Background: Diabetic macrovascular and microvascular complications often coexist and may share similar risk factors and pathological pathways. We aimed to investigate whether 10-year atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) risk, which is commonly assessed in diabetes management, can predict incident diabetic nephropathy (DN) and retinopathy (DR) in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Methods: This prospective cohort study enrolled 2,891 patients with clinically diagnosed T2DM who were free of ASCVD, nephropathy, or retinopathy at baseline in the Guangzhou (2017–2022) and Shaoguan (2019–2021) Diabetic Eye Study in southern China. The 10-year ASCVD risk was calculated by the Prediction for ASCVD Risk in China (China-PAR) equations. Multivariable- adjusted Cox proportional hazard models were developed to estimate hazard ratios (HRs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs). The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) was used to evaluate predictive capability. Results: During follow-up, a total of 171 cases of DN and 532 cases of DR were documented. Each 1% increment in 10-year ASCVD risk was associated with increased risk of DN (pooled HR, 1.122; 95% CI, 1.094 to 1.150) but not DR (pooled HR, 0.996; 95% CI, 0.979 to 1.013). The model demonstrated acceptable performance in predicting new-onset DN (pooled AUC, 0.670; 95% CI, 0.628 to 0.715). These results were consistent across cohorts and subgroups, with the association appearing to be more pronounced in women. Conclusion Ten-year ASCVD risk predicts incident DN but not DR in our study population with T2DM. Regular monitoring of ASCVD risk in routine diabetes practice may add to the ability to enhance population-based prevention for both macrovascular and microvascular diseases, particularly among women.

Bone remodeling and bone regeneration are essential for preserving skeletal integrity and maintaining mineral homeostasis.T cells,as key members of adaptive immunity,play a pivotal role in bone remodeling and bone regeneration by producing a range of cytokines and growth factors.In the physiological state,T cells are involved in the maintenance of bone homeostasis through interactions with mesenchymal stem cells,osteoblasts,and osteoclasts.In pathological states,T cells participate in the pathological process of different types of osteoporosis through interaction with estrogen,glucocorticoids,and parathyroid hormone.During fracture healing for post-injury repair,T cells play different roles during the inflammatory hematoma phase,the bone callus formation phase and the bone remodeling phase.Targeting T cells thus emerges as a potential strategy for regulating bone homeostasis.This article reviews the research progress on related mechanisms of T cells immunity involved in bone remodeling and bone regeneration,with a view to providing a scientific basis for targeting T cells to regulate bone remodeling and bone regeneration.

Objective:To investigate the risk factors for intraoperative hemorrhage during endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) for colorectal lesions.Methods:Data of 386 patients with colorectal lesions, who underwent ESD at The Third People's Hospital of Datong and its cooperative hospital, Nanjing Drum Tower Hospital, from December 2019 to August 2021 were retrospectively analyzed. The patients were divided into the hemorrhage group ( n=85) and the non-hemorrhage group ( n=301) according to intraoperative hemorrhage. The correlationship of patients'basic information, lesion-related factors and hemorrhage during colorectal ESD was analyzed. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression were used to identify the risk factors for intraoperative hemorrhage during ESD. The risk predictive model of intraoperative hemorrhage during ESD was established according to the screened risk factors, and receiver operator characteristic (ROC) curve was used to evaluate the predictive model. Results:Univariate logistic regression showed that a history of diabetes ( OR=2.340, P<0.05), a history of coronary atherosclerotic heart diseases ( OR=3.100, P<0.05), the lesion located in the rectum ( OR=3.272, P<0.05), longer lesion ( OR=1.093, P<0.05), wider lesion ( OR=1.057, P<0.05), larger lesion ( OR=1.126, P<0.05), depressed lesion ( OR=6.128, P<0.05), the laterally spreading lesion ( OR=2.651, P<0.05), the lesion infiltrated into the SM-S layer ( OR=0.088, P<0.05), the lesion infiltrated into the SM-D layer ( OR=0.174, P<0.05), the diameter of hemorrhage vessels 0.5~<1.0 times of the diameter of incision knife ( OR=246.854, P<0.05), the postoperative pathology as early cancer ( OR=7.000, P<0.05) were risk factors for intraoperative hemorrhage during ESD. Considering the quantitative relationship between the length, the width and the area of lesions, multi-factor models were constructed using the length and area of lesions respectively. Forward stepwise regression was used to screen variables and determine the final model, and the results showed that a history of coronary atherosclerotic heart diseases, the depressed lesion, the longer lesion, the larger lesion, the diameter of hemorrhage vessels 0.5~<1.0 times of the diameter of the incision knife were independent risk factors for intraoperative hemorrhage during ESD. The two modeling results of the lesion length and the lesion area were very similar. Therefore, lesion length was recommended to describe lesions in clinical practice. Conclusion:A history of coronary atherosclerotic heart disease, the depressed lesion, the longer lesion, the larger lesion, the diameter of vessels 0.5~<1.0 times of that of the incision knife are independent risk factors for intraoperative hemorrhage during ESD.

BACKGROUND: LY01005 (Goserelin acetate sustained-release microsphere injection) is a modified gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) agonist injected monthly. This phase III trial study aimed to evaluated the efficacy and safety of LY01005 in Chinese patients with prostate cancer. METHODS: We conducted a randomized controlled, open-label, non-inferiority trial across 49 sites in China. This study included 290 patients with prostate cancer who received either LY01005 or goserelin implants every 28 days for three injections. The primary efficacy endpoints were the percentage of patients with testosterone suppression ≤50 ng/dL at day 29 and the cumulative probability of testosterone ≤50 ng/dL from day 29 to 85. Non-inferiority was prespecified at a margin of -10%. Secondary endpoints included significant castration (≤20 ng/dL), testosterone surge within 72 h following repeated dosing, and changes in luteinizing hormone, follicle-stimulating hormone, and prostate specific antigen levels. RESULTS: On day 29, in the LY01005 and goserelin implant groups, testosterone concentrations fell below medical-castration levels in 99.3% (142/143) and 100% (140/140) of patients, respectively, with a difference of -0.7% (95% confidence interval [CI], -3.9% to 2.0%) between the two groups. The cumulative probabilities of maintaining castration from days 29 to 85 were 99.3% and 97.8%, respectively, with a between-group difference of 1.5% (95% CI, -1.3% to 4.4%). Both results met the criterion for non-inferiority. Secondary endpoints were similar between groups. Both treatments were well-tolerated. LY01005 was associated with fewer injection-site reactions than the goserelin implant (0% vs . 1.4% [2/145]). CONCLUSION: LY01005 is as effective as goserelin implants in reducing testosterone to castration levels, with a similar safety profile. TRIAL REGISTRATION ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT04563936.

【Objective】 To provide reference for formulating relatively unified quality control strategies and meeting the requirements of homogenization construction of blood banks across Chongqing area by retrospectively analyzing sampling results of different blood components during the past two years in all levels of blood banks in Chongqing area. 【Methods】 The key quality data of blood components prepared by 6 blood banks in Chongqing were analyzed retrospectively. According to the issuing units to the clinical during the past two years, the research objects were selected as leukocyte-depleted suspended RBCs, cryoprecipitate, pathogen inactivated fresh frozen plasma(FFP) and apheresis platelets. The quality data of the above-mentioned blood components from January 2019 to June 2021 were collected and analyzed. 【Results】 For leukocyte-depleted suspended RBCs(1U)prepared by 5 blood banks, statistically significant differences in Hb, residual white blood cells and hemolysis rate at the end of storage, except for Hct, were noticed(P<0.05). For cryoprecipitate, the content of blood coagulation factor Ⅷ and fibrinogen were statistically different among 3 blood banks in 1U specification(P<0.05) and among 5 blood banks in 2U specification(P<0.05). For pathogen inactivated FFP, the content of blood coagulation factor Ⅷ, plasma proteins, and residual methylene blue were statistically different among 3 blood banks(P<0.05). For apheresis platelets, Plt, white/red blood cells contamination and pH at the end of storage were statistically different among 3 blood banks(P<0.05). 【Conclusion】 The quality data of blood components, prepared by different blood banks, meet the requirements of national standard, however, certain differences are existing among blood banks.Key points during the process of collection, preparation, storage and transportation need to be cleared and unified, so as to reduce the differences between each other, and determine the direction and basis for homogeneity construction in the next step.

Objective:To investigate the clinical effect of free fibula flap transplantation in repairing the defect of mandibular osteoradionecrosis (ORN).Methods:A total of 151 mandibular ORN patients undergoing free fibular flap transplantation were selected from August 2005 to September 2020 in the Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hospital, Sun Yat-sen University. Among them, 109 patients were males and 42 patients were females, aged (54.1±10.1) (ranged 31-85) years old. The clinical data of the patients was collected and the survival rate of the flaps and postoperative function were calculated to evaluate the surgical efficacy. The χ 2 test was used for difference analysis. Results:Among the 151 patients, mandibular ORN caused by radiotherapy for nasopharyngeal carcinoma accounted for 79.5% (120/151). The average time for mandibular ORN appeared was 5(6) years after radiotherapy. Facial artery [57.2%(87/152)] and superior thyroid artery [32.9%(50/152)] were the main anastomotic arteries in the recipient area. There was no significant difference in the necrosis rates of the two flaps [10.3%(9/87) and 12.5% (5/50), respectively, P=0.949]. The main anastomotic veins in the recipient area were the external jugular vein [48.4%(135/279)] and the common facial vein [26.5%(74/279)]. Twenty-five cases (16.6%) had one vein anastomosed, and 126 cases (83.44%) had two veins anastomosed. There was no significant difference in the flap necrosis rate between the two conditions [20.0%(5/25) and 7.1%(9/126), respectively, P=0.100]. Ninety-seven cases (64.2%) used the peroneal musculocutaneous-fascia composite flap to repair the maxillofacial soft and hard tissue defects. Thirteen cases (8.6%) underwent the restorations with digital virtual surgery design, of which 5 cases were repaired with dental implants at the same time. After the operations, lower respiratory tract infection occurred in 17 patients (11.3%), and upper respiratory tract obstruction occurred in 3 cases (2.0%). The survival rate of the flap after operation was 90.7% (136/151), and 21 patients (13.9%) had flap vascular crisis. Delayed healing of maxillofacial wounds occurred in 33 cases (21.9%). After 3 to 24 months of follow-ups, 110 patients (76.9%) had no fistula inside/outside the oral cavity, 118 patients (82.5%) had an improvement in opening mouth of increasing (≥0.5 cm) after surgery, 135 patients (94.4%) had pain relief, 97 cases (67.8%) could eat normal diet, semi-liquid or soft food, and 137 cases (95.8%) were satisfied or basically satisfied with the treatment effects. Conclusions:The free fibular flap transplantation is an effective method to repair mandibular ORN defects. Preoperative vascular assessment is helpful for the selection of recipient vessels. Facial artery, superior thyroid artery, external jugular vein and common facial vein can be used as the main recipient vessels. The repair of the peroneal musculocutaneous-fascia composite flap facilitates the closure of internal and external fistulas. Digital technology can help to restore the maxillofacial shape more accurately, improve the patient′s occlusal and chewing function and enhance the quality of life of mandibular ORN patients.

Objective:To construct a rat model of hypothalamic obesity by two point electrical damage to the ventromedial hypothalamus and arcuate nucleus.Methods:Twenty adult male SD rats of SPF grade were randomly divided into experimental group and sham operation group.A 25GA (0.45 mm) solid iron needle was used, the needle was coated with an insulating layer, and the tip exposed a 0.5 mm conductive area.With reference to The Rat Brain in Stereotaxic Coordinates and using the stereotactic instrument (AP: -2.6 mm, ML: ± 0.6 mm, DV: -9.6 mm) as the coordinate, 1.5 mA current was continuously applied for 25 s, the ventromedial nucleus (VMH) and arcuate nucleus (ARC) of bilateral brain in SD rats was damaged.During the experiment, the body weight(BW), food intake(FI) and water intake(WI) of the two groups were recorded regularly.The rats were sacrificed on the 28th day after the operation, and the changes of periprenal fat mass and body length were measured.The changes of liver and adipose tissue were detected by HE staining method, leptin by ELISA, leptin receptor(LEPR) by Western blot.Results:(1) The body weight of rats in the experimental group ((427.5±17.7)g) and weight gain ((208.5±14.8)g) were significantly increased compared with the rats in the control group((349.2±17.7)g), ((136.2±21.4)g)on the 28th day after operation ( t=7.661, 6.806, both P<0.001). (2) The daily food intake of rats in the experimental group ((44.2±6.6)g) on the 28th day after surgery was significantly higher than that in the control group ((23.0±3.6)g) ( t=6.918, P<0.001). There was no significant difference of the daily drinking water of rats between experimental group((37.5±12.1)ml) and the control group ((35.0±11.8)ml) ( t=0.361, P=0.726). (3) Perikidney fat mass of experimental group rats ((13.4±2.7)g) significantly increased 28 days after operation compared with control group rats((6.3±0.9)g)( t=4.250, P<0.05). The naso-anal length of experimental group((21.8±0.4)cm) was significantly decreased compared with the control group ((23.4±0.2)cm) ( t=-6.788, P<0.01). The Lee index of the experimental group (348.9±8.5) was significantly higher than that of the control group(305.5±4.3)( t=7.898, P<0.01). (4) The serum leptin content ((8 324.10±159.00)μg/L) of the experimental group rats at 28 days after surgery was significantly higher than that of the control group((2 705.31±407.10)μg/L) ( t=25.712, P<0.001). The lateral hypothalamus area (LHA) LEPR protein expression (1.3±0.1) in the experimental group was significantly higher than that in the control group (0.9±0.1) ( t=4.932, P<0.01). Conclusion:Two-point electrical damage to bilateral VMH and ARC of rats can establish hypothalamic obese rat model.
