Objective To construct a lung cancer surgery-oriented disease-specific database covering the entire perioperative care pathway, thereby improving the quality and usability of key surgical data elements. Methods Real-world clinical data were extracted from a single-center thoracic surgery department. A standardized data model was established based on the open electronic health record (openEHR) standard. Large language model (LLM), optical character recognition (OCR), and artificial intelligence (AI)-driven techniques were employed to extract, structure, and perform quality control on unstructured clinical narratives, imaging reports, and radiological data, with a focus on capturing surgically relevant perioperative indicator. Results A multimodal database comprising 19 917 patients was established, including 7 930 males and 11 987 females, with ages ranging from 15 to 97 (61.7±9.7) years. The database includes 582 structured data variables, textual report data corresponding to 69 clinical indicators, 13 000 pulmonary function test PDF reports, and chest CT imaging data from 16 884 patients. This database comprehensively covers major information relevant to surgical diagnosis and treatment of lung cancer, significantly improving the completeness and granularity of surgical detail data. Large language models (LLMs) and optical character recognition (OCR) technologies enhanced the efficiency of converting unstructured data into structured formats, while a multi-level manual verification process ensured data accuracy and traceability. The database supports real-world research including comparisons of surgical procedures, prediction of postoperative complications, prognosis assessment, and multimodal data association analyses.

This study identified six novel azaphilones, isochromophilones G-L (1-6), and three novel biosynthetically related congeners (7-9) from Diaporthe sp. SCSIO 41011. The structures and absolute configurations were elucidated through comprehensive spectroscopic analyses combined with experimental and calculated electronic circular dichroism (ECD) spectra. Significantly, three highly oxygenated azaphilones contain an acetyl group at the terminal chain (4) or linear conjugated polyenoid moieties (5 and 6), which occur infrequently in the azaphilone family. Additionally, several compounds demonstrated inhibition of lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced nuclear factor kappa-B (NF-κB) activation in RAW 264.7 macrophages at 20 μmol·L^-1. The novel compound (1) effectively inhibited receptor activator of NF-κB ligand (RANKL)-induced osteoclast differentiation without exhibiting cytotoxicity in bone marrow and RAW 264.7 macrophages, indicating its potential as a promising lead compound for osteolytic disease treatment. This research presents the first documented evidence of azaphilone derivatives as inhibitors of RANKL-induced osteoclastogenesis.

This consensus was developed by the Orthodontic Society of the Chinese Stomatological Association to provide a systematic, scientific, and practical guideline for informed consent in orthodontic care. Orthodontic treatment is typically lengthy, highly individualized, and involves multiple factors such as growth and development, occlusal function, and facial esthetics. Rapid technological advances and diverse risk profiles make the traditional reliance on orthodontist experience or institutional templates insufficient to ensure patients′ full understanding and autonomous decision-making. To address this, the expert panel conducted extensive reviews of domestic and international guidelines, analyzed representative dispute cases, and performed multicenter patient-clinician surveys. Using a multi-round Delphi method, the group established a standardized informed consent framework covering the initial consultation, treatment, and retention phases. The consensus emphasizes that informed consent is not only a fundamental legal and ethical requirement but also a key step in building trust, improving patient compliance, and enhancing treatment satisfaction. Orthodontists should clearly and comprehensively explain treatment plans, potential risks, uncertainties, and associated costs, while respecting the autonomy of patients or guardians, and maintain continuous communication and dynamic evaluation throughout the treatment process. The release of this consensus provides unified and authoritative guidance for clinical orthodontics, helping to standardize informed consent, enhance its transparency, safeguard patient rights, reduce medical risks, and promote high-quality, sustainable development of orthodontic practice.

Objective:To analyze the epidemiological and clinical features of infectious diseases of the central nervous system (CNS).Methods:A cross-sectional study and analysis were conducted to summarize the epidemiological and clinical characteristics of 9 918 patients with CNS infectious diseases, who were diagnosed and treated at 29 hospitals across China from January 1, 2001 to December 31, 2020. Data collected included demographic data, clinical manifestations, health economic indicators, and prognostic outcomes.Results:Among the 9 918 collected cases of CNS infectious diseases, 5 559 were male (56.0%) and 4 359 were female (44.0%), with an onset age of 38 (25, 53) years. Education level: slightly more junior high school education (2 651 cases, 26.7%), and less elementary school education and below (2 181 cases, 22.0%) were found. Occupational distribution: farmers were found predominant (3 215 cases, 32.4%), followed by workers (1 826 cases, 18.4%) and students (1 633 cases, 16.5%). Clinical manifestations: headache (6 074 cases, 61.2%), fever (5 869 cases, 59.2%) and positive meningeal irritation signs (2 273 cases, 22.9%) were the 3 most common clinical manifestations, followed by nausea and (or) vomiting (2 095 cases, 21.1%), impaired consciousness (2 077 cases, 20.9%), psychiatric symptom (1 866 cases, 18.8%) and epilepsy (1 627 cases, 16.4%), etc., and cranial nerve involvement was found in 669 cases (6.7%). Major pathogens included viruses in 6 814 cases (68.7%), Mycobacterium tuberculosis in 1 677 cases (16.9%), common bacteria in 864 cases (8.7%), fungi in 254 cases (2.6%), spirochetes of syphilis in 183 cases (1.8%), parasites in 121 cases (1.2%), and rickettsiae in 5 cases (0.1%). Urban-rural distribution: slightly more cases were found in the countryside (5 418 cases, 54.6%) than in the towns (4 500 cases, 45.4%). Distribution of onset by season: 2 412 cases (24.3%) fell ill in spring, 2 835 cases (28.6%) in summer, 2 187 cases (22.1%) in fall, and 2 484 cases (25.0%) in winter. Health economics: the duration of hospitalization was 15 (8, 27) days, and the cost of hospitalization was 1.53 (0.91, 3.02)×10 000 yuan. Prognosis: 9 531 cases (96.1%) were cured or improved, and 92 cases (0.9%) died. Conclusions:The pathogens responsible for CNS infectious diseases are predominantly viruses. Although the incidence is slightly higher during the summer months, the overall seasonal pattern is not particularly pronounced. These infections are more commonly observed in young and middle-aged males and present with a diverse range of clinical manifestations, contributing to a significant disease burden.

Aim To investigate the role of corylin in angiotensin Ⅱ(Ang Ⅱ)-induced cardiomyocyte hy-pertrophy and its underlying mechanisms.Methods An Ang Ⅱ-induced cardiomyocyte hypertrophy model was established and treated with corylin.Real-time PCR was employed to assess hypertrophic gene mRNA expression,and immunofluorescence was used to meas-ure cardiomyocyte surface area.Western blot and en-zyme activity assay kits were used to evaluate SIRT1 expression and activity.Results Corylin markedly mitigated Ang Ⅱ-induced hypertrophic gene expression and cardiomyocyte surface area enlargement.Moreo-ver,it prevented the Ang Ⅱ-mediated decline in SIRT1 protein levels and deacetylase activity.Further investi-gation indicated that corylin inhibited Ang Ⅱ-driven NF-κB transcriptional activity and the expression of its downstream target genes,such as TNF-α,IL-6,and IL-1β.Notably,SIRT1 silencing abolished the protective effects of corylin against cardiomyocyte hypertrophy,as well as its regulation of the SIRT1/NF-κB signaling pathway.Conclusion Corylin suppresses cardiomyo-cyte hypertrophy by modulating the SIRT1-dependent NF-κB signaling pathway.

Objective:To explore the application effect of the attention and interpretation therapy based on Swanson′s caring theory in adolescents with epilepsy, aiming to reduce negative emotions and improve self-management levels in children.Methods:This study was a quasi-experimental research. A convenience sampling method was used to select 78 adolescents with epilepsy who were admitted to the Department of Neurology, the Affiliated Children′s Hospital of Xiangya School of Medicine, Central South University (Hunan Children′s Hospital) from March 1 to August 31, 2023. The participants were assigned into two groups, the control group ( n=39) and the intervention group ( n=39), using a random number table. The control group received standard anti-epileptic treatment and routine nursing care, while the intervention group received the same treatment and care with the addition of a caring team providing attention and interpretation therapy based on Swanson′s caring theory. Assessments were made at three time points: before the intervention, 4 weeks after the intervention, and 12 weeks after the intervention. The Depression-Anxiety-Stress Scale (DASS-21), Epilepsy Self-Management Scale (ESMS), and Pediaric Quality of Life Inventory Measurement Methods (PedsQL TM4.0) were used to assess the participants′ scores. Results:In the control group, 23 were male and 16 were female, with aged of (13.49 ± 1.43) years. In the intervention group, 24 were male and 15 were female, with aged of (13.51 ± 1.45) years. After 4 weeks of intervention, the scores of depression, anxiety, and stress on the DASS-21 for the intervention group were (9.32 ± 2.04), (6.79 ± 2.44), and (13.63 ± 2.67), respectively, which were lower than those of the control group: (10.43 ± 2.27), (8.43 ± 2.75) and (16.05 ± 3.32); the scores of ESMS and PedsQL TM4.0 in the intervention group were (66.66 ± 10.87) and (73.63 ± 9.85), respectively, which were higher than those of the control group: (60.70 ± 10.24) and (67.27 ± 12.33), the differences were statistically significant ( t values were -2.47 to 3.49, all P<0.05). After 12 weeks of intervention, the scores on the DASS-21 for the intervention group were (5.47 ± 1.66), (3.37 ± 1.68) and (8.42 ± 2.24) for depression, anxiety and stress, respectively, which were lower than those of the control group: (8.03 ± 1.98), (6.06 ± 2.64) and (11.28 ± 3.21) ;the scores for ESMS and PedsQL TM4.0 in the intervention group were (74.66 ± 9.15) and (85.24 ± 7.00), respectively, which were higher than those of the control group: (65.36 ± 10.86) and (75.67 ± 11.39), the differences were statistically significant ( t values were -4.33 to 6.03, all P<0.05). Additionally, there were statistically significant differences in the DASS-21 depression, anxiety, and stress scores, ESMS, and PedsQL TM4.0 scores across the different time points ( F values ranged from 4.65 to 1 134.03, all P<0.05). Conclusions:Attention and interpretation therapy based on Swanson′s caring theory can effectively reduce negative emotions in adolescents with epilepsy, improve their self-management skills, and further enhance their quality of life.

Objective:To observe the early clinical efficacy of 3D-printed modular supporting prosthesis for reconstruction of lacunar bone defect caused by giant cell tumor of the distal femur.Methods:From May 2018 to July 2023, a total of 9 patients with giant cell tumor of the distal femur were treated with 3D-printed modular supporting prosthesis to reconstruct lacunar bone defects in the Department of Orthopedics, West China Hospital, Sichuan University. There were 4 males and 5 females, aged 30.8±6.1 years (range, 24-44 years), 5 cases on the left side, 4 cases on the right side, 2 cases of Campanacci grade I, 7 cases of Campanacci grade II. The anteroposterior and lateral X-ray films and T-SMART tomosynthesis imaging of the knee joint were taken to observe the bone graft healing and osseointegration after operation. Musculoskeletal Tumor Society (MSTS)-93 was used to evaluate knee function, and visual analogue scale (VAS) was used to evaluate knee pain.Results:All patients were successfully operated and followed up for an average of 30.8±7.5 months (range, 18-42 months). The operation time was 124.2±23.6 min, and the intraoperative blood loss was 105.6±17.4 ml. All autografts showed bony union at the graft-host junction, and the healing time was 3.3±0.4 months (range, 3.0-4.0 months). At 6 months after surgery, T-SMART tomosynthesis imaging showed that the gap between the prosthesis-bone interface was less than 1 mm in all patients. At the last follow-up, the thickness of residual subchondral bone was 5.7±1.3 mm, which was greater than that before operation 2.2±0.8 mm, and the difference was statistically significant ( t=10.823, P<0.001). At the last follow-up, the score of MSTS-93 was 26.7±2.4, which was higher than that before operation 18.8±3.7, and the difference was statistically significant ( t=5.367, P<0.001). At the last follow-up, the range of motion of the knee joint was 122.8°±9.1°, which was higher than that before operation 108.3°±6.1°, and the difference was statistically significant ( t=3.970, P<0.001). All patients were able to walk normally, go up and down stairs and other daily activities, and 7 patients were able to complete squats. At the last follow-up, there was no local tumor recurrence, distant metastasis, death, joint infection, pain (VAS score was 0), delayed wound healing, joint degeneration, prosthesis loosening or articular surface collapse. Conclusion:Reconstruction of lacunar bone defect caused by giant cell tumor of distal femur with 3D-printed modular supporting prosthesis can effectively improve knee joint function and osseointegration, and the short-term clinical results are satisfactory.

Objective:To explore the early and mid-term efficacy of three-dimensional printed customized porous prosthesis with preserved articular in the reconstruction of ultra-long segmental bone defect around the metaphysis of peri-knee.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on the data of 24 patients who underwent reconstruction of ultra-long segmental bone defect around the metaphysis of peri-knee using 3D-printed customized porous prostheses at West China Hospital of Sichuan University from June 2015 to June 2021. There were 14 female cases and 10 male cases, with an average age of 28.9±16.5 years (range, 12-61 years), 12 cases at the distal end of the femur and 12 cases at the proximal end of the tibia. Tumor types: 16 cases of osteosarcoma, 4 cases of Ewing's sarcoma, 2 cases of chondrosarcoma, and 2 case of parosteal osteosarcoma. All patients were classified as Enneking stage IIB. Record the oncology results of the patients, the length of tumor segment resection, and the remaining bone length at the distal femur or proximal tibia, as well as complications, systemic metastasis and imaging changes. The bone integration at the prosthesis-bone interface was evaluated by tomosynthesis-shimadzu metal artifact reduction technology (T-SMART). Limb function was evaluated using the Musculoskeletal Tumor Society (MSTS)-93 score and knee range of motion assessment.Results:All 24 patients successfully completed the surgery and were followed up, with an average follow-up time of 51.8±12.7 months (range, 32-99 months). The length of femoral osteotomy was 241.1±66.2 mm (range, 150.6-333.4 mm), and the length of tibial osteotomy was 198.6±35.6 mm (range, 156.6-287.6 mm). The remaining bone length at the epiphyseal end around the knee joint (from the knee joint plane to the osteotomy plane of the distal femur or proximal tibia) was 52.6±11.0 mm (range, 31.1-77.5 mm). At the last follow-up, 23 patients survived tumor-free, while one patient died due to lung metastasis 54 months after the operation. One patient had prosthesis fracture 75 months after the operation, two patients had aseptic loosening 6 and 8 months after the operation, and the T-SMART of the remaining 20 patients showed that the implanted prostheses all achieved good osseointegration. At the last follow-up, the range of motion of the knee joint was 126.2°±7.5° (range, 110.0°-140.0°), and the MSTS-93 score was 26.7±1.8 points (range, 23-30 points). Among them, the MSTS-93 score of the femoral prosthesis was 26.7±1.6 points (range, 24-29 points), and the MSTS-93 score of the tibial prosthesis was 26.9±1.9 points (range, 23-30 points). The average knee range of motion was 126.2°±7.5° (range, 110°-140°), and the MSTS-93 functional score was 26.7±1.8 points (range, 23-30 points) at the last follow-up. The femoral component had an average score of 26.7±1.6 points (range, 24-29 points), while the tibial component had an average score of 26.9±1.9 points (range, 23-30 points).Conclusion:The application three-dimensional printed customized porous prosthesis with preserved articular in the reconstruction of ultra-long segmental bone defect around the metaphysis of peri-knee can preserve the joint, restore limb function well, and have a low incidence of prosthesis complications, with good clinical efficacy in the early and middle stages.
