Objective:To explore the effects of dexmedetomidine (DEX) on postoperative pain, oxidative stress and adverse reactions in patients undergoing radical mastectomy.Methods:A total of 90 patients with breast cancer who received radical surgical treatment in our hospital from Jun. 2022 to Jun. 2023 were prospectively included as research objects and randomly divided into 3 groups with 30 patients in each group. DEX group was applied before, during and after surgery, respectively. The levels of pain visual analogue scale (VAS), Richmonation sedation score (RASS), superoxide dismu-tase (SOD) and malondialdehyde (MDA) were recorded.Results:The recovery time and extubation time in preoperative and intraoperative DEX group were significantly lower than those in postoperative DEX group, and the awakening time and extubation time in preoperative DEX group were significantly lower than those in intraoperative DEX group ( F value was 48.62 and 53.98, respectively, P<0.001). At 1 h, 6 h and 12 h after surgery, the VAS and RASS scores of patients in the preoperative and intraoperative DEX group were significantly lower than those in the postoperative DEX group, compared with those in the intraoperative DEX group. The VAS and RASS scores in the DEX group were significantly decreased ( F value: 62.34, 55.24, 69.26, 36.82, 24.20, 39.97, P<0.001). At 24h after surgery, there was no significant difference in VAS and RASS scores among the three groups ( F value was 0.45 and 0.81, respectively, P value was 0.613 and 0.418). Immediately after surgery, 24 h after surgery, 72 h after surgery, the SOD level of DEX group was significantly higher than that of DEX group before and during surgery ( F value was 29.37, 33.24, 10.35, P<0.001). MDA levels were significantly lower than those in postoperative DEX group ( F value was 30.52, 41.27, 8.26, P<0.001). There was no significant difference in the incidence of postoperative adverse reactions among all groups ( P>0.05) . Conclusion:Preoperative and intraoperative application of DEX can reduce postoperative pain and oxidative stress in breast cancer patients, help patients recover quickly after surgery, and preoperative application is superior to intraoperative application.

Objective:To investigate the clinical characteristics and voice outcomes after laryngeal microsurgery for vocal fold epidermoid cysts coexisting with sulcus vocalis.Methods:The clinical data of 115 vocal fold epidermoid cysts coexisting with sulcus vocalis patients in Shandong provincial ENT hospital, were retrospectively analyzed, including 49 males and 66 females, aged 17-70 years old, and the duration of hoarseness ranged from 6 months to 30 years. All patients underwent surgery through suspension laryngoscope and microscope under general anestgesia. Ninety-four patients were treated with microflap excision of sulcus vocalis, cyst wall, and contents.And 21 patients that occulted with mucosal bridges were applied mucosal bridges resection (2 cases) and mucosal bridges reconstruction (19 cases) respectively. Videolaryngoscopy, subjective voice evaluation (GRBAS), objective voice evaluation, and Voice Handicap Index(VHI) were performed before and after surgery. All patients underwent histopathologic examination and follow-up after the procedure. The preoperative acoustic parameters of patients with vocal fold epidermoid cysts coexisting with sulcus vocalis were compared with those of vocal fold mucus retention cysts and simple vocal fold epidermoid cysts by independent samples t-test. The patients were compared by paired t-test for preoperative and postoperative parameters. Results:Significant reduction or lack of mucosal waves were shown via videolaryngostroboscopy in all 115 cases.In addition, vascular changes including dilation, tortuousness, increased branches, and abrupt direction change were shown on the cystic area. Eighty-one patients were detected cysts and/or sulcus vocalis by preoperative laryngoscopy, and intraoperative microscopic findings in the remaining 34 patients. The intraoperative microscopic examination revealed a focal pouch-like deficit plunging into the vocal ligament or muscle. The deep surface of the mucosal bridges was sulcus vocalis, and that in 89 cysts was lined with caseous content. Histopathology demonstrated a cystic cavity structure lined with squamous epithelium and caseous keratin desquamation inside the cystic cavity. Four of 115 patients were lost at follow-up and excluded from the analysis of voice outcomes after surgery. There was no significant mucosal wave and the voice quality in all but 14 patients 1month after surgery. Except for the fundamental frequency and noise harmonic ratio, all other voice parameters[ G, R, B, A, VHI-10, jitter, shimmer, maximum phonatory time (MPT) ]showed a significant improvement 3 months after surgery( t=15.82, 20.82, 17.61, 7.30, 38.88, 7.84, 5.88, -6.26, respectively, P<0.05). Then mucosal waves and the voice quality were gradually improved and became steady in 6 months after surgery. The subjective and objective voice parameters[G, R, B, A, VHI-10, jitter, shimmer, noise to harmonic ratio(NHR), MPT], except for the fundamental frequency, were all significantly improved( t=23.47, 25.79, 18.37, 9.84, 54.45, 10.68, 8.07, 3.24, -9.08, respectively, P<0.05). In addition, there were 2 patients with no significant improvement after the operation. Steady function with no complications was observed during the 12 months (up to 3 years in 34 patients) follow-up period in 111 patients. Conclusion:Ruptured vocal fold epidermoid cysts can result in sulcus vocalis and mucosal bridges. Characteristics changes in preoperative videolaryngoscopy are effective diagnostic tools. The complete excision of the cyst wall and repair of the lamina propria can lead to satisfactory long-term effects.

Purpose To investigate the clinical value of multi-center digital mammography radiomics nomogram model in predicting triple-negative breast cancer(TNBC).Materials and Methods The digital mammograms of 462 patients with pathologically confirmed breast cancer from November 2016 to March 2022 were retrospectively analyzed,including 243 cases from Yijishan Hospital of Wannan Medical College(institution 1),106 cases from Fuyang People's Hospital(institution 2)and 113 cases from Taihe People's Hospital(institution 3).According to the results of immunohistochemistry,a total of 349 breast cancer patients in institution 1 and institution 2 were randomly divided into the training group(244 cases,including 41 TNBC and 203 non-TNBC)and the validation group(105 cases,including 18 TNBC and 87 non-TNBC)according to the ratio of 7∶3,113 breast cancer patients(24 TNBC and 89 non-TNBC)from institution 3 were included in the external validation group.Comparing the mediolateral oblique and cranial cauda digital mammography images,the mammography imaging with larger lesion areas were selected,and the image segmentation and radiomics feature extraction were performed.The radiomics model was constructed by using Logistic regression.The clinicopathological parameters and radiomics scores were used to construct a nomogram.Receiver operating characteristic and decision curve analysis were used to evaluate the model performance.To compare The predictive performance between the models was compared.Results Finally,four radiomics features closely related to TNBC were selected to construct an radiomics model.The area under the curve,sensitivity and specificity of TNBC predicted by the radiomics model in training group,validation group and external test group were 0.868,90.24%and 72.91%,0.827,72.22%and 75.86%,0.837,70.83%and 78.65%,respectively.The area under the curve,sensitivity and specificity of TNBC predicted by the combined model in the training group,validation group and external test group were 0.903,80.49%and 86.70%,0.890,77.78%and 88.51%,0.870,62.50%and 85.39%,respectively.The combined model was better than the single image omics model in predicting TNBC,and the difference was statistically significant between the training group and the verification group(Z=2.061,2.064,both P<0.05),but not between the external test group(Z=1.223,P=0.221).In three group,decision curve analysis showed that the nomogram predicted a higher net benefit than the radiomics model for triple-negative breast cancer.Conclusion The radiomics model has high diagnostic efficiency in predicting TNBC,and the nomogram model combined with the radiomics score and histological grading can further improve the prediction efficiency.

Objective: To learn the genotypic drug resistance of men who have sex with men ( MSM ) with HIV who failed in antiviral therapy in Yunnan Province, in order to provide basis for improving the effect of antiviral therapy. Methods: The patients who were infected with HIV-1, homosexual transmitted and failed in antiviral therapy in Yunnan Province from 2014 to 2019 were recruited. Their plasma samples were tested by reverse transcription nested polymerase chain reaction ( RT-nPCR ) , the fragments were spliced using ContigExpress, and the resistance to 8 protease inhibitors ( PIs ) , 7 nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors ( NRTIs ) and 5 non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors ( NNRTIs ) were obtained from the HIV drug resistance data website of Stanford University. Results: A total of 205 HIV/AIDS cases were included, 169 positive plasma samples were amplified, 112 cases were drug resistant, and the rate of drug resistance was 66.27%. The patients who were aged 30-49 years ( 76.09% ) , had genotype of CRF01_AE ( 76.34% ) or treated by AZT+3TC+NVP ( 77.08% ) had higher resistance rate. The resistance rates of NNRTIs, NRTIs and PIs were 62.72%, 49.70% and 2.96%, respectively; the resistance rates of NVP and EFV in NNRTIs were 62.72% and 61.54%. The main mutation site associated with NNRTIs was K103, accounting for 21.89% ( 37 cases ) ; the main mutation site associated with NRTIs was M184, accounting for 39.64% ( 67 cases ) ; the main mutation sites associated with PIs were M46L/K, accounting for 2.96% ( 5 cases ) , resulting in high resistance to NFV. Conclusions The drug resistance rate of HIV-infected MSM with failure of antiviral therapy in Yunnan Province is relatively high, with CRF01_AE as the main gene subtype of drug resistance. The drug resistance rate of NNRTIs is relatively high, especially NVP and EFV.

The infectious disease outpatient service as a frontier is an important fulcrum of public health service. Its standardized construction is an important support for ensuring medical safety, reducing nosocomial infections, and controlling the epidemic of infectious diseases. The sub-specialty outpatient service of infection diseases includes fever outpatient service, intestinal outpatient service, tuberculosis outpatient service, AIDS outpatient service, liver disease outpatient service, etc. According to the characteristics of each subspecialty outpatient service and combining with clinical practice, we elaborated the setting norms of subspecialty outpatient service for common infectious diseases from the perspective of planning and design, building layout, equipment and facilities configuration, staffing, daily management and demonstration.

The dual luciferase reporter gene system provides sensitive readout, while it relies on a constitutively-expressed control gene for readout normalization. However, most standard control reporter genes are not constitutively expressed under all conditions. Here, we report an effective method to construct a control reporter plasmid for the dual luciferase reporter gene system that would be suitable for hormone research in silkworm cell lines. First, we modified BmVgP78M, a stably-expressed constitutive promoter in silkworm cells by mutating its hormone-related element. Then, we constructed the pRL-VgP78M control reporter plasmid by replacing the SV40 promoter and chimeric intron sequences in pRL-SV40 with the BmVgP78M sequence. Finally, we confirmed that the pRL-VgP78M control reporter plasmid could be stably expressed in silkworm cell lines via cell transfection experiments, and it was unresponsive to the induction of ecdysone, juvenile hormone, or their transcription factors. We thus obtained a control reporter plasmid pRL-VgP78M that could be expressed stably and moderately in silkworm cells. It can be readily used as the control reporter plasmid of the dual luciferase reporter gene system for hormone research in silkworm cell lines. It will also provide a reference for construction of control reporter plasmids of dual luciferase reporter gene systems that are adaptable to cell lines isolated from other species.

Objective To investigate the predictive factors for postoperative intra-abdominal septic complications (IASCs) after intestinal resection in patients with Crohn's Disease (CD).Methods Clinical data from patients who underwent intestinal resection for CD at Sir Run Run Shaw Hospital between June 2011 and July 2016 were retrospectively analysed.The patients were divided into IASCs group and non-IASCs groups by whether suffering from postoperative IASCs.Univariate analysis and multivariate logistic regression analysis were performed to identify the predictive factors for postoperative IASCs,and the receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) was used to analyse the diagnostic value of the results.Results Among one hundred and seventy-three patients who underwent intestinal resection for CD,15(8.7％) patients experienced postoperative IASCs.The results of univariate and multivariate analysis showed that preoperative CRP ≥ 10 mg/L (OR =4.920,95％ CI:1.137-21.287,P =0.033) was an independent trisk factor for postoperative IASCs,and the laparoscopic surgery (OR =0.070,95％ CI:0.007-0.701,P =0.024) was the independent protective factor for postoperative IASCs.By analyzing ROC curve,preoperative CRP level had the diagnostic value of predicting the postoperative IASCs.The areas under the ROC curves of preoperative CRP for postoperative IASCs were 0.729 with an optimal diagnostic cut-off value of 10.75 mg/L,and with sensitivity of 80.0％ and a specificity of 67.1％.Conclusions Preoperative CRP level is an independent risk factor for postoperative IASCs,and laparoscopic surgery is an independent protective factor for IASCs.

Objective To assess the relationship between type 2 diabetes and the risk of kidney cancer. Methods PubMed, Medline, CNKI and VIP were used to identify studies which regarded the relationship between type 2 diabetes and risk of kidney cancer up to July 2014. The relative risks (RRs) and the corresponding 95% confidence interals (CIs) were used to estimate the association between type 2 diabetes and the risk of kidney cancer through software STATA. Results 8 studies were included in this analysis. Compared to the popula-tion without type 2 diabetes, there was an increased risk of kidney cancer in the type 2 diabetes patients, the pooled RR (95%CI) was 1. 55 (1. 24,1. 92),P<0. 05. Conclusion Our meta-analysis suggestes that type 2 diabetes can increase the risk of kidney cancer.
