ObjectiveTo investigate the clinical features and outcomes of recompensation in patients with autoimmune hepatitis （AIH）-related decompensated cirrhosis， to identify independent predictive factors， and to construct a nomogram prediction model for the probability of recompensation. MethodsA retrospective cohort study was conducted among the adult patients with AIH-related decompensated cirrhosis who were admitted to The Fifth Medical Center of PLA General Hospital from January 2015 to August 2023 （n=211）. The primary endpoint was achievement of recompensation， and the secondary endpoint was liver-related death or liver transplantation. According to the outcome of the patients at the end of the follow-up， the patients were divided into the recompensation group （n=16） and the persistent decompensation group（n=150）.The independent-samples t test was used for comparison of normally distributed continuous data with homogeneity of variance， and the Mann-Whitney U rank sum test was used for comparison of non-normally distributed continuous data with heterogeneity of variance； the chi-square test or the Fisher’s exact test was used for comparison of categorical data between groups； the Kaplan-Meier method was used for survival analysis； the Cox proportional-hazards regression model was used to identify independent predictive factors， and a nomogram model was constructed and validated. ResultsA total of 211 patients were enrolled， with a median age of 55.0 years and a median follow-up time of 44.0 months， and female patients accounted for 87.2%. Among the 211 patients， 61 （with a cumulative proportion of 35.5%） achieved recompensation. Compared with the persistent decompensation group， the recompensation group had significantly higher white blood cell count， platelet count （PLT）， total bilirubin （TBil）， alanine aminotransferase （ALT）， aspartate aminotransferase （AST）， total bile acid， prothrombin time， international normalized ratio （INR）， SMA positive rate， Model for End-Stage Liver Disease （MELD） score， Child-Pugh score， and rate of use of glucocorticoids （all P0.05）， as well as significantly lower age at baseline， number of complications， and death/liver transplantation rate （all P0.05）. At 3 and 12 months after treatment， the recompensation group had continuous improvements in AST， TBil， INR， IgG， MELD score， and Child-Pugh score， which were significantly lower than the values in the persistent decompensation group （all P0.05）， alongside with continuous increases in PLT and albumin， which were significantly higher than the values in the persistent decompensation group （P0.05）. The multivariate Cox regression analysis showed that baseline ALT （hazard ratio ［HR］=1.067， 95% confidence interval ［CI］： 1.010 — 1.127， P=0.021）， IgG （HR=0.463，95%CI：0.258 — 0.833， P=0.010）， SMA positivity （HR=3.122，95%CI：1.768 — 5.515， P0.001）， and glucocorticoid therapy （HR=20.651，95%CI：8.744 — 48.770， P0.001） were independent predictive factors for recompensation， and the nomogram model based on these predictive factors showed excellent predictive performance （C-index=0.87，95%CI：0.84 — 0.90）. ConclusionAchieving recompensation significantly improves clinical outcomes in patients with AIH-related decompensated cirrhosis. Baseline SMA positivity， a high level of ALT， a low level of IgG， and corticosteroid therapy are independent predictive factors for recompensation. The predictive model constructed based on these factors can provide a basis for decision-making in individualized clinical management.

BACKGROUND: Lung cancer is currently the most prevalent malignancy and the leading cause of cancer deaths worldwide. Although the early stage non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) presents a relatively good prognosis, a considerable number of lung cancer cases are still detected and diagnosed at locally advanced or late stages. Surgical treatment combined with perioperative multimodality treatment is the mainstay of treatment for locally advanced NSCLC and has been shown to improve patient survival. Following the standard methods of neoadjuvant therapy, perioperative management, postoperative adjuvant therapy, and other therapeutic strategies are important for improving patients' prognosis and quality of life. However, controversies remain over the perioperative management of NSCLC and presently consensus and standardized guidelines are lacking for addressing critical clinical issues in multimodality treatment. METHODS: The working group consisted of 125 multidisciplinary experts from thoracic surgery, medical oncology, radiotherapy, epidemiology, and psychology. This guideline was developed using the Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development, and Evaluation (GRADE) system. The clinical questions were collected and selected based on preliminary open-ended questionnaires and subsequent discussions during the Guideline Working Group meetings. PubMed, Web of Science, Cochrane Library, Scopus, and China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI) were searched for available evidence. The GRADE system was used to evaluate the quality of evidence and grade the strengths of recommendations. Finally, the recommendations were developed through a structured consensus-building process. RESULTS: The Guideline Development Group initially collected a total of 62 important clinical questions. After a series of consensus-building conferences, 24 clinical questions were identified and corresponding recommendations were ultimately developed, focusing on neoadjuvant therapy, perioperative management, adjuvant therapy, postoperative psychological rehabilitation, prognosis assement, and follow-up protocols for NSCLC. CONCLUSIONS This guideline puts forward reasonable recommendations focusing on neoadjuvant therapy, perioperative management, adjuvant therapy, postoperative psychological rehabilitation, prognosis assessment, and follow-up protocol of NSCLC. It standardizes perioperative multimodality treatment and provides guidance for clinical practice among thoracic surgeons, medical oncologists, and radiotherapists, aiming to reduce postoperative recurrence, improve patient survival, accelerate recovery, and minimize postoperative complications such as atelectasis.

Objective:To explore the epidemiology and clinical characteristics of hospitalized patients with acute poisoning at the First Affiliated Hospital of Nanchang University in Jiangxi Province.Methods:Based on the electronic medical records management platform of the First Affiliated Hospital of Nanchang University, a retrospective analysis was conducted on hospitalized patients with acute poisoning based on ICD-10 disease codes from 2014 to 2021. The gender, age, residence, poison type, etiology, route of exposure, illness severity, diagnostic and therapeutic processes, hospital stay duration, and prognosis of patients were collected.Results:A total of 1 953 cases of acute poisoning were included, comprising 871 males (44.6%) and 1 082 females (55.4%). The age was (42.7±20.0) years, with 113 fatalities (5.8%). Urban residents accounted for 706 cases (36.1%) and rural residents for 1 247 cases (63.9%). The highest incidence occurred in the 41-60 age group. Suicide was the primary cause, constituting 1 318 cases (67.5%), followed by accidental ingestion or contact, with overdose being less frequent. Oral poison way was the predominant route (1 681 cases, 86.1%), followed by inhalation and contact. Pesticide poisoning was the predominant type of poisoning in this study, with 847 cases (43.4%), followed by drug poisoning and foodborne poisoning. Pesticide poisoning predominated among rural residents (79.2%), while drug poisoning was more prevalent among urban residents (53.5%).Conclusions:In this study, patients with acute poisoning exhibited predominantly female gender, hailed from rural areas, and primary etiology of poisoning was pesticide ingestion for suicidal intent. Targeted education and control measures should be carried out for the above high-risk areas, populations and poisons.

Objective:To investigate the correlation of serum visfatin and resistin levels with cardiometabolic index (CMI) and bone mineral density (BMD) in elderly patients with essential hypertension (EH) complicated with osteoporosis (OP) .Methods:From Feb. 2021 to Feb. 2023, 120 elderly patients with EH complicated with OP in Department of Cardiovascular Medicine, Hangzhou Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine were chosen (the EH complicated with OP group), and 50 healthy physical examination subjects (the NC group) and 50 EH complicated with low bone mass (the EH complicated with low bone mass group) were chosen as the control. Venous blood samples were collected from all patients, serum visfatin and resistin levels were measured, and CMI and BMD were tested. Statistical methods were used to analyze the data.Results:In EH patients with decreased bone mass or OP, the level of serum visfatin was often low, but resistin was elevated, which showed significant differences compared with that in the NC group ( F visfatin = 26.02, F resistin = 9.50, P < 0.001). The CMI in NC group was lower than that in the other two groups ( F = 52.54, P < 0.001). In terms of bone mass, BMD in NC group was higher than that in the other two groups, especially in the key parts of lumbar spine ( F=21.44, P < 0.001), femoral neck ( F=10.54, P < 0.001), Chinese triangle ( F=12.30, P < 0.001) and femoral trochanter ( F=4.87, P < 0.001), etc. BMD in EH complicated with low bone mass was also higher than that in EH complicated with OP group, including lumbar spine ( t=4.60, P < 0.001), femoral neck ( t=2.32, P=0.022), Chinese triangle ( t=4.58, P < 0.001) and femoral trochoid ( t=4.33, P < 0.001). In addition, visfatin was positively correlated with bone mass ( P < 0.05), lumbar spine ( r=0.36, P < 0.001), femoral neck ( r=0.38, P < 0.001), Chinese triangle ( r=0.28, P=0.020) and femoral trochoid ( r=0.37, P < 0.001), while resistin was negatively correlated with bone mass, lumbar spine ( r=-0.40, P < 0.001), femoral neck ( r=-0.50, P < 0.001), and femoral trochanter ( r=-0.40, P < 0.001). However, there was no significant correlation between CMI and visfatin ( r=0.06, P > 0.05) and resistin ( r=0.11, P > 0.05). Logistic analysis showed that visfatin level was a risk factor of OP in EH patients ( P < 0.001), and resistin was a protective factor ( P = 0.008) . Conclusion:Serum visfatin and resistin levels in elderly EH patients complicated with OP are correlated with BMD, suggesting that they may play an important role in disease development and treatment.

Background::Breast cancer is ranked among the most prevalent malignancies in the Chinese female population. However, comprehensive reports detailing the latest epidemiological data and attributable disease burden have not been extensively documented.Methods::In 2018, high-quality cancer surveillance data were recorded in 700 population-based cancer registries in China. We extracted data on female breast cancers (International Classification of Diseases, Tenth Revision [ICD-10]: C50) and estimated the incidence and mortality in 2022 according to the baseline data and corresponding trends from 2010 to 2018. Pathological types were classified according to the ICD for Oncology, 3rd Edition codes. Disability-adjusted life years (DALYs) were calculated as the sum of the years of life lost (YLLs) and years lived with disability (YLDs).Results::In 2022, approximately 357,200 new female breast cancer cases and 75,000 deaths occurred in China, accounting for 15.59% and 7.94% of total new cancer cases and deaths, respectively. The age-standardized incidence rate (ASIR) was 33.04 per 100,000. When analyzed by pathological type, the ASIRs for papillary neoplasms, invasive breast carcinoma, rare and salivary gland-type tumors, and other types were 1.13, 29.79, 0.24, and 1.88 per 100,000, respectively. The age-standardized mortality rate (ASMR) was 6.10 per 100,000. A total of 2,628,000 DALYs were found to be attributable to female breast cancer in China, comprising 2,278,300 YLLs and 349,700 YLDs. The ASIR, ASMR, and age-standardized rate (ASR) for DALYs in urban areas were consistently higher than those in rural areas. We observed a four-fold increase in the ASIR and ASR for DALYs and an eight-fold increase in the ASMR among females over 55 years compared with those aged under 55 years.Conclusion::These data provide invaluable insights into the latest epidemiology of female breast cancer in China and highlight the urgency for disease prevention and control strategy formulation.

Objective To analyze the correlation of interferon-induced protein with tetratricopeptide repeats 1(IFIT1)with immune infiltration and prognosis of ovarian cancer(OC).Methods GEO database was employed to select the tumor immune related genes,and Kaplan-Meier and Prognoscan databases were used to identify the genes significantly associated with OC prognosis.The differential expression of IFIT1 between OC tissue and normal tissue were confirmed with GEPIA,Human Protein Atlas,and Timer databases.The expression level of IFIT1 in OC tissues with different grades and stages were analyzed in the UALCAN database.In addition,based on David database,GO enrichment analysis was used to analyze the interacting genes and proteins of IFIT1 in the String and Genemania databases.Timer and Tisidb databases verified the correlation between IFIT1 and immune cells mutually.Finally,after IFIT1 knockdown xenograft model was constructed based on lentiviral vector of IFIT1 shRNA,the tumor growth was observed in the transplanted nude mice,and infiltration of neutrophils was observed with immunohistochemical assay.Results FIT1,a tumor immune gene,selected from the GEO database,Kaplan-Meier and Prognoscan databases,was negatively correlated with the OC prognosis.GEPIA,Human Protein Atlas,Timer database,and UALCAN database indicated that the expression level of IFIT1 was significantly higher in the OC tissues than the normal ovarian tissues,and had no obvious correlation with tumor stage and grade.Analysis in String,Genemania,and David database found the interaction genes and proteins of IFIT1 were enriched in activation of 2'-5'oligonucleotide synthase,virus defense,and innate immunity,and other processes.The Timer database presented that IFIT1 was positively correlated with the infiltration of CD8+T cells,B cells,dendritic cells,neutrophils,and macrophage in OC,with neutrophils having the most significant correlation.Tisidb and GSCA also confirmed the positive correlation between IFIT1 and neutrophil infiltration in OC(P＜0.05).RT-qPCR and Western blotting confirmed that IFIT1 knockdown resulted in suppressed tumor growth in OC cells xenograft nude mice(P＜0.05)and reduced neutrophil infiltration in the xenograft tissues.Conclusion IFIT1 may influence the malignant progression of OC by promoting neutrophil infiltration.

Objective To explore the safety and feasibility of the application of day surgery management model under enhanced recovery after surgery(ERAS)concept in patients undergoing gynecologic laparoscopic surgery.Methods A non-randomized concurrent control trial was conducted on the patients who underwent laparoscopic surgery in our department from January to August 2021.A total of 92 patients admitted on odd date were assigned into Ward B of our department and served as the control group,and another 96 patients hospitalized on even date were subjected into Ward A and served as the observation group.The control group was given the routine treatment schedule,including the relevant examinations after admission and general operation procedure during hospitalization.The observation group was under a day surgery management model based on the concept of ERAS,with aid of a day surgery team and optimized perioperative management measures,including pre-hospital rehabilitation,shortening water fasting before surgery,multi-mode analgesia,preventive antiemesis,intraoperative warmth,prevention of deep vein thrombosis,immediate postoperative eating and activity,and follow-up after discharge.Postoperative subjective comfort,intestinal function recovery,social and economic benefits,postoperative complications and inflammatory indicators were compared between the 2 groups.Results In 0～6,7～12 and 13～24 h after operation,the scores of thirst,hunger,nausea,pain,abdominal distension and pharyngeal discomfort were significantly lower in the observation group than the control group(P＜0.01).The observation group had obviously shorter length of hospital stay and ealier bowel sound recovery and first anal exhaust than the control group(P＜0.01).No postoperative complication,such as fall,unplanned secondary operation or wound infection was observed in both groups.The postoperative inflammatory indicators,including procalcitonin(PCT),neutrophil percentage(Neu％)and white blood cell count(WBC)were all in the normal ranges in the 2 groups at 24 h and 3 and 7 d after surgery.Statistical differences were found in firstly postoperative mobilization,length of hospital stay,hospitalization cost and patient satisfaction between the 2 groups(P＜0.01).Conclusion ERAS-based day surgery management model has the advantages of shortening hospital stay,reducing medical costs,promoting postoperative rehabilitation,and improving the comfort and satisfaction in patients undergoing gynecologic laparoscopic surgery.

BACKGROUND:In addition to apoptosis,recent studies have discovered novel forms of programmed cell death in periprosthetic osteolysis,which is involved in regulating local chronic inflammation and the outcome of osteoblast and osteoclast under pathological conditions.This has an important value for the treatment and prognosis of periprosthetic osteolysis. OBJECTIVE:To provide new ideas and strategies for the prevention and treatment of periprosthetic osteolysis by summarizing studies on the novel forms of programmed cell death. METHODS:The first author used the computer to search the articles published from 2005 to 2022.Chinese search terms"wear particles,periprosthetic osteolysis,programmed cell death,apoptosis,autophagy,pyroptosis,necrotizing apoptosis,iron death"were used to search the databases of CNKI,WanFang and VIP.English search terms"osteolysis,wear debris,wear particles,peri*prosthetic osteolysis,PPOL,aseptic loosening,autophagy,regulated cell death,programmed cell death,apoptosis,pyroptosis,autophagic cell death,autophagy,necroptosis,ferroptosis"were used for search in PubMed and Web of Science databases.A total of 68 articles were finally included according to the inclusion criteria. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)Inadequate or excessive activation of autophagy can cause cell death,inhibit bone formation,and promote bone resorption,leading to bone metabolism disorders and osteolysis.(2)Recent studies have paid close attention to pyroptosis in periprosthetic osteolysis,where the Nod-like receptor,pyrin containing 3 inflammasome plays an important role in local inflammation.Inhibiting pyroptosis can effectively alleviate osteolysis.(3)In vitro studies have shown that necroptosis can inhibit the formation and function of osteoblasts and osteoclasts,affecting the process of osteolysis and destruction.(4)Ferroptosis is the newest form of programmed cell death,which is regulated by complex signaling pathways and mechanisms,but is not yet fully understood.(5)Autophagy,pyroptosis,necroptosis,and ferroptosis play important roles in the development of periprosthetic osteolysis,and their associated signaling pathways and genes require further investigation.
