Objective To investigate the protective effect of sodium (s)-2-(dithiocarboxylato((2R,3R,4R,5R,6R)-2,3,4,5,6-pentahydroxyhexyl) amino)-4-(methylthio) butanoate (GMDTC) against cisplatin-induced toxicity during antitumor treatment. Methods Specific pathogen-free female SD rats were inoculated with LLC-WRC-256 tumor cells to establish tumor-bearing models, which were randomly divided into the model control group, cisplatin control group, and low-, medium-, and high-dose GMDTC groups, with 10 rats in each group. Another negative control group with 10 rats was included. Rats in the cisplatin control group and the three GMDTC dose groups were injected intravenously with cisplatin at a dose of 5 mg/kg body mass for one time. After 2.0 hours, rats in the three GMDTC dose groups were injected intravenously with GMDTC at doses of 27, 54, and 108 mg/kg body mass, once per day for five consecutive days. Tumor volume, platinum levels in biological samples (whole blood, urine, kidney, and tumor tissue), serum creatinine (Cr) and urea nitrogen (BUN) levels were measured at different time points. The tumor mass was measured, the pathological changes of renal tissue were observed, and the complete blood count was tested. Results The dilation of renal tubules, cell necrosis and shedding, and the formation of renal tubule patterns in the kidneys of rats in the medium- and high-dose GMDTC groups were significantly reduced compared with those in the cisplatin control group. The tumor volume of rats in the cisplatin control group and the three GMDTC dose groups decreased on the 3rd, 5th and 7th days after cisplatin administration, and the tumor weight decreased on the 7th days compared with the model control group (all P<0.05). However, there was no significant difference in the above indexes among the four groups (all P>0.05). The levels of serum Cr and BUN of rats in the cisplatin control group on the 3rd, 5th, and 6th days after cisplatin administration, as well as the score of renal tubular injury degree on the 7th day, were higher than those in the negative control group and the model control group (all P<0.05). The serum Cr levels of rates on the 3rd and 5th days after cisplatin administration, the serum BUN levels on the 5th day in the medium- and high-dose GMDTC groups, the score of renal tubular injury degree, and renal platinum level on the 7th day decreased compared with the cisplatin control group (all P<0.05), while the serum Cr and BUN levels on the 6th day and the whole-blood platinum levels in the high-dose GMDTC group decreased (all P<0.05). The urinary platinum levels of rats in the three GMDTC dose groups increased on the 1st day after GMDTC administration (all P<0.05), but decreased on the 3rd day compared with the cisplatin control group (all P<0.05). The counts of white blood cells, neutrophils, lymphocytes and platelets of rats in the cisplatin control group were lower than those in the model control group (all P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the above indexes of rats between the three GMDTC dose groups and the cisplatin control group (all P>0.05). Conclusion Intravenous administration of GMDTC at doses of 54 or 108 mg/kg body mass effectively reduce the nephrotoxicity of cisplatin-treated rats with LLC-WRC-256 tumors without affecting the antitumor effect of cisplatin.

Objective:To analyze the treatment outcomes and prognoses of children with head and neck non-parameningeal rhabdomyosarcoma (HNnPM RMS).Methods:A retrospective analysis was performed on the clinical data of children with HNnPM RMS admitted to Beijing Children′s Hospital from September 2012 to September 2022. The clinical features, comprehensive treatment modes and prognoses of the patients were analyzed. The overall survival rate (OS) and event free survival rate (EFS) were calculated using the Kaplan-Meier method, and univariate analysis was performed using the Log-rank test.Results:A total of 70 children were included in this study, 38 males and 32 females, with a median age of 47 months (2-210 months). Pathological subtypes including the embryonal in 27 cases, the alveolar in 36 cases and the spindle cell and sclerosing in 7 cases. Thirty children (83.3%) with alveolar type were positive for FOXO1 gene fusion. All 70 children underwent chemotherapy, including 38 with neoadjuvant chemotherapy and 32 with adjuvant chemotherapy. Sixty of 70 children underwent surgery, of whom, 10 underwent two or more surgeries. There were 63 children underwent radiotherapy, including 54 with intensity-modulated radiation therapy, 4 with particle implantation and 5 with proton therapy. The median follow-up was 45 (5-113) months, the 5-year OS was 73.2%, and the 5-year EFS was 57.7%. Univariate analysis showed lymph node metastasis ( χ2=5.022, P=0.025), distant metastasis ( χ2=8.258, P=0.004), and high Intergroup Rhabdomyosarcoma Study (IRS) group ( χ2=9.859, P=0.029) as risk factors for poor prognosis. Before June 2016, the 5-year OS based on BCH-RMS-2006 scheme was 63.6%, and after 2016, the 5-year OS based on CCCG-RMS-2016 scheme was 79.6%. Conclusion:Multidisciplinary combined standardized treatment can offer good treatment outcome and prognosis for children with HNnPM RMS. Local control is a key to the efficacy of comprehensive treatment.

Osteoporotic proximal humeral fracture (OPHF) is one of the common osteoporotic fractures in the aged, with an incidence only lower than vertebral compression fracture, hip fracture, and distal radius fracture. OPHF, secondary to osteoporosis and characterized by poor bone quality, comminuted fracture pattern, slow healing, and severely impaired shoulder joint function, poses a big challenge to the current clinical diagnosis and treatment. In the field of diagnosis, treatment, and rehabilitation of OPHF, traditional Chinese and Western medicine have accumulated rich experience and evidence from evidence-based medicine and achieved favorable outcomes. However, there is still a lack of guidance from a relevant consensus as to how to integrate the advantages of the two medical systems and achieve the integrated diagnosis and treatment. To promote the diagnosis and treatment of OPHF with integrated traditional Chinese and Western medicine, relevant experts from Orthopedic Expert Committee of Geriatric Branch of Chinese Association of Gerontology and Geriatrics, Youth Osteoporosis Group of Orthopedic Branch of Chinese Medical Association, Osteoporosis Group of Orthopedic Surgeon Branch of Chinese Medical Doctor Association, and Osteoporosis Committee of Shanghai Association of Integrated Traditional Chinese and Western Medicine have been organized to formulate Expert consensus on the diagnosis and treatment of osteoporotic proximal humeral fracture with integrated traditional Chinese and Western medicine ( version 2024) by searching related literatures and based on the evidences from evidence-based medicine. This consensus consists of 13 recommendations about the diagnosis, treatment and rehabilitation of OPHF with integrated traditional Chinese medicine and Western medicine, aimed at standardizing, systematizing, and personalizing the diagnosis and treatment of OPHF with integrated traditional Chinse and Western medicine to improve the patients ′ function.

Objective:To investigate the clinical efficacy of single-port and mini-three-port laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (MTP-SG) for obesity.Methods:The propensity score matching and retrospective cohort study was conducted. The clinical data of 364 obesity patients in the Chinese Obesity and Metabolic Surgery Database who were admitted to The First Affiliated Hospital of Jinan University from July 2016 to December 2023 were collected. There were 79 males and 285 females, aged (31±9)years. Of 364 patients, 67 cases undergoing single-port laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (SP-SG) were divided into the SP group, and 297 cases undergoing MTP-SG were divided into the MTP group. Propensity score matching was done by the 1∶1 nearest neighbor matching method. The clamp value was set as 0.1. Measurement data with normal distribution were expressed as Mean± SD, and t test was used for comparison between groups. Measurement data with skewed distribution were expressed as M( Q1, Q1), and the rank sum test was used for comparison between groups. Count data were expressed as absolute numbers, and comparison between groups was analyzed using the chi-square test or Fisher exact probability. Results:(1) Propensity score matching and comparison of general data of patients between the two groups after matching. Of 364 patients, 126 cases were successfully matched, including 63 cases in the SP group and 63 cases in the MTP group. After propensity score matching, the confounding bias of gender, body mass, body mass index (BMI), waist circumference, waist hip ratio were eliminated between the two groups. (2) Intraoperative and post-operative conditions. Both groups of patients successfully completed laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy. After propensity score matching, the operation time, volume of intraoperative blood loss, number of postoperative painkillers used, number of postoperative antiemetics used, duration of postoperative hospital stay, duration of total hospital stay, surgical cost, and total hospitalization cost of the 63 pati-ents in SP group were 101(90,120)minutes, 10(10,10)mL, 1.0(1.0,2.5)times, 3.0(1.0,5.0)times, 4(3,5)days, 7(5,8)days, 4.1(3.5,4.3) ten thousand yuan, and (6.4±0.8) ten thousand yuan, respectively. The above indicators of the 27 patients in MTP group were 100(90,120)minutes, 10(10,15)mL, 2.0(1.0,4.0)times, 4.0(3.0,5.0)times, 3(3,4)days, 5(5,6)days, 3.2(2.8,4.2) ten thousand yuan, and (5.8±0.8) ten thousand yuan, respectively. There were significant differences in number of postoperative antiemetics used, duration of postoperative hospital stay, duration of total hospital stay and total hospitalization cost between the two groups ( Z=-2.39, -3.93, -3.03, t=4.04, P<0.05), and there was no significant difference in operation time, volume of intraoperative blood loss, number of post-operative painkillers used and surgical cost between the two groups ( Z=-0.49, -1.00, -1.23, -1.47, P>0.05). (3) Follow-up. One hundred and ninety five of the 364 patients conducted postoperative 1 month follow-up, including 25 patients in the SP group and 170 patients in the MTP group, and no patient experienced complications such as gastric leakage, infection, or incisional hernia. Both groups of patients had good surgical incisions. After propensity score matching, the change in BMI (ΔBMI), percentage of total weight loss (%TWL), and percentage of excess weight loss (%EWL) of 24 patients in the SP group were (3.7±1.4)kg/m 2, 11.0%±3.0%, 52.6%±30.0%, respectively. The above indicators of 40 patients in the MTP group were (4.1±1.3)kg/m 2, 11.1%±2.8%, 41.8%±19.1%, respectively. Patients who conducted the postoperative 12 month follow-up were 21 and 131 in the SP group and the MTP group, respectively. After propensity score matching, the ΔBMI, %TWL and %EWL of 15 patients in the SP group were (8.7±4.1)kg/m 2, 26.2%±9.8%, 130.0%±45.1%, respectively. The above indicators of 36 patients in the MTP group were (9.8±4.0)kg/m 2, 27.2%± 8.7%, 107.1%±40.7%, respectively. Conclusion:Both SP-SG and MTP-SG can be used to treat obesity patients and achieve satisfactory short-term results.

Parkinson′s disease (PD) is one of the neurodegenerative diseases with high incidence in middle-aged and elderly people, and its prodromal stage lasts for several years to decades, markers of disease progression in prodromal stage are important basis for early recognition and diagnosis of PD. Current studies have shown that rapid eye movement sleep behavior disorder (RBD) is the specific clinical prodromal symptoms of PD, and has some of the same mechanisms as PD. Part of the same mechanisms develop regularly in the process of RBD converting to PD, which may produce valuable prodromal markers of PD. This paper reviews the common mechanisms of PD and RBD, in order to provide some ideas for the early clinical diagnosis and treatment of PD.

Periarticular fracture of the shoulder is a common type of fractures in the elderly. Postoperative adverse events such as internal fixation failure, humeral head ischemic necrosis and upper limb dysfunction occur frequently, which seriously endangers the exercise and health of the elderly. Compared with the fracture with normal bone mass, the osteoporotic periarticular fracture of the shoulder is complicated with slow healing and poor rehabilitation, so the clinical management becomes more difficult. At present, there is no targeted guideline or consensus for this type of fracture in China. In such context, experts from Youth Osteoporosis Group of Chinese Orthopedic Association, Orthopedic Expert Committee of Geriatrics Branch of Chinese Association of Gerontology and Geriatrics, Osteoporosis Group of Youth Committee of Chinese Association of Orthopedic Surgeons and Osteoporosis Committee of Shanghai Association of Chinese Integrative Medicine developed the Chinese expert consensus on the diagnosis and treatment of osteoporotic periarticular fracture of the shoulder in the elderly ( version 2023). Nine recommendations were put forward from the aspects of diagnosis, treatment strategies and rehabilitation of osteoporotic periarticular fracture of the shoulder, hoping to promote the standardized, systematic and personalized diagnosis and treatment concept and improve functional outcomes and quality of life in elderly patients with osteoporotic periarticular fracture of the shoulder.

Objective:To reconstruct the dose of nasopharyngeal carcinoma and verify the results of the whole-process radiotherapy plan based on log files and cone beam CT (CBCT).Methods:A total of 15 patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma who received volumetric modulated arc therapy (VMAT) with Halcyon accelerator in the Cancer Center of Union Hospital, Tongji Medical College, Huazhong University of Science and Technology from February to September 2022 were retrospectively selected. Log files and CBCT for all fractionated radiotherapy were recorded. The errors of monitor unit (MU), gantry angle, and multi-leaf collimator (MLC) leaf position per control point were analyzed. The adaptive CT (aCT) were generated according to CBCT and planned CT (pCT) using a commercial software Velocity TM, and the similarities among aCT, pCT and CBCT were analyzed. The original plan was modified from the log files and imported into the treatment planning system to calculate the delivered dose on the corresponding fractionated aCT to reconstruct the fractionated dose. And all the reconstructed doses were mapped back to pCT to obtain the cumulative dose. Theγpass ratios with criteria of 2 mm/2% and 2 mm/3% and the dose differences between the planned dose and the cumulative dose in the planning target volume (PTV) and organs at risk (OAR) were compared. Results:The root mean square (RMS) and the 95th percentile of the errors of MU, gantry angle and MLC leaf position errors were within an acceptable range. The aCT generated by Velocity TM had the anatomical structure of CBCT and the resolution, contrast, noise characteristics of pCT, which could be directly used for dose calculation. Compared with the planned dose, the changes of V 70 Gy of nasopharyngeal primary tumor (PTV nx), V 68 Gy of cervical glands (PTV nd) and V 60 Gy of planning target volume (PTV1) were -0.88%±1.91%, -2.99%±2.99% and -0.63%±0.93%, respectively, and V 40 Gy of parotid gland was increased to 2.65%±2.63%. Cumulative dose showed different degrees of PTV dose decrease ( P<0.05) and parotid dose was increased ( P<0.05). The γ pass ratio (2 mm/3%) between the cumulative dose and planned dose was 97.3%±2.7% and >95.0% in 86.7% of patients. Conclusions:Based on the log files and CBCT, the whole-process dose reconstruction of nasopharyngeal carcinoma patients can be carried out. According to the results of dose reconstruction, the radiotherapy effect of the target area and OAR can be quantitatively evaluated. In the case of high dose coverage and conformity of the original plan, the reconstruction results show that the cumulative dose coverage of the target area is decreased, whereas that of the parotid gland is increased.
