Breast cancer has become the malignant tumor with the highest incidence rate among women， seriously threatening the life and health of women all over the world. The pathogenic factors and development mechanisms of breast cancer are complex and diverse. The development of breast cells from ordinary hyperplasia to atypical hyperplasia， and from pre-cancerous lesions to cancerous lesions， is a long-term progressive process. Therefore， early screening and prevention of breast cancer is particularly important. Western medicine has a relatively mature treatment program for breast cancer， which is mainly based on surgery and systemic treatment， whereas the ensuing complications and adverse reactions often bring a heavy burden to patients. For the precancerous lesions of breast cancer， surgery is also the mainstay of treatment. In recent years， traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） has increasingly highlighted its advantages in the prevention and treatment of breast cancer. Increasing studies have shown that in the prevention and treatment of breast cancer and pre-cancerous lesions， TCM compound prescriptions， single herbs or herb pairs， and active components are able to regulate a variety of intracellular signaling pathways through multi-targets to inhibit the proliferation and invasion， promote the apoptosis and autophagy of tumor cells， and regulate the cell cycle and the immune microenvironment， thus exerting anti-tumor effects. At the same time， they can significantly attenuate the toxic side effects of radiotherapy and drug resistance of patients. However， the specific mechanisms of TCM in the prevention and treatment of breast cancer and precancerous lesions have not been fully clarified. The available studies are tanglesome regarding the TCM inhibition of tumor development through the regulation of classical signaling pathways such as phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase （PI3K）/protein kinase B （Akt）/mammalian target of rapamycin （mTOR）， Wnt/β-catenin， and Notch， which still need to be verified by a large number of clinical and experimental studies. Therefore， this paper reviews the research progress in the prevention and treatment of breast cancer and precancerous lesions by TCM through interfering with the relevant signaling pathways in recent years， aiming to summarize the possible mechanisms of TCM in the prevention and treatment of breast cancer and provide references for subsequent studies.

ObjectiveBy exploring the influencing factors of readmission in patients with stable angina of coronary heart disease （CHD） based on real-world clinical data， to establish a risk prediction model of integrated traditional Chinese and western medicine， in order to provide a basis for early identification of high-risk populations and reducing readmission rates. MethodsA prospective clinical study was conducted involving patients with stable angina pectoris of CHD， who were divided into a training set and a validation set at a 7∶3 ratio. General information， traditional Chinese medicine （TCM）-related data， and laboratory test results were uniformly collected. After a one-year follow-up， patients were classified into a readmission group and a non-readmission group based on whether they were readmitted. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were performed to identify independent risk factors for readmission. A risk prediction model of integrated traditional Chinese and western medicine was constructed and visualized using a nomogram. The model was validated and evaluated in terms of discrimination， calibration， and clinical decision curve analysis. ResultsA total of 682 patients were included， with 477 in the training set and 205 in the validation set， among whom 89 patients were readmitted. Multivariate logistic regression analysis identified heart failure history ［OR = 6.93， 95% CI （1.58， 30.45）］， wiry pulse ［OR = 2.58， 95% CI （1.42， 4.72）］， weak pulse ［OR = 3.97， 95% CI （2.06， 7.67）］， teeth-marked tongue ［OR = 4.38， 95% CI （2.32， 8.27）］， blood stasis constitution ［OR = 2.17， 95% CI （1.06， 4.44）］， phlegm-stasis mutual syndrome ［OR = 3.64， 95% CI （1.87， 7.09）］， and elevated non-high-density lipoprotein cholesterol ［OR = 1.30， 95% CI （1.01， 1.69）］ as influencing factors of readmission. These factors were used as predictors to construct a nomogram-based risk prediction model for readmission in patients with stable angina. The model demonstrated moderate predictive capability， with an area under the receiver operating characteristic curve （AUC） of 0.818 ［95% CI （0.781， 0.852）］ in the training set and 0.816 ［95% CI （0.779， 0.850）］ in the validation set. The Hosmer-Lemeshow test showed good calibration （χ² = 4.55， P = 0.80）， and the model's predictive ability was stable. When the threshold probability exceeded 5%， the clinical net benefit of using the model to predict readmission risk was significantly higher than intervening in all patients. ConclusionHistory of heart failure， teeth-marked tongue， weak pulse， wiry pulse， phlegm-stasis mutual syndrome， blood stasis constitution， and non-high-density lipoprotein cholesterol are influencing factors for readmission in patients with stable angina of CHD. A clinical prediction model was developed based on these factors， which showed good discrimination， calibration， and clinical utility， providing a scientific basis for predicting readmission events in patients with stable angina.

Objective:To investigate the application value of needle-knife accurate fistulo-tomy (NKAF) for difficult biliary cannulation during endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreato-graphy (ERCP).Methods:The retrospective and descriptive study was conducted. The clinicopatho-logical data of 137 patients with difficult biliary cannulation during ERCP at Xinhua Hospital Affiliated to Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine between January 2021 and December 2022 were collected. There were 51 males and 86 females, aged (69±13)years. All 137 patients received NKAF for cannulation during ERCP. Observation indicators: (1) surgical situations; (2) complications. Measurement data with normal distribution were represented as Mean± SD. Count data were repre-sented as absolute numbers. Results:(1) Surgical situations. Of 137 patients, 136 cases had succe-ssful cannulation, 1 case had failed cannulation with NKAF following unsuccessful double-guidewire technique. In the 136 successful cases, the endoscope was straightened in 42 cases, left in a long position in 37 cases, and maintained in the standard position in 57 cases. The cannulation time was (90±8)s. (2) Complications. The serum amylase at postoperative 6 hours in the 136 successful cases was (163±23)U/L. No patient developed post-ERCP pancreatitis. Of the 136 patients with successful cannulation, one case experienced post-sphincterotomy bleeding, which was observed oozing from the papillary orifice on emergency gastroscopy. The patient was successfully controlled with endoscopic clips.Conclusion:NKAF is safe and effective for difficult biliary cannulation during ERCP.

Background: and Purpose Limited evidence exists on the effectiveness of endovascular treatment (EVT) for acute posterior circulation tandem lesion (PCTL). This study aimed to explore the role of extracranial vertebral artery (VA) stenting in patients with PCTL stroke undergoing EVT. Methods: Individual patient data were pooled from the BASILAR (EVT for Acute Basilar Artery Occlusion Study) and PERSIST (Posterior Circulation Ischemic Stroke) registries. Patients with PCTLs who underwent EVT were included in the present cohort and divided into the stenting and nonstenting groups based on the placement of extracranial VA stents. The primary efficacy outcome was the modified Rankin Scale (mRS) scores at 90 days and 1 year. Safety outcomes included 24-hour symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage (sICH) and all-cause mortality at 90 days and 1 year post-surgery. Results: A combined dataset of 1,320 patients with posterior circulation artery occlusion, including 263 (19.9%) with tandem lesions, of whom 217 (median age, 65 years; 82.9% male) met the inclusion criteria for the analysis. The stenting group had 84 (38.7%) patients, while the non-stenting group had 133 (61.3%). After adjustment for the potential confounders, extracranial VA stenting was associated with favorable shifts in mRS scores at both 90 days (adjusted common odds ratio [OR], 2.30; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.23–4.28; P<0.01) and 1 year (adjusted OR [aOR], 2.04; 95% CI [1.05–3.97]; P=0.04), along with lower rate of mortality at both 90 days (aOR, 0.45; 95% CI [0.21–0.93]; P=0.01) and 1 year (aOR, 0.36; 95% CI [0.16–0.79]; P=0.01), with no significant difference in sICH incidence (aOR, 0.35; 95% CI [0.06–1.98]; P=0.24). Conclusion Extracranial VA stenting during EVT may improve functional outcomes and reduce mortality in patients with PCTL strokes.

Objective:To investigate the changes of pathogenic bacteria distribution and immune response of urinary tract infection(UTI)after pyeloureteroplasty in children.Methods:A total of 150 children with obstructive hydronephroplasty who received pyeloureteroplasty in Qinghai Women and Children's Hospital from February 2020 to June 2023 were selected as the study objects.The postoperative urine of the children was collected,the pathogens were identified by automatic bacterial analyzer,and the patients were divided into infected group and uninfected group according to the infection status.The detection of pathogenic bacteria in children with UTI was analyzed.The clinical data of the two groups were compared,and the influencing factors of postoperative UTI were screened by Logistic regression analysis,and the prediction model was established and verified.The changes of immune response were compared between the two groups.Results:UTI occurred in 56 cases(37.33%)of 150 children who underwent pyeloureteroplasty.There were 58 strains of gram-negative bacteria,29 strains of gram-positive bacteria and 2 strains of fungi isolated.The main pathogenic bacteria was Escherichia coli.Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that serum creatinine(SCr)and hydronephrosis volume/renal volume(HV/RV)levels increased,urinary catheter retention time,urinary bag replacement time and hospital stay were risk factors for UTI after pyeloureteroplasty in children,increased age and elevated albumin(Alb)were protective factors(P<0.05).Through Bootstrap self-sampling,the prediction model had good differentiation and accuracy.There was no significant difference in the levels of CD4+,CD8+and IgM between the two groups before surgery(P>0.05),and the levels of CD4+,CD8+and IgM were signi-ficantly improved between the two groups after surgery,and the improvement degree of the uninfected group was significantly better than that of the infected group(P<0.05).Conclusion:The pathogens of UTI in children after pyeloureteroplasty are mainly gram-nega-tive bacteria,and the immune function is increased 7 days after the operation.

Objective:To explore the safety and long-term efficacy of transvaginal reconstructive pelvic surgery (TVRPS) in ≥70-year-old women with severe pelvic organ prolapse (POP).Methods:A single-center, prospective cohort study was conducted on 343 elderly women patients with severe POP who received TVRPS at the Fourth Medical Center, Chinese PLA General Hospital, Medical School of Chinese PLA from March 2007 to September 2024. There were 297 cases (86.6%, 297/343) of Ⅲ degree and 46 cases (13.4%, 46/343) of Ⅳ degree prolapse respectively. Among them, anterior pelvic prolapse accounted for 80.8% (277/343), and those with prolapse in two or more sites accounted for 30.0% (103/343). The age was (74.2±3.4) years (range: 70 to 89 years old). There were 300 cases (87.5%, 300/343) with more than one internal medicine disease. Preoperative general conditions were assessed using American Society of Anesthesiologists physical status classification system (ASA) and American College of Surgeons National Surgical Quality Improvement Program-frailty index (ACS NSQIP-FI). TVRPS surgeries included transvaginal hysterectomy, salpingooophorectomy, high uterosacral ligament suspension, sacrospinous ligament fixation, native tissue and mesh repair of the anterior and posterior vaginal walls, mid-urethral sling for anti-urinary incontinence, and levator anal muscle folding suture and perineal repair. Perioperative complications were evaluated using Clavien-Dindo classification system. The objective effect of TVRPS was determined based on pelvic organ prolapse quantification system (POP-Q), and the subjective results were evaluated using pelvic floor distress inventory-short form 20 (PFDI-20), pelvic floor impact questionnaire-short form 7 (PFIQ-7) and patient global impression of improvement (PGI-I).Results:All patients had a preoperative ASA grade of ≤gradeⅡ, and ACS NSQIP-FI score of ≤0.27. All patients safely and successfully underwent all TVRPS surgeries. The operation time was (154.2±43.2) minutes. The perioperative morbidity and mortality rate were 0.6% (2/343) and 0 (0/343) respectively. None of the patient needed blood transfusion. The follow-up time was (7.5±4.3) years, with the longest being 17 years. Thirty-four cases (9.9%, 34/343) were lost to follow-up, and 22 cases (6.4%, 22/343) died of internal diseases during the follow-up period. The point values of Aa, Ba, C, Ap and Bp in the POP-Q system were significantly decreased after the operation (all P<0.01), the genital hiatus was significantly shortened (all P<0.01), and the perineal body was significantly elongated (all P<0.01). The scores of PFDI-20 and PFIQ-7 were significantly lower than those before the operation (all P<0.01). There were 332 cases (96.8%, 332/343) with an overall symptom impression improvement score of PGI-I≤2. Conclusion:The results on 343 elderly women with severe POP aged an average of 74.2 years show that for elderly POP patients who still have the desire to preserve the vagina and do not meet the conditions for colpocleisis, as long as there is a comprehensive understanding and strict evaluation of the overall condition before the operation, TVRPS is a safe, feasible and long-lasting therapeutic procedure.
