Objective: To characterize perioperative dynamic changes in immune-cell phenotypes and inflammatory cytokines in patients undergoing CPB (cardiopulmonary bypass) cardiac surgery, and to explore their associations with postoperative outcomes. Methods: In this prospective cohort study, 120 adult patients who underwent elective cardiac surgery under CPB at West China Hospital from May 2022 to March 2023 were enrolled. Perioperative immune-cell phenotypes and concentrations of 40 inflammation-related cytokines were measured. The primary outcomes were the sequential organ failure assessment (SOFA) score at 24 h after surgery and ΔSOFA (the peak SOFA score within 48 h after surgery minus the preoperative SOFA score). Secondary outcomes included major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE), acute kidney injury (AKI), respiratory failure, severe liver injury, and infection. Results: The mean age of enrolled patients was 57±10 years. Of these, 52% (62/120) were male and 90% (108/120) underwent valve surgery. During the rewarming to the end of CPB, neutrophil counts rapidly increased (7.39×10
/L vs preoperative 3.07×10
/L, P<0.001), with significant upregulation of CD11b (7.30×10
/L vs preoperative 3.05×10
/L, P<0.001) and CD54 (7.15×10
/L vs preoperative 2.99×10
/L, P<0.001). Lymphocyte counts increased at the end of CPB (1.75×10
/L vs preoperative 1.12×10
/L, P<0.001) but decreased significantly at 24 h after surgery (0.59×10
/L vs preoperative 1.12×10
/L, P<0.001). Plasma analysis showed that multiple pro-inflammatory cytokines increased during CPB and remained elevated up to 24 h after surgery; five chemokines and the anti-inflammatory cytokine IL-10 peaked at the end of CPB. The SOFA score increased from 1 (1, 2) preoperatively to 7 (5, 10) at 24 h after surgery, with a ΔSOFA of 6 (4, 8). Within 30 days after surgery, 48 patients (40.0%) developed AKI, 17 (14.2%) developed infection, 4 (3.3%) developed severe liver injury, 3 (2.5%) developed respiratory failure, and 3 (2.5%) experienced MACE. During the 2-year follow-up, 8 patients (6.7%) experienced MACE and 5 (4.2%) died. Conclusion: Multi-organ dysfunction is common after cardiac surgery under CPB (median ΔSOFA, 6), accompanied by perioperative activation of multiple immune-cell subsets and upregulation of pro-inflammatory, anti-inflammatory, and chemotactic mediators. This study provides data-driven evidence and research clues for further investigation of the associations between CPB-related immune perturbations and postoperative organ dysfunction and clinical outcomes.

Prostate cancer is one of the most common malignant tumors of male genitourinary system. Prostate cancer has the following characteristics: insidious onset, early asymptomatic or not obvious symptoms, complex etiology and pathogenesis, long incubation period and so on. Therefore, the realization of its early diagnosis and treatment is of great significance to the prognosis of patients. Prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) is a type 2 transmembrane glycoprotein that is highly expressed on the membrane of almost all primary and metastatic prostate cancer cells, and is an ideal target for prostate cancer imaging and treatment. In recent years, with the approval of urea-containing small molecule PET (positron emission computed tomography) radiopharmaceutical based on PSMA (68Ga-PSMA-11, 18F-PSMA-1007), PET-CT (positron emission computed tomography/computed tomography) has shown new potential for early diagnosis and accurate staging of prostate cancer patients. This review mainly summarizes the research progress of urea-containing PSMA PET imaging agents and finds that they have defects such as uptake in non-target tissues like the kidneys, lacrimal glands, and salivary glands. Thus, further optimizing their structure to reduce the uptake in non-target tissues, providing provide convenience for the labeling of therapeutic radiopharmaceuticals, thereby achieving the goal of integrated diagnosis and treatment, is an important development direction in this field.

ObjectiveTo explore the effectiveness of feedforward control mode on improving occupational burnout among operating room nurses through theoretical research and clinical practice, with a view to promoting their physical and mental health and enhancing the quality of surgical nursing. MethodsA total of 440 operating room nurses from different regions, scales, and nursing experiences in Shaanxi Province from November 2023 to December 2023 were randomly divided into an experimental group and a control group, with 220 nurses in each group. While the control group received routine intervention measures, the experimental group introduced a feedforward control mode based on the control group, with “emotional exhaustion,” “depersonalization,”and“personal achievement” as observation indicators. ResultsThe incidence of occupational burnout in the experimental group was 11.4%, while that in the control group was 20.0%. The experimental group showed a significantly lower incidence than the control group (P=0.013). ConclusionThe feedforward control mode can significantly alleviate nurses’ sense of job burnout, promote the improvement of surgical nursing quality, as well as continuously improve the scientific rigor, advancement, and humanistic nature of nursing services, which is conducive to building a harmonious and efficient nursing team. The spirit of teamwork, reflected in mutual support, mutual trust, and joint efforts for surgical success and patient health, has become an important component of nurses’ professional ethics.

Objective:To investigate the clinical manifestations, long-term survival, and prognosis of childhood T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL).Methods:Case summary.The clinical data of 43 T-ALL children who were diagnosed and treated in Children′s Hospital Affiliated to Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine from January 2010 to December 2021 were retrospectively analyzed.They were stratified for treatment according to the CCCG-ALL regimen, and the correlation of prognosis with the condition at initial diagnosis, early treatment response, and induced remission was analyzed.The Kaplan-Meier survival curve was used to analyze the survival rate, and the survival rates were compared between groups by the Log-rank test.The multivariate Cox regression model was used to analyze the impact of multiple factors on the long-term survival of children.Results:T-ALL patients accounted for 9.5% (43/451) of the total number of acute lymphoblastic leukemia patients admitted to the hospital at the same period.The median onset age of the 43 T-ALL patients was 7 years (1-13 years).Of the 43 patients included, 14 patients (32.6%) had concomitant mediastinal widening, 8 patients (18.6%) had concomitant giant mediastinal masses, and 4 patients (9.3%) had early precursor T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ETP-ALL) at initial diagnosis.These 43 children were treated according to the CCCG-ALL intermediate- and high-risk group regimen.Among them, 33 children (76.7%) achieved sustained remission, 5 children died, and 5 children had a relapse.As of September 30, 2024, the median follow-up time was 62 months (1-170 months), the 10-year event-free survival rate was (80.2±6.4)%, and the 10-year overall survival rate was (86.6±5.8)%.The median relapse time and 10-year cumulative relapse rate of the 5 relapsed children were 28 months (7-58 months) and (13.7±5.8)%, respectively.The relationship of prognosis with clinical characteristics at initial diagnosis and induced remission in 43 T-ALL children was analyzed.The results showed that patients aged ≥10 years, with a grade-1 non-central nervous system at initial diagnosis, ETP-ALL, abnormal chromosome number and structure, non-M1 status of bone marrow and minimal residual disease (MRD)≥ 1% on day 19 of induction treatment, and MRD ≥ 0.01% on day 46 to 55 of induction treatment had poorer long-term survival(all P<0.05).The multivariate analysis showed that age ≥10 years, ETP-ALL, and abnormal chromosome number and structure were risk factors of poor prognosis ( P=0.045, 0.030, 0.021). Conclusions:The CCCG-ALL regimen has a good overall therapeutic effect in children with T-ALL.Age ≥10 years, abnormal chromosome number and structure, ETP-ALL, grade-1 non-central nervous system at initial diagnosis, and early remission are risk factors of poor prognosis.Treatment after relapse in children with T-ALL is difficult.
