		                        			[Objective] To compare the clinical efficacy of super pulse thulium laser enucleation of the prostate (SPThuLEP) with "open tunnel" and transurethral holmium laser enucleation of the prostate (HoLEP) in the treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), in order to provide reference for the treatment options of BPH. [Methods] The clinical data of 112 BPH patients treated in our hospital during Jan.2023 and Jul.2023 were retrospectively analyzed, including 65 treated with SPThuLEP with "open tunnel" and 57 with HoLEP.The operation time, postoperative hemoglobin decrease, postoperative bladder irrigation, catheter indwelling time, hospitalization time and complications were compared between the two groups.The changes of maximum urine flow rate (Qmax), international prostate symptom score (IPSS), quality of life score (QoL), postvoid residual (PVR) and prostate-specific antigen (PSA) were compared between the two groups before operation and one month after operation. [Results] All operations were successful without conversion to open or transurethral plasmakinetic resection.The postoperative decrease of hemoglobin in SPThuLEP group was lower than that in HoLEP group [(13.12±6.72) g/L vs. (21.02±6.51) g/L], with statistical difference (P<0.05). There were no significant differences in the operation time [(63.35±15.73) min vs.(61.02±17.55) min], postoperative bladder irrigation time [(1.07±0.45) d vs. (1.06±0.36) d], catheter indwelling time [(2.98±0.56) d vs. (3.01±0.63) d] and hospitalization time [(3.63±0.61) d vs.(3.79±0.76) d] between the two groups (P>0.05). No blood transfusion, secondary bleeding or unplanned hospitalization occurred, and there were no serious complications such as transurethral electroresection syndrome (TURS), urethral stricture and urinary incontinence.One month after operation, the Qmax, IPSS, QoL, PVR and PSA of the two groups were significantly improved compared with those before operation (P<0.05), but with no statistical difference between the two groups (P>0.05). [Conclusion] SPThuLEP with "open tunnel" has comparable efficacy as HoLEP in the treatment of BPH.With advantages of small amount of bleeding and high safety, this minimally invasive technique can be widely popularized in clinical practice.

		                        			With the widespread adoption of low-dose CT screening and the extensive application of high-resolution CT, the detection rate of sub-centimeter lung nodules has significantly increased. How to scientifically manage these nodules while avoiding overtreatment and diagnostic delays has become an important clinical issue. Among them, lung nodules with a consolidation tumor ratio less than 0.25, dominated by ground-glass shadows, are particularly worthy of attention. The therapeutic challenge for this group is how to achieve precise and complete resection of nodules during surgery while maximizing the preservation of the patient's lung function. The "watershed topography map" is a new technology based on big data and artificial intelligence algorithms. This method uses Dicom data from conventional dose CT scans, combined with microscopic (22-24 levels) capillary network anatomical watershed features, to generate high-precision simulated natural segmentation planes of lung sub-segments through specific textures and forms. This technology forms fluorescent watershed boundaries on the lung surface, which highly fit the actual lung anatomical structure. By analyzing the adjacent relationship between the nodule and the watershed boundary, real-time, visually accurate positioning of the nodule can be achieved. This innovative technology provides a new solution for the intraoperative positioning and resection of lung nodules. This consensus was led by four major domestic societies, jointly with expert teams in related fields, oriented to clinical practical needs, referring to domestic and foreign guidelines and consensus, and finally formed after multiple rounds of consultation, discussion, and voting. The main content covers the theoretical basis of the "watershed topography map" technology, indications, operation procedures, surgical planning details, and postoperative evaluation standards, aiming to provide scientific guidance and exploration directions for clinical peers who are currently or plan to carry out lung nodule resection using the fluorescent microscope watershed analysis method.

		                        			Coronary restenosis is an important cause of poor long-term prognosis in patients with coronary heart disease. Here, we show that lysine methyltransferase SMYD2 expression in the nucleus is significantly elevated in serum- and PDGF-BB-induced vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs), and in tissues of carotid artery injury-induced neointimal hyperplasia. Smyd2 overexpression in VSMCs (Smyd2-vTg) facilitates, but treatment with its specific inhibitor LLY-507 or SMYD2 knockdown significantly inhibits VSMC phenotypic switching and carotid artery injury-induced neointima formation in mice. Transcriptome sequencing revealed that SMYD2 knockdown represses the expression of serum response factor (SRF) target genes and that SRF overexpression largely reverses the inhibitory effect of SMYD2 knockdown on VSMC proliferation. HDAC3 directly interacts with and deacetylates SRF, which enhances SRF transcriptional activity in VSMCs. Moreover, SMYD2 promotes HDAC3 expression via tri-methylation of H3K36 at its promoter. RGFP966, a specific inhibitor of HDAC3, not only counteracts the pro-proliferation effect of SMYD2 overexpression on VSMCs, but also inhibits carotid artery injury-induced neointima formation in mice. HDAC3 partially abolishes the inhibitory effect of SMYD2 knockdown on VSMC proliferation in a deacetylase activity-dependent manner. Our results reveal that the SMYD2-HDAC3-SRF axis constitutes a novel and critical epigenetic mechanism that regulates VSMC phenotypic switching and neointimal hyperplasia.

		                        			Ankylosing spondylitis (AS) combined with lower cervical fracture is often categorized into unstable fracture, with a high incidence of neurological injury and a high rate of disability and morbidity. As factors such as shoulder occlusion may affect the accuracy of X-ray imaging diagnosis, it is often easily misdiagnosed at the primary diagnosis. Non-operative treatment has complications such as bone nonunion and the possibility of secondary neurological damage, while the timing, access and choice of surgical treatment are still controversial. Currently, there are no clinical practice guidelines for the treatment of AS combined with lower cervical fracture with or without dislocation. To this end, the Spinal Trauma Group of Orthopedics Branch of Chinese Medical Doctor Association organized experts to formulate Clinical guidelines for the treatment of ankylosing spondylitis combined with lower cervical fracture in adults ( version 2024) in accordance with the principles of evidence-based medicine, scientificity and practicality, in which 11 recommendations were put forward in terms of the diagnosis, imaging evaluation, typing and treatment, etc, to provide guidance for the diagnosis and treatment of AS combined with lower cervical fracture.

		                        			Objective:To investigate the clinicopathological features and differential diagnosis of eosinophilic vacuolated tumor (EVT).Methods:Seven cases of EVT with characteristic morphology and unequivocal diagnosis from the Affiliated Hospital of Qingdao University (6 cases), Qingdao, China and the 971 Hospital of PLA Navy (1 case), Qingdao, China between January 2010 and December 2021 were subject to morphological and immunohistochemical analyses. Additionally, whole exome sequencing (WES) was performed in two cases. Twenty-two cases of renal oncocytoma (RO) and 17 cases of eosinophilic chromophobe renal cell carcinoma (eChRCC) diagnosed at the same time were used as controls.Results:Four males and three females with a mean age of 42 years (range: 29-61 years) were included in the study. The tumors were nodular and well-circumscribed, with sizes ranging from 1.5 to 4.5 cm. On cross-section, they appeared gray-red or gray-white, solid, and soft. Tumor cells were arranged in nests, solid sheets, and acinar or small vesicular structures. These cells exhibited eosinophilic cytoplasm with large, prominent clear vacuoles and round nuclei with prominent nucleoli. Perinuclear halos were focally present in four cases, while small tumor cells with sparse cytoplasm and hyperchromatic nuclei were seen in one case. No necrosis or mitosis was noted. Edematous stroma was detected in three cases. All tumors were positive for CD117 and Cathepsin K, but negative for vimentin and CK7. CK20 was positive in scattered individual cells, and Ki-67 positivity ranged from 1% to 4%. Point mutations in MTOR were identified in both patients who were subject to the molecular analysis. Statistical differences in the expression of Cathepsin K, CD10, S-100A1, and Cyclin D1 between EVT and RO ( P<0.05) were significant, so were the differences in the expression of Cathepsin K, CD10, CK7 and claudin 7 between EVT and eChRCC ( P<0.001). Seven patients were followed up for 4 to 96 months (mean, 50 months), with no recurrences or metastases. Conclusions:EVT is a rare renal tumor that shares morphological and immunophenotypic features with RO and eChRCC, and it is closely linked to the TSC/MTOR pathway. The presence of large prominent transparent vacuoles in eosinophilic cytoplasm along with conspicuous nucleoli is its key morphological characteristics. The use of combined immunohistochemical stains greatly aids in its diagnosis. Typically, the tumor exhibits indolent biological behaviors with a favorable prognosis.

		                        			ObjectiveTo construct a quantitative prediction model of three indicators(moisture absorption rate, film thickness and coating weight gain) during the coating process of Vitamin C Yinqiao tablets(VCYT) by near-infrared spectroscopy(NIRS), and to realize the endpoint judgment. MethodReal-time NIRS data of 4 batches of VCYT during the coating process were collected by diffuse reflection method. The coating method employed was the rolling coating method, and the samples were obtained at the spray stage from the coater's sampling port every 10 minutes, and 57 batches of samples(about 1 800 tablets) were collected at various coating times, the tablets were embedded in molten paraffin, cut longitudinally, and observed by stereomicroscope. The film thickness, with a target value of 38 μm, was then measured using Motic Images Advanced 3.2 software. Furthermore, the mositure absorption rate of samples, aiming for a target value of 3%, was determined in accordance with guiding principles for drug hygroscopicity testing in the 2020 edition of Chinese Pharmacopoeia, and 3 samples were randomly selected from each batch(10 tablets per batch), and the coating weight gain was calculated(target value of 4%). Partial least squares regression(PLSR) was used to construct a quantitative model of the 3 coating indicators, and the predicted values of the coating indicators were smoothed using the moving average method and used to determine the coating endpoints. ResultThe prediction determination coefficients(Rp2) for moisture absorption rate, film thickness and coating weight gain were 0.933 4, 0.932 6 and 0.965 9, the root mean square errors of prediction(RMSEP) were 0.163 5%, 1.870 9 μm and 0.240 3%, the relative percent deviations(RPD) were 3.711 0, 2.760 7 and 5.415 8, respectively. The results of the external validation set demonstrated that the real-time predicted values obtained by the models exhibited the same trend as the measured values, and the coating endpoint could be accurately predicted(with a prediction error of less than 7.32 min and a relative error of less than 5.63%). ConclusionThe established NIRS model exhibits excellent predictive performance and can be used for quality control of VCYT during the coating process.

		                        			Glioblastoma (GBM), one of the most common malignant tumors in the central nervous system (CNS), is characterized by diffuse and invasive growth as well as resistance to various combination therapies. GBM is the most prevalent type with the highest degree of malignancy and the worst prognosis. While current clinical treatments include surgical resection, radiotherapy, temozolomide chemotherapy, novel molecular targeted therapy, and immunotherapy, the median survival time of GBM patients is only about one year. Radiotherapy is one of the important treatment modalities for GBM, which relies on ionizing radiation to eradicate tumor cells. Approximately 60% to 70% of patients need to receive radiotherapy as postoperative radiotherapy or neoadjuvant radiotherapy during the treatment process. However, during radiotherapy, the radioresistant effect caused by DNA repair activation and cell apoptosis inhibition impedes the therapeutic effect of malignant glioblastoma.Ferroptosis was first proposed by Dr. Brent R. Stockwell in 2012. It is an iron-dependent mode of cell death induced by excessive lipid peroxidation. Although the application of ferroptosis in tumor therapy is still in the exploratory stage, it provides a completely new idea for tumor therapy as a novel form of cell death. Ferroptosis has played a significant role in the treatment of GBM. Specifically, research has revealed the key processes of ferroptosis occurrence, including intracellular iron accumulation, reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation, lipid peroxidation, and a decrease in the activity of the antioxidant system. Among them, glutathione peroxidase 4(GPX4) in the cytoplasm and mitochondria, ferroptosis suppressor protein 1 (FSP1) on the plasma membrane, and dihydroorotate dehydrogenase (DHODH) in the mitochondria constitute an antioxidant protection system against ferroptosis. In iron metabolism, nuclear receptor coactivator 4 (NCOA4) can mediate ferritin autophagy to regulate intracellular iron balance based on intracellular iron content. Heme oxygenase1 (HMOX1) catalyzes heme degradation to release iron and regulate ferroptosis. Radiation can trigger ferroptosis by generating ROS, inhibiting the signaling axis of the antioxidant system, depleting glutathione, upregulating acyl-CoA synthase long chain family member 4 (ACSL4), and inducing autophagy. Interestingly, some articles has documented that exposure to low doses of radiation (6 Gy for 24 h or 8 Gy for 4-12 h) can induce the expression of SLC7A11 and GPX4 in breast cancer and lung cancer cells, leading to radiation resistance, while radiation-induced ferroptosis occurs after 48 h. In contrast, high doses of ionizing radiation (20 Gy and 50 Gy) increase lipid peroxidation after 24 h. This suggests that radiation-induced oxidative stress is a double-edged sword that can regulate ferroptosis in both directions, and the ultimate fate of cells after radiation exposure——developing resistance and achieving homeostasis or undergoing ferroptosis——depends on the degree and duration of membrane lipid damage caused by the radiation dose. In addition, during the process of radiotherapy, methods such as inducing iron overload, damaging the antioxidant system, and disrupting mitochondrial function are used to target ferroptosis, thereby enhancing the radiosensitivity of glioblastoma. By promoting the occurrence of ferroptosis in tumor cells as a strategy to improve radiotherapy sensitivity, we can enhance the killing effect of ionizing radiation on tumor cells, thus providing more treatment options for patients with glioblastoma. In this paper, we reviewed ferroptosis and its mechanism, analyzed the molecular mechanism of radiation-induced ferroptosis, and discussed the effective strategies to regulate ferroptosis in enhancing the sensitivity of radiotherapy, with a view to providing an important reference value for improving the current status of glioblastoma treatment.
