Objective To explore the research hotspots and development trends in the field of cancer treatment in the past decade. Methods The CNKI and Web of Science Core Collection databases were searched for Chinese and English articles related to cancer treatment published over the last 10 years. Bibliometric research methods were employed, including keyword cluster analysis of published literature. Results A total of 45 455 Chinese articles and 866 958 English articles were retrieved. Combining the visualization analysis results and the current research dilemma of tumor treatment revealed that the current research hotspots of tumor treatment domestically and internationally can primarily focus on four key areas. In the realm of targeted therapy, efforts are directed towards the discovery of new drug targets, overcoming resistance to targeted therapy, and the development of monoclonal antibodies and antibody–drug conjugates. In the field of immunotherapy, the emphasis lies in enhancing the response rate to immune checkpoint inhibitors, determining the mechanisms behind resistance to immunotherapy, and improving the safety of treatment. The research in traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) covers evidence-based evaluation studies on TCM treatment, the identification of populations that can gain the most benefit from TCM, and strategies for improving the quality of life. In the area of novel drug development, cutting-edge technologies, such as organoid-based screening for anticancer drugs, synthetic biology, and artificial intelligence, are under investigation. Conclusion New targeted drugs, immune efficacy improvement, multidisciplinary integration, nano-delivery, and TCM innovation are the key research directions in the field of tumor therapy in the future.

Objective: To evaluate the safety and efficacy of preoperative autologous blood donation (PABD) under anesthesia monitoring in elective surgical procedures, and to provide scientific data for promoting its clinical application. Methods: 1) A total of 1 164 patients scheduled for elective surgery and met the criteria for stored autologous blood transfusion in our hospital from March 2022 to September 2023 were enrolled. Prior to surgery, stored autotransfusion was performed under anesthesia monitoring. During the operation, blood pressure (BP), heart rate (HR), blood oxygen saturation (SpO ) and other basic life indicators before and after blood collection were recorded and analyzed. Adverse reactions during blood collection were documented, and potential influencing factors were analyzed. 2) The autologous transfusion group (experimental group, patients receiving intraoperative autologous blood reinfusion) was compared with the allogeneic transfusion group (control group, patients without PABD during the same period) using propensity score matching. The length of hospital stay, transfusion-related costs, perioperative hemoglobin (Hb), hematocrit (Hct), platelet count (Plt) and coagulation function were compared between the two groups after matching. Results: 1) Three patients (0.26%) had adverse reactions during blood collection. Autologous blood transfusion was performed in 443 patients (38.1%) during or after operation, with no adverse reaction during blood transfusion. 2) The systolic blood pressure (SBP) and diastolic blood pressure (DBP) of patients after blood collection were lower than before blood collection, and the SpO was higher than before blood collection, with statistically significant differences (P<0.05); There was no significant difference in heart rate before and after blood collection (P>0.05); Our analysis found that age, gender, blood collection volume, department, or mild-to-moderate circulatory system complications didn’t significantly affect BP, HR and SpO fluctuations (P>0.05). 3) The experimental group had shorter hospital stays and lower transfusion costs than the control group (P<0.05). 4) No significant differences were observed in Hb, Hct, Plt levels or coagulation function (PT, APTT) between the two groups after operation (P>0.05). The hospitalization duration and transfusion related expenses in the experimental group were lower than those in the control group (P<0.05). Conclusion: PABD under anesthesia monitoring is safe and feasible in elective surgeries across diverse patient groups and surgical fields. It reduces the costs and conserves blood resources, which is worthy of further promotion.

Objective To analyze the disease burden of chronic kidney diseases (CKD) attributed to high body mass index (BMI) in China from 1992 to 2021 and predict the disease burden for the next decade, and to provide evidence for the prevention and treatment of CKD. Methods Using the Global Burden of Disease (GBD) database and the Joinpoint model, the average annual percentage rate change (AAPC) of the mortality rate and disability-adjusted life year (DALY) rate was calculated to describe and analyze the CKD disease burden attributed to high BMI in China from 1992 to 2021. The ARIMA model was employed to predict and analyze the change trend of the CKD disease burden. Results From 1992 to 2021, the mortality rate and DALY rate attributed to high BMI-induced chronic kidney disease showed an upward trend. Compared to 1992, the attributed number of deaths increased by 324.38%, and DALYs increased by 268.56%; the mortality rate increased by 64.00%, and the DALY rate grew by 51.62%. From 1992 to 2021, the mortality rate and DALY rate for males were lower than those for females, but the growth rate for males exceeded that of females. From 1992 to 2021, the mortality rate and DALY rate of chronic kidney disease attributed to high BMI in China increased with age. The average annual change rate of chronic kidney disease attributed to high BMI in China from 1992 to 2021 (mortality rate: 1.40 per 100,000 (95% CI: 1.04–1.76), DALY rate: 1.43 per 100 000 (95% CI: 1.17–1.70)) was higher than thHuaiyin Normal University, Huai'anher social demographic index (SDI) regions. The ARIMA model predicted that the age-standardized mortality rate increased from 2.91 per 100 000 in 2022 to 3.05 per 100 000 in 2026, and the age-standardized DALY rate increased from 69.65 per 100 000 in 2022 to 73.58 per 100 000 in 2026. Conclusion Chronic kidney disease attributed to high BMI in China is on the rise, and it will continue to grow in the future. The focus of CKD prevention and control should be on males and the elderly, while active measures should be taken to reduce the occurrence and progression of chronic kidney disease.

ObjectiveThe study aims to investigate the intervention effect of modified Xiangsha Liujunzitang （M-XSLJZ） on intestinal-derived lipopolysaccharide （LPS）-activated Kupffer cell inflammation in rats with hyperlipidemia spleen deficiency syndrome. MethodsSeventy male SD rats were randomly divided into seven groups （n=10）： blank control （CON）， high-fat diet without spleen deficiency （HFD）， high-fat diet with spleen deficiency （SD-HFD）， M-XSLJZ low-， medium-， and high-dose groups （XS-L， XS-M， XS-H）， and western medicine control （R）. Spleen deficiency was induced in SD-HFD， XS-L， XS-M， XS-H， and R groups via irregular diet combined with exhaustive swimming for 15 days. The CON group received a standard diet， while other groups were fed a high-fat diet for 10 weeks to establish the hyperlipidemia model. After successful modeling， rats were treated for 8 weeks： M-XSLJZ was administered at 3.51， 7.02， 14.04 g·kg^-1 in XS-L， XS-M， and XS-H groups， respectively. The R group received 9×10^-4 g·kg^-1 of a reference drug. D-xylose excretion rate was measured by the phloroglucinol method. Blood lipids were assessed using an automated biochemical analyzer. Hematoxylin-eosin （HE） staining was used to evaluate the pathological conditions of the liver， and oil red O staining was used to observe the lipid deposition in the liver. The levels of LPS， portal vein serum LPS， LPS-binding protein （LBP）， serum interleukin-6 （IL-6）， IL-1β， and tumor necrosis factor-α （TNF-α） were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay （ELISA）. Immunofluorescence was used to evaluate CD86 expression and CD68/TLR4 co-localization in the liver. Protein levels of TLR4， MyD88， NF-κB p65， and p-NF-κB p65 in Kupffer cells were analyzed via Western blot automated protein analysis. Hepatic IL-6， TNF-α， and IL-1β mRNA and protein levels were measured using Real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction （Real-time PCR） and Western blot. ResultsCompared with the CON group， the SD-HFD group showed a decrease in D-xylose excretion （P<0.01）. TC， TG， HDL-C， and LDL-C increased （P<0.05， P<0.01）. A large number of hepatic lipid vacuoles and orange-red lipid droplet deposition appeared in the liver. Ileal LPS， portal LPS， and LBP increased （P<0.05， P<0.01）. The levels of serum IL-6， TNF-α， and IL-1β increased （P<0.01）. The expression of CD86 was upregulated （P<0.01）， and the co-expression of CD68 and TLR4 was enhanced. The protein levels of TLR4， MyD88， and p-p65 in Kupffer cells increased （P<0.01）. The mRNA and protein levels of IL-6， TNF-α， and IL-1β increased （P<0.05， P<0.01）. Compared with the HFD group， the SD-HFD group exhibited decreased D-xylose excretion （P<0.01）， higher HDL-C， LDL-C （P<0.05）， increased portal LBP and LPS （P<0.05）， increased serum IL-6 and TNF-α （P<0.01）， upregulated CD86 （P<0.01）， enhanced CD68/TLR4 co-expression， and higher TNF-α mRNA/protein （P<0.05）. Compared with the SD-HFD group， all M-XSLJZ treatment groups showed reduced TC， TG， and LDL-C （P<0.05， P<0.01）. XS-H and R groups displayed improved hepatic lipid deposition. XS-H and R groups had lower ileal LPS， portal LPS， and LBP levels （P<0.05， P<0.01）. All M-XSLJZ treatment groups exhibited reduced serum IL-6， IL-1β， and TNF-α （P<0.01）. The XS-H group showed downregulated CD86 （P<0.01） and weakened CD68/TLR4 co-expression. The XS-H group had reduced TLR4， MyD88， and p-NF-κB p65 in Kupffer cells （P<0.01）. XS-H and R groups showed lower IL-6， TNF-α， and IL-1β mRNA/protein （P<0.05， P<0.01）. ConclusionM-XSLJZ may exert its lipid-lowering effects by inhibiting intestinal-derived LPS and alleviating Kupffer cell inflammation in the liver.

The application of artificial intelligence （AI） in the medical field has significantly improved medical efficiency， yet it has also posed numerous ethical challenges. From the perspective of traditional Confucianism， this paper explored ethical challenges faced in the application of medical AI and the responses of Confucianism， elaborating on the importance of Confucianism in achieving value alignment. This paper analyzed the ethical dilemmas faced by medical AI in practical applications from four aspects， including the doctor-patient trust crisis， patient safety issues， fairness and conflict of interest， and challenges of responsibility attribution. It also explored the application of Confucianism in the ethical governance of medical AI， focusing on the analysis of how “benevolence，”“righteousness，” and role ethics deal with issues such as doctor-patient trust， patient safety， fairness， market profit-seeking， and responsibility allocation. By emphasizing the guiding role of ethical principles in technological development through the principle of “governing technology with ethics，” the achievement of the value alignment goal in medical AI can be promoted. Confucianism provides an important ethical foundation for the value alignment of medical AI. Its core concepts run through the deep integration of technology and ethics， offering unique cultural wisdom and practical solutions for AI governance on a global scale.

OBJECTIVE To construct an evaluation index system for the core competencies of ethics committee members of drug clinical trial institution， providing a basis for optimizing the training system for committee members， improving the quality of ethical review， and fully safeguarding the safety and rights of subjects. METHODS Using methods such as literature research and expert consultation， a preliminary core competency evaluation index system was constructed. The Delphi method was employed to revise and validate it， ultimately forming an evaluation index system for the core competencies of ethics committee members. Based on this system， a questionnaire survey was conducted among 90 ethics committee members from 29 drug clinical trial institutions nationwide， comparing their importance rating and self-assessment scores of the core competency indexes. RESULTS The evaluation system constructed included 4 primary indicators （ethics and professional knowledge， ethics review ability， communication and expression ability， moral integrity and work style） and 39 secondary indicators （familiarity with the content of clinical trial-related laws and regulations， ability to complete project ethics review and identify ethical defects in research protocols within a short period of time， ability to judge the scientific value of clinical research， etc.）. The results of questionnaire survey showed that the interviewed ethics committee members had significant capability gaps in dimensions such as regulatory knowledge， ethical norms， review efficiency， risk judgment， and problem analysis. The differences between the importance rating scores of corresponding secondary indicators and the self-assessment scores were all no less than 0.38. CONCLUSIONS This study has developed a quantifiable and stratified core competency assessment tool for ethics committee members. It can provide a scientific framework for committee member training， qualification certification， and standardized management of ethics committees.

Objective:To explore the application effect of objectives and key results (OKR) management method in the clinical intensive training of emergency department nurses.Methods:A total of 90 nurses from the emergency department of The First Affiliated Hospital of Hebei North University who participated in clinical intensive training from September to December 2022 were selected. They were randomly divided into a control group and an observation group (45 in each group) using a random number table. The observation group was managed using OKR method, while the control group was managed using the conventional management method. The academic performance (theoretical knowledge and practical operation), clinical comprehensive ability (nurse core competency evaluation form), self-learning ability (Self-Rating Scale of Self-Directed Learning), and training satisfaction were compared between two groups of nurses at the end of each month (for a total of 3 months).Results:The observation group had significantly higher theoretical knowledge scores [(65.78±5.11), (77.89±4.22), (85.10±4.70)] and practical operation scores [(62.33±4.01), (72.45±4.29), (83.20±5.10)] than the control group [(61.99±6.09), (74.18±4.09), (82.60±5.40); (60.09±4.56), (70.24±4.11), (80.70±4.60)]. The clinical comprehensive ability (nursing ability and critical clinical thinking), self-learning ability (learning behavior, learning awareness, learning strategies, and learning evaluation), and training satisfaction (theoretical knowledge training, clinical skills training, and work plan) of nurses in the observation group were also higher than those of nurses in the control group.Conclusions:The application of OKR management method in clinical intensive training of emergency department nurses can significantly improve their clinical abilities and knowledge level, mobilize their self-learning ability, and achieve higher satisfaction.

Cerebral hyperperfusion syndrome (CHS) is a rare but serious complication after cerebral revascularization, which may lead to catastrophic consequences. The mechanism of CHS is not fully understood, and it may be related to cerebral autoregulation dysfunction and the increase of blood pressure after operation. Timely detection and treatment of cerebral hyperperfusion can avoid CHS. This article reviews the pathogenesis, diagnosis, clinical manifestations, prevention and treatment of CHS.

Aim To investigate the effect of total glu-cosides of paeony on inflammatory injury and TLR4/NF-κB/NLRP3 pathway in autoimmune thyroiditis(AIT)rats.Methods The experiment was divided into control group,model group,total glucosides of pae-ony(TGP),TLR4 inhibitor group and TGP+TLR4 ag-onist group,with 10 animals in each group.Except for the control group,the rats in other groups were subcu-taneously injected with thyroglobulin and Freund's ad-juvant to induce the AIT rat model.After six weeks of administration,thyroid histopathological changes were observed using hematoxylin-eosin(HE)staining;ser-um levels of TPOAb,TgAb,TSH,T3,T4,TNF-α,INF-γ,IL-1 β and IL-1 β were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA);TLR4/NF-κB/NLRP3 pathway mRNAs and proteins expression in thyroid tis-sues were detected by RT-qPCR and Western blot.Re-sults Compared with the control group,the thyroid follicular epithelium of rats was significantly damaged,and the serum levels of TPOAb,TgAb,TSH,T3,T4,TNF-α,INF-γ,IL-1 β and IL-1 β increased(P＜0.01).The expression of TLR4/NF-κB/NLRP3 path-way mRNAs and proteins increased in the model group(P＜0.01).Compared with the model group,the damage of thyroid follicular epithelium was alleviated,and the serum levels of TPOAb,TgAb,TSH,T3,T4,TNF-α,INF-γ,IL-1 β and IL-1 β were reduced(P＜0.01),the expression of TLR4/NF-κB/NLRP3 path-way mRNAs and proteins were down-regulated in the TGP group and TLR4 inhibitor group(P＜0.01).Compared with TGP group,the damage of thyroid follic-ular epithelium was aggravated,and the levels of serum TPOAb,TgAb,TSH,T3,T4,TNF-α,INF-γ,IL-1 β and IL-1 β were elevated(P＜0.05 or P＜0.01),the pro-tein expressions of TLR4/NF-κB/NLRP3 pathway mR-NAs and proteins were up-regulated in TGP+TLR4 ag-onist group(P＜0.05 or P＜0.01).Conclusions TGP may play a protective role in thyroid by inhibiting the TLR4/NF-κB/NLRP3 pathway and improving the inflammatory injury of thyroid tissues.

Objective To systematically review the efficacy of anti-inflammatory drugs in the treatment of diabetic nephropathy(DN).Methods Databases including PubMed,The Cochrane Library,EMbase,Web of Science,Scopus,Ovid,ProQuest,CBM,CNKI,WanFang Data,VIP and Duxiu data were electronically searched to collect randomized controlled trials(RCTs)of anti-inflammatory drugs for DN from inception to April 5,2022.Two reviewers independently screened the literature,extracted data,and assessed the risk of bias of the included studies.RevMan 5.4 software were then used to perform Meta-analysis.Results A total of 29 literature and 26 RCTs involving 4 095 patients were included.The results of Meta-analysis showed that compared with conventional treatment,conventional treatment combined with anti-inflammatory drugs could effectively reduce urinary albumin to creatinine ratio[SMD=-0.17,95％CI(-0.31,-0.03),P=0.02],urinary albumin excretion rate[SMD=-0.37,95％CI(-0.56,-0.18),P=0.000 1],urinary protein excretion rate[SMD=-0.97,95％CI(-1.29,-0.64),P=0.000 01],and glycosylated hemoglobin[SMD=-0.17,95％CI(-0.27,-0.08),P=0.000 4],while there was no significant difference in reducing serum creatinine[SMD=-0.04,95％CI(-0.19,0.1),P=0.57],urea nitrogen[MD=-0.23,95％CI(-0.50,0.04),P=0.09]and fasting blood glucose[SMD=-0.15,95％CI(-0.32,0.02),P=0.08].There was no statistically significant difference in changing glomerular filtration rate(GFR)[SMD=-0.04,95％CI(-0.15,0.07),P=0.47]with multiple drugs,except for a few drugs.Conclusion Conventional treatment combined with anti-inflammatory drugs can better improve the level of proteinuria in patients with DN,but the improvement of renal function is not obvious.Due to the limitations of the number of included studies and the duration of treatment,the above conclusion needs to be verified by more high-quality studies.
