[摘 要] 目的：探讨复发/转移性鼻咽癌（NPC）接受含PD-1单抗免疫治疗的临床特征和预后影响因素。方法：回顾性分析2019年3月至2024年7月期间南部战区总医院确诊的95例NPC患者的临床资料和外周血生化及免疫学指标。预后分析采用Kaplan-Meier曲线，组间比较使用Log-rank检验，采用Cox比例风险模型进行单因素和多因素分析。结果：95例患者中男性81例，女性14例，中位年龄49.72岁（16~74岁），Ⅳ期91例（95.79%），所有患者均采用免疫治疗，联合或不联合化疗方案治疗，中位无进展生存期（mPFS）为10.5个月，客观缓解率（ORR）70.53%，疾病控制率（DCR）89.47%，接受含铂治疗方案患者PFS相对更长，且差异有统计学意义。紫杉醇 + 顺铂 + 氟尿嘧啶（TPF）对比吉西他滨 + 顺铂（GP）和紫杉醇 + 顺铂（TP）显示出更长的PFS，但差异无统计学意义。不同PD-1单抗治疗组间的PFS未显示出有统计学意义的差异。单因素及多因素Cox回归分析结果显示，肿瘤复发状态、初始血浆EBV感染状态、治疗周期数、基线外周血SII是复发/转移性NPC患者接受PD-1抑制剂治疗疗效预测的独立相关因素（均P < 0.05），并且非复发患者、初始血浆EBV DNA阳性、接受 ≥ 4治疗周期、基线外周血SII < 772.81的患者接受PD-1抑制剂治疗预后相对更好。结论：在接受PD-1抑制剂治疗的复发/转移性NPC患者中，非复发患者、初始血浆EBV DNA阳性、≥ 4治疗周期且外周血SII < 772.81者PFS相对更长，可早期识别免疫治疗效果不佳患者并精准干预。

Background As one of the most severe occupational diseases in China, pneumoconiosis is significantly burdened by its complications, which adversely affects patients' quality of life. Objective To identify the influencing factors of complications in pneumoconiosis and to construct an early prediction model for pneumoconiosis complications, providing theoretical guidance for clinical diagnosis, treatment, and rehabilitation. Methods A case-control study was conducted using data from the Chongqing 5G Pneumoconiosis Rehabilitation Management Information Platform. A total of 1872 pneumoconiosis patients with complications, who received rehabilitation at various rehabilitation stations in Chongqing from January 2021 to December 2024, were enrolled as the case group. Concurrently, 2348 patients without complications from the same platform and period were included as the control group. Univariate analysis, LASSO regression, and logistic regression were employed to identify influencing factors for complications. An extreme gradient boosting (XGBoost) model was trained using ten-fold cross-validation to predict pneumoconiosis complications. The SHapley Additive exPlanations (SHAP) method was applied for model visualization. Results The analysis of influencing factors revealed that increased age, silicosis type, advanced stage of pneumoconiosis, dependence in activities of daily living, abnormal muscle strength, increased dyspnea index, presence of cough, viscous sputum, impaired cardiac function, severe abnormality in the 6-minute walk test (6MWT), and increased Borg score were risk factors for complications (P<0.05). The XGBoost model demonstrated an area under the curve (AUC) of receiver operating characteristic of 0.718, and a Brier score of 0.211 for the calibration curve. Decision curve analysis demonstrated a superior net benefit within the threshold probability range of 0.2 to 1.0 compared to "all-patient intervention" and "no-patient intervention" strategies, indicating good predictive performance and significant clinical utility. SHAP visualization identified the top six important features as Borg score, age, 6MWT, muscle strength, pneumoconiosis stage, and cough symptoms. Conclusion Multiple factors influence the occurrence of complications in pneumoconiosis patients. Clinical attention should be focused on elderly patients with decreased cardiopulmonary reserve, pronounced respiratory symptoms, and diminished muscle strength. The XGBoost model demonstrates satisfactory discrimination, calibration, and clinical applicability in predicting pneumoconiosis complications and may serve as a useful reference for clinical decision-making.

Objective To investigate the gene expression profile of cervical exfoliated cells from woman treated by artificial cycle,and their potential association with endometrial receptivity in order to screen specific biomarkers closely related to the receptivity.Methods A total of 19 female patients were enrolled from those preparing for frozen embryo transfer(FET)at the Reproductive Center of First Medical Center of Chinese PLA General Hospital from February 2024 to October 2024.Under the artificial cycle frozen embryo transfer protocol,the endometrial tissues were collected on the 4th day after progesterone administration(P+4)to verify their endometrial receptivity status.Additionally,cervical exfoliated cells were collected on the 4th day(P+4)and the 6th day(P+6)after progesterone administration.RNA sequencing(RNA-Seq)was used to detect gene expression profiles.Differentially expressed genes(DEGs)were identified using the criteria of|log2fold change|＞1 and a false discovery rate(FDR)＜0.05,followed by bioinformatics analysis.The protein-protein interaction(PPI)network of DEGs was constructed using R software(4.4.1)and analyzed with gene ontology(GO)and Kyoto encyclopedia of genes and genomes(KEGG)analyses.The candidate genes were identified based on the PPI network using Cytoscape software.Quantitative reverse transcription PCR(RT-qPCR)was employed to validate the target candidate genes both in vitro and in vivo.Results The rsERT confirmed that all 19 women were in state of endometrial receptivity at P+6.RNA-Seq identified 3 458 DEGs in cervical exfoliated cells between P+4 and P+6.The up-regulated DEGs were mainly enriched in the pathways associated with immune response and cell differentiation,and the down-regulated ones were mainly enriched in the pathways associated with lipid metabolism and cell proliferation.Using maximal clique Centrality(MCC)algorithm in the PPI network,the top 20 genes were selected.Among them,6 genes,such as IFIT2,OASL,MX1,RSAD2,IFIT1 and IFIT3,tied for the first place,and the 6 genes all belong to interferon-stimulated genes(ISGs).qRT-PCR indicated that the above 6 genes showed significantly higher expression levels in the cervical exfoliated cells at the P+4 stage than the cells at the P+6 stage(P＜0.05).Conclusion There are changes in the expression levels of the genes related to immunity and cytoskeleton remodeling in cervical exfoliated cells during the endometrial receptivity phase.The decrease in the expression of ISGs may serve as a potential biomarker for endometrial receptivity.

Cytokeratin 19 fragment antigen 21-1(CYFRA21-1)is a new biomarker which has received much attention in recent years for cancer screening,and has shown great potentials for screening and diagnosis of various cancers,especially non-small cell lung cancer.CYFRA21-1 level in human serum has important clinical significance in the diagnosis,prognosis and treatment of lung cancer.Recently,a variety of detection techniques have been established to effectively enrich the detection technology system of CYFRA21-1,such as enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay,chemiluminescence,fluorescence,immunochromatography,electrochemical method,and surface enhanced Raman spectroscopy,etc.These techniques provide technical support for early diagnosis of lung cancer.However,the research progress of CYFRA21-1 detection methods is rarely reported.In this paper,CYFRA21-1 and its clinical significance were briefly introduced,and the progress of detection technology in recent ten years was reviewed,which was expected to provide reference for developing more sensitive,accurate,fast and convenient detection methods.

Fe/Mn/Gd polymetallic nanooxide(FMGN)were prepared by one-step solvent thermal reaction by using Fe(acac)3,Mn(acac)2 and Gd(acac)3 as reaction precursors.Next,hyaluronic acid(HA)was used to modify FMGN to fabricate tumor-targeting T 1-T 2 dual-mode magnetic resonance imaging(MRI)contrast agent(HA-FMGN)for accurate diagnosis of prostate cancer.The structure and morphology of FMGN were observed by transmission electron microscope(TEM).It was found that FMGN exhibited a uniform nanocluster spherical structure when the feeding ratio of iron acetylacetonate,manganese acetylacetonate,and gadolinium acetylacetonate was 3:2:1.X-ray diffraction(XRD)analysis showed that FMGN had a typical inverse spinel structure of Mn doped Fe 3O 4,with Gd existing in the form of amorphous gadolinium oxide.The longitudinal relaxivity(r 1)and transverse relaxivity(r 2)of FMGN were 13.395 and 428.535 L/(mmol·s),respectively,measured by 0.5 T MRI analyzer,which proved that FMGN had excellent T 1-T 2 dual-mode MRI contrast capability.The cytotoxicity and hemolysis test found that HA-FMGN didn't damage red cells and induce toxicity for normal cells,indicating that HA-FMGN had excellent cell biocompatibility.The internalization efficacy of HA-FMGN was observed by CLSM,and the results showed that HA-FMGN possessed excellent prostate tumor-targeting ability.In vivo MRI experiment showed that HA-FMGN significantly enhanced T 1 and T 2 weighted MRI signal to noise ratio(SNR)of prostate tumor,which promoted the accurate diagnosis of orthotopic prostate cancer.

Objective To investigate the relationship between the serum FMS-like tyrosine kinase 3 ligand(Flt3L),progranulin(PGRN)levels and the disease risk and disease outcome of patients with acute lympho-blastic leukemia(ALL).Methods A total of 104 patients with ALL admitted to the hospital from September 2019 to September 2021 were selected as the research subjects.ALL patients were divided into the low-risk group(n=34),the medium-risk group(n=39),and the high-risk group(n=31)according to the disease risk.The levels of serum Flt3L and PGRN of the patients at admission were detected by enzyme-linked immu-nosorbent assay.Pearson correlation analysis was used to analyze the relationship between serum Flt3L,PGRN in ALL patients and the risk of ALL disease.According to the follow-up results of ALL patients,they were divided into the good prognosis group(n=81)and the poor prognosis group(n=23).The receiver oper-ating characteristic curve and the area under the curve(AUC)were used to analyze the evaluation value of se-rum Flt3L and PGRN for the prognosis of ALL patients,and multivariate Cox regression was used to analyze the prognostic risk factors of ALL patients.Results The serum Flt3L levels in the low-risk group and the medium-risk group were higher than those in the high-risk group,and the difference was statistically signifi-cant(P＜0.05).The serum PGRN levels in the low-risk group and the medium-risk group were lower than those in the high-risk group,and the difference was statistically significant(P＜0.05).Serum Flt3L in ALL patients was negatively correlated with the risk of ALL disease(r=-0.461,0.593,P＜0.05).Serum PGRN in ALL patients was positively correlated with the risk of ALL disease(r=0.593,P＜0.05).The proportions of white blood cell count ≥50 × 109/L,hemoglobin＜90 g/L,and serum PGRN level in the poor prognosis group were higher than those in the good prognosis group,while the serum Flt3L level was lower than that in the good prognosis group,and the differences were statistically significant(P＜0.05).The AUC of serum Flt3L and PGRN in evaluating the prognosis of ALL patients were 0.762(95％CI:0.717-0.816),0.815(95％CI:0.764-0.863),and 0.915(95％CI:0.866-0.964),respectively.White blood cell count ≥50 × 109/L,hemoglobin＜90 g/L,Flt3L＜92.07 pg/mL,and PGRN≥335.14 pg/mL were risk factors affecting the prognosis of ALL patients(P＜0.05).Conclusion The levels of serum Flt3L and PGRN in ALL patients are related to the disease risk and disease outcome of ALL.The combined detection of the two has a good eval-uation value for the prognosis of adult ALL patients.

Objective:To evaluate the clinical value of sacral canal posterior wall reconstruction in the treatment of symptomatic sacral canal cysts.Methods:A retrospective cohort study was conducted.The clinical data of 80 patients with symptomatic sacral cysts who underwent surgical treatment at Beijing Friendship Hospital, Capital Medical University, between June 2018 and September 2024 were collected. There were 19 males and 61 females, with an average age of (49.0±11.3) years (ranged from 23-76 years). The patients were divided into the traditional group ( n=30) and the reconstruction group ( n=50) based on the surgical approach. The traditional group underwent the conventional surgical method without reconstruction of the posterior wall of the sacral canal, while the reconstruction group underwent posterior wall reconstruction of the sacral canal. Postoperative observations included the integrity of the sacral canal posterior wall, wound healing, and symptom improvement in both groups. Measurement data with normal distribution were expressed as mean±standard deviation( ± s). Independent samples t-test was used for comparisons of measurement data between groups. Categorical data were compared using the chi-square test or Fisher′s exact test. Ordinal data were analyzed using the Mann-Whitney U test. Pearson correlation analysis was used to assess the relationship between variables. Results:Among the 80 patients, the sacral bone integrity score in the reconstruction group was (1.42±0.49) scores, compared to (3.00±0.00) scores in the traditional group, the reconstruction group showed significantly better results ( P<0.05). Symptom improvement was also significantly different between the two groups ( P=0.038): in the traditional group, 17 patients experienced complete symptom resolution, 6 partial improvement, 7 no improvement, and 0 worsening; in the reconstruction group, 37 had complete symptom resolution, 11 partial improvement, 2 no improvement, and 0 worsening. The effective improvement rate (complete+ partial improvement) in the reconstruction group was significantly better than that in the traditional group ( P=0.012). In terms of wound healing, 76 cases healed well, 4 had delayed healing, and 0 had infections. In the traditional group, 27 healed well, 3 had delayed healing, 0 infections; in the reconstruction group, 49 healed well, 1 had delayed healing, and 0 infections. There was no significant difference in wound healing rate between the two groups ( P=0.146). A significant positive correlation was found between sacral canal posterior wall integrity and symptom improvement ( r=0.288, P=0.010). Conclusion:Sacral canal posterior wall reconstruction significantly improves postoperative anatomical integrity and clinical outcomes without increasing complications, supporting its adoption as a preferred surgical approach for symptomatic sacral canal cysts.

BACKGROUND:Our previous research found that Panax notoginseng can repair the morphological structure of bone cells,which has a good application prospect in the treatment of osteoarthritis,but the specific mechanism of Panax notoginseng is still unclear. OBJECTIVE:To identify the main components of Panax notoginseng using ultra-high performance liquid chromatography-Q exactive-mass spectrometry(UHPLC-QE-MS),and to explore the mechanism of Panax notoginseng in the treatment of osteoarthritis by combining network pharmacology,molecular docking and molecular dynamics simulation.
