OBJECTIVE To evaluate the efficacy and safety of immune checkpoint inhibitors （ICIs） combined with neoadjuvant chemotherapy in the treatment of early triple-negative breast cancer （TNBC）. METHODS Randomized controlled trials （RCTs） comparing ICIs combined with neoadjuvant chemotherapy （experimental group） versus neoadjuvant chemotherapy alone （control group） were retrieved from PubMed， Cochrane Library， Embase， Web of Science， CNKI， Wanfang Data， and VIP databases， as well as relevant studies published at oncology academic conferences. The search period was from database inception to June 30， 2025. After literature screening， data extraction， and quality assessment， a meta-analysis was performed by using RevMan 5.4 software. RESULTS A total of 6 RCTs involving 3 786 patients were finally included. The meta-analysis results showed that the experimental group had superior event-free survival [HR＝0.73， 95%CI （0.62， 0.85）， P＜0.000 1]， overall survival [HR＝0.69， 95%CI （0.57， 0.84）， P＝0.000 3]， and pathological complete response （pCR） [OR＝1.57， 95%CI （1.37， 1.80）， P＜0.000 01] compared to the control group. The incidence of ≥grade 3 adverse event （AE）， severe AE （SAE）， and ≥ grade 3 immune-related adverse event （irAE） in the experimental group was significantly higher than that in the control group. There was no statistically significant difference between the two groups in the incidence of any AE or any irAE （P＞0.05）. Subgroup analysis revealed that， regardless of programmed cell death ligand 1 expression status （negative or positive），the pCR in the experimental group was significantly higher than that in the control group （P＜0.05）. Additionally， the pCR of the patients with positive lymph nodes in the experimental group was significantly higher to that in the ontrol group （P＜0.05）. There was no statistically significant difference in pCR between the two groups with negative lymph nodes （P＝0.09）. CONCLUSIONS ICIs combined with neoadjuvant chemotherapy can significantly improve event-free survival and overall survival in patients with TNBC， providing patients with long-term survival benefits. However， the risk of ≥ grade 3 AE， SAE and ≥ grade 3 irAE has increased.

Objective: To investigate the changing trends for associations of anxiety and depressive symptoms with smartphone addiction among middle school students, so as to provide a scientific basis for preventing smartphone addiction in middle school students. Methods: From 2022 to 2023, a method of combining convenient sampling with cluster sampling was used to select 8 923 middle school students from 27 junior high schools and 3 senior high schools in a district of Shenzhen City between September 2022 (baseline, T1) and September 2023 (follow up, T2). The Smartphone Addiction Scale-Short Version (SAS-SV), Patients Health Questionnaire-9 Item (PHQ-9), and Generalized Anxiety Disorder 7-item Scale (GAD-7) were administered to assess smartphone addiction, anxiety and depressive symptoms. Mixed effects models were used to analyze the association of anxiety and depressive symptoms with smartphone addiction among middle school students. Results: From September 2022 to September 2023, the reported prevalence of smartphone addiction increased from 24.22% to 25.25% ( χ 2=45.71); and smartphone addiction scores [ 24.00 (16.00, 32.00),25.00(16.00, 33.00)], anxiety symptom scores [2.00(0.00, 7.00),3.00(0.00, 7.00)] and depressive symptom scores[3.00(0.00, 8.00),5.00(0.00, 9.00)] all significantly increased ( Z =-17.43, -42.38, -41.57) (all P <0.05). There were statistically significant difference in the distribution of anxiety and depression symptom levels among middle school students in 2022 and 2023 ( χ 2=85.15, 106.85, both P <0.05). After adjusting for covariates such as age, gender and family background, mixed effects models revealed dose response associations of anxiety and depressive symptoms with smartphone addiction among middle school students:mild anxiety symptom( OR =3.22), moderate to severe anxiety symptom ( OR =5.36), mild depressive symptom ( OR =3.32) and moderate to severe depressive symptom ( OR =6.13) were significantly associated with higher risks of smartphone addiction (all P <0.05). Interaction effect analysis found that co existing anxiety and depressive symptoms synergistically increased addiction risk by 5.60 times ( OR =5.60) compared to the asymptomatic group, with 32% of the combined risk attributable to their interaction ( S=1.64, AP =0.32)(both P < 0.05 ). Conclusions Anxiety and depressive symptoms are significantly associated with smartphone addiction, exhibiting a synergistic effect. Attention should be paid to emotional issues and smartphone addiction among middle school students.

ObjectiveTo analyze the correlation between the clinical symptoms， signs， syndrome characteristics and laboratory indicators of cough variant asthma （CVA） and deepen the understanding of the treatment of this disease based on the theory of "Fu Feng". MethodsAn observational study was conducted. A total of 207 CVA patients who visited the respiratory department of the Third Affiliated Hospital of Beijing University of Chinese Medicine from September 2022 to November 2023 were included. The information from the four diagnostic methods and the laboratory test results of patients were collected. Factor analysis was conducted on the information obtained through the four diagnostic methods in TCM， and the nature and location of CVA were extracted. Sample cluster analysis （Q clustering） and the K-means method were used for data clustering analysis to determine the syndrome types of CVA and analyze the syndrome characteristics and differences in laboratory indicators among different syndrome types. ResultsThe main symptom of CVA patients was cough， accompanied by symptoms such as itchy throat， foreign body sensation in the throat， dry throat， shortness of breath， dry mouth， chest tightness， hoarseness， bitter mouth， poor appetite， and skin itching. Factor analysis showed that the disease was located in the lung， involving the liver， spleen， and kidney. The pathological factors involved Yin deficiency， Yang deficiency， wind factor， dampness factor， Yin factor， and Qi stagnation. Cluster analysis revealed four syndrome types： Fengfu Yinshang syndrome， Shixie Neiyun syndrome， Tanyin Zufei syndrome， and Ganhuo Fanfei syndrome. Fengfu Yinshang syndrome accounted for the highest proportion， followed by Tanyin Zufei syndrome. There were no significant differences in eosinophil count and percentage， fractional nasal nitric oxide （FnNO） level， and pulmonary function indexes among the four syndromes. The levels of serum total IgE and fractional exhaled nitric oxide （FeNO） in patients with Fengfu Yinshang syndrome were significantly higher than those in patients with Shixie Neiyun syndrome and Tanyin Zufeisyndrome. ConclusionCough is the main symptom of CVA， accompanied by pharyngeal itching， foreign body sensation in the throat， dry throat， shortness of breath， dry mouth， and allergic manifestations. The disease involves the lung， liver， spleen， and kidneys. The essence of the pathogenesis lies in a latent dormant pathogen and a disorder of the pivot mechanism. The four common syndrome types are Fengfu Yinshang syndrome， Shixie Neiyun syndrome， Tanyin Zufei syndrome， and Ganhuo Fanfei syndrome. The TCM syndrome types are correlated with laboratory indexes. The serum total IgE and FeNO of patients with Fengfu Yinshang syndrome are worse.

Hematologic malignancies,such as lymphoma,myeloma,and myeloid neoplasms,can occur in extramedullary tissues.Traditional histopathological morphology and immunohistochemical staining have lim-itations,including time-consuming specimen processing,prolonged reporting cycles,and relatively low sensi-tivity in cases of limited cell numbers.Flow cytometry offers significant advantages in detecting tissue sam-ples,such as rapid processing,shorter reporting cycles,and high accuracy and sensitivity,making it an effective complement to histopathological and immunohistochemical methods.However,the application of flow cytome-try in tissue sample detection currently lacks standardized protocols for sample collection and preservation,single-cell suspension preparation,antibody panel design for limited samples,data analysis,and result repor-ting.To promote the standardized application of flow cytometry in detecting hematologic tumor cells in tissue samples,the Cell Analysis Professional Committee of the Chinese Society of Biotechnology organized experts to develop the Chinese Expert Consensus on Flow Cytometry for Detecting Hematologic Tumor Cells in Tis-sue Samples(hereinafter referred to as the Consensus).This Consensus elaborates on the technical aspects of flow cytometry for tissue sample detection,covering sample processing,antibody panel design,data analysis,reporting content,and quality management.It particularly emphasizes recommended antibody panels and data analysis methods for flow cytometry when tissue sample cell counts are low.This article aims to interpret the key points of the Consensus to facilitate its better application in clinical practice.

AIM:To analyze the influencing factors of visual outcome after vitrectomy for polypoidal choroidal vasculopathy(PCV)combined with vitreous hemorrhage and establish a predictive model.METHODS: A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of 129 cases(129 eyes)of patients who underwent vitrectomy for PCV combined with vitreous hemorrhage from June 2021 to January 2024 in our hospital. They were divided into elevated group(71 eyes)and non-elevated group(58 eyes)according to visual outcome at early posoperative stage(within 24 mo). Another 30 cases(30 eyes)of PCV with vitreous hemorrhage undergoing vitrectomy were selected as external validation data. The predictive value of the model for the postoperative visual outcomes of both internal and external populations was evaluated.RESULTS: The non-elevated group had a higher proportion of patients aged ≥60 years, diabetes, continuous abnormalities of the ellipsoid zone(EZ)during surgery, bleeding involving the macular fovea, and postoperative retinal scar formation than the elevated group were independent factors affecting postoperative visual acuity(all P<0.05). The AUC of the predictive model for predicting the postoperative visual outcomes of internal and external populations was 0.824(95%CI: 0.750-0.898)and 0.809(95%CI: 0.723-0.865), respectively.CONCLUSION:Patients aged ≥60 years, diabetes, intraoperative continuous abnormalities of EZ, bleeding involving the macular fovea, and postoperative retinal scar formation are influencing factors for visual outcome after vitrectomy in patients with PCV combined with vitreous hemorrhage. A predictive model based on those factors has been established, which has a certain predictive value for postoperative visual outcome.

Body weight abnormalities, including overweight, obesity, and underweight, have become a dual public health challenge in Chinese adults: overweight and obesity lead to a variety of chronic complications, while underweight increases the risks of malnutrition, sarcopenia, and organ dysfunction. To systematically address these issues, multidisciplinary experts in endocrinology, sports science, nutrition, and psychiatry from various regions have held multiple weight management seminars. Based on the latest epidemiological data and clinical evidence, they expanded the guideline to include assessment and intervention strategies for underweight, in addition to the core content of obesity management. This guideline outlines the etiological mechanisms, evaluation methods, and multidimensional management strategies for overweight and obesity, covering key areas such as diagnosis and assessment, medical nutrition therapy, exercise prescription, pharmacological intervention, and psychological support. It is intended to provide a scientific and standardized approach to weight management across the adult population, aiming to curb the rising prevalence of obesity, mitigate complications associated with abnormal body weight, and improve nutritional status and overall quality of life.

Objective:To evaluate the safety and efficacy of secondary transport on extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) for critically ill children.Methods:This was a retrospective cohort study. Data from 222 pediatric patients who underwent ECMO transport from May 2019 to May 2024 at 5 ECMO centers and Chinese Database of Pediatric Extracorporeal Life Support Organization were collected. The cases were divided into primary and secondary transport groups by nature of transport. The clinical data, including demographics, ECMO indications, transport distance, pre-transport lab results, prognosis and complications were analyzed. Two independent samples t-test, Wilcoxon test, and χ2 test or Fisher′s exact probability method were used to compare the differences between 2 groups and evaluate the safety and efficacy of secondary transport. Results:Among the 222 children transported with ECMO, there were 135 males and 87 females, with an age of 3.0 (0.2, 7.0) years. There were 202 cases in the primary transport group and 20 cases in the secondary transport group. All secondary transport patients had failed attempts at weaning ECMO before transfer. The patients in the secondary transport group were older, had higher rates of surgical cannulation, circulatory support, and pre-ECMO lactate levels compared to the primary transport group (7.0 (2.8, 10.0) vs. 3.0 (0.2, 6.0) years old, 55.0% (11/20) vs. 3.6% (7/202), 80.0% (16/20) vs. 41.6% (84/202), (10±4) vs. (7±6) mmol/L, Z=3.41, χ 2=66.31, 10.99, t=2.24, all P<0.05). In the secondary transport group, the vasoactive-inotropic scores of patients on circulatory support and the oxygenation index for patients requiring respiratory support were higher than those in the primary transport group (83±33 vs. 82±68, 51.0±1.8 vs. 37.4±10.2, t=2.36, 2.63, respectively; both P<0.05). There were no statistically significant differences between the 2 groups in sex, transport distance, pre-ECMO creatinine, arterial blood gas BE values, and ECMO duration (all P>0.05). No life-threatening complications occurred during the transport in either group. Two patients in the secondary transport group underwent heart transplantation, and 1 patient underwent radiofrequency ablation. The overall survival rate between the 2 groups showed no statistically significant difference (45.0% (9/20) vs. 55.4% (112/202), χ2=1.15, P>0.05). Conclusions:Secondary ECMO transport for critically ill children don't increase mortality or life-threatening complications during transport. ECMO patients who cannot receive effective treatment locally can benefit from secondary transport to an advanced ECMO center provides further treatment opportunities.

Metanephric adenoma is a rare renal epithelial tumor with a low incidence and lack of specific clinical manifestations，resulting in a lack of uniformity in clinical understanding and treatment. Its etiology and pathogenesis are still unclear，and it may be related to the abnormal number and structure of chromosomes 2，7，and 17，as well as mutations in genes such as BRAF V600E，NF1，and NOTCH1，etc. There may be a transformed relationship between this tumor and Wilms’ tumor and papillary renal cell carcinoma. For diagnosis，it has diverse but non-specific clinical manifestations，and it is difficult to accurately differentiate it from other tumors in the imaging examination，and the confirmation of diagnosis relies on pathological and immunohistochemical staining. Treatment is mainly based on surgery to preserve the renal unit，such as partial nephrectomy，etc.，but the difficulty of preoperative diagnosis often leads to over-treatment，and there is a lack of standardized treatment protocols for metastatic posterior renal adenoma. The aim of this article is to provide a reference for the in-depth understanding of posterior renal adenomas and to optimize the clinical diagnosis and treatment strategies.

Objective To evaluate the cost-effectiveness of the combination therapy of ribociclib plus fulvestrant compared to fulvestrant monotherapy as a second-line treatment for postmenopausal patients with hormone receptor-positive(HR+)/human epidermal growth factor receptor 2-negative(HER2-)advanced metastatic breast cancer from the perspective of the Chinese healthcare system.Methods A partitioned survival model was constructed based on MONALEESA-3 study data,with the model cycle of 4 weeks and the time range of 15 years.Total cost,quality-adjusted life years(QALYs)and incremental cost-effectiveness ratio(ICER)were compared between ribociclib combined with fulvestrant and fulvestrant monotherapy as a second-line treatment for postmenopausal patients with HR+/HER2-advanced metastatic breast cancer.The robustness of the models was validated through one-way sensitivity analysis and probabilistic sensitivity analysis.Results Compared with the fulvestrant monotherapy regimen,the ICER for the ribociclib combined with fulvestrant regimen was 187,958.06 yuan/QALY,which was below the willingness-to-pay(WTP)threshold of three times China's per capita gross domestic product(GDP)in 2024(287,247 yuan/QALY).The one-way sensitivity analysis revealed that the ICER was primarily influenced by the proportion of patients receiving subsequent treatments with the combination therapy or fulvestrant monotherapy,and the utility value of progression-free survival.The probabilistic sensitivity analysis showed that at a WTP threshold of three times China's per capita GDP in China in 2024(287,247 yuan/QALY),the probability of the ribociclib combination therapy being cost-effective was 100%.Conclusion In the context of the Chinese healthcare system,the combination therapy of ribociclib and fulvestrant is more cost-effective than fulvestrant monotherapy for the second-line treatment of postmenopausal patients with HR+/HER2-advanced metastatic breast cancer.

Objective To investigate the early postoperative efficacy between Kahook dual blade(KDB)internal tra-beculectomy and internal gonioscopy-assisted transluminal trabeculotomy(GATT)in the treatment of primary open-angle glaucoma(POAG).Methods A total of 120 patients(120 eyes)with POAG were included and divided according to dif-ferent surgical treatment methods.Among them,62 patients(62 eyes)undergoing internal trabeculectomy by KDB were di-vided into Group A,and 58 patients(58 eyes)undergoing GATT were divided into Group B.Relevant data of patients in the two groups were collected,and the efficacy of the two surgical methods was compared.Results The intraocular pres-sure in both groups decreased 1 day,1 week,and 1 month after surgery compared with preoperative levels(all P＜0.05).However,there was no significant difference in the intraocular pressure measured at the above time points between the two groups(all P＞0.05).The type of drugs for reducing the intraocular pressure in both groups decreased significantly 1 day,1 week,and 1 month after surgery compared with preoperative levels(all P＜0.05).However,there was no significant difference in the type of drugs for reducing the intraocular pressure at the above time points between the two groups(all P＞0.05).There was no statistically significant difference in the total incidence of complications between Group A(45.16％)and Group B(39.66％)(P＞0.05).Specifically,the main complications in Group A included anterior chamber hemorrhage and intraocular pressure rebound,while those in Group B included anterior chamber hemorrhage and ciliary detachment.Conclusion Both KDB internal trabeculectomy and GATT can effectively reduce the intraocular pressure in patients with POAG and reduce the use of postoperative intraocular pressure-lowering drugs.There was no significant difference in surgical complications between the two surgical methods.The selection of surgical procedures in clinical prac-tice can be determined based on patients' wishes and actual situation.
