Intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma(ICC)is a malignant tumor originating from the epithelial cells of the intrahepatic bile ducts,with adenocarcinoma being its predominant pathological type.Due to its insidious onset and the difficulty of early diagnosis,ICC has a high mortality rate.Currently,complete resection of the tumor through surgery remains the only potential curative treatment for ICC,but only a small proportion of patients are eligible for surgery.In this context,a multidisciplinary comprehensive treatment model,centered around surgery and combined with systemic chemotherapy,targeted therapy,immunotherapy,supplemented by local interventional therapies and radiotherapy,has emerged as an effective strategy for improving the prognosis of ICC patients.This paper systematically reviews the latest research advances in chemotherapy,targeted therapy,immunotherapy,and local treatment for ICC,and summarizes the current clinical treatment strategies,aiming to provide a robust reference for the precise treatment of patients with advanced ICC.

BACKGROUND:H uman pluripotent stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes offer an ideal cellular resource for studying heart diseases,conducting drug screening,developing in vitro heart models,and exploring potential cell therapies.However,human pluripotent stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes are characterized by immaturity with limited specific gene expression,low Ca2+processing levels,and underdeveloped structural,metabolic,and electrophysiological features.These limitations significantly impede the application of human pluripotent stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes.OBJECTIVE:To review the academic progress and clinical application of promoting the maturation of human pluripotent stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes by in vitro synthetic microenvironment.METHODS:CNKI,WanFang,VIP,PubMed,Web of Science,and Medline databases were searched,with"human pluripotent stem cells,human myocardial cells,hPSC-CMs,mature,OA,human pluripotent stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes,hPSC-CMs"as English search terms and"human pluripotent stem cells,cardiomyocytes,mature,OA,hPSC-CMs"as Chinese search terms.All relevant literature published from January 2002 to July 2024 was retrieved and 82 articles were included in the review.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)In recent years,in vitro synthetic microenvironments have attracted extensive attention due to their excellent intrinsic properties such as stiffness,plasticity,nanoscale morphology,and chemical functionality.(2)Human pluripotent stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes can be used as an effective platform for the treatment of cardiovascular diseases.(3)Mechanical stimulation,electrical stimulation,addition of biochemical molecules,and three-dimensional culture methods are effective methods to promote the maturation of human pluripotent stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes,which can further promote the clinical application of human pluripotent stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes.

Objective·To explore the mechanism at the atomic level by which the KRASG12D/R68G mutation induces tumor cell resistance to MRTX1133.Methods·The crystal structure data of the KRASG12D-MRTX1133 complex were obtained from the RCSB Protein Data Bank(PDB).PyMOL software was used to mutate arginine at position 68 of KRAS to glycine(R68G),constructing the initial conformations of the KRASG12D-MRTX1133 and KRASG12D/R68G-MRTX1133 complexes.The LEaP module was used to build simulation systems under periodic boundary conditions.The ff19SB force field was applied to standard amino acids in KRAS,GAFF(general AMBER force field)to MRTX1133,and TIP3P(intermolecular potential three point)to water molecules.Energy minimization was performed using the Amber software suite.The systems were then heated to 300 K,followed by NVT(constant volume and temperature)equilibration and NPT(constant pressure and temperature)production.Root mean square deviation(RMSD),root mean square fluctuation(RMSF),principal component analysis(PCA)and solvent-accessible surface area(SASA)of MRTX1133 and GDP were analyzed using cpptraj.The number of hydrogen bonds between regions and the dynamic cross-correlation matrix(DCCM)of amino acid movements were also calculated.Results·RMSD analysis showed greater structural variation in KRAS in the KRASG12D/R68G system compared to the KRASG12D system.RMSF analysis revealed significantly higher fluctuations in the Switch Ⅰ and Switch Ⅱ regions of the KRASG12D/R68G system.PCA indicated that Switch Ⅰ and Switch Ⅱ in the KRASG12D/R68G system were more frequently in an open conformation.The distances between Switch Ⅰ and the P-loop,and between Switch Ⅱ and the P-loop,were larger in the KRASG12D/R68G system,indicating an expanded binding pocket for GDP and MRTX1133 compared to the KRASG12D system.SASA analysis indicated that both GDP and MRTX1133 had increased solvent exposure in the KRASG12D/R68G system.DCCM analysis revealed more decoupled movements among the Switch Ⅰ,Switch Ⅱ and P-loop regions in the KRASG12D/R68G system.Conclusion·The KRASG12D/R68G mutation disrupts the interactions between the Switch Ⅰ and Switch Ⅱregions,leading to their separation and the opening of the MRTX1133 binding pocket.This increases the solvent exposure of MRTX1133,accelerates its dissociation,and ultimately results in KRASG12D/R68G resistance to MRTX1133.

Objective:To evaluate the nutritional status of children with aplastic anemia（AA）using the children's nutritional risk index（CNRI），prognostic nutritional index（PNI），controlling nutritional status（CONUT），instant nutritional assessment（INA），and combined index（CI），in order to provide scientific evidence to support clinical diagnosis and treatment.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of pediatric AA patients treated in the Department of Pediatrics，Ward 1，First Affiliated Hospital of Xinjiang Medical University from January 1st，2019 to April 30st，2024.Nutritional status was assessed using CNRI，PNI，CONUT，and INA，and integrated into CI.The agreement between different nutritional screening tools was evaluated using Kappa statistics. Results:A total of 68 pediatric AA patients were included，with an overall malnutrition prevalence of 44.1%.The malnutrition rates were 39.4% in the body mass index（BMI）normal group and 48.6% in the BMI abnormal group.Across disease severity groups，malnutrition was observed in 66.67% of very severe AA（VSAA）patients，54.17% of severe AA（SAA）patients，and 28.13% of non-severe AA（NSAA）patients，and the difference was statistically significant（ χ2=6.778， P=0.034）. Kappa analysis demonstrated the highest concordance between CONUT，INA，and CI，with Kappa values of 0.882（ P<0.001）. Conclusion:Pediatric AA patients have a high prevalence of malnutrition，and their nutritional status decline significantly with increasing disease severity.CONUT and INA are effective tools for assessing nutritional status in children with AA，providing reliable evidence for clinical evaluation.

Objective:To analyze the effects of the disease and injury spectrum on health-adjusted life expectancy (HALE) among permanent residents aged 55 and above in Shenzhen from 2016 to 2030.Methods:Based on the mortality surveillance data and the permanent resident population data in Shenzhen from 2016 to 2022, the Sullivan method was used to calculate the HALE during 2016—2022. The Bayesian age-period-cohort model and the grey system model were used to predict the HALE during 2023—2030. The HALE changes in the two periods were decomposed into the contributions of 20 categories of diseases and injuries, respectively.Results:From 2016 to 2022, the HALE increased from 31.41 years (95% CI: 30.50-32.32) to 33.57 years (95% CI: 32.47-34.67). During this period, the mortality effect of neurological disorders slowed the increase of HALE, with a reduction of 0.27 years. By 2030, it is anticipated that the HALE will reach 36.40 years (95% CI: 34.78-38.01). This is expected to be influenced by the mortality effects of nutritional deficiencies (-0.40 years) and mental disorders (-0.29 years), as well as the disability effects of musculoskeletal disorders (-0.66 years), skin and subcutaneous diseases (-0.21 years) and nutritional deficiencies (-0.13 years). Conclusion:The HALE of permanent residents aged 55 years and above in Shenzhen demonstrated an increasing trend over time. Greater attention should be paid to the adverse effects of neurological disorders, nutritional deficiencies, mental disorders, musculoskeletal disorders, and skin and subcutaneous diseases on the continuous increase of HALE in this population.
