Mental state is an important part of the normal life activities of the human body, and it is also the most external expression and the most easily obtained information of the physical condition. The normal activities of the mind depend on the normal operation of the viscera, qi, and blood, and are a unified whole that prospers together and suffers together. The theory of the five-spirit-viscera in the Yellow Emperor’s Inner Classic revealed that the normal mental activities of the human body were dominated by the five internal organs, that is, the five internal organs were the body and the five spirits were the function. And it highlighted the viewpoint that the five internal organs store the spirits and are actually one. The heart governs the spirit and belongs to the four internal organs. On this basis, Synopsis of Golden Chamber used the internal organs to diagnose and treat mental diseases, integrating the theory of the five spirits into it, forming a unique method of diagnosis and treatment with the heart as the leading factor and regulating the qi and blood of the four internal organs. It identified the pathogenesis of diseases such as pathogenic crying, lily disease, and hysteria from five levels: heart deficiency and weak qi, heart-lung disharmony, heart-liver disharmony, the heart of the loss of the spleen nourishment, and disharmony between heart and kidney. The treatment was mainly to replenish the deficiency of the viscera and eliminate the pathogens, reflecting the characteristics of regulating the mind and calming the four internal organs. This unique view on diagnosis and treatment has profoundly influenced the diagnosis and treatment theories of mental illnesses by later doctors, and is of great significance to the current clinical treatment of such illnesses.

Objective To investigate the relationship between the expression levels of long non-coding RNA(lncRNA)metastasis-associated lung adenocarcinoma transcript 1(MALAT1)and leptin levels in the patients with multiple myeloma,as well as the role in the diagnosis and prognosis of multiple myeloma.Meth-ods A total of 60 patients with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma in this hospital from January 2018 to Oc-tober 2020 were selected as the patient group.Additionally,60 healthy individuals during the same period were recruited as the control group.The levels of serum lncRNA MALAT1 and leptin in the test population were detected.The correlation between the two and thier ratio as well as their role in disease prognosis were invest-gated.Results The expression levels of serum lncRNA MALAT1 and leptin in the patients group were signif-icantly higher than those in the control group,and the difference was statistically significant(P＜0.05).A-mong the various stages of Durie-Salmon(DS)staging,the expression levels of lncRNA MALAT1 and leptin from stage I,stage Ⅱ and stage Ⅲ were in turn from high to low,and the differences were statistically signifi-cant(P＜0.05).Among different immune types,the expression level of lncRNA MALAT1 in the patients with light chain type was highest,which in those with non-secretory type was lowest.The leptin levels in the patients with light chain type,IgG type,IgA type and non-secretory type were in turn from high to low,and the differences were statistically significant(P＜0.05).Furthermore,the expression level of lncRNA MAL-AT1 was positively correlated with leptin(r=0.41,P＜0.05).There were statistically significant differences in the expression levels of lncRNA MALAT1,leptin levels,and lncRNA MALAT1/leptin ratio between before and after treatment in the patients with treatment effect(P＜0.05).However,there was no statistically sig-nificant difference in these two indices between before and after treatment in the patients with no treatment effect(P＞0.05).After treatment,the median survival time for the patients with serum lncRNA MALAT1/leptin ratio＜3 was 27 months(95％CI:21.949-27.120),while which for the patients with serum lncRNA MALAT1/leptin ratio 3 was 14 months(95％CI:12.076-22.199),and the difference was statistically sig-nificant(P=0.014).Conclusion lncRNA MALAT1 and leptin exhibit a certain extent of synergistic effect in the de-velopment and progression of multiple myeloma.The ratio of these two could be used to evaluate the prognosis of the patients.

Objective:To investigate the risk factors and prognostic value of the textbook outcome (TO) in patients with advanced gastric cancer (AGC) who underwent neoadjuvant chemotherapy followed by surgical resection.Methods:This is a retrospective cohort study. A total of 253 patients with AGC who underwent neoadjuvant chemotherapy combined with gastrectomy and D2 lymphadenectomy in the Department of Gastric Surgery, Fujian Medical University Union Hospital from January 2010 to December 2019 were retrospectively included. There were 195 males and 58 females, aged (60.3±10.0) years (range: 27 to 75 years). The patients were then divided into the TO group ( n=168) and the non-TO group ( n=85). Multivariate Logistic regression was used to analyze the independent predictors of TO. Univariate and multivariate Cox analysis were used to analyze independent prognosis factors for overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival (DFS). Propensity score matching was performed to balance the TO and non-TO groups, and the Kaplan-Meier method was used to calculate survival rates and draw survival curves. Results:Among the 253 patients, 168 patients (66.4%) achieved TO. The Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group score ( OR=0.488, 95% CI: 0.278 to 0.856, P=0.012) and ypN stage ( OR=0.626, 95% CI:0.488 to 0.805, P<0.01) were independently predictive of TO. Multivariate analysis revealed that TO was an independent risk factor for both OS ( HR=0.662, 95% CI: 0.457 to 0.959, P=0.029) and DFS ( HR=0.687, 95% CI: 0.483 to 0.976, P=0.036). After matching, the 5-year OS rate (42.2% vs. 27.8%) and the 5-year DFS rate (37.5% vs. 27.8%) were significantly higher in the TO group than in the non-TO group (both P<0.05). Furthermore, patients in the non-TO group benefited significantly from postoperative chemotherapy (both P<0.05), but those in the TO group did not (both P>0.05). Conclusion:TO is an independent prognosis factor in patients undergoing neoadjuvant chemotherapy and surgery for AGC and is associated with postoperative chemotherapy benefits.

Objective:To compare and evaluate recurrence patterns after robotic-assisted gastrectomy (RAG) versus laparoscopic-assisted gastrectomy (LAG).Methods:This was a retrospective cohort study of 2915 consecutive patients with gastric adenocarcinoma confirmed by postoperative histology as T1-4aN0-3M0, who had undergone minimally invasive radical gastrectomy at four large gastric cancer treatment centers (Fujian Medical University Union Hospital: 1426 patients; the First Affiliated Hospital, Nanchang University: 1108; Tianjin Medical University Cancer Institute and Hospital: 196; and First Affiliated Hospital of Xi'an Jiaotong University: 185 cases) between 1 January 2015 and 30 June 2019. 930 patients had undergone RAG (RAG group) and 1985 had undergone LAG (LAG group). We assessed the following characteristics: age, sex, body mass index, American Society of Anesthesiologists score, comorbidities, tumor size, extent of surgery, extent of lymph node dissection, pT, pN, year of surgery, and adjuvant chemotherapy, after propensity score matching (1:1). There were no significant differences in baseline clinical characteristics between the two groups formed by propensity score matching (837 in each group) (all P>0.05). The 3-year recurrence-free survival (RFS), recurrence pattern, and conditional RFS were compared. Results:We detected no significant differences in the overall recurrence rate at 3 years (128/837 [15.3%] vs. 141/837 [16.8%], P=0.387) or time to recurrence (15.7±8.1 months vs. 16.4±8.4 months, P=0.449) between the RAG and LAG groups. Peritoneal recurrence was the most common type of recurrence in both groups (55 [6.6%] vs. 69 [8.2%], P=0.524). The difference in 3-year RFS between the RAG and LAG groups was not statistically significant (83.2% vs. 82.5%, P=0.781). We found that age > 60 years, total gastrectomy, and worse pT stage and pN stage were independent risk factors for recurrence in the study patients (all P<0.05), whereas the surgical procedure (RAG or LAG) was not an independent risk factor for RFS ( P=0.242). The 3-year conditional RFS at various time points was comparable between the two groups (1 year postoperatively: 84.6% vs. 84.7%, P=0.793; 3 years postoperatively: 91.5% vs. 94.9%, P=0.647). Conclusions:In this multicenter study of patients with locally resectable gastric cancer, we demonstrated that RAG performed by surgeons at large gastric cancer centers is not inferior to LAG in 3-year recurrence rate or recurrence patterns.

Objective: To investigate the changes of microorganisms and metabolites in joint effusion of patients with Rheumatoid arthritis(RA), Osteoarthritis(OA) and Urarthritis(UA). To provide new ideas for the study of the effect of microbiota on the pathogenesis of arthritis. Methods: Joint effusion samples were collected from 20 patients with RA, 20 patients with OA, and 20 patients with UA. 16S rRNA gene sequencing and untargeted ultra-high performance Liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry(LC-MS) were used to explore the differences in microorganisms and metabolites among the three groups. Pearson correlation analysis was used to detect the correlation between effusion microbiota and metabolites. Results: There were differences in microbial diversity and microbiota composition among the three groups. Combined with VIP>1 from OPLS-DA andP<0.05 from two-tailed Students t-test, 45 differential metabolites(Between RA and OA groups), 38 differential metabolites(Between UA and OA groups) and 16 differential metabolites(Between RA and UA groups), were identified. GO analysis and KEGG pathway analysis showed that the differential metabolic pathways among the three groups were mainly concentrated in citric acid cycle(TCA cycle), nucleotide metabolism, amino acid metabolism and glycolysis pathway. Correlation analysis of joint effusion microbiota and metabolites suggested that bacteria enriched in the three groups of joint effusion, such asPrevotella,Clostridium ruminosus,Prevotellaceae＿UCG-001, were related to many key metabolites such as lysozyme, uric acid, glucose, and L-glutamine. Conclusion This study shows that there are a variety of bacterial flora in joint cavity effusion of RA, OA, and UA patients, and the differential metabolites produced by them are involved in the pathogenesis of the three types of arthritis by affecting a variety of metabolic pathways.

Objective:To explore the feasibility and recent efficacy of iliac vein molding and stenting in daytime treatment mode in patients with iliac vein stenosis.Methods:Medical records of iliac vein molding and stenting performed in the ipsilateral great saphenous vein approach conducted from February 2017 to March 2022 were retrospective reviewed.There were 21 cases,6 males and 15 females.Age ranged from 37 to 79 years[(62.5±10.2)years].The stenosis in the 21 limbs simply involved the common iliac veins in 16 patients,2 patients had the simple and external iliac veins,and both the total and external iliac veins in 3 patients.Both iliac vein molding and iliac vein stenting were performed through the ipsilateral great saphenous vein approach.The patients with simple iliac vein stenosis with great saphenous vein valve insufficiency also underwent radiofrequency closure of great saphenous vein and flexural vein sclerosis therapy simultaneously.Regular postoperative direct oral anticoagulants therapy and stress therapy were followed.All the patients were hospitalized for less than 24 h.Results:All the 21 patients operations were successful(the success rate was 100％),without any intraoperative compli-cations.Immediate postoperative complications were puncture point bleeding in 1 case.The bandage gauze was completely wet.The bleeding was stopped after 5min of recompression.All the patients were hospitalized for less than 24 h.Follow-up results:The 3-month follow-up rate after operation was 100％.Absolute effective 18 cases(18/21,85.7％).Relatively effective(postmentation still after surgery,but with less extent)in 3 cases(3/21,14.3％).The iliac vein stents were unobstructed,and the trunk of the great saphenous vein was well closed in the patients with great saphenous vein radiofrequency treat-ment.The 6-month follow-up rate after operation was 71.4％(15/21).Of these,14 cases(14/15,93.3％)were absolutely effective.Relatively effective(postmentation still after surgery,but with less ex-tent)in 1 case(1/15,6.7％).The iliac vein stents were no restenosis or obstruction,and the trunk of the great saphenous vein was well closed in the patients with great saphenous vein radiofrequency treat-ment.Conclusion:The interventional treatment technique of iliac vein stenosis is feasible in the daytime treatment mode,with clear advantages and satisfactory recent efficacy.

Background and purpose:Follow-up data of 6 737 patients undergoing surgery for gastric cancer were collected based on hospital registration,and the 1-,3-and 5-years observed overall survival(OS)rates and disease-free survival(DFS)rates were analyzed to provide real-world research evidence for the prevention and control of gastric cancer and policy making in China.Methods:A total of 6 737 gastric cancer patients who underwent surgical treatment at Fudan University Shanghai Cancer center from 2015 to 2020 were included in this study.Clinical information and the follow-up endpoint data were collected through medical records review,telephone visits and death registry data linkage.The last follow-up date was November 30,2023.Kaplan-Meier method was applied in evaluating the 1-,3-and 5-year OS rate and DFS rate,and survival data were described by different subgroups including age group,gender,treatment period,tumor staging,and pathological characteristics.Results:With a median follow-up time of 50.99 months,the 5-year OS rate of surgically resected gastric cancer patients was 70.37%,and 5-year DFS rate in Ⅰ-Ⅲ stage cases was 69.46%.The 5-year OS rates of stage Ⅰ,Ⅱ,Ⅲ and Ⅳ were 94.32%,82.56%,51.01%and 23.97%,respectively.The differences in survival among patients with different age,tumor location,gross classification,Borrmann classification and Laurence classification were significant.Conclusion:Staging is an important factor directly affecting the survival of gastric cancer patients.Screening and early diagnosis and treatment in large population,especially high-risk group,should be strengthened to further improve the patients'survival.
