[摘 要] 目的：探讨胃肝样腺癌（HAS）的临床病理特征与免疫微环境异质性，筛选预后标志物，阐释其高侵袭性与疗效差的机制，为精准诊疗策略提供理论依据。方法:​​ 回顾性收集2013年1月至2025年5月期间海军军医大学第一附属医院与第二附属医院收治的65例HAS患者的临床信息及病理资料。采用免疫组织化学技术检测HAS​​肝样分化标志物、神经内分泌标志物​​等分子表达情况，通过Kaplan-Meier生存分析法明确与预后相关的靶点。利用多色免疫荧光技术鉴定肿瘤区域内免疫细胞亚群分布情况，以阐明其免疫微环境特征。结果：65例患者中，男性54例（83.1%），女性11例（16.9%），中位年龄68岁。肿瘤好发于贲门（40%），其次为胃窦（32.3%）和胃体（27.7%）。中位随访时间23.18个月，15例患者死亡，46例生存，4例失访。HAS的胃镜及手术标本大体观呈灰白色实性质硬肿物，镜下可见中低分化胃腺癌与肝细胞癌（HCC）样分化区交错分布。表达神经内分泌相关分子的HAS患者呈现出更多的淋巴结转移数量及更短的总生存期。免疫微环境解析显示，HAS总体缺乏免疫细胞浸润，呈现“冷肿瘤”特征；免疫细胞主要聚集于胃癌腺体周围区域，而在HCC样分化区域罕见淋巴细胞浸润。结论：HAS侵袭性强，根治性手术是主要治疗手段；神经内分泌转化提示不良预后，是个体化治疗的关键标志；免疫细胞浸润缺乏，可能是其免疫治疗响应不佳的原因。

Radiotherapy is a crucial treatment modality for head and neck tumors. However, while effectively killing tumor cells, it significantly disrupts the homeostasis of the oral microecology, which is closely associated with various complications such as radiation-induced oral mucositis. Literature review indicates that as radiotherapy doses accumulate and treatment durations extend, the richness and diversity of the oral microbiota show a declining trend, with the genus Streptococcus decreasing most markedly. In contrast, radiotherapy selectively promotes the proliferation of bacterial phyla such as Proteobacteria and Bacteroidetes, which are rich in opportunistic pathogens. Mechanistically, radiotherapy activates the nuclear factor-kappa B pathway, triggering chronic inflammation and oxidative stress, damaging the epithelial barrier, suppressing local immunity, and causing damage to organs such as the salivary glands. It can also induce systemic diseases via the oral-gut axis, forming a multi-level, interconnected pathogenic network. In terms of interventions, treatment strategies including probiotics and prebiotics have shown promising efficacy against side effects such as radiation-induced oral mucositis. Saliva-based oral microbiota transplantation is an emerging strategy that is expected to become widely utilized for restoring oral microecological balance. Existing interventions provide preliminary pathways for clinical practice, but this field still faces several key scientific questions. The association between oral microecology and systemic diseases remains largely correlative, lacking causal evidence. Furthermore, critical parameters for oral microbiota transplantation, such as donor screening criteria, transplantation protocols, and long-term safety, are not yet well-defined. Therefore, future research should focus on conducting large-scale clinical trials to establish standardized protocols and safety evaluation systems for oral microecological interventions, and explore combined treatment therapies such as probiotics, prebiotics, and microbiota transplantation to advance the development of personalized precision modulation. These will enable more effective management of radiotherapy-induced oral microecological dysbiosis and improve treatment outcomes and quality of life for patients with head and neck tumors.

Objective:To investigate variation and correlation of type 2 intrinsic lymphocyte(ILC2)and related factors in acute and chronic brucellosis,to identify immune role of ILC2 in chronic brucellosis.Methods:Forty-three patients with acute brucel-losis and 45 patients with chronic brucellosis were compared with 49 healthy controls.ILC2 level in each group was detected by flow cytometry.mRNA level of GATA3 in PBMC was detected by fluorescence quantitative PCR.Serum IL-33,ST2,IL-4 and IL-13 levels were detected by ELISA.ALT and AST levels were measured by fully automatic biochemical analyzer.Results:ILC2 level,GATA3 mRNA in PBMC,serum IL-33,IL-4 and IL-13 levels in chronic brucellosis group were significantly higher than healthy control group and acute brucellosis group(P<0.01).Correlation analysis showed that ILC2 level was positively correlated with GATA3 mRNA,IL-33,IL-4 and IL-13 levels,while negatively correlated with ST2 level.ROC curve suggested that ILC2,GATA3,IL-33 and ST2 had good predictive ability for severity of brucellosis patients(AUC>0.7).Conclusion:Increase of ILC2 and its related factors are closely related to chronic brucella infection,which may play an important immune role in pathogenesis of brucella infection.

Purpose To investigate the cortical thickness features in Parkinson's disease(PD)patients at various stages and their association with dopamine transporter(DAT)levels in the putamen.Materials and Methods We retrospectively enrolled 30 PD patients and 15 healthy subject who underwent 11C-CFT PET and T1 MRI scans at the Department of Nuclear Medicine/PET Center of Huashan Hospital from August 2016 to October 2020.DAT average radioactivity in the anterior and posterior putamen was analysis using SPM12 software,with the occipital lobe as the reference region.Cortical segmentation and reconstruction were performed on T1 images using Freesurfer v7.2.The differences in cortical thinning between the groups were compared using a general linear model.Additionally,the relationship between cortical thickness in various brain regions and DAT uptake in the putamen were assessed.Results Compared to healthy subjects,significant cortical thinning was observed in the left inferior parietal lobule and the right and left inferior middle frontal gyrus of PD patients(all P<0.05).There was a significant positive correlation between the cortical thickness of the left inferior parietal lobule and right inferior middle frontal gyrus and DAT uptake in the corresponding anterior/posterior parts of the putamen(r=0.30-0.47,all P<0.05).Furthermore,the DAT uptake in the right precentral gyrus was positively correlated with the ipsilateral posterior putamen,exhibiting a stronger correlation than on the contralateral side(r=0.32,P=0.029).Conclusion The results show that the thickness of the thinning cortex area in the PD patients correlates significantly positively with DAT levels in the putamen,highlighting the importance of the basal ganglia cortical circuit and providing a basis for further research into the neural mechanisms of PD.

Photoacoustic microscopy(PAM)is an emerging, non-invasive, in vivo imaging modality that merges optical and acoustic principles. It offers high-resolution and high-contrast visualization of various ocular tissue structures and functional information, making it suitable for studying a wide range of ophthalmic diseases such as corneal neovascularization, macular degeneration, and diabetic retinopathy. The multi-wavelength illumination capability of PAM makes it particularly valuable for early disease screening and dynamic physiological monitoring. In stem cell tracking, PAM enables the dynamic monitoring of transplanted cells through contrast agent labeling. Moreover, when combined with multimodal imaging techniques like optical coherence tomography(OCT), PAM can enhance the detection accuracy and diagnostic capacity for ocular diseases. However, PAM still requires optimization in terms of imaging speed and contrast agent safety. This review summarizes the fundamental principles and development of PAM, explores its applications in specific ophthalmic diseases, and analyzes the challenges and optimization directions from animal experiments to clinical applications. PAM holds great promise for playing a more significant role in ophthalmic diagnosis and treatment.

Diabetic cardiomyopathy （DCM）， a cardiovascular complication caused by diabetes mellitus， is a major cause of heart failure and even sudden cardiac death in diabetic patients. Traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） posits that the core pathogenesis of DCM lies in internal deficiency and superficial excess， characterized by deficiency of both Qi and Yin combined with phlegm and blood stasis. Modern medical treatments for DCM primarily focus on blood glucose control and symptom alleviation yet lack targeted therapeutic strategies. In contrast， TCM offers a wealth of practical experience and a complete theoretical system， demonstrating definite clinical efficacy and high medication safety in DCM management. As a classic formula for tonifying Qi and nourishing Yin， Shengmaisan comprises Ginseng Radix et Rhizoma， Ophiopogonis Radix， and Schisandrae Chinensis Fructus. It contains multiple bioactive components， including ginsenosides， ophiopogonin， schisandrins， and homoisoflavonoids， which exhibit cardioprotective properties. The therapeutic mechanisms of Shengmaisan-like formulae for DCM involve enhancing myocardial contractility， attenuating myocardial fibrosis， modulating mitochondrial quality control， regulating glucose metabolism， mitigating oxidative stress， and suppressing inflammatory responses. Clinically， Shengmaisan-like formulae not only manage hyperglycemic status but also ameliorate cardiac structural and functional impairments and enhance exercise tolerance in DCM patients， playing a vital role in the prevention， treatment， and rehabilitation of DCM. This paper analyzes the feasibility of Shengmaisan-like formulae in DCM management and synthesizes current research achievements regarding their chemical components， mechanisms of action， and clinical applications， aiming to provide a scientific foundation for the use of such formulae in the treatment of DCM.

Concurrently, ongoing developments in treatment modalities have expanded the options available for both patients and clinicians. The challenge now lies in making informed decisions to achieve individualized precision medicine, which merits thorough exploration. This article aims to review the latest research on personalized treatment strategies for early-stage HCC, providing a reasonable reference and valuable insights for clinicians.

The liver is the most common anatomical site for hematogenous metastases of colorectal cancer. Hepatic resection is the preferred treatment for colorectal cancer liver metastasis (CRLM). However, a disappointingly small proportion of patients are deemed suitable for surgical resection upon initial consultation. Failure to adequately address these metastatic tumors results in a dire 5-year survival rate of less than 5%. In recent times, thermal ablation, a minimally invasive procedure aimed at controlling local tumor progression, has undergone rigorous validation and garnered recognition for its effectiveness and safety in managing CRLM. This article endeavors to review the advancements in research concerning thermal ablation in the treatment of CRLM, exploring its efficacy, safety profile, and the promising avenues for its clinical application.

Objective To investigate the influencing factors for stroke-associated pneumonia(SAP)in acute ischemic stroke(AIS)patients after endovascular treatment(EVT).Methods A retrospective case-control trial was conducted on 426 AIS patients with large vessel occlusion(LVO)in anterior circulation admitted in the neurological departments from First Affiliated Hospital of Army Medical University and Zigong Third People's Hospital during January 2017 and April 2021.Based on SAP occurrence or not,they were divided into an SAP group and a non-SAP group.Demographic information(gender and age),TOAST stroke subtypes(large artery atherosclerosis type,cardiac embolism type,others),vascular risk factors(hypertension,hyperlipidemia,diabetes,atrial fibrillation,smoking,prior stroke history,smoking),and post-onset clinical data[dysphagia,LDL cholesterol,white blood cells,neutrophils,baseline and postoperative NIHSS scores,endovascular outcomes(mTICI grade 2b or 3),90-day good prognosis(mRS 0-1)]were collected and compared between the 2 groups.Multivariate logistic regression analysis was performed using the parameters with P<0.1 in univariate analysis as independent variables to investigate factors influencing SAP occurrence after EVT in AIS patients.Results Among the 426 participants,SAP occurred in 194 cases(45.5%).Multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that admission white blood cell count(OR=1.125,95%CI:1.043～1.213,P=0.000 2),postoperative NIHSS score(OR=1.019,95%CI:1.001～1.037,P=0.041),and male(OR=1.687,95%CI:1.078～2.638,P=0.022)were associated with SAP occurrence after EVT in AIS patients.Conclusion Higher admission white blood cell count,elevated postoperative NIHSS score,and male gender are risk factors for SAP in AIS patients after EVT.These risk factors should be focused on clinical practice to control SAP incidence.

BACKGROUND: Lung cancer has the highest mortality rate among all malignant tumors, and non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) accounts for about 80%-85% of all lung cancers. Lobectomy and lymph node dissection are one of the most important treatment methods, and lymph node dissection, as an important part, has attracted much attention. And its mode and scope of dissection may affect postoperative complications, particularly the occurrence of chronic cough. The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of lymph node dissection on postoperative chronic cough in patients with NSCLC undergoing lobectomy, and to provide clinical evidence for optimizing surgical strategy and reducing postoperative chronic cough. METHODS: A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of 365 NSCLC patients who underwent lobectomy at the First Affiliated Hospital of University of Science and Technology of China from December 2020 to December 2023. The relationship between clinical characteristics and postoperative chronic cough was analyzed. The Chinese version of the Leicester Cough Questionnaire (LCQ-MC) scores were collected from the patients at 2 time points: 1 day before surgery and 8 weeks after surgery. Patients were divided according to lymph node dissection methods, to explore the relationship between lymph node dissection and chronic cough after lobectomy. Additionally, patients were divided into chronic cough and non-chronic cough groups based on the presence of postoperative chronic cough, to investigate whether perioperative data, lymph node dissection methods, and lymph node dissection regions were influencing factors. RESULTS: Patients undergoing lobectomy were more likely to have chronic cough after surgery in the systematic lymph node dissection group than in the lymph node sampling group (P<0.05). LCQ-MC scale evaluation showed that the psychological, physiological, social and total score of the patients in systematic lymph node dissection group were significantly lower than those in lymph node sampling group (P<0.05). Multivariate analysis showed that anesthesia time, operation site, lymph node dissection method, whether to perform upper mediastinal lymph node dissection, number of upper mediastinal lymph node dissection, whether to perform lower mediastinal lymph node dissection and total number of lymph node dissection were independent risk factors for postoperative chronic cough in NSCLC patients (P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS When NSCLC patients underwent lobectomy, lymph node sampling was associated with a significantly lower risk of chronic cough than systematic lymph node dissection. Dissecting lymph nodes in the upper and lower mediastinal regions and the number of lymph nodes dissected may increase the risk of postoperative cough and reduce the quality of life of patients after surgery.
