OBJECTIVE To systematically evaluate the effects of oral non-peptidic thrombopoietin receptor agonists （TPO-RAs） on hepatic enzyme in adult patients with immune thrombocytopenia. METHODS A comprehensive literature search was conducted in PubMed， Web of Science， CNKI， Wanfang database and the Chinese Medical Association Journal Full-Text Database to collect randomized controlled trials （RCTs） comparing oral non-peptidic TPO-RAs （intervention group） with placebo or conventional therapy （control group）. All databases were searched from their inception to June 2025. After literature screening， data extraction and quality assessment of the included studies， meta-analysis was conducted using RevMan 5.4.1 software. RESULTS Twelve RCTs comprising 1 388 patients were included， with 971 in the intervention group and 417 in the control group. Meta-analysis results showed that there were no significant differences between the two groups in terms of the incidence of hepatic enzyme elevation[OR＝1.24， 95%CI （0.77， 1.99）， P ＝0.37 ] ， the incidence of hepatic enzyme elevation in patients treated for ≥6 weeks[OR＝1.21， 95%CI （0.73， 1.99）， P ＝0.46 ] ， and the incidence of severe hepatic enzyme elevation[OR＝1.39， 95%CI（0.46， 4.20）， P ＝0.55 ] . Subgroup analysis showed that there were no significant differences in the incidence of hepatic enzyme elevation between the intervention group and control group among patients using eltrombopag[OR＝1.57，95%CI（0.85，2.87）， P ＝0.15 ] ， avatrombopag[OR＝0.88，95%CI （0.09，8.46）， P ＝0.91 ] ， and hetrombopag[OR＝1.04，95%CI（0.30，3.65）， P ＝0.95 ] ， respectively. CONCLUSIONS Oral non-peptidic TPO-RAs do not significantly increase the risk of hepatic enzyme elevation in adult patients with immune thrombocytopenia， and show an overall favorable hepatic safety profile.

Objective To identify the main challenges in the current development of the"one hospital with multiple campuses"model in Chinese public hospitals and provide evidence for policy improvement.Methods A systematic search of literature published between 2014 and 2024 on the topic of"one hospital with multiple campuses"was conducted in the CNKI database.The severity of the problems(Pc)was comprehensively calculated through biblio-metric analysis,and the severity ranking of the problems was determined accordingly.Results Twenty-five issues were categorized into nine dimensions.Key problems included significant inter-campus disparities in medical quality hindering homogenization(Pc=1.000);outdated information systems causing data-sharing barriers(Pc=0.945);overly complex management systems increasing unified management difficulties(Pc=0.922);unclear functional posi-tioning of branch campuses and lack of integrated planning(Pc=0.772);and fragmented information systems cou-pled with workforce redundancy elevating cost-control challenges(Pc=0.772).Conclusion The development of the"one hospital with multiple campuses"model in Chinese public hospitals urgently requires unified quality control stan-dards,strengthened cross-campus quality supervision systems,integrated information platforms to eliminate data silos,optimized organizational structures,and discipline-specific layouts.These measures will establish a manage-ment system tailored to the multi-campus model,achieving a virtuous cycle of"structural optimization—pro-cess coordination—outcome homogenization".

Nonunion of osteoporotic vertebral fractures (OVF), predominantly affecting the elderly, can lead to intractable pain, vertebral collapse, progressive kyphotic deformity, and neurological impairment, significantly compromising patients′ quality of life. There exists considerable debate on diagnosis and management of OVF, encompassing key issues such as clinical diagnosis and staging criteria for nonunion, surgical indications and procedure selection, and postoperative rehabilitation planning. Currently, there lacks standardized clinical guideline and expert consensus on the diagnosis and management of OVF nonunion in China. To address this gap, Minimally Invasive Surgery Group of Chinese Orthopedic Association, Osteoporosis Committee of Chinese Association of Orthopedic Surgeons, Prevention and Rehabilitation Committee for Osteoporosis of Chinese Association of Rehabilitation Medicine and Minimally Invasive Orthopedic Surgery Branch of China Association for Geriatric Care jointly organized domestic experts in spinal surgery, endocrinology, and rehabilitation to formulate the Clinical guideline for the diagnosis and treatment for nonunion of osteoporotic vertebral fractures ( version 2025), based on existing literature and clinical experience and adhering to principles of scientific rigor and practicality. The guideline provided 13 evidence-based recommendations encompassing diagnosis and treatment of OVF nonunion, aiming to standardize its clinical management.

Objective To investigate the relationship between the five-circuit and six-qi characteristics of birth dates and the prevalence of endometriosis(EMs).Methods Clinical data from 333 EMs patients treated at the Department of Reproductive Medicine,The First Affiliated Hospital of Henan University of Chinese Medicine between March 2022 and March 2025 were collected.Statistical analysis was performed on parameters of the five circuits and six qi of patients' birth dates.Results No statistically significant differences were found in the distribution of heavenly stems,dominant circuits,guest circuits,dominant qi,guest qi,joining of guest qi with dominant qi,or Sitian-Zaiquan among the 333 EMs patients(all P＞0.05).However,significant differences were observed in the distribution of earthly branches,yearly circuits,and circuit-qi combinations(P＜0.05 or P＜0.01).Specifically:(1)The most frequent earthly branch was the"Wei"year(12.3％,41/333);(2)The most common annual circuit was"deficient water circuit"(14.7％,49/333);(3)The predominant circuit-qi combination was"Tong Sui Hui"(23.1％,77/333).Conclusion The development of EMs is associated with specific five circuits and six qi characteristics at birth:(1)Earthly branch of"Wei"year;(2)Annual circuit of"deficient water circuit";(3)Circuit-qi combination of"Tong Sui Hui".These patterns suggest that congenital endowmentl deficiencies in the spleen and kidney systems may predispose individuals to EMs.

Peripheral artery disease(PAD),commonly encountered in vascular surgery,predominantly affects the lower limbs and presents with ischemic symptoms resulting from atherosclerosis.It carries risks of adverse limb events and cardiovascular events.Antithrombotic therapy remains a cornerstone in the management of PAD.This article reviews the evidence and research progress regarding dual-pathway antithrombotic therapy for PAD.Multiple clinical trials have demonstrated that,compared to single antiplatelet therapy,dual-pathway antithrombotic therapy significantly reduces the risks of major adverse limb events and major adverse cardiovascular events without a significant increase in bleeding risk.For high-risk patients,such as those with advanced age,multivessel disease,comorbid coronary artery disease,or those undergoing endovascular revascularization,the benefits of dual-pathway antithrombotic therapy are particularly pronounced.Current clinical guidelines have incorporated dual-pathway antithrombotic therapy into their recommendations,standardized criteria for identifying the most appropriate patient populations remain lacking.Despite its advantages in reducing adverse events,its long-term safety profile and optimal target populations warrant further investigation.

Objective To investigate the clinical manifestations of traditional Chinese medicine(TCM)and their associations with TCM constitutions in individuals who have migrated to plateau areas,and to provide a scientific basis for plateau health management.Methods Migrants living in areas above 3000 m were selected as research subjects.Data were collected by using TCM symptom assessment scales and constitution assessment scales.Descriptive statistical analysis was conducted to determine the incidence and severity of symptoms among individuals with different migration durations,and core symptoms were identified.Factor analysis was performed by using SPSS software to extract symptom clusters and explore the correlation between core symptoms and TCM constitutions.Results Among individuals who migrated to plateau areas,the incidence of discomfort symptoms was 83.44％.The five most common symptoms were dry skin(67.94％),forgetfulness(56.03％),dry mouth(52.06％),yellow urine(48.73％),and insomnia(47.14％).In the top 10 symptoms with the highest increase in incidence,yellow urine(33.51％)and forgetfulness(26.33％)were both present in the top 10 symptoms across different migration durations.Factor analysis extracted 5,2,4,and 6 symptom clusters from the overall population,individuals who migrated within 1 year,those who migrated for 1-2 years,and those who migrated over 2 years,respectively.Qi-deficiency constitution(QDC),blood stasis constitution(BSC),qi stagnation constitution(QSC),phlegm-dampness constitution(PDC),and dampness-heat constitution(DHC)were significantly positively correlated with forgetfulness.Conclusion Migrating to plateau areas can induce discomfort symptoms,and both the number and incidence of symptoms increase with longer migration durations.The number and incidence of high-frequency symptoms(incidence≥30％)increase with prolonged migration time.There are differences in the composition and severity of symptom clusters across different migration durations.QDC,BSC,QSC,PDC,and DHC are closely related to forgetfulness and can be considered risk constitutions for forgetfulness.Timely attention to changes in symptom clusters and constitutions can help prevent and mitigate the occurrence and development of symptoms.

Objective To understand the current status of stigma among lung cancer patients in Yunnan and analyze its influencing factors.Methods A convenience sampling method was employed to select 248 lung cancer patients from a tertiary cancer hospital in Yunnan from July 2022 to July 2023.A demographic questionnaire and the Chinese version of the Lung Cancer Patient Stigma Scale were used to investigate their demographic characteristics and stigma levels.Results The total score of stigma in lung cancer patients was(96.92±14.87).Multiple linear regression analysis showed that education level,long-term residence,ethnicity and family relationship were the influencing factors of stigma score in lung cancer patients(P<0.05).Conclusion The stigma level among lung cancer patients is relatively high.Patients with higher education levels,those living in rural areas for a long time,ethnic minorities,and those with better family relationships exhibited higher stigma levels.Enhancing the accessibility of medical resources,establishing a comprehensive social support system,and paying attention to and respecting the cultural differences and beliefs of lung cancer patients can provide them with greater understanding,support,and encouragement,thereby reducing the stigma levels.

Objective:To investigate the clinicopathological and molecular genetic characteristics of pediatric tumors with DICER1 mutations.Methods:A total of 90 patients diagnosed with various types of pediatric tumors at Beijing Children′s Hospital, Capital Medical University, Beijing, China from July 2023 to September 2025 were included in this study. PCR amplification and Sanger sequencing were performed to detect the coding-region mutations of the DICER1 gene. The clinical, histopathological, and molecular genetic features of the cases with DICER1 mutation were then analyzed.Results:Among the 90 patients, 39 were male and 51 were female, with an age of onset ranging from 1 month to 17 years [median 7.13 (2.77, 10.37) years]. DICER1 mutations were detected in 37 patients (37/90, 41.1%). Among them, 9 cases harbored one mutation [6 pleuropulmonary blastomas (PPBs), 2 sex cord stromal tumors (SCSTs), and 1 cystic nephroma (CN)], 27 cases carried two mutations [10 PPBs, 3 anaplastic sarcomas of the kidney (ASKs), 3 SCSTs, 3 thyroid adenoma, 2 nodular thyroid goiters, 2 thyroid follicular lesions, 2 CN, 1 embryonal rhabdomyosarcoma, and 1 case with multiple primary tumors], and 1 case exhibited three mutations (bilateral ASKs). Despite variations in the site of origin, DICER1-mutant tumors shared several morphological features. Grossly, they presented as multilocular cystic, cystic-solid to solid masses. Microscopically, they exhibited a subepithelial layer of mesenchymal cells, with focal rhabdomyoblastic/chondroid/chondrosarcomatous differentiation, as well as cellular anaplasia. Germline testing using peripheral blood in the 31 patients with DICER1 mutation confirmed germline origin in 61.3% (19/31) of them. Parental analysis ( n=12) demonstrated genetic inheritance in 8 cases, predominantly from families with tumor history. Germline variants scattered throughout DICER1 and consisted of loss-of-function mutations (nonsense, frameshift, and splice-site). Somatic mutations showed distinct clustering in exons 24 and 25 hotspots (codons 1705, 1709, 1809, 1810 and 1813), primarily missense variants. Notably, one multiple primary tumor case harbored a somatic mosaic p.E1705K mutation. Conclusions:DICER1 mutations are frequently detected in pediatric PPB, CN, SCST, ASK, nodular thyroid goiter, thyroid adenoma, and genitourinary rhabdomyosarcoma, which often represent as the index case of DICER1 syndrome. Performing DICER1 mutation testing in these patients not only facilitates tumor diagnosis and secondary cancer surveillance, but also enables the comprehensive genetic risk assessment and management for patient′s family members.

Objective To explore the value of deep learning image reconstruction(DLIR)algorithm to improve the quality of low keV monochromatic portal vein images of energy spectrum CT.Methods Fifty patients who underwent enhanced upper abdominal energy spectrum CT scan were selected.Mixed-model adaptive statistical iterative reconstruction-Veo(50%ASIR-V)algorithm and high-deep learning image reconstruction(DLIR-H)algorithm were used to obtain monochromatic images at 40-70 keV(with intervals of 10 keV).The CT and standard deviation(SD)values of the portal vein trunk,left and right branches,and erector spinae muscle were measured in the transverse position,and the signal-to-noise ratio(SNR)and portal vein contrast-to-noise ratio(CNR)were calculated for objective evaluation.The portal vein image quality between the two algorithms and different energy was subjectively scored by two physicians.Results In terms of objective evaluation:compared with 50%ASIR-V,the CNR and SNR of portal vein in monochromatic DLIR-H images at the same keV between 40-70 keV energy levels were increased while the SD value was decreased(P＜0.05),and the CT value was unchanged;there was no statistical difference in the magnitude of change in CNR between the two algorithms at different energy levels(P＞0.05);there was a statistically significant difference in the magnitude of change in SNR and SD value(P＜0.05)and the magnitude of change was the largest at 40 keV;comparison between different energy levels of DLIR-H,the CNR and SD value of 40 keV DLIR-H were the highest(P＜0.05),and there was no significant difference in the SNR(P＞0.05).In terms of subjective evaluation:there was no significant difference between the subjective scores of the two algorithms at the same keV from 40-70 keV(P＞0.05),and the two reconstruction algorithms at 40 keV and 50 keV had the highest subjective scores between different keV.Conclusion The DLIR algorithm can reduce the noise of low keV monochromatic images,improve the image quality of portal vein.

Objective To investigate whether O6-methylguanine-DNA methyltransferase(MGMT)interference combined with temozolomide(TMZ)could enhance the therapeutic effect of temozolomide on human drug-resistant melanoma cells A375/TMZ.Methods A375/TMZ cells were randomly divided into 4 groups,control group(normal culture),MGMTsiRNA group(200 nmol·L-1 MGMTsiRNA),experimental group(1 600 μmol·L-1 TMZ)and combined group(transfection of MGMTsiRNA followed by addition of 1 600 μmol·L-1 TMZ).After 24 h of culture,the proliferation of cells in each group was analyzed by cell counting kit-8 method.Western blotting was used to detect the expression levels of poly ADP-ribose polymerase(PARP),cleaved PARP(cleaved-PARP),DNA-dependent protein kinase catalytic subunit(DNA-PKcs)and nuclear factor kappa-B(NF-κB)proteins in the cells.The expression and distribution of NF-κB proteins in the cells were detected by immunofluorescence.Results Cell inhibition rates of control,MGMTsiRNA,experimental and combined groups were 0,(3.45±1.53)％,(51.24±2.73)％and(70.69±4.48)％;the relative expression levels of PARP protein were 0.45±0.08,0.47±0.06,0.33±0.04,0.14±0.03;the relative expression levels of the cleaved-PARP protein were 0.01±0.02、0.01±0.01、0.18±0.03 and 0.36±0.04;the relative expression levels of DNA-PKcs protein were 0.09±0.03,0.07±0.02,0.32±0.02 and 0.39±0.04;the relative expression levels of NF-κB protein were 0.35±0.04,0.36±0.05,0.20±0.02 and 0.15±0.02.Compared with experimental group or control group,the differences of above indexes were all statistically significant(all P＜0.05).Immunofluorescence analysis showed that the average fluorescence intensity of NF-κB in control group,MGMTsiRNA group,experimental group and combined group were(5.26±1.05)％,(7.58±1.18)％,(10.56±1.99)％and(15.47±2.61)％;and compared with the cells in control group and MGMTsiRNA group,combined group showed NF-κB was significantly increased in the nucleus of tumor cells,and the difference was statistically significant(all P＜0.01).Conclusion MGMTsiRNA combined with TMZ further promotes proliferation inhibition and apoptosis of drug-resistant melanoma A375/TMZ cells by TMZ.
