OBJECTIVE To study the clinical characteristics and potential risk factors for infection in patients with multiple myeloma （MM） following treatment with bortezomib. METHODS Clinical data were retrospectively collected from MM patients who received bortezomib-based treatment regimens at the Department of Hematology， the Second Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University， from October 2021 to February 2025. The collected data primarily included demographic characteristics， disease characteristics of MM， treatment regimens， occurrence of infections and corresponding management measures， and prophylactic medication use. Univariate and multivariate Logistic regression analyses were conducted to identify potential risk factors for MM complicated with infection. RESULTS Among the 284 MM patients treated with bortezomib， 132 patients （46.5%） experienced at least one infection. The predominant types of infections were respiratory tract infections and gastrointestinal infections. Univariate analysis showed that age at initial diagnosis， pathological classification， and grade of myelosuppression were influencing factors for infection in MM patients （ P ＜0.05）. Further analysis of influencing factors for the two main types of infections revealed that sex， age at initial diagnosis， pathological classification， treatment regimen， and smoking history were influencing factor s for respiratory tract infections in MM patients （ P ＜0.05）； BMI， pathological classification， treatment regimen， and grade of myelosuppression were influencing factors for gastrointestinal infections in MM patients （ P ＜0.05）. Multivariate Logistic regression analysis indicated that age≥70 years and the presence of grade Ⅳ myelosuppression before treatment were risk factors for infection in MM patients， while the IgG-λ type was a protective factor against infection （ P ＜0.05）. CONCLUSIONS The incidence of infection is relatively high in MM patients receiving bortezomib-based treatment regimens， with respiratory and gastrointestinal infections being the most common. Age at initial diagnosis， grade of myelosuppression， and pathological classification are influencing factors for infection in MM patients.

Objective:To investigate the survival outcomes and prognostic factors in patients undergoing radical resection for pancreatic body and tail cancer.Methods:A retrospective case series study was conducted on 992 patients who underwent radical resection for pancreatic body and tail cancer at the Pancreatic Center of the First Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing Medical University from January 2016 to June 2024. In this study, 577 (58.2%) were male and 415 (41.8%) were female,with an age of (65±9) years (range: 26 to 86 years). Follow-up continued until June 2024. Survival rates were estimated using the Kaplan-Meier method,and prognostic factors were identified using univariate and multivariate Cox proportional hazards models.Results:Among 992 patients,open surgery was the predominant approach (89.1%, 884/992), and radical antegrade modular pancreatosplenectomy (RAMPS) was performed in 317 patients (32.0%). Combined organ resection,venous resection,and arterial resection were performed in 23.5%, 9.3%,and 11.2% of patients,respectively. The rates of R0, R1-1 mm, and R1-direct resections were 49.8% (494/992),41.5% (412/992), and 8.7% (86/992),respectively. Stage ⅡB was the most common TNM stage (32.2%,319/992). A total of 801 patients (80.8%) received adjuvant chemotherapy. The median follow-up period was 32.0(8.8) months(range:3.2 to 105.3 months),during which 508 patients (51.2%) died. The overall median survival (OS) was 26.4 months,with 1-,3-, and 5-year survival rates of 79.0%,40.0%, and 29.0%, respectively. In the recent five years (from 2020 to 2024), the median OS improved significantly to 34.1 months compared to 20.0 months from 2016 to 2019 ( P<0.01). Histological subtype analysis showed that the median OS time was 26.7 months for pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC, n=855),58.9 months for invasive intraductal papillary mucinous carcinoma (IPMC, n=32),and 15.7 months for adenosquamous carcinoma of pancreas (ASCP, n=73) ( P=0.001). Among PDAC patients, adjuvant chemotherapy significantly improved survival (29.1 months vs. 14.4 months, P<0.01);in IPMC patients, adjuvant chemotherapy also extended survival (65.7 months vs. 58.9 months, P=0.047). Although ASCP patients receiving chemotherapy had a longer median OS time than those without (18.8 months vs. 8.9 months),the difference was not statistically significant ( P=0.151). Multivariate Cox regression analysis in PDAC patients indicated that adjuvant chemotherapy, R0 resection, T stage,N stage,and tumor differentiation were independent prognostic factors ( P<0.01). The median OS time by TNM stage was:not reached for stage ⅠA, 51.6 months for ⅠB, 25.5 months for ⅡA, 23.7 months for ⅡB, 23.0 months for Ⅲ, and 14.4 months for Ⅳ. The median OS time for R0,R1-1 mm,and R1-direct resections was 34.1,24.7,and 15.7 months,respectively ( P<0.01). Conclusion:Adjuvant chemotherapy,R0 resection,tumor stage,and differentiation are independent prognostic factors for pancreatic body and tail cancer.

ObjectiveTo investigate the effects and underlying mechanisms of polydatin in delaying the progression of colitis-associated colorectal cancer （CAC） by constructing an azoxymethane （AOM）/dextran sulfate sodium （DSS）-induced CAC mouse model and conducting in vitro experiments. MethodsFifty-four male C57BL/6J mice were randomly divided into normal， model， and polydatin groups （0.045 g·kg^-1）. The CAC mouse model was established using AOM/DSS， and samples were collected at 4， 7， and 10 weeks. Body weight change rate， disease activity index （DAI）， and tumor formation were assessed. Hematoxylin-eosin （HE） staining was used to observe pathological injury in intestinal tissues. Immunohistochemistry （IHC） was performed to detect zonula occludens-1 （ZO-1） expression in colonic tissues， and Western blot was used to detect the expression of E-cadherin， N-cadherin， and Vimentin in colonic epithelial cells. Real-time PCR was used to measure mRNA expression of interleukin-17A （IL-17A）， Wnt3a， β-catenin， T cell factor 1 （Tcf1）， E-cadherin， N-cadherin， and Vimentin in colonic tissues. Flow cytometry was used to analyze the proportion of CD8⁺T cells and the expression of exhaustion-related molecules in tumors. Human colon cancer DLD-1 cells were cultured in a polydatin-containing medium， and wound healing assays were performed to observe migration changes. Real-time PCR was used to detect mRNA expression of interleukin-17 receptor A （IL-17RA）， Wnt3a， β-catenin， Tcf1， E-cadherin， N-cadherin， and Vimentin in DLD-1 cells. ResultsCompared with the normal group， the model group at all three time points showed significantly decreased body weight change rate （P<0.01）， significantly shortened colon length （P<0.01）， and markedly increased DAI scores （P<0.01）. HE staining revealed significant inflammatory cell infiltration in the submucosa of the colon in the model group， accompanied by epithelial dysplasia. ZO-1 expression in colonic tissues was significantly reduced （P<0.01）. The mRNA expression of the pro-inflammatory factor IL-17A and key molecules of the Wnt/β-catenin pathway （Wnt3a， β-catenin， Tcf1） was significantly elevated （P<0.05）. The mRNA and protein expression of epithelial-mesenchymal transition （EMT） markers N-cadherin and Vimentin was significantly upregulated （P<0.05）， while E-cadherin expression was significantly downregulated （P<0.05）. The proportion of tumor-infiltrating CD8⁺T cells expressing immunosuppressive molecules （TIM-3， LAG-3， PD-1） was significantly increased （P<0.05）. Compared with the model group， the polydatin group showed significant improvement in body weight and DAI score （P<0.01）， as well as recovery of colon length and tissue injury. ZO-1 expression in colonic tissue was significantly increased （P<0.01）， while IL-17A， Wnt3a， β-catenin， Tcf1， N-cadherin， and Vimentin expression levels were significantly decreased （P<0.05）， and E-cadherin expression was significantly increased （P<0.01）. Tumor-infiltrating CD8⁺ T cells expressing immunosuppressive molecules were significantly reduced （P<0.05）. In vitro experiments showed that polydatin significantly inhibited migration of DLD-1 cells （P<0.01） and reversed the upregulation of IL-17RA， Wnt3a， β-catenin， N-cadherin， and Vimentin mRNA， as well as the downregulation of E-cadherin mRNA （P<0.05）. ConclusionPolydatin inhibits IL-17A secretion and IL-17RA expression， improves the immune microenvironment， blocks activation of the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway， suppresses EMT markers （N-cadherin and Vimentin）， and restores tight junction protein expression in intestinal epithelial cells， thereby delaying the progression from colitis to colorectal cancer in mice.

Aim To explore the exact branched-chain amino acid(BCAA)that exacerbates acute myocardial infarction(MI)injury and mechanisms of such action.Methods At the cellular level,myocardial injury model was stimulated in H9c2 cells subjected to H2O2.The effects of the three branched-chain amino acids on MI were evaluated by measuring MTT,LDH leakage rate and cellular morphology.In vivo,the MI model was established by ligating the coronary left anterior descending artery.Electrocardiography,echocardio-graphy,TTC staining and histopathological detection were conducted.Additionally,Western blot was used to determine the effect of leucine on inflammatory sig-naling pathway in vitro.Results At the cellular lev-el,BCAA pretreatment could further inhibit the surviv-al rate of cardiomyocytes,increase LDH leakage rate,markedly decrease cell numbers and obviously shrink-age morphology,thus aggravating acute injury in car-diomyocytes.In vivo,leucine or BCAA pretreatment further deteriorated the cardiac function,increased the cardiac infarct size,worsened the histopathological changes,increased levels of the serum CK-MB and AST in the MI group rats,and ultimately exacerbated the MI injury in rats.Additionally,leucine could dosedependently exacerbate the activation of the NL-RP3 inflammasome signaling pathway induced by H2O2 stimulation in H9c2 cells.Conclusion The exacerba-ting effect of BCAA on MI injury is mainly exerted through leucine,and this effect is associated with the activation of the NLRP3 inflammasome.

Objective:To systematically evaluate the authentic feeling of mental experience among patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) in the process of dietary management, aiming to provide insights for maintaining the psychological well-being of patients with IBD and strengthening their dietary management.Methods:The qualitative studies related to dietary management in patients with IBD from China National Knowledge Infrastructure, Wanfang, VIP, China Biomedical Database, PubMed, Web of Science, Embase, Cochrane Library, CINAHL and PsyINFO were searched from inception to January 31st 2025. Quality evaluation criteria for qualitative research of Joanna Briggs Institute, Australia, 2016 edition was used for literature evaluation. Meta integration method was used to integrate and analyze the literature findings.Results:A total of 11 articles were included in the review, from which 22 research findings were extracted and categorized into 7 groups, culminating in 3 integrated outcomes: IBD patients experienced complex emotions, IBD patients faced multiple pressures and IBD patients had ambivalent coping.Conclusions:IBD patients manifest profound psychological complexities throughout dietary management processes. Future healthcare professionals can implement multifaceted psychological intervention strategies to relieve psychological distress, promote positive emotion, overcome negative coping, and ultimately enhance the competence of dietary self-management among IBD patients.

Objective:To investigate the outcomes of natural cycle (NC) and modified natural cycle (MNC) assisted reproductive technology (ART) in patients with diminished ovarian reserve (DOR), and to provide a scientific basis for individualized treatment strategies for DOR patients.Methods:A retrospective cohort analysis was performed on the clinical data of DOR patients who underwent ART at the Center for Reproductive Medicine of the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Peking University Third Hospital from January 1, 2015 to December 31, 2023. Patients were divided into the NC group ( n=801) and the MNC group ( n=385) based on their treatment protocol. The primary outcomes were cycle cancellation rate and oocyte retrieval rate. Secondary outcomes included clinical pregnancy rate and live birth rate per fresh embryo transfer cycle and frozen-thawed embryo transfer cycle, cumulative pregnancy rate and cumulative live birth rate per started cycle and per transfer cycle, as well as laboratory parameters such as the number of retrieved oocytes, the number of two pronuclei (2PN) fertilized oocytes, the number of transferable embryos, and transferable embryo formation rate. Further, multivariate logistic regression was used to analyze the impact of the treatment protocol on pregnancy and live birth outcomes. Results:There were no statistically significant differences between the NC and MNC groups in terms of general characteristics such as age, body mass index, and baseline hormone levels (all P>0.05). The cycle cancellation rate was significantly higher in the NC group [19.10% (153/801)] than in the MNC group [10.65% (41/385), P<0.001], and the oocyte retrieval rate was significantly lower in the NC group [66.31% (431/650)] than in the MNC group [74.86% (259/346), P=0.005]. The number of retrieved oocytes [1 (0,1)], the number of 2PN fertilized oocytes [1 (0,1)], and the number of transferable embryos [0 (0, 1)] were also significantly lower in the NC group than in the MNC group [1 (1, 2), P<0.001; 1 (1, 1), P<0.001; 0 (0, 1), P<0.001]. However, there were no statistically significant differences in 2PN fertilization rate and transferable embryo formation rate between the NC and MNC groups (all P>0.05). In both fresh embryo transfer cycles and frozen-thawed embryo transfer cycles, there were no statistically significant differences in clinical pregnancy rate and live birth rate between the NC and MNC groups (all P>0.05). The cumulative pregnancy rate per started cycle and transfer cycle, the cumulative live birth rate per started cycle and per transfer cycle were also not significantly different between the NC and MNC groups (all P>0.05). Multivariate logistic analysis showed no significant association between NC and clinical pregnancy or live birth compared with MNC. Conclusion:While MNC to some extent reduced the cycle cancellation rate and improved oocyte retrieval rates compared with NC, it did not ultimately improve pregnancy outcomes in DOR patients.
