Lung cancer is the most common malignant tumor worldwide, ranking first in both incidence and mortality rates. According to the latest statistics from the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC), approximately 2.5 million new cases and around 1.8 million deaths from lung cancer occurred in 2022, placing a tremendous burden on global healthcare systems. The high mortality rate of lung cancer is closely linked to its subtle early symptoms, which often lead to diagnosis at advanced stages. This not only complicates treatment but also results in substantial economic losses. Current treatment options for lung cancer include surgery, radiotherapy, chemotherapy, targeted drug therapy, and immunotherapy. Among these, immunotherapy has emerged as the most groundbreaking advancement in recent years, owing to its unique antitumor mechanisms and impressive clinical benefits. Unlike traditional therapies such as radiotherapy and chemotherapy, immunotherapy activates or enhances the patient’s immune system to recognize and eliminate tumor cells. It offers advantages such as more durable therapeutic effects and relatively fewer toxic side effects. The main approaches to lung cancer immunotherapy include immune checkpoint inhibitors, tumor-specific antigen-targeted therapies, adoptive cell therapies, cancer vaccines, and oncolytic virus therapies. Among these, immune checkpoint inhibitors and tumor-specific antigen-targeted therapies have received approval from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for clinical use in lung cancer, significantly improving outcomes for patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer. Although other immunotherapy strategies are still in clinical trials, they show great potential in improving treatment precision and efficacy. This article systematically reviews the latest research progress in lung cancer immunotherapy, including the development of novel immune checkpoint molecules, optimization of treatment strategies, identification of predictive biomarkers, and findings from recent clinical trials. It also discusses the current challenges in the field and outlines future directions, such as the development of next-generation immunotherapeutic agents, exploration of more effective combination regimens, and the establishment of precise efficacy prediction systems. The aim is to provide a valuable reference for the continued advancement of lung cancer immunotherapy.

Objective To explore the application value of multimodal monitoring in postoperative evaluation of neurointerventional surgery in patients with acute ischemic stroke.Method A total of 86 patients with acute ischemic stroke who received neurointerventional surgery in the Neurointensive Care Unit of Department of Neurology in Tangshan People's Hospital from December 2021 to December 2022 were selected,and they were randomly divided into the routine group and the multimodal group by 1∶1 ratio,with 43 cases in each group.Patients in the routine group were routinely monitored.Patients in the multimodal group were given non-invasive intracranial pressure monitoring,transcranial Doppler monitoring and electroencephalogram monitoring on the basis of routine monitoring,and the corresponding treatments were adjusted according to the monitoring results.The National Institute of health stroke scale(NIHSS)was used to evaluate the improvement of neurological deficits of patients,and the modified Rankin scale(mRS)score was used to evaluate the 90-day prognosis of patients.The incidence of intracranial hemorrhage within 24 hours,symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage within 24 hours,decompressive craniectomy surgery,and the mortality were recorded to evaluate the prognosis.Results There was no statistically significant difference in age,gender,hypertension history,diabetes history,atrial fibrillation history,smoking history,NIHSS score at admission,mRS score at admission,intravenous thrombolysis ratio,time from onset to vascular opening,postoperative blood flow classification,occlusion site,and TOAST classification of patients between the two groups(P>0.05).The 90-day mRS score of patients in the multimodal group was significantly lower than that in the routine group(P<0.05);The proportion of patients with 90-day mRS score of 4 to 6 points in the multimodal group was significantly lower than that in the routine group(P<0.05);The improvement of NIHSS score from baseline to 14 days of patients in the multimodal group was significantly better than that in the routine group(P<0.05).There was no statistically significant difference in the incidence of intracranial hemorrhage within 24 hours,symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage within 24 hours,decompressive craniectomy surgery,and the 90-day mortality between the two groups(P>0.05).Spearman correlation analysis showed that 90-day mRS score was positively correlated with the change of NIHSS score from baseline to 14 days(r=0.419,P<0.05).Conclusion Multimodal monitoring of patients with acute ischemic stroke undergoing neurointervention surgery,combined with multimodal monitoring indicators to guide clinical individualized treatment can improve the neurological prognosis of patients,reduce the incidence of complications and mortality.

Perihilar cholangiocarcinoma(PHC)is a common malignancy of biliary tract,for which surgery is the most effective treatment.However,its prognosis is not satisfactory even after surgical resection.In recent years,there have been some new advances in the surgical treatment of PHC.In this paper,we reviewed the existing literatures,demonstrated the current situation of preoperative biliary drainage,liver hyperplasia,hepatic resection,liver transplantation and minimally invasive surgery in the treatment of PHC,and prospected the future research direction.

Post-endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography pancreatitis(PEP)is one of the most common complications after endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography(ERCP).Numerous PEP prediction models have been established based on different statistical methods at home and abroad.The PEP prediction model,as a tool for evaluating and screening high-risk populations,can provide a basis for medical staff to find high-risk PEP patients early and take effective preventive measures.In recent years,new PEP prediction models have appeared one after another,but there is still a lack of recognized reliable prediction models in clinic.This article reviews the research status of PEP risk prediction models,aim to provide a direction for establishing a more reliable,accurate,and practical PEP risk prediction model in the later period.

Objective:To study the expression of the Homeobox C6(HOXC6)gene in the homeobox family in PCa,its effect on the biological behavior of PCa cells and its action mechanism.Methods:Based on the studies of HOXC6 retrieved from the data-base of Gene Expression Profiling Interactive Analysis(GEPIA),we analyzed the expression of HOXC6 in PCa and the relationship of its expression level with the survival prognosis of the patients.We detected the expression of the HOXC6 protein in PCa tissues and cells by Western blot,stably interfered with the expression of the HOXC6 gene in human PCa DU145 and PC-3 cells and normal prosta-tic epithelial RWPE-1 cells using the siRNA plasmid,and determined the effects of HOXC6 on the proliferation,migration and inva-siveness of PCa cells by CCK8,plate cloning and scratch healing and Transwell invasion assays.Using the GEPIA database,we ana-lyzed the correlation of the Wnt tumor inhibitory factor-secreted frizzled-related protein 1(SFRP1)gene with HOXC6,and detected the expressions of HOXC6,SFRP1,Wnt and β-catenin in PC-3 cells after siRNA-HOXC6 transfection by Western blot.Results:The expression of HOXC6 was dramatically higher in the PCa than in the normal prostate tissue(P<0.01),and in the PCa cells than in the normal prostatic epithelial cells(P<0.01).Bioinformatics analysis indicated a lower survival rate of the PCa patients with a high than those with a low HOXC6 expression(P=0.011).The relative expression of the HOXC6 protein,absorbance value,number of clones formed and number of invaded cells were significantly lower in the siRNA group than in the negative controls(P<0.05).Ac-cording to the GEPIA database,highly expressed SFRP1 was associated with a good prognosis of PCa,and the protein expressions of Wnt and β-catenin were markedly increased while that of SFRP1 decreased in the PCa PC-3 cell line(P<0.05).The expressions of the Wnt and β-catenin proteins were decreased and that of SFRP1 increased significantly in the siRNA-HOXC6 transfection group com-pared with those in the siRNA negative control and PCa PC-3 groups(P<0.05).Conclusion:HOXC6 is highly expressed in PCa tissues and related to the proliferation,migration and invasiveness of PCa cells.HOXC6 promotes the growth of DU145 and PC-3 cells in PCa by inhibiting the SFRP1/Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway,and may be a potential target for clinical treatment of PCa.

Patients with severe trauma require an extremely timely treatment and transfusion plays an irreplaceable role in the emergency treatment of such patients. An increasing number of evidence-based medicinal evidences and clinical practices suggest that patients with severe traumatic bleeding benefit from early transfusion of low-titer group O whole blood or hemostatic resuscitation with red blood cells, plasma and platelet of a balanced ratio. However, the current domestic mode of blood supply cannot fully meet the requirements of timely and effective blood transfusion for emergency treatment of patients with severe trauma in clinical practice. In order to solve the key problems in blood supply and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma, Branch of Clinical Transfusion Medicine of Chinese Medical Association, Group for Trauma Emergency Care and Multiple Injuries of Trauma Branch of Chinese Medical Association, Young Scholar Group of Disaster Medicine Branch of Chinese Medical Association organized domestic experts of blood transfusion medicine and trauma treatment to jointly formulate Chinese expert consensus on blood support mode and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma patients ( version 2024). Based on the evidence-based medical evidence and Delphi method of expert consultation and voting, 10 recommendations were put forward from two aspects of blood support mode and transfusion strategies, aiming to provide a reference for transfusion resuscitation in the emergency treatment of severe trauma and further improve the success rate of treatment of patients with severe trauma.
