OBJECTIVE To introduce the development of an intelligent prescription review decision-support system for anti-tumor drugs and assess its clinical application outcomes. METHODS Relevant data sources， including national and local pharmaceutical administration policies， clinical practice guidelines/consensus， hospital information systems data， and genetic testing results， were integrated. Adhering to the principles of structure， standardization and dynamic updating， a knowledge base covering chemotherapeutic， targeted and immunotherapeutic agents was constructed using a dual-dimensional modeling approach that combined “drug attributes” and “clinical contexts”. This knowledge base was then embedded into the hospital’s electronic medical order system to establish the prescription review decision-support system. The application and performance of the system were evaluated at Shanghai Sixth People’s Hospital Affiliated to Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine. RESULTS A knowledge base containing 18 318 prescription review rules for anti-tumor drugs was constructed， and a closed-loop prescription review system was successfully established， encompassing pre-prescription real-time intervention， in-process interactive review， and post-prescription evaluation and analysis. From 2021 to 2024， the system generated a total of 57 879 alerts for prescriptions of five typical categories of anti-tumor drugs. For platinum-containing prescriptions， 22 577 alerts were generated， with Cisplatin for injection （lyophilized） being the most frequently alerted drug （13 445 alerts）， and “ototoxicity risk due to combined use” alerts remained high （7 682 alerts）. For methotrexate-containing prescriptions， 3 721 alerts were recorded， primarily related to “precaution-related issues” （76.4%， 2 843/3 721）. For doxorubicin-containing prescriptions， 17 301 alerts were triggered， primarily related to “dosage and administration” （14 315 alerts）. For human epidermal growth factor receptor 2-targeted agents-containing prescriptions， 1 007 alerts were issued， mostly related to “reimbursement restrictions” （956 alerts）. For programmed death-1/programmed death-ligand 1 inhibitors-containing prescriptions， the alerts increased year by year， totaling 13 273 alerts， primarily related to “inappropriate indication” （9 118 alerts）. Over the 4 years， the physician response rates to system alerts were 21.4%， 27.1%， 33.5% and 51.6%， respectively. CONCLUSIONS An intelligent decision-support system for anti-tumor drug prescription review， encompassing a closed-loop process of “real-time pre-event intervention， interactive in-event prescription review， post-event evaluation and analysis”， has been successfully constructed and implemented throughout the entire workflow. There is a discernible trend in this hospital， where the focus on monitoring anti-tumor drugs is shifting towards immunotherapy drugs. Additionally， the acceptance rate of physicians regarding prescription review opinions has been steadily increasing year by year.

Malignant tumors are one of the major causes of death in the population. Owing to limited clinical treatments， susceptibility to drug resistance， and generally low cure rates of conventional therapies， new treatment strategies need to be explored. Compared with existing therapies， traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） has unique advantages， such as low side effects， in the treatment of malignant tumors. Ferroptosis is a recently characterized form of regulated cell death associated with iron metabolism imbalance， lipid peroxidation， antioxidant system malfunction and other aspects. Studies have shown that TCM regulates Fe³⁺， Fe²⁺， glutathione， glutathione peroxidase 4 and other substances related to ferroptosis， thereby affecting lipid peroxidation and antioxidant processes， and then inducing ferroptosis. Through these mechanisms， TCM plays a key role in inhibiting the growth and spread of tumor cells and is involved in multiple stages of malignant tumor progression. In this study， we systematically retrieved the literature indexed in PbuMed and China National Knowledge Infrastructure （CNKI） with the keywords TCM， ferroptosis， and malignant tumors. We outlined the mechanisms of ferroptosis and its association with malignant tumors， and summarized the research progress on the prevention and treatment of malignant tumors through the modulation of ferroptosis by TCM monomers， single herbs， and compounds. The study aims to provide new perspectives for the prevention and treatment of malignant tumors by TCM.

ObjectiveThis study aims to investigate the action mechanism by which Xiaozheng Zhitong paste （XZP） alleviates bone cancer pain （BCP） by regulating programmed death protein 1 （PD-1）/programmed death-ligand 1 （PD-L1） pathway-induced osteoclast formation. MethodsThirty female C57BL/6 mice were randomly allocated into the following groups （n=6 per group）： normal control group， model group， low‑dose XZP group （31.5 g·kg^-1）， high‑dose XZP group （63 g·kg^-1）， and PD‑1 inhibitor （Niv） group. A bone cancer pain （BCP） model was established by injecting Lewis lung carcinoma cells. Mice in the normal control and model groups received topical application of a blank paste matrix at the wound site. Mice in the low‑ and high‑dose XZP groups were treated with XZP applied topically twice daily. Mice in the Niv group were topically administered the blank paste matrix and additionally received Niv via tail‑vein injection every two days. All interventions were continued for 21 days. During this period， behavioral tests were performed to assess mechanical， motor， and thermal nociceptive sensitivities. After 21 days， all mice were euthanized， and bone tissue from the operated side was collected for sectioning and preservation. Tartrate‑resistant acid phosphatase （TRAP） staining was used to evaluate osteoclast expression in the lesioned bone tissue. Immunohistochemistry was performed to detect the expression of Runt‑related transcription factor 2 （Runx2） in the lesioned bone tissue. Immunofluorescence was employed to assess the expression of PD‑1 and PD‑L1 in the lesioned bone tissue. ResultsCompared with the normal group， the model group showed significantly decreased limb mechanical withdrawal threshold， spontaneous paw flinching， and thermal withdrawal latency （P<0.01）， increased number of osteoclasts in the lesioned bone tissue （P<0.01）， and reduced expression of Runx2 （P<0.01）. Compared with the model group， the BCP mice in the XZP low-dose group， XZP high-dose group， and Niv group exhibited increased limb mechanical withdrawal threshold， movement scores， and thermal withdrawal latency （P<0.01）. The XZP low-dose group showed no significant changes in osteoclast number or Runx2 expression， while the XZP high-dose group and Niv group demonstrated significantly reduced osteoclast numbers （P<0.01） and significantly increased Runx2 expression （P<0.01）. In the lesioned bone tissue of BCP mice， the XZP low-dose group showed no significant decrease in the percentage of PD-1 expression， but a decrease in the percentage of PD-L1 expression （P<0.05）. In contrast， both the XZP high-dose group and the Niv group exhibited significant reductions in the percentages of PD-1 and PD-L1 expression （P<0.01）. ConclusionXZP alleviates the pain of mice with BCP by blocking the PD-1/PD-L1 pathway to inhibit osteoclastogenesis.

ObjectiveThe paper aims to investigate the mechanism by which Xiaozheng Zhitong paste （XZP） alleviates bone cancer pain （BCP） through regulating the PTEN-induced putative kinase 1 （PINK1）/Parkin-mediated mitophagy-NOD-like receptor protein 3 （NLRP3） inflammasome pathway to suppress microglial pyroptosis. MethodsLipopolysaccharide （LPS） and LPS-adenosine triphosphate （ATP） were used to establish an inflammation and pyroptosis model in microglial cells. The cells were randomly divided into the following groups： control group， LPS group， LPS+low-dose XZP group， LPS+high-dose XZP group， LPS-ATP group， LPS-ATP+low-dose XZP group， LPS-ATP+high-dose XZP group， LPS-ATP+XZP group， and LPS-ATP+XZP+CsA group. Techniques including terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated dUTP nick-end labeling （TUNEL） staining， enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay （ELISA）， Western blot， and confocal fluorescence staining were employed to assess the effects of XZP on microglial apoptosis， inflammatory cytokine release， inflammasome activation， pyroptosis， and mitophagy. ResultsIn vitro experiments showed that compared with the blank group， the LPS group exhibited significantly increased levels of microglial apoptosis and pro-inflammatory factors interleukin （IL）-1β， IL-6， and tumor necrosis factor-α （TNF-α）（P<0.01）， along with significantly upregulated protein expression of inducible nitric oxide synthase （iNOS）， cyclooxygenase-2 （COX-2）， and phosphorylated nuclear factor-κB p65 （p-NF-κB p65） （P<0.01）. Compared with the LPS group， the high-dose LPS-XZP group significantly reduced the level of apoptosis （P<0.01） and the content of the aforementioned pro-inflammatory factors （P<0.01）. Both the low- and high-dose LPS-XZP groups dose-dependently downregulated the protein expression of iNOS， COX-2， and p-NF-κB p65 （P<0.05， P<0.01）. Compared with the blank group， the LPS-ATP group showed significantly upregulated expression of pyroptosis-related proteins， including Caspase-1/pro-Caspase-1， N-terminal fragment of gasdermin D （GSDMD-N）/full-length gasdermin D （GSDMD-F）， NLRP3， apoptosis-associated speck-like protein containing a CARD （ASC）， IL-1β precursor （pro-IL-1β）， and mature IL-1β （P<0.01）. The levels of pyroptotic factors IL-1β and IL-18 were significantly elevated （P<0.01）， and membrane pore formation and intracellular reactive oxygen species （ROS） levels were significantly increased （P<0.01）. Compared with the LPS-ATP group， both the low- and high-dose LPS-ATP+XZP groups dose-dependently downregulated the expression of the aforementioned pyroptosis-related proteins （P<0.05， P<0.01）. The low-dose LPS-ATP+XZP group reduced IL-1β levels （P<0.01）， while the high-dose group reduced both IL-1β and IL-18 levels （P<0.01） Both the low- and high-dose LPS-ATP+XZP groups dose-dependently reduced membrane pore formation and intracellular ROS production （P<0.01）. Compared with the blank group， the LPS-ATP group showed significantly reduced expression of mitophagy-related proteins PINK1 and Parkin， and a decreased ratio of microtubule-associated protein 1 light chain 3Ⅱ（LC3Ⅱ） to LC3Ⅰ（P<0.01）， while p62 expression was significantly increased （P<0.01）. Mitochondrial ROS levels were significantly enhanced （P<0.01）. Compared with the LPS-ATP group， both the low- and high-dose LPS-ATP+XZP groups dose-dependently reversed the expression of these proteins （P<0.05， P<0.01） and reduced mitochondrial ROS levels （P<0.01）. After treatment with the mitophagy inhibitor cyclosporin A （CsA）， the beneficial effects of XZP on mitochondrial function and its inhibitory effects on pyroptosis-related protein expression were significantly reversed （P<0.05， P<0.01）. ConclusionXZP reduces ROS levels by activating PINK1/Parkin-mediated mitophagy， thereby inhibiting NLRP3 inflammasome activation and microglial pyroptosis， which provides new molecular evidence for the mechanism by which XZP alleviates BCP.

ObjectiveTo investigate the effects and underlying mechanisms of Xiaozheng Zhitong Paste （XZP） on bone cancer pain （BCP）. MethodsThirty female BALB/c mice were randomly divided into five groups： a Sham group， a BCP group， a BCP+low-dose XZP group， a BCP+high-dose XZP group， and a BCP+high-dose XZP + protease-activated receptor 2 （PAR2） agonist GB-110 group. BCP mice model was constructed by injecting Lewis lung carcinoma cells into the femoral cavity of the right leg， which was followed by being treated with XZP for 21 d. After 21 d， the mice were sacrificed. Nissl staining was used to evaluate the survival of spinal cord neurons. Immunofluorescence staining was conducted to localize ionized calcium-binding adapter molecule 1 （Iba1） and neuronal nuclear antigen （NeuN） in spinal cord tissue， thereby assessing microglial activation and neuronal survival. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay （ELISA） was employed to measure the levels of interleukin-1β （IL-1β）， tumor necrosis factor-α （TNF-α）， interleukin-6 （IL-6）， transforming growth factor-β （TGF-β）， interleukin-4 （IL-4）， and interleukin-10 （IL-10） in spinal cord tissue. Real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction （Real-time PCR） was used to detect mRNA expression levels associated with M1/M2 polarization of microglia. Western blot analysis was performed to examine the expression of proteins related to microglial polarization as well as those involved in the PAR2/nuclear factor kappa B （NF-κB）/NOD-like receptor protein 3 （NLRP3） signaling pathway in the spinal cord. ResultsCompared with the Sham group， the spinal cord neurons were damaged， the number of Nissl-positive spinal cord neurons in the spinal cord tissue was significantly reduced （P<0.01）， and the rate of NeuN-positive cells was significantly decreased （P<0.01）. The spinal cord microglia were activated， the inflammatory level of the spinal cord tissue was enhanced， and Iba1 staining was significantly enhanced （P<0.01）. The levels of IL-1β， TNF-α， IL-6， TGF-β， IL-4 and IL-10 were significantly increased （P<0.01）. The mRNA expressions of IL-1β， TNF-α and inducible nitric oxide synthase （iNOS） were significantly increased （P<0.01）， and the expression of PAR2， NLRP3， ASC and NF-κB p65 proteins in the spinal cord tissue of the BCP mice was significantly enhanced （P<0.01）. Compared with the BCP group， high-dose XZP treatment significantly increased the number of Nissl-positive spinal cord neurons in the BCP mice （P<0.01）， significantly enhanced the rate of NeuN-positive cells in the spinal cord tissue， and significantly weakened Iba1 staining （P<0.01）. In addition， the levels of IL-1β， TNF-α， and IL-6 were significantly decreased， while the levels of TGF-β， IL-4， and IL-10 were significantly increased （P<0.05， P<0.01）. The mRNA expression levels of IL-1β， TNF-α， and iNOS were decreased， whereas those of cluster of differentiation 206 （CD206）， arginase-1 （Arg-1）， and YM1/2 were significantly increased （P<0.05， P<0.01）. Low-dose and high-dose XZP treatment significantly decreased the expression of PAR2， NLRP3， ASC， and NF-κB p65 proteins in the spinal cord tissue （P<0.05， P<0.01）. These effects could all be significantly eliminated by the PAR2 agonist GB-110. ConclusionXZP can mitigate BCP in mice， which may be achieved through blocking the activated PAR2/NF-κB/NLRP3 pathway.

ObjectiveThe paper aims to investigate the action mechanism by which the Xiaozheng Zhitong paste （XZP） relieves bone cancer pain （BCP）. MethodsA model of mice with BCP was established by using Lewis tumor cells. The therapeutic effects of XZP， the ferroptosis inhibitor Ferrostatin-1 （Fer-1）， and the nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 （Nrf2） inhibitor Brusatol （Bru） on BCP were examined. Mice were randomly divided into the Sham operation group， BCP group， BCP+XZP-L group， BCP+XZP-H group， BCP+Fer-1 group， and BCP+XZP-H+Bru group， with six mice in each group. Pain behavior tests were conducted on the mice to assess pain levels. Colorimetric assays were employed to measure ferroptosis-related factors in serum and spinal cord tissue including Fe， malondialdehyde （MDA）， reactive oxygen species （ROS）， and superoxide dismutase （SOD）. Immunofluorescence staining was used to assess ROS production in spinal cord tissue. Transmission electron microscopy was used to observe the ultrastructure of mitochondria in lumbar spinal cord tissue. Quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction （Real-time PCR） was employed to detect mRNA expression of Nrf2， heme oxygenase-1 （HO-1）， glutathione peroxidase 4 （GPX4）， and solute carrier family 7 member 11 （SLC7A11） in spinal cord neuron tissue. The protein expression of Nrf2， HO-1， GPX4， and SLC7A11 in spinal cord neurons was measured by Western blot. ResultsCompared with the Sham group， mice in the BCP group exhibited significantly reduced limb usage scores， mechanical foot withdrawal thresholds， and thermal foot withdrawal thresholds （P<0.01）. Serum and lumbar spinal cord tissue levels of Fe， MDA， and reactive oxygen species （ROS） were significantly elevated （P<0.05）， while superoxide dismutase （SOD） levels were significantly decreased （P<0.05）. Lumbar spinal cord mitochondrial structural damage was observed， and mRNA and protein expression of Nrf2， HO-1， GPX4， and SLC7A11 were significantly downregulated （P<0.01）. Compared with the BCP group， both low- and high-dose XZP groups improved the aforementioned pain behavioral indicators （P<0.05，P<0.01）， reduced ferroptosis-related biomarkers including Fe， MDA， and ROS levels （P<0.05）， increased SOD levels （P<0.05，P<0.01）， alleviated mitochondrial damage， and upregulated Nrf2， HO-1， GPX4， SLC7A11 mRNA and protein expression （P<0.05，P<0.01）. The high-dose XZP group exhibited comparable efficacy to Fer-1 in alleviating pain and inhibiting ferroptosis. Following Bru administration， XZP's effects on pain behavioral indicators， regulation of ferroptosis-related markers， mitochondrial structural protection， and activation of the Nrf2/HO-1/GPX4/SLC7A11 pathway were significantly reversed （P<0.05，P<0.01）. ConclusionExternal application of XZP alleviates pain symptoms in BCP mice by activating the Nrf2/HO-1/GPX4/SLC7A11 pathway， thereby inhibiting ferroptosis and neuronal damage in spinal cord neurons.

Cancer pain is one of the most common complications in patients with malignant tumors， severely affecting their quality of life. Its pathogenesis involves complex interactions among the tumor microenvironment， peripheral sensitization， and central sensitization. The tumor microenvironment initiates peripheral pain sensitization by secreting algogenic mediators， activating ion channels and related receptor signaling pathways， driving abnormal osteoclast activation， and mediating neuro-immune crosstalk. Persistent nociceptive input further triggers increased excitability of central neurons， activation of glial cells， and neuroinflammatory cascade reactions， ultimately leading to central pain sensitization. Although traditional opioid drugs can alleviate pain to some extent， they still have many limitations， such as incomplete analgesia， drug tolerance， and adverse reactions. In recent years， traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） compounds have made continuous progress in the treatment of cancer pain. Studies have shown that they can not only effectively relieve cancer pain and reduce the dosage of opioids but also significantly improve patients' quality of life. TCM treatment of cancer pain follows the principle of syndrome differentiation and treatment. Based on this， targeted therapeutic principles have been proposed， including promoting blood circulation， removing stasis， regulating Qi， and unblocking collaterals； tonifying the kidney， replenishing essence， warming Yang， and dispersing cold， activating blood， resolving phlegm， detoxifying， and dispersing nodules， as well as strengthening the body， replenishing deficiency， and harmonizing Qi and blood. Modern research indicates that TCM compounds can exert synergistic effects through multiple pathways， inhibiting inflammatory responses， regulating nerve conduction， intervening in bone metabolism and related gene expression， thereby producing anti-inflammatory and bone-protective effects to achieve the goal of alleviating cancer pain. This article systematically elaborates on the pathogenesis of cancer pain， the clinical application of TCM in treating cancer pain， and its related mechanisms of action， aiming to provide a theoretical basis and new strategies for the integration of TCM into comprehensive cancer pain management.

ObjectiveTo systematically compare the effects of diverse electromagnetic stimulation protocols on hand function and activities of daily living (ADL) in stroke patients using network meta-analysis (NMA), and screen the optimal stimulation strategy for post-stroke hand dysfunction rehabilitation. MethodsNMA was performed in accordance with the PRISMA-NMA statement. Databases of CNKI, Wanfang data, VIP, CBM, PubMed, Web of Science and Embase were searched from database inception to April, 2026 for eligible randomized controlled trials (RCTs) comparing different electromagnetic stimulation protocols for post-stroke hand impairment. The Cochrane Risk of Bias tool and PEDro scale were used to assess methodological quality of included studies, while the GRADE system was adopted to grade evidence quality of primary outcomes of Fugl-Meyer Assessment-Upper Extremities (FMA-UE) and modified Barthel Index (MBI). After literature screening, data extraction and bias evaluation, RevMan 5.4 and Stata 17.0 were used for meta-analysis and NMA. ResultsA total of 22 RCT involving 17 electromagnetic stimulation protocols were finally included. The PEDro scores ranged from six to ten. The top five protocols for improving FMA-UE score were repetitive peripheral magnetic stimulation (rPMS) + repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS), intermittent theta-burst stimulation (iTBS) + rPMS, iTBS + transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS), transcutaneous electrical acupoint stimulation (TEAS) and contralaterally controlled functional electrical stimulation (CCFES). tDCS was the most effective on MBI, followed by TEAS and iTBS+rPMS. Evidence quality for FMA-UE and MBI was moderate. Funnel plots suggested low risk of publication bias, and consistency tests verified good coherence between direct and indirect comparisons in network models. ConclusionElectromagnetic stimulation significantly facilitates upper limb and hand functional recovery, and improves ADL in stroke patients. The combined central-peripheral magnetic stimulation protocol may be the most effective on motor rehabilitation, whereas tDCS on ADL.

ObjectiveTo explore the pharmacological mechanism involved in the treatment of allergic cough （AC） by Xiaoer Huatan Zhike granules （XEHT） based on proteomics and network pharmacology. MethodsAfter sensitization by intraperitoneal injection of 1 mL suspension containing 2 mg ovalbumin （OVA） and 100 mg aluminum hydroxide， a guinea pig model of allergic cough was constructed by nebulization with 1% OVA. The modeled guinea pigs were randomized into the model， low-， medium- and high-dose （1， 5， 20 g·kg^-1， respectively） XEHT， and sodium montelukast （1 mg·kg^-1） groups （n=6）， and another 6 guinea pigs were selected as the blank group. The guinea pigs in drug administration groups were administrated with the corresponding drugs by gavage， and those in the blank and model groups received the same volume of normal saline by gavage， 1 time·d^-1. After 10 consecutive days of drug administration， the guinea pigs were stimulated by 1% OVA nebulization， and the coughs were observed. The pathological changes in the lung tissue were observed by hematoxylin-eosin staining. The enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay was performed to measure the levels of C-reactive protein （CRP）， interleukin-6 （IL-6）， tumor necrosis factor-α （TNF-α）， superoxide dismutase （SOD）， and malondialdehyde （MDA） in the bronchoalveolar lavage fluid （BALF） and immunoglobulin G （IgG） and immunoglobulin A （IgA） in the serum. Immunohistochemistry （IHC） was employed to observe the expression of IL-6 and TNF-α in the lung tissue. Transmission electron microscopy was employed observe the alveolar type Ⅱ epithelial cell ultrastructure. Real-time PCR was employed to determine the mRNA levels of IL-6， interleukin-1β （IL-1β）， and TNF-α in the lung tissue. Label-free proteomics was used to detect the differential proteins among groups. Network pharmacology was used to predict the targets of XEHT in treating AC. The Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes （KEGG） enrichment analysis was performed to search for the same pathways from the results of proteomics and network pharmacology. ResultsCompared with the blank group， the model group showed increased coughs （P<0.01）， elevated levels of CRP， TNF-α， IL-6， and MDA and lowered level of SOD in the BALF （P<0.05， P<0.01）， elevated levels of IgA and IgG in the serum （P<0.05， P<0.01）， congestion of the lung tissue and infiltration of inflammatory cells， increased expression of IL-6 and TNF-α （P<0.01）， large areas of low electron density edema in type Ⅱ epithelial cells， obvious swelling and vacuolization of the organelles， karyopyknosis or sparse and dissolved chromatin， and up-regulated mRNA levels of IL-6， IL-1β， and TNF-α （P<0.01）. Compared with the model group， the drug administration groups showed reduced coughs （P<0.01）， lowered levels of CRP， TNF-α， IL-6， and MDA and elevated level of SOD in the BALF （P<0.05， P<0.01）， alleviated lung tissue congestion， inflammatory cell infiltration， and type Ⅱ epithelial cell injury， and decreased expression of IL-6 and TNF-α （P<0.01）. In addition， the medium-dose XEHT group and the montelukast sodium group showcased lowered serum levels of IgA and IgG （P<0.05， P<0.01）. The medium- and high-dose XEHT groups and the montelukast sodium showed down-regulated mRNA levels of IL-6， IL-1β， and TNF-α and the low-dose XEHT group showed down-regulated mRNA levels of IL-6 and TNF-α （P<0.05， P<0.01）. Phospholipase D， mammalian target of rapamycin （mTOR）， and epidermal growth factor receptor family of receptor tyrosine kinase （ErbB） signaling pathways were the common pathways predicted by both proteomics and network pharmacology. ConclusionProteomics combined with network pharmacology reveal that XEHT can ameliorate AC by regulating the phospholipase D， mTOR， and ErbB signaling pathways.
