This paper summarizes professor LIN Yi's clinical experience in treating brain metastases of triple-negative breast cancer （TNBC）. It is believed that the pathogenesis of this disease is fundamentally based on spleen and lung qi deficiency， with the binding of phlegm， stasis， and toxins acting as the critical link for disease progression， and qi stagnation serving as a major factor in its protracted course. The core therapeutic principle of "consolidating the root and cultivating the origin， resolving phlegm and dredging collaterals" is proposed. Clinically， the disease is staged into active， stable， and convalescent phases. During the active phase， characterized by spleen and lung qi deficiency alongside hyperactivity of phlegm-toxin pathogens， the treatment focuses on supplementing qi， fortifying the spleen， resolving phlegm， and dredging collaterals， utilizing the Yiqi Jiangtan Tongluo Formula （益气降痰通络方）. During the stable phase， marked by spleen deficiency， weak qi， and residual phlegm， stasis， and toxins lingering in the collaterals， the treatment aims to fortify spleen， cultivate the origin， expel pathogens， and dredge collaterals， using modified Baihua Qiling Formula （白花芪苓方）. During the convalescent phase， characterized by depletion of healthy qi， dysfunction of zang-fu （脏腑） organs， and deep-seated residual phlegm， stasis， and toxins within the brain collaterals， the treatment focuses on regulating qi movement， protecting body fluids， and applying constitution-based treatments， mostly using mild and nourishing medicinals.

Nonunion of osteoporotic vertebral fractures (OVF), predominantly affecting the elderly, can lead to intractable pain, vertebral collapse, progressive kyphotic deformity, and neurological impairment, significantly compromising patients′ quality of life. There exists considerable debate on diagnosis and management of OVF, encompassing key issues such as clinical diagnosis and staging criteria for nonunion, surgical indications and procedure selection, and postoperative rehabilitation planning. Currently, there lacks standardized clinical guideline and expert consensus on the diagnosis and management of OVF nonunion in China. To address this gap, Minimally Invasive Surgery Group of Chinese Orthopedic Association, Osteoporosis Committee of Chinese Association of Orthopedic Surgeons, Prevention and Rehabilitation Committee for Osteoporosis of Chinese Association of Rehabilitation Medicine and Minimally Invasive Orthopedic Surgery Branch of China Association for Geriatric Care jointly organized domestic experts in spinal surgery, endocrinology, and rehabilitation to formulate the Clinical guideline for the diagnosis and treatment for nonunion of osteoporotic vertebral fractures ( version 2025), based on existing literature and clinical experience and adhering to principles of scientific rigor and practicality. The guideline provided 13 evidence-based recommendations encompassing diagnosis and treatment of OVF nonunion, aiming to standardize its clinical management.

By aggregating the essence of theories related with depressive syndrome from historical medical practitioners and based on the extensive clinical experience,traditional Chinese medicine(TCM)master Lin Yi proposed the theory of six-stagnation-based breast disease prevention and treatment.She pointed out that the occurrence of breast diseases is related to six stagnations(qi stagnancy,blood stagnancy,phlegm stagnancy,dampness stagnancy,food stagnancy,and fire stagnancy),and the treatment for breast diseases should start from the six stagnations.The development and progression of breast cancer is closely associated with the imbalance of internal environment and the formation of six stagnations,and breast cancer is one of the major diseases suitable for the TCM syndrome differentiation and treatment.For the treatment of early breast cancer,Professor Lin Yi proposed to divide early breast cancer into four stages,namely perioperative period,peri-chemotherapy period,peri-radiotherapy period,and consolidation period.Guided by the theory of six-stagnation-based breast disease prevention and treatment,therapies of soothing the liver,resolving phlegm,removing stasis,clearing heat,eliminating dampness,promoting digestion,fortifying the spleen,and tonifying the kidney are employed to harmonize the internal environment and alleviate symptoms.The theory of six-stagnation-based breast disease prevention and treatment enriches the TCM theory for the prevention and treatment of breast cancer,refines the principles and methods for the staging and syndrome differentiation of early breast cancer,and holds significant implications for enhancing the efficacy of integrated TCM and western medicine in managing early breast cancer.

In order to explore the relationship between ubiquitin proteasome system(UPS)and au-tophagy after macrophage was infected with Brucella.On the one hand,the levels of LC3 Ⅱ、P62 and 20S proteasomes in cell supernatant and peritoneal fluid were determined respectively after RAW264.7 cells were infected and BALB/c mice were intraperitoneal inoculated with Brucella suis(B.suis).The results displayed that UPS was activated firstly,followed by autophagy after B.suis infection.On the other hand,we prepared the UPS-inhibited-cells and ALP-inhibited-cells by lacta-cystin and 3-methy ladenine(3-MA),and then the cells were infected by B.suis and the levels of LC3 Ⅱ、P62 与 20S proteasomes in cell supernatant were determined.The results showed that the ALP function was significantly improved when the effect of M

In recent years, the corona virus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has had a huge impact on the global medical, political and economic fields. Since the beginning of the COVID-19 epidemic, our understanding of the impact of COVID-19 has grown exponentially. Recently, the COVID-19 epidemic has changed rapidly in China, and there has been controversy over how to carry out surgical operations for patients with lung neoplastic lesions. Some studies have shown that lung cancer patients undergoing surgery are more likely to experience respiratory failure and perioperative death after contracting COVID-19 than the general population, however, delays in cancer treatment are also associated with increased mortality among these patients. In particular, the novel coronavirus Omikron variant has a higher transmissibility and may escape the immunity obtained through the previous novel coronavirus infection and vaccination. In order to minimize the risk of novel coronavirus infection in surgical patients, it is necessary to develop new treatment guidelines, expert consensus and preventive measures. However, the current rapid change of the epidemic situation has led to insufficient time and evidence to develop guidelines and consensus. Therefore, thoracic surgeons need to evaluate specific patient populations at higher risk of severe complications before surgery and weigh the benefit of surgical treatment against the risk of novel coronavirus infection. We try to give some recommendations on lung surgery during the current domestic epidemic situation based on the guidelines and consensus of oncology and thoracic surgery organizations in different regions on lung surgery.

Objective:To explore the spatial and temporal distribution patterns of emerging snail-infested sites in different environmental types in Yunnan Province.Methods:The data of snail-infested sites in Yunnan Province from 1950 to 2014 (from Yunnan Institute for Endemic Diseases Control and Prevention), were collected and sorted out, a spatial and temporal database on the distribution of emerging snail-infested sites were established, and the changes in the spatial and temporal distribution of emerging snail-infested sites in different environments types (ditches, tangerines, paddy fields, dry land, beaches and other environments) were studied by using spatial autocorrelation analysis and scanning statistics analysis.Results:From 1950 to 2014, the annual number of emerging snail-infested sites in Yunnan Province reached a peak (1 730) in 1955 and then showed a fluctuating downward trend. From 1993 to 2014, the number of emerging snail-infested sites remained below 100, and increased to 160 and 131, respectively, in 2004 and 2013. The longest mean duration of 43.85 years was recorded for the beaches environment for emerging snail-infested sites, followed by the paddy fields environment with a mean duration of 37.01 years, and the shortest mean duration of 20.44 years for the tangerines environment. Spatial autocorrelation analysis showed that there was a positive spatial correlation between the duration of emerging snail-infested sites of different environmental types (global Moran's I ranged from 0.43 to 0.64, P < 0.05). Scanning statistics analysis showed that emerging snail-infested sites of different environmental types had spatial and temporal aggregation ( P < 0.001), with 3- 6 clusters of statistically significant aggregation detected respectively. Conclusion:The emerging snail-infested sites in different environments types in Yunnan Province have spatial and temporal aggregation, and it is necessary to strengthen monitoring and prevention and control of the aggregation areas of different environment types to prevent further spread of the snail.

Objective:To compare left and right ventricular Tei indexes and to determine the reference range in newborns of different gestational age (GA) and birth weight (BW).Methods:From February 2019 to June 2021, newborns admitted to the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit of our hospital were enrolled. Tei indexes were measured and calculated during 24 h~7 d after birth and reexamined 1~2 weeks later in some of the newborns. The newborns were assigned into <32 w group, 32~36 w group and ≥ 37 w group according to their GA, < 1 500 g group, 1 500~2 499 g group and ≥2 500 g group according to their BW, and early newborn group (1~7 d) and late newborn group (>7 d) according to their age of evaluation. The data were analyzed using t test, one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) and correlation analysis with SPSS 20.0 statistical software. Results:A total of 128 cases were included. 42 cases in <32 w group, 43 in 32~36 w group and 43 in ≥37 w group. 42 cases in <1 500 g group, 42 in 1 500 ~ 2 499 g group and 44 in ≥2 500 g group. Tei indexes were reexamined after 7 d of age in 63 preterm infants and in 31 full-term infants. The left and right ventricular Tei indexes of the ≥37 w group were less than the 32~36 w group and the <32 w group in early newborns (left ventricular: 0.382±0.069 vs. 0.431±0.069 and 0.439±0.060, right ventricular: 0.373±0.038 vs. 0.431±0.035 and 0.452±0.064); the right ventricular Tei index of the 32~36 w group was significantly less than the <32 w group ( P<0.05). No significant differences existed in the left ventricular Tei index between the 32 ~ 36 w group and the < 32 w group ( P>0.05). The left and right ventricular Tei indexes of the ≥2 500 g group were significantly less than the 1 500~2 499 g group and the <1 500 g group (left ventricular: 0.385±0.069 vs. 0.434±0.067 and 0.434±0.064, right ventricular: 0.376±0.039 vs. 0.431±0.043 and 0.450±0.061) ( P<0.05).No significant differences existed between the 1 500~2 499 g group and the <1 500 g group ( P>0.05). No significant differences existed in the left and right ventricular Tei indexes between the late newborn group and early newborn group ( P>0.05). For early newborns (1~7 d of age), the reference range of Tei index gradually decreased along with the increase of GA and BW. Conclusions:The left and right ventricular Tei indexes of full-term infants and infants with BW ≥2 500 g are less than preterm and low birth weight infants. The reference range of Tei index in early newborns shows negative correlation with GA and BW.
