Patients with lung cancer experience a heavy symptom burden during the perioperative period, which seriously affects their recovery and quality of life. Traditional symptom management models rely mainly on scheduled ward rounds during hospitalization and outpatient follow-up after discharge. However, they have limitations such as delayed symptom recognition, lack of post-discharge monitoring, and non-quantitative symptom assessment, which often lead to delayed interventions and low patient satisfaction. In recent years, the symptom management model based on electronic patient-reported outcomes (ePRO) has been increasingly valued in clinical practice. Existing high-level evidence from both domestic and international studies indicates that, through proactive monitoring, real-time alerts, and remote interventions, this model enables dynamic and continuous symptom management and helps improve patient recovery and healthcare experience. As a supplement to routine medical care, the ePRO-based symptom management model aims to enhance the quality of care rather than replace existing medical processes. To promote the standardized application of this model in perioperative lung cancer care, this consensus integrates domestic and international evidence. After multiple rounds of voting by more than 50 experts, it formulates 12 consensus statements covering the three core components, symptom monitoring, alerting, and intervention, to provide scientific and practical recommendations for clinical practice.

Objective:To investigate the relationship between work fit, work stress, and occupational fatigue among medical staff, and to analyze the independent and interactive effects of work fit and work stress on occupational fatigue.Methods:A stratified random sampling method was employed to select 1162 employees from two top-tier hospitals as the research subjects. A questionnaire survey was conducted to collect information on basic demographics, work stress, work fit, and occupational fatigue. Chi-square test, analysis of variance, and logistic regression equations were used to evaluate the interactive effects of work fit and work stress on occupational fatigue.Results:This study included 1162 medical Homo sapiens personnel, among whom 884 were job-adapted and 362 were in a stressful state. Univariate logistic regression analysis showed that the risk of occupational fatigue significantly increased in the 40-49 age group ( OR=1.89) and the bachelor's degree group ( OR=2.52, P<0.01). Smoking and alcohol consumption were also associated with a significantly higher risk of occupational fatigue ( P<0.01). In terms of occupational characteristics, compared to clinical doctors, nurses and pharmaceutical/technical Homo sapiens personnel had lower risks ( OR=0.57, 0.43, P<0.05). Compared to high-ranking Homo sapiens personnel, those with no title or junior titles exhibited lower risks ( OR=0.51, 0.43, P<0.05). Working hours exceeding 55 hours per week and night shifts 3-4 times per week significantly increased fatigue risk ( OR=1.94, 1.90, P<0.05). Occupational stress and job discomfort were identified as risk factors for occupational fatigue ( OR=11.94, 3.26, P<0.05). Job adaptation and occupational stress exhibited a multiplicative interaction on physical fatigue after adjusting for confounders[ OR (95% CI) =0.43 (0.22, 0.84) ]. Additionally, job adaptation and occupational stress demonstrated an additive interaction on mental fatigue, with RERI (95% CI) =2.64 (0.11, 5.59), API (95% CI) =0.38 (0.08, 0.67), and SI (95% CI) =1.78 (1.01, 3.14). Medical Homo sapiens personnel in a stressful state had a 7.25-fold higher risk of fatigue compared to those not in a stressful state, while those with job discomfort had a 2.01-fold higher risk compared to those in an adapted state. Conclusion:Occupational stress and job fit have interactive effects on physical fatigue and mental fatigue in medical Homo sapiens personnel. A stressful state combined with job discomfort increases the risk of fatigue occurrence, providing a basis for developing intervention strategies for occupational fatigue among medical Homo sapiens personnel.

Objective:To investigate the impact of immunosuppressive therapy on the severity of SARS-CoV-2 infection and cytokine levels in pediatric patients with kidney diseases.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of 40 hospitalized pediatric patients who were diagnosed with SARS-CoV-2 infection at the 900th Hospital of PLA Joint Logistic Support Force from December 2022 to February 2023. Based on their immunosuppressive status prior to SARS-CoV-2 infection, these patients were categorized into immunosuppressive group and non-immunosuppressive group. Independent sample t-tests, Mann-Whitney U tests, and χ2 test were employed to compare the clinical baseline characteristics and laboratory data, the severity of SARS-CoV-2 infection, and the levels of cytokines between the 2 groups. Results:Among the 40 patients, 11 were in the immunosuppressive group (aged 13 (8, 14) years, 9 males and 2 females) and 29 in the non-immunosuppressive group (aged 2 (1, 4) years, 15 males and 14 females). In the immunosuppressive group, 2 were asymptomatic cases, 8 were mild cases, and 1 was moderate case, and there was no severe or critical cases. In the non-immunosuppressive group, 8 were mild cases, 5 were moderate, 15 were severe cases, 1 was critical case, and no asymptomatic cases. The underlying diseases in the immunosuppressive group included nephrotic syndrome (6 cases), IgA vasculitis nephritis (2 cases), lupus nephritis (1 case), post-renal transplantation (1 case), and renal failure (1 case), with a mean total immunosuppression score (TIS) of (3.6±1.4) points. In the non-immunosuppressive group, 2 patients had a history of epilepsy, and the remaining 27 cases had no underlying conditions, all with TIS scores of 0. Compared to the children in the non-immunosuppressive group, those in the immunosuppressive group were more likely to exhibit asymptomatic or mild infection, with lower risks of severe disease, cytokine storm, fever, and cough, but a higher risk of fatigue ( OR=1.22, 2.66, 0.48, 0.12, 0.12, 0.13, 1.22; 95% CI 0.93-1.62, 0.99-7.15, 0.33-0.70, 0.03-0.57, 0.03-0.57, 0.03-0.65, 0.93-1.62; all P<0.05). The levels of cytokine IL-6, interferon-α and interferon-γ in the immunosuppressive group were all lower than those in the non-immunosuppressive group ( Z=2.23, 2.51, 2.92, respectively; all P<0.05). Conclusion:Pediatric patients with kidney diseases receiving appropriate immunosuppressive therapy may mitigate the severity of SARS-CoV-2 infection by suppressing the expression of cytokines.

Basic & Clinical Medicine 2025;45(7):958-962
Lactate dehydrogenase A(LDHA)is an important enzyme involved in the anaerobic glycolysis of cells,catalyzing the conversion of pyruvate to lactate and participating in processes such as tumor proliferation,mi-gration,invasion,and the regulation of the tumor microenvironment.High expression levels of LDHA are often in-dicative of disease progression and poor prognosis in malignant hematological diseases.The expression of LDHA in malignant hematological diseases is closely associated with various molecules,including HIF-1,microRNAs and c-Myc,as well as signaling pathways like PI3K/AKT/GSK3,USP1/PLK1/LDHA and Fbw7/LDHA/lactate/miR-223.Meanwhile,the progression of malignant hematological conditions facilitated by LDHA primarily occurs through the regulation of energy metabolism via glycolytic pathways.
