Objective To evaluate the efficacy and safety of intraoperative pleural irrigation with Nocardia rubra cell-wall skeleton (N-CWS) for reducing pleural effusion drainage after radical surgery for lung cancer. Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of lung cancer patients who underwent lobectomy and mediastinal lymph node dissection at the First Affiliated Hospital of Xiamen University between December 2024 and May 2025. Patients were divided into a control group and an irrigation group based on the intraoperative use of N-CWS. Patients in the irrigation group received pleural irrigation with 800 μg of N-CWS diluted in 10 mL of normal saline. The following outcomes were compared between the two groups: pleural effusion drainage volume at 0-24 h, 24-48 h, and 48-72 h postoperatively, degree of air leak, chest tube duration, postoperative length of stay, and the incidence of adverse events (fever, chest pain, and nausea and vomiting). Results A total of 245 patients were included (97 males, 148 females) with a mean age of (61.28±6.26) years, with 205 in the control group and 40 in the irrigation group. Compared to the control group, the irrigation group showed significantly lower pleural effusion drainage volumes at 0-24 h, 24-48 h, and 48-72 h, as well as shorter chest tube duration and postoperative length of stay (all P<0.05). There was no statistical difference in the degree of postoperative air leak (P=0.661). No significant differences were observed between the two groups regarding the highest body temperature within 72 h post-surgery (P=0.130), fever grade (P=0.196), severity of chest pain (P=0.105), or the incidence of nausea and vomiting (P=0.376). Conclusion Intraoperative pleural irrigation with N-CWS in patients undergoing lobectomy and mediastinal lymph node dissection for lung cancer can significantly reduce postoperative pleural effusion drainage volume, shorten chest tube duration and length of hospital stay. The procedure is safe and feasible.

Lung cancer is the malignant tumor with the highest morbidity and mortality. The tumor-node-metastasis (TNM) staging has gradually shown its limitations in the accurate prediction of lung cancer, so it is urgent to construct a new clinical predictive model to guide the prevention and treatment of lung cancer. In recent years, as a comprehensive evaluation system based on peripheral immune related parameters, the value of peripheral immunoscore in the construction of predictive model has gradually become prominent. By quantifying the quantity and proportion of immune components in peripheral blood, the score can dynamically reflect the overall immune function and tumor microenvironment characteristics of the body. This paper systematically summarizes the latest research progress of peripheral immunoscore in early diagnosis, drug efficacy prediction, early warning of adverse reactions and prognosis evaluation of lung cancer, aiming to tap its potential clinical application value and provide some ideas and directions for developing new lung cancer-related predictive models.

The recurrent neural network architecture improves the processing ability of time-series data. However, issues such as exploding gradients and poor feature extraction limit its application in the automatic diagnosis of mild cognitive impairment (MCI). This paper proposed a research approach for building an MCI diagnostic model using a Bayesian-optimized bidirectional long short-term memory network (BO-BiLSTM) to address this problem. The diagnostic model was based on a Bayesian algorithm and combined prior distribution and posterior probability results to optimize the BO-BiLSTM network hyperparameters. It also used multiple feature quantities that fully reflected the cognitive state of the MCI brain, such as power spectral density, fuzzy entropy, and multifractal spectrum, as the input of the diagnostic model to achieve automatic MCI diagnosis. The results showed that the feature-fused Bayesian-optimized BiLSTM network model achieved an MCI diagnostic accuracy of 98.64% and effectively completed the diagnostic assessment of MCI. In conclusion, based on this optimization, the long short-term neural network model has achieved automatic diagnostic assessment of MCI, providing a new diagnostic model for intelligent diagnosis of MCI.

Three groups of children with different efficacy had no statistical significance ( P>0.05). The significant efficiency in mild and moderate groups was higher than that in severe group, and the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.05). Conclusions:Botulinum toxin type A is effective in the treatment of children with mild and moderate bromhidrosis, and is worthy of clinical application.

ObjectiveTo explore the action mechanism of Linggan Wuwei Jiangxintang on the treatment of lipopolysaccharide （LPS）-induced acute lung injury （ALI） in mice. MethodTraditional Chinese Medicine Systems Pharmacology Database and Analysis Platform （TCMSP）， GeneCards， DisGeNET， and Herb databases were combined with clinical data from Gene Expression Omnibus （GEO） to screen the key targets of Linggan Wuwei Jiangxintang in the treatment of ALI. The protein-protein interaction （PPI） network was constructed to screen the core targets， and gene ontology （GO） and Kyoto encyclopedia of genes and genomes （KEGG） pathway enrichment analyses were performed. The mouse ALI model was established by LPS induction to verify the effect and key targets of Linggan Wuwei Jiangxintang on the treatment of ALI. The expression levels of Toll-like receptor 4 （TLR4）， nuclear transcription factor-κB p65 （NF-κB p65）， and phosphorylated NF-κB p65 （NF-κB p-p65） in lung tissue were detected by Western blot. ResultThe analysis showed that the treatment of ALI with Linggan Wuwei Jiangxintang was related to 10 core targets such as interleukin-6 （IL-6）， tumor necrosis factor-α （TNF-α）， and JUN， involving TNF signaling pathway， Toll-like receptor signaling pathway， NF-κB signaling pathway， etc. The animal experimental results show that Linggan Wuwei Jiangxintang can reduce lung injury， improve the pathological state of ALI mice， significantly reduce the expression of TNF-α and IL-6 in serum， increase the activity of total superoxide dismutase （T-SOD） and catalase （CAT） in lung tissue， and reduce the expression levels of JUN， TLR4， NF-κB p65， and NF-κB p-p65 proteins in lung tissue. ConclusionLinggan Wuwei Jiangxintang can inhibit LPS-induced inflammation and oxidative damage in ALI mice， and its mechanism may be related to the inhibition of TLR4/NF-κB signaling pathway and the reduction of inflammatory factors such as TNF-α and IL-6.

At present, the most commonly used surgical measures for treatment of severe traumatic brain injury (sTBI) mainly include external ventricular puncture and drainage (EVD), decompressive craniectomy (DC), intracranial hematoma clearance and intracerebral decompression of contusion and laceration. All of these procedures can reduce intracranial pressure (ICP) and mortality, but they have the disadvantage of high postoperative adverse functional outcomes. With further study of glyymphatic system and intracranial microsurgery, some scholars have proposed a new neurosurgical technique: cisternostomy, which could achieve good results in the treatment of some refractory intracranial hypertension patients with sTBI. In this paper, we will summarize the recent advance in cisternostomy in the treatment of sTBI by reviewing the relevant literature at domestic and abroad in recent years, including the systematic evaluation of its pathophysiological basis, surgical techniques, surgical indications and contraindications, and surgical efficacy.

Objective:To investigate the influences of minimally invasive hematoma removal assisted by stereotaxis technique and conservative treatment in clinical prognoses of patients with small/medium intracerebral hematoma in the basal ganglia.Methods:Sixty-four patients with spontaneous basal ganglia cerebral hemorrhage, admitted to our hospital from March 2020 to March 2021, were enrolled in our study; these patients were randomly divided into surgical group (accepted minimally invasive hematoma removal assisted by stereotaxis technique, n=33) and conservative treatment group ( n=31). The baseline general data and 6 months follow-up data of patients from the 2 groups were compared. The Glasgow outcome scale (GOS) scores, modified Barthel index (MBI), modified Rankin scale (mRS) scores and complications were compared 7 d, 1 month and 6 months after surgery. Results:There were no significant differences in gender, age, and amount of bleeding between the 2 groups ( P>0.05). On the 7 th d of surgery, there were no significant differences in GOS scores, MBI, and mRS scores between the 2 groups ( P>0.05). One month after surgery, there were statistically significant differences in GOS scores, MBI, and mRS scores between the 2 groups ( P<0.05); the good prognosis rate in the surgical group was 78.79% (26/33), and that in the conservative treatment group was 25.81%(8/31), with significant difference ( P<0.05). Six months after surgery, there were significant differences in GOS scores, MBI, and mRS scores between the 2 groups ( P<0.05); the good prognosis rate in the surgical group was 95.7% (29/33), and that in the conservative treatment group was 32.3% (10/31), with significant difference ( P<0.05). The incidence of complications in the surgical group and conservative treatment group was 6.06% and 29.03%, respectively, with significant difference ( P<0.05). Conclusion:Minimally invasive hematoma removal assisted by stereotaxis technique is more conducive to the repair of nerve function in patients with moderate to small cerebral hemorrhage in the basal ganglia than conservative treatment.
