To investigate the changes in peripheral blood immune cells before and after the onset of septic shock in patients with malignant tumors, and to analyze the relationship between these immune cells and patient prognosis. A retrospective study was conducted, enrolling perioperative tumor patients who were transferred to the intensive care unit (ICU) due to septic shock at Shanxi Provincial Cancer Hospital between October 2018 and December 2019.Changes in lymphocyte counts and subsets were compared before and after septic shock (measured prior to septic shock onset and within 72 hours after onset).A multivariate Logistic regression model was used to analyze the relationship between these immune indicators and the 28-day mortality risk in tumor patients following septic shock. A total of 47 tumor patients transferred to the ICU due to septic shock were included.There were 32 males and 15 females, with a mean age of (63.9±11.2) years.Gastrointestinal tumors were the most common tumor type (76.60%, 36/47), and abdominal/pelvic infection (65.96%, 31/47) was the primary source of infection.Within 28 days after ICU transfer, 12 patients died and 35 survived. Compared to pre-septic shock levels, lymphocyte counts significantly decreased after septic shock[530(300, 830) cells/μL Perioperative tumor patients experience acute depletion of peripheral blood lymphocyte subsets following septic shock.Among various immune indicators, regulatory T cell count serves as an independent predictor of short-term mortality risk.Evaluating baseline immune function in such patients may help optimize treatment strategies and improve overall prognosis.

To explore the advantages of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) and integrative TCM-Western medicine approaches in the treatment of diabetic microvascular complications (DMC), refine key pathophysiological insights and treatment principles, and promote academic innovation and strategic research planning in the prevention and treatment of DMC. The 38th session of the Expert Salon on Diseases Responding Specifically to Traditional Chinese Medicine, hosted by the China Association of Chinese Medicine, was held in Beijing, 2024. Experts in TCM, Western medicine, and interdisciplinary fields convened to conduct a systematic discussion on the pathogenesis, diagnostic and treatment challenges, and mechanism research related to DMC, ultimately forming a consensus on key directions. Four major research recommendations were proposed. The first is addressing clinical bottlenecks in the prevention and control of DMC by optimizing TCM-based evidence evaluation systems. The second is refining TCM core pathogenesis across DMC stages and establishing corresponding "disease-pattern-time" framework. The third is innovating mechanism research strategies to facilitate a shift from holistic regulation to targeted intervention in TCM. The fourth is advancing interdisciplinary collaboration to enhance the role of TCM in new drug development, research prioritization, and guideline formulation. TCM and integrative approaches offer distinct advantages in managing DMC. With a focus on the diseases responding specifically to TCM, strengthening evidence-based support and mechanism interpretation and promoting the integration of clinical care and research innovation will provide strong momentum for the modernization of TCM and the advancement of national health strategies.

Objective:To elucidate the correlation between phase angle and malnutrition and to determine the cut-off value for phase angle to predict malnutrition in pancreatic cancer patients.Methods:This prospective cross-sectional study enrolled patients with pancreatic cancer hospitalized in the Department of Hepato-pancreato biliary Surgery at Beijing Hospital between December 2021 and March 2024. Baseline data, diet survey results, and body composition of these patients were recorded. Phase angle was measured with the InBody 720(Biospace, Korea). The Global Leadership Initiative on Malnutrition (GLIM) criteria were used to diagnose malnutrition.Results:A total of 110 cases (75 males and 35 females) aged 29-87(63.00±12.37) years were included. The prevalence of malnutrition was 63.6% (70/111) among the patients. Patients were divided into malnutrition ( n=77) and non-malnutrition ( n=33) groups as per the GLIM criteria. Phase angle was significantly lower in the malnutrition group than in the non-malnutrition group ( t=-3.808, P<0.001). Positive correlations were found between phase angle and body mass index, appendicular skeletal muscle mass index, fat-free mass index , fat-free mass, total energy intake, total protein, albumin, and prealbumin (all P<0.05).After adjusting for sex and age, low phase Angle remained an independent risk factor for malnutrition ( OR=3.809, 95% CI: 1.150-12.612, P=0.029). The cut-off values of phase angle for predicting malnutrition were 4.43 for males (with a sensitivity of 0.955, specificity of 0.585, area under the curve of 0.636; 95% CI: 0.508-0.763, P=0.037) and 4.54 for females (with a sensitivity of 1.000, specificity of 0.708, area under the curve of 0.799; 95% CI: 0.653-0.946, P<0.001). Conclusion:Phase angle may serve as a valid and simple indicator of malnutrition in pancreatic cancer patients.

Objective:To investigate the characteristics of weight gain in the mid and late pregnancy of women with early pregnancy weight loss, and the relationship between weight gain and weight gain rate before the diagnosis of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) and GDM.Methods:A retrospective study was conducted on 2 614 singleton pregnant women who underwent prenatal care and delivered at Beijing Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital, Capital Medical University, from January 2014 to December 2021, and whose weight decreased compared to pre-pregnancy weight by 16 weeks of gestation. The rate of weight gain in mid and late pregnancy, also weight gain and weight gain rate at each stage were analyzed. Multivariate logistic regression was used to analyze the impact of total weight gain and weight gain rate at each stage before the diagnosis of GDM on the risk of GDM.Results:The rates of weight gain in mid and late pregnancy for women with early pregnancy weight loss who were underweight, normal weight, overweight, and obese before pregnancy were (0.60±0.15), (0.59±0.18), (0.53±0.20), and (0.42±0.20) kg/week, respectively, all higher than the "Chinese Recommended Standards for Weight Gain During Pregnancy" [which are (0.37-0.56), (0.26-0.48), (0.22-0.37), and (0.15-0.30) kg/week, respectively]. The weight gain rates at each stage of mid and late pregnancy in women with early pregnancy weight loss showed a "bimodal" trend, with the first peak in weight gain rate occurring at 16-20 or 20-24 weeks of gestation [weight gain rates for underweight, normal weight, overweight, and obese women before pregnancy were 0.75 kg/week (0.44-1.00 kg/week), 0.74 kg/week (0.50-1.00 kg/week), 0.63 kg/week (0.39-0.86 kg/week), and 0.50 kg/week (0.25-0.74 kg/week), respectively] and the second peak occurring at 28-32 weeks [weight gain rates for underweight, normal weight, overweight, and obese women before pregnancy were 0.63 kg/week (0.50-1.00 kg/week), 0.63 kg/week (0.38- 0.88 kg/week), 0.60 kg/week (0.25-0.88 kg/week), and 0.50 kg/week (0.22-0.75 kg/week). As of 28 weeks and 36 weeks of gestation, 53.7% (1 404/2 614) and 77.4% (1 946/2 512) of pregnant women, respectively, reached the lower limit of the recommended weight gain for the corresponding gestational weeks. No association was found between insufficient weight gain ( aOR=0.828, 95% CI: 0.639-1.071, P=0.151) or excessive weight gain ( aOR=0.936, 95% CI: 0.598-1.465, P=0.773) before the diagnosis of GDM and the risk of GDM. However, obese women with a weight loss greater than 5% of their pre-pregnancy weight in early pregnancy and a rapid weight gain rate (> P 75) between 16-20 weeks of gestation had an increased risk of developing GDM ( aOR=32.870, 95% CI: 1.625-664.775, P=0.023). Conclusions:In clinical practice, dynamic monitoring of weight changes at various stages of pregnancy in women who lose weight in early pregnancy is recommended. Targeted weight management during mid-pregnancy for women who are obese before pregnancy and experience significant weight loss in early pregnancy may help prevent excessive gestational weight gain and decrease the risk of GDM.
