Traditional antibody drug conjugates(ADC)combine monoclonal antibodies with cytotoxic drugs to accurately strike cancer cells,but there are still many shortcomings in stability,targeting,efficacy,and safety.Novel ADC,such as bi-specific,site-specific,dual-payload,and pro-drug type ADC,can be optimized by simultaneously binding 2 different antigens or epitopes,selecting more stable linkers,coupling with specific amino acid sites of antibodies,carrying different drug payloads,and adopting prodrug strategies,while retaining the characteristics of traditional ADC.Significantly improving the stability,targeting,efficacy and safety of drugs can better meet the needs of clinical treatment.Novel ADC will play a more important role in cancer treatment in the future.Discussing the progress of novel ADC in cancer treatment and analyzing their advantages and challenges can provide theoretical support for the development of anti-cancer strategies and provide directions for drug research and development.

This paper explores the intersection and integration of narrative medicine and clinical spiritual care,especially the importance and value of spiritual narrative in medical services.Spiritual narrative is based on the three elements of narrative medicine,combined with the professional competence of clinical spiritual care,to achieve multi-angle attention to patients'physiology,psychology,society,and spirit.The connections and situations between individuals in the disease story are reproduced in the spiritual narrative,allowing the narrator to deeply understand the relationship between themselves,others,and natural events from a more diverse perspective,thereby enhancing the role identity and professional happiness of doctors,and ultimately promoting the narrator's exploration of their own inner selves and understanding of life philosophy.Integrating narrative medicine into undergraduate teaching,research,and clinical practice of the clinical spiritual care program at Hunan Cancer Hospital,conducting spiritual narrative,is of great significance for improving the empathy and communication skills of medical students and clinical medical staff,promoting their thinking and understanding of the meaning of life,and enhancing their patient-centered clinical critical thinking ability.

Anti-tumor immunotherapy has made remarkable breakthroughs in the past few decades,demonstrating unprecedented efficacy in certain types of cancer,but the emergence of drug resistance not only limits the long-term effectiveness of immunotherapy,but can also lead to cancer recurrence and progression. Therefore,how to overcome immunotherapy resistance has become a key problem to be solved in current cancer research. Tumor-associated macrophages (TAM) have gradually become an important option and potential therapeutic target in cancer treatment in recent years. Their unique role in the tumor microenvironment (TME) makes them promising in anti-tumor therapy. For the study of TAM in cancer treatment,the current exploration includes multiple aspects and challenges. These studies not only involved the mechanism of action of TAM in different tumor types,but also covered the interaction of TAM with other immune cells and signaling pathways in TME. Therefore,this article reviews the application of TAM in anti-tumor immunotherapy,aiming to provide reference for future related studies.

Although immunotherapy has made a breakthrough in the treatment of cancer,the emergence of drug resistance has limited be-nefits in most patients,and reversing immunotherapy resistance remains a hotly debated and unresolved issue.The tumor microenviron-ment(TME)comprises a large number of T lymphocytes.During the biological processes of proliferation,activation,and the effect of tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes(TILs),TILs face severe local metabolic stress,resulting in metabolic reprogramming to meet the markedly increased energy demand and biosynthesis requirements.This process of adaptive changes in the metabolic pattern is closely related to the pheno-type and function of TILs,affecting immunotherapy efficacy and mediating immunotherapy resistance.In recent years,with the study of TIL metabolism and the search for specific metabolic regulatory points,targeting the TIL metabolic pathway could restore the tumor-killing func-tion and reverse immunotherapy resistance.This review explores the relationship between the metabolic reprogramming of TILs and im-mune resistance,and provides a new strategy for reversing immune resistance.

Objective: To establish a risk assessment system for the prevention and control of infectious diseases in primary and secondary schools in Tianjin and reduce the risk of infectious disease prevention and control through risk assessment and control. Methods: Based on the failure modes and effect analysis method, a quantitative risk assessment of infectious disease prevention and control in 45 primary and secondary schools in Tianjin was carried out. Risk based supervisory process was assessed, while control effect was evaluated for contined improvement in the prevention and control of infectious diseases in the primary and secondary schools. Results: The top three risk aspects found in the infectious disease prevention and control system in primary and secondary schools in Tianjin included failure to provide sanitation professionals (82.22%) in accordance with regulations, no hand sanitizer or disinfectant (35.56%) in wash basins, and drinking water related products without approval (28.89%). The results of the risk assessment indicated that the three risk aspects with the highest risk priority number (RPN) included failure to provide health professionals( n = 144), no morning and afternoon inspection arrangement( n =126), and low quality of morning and afternoon inspections( n =126). After optimizing the supervision measures for the risk aspects with a detectable degree≥7 points, a quantitative risk assessment was carried out again, the RPN values of all risk points fell below 125, indicating reasonable control effect. Conclusion Based on the failure mode and effect analysis method, the establishment of a risk assessment system for the prevention and control of infectious diseases in primary and secondary schools and regular risk assessments can timely detect risk aspects in the infectious disease prevention and control, to promote effective prevention of infectious diseases in schools.

The clinical application of immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) lead to dramatic changes in the treatment strategy for patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), but the efficacy of ICIs in oncogene-driven NSCLC is controversial. Existing research shows that the efficacy of ICIs may be related to different types of driver genes, programmed cell death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) level, and tumor mutational burden (TMB). It may involved in other factors, such as clinical characteristics, and immune cell density. ICIs monotherapy or combination therapy may play a role in a subset of oncogene-driven NSCLC patients, but further studies are needed to select these patients, which may be an important direction for the future development of advanced NSCLC.

Objective To investigate the effect of berberine on proliferation of neural stem cells(NSCs)induced by hydrogen peroxide(H2O2). Methods NSCs from Sprague-Dawley rats were isolated and purified by suspension culture. Cells were divided into a control group,H2O2group(NSCs exposed to H2O2injury),berberine group(NSCs were incubated with berberine concentrations ranging from 0.5 to 20 μmol/L and exposed to H2O2), and DAPT(a blocker of the Notch signaling pathway)group. Cell viability was evaluated using the Cell Counting Kit-8 assay. Proliferation of NSCs was evaluated by a neurosphere formation assay and Ki67 protein expression. Expression of key proteins in the Notch signaling pathway(including notch1 and hes1)in response to berberine treatment or DAPT(a Notch inhibitor)was determined by Western blotting. Results Cell viability of NSCs was significantly increased by berberine compared with the H2O2group. The neurosphere growth assay showed that 5 or 10 μmol/L berberine increased NSC proliferation. The ratio of Ki67 +/DAPI cells and notch1 and hes1 protein expression increased significantly compared with the H2O2group. Conclusions Berberine treatment upregulates Notch signaling in NSCs,whereas DAPT attenuates these effects. Berberine is a drug that promotes NSC proliferation and exerts a protective effect on NSCs via the Notch signaling pathway.
