OBJECTIVE To upgrade the drug traceability code management system for a pediatric hospital under the “payment by code” background， aiming to comprehensively enhance traceability integrity， efficiency， and compliance. METHODS Taking Xiamen Children’s Hospital as the implementation setting， a before-and-after control design was adopted to construct an intelligent drug traceability code management system through systematic upgrades involving the technology platform， core mechanisms， and coordination with medical insurance. Key interventions included： upgrading a traceability code management platform and designing a dynamic code pool； innovating differentiated traceability mechanisms for routine， split-dose， and special drugs； establishing a tiered early-warning and emergency response system； and constructing a data coordination and quality control system. The drug traceability code upload rate served as the primary outcome. Process indicators such as the root causes distribution of failed uploads and the duration of medication returns， and a comprehensive outcome （the number of insurance-flagged abnormal prescriptions） were also analyzed. The data between the baseline period （April 2025） and the observation period （June-August 2025） were compared and evaluated. RESULTS After the upgrade， the overall upload rate of drug traceability codes increased from 9.21% （baseline） to 99.86% （August 2025）. The upload rate of traceability codes in previously unmanaged areas， such as the inpatient pharmacy and pharmacy intravenous admixture services， soared from 0 to nearly 100%. The proportion of non-uploads due to system issues fell from 66.44% （June 2025） to 2.62% （August Additionally， the number of insurance-flagged） abnormal prescriptions dropped sharply from 2 275.00 in the first “payment by code” policy month （July 2025） to 212.00 by the end of the observation period （August 2025）， a 90.70% decrease. CONCLUSIONS The developed management system effectively addresses complex scenario challenges such as high-frequency drug splitting. It significantly enhances traceability code upload performance and ensures a high degree of compliance with medical insurance data requirements. These outcomes contribute to proactive risk mitigation against insurance claim denials and demonstrate a concurrent optimization of pharmacy operations.

Oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) is a common head and neck malignancy. Approximately 50% to 60% of patients with OSCC are diagnosed at a locally advanced stage (clinical staging III-IVa). Even with comprehensive and sequential treatment primarily based on surgery, the 5-year overall survival rate remains below 50%, and patients often suffer from postoperative functional impairments such as difficulties with speaking and swallowing. Programmed death receptor-1 (PD-1) inhibitors are increasingly used in the neoadjuvant treatment of locally advanced OSCC and have shown encouraging efficacy. However, clinical practice still faces key challenges, including the definition of indications, optimization of combination regimens, and standards for efficacy evaluation. Based on the latest research advances worldwide and the clinical experience of the expert group, this expert consensus systematically evaluates the application of PD-1 inhibitors in the neoadjuvant treatment of locally advanced OSCC, covering combination strategies, treatment cycles and surgical timing, efficacy assessment, use of biomarkers, management of special populations and immune related adverse events, principles for immunotherapy rechallenge, and function preservation strategies. After multiple rounds of panel discussion and through anonymous voting using the Delphi method, the following consensus statements have been formulated: 1) Neoadjuvant therapy with PD-1 inhibitors can be used preoperatively in patients with locally advanced OSCC. The preferred regimen is a PD-1 inhibitor combined with platinum based chemotherapy, administered for 2-3 cycles. 2) During the efficacy evaluation of neoadjuvant therapy, radiographic assessment should follow the dual criteria of Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) version 1.1 and immune RECIST (iRECIST). After surgery, systematic pathological evaluation of both the primary lesion and regional lymph nodes is required. For combination chemotherapy regimens, PD-L1 expression and combined positive score need not be used as mandatory inclusion or exclusion criteria. 3) For special populations such as the elderly (≥ 70 years), individuals with stable HIV viral load, and carriers of chronic HBV/HCV, PD-1 inhibitors may be used cautiously under the guidance of a multidisciplinary team (MDT), with close monitoring for adverse events. 4) For patients with a poor response to neoadjuvant therapy, continuation of the original treatment regimen is not recommended; the subsequent treatment plan should be adjusted promptly after MDT assessment. Organ transplant recipients and patients with active autoimmune diseases are not recommended to receive neoadjuvant PD-1 inhibitor therapy due to the high risk of immune related activation. Rechallenge is generally not advised for patients who have experienced high risk immune related adverse events such as immune mediated myocarditis, neurotoxicity, or pneumonitis. 5) For patients with a good pathological response, individualized de escalation surgery and function preservation strategies can be explored. This consensus aims to promote the standardized, safe, and precise application of neoadjuvant PD-1 inhibitor strategies in the management of locally advanced OSCC patients.

[Purpose]To analyze the trends of incidence and mortality of thyroid cancer in the cancer registration areas of Nanning City from 2016 to 2020.[Methods]The incidence and mor-tality data of thyroid cancer from 2016 to 2020 were collected from the Nanning cancer registries,and the the quality of data was assessed.The crude incidence/mortality rates,the age-standar-dized incidence/mortality rates by Chinese standard population(ASIRC,ASMRC)and world stan-dard population(ASIRW,ASMRW),the cumulative incidence/mortality rates(0～74 years old),and the age-specific incidence/mortality rates were calculated.The Joinpoint regression model was used to estimate the trends of incidence and mortality,expressed as average annual percentage change(AAPC).[Results]From 2016 to 2020,a total of 2 291 new cases of thyroid cancer were reported in Nanning cancer registries.The crude incidence rate was 7.70/105 with the ASIRC of 7.23/105 and ASIRW of 6.22/105,the cumulative incidence rate was 0.59％.The incidence was higher in female than that in male,and higher in urban areas than that in rural areas.The incidence rate of thyroid cancer began to rise sharply from the 20 years old and reached peak in the age group of 50～54 years old.The incidence rate in female remained at a high level in the age group of 30～59 years old,which was higher than that in male.A total of 121 deaths of thyroid cancer were re-ported with a crude mortality rate of 0.41/105,ASMRC of 0.32/105,ASMRW of 0.31/105 and cu-mulative mortality rate of 0.03％.The mortality rate was higher in female than that in male.The age-specific mortality rate for thyroid cancer showed a fluctuant upward trend after the 40 years old and peaked in the age group of 75～79 years old.The crude incidence rate and ASIRC showed an upward trend in whole population(AAPC=21.11％,t=3.25,P＜0.05;AAPC=22.02％,t=3.39,P＜0.05),in male(AAPC=19.45％,t=4.35,P＜0.05;AAPC=19.81％,t=5.74,P＜0.05)and urban areas(AAPC=30.62％,t=7.13,P＜0.05;AAPC=32.38％,t=7.25,P＜0.05).The crude mortality rate and ASMRC in urban areas(AAPC=43.06％,t=7.73,P＜0.05;AAPC=47.63％,t=8.60,P＜0.05)also showed an increasing trend.[Conclusion]The crude incidence rate and ASIRC of thyroid cancer in cancer registration areas of Nanning City showed an overall upward trend from 2016 to 2020,except in rural areas;while the rising trends of the crude mortality rate and ASMRC were only observed in urban areas.

BACKGROUND: The available evidence regarding the benefits of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) on patients receiving dialysis with coronary artery disease (CAD) is limited and inconsistent. This study aimed to evaluate the association between PCI and clinical outcomes as compared with medical therapy alone in patients undergoing dialysis with CAD in China. METHODS: This multicenter, retrospective study was conducted in 30 tertiary medical centers across 12 provinces in China from January 2015 to June 2021 to include patients on dialysis with CAD. The primary outcome was major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE), defined as a composite of cardiovascular death, non-fatal myocardial infarction, and non-fatal stroke. Secondary outcomes included all-cause death, the individual components of MACE, and Bleeding Academic Research Consortium criteria types 2, 3, or 5 bleeding. Multivariable Cox proportional hazard models were used to assess the association between PCI and outcomes. Inverse probability of treatment weighting (IPTW) and propensity score matching (PSM) were performed to account for potential between-group differences. RESULTS: Of the 1146 patients on dialysis with significant CAD, 821 (71.6%) underwent PCI. After a median follow-up of 23.0 months, PCI was associated with a 43.0% significantly lower risk for MACE (33.9% [ n  = 278] vs . 43.7% [ n  = 142]; adjusted hazards ratio 0.57, 95% confidence interval 0.45-0.71), along with a slightly increased risk for bleeding outcomes that did not reach statistical significance (11.1% vs . 8.3%; adjusted hazards ratio 1.31, 95% confidence interval, 0.82-2.11). Furthermore, PCI was associated with a significant reduction in all-cause and cardiovascular mortalities. Subgroup analysis did not modify the association of PCI with patient outcomes. These primary findings were consistent across IPTW, PSM, and competing risk analyses. CONCLUSION This study indicated that PCI in patients on dialysis with CAD was significantly associated with lower MACE and mortality when comparing with those with medical therapy alone, albeit with a slightly increased risk for bleeding events that did not reach statistical significance.

Objective:To explore the feasibility and mid-term efficacy of minimally invasive cardiac surgery coronary artery bypass grafting(MICS CABG) in the treatment of multi-vessel coronary artery disease.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on 440 patients with multi-vessel coronary artery disease at the Minimally Invasive Cardiac Surgery Center of Beijing Anzhen Hospital, Capital Medical University, from January 2018 to December 2022. Among these patients, 145 who underwent MICS CABG were designated as the experimental group(MICS group). And 295 patients who underwent conventional sternotomy off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting(OPCABG) were collected during the same period. Propensity score matching was employed at a 1∶1 ratio to match patients in the OPCABG group, serving as the control group.The clinical data during hospitalization and the results of midterm follow-up were analyzed and compared using rank- sum test, Fisher' s exact test, Kaplan- Meier survival curve, and other methods. Results:After propensity matching, the baseline features were well balanced between the two groups( P>0.05), with 111 patients in each group. Patients who received MICS CABG had significantly reduce blood loss[MICS: 600 ml(500 ml, 900 ml) vs. OPCABG: 800 ml(600 ml, 1 000 ml), P<0.001], transfusion rate(MICS: 1.8% vs. OPCABG: 17.1%, P<0.001), and IABP implantation rate(MICS: 3.1% vs. OPCABG: 17.1%, P=0.001). In addition, patients who received MICS CABG had significantly better postoperative LVEF(MICS: 0.59±0.06 vs. OPCABG: 0.56±0.09, P<0.001) than the control group. The average follow-up time was 2.42 years, and there was no significant difference in the incidence of MACCEs in the mid-term( P=0.748). Conclusion:MICS CABG demonstrates rapid recovery and fewer postoperative complications. For patients with multiple coronary artery lesions, MICS CABG has a similar efficacy in the mid-term as conventional coronary artery bypass surgery.

Objective To explore the efficacy and safety of side-to-side anastomosis(SS)and end-to-side anastomosis(ES)of the ileocolon in laparoscopic right hemicolectomy of colon cancer,so as to provide evidence-based evidence for surgical selection.Methods PubMed,Embase,Web of Science,Cochrane Library,China National Knowledge Infrastructure,Wanfang Data,VIP database,Chinese BioMedical Literature database were searched from inception to November 2024 to collect relevant clinical studies of SS versus ES.The Newcastle-Ottawa Scale(NOS)was used to evaluate the literature quality of retrospective studies,and the Cochrane system was used to evaluate the literature quality of randomized controlled trials(RCT).Rev Man 5.3 software was used for Meta-analysis,sensitivity analysis,and publication bias analysis.Results 9 retrospective studies and 4 RCTs with a total of 2 632 patients were included.The Meta-analysis results of the retrospective study show that:Compared with SS,ES has a shorter tolerance time for liquid diet(MD=-0.20,95%CI:-0.40～0.00,P<0.05),fewer daily episodes of diarrhea(MD=-1.06,95%CI:-1.79～0.23,P<0.05),but a higher pain score at 12 hours post-surgery(MD=0.95,95%CI:0.50～1.40,P<0.05).Comparison of the overall complication rates of the two anastomosis methods showed no statistically significant difference((OR)=1.05,95%CI:0.22～5.14,P>0.05).Sensitivity analysis of the retrospective study shows:the incidence of ES bowel obstruction was higher than that of SS,with a statistically significant difference((OR)=2.18,95%CI:1.15～4.14,P<0.05);The sensitivity analysis of the RCT shows:the overall incidence of complications at the anastomotic site of SS was significantly higher than that of ES,with a statistically significant difference((OR)=5.26,95%CI:1.91～14.48,P<0.05),and the results of other outcome indicators did not show reversal.The analysis of publication bias risk showed no significant publication bias.Conclusion Ileocolonic ES has a slight advantage over SS in laparoscopic right hemicolectomy of colon cancer,both anastomoses are safe and effective,and the surgeon can choose the appropriate anastomosis technique according to the patient's specific situation,in order to improve the postoperative recovery.

Body weight abnormalities, including overweight, obesity, and underweight, have become a dual public health challenge in Chinese adults: overweight and obesity lead to a variety of chronic complications, while underweight increases the risks of malnutrition, sarcopenia, and organ dysfunction. To systematically address these issues, multidisciplinary experts in endocrinology, sports science, nutrition, and psychiatry from various regions have held multiple weight management seminars. Based on the latest epidemiological data and clinical evidence, they expanded the guideline to include assessment and intervention strategies for underweight, in addition to the core content of obesity management. This guideline outlines the etiological mechanisms, evaluation methods, and multidimensional management strategies for overweight and obesity, covering key areas such as diagnosis and assessment, medical nutrition therapy, exercise prescription, pharmacological intervention, and psychological support. It is intended to provide a scientific and standardized approach to weight management across the adult population, aiming to curb the rising prevalence of obesity, mitigate complications associated with abnormal body weight, and improve nutritional status and overall quality of life.

Aim To investigate the effect of N6-methy-ladenosine(m6A)demethylase ALKBH5 on the prolif-eration and migration of cardiac fibroblasts(CFs)in-duced by high glucose.Methods Primary CFs were isolated from neonatal mouse hearts and identified u-sing optical and confocal microscopy.Cell activation was induced using a high-glucose medium(33 mmol·L-1 glucose).An ALKBH5 overexpression model was established by transfecting CFs with an ALKBH5 ex-pression vector in a high-glucose medium.The expres-sion of ALKBH5 in CFs was assessed through immuno-fluorescence staining,Western blot and RT-qPCR.Changes in m6A levels were evaluated using Dot blot a-nalysis.Additionally,Alterations in the expression of proliferating cell nuclear antigen(PCNA)and collagenⅠ,a pivotal fibrosis indicator,were measured using Western blot.The proliferation and migration ability of CFs were assessed through EdU staining and Transwell migration assay,respectively.Results Following treatment with high glucose,the expression of ALKBH5 in CFs notably decreased,while m6A level increased.This was accompanied by a significant increase in the expression of the proliferation marker PCNA and the fi-brosis marker collagen Ⅰ.Additionally,there was a sig-nificant improvement in the ability of proliferation and migration.Overexpression of ALKBH5 resulted in a significant decrease in the expressions of PCNA and collagen Ⅰ,leading to the inhibition of both proliferation and migration in CFs.Conclusion Overexpression of ALKBH5 suppresses the expression of PCNA and colla-gen Ⅰ,consequently reducing the proliferation and mi-gration of CFs,potentially through m6A methylation modification.
