METHODS The ethanol extract of L. litseifolius leaves， as well as the gastric lavage fluid and perfusion solution were prepared. Using rats as subjects， plasma samples of intestinal wall metabolism， intestinal flora metabolism and hepatic metabolism were prepared via in situ intestinal perfusion and closed intestinal loop method； while comprehensive metabolic plasma samples， brain tissue samples， and cerebrospinal fluid samples were collected after intragastric administration. UPLC-HRMS technology was utilized to analyze and identify chemical components and prototype components absorbed into blood and brain of L. litseifolius leaves. RESULTS A total of 66 chemical constituents were identified in L. litseifolius leaves， primarily consisting of flavonoids， organic acids， and others. A total of 16， 13， 11， and 5 prototype components were identified in intestinal wall metabolism， intestinal flora metabolism， hepatic metabolism， and comprehensive metabolic plasma samples， respectively. Additionally， 4 prototype components were detected in brain tissue and 9 in cerebrospinal fluid. Phloridzin， trilobatin， phloretin-2- O -malonyl hexoside， and phloretin were identified as common components across all sample types. CONCLUSIONS Prototype components absorbed into blood and brain of L. litseifolius leaves， such as phloridzin， trilobatin， phloretin， and other components may serve as the pharmacological material basis for their therapeutic effects on central nervous system diseases.

This paper introduces a real-world cohort research model for community-acquired pneumonia （CAP） based on the Jiangsu Traditional Chinese Medicine （TCM） Dominant Diseases Diagnosis and Treatment Data Platform. Firstly， data cleaning is performed by standardizing diagnosis， symptoms， treatment and imaging， intelligently extracting unstructured information， and cleaning and constructing a standardized database. Secondly， for cohort establishment， CAP patients across the province are screened in accordance with CAP diagnostic criteria to build a high-quality disease-specific cohort. Lastly， in terms of protocol design， the characteristics of TCM research and the CAP disease profile are considered to determine appropriate inclusion and exclusion criteria， estimate sample size， define interventions， outcomes and economic evaluations， providing a reference for real-world TCM research on CAP.

Low anterior resection syndrome （LARS） is a common complication of sphincter-preserving rectal cancer surgery， and its manifestations change dynamically at different stages. By analyzing and summarizing the clinical symptoms and pathomechanism evolution of LARS across different stages， this paper proposes a staged prevention and treatment strategy using acupuncture. During perioperative stage， the main principle is activating the transport function of the body， supplemented by regulating the mind， with the use of dredging the bowels as needed. During the stoma reversal stage， treatment focuses primarily on fortifying the spleen， with draining dampness as a supplementary method， to help consolidate the intestines. During the radiotherapy or chemotherapy stage， the main focus is reinfor-cing healthy qi， with reducing toxin as an adjunct， to achieve the effect of activating the transport of the pivot. During the survival management stage， treatment primarily focuses on tonifying the kidneys and secondarily on fortifying the spleen， with regulating the corporeal soul as the therapeutic emphasis. Acupoints are selected and combined in accordance with the treatment principles at each stage， and different stimulation methods such as electroacupuncture and moxibustion are applied. An analysis of the mechanisms underlying acupuncture for LARS is also provided， offering a theoretical basis and practical approach for the prevention and treatment of LARS with acupuncture.

Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease （ADPKD） is a systemic hereditary renal disorder and can affect multiple organs， and congenital hepatic fibrosis is one of the manifestations of liver involvement and is an important complication of ADPKD. Symptomatic management is currently the main treatment method for this disease， and disease-specific drugs such as tolvaptan have limited indications and cannot correct the underlying genetic defect. This article reports a case of ADPKD with congenital hepatic fibrosis， and sirolimus was identified as the individualized treatment regimen based on peripheral blood functional genomic analysis and drug sensitivity prediction platform. The patient achieved significant improvements in symptoms and quality of life after treatment， with a stable kidney volume. This case shows that functional genomics has a potential value in guiding individualized treatment of rare genetic disorders， which provides new treatment ideas and practice paths for similar patients.

Endocrine therapy is mainly used as preoperative neoadjuvant therapy and postoperative adjuvant therapy for breast cancer patients and as salvage therapy for advanced breast cancer patients.Osteoporosis is the common adverse reaction of endocrine therapy for breast cancer,which seriously affects the quality of life of the patients.The theory of"liver and kidney sharing the common source"is closely related to the etiology,pathogenesis and therapeutic principle of osteoporosis.It is believed that the pathogenesis of endocrine therapy associated osteoporosis in breast cancer is most closely related to liver and kidney,and is characterized by deficiency in origin and excess in superficiality.Deficiency in origin manifests as deficiency of liver and kidney,and excess in superficiality manifests as blood stasis blocking collaterals.Chinese herbal medicine with the actions of nourishing liver and kidney can be used for interventions of various stages of endocrine therapy for breast cancer.In the stage of preoperative neoadjuvant therapy,Chinese herbal medicine intervention focuses on inhibiting cancer,so as to achieve synergistic anticancer actions with neoadjuvant therapy;the intervention can also be supplemented by medicine for supporting healthy qi with modified Liuwei Dihuang Pills,thus to reduce the incidence of adverse reactions.In the stage of postoperative adjuvant therapy,Chinese herbal medicine intervention focuses on supporting healthy qi,so as to promote the recovery of body functions and prevent the occurrence of osteoporosis,and modified treatment with Duhuo Jisheng Decoction or Zuogui Pills can be chosen.In the advanced stage of salvage treatment,Chinese herbal medicine intervention focuses on supporting healthy qi,and medicines for nourishing liver and kidney,strengthening muscles and bones,and activating qi and blood circulation to relieve pain can be chosen;in addition,medicinals with affinity to flesh and blood can be added to enhance the actions of nourishing liver and kidney.

Objective To study the changes of lipid peroxidation and antioxidant capacity in patients with hypercholesterolemia.Methods A total of 100 patients with elevated cholesterol treated in the People's Hospital of Qitaihe from January to May 2024 were included in hypercholesterolemia group,and another 80 people with normal blood lipid in the hospital during the same period were included in control group.Malondialdehyde(MDA),glutathione(GSH),glutathione reductase(GR)and total antioxidant capacity(TAC)were determined in all subjects.Results The levels of total cholesterol,low density lipoprotein-cholesterol and MDA in hypercholesterolemia group were significantly higher than those in control group,while the levels of GSH,GR and TAC were significantly lower than those in control group(P＜0.05).Conclusion Patients with hypercholesterolemia have severe lipid peroxidation,which may cause vascular endothelial cell damage.

Objective:To compare the preliminary efficacy and adverse events of chemoradiotherapy (CRT) with or without immunotherapy in bladder preservation therapy for localized muscle-invasive bladder cancer (MIBC) confined to the pelvis.Methods:Clinical data of 60 patients with MIBC who received CRT with or without immunotherapy for bladder preservation at the Cancer Hospital, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences from January 2016 to June 2024 were retrospectively analyzed. Patients were divided into CRT plus immunotherapy group and CRT-alone group. Survival outcomes, bladder function preservation, recurrence and metastasis, as well as early and late radiation toxicities were evaluated. The Mann-Whitney U test was used for between-group comparisons. Overall survival (OS), progression-free survival (PFS), local recurrence-free survival (LRFS), and distant metastasis-free survival (DMFS) were estimated by the Kaplan-Meier method, and survival rates were compared by the log-rank test. Results:In the CRT plus immunotherapy group ( n=23), the median follow-up was 20 months. The median OS and median PFS were not reached. The 2-year OS, PFS, LRFS, and DMFS rates were 95.7%, 70.7%, 70.7%, and 92.9%, respectively, and 22 patients (96%) preserved normal bladder function. Patients with programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) combined positive score (CPS) ≥1 had significantly higher 1-year PFS rate than those with CPS <1 (100% vs. 66.7%, P=0.004). In the CRT-alone group ( n=37), the median follow-up was 37 months, with median OS and PFS of 68 and 19 months, respectively. The 2-year OS, PFS, LRFS, and DMFS rates were 92.0%, 41.1%, 60.9% and 81.5%, respectively, and 33 patients (89%) preserved normal bladder function. Compared with the CRT-alone group, the CRT plus immunotherapy group showed a significant improvement in PFS ( χ2=4.38, P=0.036), while no significant differences were observed in OS, LRFS, or DMFS (all P>0.05). The incidence of acute hematologic toxicity in the CRT plus immunotherapy group and CRT-alone group were 52% (12/23), 27% (10/37) respectively, and late genitourinary toxicity was 22% (5/23), 8% (3/37), respectively, with no significant differences in overall acute or late toxicities (all P>0.05). Conclusions:For localized MIBC, bladder preservation with CRT combined with immunotherapy significantly improves PFS compared with CRT alone, while maintaining comparable safety. The PD-L1 status may serve as a favorable predictor for immunotherapy efficacy.

OBJECTIVE To evaluate the economic burden of the intensive care unit(ICU)patients due to hospital-associated multidrug-resistant organisms(MDROs)infections based on propensity score matching(PSM)so as to provide evidence-based bases for prevention and control of hospital-associated MDROs infection and improvement of utilization efficiency of medical resources.METHODS A total of 2118 patients who were hospitalized in Zibo Central Hospital from Jan.1,2023 to Dec.31,2024 and conformed to the inclusion and exclusion criteria were re-cruited as the research subjects.The patients with hospital-associated MDROs infections were matched in a 1∶1 ratio by PSM(with the clamp value 0.02).Totally 309 pairs were successfully matched.The length of hospital stay and the costs were observed and compared between the MDROs group and the non-MDROs group.RESULTS The MDROs group was with the length of hospital stay 14.00 days longer than the non-MDROs group after the matching(Z=-5.750,P＜0.001),with the total cost of hospitalization increased by 91,420.84 yuan(Z=-8.271,P＜0.001).With the respect to the medical treatment expenses,the expenses of the MDROs group were higher than those of the non-MDROs group,covering the cost of medical service,therapeutic procedures,nursing,western medicine and TCM,and there were significant differences(P＜0.05).Among the differences in the costs between the two groups,the difference in the cost of western medicine was the most signif-icant(22,182.91 yuan),followed by the cost of clinical laboratory test for diagnosis(19,529.60 yuan)and the cost of therapeutic procedures(16,333.50 yuan).CONCLUSIONS The hospital-associated MDROs infections may lead to the extension of hospital stay length of the ICU patients,which then increases the economic burden.There-fore,it is necessary to strengthen the multidisciplinary collaboration and formulate corresponding measures so as to reduce the risk of such infections among the ICU patients.

Objective:To analyze research trends, hotspots, and international collaboration in temporomandibular disorders (TMD) from 2010 to 2024 using bibliometric methods.Methods:A total of 4 368 articles published between January 2010 to December 2024 were retrieved from PubMed using the search strategy temporomandibular disorders[MeSH Terms] OR temporomandibular joint disorders[Title/Abstract]. The R package"bibliometrix" was employed to analyze publication statistics, author collaboration networks, and keyword co-occurrence.Results:The annual publication volume in the TMD field increased 3.4-fold from 2010 to 2024, with an average annual output of 291.2 articles. MANFREDINI DANIELE was identified as the most prolific author (74 articles). The Journal of Oral Rehabilitation ranked first in terms of publication quantity (454 articles). The University of S?o Paulo (Brazil) emerged as the leading contributor, followed by Sichuan University (China) globally. Research hotspots predominantly focused on the DC/TMD diagnostic criteria and pain mechanisms. Analysis of international collaboration networks revealed that core authors (e.g., Lobbezoo F, Manfredini D) have driven advancements in the field through multidisciplinary collaboration (dentistry+psychology+medical imaging). The high-frequency occurrence of the imaging keyword "magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)" underscores its pivotal role in diagnosing disc displacement. Chinese institutions (Sichuan University, Peking University) ranked second globally in research output; however, interdisciplinary international collaboration remained limited, with multiple-country publications (MCP) accounting for only 13.0%. Conclusions:TMD research demonstrates interdisciplinary integration, highlighting the need for future emphasis on Asian population studies and innovative diagnostic/therapeutic technologies.
