:Ywhab promotes the apoptosis of B-cell lymphoma cells by binding to Hsp90aa1 and thereby inhibiting the function of Hsp90aa1.

ObjectiveTo investigate the high-risk detection rate and aggregation of cardiovascular diseases（CVD） in 8 districts of Shanghai and influencing factors， and to provide scientific references for prevention and control of CVD. MethodsBased on the Cardiovascular Disease Screening and Management Program in Shanghai from 2016 to 2021， 104 685 participants aged 35 to 75 in 8 districts of Shanghai were selected for analysis. χ² test and multivariate logistic regression were used for statistical analysis of the influencing factors of CVD and aggregation of CVD. ResultsThe proportion of high-risk CVD individuals in the population was 19.17%， including the high-risk individuals with hypertension （8.65%）， dyslipidemia （6.33%）， CVD history （5.58%）， and WHO assessed risk ≥20% types （2.69%）， respectively. Old age， overweight and obesity， central obesity， smoking， drinking， farmers， unmarried， and low family income were the risk factors of CVD， while high education level was the protective factor. In the participants， 16 323 people （81.34%） were classified as CVD high-risk groups； The number of aggregation of 1， 2 and ≥3 high risk types of CVD were 16 323（81.34%）， 3 236（16.13%）， 509（2.54%）， respectively. Old age， low education level， low annual family income， farmers， unmarried， smoking， drinking， overweight， obesity and central obesity were associated with the risk of aggregation of high risk types of CVD， and the correlation strength increased with the increase of aggregation types. ConclusionThe prevention and control of CVD in Shanghai should focus on the hypertension， elderly， overweight， obesity， central obesity， smoking， drinking， low educated， low family income， farmers and unmarried people， and targeted intervention measures should be taken to reduce the risk of CVD among residents.

Objective:To investigate the role of circular RNA (circRNA) circSEPT9 in the radioresistance of glioma and its molecular mechanism.Methods:Pathological samples were collected from 40 glioma patients who underwent surgery and postoperative radiotherapy in the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from January 2019 to January 2022. All patients were divided into the radiation-sensitive and radiation-resistant groups. The expression levels of circSEPT9 were assessed using real-time reverse transcription PCR (RT-qPCR) in two groups. The radiation-resistant glioma cell U251R was constructed based on human glioma cell U251. The U251R cells were divided into the negative control (si-NC), circSEPT9 knockdown (si-circSEPT9), negative control combined with irradiation (si-NC+4 Gy), circSEPT9 knockdown combined with irradiation (si-circSEPT9+4 Gy), circSEPT9 knockdown combined with control inhibitor and irradiation (si-circSEPT9+NC inhibitor+4 Gy), and circSEPT9 knockdown combined with miR-432-5p inhibitor and irradiation (si-circSEPT9+miR-432-5p inhibitor+4 Gy) groups. The targeting relationship between circSEPT9 and miR-432-5p was verified through dual-luciferase reporter assay. Colony formation assay was employed to assess the survival rate of U251R cells. Flow cytometry was adopted to measure the apoptosis rate. The expression level of circSEPT9 in glioma tissues was statistically analyzed using independent sample t-test. The survival and apoptosis rates in each group were evaluated using one-way ANOVA. Results:The expression level of circSEPT9 was up-regulated in the glioma tissues of patients in the radiation-resistant group (1.00±0.18 vs. 3.25±0.13, P<0.05). Compared to the si-NC group, the U251R cells in the si-circSEPT9 group exhibited a significant reduction in survival fraction and a notable increase in apoptosis rate (9.24±0.83 vs. 19.36±2.13, both P<0.05). After radiation exposure at 4, 6 and 8 Gy, si-circSEPT9 treatment significantly decreased the survival fraction in U251R cells (all P<0.05). Compared with the si-NC+4 Gy group, the apoptosis rate was increased in the si-circSEPT9+4 Gy group (18.83±1.94 vs. 35.23±3.56, P<0.05). Dual-luciferase reporter assay showed that circSEPT9 could target and negatively regulate the expression level of miR-432-5p. Compared with the si-circSEPT9+NC inhibitor+4 Gy group, the survival fraction of U251R was significantly increased in the si-circSEPT9+miR-432-5p inhibitor+4 Gy group ( P<0.05). Conclusion:Knockdown of circSEPT9 enhances the radiosensitivity of glioma cells by regulating cell apoptosis through targeting the miR-432-5p.
