Neurocritical care involves complex pathophysiological mechanisms, and its incidence is higher, injuries are more severe, and treatment is more challenging in high-altitude environments. This consensus, based on the latest domestic and international evidence-based medical data, establishes a standardized, goal-oriented framework for neurocritical care management applicable in high-altitude regions and nationwide. The consensus was developed following international standards for evidence quality assessment and underwent two rounds of Delphi expert consultation, resulting in 32 recommendation statements covering three parts: management systems, monitoring and assessment, and core strategies. Key updates include: advocating for the establishment of independent neurocritical care units and implementing precise tiered diagnosis and treatment based on the "Five Differences in Critical Care" concept; constructing a "trinity" multimodal brain monitoring system centered on cerebral blood flow, cerebral oxygenation, and brain function, emphasizing routine bedside transcranial Doppler ultrasound, cerebral oximetry, and continuous electroencephalography monitoring; shifting management strategies from mild hypothermia therapy to targeted temperature management, and defining the "446" target management pathway for the supercritical stage; emphasizing the assessment of static and dynamic cerebrovascular autoregulation functions through multimodal methods to achieve individualized optimal mean arterial pressure management; elevating cerebrospinal fluid management goals to the level of "glymphatic system" function maintenance; implementing a multidisciplinary collaborative, whole-process management model focusing on patients' long-term neurological functional outcomes; de-escalation criteria include multidimensional indicators such as recovery of brain structure, restoration of cerebrovascular autoregulation, improvement in cerebrospinal fluid dynamics, and reduction in biomarker levels; and integrating cutting-edge technologies like artificial intelligence into post-critical care management and rehabilitation planning. This consensus systematically integrates the entire process of neurocritical care management, reflecting the modern connotation of goal-oriented, dynamic, and multimodal integration in neurocritical care medicine. It aims to adapt to new trends such as deepening understanding of pathophysiological mechanisms, the integration of medicine and engineering, and the empowerment of artificial intelligence, thereby further advancing the discipline of critical care medicine.

This paper systematically summarizes the practical experience of the 2025 Dingri earthquake emergency medical rescue in Tibet. It analyzes the requirements for earthquake medical rescue under conditions of high-altitude hypoxia, low temperature, and low air pressure. The paper provides a detailed discussion on the strategic layout of earthquake medical rescue at the national level, local government level, and through social participation. It covers the construction of rescue organizational systems, technical systems, material support systems, and information systems. The importance of building rescue teams is emphasized. In high-altitude and cold conditions, rapid response, scientific decision-making, and multi-party collaboration are identified as key elements to enhance rescue efficiency. By optimizing rescue organizational structures, strengthening the development of new equipment, and promoting telemedicine technologies, the precision and effectiveness of medical rescue can be significantly improved, providing important references for future similar disaster rescues.
4.Immunotherapy for small cell lung cancer:progresses and challenges
Chinese Journal of Cancer Biotherapy 2025;32(1):14-23
Small cell lung cancer(SCLC)is the most aggressive type of lung cancer,accounting for approximately 13%to 15%of all lung cancer cases.Although SCLC patients are highly responsive to chemotherapy and radiotherapy at their initial treatment,they are prone to relapse,leading to a low survival rate.Since 2018,with the success of the IMpower133 and CASPIAN trials,SCLC has entered the era of immunotherapy.Chemotherapy combined with immune checkpoint inhibitors(ICIs)has become the standard first-line treatment for extensive-stage SCLC.Meanwhile,immunotherapy has also achieved preliminary success in limited-stage SCLC.Despite some progress in SCLC immunotherapy,the overall survival benefit remains limited.There is a lack of effective predictive biomarkers,and treatment options for relapsed/refractory SCLC are scarce,posing significant challenges to the future of immunotherapy in SCLC.In this article,the latest clinical research on SCLC immunotherapy,both domestically and internationally,is reviewed,different types of immunotherapeutic agents,biomarkers,and novel immunotherapy targets are analyzed,and the combination strategies and future prospects of SCLC immunotherapy are discussed.

Purpose:
The risk stratification of pediatric anaplastic large cell lymphoma (ALCL) has not been standardized. In this study, new risk factors were included to establish a new risk stratification system for ALCL, and its feasibility in clinical practice was explored.
Materials and Methods:
On the basis of the non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma Berlin–Frankfurt–Munster 95 (NHL-BFM-95) protocol, patients with minimal disseminated disease (MDD), high-risk tumor site (multiple bone, skin, liver, and lung involvement), and small cell/lymphohistiocytic (SC/LH) pathological subtype were enrolled in risk stratification. Patients were treated with a modified NHL-BFM-95 protocol combined with an anaplastic lymphoma kinase inhibitor or vinblastine (VBL).
Results:
A total of 136 patients were enrolled in this study. The median age was 8.8 years. The 3-year event-free survival (EFS) and overall survival of the entire cohort were 77.7% (95% confidence interval [CI], 69.0% to 83.9%) and 92.3% (95% CI, 86.1% to 95.8%), respectively. The 3-year EFS rates of low-risk group (R1), intermediate-risk group (R2), and high-risk group (R3) patients were 100%, 89.5% (95% CI, 76.5% to 95.5%), and 67.9% (95% CI, 55.4% to 77.6%), respectively. The prognosis of patients with MDD (+), stage IV cancer, SC/LH lymphoma, and high-risk sites was poor, and the 3-year EFS rates were 45.3% (95% CI, 68.6% to 19.0%), 65.7% (95% CI, 47.6% to 78.9%), 55.7% (95% CI, 26.2% to 77.5%), and 70.7% (95% CI, 48.6% to 84.6%), respectively. At the end of follow-up, one of the five patients who received maintenance therapy with VBL relapsed, and seven patients receiving anaplastic lymphoma kinase inhibitor maintenance therapy did not experience relapse.
Conclusion
This study has confirmed the poor prognostic of MDD (+), high-risk site and SC/LH, but patients with SC/LH lymphoma and MDD (+) at diagnosis still need to receive better treatment (ClinicalTrials.gov number, NCT03971305).

Objective:To investigate the iodine nutritional status, prevalence and distribution characteristics of thyroid nodules among children and adolescents in Jurong City, Jiangsu Province, and study the risk factors for thyroid nodules in children and adolescents.Methods:In 2021, a cluster sampling method was used to select one primary and one secondary school in the urban and rural areas of Jurong City, ≥150 children and adolescents were selected as survey respondents from each school on a class-by-class basis, including third-grade children in primary schools and seventh-grade adolescents in secondary schools. The basic information and mental health status of survey respondents were collected by basic information questionnaires and Children's Anxiety Related Emotional Disorders Screening Form (SCARED). Water samples were collected from schools where survey respondents were enrolled and from townships where schools were located, and the iodine content in the water were tested. At the same time, household salt and urine samples from survey respondents were collected to test the salt iodine and urine iodine. Thyroid volume and thyroid nodules were measured using B-ultrasound method to analyze goiter (swelling of the thyroid gland) and thyroid nodules. The Cochran-Armitage trend test method was applied for trend analysis, and a multivariate logistic regression model was used to analyze the risk factors for thyroid nodules.Results:A total of 710 children and adolescents (370 males and 340 females) were surveyed, including 347 children (169 males and 178 females) and 363 adolescents (201 males and 162 females). A total of 14 water samples were collected, with an iodine content range of 8.98 to 10.82 μg/L and a median iodine content of 9.98 μg/L. A total of 710 edible salt samples were tested, with a salt iodine content of (20.94 ± 1.94) mg/kg, an iodine salt coverage rate of 100.00%, and a qualified iodine salt consumption rate of 97.46% (692/710). A total of 710 urine samples were tested, with a median urine iodine of 288.13 μg/L, median urinary iodine for boys and girls was 310.29 and 245.12 μg/L, respectively, and the difference between the two was statistically significant ( Z = - 5.91, P < 0.001). A total of 710 children and adolescents were tested by B-ultrasound, and the detection rate of goiter and thyroid nodules was 2.25% (16/710) and 25.07% (178/710). There was no significant upward trend in the detection rate of thyroid nodules with age (χ 2trend = 0.45, P = 0.651). The detection rates of thyroid nodules in boys and girls were 20.00% (74/370) and 30.59% (104/340), respectively, and the difference between the two was statistically significant (χ 2 = 10.57, P < 0.001). Multivariate logistic regression analysis indicated that female students who participated in extracurricular tutoring/interest classes in the past month were two influencing factors for thyroid nodules in children and adolescents ( OR = 1.76, 1.54, 95% CI: 1.25 - 2.49, 1.09 - 2.17, P < 0.05). Conclusions:The iodized salt coverage rate, qualified iodized salt consumption rate, and goiter rate in children and adolescents in Jurong City have all reached the elimination standard for iodine deficiency disorders, and their iodine nutrition is at a super-appropriate level. However, the external environment of Jurong City is still iodine-deficient. The detection rate of thyroid nodules in children and adolescents is at a high level. Female students and those who have participated in extracurricular tutoring/interest classes in the past month are risk factors for thyroid nodules in children and adolescents.

Objective:To investigate the correlation of antinuclear antibody (ANA) with clinical response to infliximab (IFX) in patients with Crohn′s disease (CD) .Methods:Patients who were diagnosed as CD and treated with IFX in Nanjing Drum Tower Hospital from January 2018 to September 2021 were retrospectively studied. The correlation analysis was used to explore the correlation between ANA and clinical response. These patients were divided into two groups according to the ANA titer after 25 weeks of IFX treatment. The differences in clinical data between the two groups were assessed by univariate analysis. The variables with P<0.15 in univariate analysis and having clinical significance were further analyzed by multivariate Logistic regression to determine the independent risk factors of the induction of ANA. Results:A total of 82 patients with CD were included. Forty-one (50.0%) patients were set as positive group, and 41 (50.0%) patients were set as negative group. In terms of clinical response, the clinical response rates of two groups were 68.3% and 41.5%, and the difference was significant (χ 2 = 5.959, P = 0.015) . Positive group was divided into 1∶100 subgroup ( n = 17) , 1∶320 subgroup ( n = 11) and ≥1∶1000 subgroup ( n = 13) . The clinical response rates of three groups were 41.2%, 45.5% and 7.7% respectively, and the difference was not statistically significant (χ 2 = 5.334, P = 0.084) . The incidences of adverse events in the two groups were 17.1% and 7.3%, and the difference was not significant (χ 2 = 1.822, P = 0.177) . Univariate analysis showed that the difference of total protein (TP) before IFX treatment between the positive group and negative group was statistically significant ( P<0.05) . Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that age ( OR = 1.060, 95% CI: 1.015 ~ 1.107, P = 0.008) and the baseline TP ( OR = 1.110, 95% CI: 1.023 ~ 1.205, P = 0.012) were the independent risk factors for the induction of ANA. Conclusions:The formation of ANA may affect the clinical response of IFX, so the ANA titer should be monitored regularly during the IFX therapy. In addition, age and baseline TP are related to the formation of ANA.

Objective:This study aimed to investigate the effect of tumor lysis syndrome (TLS) on the prognosis of children and adolescents with intermediate- or high-risk high-grade mature B-cell nonHodgkin lymphoma (HG B-NHL) .Methods:This study collected the clinical data and prognosis of 283 patients aged <18 years with newly diagnosed intermediate- or high-risk HG B-NHL treated at the Sun Yat-sen University Cancer Center from January 2010 to December 2022. The clinical characteristics, laboratory indicators during TLS, and prognosis of the patients were analyzed. The optimal cutoff values of laboratory indicators during TLS were identified using R studio according to event-free survival (EFS) .Results:Of the 283 patients enrolled, the median age was 7 (range: 1-18) years and the male-to-female ratio was 3.6∶1, 76 (26.9%) developed TLS, and 207 (73.1%) did not. Patients with TLS demonstrated higher proportions of the pathological subtype Burkitt lymphoma, high-risk stratification, age <12 years, and LDH of ≥1 000 IU/L compared with patients without TLS (all P<0.05). The 5-year EFS and overall survival (OS) rates of the entire group were (84.5±2.2) % and (88.2±2.0) %, respectively. The 5-year OS rate of patients with TLS was significantly lower than that of those without TLS [ (80.8±4.6) % vs (91.0±2.0) %, P=0.01]. Among patients with TLS, those with serum uric acid of ≤612.7 μmol/L ( n=36) exhibited lower 5-year EFS [ (67.8±8.1) % vs (87.5±5.2) %, P=0.04] and OS rates [ (69.9±8.1) % vs (90.0±4.7) %, P=0.04] compared with those with uric acid of >612.7 μmol/L ( n=40). Similarly, patients with serum phosphate of ≤1.89 mmol/L ( n=58) demonstrated lower 5-year EFS [ (71.6±6.0) % vs 100%, P=0.02] and OS rates [ (74.8±5.8) % vs 100%, P=0.03] compared with those with phosphate of >1.89 mmol/L ( n=18) . Conclusions:TLS is associated with poor prognosis in patients with HG B-NHL. Patients with lower serum uric acid and phosphate levels during TLS demonstrated worse prognoses, indicating their potential value in predicting prognosis and guiding stratified treatment.
