Cognitive dysfunction caused by blast traumatic brain injury (bTBI) is a serious neurological disease with high incidence, serious condition and poor prognosis. bTBI can lead to a series of symptoms such as short-term memory loss, inattention or multi-tasking difficulties. In severe cases, bTBI can develop into Alzheimer′s disease, which has a great impact on patients′ normal work and life. At present, researches on cognitive dysfunction caused by bTBI mainly involve model construction, pathogenesis, pathophysiological changes, diagnosis and treatment, etc., and the molecular mechanism of its occurrence remains to be further studied. Under normal physiological conditions, the release of excitatory and inhibitory neurotransmitters, the release and uptake of Ca 2+, oxidation and antioxidant systems, and the promotion and inhibition of apoptosis are in a dynamic balance. bTBI disturbs the balance, which will lead to the damage of nerve cells at the molecular level, thus resulting in the occurrence of cognitive dysfunction. To this end, the authors summarized the aspects of excitatory toxicity and Ca 2+homeostasis disorder, oxidative stress, inflammation and edema, apoptosis, etc., and reviewed the research progress on the molecular mechanism of cognitive dysfunction caused by bTBI, so as to provide a reference for the treatment and rehabilitation of cognitive dysfunction in patients with bTBI.

Objective:To explore the effect of simulated gas of thermobaric bomb charge explosion on cognitive function and the related mechanism of damage.Methods:In January 2022, thirty-two SPF rats were selected and randomly divided into control group, exposed group 1, 2 and 3 (the exposure time of the simulated gas of the explosion of the thermobaric bomb charge was 5 min, 10 min and 15 min, respectively) according to random number table method, with 8 rats in each group. The simulated gas of the explosion of the thermobaric bomb charge were CO 0.15%, CO 2 3%, NO 0.1%, O 2 15%, and the rest were N 2. After 30 days of exposure, water maze was used to detect the learning and memory function of rats. Golgi staining was used to observe the number distribution and morphological structure of hippocampal neurons in rats. Western blot was used to detect the expression of Tau-5, pSer262, pSer396, pThr181 and pThr231 proteins in rats. Repeated measure ANOVA was used to compare the design data of repeated measure, one-way ANOVA was used for multi-group mean comparison, and LSD method was used for pound-wise comparison. Results:There were significant differences in the results of repeated measurement ANOVA of the water maze localization navigation test ( F=80.98, P<0.001), and there was an interaction between the group and the training days ( F=2.16, P=0.022). There were significant differences in escape latency of rats at the 2nd, 3rd, 4th and 5th days among all groups ( P<0.05). The results of spatial exploration showed that the frequency of rats crossing the platform was significantly different among all groups ( F=4.49, P=0.011). The frequency of rats crossing the platform in exposed group 2 and exposed group 3 was lower than that in control group, and the frequency of rats crossing the platform in exposed group 3 was lower than that in exposed group 1 ( P<0.05). With the increase of exposure time, the number of hippocampal neurons decreased, and the dendrite spine density of neurons in CA1 region decreased ( P<0.05). Compared with the control group, there was no significant difference in the relative expression level of Tau-5 protein in all exposed groups ( P>0.05), but the expression level of pSer262 protein was significantly increased ( P<0.05). Compared with the control group, the protein expressions of pSer396, pThr181 and pThr231 in exposed group 2 and exposed group 3 were significantly increased ( P<0.05) . Conclusion:The simulated gas of the explosion of the thermobaric bomb charge may contribute to the development of cognitive dysfunction by damaging hippocampal neurons with aberrant phosphorylation of Tau proteins.

Conclusion Older, low physical activity level, poor sleep quality, underweight and obesity are associated with frailty of the elderly.

Objective:To investigate the influence of curative-intent resection with textbook outcomes of liver surgery (TOLS) on long-term prognosis of gallbladder carcinoma (GBC).Methods:The retrospective cohort study was conducted. The clinicopathological data of 824 patients with GBC in the national multicenter database of Biliary Surgery Group of Elite Group of Chinese Journal of Digestive Surgery, who were admitted to 15 medical centers from January 2014 to January 2021, were collected. There were 285 males and 539 females, aged (62±11)years. According to the evalua-tion criteria of TOLS, patients were divided into those who achieved TOLS and those who did not achieve TOLS. Measurement data with normal distribution were represented as Mean± SD, and com-parison between groups was conducted using the independent sample t test. Measurement data with skewed distribution were represented as M( Q1, Q3), and comparison between groups was conducted using the Mann-Whitney U test. Count data were described as absolute numbers, and comparison between groups was conducted using the chi-square test. Comparison of ordinal data were conduc-ted using the Mann-Whitney U test. The Kaplan-Meier method was used to calculate survival rate and draw survival curve, and the Log-rank test was used for survival analysis. The COX stepwise regression model with backward Wald method was used for univariate and multivariate analyses. Results:(1) Achievement of TOLS. Of the 824 patients undergoing curative-intent resection for GBC, there were 510 cases achieving TOLS and 314 cases not achieving TOLS. (2) Follow-up. Of the 824 patients undergoing curative-intent resection for GBC, after excluding 112 deaths within 90 days after discharge, 712 cases were included for the survival analysis. The median follow-up time, median overall survival time and 5-year overall survival rate of the 510 patients achieving TOLS were 22.1(11.4,30.1)months, 47.6(30.6,64.6)months and 47.5%. The median follow-up time, median overall survival time and 5-year overall survival rate of the 202 patients not achieving TOLS were 14.0(6.8,25.5)months, 24.3(20.0,28.6)months and 21.0%. There was a significant difference in overall survival between patients achieving TOLS and patients not achieving TOLS ( χ2=58.491, P<0.05). (3) Analysis of factors influencing prognosis of patients. Results of multivariate analysis showed that TOLS, carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA), CA19-9, poorly differentiation of tumor, T2 stage of eighth edition of American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC) staging, T3 and T4 stage of eighth edition of AJCC staging, N1 stage of the eighth edition of AJCC staging, N2 stage of the eighth edition of AJCC staging, adjuvant therapy were independent factors influencing overall survival time of patients undergoing curative-intent resection for GBC ( hazard ratio=0.452, 1.479, 1.373, 1.612, 1.455, 1.481, 1.835, 1.978, 0.538, 95% c onfidence interval as 0.352-0.581, 1.141-1.964, 1.052-1.791, 1.259-2.063, 1.102-1.920, 1.022-2.147, 1.380-2.441, 1.342-2.915, 0.382-0.758, P<0.05). Conclusion:Patients under-going curative-intent resection for GBC with TOLS can achieve better long-term prognosis.

Objective:To investigate the efficacy and influencing factors of selective ligation of the middle meningeal artery after drilling and drainage surgery for chronic subdural hematoma.Methods:The clinical data of patients with chronic subdural hemorrhage who underwent routine drilling and drainage surgery in Beijing Geriatric Hospital from October 2018 to January 2021 were taken as the control group; The clinical data of patients with chronic subdural hemorrhage who underwent routine drilling and drainage surgery and ligation of the middle meningeal artery in the same hospital from February 2021 to January 2023 was taken as the observation group.Results:Comparison of CSDH Markwalder grading scale and Glasgow coma scale (MGS-GCS) neurosurgical dysfunction grading before and after surgery between the control group and the observation group showed statistically significant differences ( χ2 = 34.56 and 63.39, P<0.01). There was statistically significant difference in the grading of postoperative MGS-GCS neurosurgical dysfunction between the control group and the observation group ( χ2 = 4.34, P = 0.037); the recurrence rate of the observation group was lower than that of the control group: 10.6% (5/47) vs. 28.0% (14/50), with statistical differences ( χ2 = 4.63, P = 0.031). The factors that reduce recurrence in the middle meningeal artery ligation group included Alzheimer disease coronary heart disease, males, oral antipsychotic and oral anticoagulant ( χ2 = 15.25, 4.36, 6.09, 12.63 and 8.68; P<0.05). Conclusions:Preliminary exploration has found that selective ligation of the middle meningeal artery during the drilling and drainage surgery for chronic subdural hematoma can reduce postoperative recurrence, especially suitable for patients with Alzheimer disease, coronary heart disease, males, oral antipsychotic and oral anticoagulant. After preoperative CT skull reconstruction and pruning to obtain the sulcus of the middle meningeal artery, the body surface localization of the ligation of the middle meningeal artery can be obtained. This surgery is safe and there is no additional damage to the cranial nerve. The efficacy of this surgical technique is expected to be further validated through large-scale, multicenter, randomized controlled studies.

Objective:To explore the application of a scenario-based onsite first-aid skills station in objective structured clinical examination (OSCE).Methods:Based on common scenarios and cases in medical practice, an evaluation framework of the OSCE onsite first-aid skills station—containing assessment indicators, exam room setting, examiner training, and assessment process—was designed to evaluate the onsite first-aid competencies of medical graduates of the five-year program for three consecutive years. SPSS 24.0 was used to perform the Kruskal-Wallis test and Pearson correlation analysis to calculate the correlation between course examination scores and OSCE onsite first-aid skills station assessment scores. Excel was used to calculate the difficulty index and discrimination index of test items.Results:The graduates' OSCE onsite first-aid skills station assessment scores were improved year by year, with a mean score of about 80 points. The station assessment items showed a moderate difficulty level (0.7-0.8), a good discrimination level (>0.4), and good internal consistency (Cronbach's α>0.7). The examiners and examinees had a high recognition of the design and effectiveness of this station assessment method. There was a positive correlation between the OSCE scores and corresponding course scores (2016, r=0.245, P=0.001; 2017, r=0.108, P=0.026; 2018, r=0.198, P=0.006). Conclusions:Through scientific scoring and strict examination management, the OSCE scenario-based onsite first-aid skills station can effectively evaluate examinees' injury treatment competencies in different situations, which can provide a reference for course teaching.

To summarize the clinical features of pancreatic tuberculosis, analyze its endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS) findings, aspiration histopathology and etiological results, the medical history, clinical manifestations, laboratory tests, imaging findings, EUS findings, pathological and etiological results of endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine needle aspiration (EUS-FNA) biopsy, of 14 patients with pancreatic tuberculosis in Wuhan Union Hospital from January 2018 to January 2022 were retrospectively analyzed. Among the patients with pancreatic tuberculosis, 7 were male and 7 were female with the age of 39.7±16.0 years. The main clinical manifestations were abdominal distention, abdominal pain, loss of appetite, weight loss, abdominal mass, obstructive jaundice, skin pruritus, asymptomatic. Seven patients with pancreatic tuberculosis were complicated with tuberculosis in other organs, including 3 patients with pulmonary tuberculosis. Laboratory examination results showed 7 patients with anemia, 3 with elevated serum amylase, 2 with elevated bilirubin and 10 with positive anti-tuberculosis antibody, 12 positive for tuberculosis T-SPOT. Levels of CA19-9 in all patients were within normal range. Imaging examination results showed that 9 cases were solid mass, 4 cystic solid mass, 1 cystic mass, 4 with enlarged peripancreatic lymph node, and 2 with dilated bile duct. EUS showed that head of pancreas was the most common location of pancreatic tuberculosis. All the lesions were hyperechoic without vascular invasion, including 8 cases with homogeneous hyperecho, 6 cases with inhomogeneous hyperecho, 2 cases with hyperechoic calcification and 1 case of echoless colliquative necrosis area. The diameter of the mass was 3.9±1.6 cm, with 5 cases <3 cm and 9 cases ≥3 cm. Pathological biopsy showed 12 cases of caseous granuloma. Etiological examination results showed that 11 cases were positive for polymerase chain reaction for mycobacterium tuberculosis, 3 positive for acid-fast stain, 1 positive for culture. All the patients were treated with regular anti-tuberculosis drugs, and 3 patients with jaundice were treated with endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography and biliary stent placement. All patients showed good prognosis during the follow-up period. For patients with pancreatic space-occupying lesions, the possibility of pancreatic tuberculosis should be considered. The current diagnostic method relies on tissue biopsy and aetiological examination. EUS-FNA is the preferred method for obtaining pancreatic tissue to avoid unnecessary surgery, and to provide timely and accurate diagnosis. Regular anti-tuberculosis treatment is the main treatment for pancreatic tuberculosis.
