Organoid technology， a rapidly advancing three-dimensional （3D） cell culture platform， can closely mimic the microarchitecture and functions of human digestive organs， effectively overcoming the limitations of conventional two-dimensional cell models and animal experiments. By systematically summarizing the distinctive strengths of organoid technology in simulating digestive physiological and pathological states， constructing digestive system disease models， enabling high-throughput drug screening， and facilitating personalized treatment， this review explored the potential applications of organoids in identifying active components of traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） formulas， evaluating in vitro pharmacokinetics and toxicological parameters， and investigating multi-target synergistic mechanisms. By integrating cutting-edge engineering technologies， organoids are expected to provide a more scientific research platform for TCM， accelerate the modernization of its mechanistic studies， and enhance its scientific value and global impact.

Objective:To explore the clinical efficacy and safety of daratumumab-based combined regimens for relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM).Methods:A retrospective case series study was conducted. The clinical data of 38 patients with RRMM in Jining NO.1 People's Hospital from Janunary 2020 to December 2022 were retrospectively analyzed. All patients were treated with daratumumab-based combined regimens. The Dd regimen (12 cases) was treated with daratumumab and dexamethasone, the DPD regimen (20 cases) was treated with pomalodomide based on the Dd regimen, the DVD regimen (6 cases) was treated with bortezomib based on the Dd regimen. The therapeutic efficacy and adverse reactions of all groups were analyzed. Kaplan-Meier method was used for survival analysis.Results:The median follow-up time was 9.5 months (1.0 months, 32.5 months) and the median treatmemt time was 6.2 months (3.2 months, 25.6 months). Among 38 patients, 7 cases (18.7%) achieved complete remission, 9 cases (23.6%) achieved very good partial remission, 10 cases (26.3%) achieved partial remission, 4 cases (10.5%) achieved minimal remission, 5 cases (13.1%) achieved stable disease, 3 cases (7.9%) had the progression of the disease. The overall response rate (ORR) was 78.9% (30/38). The ORR was 66.7%(8/12), 83.3%(5/6), 85.0%(17/20), respectively in the Dd group, DVD group and DPD group. There was no statistically significant difference in the ORR between the DVD group and DPD group ( χ2 = 0.01, P>0.05); there was no statistically significant difference in the ORR between the DVD group and Dd group ( χ2 = 0.55, P>0.05); there was no statistically significant difference in the ORR between the DPD group and Dd group ( χ2 = 1.47, P>0.05). The median progression-free survival (PFS) time was 12.5 months (95% CI: 8.5-24.2 months),the median overall survival (OS) time was not reached, and the 1-year OS rate was 89.4%. Among 38 patients, the main adverse reactions during treatment were infusion-related adverse reactions in 5 cases, grade 3 neutropenia in 7 cases, grade 3 thrombocytopenia in 9 cases, severe anemia in 12 cases; no one had drug discontinuation or drug reduction due to the intolerance of adverse reactions. Conclusions:Daratumumab-based combined regimens in the treatment of RRMM show a favorable efficacy and safety.

Objective:To explore the clinical effect and safety of venetoclax combined with azacitidine for high-risk myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS).Methods:A retrospective case series study was conducted. The clinical data of 48 patients with high-risk MDS in Jining No.1 People's Hospital from January 2020 to May 2023 were collected, and all patients were divided into the control group (20 cases) and the test group (28 cases) according to medications. The control group was treated with azacitidine alone, and the test group was treated with venetoclax combined with azacitidine regimen. The total effective rate and adverse reactions of the 2 groups were compared after 3 courses of treatment.Results:Among 48 patients, 30 cases were male and 18 cases were females; the median onset age [ M ( Q1, Q3)] was 62 years (54 years, 75 years). There were no statistically significant differences in gender, age, white blood cell count, neutrophil count, hemoglobin, platelet count, bone marrow original cells proportion between the 2 groups (all P>0.05). After 3 courses of treatment, the total effective rate in the test group was 75% (22/28), and the rate in the control group was 45% (9/20), and there was a statistically significant difference between the two groups ( χ2 = 5.74, P<0.05). The incidence of grade 3 and the above adverse reactions in the control group and the test group was 25% (5/20), 54% (15/28), respectively, and the difference was statistically significant ( χ2 = 1.62, P>0.05). Conclusions:Venetoclax combined with azacitidine regimen for high-risk MDS can improve the clinical efficacy, and the adverse reactions can be tolerated.

Adrenal vein sampling is required for the staging diagnosis of primary aldosteronism,and the frames in which the adrenal veins are presented are called key frames.Currently,the selection of key frames relies on the doctor's visual judgement which is time-consuming and laborious.This study proposes a key frame recognition algorithm based on deep learning.Firstly,wavelet denoising and multi-scale vessel-enhanced filtering are used to preserve the morphological features of the adrenal veins.Furthermore,by incorporating the self-attention mechanism,an improved recognition model called ResNet50-SA is obtained.Compared with commonly used transfer learning,the new model achieves 97.11%in accuracy,precision,recall,F1,and AUC,which is superior to other models and can help clinicians quickly identify key frames in adrenal veins.

The pathogenesis of ulcerative colitis(UC)is still unclear,and the pathogenesis based on intestinal mucosal immune imbalance is now widely recognized."Spleen as the defense"refers to the function of the spleen to protect the body and defend against pathogenic factors,which is highly consistent with modern mucosal immunology theory.The abnormal function of"Spleen as the defense"is the key reason for the immune imbalance of UC intestinal mucosa.In this paper,"spleen as the defense"as the starting point,to explore the mechanism of UC intestinal mucosal immune dysfunction,to consolidate the theoretical basis for the treatment of UC based on spleen,and to provide a theoretical basis for the treatment of UC from the perspective of restoring intestinal mucosal immune homeostasis.

Objective:To explore the morphological characteristics of the pectoralis major muscle and the anatomical relationship of adjacent structures .Methods:A total of 156 patients undergoing thyroid surgery at the First Hospital of Anhui University of Science & Technology and the First Affiliated Hospital of University of Science and Technology of China from Dec 2020 to Sep 2022 were includeed. Those adopting routine endoscopic thyroidectomy by gasless unilateral axillary approach were assigned to group A,and searching for the sternocleidomastoid muscle through the pectoralis major muscle gap on this basis to group B.Results:Among the 78 patients in group B, a total of 71 (91%) cases were found to have a typical sternocleidomastoid muscle gap, and in 7 (9%) cases were not found. The morphology phenotypes of the gap between the clavicular part and thoracic ribs part of the pectoralis major muscle was found in 3 types: obvious separation type (typeⅠ), inconspicuous separation-partially overlapped type (typeⅡa), and inconspicuous separation-completely anastomosed type (type Ⅱb). The mean duration of surgery in group B was less (105±15) min than that in group A (156±27) min ( t=14.523, P<0.01); postoperative one day drainage in group B was less (49±6) ml than that in group A (51±6) ml ( t=2.273, P=0.024). There was no statistically significant difference in intraoperative bleeding, postoperative hospital stay and complication rate between the two groups ( t=0.557, P=0.578; t=0.134, P=0.894; χ2=1.844, P=0.174). Conclusion:The search for the sternocleidomastoid muscle through the pectoralis major muscle gap in the endoscopic thyroidectomy by gasless unilateral axillary approach can shorten the duration of surgery and improve the efficiency of surgery.

Objective:To estimate the incidence and mortality of corpus uteri cancer in China, 2015.Methods:Quality audit and evaluation of the data from 2015 cancer registration reported by 501 cancer registries were conducted, and 368 cancer registries were included in the analysis. The incidence rate and mortality rate of corpus uteri cancer were calculated according to the factors of the region (urban, rural, east, central, western), sex and age groups. The incidence and mortality of corpus uteri cancer with the 2015 population were estimated. Chinese standard population in 2000 and world Segi′s population were used for the calculation of age-standardized rates (ASR) of incidence and mortality.Results:In 2015, 368 cancer registries included in the analysis covered a total of 309 553 499 populations in China, accounting for 22.52% of the national population. It is estimated that there were about 68 900 new cases of corpus uteri cancer in 2015, the incidence rate was 10.28/10 5, age-standardized incidence rates by Chinese standard population (ASR China) and world standard population (ASR world) were 6.86/10 5 and 6.66/10 5, respectively. The incidence rate of urban area (11.35/10 5) was higher than that of rural area (8.90/10 5), and the incidence of eastern region (12.12/10 5) was higher than the central region (9.94/10 5) and the western region (8.25/10 5). It is estimated that in 2015, there were about 16 000 deaths of corpus uteri cancer, the mortality rate was 2.39/10 5, ASR China was 1.49/10 5, ASR world was 1.47/10 5. The mortality in urban areas (2.40/10 5) is close to rural areas (2.39/10 5); the mortality in central areas (2.55/10 5) was higher than the eastern areas (2.32/10 5) and the western areas (2.31/10 5). Conclusions:In China, the incidence of corpus uteri cancer is on the rise and has a trend of youth, the burden of disease is gradually increasing, which threatens the health of women. Targeted prevention and control measures should be carried out in the different regions.
