Radiopharmaceuticals play an important role in the diagnosis and treatment of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases， malignant tumors， central nervous system diseases， and other diseases. Under the urgent need for clinical diagnosis and treatment as well as medical development， the clinical research of radiopharmaceuticals has become a hotspot in international research. By analyzing the current situation of clinical research on radiopharmaceuticals in Europe， America， and China， the ethical issues of clinical research on radiopharmaceuticals were elaborated from four aspects， including lack of relevant laws and regulations， a higher risk of radiopharmaceuticals， dilemmas in ethical review， and insufficient radiation protection. Response principles and measures were proposed from four aspects， including improving regulations and policies， enhancing radiological protection for all parties involved in the research， strengthening ethical review， and reinforcing the training of relevant personnel， to enhance the quality and level of clinical research on radiopharmaceuticals.

With the increasing proportion of human papilloma virus(HPV)infection in the pathogenic factors of oro-pharyngeal cancer,a series of changes have occurred in the surgical treatment.While the treatment mode has been im-proved,there are still many problems,including the inconsistency between diagnosis and treatment modes,the lack of popularization of reconstruction technology,the imperfect post-treatment rehabilitation system,and the lack of effective preventive measures.Especially in terms of treatment mode for early oropharyngeal cancer,there is no unified conclu-sion whether it is surgery alone or radiotherapy alone,and whether robotic minimally invasive surgery has better func-tional protection than radiotherapy.For advanced oropharyngeal cancer,there is greater controversy over the treatment mode.It is still unclear whether to adopt a non-surgical treatment mode of synchronous chemoradiotherapy or induction chemotherapy combined with synchronous chemoradiotherapy,or a treatment mode of surgery combined with postopera-tive chemoradiotherapy.In order to standardize the surgical treatment of oropharyngeal cancer in China and clarify the indications for surgical treatment of oropharyngeal cancer,this expert consensus,based on the characteristics and treat-ment status of oropharyngeal cancer in China and combined with the international latest theories and practices,forms consensus opinions in multiple aspects of preoperative evaluation,surgical indication determination,primary tumor re-section,neck lymph node dissection,postoperative defect repair,postoperative complication management prognosis and follow-up of oropharyngeal cancer patients.The key points include:① Before the treatment of oropharyngeal cancer,the expression of P16 protein should be detected to clarify HPV status;② Perform enhanced magnetic resonance imaging of the maxillofacial region before surgery to evaluate the invasion of oropharyngeal cancer and guide precise surgical resec-tion of oropharyngeal cancer.Evaluating mouth opening and airway status is crucial for surgical approach decisions and postoperative risk prediction;③ For oropharyngeal cancer patients who have to undergo major surgery and cannot eat for one to two months,it is recommended to undergo percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy before surgery to effectively improve their nutritional intake during treatment;④ Early-stage oropharyngeal cancer patients may opt for either sur-gery alone or radiation therapy alone.For intermediate and advanced stages,HPV-related oropharyngeal cancer general-ly prioritizes radiation therapy,with concurrent chemotherapy considered based on tumor staging.Surgical treatment is recommended as the first choice for HPV unrelated oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma(including primary and re-current)and recurrent HPV related oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma after radiotherapy and chemotherapy;⑤ For primary exogenous T1-2 oropharyngeal cancer,direct surgery through the oral approach or da Vinci robotic sur-gery is preferred.For T3-4 patients with advanced oropharyngeal cancer,it is recommended to use temporary mandibu-lectomy approach and lateral pharyngotomy approach for surgery as appropriate;⑥ For cT1-2N0 oropharyngeal cancer patients with tumor invasion depth＞3 mm and cT3-4N0 HPV unrelated oropharyngeal cancer patients,selective neck dissection of levels ⅠB to Ⅳ is recommended.For cN+HPV unrelated oropharyngeal cancer patients,therapeutic neck dissection in regions Ⅰ-Ⅴ is advised;⑦ If PET-CT scan at 12 or more weeks after completion of radiation shows intense FDG uptake in any node,or imaging suggests continuous enlargement of lymph nodes,the patient should undergo neck dissection;⑧ For patients with suspected extracapsular invasion preoperatively,lymph node dissection should include removal of surrounding muscle and adipose connective tissue;⑨ The reconstruction of oropharyngeal cancer defects should follow the principle of reconstruction steps,with priority given to adjacent flaps,followed by distal pedicled flaps,and finally free flaps.The anterolateral thigh flap with abundant tissue can be used as the preferred flap for large-scale postoperative defects.

Objective To describe the distribution characteristics of knee and ankle joint range of motion and muscle atrophy related indexes in patients with Kashin-Beck disease(KBD)in Shaanxi Province so as to explore the correlation of knee and ankle joint range of motion(ROM)with muscle atrophy indexes and provide reference for clinical characteristics analysis of KBD patients.Methods To investigate the registered KBD patients from KBD areas in Shaanxi Province,we measured the general demographic data of the patients were collected and the ROM of the knee joint(flexion and extension),the ankle joint(dorsiflexion and plantar flexion),and the muscle atrophy related indexes such as the upper arm circumference,thigh circumference,calf circumference and grip strength.According to the population characteristics,i.e.,gender,age,body mass index(BMI)and KBD grade,the median and quartile of joint ROM and muscle atrophy of KBD patients were reported,and then the differences in each index among different groups were analyzed.Partial correlation analysis was used to explore the correlation between indicators after controlling for variables such as gender,age and BMI.Results A total of 480 patients with KBD were investigated in this study,who consisted of 249(51.9％)males and 231(48.1％)females,with an average age of(63.10±7.32)years and an average BMI of(23.49±8.90)kg/m2.The knee flexion ROM,knee extension ROM,ankle dorsiflexion ROM and ankle plantar flexion ROM were[105.0(95.0,120.0)]°,[0.0(-15.0,0.0)]°,[5.0(0.0,15.0)]° and[20.0(15.0,30.0)]°,respectively,in KBD patients in Shaanxi Province.The left thigh circumference,right thigh circumference,left calf circumference,right calf circumference,and upper arm circumference were[43.0(40.0,47.0)]cm,[43.0(39.0,47.0)]cm,[29.0(27.0,32.0)]cm,[29.5(27.0,32.0)]cm,[27.0(25.0,30.0)]cm,respectively.The left hand grip strength and right hand grip strength were[13.4(9.5,18.4)]kg and[13.9(9.8,18.2)]kg,respectively.With the increase of age,the extension range of the left and right knee joints of KBD patients showed a decreasing trend(H=31.499,31.847;all P＜0.001).The range of motion of bilateral knee flexion was higher in the normal BMI group than in the overweight or obese group,with statistically significant differences(H=7.753,12.333;P=0.021,0.002).The knee flexion,thigh circumference,and calf circumference of the left and right sides showed a decreasing trend under different KBD grades(H=14.345,17.256,8.000,8.462,8.558,9.633;all P＜0.05).Correlation analysis showed that knee flexion ROM was positively correlated with thigh circumference,calf circumference,and grip strength in patients with KBD(all P＜0.05).There was a positive correlation between knee extension ROM and thigh circumference in patients with KBD(P＜0.01).Conclusion The impaired joint ROM and muscle atrophy are serious in KBD patients in Shaanxi Province,and there is a correlation between joint motion and muscle atrophy.

Circular RNAs(CircRNAs)are a class of non-coding RNAs with a covalently closed-loop structure,high stability,and tissue specificity,with the production mechanisms different from linear RNAs.Recent studies have discovered that some CircRNAs can encode proteins via cap-independent translation mechanisms such as internal ribosome entry site,N6-methyladenosine,and rolling loop translation.The encoded proteins regulate homologous linear proteins or downstream signaling pathways via protein bait or other mecha-nisms,thereby exerting biological functions.Studies have shown that CircRNAs play a role in various diseases,especially in tumor progression,proliferation,invasion,and metastasis and immune regulation.Therefore,by elucidating the expression and roles of proteins encoded by CircRNAs in tumorigenesis and development,this pa-per is expected to provide new tumor markers and potential targets for tumor diagnosis and treatment.

Objective:To investigate the effects of compound Duzhong Jiangu Granules on joint function and gut microbiota in patients with Kashin-Beck disease.Methods:A single group pre- and post-experimental design was conducted, the patients with Kashin-Beck disease were selected as the subjects in Xunyi County, Xianyang City, Shaanxi Province; and treated with oral administration of compound Duzhong Jiangu Granules (12 g/bag, 1 bag/time, 3 times/day) for a period of 1 month. The improvement of joint function was evaluated using the joint dysfunction index scoring method before and after treatment. Morning stool samples of patients were collected and the changes in gut microbiota were analyzed before and after treatment using 16S rDNA sequencing technology.Results:A total of 87 patients with Kashin-Beck disease were included, including 44 males and 43 females; the age was (60.38 ± 7.12) years old, and the body mass index was (23.67 ± 3.59) kg/m 2. The comprehensive scores of joint dysfunction index for patients with Kashin-Beck disease before and after treatment were (7.27 ± 2.05) and (5.86 ± 2.01) points, respectively, and the difference was statistically significant ( t = 5.88, P < 0.001). The sequencing results of gut microbiota showed that there were statistically significant differences in the alpha diversity (chao1, observed species index) and beta diversity of gut microbiota in patients with Kashin-Beck disease before and after treatment ( Z = - 5.08, - 5.03, R = 0.09, P < 0.001). In the distribution of gut microbiota, Firmicutes was the dominant phylum, with relative abundances of 50.21% and 52.09% before and after treatment, respectively; the Bifidobacterium was the dominant bacterial genus, with relative abundances of 16.83% and 18.81% before and after treatment, respectively. At the genus level, a total of 17 gut microbiota genera were screened out, among which the relative abundances of Hafnia-Obesumbacterium, Gammaproteobacteria_unclassified, Acinetobacter, Pantoea, Leuconostoc, and Akkermanisia were significantly higher than before treatment ( Z = - 2.40, - 2.24, - 2.06, - 3.59, - 2.24, - 2.11, P < 0.05). The relative abundances of Dubosiella, Selenomonas, Anaeroplasma, Lachnospiraceae_ NK4A136_group, Rikenella, Prevotella, Megasphaera, Lactobacillus, Prevotella-9, Phascolarctobacterium, and Desulfovibrio were significantly lower than before treatment ( Z = - 9.38, - 2.61, - 2.18, - 8.43, - 2.45, - 2.46, - 2.49, - 7.29, - 2.29, - 2.55, - 2.08, P < 0.05). Conclusions:Compound Duzhong Jiangu Granules can effectively improve the joint function of patients with Kashin-Beck disease, and alter the diversity and richness of the gut microbiota community.

Objective:To explore the mediating role of psychological resilience between work stress and sleep quality in psychiatric nurses.Methods:From April to August 2023, convenience sampling was used to select 457 psychiatric nurses working in three psychiatric hospitals in Henan Province as the research subjects. The survey was conducted using the General Information Questionnaire, the Chinese version of the Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale (CD-RISC), the Chinese Nursing Stressor Scale (CNSS), and the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI). Pearson correlation was used to analyze the correlation between psychological resilience, work stress, and sleep quality among psychiatric nurses. SPSS 26.0 software was used to analyze the data, and Process macro program and Bootstrap method were used to test the mediating effect.Results:Among 457 psychiatric nurses, the total scores of the Chinese version of CD-RISC, CNSS, and PSQI were (58.89±13.27), (78.02±14.31), and (8.04±3.46), respectively. Pearson correlation showed that work stress was positively correlated with sleep quality ( r=0.703, P<0.01). In contrast, work stress was negatively correlated with psychological resilience ( r=-0.413, P<0.01), and psychological resilience was negatively correlated with sleep quality ( r=-0.712, P<0.01). Psychological resilience partially mediated the relationship between work stress and sleep quality, with a mediating effect value of 0.051, accounting for 30.0% of the total effect. Conclusions:Psychological resilience partially mediates the relationship between work stress and sleep quality in psychiatric nurses. Nursing managers should attach importance to and enhance the psychological resilience of psychiatric nurses, regularly relieve stress, improve sleep quality, and enhance the physical and mental health of nurses.

Objective To explore the influencing factors of medication experience in patients with schizophrenia based on benefit-risk perception.Methods Patients with stable schizophrenia who were hospitalized in 2 tertiary psychiatric hospitals in Heilongjiang Province from September to December 2023 were selected by convenience sampling method.A convergent mixed method was adopted.In quantitative study,data of 400 patients were collected by general situation questionnaire,Subjective Well-being Under Neuroleptic Treatment Scale,the Living with Medicines Questionnaire,Beliefs about Medication Questionnaire,Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale.Binary logistic regression analysis was used to explore the influencing factors of medication experience in patients with schizophrenia.15 patients with adverse medication experience in quantitative study were selected for qualitative study,and the interview data were sorted and analyzed according to the topic frame analysis method.Results Quantitative results:medication burden,medication beliefs,and psychiatric symptoms of patients with schizophrenia were influential factors of medication experience(P<0.05).Qualitative results:the medication experience of schizophrenia patients includes 4 themes,namely perceived necessity of medication,perceived benefit of medication,perceived risk of medication,and the need for multi-party cooperation to improve the medication experience.The results of quantitative and qualitative research are complementary in terms of perceived benefit,consistent in terms of perceived risk,and expansive in terms of perceived value.Conclusion Psychiatric nurses can reduce patients'perceived risk of medication,enhance the perceived benefit of medication,and then improve patients'adverse medication experience and promote mental rehabilitation.

We developed a method for accurate quantification of the intact virus particles in inactivated avian influenza virus feedstocks. To address the problem of impurities interference in the detection of inactivated avian influenza virus feedstocks by direct high performance size exclusion chromatography (HPSEC), we firstly investigated polyethylene glycol (PEG) precipitation and ion exchange chromatography (IEC) for H5N8 antigen purification. Under the optimized conditions, the removal rate of impurity was 86.87% in IEC using DEAE FF, and the viral hemagglutination recovery was 100%. HPSEC was used to analyze the pretreated samples. The peak of 8.5-10.0 min, which was the characteristic adsorption of intact virus, was analyzed by SDS-PAGE and dynamic light scattering. It was almost free of impurities and the particle size was uniform with an average particle size of 127.7 nm. After adding antibody to the IEC pretreated samples for HPSEC detection, the characteristic peak disappeared, indicating that IEC pretreatment effectively removed the impurities. By coupling HPSEC with multi-angle laser scattering technique (MALLS), the amount of intact virus particles in the sample could be accurately quantified with a good linear relationship between the number of virus particles and the chromatographic peak area (R²=0.997). The established IEC pretreatment-HPSEC-MALLS assay was applied to accurate detection of the number of intact virus particles in viral feedstocks of different subtypes (H7N9), different batches and different concentrations, all with good applicability and reproducibility, Relative standard deviation < 5%, n=3.

Objective:To investigate the role of a disintegrin and metalloprotease 12 (ADAM12) gene in chondrocyte injury in patients with Kashin-Beck disease (KBD) and its impact on genes related to insulin-like growth factor binding protein (IGFBP).Methods:Articular cartilage samples were obtained from 5 patients with KBD and 5 control subjects admitted to Honghui Hospital Affiliated to Xi'an Jiaotong University. Chondrocytes were extracted and cultured in vitro. Quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR) and Western blotting were used to detect the expression levels of ADAM12 mRNA and protein in chondrocytes of patients with KBD and control subjects, respectively. Subsequently, ADAM12 gene overexpression was performed using lentivirus in chondrocytes of patients with KBD. MTT assay was used to detect changes in cell viability after ADAM12 gene overexpression, and qRT-PCR was used to detect the mRNA expression levels of chondrocyte differentiation related genes SRY-box transcription factor 9 (SOX9) and type Ⅱ collagen (COLⅡ), apoptosis-related gene B-cell lymphoma/leukaemia-2-associated X protein (BAX), and anabolic related genes IGFBP3 and IGFBP5. Results:The expression levels of ADAM12 mRNA and protein in chondrocytes of patients with KBD (0.57 ± 0.05, 0.81 ± 0.07) were significantly lower than those of control subjects (1.00 ± 0.00, 1.00 ± 0.00), and the differences were statistically significant ( t = - 24.50, - 3.61, P < 0.05). The results of MTT assay showed that the cell viability of chondrocytes in ADAM12 overexpression group (1.09 ± 0.05) was higher than that in empty vector control group (1.00 ± 0.08), and the difference was statistically significant ( t = 4.12, P = 0.031). The results of qRT-PCR showed that compared with empty vector control group, the mRNA expression levels of IGFBP3 (2.35 ± 0.79 vs 0.96 ± 0.25), IGFBP5 (2.13 ± 0.30 vs 0.98 ± 0.34), SOX9 (2.92 ± 0.51 vs 0.94 ± 0.36) and COLⅡ (6.45 ± 2.81 vs 0.87 ± 0.19) in ADAM12 overexpression group were significantly increased, and the differences were statistically significant ( t = 3.19, 5.16, 6.27, 4.10, P < 0.05); while the expression level of BAX mRNA (0.31 ± 0.06 vs 1.02 ± 0.22) was significantly decreased, and the difference was statistically significant ( t = - 11.16, P < 0.001). Conclusion:The ADAM12 gene may have a role in inhibiting apoptosis and promoting differentiation in chondrocyte injury in patients with KBD, and its overexpression can increase expression of IGFBP3 and IGFBP5.
