Allergic diseases exhibited the characteristics of latent concealment and dynamic transmutation， which highly align with the pathogenic features of "latency and transformative change" described in the theory of latent pathogens. Based on the "latent pathogens with transformative potential" theory， this paper systematically explored the mechanisms of occurrence， transmission， and outcome of allergic diseases. It proposed that the insufficiency of kidney essence is the root cause enabling pathogens to lurk internally， leading to disease onset due to deficient healthy qi and lurking pathogens； the dysfunction of sanjiao serves as the pathway for pathogen stagnation， driving multi-system transmission； the accumulation of phlegm， stasis， and toxins constitutes the predicament of a protracted course， ultimately resulting in intractable pathological entanglement. Accordingly， a tiered intervention strategy is formulated，i.e. during the latency period， treatment should tonify the kidney and replenish essence to consolidate the foundation and halt the tendency of pathogens to lurk internally； during the transmission period， treatment should regulate sanjiao to intercept disease transmission and curb multi-system proliferation； during the protracted period， treatment should purge phlegm and resolve stasis to eliminate stubborn lesions， and break the vicious cycle of chronic accumulation and damage.

OBJECTIVE To explore and establish a full-cycle management model for drug traceability codes that aligns with national policy requirements and the practical needs of healthcare institutions， thereby enhancing the refinement of drug management and the level of medication safety. METHODS A tripartite strategy integrating “hardware deployment， system transformation， and process re-engineering” was adopted. This involved the introduction of intelligent identification devices （personal digital assistant， high-definition industrial reader）， the modification of the hospital information system interface， and the re-engineering of workflows （drug warehousing， dispensing and distribution， drug withdrawal， uploading to the insurance platform） to achieve comprehensive， informatized collection and association of drug traceability codes throughout all stages. RESULTS A full-cycle management model for drug traceability codes was successfully established， realizing the goals of making drugs “traceable to their source， trackable in their distribution， and accountable in their responsibility”. The patient waiting time for medication dispensing before and after the implementation was [3.08（1.67，5.58）] min and [3.28（1.77，5.98）] min， respectively. Among them， the patient waiting time under the pre-preparation mode was [3.60（2.13，6.35）] min and [3.50（2.03，6.30）] min， respectively； the patient waiting time under the real-time mode was [2.05（0.83，4.03）] min and [2.78（1.18，5.38）] min， respectively； the number of dispensing errors was 3， 0， respectively； the staffing of relevant positions had not been increased. CONCLUSIONS The drug traceability code management model constructed from a full-cycle perspective effectively meets national policy requirements. It provides data support for refined hospital management and offers solid technical and procedural safeguards for ensuring patient medication safety and strengthening medical insurance fund supervision， demonstrating practical value.

[摘 要] 目的：探讨含溴结构域蛋白1（BRD1）通过调控PI3K/AKT信号通路影响非小细胞肺癌（NSCLC）进展的作用机制。方法：利用TIMER 3.0数据库评估BRD1作为免疫治疗标志物的预测价值。利用慢病毒体系构建稳定过表达BRD1及N端截短突变体BRD1-ΔN的人肺癌细胞A549和NCI-H1299。采用CCK-8实验、克隆形成实验、划痕愈合实验及Transwell实验检测过表达BRD1/BRD1-ΔN对细胞增殖和迁移能力的影响；流式细胞术和Western blotting检测细胞凋亡水平及凋亡相关蛋白的变化。RNA-seq筛选受BRD1/BRD1-ΔN影响的信号通路，Western blotting及体外激酶实验验证BRD1/BRD1-ΔN过表达对AKT磷酸化的调控作用。采用AKT抑制剂LY294002处理过表达BRD1/BRD1-ΔN的NCI-H1299细胞，结合功能实验（CCK-8实验、划痕愈合实验）明确过表达BRD1/BRD1-ΔN促进细胞的增殖和迁移是否依赖AKT活化。通过RNA-seq联合KEGG/GSEA分析、免疫共沉淀（Co-IP）、RT-qPCR，鉴定整合素α2（ITGA2）是促进AKT活化的关键分子；通过Co-IP、敲低ITGA2、Western blotting及功能实验明确ITGA2在BRD1调控AKT活化中的具体作用。结果：数据库分析显示，BRD1可作为NSCLC免疫治疗的中等预测标志物（AUC = 0.625）。过表达BRD1/BRD1-ΔN显著增强了NSCLC细胞的增殖和迁移能力（P < 0.01或P < 0.001），但不影响细胞凋亡及凋亡相关蛋白的表达（均P > 0.05）；RNA-seq分析表明过表达BRD1/BRD1-ΔN主要富集于PI3K/AKT信号通路。Western blotting及体外激酶实验显示，BRD1/BRD1-ΔN过表达不影响AKT上游激酶（PDK1）的磷酸化，也不改变AKT的乙酰化修饰水平（均P > 0.05）；AKT抑制剂LY294002处理过表达BRD1/BRD1-ΔN细胞，发现BRD1/BRD1-ΔN促细胞增殖和迁移的作用部分依赖AKT的活化；RT-qPCR及Western blotting证实，BRD1过表达可上调ITGA2的mRNA和蛋白水平，敲低ITGA2则可逆转BRD1诱导的AKT激活及细胞增殖和迁移能力的增强。结论：BRD1是NSCLC的一种新型促癌因子，其通过上调ITGA2表达激活AKT信号通路，进而促进肺癌细胞的增殖和迁移。

Definitive chemoradiotherapy (dCRT) has become a cornerstone in the treatment of locally advanced esophageal cancer; however, local control remains suboptimal, and persistent lesions or locoregional recurrences after treatment are not uncommon. For patients without distant metastases but with local failure, whether surgical intervention can still offer curative potential remains a major clinical dilemma. Salvage esophagectomy (SE) offers potential long-term survival for selected patients, but this procedure is performed in the context of severe fibrosis, impaired local blood supply, and obscured anatomical planes following chemoradiotherapy, resulting in significantly higher perioperative risk compared to primary esophagectomy. Consequently, controversies exist regarding patient selection, preoperative restaging, choice of surgical approach, extent of lymphadenectomy, gastrointestinal reconstruction, and perioperative management. In recent years, with the refinement of restaging modalities such as PET/CT, the accumulation of experience in high-volume centers, and emerging evidence from clinical studies, the clinical role of SE has gradually shifted from a "high-risk salvage measure" to a "selective curative strategy aimed at achieving long-term survival in carefully selected patients". Nevertheless, standardized guidelines for patient selection, technical approaches, and perioperative management are still lacking. Based on current evidence and clinical experience, experts organized by the Integrated Esophageal Cancer Committee of Chinese Anti-Cancer Association systematically reviewed key issues regarding SE, including its definition, indications, preoperative evaluation, choice of surgical approach, lymphadenectomy, gastrointestinal reconstruction, and perioperative management, and formulated a Chinese expert consensus. This consensus aims to provide guidance for standardized assessment, appropriate referral, individualized surgical decision-making, and optimized perioperative management of patients with locoregional failure after dCRT. Ultimately, this will increase the likelihood of R0 resection, reduce the risk of severe complications, and promote the safer, more judicious, and standardized implementation of SE in high-risk scenarios.

Objective To analyze the screening results of prostate cancer(PCa)based on the serum prostate-specific antigen(PSA)level in middle-aged and elderly men in Kaifeng,so as to provide reference for optimizing the early screening strategy of PCa.Methods A multicenter cross-sectional design was adopted to analyze the serum PSA test results of male residents aged 52 to 94 collected from 14 community health service stations in Kaifeng during Jul.2024 and Apr.2025. Participants with PSA ≥4 μg/L were recommended to undergo prostate biopsy at a tertiary grade A hospital for a confirmed diagnosis.Multivariate logistic regression was used to analyze the influencing factors of referral compliance.The PSA positivity rate,referral loss rate,puncture willingness rate,and biopsy positivity rate were calculated.Results A total of 2812 men received free PSA screening.Among them,248 had abnormal PSA(≥4 μg/L),with a positive rate of 8.8%(248/2812).Only 105 cases were successfully referred to a tertiary grade A hospital,with a referral rate of 42.3%(105/248),and the referral loss rate reached 57.7%.Fifty-seven patients were advised to undergo prostate biopsy,but only 23 actually underwent prostate biopsy,and the willingness rate was 40.4%(23/57).Fourteen cases were diagnosed with PCa and the positive rate of prostate biopsy was 60.9%(14/23).The overall detection rate of PCa was 0.5%(14/2812).In the screening stage,the median PSA was 6.7(4.8-11.2)μg/L.The Spearman correlation analysis showed a positive correlation between participant age and PSA level(r_s=0.28,P＜0.001).In the diagnostic stage,only 40.4% of the referred patients underwent prostate biopsy,and the loss rate reached 59.6%.The median PSA in the PCa group was significantly higher than that in the non-PCa group(9.8 μg/L vs. 5.1 μg/L,P=0.002).Multivariate logistic regression analyses showed that advanced age(OR=1.08)and educational level of primary school or below(OR=3.32)were independent influencing factors for referral disorders(P＜0.001).In terms of screening efficacy,the overall biopsy positivity rate was 5.6%(14/248).Conclusion Conducting PCa screening based on PSA testing among middle-aged and elderly male residents can significantly increase the detection rate of clinically meaningful PCa,thereby improving the overall prognosis of patients.However,insufficient referral compliance(only 42.3%)and low puncture willingness rate(only 40.4%)have limited the screening benefits.Therefore,the research suggests that measures such as strengthening health education,popularizing relevant knowledge,and providing referral support are needed to reduce the churn rate.

ObjectiveTo observe the clinical efficacy and safety of Shenshuai Guanchang prescription in improving the intestinal barrier function，reducing non-indole uremic toxins，ameliorating micro-inflammatory state，and delaying renal function progression in non-dialysis patients with chronic kidney disease （CKD） stage 4-5. MethodsA total of 80 patients with CKD stage 4-5 who did not receive dialysis replacement therapy and were diagnosed with the syndrome of spleen and kidney deficiency，blood stasis and dampness turbidity were randomly assigned into a control group and a treatment group，with 40 patients in each group. The control group received conventional basic treatment and Western medicine symptomatic treatment，while the treatment group received combined intervention with Shenshuai Guanchang prescription through retention enema in addition to the treatment of the control group. Both groups had a treatment course of 4 weeks. The two groups were compared regarding the changes in urine toxin indicators ［p-cresyl sulfate （PCS） and trimethylamine oxide （TMAO）］，intestinal barrier indicators ［D-lactic acid （D-LA），lipopolysaccharide （LPS），and intestinal fatty acid-binding protein （I-FABP）］，renal function indicators ［serum creatinine （SCr），blood urea nitrogen （BUN），and estimated glomerular filtration rate （eGFR）］，and micro-inflammatory state indicators ［interleukin-6 （IL-6），tumor necrosis factor-α （TNF-α），and neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio （NLR）］ before and after treatment. The therapeutic effects were evaluated from three aspects：The efficacy regarding traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） symptom scores，the efficacy regarding laboratory indicators，and comprehensive efficacy. The safety of the clinical research drugs used by both groups of patients was also observed. ResultsA total of 37 cases in the treatment group and 38 cases in the control group completed the observation. After treatment，the treatment group showed declined levels of PCS，TMAO，D-LA，SCr，TNF-α，and NLR，spleen and kidney deficiency symptom score，blood stasis and dampness symptom score，and total symptom score （P<0.05），and increased eGFR （P<0.05）. Moreover，the treatment group had lower levels of PCS，TMAO，D-LA，I-FABP，IL-6，and TNF-α，spleen and kidney deficiency symptom score，blood stasis and dampness symptom score，and total symptom score （P<0.05），higher response rate regarding TCM symptoms （χ²=6.68，P<0.05），and higher comprehensive efficacy （χ²=4.08，P<0.05） than the control group. No significant abnormalities were observed in the safety indicators of the two groups of patients. During the treatment period，adverse reactions were reduced after symptomatic treatment，and no serious adverse reactions occurred. ConclusionShenshuai Guanchang prescription can alleviate the clinical symptoms，improve the intestinal barrier function，reduce non-indole-type uremic toxins，alleviate the micro-inflammatory state，and has good clinical application safety of non-dialysis patients with CKD stage 4-5.

ObjectiveTo investigate the protective effect of Rehmanniae Radix iridoid glycosides （RIG） on the kidney tissue of streptozotocin （STZ）-induced diabetic mice and explore the underlying mechanism. MethodsTwelve of 72 male C57BL/6J mice were randomly selected as the normal group， and the remaining 60 mice were fed with a high-fat diet for six weeks combined with injection of 60 mg·kg^-1 STZ for 4 days to model type 2 diabetes mellitus. The successfully modeled mice were randomized into model， metformin （250 mg·kg^-1）， catalpol （100 mg·kg^-1）， low-dose RIG （RIG-L， 200 mg·kg^-1） and high-dose RIG （RIG-H， 400 mg·kg^-1） groups （n=11）. Mice in each group were administrated with corresponding drugs， while those in the normal group and model group were administrated with the same dose of distilled water by gavage once a day. After 8 weeks of intervention， an oral glucose tolerance test （OGTT） was performed， and the area under the curve （AUC） was calculated. After mice were sacrificed， both kidneys were collected. The body weight， kidney weight， and fasting blood glucose （FBG） were measured. Biochemical assays were performed to measure the serum levels of triglycerides （TG）， total cholesterol （TC）， serum creatinine （SCr）， and blood urea nitrogen （BUN）. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay （ELISA） was employed to determine the serum level of fasting insulin （FINS）， and the insulin sensitivity index （ISI） and homeostatic model assessment for insulin resistance （HOMA-IR） were calculated. The pathological changes in kidneys of mice were observed by hematoxylin-eosin staining and Masson staining. The immunohistochemical method （IHC） was employed to assess the expression of interleukin-1 （IL-1）， interleukin-6 （IL-6）， tumor necrosis factor-α（TNF-α）， transforming growth factor-β₁ （TGF-β₁）， and collagen-3 （ColⅢ） in the kidney tissue. The protein levels of TGF-β₁， cell signal transduction molecule 3 （Smad3）， matrix metalloproteinase-9 （MMP-9）， and ColⅢ in kidneys of mice were determined by Western blot. ResultsCompared with the normal group， the model group showcased decreased body weight and ISI （P<0.01）， increased kidney weight， FBG， AUC， FINS， HOMA-IR， TC， TG， SCr， and BUN （P<0.01）， glomerular hypertrophy， capsular space narrowing， and collagen deposition in the kidney， up-regulated protein levels of IL-1， IL-6， TNF-α， TGF-β₁， ColⅢ， and Smad3 （P<0.01）， and down-regulated protein level of MMP-9 （P<0.01） in the kidney tissue. Compared with the model group， the treatment groups had no significant difference in the body weight and decreased kidney weight （P<0.05， P<0.01）. The FBG level declined in the RIG-H group after treatment for 4-8 weeks and in the metformin， catalpol， and RIG-L groups after treatment for 6-8 weeks （P<0.01）. The AUC in the RIG-L， RIG-H， and metformin groups decreased （P<0.05， P<0.01）. The levels of TC， SCr， and BUN in the serum of mice in each treatment group became lowered （P<0.05， P<0.01）. The level of TG declined in the RIG-L， RIG-H， and metformin groups （P<0.05， P<0.01）. The serum level of FINS declined in the catalpol， RIG-L， and metformin groups （P<0.01）. Compared with the model group， the treatment groups showed decreased HOMA-IR （P<0.01）， increased ISI （P<0.01）， alleviated pathological changes in the kidney tissue， and down-regulated expression of IL-1 and TGF-β₁. In addition， the protein levels of IL-6， TNF-α， and ColⅢ in the RIG-H and metformin groups and IL-6 and TNF-α in the RIG-L group were down-regulated （P<0.05， P<0.01）， and the protein levels of IL-6， TNF-α， and ColⅢ in the catalpol group and ColⅢ in the RIG-L group showed a decreasing trend without statistical difference. The protein levels of TGF-β₁， Smad3， and ColⅢ in the RIG-H and metformin groups were down-regulated （P<0.01）. Compared with that in the model group， the protein level of MMP-9 was up-regulated in each treatment group （P<0.01）. ConclusionRIG can improve the renal structure and function of diabetic mice by regulating the TGF-β₁/Smads signaling pathway.

The research of damp-heat syndrome in modern TCM mainly focuses on inflammatory response, water metabolism, lipid metabolism, hemorheology, intestinal flora and so on. Modern omics techniques such as metabolomics and genomics provide a new perspective for the exploration of the micro-mechanism of damp-heat syndrome. The study found that the abnormal expression of aquaporin is closely related to the formation of "dampness" in damp-heat syndrome, and the release of inflammatory factors reflects the pathological characteristics of "heat". Damp-heat syndrome is often accompanied by dyslipidemia, hemorheological changes and intestinal flora imbalance, showing characteristic changes in urine, blood and saliva metabolomics, and there are differences in gene expression between damp-heat constitution and gentleness constitution. In the future, the pertinence and systematicness of research should be strengthened, the relationship between indicators should be deeply explored, build a biomarker system should be built, the immune-metabolic regulation mechanism should be explored, the multi-target mechanism of heat-clearing and dampness-removing Chinese materia medica should be clarified to further improve the damp-heat syndrome system, and provide theoretical support for clinical treatment.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effectiveness of using 3 hollow compression screws combined with 1 screw off-axis fixation under the guidance of three-dimensional (3D) printed guide plate with mortise-tenon joint structure (mortise-tenon joint plate) for the treatment of Pauwels type Ⅲ femoral neck fractures. METHODS: A clinical data of 78 patients with Pauwels type Ⅲ femoral neck fractures, who were admitted between August 2022 and August 2023 and met the selection criteria, was retrospectively analyzed. The operations were assisted with mortise-tenon joint plates in 26 cases (mortise-tenon joint plate group) and traditional guide plates in 28 cases (traditional plate group), and without guide plates in 24 cases (control group). There was no significant difference in the baseline data of gender, age, body mass index, cause of injury, and fracture side between groups ( P>0.05). The operation time, intraoperative blood loss, frequency of intraoperative fluoroscopy, incision length, incidence of postoperative deep vein thrombosis of lower extremity, pain visual analogue scale (VAS) score at 1 week after operation, and Harris score of hip joint at 3 months after operation were recorded and compared. X-ray re-examination was taken to check the quality of fracture reduction, fracture healing, and the shortening length of the femoral neck at 3 months after operation, and the incidences of internal fixation failure and osteonecrosis of the femoral head during operation. RESULTS: Compared with the control group, the operation time, intraoperative blood loss, and frequency of intraoperative fluoroscopy reduced in the two plate groups, and the quality of fracture reduction was better, but the incision was longer, and the differences were significant ( P<0.05). The operation time and intraoperative blood loss were significantly higher in the traditional plate group than in the mortise-tenon joint plate group ( P<0.05), the incision was significantly longer ( P<0.05); and the difference in fracture reduction quality and the frequency of intraoperative fluoroscopy was not significant between two plate groups ( P>0.05). There was 1 case of deep vein thrombosis of lower extremity in the traditional plate group and 1 case in the control group, while there was no thrombosis in the mortise-tenon joint plate group. There was no significant difference in the incidence between groups ( P>0.05). All patients were followed up 12-15 months (mean, 13 months). There was no significant difference in VAS score at 1 week and Harris score at 3 months between groups ( P>0.05). Compared with the control group, the fracture healing time and the length of femoral neck shortening at 3 months after operation were significantly shorter in the two plate groups ( P<0.05). There was no significant difference between the two plate groups ( P>0.05). There was no significant difference in the incidences of non-union fractures, osteonecrosis of the femoral head, or internal fixation failure between groups ( P>0.05). CONCLUSION For Pauwels type Ⅲ femoral neck fractures, the use of 3D printed guide plate assisted reduction and fixation can shorten the fracture healing time, reduce the incidence of postoperative complications, and be more conducive to the early functional exercise of the affected limb. Compared with the traditional guide plate, the mortise-tenon joint plate can reduce the intraoperative bleeding and shorten the operation time.

Objective:To identify proteins associated with the risk of gastric cancer (GC) and build a protein risk score for risk prediction of GC based on proteomic analysis.Methods:Gastric mucosal proteomics data were used to construct Dataset One, comprising 94 GC cases and 230 individuals with different stages of gastric mucosal lesions. The GC cases were recruited from the National Upper Gastrointestinal Cancer Early Detection (UGCED) Program in Linqu, Shandong Province, as well as clinical patients from the Fifth Medical Center, General Hospital of PLA, and Peking University Cancer Hospital. Non-cancer individuals were enrolled from the National UGCED Program in Linqu and community screening programs at the Dongfang Hospital. All participants were pathologically confirmed. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was employed to identify gastric mucosal proteins significantly associated with GC risk. Subsequently, plasma proteomics data from the UK Biobank Pharma Proteomics Project (UKB-PPP) were used to construct Dataset Two, including 40 baseline GC cases and 47 933 non-cancer individuals, and Dataset Three, comprising 138 incident GC cases and 47 933 non-cancer individuals during a prospective follow-up period. In Dataset Two, multivariate logistic regression analysis was conducted to assess associations between plasma protein levels and baseline GC risk. In Dataset Three, multivariate Cox regression analysis was used to examine associations with the risk of incident GC. A poly-protein risk score (PRS) was developed using a weighted summation method based on protein effect sizes from Dataset Two. Its associations with GC risk and the progression of gastric mucosal lesions were evaluated using linear regression trend tests.Results:A total of 324, 47 973 and 48 071 participants were included in Datasets One, Two, and Three, respectively. Across the three datasets, the proportions of males and individuals aged>60 years were higher in the GC group than in the non-GC group (all P values<0.05). The follow-up period in Dataset Three had a M ( P 25, P 75) of 14.47 (13.7, 15.2) years, with a median of 7.4 (4.6, 11.3) years for those who progressed to GC. Based on Dataset One, 2 524 tissue-differential proteins associated with GC risk were identified through multivariate logistic regression analysis adjusted for age and sex. Among these, seven proteins were consistently associated with GC risk across tissue and plasma levels in Datasets Two and Three, with consistent directions of association. Five proteins (MRC1, APOL1, BST2, PON2, and GGH) were positively associated with GC risk, while two (GSN and CLEC3B) were negatively associated. Analysis of the PRS based on these seven proteins showed that for each standard deviation increase in the tissue-derived PRS, the risk of GC increased by 6.26 times (95% CI: 4.02-9.75). In Dataset Two, each standard deviation increase in the plasma-derived PRS was associated with a 2.13-fold increase in GC risk (95% CI: 1.68-2.69). In the prospective cohort of Dataset Three, individuals in the high PRS group had a 2.27-fold higher risk of GC compared to the low PRS group (95% CI: 1.50-3.45). Moreover, each standard deviation increase in the plasma PRS was associated with a 57% higher risk of GC ( HR=1.57, 95% CI: 1.34-1.84). Additionally, the tissue-derived PRS showed an increasing trend with the progression of gastric mucosal lesions. Conclusion:The tissue and plasma proteomics identified seven individual proteins that may indicate the risk of developing gastric cancer, showing the potential as biomarkers for aiding in the screening of gastric cancer.
