OBJECTIVE To establish a method for determining the content of 11 antioxidants and their degradation products in recombinant Exendin-4-FC fusion protein injection by HPLC. METHODS The protein was precipitated with saturated ammonium sulfate. After centrifugation, the supernatant was transferred to a C18 solid phase extraction cartridge activated by methanol. Then the cartridge was eluted with 4 mL of methanol and 5 mL of ethyl acetate respectively, and the eluent was diluted with methanol-ethyl acetate(2∶3) mixed solvent and passed through a 0.22 µm PTFE hydrophobic filter. It was analyzed by HPLC and quantified by external standard method. Chromatographic conditions: Kinetex® XB-C18 100Å (100 mm×4.6 mm, 2.6 µm)column, the detection wavelength was 230 nm, the column oven was 30 ℃, the injection volume was 5 µL and the flow rate was 0.4 mL·min–1, mobile phase was 0.1% formic acid-methanol(A)-0.1% formic acid aqueous solution(B), the running time was 45 min. RESULTS The 11 target substances showed a good linear relationship in the range of 2.5−35 μg·mL–1 with R2 ≥0.99. At three different concentration(25, 10, 5 μg·mL–1) of spiked samples, the average recovery rates of 11 antioxidants ranged from 88.1% to 106.5%, with RSDs in the range of 0.10%–9.05%. The RSDs of 6 repeatable samples was 2.01%–4.77%, which of 12 intermediate precision samples was 2.58%–9.75%. The positive/inverted samples of three batches of recombinant Exendin-4-FC fusion protein injection were detected at 0 month, 3 months and 6 months(25 ℃), and the results showed that there was no antioxidant and its degradation leaching in all batches of samples at different detection points. CONCLUSION The method has good specificity, high accuracy and precision, good solution stability, high durability and can be used for the content detection of antioxidants in drugs.

Objective To investigate the efficacy and complications of one-step and two-step ultrasound-guided percutaneous transhepatic hepatic duct drainage(PTHD)in the treatment of advanced low-level biliary obstruction.Methods A total of 112 patients with advanced low-level biliary obstruction who underwent palliative surgery for reducing jaundice in the hospital from January 2019 to July 2023 were selected,and divided into the one-step group and the two-step group according to the principle of complete randomization(grouped by random number table method).The one-step group(n=56)underwent one-step PTHD,while the two-step group(n=56)underwent two-step PTHD.Surgery related indicators,serum total bilirubin(TBIL),alkaline phosphatase(ALP),alanine transaminase(ALT),the incidence of postoperative complications,and satisfaction were compared between the two groups.Results There was no difference in intraoperative blood loss[(2.96±0.50)ml vs.(3.02±0.53)ml],drainage volume in 48 hours after surgery[(555.84±90.51)ml vs.(560.52±104.23)ml]between the two groups(P＞0.05).Operation time and postoperative VAS score of the one-step group were significantly shorter/lower than those of the two-step group[(32.50±4.26)min vs.(36.43±3.58)min,(3.72±1.57)points vs.(4.53±1.34)points],and the success rate of puncture was significantly higher than that in the two-step group(96.43％vs.76.69％),with statistically significant differences(P＜0.05).After treatment,the levels of TBIL,ALP and ALT in the two groups were significantly reduced(P＜0.05),but there was no statistically significant difference between the groups(P＞0.05).There was no statistically significant difference in the incidence of complications between the two groups(3.57％vs.7.14％,Fisher's exact probability=0.679).The satisfaction rate in the one-step group was significantly higher than that in the two-step group(94.64％vs.75.00％),with a statistically significant difference(P＜0.05).ConclusionThe operation time of one-step PTHD is shorter and the success rate of puncture is higher.In addition,patients undergoing one-step PTHD have milder pain,and are more satisfied.

Magnetic resonance (MR) imaging is an important tool for prostate cancer diagnosis, and accurate segmentation of MR prostate regions by computer-aided diagnostic techniques is important for the diagnosis of prostate cancer. In this paper, we propose an improved end-to-end three-dimensional image segmentation network using a deep learning approach to the traditional V-Net network (V-Net) network in order to provide more accurate image segmentation results. Firstly, we fused the soft attention mechanism into the traditional V-Net's jump connection, and combined short jump connection and small convolutional kernel to further improve the network segmentation accuracy. Then the prostate region was segmented using the Prostate MR Image Segmentation 2012 (PROMISE 12) challenge dataset, and the model was evaluated using the dice similarity coefficient (DSC) and Hausdorff distance (HD). The DSC and HD values of the segmented model could reach 0.903 and 3.912 mm, respectively. The experimental results show that the algorithm in this paper can provide more accurate three-dimensional segmentation results, which can accurately and efficiently segment prostate MR images and provide a reliable basis for clinical diagnosis and treatment.

The basic pathological change of diabetic macroangiopathy is atherosclerosis （AS）， which is mainly associated with vascular endothelial cells （VECs） injury， oxidative stress， glucose and lipid metabolism disorders， hemorheological abnormalities， and endoplasmic reticulum stress. The injury and dysfunction of VECs are the initiating factors of diabetic macroangiopathy. Autophagy is a subcellular self-protection mechanism that regulates basic intracellular metabolism through lysosome-mediated degradation of proteins and damaged organelles to maintain homeostasis. Insufficient autophagy of VECs leads to enhanced inflammation， apoptosis， and oxidative stress of VECs， which promotes AS. According to the theory of traditional Chinese medicine （TCM）， diabetic macroangiopathy corresponds to the syndrome of internal deficiency and pathogen invasion， with Qi deficiency and stagnation as the key pathogenesis. Qi deficiency is the root cause， and Qi stagnation is the manifestation. The disease occurs with the initial cause of nutrient-defense disharmony and instability of vessels， the main cause of the deficiency of kidney Qi and the lack of source for generation and transformation， the internal cause of Qi and blood loss in the viscera and the stagnation of Qi， blood， and fluid， and the superficial cause of the stagnation of pathological products and the damage of vessels. Autophagy is a microscopic manifestation of Qi， which has the function of dispelling pathogens and maintaining homeostasis. Insufficient autophagy of VECs leads to Qi deficiency and stagnation， and the gradual deficiency and heavy stagnation of Qi lead to insufficient autophagy， which form a vicious cycle. Modern research has demonstrated that regulating the autophagy of VECs is the main way to prevent and treat AS， and TCM can exert the therapeutic effect in a multi-target and multi-pathway manner. Therefore， based on the theory of Qi deficiency and stagnation， the method of tonifying deficiency of and removing stagnation can be adopted to select prescriptions for regulating the autophagy of VECs and treating AS， which can slow down the procession of diabetic macroangiopathy.

Bone defects caused by different causes such as trauma, severe bone infection and other factors are common in clinic and difficult to treat. Usually, bone substitutes are required for repair. Current bone grafting materials used clinically include autologous bones, allogeneic bones, xenografts, and synthetic materials, etc. Other than autologous bones, the major hurdles of rest bone grafts have various degrees of poor biological activity and lack of active ingredients to provide osteogenic impetus. Bone marrow contains various components such as stem cells and bioactive factors, which are contributive to osteogenesis. In response, the technique of bone marrow enrichment, based on the efficient utilization of components within bone marrow, has been risen, aiming to extract osteogenic cells and factors from bone marrow of patients and incorporate them into 3D scaffolds for fabricating bone grafts with high osteoinductivity. However, the scientific guidance and application specification are lacked with regard to the clinical scope, approach, safety and effectiveness. In this context, under the organization of Chinese Orthopedic Association, the Expert consensus for the clinical application of autologous bone marrow enrichment technique for bone repair ( version 2023) is formulated based on the evidence-based medicine. The consensus covers the topics of the characteristics, range of application, safety and application notes of the technique of autologous bone marrow enrichment and proposes corresponding recommendations, hoping to provide better guidance for clinical practice of the technique.

The basic pathological change of diabetic macroangiopathy is atherosclerosis， and the metabolism legacy effect of hyperglycemia will cause continuous damage to the large vessels. Oxidative stress is a common mechanism for diabetes and its chronic complications and it is also the basis of the metabolism legacy effect which keeps damaging the large vessels. Anti-oxidant therapy can delay the course of diabetic macroangiopathy. According to the theory of traditional Chinese medicine （TCM）， the pathogenicity of hidden pathogen is concealing， lingering， and refractory. On the basis of the syndrome and treatment of collateral diseases， vessel-collateral theory， and hidden pathogen theory of TCM， the pathological changes of diabetic macroangiopathy are summarized as pathogen concealment-accumulation of sugar and lipids leading to phlegm and blood stasis-accumulation of toxins-damage to vessels and collaterals-hardening vessels. The core pathogenesis is the hidden pathogen damaging the collaterals， and the basic pathological change is vessel hardening. The toxins of sugar， lipid， phlegm， and stasis are the pathological products and the key to be treated. According to this theory， the medicinal materials with the functions of activating blood to dredging collaterals， resolving phlegm to clearing collaterals， Promoting qi to unblocking collaterals and removing toxins to shunting collaterals can be selected for prescription. These medicinal materials can inhibit the generation of reactive oxygen species， affect the oxidase activity， and enhance the antioxidant capacity， thereby regulating the oxidative stress response， protecting the vascular endothelial function， reducing the damage of the large blood vessels， and slowing down the progression of the disease. Such therapy is of great significance in clinical practice and research， providing a new idea for the prevention and treatment of diabetic macroangiopathy.

Objective:To compare the clinical outcomes of treatment using non-selective versus highly selective partial splenic embolization in patients with hypersplenism secondary to liver cirrhosis.Methods:The clinical data of patients with hypersplenism secondary to hepatitis B cirrhosis who underwent splenic embolization at the Department of Hepatobiliary and Pancreatic Surgery of Leshan People's Hospital from July 2017 to July 2020 were analyzed retrospectively. Of 65 patients with hypersplenism, there were 42 males and 23 females, with age of (58.5±9.8) years. Twenty-six patients underwent splenic artery non-selective partial splenic embolization (the non-selective group) and 39 patients underwent partial splenic embolization using highly selective intubation (the highly selective group). The postoperative peripheral hematological indexes, liver function, operation-related complications and portal vein color Doppler ultrasonography were compared between the two groups.Results:The white blood cell count and platelet count of patients in the 2 groups were significantly higher than those before operation. The white blood cell count at 4, 12 and 24 weeks after operation and the platelet count at 12 and 24 weeks after operation in the highly selective group were significantly higher than those in the non-selective group ( P<0.05). Compared with the non-selective group, the total bilirubin, ICG-R15, portal vein diameter and portal vein blood flow in the highly-selective group significantly lower ( P<0.05). The incidences of 0/Ⅰ/Ⅱ/Ⅲ pain in the non-selected group was significantly higher when compared with that in the highly selected group (5/10/11/1 vs. 12/22/7/0), ( P<0.05). There were no significant differences in the incidences of postoperative complication between the two groups ( P>0.05). Conclusion:Compared with non-selective partial splenic embolization, highly selective partial splenic embolization gave more stable and lasting treatment outcomes in patients with hypersplenism caused by liver cirrhosis with better recovery of blood-related indicators, better improvement in postoperative liver function and relief of portal hypertension symptoms.

The evaluation of disease perception, treatment compliance and community follow-up services were investigated and analyzed. Respondents were eventually included in 137 patients, 138 family members and 41 personnel.The interviewees were conducted with semi-structured interviews, the data were collected according to traditional methods, and the descriptive statistical analysis was carried out with SPSS 12.0.Results:(1)34.3% of patients and 32.6% of the family members were not fully aware of the disease.22.6% of the patients and 23.2% of the family members had a sense of ill shame. (2)26.3% of patients did not comply with treatment, 29.9% of patients had not insight, 53.3% of patients and 24.6% of family members on the side effects of drugs and addiction understood improperly, and, 35.0% of patients and 13.0% of the family had a misunderstanding of illness and using drugs. (3)29.2% of patients and 31.2% of their families were tired of taking long-term medication, 24.8% of patients and 21.0% of their families felt socially isolated, and, 17.5% felt unsupported and 18.8% of their families admitted that they did not care enough about patients. (4)31.4% of patients did not actively receive follow-up services, 37.2% of patients and 20.3% of family members did not cooperate with follow-up doctors, and, 21.2% of patients and 10.1% of family members were not satisfied with follow-up services. (5)The personnel of psychiatric care could basically grasp the conditions of patients in the jurisdiction and carried out follow-up services on a regular basis (90.2%), master emergency disposal methods (92.7%), and have carried out training (97.6%). However, the psychiatric practice of the personnel were lower than (58.5%) and most lying part-time (78.0%), the average length of service was 5.7±1.4 years. The personnel satisfaction with the community follow-up service was higher (95.1%), but most of them thought that the psychiatric care was more difficult (36.6%), and were dissatisfied with the multi-functional staff to undertake a number of public services (31.7%).Conclusion:The management treatment project of mental disorders services in Shantou City show initial results.The patients were satisfied with the community follow-up service, but the patients and their families still have low level of cognition, poor compliance, obvious negative emotions, and have concerns about drug treatment.It is necessary to strengthen the professionalization of personnel, to carry out early mental health education and rational emotional behavior training for patients and their families.

Objective: To study the safety and effectiveness of infra-hepatic inferior vena cava clamping combined with Pringle’s maneuver during hepatectomy. Methods: The databases of PubMed, Cochrane Center, CNKI, VIP, Wan Fang were searched to extract the relevant data for the meta-analysis using the Revmanage 5.3 software. Results: A total of 14 studies with 1595 patients were included in this meta-analysis. The results showed that total bleeding during the combined clamping was significantly lower than that of the Pringle’s maneuver alone (MD=-314.59, 95%CI: -362.37~-266.81, P<0.05). Bleeding during hepatectomy was significantly lower (MD=-217.79, 95% CI: -284.57~-151.00, P<0.05); so was the intraoperative blood transfusion rate (OR=0.48, 95% CI: 0.36~0.62, P<0.05). The incidence of complications was significantly lower (OR=0.74, 95% CI: 0.57~0.95, P<0.05). However, there were no significant differences in operation time, length of hospital stay, intraoperative monitoring index and postoperative liver and kidney function recovery (P>0.05). Conclusions Infra-hepatic inferior vena cava clamping combined with Pringle’s maneuver in hepatectomy was safe and reliable. Compared with the Pringle’s maneuver alone, the combined technique reduce bleeding and the incidence of complications. This technique is worth promoting in clinical practice.
