OBJECTIVE To compare the efficacy and safety of roxadustat versus recombinant human erythropoietin （rHuEPO）， each combined with intravenous iron supplementation， in the treatment of renal anemia （RA） in patients undergoing maintenance hemodialysis （MHD）. METHODS A retrospective analysis was conducted on the medical records of 152 patients diagnosed with RA and receiving MHD at the Affiliated Hospital of Southwest Medical University between January 2022 and June 2024. According to the treatment regimen， patients were divided into observation group （n＝72） and control group （n＝80）. Both groups of patients received MHD and intravenous iron therapy， with the observation group additionally receiving roxadustat and the control group receiving rHuEPO， both for a treatment duration of 12 weeks. Changes in anemia indicators， iron metabolism parameters， inflammatory markers， cardiac function parameters， quality of life scores before and after therapy， and adverse events during treatment were compared between the two groups. RESULTS After 12 weeks of treatment， both groups showed significant increase in hemoglobin， red blood cell count， hematocrit， serum iron， transferrin， total iron binding capacity， transferrin saturation， left ventricular ejection fraction， E/A ratio， cardiac output， 36-Item Short Form Health Survey score， and Kidney Disease Quality of Life Short Form score compared to baseline （P＜0.05）. Conversely， the levels of ferritin， C-reactive protein， interleukin-6， tumor necrosis factor-α， brain natriuretic peptide， and N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide were significantly reduced （P＜0.05）. The improvements in the observation group were significantly greater than those in the control group （P＜ 0.05）. Moreover， the incidence of adverse events was significantly lower in the observation group compared to the control group （P＜0.05）. CONCLUSIONS Compared to rHuEPO combined with intravenous iron supplementation， roxadustat combined with intravenous iron supplementation is more effective in improving anemia， iron metabolism， inflammatory status， cardiac function， and quality of life in patients with RA undergoing MHD. Additionally， it demonstrates a better safety profile.

Objective To investigate the clinical application of perioperative human serum albumin(HSA)in cardiac surgery in multiple regions in China,and to evaluate the rationality of its clinical application in conjunction with the clinical guidelines,in order to provide a reference for promoting the rational application of HSA.Methods The medical records of patients who underwent cardiac surgery from April to June 2019 in eight hospitals across the country were retrospectively collected.The statistical information on patients'general information,the dosage,course of treatment,and cost of HSA,and the serum albumin level before and after medication was analyzed to evaluate the use of HSA.Relevant evaluation criteria were established,and the rationality of its medication was evaluated.Results Data from a total of 449 patients were included for analysis,the appropriate rate of medication was 81.1％.The course of medication was mostly＞2-5 days and the total amount of HSA was mostly 50-99 g.The main purpose of medicaiton were improving colloid osmotic pressure,reducing exudation to improve interstitial edema,postoperative volume expansion.Conclusion Clinical attention should be paid to ensure the rational application of HSA in cardiac surgery during the perioperative period and prevent the abuse of blood products.

Objective:To investigate the role of survivin in the regulation of leptin expression and its sensitivity.Methods:Survivin was overexpressed in adipocytes via lentivirus, and the RNA-sequencing(RNA-seq) was used to explore the effect of survivin on the regulation of adipocyte secretory proteins. Survivin was overexpressed in the inguinal adipose tissue(iWAT) of mice by targeted injection of adeno-associated virus(AAV). The transcription levels of leptin and adiponectin were detected by realtime quantitative PCR(RT-qPCR), and the secretion levels of leptin and adiponectin in cellular supernatants and mice serum were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA). The protein level of phosphorylated signal transducer and activator of transcription 3(STAT3) in hypothalamus was detected by Western blotting to investigate the effect of survivin on central leptin sensitivity.Results:Survivin overexpression in both 3T3-L1 and primary white adipocyte significantly down-regulated the leptin transcriptional expression without affecting the adipocyte differentiation( P<0.01). Overexpression of survivin significantly decreased leptin level without affecting the adiponectin levels in the cellular supernatant( P<0.001). Overexpression of survivin in iWAT via AAV injection, not only specifically down-regulated leptin transcriptional level in a dose dependent manner in local adipose tissue, but also led to a decrease in serum leptin level( P<0.05). In mice fed short-term high-fat diet, STAT3 phosphorylation level in hypothalamus significantly increased, suggesting improved central leptin sensitivity. Conclusion:Survivin could downregulate leptin expression and improve leptin sensitivity in high-fat diet induced obese mice.

Gynecologic malignant tumors are among the leading diseases threatening women's lives and health,with the highest morbidity and mortality rates among all female diseases.These tumors originate from female reproductive organs and are typically classified based on the affected site.Ovarian cancer(OC),endometrial cancer(EC)and cervical cancer(CCA)are the most common types.Currently,gynecologic malignant tumors are primarily treated with a combination of surgery,chemotherapy and radiotherapy,where drugs play a critical role in the treatment process.However,the actual clinical effectiveness is often influenced by various factors,such as adverse reactions due to drug toxicity and the drug resistance and insensitivity observed in some patients,which limit improvements in patient survival rates.Recent studies have shown that the same type of tumor exhibits significant biological characteristics and drug response heterogeneity among different individuals,which is a key factor contributing to the varied clinical outcomes when using the same drug treatment for the same type of gynecologic malignant tumor.To achieve individualized and precise treatment for gynecologic malignant tumors,there is an urgent need to develop in vitro models that closely resemble human tumors for clinical research.Drug screening is a technique used to identify and evaluate compounds with pharmacological activity and potential therapeutic effects,providing doctors with scientific guidance on drug use,thereby avoiding blind drug testing and reducing patients'therapeutic pain and economic burden by assessing the effects of different drugs under specific conditions.Organoid models have been extensively studied as an innovative drug screening tool and personalized medicine for treating gynecologic malignancies.Organoids are tissue-like structures with a specific spatial arrangement formed in vitro through three-dimensional cell culture,capable of highly simulating the structure and function of tissues in vivo and displaying histological and genotypic characteristics very similar to human organs.This approach has largely overcome the limitations of traditional tumor models,such as patient-derived cancer cell models and patient-derived tumor xenograft models,becoming an essential research tool in oncology.It provides a more physiologically relevant experimental platform for drug screening studies of gynecologic malignancies.This paper compared the advantages and disadvantages of several preclinical cancer models,reviewed the development process of organoids,and described the establishment of gynecologic oncology organoids and their application in drug screening for ovarian,endometrial,and cervical cancers.Additionally,we discussed the current limitations of organoid technology in its application and envisioned its future development,aiming to provide insights for future medical research,particularly in new drug discovery and personalized medicine.

Objective: To investigate the effects of lactoprotein iron chelates on rats with iron deficiency anaemia (IDA), so as to provide insights into developing and utilizing novel iron supplements. Methods: Seventy weaning female SPF-graded rats of the SD strain were randomly divided into the control group (A), model group (B), ferrous sulfate group (C), lactoferrin group (D), lactoferrin iron chelate group (E), Casein oligopeptide iron chelate group (F) and whey protein oligopeptide iron chelate group (G), with 10 rats in each group. The rats in group A were fed with normal diet, and the others were fed with poor iron diet for IDA modeling. The corresponding interventions were given by intragastric administration once a day. The iron ion concentrations of group C, E, F and G were 2.0 mg/kg, and the protein and oligopeptide concentrations of group D, E, F and G were 2 000 mg/kg. Body weight and hemoglobin of rats were measured weekly during 21-day intervention. At the end, peripheral blood samples were collected, and blood routine, iron metabolism and liver function indicators were determined. Results: After the intervention, among blood routine indicators, the rats in group C, E, F and G showed elevated hemoglobin, red blood cell, mean corpuscular volume and hematocrit, and decreased free protoporphyrin and mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration when compared with the rats in group B (all P<0.05); among iron metabolism indicators, the rats in group C, E and G showed elevated serum ferritin, the rats in group C, E, F and G showed elevated serum iron, the rats in group C, D, E, F and G showed decreased unsaturated iron binding capacity and total iron binding capacity when compared with the rats in group B (all P<0.05); among liver function indicators, the rats in group E and G showed decreased alanine transaminase when compared with the rats in group B (both P<0.05). Conclusions Lactoprotein alone could not completely improve IDA in rats compared with traditional iron supplement (ferrous sulfate). Lactoprotein iron chelate, especially whey protein oligopeptide iron chelate, could significantly improve IDA, iron reserve and liver function damage in rats.

Inclusion criteria were as follows: (1) gastric adenocarcinoma confirmed by preoperative gastroscopy;(2) preoperative imaging assessment indicated that R0 resection was feasible; (3) preoperative assessment showed no contraindications to surgery;(4) esophagojejunostomy planned during the procedure; (5) patients volunteered to participate in this study and gave their written informed consent; (6) ECOG score 0–1; and (7) ASA score I–III. Exclusion criteria were as follows: (1) history of upper abdominal surgery (except laparoscopic cholecystectomy);(2) history of gastric surgery (except endoscopic submucosal dissection and endoscopic mucosal resection); (3) pregnancy or lactation;(4) emergency surgery for gastric cancer-related complications (perforation, hemorrhage, obstruction); (5) other malignant tumors within 5 years or coexisting malignant tumors;(6) arterial embolism within 6 months, such as angina pectoris, myocardial infarction, and cerebrovascular accident; and (7) comorbidities or mental health abnormalities that could affect patients' participation in the study. Patients were eliminated from the study if: (1) radical gastrectomy could not be completed; (2) end-to-side esophagojejunal anastomosis was not performed during the procedure; or (3) esophagojejunal anastomosis reinforcement was not possible. Double and a half layered esophagojejunal anastomosis was performed as follows: (1) Open surgery: the full thickness of the anastomosis is continuously sutured, followed by embedding the seromuscular layer with barbed or 3-0 absorbable sutures. The anastomosis is sutured with an average of six to eight stitches. (2) Laparoscopic surgery: the anastomosis is strengthened by counterclockwise full-layer sutures. Once the anastomosis has been sutured to the right posterior aspect of the anastomosis, the jejunum stump is pulled to the right and the anastomosis turned over to continue to complete reinforcement of the posterior wall. The suture interval is approximately 5 mm. After completing the full-thickness suture, the anastomosis is embedded in the seromuscular layer. Relevant data of patients who had undergone radical gastrectomy in the above 12 centers from June 2021 were collected and analyzed. The primary outcome was safety (e.g., postoperative complications, and treatment). Other studied variables included details of surgery (e.g., surgery time, intraoperative bleeding), postoperative recovery (postoperative time to passing flatus and oral intake, length of hospital stay), and follow-up conditions (quality of life as assessed by Visick scores).Result:[1] From June 2021 to September 2022,457 patients were enrolled, including 355 men and 102 women of median age 60.8±10.1 years and BMI 23.7±3.2 kg/m2. The tumors were located in the upper stomach in 294 patients, mid stomach in 139; and lower stomach in 24. The surgical procedures comprised 48 proximal gastrectomies and 409 total gastrectomies. Neoadjuvant chemotherapy was administered to 85 patients. Other organs were resected in 85 patients. The maximum tumor diameter was 4.3±2.2 cm, number of excised lymph nodes 28.3±15.2, and number of positive lymph nodes five (range one to four. As to pathological stage,83 patients had Stage I disease, 128 Stage II, 237 Stage III, and nine Stage IV.

The whole procedure was performed laparoscopically in 53 patients (11.6%), 189 (41.4%) underwent laparoscopic-assisted surgery, and 215 (47.0%) underwent open surgery. The median intraoperative blood loss was 200 (range, 10–1 350) mL, and the operating time 215.6±66.7 minutes. The anastomotic reinforcement time was 2 (7.3±3.9) minutes for laparoscopic-assisted surgery, 17.6±1.7 minutes for total laparoscopy, and 6.0±1.2 minutes for open surgery. [3] The studied postoperative variables were as follows: The median time to postoperative passage of flatus was 3.1±1.1 days and the postoperative gastrointestinal angiography time 6 (range, 4–13) days. The median time to postoperative oral intake was 7 (range, 2–14) days, and the postoperative hospitalization time 15.8±6.7 days. [4] The safety-related variables were as follows: In total, there were 184 (40.3%) postoperative complications. These comprised esophagojejunal anastomosis complications in 10 patients (2.2%), four (0.9%) being anastomotic leakage (including two cases of subclinical leakage and two of clinical leakage; all resolved with conservative treatment); and six patients (1.3%) with anastomotic stenosis (two who underwent endoscopic balloon dilation 21 and 46 days after surgery, the others improved after a change in diet). There was no anastomotic bleeding. Non-anastomotic complications occurred in 174 patients (38.1%). All patients attended for follow-up at least once, the median follow-up time being 10 (3–18) months. Visick grades were as follows: Class I, 89.1% (407/457); Class II, 7.9% (36/457); Class III, 2.6% (12/457); and Class IV 0.4% (2/457).Conclusion:Double and a half layered esophagojejunal anastomosis in radical gastrectomy is safe and feasible.

Objective To assess the comparative efficacy of different methods for difficult biliary cannulation in endoscopic retrograde cholangio-pancreatography(ERCP)through a network meta-analysis.Methods Randomized controlled trials(RCTs)that compared the efficacy of different adjunctive methods(early or late needle-knife technique,pancreatic guidewire-assisted technique,pancreatic stent-assisted technique,transpancreatic sphincterotomy,persistent standard cannulation technique)for difficult biliary cannulation with each other were identified.The success rate of biliary cannulation and the incidence of post-ERCP pancreatitis(PEP)were the outcomes of interest.Pairwise and network meta-analysis and ranking according to surface under the cumulative ranking curve(SUCRA)for all methods were performed.Results Eighteen RCTs were identified according to selection criteria,and 2 033 patients were enrolled.The use of transpancreatic sphincterotomy over persistent standard cannulation technique(RR=1.34,95%CI:1.02-1.77)and over pancreatic guidewire-assisted technique(RR=1.26,95%CI:1.00-1.60)significantly increased the success rate of biliary cannulation.Based on SUCRA ranking,transpancreatic sphincterotomy followed by early needle-knife techniques were ranked highest in terms of increasing the success rate of biliary cannulation.Only early needle-knife technique significantly decreased PEP rate when compared with persistent standard cannulation technique(RR=0.53,95%CI:0.30-0.94),whereas both early needle-knife techniques and transpancreatic sphincterotomy led to lower PEP rates as compared with pancreatic guidewire-assisted technique(RR=0.41,95%CI:0.17-0.99;RR=0.49,95%CI:0.25-0.96;respectively).Based on SUCRA ranking,early needle-knife technique followed by transpancreatic sphincterotomy were ranked highest for decreasing the PEP rate of biliary cannulation.Conclusions Transpancreatic sphincterotomy increases the success rate of difficult biliary cannulation in ERCP;early needle-knife technique and transpancreatic sphincterotomy are superior to other interventions in decreasing PEP rates and should be considered as a choice of difficult biliary cannulation.

Objective:To explore the value of nomogram based on dual-energy CT (DECT) enhanced imaging in predicting postoperative recurrence-free survival (RFS) of early-stage glottic carcinoma (EGC).Methods:The clinicopathological and DECT data of patients with EGC confirmed by pathology in the Tianjin First Central Hospital from January 2015 to July 2018 were analyzed retrospectively. A total of 178 patients were enrolled, including 162 males and 16 females, with the age from 44 to 86 (62±9) years old. According to the follow-up data, the patients were divided into recurrent group ( n=32) and non-recurrent group ( n=146). The differences of clinicopathological data and DECT iodine maps parameters between the two groups were analyzed using χ 2 test, independent-sample t test and Mann-Whitney U test. The survival related cut-off values of the quantitative data between the two groups were selected by X-tile software. The survival curve was drawn using Kaplan-Meier method, and the difference of survival rate was tested with log-rank analysis. The variables with statistical differences were included in the Cox proportional hazard model for multivariate analysis to select the independent predictors of postoperative RFS. Based on the multivariate Cox analysis, the nomogram was drawn to predict the RFS at 1, 2 and 5 years. The prediction efficiency and clinical benefit of the nomogram were evaluated by C-index, calibration curve and decision curve analysis. Results:The median follow-up time was 24.3 months, ranging from 2 to 63 months. There was a significant difference in T-stage between recurrent and non-recurrent groups (χ2=9.21, P=0.002). The prognostic cutoff values obtained by X-tile software were arterial phase standardized iodine concentration (SIC AP)=0.28 and venous phase standardized iodine concentration (SIC VP)=0.87. The results of log-rank test showed that there were significant differences in RFS among patients with different T-stage, SIC AP and SIC VP (χ2=10.74, 15.50, 17.97, P=0.001,<0.001,<0.001). T-stage, SIC AP and SIC VP were identified as independent predictors of postoperative RFS (hazard ratio=2.271, 3.552, 3.266, P=0.026,<0.001, 0.003). The C-index of the nomogram combined with DECT parameter and T-stage was 0.785, which was higher than that of T-stage alone (0.622). The calibration curve showed that there was good consistency between the actual and predicted probability of the sample. The decision curve analysis showed that the clinical benefit of the nomogram was higher than that of the T-stage alone. Conclusion:The nomogram based on preoperative clinical factors (T-stage) and DECT iodine map factors (SIC AP and SIC vp) can predict the postoperative RFS of patients with EGC.
