Compared to traditional suturing, lung stapling using automatic staplers offers advantages such as smaller trauma, faster wound healing, ease of operation, and lower complication rates, making it widely used in clinical practice. However, there are significant differences in bronchial tissue thickness at different anatomical locations, and the market is flooded with various types of staplers. Currently, there is a lack of recommended stapling schemes for bronchial staplers at different anatomical locations. This article reviews the development and application of automatic staplers and summarizes some types of staplers that are currently used in clinical practice, with the aim of promoting the formation of individualized stapler selection protocols for minimally invasive thoracic surgery based on the Chinese population.

Objective:To investigate the association between exposure to ambient air pollutants and pregnancy outcomes in patients undergoing in vitro fertilization (IVF)/intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI), and to clarify the susceptible windows of exposure. Methods:A retrospective cohort study was conducted on 2 071 infertile women aged ≤40 years who underwent the first fresh cleavage stage embryo transfer in the Department of Reproductive Medicine of the First Affiliated Hospital of Harbin Medical University from January 2014 to December 2021. Patients were divided into heating season group and non-heating season group based on whether the start date of gonadotropin (Gn) was during the heating season or not, and baseline data and pregnancy outcomes were compared between the two groups. Daily average levels of six criteria air pollutants [fine particulate matter (PM 2.5), inhalable particulate matter (PM 10), nitrogen dioxide (NO 2), sulfur dioxide (SO 2), carbon monoxide (CO), ozone (O 3) max-8 h] in four discrete periods were obtained. The four discrete periods included period 1, 75 d prior to Gn start to Gn start; period 2, Gn start to oocyte retrieval; period 3, oocyte retrieval to day 3 embryo transfer; period 4, embryo transfer to serum human chorionic gonadotropin test. The primary outcome was ongoing pregnancy. A multiple logistic regression model was used to investigate the association between air pollutant exposure and pregnancy outcomes, adjusted for important confounders. Results:The biochemical pregnancy rate [51.7% (465/900)], the clinical pregnancy rate [45.2% (407/900)], the ongoing pregnancy rate [38.2% (344/900)], and the live birth rate [36.1% (325/900)] in the heating season group were significantly lower than those in the non-heating season group [56.3% (659/1 171), P=0.037; 51.2% (599/1 171), P=0.007; 44.3% (519/1 171), P=0.005; 41.3% (484/1 171), P=0.016]. A significant negative correlation was observed between SO 2 and NO 2 exposure and ongoing pregnancy in all four time windows. SO 2 increased by one interquartile range (IQR), corresponding to adjusted OR (a OR) and 95% CI were 0.92 (0.85-0.99), 0.92 (0.87-0.99), 0.93 (0.87-0.99) and 0.93 (0.87-0.99), respectively. An IQR increase in NO 2 was also significantly associated with decreased odds of ongoing pregnancy (a OR=0.83, 95% CI: 0.72-0.95; a OR=0.87, 95% CI: 0.77-0.97; a OR=0.90, 95% CI: 0.81-1.00; a OR=0.85, 95% CI: 0.77-0.95, respectively). During period 1 and period 4, we observed adverse effects of PM 10 exposure on ongoing pregnancy (a OR=0.86, 95% CI: 0.75-0.98; a OR=0.89, 95% CI: 0.80-1.00, respectively). In Period 1, PM 2.5 exposure was significantly associated with reduced odds for ongoing pregnancy with a OR=0.86, 95% CI: 0.75-0.99. In addition, NO 2 exposure was associated with a decreased likelihood of achieving clinical pregnancy across all exposure windows except for period 3. However, no associations were noted with CO and O 3. Conclusion:Ambient air pollution has detrimental effects on pregnancy outcomes in patients undergoing fresh embryo transfer. Notably, the adverse impacts were also observed during preantral-antral follicle transition stage before IVF/ICSI treatment. A significant negative association between NO 2 exposure and pregnancy outcomes was observed in almost all exposure windows, indicating that NO 2 may be the main air pollutant associated with adverse pregnancy outcomes.

Abstract
The outbreak of tuberculosis in campus shows a profound impact on academic learning and mental health of students, which might result in more serious social problems. The present editorial addresses weak links in the school tuberculosis prevention and control. Disease prevention and control institutions, medical institutions, education administrative departments and schools need to clarify work responsibilities, strictly implement the school tuberculosis prevention and control laws, regulations and management guidelines, and coordinate with multiple departments, with the aim to strengthen early warning capacity for campus tuberculosis, improve tuberculosis screening and risk assessment of relevant personnel, and implement the health checkup of schools and faculty, as well as the screening, diagnosis, registration, treatment and follow up of students cases. To further improve tuberculosis control across China, strengthening the awareness of tuberculosis prevention and control among institutions and the public, and improving adherence to tuberculosis treatment, as well as moving forward from passive to active tuberculosis monitoring and early prevention, reducing the occurrence of tuberculosis outbreak in school should be prioritized, so as to promote the smooth development of tuberculosis prevention and control work in China.

Objective:Recently, increasing number of lung cancer patients benefit from immune-checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs). However, the data of Chinese small cell lung cancer (SCLC) patients is limited. This study aims to analyze the response and survival data of ICIs treatment in SCLC and to explore the predictive biomarkers.Methods:Forty-seven SCLC patients who received ICIs treatment from Peking University Cancer Hospital from May 2017 to September 2019 was recruited. Clinical characteristics including sex, age, smoking status, ICIs strategy, PD-L1 expression and therapeutic efficacy were collected to explore the clinical predictive biomarkers for SCLC ICIs treatment.Results:Among the 47 patients, 18 (38.3%) cases were partial repose (PR), 11 (23.4%) were stable disease (SD), 18 (38.3%) were progressive disease (PD), and the objective response rate (ORR) was 38.3%, disease control rate (DCR) was 61.7%, the median progression-free survival (PFS) was 5.3 months. ICIs monotherapy accounts for 27.7%, the ORR was 15.4%, DCR was 53.8%, median PFS was 2.7 months. Combined therapy accounts for 72.3%, the ORR was 47.1%, DCR was 64.7%, median PFS was 5.4 months. Fourteen (29.8%) patients received ICIs as the first line treatment, their ORR was 85.7%, DCR was 100%, median PFS was 9.1 month. The ORR was not related to the age, sex, body mass index (BMI), smoking status and programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) expression ( P>0.05). The ORRs were higher in patients underwent PD-L1 monotherapy ( P=0.001), combined therapy ( P=0.002) and received ICIs as the first line treatment ( P<0.001). Log-rank analysis indicated that the PFS of female patients were 12.0 months, significantly longer than 4.4 months of male patients in ICIs treatment ( P=0.038). Patients who received PD-L1 monotherapy, combined treatment, or ICIs as the first line treatment had longer PFS than their counterparts, though no statistical significant was observed ( P>0.05). Cox multivariate analysis showed that, the gender was not an independent predictor for PFS in ICIs treatment ( HR=3.777, 95% CI=0.974~30.891, P=0.054). Conclusions:Immunotherapy is an effective treatment strategy for SCLC. Patients who receive combined ICIs treatment, first line ICIs treatment and PD-L1 treatment may get greater benefits. PD-L1 expression cannot predict the response and PFS in SCLC ICIs treatment.
