Lung cancer constitutes the most prevalent and lethal malignant tumor in China. Approximately 85% of lung cancer diagnoses correspond to the non-small cell histological subtype [non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC)]. Despite surgery being the mainstay for early-stage disease, postoperative recurrence remains high and adjuvant chemotherapy offers limited benefit. In recent years, targeted therapy has demonstrated substantial advantages in driver mutation-positive NSCLC. To this end, the Lung Cancer Medical Education Committee of the Chinese Medical Education Association developed guidelines based on a systematic review of evidence through November 2025, using the Grading of Recommendations, Assessment, Development and Evaluations (GRADE) approach and a modified Delphi method. Focusing on epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) and anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK), and addressing ROS proto-oncogene 1 (ROS1), B-Raf proto-oncogene serine/threonine kinase (BRAF) V600E mutation, and mesenchymal-epithelial transition factor (MET) exon 14 (METex14) skipping, the guideline covers molecular testing, neoadjuvant/adjuvant therapy, perioperative strategies, minimal residual disease monitoring, and postoperative surveillance. It defines testing requirements, specifies stage-directed and subtype-specific treatments, and standardizes minimal residual disease monitoring. These recommendations emphasize precision and feasibility to improve survival and quality of life.

OBJECTIVE: To review the research progress of pathological changes of glenohumeral capsule in patients with recurrent shoulder anterior dislocation (RSAD). METHODS: The literature on shoulder capsules, both domestic and international, was reviewed. The anatomy, histology, and molecular biology characteristics of the glenohumeral capsule in RSAD patients were summarized. RESULTS: Anatomically, the glenohumeral capsule is composed of four distinct parts: the upper, lower, anterior, and posterior sections. The thickness of these sections is uneven, and the stability of the capsule is further enhanced by the presence of the glenohumeral and coracohumeral ligaments. Histologically, the capsule tissue undergoes adaptive changes following RSAD, which improve its ability to withstand stretching and deformation. In the realm of molecular biology, genes associated with the regulation of structure formation, function, and extracellular matrix homeostasis of the shoulder capsule's collagen fibers exhibit varying degrees of expression changes. Specifically, the up-regulation of transforming growth factor β ₁ (TGF-β ₁), TGF-β receptor 1, lysyl oxidase, and procollagen-lysine, 2-oxoglutarate 5-dioxygenase 1 facilitates the repair of the joint capsule, thereby contributing to the maintenance of shoulder joint stability. Conversely, the up-regulation of collagen type Ⅰ alpha 1 (COL1A1), COL3A1, and COL5A1 is linked to the recurrence of shoulder anterior dislocation, as these changes reflect the joint capsule's response to dislocation. Additionally, the expressions of tenascin C and fibronectin 1 may play a role in the pathological processes occurring during the early stages of RSAD. CONCLUSION Glenohumeral capsular laxity is both a consequence of RSAD and a significant factor contributing to its recurrence. While numerous studies have documented alterations in the shoulder capsule following RSAD, further research is necessary to confirm the specific pathological anatomy, histological, and molecular biological changes involved.

This report described one human leukocyte antigen pre-sensitized recipient undergoing preoperative plasmapheresis (PP), intravenous immunoglobulins (IVIG) desensitization and immune induction therapy before kidney transplantation with a donor kidney. Early postoperative clinical diagnosis was acute antibody-mediated rejection (AMR). A marked elevation of donor-specific antibodies (DSA) was accompanied by a decline of renal function. PP/IVIG dosing failed to lower the level of DSA. After low-dose splenic irradiation, DSA level dropped steadily and transplanted kidney function normalized. Thus adjuvant low-dose splenic irradiation may eliminate DSA immediately without a rebound.

Objective:To explore the efficacy and safety of daratumumab in late antibody-mediated rejection (late AMR) after kidney transplantation (KT).Methods:From December 2020 to December 2021, the relevant clinical data were reviewed for 8 patients with late AMR after receiving daratumumab at Affiliated Tongji Hospital. In intensive phase, the combination of plasma exchange (PP)/intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) and daratumumab were dosed once a week; in maintenance phase, once every 2 to 4 weeks. The levels of donor-specific antibody (DSA) and renal function were compared pre-treatment and Month 3/12 post-treatment. The treatment-related toxicities were observed. Independent sample T test was utilized for inter-group comparison.Results:The median treatment course during intensive period was 9(4-17) sessions. Maintenance treatment lasted for 5 to 19 months and 2 cases withdrew after 5 to 6 treatments for achieving antibody clearance. A total of 11 DSAs were detected in 8 recipients. At Month 3/12, mean fluorescent intensity (MFI) of DSA was 6 016±4 775 and 6 438±3 668. Both were significantly lower than 11 944±5 237 pre-treatment and the difference was statistically significant ( P=0.012, 0.004). Seven recipients achieved stable renal function during treatment and one recipient resumed hemodialysis at Month 18 due to acute rejection. Glomerular filtration rate of 7 recipients was (40.6±20.1), (53.6±20.9) and (49.0±17.2) ml·min -1· (1.73 m 2) -1 pre-treatment and Month 3/12 and no significant differences existed among different timepoints. During follow-ups, 2 cases developed mild nasal congestion during an early stage of daratumumab infusion while the remainders had no obvious discomfort during infusion and tolerance was decent. Conclusion:Early combination of daratumumab with PP/IVIG, followed by a course of daratumumab has demonstrated an excellent antibody reduction effect on late AMR. During treatment, renal function remains generally stable.

Objective:To summarize the incidence of acute rejection (AR) after pediatric kidney transplantation (KT) at a single center and examine its impact on graft/patient survival and risk factors for AR.Methods:This is a retrospective cohort study including pediatric recipients who underwent kidney transplantation in past 8 years.After excluding recipients of graft thrombosis within a week post-transplant and lost to follow-ups, a total of 143 cases were ultimately recruited and assigned into two groups of AR (n=29) and non-AR (n=114).Basic profiles of both donors and recipients and graft/patient survival rate were compared between two groups.Relative risk factors for AR episodes were also examined by Logistic regression.Results:Renal grafts for 130/143 cases (90.9%) were harvested from deceased donors and 120(83.9%) cases from children.Twenty-seven transplants (18.9%) were performed in infants and young recipients aged < 3 years.During a median follow-up of 33 months, 34 AR episodes occurred in 29(20.3%) patients.Rate of re-transplantation (27.6% vs. 7.9%), pediatric donor (96.5% vs. 80.7%) and rabbit anti-human thymocyte globulin (rATG) induction (79.3% vs. 36%) were significantly higher in AR group than non-AR group ( P=0.007, P=0.046, P<0.001).Multivariate regression analysis indicated that basiliximab induction caused a significant reduction in the risk of AR incidence as compared with rATG induction (odds ratio 0.13, 95% confidence interval 0.04-0.43, P<0.001).The median time of AR incidence was 1.3 months post-transplantation and 23 episodes (67.6%) were confirmed by biopsy.After anti-rejection treatment, 52.9%(n=18) of the cases achieved a full recovery and 38.3% (n=13) had improved graft function.However, 3 cases (8.8%) developed irreversible graft failure.The 1/3-year graft survival rates were significantly lower in AR group than those in non-AR group (75.3% vs. 95.2%, 68.4% vs. 90.4%, P=0.01), and there was no significant difference in 1-and 3-year patient survival rates between two groups. Conclusions:The incidence of AR is relatively high in pediatric renal transplantation, which has an impact on graft survival.Basiliximab induction can effectively reduce the risk of AR.

Objective:To summarize the clinical characteristics and treatment of cytomegalovirus(CMV)infection in pediatric kidney transplant patients.Methods:From May 2014 to July 2021, a total of 9 cases(8.65%)of 104 pediatric kidney transplant recipients were diagnosed with CMV infection in our centre.Retrospective data was collected for these 9 paediatric recipients.The clinical characteristics of the disease, treatment data and outcomes were summarized.Results:The median age of the 9 children was 10 years(0.25-15 years), 6 of whom were treated with polyclonal antibody for immunity induction.CMV IgG was negative in 4 children before renal transplantation.Only one patient received anti-CMV prophylaxis.The median time from transplant to the diagnosis of CMV infection was 22(7-15)days.Among the 9 children, 7 had fever, pneumonia and diarrhea, 2 had no typical symptoms, three patients were complicated with viral, bacterial or fungal infections.Acute rejection occurred in 3 patients at the same time as CMV infection or after CMV DNA turned negative.Nine patients were cured and discharged after ganciclovir or valganciclovir treatment.Median time of CMV DNA negative transformation was 32(17-90)days.Conclusions:Pediatric transplant recipients are at particularly elevated risk of CMV disease.Antiviral prophylaxis should be initiated early after transplantation.

Objective:To summarize the clinical characteristics and therapeutic drug selection of post-transplantation diabetes mellitus(PTDM)after kidney transplantation in children.Methods:From May 2014 to March 2021, a total of 5 cases(5.38%)of 93 paediatric kidney transplant recipients with a median follow-up period of 34 months were diagnosed with PTDM in our centre.Retrospective data analysis was performed for these 5 paediatric recipients.The characteristics of the disease, treatment data and outcomes were summarized.Among the five paediatric recipients, one was male and four patients were female, ranging the age from 12 to 17 years.All recipients received a tacrolimus-based immunosuppressive regimen with prednisone discontinued no later than 3 months after kidney transplant.Results:The onset of PTDM ranged from 1 month to 46 months(median: 17 months)after transplantation.The blood glucose of two children returned to normal gradually after tacrolimus conversion to cyclosporine, with one of them was given insulin temporarily.Three children received oral hypoglycaemic agents, including one received acarbose, one received metformin, and one received metformin combined with acarbose.After a median follow-up of 6 months, the levels of blood glucose in five children were stable, and there was no significant change in serum creatinine and urine protein.Conclusions:The treatment of PTDM in children should be individualized with considering of age, gender and immunosuppressive regimen. Switch from tacrolimus to cyclosporine is effective. Metformin or other hypoglycemic agentsis helpful when tacrolimus is maintained.

Objective:To explore the efficacy and safety of a novel Tripterygium preparation (Kunxian Capsules)in kidney transplant recipients developing refractory proteinuria after transplantation.Methods:A total of 59 kidney transplant recipients received regular follow-ups from August 2018 to July 2021.Severity of proteinuria, kidney graft function and adverse effects were retrospectively recorded before and at Month 1/2/3/6 months after Kunxian treatment.They were divided into two groups of effective and void to explore the potential effect-related factors.Results:Six-month treatment was completed in 57 patients except for 2 cases of discontinued treatment due to severe adverse effects.A significant reduction in amount of proteinuria was observed at Month 1 [1.09(0.42, 2.59 g/24 h)vs 1.82(1, 2.7 g/24 h, P<0.01)]and the trend continued during subsequent follow-ups.Twenty-nine patients(50.9%)responded remarkably.Eighteen patients(31.6%)showed no response.The overall effective rate was 68.4%.Inter-group comparison revealed strong correlations between treatment efficacy and baseline serum creatinine levels, early initiation of treatment and symptom duration from onset to treatment.Kidney graft IgA nephropathy demonstrated the highest effective rate(11/13, 84.6%). Furthermore, elevated blood concentration of tacrolimus hinted at a potential drug interaction. Conclusions:Kunxian Capsules is efficacious and safe for renal transplant recipients developing moderate-severe proteinuria and not responding to traditional medications.Early initiation of treatment before graft function decline is recommended.Reducing tacrolimus dose cautiously in advance and monitoring adverse events are also essential.

Objective    To compare the 5-year survival rates between two different follow-up patterns of postoperative stage Ⅰ-ⅢA non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients. Methods    Pathological stage Ⅰ-ⅢA NSCLC 11 958 patients who underwent surgical resection and received follow-up within 6 months after initial diagnosis through telephone follow-up system were included in nine hospitals from July 2014 to July 2020. The patients were divided into two groups including a proactive follow-up group (n=3 825) and a passive follow-up group (n=8 133) according to the way of following-up. There were 6 939 males and 5 019 females aged 59.8±9.5 years. The Kaplan-Meier and Cox proportional hazards regression model were used. Results    The median follow-up frequency was 8.0 times in the proactive follow-up group and 7.0 times in the passive follow-up group. The median call duration was 3.77 minutes in the proactive follow-up group and 3.58 minutes in the passive follow-up group. The 5-year survival rate was 81.8% and 74.2% (HR=0.60, 95CI 0.53-0.67, P<0.001) in the proactive follow-up group and the passive follow-up group, respectively. Multivariate analysis showed that follow-up pattern, age, gender and operation mode were independent prognostic factors, and the results were consistent in all subgroups stratified by clinical stages. Conclusion    The proactive follow-up leads to better overall survival for resected stage Ⅰ-ⅢA NSCLC patients, especially in the stage ⅢA.

At present, there are many problems in the nail-fold microcirculation detection devices, such as huge structure, inconvenience to carry. In addition, due to the patient's body shaking, the video is difficult to keep stable in collecting with the device, which brings great difficulties to the doctor's observation. We develop a small image acquisition device for nail-fold microcirculation based on the principle of SDF imaging principle and liquid lenses technology. An annular lighting device is fixed in front of the optical system, and the overall design of the system is based on the characteristics of human fingers. The device is small, easy to carry and conform to the fingertips. It can focus quickly through a controller. It can also achieve high quality images of the nail-fold microcirculation. This study can promote the usage of nail-fold microcirculation device at the bedside. It's an efficient tool for medical workers to observe the microcirculation of patients.
