Integrin α _v β ₃ is overexpressed in various tumor cells and angiogenesis. To date, no drug has been proven to target it for therapy. A first-in-human study was designed to investigate the safety, pharmacokinetics, and dosimetry of ¹⁷⁷Lu-AB-3PRGD2, a novel integrin α _v β ₃-targeting radionuclide drug with an albumin-binding motif to optimize the pharmacokinetics. Ten patients (3 men, 7 women; aged 45 ± 16 years) with integrin α _v β ₃-avid tumors were recruited to accept ¹⁷⁷Lu-AB-3PRGD2 injection in a dosage of 1.57 ± 0.08 GBq (42.32 ± 2.11 mCi), followed by serial scans to obtain its dynamic distribution in the body. Safety tests were performed before and every 2 weeks after the treatment for 6-8 weeks. No adverse event over grade 3 was observed. ¹⁷⁷Lu-AB-3PRGD2 was excreted mainly through the urinary system, with intense radioactivity in the kidneys and bladder. Moderate distribution was found in the liver, spleen, and intestines. The estimated blood half-life was 2.85 ± 2.17 h. The whole-body effective dose was 0.251 ± 0.047 mSv/MBq. The absorbed doses were 0.157 ± 0.032 mGy/MBq in red bone marrow and 0.684 ± 0.132 mGy/MBq in kidneys. This first-in-human study of ¹⁷⁷Lu-AB-3PRGD2 treatment indicates its promising potential for targeted radionuclide therapy of integrin α _v β ₃-avid tumors. It merits further studies in more patients with escalating doses and multiple treatment courses.

Objective To construct the respiratory rehabilitation calisthenics for school-age children with asthma,and evaluate its effects,in order to provide a guidance for the scientific and effective implementation of respiratory rehabilitation in clinical work.Methods By convenience sampling method,the school-age children with asthma treated in the respiratory outpatient department of a tertiary specialized children's hospital in Chongqing from De-cember 2023 to February 2024 were selected.The children were randomly divided into an experimental group and the control group(25 of each group)by a random number table.Both groups were given routine asthma drug in-halation treatment and health education.Additionally,the experimental group received respiratory rehabilitation calis-thenics training and the control group received conventional aerobic exercise training.After 3-month intervention,the effects of adherence to respiratory rehabilitation training,lung functions,exercise capacity,inspiratory muscle strength and occurrence of adverse events were evaluated between 2 groups.Results 24 children of each group completed the study.After 3-month intervention,the adherence to respiratory rehabilitation training,exercise capacity and in-spiratory muscle strength were improved in the experimental group compared with those in the control group,and all differences were statistically significant(P＜0.05).There were no adverse events in both groups.Conclusion The respiratory rehabilitation calisthenics for school-age children with asthma constructed in this study was scientif-ic,feasible and safe,and could improve exercise capacity and inspiratory muscle strength for children with asthma.

Objective To explore the efficacy of a model combining clinicopathological characteristics and multiparametric MRI features for predicting BRCA-mutated breast cancer(BC).Methods A total of 256 BC patients were retrospectively selected and divided into BRCA mutation group(116 cases)and BRCA wild group(140 cases)based on the BRCA results.Chi-square tests or independ-ent sample t-tests were used to compare the differences in clinicopathological characteristics and multiparametric MRI features between the BRCA mutation group and the wild group.Risk factors for BRCA-mutated BC were identified through univariate and multivariate logistic regression ananlyses,and a combined predictive model was constructed.Receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve was used to ana-lyze the diagnostic efficacy of the model.Results There were statistically significant differences in T stage,human epidermal growth factor receptor 2(HER-2),Ki-67,non-mass enhancement,enhancement pattern,time-signal intensity curve(TIC)type,and apparent diffusion coefficient(ADC)values between the BRCA mutation group and the wild group.Univariate logistic regression analysis showed that T stage,HER-2,Ki-67,non-mass enhancement,enhancement pattern,TIC type,and ADC values were risk factors for BRCA-mutated BC(P<0.05).Multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that T stage,HER-2,Ki-67,enhancement pattern,and TIC type were independent risk factors for BRCA-mutated BC(P<0.05).The combined model incorporating T stage,HER-2,Ki-67,enhancement pattern,and TIC type had the best diagnostic efficacy in predicting BRCA-mutated BC,with an area under the curve(AUC)of 0.751.Conclusion The combined model integrating T stage,HER-2,Ki-67,enhancement pattern,and TIC type has good efficacy in predicting BRCA-mutated BC.

Objective To evaluate drug-related problems(DRPs)and to analyze the influencing factors of patients un-dergoing video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery(VATS)before operation in thoracic surgery.Methods Clinical pharmacists used the Pharmaceutical Care Network Europe(PCNE)classification system(version 9.1)to analyze DRPs and influencing fac-tors of patients who received VATS from March 1 to May 31,2023,and had at least one comorbidity.Results Out of 300 pa-tients,174 were involved in a total of 200 DRPs.The most common category of DRPs is treatment safety(47.50％),followed by treatment effectiveness(46.00％)and others(6.50％).The most common cause of the problem is drug selection(33.83％),fol-lowed by other(33.33％)and patient cause(19.90％).367 interventions were conducted for DRPs,with the most interventions being at the drug level(55.86％),followed by the doctor level(39.24％)and the patient level(3.54％).In the end,96.00％of the intervention plan was accepted,and 86.50％of the problems were resolved.There were significant differences(P＜0.05)in the number of underlying diseases,medication varieties,body mass index(BMI),and length of hospital stay between the group with and without DRPs.The results of multivariate analysis showed that comorbidities,number of medication types,and BMI were independent risk factors for preoperative occurrence(or potential)of DRPs in VATS patients in thoracic surgery(OR＞1,P＜0.05).Conclusions Clinical pharmacists can effectively evaluate preoperative DRPs in patients undergoing VATS in thoracic surgery through the PCNE classification system.Comorbidities,number of medications,and BMI are influential factors for the oc-currence of preoperative DRPs.Future clinical practice should focus on these risk factors to optimize treatment strategies and re-duce the occurrence of DRPs.

ObjectiveTo explore the mechanism by which Xiaoyaosan regulates HPT axis dysfunction in the rat model with the syndrome of liver depression and spleen deficiency by observing its effect on the glycoprotein hormone α-subunit （CGA）/glutathione peroxidase 2 （GPX2）/thyroid-stimulating hormone β-subunit （TSHβ） pathway for thyroid hormone synthesis. MethodsSeventy-two male SD rats were randomized into six groups： normal， model， high-dose （16.7 g·kg^-1）， medium-dose （8.35 g·kg^-1）， and low-dose （4.175 g·kg^-1） Xiaoyaosan， and fluoxetine （0.001 8 g·kg^-1） groups， with 12 rats in each group. The rat model of liver depression and spleen deficiency was induced by chronic restraint stress for 21 days. The intervention groups were treated with Xiaoyaosan decoctions or fluoxetine suspension， respectively. After modeling， hematoxylin-eosin staining was employed to observe morphological changes in the thyroid and pituitary tissue of the rats. Serum levels of triiodothyronine （T3）， tetraiodothyronine （T4）， and thyroid-stimulating hormone （TSH） were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay （ELISA）. Real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction （Real-time PCR） and Western blot were employed to determine the mRNA and protein levels， respectively， of TSH receptor （TSHR） in the thyroid tissue， thyrotropin-releasing hormone receptor （TRHR） and TSHβ in the pituitary tissue， and thyrotropin-releasing hormone （TRH）， CGA， GPX2， and TSHβ in the hypothalamic tissue. ResultsCompared with the normal group， the model group showed significant atrophy and irregularity of thyroid follicles， a marked reduction in colloid secretion， extensive vacuolar degeneration of adenocytes in the anterior pituitary， lowered serum levels of T3， T4， and TSH （P<0.01）， and down-regulated mRNA and protein levels of TSHR in the thyroid tissue， TRHR and TSHβ in the pituitary tissue， and TRH， CGA， GPX2， and TSHβ in the hypothalamic tissue （P<0.01）. Compared with the model group， high- and medium-dose Xiaoyaosan and fluoxetine alleviated the pathological changes in the thyroid and pituitary tissue， outperforming the low-dose Xiaoyaosan group. Moreover， they elevated the serum levels of T3， T4， and TSH （P<0.05， P<0.01）. The serum TSH level was also elevated in the low-dose Xiaoyaosan group （P<0.05）. The mRNA and protein levels of TSHR in the thyroid， TRHR and TSHβ in the pituitary， and TRH， CGA， GPX2， and TSHβ in the hypothalamus were up-regulated in the high- and medium-dose Xiaoyaosan groups （P<0.05， P<0.01）. Additionally， the mRNA and protein levels of TSHβ in the hypothalamus were up-regulated in the low-dose Xiaoyaosan group （P<0.01）. In the fluoxetine group， the mRNA and protein levels of TSHR in the thyroid， TRHR in the pituitary， and TRH， CGA， and GPX2 in the hypothalamus were up-regulated （P<0.05， P<0.01）. ConclusionThe downregulation of CGA/GPX2/TSHβ pathway may be one of the biological mechanisms underlying HPT axis dysfunction in the rat model with the syndrome of liver depression and spleen deficiency. Xiaoyaosan may regulate the HPT axis dysfunction by up-regulating the CGA/GPX2/TSHβ pathway.

Objective: To analyze the trends in incidence and mortality of prostate cancer in Jinhua City, Zhejiang Province from 2016 to 2024, so as to provide the evidence for the improvement of prostate cancer prevention and control measures. Methods: The incidence and mortality data of prostate cancer in Jinhua City from 2016 to 2024 were collected from the Chronic Disease Surveillance Information Management System of Zhejiang Province, and the crude incidence and mortality were calculated. The Chinese Sixth National Population Census in 2010 was used to calculate standardized incidence and mortality. The trends in incidence and mortality of prostate cancer were evaluated using average annual percent change (AAPC). Results: A total of 8 357 cases of prostate cancer were diagnosed in Jinhua City from 2016 to 2024. The crude incidence and standardized incidence were 37.36/100 000 and 21.17/100 000, respectively, showing upward trends (AAPC=16.275%, 12.511%, both P<0.05). There were 1 615 deaths of prostate cancer, and the crude mortality was 7.22/100 000, showing an upward trend (AAPC=5.451%, P<0.05). The standardized mortality was 3.49/105, and the trend showed no statistically significant (P>0.05). There were 28 cases of prostate cancer in individuals under 50 years old, accounting for 0.34%. The crude incidence and crude mortality of patients aged ≥50 years increased with age (both P<0.05). From 2016 to 2024, the crude incidence of prostate cancer in the 50-<60, 60-<70, 70-<80, and ≥80 age groups showed upward trends (AAPC=17.849%, 14.704%, 12.654% and 8.081%, all P<0.05), and the 50-<60 age group increased more quickly. There was no significant change in the crude mortality of prostate cancer among different age groups (all P>0.05). Conclusion From 2016 to 2024, the incidence of prostate cancer in Jinhua City showed an upward trend and had a trend of becoming younger, while the mortality remained relatively stable.

BackgroundChildhood represents a critical stage for cognitive development. Accurate assessment of children's cognitive abilities and understanding their developmental characteristics are essential for promoting healthy growth. However， traditional cognitive assessment methods typically rely on manual administration， presenting limitations such as low efficiency and insufficient engagement. These methods struggle to meet the assessment needs of children and are difficult to scale up for large-scale applications. ObjectiveTo develop a digital cognitive assessment tool for children， so as to provide a more convenient approach for evaluating children's cognitive functions. MethodsBased on classic psychological paradigms （Stroop Task， N-back， digit span， spatial orientation， and face-name matching）， a digital cognitive assessment tool was developed. This tool includes five tasks including color matching， shape matching， greening the home， great collector， and face-name matching， designed to assess core cognitive functions such as inhibitory control， working memory， short-term memory， spatial orientation， and semantic processing， respectively. From August 2024 to March 2025， a total of 750 students aged 9–12 yeas old from a primary school in Chengdu were enrolled and assessed using the digital cognitive assessment tool. Three months later， 40 children were randomly selected for retesting using both the digital tool and its corresponding standardized psychological paradigms. Pearson correlation analysis was conducted to examine the correlation between the pre-test and retest scores of the digital cognitive assessment tool， as well as the correlation between the digital cognitive task scores and the corresponding psychological paradigm assessment results， in order to evaluate the reliability and validity of the digital cognitive assessment tool. Additionally， differences in scores across the cognitive tasks were compared among children of different age groups and genders. ResultsA total of 699 valid samples were included. The younger age group consisted of children aged 9–10 years old （n=460）， while the older age group comprised those aged 11–12 years old （n=239）. There were 356 boys （50.93%） and 343 girls （49.07%）. In the reliability analysis， the Pearson correlation coefficients between the pre-test and retest scores of each assessment task ranged from 0.732 to 0.970 （P<0.01）， indicating statistically significant results. In the validity analysis， the Pearson correlation coefficients between each task and its corresponding standard cognitive test ranged from 0.679 to 0.988 （P<0.01）. In the color-matching task， both the main effects of age and gender were statistically significant （F=31.071， 21.198， P<0.01）. In the shape-matching task， the main effects of age， gender， and their interaction were all statistically significant （F=20.933， 5.926， 4.318， P<0.05 or 0.01）. In the greening the home task， the main effect of age was significant （F=5.243， P=0.023）. In the great collector task， the main effect of age was significant （F=33.697， P<0.01）. In the face-name matching task， only the main effect of gender was significant （F=27.016， P<0.01）. Further analysis showed that within the female group， older group scored significantly higher than younger group in five tasks（P<0.05 or 0.01）. Within the male group， younger group scored lower than older group in both the color-matching and great collector tasks （P<0.05 or 0.01）. Within the younger group， boys scored significantly higher than girls in color-matching and shape-matching tasks （P<0.01）. In the older group， girls scored significantly higher than boys in face-name matching task （P<0.01）. ConclusionThe digital cognitive assessment tool developed in this study demonstrates good reliability and validity. The development of cognitive functions in children aged 9–12 years old showed significant differences in age and gender， with specific developmental trajectories across different cognitive dimensions. At younger ages， boys outperformed girls in inhibitory control and working memory tasks， though this advantage diminished with age. At older ages， girls exhibited superior performance in semantic processing compared with boys.

Objective To analyze the composition characteristics and biological functions of tumor cell subpopulations in glioblastoma(GBM)through multi-transcriptomics sequencing technology,and explore the hypoxia characteristics and spatial localization features of the mesenchymal-like(MES-like)tumor cell subpopulation in GBM and the influence on malignant biological behaviors.Methods Multi-transcriptomics sequencing data,including single-cell RNA sequencing(scRNA-seq)data(18 patients),bulk RNA sequencing(bulk RNA-seq)and spatial transcriptomics(ST)data of GBM,were employed to define cell subpopulations in GBM,and Gene Ontology(GO)and Gene Set Enrichment Analysis(GSEA)were utilized to analyze their functions.The proportions and locations of cell subpopulations in bulk RNA-seq data were evaluated with BayesPrism deconvolution.Immunofluorescence assay was conducted for verification on 12 paraffin samples of GBM from patients who visited the neurosurgical department of our hospital from 2015 to 2023 and met the pathological diagnostic criteria for GBM(10 males and 2 females,at an average age of 53.50 years and a median age of 54.50 years).pySCENIC was applied to predict specific transcription factors of tumor cell subpopulations.Results Tumor cells in GBM were highly heterogeneous,and could be mainly divided into 4 subpopulations:astrocyte-like(AC-like),neural progenitor-like(NPC-like),oligodendrocyte progenitor-like(OPC-like)and MES-like.Differential gene analysis found that the MES-like tumor cells highly expressed vascular endothelial growth factor A(VEGFA),adrenomedullin(ADM),N-myc downstream regulated 1(NDRG1),insulin like growth factor binding protein 5(IGFBP5),and A-kinase anchoring protein 12(AKAP12)(P<0.001).pySCENIC transcription factor prediction found that the high-active transcription factors of the MES-like tumor cells were AT-rich interaction domain 3A(ARID3A),FOS like 2,AP-1 transcription factor subunit(FOSL2),endothelial PAS domain protein 1(EPAS1),CCAAT enhancer binding protein delta(CEBPD),and CCAAT enhancer binding protein beta(CEBPB)(P<0.05).GO and GSEA enrichment analyses found that the MES-like tumor cells were enriched in hypoxia-related pathways,especially the pathway of cell responses to hypoxia levels(NES=2.437,P<0.001).BayesPrism deconvolution showed that the MES-like tumor cells mainly existed in PAN(Pseudopalisading cells around necrosis)and perinecrotic zone.Immunofluorescence assay confirmed CD44+(CD44 antigen)MES-like tumor cells were mainly located in hypoxia areas with highly expression of hypoxia inducible factor 1 subunit alpha(HIF1α)(P<0.01).Multivariate Cox regression analysis indicated that the MES-like tumor cells were significantly correlated with the adverse prognosis of GBM patients(HR=1.71,95%CI:1.38～2.11,P<0.001).Conclusion Tumor cells in GBM are of highly heterogeneity.They could be mainly divided into 4 subpopulations:AC-like,NPC-like,OPC-like and MES-like.MES-like tumor cells,mainly locating in PAN and perinecrotic zone,are characterized by hypoxia,which can promote the malignant progression of GBM.

Objective To review the clinical characteristics of Slackia exigua infections for improving the diagnosis and treatment.Methods We reviewed the clinical characteristics of a case of pulmonary abscess caused by Slackia exigua.The infection cases caused by Slackia exigua were searched and retrieved from PubMed,CNKI,and Wanfang databases,for the articles published during the period from January 1,2011 to December 31,2023.Results Among the 15 cases of Slackia exigua infection,84.6％(11/13)had underlying diseases.Hypertension was the most common underlying disease,reported in 54.5％(6/11)of patients.Fever was present in 73.3％(11/15)of patients.Oral diseases and abscess caused by Slackia exigua were found in 63.6％(7/11)and 60.0％(9/15)of patients,respectively.Mixed infection was identified in 33.3％(5/15)of patients.The bacterium was susceptible to penicillin,ampicillin-sulbactam,ceftriaxone,levofloxacin and clindamycin,but mostly(2/3)resistant to metronidazole.Conclusions Slackia exigua infection often originates from oral aspiration and can cause abscess.Beta-lactam antibiotics are preferred for treatment of Slackia exigua infections.More data are required to confirm whether metronidazole is effective.

Objective To study carbapenem-resistant Enterobacterales(CRE)infection in the neurosurgical inten-sive care unit(NS-ICU)under the combination of active screening using anal swabs and bundled intervention mea-sures in environment with high prevalence of CRE infection,and provide scientific basis for healthcare-associated in-fection(HAI)prevention and control.Methods Inpatients in NS-ICU from 2020 to 2021 were selected as the con-trol group,and didn't undergo active anal swab screening.NS-ICU inpatients from 2022 to 2023 were taken as the trial group,and implemented intervention of active anal swab screening.Isolation measures for CRE positive cases in two groups were implemented,and the incidence of CRE HAI between two groups of patients were compared.Results 645 patients were actively screened for CRE,with a total of 912 screenings.The overall screening positive rate was 9.21％,and the rectal CRE colonization rate in NS-ICU patients was 13.02％(84/645),out of which Klebsiella pneumoniae accounted for 92.86％(n=78 strains).The positive screening rates in patients in the trial group within 48 hours after admission as well as on day 3-7,day 8-15,and 16-30 were 3.30％,4.94％,13.68％,and 18.85％,respectively.With prolonged hospitalization time,the positive rate of CRE anal swab screening gradually increased.During the study period,the overall CRE HAI rate was 6.24％(72/1 153).After implementing active screening intervention,the CRE HAI rate in the trial group was lower than that in the control group(3.57％[23/645]vs 9.65％[49/508],P＜0.001).Conclusion In hospital environment with high CRE prevalence,implementing active screening and bundled intervention measures can effectively identify CRE carriers and reduce the risk of infection caused by intestinal colonization.
