Objective To develop an artificial intelligence (AI)-driven lung cancer database by structuring and standardizing clinical data, enabling advanced data mining for lung cancer research, and providing high-quality data for real-world studies. Methods Building on the extensive clinical data resources of the Department of Thoracic Surgery at Peking Union Medical College Hospital, this study utilized machine learning techniques, particularly natural language processing (NLP), to automatically process unstructured data from electronic medical records, examination reports, and pathology reports, converting them into structured formats. Data governance and automated cleaning methods were employed to ensure data integrity and consistency. Results As of September 2024, the database included comprehensive data from 18 811 patients, encompassing inpatient and outpatient records, examination and pathology reports, physician orders, and follow-up information, creating a well-structured, multi-dimensional dataset with rich variables. The database’s real-time querying and multi-layer filtering functions enabled researchers to efficiently retrieve study data that meet specific criteria, significantly enhancing data processing speed and advancing research progress. In a real-world application exploring the prognosis of non-small cell lung cancer, the database facilitated the rapid analysis of prognostic factors. Research findings indicated that factors such as tumor staging and comorbidities had a significant impact on patient survival rates, further demonstrating the database’s value in clinical big data mining. Conclusion The AI-driven lung cancer database enhances data management and analysis efficiency, providing strong support for large-scale clinical research, retrospective studies, and disease management. With the ongoing integration of large language models and multi-modal data, the database’s precision and analytical capabilities are expected to improve further, providing stronger support for big data mining and real-world research of lung cancer.

Immunoglobulin A nephropathy is a common autoimmune nephropathy.A growing body of research suggests that immunoglobulin A nephropathy may be associated with dysfunction of the mucosal immune system.Immunoglobulin A nephropathy is characterized by thylakoid deposi-tion of galactose-deficient IgA1 immune complex-es,which are thought to originate from mucosal B-cells,which are abundantly present in the distal ile-um,which is rich in Pyle's collecting lymph nodes.A novel targeted release formulation of budesonide has been shown to deliver the drug to the distal ileum with the aim of minimizing adverse events in patients with immunoglobulin A nephrop-athy.This article reviews the mechanism of action,dosage form characteristics,clinical studies,drug interactions and adverse events,and limitations of budesonide extended-release capsules.

Objective To observe the value of gastric filling ultrasound(GFUS)for diagnosing dysphagia after surgical operation of hiatal hernia(HH).Methods Totally 71 HH patients who underwent laparoscopic HH repair and fundoplication surgery were retrospectively enrolled and divided into dysphagia group(n=23)and non dysphagia group(n=48)according to postoperative Saeed scores.GFUS parameters,including inner diameter of esophageal hiatus lumen(IDE),wall thickness of abdominal esophageal(WTE)and inner diameter of the esophageal lumen at the fold(FIDE)were compared between groups,and their value of diagnosing postoperative dysphagia were analyzed.Results In dysphagia group,IDE and FIDE were lower,while WTE was higher than those in non dysphagia group(all P＜0.05).Low IDE and high WTE were both independent risk factors of postoperative dysphagia in HH patients.The sensitivity,specificity and area under the curve(AUC)of IDE for diagnosing dysphagia after surgical operation of HH was 82.64％,66.69％and 0.773,of WTE was 82.59％,68.73％and 0.793,of their combination was 88.89％,77.59％and 0.843,respectively.The AUC of the combination of IDE and WTE was higher than that of IDE and WTE alone(Z=1.328,1.364,P=0.044,0.043).Conclusion Combination of GFUS parameters IDE and WTE was valuable for diagnosing dysphagia after surgical operation of HH.

Lecanemab is a new drug used to treat early Alzheimer's disease (AD) with mild cognitive impairment or mild dementia. It is a human anti-Aβ fibril monoclonal IgG1 antibody, which is injected intravenously into the patient, through the blood-brain barrier into the brain, clearing amyloid plaque, thereby slowing the rate of cognitive decline in patients and delaying disease progression. This article reviews the pharmacological studies, clinical studies, safety and limitations of lecanemab, in order to help clinical understand the current research status and existing achievements of this drug.

To reduce the subjectivity and uncertainty present in the current international methods of drug value pricing when converting value into monetary prices,based on the hedonic pricing theory,it considers the post-negotiation price between manufacturers and payers as a reasonable price reference in the value pricing of Chinese patent medicine.By constructing an indicator system for the characteristics of Chinese patent medicine,it selects and measures the value characteristic variables that affect the price of Chinese patent medicine.It serves as the theoretical foundation and research basis for establishing a Hedonic price model between characteristic price variables and negotiation prices,thereby promoting the enhancement of rationality and objectivity in value-guided pricing of Chinese patent medicine.

Objective To understand the epidemiological characteristics of Chlamydia trachomatis infection in Hubei province, and to provide scientific basis for prevention and control. Methods The data of Chlamydia trachomatis infection cases reported through the China Information System for Disease Control and Prevention from 2008 to 2022 were collected for epidemiological statistical analysis. Results The incidence of Chlamydia trachomatis infection in Hubei Province showed an increasing trend from 2008 to 2022, with an average annual reported incidence of 2.26/100 000. The top three reported incidence areas were Shiyan (6.04/100 000), Yichang (5.62/100 000) and Shennongjia (3.47/ 100 000). The reported incidence in southeast area was significantly higher than that in other areas (χ²=2869.603 , P < 0.001). The high incidence age group was 20-39 years old, accounting for more than 70%. The reported incidence in females was higher than that in males (χ²=1429.27 , P < 0.001). Housework and unemployment were the most common professions (43.54%). The case reporting institutions were mainly comprehensive hospitals (87.29%). Conclusion To effectively control the infection and transmission of Chlamydia trachomatis, it is necessary to strengthen the health popularization of STD knowledge, intervention and early active screening of high-risk groups.

Tafamidis is a selective stabilizer for transthyretin （TTR）， used for the treatment of transthyretin amyloidosis with cardiomyopathy （ATTR-CM） and transthyretin amyloidosis with polyneuropathy （ATTR-PN）. This article provides a review of the basic information and clinical studies on the efficacy and safety of tafamidis. It is found that tafamidis slows down or prevents the progression of TTR amyloidosis by inhibiting the dissociation of TTR tetramers. Multiple clinical studies have shown that tafamidis has good efficacy and safety， significantly reducing all-cause mortality and cardiovascular-related hospitalization rates in patients with amyloidosis， and delaying disease progression. Although tafamidis treatment may have certain limitations， it is still a key drug for the treatment of TTR amyloidosis， and the first drug approved for the treatment of ATTR-CM.
