[摘 要] 目的：系统评价CD19 CAR-T细胞免疫疗法对比标准治疗在复发/难治性弥漫性大B细胞淋巴瘤（R/R DLBCL）患者中疗效与安全性，通过探索性分析探索不同CAR-T细胞产品对疗效的潜在影响，为临床治疗决策提供循证参考。方法：计算机检索中国知网、万方数据库、维普期刊数据库、中国生物医学文献数据库、PubMed、Embase和Cochrane Library数据库，搜集CD19 CAR-T细胞疗法对比标准治疗用于R/R DLBCL的随机对照试验（RCT），检索时限均为建库至2025年10月25日。由2位研究者独立进行文献筛选、数据提取和质量评价，采用R4.2.2软件进行Meta分析。结果：共纳入2项Ⅲ期RCT研究（ZUMA-7、TRANSFORM），各结局指标均根据异质性检验结果选择固定效应模型合并数据。疗效方面，CD19 CAR-T细胞疗法可显著改善患者无事件生存期（HR=0.455，95%CI：0.363~0.570，P < 0.001）和降低死亡风险（HR = 0.738，95%CI：0.575~0.947，P = 0.017）；同时可显著提高完全缓解率（RR = 1.879，95%CI：1.574~2.242，P < 0.001）。按产品类型的探索性分析显示，liso-cel和axi-cel均优于标准治疗（liso-cel：HR = 0.380，95%CI：0.260~0.540，P < 0.001；axi-cel：HR = 0.510，95%CI：0.380~0.680，P < 0.001），但该分析为不同试验间的对比，证据等级有限。安全性结局显示：CAR-T细胞疗法的免疫效应细胞相关神经毒性综合征（ICANS）发生率显著升高（RR = 22.387，95%CI：4.353~115.132，P < 0.001）；≥3级细胞因子释放综合征（CRS）发生率数值升高（RR = 8.181，95%CI：0.935~71.574，P = 0.058），差异无统计学意义。纳入研究的偏倚风险整体为低；敏感性分析证实结果稳健。结论：基于2项RCT的Meta分析结果，CD19 CAR-T细胞（liso-cel/axi-cel）可作为R/R DLBCL二线治疗的选择之一，其疗效优于标准治疗，且特征性不良反应（CRS/ICANS）经规范管理后可控，可根据患者基线状态个体化选择CAR-T细胞产品。本研究证据基础薄弱，上述结论尚需更多高质量、大样本RCT验证。

Objective: To systematically evaluate the clinical efficacy of topical preparations of Mongolian medicine Manggari hot compress therapy (hereafter referred to as Manggari hot compress therapy) in treating cervical spondylotic radiculopathy (CSR) and explore the possible pharmacological material basis in the formula, providing evidence for the clinical application of Mongolian medicine in the treatment of CSR. Methods: The clinical trial employed a randomized, controlled, open-label, and outcome-assessor-blinded design. The CSR patients who were treated at the Department of Traditional Therapeutics Outpatient Clinic, Xilinguole Meng Mongolian General Hospital between July 1, 2024 and August 31, 2025, were enrolled. They were randomly assigned to three groups: an oral control group (administration of oral administration of mecobalamin tablets combined with cervical electric traction), an experimental group (Manggari external hot compress), and a patch control group (flurbiprofen gel plaster). The intervention lasted two weeks. Before and after treatment, the following subjective indicators were recorded: Mongolian Medicine Syndrome (MMS) score, Visual Analog Scale (VAS) score, Northwick Park Neck Pain Questionnaire (NPQ) score, and tongue morphology. Serum levels of inflammatory markers [tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α, interleukin (IL)-6, and IL-1β)] and oxidative stress markers [malondialdehyde (MDA) content, superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity, and glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px) activity] were measured using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Overall therapeutic efficacy was evaluated. One month after treatment completion, a follow-up assessment was conducted, and the MMS, VAS, and NPQ scores were recorded again for all patients. For the pharmacological substance exploration, ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography-Q-exactive orbitrap-mass (UHPLC-QE-MS) was employed to analyze blood-absorbed prototype components of Manggari, under both positive and negative ion modes. The targeting relationship between the core active compounds and the target protein was validated using molecular docking. Results: This study ultimately included 90 patients with CSR for analysis. Baseline characteristics showed no statistically significant differences among the three groups (P > 0.05). (i) Symptom scores. After treatment, the MMS, VAS, and NPQ scores decreased significantly from baseline in all three groups (P < 0.001). At follow-up, there was no significant difference in MMS, VAS, and NPQ scores of the experimental group compared with those at the end of the treatment (P > 0.05). After treatment, the experimental group showed significantly greater reductions in MMS, VAS, and NPQ scores than oral control and patch control groups (P < 0.001). At follow-up, these differences remained significant (P < 0.001). (ii) Inflammatory and oxidative stress markers. After treatment, serum levels of TNF-α, IL-6, and IL-1β, and MDA activity decreased significantly from baseline in all three groups (P < 0.001), and SOD content and GSH-Px activity increased significantly from baseline (P < 0.05). After treatment, the experimental group had significantly lower serum levels of TNF-α, IL-6, and IL-1β than oral and patch control groups. Additionally, it exhibited lower MDA activity and higher SOD content and GSH-Px activity compared with the two control groups. (P < 0.05). (iii) Overall efficacy. The total effective rate was 93.33% in the experimental group, 86.66% in the oral control group, and 83.33% in the patch control group. (iv) Pharmacological substance analysis. A total of 152 compounds were identified in the blood-absorbed components of Manggari. Among them, the core compounds—4-hydroxycoumarin, N-methylanthranilic acid, genistein, and ginsenoside-Rk1—showed binding energies to the key target proteins TNF-α and IL-1β range from − 4.7 to − 7.1 kcal/mol, with the majority of the binding energies being below − 5.0 kcal/mol, suggesting that it generally has a good binding affinity. Conclusion Mongolian medicine hot compress therapy effectively modulates inflammatory and oxidative stress responses through the combined action of its thermal effects and active pharmaceutical ingredients Manggari. It inhibits cervical nerve root inflammation and alleviates radicular pain, improving clinical symptoms, reducing pain severity, and alleviating neck functional disability.

Methods Patients who underwent single-port thoracoscopic assisted anterior mediastinal tumor resection through the xiphoid process at the Department of Thoracic Surgery, West China Hospital, Sichuan University from May to June 2024 were included, and their clinical data were analyzed. Results A total of 7 patients were included, with 3 males and 4 females, aged 28-72 years. The diameter of the tumor was 1.9-17.0 cm. The operation time was 62-308 min, intraoperative blood loss was 5-100 mL, postoperative chest drainage tube retention time was 0-9 days, pain score on the 7th day after surgery was 0-2 points, and postoperative hospital stay was 3-12 days. All patients underwent successful and complete resection of the masses and thymus, with favorable postoperative recovery. Conclusion The "balance-shaped sternal elevation device" effectively expands the retrosternal space, providing surgeons with satisfactory surgical views and operating space. This technique significantly enhances the efficacy and safety of minimally invasive surgery for anterior mediastinal masses, reduces trauma and postoperative pain, and accelerates patient recovery, demonstrating important clinical significance and application value.

BACKGROUND:We have successfully established an animal model of small ear pig in southern Yunnan province with internal tension relieving technique combined with autologous Achilles tendon for anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction,and verified the stability and reliability of the model.However,whether internal tension relieving technique can promote the ligamentalization process of autologous Achilles tendon graft has not been studied. OBJECTIVE:To investigate the differences in the process of ligamentalization between conventional reconstruction and internal reduction reconstruction of the anterior cruciate ligament by gross view,histology and electron microscopy. METHODS:Thirty adult female small ear pigs in southern Yunnan province were selected.Anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction was performed on the left knee joint with the ipsilateral knee Achilles tendon(n=30 in the normal group),and anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction was performed on the right knee joint with the ipsilateral knee Achilles tendon combined with the internal relaxation and enhancement system(n=30 in the relaxation group).The autogenous right forelimb was used as the control group;the anterior cruciate ligament was exposed but not severed or surgically treated.At 12,24,and 48 weeks after surgery,10 animals were sacrificed,respectively.The left and right knee joint specimens were taken for gross morphological observation to evaluate the graft morphology.MAS score was used to evaluate the excellent and good rate of the ligament at each time point.Hematoxylin-eosin staining was used to evaluate the degree of ligament graft vascularization.Collagen fibers and nuclear morphology were observed,and nuclear morphology was scored.Ultrastructural remodeling was evaluated by scanning electron microscopy and transmission electron microscopy. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)The ligament healing shape of the relaxation group was better at various time points after surgery,and the excellent and good rate of MAS score was higher(P<0.05).Moreover,the relaxation group could obtain higher ligament vascularization score(P<0.05).(2)The arrangement of collagen bundles and fiber bundles in the two groups gradually tended to be orderly,and the transverse fiber connections between collagen gradually increased and thickened,suggesting that the strength and shape degree of the grafts were gradually improved,but the ligament remodeling in the relaxation group was always faster than that in the normal group at various time points after surgery.(3)The diameter,distribution density,and arrangement degree of collagen fibers in the relaxation group were better than those in the normal group at all time points,especially in the comparison of collagen fiber diameter between and within the relaxation group(P<0.05).

ObjectiveTo investigate the anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects of baicalin for treating chronic obstructive pulmonary disease （COPD） in rats and decipher the molecular mechanisms via the nuclear factor-kappa B （NF-κB）/nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 （Nrf2） signaling pathway. MethodsSixty SPF-grade male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly assigned into six groups： normal control， COPD model， low-dose baicalin， medium-dose baicalin， high-dose baicalin， and budesonide. The normal control group received no treatment， whereas COPD was modeled in other groups with a combined modeling approach involving intratracheal lipopolysaccharide instillation and passive cigarette smoke exposure. The model establishment was evaluated through behavioral observation combined with pathological examination. Hematoxylin-eosin （HE） staining was performed to assess histopathological changes in the lung. Serum levels of inflammatory cytokines ［interleukin （IL）-6， IL-8， IL-17， IL-22， tumor necrosis factor （TNF）-α， and transforming growth factor （TGF）-β）］， reactive oxygen species （ROS）， and vascular endothelial growth factor （VEGF） were quantified by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay （ELISA）. Meanwhile， the levels of IL-6， IL-17， and IL-22 in the bronchoalveolar lavage fluid （BALF） and IL-10， IL-22， and TNF-α in the lung tissue were measured via ELISA. Immunohistochemistry （IHC） was employed to detect the expression of histone deacetylase 2 （HDAC2） and Nrf2. Western blot was performed to evaluate the expression of phosphoinositide 3-kinase （PI3K）， protein kinase B （Akt）， glucocorticoid receptor （GR）， NF-κB， HDAC2， and Nrf2 in the lung tissue. Additionally， real-time PCR was conducted to assess the mRNA levels of PI3K， Akt， HDAC2， Nrf2， GR， and NF-κB in the lung tissue. ResultsHE staining revealed that the airway mucosal epithelium in the COPD model group appeared extensive shedding， structural disorganization， and diffuse infiltration of inflammatory cells within the lumen. And goblet cells showed compensatory proliferation with pathological hypertrophy of mucus glands. In contrast， inflammatory infiltration and alveolar overdistension were significantly alleviated in the medium- and high-dose baicalin groups. The COPD model group exhibited mucus plug formation within the terminal bronchioles， along with fibrotic narrowing of the bronchial wall. Moreover， the smooth muscle bundles of the bronchial wall were hypertrophic， with concomitant collagen deposition. Progressive dissolution and rupture of alveolar septa were observed， leading to the formation of abnormally enlarged air-filled cavities. However， the bronchial wall structure was largely restored with only mild thickening of the smooth muscle layer in the baicalin groups. Compared with the COPD model group， the medium- and high-dose baicalin groups showed declined ROS and VEGF levels （P<0.05）， and all the baicalin groups presented lowered levels of IL-6， IL-8， IL-17， IL-22， TGF-β， and TNF-α and elevated level of IL-10 （P<0.05）. Baicalin upregulated the protein levels of HDAC2， Nrf2， GR， PI3K， and Akt， while suppressing the protein level of NF-κB （P<0.05）. Furthermore， baicalin increased the mRNA levels of Nrf2 and GR while down-regulating the mRNA level of NF-κB （P<0.05）. ConclusionBaicalin exerts anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects by inhibiting the pro-inflammatory factor NF-κB while enhancing the expression of the anti-inflammatory factor HDAC2 and activating the antioxidant factor Nrf2， thereby alleviating the lung tissue damage in COPD rats. The therapeutic effects of baicalin may be closely associated with its regulatory role in the NF-κB/Nrf2 signaling pathway.

Body weight abnormalities, including overweight, obesity, and underweight, have become a dual public health challenge in Chinese adults: overweight and obesity lead to a variety of chronic complications, while underweight increases the risks of malnutrition, sarcopenia, and organ dysfunction. To systematically address these issues, multidisciplinary experts in endocrinology, sports science, nutrition, and psychiatry from various regions have held multiple weight management seminars. Based on the latest epidemiological data and clinical evidence, they expanded the guideline to include assessment and intervention strategies for underweight, in addition to the core content of obesity management. This guideline outlines the etiological mechanisms, evaluation methods, and multidimensional management strategies for overweight and obesity, covering key areas such as diagnosis and assessment, medical nutrition therapy, exercise prescription, pharmacological intervention, and psychological support. It is intended to provide a scientific and standardized approach to weight management across the adult population, aiming to curb the rising prevalence of obesity, mitigate complications associated with abnormal body weight, and improve nutritional status and overall quality of life.

OBJECTIVE: To report on a case of mosaicism involving trisomy 21, maternal uniparental isodisomy, and normal diploid cells in uncultured amniocytes, and to explore the discrepancies between conventional cytogenetic and molecular cytogenetic techniques during prenatal diagnosis. METHODS: A 30-year-old pregnant woman who presented to Boai Hospital of Zhongshan on June 27, 2023 has undergone amniocentesis at 16 weeks of gestation. The amniotic fluid sample was subjected to quantitative fluorescent PCR (QF-PCR), G-banded karyotype analysis, and chromosomal microarray analysis (CMA). The discrepancies between the results of each method were analyzed. This study was approved by Medical Ethics Committee of Boai Hospital of Zhongshan (Ethics No.: KY-2024-001-01). RESULTS: Non-invasive prenatal testing (NIPT) at 12 weeks indicated a high risk of trisomy 21. QF-PCR of uncultured amniocytes revealed a pattern of trisomy 21. After one week of cell culture, G-banding analysis showed mos 47,XX,+21[1]/46,XX[72]. CMA revealed a homozygous state of chromosome 21 in cultured cells, while uncultured amniocytes showed mosaic trisomy 21 with an estimated proportion of 50%. These findings suggested a complex chromosomal mosaicism in the fetus, which may result from a trisomy rescue event during early embryogenesis, leading to coexistence of three cell lines including trisomy 21, maternal uniparental isodisomy, and normal diploid cells. CONCLUSION In prenatal diagnosis, discrepancies may arise between QF-PCR and conventional chromosomal karyotyping analysis, particularly in complex genetic phenomena such as trisomy rescue and uniparental disomy. For cases where NIPT indicated a high risk of trisomy 21 but G-banding karyotype analysis yielded a normal result, further molecular genetic testing using uncultured cells is recommended.

Objective:To analyze the epidemiological and clinical characteristics of respiratory pathogens in China.Methods:This study was a cross-sectional study, which encompassed 19 core units of the clinical pathogen network and established a three-tiered clinical pathogen surveillance system. Thirty respiratory samples were collected every two weeks from various units from January to December 2024, and the clinical and pathogen diagnostic information were gathered. A total of 11 864 samples were tested using this system. The tier-1 clinical pathogen surveillance system covered influenza A virus (Flu-A), influenza B virus (Flu-B), respiratory syncytial virus (RSV), and severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). The tier-2 clinical pathogen surveillance system focused on 18 key respiratory pathogens. The tier-3 clinical pathogen surveillance system further clarified whether any emerging infectious diseases had occurred.Results:The tier-1 clinical pathogen surveillance system showed Flu-A predominated in December, Flu-B predominated in January, SARS-CoV-2 peaked in March and August, whereas RSV circulated sporadically throughout the year. Geographic trends were broadly consistent across the seven major regions, although Flu-A detection in December was notably higher in Northeast China (48.1%(111/231)) and East China (36.2%(148/409)), and RSV detection was concentrated in the Northwest and South China from January to March. Data from the tier-2 clinical pathogen surveillance system indicated that Streptococcus pneumoniae, Mycoplasma pneumoniae, rhinovirus, and adenovirus were detected year-round, of these, Streptococcus pneumoniae and rhinovirus showed elevated positive detection rates from August to September, while adenovirus peaked in January. Legionella pneumophila was not detected throughout the year, and other pathogens fluctuated throughout the year without a consistent pattern. The predominant etiologic agents of pediatric pneumonia were Mycoplasma pneumoniae (35.0%(105/300)), rhinovirus (25.7%(77/300)), and adenovirus (17.3%(52/300)), whereas adult pneumonia was mainly caused by Streptococcus pneumoniae (10.5%(29/277)), Staphylococcus aureus (6.9%(19/277)), Mycoplasma pneumoniae (6.9%(19/277)), and Flu-A (6.1%(17/277)). The tier-3 clinical pathogen surveillance system did not identify any emerging respiratory pathogens. Conclusion:Respiratory pathogens in China in 2024 exhibit distinct temporal and spatial distribution patterns and vary among different populations.
