The treatment of glioblastoma, the most prevalent malignant tumor in the central nervous system, poses considerable challenges. Glioblastoma multiforme, classified as a grade Ⅳ highly malignant brain glioma by the World Health Organization, is typically managed through a combination of surgery, postoperative chemotherapy, and radiotherapy. The treatment of glioblastoma is complicated by its infiltrative nature, genetic heterogeneity, and presence of the blood-brain barrier. Almost all cases of glioblastoma experience recurrence despite aggressive therapy, exploring the development of updated molecular treatment strategies that can improve overall efficacy. A crucial aspect in modern neurosurgery is the precise delineation of brain regions in terms of their anatomy and function. It serves as the fundamental basis for investigating variations in the distribution of brain gliomas. Hence, this review will elucidate the origin of glioblastomas and analyze the potential factors contributing to the spatially specific distribution of gliomas on the basis of a theoretical framework of brain connectomics research. Molecular characteristics, information pathways, tumor microenvironment landscape, and immunology will inform the analysis. We aim to identify novel biomolecular targets and therapeutic pathways to gain scientific insights for effective glioblastoma treatment.

Objective:
To investigate the change in intestinal flora in Mongolian students with anxiety,so as to provide basis for exploring the relationship between flora and secretion expression in vivo.
Methods:
The Self rating Anxiety Scale(SAS)was used to assess anxiety in medical college students; then a semi structured interview was administered. Fecal samples that met the inclusion criteria were collected and divided into anxiety (SAS score≥50) and control groups (no anxiety, SAS score<50) according to the standard score of SAS. Samples provided by Mongolian female students were selected from each group. The total bacterial DNA was extracted from the fecal samples for PCR amplification and NovaSeq 2x250bp high throughput sequencing was performed for the V3- V4 region of 16S rDNA gene to obtain the biological information of the intestinal flora. The intergroup OTU, structural diversity, significant difference, and LEfSe analyses were performed with information mining of the literature think tanks.
Results:
Anxiety existed in 23.86% of the Mongolian students,and 16.96% of the Han people. A Chi square test showed no significant difference in detection of anxiety between Mongolian and Han college students ( P =0.07). Analysis of the alpha diversity index showed that the Shannon index, Simpson index, Chao1 index, and Observed species did not differed significantly between the two groups( t =8.0, 9.0 ,6.0,6.5). The difference in abundance of some bacteria was significant at the Class, Order, Family, and Genus levels between the two groups( t =-2.26-2.57,-5.08-3.58,-2.65-2.09, P <0.05).
Conclusion
The alpha diversity index showed that there was no significant difference in the abundance and diversity of intestinal flora between the two groups. While there were significant differences at different classification levels, the results suggest that the structure of intestinal flora can change in students with anxiety.

Objective:
To compare the effect of combined therapy using lamivudine (LAM) plus adefovir (ADV) versus telbivudine (LdT) plus adefovir corresponding to the renal function of CHB patients.
Methods:
A total of 120 patients with chronic hepatitis B were enrolled. According to single daily dosing, they were divided into 4 groups: LdT + ADV group (n = 32), ADV+LdT group (n = 28), LAM + ADV group (n = 38) and ADV + LAM group (n = 22). Hepatorenal function, HBV serological markers, HBV DNA quantification, creatine kinase (CK) and other parameters were examined every 3 months. Serum alanine aminotransferase (ALT) normalization rate, undetectable HBV DNA rate, hepatitis B e antigen (HBeAg) seroconversion rate, level of serum creatinine (CR) and estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) were analyzed at baseline time, and at weeks 24 and 52.Stastical data were analyzed by t- test and analysis of variance, count data using χ 2 test.
Results:
There was no statistically significant difference between the four groups in terms of ALT normalization rate, HBeAg seroconversion rate, undetectable HBV DNA rate at 24 and 52 weeks. Compared with baseline, at 24 weeks of treatment, there was no significant change in serum creatinine and eGFR in the 4 groups, but after 52 weeks of treatment, serum creatinine decreased in LdT + ADV and ADV + LdT groups and eGFR increased (P < 0.05); Serum creatinine in ADV and ADV + LAM increased, and eGFR was decreased than before (P < 0.05). After treatment, there was no significant difference in renal function between the four groups at 24 weeks, but at week 52, eGFR increased and serum creatinine decreased in LdT + ADV group compared with LAM + ADV group (P < 0.05); ADV + LdT Compared with ADV + LAM group, eGFR increased and serum creatinine decreased (P < 0.05). At 52 weeks of treatment, 5 patients with mildly impaired renal function in the ADV + LdT group [n = 10, eGFR 60-90 ml·min-1 ·(1.73 m2)-1] returned to normal, and none of the ADV + LAM group (n = 9) returned to normal.
Conclusion
For patients with mild impaired renal function, adding LdT combined with ADV can improve renal function compared to that of LAM plus ADV.
