Guided by the theory of "fire and original qi are restricted"， it is believed that original qi depletion is the root of the cutaneous immune-related adverse events （cirAEs） related to immune checkpoint inhibitors （ICIs）， and the yin fire exuberance is the branch. Among them， original qi depletion is the internal foundation of the disease， while the drug toxicity of ICIs harming original qi is the initiating factor， and exuberant yin fire is the key pathogenesis. In clinical practice， the general treatment principle advocates banking up original qi to consolidate the root and draining fire to raise yang. Buzhong Yiqi Decoction （补中益气汤） can be used to activate transportation of middle jiao （焦） and promote ascent and dispersion of clear yang， thereby restoring the balance of qi and fire， and medicinals such as Huangqin （Radix Scutellariae）， Huanglian （Rhizoma Coptidis） and Huangbai （Cortex Phellodendri Chinensis） can be supplementetd to clear and drain yin fire. At the same time， considering the accompanying symptoms such as dampness-stasis and fluids depletion， the methods of removing dampness and dispelling stasis， supplementing blood and nourishing yin should be added flexibly. This approach can provide a new perspective and treatment strategy for reducing ICIs-related cirAEs in malignant tumors.

Pulmonary complications， the most common postoperative complications of lung cancer， not only affect the quality of life of the patients after surgery but also increase the prognostic risks of postoperative recurrence and metastasis， threatening the life safety. At present， a multidisciplinary model of diagnosis and rehabilitation with integrated traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） and Western medicine has been initially formed under the guidance of the concept of rapid rehabilitation post operation for lung cancer. However， the treatment that only aims at shortening hospital stay and reducing the incidence of postoperative complications does not pay enough attention to the postoperative functional rehabilitation of the lung and the impact of follow-up adjuvant therapy， which affects the completeness of rehabilitation. This paper classifies the typical postoperative symptoms and manifestations of lung cancer into five groups： Lung system， emotion， digestive tract， pain， and nerve. On this basis， this paper summarizes the three core pathogeneses of postoperative complications of lung cancer as failure of Qi to ascend and descend leading to insecurity of defensive exterior， vessel block leading to Qi stagnation and fluid retention， and lung Qi deficiency leading to spleen and kidney deficiency. Accordingly， this paper proposes the treatment principle of protecting healthy Qi and treating Qi with the core of descending-tonifying-ascending-dispersing Qi and puts forward three treatment methods. The first is replenishing Qi and consolidating exterior， and expelling phlegm and regulating lung. The second is replenishing Qi and promoting blood flow to resolve stasis and relieving pain. The third is replenishing Qi and tonifying lung， and invigorating spleen and tonifying kidney. Furthermore， this paper elaborates on the pathogenesis and treatment principles of four common postoperative complications： Lung infection， pleural effusion， atelectasis， and bronchopleural fistula. On the basis of Western medical treatment， the TCM treatment characteristics of treating symptoms in the acute phase and eradicating the root cause in the chronic phase should be played. While dispelling the pathogen， measures should be taken to protect the healthy Qi， including tonifying lung Qi， regulating spleen Qi， and replenishing kidney Qi. This study summarizes the pathogenesis and treatment strategy of common postoperative complications of lung cancer according to the principle of protecting healthy Qi and treating Qi， aiming to provide guidance for the future treatment of postoperative complications of lung cancer.

ObjectiveTo analyze the impact of diabetes-related deaths on the probability of premature mortality and life expectancy in Minhang District of Shanghai from 2004 to 2023, and to provide reference data for the optimization of targeted prevention and control strategies. MethodsAll death cases involving diabetes among the registered residents of Minhang District from 2004 to 2023 were collected. The probability of premature mortality and life expectancy was computed using the abridged life table method. The average annual percent change (AAPC) was calculated with Joinpoint 4.9.0.0. The Arriaga decomposition method was employed for statistical analyses of the influence of cause-specific and age-specific mortality related to diabetes on life expectancy. ResultsThe total number of diabetes-related mortality, crude mortality, and standardized mortality for both males and females in Minhang District from 2004 to 2023 exhibited an increasing trend (P<0.001). The primary causes of death among diabetes-related cases were cardiovascular disease (37.68%), diabetes mellitus (31.95%), and malignant tumor (17.80%). From 2004 to 2023, probability of premature mortality to diabetes-related diseases demonstrated a rising trend (P<0.001), contrasting with the declining trend observed in the overall population (P=0.001). Males showed a significant upward trajectory (P<0.001), while females displayed a stable pattern. Among the diseases exerting considerable influence, cardiovascular disease and malignant tumor revealed a marked increase over time (P<0.001), whereas diabetes mellitus maintained a stable trend; both factors negatively impacted the reduction in probability of premature mortality. From 2004 to 2023, diabetes-related mortality reduced life expectancy among residents by an average of 1.22 years (-49.89%), indicating a negative impact; the reduction was 1.41 years in males and 0.90 years in females. The age groups exhibiting greater negative contributions differed by genders, namely males aged 50‒54 years and females aged 70‒74 years. Cardiovascular disease, diabetes mellitus, and malignant tumor contributed significantly to this decline (-0.46 years, -0.42 years, -0.20 years, respectively), with male experiencing higher negative contributions than females. ConclusionIn Minhang District, the rising mortality associated with diabetes-related diseases negatively impact both the reduction of the probability of premature mortality and the increase in life expectancy. This trend is primarily attributed to the rapid escalation of mortality and younger age demographic of male residents, which warrants significant attention. It is recommended that, based on the enhancement of case management, efforts should be directed towards the targeted prevention and control of risk factors and high-risk populations.

According to the theory of "toxin accumulation damaging yin"， the accumulation of pathological products and the disruption of homeostasis in the pre-metastatic niche （PMN） of malignant tumors correspond to "toxin accumulation" and "yin damage" respectively. During the dynamic evolution of PMN， the main pathogenesis in the initial stage is healthy qi deficiency and phlegm congestion， obstruction in the ying （营） and wei （卫） level， for which the therapeutic approach is fortifying spleen and warming yang， reinforcing healthy qi， consolidating the root， and assissting in resolving phlegm. In the progression stage， the predominant mechanism is mutual binding of phlegm and stasis， with collateral damage and pathological transformation. Treatment should focus on resolving phlegm and eliminating stasis， using insect-derived medicinals to attack accumulation and block pathological transmission. In the terminal stage， the main pathogenesis involves phlegm-stasis transforming into fire， with depletion of qi and yin， for which it is suggested to replenish qi and nourish yin， combine clearing and tonifying methods to control fire-toxin. After the PMN has formed， pathogenic toxin may flow along the collaterals， tending to lodge in corresponding viscera with functional imbalance and deviation between deficiency and excess， eventually giving rise to malignant tumors. Understanding the pathogenesis of the PMN in the malignant tumors based on the "toxin accumulation damaging yin" theory may provide a valuable perspective for developing traditional Chinese medicine strategies for the prevention and treatment of tumor metastasis.

"Reinforcing earth for generating metal" is based on the treatment principle of the five-element theory of traditional Chinese medicine （TCM）， which states that "reinforcing mother viscera for treating deficiency of child viscera". Based on the principle of inter-generating relationship in the five elements that earth generates metal， by strengthening the functions of the internal organs belonging to "earth" （spleen and stomach） to indirectly nourish the internal organs belonging to "metal" （lungs and large intestine）. Using reinforcing earth for generating metal in the treatment of lung cancer， according to the principle of "reinforcing mother viscera for treating deficiency of child viscera"， by strengthening the function of "earth" viscera， the treatment effect of "metal" viscera can be achieved. The metabolic disorder， inflammatory response， and immune regulation caused by the changes in the composition and structure of intestinal microbiota are involved in the occurrence and development of lung cancer， which is consistent with the theory of “the external and internal relationship between the lung and the large intestine” in TCM. From the perspective of intestinal microbiota microecology， the paper discusses the pathogenesis of "earth disease leads to metal disorders" that the gut microbiota dysbiosis causes lung cancer and the treatment method of "reinforcing earth for generating metal" by regulating the microecological balance of gut microbiota in lung cancer， suggesting the great significance of "reinforcing earth for generating metal" therapy aiming at microecological balance of gut microbiota in the treatment of lung cancer， in order to provide a different perspective for the treatment of lung cancer with TCM.

Radiotherapy can cause functional and morphological changes in the brain tissues of patients with primary or metastatic malignant brain tumors, leading to radiation-induced brain injury. However, the pathogenesis of radiation-induced brain injury has not yet been unanimously determined, and its research advances and treatment protocols are yet to be elucidated and improved. In this study, we explore the pathogenesis of radiation-induced brain injury from the perspective of vascular injury, inflammatory reactions, neuronal dysfunction, glial cell injury, and gut microbiota and reviewed the advances in research on its treatment and prevention. The purpose is to provide a reference and theoretical basis for the research and clinical diagnosis and treatment of radiation-induced brain injury.

Objective:To investigate the effects of sleep disorders (SD) on the radiation injury of hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) in bone marrow (BM).Methods:Totolly 56 C57BL/6J male mice aged 6-8 weeks were enrolled in this study. They were subjected to whole body irradiation of 60Co γ-rays with doses of 5.0 and 7.5 Gy. A SD model was established using a SD device. According to the random number table method, the mice were divided into seven groups: the control group (Con group), the SD group, the mere radiation group (IR group), the group of post-irradiation SD (IR+ SD group), the group of post-irradiation SD treated with phosphate buffer solution (IR+ SD+ PBS group), the group of post-irradiation SD treated with GSK2795039 (IR+ SD+ GSK group), and the group of post-irradiation SD treated with N-acetylcysteine (IR+ SD+ NAC group), with in eight mice each group. The changes in the peripheral blood of the mice after 5.0 Gy irradiation were detected using the collected tail venous blood, and the survival rates of the mice after 7.5 Gy irradiation were observed. The changes in the density and count of bone marrow cells were observed using hematoxylin and eosin (HE) staining. The number of hematopoietic stem cells in bone marrow (LSK cells), as well as their apoptosis level and changes in cell cycle, were detected using flow cytometry. Furthermore, indicators of LSK, such as reactive oxygen species(ROS) and mitochondrial-derived reactive oxygen species (mtROS), were analyzed. Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADP+ /NADPH) and glutathione (GSSG/GSH) were detected using an enzyme microplate reader in order to observe the oxidative stress level of LSK. Furthermore, flow cytometry was employed to sort the LSK cells from the mice, and flow cytometry was used to detect the expression of NADPH oxidase 2(NOX2) and cysteinyl aspartate specific proteinnase-1(Caspase-1), and polymerase chain reaction (PCR) was used to detect the expression of inflammatory factors such as NOX1-4, interleukin 1β (IL-1β), interleukin 6 (IL-6), interleukin 18 (IL-18), and tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α). Results:Compared to the IR group, the IR+ SD group exhibited significantly slower recovery of white blood cells (WBC) and platelets (PLT) ( t = 4.39, 6.37, P < 0.05), the bone marrow cell count decreasing from (2.14 ± 0.38) × 10 7 to (3.59 ± 0.29) × 10 7 ( t = 8.55, P < 0.05), significantly decreased proportion of G 0-phase LSK cells, significantly increased proportion of apoptotic cells ( t = 7.53, 8.21, P < 0.05), and significantly increased DCFH-DA, MitoSOX, and NADP+ /NADPH ( t = 22.99, 29.47, 3.77, P<0.05). In the case of IR, SD further promoted the activation of NOX2 and led to increases in the mRNA expression of downstream inflammatory factors such as IL-1β, IL-6, IL-18, and TNF-α ( t = 6.95, 6.01, 8.39, 4.91, 5.56, P < 0.05). Inhibition of NOX2-ROS could prevent the SD-induced aggravation of post-irradiation hematopoietic injury. This significantly reduced the apoptotic rate of LSK cells and the expression of inflammatory factors, ultimately accelerating the hematopoietic recovery of LSK cells ( t = 9.24, 3.92, P < 0.05). Conclusions:SD can aggravate the IR-induced injury of hematopoietic stem cells in bone marrow, primarily by activating the NOX2-ROS-Caspase-1 axis. This will increase the levels of intracellular inflammatory factors and ROS, promote cell apoptosis, and ultimately inhibit the hematopoietic recovery of bone marrow.

Molecularly defined renal carcinoma is a pathologic subtype of renal cell cancer (RCC) with a definite driver gene, which was first proposed in the 2022 WHO classification of tumors of the urinary system and male reproductive organs. The fumarate hydratase-deficient renal cell carcinoma and SMARCB1-deficient renal medullary carcinoma are highly aggressive and lethal subtypes. Due to the low incidence and lack of research on the mechanism, there is almost no effective treatment for these aggressive RCC subtypes. Cytoreductive nephrectomy or metastasectomy are important methods to improve the survival and quality of life of metastatic RCC patients under effective systemic therapy. However, for the highly aggressive RCC, the clinical value of the above surgical strategies is still unclear. In this review, we will discuss these problems in order to provide reference for the improvement of prognosis for patients with highly aggressive RCC subtypes.

Lung cancer is the malignant tumor with the highest incidence and mortality among the Chinese.Tumor node metastasis(TNM)staging established by the American Joint Committee on Cancer(AJCC)and International Union Against Cancer(UICC)is a commonly used criterion,but it still has limitations in judging the prognosis of non-small cell lung cancer(NSCLC)patients.With the advantages of real-time and convenient sampling,the immune score based on peripheral blood biomarkers have the ability to predict prognosis and efficacy of NSCLC patients,which have been developed and validated in clinical studies.However,clinical impleruentation of peripheral immune scores is still not widely in NSCLC patients.Therefore,this study introduces and evaluates the 6 peripheral immune scores and reviews the reseach progress of them in the treatment of NSCLC.
