Sepsis is a life-threatening organ dysfunction caused by a dysregulated host response to infection. Septic shock is the primary cause of mortality in sepsis, with its core pathophysiological mechanism being severe ischemia and hypoxia in critical units—composed of microcirculation and the mitochondria of functional cells—resulting from disruptions in blood flow and oxygen flow following a dysregulated host response. Due to the systemically convergent yet clinically heterogeneous nature of the host response, current understanding and management strategies for hemodynamics remain inconsistent, often leading to inadequate resuscitation or overtreatment. To improve the quality of care, based on a systematic review of the "blood flow-oxygen flow" theory, an expert panel emphasizes reevaluating septic shock from an integrated perspective of blood flow and oxygen flow, and has formulated the Expert Consensus on Blood Flow and Oxygen Delivery Phenotyping and Clinical Management of Septic Shock (2025). The consensus proposes that clinical typing of blood flow-oxygen flow should comprehensively consider cardiac function, vascular tone, oxygen flow utilization status in critical units, and disease trajectory, while optimizing subtype identification by integrating host response phenotypes and artificial intelligence technologies. It advocates establishing a continuous assessment system through multi-site oxygen flow monitoring for organ perfusion, peripheral perfusion monitoring, and critical care ultrasound. Under the framework of the "critical care triangle", the consensus promotes the implementation of individualized, bundled management strategies, providing guidance for multiple management points to restore blood flow-oxygen flow matching, reduce the risk of organ failure, and decrease patient mortality.

With the rapid advancement of hemodynamic indices and monitoring technologies, their classification methods and application processes have become increasingly complex. Currently, no unified standard hasbeen established, making it difficult to fully meet the clinical requirements for hemodynamic management. To assist in hemodynamic monitoring assessment and therapeutic decision-making in critically ill patients, the Critical Hemodynamic Therapy Collaborative Group, in conjunction with the Critical Ultrasound Study Group, has jointly developed the Standard for the Application of Hemodynamic Monitoring Techniques in Critical Care. The first part of this standard systematically categorizes hemodynamic indicators into flow indicators, pressure and its derivative indicators, and tissue perfusion indicators, while elaborating on the clinical application of each. The second part establishes a standardized clinical implementation pathway for hemodynamic monitoring. It proposes a tiered monitoring strategy-comprising basic, advanced, indication-specific, and special scenario monitoring-tailored to different clinical settings. It emphasizes the central role of critical care ultrasound across all levels of monitoring and establishes hemodynamic assessment standards for organs such as the brain, kidneys, and gastrointestinal tract. This standard aims to provide a unified framework for clinical practice, teaching, training, and research in critical care medicine, thereby promoting standardized development within the discipline.

Dry eye disease (DED) is a prevalent and intractable ocular disease induced by a variety of causes. Elevated sphingomyelin (SM) levels and pro-inflammatory cytokines were detected on the ocular surface of DED patients, particularly in the meibomian glands. Sphingomyelin synthase 2 (SMS2), one of the proteins involved in SM synthesis, would light a novel way of developing a DED therapy strategy. Herein, we report the design and optimization of a series of novel thiophene carboxamide derivatives to afford 14l with an improved highly potent inhibitory activity on SM synthesis (IC_{50, SMS2} = 28 nmol/L). Moreover, 14l exhibited a notable protective effect of anti-inflammation and anti-apoptosis on human corneal epithelial cells (HCEC) under TNF-α-hyperosmotic stress conditions in vitro, with an acceptable ocular specific distribution (corneas and meibomian glands) and pharmacokinetics (PK) profiles (t _{1/2, cornea} = 1.11 h; t _{1/2, meibomian glands} = 4.32 h) in rats. Furthermore, 14l alleviated the dry eye symptoms including corneal fluorescein staining scores and tear secretion in a dose-dependent manner in mice. Mechanically, 14l reduced the mRNA expression of Tnf-α, Il-1β and Mmp-9 in corneas, as well as the proportion of very long chain SM in meibomian glands. Our findings provide a new strategy for DED therapy based on selective SMS2 inhibitors.

Objective:To analyze the incidence and risk factors of malignant tumors among HIV-infected patients in Taizhou, Zhejiang Province.Methods:The data were collected from the China Information System for Disease Control and Prevention and the Taizhou Chronic Disease Information Management System. A retrospective cohort study design was used. The subjects were HIV-infected patients who had their household registration in Taizhou from 2005 to 2023 and participated in the follow-up. The observation period was until December 31, 2024. The standardized incidence ratios (SIR) of malignant tumors among HIV-infected patients were analyzed. Cox proportional hazards regression model was used to analyze the influencing factors of malignant tumor incidence.Results:A total of 3 593 HIV-infected patients were included, of whom 292 had malignant tumors. The proportions of AIDS-defining malignancies and non-AIDS-defining malignancies were 12.33% (36/292) and 87.67% (256/292), respectively. The proportion of malignant tumors before and after AIDS confirmation was 43.49% (127/292) and 56.51% (165/292), respectively. 3 466 HIV-infected patients were included in the follow-up cohort, with a total follow-up of 24 968.59 person-years. The incidence rate of malignant tumors in patients with HIV infection was 658.46 per 100 000 (SIR=1.89, 95% CI: 1.61-2.20). The SIR of malignant tumors showed an upward trend with the increase of time. The results of Cox proportional hazards regression model analysis showed that HIV-infected patients in the age groups of 45-59 and ≥60 years (a HR=2.58, 95% CI: 1.26-5.28; a HR=5.00, 95% CI: 2.38-10.51) were more likely to develop malignant tumors. HIV-infected patients with an educational level of senior high school or above (a HR=0.52, 95% CI: 0.29-0.95) and those in the first CD4 +T lymphocyte/CD8 +T lymphocyte count ratio ≥0.5 (a HR=0.52, 95% CI: 0.28-0.97) were less likely to develop malignant tumors. Conclusions:From 2005 to 2023, the incidence of malignant tumors among HIV-infected people in Taizhou was higher than that of the general population, and most of them were non-AIDS-defining malignancies. It is necessary to strengthen the early screening and diagnosis of malignant tumors among HIV-infected patients.
