Spatial anti-bunching correlation in random light fields.

Spatial anti-bunching, in contrast to the well-known bunching behavior observed in classical light sources, describes a situation where photons tend to avoid each other in space, resulting in a reduced probability of detecting two or more photons in proximity. This anti-bunching effect, a hallmark of nonclassical light, signifies a deviation from classical intensity fluctuations and has been observed not only in free electrons and entangled photon pairs but also in chaotic-thermal light. This work investigates the generation mechanism of spatial anti-bunching correlation in random light fields, leveraging the wandering of light centers to induce a second-order coherence degree below unity.

Using a consensus acupoints regimen to explore the relationship between acupuncture sensation and lumbar spinal postoperative analgesia: A retrospective analysis of prospective clinical cooperation.

Objective: This study evaluated the effectiveness of acupuncture treatment on postoperative pain in patients with degenerative lumbar spine disease, and explored the relationship between the postoperative analgesic effect of acupuncture and the sensation of acupuncture experienced by the patients.

Methods: This retrospective study analyzed the medical records of 97 patients who had undergone an operation by the same surgeon due to degenerative lumbar disease. These patients were divided into acupuncture group (n = 32), patient-controlled analgesia (PCA) group (n = 27), and oral analgesia group (n = 38) according to the different postoperative analgesic methods.

Clinical features related to lymphatic metastasis in grade 3 endometroid endometrial cancer: a retrospective cross-sectional study.

Background: Endometrial cancer (EC) has been one of the most general cancers with respect to gynecological malignancies; however, there are debates on clinical strategies concerning treatments especially for patients with grade 3 (G3) endometroid endometrial cancer (EEC). Present study aimed to evaluate the lymphatic metastasis (LM) related factors and figure out the necessity of lymphadenectomy for G3 EEC patients.

Methods: From January 2009 to April 2019, 3751 EC patients were admitted to Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital of Fudan University.

A longitudinal fixel-based analysis of white matter alterations in patients with Parkinson's disease.

Introduction: Disruption to white matter pathways is an important contributor to the pathogenesis of Parkinson's disease. Fixel-based analysis has recently emerged as a useful fiber-specific tool for examining white matter structure. In this longitudinal study, we used Fixel-based analysis to investigate white matter changes occurring over time in patients with Parkinson's disease.

Acupuncture Effect and Mechanism for Treating Pain in Patients With Parkinson's Disease.

Non-motor symptoms of Parkinson's disease (PD) have been receiving increasing attention. Approximately half of patients with PD have experience PD-related pain. We investigated the effect and mechanism of acupuncture in patients with PD who have pain.

Adverse factors responsible for below-normal platelet count after laparoscopic splenectomy and azygoportal disconnection.

Background/aims: Splenectomy is regarded as an effective curative treatment for thrombocytopenia caused by hypersplenism in patients with cirrhosis. However, in clinical practice, thrombocytopenia is not resolved by splenectomy in all patients. This study aimed to evaluate the adverse factors responsible for platelet (PLT) counts below the normal lower limit following laparoscopic splenectomy and azygoportal disconnection (LSD).

Phenethyl isothiocyanate suppresses the metastasis of ovarian cancer associated with the inhibition of CRM1-mediated nuclear export and mTOR-STAT3 pathway.

Epithelial ovarian cancer is prone to metastasizing at an early stage, but their mechanisms remain unclear. CRM1 is an important nuclear exportin and inhibitors targeting CRM1 has been explored as an anti-cancer strategy. In previous study, we observed that PEITC could combine with the hydrophobic pocket of CRM1.

Complete mitochondrial genome sequence and mutations of the liver cancer model inbred C57BL/6 mice strain.

In the present work, we undertook the complete mitochondrial genome sequencing of an important liver cancer model inbred rat strain for the first time. The total length of the mitogenome was 16,308 bp. It harbored 13 protein-coding genes, 2 ribosomal RNA genes, 22 transfer RNA genes and 1 non-coding control region (D-loop region).

SLC1A2 variant is associated with essential tremor in Taiwanese population.

Essential tremor (ET), which is one of the most common movement disorders, may lead to severe interference in quality of life. The first genome-wide association study (GWAS) has identified an association of the LINGO1 variant (rs9652490) with ET in Americans and Europeans. Recently, a second GWAS that was performed in a European population has discovered a new variant (rs3794087) of the main glial glutamate transporter (SLC1A2) that increases the risk of ET with an odds ratio of about 1.

[Application of carbon nanoparticles in the laparoscopic sentinel lymph node detection in patients with cervical cancer].

Objective: To explore the role of laparoscopic sentinel lymph node(SLN) detection with carbon nanoparticles tracer in cervical carcinoma.

Methods: Totally 21 patients with confirmed early cervical cancer were enrolled in this study.Before laparoscopic extended hysterectomy and pelvic lymphadenoetomy(and para-aortic lymphadenoectomy) , they were injected with carbon nanoparticles suspension injection tracer from cervical neck before surgery.

[Perioperative monitoring and control of hyperglycemia during deep hypothermic circulatory arrest].

Objective: To observe the trend of change in perioperative blood glucose level in patients undergoing deep hypothermic circulatory arrest (DHCA), in order to evaluate the influencing factors of inciting hyperglycemia and the clinical effects of insulin control.

Methods: In the Department of Cardiothoracic Surgery of Changhai Hospital, 176 patients underwent aortic operation under DHCA from January 2000 to January 2010. Blood glucose, arterial blood gas and lactate levels were determined at four time points, including pre-cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB), pre-DHCA, post-DHCA, and at admission to intensive care unit (ICU).

Meta-analysis of laparoscopic versus open resection for hepatocellular carcinoma.

Background: Laparoscopic liver resection (LLR) remains to be established as a safe and effective alternative to open liver resection (OLR) for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).

Aims: The aim of this meta-analysis is to compare laparoscopic versus open resection for HCC with regard to perioperative and oncologic outcomes.

Methods: A literature search was performed to identify comparative studies reporting outcomes for both laparoscopic and open resection for HCC.
