Objective To investigate the clinical and pathological features of adenoid basal cell carcinoma(ABC),adenoid cystic carcinoma(ACC),and basaloid squamous cell carcinoma(BSCC)with basaloid charac-teristics and improve the diagnostic and differential diagnostic ability of clinicians and pathologists for these lesions.Methods A retrospective study was conducted on the clinical and pathological data of 4 cases of ABC,1 case of ACC,and 3 cases of BSCC diagnosed and treated at Shenzhen Maternal and Child Health Hospital,Southern Medical University from April 2018 to December 2022.Pathological slides were reviewed and relevant literature was analyzed and summarized.Results All three types of tumors were common in postmenopausal women and were associated with high-risk HPV infection.ABC was a low-grade cancer and patients were often clinically asymp-tomatic.It was usually detected incidentally during cervical screening due to cytological abnormalities,or after cervical cone biopsy or hysterectomy for HSIL.It presented as superficial cervical infiltration and clinical staging was often early.ACC and BSCC were intermediate to high-grade cancers and they often presented with postmenopausal vaginal bleeding.A visible mass was observed on the cervix.The clinical staging was intermediate to advanced.The three types of lesions could coexist.Careful observation of the morphological characteristics and immunohistochemical staining could help with differential diagnosis.None of the 8 patients experienced recurrence or metastasis during follow-up.Conclusion Cervical ABC,ACC and BSCC are rare and they originate from reserve cells.They share the similarities in clinical and pathological morphology,but differ in treatment and prognosis.So,accurate differen-tiation among them has important clinical significance.

BACKGROUND:The type of graft selected during anterior cruciate ligament revision is considered one of the main factors affecting the postoperative outcome,but there are few reports on the comparison between different graft materials. OBJECTIVE:To explore the medium-to-long-term clinical efficacy after anterior cruciate ligament revision with autologous ligament,allogeneic ligament,and LARS artificial ligament. METHODS:A total of 67 patients with the first anterior cruciate ligament revision admitted to the Department of Joint and Sports Medicine,The Second Hospital of Tangshan from May 2011 to May 2020 were selected,including 41 males and 26 females,with a mean age of(45.83±7.39)years.They were divided into three groups according to different grafts used:autologous ligament group(n=24),allogeneic ligament group(n=22),and LARS artificial ligament group(n=21).Follow-up for more than 36 months after revision was performed to evaluate the effect of revision. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)International Knee Documentation Committee(IKDC)score,Lysholm knee score,and Tegner motor score 1 year after surgery and at the last follow-up in the three groups were higher than those before surgery(P<0.05).There were no significant differences in IKDC score,Lysholm knee score,and Tegner motor score among the three groups 1 year after surgery and the last follow-up(P>0.05).(2)The lateral differences of KT-1000 at 1 year after surgery and the last follow-up among the three groups were lower than those before surgery(P<0.05).The lateral difference of KT-1000 and the positive rate of the axial shift test in the last follow-up of the LARS artificial ligament group were higher than those in the autologous ligament group and allogeneic ligament group(P<0.05).(3)At the last follow-up,X-ray films showed no obvious enlargement of the reconstructed bone tunnel and no obvious failure of the graft fixation device.There was no obvious aggravation of osteoarthritis,but bone density decreased significantly in some elderly patients.(4)These findings suggest that anterior cruciate ligament revision with LARS artificial ligaments can obtain good initial stability,but with the extension of time,the stability of partial cases tends to decrease,even with reconstructed ligament failure.Both allogeneic and autogenous ligaments can obtain good clinical efficacy in anterior cruciate ligament revision.

Objective:To investigate the prognosis of patients with initially resectable gastric cancer liver metastasis (GCLM) who were treated by different modalities, and analyze the influencing factors for prognosis of patients.Methods:The retrospective cohort study was conducted. The clinicopathological data of 327 patients with initially resectable GCLM who were included in the database of a nationwide multicenter retrospective cohort study on GCLM based on real-world data from January 2010 to December 2019 were collected. There were 267 males and 60 females, aged 61(54,68)years. According to the specific situations of patients, treatment modalities included radical surgery combined with systemic treatment, palliative surgery combined with systemic treatment, and systemic treatment alone. Observation indicators: (1) clinical characteristics of patients who were treated by different modalities; (2) prognostic outcomes of patients who were treated by different modalities; (3) analysis of influencing factors for prognosis of patients with initially resectable GCLM; (4) screening of potential beneficiaries in patients who were treated by radical surgery plus systemic treatment and patients who were treated by palliative surgery plus systemic treatment. Measurement data with normal distribution were represented as Mean± SD, and comparison 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 rank sum test. Count data were described as absolute numbers or percentages, and comparison between groups was conducted using the chi-square test. The Kaplan-Meier method was used to calculate survival rate and draw survival curve, and Log-Rank test was used for survival analysis. Univariate and multivariate analyses were conducted using the COX proportional hazard regression model. The propensity score matching was employed by the 1:1 nearest neighbor matching method with a caliper value of 0.1. The forest plots were utilized to evaluate potential benefits of diverse surgical combined with systemic treatments within the population. Results:(1) Clinical characteristics of patients who were treated by different modalities. Of 327 patients, there were 118 cases undergoing radical surgery plus systemic treatment, 164 cases undergoing palliative surgery plus systemic treatment, and 45 cases undergoing systemic treatment alone. There were significant differences in smoking, drinking, site of primary gastric tumor, diameter of primary gastric tumor, site of liver metastasis, and metastatic interval among the three groups of patients ( P<0.05). (2) Prognostic outcomes of patients who were treated by different modalities. The median overall survival time of the 327 pati-ents was 19.9 months (95% confidence interval as 14.9-24.9 months), with 1-, 3-year overall survival rate of 61.3%, 32.7%, respectively. The 1-year overall survival rates of patients undergoing radical surgery plus systemic treatment, palliative surgery plus systemic treatment and systemic treatment alone were 68.3%, 63.1%, 30.6%, and the 3-year overall survival rates were 41.1%, 29.9%, 11.9%, showing a significant difference in overall survival rate among the three groups of patients ( χ2=19.46, P<0.05). Results of further analysis showed that there was a significant difference in overall survival rate between patients undergoing radical surgery plus systemic treatment and patients undergoing systemic treatment alone ( hazard ratio=0.40, 95% confidence interval as 0.26-0.61, P<0.05), between patients undergoing palliative surgery plus systemic treatment and patients under-going systemic treatment alone ( hazard ratio=0.47, 95% confidence interval as 0.32-0.71, P<0.05). (3) Analysis of influencing factors for prognosis of patients with initially resectable GCLM. Results of multivariate analysis showed that the larger primary gastric tumor, poorly differentiated tumor, larger liver metastasis, multiple hepatic metastases were independent risk factors for prognosis of patients with initially resectable GCLM ( hazard ratio=1.20, 1.70, 1.20, 2.06, 95% confidence interval as 1.14-1.27, 1.25-2.31, 1.04-1.42, 1.45-2.92, P<0.05) and immunotherapy or targeted therapy, the treatment modality of radical or palliative surgery plus systemic therapy were independent protective factors for prognosis of patients with initially resectable GCLM ( hazard ratio=0.60, 0.39, 0.46, 95% confidence interval as 0.42-0.87, 0.25-0.60, 0.30-0.70, P<0.05). (4) Screening of potentinal beneficiaries in patients who were treated by radical surgery plus systemic treatment and patients who were treated by palliative surgery plus systemic treatment. Results of forest plots analysis showed that for patients with high-moderate differentiated GCLM and patients with liver metastasis located in the left liver, the overall survival rate of patients undergoing radical surgery plus systemic treatment was better than patients undergoing palliative surgery plus systemic treatment ( hazard ratio=0.21, 0.42, 95% confidence interval as 0.09-0.48, 0.23-0.78, P<0.05). Conclusions:Compared to systemic therapy alone, both radical and palliative surgery plus systemic therapy can improve the pro-gnosis of patients with initially resectable GCLM. The larger primary gastric tumor, poorly differen-tiated tumor, larger liver metastasis, multiple hepatic metastases are independent risk factors for prognosis of patients with initial resectable GCLM and immunotherapy or targeted therapy, the treatment modality of radical or palliative surgery plus systemic therapy are independent protective factors for prognosis of patients with initially resectable GCLM.

Purpose To elucidate the clinicopathological characteristics of primary malignant giant cell tumor of bone(PMGCTB)with mainly osteosarcoma-like morphology.Meth-ods Clinicopathologic features of 7 cases of PMGCTB were ret-rospectively analyzed.Results Among 7 patients with PMGCTB,there were 4 females and 3 males,aged between 9 and 66 years(mean age 39.5 years,median age 35 years).The distal femur emerged as the most frequent site to be involved(3/6).The main clinical manifestations included pain and swelling at the original site of the tumor.Radiological findings indicated osteolytic lesions,often combined with sclerotic areas;most ca-ses showed cortical bone destruction and soft tissue masses(5/7).Histologically,the majority of tumors exhibited typical mor-phological features of osteosarcoma with a few or without osteo-clast-like multinucleated giant cells.Positive immunoreaction with H3F3A G34W was confirmed in 6 cases and with H3F3A G34V in 1 case.SATB2 and p63 were positive in all cases,p53 was proved to be wild type,the Ki67 proliferation index ranged approximately from 10％to 50％.H3F3A p.G34W mutation was detected in 6 cases and only 1 case harboring H3F3A p.G34V mutation.Conclusion PMGCTB is exceedingly rare and difficult for accurate diagnosis,especially for those with atypical morphological features.A comprehensive analysis involving ra-diological,immunophenotypic,and molecular detection is neces-sary to rule out other high-grade sarcomas.

Objective:To investigate the clinicopathological characteristics of giant cell tumor of bone (GCTB) in children.Methods:A total of 35 cases of GCTB diagnosed at Shanghai Sixth People′s Hospital Affiliated to Shanghai Jiaotong University School from 2016 to 2023 were collected, and a retrospective analysis of clinicopathological features and imaging findings was conducted.Results:Pediatric GCTB accounted for approximately 4.6% of total GCTB cases during the study period. There were 11 males and 24 females. The onset age ranged from 9 to 18 years (mean age 15 years, median age 16 years), with 8 cases (8/35, 22.9%) experiencing postoperative recurrence. Twenty-eight cases (28/35, 80%) primarily affected long bones, while 7 cases involved small or irregular bones. Imaging revealed osteolytic changes as the predominant feature, with 3 cases exhibited open physis, one of which had the tumor primarily at the diaphysis without crossing the physis. Histologically, pediatric GCTB resembled adult cases, characterized by mononuclear cells and osteoclast-like giant cells. Seven cases with denosumab treatment demonstrated degrees of giant cell disappearance, increased fibrous tissue and reactive bone proliferation in the stroma. One case was diagnosed as pediatric multicentric GCTB, and three cases as pediatric primary malignant GCTB, with malignant transformation into osteosarcoma. In all 35 cases, mutations in the H3F3A gene were identified, comprising 32 cases with H3.3 p.G34W mutations, one case with H3.3 p.G34V mutation, and 2 cases with H3.3 p.G34L mutations. Notably, the former two categories were successfully validated at the protein level through immunohistochemical staining, utilizing highly specific antibodies tailored for these mutation types: H3.3 p.G34W antibody and H3.3 p.G34V antibody. However, immunohistochemical staining was not available for the last category.Conclusions:Pediatric GCTB predominantly affects females and occurs primarily in long bones, mainly around the knee joint, the majority of tumors predominantly arise in the epiphysis and extend into the metaphysis; however, in cases where the epiphyseal plates are still unclosed, the tumors may be restricted to the metaphysis. Detection of H3F3A gene mutation is crucial for the diagnosis and differential diagnosis of pediatric GCTB.

Objective:To compare the efficacy and safety of internal fixation using the olecranon osteotomy approach versus the bilateral triceps approach for the treatment of AO type C distal humeral fractures.Methods:We conducted a systematic search of China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), Wanfang, VIP, Chinese Medical Journal Full-Text Database, PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, and Cochrane Library for clinical studies comparing the olecranon osteotomy approach with the bilateral triceps approach for the treatment of AO type C distal humeral fractures. The search period was from January 2017 to March 2023. A meta-analysis was performed on the included studies. Random-effects models were used for analyses with high inter-group heterogeneity, while fixed-effects models were applied for those with low inter-group heterogeneity.Results:A total of 15 studies were included in the meta-analysis, comprising 480 cases treated via the olecranon osteotomy approach and 443 cases via the bilateral triceps approach. Meta-analysis results showed that the olecranon osteotomy approach was associated with longer operative time [ SMD=0.96, 95% CI(0.23, 1.70), P=0.010] and more intraoperative blood loss [ SMD=1.00, 95% CI(0.22, 1.78), P=0.012]compared to the bilateral triceps approach. There were no statistically significant differences between the two groups in postoperative Mayo Elbow Performance Score [ SMD=0.55, 95% CI(-0.23, 1.32), P=0.167], excellent and good reduction rate [ OR=0.98, 95% CI(0.75, 1.27), P=0.856], postoperative complication rate [ OR=1.27, 95% CI(0.77, 2.09), P=0.344], healing time [ SMD= -0.13, 95% CI(-0.37, 0.11), P=0.280], and range of motion of the elbow joint [ SMD=-0.02, 95% CI(-0.29, 0.26), P=0.891]. Conclusion:The bilateral triceps approach for internal fixation of AO type C distal humeral fractures is associated with shorter operative time and lower intraoperative blood loss compared to the olecranon osteotomy approach. The bilateral triceps approach for internal fixation of AO type C distal humeral fractures is associated with shorter operative time and lower intraoperative blood loss compared to the olecranon osteotomy approach.

Objective:To examine the impact of varied surgical treatment strategies on the prognosis of patients with initial resectable gastric cancer liver metastases (IR-GCLM).Methods:This is a retrospective cohort study. Employing a retrospective cohort design, the study selected clinicopathological data from the national multi-center retrospective cohort study database, focusing on 282 patients with IR-GCLM who underwent surgical intervention between January 2010 and December 2019. There were 231 males and 51 males, aging ( M(IQR)) 61 (14) years (range: 27 to 80 years). These patients were stratified into radical and palliative treatment groups based on treatment decisions. Survival curves were generated using the Kaplan-Meier method and distinctions in survival rates were assessed using the Log-rank test. The Cox risk regression model evaluated HR for various factors, controlling for confounders through multivariate analysis to comprehensively evaluate the influence of surgery on the prognosis of IR-GCLM patients. A restricted cubic spline Cox proportional hazard model assessed and delineated intricate associations between measured variables and prognosis. At the same time, the X-tile served as an auxiliary tool to identify critical thresholds in the survival analysis for IR-GCLM patients. Subgroup analysis was then conducted to identify potential beneficiary populations in different surgical treatments. Results:(1) The radical group comprised 118 patients, all undergoing R0 resection or local physical therapy of primary and metastatic lesions. The palliative group comprised 164 patients, with 52 cases undergoing palliative resections for gastric primary tumors and liver metastases, 56 cases undergoing radical resections for gastric primary tumors only, 45 cases undergoing palliative resections for gastric primary tumors, and 11 cases receiving palliative treatments for liver metastases. A statistically significant distinction was observed between the groups regarding the site and the number of liver metastases (both P<0.05). (2) The median overall survival (OS) of the 282 patients was 22.7 months (95% CI: 17.8 to 27.6 months), with 1-year and 3-year OS rates were 65.4% and 35.6%, respectively. The 1-year OS rates for patients in the radical surgical group and palliative surgical group were 68.3% and 63.1%, while the corresponding 3-year OS rates were 42.2% and 29.9%, respectively. A comparison of OS between the two groups showed no statistically significant difference ( P=0.254). Further analysis indicated that patients undergoing palliative gastric cancer resection alone had a significantly worse prognosis compared to other surgical options ( HR=1.98, 95% CI: 1.21 to 3.24, P=0.006). (3) The size of the primary gastric tumor significantly influenced the patients′ prognosis ( HR=2.01, 95% CI: 1.45 to 2.79, P<0.01), with HR showing a progressively increasing trend as tumor size increased. (4) Subgroup analysis indicates that radical treatment may be more effective compared to palliative treatment in the following specific cases: well/moderately differentiated tumors ( HR=2.84, 95% CI 1.49 to 5.41, P=0.001), and patients with liver metastases located in the left lobe of the liver ( HR=2.06, 95% CI 1.19 to 3.57, P=0.010). Conclusions:In patients with IR-GCLM, radical surgery did not produce a significant improvement in the overall prognosis compared to palliative surgery. However, within specific patient subgroups (well/moderately differentiated tumors, and patients with liver metastases located in the left lobe of the liver), radical treatment can significantly improve prognosis compared to palliative approaches.

Conclusions:In patients with IR-GCLM, radical surgery did not produce a significant improvement in the overall prognosis compared to palliative surgery. However, within specific patient subgroups (well/moderately differentiated tumors, and patients with liver metastases located in the left lobe of the liver), radical treatment can significantly improve prognosis compared to palliative approaches.

Objective Based on TLR4/NF-κB/MLCK pathway,the therapeutic effect and mechanism of Baihe Dihuang Decoction on insomnia with intestinal flora disturbance in mice induced by p-chlorophenlalanine(PCPA)and multi-factor stimulation were studied.The aim is to provide theoretical basis for clinical use.Methods Eighty-four KM mice were randomly divided into normal group,model group,positive group(Diazepam,1.38 mg·kg-1),Baihe group(2.25 g·kg-1),Dihuang group(2.25 g·kg-1)and Baihe Dihuang Decoction group(4.5 g·kg-1).Insomnia mouse model was established by intraperitoneal injection of PCPA for 2 days combined with 4 weeks of multi-factor stimulation,including stimulating the tail with forceps clip for 2 minutes,reversing day and night for 24 hours,wetting the padding for 24 hours,tilting the cage at 45° for 24 hours,alternating the cages for 24 hours,fasting food for 24 hours,and getting cold bath for 3 minutes,etc.After successfully modeling,corresponding drug treatment was given.The anxiety-like behavior of mice was observed by elevated cross maze system.The latency and duration of sleep were observed by righting reflex experiment.16sRNA sequencing was used to analyze the composition and structure of intestinal flora in mice.The concentration changes of γ-aminobutyric acid(GABA),glutamic acid(Glu),tryptophan(Trp),5-hydroxytryptophan(5-HTP)and 5-hydroxytryptamine(5-HT)in brain and colon were detected by liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry(LC-MS).Immunohistochemical method was used to detect the expressions of zona atresia protein 1(ZO-1)and Occludin in colon.Real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR(qRT-PCR)was used to detect the genes including interleukin-1β(IL-1β),interleukin-6(IL-6),tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α),ZO-1,Occludin,Toll-like receptor 4(TLR4),nuclear factor κB(NF-κB)and myosin light chain kinase(MLCK)in colonic tissue.Western Blot was used to detect the expressions of TLR4,NF-κB,phosphorylated nuclear factor κB(p-NF-κB),MLCK,myosin light chain(MLC)and phosphorylated myosin light chain(p-MLC)in colonic epithelial tissue.Results Compared with the normal group,the distance of entering the open arm and the duration of stay in the open arm of model group in the elevated cross maze were significantly shortened(P＜0.05).The sleep latency was significantly prolonged,and the sleep duration was significantly shortened(P＜0.05).The richness and uniformity of intestinal flora were decreased(P＜0.05,P＜0.01).The concentration of neurotransmitters GABA,Trp,5-HTP and 5-HT in the brain decreased significantly(P＜0.01),while the concentration of Glu increased significantly(P＜0.01).The concentration of GABA and Glu in colon decreased significantly(P＜0.01),while the concentration of Trp,5-HTP and 5-HT increased significantly(P＜0.01).The expression levels of inflammatory factors IL-1β,IL-6 and TNF-α in colonic tissue were significantly increased(P＜0.01),and the expression levels of ZO-1 and Occludin genes and proteins were significantly decreased(P＜0.01).The gene expression levels of TLR4,NF-κB and MLCK were significantly increased(P＜0.01),and the protein expression levels of TLR4,p-NF-κB,MLCK and p-MLC were significantly increased(P＜0.01).Compared with the model group,Baihe Dihuang Decoction could significantly prolong the distance of entering the open arm and the duration of stay in the open arm of insomnia mice in the elevated cross maze(P＜0.05).The sleep latency was significantly shortened,and the sleep duration was significantly increased(P＜0.05).The richness and uniformity of intestinal flora were increased(P＜0.05,P＜0.01).The concentration of neurotransmitters GABA,Trp,5-HTP and 5-HT in brain was increased(P＜0.05,P＜0.01),and the concentration of Glu was decreased(P＜0.01).The concentration of GABA and Glu in colon was increased(P＜0.01),while the concentration of Trp,5-HTP and 5-HT was decreased(P＜0.05,P＜0.01).The expression levels of IL-1β,IL-6 and TNF-α genes were down-regulated(P＜0.01),the expression levels of ZO-1 and Occludin genes and proteins were up-regulated(P＜0.01),TLR4,NF-κB,MLCK gene expression levels and TLR4,p-NF-κB,MLCK,p-MLC protein expression levels were down-regulated in the pathway(P＜0.01).Conclusion Baihe Dihuang Decoction can effectively treat insomnia with intestinal flora disorders.Its mechanism of action may be related to the regulation of brain and intestinal neurotransmitter disorders,down-regulating TLR4/NF-κB/MLCK signaling pathway,and up-regulating tight junction proteins expression,reducing inflammatory responses,and then repairing the mechanical barrier of intestinal mucosa.

Objective:To evaluate the effect of inhaled medication compliance intervention in elderly patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) based on integrated theory of health behavior change.Methods:A total of 117 elderly COPD patients who visited Respiratory Department of Beijing Chaoyang Hospital Affiliated to Capital Medical University from July to December 2021 were selected by the convenient sampling method. According to the random number table method, they were divided into the experimental group and the control group. 7 cases fell off during follow-up, and a total of 110 cases were finally included in the study, of which 55 cases were in the experimental group and 55 cases in the control group. The control group adopted the conventional health education method, while the experimental group adopted the intervention plan of inhalation medication compliance of elderly COPD patients based on the integrated theory of health behavior change. The accuracy of inhalation device use, inhalant medication compliance, forced expiratory volume in the first second (FEV 1) and Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Diseases Assessment Test (CAT) scores were compared between the two groups before intervention and 3 months after intervention. Results:After 3 months of intervention, the inhalation device use accuracy, inhalation medication compliance in experimental group were higher than those in the control group, the score of CAT in experimental group was lower than that in the control group, the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.05). There was no statistically significant difference in FEV 1 between two groups ( P>0.05) . Conclusions:The intervention plan for inhalation medication compliance in elderly patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease based on the integrated theory of health behavior changes can improve their inhalation medication compliance and improve their quality of life.
