Yttrium-90 microsphere selective internal radiation therapy (SIRT), also known as transarterial radioembolization, has become one of the pivotal treatments for liver cancer, particularly for selected advantageous patient groups. This review summarizes the characteristics of different patients with liver cancer that could obtain maximum benefit from SIRT and discusses key factors affecting efficacy and safety, including tumor characteristics, liver function, patient performance status, and treatment intent. In evaluating appropriate candidates, mapping serves as a crucial simulation procedure to assess tumor vascular anatomy, predict lung shunting, and guide catheter positioning and dose planning. This procedure substantially enhances therapeutic precision while minimizing the risk of nontarget radiation-related adverse events, such as radiation-induced pneumonitis and gastrointestinal toxicity. Several studies have suggested that SIRT is not only suitable for patients with early or limited hepatocellular carcinoma but can also be used as a bridging therapy for liver transplantation and conversion therapy for unresectable liver cancers. In combination with systemic treatments, SIRT has demonstrated survival benefits in patients with unresectable liver cancer. This review also highlights the importance of further optimizing patient screening through personalized dosimetry and mapping to ensure the precision and safety of treatment. A thorough review of relevant literature and clinical practice offers clinicians comprehensive suggestions on patient screening and clarifies the promise of SIRT in the liver cancer population.

Objective:To explore the efficacy and safety of orelabrutinib combined with R-CHOP in patients with high-risk nongerminal center B-cell (non-GCB) diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) with extranodal involvement.Methods:This retrospective study was conducted on 35 patients who were seen at Guangxi Medical University Cancer Hospital and were immunohistochemically confirmed to have non-GCB DLBCL, had an International Prognostic Index score of 3 - 5, and confirmed to have ≥2 extranodal involvement on PET/CT. The treatment comprised the standard R-CHOP regimen combined with oral orelabrutinib (150 mg/day) for six cycles. In patients who developed neutropenia or grade 3 neutropenia with fever during treatment, administration of prophylactic pegylated granulocyte colony-stimulating factor 48 h after the end of chemotherapy was started on the next cycle. The endpoints included overall response rate (ORR), complete response (CR) rate, progression-free survival (PFS) time, overall survival (OS) time, and safety assessment.Results:The 35 eligible patients enrolled had a median age of 53 years (21 - 72 years) and a median follow-up time of 28 months (12 - 36 months) ; 19 patients had double-expressor (DE) status. The ORR was 88.6%, and the CR rate was 68.6%. The 2-year PFS and OS rates were 68.6% (95% CI 54.0% - 7.2%) and 87.5% (95% CI 76.7% - 100%), respectively. The 2-year PFS rate was significantly lower in patients with DE status than in those without DE status [54.4% (95% CI 35.4% - 84.2%) vs. 85.2% (95% CI 68.3% - 100%), P=0.048]. Serious adverse events included febrile neutropenia, pneumonia, and atrial flutter, but no treatment-related deaths. Conclusion:In patients with high-risk non-GCB DLBCL and extranodal involvement, the combination of orelabrutinib with R-CHOP regimen had good efficacy and manageable toxicity.

The incidence and mortality of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) in China are among the highest in the world, imposing a heavy social burden. Liver resection and liver transplantation are the primary radical treatments for HCC, although most patients are no longer able to meet the surgical requirements at initial diagnosis. Yttrium-90 microsphere selective internal radiation therapy (90Y-SIRT) has the advantages of shrinking tumors, enlarging residual liver, regressing portal vein tumor thrombus and improving the quality of life, which can be used for conversion, downstaging and bridging therapy for HCC before surgical treatment, enabling patients regain the chance of radical treatment and reducing the postoperative recurrence rate. This review focuses on the clinical application and progress of 90Y-SIRT in this field.

ObjectiveTo study the mechanism by which Shexiang Tongxin dropping pills (STDP) ameliorate the dysfunction of coronary microvascular endothelial cells in the rat model of heart failure. MethodsThe heart failure model was established by ligation of the left anterior descending coronary artery in rats, which were then allocated into sham, model, STDP, and telmisartan (TLM) groups and treated for 21 days. The heart function was detected by echocardiography, and the levels of myocardial injury markers, nitric oxide (NO), endothelin-1 (ET1), and angiotensinⅡ (AngⅡ) were determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). The protein levels of endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) and inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) were determined by Western blot. The model of cardiac microvascular endothelial cell injury was established by AngⅡ induction and then treated with the STDP-containing serum (5%, 10%, and 20%) for 24 h. The levels of NO and ET1 were measured by ELISA. Western blot was employed to determine the protein levels of eNOS, iNOS, angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2), and angiotensinⅡ receptor 2 (AT2). MLN-4760, an ACE2 inhibitor, was used to explore the mechanism underpinning the regulatory effect of STDP on the ACE2-AT2/MAS pathway. ResultsCompared with the sham group, the model group showed decreases in left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) and left ventricular fractional shortening (LVFS) (P<0.05), a decline in serum NO level, elevations in serum AngⅡ and ET1 levels, a reduction in p-eNOS/eNOS ratio, and up-regulation in iNOS expression (P<0.05). Compared with the model group, STDP increased LVEF, LVFS, and cardiac output (P<0.05), raised the level of NO and lowered the levels of AngⅡ and ET1 in the serum (P<0.05), increased the p-eNOS/eNOS value, and inhibited iNOS expression (P<0.05). Compared with the AngⅡ group, STDP increased the NO content and decreased the ET1 content in endothelial cells (P<0.05), increased the p-eNOS/eNOS ratio, and inhibited the iNOS expression (P<0.05). The ACE2 inhibitor MLN-4760 reversed the regulatory effects of STDP on p-eNOS, eNOS, and iNOS. ConclusionSTDP improves the cardiac function in the rat model of heart failure, enhances the synthesis and release of NO in cardiac microvascular endothelial cells, reduces AngⅡ and ET1 levels, and regulates the expression of p-eNOS and eNOS, thereby ameliorating the dysfunction of microvascular endothelial cells in heart failure. This mechanism is related to the upregulation of the expression of proteins in the ACE2-AT2/MAS pathway.

Objective:To investigate the efficacy and safety of lenvatinib plus drug-eluting bead transarterial chemoembolization (DEB-TACE) and FOLFOX-based hepatic arterial infusion chemotherapy (Len+DEB-TACE+HAIC) versus lenvatinib plus DEB-TACE (Len+DEB-TACE) for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) larger than 7 cm with portal vein tumor thrombosis (PVTT).Methods:The data from patients diagnosed with HCC (>7 cm) and PVTT who received either Len+DEB-TACE+HAIC ( n=99) or Len+DEB-TACE ( n=102) between July 2019 and June 2021 at six institutions in China were collected and retrospectively analyzed. Tumor responses were evaluated based on modified Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors. Objective response rate (ORR), disease control rate (DCR), time to progression (TTP), overall survival (OS), and treatment-related adverse event (TRAE) were compared between the two groups by propensity score matching. Subgroup analyses were performed for TTP and OS. Results:After propensity score matching, 83 pairs of patients were included in the study cohorts. The ORR for the Len+DEB-TACE+HAIC group and the Len+DEB-TACE group was 66.3% and 38.6% ( χ2=12.78, P<0.001), respectively. The DCR for the Len+DEB-TACE+HAIC group and the Len+DEB-TACE group was 91.6% and 79.5% ( χ2=4.87, P=0.027), respectively. The median TTP and median OS for the Len+DEB-TACE+HAIC group were significantly longer than those for the Len+DEB-TACE group (TTP, 10.1 months vs. 6.1 months, χ2=35.28, P<0.001; OS, 17.3 months vs. 12.9 months, χ2=16.84, P<0.001). The incidence of ≥grade 3 TRAEs was 38.6% in the Len+DEB-TACE+HAIC group and 33.7% in the Len+DEB-TACE group ( χ2=0.42, P=0.518). Conclusion:Compared with Len+DEB-TACE, Len+DEB-TACE+HAIC led to improved tumor response, TTP and OS with an acceptable safety profile in patients with large HCC and PVTT.

Objective:
To explore the relationship of family function with sleep and externalizing problem behaviors of preschool children, so as to provide a guidance for externalizing problem prevention and intervention among preschool children.
Methods:
From October 2023 to January 2024, a convenience sampling method was used to select 5 138 preschool children from kindergartens in 8 districts of Wuhan City, Hubei Province. Parents completed the survey for Family Adaptability and Cohesion Scale, children s sleep habits and Child Behavior Checklist (CBCL). Spearman correlation analysis was used to examine the correlation of family function with scores of sleep quality and externalizing problem behaviors among preschool children. A mediation model analysis and bootstrap test were conducted to further investigate the mediating role of sleep quality between family function and externalizing problem behaviors. Mplus 8.7 software was used for latent profile analysis of family function.
Results:
The reported rates of poor sleep quality and externalizing problem behaviors among preschool children were 11.8% ( n =607), 20.0% ( n =1 026). The relevant analysis results showed that family function was negatively correlated with sleep quality and externalizing problem behaviors ( r = -0.20, -0.23), and sleep quality was positively correlated with externalizing problem behaviors ( r =0.27) ( P <0.01). The mediation effect test showed that family function negatively predicted externalizing problem behaviors ( β =-0.079) and sleep quality ( β = -0.075), while sleep quality positively predicted externalizing problem behaviors ( β =0.215) ( P <0.01). The latent profile analysis results showed that family function could be classified into 4 categories: high family function group (23.01%), upper middle family function group (44.65%), moderate family function group (26.24%) and low family function group (6.11%). Compared to high family function, the other three categories significantly positively predicted externalizing problem behaviors, and the mediating effects of sleep quality on different categories of family function were statistically significant [upper middle family function: mediation effect value was 0.022 (95% CI =0.004-0.041) and direct effect value was 0.329 (95% CI =0.263-0.396); middle family function: mediation effect value was 0.087 (95% CI =0.063-0.115) and direct effect value was 0.491 (95% CI =0.416-0.565); low family function: mediation effect value was 0.144 (95% CI =0.107-0.185) and direct effect 0.621 (95% CI =0.503-0.740)] ( P < 0.05 ).
Conclusion
Family function negatively predicts the externalizing problem behaviors of preschool children, and sleep quality plays a partial mediating role.
