OBJECTIVE To investigate the prevalence and influencing factors of potentially inappropriate medication （PIM） among the elderly in nursing homes in Urumqi based on three PIM screening tools， and to compare the applicability of different tools. METHODS A cross-sectional study design was adopted. Elderly individuals from six nursing homes in Urumqi were selected as the research subjects from May 2021 to September 2023. Demographic characteristics， disease burden and medication records of the elderly were collected. PIM screening was performed using the Chinese PIM criteria （2024 edition）， the American Geriatrics Society （AGS） Beers criteria （2023 edition）， and the Screening Tool of Older Person’S Prescriptions（STOPP）/Screening Tool to Alert to Right Treatment（START） （2023 edition）. Fleiss’s Kappa test was used to assess the consistency among the three screening tools， and multivariate Logistic regression was used to analyze the influencing factors of PIM. RESULTS The prevalence of PIM screened by the Chinese PIM criteria was 47.4% （323/682）， by the AGS Beers criteria was 43.4% （296/682）， and by the STOPP criteria was 50.9% （347/682）. The consistency among the three screening tools was low （Fleiss’s Kappa＝0.12， P ＜0.001）. Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that all three screening tools indicated that polypharmacy， aspirin use and psychotropic drug use were independent risk factors for PIM among elderly in nursing houses （all OR＞1， P ＜0.05）. CONCLUSIONS The prevalence of PIM among the elderly in nursing homes in Urumqi is relatively high. Polypharmacy， aspirin use and psychotropic drug use are common independent risk factors for PIM. There are differences in screening results among the three tools with low consistency. The Chinese PIM criteria can serve as a first-line tool for PIM screening in nursing homes.

Intravascular large B-cell lymphoma(IVLBCL) is a rare and aggressive type of lymphoma with diverse and nonspecific clinical manifestations, often leading to misdiagnosis. This article reports a case of IVLBCL in a middle-aged male patient who initially presented with pulmonary arterial hypertension(PAH). The patient exhibited progressive hypoxemia and PAH, showing poor response to standard PAH therapy. Laboratory tests indicated a hyperinflammatory state and significantly elevated lactate dehydrogenase levels, while imaging revealed diffuse bilateral lung lesions. Random skin biopsy identified atypical B lymphocytes within subcutaneous capillaries, confirming the diagnosis of IVLBCL. Following treatment with the ZR-CHOP regimen, the patient's symptoms and laboratory parameters improved markedly. By reviewing relevant literature, this article systematically outlines the diagnostic and therapeutic process of this case, aiming to provide insights for the clinical recognition of such rare presentations.

Objective To compare and analyze the changes in the use of lung cancer therapeutic drugs before and after the national initiation of health insurance negotiations, and to study the impact of a series of policies on the use of lung cancer drugs. Methods Descriptive statistical methods were used analyze the basic situation of lung cancer patients and the changes of corresponding therapeutic drugs in Peking University People's Hospital from 2014 to 2020, as well as to the hospital procurement data of lung cancer therapeutic drugs in the database of the Chinese Medicine Economic Information. Results From 2014 to 2020, the total cost per capita of lung cancer patients showed a trend of first increasing and then decreasing, increasing before the national drug negotiation and gradually decreasing after the negotiation. After 2017, the use of small ATC categories such as VEGF/VEGFR inhibitors and EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors increased significantly, along with a rise in the number of monoclonal antibody varieties. The DDDs of osimertinib, anlotinib, alectinib, crizotinib and other drugs in the medical insurance list increased significantly, and the average daily cost decreased significantly. Conclusion The number of hospitalization days for lung cancer patients had continued to shorten in recent years, and the structure of drug use had changed significantly. The adjustment of the medical insurance catalog had led to more innovative lung cancer drugs showing the trend of volume up and price down.

OBJECTIVE To systematically evaluate risk prediction models for chemotherapy-induced myelosuppression in breast cancer， and provide a scientific reference for clinical healthcare workers in selecting or developing effective predictive models. METHODS A systematic search was conducted for studies on predictive models of the risk of chemotherapy-induced myelosuppression in breast cancer across the CNKI， VIP， Wanfang， PubMed， Web of Science， Cochrane Library， Embase， and Scopus databases， with a time frame of the establishment of the database to May 7， 2024. Literature was independently screened by 2 investigators， data were extracted according to critical appraisal and data extraction for systematic reviews of predictive model studies， and the risk of bias evaluation tool for predictive model studies was used to analyze the risk of bias and applicability of the included studies. RESULTS There were totally 7 studies， comprising 12 models. Among them， 11 models indicated an area under the subject operating characteristic curve of 0.600-0.908； 2 models indicated calibration. The common predictor variables of the included models were age， pre-chemotherapy neutrophil count， pre-chemotherapy lymphocyte count， and pre-chemotherapy albumin. The overall risk of bias of the 7 studies was high， which was mainly attributed to the flaws in the study design， insufficient sample sizes， inappropriate treatment of variables， non-reporting of missing data， and the lack of indicators for the assessment of the models， but the applicability was good. CONCLUSIONS The predictive performance of risk predictive models for chemotherapy-induced myelosuppression in breast cancer remains to be further enhanced， and the overall risk of model bias is high. Future studies should follow the specifications of model development and reporting， then combine machine learning algorithms to develop risk predictive models with good predictive performance， high stability， and low risk of bias， so as to provide a decision-making basis for the clinic.

Objective:To explore the impact of National Metabolic Management Center (MMC) mode on the metabolic indexes in different age patients with type 2 diabetic mellitus (T2DM).Methods:A prospective study method was used. A total of 798 T2DM patients underwent the MMC mode management in Shanghai Punan Hospital of Pudong New District from May 2021 to August 2024 were selected. The patients followed the MMC one-stop diagnosis and treatment management service standards to enter the registration, treatment, examination and follow-up processes. The average follow-up time was 12.0 months. The glucose and lipid metabolism indexes, blood pressure and body mass index (BMI) before intervention and after receiving the intervention by MMC were measured. The glucose and lipid metabolism indexes included triacylglycerol, total cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), fasting blood glucose, 2 h postprandial blood glucose and glycated hemoglobin.

The control rates of blood lipid and blood glucose after intervention in patients with T2DM were significantly higher than those before intervention: 54.6% (436/798) vs. 37.3% (298/798) and 62.0% (495/798) vs. 26.1% (208/798), and there were statistical differences ( P<0.01); there were no statistical differences in the control rates of BMI and blood pressure before intervention and after intervention ( P>0.05). In T2DM patients with age <50 years and from 50 to 59 years, the triacylglycerol, total cholesterol, LDL-C, fasting blood glucose, 2 h postprandial blood glucose and glycated hemoglobin after intervention were significantly lower than those before intervention, the HDL-C after intervention was significantly higher than that before intervention, and there were statistical differences ( P<0.05 or <0.01); the control rates of blood lipid and blood glucose after intervention were significantly higher than those before intervention, the patients with <50 years: 44.5% (114/256) vs. 27.7% (71/256) and 76.6% (196/256) vs. 28.9% (74/256), the patients with 50 to 59 years: 54.8% (86/157) vs. 28.0% (44/157) and 66.9% (105/157) vs. 24.8% (39/157), and there were statistical differences ( P<0.01); there were no statistical differences in the control rates of BMI and blood pressure between before intervention and after intervention ( P>0.05). In T2DM patients with age from 60 to 69 years, the triacylglycerol, total cholesterol, LDL-C, fasting blood glucose, 2 h postprandial blood glucose and glycated hemoglobin after intervention were significantly lower than those before intervention, and there were statistical differences ( P<0.05 or <0.01); there was no statistical differences in HDL-C before intervention and after intervention ( P>0.05); the control rates of blood lipid and blood glucose after intervention were significantly higher than those before intervention: 59.0% (177/300) vs. 47.3% (142/300) and 53.3% (160/300) vs. 25.7% (77/300), and there were statistical differences ( P<0.01); there were no statistical differences in the control rates of BMI and blood pressure before intervention and after intervention ( P>0.05). In T2DM patients with aged ≥70 years, the total cholesterol, LDL-C, 2 h postprandial blood glucose and glycated hemoglobin after intervention were significantly lower than those before intervention, and there were statistical differences ( P<0.05 or <0.01); there were no statistical difference in triacylglycerol, HDL-C and fasting blood glucose between before intervention and after intervention ( P>0.05); the control rate of blood glucose after intervention was significantly higher than that before intervention: 48.2% (41/85) vs. 22.4% (19/85), and there was statistical difference ( P<0.01); there were no statistical differences in the control rates of BMI, blood pressure and blood lipid between before intervention and after intervention ( P>0.05). Conclusions:The intervention based on MMC mode management could effectively improve the glucose and lipid metabolism in patients with T2DM, especially for patients with aged <70 years. However, additional health guidance is needed for patients with aged ≥ 70 years to further enhance their health benefits.

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 explore the optimization potential of clinical target volume (CTV) delineation proposed in the guidelines of the Oncology Group (RTOG), the Francophone Group of Urological Radiotherapy (GFRU), and the European Society for Radiotherapy and Oncology (ESTRO) based on prostate bed local occurrence patterns after radical prostatectomy identified using prostate-specific membrane antigen positron emission tomography (PSMA PET).Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on patients with local prostate bed recurrence after radical prostatectomy who underwent PSMA PET at the Department of Nuclear Medicine, Peking University First Hospital from September 2021 to February 2024. The central point of each recurrence was marked. A six-zone method was established based on prostate bed anatomy and the characteristics of cross-sectional imaging. Then, the positional relationships (within or outside) were recorded with respect to recurrences and CTV defined by the RTOG, GFRU, and ESTRO (CTV RTOG, CTV GFRU, and CTV ESTRO), followed the analysis of the recurrence rates and distribution characteristics of various zones. Results:A total of 63 patients with prostate bed recurrence after radical prostatectomy were enrolled in this study, including 97 recurrences. The recurrence rates in the six zones were as follows: 10% of zone 1, 22% of zone 2, 29% of zone 3, 2% of zone 4, 12% of zone 5a, 18% of zone 5b, and 7% of zone 6. Among these zones, zones 2 and 3 showed the highest and second-highest recurrence rates, respectively. CTV GFRU and CTV ESTRO completely covered zones 2 and 3, while CTV RTOG covered zone 2 completely and zone 3 partially. Zone 4, characterized by a low recurrence rate, was not covered by CTV GFRU and CTV ESTRO but was entirely covered by CTV RTOG. Zone 5a, with a recurrence rate of 12%, was completely covered by CTV RTOG but was partially covered by CTV GFRU and CTV ESTRO. The range of 1.3 cm in front of the posterior wall of the bladder covered all recurrences in zone 5a. Conclusions:For CTV delineation of the prostate cancer surgical bed, zone 4, the anterior half of the bladder above the pubic symphysis midpoint, should be contracted due to the low recurrence rate in this zone. In contrast, the anterior boundary above the pubic symphysis midpoint should extend to 1.3 cm in front of the posterior wall of the bladder to completely cover the recurrence zones.

Objective To investigate the conformational states of ADAMTS13 under different pH conditions.Methods Atomic force microscopy(AFM)was applied to pull ADAMTS13 molecules with two distinct pulling systems:the Biotin-Streptavidin system and the 6×His-Anti-His antibody system.The rupture forces and molecular contour lengths were analyzed.Results Under pH 7.4 condition,when ADAMTS13 was pulled by Biotin-Streptavidin system,the mean molecular contour length was(30.93±1.56)nm,exhibiting a bimodal frequency distribution with peak positions at(22.12±0.01)and(49.57±0.05)nm.When ADAMTS13 was pulled using 6×Hist-anti-His antibody system,the mean molecular contour length was(32.77±0.72)nm,also showing a bimodal distribution,with a peak position at(25.73±0.16)and(43.84±0.63)nm,respectively.Under pH 6.0 condition,when ADAMTS13 was pulled by Biotin-Streptavidin system,the mean molecular contour length increased to(47.07±1.6)nm,and the frequency distribution shifted to trimodal,with peak positions at(22±1.25),(55.09±2.62)and(76.69±3.06)nm.The conformation of ADAMTS13 was more extended at pH 6.0 compared with that at pH 7.4.Conclusions ADAMTS13 exists in'closed'and intermediate conformational states at physiological pH 7.4.However,at pH 6.0,ADAMTS13 can adopt'closed',intermediate,and'open'conformational states.This study contributes to a further understanding of the role of ADAMTS13 in normal physiology and thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura,providing insights for the development of novel recombination ADAMTS13 drugs.

OBJECTIVE To construct a prediction model for the efficacy of serotonin-norepinephrine reuptake inhibitor(SNRI)in inpatients with moderate and severe depression by using a machine learning method.METHODS The case records of inpatients with moderate and severe depression treated with SNRI antidepressants were collected from a third-grade class-A hospital in Xinjiang from January 2022 to October 2024;those patients were divided into effective group and ineffective group based on the Hamilton depression scale-24 score reduction rate.After screening the characteristic variables related to the therapeutic efficacy of SNRI drugs through LASSO regression,five prediction models including support vector machine,k-nearest neighbor,random forest,lightweight gradient boosting machine and extreme gradient boosting were constructed using the training set.Bayesian optimization was used to adjust the hyperparameters of these models.The performance of the models was evaluated in the validation set to select the optimal model.The Shapley additive explanations method was used to perform explainable analysis on the best model.RESULTS The medical records from 355 hospitalized patients with moderate and severe depression were collected,comprising 285 cases in the effective group and 70 cases in the ineffective group,resulting in an overall therapeutic response rate of 80.28%.After feature variable screening,five characteristic variables for therapeutic efficacy were obtained,including Hamilton anxiety scale,blood urea nitrogen,combination of anti-anxiety drugs,drinking history,and first onset of the disease.Compared with other models,the random forest model performed the best.The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve was 0.85,the area under the precision-recall curve was 0.87,the accuracy was 0.74,and the recall rate value was 0.75.CONCLUSIONS The random forest model constructed based on five characteristic variables demonstrates potential for predicting the therapeutic efficacy of SNRI antidepressants in hospitalized patients with moderate and severe depression.

Objective To explore the effects of ultrasound-guided intercostal nerve block(INB)and thoracic paravertebral nerve block(TPVB)on the dosage of anesthetics and the efficacy of analgesia in video-assisted thoracoscopic lobectomy.Methods From October 2019 to October 2023,90 patients undergoing video-assisted thoracoscopic lobectomy at the People's Hospital of Tongling City,Anhui,were selected.They were divided into the INB group(42 cases)and the TPVB group(48 cases).The INB group received ultrasound-guided intercostal nerve block,while the TPVB group was administered ultrasound-guided thoracic paravertebral nerve block.The two groups were compared before anesthesia induction(T0),15 minutes of anesthesia(T1),30 minutes of anesthesia(T2),45 minutes of anesthesia(T3),and after extubation(T4),vita4 signs,anesthetic dosage,analgesic effect,pain stress index and adverse reactions.Results In the TPVB group,systolic blood pressure(SBP)of T1,T2,T3 and T4 were(115.88±9.29)mmHg,(113.58±9.72)mmHg,(117.33±9.17)mmHg and(121.15±10.51)mmHg,respectively;diastolic blood pressure(DBP)were(86.74±7.35)mmHg,(90.83±8.82)mmHg,(90.83±8.82)mmHg and(91.05±8.73)mmHg,respectively;Heart rate(HR)were(79.94±7.46)times/min,(81.97±7.28)times/min,(82.36±7.41)times/min and(85.83±8.32)times/min,respectively.Which were all higher than the INB group[(103.53±8.28)mmHg,(105.40±8.66)mmHg,(109.03±8.13)mmHg,(114.64±9.65)mmHg.(77.68±6.57)mmHg,(79.27±6.69)mmHg,(83.21±7.37)mmHg,(85.83±8.21)mmHg,(71.17±6.21)times/min,(75.18±6.47)times/min,(74.82±6.12)times/min and(79.35±7.12)times/min,respectively],there were statistical significance between the two groups(P＜0.05).Postoperatively,the TPVB group had lower 24-hour sufentanil consumption[(27.68±2.64)μg]and fewer presses of the analgesia pump[(5.16±0.38)times]compared to the INB group[(36.22±3.36)μg and(6.87±0.42)times,(P＜0.05)].Visual analogue scale(VAS)scores for pain at rest and during coughing at 2,24,and 48 hours in group TPVB were 2.44±0.27,3.55±0.42,2.81±0.34 and 3.36±0.23,4.13±0.33,3.80±0.25,respectively,which were also lower than the INB group(2.83±0.44,3.98±0.55,3.33±0.46 and 3.87±0.30,4.59±0.47,4.17±0.29,respectively)(P＜0.05).Levels of prostaglandin E2(PGE2)(1.53±0.28 μg/L),norepinephrine(NE)(362.25±33.85 ng/L),and cortisol(Cor)(278.72±25.13 ng/L)in the TPVB group were lower than those in the INB group(2.71±0.32 μg/L,425.67±38.37 ng/L,315.68±29.21 ng/L)(P＜0.05).Adverse reactions such as nausea and vomiting,and dizziness were less frequent in the TPVB group[1(2.1％),1(2.1％)]compared to the INB group[6(12.5％),5(10.4％)](P＜0.05).Conclusion Ultrasound-guided thoracic paravertebral nerve block is superior to intercostal nerve block in terms of anesthetic dosage and analgesic efficacy in video-assisted thoracoscopic lobectomy.
