Objective To construct a key technical indicator system for in-hospital treatment and nursing of patients with nuclear radiation injury, and provide a basis for the implementation of such treatment and nursing. Methods The draft of the key technical indicator system for in-hospital treatment and nursing of patients with nuclear radiation injury was determined by literature review, case study, and field investigation. The indicators of the system were determined through two rounds of Delphi consultation and using the precedence chart method. According to the criteria of indicator evaluation, the reliability of expert opinions, and the opinions of the research group, the indicators were refined and evaluated. Results Twenty experts were included for two rounds of consultation via mailed inquiries, with a 100% effective response rate in both rounds. The expert authority coefficients were both 0.945, and the Kendall’s W values were 0.347 and 0.448, respectively (P < 0.05). Following the expert consultations, 1 indicator was deleted, 12 indicators were added, and 6 indicators were modified. The key technical indicator system for in-hospital treatment and nursing of patients with nuclear radiation injury established in this study included 4 first-level indicators, 17 second-level indicators, and 73 third-level indicators. The means of importance assignment for all indicators were > 4.00, and the coefficients of variation were < 0.25. Conclusion The key technical indicator system for in-hospital treatment and nursing of patients with nuclear radiation injury established in this study is scientifically rigorous and practically grounded. The indicators demonstrate strong professional relevance and provide important guidance for in-hospital treatment and nursing of patients with nuclear radiation injury.

Soil cadmium pollution can adversely affect the cultivation of the ornamental plant, Coleus scutellarioides. Upon cadmium contamination of the soil, the growth of C. scutellarioides is impeded, and it may even succumb to the toxic accumulation of cadmium. In this study, we investigated the effects of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) on the adaptation of C. scutellarioides to cadmium stress, by measuring the physiological metabolism and the degree of root damage of C. scutellarioides, with Aspergillus oryzae as the test fungi. The results indicated that cadmium stress increased the activity of superoxide dismutase (SOD), peroxidase (POD), and catalase (CAT), and the content of malondialdehyde (MDA) and proline (Pro) within the cells of C. scutellarioides, but inhibited mycorrhizal infestation rate, root vigour and growth rate to a great degree. With the same cadmium concentration, the inoculation of AMF significantly improved the physiological indexes of C. scutellarioides. The maximum decrease of MDA content was 42.16%, and the content of secondary metabolites rosemarinic acid and anthocyanosides could be increased by up to 27.43% and 25.72%, respectively. Meanwhile, the increase of root vigour was as high as 35.35%, and the DNA damage of the root system was obviously repaired. In conclusion, the inoculation of AMF can promote the accumulation of secondary metabolites, alleviate root damage, and enhance the tolerance to cadmium stress in C. scutellarioides.

Huang Yuanyu, a famous TCM doctor in the Qing Dynasty, believed that the human body's qi system revolves around the spleen and stomach as the pivot, with the liver, heart, lungs, and kidneys as the four major organs, and the circulation is constant. TCM guided therapy regulates qi and blood by regulating the body, heart, and breath, which is in line with this theory. Based on Huang Yuanyu's "pivot movement" theory, this article explored the application of guided therapy in refractory gastroesophageal reflux disease (rGERD). Guided by the "pivot movement" theory, which includes the left path wood fire rising and falling, the right path gold water converging and falling, and the adjustment of the focal point through the mediation of earth and qi, and referring to the guidance movement methods in the Ba Duan Jin and Zhu Bing Yuan Hou Lun, a "pivot guidance method" for rGERD patients is developed, five movements: adjusting the body and heart, turning the waist and benefiting the kidneys, including rubbing the abdomen and regulating the spleen, soothing the liver and bending the knees, and tightening the lungs and reducing reflux. The aim is to promote smooth circulation of qi throughout the body and improve symptoms of gastroesophageal reflux. In clinical practice, guided therapy should be applied under the guidance of a doctor, with slow and gentle movements, attention to regulating breathing, and long-term persistence.

Objective To investigate the molecular mechanism by which salidroside inhibits the proliferation of gastric cancer(GC)cells through upregulation of miR-1343-3p.Methods RNA databases were used to screen for mRNAs associated with tumor proliferation and with miR-1343-3p,and exhibiting significant changes in their expression levels after salidroside treatment of human GC cells.Gene matching and immunoprecipitation of RNA-binding proteins were conducted to analyze the association between miR-1343-3p and SOX18.Immunocytochemistry was performed to determine the localization of SOX18 protein.The effect of salidroside on the proliferation of human GC cells(MGC-803 and AGS)was determined by CCK-8 assay.Human GC cells were divided into a blank control group and low-and high-dose salidroside groups.The expression of miR-1343-3p and SOX18 mRNA was measured by real-time quantitative fluorescence PCR(qPCR).The protein expression of SOX18 was measured by Western blot.GC cells were co-transfected with miR-1343-3p mimic and miR-1343-3p inhibitor,respectively,via LipofectamineTM 2000 liposomes.The expression of miR-1343-3p and SOX18 mRNA was measured by qPCR,and the protein expression of SOX18 was measured by Western blot.Results Through bioinformatic analysis,SOX18 was identified as a downstream target of miR-1343-3p.Gene alignment confirmed the presence of specific binding sites between the two genes,and immunoprecipitation of RNA-binding proteins validated the targeting relationship between them(P<0.05).Immunocytochemistry demonstrated the nuclear localization of SOX18 protein.CCK-8 assay findings demonstrated that salidroside significantly inhibited the proliferation of GC cells in a time-and dose-dependent manner.Compared with the blank control group,salidroside-treated GC cells showed decreased expression of both SOX18 mRNA and protein(P<0.05)and an increased miR-1343-3p expression(P<0.05).Compared with the control group,GC cells in the miR-1343-3p mimic group exhibited increased expression of miR-1343-3p and decreased expression of SOX18 mRNA and protein.In contrast,GC cells in the miR-1343-3p inhibitor group showed decreased expression of miR-1343-3p and increased expression of SOX18 mRNA and protein(all P<0.05).Conclusion Salidroside may inhibit the proliferation of GC cells by regulating the miR-1343-3p/SOX18 signaling axis and these regulators may present new potential therapeutic targets or biomarkers for gastric cancer.

Objective To evaluate the clinical value of a modified Cancer and Aging Research Group(CARG)model in guiding anticancer drug dose adjustments for elderly cancer patients in China.Methods This prospective study enrolled patients aged≥65 years with solid tumors at the Department of Oncology,Peking Union Medical College Hospital from September 1,2022 to October 29,2023.All patients underwent comprehensive geriatric assessment(CGA)and CARG risk scoring,and were stratified into low-,intermediate-,and high-risk groups.Anti-cancer drug doses(including chemotherapy,targeted therapy or immunotherapy)were reduced proportionally based on CARG risk stratification and treatment intent(curative vs.palliative).Treatment outcomes and adverse events(AEs)were recorded regularly.Fisher's Exact Test compared AE incidence between the CARG-guided dose adjust-ment group(experimental)and the physician-experience-guided dose adjustment group(control).Receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve analysis was used to assess the predictive value of the CARG model for severe toxicity.Results Among 166 enrolled patients(median age:71 years[range:65-90];78.3%were male;68.7%had gastro-intestinal cancers;69.3%had stageⅣ),95 were assigned to the experimental group(CARG low-risk:24[25.3%],intermediate-risk:51[53.7%],high-risk:20[21.0%])and 71 were included into the control group.By December 31,2024,81 patients experienced disease progression and 10 patients died.Overall AE rates was 92.6%in the ex-perimental group and 94.4%in the control group,while grade≥3 AEs were recorded in 45.3%vs.43.7%,respec-tively(both P＞0.05).Conclusions The modified CARG model-guided dose adjustment strategy achieved comparable safety to empirical dose adjustment,which is in line with the individualized treatment paradigm for elderly cancer pa-tients,representing a structured framework for optimizing therapeutic decision-making in geriatric oncology.

OBJECTIVE To evaluate the cost-effectiveness of trastuzumab deruxtecan（T-DXd） versus trastuzumab emtansine （T-DM1） in the second-line treatment of HER2-positive metastatic breast cancer， and to provide a basis for the selection of clinical medication regimen and medical and health decisions. METHODS Based on the clinical trial DESTINY-Breast03， a partitioned survival model was constructed， with a cycle of 3 weeks as the simulation of patients’ lifetime. The incremental cost-effectiveness ratio （ICER） was calculated by using quality-adjusted life years （QALY） as output indicators， and sensitivity analysis was used to verify the robustness of the basic analysis results； the cost-effectiveness of the second-line treatment for HER2-positive metastatic breast cancer was compared between T-DXd and T-DM1. RESULTS Under the premise of taking 3 times China’s per capita gross domestic product （GDP） in 2022 as the willingness-to-pay threshold （257 094 yuan/QALY）， the T-DXd group also needed to pay more cost compared with T-DM1 group while obtaining incremental utility （0.69 QALYs）， and the ICER value was 1 850 478.40 yuan/QALY. The results of univariate sensitivity analysis showed that progression-free survival state utility value， T-DXd price， cost discount rate were factors that had a great influence on ICER value， but these parameters could not flip the basic analysis results within a reasonable range. In the probability sensitivity analysis， when the threshold of willingness-to-pay rose to 1 500 400 yuan/QALY， the probability of economic activity was 50% in the T-DXd regimen. The results of the scenario analysis also verified the robustness of the original research results. CONCLUSIONS Under the premise of 3 times China’s per capita GDP as the WTP threshold， compared with T-DM1， T-DXd is not cost-effective in the second-line treatment of HER2-positive metastatic breast cancer.

Objectives:To explore the antitumor effects of redox-responsive nanoparticles containing platinum(Ⅳ)—NP@Pt(Ⅳ) in ovarian cancer.Methods:Redox-responsive polymer carriers were synthesized. Polymer carriers and platinum(Ⅳ)—Pt(Ⅳ) can self-assemble into NP@Pt(Ⅳ). Inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry was performed to detect the platinum release from NP@Pt(Ⅳ) in reducing environment and the platinum content in ovarian cancer cells ES2 treated with cisplatin, Pt(Ⅳ) and NP@Pt(Ⅳ). The proliferation ability of the ovarian cancer cells were detected by 3-(4,5-Dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay. Cellular apoptosis was assessed by flow cytometry. Collection of primary ovarian cancer tissues from patients with primary high-grade serous ovarian cancer who were surgically treated at the Cancer Hospital of the Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences from October to December 2022. The high-grade serous ovarian cancer patient-derived xenograft (PDX) mice were intravenously injected with Cy7.5 labeled NP@Pt(Ⅳ) followed by in vivo imaging system. Mice were treated with PBS, cisplatin and NP@Pt(Ⅳ). Tumor volume and weight were measured in each group. Necrosis, apoptosis and cell proliferation of tumor tissues were detected by hematoxylin-eosin (HE) staining, TUNEL fluorescence staining and Ki-67 immunohistochemistry staining. Body weight and HE staining of heart, liver, spleen, lung and kidney of mice in each group were measured.Results:The platinum release of NP@Pt(Ⅳ) after 48 hours in reducing environment was 76.29%, which was significantly higher than that of 26.82% in non-reducing environment ( P<0.001). The platinum content in ES2 cells after 4 hours and 7 hours of treatment with NP@Pt(Ⅳ) (308.59, 553.15 ng/million cells) were significantly higher than those of Pt(Ⅳ) (100.21, 180.31 ng/million cells) and cisplatin (43.36, 50.36 ng/million cells, P＜0.05). The half inhibitory concentrations of NP@Pt(Ⅳ) in ovarian cancer cells ES2, A2780, A2780DDP were 1.39, 1.42 and 4.62 μmol/L, respectively, which were lower than those of Pt(IV) (2.89, 7.27, and 16.74 μmol/L) and cisplatin (5.21, 11.85, and 71.98 μmol/L). The apoptosis rate of ES2 cells treated with NP@Pt(Ⅳ) was (33.91±3.80)%, which was significantly higher than that of Pt(Ⅳ) [(16.28±2.41)%] and cisplatin [(15.01±1.17)%, P＜0.05]. In high-grade serous ovarian cancer PDX model, targeted accumulation of Cy7.5 labeled NP@Pt(Ⅳ) at tumor tissue could be observed. After the treatment, the tumor volume of mice in NP@Pt(IV) group was (130±98) mm 3, which was significantly lower than those in control group [(1 349±161) mm 3, P<0.001] and cisplatin group [(715±293) mm 3, P=0.026]. The tumor weight of mice in NP@Pt(IV) group was (0.17±0.09)g, which was significantly lower than those in control group [(1.55±0.11)g, P<0.001] and cisplatin group [(0.82±0.38)g, P=0.029]. The areas of tumor necrosis and apoptosis in mice treated with NP@Pt(Ⅳ) were higher than those in mice treated with cisplatin. Immunohistochemical staining revealed that there were low expressions of Ki-67 at tumor tissues of mice treated with NP@Pt(Ⅳ) compared with cisplatin. The change in body weight of mice in NP@Pt(Ⅳ) group was not significantly different from that of the control group [(18.56±2.04)g vs.(20.87±0.79)g, P=0.063]. Moreover, the major organs of the heart, liver, spleen, lung, and kidney were also normal by HE staining. Conclusion:Redox-responsive NP@Pt(Ⅳ), produced in this study can enhance the accumulation of cisplatin in ovarian cancer cells and improve the efficacy of ovarian cancer chemotherapy.

Objective To explore the value of quantitative chest CT in early diagnosis of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease(COPD).Methods The clinical data of 138 cases of COPD high-risk patients in Shanghai community and COPD high-risk respondents in outpatient clinic of Zhongshan Hospital,Fudan University from September 20,2013 to May 20,2014 were retrospectively analyzed.All high-risk participants underwent pulmonary function and chest CT examination at baseline and 1 year later.Chest CT images were imported into quantitative CT analysis software to collect quantitative CT data.These participants were divided into COPD group(n=40)and non-COPD group(n=98)based on their lung functions after 1 year.The differences in baseline lung function and quantitative CT measurements between the two groups were compared.Binary logistic regression was used to analyze the predictors of COPD in high-risk individuals after 1 year of follow-up,and the efficacy of the logistic regression model was evaluated by ROC curve.Results There were no significant differences in gender,body mass index(BMI),the percentage value of forced expiratory volume in 1 second predicted(FEV1%pred),airway wall area ratio(WA%),total airway count(TAC),and airway wall thickness(WT)between the two groups at baseline.Compared to the non-COPD group,the square root of the tracheal wall area at 10 mm from the inner circumference of the airway(Pi10),(3.43[3.30,3.54]vs 3.23[3.15,3.36],P＜0.001),and the percentage area of low attenuation regions below ﹣950 HU(LAA%﹣950),(2.06[0.32,6.29]vs 0.57[0.25,1.89],P=0.015)were significantly higher in the COPD group.The mean lung density(MLD)in the COPD group was lower than that in the non-COPD group([﹣799.89±35.62]vs[﹣783.60±43.52],P=0.038).Binary logistic regression analysis indicated that age and Pi10 were risk factors for COPD(P＜0.05),with an area under the ROC curve of 0.791(95%CI 0.714-0.868).Conclusions In the COPD high-risk population with normal lung function,patients with elevated Pi10 and LAA%﹣950 have a higher incidence of COPD one year later,suggesting that quantitative chest CT measurements such as Pi10 and LAA%﹣950 can assist clinicians in identifying early-stage COPD.

OBJECTIVE: To explore the genetic basis for a rare case with Disorder of sex development. METHODS: Clinical data of the patient was collected. Chromosomal karyotyping, SRY gene testing, whole exome sequencing (WES), low-coverage massively parallel copy number variation sequencing (CNV-seq), fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH), and whole genome sequencing (WGS) were carried out. RESULTS: The patient, a 14-year-old female, had manifested short stature and dysplasia of second sex characteristics. She was found to have a 46,XY karyotype and positive for the SRY gene. No pathogenic variant was found by WES, except a duplication at Yp11.32q12. The result of CNV-seq was 47,XYY. FISH has confirmed mosaicism for a dicentric Y chromosome. A 23.66 Mb duplication on Yp11.32q11.223 and a 5.16 Mb deletion on Yq11.223q11.23 were found by WGS. The breakpoint was mapped at chrY: 23656267. The patient's karyotype was ultimately determined as 46,X,psu idic(Y)(q11.223)/46,X,del(Y)(q11.223). CONCLUSION The combination of multiple methods has facilitated clarification of the genetic etiology in this patient, which has provided a reference for the clinical diagnosis and treatment.

Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) non-drug therapy for gastroesophageal reflux mainly includes appropriate TCM techniques, such as conventional acupuncture, moxibustion, fire needle, etc. Emotional therapy, such as regulating emotion, transforming the patient's spirit and change the state of qi, the five-element music therapy, etc; exercise therapy, such as Baduanjin and Zhanzhuang, can be used alone, or in combination, or in combination with oral administration of Chinese materia medica. By reducing the probability of esophageal sphincter relaxation, inhibiting gastric acid secretion, improving esophageal motility disorder, reducing visceral hypersensitivity, immune regulation and other effects, it can alleviate the symptoms of acid reflux, heartburn and pharyngeal discomfort, and help to improve the patients' anxiety, depression and other negative emotions. It has the characteristics of simplicity and fewer adverse reactions, at the same time, according to the patient's condition and compliance to choose the appropriate therapy. The mechanism of TCM non-drug therapy in the treatment of this disease needs to be further explored, so as to better guide clinical popularization and application.
