ObjectiveTo investigate the possible mechanisms of modified Xiaoyao Powder （逍遥散） in the treatment of hyperprolactinemia （HPRL） with liver constraint and spleen deficiency. MethodsNinety-six female SD rats were randomly divided into a normal group （n=16） and a modeling group （n=80）. In the modeling group， rats were subjected to chronic unpredictable stress combined with intraperitoneal injection of metoclopramide to establish a rat model of HPRL with liver constraint and spleen deficiency. The 80 successfully modeled rats were randomly divided into a model group， a high， medium， and low-dose group of modified Xiaoyao Powder， and a bromocriptine group， with 16 rats in each group. The high， medium， and low-dose groups of modified Xiaoyao Powder were orally administered doses of 60， 30， and 15 g/（kg·d） respectively， the bromocriptine group was orally administered bromocriptine tablets at a dose of 1 mg/（kg·d）， and the normal group and model group were orally administered 10 ml/（kg·d） of normal saline for 14 consecutive days. ELISA was used to detect serum prolactin （PRL） level； immunohistochemistry was used to determine the expression of tumor necrosis factor-alpha （TNF-α） and tyrosine hydroxylase （TH） in the hypothalamus； Western blot was used to detect the protein expression of tumor necrosis factor receptor 1 （TNFR1） in the hypothalamus； Real-time PCR was used to detect the mRNA expression of receptor interacting protein kinase 3 （RIP3） in the hypothalamus； immunofluorescence was used to detect the co-expression of RIP3 and dopamine neurons in the hypothalamus. ResultsCompared with the normal group， the serum PRL levels were increased in the model group， and the expression of hypothalamic TNF-α， TNFR1， RIP3 mRNA， and the co-expression of RIP3 with dopamine neurons were significantly increased， while TH expression was decreased （P＜0.05 or P＜0.01）. Compared with the model group， the expression of hypothalamic TNF-α was decreased in the bromocriptine group and low-dose group of modified Xiaoyao Powder， and the expression of TH was significantly increased in the medium and high-dose groups of modified Xiaoyao Powder and the bromocriptine group. The serum PRL levels， hypothalamic TNFR1 and RIP3 mRNA expression， and the co-expression of RIP3 with dopamine neurons were significantly decreased in all dose groups of modified Xiaoyao Powder and the bromocriptine group （P＜0.05 or P＜0.01）. Compared with the bromocriptine group， the serum PRL level were significantly increased in the high and low-dose groups of modified Xiaoyao Powder， TH expression was significantly increased in the medium-dose group of modified Xiaoyao Powder， hypothalamic RIP3 mRNA expression was decreased in the low-dose group of modified Xiaoyao Powder， and the co-expression of RIP3 with dopamine neurons was significantly increased in the high-dose group of modified Xiaoyao Powder （P＜0.01）. ConclusionModified Xiaoyao Powder can regulate the programmed cell death of hypothalamic dopamine neurons， affect DA expression， and regulate PRL levels， which may be one of its mechanisms in the treatment of HPRL with liver constraint and spleen deficiency.

Sensory conflict impacts postural control, yet its effect on cortico-muscular interaction remains underexplored. We aimed to investigate sensory conflict's influence on the cortico-muscular network and postural stability. We used a rotating platform and virtual reality to present subjects with congruent and incongruent sensory input, recorded EEG (electroencephalogram) and EMG (electromyogram) data, and constructed a directed connectivity network. The results suggest that, compared to sensory congruence, during sensory conflict: (1) connectivity among the sensorimotor, visual, and posterior parietal cortex generally decreases, (2) cortical control over the muscles is weakened, (3) feedback from muscles to the cortex is strengthened, and (4) the range of body sway increases and its complexity decreases. These results underline the intricate effects of sensory conflict on cortico-muscular networks. During the sensory conflict, the brain adaptively decreases the integration of conflicting information. Without this integrated information, cortical control over muscles may be lessened, whereas the muscle feedback may be enhanced in compensation.

Objective:To construct a classification model for endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS) images of gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) and leiomyomas (LM) based on deep learning technology, and to verify its value for differential diagnosis.Methods:From October 2014 to October 2021, 69 patients of GISTs and 73 of LM who underwent EUS and were pathologically confirmed by surgery or endoscopic resection in the Second Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University were retrospectively studied. One clear EUS image with typical lesion was selected for each case. Using the hold-out method, the images of each disease were divided into the training set and the validation set according to the ratio of the number of images in the training set to the number of images in the validation set, which was 8∶2. Finally, 113 EUS images (55 GISTs and 58 LM) were used to form the training set, and 29 EUS images (14 GISTs and 15 LM) were used to form the validation set. The training set was used to train and optimize the deep learning model, and the validation set was used to verify the classification model. The main observation indicators included the sensitivity, the specificity, the positive predictive value, the negative predictive value and the accuracy of differential diagnosis.Results:The accuracy of the classification model established by Resnet 34 network structure in the differential diagnosis of GISTs and LM tended to be 0.89, better than the classification model established by Resnet 50 network structure (0.81). The sensitivity, the specificity, the positive predictive value, the negative predictive value and the accuracy of the classification model based on Resnet 34 network structure for differentiating EUS images in the validation set were 85.71% (12/14, 95% CI: 67.38%-100.00%), 93.33% (14/15, 95% CI: 80.71%-100.00%), 92.31% (12/13, 95% CI: 77.82%-100.00%), 87.50% (14/16, 95% CI: 71.30%-100.00%) and 89.66% (26/29, 95% CI: 78.57%-100.00%), respectively. Conclusion:It is feasible to use deep learning technology in the differential diagnosis of EUS images of GISTs and LM, which can provide auxiliary diagnostic opinions for clinicians. The deep learning model based on Resnet 34 network structure shows higher accuracy in the differential diagnosis of EUS images of GISTs and LM.

Objective:To compare the clinical efficacy of laparoscopic inguinal lymph node dissection(L-ILND)and open inguinal lymph node dissection(O-lLND)in the treatment of penile cancer after radical penile cancer surgery. Methods:The clinical outcomes of 63 patients who were diagnosed with penile cancer(TNM staging:T1_3,N0-3,M0)and received L-ILND(41 cases)or O-ILND(22 cases)after radical penile cancer surgery in Department of Urology,Hubei Cancer Hospital,Tongji Medical College,Huazhong University of Science and Technology from 2008 to 2020 were retrospectively studied.The primary endpoint of this study was overall survival,and the secondary endpoints were 5-year overall survival and 5-year cancer-specific survival.The different clinical characteristics were compared between the L-ILND group and O-ILND group.Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to study the risk facotrs for postoperative wound complications.Kaplan-Meier method was used for prognosis analysis.COX regression analysis was used to investigate the factors for overall survival prediction. Results:Among the 63 penile cancer patients studied,41 patients received L-ILND and the remaining 22 received O-ILND.There were no statistically significant differences in the baseline characteristics between the two groups of patients.The median overall survival(78 months vs 72 months,P=0.844),5-year overall survival rate(74.5％vs 78.3％,P=0.144),5-year cancer-specific survival rate(77.2％vs 71.4％,P=0.228)showed no obvious difference between L-ILND and O-ILND group.The rate of postoperative wound complications in the O-ILND group was significantly higher than that in the L-ILND group(74％vs 15％,P=0.01 2).The result of multivariate COX regression analysis showed that tumor grade[hazard ratio(H-R)=2.774,P=0.021]and lymph node pathological stage(HR=1.482,P=0.024)were significantly correlated with patients'prognosis. Conclusion:The clinical efficacy of L-ILND and O-ILND is similar,but L-ILND has a higher safety profile and lower incidence of postoperative wound complications.Therefore,L-ILND is a more ideal surgical approach for inguinal lymph node dissection after radical penile cancer surgery.

Objective:To construct a training system of the professional postgraduate degree of general practice using the Delphi method.Methods:On the basis of consulting relevant policies and literature, and drawing lessons from foreign general practice training systems, the index system of training professional postgraduate medical students of general practice was preliminarily developed. After two rounds of Delphi expert consultation, using the threshold method to select evaluation indexes, the training system was finally established. Excel 2010 and SPSS 19.0 were used to make data entry and statistical analysis.Results:The active coefficients of experts in the two rounds of Delphi consultation were 75.0% (12/16) and 91.7% (11/12) respectively, both the two rounds of the degree of specialist authority were 0.87, and the final coordination coefficient of the specialists' opinion was 0.452. The index system was composed of 5 first-level indexes including training objectives, theoretical curriculum setting, clinical practice setting, teaching staff and graduation requirements and 31 second-level indexes.Conclusion:The experts have great initiative and authority on research subjects. The opinions of all experts tend to be uniform after two rounds of consultation, and the results are reliable. A relatively complete and credible training index system of professional postgraduate degree of general medicine has been built.

【Objective】 To compare the histological characteristics of porcine pancreatic elastase （PPE） induced abdominal aortic aneurysms （AAA） and angiotensin Ⅱ （AngⅡ） induced AAA in mice. 【Methods】 In the PPE group， the mouse abdominal aorta segment from the infrarenal abdominal aorta to the iliac artery was isolated and its branch arteries were ligated to avoid leakage during PPE perfusion. We perfused the isolated aorta segment with a PPE solution at a concentration of 1.5 U/mL for 5 min and then closed the abdominal cavity. The diameter of the abdominal aorta was measured before and 14 days after the surgery， and the perfusion segment of the arteries was collected at day 14 after the surgery. The histological characteristics of the aneurysm were analyzed and graded by histological and immunohistochemical methods. In the AngⅡ group， ten apolipoprotein E knockout mice were prepared， and AngⅡ [1 000 ng/(kg·min)] was infused with osmotic pumps for 28 days. The aorta was separated and the aneurysm aorta segment was analyzed. The wild type mice were used as normal health controls. 【Results】 In the PPE group， the diameter of the PPE perfused aorta segments increased and was significantly larger than the basal diameter ［（0.52±0.02） mm vs. （1.23±0.11） mm］ at day 14 after surgery. All the ten mice developed AAA after PPE application. The histological results showed typical pathological features of AAA in PPE perfused mice， such as elastic fiber breakage， smooth muscle exhaustion， and increased inflammation. Six of the ten mice developed aneurysms after AngⅡ infusion （6/10）. The aneurysms/dilatations were mostly in the suprarenal abdominal aorta， but also in the thoracic aorta and aortic arch. The histology analysis showed that the formation of arterial dissection was common after AngⅡ infusion， and the typical vascular “false lumen” was found. The breakage of elastic fibers， the exhaustion of smooth muscle damage， and the inflammatory response were not as typical as the PPE model in AngⅡ perfused animals. 【Conclusion】 The histological characteristics of PPE induced AAA are very typical and well present the inflammatory process in the development of aneurysm. The AngⅡ model is suitable for the study of aneurysms combined with aortic dissection. Both models have their own advantages and can complement each other.
