Aim To explore the effect of kaempferol-7- 0-neohesperidoside (K70N) against prostate cancer (PCa) and the underlying mechanism. Methods The effect of K70N on the proliferation of PCa cell lines PC3, DU145, C4-2 and LNCaP was detected using CCK8 assay. The effect of K70N on migration ability of DU145 cells was determined by wound healing assay. The targets of K70N and PCa were screened from SuperPred and other databases. The common targets both related to K70N and PCa were obtained from the Venny online platform, a protein-protein interaction network (PPI) was constructed by the String and Cyto- scape. Meanwhile, the GO and KEGG functional enrichment were analyzed by David database. Then, a "drug-target-disease-pathway" network model was constructed. Cell cycle of PCa cells treated with K70N was analyzed by flow cytometry. The expressions of cycle-associated proteins including Skp2, p27 and p21 protein were detected by Western blot. Molecular docking between Skp2 and K70N was conducted by Sybyl X2. 0. Results K70N significantly inhibited the proliferation and migration of PCa cells. A total number of 34 drug-disease intersection targets were screened. The String results showed that Skp2 and p27, among the common targets, were the key targets of K70N for PCa treatment. Furthermore, GO and KEGG functional en-richment indicated that the mechanism was mainly related to the cell cycle. Flow cytometry showed that K70N treatment induced cell cycle arrest at the S phase. Compared with the control group, the protein expression level of Skp2 was significantly down-regulated, while the protein expression levels of p27 and p21 were up-regulated. The network molecular docking indicated that the ligand K70N had a good binding ability with the receptor Skp2. Conclusions K70N could inhibit the proliferation and migration of PCa cells, block the cell cycle in the S phase, which may be related to the regulation of cell cycle through the Skp2- p27/p21 signaling pathway.

Three 2,3-diketoquinoxaline alkaloids were isolated from Heterosmilax yunnanensis Gagnep. Their structures were determined through 1D and 2D NMR, HR-ESI-MS, UV, and IR as 1-[5′-(3″-hydroxy-3″-methyl) glutaryl] ribityl-2,3-diketo-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-6,7-dimethylquinoxaline (1), 1-[2′-(3″-hydroxy-3″-methyl) glutaryl]ribityl-2,3-diketo-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-6,7-dimethylquinoxaline (2), and 1-ribityl-2,3-diketo-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-6,7-dimethylquinoxaline (3). Compounds 1 and 2 are novel compounds, and 3 was isolated from H. yunnanensis for the first time. The hepatoprotective activity of these three compounds was evaluated, with compound 3 showing promising hepatoprotective activity.

Inflammatory pseudotumor-like follicular dendritic cell sarcoma(IPT-like FDCS)is a very rare malignant tumor that is considered to be associated with Epstein-Barr virus.Two patients in this report were generally healthy,and the spleen tumor was found during physical examination.After completing the examination,laparoscopic total splenectomy was performed,and the pathological result showed IPT-like FDCS.Postoperative chemoradiotherapy was not performed in either case.The disease has no characteristic clinical manifestations,and imaging overlaps with sarcoma.Microscopic manifestation showed CD21,CD23 and EBER positive spindle tumor cells in the inflammatory background with matted arrangement.Due to the interwoven distribution of tumor cells and lymphocytes,diagnosis is difficult.In this article,we report this two cases with literature review and summarize their clinical and pathological features to improve diagnostic cognition.

Objective To observe the efficacy and safety of Morinda officinalis oligosaccharides in the continuation treatment of mild and moderate depression.Methods An open,single-arm,multi-center design was adopted in our study.Adult patients with mild and moderate depression who had received acute treatment of Morinda officinalis oligosaccharides were enrolled and continue to receive Morinda officinalis oligosaccharides capsules for 24 weeks,the dose remained unchanged during continuation treatment.The remission rate,recurrence rate,recurrence time,and the change from baseline to endpoint of Hamilton Depression Scale(HAMD),Hamilton Anxiety Scale(HAMA),Clinical Global Impression-Severity(CGI-S)and Arizona Sexual Experience Scale(ASEX)were evaluated.The incidence of treatment-related adverse events was reported.Results The scores of HAMD-17 at baseline and after treatment were 6.60±1.87 and 5.85±4.18,scores of HAMA were 6.36±3.02 and 4.93±3.09,scores of CGI-S were 1.49±0.56 and 1.29±0.81,scores of ASEX were 15.92±4.72 and 15.57±5.26,with significant difference(P＜0.05).After continuation treatment,the remission rate was 54.59％(202 cases/370 cases),and the recurrence rate was 6.49％(24 cases/370 cases),the recurrence time was(64.67±42.47)days.The incidence of treatment-related adverse events was 15.35％(64 cases/417 cases).Conclusion Morinda officinalis oligosaccharides capsules can be effectively used for the continuation treatment of mild and moderate depression,and are well tolerated and safe.

Temporomandibular joint (TMJ) diseases are common clinical conditions. The number of patients with TMJ diseases is large, and the etiology, epidemiology, disease spectrum, and treatment of the disease remain controversial and unknown. To understand and master the current situation of the occurrence, development and prevention of TMJ diseases, as well as to identify the patterns in etiology, incidence, drug sensitivity, and prognosis is crucial for alleviating patients′suffering.This will facilitate in-depth medical research, effective disease prevention measures, and the formulation of corresponding health policies. Cohort construction and research has an irreplaceable role in precise disease prevention and significant improvement in diagnosis and treatment levels. Large-scale cohort studies are needed to explore the relationship between potential risk factors and outcomes of TMJ diseases, and to observe disease prognoses through long-term follw-ups. The consensus aims to establish a standard conceptual frame work for a cohort study on patients with TMJ disease while providing ideas for cohort data standards to this condition. TMJ disease cohort data consists of both common data standards applicable to all specific disease cohorts as well as disease-specific data standards. Common data were available for each specific disease cohort. By integrating different cohort research resources, standard problems or study variables can be unified. Long-term follow-up can be performed using consistent definitions and criteria across different projects for better core data collection. It is hoped that this consensus will be facilitate the development cohort studies of TMJ diseases.

Objective To investigate the efficacy and safety of camrelizumab monoclonal antibody combined with molecular-targeted therapy in elderly patients with unresectable or advanced hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC).Methods A retrospective analysis was performed for the patients with unresectable/advanced HCC who attended six hospitals from January 1,2019 to March 31,2021,and all patients received camrelizumab monoclonal antibody treatment,among whom 84.8%also received targeted therapy.According to the age of the patients,they were divided into elderly group(≥65 years)and non-elderly group(＜65 years).The two groups were assessed in terms of overall survival(OS),progression-free survival(PFS),objective response rate(ORR),disease control rate(DCR),and immune-related adverse events(irAE).The chi-square test or the Fisher's exact test was used for comparison of categorical data between groups;the independent samples t-test was used for comparison of normally distributed continuous data,and the Mann-Whitney U test was used for comparison of non-normally distributed continuous data between two groups.The Kaplan-Meier method was used for survival analysis,and the log-rank test was used for comparison of survival curves.Univariate and multivariate Cox proportional hazards regression analyses were used to determine the independent influencing factors for PFS and DCR at 6 months.Results A total of 99 HCC patients were enrolled,with 27 in the elderly group and 72 in the non-elderly group.The elderly group had an OS rate of 67.8%,an ORR of 44.4%,and a DCR of 74.1%at 12 months and a median PFS of 6.4(95%confidence interval[CI]:3.0-12.4)months,with no significant differences compared with the non-elderly group(all P＞0.05).The median OS was unavailable for the elderly group,while the non-elderly group had an OS of 18.9(95%CI:13.0-24.8)months;there was no significant difference between the two groups(P=0.485).The univariate and multivariate Cox regression analyses showed that major vascular invasion(MVI)was an independent risk factor for PFS(hazard ratio[HR]=2.603,95%CI:1.136-5.964,P=0.024)and DCR(HR=3.963,95%CI:1.671-9.397,P=0.002)at 6 months,while age,sex,etiology of HBV infection,presence of extrahepatic metastasis,Child-Pugh class B,and alpha-fetoprotein＞400 ng/mL were not associated with PFS or DCR at 6 months.For the elderly group,the incidence rates of any irAE and grade 3/4 irAE were 51.9%and 25.9%,respectively,with no significant differences compared with the non-elderly group(P＞0.05),and skin disease was the most common irAE in both groups(39.4%).Conclusion Camrelizumab monoclonal antibody combined with molecular-targeted therapy has similar efficacy and safety in patients with unresectable/advanced HCC aged≥65 years and those aged＜65 years.MVI is associated with suboptimal response to immunotherapy and poor prognosis.

Objective To explore the diagnosis and treatment method of peripelvic cysts.Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on 65 patients with peripelvic cysts admitted to the Department of Urology at Shanghai Xuhui Central Hospital from January 2019 to January 2023.The diagnostic value of ultrasound,intravenous urography(IVU),and computed tomography urography(CTU)for peripelvic cysts was compared,and the efficacy of different surgical treatments for peripelvic cysts was further evaluated.Results All 65 patients underwent ultrasound examination,which indicated cystic lesions at the renal hilum.55 patients underwent IVU examination,but no cyst enhancement was found.Among them,7 patients underwent retrograde pyelography due to poor imaging of the affected renal pelvis.All 53 patients who underwent CTU examination,which clearly showed the renal pelvis and cysts.Among the 65 patients,5 did not undergo surgical treatment and were followed up,while 60 underwent surgery.Four patients were considered for radical nephrectomy due to suspected malignancy.56 cases underwent renal cysts decompression surgery,including 11 open surgeries,37 laparoscopic surgeries,and 8 Da Vinci robot-assisted laparoscopic surgeries.The operative time in the open surgery group was significantly shorter than that in the laparoscopic surgery group and robot-assisted laparoscopic surgery group.Compared with the open surgery group and laparoscopic surgery group,the robot-assisted laparoscopic surgery group had less intraoperative blood loss,lower postoperative analgesic use,shorter time to first ambulation after surgery,and shorter hospital stay.Conclusions Ultrasound,IVU,and CTU are commonly used effective diagnostic tools for peripelvic cysts.Ultrasound can be used as a routine examination,while CTU is more accurate and has a higher diagnostic accuracy than IVU for this condition.Compared with open surgery,laparoscopic and robot-assisted laparoscopic cyst decompression surgery for peripelvic cysts result in less intraoperative blood loss and faster postoperative recovery.

Objective To compare the clinical outcomes of all-arthroscopic suture bridge fixation and posteromedial approach open reduction and internal fixation with screws for avulsion fractures of the posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) attachment in the knee joint. Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of 45 patients with avulsion fractures of the PCL attachment in the knee who were admitted to the Orthopedics and Traumatology Joint Ward of Zhangjiagang Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital of Jiangsu Province between April 2021 and July 2023. The patients were divided into arthroscopic group (undergoing all-arthroscopic suture bridge fixation) and open internal fixation group (undergoing posteromedial approach open reduction and internal fixation with screws) based on varied surgical approach they received. The operative time and length of hospital stay for both groups were recorded, and the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) scores before surgery, at 1 month and 6 months after surgery were assessed. The International Knee Documentation Committee (IKDC) subjective score, Lysholm knee function score, and Hospital for Special Surgery (HSS) knee function score were used to evaluate knee function before surgery and at 6 months after surgery. At 6 months after surgery, the range of motion of the affected knee joint was recorded, and the posterior drawer test was performed to assess the degree of PCL injury. Results None of 45 patients experienced vascular or nerve injury intraoperatively, and there were no postoperative wound infections. X-ray examinations conducted 3 days after surgery showed good reduction of the fractures. All patients were followed up for 6 months. There were statistically significant differences in operative time, length of hospital stay and VAS scores at 1 month after surgery between the two groups (P < 0.05). However, there were no statistically significant differences in preoperative IKDC scores, Lysholm function scores, HSS knee function scores, range of motion at 6 months after surgery, and HSS scores between the two groups (P>0.05). There were statistically significant differences in IKDC scores and Lysholm function scores between the two groups at 6 months after surgery (P < 0.05). At 6 months after surgery, there were 16 cases with grade I injury and 6 cases of grade II injury in the arthroscopic group, and 15 cases of grade I injury and 8 cases of grade II injury in the open internal fixation group. There was no statistically significant difference in the degree of PCL injury between the two groups (Z=-0.538, P=0.591). Conclusion Both all-arthroscopic suture bridge fixation and posteromedial approach open reduction and internal fixation with screws can achieve satisfactory clinical outcomes in the treatment of avulsion fractures of the PCL attachment. However, arthroscopic surgery has shorter incision and hospital stays, and can relieve early postoperative knee pain, with more pronounced advantages in knee function recovery.
