Lysine-specific demethylase 1(LSD1)plays a regulatory role in tumor immunity.LSD1 affects CD8+T cell infiltration by regulating AGO2 protein level,and it is required for normal B cell proliferation and differentiation via reducing local chromatin accessibility.LSD1 inhibition promotes NK cell cytotoxicity of cancer cells through restoring the expression of ULBPs.LSD1 affects the resistance of M1 macrophages to oxidative stress by regulating the level of SOD2;In addition,regulating the expression of LSD1 affects the anti-tumor function of CD 19 CAR-T cells and immune checkpoint blockers.The development of drugs targeting LSD1 will provide new ideas for immunotherapy of tumors.

Objective To explore the effectiveness of auricular Gua Sha based on auricular vagus nerve stimulation in patients with chronic renal failure accompanied by nausea and vomiting.Methods Using a convenience sampling method,100 patients with chronic renal failure and nausea and vomiting admitted to the Nephrology Department of a tertiary hospital in Zhejiang Province between January 2022 and December 2023 were selected.They were randomly divided into a test group and a control group,with 50 patients in each group.The test group received the conventional treatment and care for chronic renal failure with nausea and vomiting,along with auricular Gua Sha,with a 3-day intervention.The control group received only conventional treatment and care.The Traditional Chinese Medicine(TCM)symptom scores for nausea and vomiting,total effective rate of the efficacy index,symptom improvement time,total number of bowel movements,and adverse events were compared between the 2 groups.Results A total of 100 patients completed the study.After intervention,the scores for nausea and vomiting symptoms were lower in both groups compared to the scores before intervention,with the experimental group having lower scores than the control group(P＜0.001);the total effective rate of the experimental group was 98.00％,higher than 88.00％in the control group(P＜0.001).Following intervention,the time for improvement of nausea and vomiting symptoms in the experimental group was(7.50±1.74)minutes,shorter than(13.38±2.31)minutes in the control group(P＜0.001);the total number of bowel movements in the experimental group was(3.34±0.63)times,more than(2.46±0.58)times in the control group(P＜0.001);no adverse events occurred during the study.Conclusion Auricular Gua Sha based on auricular vagus nerve stimulation helps reduce nausea and vomiting symptom scores,improves the total effective rate of the efficacy index,shortens the symptom improvement time,increases the frequency of bowel movements,and it is safe for patients with chronic renal failure.

Hereditary breast cancer(HBC)is one of the important subtypes of breast cancer(BC),primarily characterized by mutations in the BRCA1/2 genes.Accurate identification of BRCA1/2 mutation carriers remains a significant clinical challenge.Traditional genetic testing methods for BRCA1/2 mutations are often expensive and complex.In recent years,advancements in radiomics and artificial intelligence(AI)have opened new avenues for non-invasive prediction of BRCA1/2 mutations.This review summarized the current research progresses in utilizing radiomics and AI for screening and predicting of BRCA1/2-related HBC.

Objective:To investigate the prognostic value of circulating plasma cell (CPC) in patients with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma (NDMM) undergoing induction therapy with bortezomib, lenalidomide, and dexamethasone (VRD) regimen.Methods:This study retrospectively analyzed clinical data of 152 patients with NDMM treated with the VRD regimen as induction therapy in the Hematology Department of Jiangsu Provincial People’s Hospital from January 2019 to March 2024. The clinical characteristics, efficacy, and prognosis of patients with high and low CPC proportions are compared. The prognosis of patients in the CPC-positive group, CPC-negative conversion group, and CPC-negative group was analyzed.Results:This study included 152 patients with NDMM, comprising 76 males and 76 females, with a median age at onset of 62 (40–77) years. Compared with the group with CPC proportion of <0.105%, patients with CPC proportion of ≥0.105% demonstrated a higher proportion of International Staging System (ISS) stage Ⅲ ( P<0.001), Revised ISS stage Ⅲ ( P=0.023), HGB≤100 g/L ( P=0.015), β 2-microglobulin ≥3.5 g/L ( P<0.001), shorter median progression-free survival (PFS) period (24 months vs 52 months, P<0.001), and shorter median overall survival (OS) period (52 months vs not achieved, P=0.005). Patients in the CPC-negative group demonstrated a longer median PFS period (not reached vs 41 months vs 19 months, P<0.001) and median OS period (not reached vs not reached vs 26 months, P<0.001) compared with patients in the CPC-negative conversion group and CPC-positive group. Multivariate analysis revealed CPC proportion of ≥0.105% ( HR=3.79, 95% CI: 1.95–7.38, P<0.001), positive CPC after induction therapy ( HR=3.54, 95% CI: 1.41–8.87, P=0.007), and cytogenetic high risk ( HR=3.69, 95% CI: 1.85–7.37, P<0.001) as independent risk factors affecting the PFS of patients. Meanwhile, CPC of ≥0.105% ( HR=3.50, 95% CI: 1.29–9.48, P=0.014) and positive CPC after induction therapy ( HR=4.12, 95% CI: 1.13–15.03, P=0.032) are independent risk factors affecting the OS of patients. Conclusion:Patients with NDMM demonstrating high CPC expression have a worse prognosis, with CPC level as an independent prognostic factor.
