Antibody-drug conjugates （ADCs） are a novel class of anti-tumor agents composed of a targeted monoclonal antibody， a cytotoxic drug， and a linker connecting the two. They combine the high specificity of antibodies with the potent cytotoxicity of chemotherapeutic agents. Triple-negative breast cancer （TNBC） is characterized by high aggressiveness， elevated risks of recurrence and metastasis， and poor prognosis， largely due to the lack of effective therapeutic targets. This review summarizes the research progress of ADCs in the treatment of TNBC. It has been found that ADCs targeting human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 （such as trastuzumab deruxtecan）， trophoblast cell surface antigen 2 （such as sacituzumab govitecan and datopotamab deruxtecan）， zinc transporter LIV-1 （such as ladiratuzumab vedotin）， HER-3 （such as patritumab deruxtecan）， epidermal growth factor receptor （such as AVID100）， and glycoprotein non-metastatic melanoma protein B （such as glembatumumab vedotin） have all demonstrated promising therapeutic effects against TNBC. Despite challenges including acquired resistance and treatment-related toxicities， ADCs are undoubtedly reshaping the therapeutic landscape for TNBC and are expected to occupy a more central position in TNBC treatment in the future.

Purpose: This study aimed to develop a comprehensive practical guide for enteral nutrition (EN) designed to enhance patient safety and reduce complications in Korea. Under the leadership of the Korean Society for Parenteral and Enteral Nutrition (KSPEN), the initiative sought to standardize EN procedures, improve decision-making, and promote effective multidisciplinary communication. Methods: The KSPEN EN committee identified key questions related to EN practices and organized them into seven sections such as prescribing, delivery route selection, formula preparation, administration, and quality management. Twenty-one experts, selected based on their expertise, conducted a thorough literature review to formulate evidence-based recommendations. Drafts underwent peer review both within and across disciplines, with final revisions completed by the KSPEN Guideline Committee. The guide, which will be published in three installments, addresses critical elements of EN therapy and safety protocols. Results: The practical guide recommends that EN orders include detailed elements and advocates the use of electronic medical records for communication. Standardized prescription forms and supplementary safety measures are outlined. Review frequency is adjusted according to patient condition—daily for critically ill or unstable patients and as dictated by institutional protocols for stable patients. Evidence indicates that adherence to these protocols reduces mortality, complications, and prescription errors. Conclusion The KSPEN practical guide offers a robust framework for the safe delivery of EN tailored to Korea’s healthcare context. It emphasizes standardized protocols and interdisciplinary collaboration to improve nutritional outcomes, patient safety, and operational efficiency. Rigorous implementation and monitoring of adherence are critical for its success.

Objective:To explore the causal association between insulin-like growth factor-1(IGF-1)and colorectal cancer(CRC)based on two sample Mendelian randomization(MR)analysis.Methods:A bidirectional two sample MR analysis was conducted based on publicly aggregated data from the IEU OpenGWAS project.The inverse variance weighted(IVW)method was used as the main analysis model to assess the causal relationship between IGF-1 and CRC.Additional analyses were performed using weighted median(WM),MR-Egger regression,weighted mode estimator(WME),and simple mode(SM)methods.Sensitivity analysis was performed to assess the robustness of the results.Results:A total of 386 single nucleotide polymorphisms(SNPs)were selected as instrumental variables(IVs)with IGF-1 as the exposure factor.The MR analysis results revealed a positive causal association between IGF-1 and the risk of CRC[odds ratio(OR)=1.178,95％confidence interval(CI):1.092-1.272)](P＜0.001),and the association remained significant after adjusting for height[OR(95％CI)=1.214(1.111,1.327)](P＜0.001).Cochran's Q-test showed heterogeneity among the IVs(P＜0.05),while the horizontal pleiotropy of IV was not detected by the MR-Egger regression(P＞0.05).The leave-one-out analysis showed that the MR results were robust.Reverse MR analysis indicated no reverse causal relationship between IGF-1 and CRC[OR(95％CI):1.017(0.997,1.037)](P=0.103).Conclusion:There is a causal relationship between IGF-1 level and CRC,and elevated IGF-1 level could be a risk factor for CRC.

Objective:To investigate the effect of titanium wire-absorbable suture dual line combined firm stitching technique in costal cartilage framework shaping for auricular reconstruction in congenital microtia patients.Methods:A retrospective study was conducted on 120 patients with congenital microtia who underwent auricular reconstruction surgery at the Plastic Surgery Hospital of Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences and Peking Union Medical College from January 2020 to December 2021. Among these, 86 were male and 34 were female, with an age range of 6-15 (8.5±2.1) years. All patients underwent auricular reconstruction using the expanded skin flap method, and the titanium wire-absorbable suture dual line combined firm stitching technique was used to construct a multi-layer three-dimensional autologous costal cartilage framework. Postoperative follow-up was conducted for 1 to 3 years to evaluate the morphology, stability, patient satisfaction, and occurrence of adverse reactions.Results:Of the 120 patients, 119 (99.2%) achieved primary healing. The reconstructed auricles were lifelike with clear substructures, and the long-term shape of the auricles remained stable without significant deformation. One patient developed a local skin infection and ulceration, leading to exposure of the cartilage framework, which was successfully repaired using a temporal fascia flap and free skin graft. A total of 85.8% (103/120) of the patients were satisfied with the postoperative results, 13.3% (16/120) rated the outcome as average, and 0.8% (1/120) were dissatisfied. No cases of hematoma or flap necrosis were observed in any of the patients.Conclusion:The costal cartilage framework, constructed using the titanium wire-absorbable suture dual line combined firm stitching technique, demonstrates good clinical effects for auricular reconstruction with no severe adverse reactions.

Objective To explore the effectiveness and safety of transurethral thermal steam ablation for the treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia(BPH)patients with high-grade and high-risk.Methods Clinical data of elderly BPH pa-tients with high-risk treated with transurethral water vapour thermal from February 2022 to January 2025 were retrospectively ana-lyzed.The operation time,intraoperative bleeding,the number of injections during surgery,postoperative indwelling urinary catheter time,and surgical complications were recorded.And the differences in the International Prostate Symptom Score(IPSS),Quality of Life Score(QOL),Maximum Urinary Flow Rate(Qmax),and Residual Volume of Urine(PVR)before and after 3 and 6 months of the operation were recorded respectively.Results All 30 cases were successfully completed with an operation time of(10.167±2.984)min,intraoperative bleeding of(1.600±1.133)mL,the number of injections during surgery(6.600±1.793).No case of transfusion occurred.And the mean postoperative indwelling urinary catheter time was(8.467±3.246)d.After 3 and 6 months of postoperative follow-up,the Qmax increased from the preoperative(3.463±2.503)mL/s to(10.177±1.625)mL/s and(11.747±1.888)mL/s.PVR decreased from preoperative(209.623±191.960)mL to(40.433±23.713)mL and(30.300±20.223)mL.IPSS score decreased from preoperative(29.533±4.216)to(15.067±3.183)and(12.100±3.546).And QOL score decreased from preoperative(5.033±0.718)to(2.600±0.814)and(2.367±0.850).There were significant differences in observational indexes before and after the operation(P＜0.05).There was no case of postoperative urinary incontinence or secondary bleeding.Conclusion Transurethral water vapour thermal therapy is safe and effective for the treatment of elderly BPH patients with high-risk.

Objective:To explore the short-term clinical effects of deep cervical lymph node-venous anastomosis in the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease (AD).Methods:A prospective exploratory study was conducted on the treatment of AD patients using the cervical deep lymph node-venous anastomosis technique in Scar and Wound Treatment Department, Plastic Surgery Hospital, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences, from September to October 2024. The patients underwent high-frequency ultrasound to locate deep cervical lymph nodes and the external jugular vein. Under general anesthesia, bilateral deep cervical lymph node-venous anastomoses were performed. Indocyanine green (ICG) lymphography was conducted via subcutaneous injection behind the ear to visualize lymph nodes in levels Ⅱ and Ⅲ. After making a skin incision along the posterior margin of the sternocleidomastoid muscle, the external jugular vein, internal jugular veins, and associated lymph nodes were exposed. Adjacent veins were selected for anastomosis of lymph node. Using microsurgical techniques, end-to-side or end-to-end anastomosis was completed for lymph nodes in levels Ⅱ and Ⅲ. Preoperative assessments included the mini-mental state examination (MMSE, a higher score indicates better cognitive function), Alzheimer’s disease assessment scale-cognitive subscale (ADAS-Cog, a higher score indicates greater impairment of cognitive function), Alzheimer’s disease cooperative study scale for activities of daily living (ADCS-ADL, a higher score indicates better ability to perform daily activity), and neuropsychiatric inventory (NPI, a higher score indicates more severe behavioral and emotional symptom). Postoperative follow-up included the same scales to observe changes in cognitive function, activities of daily living, and emotional communication.Results:Four patients (1 male, 3 females, aged 58-79 years) with AD were included. All were diagnosed based on cerebrospinal fluid biomarkers. All patients successfully underwent bilateral deep cervical lymph node-venous anastomoses. On average, 4.3 (2-7 per person) anastomoses were performed per patient. Surgical procedures lasted an average of 6.5 h (5.5-8.5 h) with minimal blood loss (less than 50 ml). Patients resumed normal activity within 6 hours postoperatively and were discharged after an average of 4.1 d (3.5-5.0 d). Postoperative complications included one case each of aspiration pneumonia, lower limb venous thrombosis, and transient delirium, all of whom resolved without long-term effects. Clinical symptoms, including memory decline, mood swings, and anxiety, showed varying degrees of improvement. Patients reported enhanced quality of life, emotional stability, and social engagement, confirming the procedure’s safety and potential cognitive benefits. At one month postoperatively, the MMSE scores of the four patients increased by an average of 0.8 points compared to preoperative levels. Additionally, the two patients who completed the ADAS-Cog assessments showed a decrease in their scores (reduced by 1.0 points and 11.3 points, respectively, compared to preoperative scores), indicating a certain degree of improvement in cognitive function during this period. The ADCS-ADL and NPI scores of four patients varied significantly, without showing any clear pattern.Conclusion:Lymphovenous anastomosis of the deep cervical lymph node-venous anastomosis may provide a new surgical intervention approach for AD, but further large-scale studies and long-term follow-up are needed to validate its safety and effectiveness.

BACKGROUND:Ankle fracture complicated with deltoid ligament injury is clinically common,and one stage repair of deltoid ligament with internal fracture fixation has gradually become a main therapeutic method,which can significantly reduce the long-term complications of ankle joint.In recent years,new progress has been made in anatomical structure characteristics and dynamic biomechanical research of deltoid ligament,thus greatly improving repairing techniques for injury in the deep layer of deltoid ligament,but there are still some controversies.OBJECTIVE:To explore the clinical efficacy of suture anchor and medial malleolus repair in the treatment of ankle joint fractures with the deep layer of deltoid ligament.METHODS:A total of 56 patients with ankle joint fractures and complete fracture of the deep and superficial layer of deltoid ligament treated in Affiliated Haikou Hospital,Xiangya School of Medicine,Central South University from January 2017 to January 2022 were selected,and they were divided into two groups according to different treatment methods in repairing the deep layer of deltoid ligament with suture anchor:suture anchor repair group(n=32)and medial malleolus repair group(n=24).The medial clear space of ankle joint and American Orthopedic Foot and Ankle Society Score of patients in the two groups were evaluated before and after operative treatment.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)All the 56 patients finished the surgery smoothly and were followed up for more than 12 months after operation.Their ankle fracture healed,and the time for fracture healing was 8-12 weeks,with a mean of 10.5 weeks.(2)The medial clear space of ankle joint in the two groups 12 months after operation was remarkably narrower than that before operation,and the difference was statistically significant(P＜0.001).The medial clear space of ankle joint in the two groups maintained a normal range 12 months after operation,and there was no statistically significant difference between the two groups(P＞0.05).(3)The AOFAS scale of patients in the two groups 6 and 12 months after operation was obviously bigger than that before operation(P＜0.001),but there was no statistically significant difference in the American Orthopedic Foot and Ankle Society Score of patients between the two groups at corresponding time points(P＞0.05).(4)It is concluded that both suture anchor and medial malleolus repair in the treatment of injury in the deep layer of deltoid ligament can recover the medial clear space of ankle joint,effectively keep the stability of ankle,and thus achieve good clinical efficacy.
