Objective To study the five-year survival status and influencing factors of elderly patients with lung cancer complicated with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Methods A cohort study was conducted to follow up 450 patients with lung cancer and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease who were hospitalized in our hospital from January 2018 to December 2023. The endpoint of the follow-up was the end of a five-year period or death. The Life Tables method was used to calculate survival rates and plot survival curves. The Cox proportional hazards model was used to analyze the influencing factors of five-year survival. Results The results indicated that the overall five-year survival rate of patients was 4.89%, and it decreased year by year. Cox regression analysis showed that age, gender, family functioning, and psychological status significantly influenced patient survival rate (all P<0.05). Stratified analysis found that the smoking status, family functioning, and psychological status of male patients all had an impact on survival rate (all P<0.05), while the psychological status of female patients had a more significant impact on survival (P=0.008). Conclusion This study provides a scientific basis for comprehensive intervention of elderly lung cancer patients with COPD. It is recommended that clinical attention should be paid to psychological and family factors to improve patient prognosis.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the mechanism of pachymic acid on renal injury in pregnancy induced hypertension （PIH） rats by regulating the silent information regulator transcript 1/peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ coactivator-1α （Sirt1/PGC-1α） pathway. METHODS Pregnant SD rats were prepared by co-caging and PIH model was induced using N-nitro-L- arginine methyl ester （L-NAME） method. PIH rats were randomly divided into model group， L-pachymic acid （low-dose pachymic acid， 10 mg/kg） group， H-pachymic acid （high-dose pachymic acid， 20 mg/kg） group， and H-pachymic acid+EX527 （20 mg/kg pachymic acid+10 mg/kg EX527） group， with 6 rats in each group. Another 6 normal pregnant rats were selected as blank group. Each group was given relevant medicine or solvent intragastrically or intraperitoneally daily， once a day， for 28 consecutive days. After the last administration， 24 h urinary protein and tail artery systolic blood pressure （SBP） were measured in pregnant rats from each group， along with the levels of serum creatinine （Scr）， blood urea nitrogen （BUN），uric acid （UA）， and cystatin C （Cys-C）. The contents of superoxide dismutase （SOD）， malondialdehyde （MDA）， glutathione peroxidase （GSH-Px）， and 8-hydroxy-2′-deoxyguanosine （8-OHdG） in renal tissue， as well as the mRNA and protein expression levels of Sirt1 and PGC-1α， were also determined. Meanwhile， renal histopathological changes in rats from each group were evaluated using hematoxylin-eosin （HE） staining and periodic acid-Schiff （PAS） staining. RESULTS Compared with model group， L-pachymic acid group and H-pachymic acid group exhibited significant decreases in 24 h urine protein quantification， tail artery SBP， Scr， BUN， UA， Cys-C levels， glomerulosclerosis index score of renal tissue， renal tubular injury score， the percentage of PAS positive area， MDA and 8-OHdG （P＜0.05）. Conversely， the contents of SOD and GSH-Px， along with the mRNA and protein expression levels of Sirt1 and PGC-1α， were significantly increased （P＜0.05）. Moreover， these improvements were more pronounced in H-pachymic acid group （P＜0.05）. Compared with H-pachymic acid group， the aforementioned indicators in pregnant rats from the H-pachymic acid+EX527 group showed significant reversal （P＜0.05）. CONCLUSIONS Pachymic acid significantly ameliorates renal injury induced by PIH in rats， potentially through activation of the Sirt1/PGC-1α pathway.

Objective To explore the influencing factors of early neurological deterioration(END)in patients with acute anterior circulation large-vessel occlusive mild stroke who were treated with medications alone within 72 h after onset.Methods Retrospective consecutive data were collected of patients with acute large-vessel occlusive mild stroke who presented to the Advanced Stroke Center of Linyi People's Hospital within 24 h of onset from January 2021 to December 2022.END was defined as an increase of ≥ 4 points in the National Institutes of Health stroke scale(N1HSS)score within 72 h after onset compared to the admission score.Patients were divided into the neurological deterioration group and the stable condition group(NIHSS score did not increase or increased by 1-3 points within 72 h after onset compared to the admission score).Baseline and clinical data of all patients were collected,including sex,age,cerebrovascular disease risk factors(hypertension,diabetes mellitus,hyperlipidemia,coronary heart disease,atrial fibrillation,smoking,alcohol consumption,stroke history),NIHSS score at admission,time from onset to admission,systolic blood pressure at admission,diastolic blood pressure at admission,laboratory test indicators at admission(blood glucose,glycosylated hemoglobin,homocysteine,total cholesterol,triglyceride,low-density lipoprotein cholesterol,high-density lipoprotein cholesterol,neutrophils,lymphocytes and neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio),responsible occlusion artery(internal carotid artery,middle cerebral artery,anterior cerebral artery),affected cerebral hemisphere,collateral circulation score,and medications used within 72 h after admission(intravenous thrombolysis+dual antiplatelet therapy,tirofiban+dual antiplatelet therapy,argatroban+dual antiplatelet therapy,argatroban alone,dual antiplatelet therapy alone).Variables with statistically significant differences in univariate analysis were included in multivariate Logistic regression analysis to explore the independent influencing factors for END in patients with acute anterior circulation large-vessel occlusive mild stroke treated with medications alone.Results A total of 208 patients with acute anterior circulation large-vessel occlusive mild stroke were included,with 143 males and 65 females,aged 38-85 years,with an average age of(64±9)years.Among them,86 patients were in the neurological deterioration group and 122 in the stable condition group.(1)There were statistically significant differences between the neurological deterioration group and the stable condition group in terms of history of diabetes mellitus(39.5％[34/86]vs.17.2％[21/122]),smoking history(43.0％[37/86]vs.29.5％[36/122]),left cerebral hemisphere lesion(57.0％[49/86]vs.41.0％[50/122]),collateral circulation score(4[3,5]vs.5[4,5]),time from onset to admission(7.0[3.0,17.0]hvs.4.3[2.0,11.0]h),blood glucose at admission(7.4[5.8,10.0]mmol/L vs.6.7[5.8,7.7]mmol/L),neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio(3.8[2.4,5.1]vs.3.0[2.1,4.3]),dual antiplatelet therapy alone(19.8％[17/86]vs.6.6％[8/122]),and argatroban+dual antiplatelet therapy(8.1％[7/86]vs.29.5％[36/122];all P＜0.05).There were no statistically significant differences in the results of the remaining univariate analyses(all P＞0.05).(2)Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that diabetes mellitus(OR,2.674,95％CI 1.121-6.377,P=0.027)and left cerebral hemisphere vessel occlusion(OR,2.030,95％CI I.083-3.806,P=0.027)were independent risk factors for END in acute anterior circulation large-vessel occlusive mild stroke.Argatroban+dual antiplatelet therapy(OR,0.267,95％CI 0.116-0.613,P=0.002)and high collateral circulation score(OR,0.551,95％CI 0.368-0.824,P=0.004)were independent protective factors for END in acute anterior circulation large-vessel occlusive mild stroke.Conclusions Acute anterior circulation large-vessel occlusive mild stroke patients with diabetes mellitus or left cerebral hemisphere lesions are prone to END.The combination of argatroban and dual antiplatelet therapy and good collateral circulation can reduce the risk of END.

Hepatic fibrosis is the common key pathological link of various chronic liver diseases and can progress to malignant diseases such as liver cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma； however， there is still a lack of effective targeted therapeutic drugs at present. Traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） has a marked clinical effect in the prevention and treatment of hepatic fibrosis， yet its precise clinical application and global promotion are greatly limited by the complex components of compound prescriptions and unclear mechanism of action. In recent years， multimodal high-throughput omics technology has achieved rapid development， providing strong technical support for elaborating on the scientific connotation of TCM in the treatment of complex diseases due to its advantages of systematic profiling， big-data analytics， and precise target prediction. In particular， integrated transcriptomic， proteomic， and metabolomic strategies comprehensively elucidate key signaling networks， cellular phenotypic transitions， and extracellular matrix metabolic homeostasis modulated by TCM compounds and monomers and assist in the screening and assessment of effective component groups and novel biomarkers. This article systematically reviews the advances in basic research on TCM prevention and treatment of hepatic fibrosis based on multi-omics technologies in the past five years， summarizes the “drug-target-pathway-phenotype” regulatory network， and elaborates on the core mechanisms of TCM in regulating hepatic stellate cell activation and reversing hepatic fibrosis. Future studies should further delve into the interdisciplinary integration and dynamic analytical methodologies of multi-omics technologies， precisely identify the core regulatory target networks modulated by TCM， and systematically unravel the scientific connotation of compatibility rule in compound prescriptions， in order to provide a theoretical basis for developing efficient targeted drugs for hepatic fibrosis and individualized diagnosis and treatment strategies.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy and safety of modified pelvic floor reconstruction in non-nerve-sparing robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (NNS RARP) for improving postoperative urinary control. Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of 79 prostate cancer patients who underwent NNS RARP at Tangdu Hospital during Jan.2020 and Dec.2023, including 29 in the reconstruction group, and 50 in the non-reconstruction group. The baseline characteristics including age, body mass index, prostate-specific antigen (PSA) level, clinical stage, prostate volume, and biopsy Gleason score, and perioperative indexes including operation time, intraoperative blood loss, catheter indwelling time, complication rate, and positive rate of surgical margins were compared between the two groups. Additionally, urinary continence function was assessed before operation and 1,3,6, and 12 months after operation using the international consultation on incontinence questionnaire-short form (ICIQ-SF) and the incontinence quality of life questionnaire score (I-QoL). Results No statistically significant differences were observed in the baseline characteristics between the two groups (P>0.05). The operation time was significantly longer in the reconstruction group than in the non-reconstruction group [ (110.24±15.08) min vs. (101.80±9.89) min, P=0.010]. There were no significant differences in intraoperative blood loss, catheter indwelling time, complication rate, and positive rate of surgical margins between the two groups (P>0.05). The reconstruction group demonstrated significantly lower ICIQ-SF scores at 1 month [ (10.17±2.16) vs. (11.56±1.66), P=0.002],3 months [ (7.62±1.29) vs. (9.52±1.80), P<0.001], and 6 months postoperatively [ (4.93±1.22) vs. (6.18± 1.67), P=0.001]compared to the non-reconstruction group (adjusted P<0.0125). Conversely, the I-QoL scores were significantly higher in the reconstruction group at 1 month [ (73.32±10.30) vs. (63.88±9.55), P<0.001]and 3 months postoperatively [ (78.91±4.82) vs. (75.66±5.17), P=0.007] (adjusted P<0.0125). However, no significant differences were found in ICIQ-SF or I-QoL scores between the two groups preoperatively and 12 months postoperatively (adjusted P>0.0125). Conclusion The application of modified pelvic floor reconstruction technique in NNS RARP is safe and feasible. Although it slightly prolongs the operation time, it does not increase surgical risks; instead, it effectively promotes early recovery of postoperative urinary continence, thereby significantly enhancing patients'quality of life.

Renal tumor scoring systems can describe the anatomical characteristics of renal tumors. It is an important standard to evaluate the surgical complexity and to evaluate the surgical complexity and feasibility of partial nephrectomy. Scholars at home and abroad have established various scoring systems based on different anatomical parameters，such as R.E.N.A.L.，PADUA，C-Index，which are used to guide the clinical selection of surgical modalities，and predict perioperative complications and prognosis. In this paper，various scoring systems are grouped into three major categories according to their functions：prediction of surgical complexity，prediction of complications，and prediction of prognosis. The contents，characteristics and clinical application value of various renal tumor scoring systems are introduced in detail to guide urologists，enhance their surgical decision-making ability，and improve the clinical outcomes.
