Cardiovascular damage caused by cancer treatment has become an important cause of death for tumor survivors. With the recognition of cardiovascular diseases and cancer therapy-related cardiovascular toxicity (CTR-CVT) in tumor patients, noninvasive imaging technologies play pivotal roles in the risk stratification, early diagnosis, monitoring and follow-up for CTR-CVT. In recent years, the field of cardio-oncology has witnessed continual updates in diagnostic and therapeutic strategies, with several pertinent guidelines and expert consensus documents issued in China and abroad. However, there remains a conspicuous absence of systematic guidance documents on the application of imaging techniques in the clinical practice of cardio-oncology. Therefore, the Chinese Anti-Cancer Association Society of Integrative Cardio-oncology, the Ultrasound Branch of the Chinese Medical Association, and the Chinese Society of Echocardiography convened experts to formulate the "Chinese guideline for the clinical application of noninvasive imaging technology in accessing cancer therapy-related cardiovascular toxicity". Building upon the systematic evaluation of guidelines and the latest evidence-based medical research in the field of cardio-oncology domestically and abroad, and in conjunction with data derived from evidence-based medical research in China, this guideline proposes noninvasive imaging examination methods and monitoring strategies for CTR-CVT, aiming to further standardize and guide the clinical practice of multidisciplinary physicians specializing in cardio-oncology in China.

Parkinson's disease(PD)is the second most prevalent neurodegenerative disease and a major cause of movement disorders.Neuroinflammation plays an important role in the pathogenesis of PD.Icilin is a small molecule compound that has been reported to inhibit inflammation.Howev-er,its role in PD has not been reported.This study explored the effects of icilin on motor behavior,nerve damage,microglia activation,and neuroinflammation in MPTP-induced PD Meriones unguic-ulatus by behavioral experiments,immunohistochemistry,Western blot,and fluorescence quantifi-cation.The results showed that Icilin not only ameliorated motor dysfunction and neurological damage in MPTP-induced Meriones unguiculatus,but also inhibited microglia hyperactivation and its mediated neuroinflammation.The present study provides an evidence that icilin attenuates MPTP-induced neurodegenerative lesions in long-pawed gerbils,suggesting that it is a promising candidate for PD.

Objective:This study aims to analyze the influence factors of lower urinary tract symptoms(LUTS)in patients re-ceiving radical prostatectomy for prostate cancer,and to explore effective nursing strategy in order to provide a theoretical basis for im-proving the postoperative quality of life of patients.Methods:A retrospective study was conducted on 103 elderly male patients who underwent radical prostatectomy for prostate cancer in the Department of Urology at General Hospital of Eastern Theater Command from August 2022 to August 2024.The patients were categorized into two groups based on whether LUTS occurred.Demographic and clinical characteristics,perioperative parameters,follow-up data,and participation in pelvic floor muscle training were analyzed to identify risk factors associated with postoperative LUTS.Results:The incidence of postoperative LUTS in the patients with LUTS before the oper-ation was significantly higher than that in the patients without LUTS before the operation(68.42％vs 32.61％,P=0.001).Addition-ally,the use of larger catheters(22F)was closely associated with an increased incidence of postoperative LUTS(P＜0.01).Pelvic floor exercises demonstrated a significant protective effect,with patients who engaged in pelvic floor exercises exhibiting a lower inci-dence of postoperative LUTS(38.60％vs 60.87％,P=0.040).Regression analysis further revealed that pelvic floor exercises was the protective factor for postoperative LUTS(OR=0.215,95％CI:0.091-0.508,P＜0.01).Conclusion:Preoperative LUTS and catheter size are significant risk factors for the occurrence of postoperative LUTS following radical prostatectomy.Pelvic floor mus-cle exercise after surgery has a protective effect.Postoperative personalized nursing interventions are necessary for different patients to achieve optimal recovery outcomes.

Objective:To investigate the influencing factors of pathological positive surgical margins(PSM)after radical resec-tion of prostate cancer.Methods:The clinical data of 407 patients who underwent radical resection of prostate cancer in our hospital from 2011 to 2020 were retrospectively analyzed.And the patients were divided into two groups according to postoperative pathological results.Single factor analysis was used to evaluate the differences in postoperative Gleason score,preoperative total prostate-specific antigen(tPSA),preoperative serum free prostate-specific antigen to preoperative tPSA ratio(fPSA/tPSA),clinical stage,postopera-tive pathological stage,operation method,age,body mass index(BMI),diameter and volume of prostate tumor.Multivariate logistic regression was used to determine the independent risk factor of PSM.Results:Among 407 patients with prostate cancer,179 cases(43.98％)were positive.Univariate analysis showed that there were significant differences in postoperative Gleason score,preopera-tive tPSA,clinical stage and postoperative pathological stage between the two groups(P＜0.05).And Gleason score,preoperative tPSA and pathologic stage were independent risk factors for PSM.Conclusion:There are relationships between PSM and post opera-tive Gleason score,tPSA,clinical T stage,postoperative pathologic pT stage.Among them,postoperative Gleason score(Gleason=7 points,Gleason≥8 points),preoperative total prostate-specific antigen(tPSA＞20 μg/L),and postoperative pathologic pT stage(pT3a,pT3b)were independent risk factors for positive pathological margins of prostate cancer.

Objective:To explore the clinical manifestations,diagnosis,pathological features and treatment of small-cell carci-noma of the prostate(SCCP).Methods:We conducted a retrospective analysis of the clinical and pathological data of 2 cases of confirmed SCCP treated from November 2017 to March 2018,and reviewed relevant literature.Results:Both the patients had the symptoms of frequent,urgent and difficult urination,with an elevated level of PSA and grades Ⅱ-Ⅲ enlargement of the prostate at palpation.One underwent prostate puncture biopsy and the other received transurethral 1470 laser vaporization resection of the tumor.Postoperative pathology indicated prostate adenocarcinoma accompanied by SCCP in both of the cases.One of them was treated by eto-poside-platinum(EP)chemotherapy and died of systemic multiple organ failure 20 months after diagnosis,while the other underwent endocrine therapy and has lived with tumor up to the present day.Conclusion:The incidence rate of SCCP is low,its malignancy is high,and its prognosis is poor.The average survival of the patient is about 7 to 10 months after diagnosis.Currently there is no effec-tive management of the dissease,except by relying on the experience of the treatment of small-cell lung cancer,with chemotherapy as the main option.

Objective:To evaluate the efficiency of the four domestic language models,ERNIE Bot,ChatGLM2,Spark Desk and Qwen-14B-Chat,all with a massive user base and significant social attention,in response to consultations about PCa-related perio-perative nursing and health education.Methods:We designed a questionnaire that includes 15 questions commonly concerned by patients undergoing radical prostatectomy and 2 common nursing cases,and inputted the questions into each of the four language models for simulation consultation.Three nursing experts assessed the model responses based on a pre-designed Likert 5-point scale in terms of accuracy,comprehensiveness,understandability,humanistic care,and case analysis.We evaluated and compared the performance of the four models using visualization tools and statistical analyses.Results:All the models generated high-quality texts with no mis-leading information and exhibited satisfactory performance.Qwen-14B-Chat scored the highest in all aspects and showed relatively sta-ble outputs in multiple tests compared with ChatGLM2.Spark Desk performed well in terms of understandability but lacked comprehen-siveness and humanistic care.Both Qwen-14B-Chat and ChatGLM2 demonstrated excellent performance in case analysis.The overall performance of ERNIE Bot was slightly inferior.All things considered,Qwen-14B-Chat was superior to the other three models in con-sultations about PCa-related perioperative nursing and health education.Conclusion:In PCa-related perioperative nursing,large language models represented by Qwen-14B-Chat are expected to become powerful auxiliary tools to provide patients with more medical expertise and information support,so as to improve the patient compliance and the quality of clinical treatment and nursing.

Objective:To explore the effect of the"internet+health education system"in nursing care after stapler circumci-sion.Methods:A total of 260 patients underwent stapler circumcision in the Outpatient Department of our hospital from January 2022 to July 2022,of whom 130 received routine nursing after operation(the control group),and the other 130 internet+medical nursing service based on the internet+health education system(the experimental group).We followed up the patients on the 1st,3rd,7th and 30th day after surgery,recorded their Visual Analogue Scale(VAS)scores within 24 hours postoperatively,their satisfac-tion scores with surgery and nursing,the incidence of complications and falloff of the stapler nails,and compared them between the two groups.Results:The postoperative VAS scores of the patients and the incidences of postoperative edema,bleeding,infection and other complications were significantly lower(P<0.05),the falloff of the stapler nails markedly sooner,and the patients'satisfaction scores with surgery and nursing service remarkably higher(P<0.05)in the experimental than in the control group(P<0.05).Conclusion:The application of the internet+health education system in nursing care after stapler circumcision can impart relevant knowledge to the patients,enhance their self-care ability,effectively reduce postoperative complications,and improve the patients'sat-isfaction with surgery and nursing service.
