OBJECTIVE To systematically evaluate the influencing factors affecting the poor prognosis of drug-induced liver injury (DILI) in the Chinese population, and to provide evidence-based support for early identification and interventions of DILI. METHODS Retrieved from PubMed, Medline, Embase, the Cochrane Library, CNKI, Wanfang database, China biomedical medicine database (CBM) and VIP, clinical studies (case-control studies, cohort studies) related to influencing factors for poor prognosis of DILI were collected from inception to May 31, 2025. After literature screening, data extraction and quality evaluation of included studies, meta-analysis was carried out by using RevMan 5.4 software. RESULTS A total of 17 literature were included, involving 4 078 DILI patients, of whom 673 were in the poor prognosis group and 3 405 were in the favorable prognosis group. Meta-analysis showed that history of liver disease (OR=2.47, 95%CI was 1.61-3.78, P <0.001), alcohol drinking history (OR=1.77, 95%CI was 1.22-2.56, P =0.003), Chinese herbal medicine/Chinese patent medicine (OR=1.87, 95%CI was 1.30-2.70, P <0.001), non-hepatocellular injury type (OR=1.70, 95%CI was 1.37-2.10, P <0.001), international normalized ratio (INR) elevated (OR=2.51, 95%CI was 1.97-3.19, P <0.001), and alanine transamine (ALT) elevated (OR=1.27, 95%CI was 1.14-1.41, P <0.001) were risk factors of poor prognosis in DILI. Higher albumin (ALB) level (OR=0.47, 95%CI was 0.39-0.57, P <0.001), elevated prothrombin activity (PTA) (OR=0.88, 95%CI was 0.85-0.91, P <0.001) and more than 2 kinds of hepatoprotective drugs (OR=0.62, 95%CI was 0.41-0.95, P =0.030) were protective factors for poor prognosis of DILI. CONCLUSIONS Patients with alcohol drinking history, history of liver disease, elevated INR, elevated ALT, taking Chinese herbal medicine/Chinese patent medicine, and non-hepatocellular injury type of DILI have a greater risk of poor prognosis, and higher ALB level, higher PTA and more than 2 kinds of hepatoprotective drugs can reduce the risk of poor prognosis of DILI.

Objective To explore the impact of number of positive regional lymph nodes (nPRLN) in N1 stage on the prognosis of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients. Methods Patients with TxN1M0 stage NSCLC who underwent lobectomy and mediastinal lymph node dissection from 2010 to 2015 were screened from SEER database (17 Regs, 2022nov sub). The optimal cutoff value of nPRLN was determined using X-tile software, and patients were divided into 2 groups according to the cutoff value: a nPRLN≤optimal cutoff group and a nPRLN>optimal cutoff group. The influence of confounding factors was minimized by propensity score matching (PSM) at a ratio of 1 : 1. Kaplan-Meier curves and Cox proportional hazards models were used to evaluate overall survival (OS) and lung cancer-specific survival (LCSS) of patients. Results A total of 1316 patients with TxN1M0 stage NSCLC were included, including 662 males and 654 females, with a median age of 67 (60, 73) years. The optimal cutoff value of nPRLN was 3, with 1165 patients in the nPRLN≤3 group and 151 patients in the nPRLN>3 group. After PSM, there were 138 patients in each group. Regardless of before or after PSM, OS and LCSS of patients in the nPRLN≤3 group were superior to those in the nPRLN>3 group (P<0.001). N1 stage nPRLN>3 was an independent prognostic risk factor for OS [HR=1.52, 95%CI (1.22, 1.89), P<0.001] and LCSS [HR=1.72, 95%CI (1.36, 2.18), P<0.001]. Conclusion N1 stage nPRLN>3 is an independent prognostic risk factor for NSCLC patients in TxN1M0 stage, which may provide new evidence for future revision of TNM staging N1 stage subclassification.

OBJECTIVE To systematically evaluate the influential factors for all-cause mortality in patients with carbapenem-resistant Gram-negative bacteria (CR-GNB) treated with polymyxin B. METHODS PubMed, Embase, the Cochrane Library, Web of Science, Wanfang Data, VIP, CBM and CNKI were searched to collect clinical studies on all-cause death within 30 days or 28 days after treatment with polymyxin B in patients with CR-GNB infection from database establishment to July 2025. After literature screening, data extraction and evaluation of literature quality, meta-analysis was performed using RevMan 5.4 software. RESULTS A total of 12 studies were included, involving 1 326 patients, among whom 529 patients died, with a mortality rate of 39.89%. Meta-analysis results showed that combined with cardiovascular disease [OR=2.06, 95%CI (1.37, 3.09), P =0.005 ] , increased Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (SOFA) score [OR=1.20, 95%CI (1.07, 1.35), P =0.003 ] , mechanical ventilation [OR=2.35, 95%CI (1.65, 3.34), P <0.001 ] , continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) [OR=2.58, 95%CI (1.67, 3.97), P <0.001 ] , bloodstream infection [OR=3.24, 95%CI (2.19, 4.78), P <0.001 ] , multiple-site infection [OR=1.51, 95%CI (1.03, 2.20), P =0.03 ] , septic shock [OR=3.19, 95%CI (1.94, 5.24), P <0.001 ] , use of vasoactive drugs [OR=2.90, 95%CI (1.97, 4.27), P <0.001 ] , and the occurrence of acute kidney injury (AKI) [OR=2.17, 95%CI (1.41, 3.36), P <0.001 ] were risk factors for all-cause mortality in patients with CR-GNB infection treated with polymyxin B. Conversely, an extended duration of polymy xin B treatment [OR=0.92, 95%CI (0.86, 0.99), P =0.03 ] and early administration after CR-GNB infection [OR=0.47, 95%CI (0.25, 0.85), P =0.01 ] were protective factors. CONCLUSIONS Patients with cardiovascular disease, receiving mechanical ventilation or CRRT, having bloodstream infection, multiple-site infection or septic shock, combining with vasoactive drugs, with AKI and increased SOFA scores have a higher risk of all-cause mortality. Conversely, extending the duration of polymyxin B treatment (beyond 7 days) and early administration within 48 hours after confirmed CR-GNB infection can significantly reduce the risk of all-cause mortality.

Under the trend of increasing aging, integrated elderly care and medical services is an important measure to optimize the supply of elderly care services and promote the good death of the elderly. Using the cooperative production theory and the classical grounded theory, a qualitative analysis was conducted on 38 cases of elderly palliative care and 25 cases of hospital-based palliative care under the integrated elderly care and medical services model from a hospital in Nanning City using Nvivo 20.0 software. This paper found that the integrated elderly care and medical services mode emphasized the deep integration of medical and elderly care services by integrating resources and improving service efficiency, to achieve the basic experience of comprehensive health care for the elderly. The promotion of these experiences has a positive significance for building a multi-agent cooperative production system, strengthening personnel training, perfecting the performance distribution mechanism, and further promoting the development of the national palliative care pilot.

The aim of this updated guideline is to provide comprehensive recommendations for the management of gout in patients with common comorbidities, such as chronic kidney disease(CKD), cardiovascular disease(CVD), diabetes, osteoarthritis(OA), and gastrointestinal disorders. This guideline was developed by a multidisciplinary expert panel consisting of specialists in endocrinology, rheumatology, nephrology, cardiology, gastroenterology, and methodology. The development process adhered to standard methodologies, including PICO(population, intervention, comparator, and outcomes) question deconstruction, systematic literature review, the Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development and Evaluation(GRADE) for evidence and recommendation evaluation, Delphi voting, and expert consensus. The guideline presents 26 evidence-based recommendations addressing 7 clinical questions for patients with hyperuricemia and gout in the context of comorbidities. Key recommendations include the maintenance of strict serum urate targets, particularly for patients with CKD stage≥3, chronic gouty arthritis, and OA, in order to prevent disease progression. In patients with CVD or diabetes, intra-articular triamcinolone is preferred over systemic glucocorticoids. Prioritized anti-inflammatory treatments for patients with CKD, gastrointestinal diseases and OA are recommended. The guideline also introduces emerging therapies, such as interleukin-1 inhibitors and selective urate transport inhibitors, as potential treatment options for refractory cases. The update offers a comprehensive, patient-centered approach to managing gout, particularly in individuals with associated comorbidities. Multidisciplinary collaboration and emerging new treatments and evidence ensure the optimization of the recommendations.

Dent disease is a rare X-linked recessive renal tubular disease characterized by low molecular weight proteinuria,hypercalcemia and nephrocalcinosis. It is also a major cause of tubular proteinuria in children. According to different causative genes,Dent disease can be divided into three types:type 1 is caused by mutations in the CLCN5 gene,accounting for about 60%-70%;type 2 is caused by mutations in the OCRL gene,accounting for about 15%-20%;type 3 has a similar clinical phenotype but no known pathogenic gene mutations. CLCN5 encodes the voltage-dependent 2Cl -/1H +exchange channel CIC-5,which is involved in proximal renal tubule endocytosis. Its mutations can cause a variety of proximal tubular dysfunction symptoms,mainly including low molecular weight proteinuria. The use of gene detection technology has resulted in an increase in reports on Dent disease year after year. At present,the specific mechanism underlying Dent disease remains unknown. This article reviews the research progress of CLCN5,hoping to provide new insight for the mechanism research of CLCN5 and the specific treatment of Dent disease type 1.

To identify factors associated with the recurrence of polymyalgia rheumatica(PMR) within one year. This study included 64 patients diagnosed with PMR at Peking Union Medical College Hospital between January 2019 and June 2024. The baseline characteristics of patients with and without recurrence were compared, and logistic regression analysis was performed to identify risk factors for recurrence. The mean age at onset was 65.1±7.9 years, with a male-to-female ratio of 1:3.3. The average duration from onset to diagnosis was 4.5±3.7 months. At baseline, the average erythrocyte sedimentation rate(ESR) was 67.0±29.2 mm/h, with 11 patients(17.2%) having an ESR > 100 mm/h, and the average C-reactive protein(CRP) level was 57.9±51.3 mg/L. Corticosteroids were used as the initial treatment in 95.3% of patients, with an average dose of 21.6±11.6 mg/day. During the 12-month follow-up, 35.9% of patients experienced recurrence, with the median time to first recurrence being 8.2±3.3 months.The cumulative recurrence rates at 3, 6, 9, and 12 months were 6.3%, 14.1%, 25%, and 35.9%, respectively. Comparisons between patients with and without recurrence revealed significant differences in age(68.7±6.5 The one-year recurrence rate of PMR is 35.9%. Older age and lower serum albumin levels are associated with recurrence, and age may be associated with disease recurrence within one year.
