OBJECTIVE To establish a quantitative analysis of multi-components by single-marker （QAMS） method for simultaneous determination of six flavonoids and two phenolic acids in Perilla frutescens leaves using scutellarin and rosmarinic acid as internal reference substances， and apply this method to determine the contents of eight components in 20 batches of P. frutescens leaves samples from different regions. METHODS Scutellarin served as the internal reference to calculate relative correction factors （RCFs） for scutellarin-7-O-diglucuronide， luteolin-7-O-diglucuronide， apigenin-7-O-diglucuronide， luteolin-7-O- β-D-glucuronide and apigenin-7-O-glucuronide. Rosmarinic acid was employed as the internal reference to determine the RCF for caffeic acid. The contents of the above flavonoids and phenolic acids were calculated with QAMS， and compared with the results of external standard method. RESULTS The eight analytes demonstrated excellent linearity within their respective concentration ranges （r≥0.999 0）. The mean recovery rates for spiked samples ranged from 95.60% to 102.15%， with relative standard deviations （RSDs） of 0.72% to 2.70% （n＝6）. The method exhibited good precision， repeatability， and stability （RSD＜2.50%， n＝6）. Variations in instruments， columns， column temperature， flow rate， and formic acid volume fraction had minimal impact on the RCFs （RSD＜3%， n＝3）. Comparison with the external standard method showed no significant differences in the content of each component across batches， except for caffeic acid in the ZS12 batch （absolute value of RE＜5%， n＝2）. The contents of six CARS-21） flavonoid components in P. frutescens leaves samples varied significantly across different geographic origins， while the content of total flavonoids showed no significant difference. In contrast， the contents of two phenolic acid components and total phenolic acid exhibited significant variation among samples from different regions. CONCLUSIONS The developed QAMS method can simultaneously determine the contents of six flavonoids and two phenolic acids in P. frutescens leaves. It is convenient for detection， highly accurate， and cost-effective. This method is suitable for the quality control of P. frutescens leaves， and the variation of flavonoid and phenolic acid content in samples from different regions provides a reference for the selection of optimal cultivation areas.

BACKGROUND:Repetitive magnetic stimulation of either S3 nerve root or M1 area can improve the urination function of patients with urinary retention after spinal cord injury,but there are few reports on the repetitive magnetic stimulation of both sites in patients with urinary retention after spinal cord injury. OBJECTIVE:To observe the effect of repetitive magnetic stimulation of both S3 nerve root and M1 area on urinary retention after spinal cord injury. METHODS:Forty patients with urinary retention after spinal cord injury were enrolled and were randomly divided into two groups(n=20 per group):group A(repetitive magnetic stimulation in both S3 nerve root and M1 area)and group B(repetitive magnetic stimulation in the S3 nerve root and sham stimulation in the M1 area).Patients in both groups were given 4-week repetitive magnetic stimulation based on conventional bladder function intervention.The stimulation time and duration of treatment were same in both groups,with a treatment time of 21 minutes daily,5 days per week,for 4 weeks in total.The urination diary and urodynamics were compared between two groups. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Before treatment,there were no statistically significant differences in the average daily catheterization times,average daily catheterization volume,average single urinary volume,urinary storage period(maximum bladder volume,bladder pressure),and urinary voiding period(detrusor pressure,residual urine volume)between the two groups(P>0.05).After 4 weeks of treatment,the average daily catheterization times in group A were lower than before treatment(P<0.05),while the average single urination volume in group A was higher than that before treatment(P<0.05);and the average daily catheterization times in group B were lower than before treatment(P<0.05).After 4 weeks of treatment,the average daily catheterization times in group A were lower than those in group B,and the average single urination volume was higher than that in group B(P<0.05).After 4 weeks of treatment,the maximum bladder volume and detrusor pressure during urination were increased in both groups compared with before treatment(P<0.05),while the bladder pressure and residual urine volume at the maximum volume of the two groups were decreased compared with those before treatment(P<0.05).Compared with group B,the maximum bladder volume and detrusor pressure during urination were higher in group A,while the bladder pressure and residual urine volume at maximum volume were lower in group A(P<0.05).To conclude,two treatments can both improve the urination function of patients with urinary retention after spinal cord injury,and repetitive magnetic stimulation of both S3 nerve root and M1 area is superior to repetitive magnetic stimulation of S3 nerve root alone.Repetitive magnetic stimulation of both S3 nerve root and M1 area can effectively improve the urination function of patients with urinary retention after spinal cord injury.

Objective:To investigate the influencing factors for early tumor recurrence and the efficacy of adjuvant chemotherapy in gallbladder carcinoma (GBC) patients after curative-intent resection.Methods:The retrospective case-control study was conducted. The clinicopathological data of 506 patients with GBC in 11 medical centers, including The First Affiliated Hospital of Xi'an Jiaotong University et al, from January 2016 to December 2020 were collected. There were 168 males and 338 females, aged (62±11)years. All patients underwent curative-intent resection of GBC, and they were divided into patients with and without early recurrence based on time to postoperative recurrence. Observation indicators: (1) treatment; (2) follow-up and survival of patients; (3) analysis of influencing factors for early tumor recurrence after curative-intent resection of GBC; (4) efficacy of postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy. Measurement data with normal distribution were represented as Mean± SD, and measurement data with skewed distribution were represented as M(range). Count data were described as absolute numbers, and comparison between groups was conducted using the chi-square test. Comparison of ordinal data was conducted using the Mann-Whitney U test. Univariate analysis was conducted using the corresponding statistical methods based on data type. Multivariate analysis was conducted using the Logistic regression model with forward method. The Kaplan-Meier method was used to draw survival curve and calculate survival rate, and Log-Rank test was used for survival analysis. Results:(1) Treatment. Of 506 patients, there were 112 cases with postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy, and 394 cases without postopera-tive adjuvant chemotherapy. They underwent 5(range, 3-9)cycles of postoperative adjuvant chemo-therapy. (2) Follow-up and survival of patients. All 506 patients underwent postoperative follow-up, with the follow-up time of 55(range, 34-93)months. During the follow-up, there were 248 patients with tumor recurrence, including 158 cases of early recurrence and 90 cases of late recurrence, and there were 258 patients without tumor recurrence. Of 506 patients, 275 cases survived, and 231 cases died of multiple organ failure caused by tumor recurrence and metastasis. The postoperative recurr-ence-free survival time, overall survival time were 52(range,1-93)months, 62(range, 2-93)months. The 1-, 3-, 5-year disease-free survival rates and 1-, 3-, 5-year overall survival rates of the 506 pati-ents were 68.8%, 53.8%, 47.9% and 78.3%, 58.7%, 51.6%, respectively. Results of survival analysis showed that the median overall survival time of 158 patients with postoperative early recurrence and 348 patients without postoperative early recurrence (including 90 cases of late recurrence and 258 cases of no tumor recurrence) were 9(range, 2-73)months and unreached, showing a significant difference between them ( χ2=456.15, P<0.05). (3) Analysis of influencing factors for early tumor recurrence after curative-intent resection of GBC. Results of multivariate analysis showed that carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) >5.0 μg/L, poorly differentiated tumor, liver invasion, and tumor N staging as stage N1-N2 were independent risk factors influencing early tumor recurrence after cura-tive-intent resection of GBC ( odds ratio=2.74, 6.20, 1.81, 2.93, 4.82, 95% confidence interval as 1.62-4.64, 1.82-21.12, 1.15-3.08, 1.68-5.09, 1.91-12.18, P<0.05), while postoperative adjuvant chemo-therapy was an independent protect factor ( odds ratio=0.39, 95% confidence interval as 0.21-0.71, P<0.05). (4) Efficacy of postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy. The median overall survival time of 394 patients without postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy and 112 patients with postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy were 57(range, 2-93)months and unreached, showing a significant differ-ence between them ( χ2=9.38, P<0.05). Of the 158 patients with postoperative early recurrence after curative-intent resection of GBC, 135 cases didn't receive adjuvant chemotherapy and 23 cases received adjuvant chemotherapy, with the overall survival time of 8(range, 2-73)months and 17(range, 8-61)months, respectively, showing a significant difference between them ( χ2=7.68, P<0.05). Conclusions:CEA >5.0 μg/L, poorly differentiated tumor, liver invasion, and tumor N staging as stage N1-N2 are independent risk factors influencing early tumor recurrence after curative-intent resection of GBC, while postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy is an independent protect factor. Postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy can prolong the overall survival time of patients with post-operative tumor early recurrence.

Severe acute pancreatitis(SAP)is characterized by rapid onset and progression,complex clinicopathological changes,and a mortality rate of as high as 20%—30%.Long-term clinical practice and basic research have shown that relying solely on Western medicine for the treatment of SAP may not achieve satisfactory outcomes,and integrated traditional Chinese and Western medicine therapy has a marked clinical effect and significant advantages.Based on evidence-based medicine and with reference to related guidelines and clinical practice in China and globally,these guidelines summarize 28 clinical questions after widely soliciting opinions and suggestions from experts.This document specifically elaborates on the etiology,pathogenesis,and diagnostic criteria of SAP,as well as the key points of integrated traditional Chinese and Western medicine typing,disease staging,treatment methods,and therapies,so as to standardize the integrated traditional Chinese and Western medicine diagnostic criteria and treatment principles of SAP.

Objective:To investigate the influence of curative-intent resection with textbook outcomes of liver surgery (TOLS) on long-term prognosis of gallbladder carcinoma (GBC).Methods:The retrospective cohort study was conducted. The clinicopathological data of 824 patients with GBC in the national multicenter database of Biliary Surgery Group of Elite Group of Chinese Journal of Digestive Surgery, who were admitted to 15 medical centers from January 2014 to January 2021, were collected. There were 285 males and 539 females, aged (62±11)years. According to the evalua-tion criteria of TOLS, patients were divided into those who achieved TOLS and those who did not achieve TOLS. Measurement data with normal distribution were represented as Mean± SD, and com-parison between groups was conducted using the independent sample t test. Measurement data with skewed distribution were represented as M( Q1, Q3), and comparison between groups was conducted using the Mann-Whitney U test. Count data were described as absolute numbers, and comparison between groups was conducted using the chi-square test. Comparison of ordinal data were conduc-ted using the Mann-Whitney U test. The Kaplan-Meier method was used to calculate survival rate and draw survival curve, and the Log-rank test was used for survival analysis. The COX stepwise regression model with backward Wald method was used for univariate and multivariate analyses. Results:(1) Achievement of TOLS. Of the 824 patients undergoing curative-intent resection for GBC, there were 510 cases achieving TOLS and 314 cases not achieving TOLS. (2) Follow-up. Of the 824 patients undergoing curative-intent resection for GBC, after excluding 112 deaths within 90 days after discharge, 712 cases were included for the survival analysis. The median follow-up time, median overall survival time and 5-year overall survival rate of the 510 patients achieving TOLS were 22.1(11.4,30.1)months, 47.6(30.6,64.6)months and 47.5%. The median follow-up time, median overall survival time and 5-year overall survival rate of the 202 patients not achieving TOLS were 14.0(6.8,25.5)months, 24.3(20.0,28.6)months and 21.0%. There was a significant difference in overall survival between patients achieving TOLS and patients not achieving TOLS ( χ2=58.491, P<0.05). (3) Analysis of factors influencing prognosis of patients. Results of multivariate analysis showed that TOLS, carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA), CA19-9, poorly differentiation of tumor, T2 stage of eighth edition of American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC) staging, T3 and T4 stage of eighth edition of AJCC staging, N1 stage of the eighth edition of AJCC staging, N2 stage of the eighth edition of AJCC staging, adjuvant therapy were independent factors influencing overall survival time of patients undergoing curative-intent resection for GBC ( hazard ratio=0.452, 1.479, 1.373, 1.612, 1.455, 1.481, 1.835, 1.978, 0.538, 95% c onfidence interval as 0.352-0.581, 1.141-1.964, 1.052-1.791, 1.259-2.063, 1.102-1.920, 1.022-2.147, 1.380-2.441, 1.342-2.915, 0.382-0.758, P<0.05). Conclusion:Patients under-going curative-intent resection for GBC with TOLS can achieve better long-term prognosis.

Objective To evaluate the clinical outcome of kidney transplantation from donation after brain death(DBD)donors complicated with acute kidney injury(AKI).Methods Clinical data of 216 DBD donors were retrospectively analyzed,and they were divided into the AKI group(n=69)and control group(n=147)according to the Kidney Disease:Improving Global Outcomes(KDIGO)guidelines.Donors in the AKI group were further divided into the KDIGO stage 1 and stage 2-3 subgroups.One hundred and thirty-five recipients were assigned into the AKI group and 288 recipients in the control group.Postoperative recovery of renal function and clinical outcomes of the recipients were recorded.The risk factors of delayed graft function(DGF)were identified.Results The highest serum creatinine(Scr)level,Scr level before procurement,the highest blood sodium level and blood sodium level before procurement in the AKI group were higher than those in the control group.The application duration of vasopressors in the AKI group was longer than that in the control group.In the AKI group,the amount of fluid resuscitation within 48 h was higher,the HCO3-level at admission was lower,and the incidence of diabetes insipidus and hypotension was higher than those in the control group.The highest Scr level and the Scr level before procurement in KDIGO stage 2-3 donors were significantly higher than those in KDIGO stage 1 counterparts(all P＜0.05).Compared with the control group,the incidence of DGF and acute rejection was higher,the proportion of continuous renal replacement therapy was higher,the Scr level within postoperative 90 d was higher,and the urine amount within postoperative 3 d was less than those of recipients in the AKI group.Compared with KDIGO stage 1 recipients,KDIGO stage 2-3 recipients had higher Scr levels at postoperative 3,4,5 and 15 d,and less urine amount at postoperative 2 d(all P＜0.05).Univariate analysis showed that donor age,the highest Scr level,the highest blood sodium level and the amount of fluid resuscitation within 48 h were the risk factors for DGF in recipients after kidney transplantation.Multivariate analysis showed that donor age was the independent risk factor for DGF in recipients after kidney transplantation(all P＜0.05).Conclusions For the application of DBD donors complicated with AKI,active organ maintenance should be performed to alleviate AKI.It exerts no effect upon graft function and survival rate at postoperative 6 months,which may achieve equivalent efficacy as non-AKI donors and may be used as a source of extended criteria donor kidneys.

Objective:To summarize the experience of brain death determination under veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA-ECMO) assisted circulatory support, especially apnea test (AT) precautions, and to provide references for brain death determination in this scenario.Methods:In 78 patients who had VA-ECMO at Organ Transplant Center, Zhengzhou People's Hospital from October 2019 to December 2023, 8 organ donors had brain death determination under VA-ECMO assisted circulatory support. Baseline data, clinical data, and VA-ECMO data during AT trial were collected from these 8 patients to summarize the process of brain death determination.Results:Six of the 8 donors met the criteria of brain death; 10 EEG, 12 evoked potentials and 15 ATs were performed. Complications in ATs, including hypotension, decreased oxygenation and arrhythmia, were alleviated after timely improved VA-ECMO flow and applied cardiotonic and pressor drugs.Conclusion:AT is key for successful brain death determination in organ donors under VA-ECMO assisted circulatory support; therefore, complications should be closely monitored and managed.

Objective:The incidence of prostate cancer is increasing every year,and precision diagnosis and treatment can help reduce unnecessary prostate punctures for prostate cancer patients in the gray area.This study aims to investigate the diagnostic value of 18F-prostate specific membrane antigen(PSMA)imaging combined with prostate specific antigen(PSA)-derived indicators for gray zone prostate cancer. Methods:A total of 107 patients who underwent 18F-PSMA PET/CT imaging for suspicious prostate cancer with tPSA of 4 to 10 μg/L(PSA gray zone)in a hospital were retrospectively included,and were divided into a prostate cancer group and a non-prostate cancer group based on pathological findings.Patients underwent PSA testing,18F-PSMA,and abdominal ultrasound,and age,tPSA,fPSA,f/tPSA,prostate volume,PSA density(PSAD),maximum standardized uptake value(SUVmax),and molecular imaging prostate specific membrane antigen(miPSMA)score were compared between the 2 groups.Multivariate logistic regression was used to analyze the influencing factors the diagnosis of gray zone prostate cancer.Receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curves were constructed to evaluate the efficacy of PSAD and SUVmax alone and in combination in diagnosing gray zone prostate cancer. Results:The volume of the prostate cancer group[42.00(34.00,58.00)cm3 vs 49.00(41.27,60.41)cm3]was smaller than that of the non-prostate cancer group(Z=-2.376,P=0.017),and the PSAD[(0.18±0.06)μg/(L·cm3)vs 0.15±0.05 μg/(L·cm3)]and SUVmax[18.63(8.03,28.57)vs 9.33(5.90,13.52)]were higher than those in the non-prostate cancer group(both P<0.05).The percentage of miPSMA score≥2 in the prostate cancer group was higher than that in the non-prostate cancer group(χ2=40.987,P<0.001).PSAD(OR= 22.154,95%CI 1.430 to 873.751,P=0.042)and SUVmax(OR=1.301,95%CI 1.034 to 1.678,P=0.009)were independent influential factors for the diagnosis of prostate cancer in the gray zone.The optimal cut-off values of PSAD and SUVmax were 0.22 μg/(L·cm3)and 8.02,respectively,and the AUCs for the diagnosis of prostate cancer in the gray zone alone and in combination were 0.628(95%CI 0.530 to 0.720,P<0.05)and 0.806(95%CI 0.718 to 0.876,P<0.05),0.847(95%CI 0.765 to 0.910,P<0.05),with sensitivities of 41.03%,76.92%,and 74.36%and specificities of 79.41%,89.71%,and 92.65%,respectively. Conclusion:PSAD and SUVmax are increased in patients with gray zone prostate cancer,and the combination of PSAD and SUVmax is of high value in diagnosing gray zone prostate cancer.

The clinicopathological data of 530 patients who underwent radical resection of gallbladder carcinoma in 15 medical centers, including the First Affiliated Hospital of Army Medical University et al, from January 2014 to January 2020 were collected. There were 209 males and 321 females, aged (61±10)years. Patients underwent radical resection of gallbladder carcinoma, including cholecystectomy, hepatectomy, invasive bile duct resection, and lymph node dissection. Observation indicators: (1) situations of TOLS; (2) influencing factors of TOLS. Measure-ment data with normal distribution were represented as Mean± SD, and comparison between groups was conducted using the independent sample t test. Measurement data with skewed distribution were represented as M( Q1, Q3), and comparison between groups was conducted using the Mann-Whitney U test. Count data were described as absolute numbers or percentages, and comparison between groups was conducted using the chi-square test. Comparison of ordinal data between groups was conducted using the Mann-Whitney U test. The univariate analysis was conducted using the corresponding statistical methods based on data type, and variables with P<0.10 were included in multivariate analysis. Multivariate analysis was conducted using the Logistic stepwise regression model. Results:(1) Situations of TOLS. All 530 patients underwent radical resection of gallbladder carcinoma, and there were 498 cases achieving R 0 resection, 508 cases without ≥grade 2 intra-operative adverse events, 456 cases without postoperative grade B and grade C biliary leakage, 513 cases without postoperative grade B and grade C liver failure, 395 cases without severe com-plications within postoperative 90 days, 501 cases did not being re-admission caused by severe com-plications within postoperative 90 days. Of the 530 patients, 54.53%(289/530) of patients achieved postoperative TOLS, while 45.47%(241/530) of patients did not achieve postoperative TOLS. (2) Influencing factors of TOLS. Results of multivariate analysis showed that American Society of Anesthesiologists classification >grade Ⅱ, preoperative jaundice, T staging as T3?T4 stage, N staging as N2 stage, liver resection as right hemi-hepatectomy, and neoadjuvant therapy were independent factors influencing TOLS in patients undergoing radical resection of gallbladder carcinoma ( odds ratio=2.65, 1.87, 5.67, 5.65, 2.55, 3.34, 95% confidence interval as 1.22?5.72, 1.18?2.95, 2.51?12.82, 2.83?11.27, 1.41?4.63, 1.88?5.92, P<0.05). Conclusion:American Society of Anesthesiologists classification >grade Ⅱ, preoperative jaundice, T staging as T3?T4 stage, N staging as N2 stage, liver resection as right hemi-hepatectomy, and neoadjuvant therapy are independent factors influencing TOLS in patients undergoing radical resection of gallbladder carcinoma.

Objective:To explore the clinical efficacy of double traction-assisted reduction internal fixation and open reduction internal fixation in treating tibial plateau fractures.Methods:Data of patients with tibial plateau fracture admitted to West China Hospital of Sichuan University from January 2016 to December 2021 were retrospectively analyzed, and patients were divided into two groups according to treatment method: double traction-closed reduction internal fixation group (referred to as double traction group) and open reduction internal fixation group (referred to as open group). The double traction group included 21 patients, with 15 male and 6 female patients, with a mean age of 56.14±9.24 years (range, 45-72 years). Schatzker classification of fractures: 1 type I, 2 type II, 2 type III, 5 type IV, 6 type V, and 5 type VI. The open group included 29 patients, with 20 male and 9 female patients, with a mean age of 58.97±4.84 years (range, 47-70 years). Schatzker classification of fractures: 2 type I, 4 type II, 8 type III, 4 type IV, 5 type V, and 6 type VI. The surgical time, incision length, intraoperative blood loss, length of hospital stays, fracture healing time, postoperative time to full weight bearing, Rasmussen score, Hospital for Special Surgery (HSS) knee score, and complications were compared between the two groups of patients.Results:Both groups were followed up for 24 to 36 months, with an average of 30 months. There were significant differences in the operation time (92.61±6.22 min vs. 47.92±9.53 min), incision length (4.54±0.56 cm vs. 6.26±0.51 cm), and intraoperative blood loss (47.05±9.72 ml vs. 156.82±4.62 ml) between the group treated with closed reduction and double traction and the group treated with open reduction, with statistical significance ( t=18.83, 10.78, 53.24, P<0.001). There were also significant differences in the hospitalization time (5.35±0.41 d vs. 5.84±0.78 d), fracture healing time (3.72±0.74 months vs. 4.22±0.42 months), and time to full weight-bearing after surgery (11.29±1.10 weeks vs. 15.07±1.96 weeks) between the two groups, with statistical significance ( t=2.30, P=0.026; t=3.38, P<0.001; t=7.96, P<0.001). The HSS score at 6 months after surgery in the group treated with closed reduction and double traction was 81.61±2.32 points, which was higher than the score in the group treated with open reduction (77.66±4.01 points), with statistical significance ( t=4.07, P<0.001); at 12 months after surgery, the Rasmussen score in the group treated with closed reduction and double traction was 16.71±1.00 points, which was higher than the score in the group treated with open reduction (13.79±1.42 points), with statistical significance ( t=8.05, P<0.001). There was no fracture malunion or compartment syndrome occurred in both groups. The incidence of complications was 5% (1/21) in the group treated with closed reduction and double traction, and 10% (3/29) in the group treated with open reduction, with statistical significance (χ 2=0.52, P=0.473). Conclusion:The advantages of double traction-assisted reduction and internal fixation for tibial plateau fractures include minimal trauma, minimal bleeding, early mobilization, and shorter fracture healing time. It is a safe and reliable treatment method.
