According to the Qi-blood-body fluid theory and the association between the spleen in visceral manifestation theory of traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） and mitochondria in modern cellular biology， it is proposed that the role of the spleen in generating and transforming Qi and blood is analogous to the energy-producing function of mitochondria—both serving as fundamental power sources for vital activities of the human body. The spleen governs transportation and transformation， playing a critical role in energy metabolism and the digestion and absorption of nutrients. Similarly， mitochondria are vital for maintaining physiological functions such as cellular energy supply， cell survival， and overall human metabolism. Furthermore， spleen deficiency is closely linked to mitochondrial dysfunction. Accordingly， mitochondrial energy conversion and substance metabolism are regarded as the microscopic essence of the spleen's function in transportation and transformation. Spleen deficiency and mitochondrial dysfunction contribute to the formation of pathological products such as phlegm-turbidity and blood stasis. This aligns with the pathogenesis of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease （COPD）， with Qi deficiency as the root cause and phlegm-turbidity and blood stasis as the manifestations. Therefore， the integrative treatment of COPD should follow the therapeutic principle of invigorating the spleen and reinforcing healthy Qi， while also resolving phlegm and removing blood stasis to address both root cause and manifestations. This approach can improve the mitochondrial function， regulate energy metabolism， and reduce oxidative stress levels to alleviate COPD symptoms， slow down disease progression， and improve prognosis. By integrating the holistic concept of TCM with molecular mechanisms of modern medicine， this paper explores the pathogenesis and therapeutic principles of COPD from the spleen-mitochondria correlation. It not only provides a new direction for the modern development of TCM and the integration of Chinese and Western medicine but also offers a theoretical foundation for the integrated treatment of chronic， complex age-related diseases.

Objective:Primary pulmonary mucoepidermoid carcinoma(PMEC)is a rare malignant lung tumor that accounts for approxim-ately 0.1%-0.2%of all primary pulmonary neoplasms.Due to the non-specific clinical symptoms and epidemiological features,PMEC poses diagnostic challenges.Methods:Tissue blocks from 23 archived PMECs were collected from The First Affiliated Hospital of Soochow Uni-versity(November 2012 to December 2023).To establish definitive diagnoses,comprehensive histopathological evaluation,including histo-morphological analysis,immunohistochemistry(IHC),fluorescence in situ hybridization(FISH),and periodic acid-Schiff(PAS)staining were performed.Results:The tumors consisted of varying proportions of mucin-secreting cells(mucous cells),intermediate cells,and epidermoid cells.Immunophenotypically,CK7 was predominantly expressed in the mucous cells,whereas CK5/6,p40,and p63 were expressed in the epidermoid and intermediate cells.The Ki-67 proliferation index ranged from 5%to 60%.All tumors were negative for TTF-1 and Napsin A.Five of the tumors were positive for PD-L1(clone 22C3),with a tumor percentage score of 3%-20%.All 11 tumors tested for ALK(clone D5F3)were negative.IHC for c-Met was performed on two tumors and both were weakly positive(+).Mastermind-like transcriptional co-activator 2(MAML2)gene rearrangement was detected in 34.8%(8/23)of the tumors.Mucous cells were PAS positive.Kaplan-Meier surviv-al analysis revealed a significantly poorer prognosis for patients with lymph node metastasis,distant metastasis,advanced TNM stage(Ⅲ+Ⅳ),poor differentiation,or MAML2 gene rearrangement negativity.Univariate analysis identified poor histological differentiation,lymph node metastasis,distant metastasis,and advanced TNM stage as the major prognostic risk factors.Multivariate analysis confirmed poor differentiation and distant metastasis as independent risk factors for adverse outcomes.Conclusions:PMEC is an aggressive tumor with low incidence and non-specific clinical manifestations,leading to frequent misdiagnosis.Clinicians should maintain a high index of suspicion and ensure a thorough differential diagnosis.

Objective:To study the dosimetric characteristics of the Avoidance Sectors function in the Eclipse planning system in the design of volumetric intensity-modulated arc radiotherapy(VMAT)plan for non-small cell lung cancer(NSCLC).Methods:The case data of 20 NSCLC patients who admitted to Hunan Provincial Cancer Hospital in 2024 were retrospectively selected,both free avoidance sectors volumetric(FASV)modulated arc therapy and avoidance sectors volumetric(ASV)modulated arc therapy were formulated for all patients.The dose parameters and the total number of machine unit(MU)of accelerator of the target area and organs at risk between two kinds of plans were compared.The correlation between the ratio(VPTV/Vlung)of planning target volume(PTV)to whole lung volume and the exposure dosimetry index of whole lung were further analyzed.Results:Comparative result between FASV plan and ASV plan indicated that the conformity index(CI)of the FASV plan was(0.83±0.07),which was better than that of the ASV plan(0.78±0.06),and the difference was significant(t=2.086,P<0.05).The V5 value(48.35±7.28)%of the whole lung in the ASV plan was significantly lower than that(57.68±6.63)%in the FASV plan(t=3.670,P<0.05).There were not statistically significant differences in the V20,V30 and mean dose(Dmean)of the whole lung and heart between two kinds of plans(P>0.05).There were not statistically significant differences in the maximum doses of the spinal cord and esophagus between two kinds of plans(P>0.05).The total MU value(444.8±78.9)of the ASV plan was less than that(518.27±70.9)of the FASV plan(t=2.682,P<0.05).The results of Pearson correlation analysis indicated that the correlative values between VPTV/Vlung and V20,V30,and Dmean of whole lung were respectively r=0.756,0.697,and 0.732 in FASV plan(P<0.05).Conclusion:For NSCLC patients,the ASV plan can effectively reduce V5 value of lung tissue,and decrease the total MU value of accelerator's irradiation.The avoidance sectors function is worthy of recommendation.In FASV plan,the VPTV/Vlung value appeared a positive correlation with whole lung V20,V30,and Dmean.It is very necessary to adopt individual management strategies for respiratory motion in reducing the irradiation range of target area.

[Purpose]To analyze the prevalence characteristics and disease burden of lung cancer in Hebei cancer registration areas from 2012 to 2020.[Methods]Lung cancer data were collected from the Hebei Provincial Cancer Registry from 2012 to 2020.The crude incidence/mortality rates,age-standardized incidence/mortality rates by Chinese standard population(ASIRC/ASMRC)and by world standard population(ASIRW/ASMRW)were calculated.The Joinpoint model was used to calculate the annual percentage change(APC)and average annual percentage change(AAPC).Years of life lost(YLL)and years lived with disability(YLD)and the disability-adjusted life years(DALY)were calculated.[Results]From 2012 to 2020,the ASIRW of lung cancer in Hebei can-cer registration areas was 33.13/105,44.56/105 for men and 22.54/105 for women,respectively;the incidence rates of urban and rural areas were 29.05/105 and 33.52/105,respectively.The incidence rates increased with ages,reaching a peak in the age group of 80～84 years old.There was a de-creasing trend in the ASIRW of lung cancer(AAPC=-3.99％,P＜0.05).From 2012 to 2020,the ASMRW of lung cancer was 25.80/105,36.56/105 for men and 15.96/105 for women,respectively;the mortality rates of urban and rural areas were 25.14/105 and 26.12/105,respectively.The mor-tality rates increase with ages,reaching a peak in the age group of 85 and above years old.There was a decreasing trend in the mortality of lung cancer(AAPC=-4.65％,P＜0.001)from 2012 to 2020.The DALY of lung cancer in Hebei Province from 2012 to 2020 was 484 194 person-years,with male accounting for 66.77％,female accounted for 33.23％,the DALY rate of lung cancer was 3.31‰,of which 35.57％in urban areas and 64.43％in rural areas.[Conclusion]Lung can-cer incidence and mortality rate in Hebei cancer registration areas from 2012 to 2020 showed a decreasing trend.The disease burden is gradually increasing with age in middle-aged and el-derly population.

Objective:To investigate genetic findings and pregnancy outcomes in fetuses with omphalocele.Methods:This retrospective study analyzed data from 502 fetuses with prenatally diagnosed omphalocele who underwent genetic testing at Guangzhou Women and Children's Medical Center and Maternal and Child Health Hospital of Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region between January 2014 and March 2024. Testing methods included karyotyping, chromosomal microarray analysis (CMA), methylation-specific multiplex ligation-dependent probe amplification, and whole-exome sequencing (WES). Cases were categorized as non-isolated ( n=340) or isolated ( n=162) based on ultrasound findings. Differences in genetic abnormality detection rates and pregnancy outcomes were analyzed using Mann-Whitney U test, independent samples t-test, and Chi-square test (or Fisher's exact test). Results:Among 502 fetuses, karyotyping plus CMA detected chromosomal abnormalities in 223 cases (44.4%, 223/502), including trisomy 18 (57.0%, 127/223) and trisomy 13 (23.3%, 52/223). CMA additionally identified nine pathogenic copy number variations (1.8%, 9/502) and five uniparental disomies (1.0%, 5/502), increasing the total diagnostic yield from 44.4% to 47.2%. The genetic abnormality rate was significantly lower in isolated (14.8%, 24/162) versus non-isolated omphalocele (64.7%, 220/340) ( χ2=109.34, P<0.001). WES detected variants in nine of 16 karyotype/CMA-negative cases, including five pathogenic variants involving PIK3CA and CDKN1C. Eight imprinting disorders (1.6%, 8/502) were identified, including five Beckwith-Wiedemann syndrome cases. Among 499 cases with follow-up, 401 (80.4%, 401/499) underwent pregnancy termination. Live birth rate was higher in isolated versus non-isolated groups [42.5% (69/162) vs. 8.5% (29/340), χ2=77.67, P<0.001]. Three cases were lost to follow-up. The one-year survival rate was 93.9% (92/98) in live-born infants. Conclusion:Aneuploidy (particularly trisomy 18) is the primary genetic etiology of omphalocele. CMA and WES significantly improve diagnostic yield. Isolated omphalocele has a more favorable prognosis, while non-isolated cases show significantly higher genetic abnormality rates. A stratified testing strategy is recommended: karyotyping plus CMA for isolated cases and prioritization of WES for multiple anomalies.

Objective To design an intelligent airborne soldier physical training system based on human body composition analysis to solve the problems in diversity of training mode,targeted training plan and high incidence of military training-related injuries.Methods The intelligent airborne military physical training system was designed with B/S architecture and developed with Python language,which was composed of four functional modules for airborne soldier information acquisition,trainee physical fitness state assessment,physical fitness training program recommendation and airborne soldier physical fitness training program evaluation.The airborne soldier information acquisition module collected and analyzed the trainee physiological parameter information with a human body composition analyzer,clarified the parameter characteristics related to physical training with considerations on military physical training requirements and constructed a trainee physical fitness assessment parameter model;the trainee physical fitness state assessment module established an evaluation model based on machine learning to realize stage-by-stage physical fitness evaluation for airborne soldiers;the physical fitness training program recommendation module was constructed based on the physical training feature similarity algorithm and graph embedding theory to provide decision making assistance for program development of airborne military physical training;the airborne soldier physical fitness training program evaluation module compared the physical fitness and evaluation results before and after training by means of list and chart,and updated the training program based on the evaluation results by calling the physical training program recommendation module.Results The intelligent airborne soldier physical training system contributed to forming an individualized physical fitness training recommendation mechanism after trainee body evaluation,modifying training program based on comparison and feedback for stage-by-stage training evaluation,so as to decrease the incidence of military training-related injuries while increasing the training efficiency.Conclusion The system developed improves airborne soldier physical training in rationality and reliability,and provides references for intelligent military training of the PLA.[Chinese Medical Equipment Journal,2025,46(2):16-23]

Objective:This study aimed to evaluate whether intra-articular delivery of conditioned medium(CM)derived from stem cells of human exfoliated deciduous teeth(SHED)could influence the progression of condylar cartilage degeneration in a rat model of temporomandibular joint osteoarthritis(TMJ OA).Methods:Sixty 8-week-old male SD rats were randomly divided into control group(CON group),intraarticular injection of MIA induced TMJ OA model group(MIA group),and injection of SHED condi-tioned medium 1 week after MIA modeling for treatment group(SHED-CM group),with 20 animals in each group.Histological sec-tions,HE,Safranine O-solid green staining,Col Ⅱ immunohistochemical staining,and TUNEL staining were performed 2 and 4 weeks after the start of treatment.Western blotting and RT-qPCR were used to detect the key molecules of apoptosis,cleaved-CASP3,BAX and BCL2,pro-inflammatory related factors IL-1β,IL-6,TNFα,MMP3,ADAMTS5,and the MAPK pathway-related molecules p-ERK,ERK,p-P38 and P38.Results:Compared with the CON group and SHED-CM group,the condyle chondrocytes in the MIA group had disordered arrange-ment,interrupted layers,significantly thickened fibrous layers(P＜0.001),and significantly increased Mankin's OA histological score(P＜0.001).In the MIA group,both the Safranin O-positive area ratio and the proportion of ColⅡ-positive regions were markedly reduced compared with the CON and SHED-CM groups(P＜0.001).Conversely,the proportion of TUNEL-positive cells was substantially higher than in the other two groups(both P＜0.001).Western blot analysis further demonstrated that apoptotic markers(cleaved-CASP3,BAX/BCL2)and MAPK pathway-related proteins(p-ERK,ERK,p-P38,P38)were expressed at significantly elevated levels in the MIA group relative to CON and SHED-CM groups(BAX/BCL2:P＜0.05;cleaved-CASP3:P＜0.01;p-P38/P38:P＜0.001;p-ERK/ERK:P＜0.01).Similarly,qRT-PCR revealed upregulated expression of inflammatory mediators,including IL-1 β(P＜0.001),IL-6(P＜0.01),TNFα(P＜0.01),MMP3(P＜0.001),and ADAMTS5(P＜0.05),in the MIA group compared with the CON and SHED-CM groups.Conclusion:SHED-CM treatment can ef-fectively reverse MIA-induced condylar cartilage degeneration of TMJ OA in rats.

Objective:To explore the effectiveness of digital management platform led by outpatient specialist nurses among patients with type 2 diabetes in outpatient settings.Methods:From March 2024 to March 2025, adult patients with type 2 diabetes who visited the Endocrinology Clinic at Peking Union Medical College Hospital were selected using convenience sampling. Patients were randomly assigned to the control group and intervention group using the random number table method. Patients in control group received routine education on type 2 diabetes during their clinic visits after enrollment. Intervention group was managed by nurses through a digital management platform, establishing long-term connections with patients. Based on the platform, nurses regularly provided patients with knowledge updates, promptly responded to patient inquiries, reviewed daily dietary records, monitored blood glucose data, conducted weekly telephone follow-ups, and scheduled regular clinic visits to precisely intervene in patients' lifestyles. The glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) and self-management behavior scores were compared between two groups of patients before and after three months of intervention.Results:A total of 46 patients were enrolled and completed the 3-month follow-up, including 25 in control group and 21 in intervention group. There were no statistically significant differences in HbA1c or self-management behavior scores between the two groups of patients before intervention ( P>0.05). At three months of intervention, the HbA1c reduction in intervention group was greater than that in control group, with a statistically significant difference ( P<0.05). There was no statistically significant difference in Summary of Diabetes Self-Care Activities Scale scores between the two groups ( P>0.05). The difference in changes in diabetic foot self-screening scores between intervention group and control group was statistically significant ( P<0.05) . Conclusions:Specialist nurse-led precision health care management utilizing digital platforms can improve HbA1c and enhance self-management behaviors for diabetic foot in patients with type 2 diabetes, which is expected to be promoted and applied in the outpatient management of diabetes patients.

Objective:To explore the effect of the forward moving pelvic floor exercise program in urinary incontinence management among patients undergoing radical prostatectomy.Methods:From June 2022 to January 2024, 150 patients undergoing radical prostatectomy of the Urology Surgery Department, the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University were selected using convenience sampling. Patients were randomly divided into an observation group and a control group, with 75 cases in each group. Control group received conventional perioperative management for prostate cancer, while observation group implemented a forward moving pelvic floor exercise program in addition to conventional management. The incidence of urinary incontinence, urinary control capabilities before and after intervention (including maximum urinary flow rate, average urinary flow rate, voided urine volume, and residual urine volume), and quality of life scores [evaluated using the Chinese version of the Incontinence Quality of Life Questionnaire (I-QOL) ] were compared between two groups of patients.Results:The incidence of urinary incontinence of observation group was lower than that of control group. Furthermore, patients with urinary incontinence in observation group exhibited significantly lower urine leakage volume and fewer episodes of urinary incontinence over 24 hours at one month postoperatively compared to control group, with statistically significant differences ( P<0.05). There were no statistically significant differences in maximum urinary flow rate, average urinary flow rate, voided urine volume, or residual urine volume between the two groups before intervention ( P>0.05). Following intervention, both groups demonstrated increased maximum urinary flow rate, average urinary flow rate, and voided urine volume compared to baseline, with observation group exhibiting higher values than control group ( P<0.05), and residual urine volume of both groups decreased compared to baseline, with observation group showing lower values than control group, these differences were statistically significant ( P<0.05). The difference in I-QOL scores between the two groups before intervention was not statistically significant ( P>0.05). Following intervention, I-QOL scores decreased in both groups, but observation group had higher score than control group, and the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.05) . Conclusions:The forward moving pelvic floor exercise program effectively reduces the incidence of urinary incontinence in patients undergoing radical prostatectomy, alleviates the severity of incontinence, and improves both urodynamic outcomes and quality of life.
