OBJECTIVE To evaluate the efficacy and safety of immune checkpoint inhibitors （ICIs） combined with neoadjuvant chemotherapy in the treatment of early triple-negative breast cancer （TNBC）. METHODS Randomized controlled trials （RCTs） comparing ICIs combined with neoadjuvant chemotherapy （experimental group） versus neoadjuvant chemotherapy alone （control group） were retrieved from PubMed， Cochrane Library， Embase， Web of Science， CNKI， Wanfang Data， and VIP databases， as well as relevant studies published at oncology academic conferences. The search period was from database inception to June 30， 2025. After literature screening， data extraction， and quality assessment， a meta-analysis was performed by using RevMan 5.4 software. RESULTS A total of 6 RCTs involving 3 786 patients were finally included. The meta-analysis results showed that the experimental group had superior event-free survival [HR＝0.73， 95%CI （0.62， 0.85）， P＜0.000 1]， overall survival [HR＝0.69， 95%CI （0.57， 0.84）， P＝0.000 3]， and pathological complete response （pCR） [OR＝1.57， 95%CI （1.37， 1.80）， P＜0.000 01] compared to the control group. The incidence of ≥grade 3 adverse event （AE）， severe AE （SAE）， and ≥ grade 3 immune-related adverse event （irAE） in the experimental group was significantly higher than that in the control group. There was no statistically significant difference between the two groups in the incidence of any AE or any irAE （P＞0.05）. Subgroup analysis revealed that， regardless of programmed cell death ligand 1 expression status （negative or positive），the pCR in the experimental group was significantly higher than that in the control group （P＜0.05）. Additionally， the pCR of the patients with positive lymph nodes in the experimental group was significantly higher to that in the ontrol group （P＜0.05）. There was no statistically significant difference in pCR between the two groups with negative lymph nodes （P＝0.09）. CONCLUSIONS ICIs combined with neoadjuvant chemotherapy can significantly improve event-free survival and overall survival in patients with TNBC， providing patients with long-term survival benefits. However， the risk of ≥ grade 3 AE， SAE and ≥ grade 3 irAE has increased.

OBJECTIVE To explore the effect of Jinkui shenqi pill and its potential mechanism on diabetic nephropathy-related osteoporosis （DNOP） in rats. METHODS The rats were randomly divided into blank control group， control group， model group， Jingui shenqi pill low-， medium- and high-dose groups （0.62， 1.24， 2.48 g/kg）， and positive control group （denosumab 3 mg/ kg）， with 12 cases in each group. Except for the blank control group and the control group， models of DNOP were constructed in the remaining groups by high-glucose and high-fat forage， 3% fructose solution for feeding+intraperitoneal injection of streptozotocin solution. At 2 d after successful molding， Jingui shenqi pill low-， medium- and high-dose groups， and positive control group were given intragastric administration or subcutaneous injection of the corresponding drugs， once a day， for consecutive 8 weeks. After the last administration， bone mineral density （BMD） and serum bone metabolism-related indexes [osteocalcin （OC）， calcium， phosphorus， alkaline phosphatase （ALP）， tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase （TRAP）] were detected. The pathological changes of right femoral tissues were observed， and the expressions of receptor activator of NF-κB ligand （RANKL）/receptor activator of NF-κB （RANK）/osteoprotegerin （OPG） pathway-related mRNAs and proteins in left femoral tissues were detected. RESULTS Compared with the blank control group and the control group， there was rupture of bone trabecula and severe structural damage in the model group， and tissue space was obvious. BMD and ALP activities， mRNA and protein expressions of OPG were significantly decreased or down-regulated， while the levels of OC， calcium and phosphorus， TRAP activity， mRNA and protein expressions of RANKL and RANK were significantly increased or up-regulated （P＜0.05）. Compared with the model group， the number of bone trabeculae was increased in all Jingui shenqi pill groups， and the arrangement of bone trabeculae was more regular and dense. The above indexes generally were improved in a certain dose-dependent manner （P＜0.05）. CONCLUSIONS Jingui shenqi pill can promote osteogenesis and regulate the balance of bone metabolism in DNOP rats， which may be related to down-regulating the expressions of RANKL and RANK， and up-regulating the expression of OPG.

OBJECTIVE From the perspective of China’s health system， to evaluate the economic efficiency of Irinotecan liposome+fluorouracil+calcium folinate+oxaliplatin（NALIRIFOX regimen） versus paclitaxel （albumin-bound） combined with gemcitabine （AG regimen） in the first-line treatment of metastatic pancreatic cancer. METHODS A dynamic Markov model was constructed based on the data from the NAPOLI 3 clinical trial， with a cycle period of 28 days and a simulation time limit of 5 years. Incremental cost-effectiveness ratio （ICER） and quality-adjusted life year （QALY） were used as the model output indicators. The willingness-to-pay （WTP） threshold was set at three times China’s 2024 per capita gross domestic product （GDP）， and a discount rate of 5% was adopted. A cost-utility analysis was conducted to analyze the economic efficiency of the NALIRIFOX regimen compared to the AG regimen. Univariate sensitivity analysis and probabilistic sensitivity analysis were used to evaluate the robustness of the model results， and scenario analysis was conducted by reducing the cost of irinotecan liposome by 60% and 70%. RESULTS The base-case analysis showed that the ICER of the NALIRIFOX regimen was 854 669.96 yuan/QALY compared to the AG regimen， which was greater than the WTP threshold （287 247 yuan/QALY）， indicating that the NALIRIFOX regimen was not economically efficient. The univariate sensitivity analysis results indicated that the discount rate， the cost of irinotecan liposome， the utility value of the progression-free survival state， and the utility value of the disease progression state had a significant impact on the ICER. The probabilistic sensitivity analysis results showed that under the WTP threshold of this study， the NALIRIFOX regimen was not economically efficient compared with the AG regimen. The scenario analysis results indicated that when the price was reduced by 70%， the probability of the NALIRIFOX regimen being economically efficient compared with the AG regimen was 9.60%. CONCLUSIONS From the perspective of China’s health system， when the WTP threshold is set at three times China’s 2024 per capita GDP， the NALIRIFOX regimen is not economically efficient in the first-line treatment of metastatic pancreatic cancer， compared with the AG regimen.

BACKGROUND: Several studies have demonstrated the occurrence of secondary tumors as a rare but significant complication of chimeric antigen receptor T (CAR-T) cell therapy, underscoring the need for a detailed investigation. Given the limited variety of secondary tumor types reported to date, a comprehensive characterization of the various secondary tumors arising after CAR-T therapy is essential to understand the associated risks and to define the role of the immune microenvironment in malignant transformation. This study aims to characterize the immune microenvironment of a newly identified secondary tumor post-CAR-T therapy, to clarify its pathogenesis and potential therapeutic targets. METHODS: In this study, the bone marrow (BM) samples were collected by aspiration from the primary and secondary tumors before and after CD19 CAR-T treatment. The CD45 + BM cells were enriched with human CD45 microbeads. The CD45 + cells were then sent for 10× genomics single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) to identify cell populations. The Cell Ranger pipeline and CellChat were used for detailed analysis. RESULTS: In this study, a rare type of secondary chronic myelomonocytic leukemia (CMML) were reported in a patient with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) who had previously received CD19 CAR-T therapy. The scRNA-seq analysis revealed increased inflammatory cytokines, chemokines, and an immunosuppressive state of monocytes/macrophages, which may impair cytotoxic activity in both T and natural killer (NK) cells in secondary CMML before treatment. In contrast, their cytotoxicity was restored in secondary CMML after treatment. CONCLUSIONS This finding delineates a previously unrecognized type of secondary tumor, CMML, after CAR-T therapy and provide a framework for defining the immune microenvironment of secondary tumor occurrence after CAR-T therapy. In addition, the results provide a rationale for targeting macrophages to improve treatment strategies for CMML treatment.

Body weight abnormalities, including overweight, obesity, and underweight, have become a dual public health challenge in Chinese adults: overweight and obesity lead to a variety of chronic complications, while underweight increases the risks of malnutrition, sarcopenia, and organ dysfunction. To systematically address these issues, multidisciplinary experts in endocrinology, sports science, nutrition, and psychiatry from various regions have held multiple weight management seminars. Based on the latest epidemiological data and clinical evidence, they expanded the guideline to include assessment and intervention strategies for underweight, in addition to the core content of obesity management. This guideline outlines the etiological mechanisms, evaluation methods, and multidimensional management strategies for overweight and obesity, covering key areas such as diagnosis and assessment, medical nutrition therapy, exercise prescription, pharmacological intervention, and psychological support. It is intended to provide a scientific and standardized approach to weight management across the adult population, aiming to curb the rising prevalence of obesity, mitigate complications associated with abnormal body weight, and improve nutritional status and overall quality of life.

Objective To explore the predictive model and its value of irAEs based on peripheral blood markers.Methods The baseline clinical data,laboratory tests,and irAEs follow-up results of 825 malignant tumor patients treated with PD-1/PD-L1 antibodies in the First Affiliated Hospital of Kunming Medical University were retrospectively collected from December 2020 to December 2023.The patients were divided into irAEs group and non-irAEs group according to the presence or absence of irAEs.The differences between and within groups were analyzed by t-test,rank-sum test,chi-square test and Fisher exact probability method.LASSO,Ridge and Elastic-net logistic regressions were used to screen the predictors and establish the risk prediction models for irAEs.Results 136 patients experienced 178 irAEs,of which endocrine toxicity accounted for 42.64％,hepatitis 35.29％,pneumonia 20.58％,grade≥G3 accounted for 19.07％,involving more than two organs accounted for 24.26％of the total number of irAEs.Univariate analysis showed that baseline CD4+T cell count,IL-6,IL-17,TSH,GLB and ALB were associated with irAEs.GLB,ALB,IL-17 and TSH were selected as the important risk factors by Ridge,LASSO and Elastic-Net logistic regression.The results showed that the AUC of the three algorithms were over 0.800.The AUC of internal validation set by LASSO-Logistic was 0.800(95％CI 0.739～0.862).The AUC of external validation set was 0.800(95％CI 0.739～0.861)and the DCA curve results indicated the highest net return for this predictive model.Conclusion GLB,ALB,IL-17 and TSH are independent predictors of irAEs,and the predictive model of irAEs based on them is effective.
