This paper summarizes Professor WANG Xixing's clinical experience in treating immune checkpoint inhibitor-related pneumonitis （CIP） based on the theory of "cough attributed to the five zang （脏） organs". Cough is a common predominant symptom of CIP. According to the theory of "cough attributed to the five zang organs"， drug toxicity triggers cancer toxin， leading to disharmony among the five zang organs， and then lung failing to diffuse and govern descent as the core pathogenesis. Therefore， treatment should focus on harmonizing the five zang organs to restore the normal function of lung qi to diffuse and govern descent. In clinical practice， CIP can be classified into four syndrome patterns， including lung yin depletion， deficiency of both the lung and the spleen with phlegm-dampness， liver fire harassing the lung， and lung-kidney yin deficiency. Correspondingly， Chaimai Jinluo Runfei Decoction （柴麦金络润肺汤） is used to nourish yin and moisten the lung； Qigui Peitu Huayin Decoction （芪桂培土化饮汤） is used to fortify the spleen and tonify the lung， resolve dampness and dispel phlegm； Chaidan Shuyu Runjin Decoction （柴丹疏郁润金汤） is used to drain liver and clear the lung； and Dimai Jinshui Xiangsheng Decoction （地脉金水相生汤） is used to nourish the kidney and moisten the lung.

Non-small cell lung cancer(NSCLC)is one of the most common and deadly malignant tumors worldwide,with surgical resection being the primary treatment for early-stage NSCLC.Tumor spread through air spaces(STAS)is a novel pattern of tumor dissemination into the air spaces in the lung.Its occurrence after sublobar resection is closely associated with recurrence and distant metastasis,making its con-sideration a vital factor in surgical strategy selection and prognostic evaluation.Patients with STAS-positive status exhibit significantly higher postoperative recurrence rates than do STAS-negative patients,with molecular mechanisms involving tumor microenvironment remodeling,specific genetic mutations,and epithelial-mesenchymal transition(EMT).Imaging techniques including computed tomography(CT)and positron emission tomography/CT have shown potential for preoperative STAS prediction,although their accuracy and practicality require improvement.This paper reviews the definition,pathological characteristics,and related mechanisms of STAS,with a focus on surgical ap-proach selection for STAS-positive patients and its role in cancer recurrence after sublobar resection of early-stage NSCLC.Future research directions include optimization of preoperative diagnostic methods for STAS,exploration of molecular targeted therapies,and development of imaging-based precision prediction models.

Objective To investigate the effect and potential mechanism of rat mesenchymal stem cells(MSC)on D-galactose-induced brain-tissue aging.Methods A rat brain-aging model was established by injecting D-galactose,and rats in the treatment group received MSC injections via the tail vein.Superoxide dismutase(SOD)activity and malondialdehyde(MDA)levels were assessed in rat brain tissue at the end of the experiment,and pathological changes in brain tissue were observed by hematoxylin-eosin(HE)staining.Expression levels of the inflammatory factors interleukin(IL)-1 and IL-6,the pathway proteins brain-derived neurotrophic factor(BDNF)-tropomyosin receptor kinase B(TrkB),the negative growth regulators p53 and p16,as well as vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF)and basic fibroblast growth factor(bFGF)were observed by polymerase chain reaction(PCR)and Western Blot.Results Brain levels of SOD activity were significantly increased and MDA levels were significantly decreased in rats in the modle group compared with the treatment group(P＜0.05).The pathological state of the cerebral cortex and hippocampus were improved and the number of neurons and nucleus pulposus ratio in the brain were increased in the treatment group,as shown by HE staining.Expression levels of IL-1,IL-6,p53,and p16 were significantly decreased,while BDNF,TrkB,VEGF,and bFGF were significantly increased in the treatment group compared with the model group,as shown by PCR and Western Blot(P＜0.05).Conclusions These result suggest that MSCs potentially mitigate D-galactose-induced cerebral senescence by concurrently modulating the BDNF-TrkB axis to attenuate oxidative/inflammatory damage,while enhancing the secretion of vasculotrophic(VEGF)and neurotrophic(bFGF)factors for neuronal maintenance.

Objective: To analyze the change trends in the body shape indicators and proportions of students in Harbin from 2010 to 2024, and to investigate ergonomic compatibility of functional dimensions of school desks and chairs with current student shape indicators, so as to provide a reference for revising furniture standards of desks and chairs. Methods: Between September and November of both 2010 and 2024, a combination of convenience sampling and stratified cluster random sampling was conducted across three districts in Harbin, yielding samples of 6 590 and 6 252 students, respectively. Anthropometric shape indicators cluding height, sitting height, crus length, and thigh length-and their proportional changes were compared over the 15-year period. The 2024 data were compared with current standard functional dimensions of school furniture. The statistical analysis incorporated t-test and Mann-Whitney U- test. Results: From 2010 to 2024, average height increased by 1.8 cm for boys and 1.5 cm for girls; sitting height increased by 1.5 cm for both genders; crus length increased by 0.3 cm for boys and 0.4 cm for girls; and thigh length increased by 0.5 cm for both genders. The ratios of sitting height to height, and sitting height to leg length increased by less than 0.1 . The difference between desk chair height and 1/3 sitting height ranged from 0.4-0.8 cm. Among students matched with size 0 desks and chairs, 22.0% had a desk to chair height difference less than 0, indicating that the desk to chair height difference might be insufficient for taller students. The differences between seat height and fibular height ranged from -1.4 to 1.1 cm; and the differences between seat depth and buttock popliteal length ranged from -9.8 to 3.4 cm. Among obese students, the differences between seat width and 1/2 hip circumference ranged from -20.5 to -8.7 cm, while it ranged from -12.2 to -3.8 cm among non obese students. Conclusion Current furniture standards basically satisfy hygienic requirements; however, in the case of exceptionally tall and obese students, ergonomic accommodations such as adaptive seating allocation or personalized adjustments are recommended to meet hygienic requirements.

OBJECTIVE To explore the early detection of large vestibular aqueduct syndrome(LVAS)in children by applying several audiological indicators.METHODS Ninety-two children with hearing loss(aged 1-70 months)were enrolled and divided into an LVAS group(45 cases)and a control group(47 cases).Eleven audiological indicators were statistically analyzed:lateral of hearing loss,the degree of hearing loss,configuration of hearing loss;ABR air-conduction threshold;ABR air-bone gap;ASSR average threshold;ASSR thresholds at 0.5,1,2,and 4 kHz;and tympanogram type.Indicators showing significant two-group differences were used to construct a visualized multifactorial linear prediction model using the R language.RESULTS Nine indicators demonstrated statistically significant differences between groups(P<0.05):laterality,configuration of hearing loss,ABR air-conduction threshold,ASSR average threshold,ASSR thresholds at all frequencies(0.5,1,2,4 kHz),and tympanogram type.A prediction model was established.When the total model score ranged between 200 and 240 points,the predicted LVAS risk probability was 0.1 to 0.99.The consistency index(C-index)was 0.85,indicating good predictive ability of the model.CONCLUSION The identified nine audiological indicators are valuable for the early detection of LVAS in children.The developed model can estimate LVAS risk.After refinement,this model holds potential to support early clinical diagnosis and intervention.

Objective To explore the application of standardized teaching mode in clinical teaching for B-type ultrasound-guided peripherally inserted central catheters(PICC),and to discuss its influence on the teaching quality,comprehensive skills and student satisfaction.Methods A total of 74 nurses,who learned B-type ultrasound-guided PICC operation at the Department of Emergency of a certain grade Ⅲ-A hospital in Guangzhou City of China from September 2021 to September 2023,were randomly divided into the study group and the control group with 37 nurses in each group.The teaching content of both groups was B-type ultrasound-guided PICC operation.The conventional teaching method was adopted for the control group,while on the basis of the conventional teaching method,additional standardized teaching mode was carried out for the study group.Teaching and training lasted for 3 months.The management indicators,teaching quality,comprehensive skills and student satisfaction with teaching were compared between the two groups.Results Compared with the control group,in the study group the catheterization time was shorter,the pain score was lower,and the success rate of single puncturing was higher(all P＜0.05).The results of final theory examination,case analysis ability,and clinical actual operation score(including the indications,puncturing method,and puncturing technique of B-type ultrasound-guided PICC)in the study group were significantly better than those in the control group(all P＜0.05).The comprehensive skills were remarkably improved in both groups.The scores of doctor-patient communication,physical examination,medical ethics,operation process in the study group were obviously higher than those in the control group(all P＜0.05).Moreover,the expression ability,the sense of team cooperation,the ability to search and read literature,the ability of clinical practice,the degree of knowledge mastery,the ability to analyze and solve problems,and the learning initiative in the study group were prominently better than those in the control group(all P＜0.05).Conclusion In clinical teaching for B-type ultrasound-guided PICC operation,the implement of standardized teaching mode can help to improve the quality of teaching and improve the nurse s comprehensive skills of PICC operation with higher degree of satisfaction with teaching,therefore,this kind of teaching mode is worth popularizing and applying.

This article presents a case of acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) in a pregnant woman caused by coronary artery dissection. The 41-year-old patient had undergone cardiac valve surgery at the age of 1 and had no risk factors such as hypertension, diabetes, smoking, alcohol use, or a family history of coronary artery disease. At 31 +1 weeks of gestation, she experienced sudden chest pain for 4 hours and was emergently referred to Peking University First Hospital on June 1, 2021. Electrocardiogram revealed ST-segment elevation in leads I, aVL, and V 2 to V 6. Biochemical assays showed elevated levels of high-sensitivity cardiac troponin I and creatine kinase-MB. Echocardiography indicated segmental ventricular wall motion abnormalities (apical) and reduced left ventricular function, confirming the diagnosis of acute anterior wall STEMI. The patient promptly underwent emergency coronary angiography and percutaneous coronary intervention and confirmed coronary artery dissection. Postoperative care included antiplatelet, anticoagulation, and supportive treatment. At 34 +3 weeks of gestation, with the condition of acute anterior wall STEMI being relatively stable, a cesarean section was successfully performed. Regular cardiology follow-ups were scheduled postpartum, and cardiac function was normal in two years after discharge.
