Objective:To discuss the effect of simultaneous implantation of artificial cavernous body and urethral sphincter for severe erectile dysfunction and urinary incontinence after traumatic posterior urethral stricture.Methods:A retrospective analysis was performed on 3 patients with traumatic posterior urethral stricture admitted to the Southern Theater General Hospital from January 2021 to December 2022, aged 42, 32, 28 years old, all of whom suffered pelvic fracture and posterior urethral stricture after trauma. Patient 2 were missing left lower limb and patient 3 were missing right lower limb, all of whom had dysuria. Preoperative cystourethrography indicated posterior urethral stricture with a length of 2, 2, 3 cm, respectively. No erectile response and severe erectile dysfunction were reported in penile nocturnal erectile function tests. Posterior urethral stricture was cured by end-to-end anastomosis surgery. After urethral stricture was cured, the nighttime erectile function test indicated severe erectile dysfunction and diagnosed erectile dysfunction and urinary incontinence. After 3 months of continuous administration of sildenafil and/or tadalafil, the erectile dysfunction did not improve, and the score of the international erectile function test was 1, 2, 2 points. Severe erectile dysfunction. The urine could not be controlled, the number of urine pads per day was 6, 6, 8, respectively, and pelvic floor rehabilitation training was adopted for urinary incontinence. 6 months later, urodynamic examination indicated severe stress incontinence, and the urine pad test was 30g, 32g, and 82g per hour. Patients were fully informed of the surgical risks before surgery. Simultaneous implantation of artificial penile cavernous body and artificial urethral sphincter were performed after full preoperative preparation: General anesthesia, supine frog position with transverse incision in upper scrotum, the urethra was separated and the artificial urethral sphincter cuff was easily inserted into the upper scrotum. Then the left and right sides of the penis cavernous sinus were dilated and the length of the cavernous body was measured. Suitable artificial penis cavernous body was implanted, water sacs were placed in the posterior pubic space and the anterior vesical space, and the tubes were connected. The erectile switch was placed under the scrotum, and the incision was closed after repeated testing of urine control and normal erectile function.Results:Three cases were successfully completed. The simultaneous implantation time of artificial cavernous body and artificial urethral sphincter was 270, 260, 240 min, respectively. The catheter was removed 1 week after surgery, and the erection switch was trained 2 weeks after surgery, and full erection was achieved after 1 week. The urine control switch was activated 6 weeks after surgery, and urine control was normal without urine pad. Following up for 12 to 18 months, 2 cases had normal erections and urinary control, 1 case had urethral corrosion 2 months after surgery, the original artificial sphincter was removed completely and a new artificial urethral sphincter was implanted in the same period, the operation was successful, and the follow-up was 1 year, urine control and erectile function returned to normal.Conclusions:For the severe erectile dysfunction and severe urinary incontinence after traumatic posterior urethral stricture, simultaneous implantation of artificial penile cavernous body and artificial urethral sphincter could be alternative choice.

The testis is pivotal for male reproduction, and its progressive functional decline in aging is associated with infertility. However, the regulatory mechanism underlying primate testicular aging remains largely elusive. Here, we resolve the aging-related cellular and molecular alterations of primate testicular aging by establishing a single-nucleus transcriptomic atlas. Gene-expression patterns along the spermatogenesis trajectory revealed molecular programs associated with attrition of spermatogonial stem cell reservoir, disturbed meiosis and impaired spermiogenesis along the sequential continuum. Remarkably, Sertoli cell was identified as the cell type most susceptible to aging, given its deeply perturbed age-associated transcriptional profiles. Concomitantly, downregulation of the transcription factor Wilms' Tumor 1 (WT1), essential for Sertoli cell homeostasis, was associated with accelerated cellular senescence, disrupted tight junctions, and a compromised cell identity signature, which altogether may help create a hostile microenvironment for spermatogenesis. Collectively, our study depicts in-depth transcriptomic traits of non-human primate (NHP) testicular aging at single-cell resolution, providing potential diagnostic biomarkers and targets for therapeutic interventions against testicular aging and age-related male reproductive diseases.

【Objective】 To explore the clinical effect of PRP on refractory ulcer of diabetes foot on the basis of routine treatment. 【Methods】 Sixty-four patients who suffered from diabetes foot and treated in our hospital from January to December 2020 were divided into the routine treatment group (44 cases) vs PRP plus routine treatment group (20 cases, using liquid or gel PRP for diversified treatment) according to a simple random sampling method. The general conditions of the two groups were evaluated to compare the wound surface, wound healing rate, treatment time, wound healing speed rate, adverse reactions and healing conditions after the treatment. 【Results】 The wound surface[0.05(0.00, 0.70)vs 0.35(0.00, 4.54)], wound healing rate[0.99(0.84, 1.00)vs 0.80(0.26, 1.00)] and wound healing speed rate[0.16(0.04, 0.27)vs 0.06(0.01, 0.18)] in PRP group were significantly higher than those in routine treatment group (P<0.05). The treatment duration[18.00(8.75, 24.75)vs 17.00(9.25, 28.00)] between the two groups was not statistically significant (P>0.05), so was the adverse reactions to treatments[0(0/20)vs 2.27(1/44)](P>0.05). The response rate[100(20/20)vs 61.36(27/44)] of PRP group was significantly better than that of routine group, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). 【Conclusion】 The therapeutic effect of PRP group was significantly superior to that of routine treatment group.

Objective:To investigate the effects of methyltransferase-like protein 14 (METTL14)-mediated long-chain non-coding RNA EIF3J antisense RNA1 (Inc EIF3J-AS1) on the migration and invasion of cholangiocarcinoma cells and its mechanism.Methods:From September 2017 to December 2018, 10 pairs of cholangiocarcinoma and adjacent normal tissues were collected from the First Affiliated Hospital of Naval Medical University, which were surgically resected and pathologically confirmed. The expression of METTL14 mRNA and Inc EIF3J-AS1 in cholangiocarcinoma tissues was detected by fluorescence quantitative PCR, and the protein expression of METTL14 was detected by Western blotting. Cholangiocarcinoma cell lines HUCCTI and RBE were divided into control group and METTL14 or Inc EIF3J-AS1 knockdown group. The corresponding normal lentivirus was transfected in the control group, and METTL14 or Inc EIF3J-AS1 knockdown group was transfected with lentivirus that interfered with the expression of METTL14 or Inc EIF3J-AS1, respectively. Transwell assay was used to detect the ability of cell migration and invasion, and Western blotting was used to detect the expression of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) and AKT protein.Results:The expressions of METTL14 mRNA and lnc EIF3J-AS1 in cholangiocarcinoma tissues were significantly higher than those in adjacent normal tissues (0.075±0.012 vs 0.031±0.006, 0.140±0.032 vs 0.064±0.012), and there was a positive correlation between expression of METTL4 mRNA and expression of lnc EIF3J-AS1 ( r=0.883, P=0.0007). The expression of METTL14 protein in cholangiocarcinoma tissues was higher than that in adjacent normal tissues (0.354±0.131 vs 0.187±0.183). Compared with the control group, the expression of lnc EIF3J-AS1 was significantly lower in METTL14 or Inc EIF3J-AS1 knockdown group (0.217±0.020 vs 1.000±0.052, 0.149±0.066 vs 1.000±0.045). The migration and invasion ability of cell lines HUCCTI and RBE decreased significantly in lnc EIF3J-AS1 knockout group (5.00±0.58 vs 23.33±0.33, 20.33±0.67 vs 70.67±0.33; 12.00±0.58 vs 25.00±2.52, 22.33±0.89 vs 43.67±0.33). The expression of EGFR and p-AKT/AKT protein were also significantly decreased (0.109±0.015 vs 1.000±0.018, 0.226±0.036 vs 1.000±0.051; 0.118±0.052 vs 1.000±0.069, 0.132±0.098 vs 1.000±0.023). The above differences were statistically significant (all P<0.05). Conclusions:Abnormal expression of lnc EIF3J-AS1 in cholangiocarcinoma mediated by METTL14 can promote tumor cell migration and invasion.

Objective To establish the Polock indexes (PI) of singleton neonates in different gestational age (GA),so as to provide a reference data for evaluating physical fullness and symmetry in neonates at birth.Methods A total of 16 887 live singleton neonates at 27-42 weeks of GA from two hospitals were measured at birth by site survey method using cluster samples by a cross sectional time in Shenzhen City,from 2013 to 2015 in this study,to establish PI of singleton neonates in different GA.Results The PI mean and the percentile curves(3rd,10th,25th,50th,75th,90th,97th)of singleton neonates at 27-42 weeks of GA (male,female,and unisex three groups) were established in 2015 in Shenzhen,China.The fullness and nutrition status of neonates at birth can be evaluated by these PI curves.According to the 3rd,10th,25th-75th,90th,97th curves,the down,mid down,middle,mid upper,upper levels were divided in turn.When the PI values ＞97th curve it was overweighted or fatty.When the PI values ＜ 3rd curve it was malnutrition.The lowest values of PI were at 27 weeks of GA,and the highest values appeared at 42 weeks of GA.The PI values were increasing with GA growth,which indicated that the GA increased the body density and fullness.The 50th percentile curve of male PI was higher than that of the female,and the male ratio increased by 61.2-89.5 at the gestational age of 27-34 weeks;between 35 and 42 weeks of fetal age,males increased by 104.8-149.1,which had a statistical difference (P ＜ 0.001).Conclusions The PI of singleton neonates rises with GA increase,which shows the GA increases the body density and fullness.PI is higher in male than in female singleton neonates.

Objective To obtain the length-chest circumference index of normal term newborns in different gestational age. Methods By cross-sectional time cluster sampling fact-ifnding investigation method, the anthropometric data on 16388 newborns from 2013 to 2015 were measured, including birth weight, length, crown-rump length, head circumference, and chest circumference, to develop normal full-term infants height chest circumference index (BCI) in different gestational age.

Objective To observe clinical efficacy of NB-UVB in treating psoriasis vulgaris and its effects on expression of serum interleukin-17 (IL-17),interleukin-23 (IL-23) and interleukin-22 (IL-22) in patients with psoriasis vulgaris,and to study the underlying mechanisms of NB-UVB.Methods Ninety patients were recruited and treated with NB-UVB therapy for 8 weeks.Before and after treatment,the serum level of IL-17,IL-23,IL-22,interleukin-l0(IL-10) and transforming growth factor(TGF-β) were tested by use of ELISA method,meanwhile Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (PASI) were used to evaluate clinical efficacy.Fifty healthy volunteers were selected as control group.Results Compared to healthy controls,the level of serum IL-17,IL-23 and IL-22 was significantly higher in patients with psoriasis vulgris (P ＜ 0.01),and IL-10,TGF-β shown lower expression in psoriasis patients (P ＜ 0.01).After 8 weeks of treatment with NB-UVB,serum levels of IL-17,IL-23 and IL-22 in psoriasis patients decreased significantly (P ＜ 0.01),while IL-10,TGF-βelevated significantly (P ＜ 0.01) in contrast.The Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (PASI) results indicated significantly clinical improvement after therapy,and the total effective rate was 87.78％.Conclusion NB-UVB could down-regulate serum IL-17,IL-23,IL-22 and up-regulate IL-10,TGF-β,which may help regulate imbalance of T lymphocytes cells of psoriasis patients.The clinical data demonstrate that the treatment of NB-UVB is a safe,effective method for psoriasis vulgaris.

OBJECTIVE To study the feature of liver disease and liver failure complicated with fungous infection. METHODS The patients with liver disease complicated with fungous infection were collected form 1986 to 2005. The time was divided into four stages:from 1986 to 1990,from 1991 to 1995,from 1996 to 2000 and from 2001 to 2005. All patients with liver failure complicated with fungous infection in different stages were investigated for the incidence,the use of antibiotics and corticosteroids,the category and site of fungous infection and prognosis. RESULTS End-stage liver disease accounted for 82.6% and HBV infection was the main etiology in 475 cases of fungous infection. Fungous infection occurred mainly in hospital. Hospital acquired infection and community acquired infection were similar in different stages. The use of antibiotics and corticosteroids accounted for 88.8% and 48% in all patients before fungous infection,respectively. The use of antibiotics had no difference and the use of corticosteroids decreased in different stages. Candida were the main infection strains and the lungs and pharynx oralis were the main infection sites. The rate of healing and improvement of fungous infection and underlying diseases increased year by year. Healing and improvement rate of underlaying disease positively correlated with that of fungous infection. CONCLUSIONS End-stage liver disease patients are susceptible to fungous infection and Candida are the common infection strains. Lungs and pharynx oralis are the common infection sites. Anti-fungous therapy is important in the treatment of liver failure complicated with fungous infection.

The effectS of survivin antisense RNA on proliferation of leukemia cell line HL-60 and taxol.induced chemotherapy was explorcd.A cDNA fragment of survivin obtained by RT-PCR was inserted into a plamid vector named pcDNA3 in the reverse direction.The vector encoding antisense RNA of survivin was confirmed by restriction enzyme digestion and DNA sequencing.The recombi-nant plasmid was delivered into HL-60 cells by electroporation.Growth curves were plotted based on cell counting.Trypan blue dye exclusion assay and MTT assay were carried out after the cells were incubated with taxol.DNA gel electrophoresis and nuclear staining were performed for cell apoptosis assay.The correct construction of the recombinant plasmid has been identificd bv restriction enzy.me digestion and DNA sequencing.A stable down.regulation has been achieved in HL-60 SVVas cells after G418 selection.Compared tO HL-60 cells.the proliferation of HL-60 SVVaS cells was signifi.cantly inhibited(P＜0.05).Cytotoxicity assays indicated that IC50 of HL-60 SVVas for taxol was rela-tively lower than controls(P＜0.01).Apoptosis assays revealed that taxol-induced apoptosis was de-tected in HL-60 sVVas cells incubated with 50 ng/ml taxol for 12 h,while in HL-60 cells incubated with 100 ng/ml taxol for 72 h.It was suggested that Survivin antisense RNA could inhibit the prolif-eration of HL-60 cells and enhance taxol-induced apoptosis in HL-60 cells.which may lay an ex-perimental foundation for further research on gene therapy in leukemia.
