With the continuous development of society, a large number of new chemicals are continuously emerging, which presents a challenge to current risk assessment and safety management of chemicals. Traditional toxicology research methods have certain limitations in quickly, efficiently, and accurately assessing the toxicity of many chemicals, and cannot meet the actual needs. In response to this challenge, computational toxicology that use mathematical and computer models to achieve the prediction of chemical toxicity has emerged. In the meantime, as researchers increasingly pay attention to understanding the interaction mechanisms between exogenous chemical substances and the body from the system level, and multiomics technologies develop rapidly such as genomics, transcriptomics, proteomics, and metabolomics, huge amounts of data have been generated, providing rich information resources for studying the interactions between chemical substances and biological molecules. System toxicology and network toxicology have also developed accordingly. Of these, network toxicology can integrate these multiomics data to construct biomolecular networks, and then quickly predict the key toxicological targets and pathways of chemicals at the molecular level. This paper outlined the concept and development of network toxicology, summarized the main methods and supporting tools of network toxicology research, expounded the application status of network toxicology in studying potential toxicity of exogenous chemicals such as agricultural chemicals, environmental pollutants, industrial chemicals, and foodborne chemicals, and analyzed the development prospects and limitations of network toxicology research. This paper aimed to provide a reference for the application of network toxicology in other fields.

OBJECTIVE To systematically evaluate the methodological quality of the postoperative chemotherapy guidelines/ consensuses for ovarian epithelial tumor. METHODS A search was conducted across databases including PubMed， Embase， Web of Science， CBM， VIP， Chinese Medical Journal Data， Wanfang Data， and CNKI， as well as the official websites of GIN， NICE， Medlive， AHRQ， CSCO， ASCO， and NCCN. The search period was from the establishment of the databases/websites to March 10， 2025. The quality of the included guidelines/consensus was evaluated by using the AGREE-Ⅱ tool. RESULTS A total of 16 guidelines/consensuses were included. The domain scores of AGREE-Ⅱ evaluation were as follows： scope and purpose of 85.07%， participants of 47.92%， rigor of development of 57.49%， clarity of presentation of 88.02%， applicability of 8.20%， and independence of 53.39%. Among them， 14 were recommended at grade B and 2 were recommended at grade C. The subgroup analysis by different countries/regions and different types of studies showed that the scores for participants， rigor of development， and independence of the guidelines/consensuses in China were significantly lower than foreign countries （P＜0.05）； the scores for participants and rigor of development of the guidelines were significantly higher than consensuses （P＜0.05）. The guideline/ consensus recommendation results indicated that grade B guidelines/consensus recommend platinum-based combination chemotherapy as the preferred adjuvant chemotherapy regimen for stage Ⅰ high-grade serous carcinoma patients；platinum-based combination chemotherapy±bevacizumab was recommended as the preferred adjuvant chemotherapy regimen for stage Ⅱ-Ⅳ high- grade serous carcinoma patients and for platinum-sensitive recurrent high-grade serous carcinoma patients； non-platinum single- agent chemotherapy±bevacizumab was recommended as the preferred chemotherapy regimen for platinum-resistant recurrent high- grade serous carcinoma patients. CONCLUSIONS The overall quality of postoperative chemotherapy guidelines/consensuses for ovarian epithelial tumor is not high. The methodological quality of guidelines/consensuses in China is still lagging behind that of foreign countries. The recommendations differ from those in foreign countries. It is recommended to improve the aspects of participants， rigor of development， and independence， to recommend treatment plans based on the different stages of ovarian cancer， and develop guidelines/consensuses that align with China’s national conditions.

Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have been widely used in the treatment of various autoimmune and inflammation-related diseases due to their potent immunomodulatory properties. Several studies have demonstrated that MSC-mediated immunomodulation is complex and bidirectional, with the in vivo microenvironment influencing the direction of this modulation. Indoleamine-2,3-dioxygenase (IDO), an immunosuppressive factor, has been identified as a key "switch" in the immunomodulatory role of MSCs. In this review, we explore how IDO functions as a critical regulator of MSC immunoregulatory plasticity. We delve into the mechanisms by which changes in IDO expression affect the function of various immune cells, summarize relevant research and clinical advances regarding the role of IDO expression in MSC-based therapies for various diseases, and discuss potential therapeutic strategies that target IDO to enhance the stability of MSC therapeutic effects. This provides a theoretical foundation for optimizing MSCs as safer and more effective clinical therapeutic agents.

Objective:To evaluate the diagnostic efficacy and practicality of the Jaundice color card (JCard) as a screening tool for neonatal jaundice.Methods:Following the standards for reporting of diagnostic accuracy studies (STARD) statement, a multicenter prospective study was conducted in 9 hospitals in China from October 2019 to September 2021. A total of 845 newborns who were admitted to the hospital or outpatient department for liver function testing due to their own diseases. The inclusion criteria were a gestational age of ≥35 weeks, a birth weight of ≥2 000 g, and an age of ≤28 days. The neonate′s parents used the JCard to measure jaundice at the neonate′s cheek. Within 2 hours of the JCard measurement, transcutaneous bilirubin (TcB) was measured with a JH20-1B device and total serum bilirubin (TSB) was detected. The Pearson′s correlation analysis, Bland-Altman plots and the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve were used for statistic analysis.Results:Out of the 854 newborns, 445 were male and 409 were female; 46 were born at 35-36 weeks of gestational age and 808 were born at ≥37 weeks of gestational age. Additionally, 432 cases were aged 0-3 days, 236 cases were aged 4-7 days, and 186 cases were aged 8-28 days. The TSB level was (227.4±89.6) μmol/L, with a range of 23.7-717.0 μmol/L. The JCard level was (221.4±77.0) μmol/L and the TcB level was (252.5±76.0) μmol/L. Both the JCard and TcB values showed good correlation ( r=0.77 and 0.80, respectively) and agreements (96.0% (820/854) and 95.2% (813/854) of samples fell within the 95% limits of agreement, respectively) with TSB. The JCard value of 12 had a sensitivity of 0.93 and specificity of 0.75 for identifying a TSB ≥205.2?μmol/L, and a sensitivity of 1.00 and specificity of 0.35 for identifying a TSB ≥342.0?μmol/L. The TcB value of 205.2?μmol/L had a sensitivity of 0.97 and specificity of 0.60 for identifying TSB levels of 205.2 μmol/L, and a sensitivity of 1.00 and specificity of 0.26 for identifying TSB levels of 342.0 μmol/L. The areas under the ROC curve (AUC) of JCard for identifying TSB levels of 153.9, 205.2, 256.5, and 342.0 μmol/L were 0.96, 0.92, 0.83, and 0.83, respectively. The AUC of TcB were 0.94, 0.91, 0.86, and 0.87, respectively. There were both no significant differences between the AUC of JCard and TcB in identifying TSB levels of 153.9 and 205.2 μmol/L (both P>0.05). However, the AUC of JCard were both lower than those of TcB in identifying TSB levels of 256.5 and 342.0 μmol/L (both P<0.05). Conclusions:JCard can be used to classify different levels of bilirubin, but its diagnostic efficacy decreases with increasing bilirubin levels. When TSB level are ≤205.2 μmol/L, its diagnostic efficacy is equivalent to that of the JH20-1B. To prevent the misdiagnosis of severe jaundice, it is recommended that parents use a low JCard score, such as 12, to identify severe hyperbilirubinemia (TSB ≥342.0 μmol/L).

Among them， 8 prototype components and 4 metabolites were identified in serum samples； 10 prototype components and 7 metabolites were identified in urine samples； 8 prototype components and 5 metabolites were identified in the fecal samples. CONCLUSIONS The metabolites of Zhideke granules in rats mainly include baicalin， irisflorentin，chlorogenic acid， and the main metabolic pathways included methylation， hydroxylation， glucuronidation.

Objective To analyze the clinical characteristics and the antimicrobial resistance of respiratory tract infection in children in Baoshan City,guide clinicians to rationally apply antibiotics,and improve the success rate of treatment.Methods Retrospective analysis of the distribution characteristics and drug sensitivity results of 1039 strains of pathogens detected in pediatric inpatients of hospitals from 2019 to 2022 was conducted.Results The main pathogens causing the respiratory infections in children in Baoshan area were Streptococcus pneumoniae,Escherichia coli,Staphylococcus aureus,Haemophilus influenzae,Klebsiella pneumoniae and Pseudomonas aeruginosa.Analysis of the drug sensitivity results of pathogenic bacteria with a detected quantity greater than 80 revealed that Streptococcus pneumoniae had a high resistance rate to erythromycin,clindamycin,and compound sulfamethoxazole.The resistance rates of penicillin,ceftriaxone,cefotaxime,and meropenem were P<0.05,and the difference was statistically significan.Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus(MRSA)was11.1%;CTX/CRO-R-ECO,CTX/CRO-R-KPN,CR-ECO and CR-KPN were lower than the 2021 ISPED level;The P.aeruginosa drug resistance rate and H.influenzae's ampicillin and ampicillin/sulbactam were higher than the 2021 ISPED level.Conclusion The treatment of respiratory tract infections in pediatric patients faces great challenges.The non-standard use of empirical medication has led to the emergence of multidrug-resistant bacteria,and the selection of anti infection treatment drugs is limited.Therefore,it is imperative to grasp the epidemic characteristics and drug resistance of pathogenic bacteria in the local area.

OBJECTIVE To evaluate the efficacy， safety and cost-effectiveness of generic drugs and original drugs of voriconazole. METHODS The information of patients who used voriconazole generic drugs selected in National Centralized Drug Procurement （generic drug group） or non-selected original drugs （original drug group） in the treatment of fungal infection was collected from the our hospital. The propensity score matching was carried out to eliminate bias. The comprehensive efficacy was evaluated according to clinical efficacy， image findings and microbiological test， and stratified analysis of different populations was conducted based on fungal species， underlying diseases， etc.， the efficacy of different stratifications was evaluated. Evaluation of safety was performed by using the incidence of adverse reactions. The total cost， defined daily doses （DDDs） and defined daily dose cost （DDDc） were used to evaluate the cost-effectiveness. RESULTS A total of 436 patients were included， and there were 190 patients in each group after matching. In terms of efficacy， the effective rates of voriconazole generic drugs and original drugs were 62.63% and 59.47% （P＝0.528）； in terms of safety， the incidence of adverse reactions caused by generic drugs and original drugs of voriconazole was 13.68% and 7.89%， respectively（P＝0.069）. In terms of cost-effectiveness， the average total cost of generic drugs was 4 636.26 yuan， and that of original drugs was 8 613.20 yuan （P＜0.001）. After the implementation of National Centralized Drug Procurement， replacement rate of generic drugs increased to 87.30%， and DDDc decreased by 59.08%. CONCLUSIONS The efficacy and safety of voriconazole generic drugs are similar to those of original drugs in the treatment of fungal infection， and it is more cost-effective in terms of treatment cost.

Objective:To report the long-term outcomes of Chinese rectal cancer patients after adopting a Watch and Wait (W&W) strategy following neoadjuvant therapy (NAT).Methods:This multicenter, cross-sectional study was based on real-world data. The study cohort comprised rectal cancer patients who had achieved complete or near complete clinical responses (cCRs, near-cCRs) after NAT and were thereafter managed by a W&W approach, as well as a few patients who had achieved good responses after NAT and had then undergone local excision for confirmation of pathological complete response. All participants had been followed up for ≥2 years. Patients with distant metastases at baseline or who opted for observation while living with the tumor were excluded. Data of eligible patients were retrospectively collected from the Chinese Wait-and-Watch Data Collaboration Group database. These included baseline characteristics, type of NAT, pre-treatment imaging results, evaluation of post-NAT efficacy, salvage measures, and treatment outcomes. We herein report the long-term outcomes of Chinese rectal cancer patients after NAT and W&W and the differences between the cCR and near-cCR groups.Results:Clinical data of 318 rectal cancer patients who had undergone W&W for over 2 years and been followed up were collected from eight medical centers (Peking University Cancer Hospital, Fudan University Shanghai Cancer Center, Sun Yat-sen University Cancer Center, Shanghai Changhai Hospital, Peking Union Medical College Hospital, Liaoning Cancer Hospital, the First Hospital of Jilin University, and Yunnan Cancer Hospital.) The participants comprised 221 men (69.4%) and 107 women (30.6%) of median age 60 (26-86) years. The median distance between tumor and anal verge was 3.4 (0-10.4) cm. Of these patients, 291 and 27 had achieved cCR or near-cCR, respectively, after NAT. The median duration of follow-up was 48.4 (10.2-110.3) months. The 5-year cumulative overall survival rate was 92.4% (95%CI: 86.8%-95.7%), 5-year cumulative disease-specific survival (CSS) rate 96.6% (95%CI: 92.2%-98.5%), 5-year cumulative organ-preserving disease-free survival rate 86.6% (95%CI: 81.0%-90.7%), and 5-year organ preservation rate 85.3% (95%CI: 80.3%-89.1%). The overall 5-year local recurrence and distant metastasis rates were 18.5% (95%CI: 14.9%-20.8%) and 8.2% (95%CI: 5.4%-12.5%), respectively. Most local recurrences (82.1%, 46/56) occurred within 2 years, and 91.0% (51/56) occurred within 3 years, the median time to recurrence being 11.7 (2.5-66.6) months. Most (91.1%, 51/56) local recurrences occurred within the intestinal lumen. Distant metastases developed in 23 patients; 60.9% (14/23) occurred within 2 years and 73.9% (17/23) within 3 years, the median time to distant metastasis being 21.9 (2.6-90.3) months. Common sites included lung (15/23, 65.2%), liver (6/23, 26.1%), and bone (7/23, 30.4%) The metastases involved single organs in 17 patients and multiple organs in six. There were no significant differences in overall, cumulative disease-specific, or organ-preserving disease-free survival or rate of metastases between the two groups (all P>0.05). The 5-year local recurrence rate was higher in the near-cCR than in the cCR group (41.6% vs. 16.4%, P<0.01), with a lower organ preservation rate (69.2% vs. 88.0%, P<0.001). The success rates of salvage after local recurrence and distant metastasis were 82.1% (46/56) and 13.0% (3/23), respectively. Conclusion:Rectal cancer patients who achieve cCR or near-cCR after NAT and undergo W&W have favorable oncological outcomes and a high rate of organ preservation. Local recurrence and distant metastasis during W&W follow certain patterns, with a relatively high salvage rate for local recurrence. Our findings highlight the importance of close follow-up and timely intervention during the W&W process.

Objective:To explore the role of prognostic nutritional index (PNI) and pleural thickness in the prognostic evaluation of patients with epithelial malignant pleural mesothelioma (MPM) .Methods:In April 2022, a retrospective analysis was conducted on the data and laboratory data of 41 patients with epithelial MPM admitted to the cardiothoracic surgery department of Chuxiong Yi Autonomous Prefecture People's Hospital from January 2018 to May 2021. Univariate and multivariate analysis were used to evaluate the relationships between total survival time, clinical characteristics, PNI and pleural thickness in patients.Results:The 41 patients were mostly male (26 cases, 63.4%) , with a median age of 55 years old. The main clinical manifestations were chest pain (53.7%) , bloody pleural effusion (75.6%) , and chest pain combined with bloody pleural effusion (36.6%) . The median survival time of patients with different TNM stage, efficacy after 4 cycles of chemotherapy, PNI, maximum pleural thickness after chemotherapy (post max) , sum of post max in 3 zones after chemotherapy (post sum) were statistically different (χ 2=3.89, 14.51, 15.33, 4.33, 12.05, P<0.05) . Compared with patients with high PNI and post sum<32.26 mm, MPM patients with low PNI and post sum≥32.26 mm have higher risk of death, and the differences were statistically significant ( HR=1.52, 95% CI: 1.75-11.93, P=0.002; HR=1.70, 95% CI: 1.84-16.23, P=0.002) . Conclusion:PNI and post sum can be used to predict the prognosis of patients with epithelial MPM.
