In the field of biomedicine,two-dimensional(2D)cell lines and animal models have played an im-portant role in the study of cell pathways and drug targets.However,due to species differences between humans and other animals,and the lack of hierarchy,cellular diversity,and cell-cell or cell-matrix interactions,2D cell lines could not ful-ly reflect what cells actually look like in the human body.Organoids are three-dimensional(3D)in vitro culture models de-rived from autologous tissue stem cells,which make up for the defects of 2D culture and can simulate the structure and function of real human organs to a certain extent,providing new ideas for disease diagnosis and treatment.Among them,lung organoids(LO)are a typical case studying the development process of human lung and the generation principle of lung diseases.Relevant studies have provided help for the treatment of pulmonary fibrosis,lung cancer,lung injury and other diseases.This paper aims to summarize and analyze the research progress of lung organoids in recent years,and fur-ther summarize the application of LO in the diagnosis and treatment of lung diseases.

There are more than 1 billion patients worldwide suffering from hepatobiliary diseases, yet there remains a scarcity of successful practices and frameworks in standardizing, inte-grating, and sharing disease data. In response to this challenge, Beijing Tsinghua Changgung Hospital affiliated to Tsinghua University, in collaboration with various medical and information technology institutions, has developed the 'Blockchain-Based Hepatobiliary Disease Data Extraction and Exchange' standard. This standard, known as the IEEE 3806-2023 standard, is establishing China′s first inter-national standard for the application of hepatobiliary disease data. The authors elucidate the origins, application scope, key contents, and clinical significance of this standard, with the aim of aiding medical establishments, pharmaceutical companies, and other stakeholders in comprehending the data extraction and exchange standard for hepatobiliary diseases, thereby facilitating its wider adop-tion and implementation.

Objective:To explore the effect and mechanism of different processing motivation on college students' intergroup interaction willingness by technology of eye movement.Methods:Sixty college students conforming to the study conditions were selected from Northwest Normal University and randomly divided into ingroup motivation group ( n=30) and outgroup motivation group ( n=30) according to the random number table method. Subjects of the two groups first participated in the eye movement task, and then participated in the partner selection task.In the eye movement task, the percentage of time that subjects looked at faces of different groups was recorded.And in the partner selection task, the number of selections that subjects selected faces from different groups was recorded.SPSS 20.0 software was used for repeated measurement analysis of variance. Results:(1) In the eye movement task, there was a significant interaction of group and face group type ( F=13.37, P<0.001), but the main effects of group( F=3.23, P=0.077), and face group type ( F=0.09, P>0.05) were not significant. Further simple effect analysis showed that the percentage of time that the ingroup motors looked at the yellow race((16.00±0.06)%) was significantly higher than that of the outgroup motors ((12.00±0.04)%), and the percentage of time that the outgroup motors looked at the white race((17.00±0.06)%) was significantly higher than that of the ingroup motors ((9.00±0.04)%). (2) In the task of partner selection, there was a significant interaction among group, face group type and face old and new types( F=4.38, P=0.041), and the main effect of face group type was significant( F=14.87, P<0.001). The main effect of old and new types of face was significant( F=8.88, P=0.004), but the main effect of group was not significant ( P>0.05). Further simple effect analysis showed that the two groups of college students had statistically significant differences in the selection times of familiar faces from different groups( F=11.51, P=0.001). The number of times that the ingroup generator (5.51±1.14) selected the familiar yellow race as its partner was significantly greater than that of the outgroup generator (2.30±0.65). The number of times that the outgroup generator (5.40±1.00) selected the familiar white race as its partner was significantly greater than that of the ingroup generator (3.47±0.94). (3)Preferential attention to the ingroup members was a mediator between processing motivation and intergroup interaction willingness (mediating effect=0.20, 95% CI=0.02-0.31). Conclusion:Ingroup processing motivation has a threatening effect on college students' intergroup interaction willingness, outgroup processing motivation has a promoting effect on college students' intergroup interaction willingness, and processing motivation affects intergroup interaction willingness through ingroup bias.

Biliary atresia is a rare congenital disease of children with unknown pathogenesis and biliary obstruction, which is mainly manifested with progressive inflammation and fibrous obstruction of the biliary system inside and outside the liver, and subsequently develop into cholestatic cirrhosis and liver failure. Although biliary atresia is rare, it is the most common cause of cholestasis during the infancy period. If surgical treatment were not performed (such as Kasai operation and liver transplantation), children may die in a short period of time. Kasai operation can improve biliary drainage, whereas it fails to change the outcomes of children with biliary atresia. Most of them will still suffer from persistent liver injury due to cholestasis, and eventually require liver transplantation. At present, there is no consensus on whether Kasai operation should be performed prior to liver transplantation. In this article, research progress on the diagnosis and surgical treatment of biliary atresia was reviewed, aiming to provide reference for clinical diagnosis and treatment of biliary atresia and improve the survival of children with biliary atresia.

Objective:To investigate the protective effect of pine pollen on lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced learning and memory impairments in mice and the underlying mechanism.Methods:Sixty mice were randomly divided into four groups ( n = 15/group): normal control, model, low-dose pine pollen (500 mg/kg) and high-dose pine pollen (1 000 mg/kg). Mouse models of learning and memory impairment were established by lateral ventricle injection of LPS. The learning and memory abilities of mice were determined by the Morris water maze test. Superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity and glutathione (GSH) and malondialdehyde (MDA) levels in the hippocampus of mice were measured. Interleukin-6 (IL-6), tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), dopamine (DA), and norepinephrine (NE) levels in the hippocampus were also determined. Results:The latency in the passive avoidance test in the model group was significantly shorter than that in the normal control group [(134.80 ± 33.89) s vs. (282.20 ± 17.43) s, t = 4.23, P < 0.01]. The number of errors in the model group was significantly higher than that in the normal control group [(4.00 ± 1.58) vs. (1.20 ± 1.30) times, t = 2.85, P < 0.01]. The latency in the passive avoidance test in the low-dose pine pollen (500 mg/kg) and high-dose pine pollen (1000 mg/kg) groups was significantly longer than that in the normal control group [(189.40 ± 27.21) s or (213.40 ± 21.26) s vs. (134.80 ± 33.89) s, t = 3.21, 4.38, all P < 0.05]. The number of errors in the low-dose pine pollen (500 mg/kg) and high-dose pine pollen (1 000 mg/kg) groups was significantly lower than that in the normal control group [(1.60 ± 1.44) times or (1.40 ± 1.44) times vs. (4.00 ± 1.58) times, t = 5.12, 6.42, both P < 0.05]. SOD activity and GSH, DA and NE levels in the hippocampus in the model group were significantly decreased compared with the normal control group [SOD: (7.59 ± 1.77) kU/g vs. (39.90 ± 6.37) kU/g; GSH: (3.49 ± 0.13) mmol/g vs. (6.37 ± 0.14) mmol/g; DA: (418.42 ± 2.57) ng/L vs. (586.37 ± 3.64) ng/L; NE: (187.20 ± 5.41) ng/L vs. (298.42 ± 2.32) ng/L, t = 3.67, 8.23, 2.23, 3.65, all P < 0.05]. MDA, IL-6 and TNF-α levels in the hippocampus in the normal control group were significantly higher than those in the model group [MDA: (8.79 ± 0.82) mmol/g vs. (2.62 ± 0.16) mmol/g, IL-6: (48.07 ± 5.56) ng/L vs. (18.76 ± 1.42) ng/L, TNF-α: (87.20 ± 4.31) ng/L vs. (22.42 ± 3.39) ng/L, t = 7.45, 2.67, 4.35, P < 0.05 or P < 0.01]. SOD activity, GSH, DA and NE levels in the hippocampus in the low-dose pine pollen (500 mg/kg) and high-dose pine pollen (1 000 mg/kg) groups were significantly higher than those in the model group [SOD: (18.80 ± 2.39) kU/g, (28.70 ± 2.36) kU/g vs. (7.59 ± 1.77) kU/g, GSH: (5.04 ± 0.36) mmol/g, (5.45 ± 0.17) mmol/g vs. (3.49 ± 0.13) mmol/g, DA: (488.37 ± 3.46) ng/L, (506.29 ± 5.72) ng/L vs. (418.42 ± 2.57) ng/L, NE: (225.65 ± 3.72) ng/L, (239.76 ± 5.58) ng/L vs. (187.20 ± 5.41) ng/L, t = 4.56 or 6.71, t = 4.65 or 5.32, t = 4.73 or 6.72, t = 3.84 or 5.63, P < 0.05 or P < 0.01]. MDA, IL-6 and TNF-α levels in the hippocampus in the low-dose pine pollen (500 mg/kg) and high-dose pine pollen (1 000 mg/kg) groups were significantly lower than those in the model group [MDA: (5.72 ± 0.47) mmol/g, (3.77 ± 0.23) mmol /g vs. (8.79 ± 0.82) mmol/g, IL-6: (28.42 ± 3.54) ng/L, (23.43 ± 5.62) ng/L vs. (48.07 ± 5.56) ng/L, TNF-α: (48.87 ± 4.82) ng/L, (39.65 ± 6.69) ng/L vs. (87.20 ± 4.31) ng/L, t = 6.31 or 7.28, t = 3.46 or 6.31, t = 4.28 or 3.57, P < 0.05 or P < 0.01]. Conclusion:Pine pollen can improve LPS-induced learning and memory impairments possibly through up-regulating the levels of monoamine neurotransmitters DA and NE and inhibiting the levels of oxidative stress and inflammatory reaction in the hippocampus of mice.

And the intestinal flora diversity was impacted after feeding alcohol , and probiotics had a certain regulative action in helping the intestinal flora back to normal state; At phylum level , the Firmicutes quantity was lower and the Bacteroidetes quantity was higher in eth-anol-treated group than those in the control group ( P<0.05 ) , and the conditions were improved after supple-menting probiotics .At genus level , the percent of ge-nus abundance was similar to normal control group in the probiotics treatment groups compared with the etha-nol-treated group .Conclusion Probiotics can relieve liver injury induced by alcohol in rats , and the mecha-nism may be related to the modulation of probiotics on the intestinal flora distribution and intestinal barrier .

OBJECTIVETo explore the influence of visceral fat area(VFA) on laparoscopic radical gastrectomy and short-term outcome in patients with gastric carcinoma.

METHODSClinicopathological and imaging data of 202 patients with gastric cancer who were treated by laparoscopic radical gastrectomy in the Affiliated Hospital of Qingdao University from May 2011 to July 2014 were retrospectively analyzed. VFA of all the patients were measured by CT, of which more than 10 000 m(2) were found in 104 patients(VFA-L group), less than 10 000 m2 in other 98 patients (VFA-S group). Intraoperative and postoperative outcomes were compared between the two groups.

RESULTSThere were no differences in operation time, intraoperative blood loss and number of harvested lymph node between the two groups(all P>0.05). As compared to VFA-S group, VFA-L group had a higher incidence of conversion to open surgery[9.6%(10/104) vs. 2.0%(2/98), P=0.023], higher complication rate [22.1%(23/104) vs. 10.2%(10/98), P=0.003], longer postoperative fever time [(3.0±1.3) d vs. (2.4±1.1) d, P=0.000], total length of hospital stay [(18.6±11.8) d vs. (15.8±6.0) d, P=0.039]. There were no significant differences in first flatus passage time and total hospitalization costs between the two groups.

CONCLUSIONElevated VFA can raise the difficulty of laparoscopic radical gastrectomy, increase the risk of postoperative complication and prolong the postoperative recovery.
