Diabetic nephropathy is one of the important causes of end-stage renal disease, and kidney transplantation is the best treatment option for patients with end-stage renal disease due to diabetes (DN-ESRD). However, patients with DN-ESRD have multiple complex factors that affect glucose homeostasis. Long-term hyperglycemia leads to disordered internal environment and extensive involvement of systemic organs, increasing the risks during the perioperative period of kidney transplantation. This article reviews the perioperative management strategies for kidney transplantation in patients with DN-ESRD, discusses the perioperative risk factors, preoperative evaluation and management, intraoperative volume and internal environment management and early postoperative management, and elaborates on the latest progress in this field.

Objective To analyze the detection efficiency of p16INK4a protein combined with human papillomavirus and liquid-based cytology(LCT)in the screening of cervical precancerous lesions,and to provide a basis for cervical cancer preven-tion and treatment.Methods The results of p16INK4a staining of cervical epithelial cells,human papillomavirus testing and cer-vical cytology were analyzed in 139 inpatients at Guangzhou Women's and Children's Medical Center between January 2019 and December 2020.Of them,there were 111 patients with cervical intraepithelial neoplasia(CIN)and 28 cases of cervical inflam-matory disease.The efficacy of the three methods alone and in combination to screen for CIN lesions was compared.Results In the detection of CIN patients,the sensitivity of p16INK4a,microfluidic microarray and cervical cytology for detecting CIN and a-bove lesions was 91.89% ,94.59% and82.88% ,with specificity of 57.14% ,17.86% and46.43% ,and AUC of 0.75,0.56 and 0.65,respectively;while the sensitivity of"p16INK4a+LCT","p16INK4a+hrHPV","LCT+hrHPV"and their sen-sitivity were 96.40% ,97.30% ,94.59% and 99.10% ,their specificity was 85.71% ,92.86% ,89.29% and 92.86% ,and the AUC was 0.91,0.95,0.92 and 0.96,respectively.Conclusion The combined p16INK4a and hrHPV test helps to improve diagnostic accuracy and early detection,thus allowing for earlier intervention or treatment.This combined application allows for more accurate identification of low-grade and high-grade cervical intraepithelial neoplasia,providing more information for indi-vidualized patient management.

Dopamine is the precursor of biosynthesis of norepinephrine.Low-dose dopamine mainly excites dopamine receptors,which may dilate renal and mesenteric vessels,increase renal blood flow and improve the microcirculation.In recent years,low-dose dopamine has been widely applied in the field of kidney transplantation due to its vasoactive effect.However,with the development of evidence-based medicine,the role of dopamine in protecting the perfusion function of renal allograft in kidney transplantation has been questioned.Multiple studies have shown that dopamine brings no significant benefit to renal and cardiac function in kidney transplantation,exerts low pressor effect,and may even increase the risk of perioperative complications.Norepinephrine may be used as a safe substitute.In this article,recent progress in the effect of dopamine upon renal and cardiac function and hemodynamics during kidney transplantation was reviewed,aiming to provide reference for clinical application of dopamine in kidney transplantation.

Objective:To explore the mechanism of Honghua Xiaoyao Tablets in the treatment of premature ovarian failure (POF) using network pharmacology and molecular docking technology; To conduct further experimental verification.Methods:The active components and related targets of Honghua Xiaoyao Tablets were obtained using TCMSP and PubChem databases, and the related targets of POF were obtained by using GeneCards database. The Venn online tool was used to screen the intersection genes, and the STRING database was used to construct the PPI network. Then, GO function enrichment analysis and KEGG pathway enrichment analysis were performed on the intersecting genes through the Metescape database, and Cytoscape 3.7.1 software was used to construct the "active component-target" network and "Chinese materia medica-active component-target-key pathway-disease" network. Finally, molecular docking verification was carried out. Mice were divided into blank group, model group, and Honghua Xiaoyao Tablets group using a random number table method, with 8 mice in each group. Except for the blank group, mice in each group were treated with zona pellucida polypeptide 3 (ZP3) and Freund's Complete Adjuvant (FCA) to establish a mouse model of immune POF. Mice in the Honghua Xiaoyao Tablets group received Honghua Xiaoyao Tablets solution 0.56 g/kg for gavage, and the blank control group and the model group received saline for gavage for consecutive 4 weeks. The histopathological changes of the mouse ovary were observed by HE staining. Immunohistochemical staining was used to observe the expression of ESR1, and Western blot was used to detect the expressions of Akt and p-Akt.Results:A total of 80 intersection targets between Honghua Xiaoyao Tablets and POF were obtained, and the PPI network contained 44 core targets. The top 5 compounds in the topological analysis were formononetin, quercetin, Betulinic acid, Hydroxysafflor Yellow A and Baicalin, and the top 5 targets were PPARG, ESR1, AR, AKT1 and IL6. The molecular function of core genes was mainly receptor ligand activity, and its biological process mainly involved the positive regulation of cell migration. The cellular components mainly included membrane rafts, which were involved in signaling pathways such as cancer signaling pathway, proteoglycans in cancer, PI3K-Akt signaling pathway, and HIF-1 signaling pathway. "Chinese materia medica-component-target-pathway-disease" network showed that 8 kinds of Chinese materia medica in the Honghua Xiaoyao Tablets had important core components, among which Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma and Carthami Flos involved the most important core components. Molecular docking results showed that the active components had a good affinity with the core target. The experimental verification confirmed that Honghua Xiaoyao Tablets promoted follicular development, increased the expression of ESR1 in ovarian tissues and up-regulated the expression level of the key factor of Akt phosphorylation in the PI3K-Akt signaling pathway.Conclusions:The various active components of Honghua Xiaoyao Tablets may act on PPARG, ESR1 and other targets through multiple signaling pathways such as PI3K-Akt and HIF-1 to treat POF. The potential active components are mainly formononetin, quercetin, etc.

Objective·To investigate the relation between urinary excretion of protein-bound uremic toxins(PBUTs)and upper urinary tract calculus.Methods·Residents aged 18?80 years in the community of Haitou,Danzhou city in Hainan Province were recruited.Basic information and diet for the last 3 d of the subjects were recorded.Their fasting sera and 24-hour urine samples were collected,and they also underwent ultrasound examination of kidneys and ureters.The subjects with upper urinary calculi detected by ultrasound or a clear history of upper urinary calculi were selected as the calculus group,and the others as the non-calculus group.The biochemical indicators related to the formation of calculus in blood and urine were detected,and the levels of PBUTs,including indoxyl sufate(IS),indole-3-acetic acid(IAA),and p-cresol sulfate(PCS)in blood and urine,as well as oxalic acid and citric acid in urine were detected by high-performance liquid chromatography.The related factors of upper urinary tract calculus formation were analyzed by multivariate Logistic regression.The correlations of urine PBUTs with urine uric acid,oxalic acid,and citric acid were analyzed by Spearman correlation test.Results·A total of 117 participants were screened out with 54 people in the calculus group and 63 people in the non-calculus group.There were no significant differences between the two groups in terms of gender,age,serum indicators,and prevalence of complications such as hypertension,diabetes,and hyperuricemia/gout.The 24-hour urine pH,calcium,uric acid,and chlorine in the calculus group were significantly higher than those in the non-calculus group(all P<0.05),while IS was significantly lower than that in the non-calculus group(P<0.05).Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that urinary IS(OR=0.929,95%CI 0.875?0.986,P=0.016)was related to the calculus formation independently,in addition to urinary calcium.The Spearman correlation analysis results showed that the levels of IAA(r=0.420,P=0.000)and PCS(r=0.307,P=0.001)in 24-hour urine were positively correlated with oxalic acid,PCS was positively correlated with uric acid(r=0.297,P=0.002),and IS was positively correlated with citric acid(r=0.289,P=0.002).Conclusion·In the population,a decrease in urinary excretion of IS may be an independent risk factor for the formation of upper urinary tract calculus,and PBUTs levels are correlated with levels of uric acid,oxalic acid,and citric acid.

Objective:To compare the patient-reported outcomes and short-term clinical outcomes between robotic-assisted and laparoscopic-assisted radical gastrectomy for locally advanced gastric cancer.Methods:This single-center prospective randomized controlled trial was conducted in the Department of Gastrointestinal Surgery, Affiliated Hospital of Qingdao University from October 2020 to August 2022. Patients with locally advanced gastric cancer who were to undergo radical gastrectomy were selected and randomly divided into two groups according to 1∶1, and received robotic surgery and laparoscopic surgery, respectively. Patient-reported outcomes and short-term clinical outcomes (including postoperative complications, surgical quality and postoperative short-term recovery) were compared between the two groups by independent sample t test, Mann-Whitney U test, repeated ANOVA, generalized estimating equation, χ2 test and Fisher′s exact test. Results:A total of 237 patients were enrolled for modified intention-to-treat analysis (120 patients in the robotic group, 117 patients in the laparoscopic group). There were 180 males and 59 females, aged (63.0±10.2) years (range: 30 to 85 years). The incidence of postoperative complications was similar between the robotic group and laparoscopic group (16.7% (20/120) vs. 15.4% (18/117), χ2=0.072, P=0.788). The robotic group had higher patient-reported outcomes scores in general health status, emotional, and social domains compared to the laparoscopic group, differences in time effect, intervention effect, and interaction effect were statistically significant (general health status: χ2 value were 275.68, 3.91, 6.38, P value were <0.01, 0.048, 0.041; emotional: χ2 value were 77.79, 6.04, 6.15, P value were <0.01, 0.014, 0.046; social: χ2 value were 148.00, 7.57, 5.98, P value were <0.01, 0.006, 0.048). However, the financial burden of the robotic group was higher, the differences in time effect, intervention effect and interaction effect were statistically significant ( χ2 value were 156.24, 4.08, 36.56, P value were <0.01, 0.043,<0.01). Conclusion:Compared to the laparoscopic group, the robotic group could more effectively relieve postoperative negative emotions and improve recovery of social function in patients.

Objective·To analyze the progression of children with severe coronary artery lesions due to Kawasaki disease by coronary artery angiography,and evaluate the diagnostic value of echocardiography in these children.Methods·A retrospective analysis was performed to enroll children with Kawasaki disease whose coronary artery lesions were graded Ⅳ or above from Shanghai Children's Medical Center,Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine,from January 2013 to January 2023.The subjects were required to have received at least 2 times of coronary angiogram,and their clinical and imaging data were collected to analyze the progression of the lesions.Echocardiography results were compared with the results of the coronary angiogram.Results·A total of 21 children were included,including 15 males and 6 females,with a median age at onset of 3 years and 6 months,a median age at initial coronary angiography of 7 years and 11 months,a median interval of 4 years and 5 months between the time of onset and initial angiography,a median age at angiographic review of 9 years and 2 months,and a median interval of 1 year and 3 months between the time of initial angiography and review.Coronary stenosis or occlusion was detected in 13 children in the initial angiography,of whom 6 underwent coronary artery bypass grafting(CABG)and had their angiography reviews 1 year later.The review results showed that the bridging vessels were unobstructed and no obvious stenosis was observed.Fifteen children had progression of the lesions detected by echocardiography in the subsequent follow-up and had their angiogram reviews,of whom 8 had significant progression of the coronary lesions.Intracoronary balloon dilatation was performed in 1 case,and CABG was performed in another case.Sixteen lesions of coronary stenosis or occlusion were detected in the initial angiography in 21 children,while only 1 lesion of coronary stenosis was detected by echocardiography during the same period of time.Twenty-eight medium-to large-sized coronary aneurysms were detected in the initial angiography in the 21 children,and the diameters of the 28 aneurysms measured by echocardiography and coronary angiogram were subjected to the Bland-Altman analysis.The Bland-Altman analysis showed that the difference in maximum diameter between 2 methods was(1.63±2.33)mm,with 95％CI of-2.95-6.21 mm.Conclusion·Coronary artery lesions due to Kawasaki disease may be progressive;in the children with severe lesions,coronary artery stenosis or occlusion may be missed or misdiagnosed and some errors may exist in the measurement of diameters of aneurysms by echocardiography.Regular review of coronary angiography is needed.

Objective To evaluate the current situation of radioactive contamination in the soil around a decommissioned uranium mine by combined determination of ²¹⁰Pb and ²¹⁰Po activity concentrations. Methods Soil samples were collected around a decommissioned uranium mine. ²¹⁰Po and the ²¹⁰Pb decay product ²¹⁰Bi were plated on a copper sheet by self-deposition at a constant temperature. Gross α and gross β counts were measured using a low-background α/β counter. The activity concentrations of ²¹⁰Pb and ²¹⁰Po in soil were calculated. The radioactive contamination was evaluated using geological accumulation index. Results The activity concentrations of ²¹⁰Pb and ²¹⁰Po in the soil around the decommissioned uranium mine were 873.7-2315.5 and 956.0-2315 Bq·kg⁻¹, respectively. The activity concentrations of ²¹⁰Pb and ²¹⁰Po in nearby farmland soil were 54.2-257.8 and 59.1-234.5 Bq·kg⁻¹, respectively. Evaluation with the geological accumulation index showed that the level of nearby farmland contamination was 0-2, indicating zero to moderate radioactive contamination of the farmland. Conclusion The relatively high radioactivity around the decommissioned uranium mine requires attention to the transfer, diffusion, and ingestion of the uranium decay products ²¹⁰Pb and ²¹⁰Po in the surrounding soil to avoid radioactive contamination of the environment.

Objective:To discuss outcomes of emergency repairing for Gustilo III B and III C fractures of forearm with complicated tissue defects and the related influence factors.Methods:From January 2014 to Feburary 2022, data of 98 cases of Gustilo III B and III C fractures with large compound defects of soft tissue, blood vessel, bone, tendon or muscle from elbow to wrist were collected. Primary debridement, bone fixation, wound coverage by free flap, bone transfer(or bone cement filling) or dynamic reconstruction of muscle were completed with emergency surgery in Department of Hand and Foot Microsurgery, Xi'an Fengcheng Hospital. Postoperative follow-ups were conducted through outpatient clinic visits, telephone and WeChat reviews. Video clips, questionnaires and the latest information of patients were also analysed. Rank sum test and Chi-square test were used to examine the relationship between independent variables such as general condition, disease condition and surgical procedures of chimeric tissue transfer group and simple flap transfer group, together with dependent variables such as limb salvage, number of surgery, wound healing, function scores, and complications. P<0.05 were further included in the regression equation to discover the relationship between multiple independent variables and dependent variables. Results:Follow-up lasted for 6-96 months, with an average of 71.1 months. In the chimeric group, the limb salvage rate was at 95.1%, with an infection rate of 8.50% and an average number of surgery was 2.13±0.89. In the simple flap transfer group, the limb salvage rate was at 87.5%, with an infection rate of 15.38% and an average number of surgery was 2.62±0.64. The good rate of Anderson score was 65.3% and the average score of Disability of the Arm, Shoulder and Hand(DASH) was 32.9(0-60) points for all the patients. There were significant differences in dependent variables of limb salvage and infection rate between the 2 groups ( P<0.05). Ischemia time and method of bone fixation led to significant differences in number of surgery ( P<0.05). Methods of bone fixation and the types of flap made significant differences in wound healing ( P<0.05). Underlying disease, bonedefect, Gustilo classification and method of bone fixation all contributed to the significant differences in function score ( P<0.05 or P<0.01) . Conclusion:Emergency surgery for repair of serious injury of forearm has a relatively high limb salvage rate and good functional effects. The limb salvage rate is not correlated with independent variables such as severity of injury, Mangledextremity Severity Score (MESS) and ischemia time, while transfer of a simple flap or a chimeric flap is significantly correlated with the limb salvage rate, infection and wound healing. The severity of injury, ischemia time and bone defect are correlated with functional assessment, number of surgery and bone healing.
