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 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.

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.

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.

OBJECTIVE To identify and characterize the chemical ingredients of Anchang formulation,further screen the active ingredients of this formulation treating ulcerative colitis by network pharmacology,and explore the potential targets and pathways,provi-ding scientific basis for its mechanism research and clinical application.METHODS Chemical ingredients in Anchang formulation were acquired by Ultra-high performance liquid chromatography-quadrupole-time-of-flight mass spectrometry(UPLC-Q-TOF-MS)technology and literature retrieval.The potential active ingredients and key targets for the treatment were obtained from Swiss Target Prediction,GeneCards,STRING,and then Gene Ontology(GO)function and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes(KEGG)pathway enrichment were analyzed in the DAVID database.The interactions between the active ingredients and the core targets were verified by using the AutoDock software.The RAW 264.7 murine-derived macrophage inflammation model was also established to val-idate the anti-inflammatory activity of the pre-screened chemical ingredients and further explore the related mechanisms.RESULTS In this study,108 chemical ingredients of Anchang formulation were characterized by UPLC-Q-TOF-MS technology,and expanded to 134 through literature search.The component-target network where 39 core active components were screened was further constructed,and 15 key therapeutic targets were screened by the protein-protein interaction network constructed.The enrichment analysis of KEGG pathway indicated that Anchang formulation can regulate TNF,PI3K-Akt,MAPK,cancer and other related signaling pathways and ex-ert a therapeutic effect.The results of cell experiments showed that Anchang formulation and its active ingredients could inhibit the re-lease of NO,TNF-α and IL-6 in the LPS-induced RAW 264.7 cell inflammation model.CONCLUSION Based on the concept of"ingredient-target-pathway",this study evaluates the anti-inflammatory effect of Anchang formulation and its active ingredients,pre-dicts the potential mechanism of treatment for UC,and provides a theoretical basis and research ideas for the quality control of the for-mulation and its treatment for UC.

Objective To investigate the clinical efficacy of Modified Yinhuo Guiyuan Huayu Formula(MYGHF)in diabetic retinopathy(DR)patients with yin deficiency and blood stasis syndrome and to observe its regulatory effects on the nuclear factor κB(NF-κB)signaling pathway.Methods A total of 100 DR patients(200 eyes)with yin deficiency and blood stasis syndrome admitted to the Fourth People's Hospital of Hengshui from January 2019 to April 2020 were equally randomized into a control group(50 cases,100 eyes)and an observation group(50 cases,100 eyes)using a random number table.Both groups were required to conduct intensive glycemic control.The control group was treated with conventional western medicine of lecithin-bound iodine,while the observation group received additional MYGHF for 3 months.Parameters of traditional Chinese medicine(TCM)syndrome scores,key components of NF-κB signaling pathway[NF-κB p65,inhibitor of kappa B kinase(IKK),inhibitor kappa B(IκB)],angiogenesis-related factors[fibroblast growth factor 21(FGF21),vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF),angiopoietin 2(Ang2)],and efficacy indicators[glycated hemoglobin(HbA1c),fasting blood glucose(FBG),homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance(HOMA-IR),visual field grayscale value,and best-corrected visual acuity(BCVA)]in the two groups were evaluated before treatment and 1 and 3 month(s)after treatment.After treatment,the clinical efficacy and safety of the two groups were assessed.Results(1)After 3 months of treatment,the total effective rate was 88.00%(44/50)in the observation group versus 70.00%(35/50)in the control group,demonstrating significantly superior therapeutic effects of TCM syndrome differentiation in the observation group(tested by chi-square test,P＜0.05).(2)At 1 and 3 month(s)after treatment,both groups showed reduced scores for TCM symptoms of blurred vision,dizziness and tinnitus,soreness and weakness of waist and knees,and feverish sensation in the palms and soles compared to the baseline levels(all P＜0.05).The observation group exhibited significantly greater reductions in these symptom scores than the control group at both time points(all P＜0.05).(3)The protein expression levels of NF-κB p65,IKK were decreased and IκB was increased in both groups at 1 and 3 month(s)after treatment compared to the baseline levels(all P＜0.05),and the observation group demonstrated more pronounced improvement of these key pathway components compared to the control group(all P＜0.05).(4)The levels of angiogenesis-related factors of FGF21,Ang2,and VEGF were significantly reduced in both groups at 1 and 3 month(s)compared to the baseline levels(all P＜0.05),and the observation group showed superior decreases compared to the control group(all P＜0.05).(5)The efficacy indicators of HbA1c,FBG,HOMA-IR,visual field grayscale values,and BCVA were improved in both groups at post-treatment 1 and 3 month(s)compared to the baseline levels(all P＜0.05),and the observation group achieved significantly superior improvement in all indicators compared to the control group(all P＜0.05).(6)The total incidence of adverse reactions was 2.00%(1/50)in the observation group versus 8.00%(4/50)in the control group,with no statistically significant difference between groups(P＞0.05).Conclusion MYGHF effectively alleviates clinical symptoms in patients with DR of yin deficiency and blood stasis type,and is effective on modulating angiogenesis-related factors and suppressing NF-κB signaling pathway activation,demonstrating satisfactory efficacy and good safety profile.

Objective: To analyze the implementation status and challenges of sex education in special education schools, so as to provide a scientific basis for formulating effective promotion strategies. Methods: From November 2023 to January 2024, a census survey was conducted among 120 in service teachers from 7 special education schools in Luzhou. The questionnaire covered the current status of sex education in schools, teachers attitudes and knowledge toward sex education, and their coping methods for students inappropriate sexual behaviors. Results: About 77.5% of teachers reported having provided sex education to students, but 93.2% indicated a lack of specialized sex education textbooks for special children, 90.4% reported no full time teachers for sex education, and the methods of sex education were relatively limited (50.0% mainly based on lecture method). Nearly 95.8% of teachers held a positive attitude toward sex education, with 98.3% supporting its implementation. Only 26.7% of teachers demonstrated a good grasp of sex education knowledge, with the best understood topic being "recognition and protection of private parts" (21.6%). When dealing with students inappropriate sexual behaviors, the active response rate of teachers was 23.9%, with the highest active response rate observed for "intentionally hugging or kissing the opposite sex" (39.7%). Conclusions The special education schools in Luzhou lack comprehensive sex education curricula, teaching materials and full time teachers, sufficient knowledge among teachers, and adequate proactive responses to students inappropriate sexual behaviors. Greater emphasis should be placed on sex education for special children, including the training of dedicated teachers, to provide comprehensive and high quality sex education services for special children.

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 investigate the effect of internal trabeculectomy on postoperative intraocular pressure and visual acuity in patients with primary open angle glaucoma(POAG).Methods A total of 126 POAG patients underwent internal trabeculectomy were included in this study.Intraocular pressure,types of drug used,visual acuity and complications were compared before and after operation.Results Intraocular pressure was significantly decreased,types of drug used were significantly reduced and visual acuity was significantly improved at 1 week,1 month and 3 months after surgery(P＜0.05).The incidence of postoperative intraocular pressure rebound complication was the highest in postoperative patients(27.78%),followed by hyphema(14.29%),corneal edema(10.32%)and ciliary detachment(7.14%).Conclusion Internal trabeculectomy for POAG patients can effectively control the decrease of intraocular pressure in patients,help to restore vision,reduce types of drug used,and the effect is ideal,and the clinical application value is high.
