It is very limited that the benefit of perioperative chemotherapy in early non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), and the 5-year survival rate is only 5% higher than surgery. Antibodies that block programmed cell death protein 1/programmed death-ligand 1 significantly improve the survival of advanced NSCLC. The value of immunotherapy in early NSCLC is also being explored. This paper firstly summarized and analyzed the progress of immunotherapy in the perioperative period of NSCLC. Secondly, the safety and feasibility of surgical resection after neoadjuvant immunotherapy were discussed. Finally, the clinical value of different therapeutic efficacy prediction indicators was summarized, in order to clarify the current status of immunotherapy in the perioperative period, so as to improve the clinical benefits of early NSCLC patients.

OBJECTIVE To analyze the influential factors for clinical efficacy of polymyxin B combined with other antibiotics in the treatment of carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii (CRAB) pulmonary infection. METHODS A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of patients with CRAB pulmonary infection in our hospital from May 2021 to October 2024. Information such as age, gender, admitting department, infection status, underlying medical conditions, mechanical ventilation time, combination anti-infective treatment regimens, and the Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation Ⅱ (APACHE-Ⅱ) score 24 h before medication was compiled. Based on the effectiveness of the treatment, patients were divided into treatment-effective group and treatment-ineffective group. Univariate analysis and multivariate Logistic regression analysis were employed to identify independent factors influencing clinical efficacy. RESULTS A total of 156 patients were included, and 108 patients were treated effectively, with an effective rate of 69.23%. The results of univariate analysis indicated that there were statistically significant differences between 2 groups in terms of the duration of mechanical ventilation time, APACHE-Ⅱ score 24 h before medication, the number of complication types, the proportion of abnormal coagulation function, anti-infective treatment course, and hospital stay before medication (P<0.05). The results of multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that APACHE-Ⅱ score≥15 points 24 h before medication [OR=2.965, 95%CI (1.284, 6.845), P=0.020], mechanical 20251606) ventilation time≥10 d [OR=3.577, 95%CI (1.185, 10.793), P=0.037] and hospital stay≥14 d before medication [OR=2.422, 95%CI (1.036, 5.654), P=0.041] were independent 15120420253@139.com risk factors, and anti-infective treatment course>7 d was a protective factor [OR=0.445, 95%CI (0.221, 0.895), P=0.043]. CONCLUSIONS This study shows that the effective rate of polymyxin B combined with other antibiotics in the treatment of CRAB pulmonary infection is less than 70%. The mechanical ventilation time≥10 d, APACHE-Ⅱ score≥15 points 24 h before medication, and hospital stay≥14 d before medication may lead to treatment failure, whereas anti-infective treatment course>7 d may be associated with treatment success.

Objective :
To explore the relationship between single nucleotide polymorphisms ( SNPs) in D-loop region of mitochondrial DNA ( mtDNA) and mtDNA copy number and the risk of dermatomyositis ( DM) ,and its in- fluencing factors.
Methods :
74 patients with DM and 92 healthy controls were included in the study. Genomic DNA was extracted from peripheral blood and the target fragment of mtDNA D-loop region was amplified by PCR technique,and the products were subsequently sequenced.Serum levels of ROS were assessed using a high-sensi- tivity reactive oxygen species detection kit.The expression levels of cytokines,interleukin ( IL) -5,IL-13,inter- feron-γ ( IFN-γ) ,IL-2,IL-6,IL-10,tumor necrosis factor-α ( TNF-α) and IL-4 were measured using Flow Fluo- rescence Immunmicrobeads Assay.Wilcoxon rank-sum test was used to assess the potential correlation between cy- tokines and SNPs associated with DM risk.The relative copy number of mtDNA was measured using quantitative re- al-time polymerase chain reaction ( qPCR) analysis.
Results :
Two SNPs ( 16304T / C,16519T / C) were found to be associated with the risk of developing DM,and alleles 16304C ( χ2 = 4. 937,P = 0. 026) and 16519C ( χ2 = 4. 405,P = 0. 036) in the mitochondrial D-loop region were confirmed to be associated with DM development risk. The DM risk-associated allele 16304C was significantly associated with lower IL-4 expression ( P = 0. 016) .The mtDNA copy number was significantly higher in DM patients than in controls ( P <0. 001) .
Conclusion
Mitochondrial D-loop SNPs can be potential biomarkers for DM risk,and SNPs may be involved in DM by influencing cytokines.DM shows high expression of mtDNA copy number,and the increase in mtDNA copy number may lead to mitochondrial dysfunction,which triggers the pathogenesis of DM.

Objective:To evaluate the effect of low-dose esketamine for postoperative analgesia on the postoperative depression in patients with gastrointestinal tumors.Methods:This study was a prospective randomized controlled trial. Eighty patients, aged 18-64 yr, with a body mass index of 18-25 kg/m 2, of American Society of Anesthesiologists Physical Status classification Ⅱ or Ⅲ, scheduled for elective radical resection of the gastrointestinal tumor under general anesthesia from June to November 2023 in our hospital, were divided into 2 groups ( n=40 each) using a random number table method: esketamine group (group E) and control group (group C). Each patient received postoperative patient-controlled intravenous analgesia(PCIA). The PCIA solution in group E contained esketamine 0.5 mg/kg, dezocine 0.5 mg/kg, dexmetomidine 1.5 μg/kg and flurbiprofen ester 100 mg in 100 ml of normal saline. The PCIA solution in group C contained dezocine 0.5 mg/kg, dexmetomidine 1.5 μg/kg and flurbiprofen ester 100 mg in 100 ml of normal saline. The Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS) was used to assess the patients′ anxiety and depression at 1 day before operation (T 0) and 2 days after operation (T 1). The Quality of Recovery-15 scale was used to evaluate the early postoperative recovery quality. Visual analog scale scores, the pressing times of patient-controlled analgesia and the number of rescue analgesia were recorded within 2 days after operation. The occurrence of drug-related adverse reactions was also recorded. Results:Seventy-eight patients were finally included, with 39 cases in group E and 39 cases in group C. Compared with group C, the postoperative HADS-depression scale score and incidence of depression were significantly decreased, the Quality of Recovery-15 scale score was increased, the visual analog scale scores were decreased ( P<0.05), and no significant changes were found in the postoperative HADS-anxiety scale score and incidence of anxiety, the pressing times of patient-controlled analgesia and the number of rescue analgesia in group E ( P>0.05). Visual hallucination was found at 1 day after operation in one patient and relieved at 2 days after operation in group E. There was no significant difference in the incidence of postoperative dizziness, nausea and vomiting between the two groups ( P>0.05). Conclusions:Postoperative analgesia with 0.5 mg/kg esketamine can alleviate postoperative depressive symptoms, enhance the efficacy of analgesia and improve the early postoperative recovery quality in patients with gastrointestinal tumors.

Japanese encephalitis is an acute central nervous system infectious disease caused by Japanese encephalitis virus (JEV) with brain parenchyma inflammation, characterized by high fever, headache, positive meningeal irritation, impaired consciousness, convulsion, and respiratory failure, with mortality rate as high as 20%-30%, and with neurological sequelae in 30%-50% of survivors. The mechanism of brain damage caused by JEV infection is still unclear, and some studies imply its close relation with immune-inflammatory response. This article reviews the research progress on immune-inflammatory response mechanism of Japanese encephalitis to help to understand its pathogenesis.

Surgery is the mainstay of lung cancer treatment options.Traditionally,lobectomy has held its place as the gold standard for treating localized lung cancer,while sublobar resection,including wedge resection and segmentectomy,was primarily considered as an alternative,often reserved for patient ineligible to sustain a radical intervention.However,with the widespread application of computed tomography(CT)to clinical practice,the increasing detection rate of pulmonary ground glass nodules(GGNs)has reshaped this landscape.Ground glass opacity(GGO)in persistent lung nodules is an indicative factor of a favorable prognosis,typically corresponding to pathological changes such as atypical adenomatous hyperplasia(AAH),adenocarcinoma in situ(AIS),or adenocarcinomas predominantly featuring a lepidic growth pattern.A large number of retrospective studies have shown that sublobar resection can achieve satisfactory therapeutic outcomes for such lesions.A series of prospective studies from Japan have confirmed that for early-stage lung cancers dominated by GGOs,sublobar resection is also a viable curative surgical option.The follow-up data showed that there was no statistical difference in the survival status of these patients compared with that of pulmonary lobectomy.This article aims to delve into the role of limited lung resection in the context of lung adenocarcinoma presenting with GGO features.

Objective:To explore the association of hemoglobin(HGB) levels with bone mineral density(BMD) and osteoporosis in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus(T2DM).Methods:A cross-sectional study was conducted in 364 patients with T2DM who were hospitalized in the Department of Endocrinology and Geriatrics of the Affiliated Huaian No. 1 People′s Hospital of Nanjing Medical University from September 2019 to September 2020. Participants were stratified into tertiles(lower, middle, and upper) according to femoral BMD determined by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry. Demographic characteristics, medical history, chronic diabetes complications, and comorbid conditions were compared among the 3 groups. The association between hemoglobin levels and BMD/osteoporosis was examined using multivariable logistic regression analyses. Interaction and stratified analyses were conducted according to age, body mass index(BMI), duration of diabetes, estimated glomerular filtration rate(eGFR), glycosylated hemoglobin(HbA 1C), total cholesterol(TC), triglycerides(TG), high-density lipoprotein-cholesterol(HDL-C), low-density lipoprotein-cholesterol(LDL-C) and uric acid(UA). Results:After adjusting for age, BMI, and duration of diabetes, there were no significant differences observed in the association between hemoglobin levels and BMD or osteoporosis among postmenopausal women with T2DM(all P>0.05). After adjusting for age, BMI, duration of diabetes, and eGFR, men aged≥50 years with hemoglobin≥130 g/L showed a positive association between hemoglobin level and femoral neck BMD compared to those with hemoglobin<130 g/L( β=0.057, 95% CI 0.014-0.100, P=0.011). However, no significant associations were observed between hemoglobin level and BMDs at the total hip or lumbar spine(L1-L4), nor the risk of osteoporosis(all P>0.05). Stratified analyses revealed no significant differences in the subgroups classified based on age, BMI, diabetes duration, eGFR, HbA 1C, TC, TG, HDL-C, LDL-C, and UA(all interaction P>0.05). Conclusion:In males aged 50 and above with T2DM, elevated hemoglobin levels may be a protective factor for femoral neck bone density.
