Objective: To explore the effect of the "internet + health education system" in nursing care after stapler circumcision.
Methods: A total of 260 patients underwent stapler circumcision in the Outpatient Department of our hospital from January 2022 to July 2022, of whom 130 received routine nursing after operation (the control group), and the other 130 internet + medical nursing service based on the internet + health education system (the experimental group). We followed up the patients on the 1st, 3rd, 7th and 30th day after surgery, recorded their Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) scores within 24 hours postoperatively, their satisfaction scores with surgery and nursing, the incidence of complications and falloff of the stapler nails, and compared them between the two groups.
Objective: To evaluate the efficiency of the four domestic language models, ERNIE Bot, ChatGLM2, Spark Desk and Qwen-14B-Chat, all with a massive user base and significant social attention, in response to consultations about PCa-related perioperative nursing and health education.
Methods: We designed a questionnaire that includes 15 questions commonly concerned by patients undergoing radical prostatectomy and 2 common nursing cases, and inputted the questions into each of the four language models for simulation consultation. Three nursing experts assessed the model responses based on a pre-designed Likert 5-point scale in terms of accuracy, comprehensiveness, understandability, humanistic care, and case analysis.

Background: Insulin-like growth factor 2 mRNA-binding protein 2 (IGF2BP2) has been confirmed to play oncogenic role in many cancers. However, the role and mechanism of IGF2BP2 in bladder cancer (BCa) still deserves to be further revealed.
Methods: The mRNA and protein levels of IGF2BP2 and neuronilin-1 (NRP1) were detected by real-time quantitative PCR (RT-qPCR) and western blot.
Solitary fibrous tumor (SFT) is a rare mesenchymal tumor, probably of fibroblastic origin, mainly in the extremities and pleura. Primary SFT of the adrenal gland is clinically more rare. Here, we report the case of a 47-year-old woman who detected a left adrenal mass on physical examination, without any symptoms, and no laboratory abnormalities.

Solute carrier family 11 member1 (SLC11A1) is a phagosomal membrane protein located in monocytes and plays a role in innate immunity, autoimmune diseases, and infection, but its expression and biological role in KIRC is still unknown. In this study, we sought to investigate the potential value of SLC11A1 according to tumor growth and immune response in KIRC.

Methods: The clinical data of 38 patients with super-high-risk prostate who underwent transurethral surgery in our hospital from April 2016 to December 2017 were retrospectively analyzed. All patients had obvious progressive dysuria.

Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) commonly occurs in middle-aged and elderly men, affecting their physical health while also triggering varying degrees of stigma. This leads to reduced treatment compliance and a lower quality of life for patients. This article elaborates on the conceptual development of stigma, the current state of stigma in BPH patients, sources and impacts of stigma, tools for investigating stigma, and intervention measures.

Methods: Clinical data of patients who underwent "scarless" circumcision at the Eastern Theater Command General Hospital from April 2022 to March 2023 were collected, with patients who underwent conventional circumcision (single-use stapler method) during the same period serving as the control group. The two groups were compared in terms of operation time, postoperative recovery time, incidence of postoperative complications, and patient satisfaction rates after surgery.
Circumcision is the simplest, most commonly used and most effective treatment for male prepuce overlength, phimosis and other diseases. There has also been a shift from traditional circumcision to simpler, faster, less invasive, instrument-based methods. This paper reviews the surgical methods of circumcision(Traditional circumcision、Electrosurgical circumcision、Laser circumcision、Sleeve circumcision, Dermotomy at the base of penis, Shangring, Gomco, Mogen, PlastiBell, PrePex, Alisklamp and Disposable circumcision suture apparatus), hoping to provide reference for clinicians to choose the appropriate circumcision methods for patients.

Methods: We report the diagnosis and treatment of a case of penile keratoacanthoma in our hospital and review the literature.
Results: The patient was admitted due to the discovery of a "new lesion on the glans for 4 months," diagnosed with a penile tumor, underwent tumor resection surgery, with histopathological examination revealing squamous epithelial hyperplasia, thickening, and excessive keratinization.

Objective: To discuss the clinical diagnosis and treatment of extragonadal germ cell tumor.
Methods: We analyzed the clinical data on a case of extragonadal germ cell tumor diagnosed and treated in the General Hospital of Eastern Theater Command and reviewed the relevant literature.
Results: The patient was initially diagnosed with retroperitoneal tumor and treated by resection of the tumor together with the left kidney due to the large volume of the tumor, which was complicated by pancreatic injury.
Castleman disease is a rare heterogeneous lymphoproliferative disorder of unknown etiology. Unicentric Castleman disease (UCD) is more common. UCD can occur at any site where lymphatic tissue exists, most commonly in the mediastinum, neck, and abdominal cavity, etc.

By applying multiregion whole-exome sequencing on normal-tumor-thrombus-metastasis quadruples from 33 ccRCC patients, we showed that metastases were mainly seeded by VTT (81.8%) rather than primary tumors (PTs).

However, the effect and underlying mechanisms of clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC)-derived exosomes (ccRCC-exo) on instructing macrophages phenotype remains unclear.
Methods: Macrophages were cocultured with ccRCC-exo and then evaluate the polarization of macrophages and migration of ccRCC cells.
Objective: In this study, we used the TCGA database and ICGC database to establish a prognostic model of iron death associated with renal cell carcinoma, which can provide predictive value for the identification of iron death-related genes and clinical treatment of renal clear cell carcinoma.
Methods: The gene expression profiles and clinical data of renal clear cell carcinoma and normal tissues were obtained in the TCGA database and ICGC database, and the differential genes related to iron death were screened out. The differential genes were screened out by single and multifactor Cox risk regression model.
Objective: To explore the clinical diagnosis and treatment of testicular cavernous hemangioma (TCH).
Methods: We retrospectively analyzed the clinical data on a case of TCH associated with testicular torsion treated in our hospital and reviewed the relevant literature.
Results: The patient underwent "right orchiectomy" after preoperative examinations.
Energy efficiency and energy intensity are gradually gaining attention, and it is now an important proposition to reconcile financial marketization, fiscal decentralization, and regional energy intensity. Using Chinese mainland provincial panel data (except Tibet) from 2007 to 2019, this study applied the dynamic panel system generalized method of moments model, the spatial Durbin model, and the panel threshold model to investigate the mechanisms of financial marketization and fiscal decentralization on regional energy intensity. The study found that financial marketization can play a significant role in suppressing regional energy intensity, while fiscal decentralization promotes energy intensity.

Nobiletin, a flavonoid found chiefly in oranges and lemons, has exhibited potential anti-proliferative and pro-apoptotic activities in various types of cancers. However, the inhibitory effect and mechanisms of nobiletin on renal cancer cells are unclear. CCK8 and plate clone formation assay were used to determine the effect of nobiletin on the proliferation of renal cancer cells, while scratch healing test was used to assay its effect on migration ability.

The Mahalanobis-Taguchi system (MTS) is a multivariate data diagnosis and prediction technology, which is widely used to optimize large sample data or unbalanced data, but it is rarely used for high-dimensional small sample data. In this paper, the optimized MTS for the classification of high-dimensional small sample data is discussed from two aspects, namely, the inverse matrix instability of the covariance matrix and the instability of feature selection. Firstly, based on regularization and smoothing techniques, this paper proposes a modified Mahalanobis metric to calculate the Mahalanobis distance, which is aimed at reducing the influence of the inverse matrix instability under small sample conditions.
