Objectives:To explore the predictive value of residual Murray's law-based quantitative flow ratio(μQFR)on long-term vessel-oriented composite endpoints(VoCE).Methods:This retrospective study included 3 510 patients from the FAVOR Ⅲ China trial.Offline residual μQFR analysis was performed on all vessels(diameter≥2.5 mm)with 50%-90%stenotic lesions.Patients were stratified into high-,intermediate-,and low-risk groups based on residual μQFR tertiles.The primary endpoint was 3-year VoCE,defined as a composite of cardiac death related to the target vessel,target vessel-related spontaneous myocardial infarction,and ischemia-driven target vessel revascularization.Results:Offline analysis was performed on 5 256 vessels from 3 510 patients.The mean residual μQFR was 0.92±0.75.The high-risk group(residual μQFR≤0.91)with 1 554 patients(1 958 vessels);the intermediate-risk group(residual μQFR 0.92-0.96)with 1 211 patients(1 906 vessels);and the low-risk group(residual μQFR>0.96)with 745 patients(1 392 vessels).Over 3-year follow-up,VoCE occurred in 227 vessels(4.3%).The 3-year VoCE incidence was significantly higher in the high-risk group compared to the intermediate-and low-risk groups(6.2%vs.4.1%vs.2.5%,log-rank P<0.001),primarily driven by ischemia-driven target vessel revascularization(5.0%vs.3.0%vs.1.6%,log-rank P<0.001).Hypertension(OR=0.83,95%CI:0.72-0.96),hypercholesterolemia(OR=0.84,95%CI:0.73-0.97),bifurcation lesions(OR=0.72,95%CI:0.63-0.83),moderate/severe calcification(OR=0.70,95%CI:0.57-0.84),and tandem lesions(OR=0.59,95%CI:0.47-0.75)were independent predictors of lower residual μQFR values.Conclusions:Lower residual μQFR is significantly associated with increased VoCE risk during the 3-year follow up period.

Objective To analyze the academic literature on sepsis-related microRNA(miRNA)at worldwide,and to dentify thematic hotspots and future research trends.Methods A bibliometric analysis was employed to retrieve the literature on sepsis-related miRNA published in the core collection of China National Knowledge Infrastructure(CNKI),and Web of Science(WOS)databases from January 1,2010,to January 1,2025,which met the article inclusion criteria,and used CiteSpace 6.3.1 software to perform the co-occurrence analysis of keywords,keyword emergence analysis,and cluster analysison;on the basis of these analyses,the keywords were sorted according to time to generate clustering time line figure to explore the current status and hotspot evolution process of sepsis-related miRNA.Results A total of 135 and 1 278 articles were retrieved from CNKI and the core collection of WOS databases,respectively.The frequency and centrality of keywords such as sepsis,prognosis,microRNA,acute lung injury,acute kidney injury,etc.were high in 135 documents in CNKI;in 1 278 documents in WOS core collection,the frequency and centrality of keywords such as expression,sepsis,inflammation,cells,micrornas,etc.were high;The top 10 keywords in the CNKI database in terms of burst intensity were:microRNA,inflammatory response,inflammatory factor,interleukin-10,tumor necrosis factor-α,acute respiratory distress syndrome,interleukin-35,septic shock,rat,tiny microRNA-155(miR-155);the top 10 keywords in the core collection of the WOS database in terms of burst intensity were:expression,NF-κB,microRNA,cells,induction,pathway,mechanisms,septic shock,mortality,cancer.Representative clustering tags in the CNKI are#0 prognosis,#1 miRNA,#2 septic shock;The representative clustering labels in the core collection of WOS database are#0 acute lung injury,#1 cancer,#2 septic shock,and so on.In CNKI and WOS core databases,the early keywords mainly revolve around the study of inflammatory factors and related mechanisms of sepsis,and the research center gradually shifts to the clinical physiological injuries as well as complications and mortality in the later stage,miRNA-126,AMP-activated protein kinase,interleukin-35 and other keywords have emerged.Among the top 10 most-cited English literature,researchers have paid particular attention to studying various miRNA as potential biomarkers of sepsis,including miR-146a,miR-223 and miR-146.Conclusions There are similarities and differences in the direction and hotspots of sepsis-related miRNA research in China and abroad.The research paradigm of sepsis has gradually shifted from the early clinical observation focusing on the overall complications and prognosis of patients to the basic research centered on the molecular mechanisms of inflammatory factors and signaling pathways.In this context,the study of miRNA as novel biomarkers for sepsis has been increasingly emphasized,and miRNA represent a promising direction for sepsis research,with potential applications both in basic research and clinical treatment.

Iodine is an indispensable trace element in the human body and its intake level is closely related to thyroid function. Iodine deficiency or iodine excess will lead to iodine-related diseases. The implementation of the universal salt iodization policy of China has achieved remarkable results, yet it is still facing the problems of iodine deficiency and iodine excess at present. Since iodine in the human body is mainly metabolized by the kidneys and excreted in urine, urinary iodine test has become an effective way to reflect the recent iodine nutrition status of the body. This article will discuss the current iodine nutrition status of the population in China, the hazards of iodine deficiency and iodine excess, as well as the clinical application of urinary iodine test.

With the improvement of diagnosis and treatment level, most breast cancer patients survive in a chronic state for a long time, and the issue of concomitant diseases of breast cancer (CDBC) has become increasingly prominent. All-round and full-cycle management of these comorbidities can help improve patients’ quality of life and prognosis. General practice, with its long-term, comprehensive and responsible health care that is person-centered, family-based, community-wide and oriented to the maintenance and promotion of overall health, presents new opportunities for the health management of CDBC. This article will explore the application of consultation-liaison general practice through the integrated general and specialist care in the comprehensive management of CDBC, aiming to raise people’s awareness of it and promote the development of consultation-liaison general practice and the management model of the "Internet plus general practitioner team" , which will surely contribute to the all-round management of concomitant diseases in breast cancer patients.

Parathyromegaly refers to chronic enlargement of the parathyroid glands caused by multiple etiological factors. Pathological conditions, such as hyperparathyroidism, parathyroid hyperfunction, parathyroid adenoma, parathyroid cysts, and parathyroid carcinoma may all lead to parathyromegaly. Notably, calcium intake insufficiency and/or vitamin D insufficiency (CVI), which is the predominant etiology of parathyromegaly, now has been recognized as a global public health challenge. Chronic CVI induces negative calcium balance and relative low serum calcium level, stimulating compensatory parathyroid hyperplasia and enlargement. This progression triggers parathyroid hyperfunction and secondary hyperparathyroidism, resulting in bone mass loss, height reduction, kyphosis, osteoporosis, pathological fractures, metastatic vascular calcification and systemic abnormal calcium migration and calcinosis (such as urolithiasis). During the early stages of parathyromegaly, the condition remains preventable and treatable; However, delayed intervention may lead to irreversible tertiary hyperparathyroidism. CVI-associated parathyromegaly exhibits high prevalence and heterogeneous clinical manifestations, representing a critically underrecognized clinical entity. This article will systematically discuss the etiology, pathological characteristics, clinical consequences, and prevention and control strategies for CVI-related parathyromegaly.

Patients with initially diagnosed breast cancer and uncontrolled hyperthyroidism are at high risk of perioperative thyroid crisis. This article reports two cases of early-stage breast cancer initially diagnosed concurrently with uncontrolled primary hyperthyroidism. In Case 1, the patient received neoadjuvant chemotherapy to control breast cancer progression while concurrently taking antithyroid drugs to manage hyperthyroidism. Hyperthyroidism was controlled during chemotherapy, and the patient successfully underwent surgery after neoadjuvant chemotherapy. Case 2 involved recurrent primary hyperthyroidism with leukopenia after antithyroid drug therapy. Since leukopenia is a relative contraindication for antithyroid drugs, the patient underwent radioactive iodine therapy (iodine-131) and endocrine therapy for one month before proceeding with breast cancer surgery. Through a literature review, this article analyzes preoperative management strategies for uncontrolled hyperthyroidism in initially diagnosed breast cancer patients, emphasizing the importance of normalizing thyroid function to prevent thyroid crisis and reduce perioperative risks.

Objective:This study aimed to evaluate the therapeutic efficacy of early bedside plasma adsorption (PA) combined with pulse high-volume hemofiltration (PHVHF) in patients with septic shock and acute kidney injury (AKI).Methods:A prospective randomized controlled trial was conducted, enrolling septic shock patients with AKI admitted to the intensive care unit of Linyi Central Hospital between January 2022 and January 2024. Participants were randomly assigned to either the Continuous Veno-Venous Hemofiltration (CVVH) group or the integrated treatment group (PHVHF+PA). Both groups received standard care following the 2021 Surviving Sepsis Campaign guidelines. Both groups received standard treatment according to the 2021 Surviving Sepsis Campaign guidelines. The CVVH group received standard CVVH, while the integrated therapy group underwent PHVHF [substitution fluid rate: 85 mL/(kg·h)] combined with PA. Organ function indices, hemodynamic parameters, inflammatory markers, critical illness scores before treatment, at 24 h and 72 h after treatment, and 28-day survival outcomes were monitored. Categorical data were analyzed using the χ2 test, continuous variables were compared with independent samples t-test, repeated-measures data were analyzed by ANOVA, and 28-day survival was evaluated using Kaplan-Meier curves.Results:A total of 56 septic shock patients with AKI were enrolled and randomly divided into CVVH group ( n=27) and integrated therapy group ( n=29). The baseline characteristics including age, gender, and body mass index were comparable between groups (all P>0.05). No significant differences in organ function or hemodynamic parameters were observed before treatment (all P>0.05). At 24 h post-treatment, both groups showed significant improvements in serum creatinine (Scr), mean arterial pressure, heart rate, and lactate levels (all P<0.05), with reduced norepinephrine requirements ( P<0.05). The integrated treatment group demonstrated significant improvements in oxygenation index (PaO 2/FiO 2), total bilirubin, APACHEⅡ and SOFA scores (all P<0.05). By 72 h, the integrated therapy group exhibited significantly higher PaO 2/FiO 2, platelet counts, and MAP, alongside lower total bilirubin, Scr, HR, norepinephrine dosage, and Lac (all P<0.05). Both groups showed reductions in APACHEⅡ, SOFA scores, procalcitonin, C-reactive protein, TNF-α, IL-6, and IL-10 (all P<0.05). The integrated treatment group had shorter ICU stays [(8.9±2.8) d vs. (11.2±3.6) d, P=0.005), and higher 28-day renal function recovery rates [15(51.7%) vs. 8(29.6%), P=0.033] than CVVH group, though no significant differences were observed in 7-day or 28-day survival rates between groups (both P>0.05). Conclusions:Compared to CVVH, the combined therapy of PHVHF and PA demonstrates superior efficacy in eliminating inflammatory mediators and enhancing organ function. However, this combination does not significantly influence 28-day survival outcomes in patients.
