OBJECTIVE To systematically evaluate the effects of oral non-peptidic thrombopoietin receptor agonists （TPO-RAs） on hepatic enzyme in adult patients with immune thrombocytopenia. METHODS A comprehensive literature search was conducted in PubMed， Web of Science， CNKI， Wanfang database and the Chinese Medical Association Journal Full-Text Database to collect randomized controlled trials （RCTs） comparing oral non-peptidic TPO-RAs （intervention group） with placebo or conventional therapy （control group）. All databases were searched from their inception to June 2025. After literature screening， data extraction and quality assessment of the included studies， meta-analysis was conducted using RevMan 5.4.1 software. RESULTS Twelve RCTs comprising 1 388 patients were included， with 971 in the intervention group and 417 in the control group. Meta-analysis results showed that there were no significant differences between the two groups in terms of the incidence of hepatic enzyme elevation[OR＝1.24， 95%CI （0.77， 1.99）， P ＝0.37 ] ， the incidence of hepatic enzyme elevation in patients treated for ≥6 weeks[OR＝1.21， 95%CI （0.73， 1.99）， P ＝0.46 ] ， and the incidence of severe hepatic enzyme elevation[OR＝1.39， 95%CI（0.46， 4.20）， P ＝0.55 ] . Subgroup analysis showed that there were no significant differences in the incidence of hepatic enzyme elevation between the intervention group and control group among patients using eltrombopag[OR＝1.57，95%CI（0.85，2.87）， P ＝0.15 ] ， avatrombopag[OR＝0.88，95%CI （0.09，8.46）， P ＝0.91 ] ， and hetrombopag[OR＝1.04，95%CI（0.30，3.65）， P ＝0.95 ] ， respectively. CONCLUSIONS Oral non-peptidic TPO-RAs do not significantly increase the risk of hepatic enzyme elevation in adult patients with immune thrombocytopenia， and show an overall favorable hepatic safety profile.

To summarize the clinical practice of continuous medical service for patients at Shanghai Children′s Medical Center, affiliated with Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine, from September 2023 to December 2024, following the approval of its extended care qualification. This study utilized a mixed-methods research design that integrates quantitative and qualitative approaches. The quantitative study included a total of 117 subjects, with an age range of 18 to 35 years, an average age of 21.56 years, and a median age of 19 years; there were 59 males and 58 females. The disease types covered four major categories: childhood leukemia and solid tumors (68 cases), congenital structural malformations (25 cases), congenital hereditary metabolic diseases (4 cases), and rare diseases (20 cases). Among the subjects, 57.26% (67 cases) were first-time visitors to SCMC. The patients came from 20 provinces, autonomous regions, and municipalities across the country, with 88.03% (103 cases) from outside Shanghai. The treatment outcomes showed improvement or cure in 80.34% (94 cases) of the subjects, and there were no medical complaints. In addition, a qualitative study was conducted to deeply explore the experiences, confusions, and challenges of receiving or implementing continuous medical services from the perspectives of patients and their families, as well as medical staff. According to the inclusion and exclusion criteria, a total of 44 subjects were included in the study, among them, there were 12 patients, 12 family members who were taking care of the patients in SCMC, and 20 corresponding medical staff members. The results of the qualitative study showed that trust in the attending physicians of the children′s specialty hospital, a good doctor-patient relationship, satisfactory treatment outcomes, and support from medical insurance policies are the main driving forces for patients over 18 years old to receive continuous treatment at children′s specialty hospitals. The medical staff of the hospital also believed that this model can promote patient benefits. In conclusion, under the policy support of the Shanghai Municipal Health Commission, the "Six Fixed" Model for continuous treatment established by SCMC has achieved certain positive results in practice. This provides practical references for the development of continuous treatment in China and offers new strategies for the application of preventive medicine in the field of children′s health.

Objective To investigate the current symptom status of maintenance hemodialysis(MHD)patients,analyze the influencing factors from the perspective of multidimensional symptom burden,extract symptom groups,and construct a symptom network.Methods A total of 490 patients who received MHD at the blood purification center of a tertiary hospital in Shanghai from March to April 2025 were selected using a convenience sampling method.30 symptoms of MHD patients were investigated using a modified dialysis symptom index table.SPSS and R software were utilized to analyze the influencing factors,extract symptom groups,and construct a multidimensional symptom network.Results A total of 488 valid questionnaires were collected,with a valid questionnaire recovery rate of 99.59％.The median number of symptoms experienced by patients was 6(interquartile range:4,8),with the top 5 symptoms being dry skin(69.88％),fatigue or tiredness(56.97％),itching(56.97％),worry(50.20％),and dry mouth(46.31％).Multidimensional analysis indicated that age,duration of dialysis,education level,and complications were influencing factors of symptom burden scores across different dimensions.6 stable symptom groups were extracted,namely skin discomfort,fatigue and pain,gastrointestinal tract,sleep disorders,water-electrolyte imbalance,and uremia.The results of the symptom network analysis revealed that difficulty of falling asleep had the highest intensity centrality(rs=2.18,2.25,2.12).Conclusion The symptom association is relatively stable,and difficulty of falling asleep is the core symptom.This finding can assist clinical medical staff in achieving efficiency and precision in symptom group management.

The treatment of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) faces significant challenges due to tumor heterogeneity and the complexity of the immune microenvironment. The cyclic GMP-AMP synthase (cGAS) -stimulator of interferon gene (STING) signaling pathway plays a dual role in NSCLC, serving both as a crucial hub for anti-tumor immunity and as a potential driver of metastasis. The clinical translation of STING agonists confronts a series of challenges, including delivery barriers, double-edged sword effects, and patient heterogeneity. Consequently, exploring the combined application of STING agonists with radiotherapy/chemotherapy, immune checkpoint inhibitors, and novel immunotherapies, alongside leveraging artificial intelligence-driven multi-omics models for individualized prediction and treatment, holds significant importance. A deeper understanding of the molecular regulatory network of the cGAS-STING signaling pathway and its dynamic functions within the tumor microenvironment is essential for overcoming the current clinical challenges of targeted therapies and advancing the precision development of NSCLC immunotherapy strategies.

Medication adherence is an important indicator for assessing whether patients follow medical advice during treatment， and its level directly affects disease control and the quality of life of patients. Therefore， accurate and effective assessment is essential for chronic disease management and intervention. This paper takes chronic obstructive pulmonary disease （COPD） and asthma， two types of chronic respiratory diseases， as representative to review the existing measurement methods and current application status of medication adherence. It is found that the existing assessment methods for medication adherence can be categorized into objective measurement methods and subjective measurement methods. Objective measures include drug concentration monitoring， pill counting， and electronic medication devices， which generally offer high accuracy. Subjective measures include physician assessments， inhalation technique evaluations， and questionnaires. While these methods are straightforward and easy to implement， their accuracy is often influenced by the subjective factors of assessors of patients， which may lead to biased results. Currently， there is still a lack of a universally accepted “gold standard” for evaluating medication adherence. Selecting the appropriate measurement method requires a comprehensive consideration of factors such as research objectives， disease type， patient characteristics， and data availability to ensure the validity and reliability of the assessment results.
