Ferroptosis is a key driver of the onset and progression of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease （COPD）. By exploring the role of ferroptosis in COPD from the perspective of "qi deficiency with retention and stagnation"， it is considered that mitochondrial dysfunction and imbalanced antioxidant defenses are the microscopic manifestations of "qi deficiency"， whereas iron accumulation and lipid peroxide deposition constitute the pathological basis of "retention and stagnation". In traditional Chinese medicine （TCM）， the treatment principle is tonifying deficiency and benefiting qi， scattering retention and unblocking stagnation. Its mechanism involves improving the antioxidant system and mitochondrial function to enhance cellular resistance to ferroptosis， as well as relieving pulmonary iron overload， excessive lipid peroxidation， and inflammatory factor release to reduce the accumulation of pathological products， thereby exerting therapeutic effects on COPD.

Objective To explore the clinical value of modified HOOD technique in laparoscopic radical prostatectomy.Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on the perioperative data of 71 patients who underwent laparoscopic radical prostatectomy performed by the same surgical team during Jul.20,2022 and Dec.20,2024.The patients were divided into the observation group(n=28,modified HOOD resection)and conventional group(n=43,conventional resection).Results The observation group had better urinary continence,with higher immediate continence rate(20％vs.9.3％),shorter drainage tube removal time[4(3-6)d vs.6(3-9)d]and shorter hospital stay[6.5(4-13)d vs.9(5-11)d]compared with the conventional group.There were no statistically significant differences in operation time,intraoperative blood loss,and postoperative pathological staging between the two groups(P＞0.05).Conclusion The modified HOOD technique is safe and feasible in laparoscopic radical prostatectomy,which can effectively improve postoperative urinary continence,promote recovery,and enhance patients'quality of life.

The theory of"spleen and stomach deficiency and excess transformation"originates from Huangdi Neijing,which is based on the five elements theory.It systematically elucidates the physiological interconnections and pathological transmission relationships among spleen,stomach,and the five zang and six fu viscera.This theory was continuously developed and refined by later physicians.It was first systematically summarized and deepened by LI Dongyuan in his work Piwei Lun,which elaborates on the pathological transmission relationships of other zang-fu viscera after spleen and stomach deficiency.From the perspective of LI Dongyuan's theory of"spleen and stomach deficiency and excess transformation",this paper discusses the pathological relationships between spleen-earth,lung-metal,and kidney-water,and proposes that spleen-earth deficiency is the pathological basis for the onset of allergic rhinitis.Based on the pathological evolution following spleen-earth deficiency,the traditional Chinese medicine syndromes of allergic rhinitis were categorized into three types:earth deficiency with metal weakness,earth dryness with metal desiccation,and water cold with metal excess and earth decline.The treatment of allergic rhinitis should prioritize the spleen-earth,employing acrid and dispersing herbs with light properties to elevate the spleen,sweet-warm and sour-astringent herbs to tonify the spleen,and diuretic and dampness-resolving herbs to activate the spleen,thereby restoring spleen-earth function.Simultaneously,treatment should regulate lung-metal and kidney-water according to different pathological evolutions,incorporating cold-cool or acrid-warm herbs as appropriate,combining cold and warm properties,and treating both the manifestation and root cause of the disease.

In recent years,significant breakthroughs have been achieved in the immunotherapy for Alzheimer's disease.In line with global advancements,two anti-amyloid-β monoclonal antibodies have been approved and successfully launched in China for clinical use.Lecanemab and Donanemab were officially used in June 2024 and April 2025 in China,respectively.In order to standardize the rational and safe application of anti-amyloid-β monoclonal antibodies for Alzheimer's disease in China,this article integrates recom-mendations from the clinical trials and real-world experience from the author's team and domestic peers to further update the recom-mendations for the clinical use of anti-amyloid-β monoclonal antibody based on the 2024 version.It includes indications for therapy,pre-treatment evaluation and preparation,administration protocols and safety measures during treatment,and post-treatment monitor-ing strategies.

ObjectiveTo analyse the efficacy and mechanism of Guizhi Fulingwan in regulating sex hormone disorders in rats with benign prostatic hyperplasia （BPH）. MethodsThirty male SD rats were randomly divided into a sham group， a model group， a finasteride group （0.45 mg·kg^-1·d^-1）， and low-dose and high-dose groups of Guizhi Fulingwan （0.135， 0.337 5 g∙kg^-1∙d^-1）， with six in each group. The BPH model was prepared by subcutaneous injection of 3.5 mg∙kg^-1∙d^-1 testosterone propionate after debridement surgery in all groups except the sham group. The rats in the sham group and the model group were administered with an equal volume of saline by gavage， and the rest of the groups were administered with the corresponding medicinal solution by gavage for 35 days. Histopathology in rats was evaluated by prostate wet weight， volume， index， and hematoxylin-eosin （HE） staining. The serum sex hormone levels of testosterone （T）， dihydrotestosterone （DHT）， and estradiol （E₂） were determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. The protein expression of the androgen receptor （AR） was detected by immunohistochemistry. The serum metabolism profiles of rats in the sham group， the model group， and the high-dose group of Guizhi Fulingwan were compared by ultra-high performance liquid chromatography tandem Fourier transform mass spectrometry （UHPLCQ Exactive） to screen for metabolic markers and to obtain relevant metabolic pathways. ResultsCompared with those in the sham group， the wet weight， volume， index， serum sex hormone level， and AR protein expression of the prostate in the model group were all elevated （P<0.05， P<0.01）， and the histomorphology showed pathological changes. Compared with those in the model group， the wet weight， volume， index， serum sex hormone level， and AR protein expression of the prostate in the intervention groups showed a decreasing trend （P<0.05， P<0.01）， and histopathology was improved. Serum metabolomics analysis obtained a total of 40 metabolic markers related to the intervention effect of Guizhi Fulingwan， such as dehydrosafynol， hyoscyamine， and lumichrome， which were involved in the pathways of autophagy， riboflavin metabolism， and retrograde endocannabinoid signaling. ConclusionGuizhi Fulingwan can effectively regulate sex hormone disorders in BPH rats， and its mechanism may be related to autophagy， riboflavin metabolism， and retrograde endocannabinoid signaling.

OBJECTIVES: To evaluate the safety and efficacy of thiotepa (TT)-containing conditioning regimens for allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) in children with inborn errors of immunity (IEI). METHODS: Clinical data of 22 children with IEI who underwent HSCT were retrospectively reviewed. Survival after HSCT was estimated using the Kaplan-Meier method. RESULTS: Nine patients received a traditional conditioning regimen (fludarabine + busulfan + cyclophosphamide/etoposide) and underwent peripheral blood stem cell transplantation (PBSCT). Thirteen patients received a TT-containing modified conditioning regimen (TT + fludarabine + busulfan + cyclophosphamide), including seven PBSCT and six umbilical cord blood transplantation (UCBT) cases. Successful engraftment with complete donor chimerism was achieved in all patients. Acute graft-versus-host disease occurred in 12 patients (one with grade III and the remaining with grade I-II). Chronic graft-versus-host disease occurred in one patient. The incidence of EB viremia in UCBT patients was lower than that in PBSCT patients (P<0.05). Over a median follow-up of 36.0 months, one death occurred. The 3-year overall survival (OS) rate was 100% for the modified regimen and 88.9% ± 10.5% for the traditional regimen (P=0.229). When comparing transplantation types, the 3-year OS rates were 100% for UCBT and 93.8% ± 6.1% for PBSCT (P>0.05), and the 3-year event-free survival rates were 100% and 87.1% ± 8.6%, respectively (P>0.05). CONCLUSIONS TT-containing conditioning for allogeneic HSCT in children with IEI is safe and effective. Both UCBT and PBSCT may achieve high success rates.
