Breast cancer is a malignant tumor that occurs in the glandular epithelium of the breast, and it is one of the most common tumors that seriously affect the physical and mental health of women. With the aggravation of population aging, the incidence of breast cancer in the elderly has increased year by year in recent years. Elderly patients with breast cancer often have a variety of underlying diseases, and their prognosis is usually related to many factors such as cancer staging, cancer classification, treatment status and health status, with a significant difference in survival rate among patients. Due to the unique clinical and pathological characteristics of elderly patients with breast cancer compared to young and middle-aged patients, there are many studies on the treatment of elderly breast cancer patients in the past, and there are few reviews on the influencing factors of prognosis in elderly patients. This paper reviews the research progress of influencing factors of prognosis in elderly patients with breast cancer from the aspects of clinicopathological factors, treatment options and prognosis factors, in order to provide a reference for clinical determination of treatment options for elderly patients with breast cancer in the future.

To explore the advantages of traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） and integrative TCM-Western medicine approaches in the treatment of diabetic microvascular complications （DMC）， refine key pathophysiological insights and treatment principles， and promote academic innovation and strategic research planning in the prevention and treatment of DMC. The 38th session of the Expert Salon on Diseases Responding Specifically to Traditional Chinese Medicine， hosted by the China Association of Chinese Medicine， was held in Beijing， 2024. Experts in TCM， Western medicine， and interdisciplinary fields convened to conduct a systematic discussion on the pathogenesis， diagnostic and treatment challenges， and mechanism research related to DMC， ultimately forming a consensus on key directions. Four major research recommendations were proposed. The first is addressing clinical bottlenecks in the prevention and control of DMC by optimizing TCM-based evidence evaluation systems. The second is refining TCM core pathogenesis across DMC stages and establishing corresponding "disease-pattern-time" framework. The third is innovating mechanism research strategies to facilitate a shift from holistic regulation to targeted intervention in TCM. The fourth is advancing interdisciplinary collaboration to enhance the role of TCM in new drug development， research prioritization， and guideline formulation. TCM and integrative approaches offer distinct advantages in managing DMC. With a focus on the diseases responding specifically to TCM， strengthening evidence-based support and mechanism interpretation and promoting the integration of clinical care and research innovation will provide strong momentum for the modernization of TCM and the advancement of national health strategies.

Objective To explore the influence of the medical and health management model based on artificial intelligence (AI) on type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) combined with masked hypertension (MH). Methods A total of 342 patients with T2DM admitted to the hospital from May 2021 to August 2024 were selected as research subjects, and the incidence rate of MH was counted. All patients were classified into the reference group (routine management) and the study group (AI+medical health management) according to the random number table method, with 171 cases in each group. The self-management, glycolipid metabolism and ambulatory blood pressure were compared between both groups before and after intervention. Results Among the 342 patients with T2DM, MH occurred in 34 cases, with an incidence rate of 9.94% (34/342). The self-management ability in the two groups was improved after 6 months and 12 months of intervention, and the self-management ability was higher in the study group (P<0.05). After 6 months and 12 months of intervention, the glucolipid metabolism indexes in both groups were optimized, and the improvements in the study group were greater (P<0.05). The daytime average systolic blood pressure and diastolic blood pressure, 24 h average systolic blood pressure and diastolic blood pressure were decreased in both groups after 6 months and 12 months of intervention, and the study group showed lower indexes (P<0.05). Conclusion T2DM are prone to MH. AI medical and health chronic disease management can enhance patients' self-management ability, help improve glucose and lipid metabolism, lower blood pressure, and help reduce the risk of MH.

OBJECTIVE To explore the antidepressant mechanism of Wenyang jieyu granules （WYJYG） via the NOD-like receptor thermal protein domain associated protein 3 （NLRP3）/apoptosis-associated speck-like protein containing a CARD （ASC）/Caspase-1 pathway. METHODS A rat model of depression was established by chronic unpredictable mild stress combined with single-housing for 42 consecutive days.The experiment set up blank group， model group， MCC950 （NLRP3 inflammasome inhibitor） group （10 mg/kg）， fluoxetine group （positive control，2.08 mg/kg），low-dose WYJYG（3.78 g/kg） and high-dose WYJYG group （7.56 g/kg），with 10 rats in each group. From the 22nd day of the experiment， rats in the fluoxetine group， low-dose and high-dose WYJYG groups were intragastrically administered with the corresponding drugs and intraperitoneally injected with an equal volume of normal saline. Rats in the MCC950 group were intraperitoneally injected with MCC950 at the corresponding concentration and intragastrically administered with an equal volume of distilled water. Rats in the blank group and model group were given an equal volume of distilled water by gavage and an equal volume of normal saline by intraperitoneal injection. All interventions were performed once a day for 21 consecutive days. Behavioral tests were conducted once a week. After the last administration， the contents of ASC， ionized calcium binding adaptor molecule 1 （Iba1）， interleukin-1β （IL-1β）， and IL-18 in hippocampal tissues were detected. The protein expressions of NLRP3， cluster of differentiation 68 （CD68）， Caspase-1， B-cell lymphoma-2 （Bcl-2）， and Bcl-2-associated X protein were determined， and neuronal apoptosis was observed. RESULTS After the last administration， compared with the model group， the open-field activity time was significantly prolonged （ P ＜0.05）， and the latency to feed in a novel environment was significantly shortened （ P ＜0.05） in rats of the high-dose WYJYG group. In hippocampal tissue， the contents of ASC， Iba1， IL-1β， and IL-18， as well as the protein expression levels of NLRP3， Caspase-1， and CD68， and the positive rate of neuronal apoptosis were all significantly decreased/downregulated （ P ＜0.05）. Bcl-2 protein expression was significantly upregulated （ P ＜0.05）， and the density of neuronal apoptosis-positive cells was significantly reduced （ P ＜0.05）. CONCLUSIONS WYJYG play on antidepressant role by inhibiting the NLRP3/ASC/Caspase-1 pathway， reducing microglia-mediated neuroinflammation， and inhibiting hippocampal neurons apoptosis.

Objective To explore risk factors for cardiac valve calcification (CVC) in maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) patients and evaluate its impact on cardiovascular events and mortality. Methods Retrospective selection of 223 patients with MHD admitted to the Department of Nephrology of Jinshan Hospital, Fudan University from June 30, 2019 to June 30, 2024, and enrollment completed within one week of June 30, 2019. Patients were divided into CVC and non-CVC groups. Baseline data and 5-year follow-up data were collected. The binary logistic regression analysis was performed to explore the risk factors for CVC. Kaplan-Meier survival curve was used to analyze the survival rate of patients. Cox proportional hazard regression model was applied to evaluate the impact of CVC on the survival rates of MHD patients. Results Totally, 223 MHD patients with an average age of (58.4±13.5) years and an average dialysis duration of (64.0±55.4) months were involved. Among them, 136(61.0%) were males, 117(52.5%) were complicated with CVC. Age, dialysis duration, diabetic kidney disease (DKD), the serum corrected total calcium and phosphate, intact parathyroid hormone (iPTH), high-sensitive C-reactive protein (hsCRP), and homocysteine (Hcy) were independent related factors for CVC (P＜0.05). Both all-cause mortality (46.6% vs 28.7%) and cardiovascular mortality (33.3% vs 16.0%) were significantly higher in the CVC group than those in the non-CVC group (P＜0.01). Conclusions Age, dialysis duration, the primary disease, calcium and phosphate, and inflammation- and nutrition-related serum indicators are associated with CVC in MHD patients. CVC significantly increases mortality risk of MHD patients.

Objective To investigate the relationship between the mean platelet volume(MPV)to platelet count(PLT)ratio(MPV/PLT),blood urea nitrogen(BUN)to lipoprotein a[Lp(a)]ratio[BUN/Lp(a)]and the prognosis of patients with acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease(COPD).Methods A total of 106 patients with acute exacerbation of COPD admitted to the hospital from January 2021 to January 2024 were selected as the research objects.According to the prognosis,they were divided into sur-vival group(72 cases)and death group(34 cases).The results of routine laboratory tests,blood lipid and lipo-protein levels were compared between the two groups.Multivariate Logistic regression was used to analyze the influencing factors of death in patients with acute exacerbation of COPD.The receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve was used to evaluate the predictive value of MPV/PLT and BUN/Lp(a)for the prognosis of pa-tients with acute exacerbation of COPD.Results Compared with the survival group,the invasive ventilation rate,acute physiology and chronic health evaluation Ⅱ(APACHE Ⅱ)score,C reactive protein(CRP),white blood cell count(WBC),MPV,BUN,MPV/PLT and BUN/Lp(a)were significantly increased in the death group(P＜0.05).The non-invasive ventilation rate,lymphocyte count,PLT and Lp(a)levels were signifi-cantly decreased(P＜0.05).Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that APACHE Ⅱ score,CRP,WBC,lymphocyte count,MPV,PLT,MPV/PLT,BUN,Lp(a)and BUN/Lp(a)were the influencing factors of death in patients with acute exacerbation of COPD(P＜0.05).ROC curve results showed that the sensitivity and specificity of MPV/PLT combined with BUN/Lp(a)for predicting the prognosis of patients with acute exacerbation of COPD were 88.2％and 84.7％,respectively,and the area under curve was 0.887.Conclusion MPV/PLT and BUN/Lp(a)are closely related to the prognosis of patients with acute exacerbation of COPD.The combination of MPV/PLT and BUN/Lp(a)has a high predictive value for the prognosis of patients.

Objective:To analyze the relationship between folate and thyroid antibody in early pregnancy and adverse pregnancy outcome in pregnant women with hypothyroidism during pregnancy.Methods:The data of 97 pregnant women with hypothyroidism from Jul. 2020 to Mar. 2023 in the Obstetrics Department of Liaocheng Second People’s Hospital were retrospectively analyzed. The levels of folate, thyroglobulin antibody (TGAb) and thyroid peroxidase antibody (TPOAb) were detected in the first trimester. According to whether adverse pregnancy outcome occurred in pregnant women with hypothyroidism during pregnancy, they were divided into occurrence group and non-occurrence group. The clinical data of the occurrence group and the non-occurrence group were compared. Logistic regression was used to analyze the influencing factors of adverse pregnancy outcomes in pregnant women with hypothyroidism during pregnancy, and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was drawn to analyze the predictive value of folic acid, TGAb, TPOAb and their combination on adverse pregnancy outcomes in pregnant women with hypothyroidism during pregnancy.Results:Among 97 pregnant women, the incidence of adverse pregnancy outcome was 14.43% (14/97) .The folate level in the occurrence group was lower than non-occurrence group ( P<0.05) , and the TGAb and TPOAb levels in the occurrence group were higher than non-occurrence group ( P<0.05) . The occurrence group with alanine aminotransferase (ALT) , glutamine transpeptidase (GGT) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) were all higher than non-occurrence group ( P<0.05) .The folate, TGAb, and TPOAb levels were factors influencing adverse pregnancy outcomes in pregnant women with hypothyroidism ( P<0.05) . The area under the curve (AUC) values of folate, TGAb, TPOAb and their combined prediction of adverse pregnancy outcomes in pregnant women with hypothyroidism during pregnancy were 0.804, 0.843, 0.799, 0.909 ( P<0.05) , while the combined three with AUC values were higher ( P<0.05) . Conclusion:The folate, TGAb and TPOAb levels in early pregnancy can be used to evaluate adverse pregnancy outcomes in hypothyroidism pregnant women, and the combination of the three has a higher evaluation value.

Objective:To develop the Adolescent Mental Health Computerized Adaptive Test(AMH-CAT)for assessing psychological crises in adolescents using item response theory(IRT).Methods:A total of 8 679 students,aged 9 to 19 years,were sampled from 14 primary and secondary schools.The item bank was constructed by examining unidimensionality,independence,discrimination,and Differential Item Functioning(DIF).The AMH-CAT algorithm was developed using R software and validated for reliability and validity through real and simulated data.The School Psychological Interview Evaluation Form served as the criterion tool to assess the predictive validi-ty of AMH-CAT in evaluating psychological crises levels.Results:The item bank,consisting of 43 items,demon-strated unidimensionality and independence,with discrimination values＞0.80 and no DIF across genders.Under va-rious stopping rules,AMH-CAT showed ABS values＜0.40,RMSE values＜0.50,and a correlation(r)＞0.87(P＜0.001)between estimated and true psychological crises levels.Real participants answered an average of 10 items under the SE(θ)≤0.4 stopping rule,with a reliability of 0.89,and the scores were positively correlated with the complete item bank scores(r=0.95,P＜0.001).The predictive accuracy for Level 1 and Level 2 concerns was 0.89 and 0.90,respectively.Conclusion:The Adolescent Mental Health Computerized Adaptive Test(AMH-CAT)demonstrates excellent validity,reliability and assessment efficiency for evaluating adolescent psychological crises.

Objective To explore the characteristics of incorrect opinions in re-examination cases,analyze the reasons,characteristics,and commonalities of different forensic opinions in the same injury case during re-examination,and provide references for similar case acceptance,forensic procedures,analysis and argumentation,and the application of relevant provisions.Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on the re-examination cases of human injury degree accepted by the Forensic Judicial Appraisal Center of Guizhou Medical University and West China Forensic Medical Appraisal Center of Sichuan University from January 2020 to December 2024.Results Among the 81 collected re-examination cases of human injury degree,the injury types mainly included fractures,soft tissue injuries,tendon injuries,craniocerebral injuries,nerve injuries,joint injuries,and organ injuries.Of these,74 cases were entrusted by the public security system,and 72 cases used primary injuries as the basis for assessment.Seven cases had more than 3 appraisals and 74 cases had two appraisals,of which 53 cases had inconsistent opinions between the previous and current appraisals,including 29 cases with an upgraded injury grade and 24 cases with a downgraded injury grade.Conclusion When accepting re-examination cases,forensic experts need to choose relevant objective examination techniques in forensic clinical medicine,such as clinical imaging techniques,to determine whether imaging data serves as key evidence in the case,and seek assistance from experts in related fields when necessary.In the case acceptance stage,it is necessary to collect and review key assessment materials such as medical records,the first assessment opinion,and interrogation records.Forensic experts should also enhance their understanding of legal provisions,timing of assessment,their image-reading ability,and work to standardize the forensic assessment process.

Intervention in chronically activated microglia-mediated neuroinflammation is a novel approach to treat Alzheimer's disease (AD). The low permeability of the blood‒brain barrier (BBB) and non-selective distribution in the brain severely restrict AD drugs' disease-modifying efficacy. Here, an immunosuppressant TREM2-lowing antisense oligonucleotides (ASOs) and resveratrol co-loaded cationic liposome is developed as an immune reprogramming nanomodulator modified by acid-cleavable BBB-targeting peptide and microglia-targeting peptide (Res@TcMNP/ASO) for AD management. Res@TcMNP/ASO can enter brain endothelial cells via D-T7 peptides. Then D-T7 undergoes an acid-responsive cleavage, facilitating the escape of Res@MNP/ASO from endo/lysosomes to cross the BBB. The detached Res@MNP/ASO specifically targets M1-phenotype microglia via exposed MG1 peptides to prompt the simultaneous delivery of two drugs into activated microglia. This nanomodulator can not only restore the immune function of microglia through TREM2-lowing ASO but also mitigate the immune stimulation to microglia caused by reactive oxygen species (ROS) through resveratrol, thereby synergistically inhibiting the chronic activation of microglia to alleviate neuroinflammation in AD. Our results indicate that this combination treatment can achieve significant behavioral and cognitive improvements in late APP/PS1 mice.
