Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is one of the most common types of cancer in the world and is an important cause for cancer death. Although the application of immunotherapy in recent years has greatly improved the prognosis of NSCLC, there are still huge challenges in the treatment of NSCLC. The immune microenvironment plays an important role in the process of NSCLC development, infiltration and metastasis, and they can interact and influence each other, forming a vicious circle. Notably, single-cell RNA sequencing enables high-resolution analysis of individual cells and is of great value in revealing cell types, cell evolution trajectories, molecular mechanisms of cell differentiation, and intercellular regulation within the immune microenvironment. Single-cell RNA sequencing is expected to uncover more promising immunotherapies. This article reviews the important researches and latest achievements of single-cell RNA sequencing in the immune microenvironment of NSCLC, and aims to explore the significance of applying single-cell RNA sequencing to analyze the immune microenvironment of NSCLC.

Objective To compare the short-term clinical effects of Da Vinci robot-assisted thoracic surgery (RATS) and video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) in the treatment of posterior mediastinal tumors, and to explore the advantages of RATS posterior mediastinal tumor resection. Methods The clinical data of patients who underwent posterior mediastinal tumors resection through the lateral chest approach admitted to the same medical group in the Department of Thoracic Surgery of the First Hospital of Lanzhou University between January 2019 to January 2023 were retrospectively analyzed. According to the different surgical methods, the patients were divided into a RATS group and a VATS group. The clinical data were compared between the two groups. Results A total of 85 patients were included in this study. There were 39 patients in the RATS group, including 25 females and 14 males, with an average age of 47.6±13.0 years, and 46 patients in the VATS group, including 14 males and 32 females, with an average age of 45.3±14.7 years. All patients completed the operation successfully. The hospitalization cost in the RATS group was significantly higher than that in the VATS group (P<0.001), and the white blood cell count and neutrophilic granulocyte percentage on the first day after operation in the RATS group were lower than those in the VATS group, and the differences were statistically significant (P<0.05). The operative time, intraoperative bleeding, postoperative hospital stay, white blood cell count and neutrophil percentage on the third postoperative day, visual analogue scale score on the first and third postoperative days, duration of analgesic pump use, postoperative 12 h oxygen saturation (no oxygen inhalation), postoperative down bed time, total thoracic drainage volume, duration of drainage tube retention, and postoperative complication rates were not statistically different between the two groups (P>0.05). There was no perioperative death, conversion to thoracotomy or serious perioperative complications in both groups. Conclusion RATS resection of posterior mediastinal tumor via lateral thoracic approach is safe and feasible, and its short-term effect is similar to that of VATS via lateral thoracic single-hole approach. It is worth further comparative study to explore its benefit and cost performance.

Objective To investigate the effectiveness and safety of acetaminophen combined with ketorolac tromethamine in pain management early after laparoscopic cholecystectomy(LC).Methods Ninety patients with LC under general anesthesia,42 males and 48 females,aged 18-78 years,BMI 18-28 kg/m2,ASA physical statusⅠorⅡ,were selected and randomly divided into two groups by random num-ber table method:the acetaminophen combined with ketorolac tromethamine group(group AK)and the nal-buphine group(group NA),45 patients in each group.Group AK received 500 mg(diluted to 50 ml)of acetaminophen injection and 30 mg of ketorolac tromethamine(diluted to 10 ml)injection pumped 15 mi-nutes before induction of anesthesia,and group NA received 50 ml of NS injection and 0.2 mg/kg of nalbu-phine(diluted to 10 ml)injection pumped at the same time.Postoperative pain was recorded 0.5,3,6,12,and 24 hours after surgery using VAS pain scores(the non-inferiority boundary Δ = 1.0 score).The sleep quality score on the night of surgery,the number of remedial analgesia cases within 24 hours after sur-gery,the Ramsay sedation score 0.5,3,and 6 hours after surgery,the occurrence of adverse reactions such as nausea and vomiting within 24 hours after surgery,and the overall satisfaction of patients were recorded.Results Compared with group NA,the VAS pain scores 0.5 hour after surgery was reduced in group AK(P＜0.05).The sleep quality score and overall satisfaction in group AK were significantly higher than those in group NA(P＜0.05).There were no significant differences in the rate of remedial analgesia,the score of Ramsay sedation at different time points and the incidence of nausea and vomiting within 24 hours after surgery between the two groups.Conclusion Acetaminophen combined with ketorolac tromethamine is not less effective than nalbuphine in relieving early postoperative pain after laparoscopic cholecystectomy without increasing the incidence of nausea and vomiting.Patients receiving acetaminophen combined with ketorolac tromethamine have higher sleep quality scores on the night of surgery and overall satisfaction.

Objective To investigate the incidence rate,clinical characteristics,and prognosis of neonatal stroke in Shenzhen,China.Methods Led by Shenzhen Children's Hospital,the Shenzhen Neonatal Data Collaboration Network organized 21 institutions to collect 36 cases of neonatal stroke from January 2020 to December 2022.The incidence,clinical characteristics,treatment,and prognosis of neonatal stroke in Shenzhen were analyzed.Results The incidence rate of neonatal stroke in 21 hospitals from 2020 to 2022 was 1/15 137,1/6 060,and 1/7 704,respectively.Ischemic stroke accounted for 75％(27/36);boys accounted for 64％(23/36).Among the 36 neonates,31(86％)had disease onset within 3 days after birth,and 19(53％)had convulsion as the initial presentation.Cerebral MRI showed that 22 neonates(61％)had left cerebral infarction and 13(36％)had basal ganglia infarction.Magnetic resonance angiography was performed for 12 neonates,among whom 9(75％)had involvement of the middle cerebral artery.Electroencephalography was performed for 29 neonates,with sharp waves in 21 neonates(72％)and seizures in 10 neonates(34％).Symptomatic/supportive treatment varied across different hospitals.Neonatal Behavioral Neurological Assessment was performed for 12 neonates(33％,12/36),with a mean score of(32±4)points.The prognosis of 27 neonates was followed up to around 12 months of age,with 44％(12/27)of the neonates having a good prognosis.Conclusions Ischemic stroke is the main type of neonatal stroke,often with convulsions as the initial presentation,involvement of the middle cerebral artery,sharp waves on electroencephalography,and a relatively low neurodevelopment score.Symptomatic/supportive treatment is the main treatment method,and some neonates tend to have a poor prognosis.

Aim To investigate the effect of discoidin domain receptor 1(DDR1)on high glucose induced endothelial cell dysfunction and the underlying mecha-nism.Methods Human umbilical vein endothelial cells(HUVECs)were cultured in vitro and divided in-to the control group and high glucose induction group(HG).HUVECs were treated with 33 mmol·L-1 D-glucose for 48 hours to construct endothelial dysfunc-tion.Pyroptosis was detected using propidium iodide staining(PI);lactate dehydrogenase(LDH)and IL-1β,IL-18 levels were determined using enzyme linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA);the expression of DDR1 and NF-κB/NLRP3 signaling pathway proteins and pyroptosis related proteinses were detected using Western blot.Subsequently,the experiment was divid-ed into the control group,HG group,HG+DDR1 NC group,and HG+DDR1 siRNA group.The effect of high glucose on the proliferation and migration of HU-VECs was observed after transfection with DDR1 siR-NA for 24 hours;ELISA was used to detect the endo-thelial nitric oxide synthase(eNOS),vascular cell ad-hesion molecule-1(VCAM-1),intercellular adhesion molecule-1(ICAM-1),as well as LDH,IL-1β,IL-18 levels;PI was employed to detect pyroptosis;Western blot was applied to detect DDR1 and NF-κB/NLRP3 signaling pathway proteins and pyroptosis related pro-teins.Results Compared with the control group,HG group decreased eNOS content,increased VCAM-1 and ICAM-1 contents,decreased cell viability and migration ability,and significantly increased the expressions of DDR1,p-NF-κB,NLRP3 and pyroptosis related pro-teins.The levels of LDH,IL-1β,IL-18 and the rate of pyroptosis significantly increased(P＜0.05).Com-pared with HG group,DDR1 siRNA could promote the secretion of eNOS,decrease the levels of VCAM-1,ICAM-1,LDH,IL-1β and IL-1 8,increase cell viability and migration ability,reduce the expression of p-NF-κB,NLRP3 and pyroptosis related proteins,and inhibit high glucose-induced pyroptosis of HUVECs(P＜0.05).Conclusions Gene silencing DDR1 can im-prove vascular endothelial cell dysfunction induced by high glucose,and the mechanism is related to the inhi-bition of NF-κB/NLRP3 signaling pathway mediated pyroptosis.

Chronic prostatitis/chronic pelvic pain syndrome (CP/CPPS) is a common and non-lethal urological condition with painful symptoms. The complexity of CP/CPPS’s pathogenesis and lack of efficient etiological diagnosis results in incomplete treatment and recurrent episodes, causing long-term mental and psychological suffering in patients. Recent findings indicate that the autonomic nervous system involves in CP/CPPS, including sensory, sympathetic, parasympathetic, and central nervous systems. Neuro-inflammation and sensitization of sensory nerves lead to persistent inflammation and pain. Sympathetic and parasympathetic alterations affect the cardiovascular and reproductive systems and the development of prostatitis. Central sensitization lowers pain thresholds and increases pelvic pain perception in chronic prostatitis. Therefore, this review summarized the detailed processes and mechanisms of the critical role of the autonomic nervous system in developing CP/CPPS.Furthermore, it describes the neurologically relevant substances and channels or receptors involved in this process, which provides new perspectives for new therapeutic approaches to CP/CPPS.

OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to investigate whether the VCA0560 gene acts as an active diguanylate cyclase (DGC) in Vibrio cholerae and how its transcription is regulated by Fur and HapR. METHODS: The roles of VCA0560 was investigated by utilizing various phenotypic assays, including colony morphological characterization, crystal violet staining, Cyclic di-GMP (c-di-GMP) quantification, and swimming motility assay. The regulation of the VCA0560 gene by Fur and HapR was analyzed by luminescence assay, electrophoretic mobility shift assay, and DNase I footprinting. RESULTS: VCA0560 gene mutation did not affect biofilm formation, motility, and c-di-GMP synthesis in V. cholerae, and its overexpression remarkably enhanced biofilm formation and intracellular c-di-GMP level but reduced motility capacity. The transcription of the VCA0560 gene was directly repressed by Fur and the master quorum sensing regulator HapR. CONCLUSION Overexpressed VCA0560 functions as an active DGC in V. cholerae, and its transcription is repressed by Fur and HapR.
