[摘 要] 目的：探讨复发/转移性鼻咽癌（NPC）接受含PD-1单抗免疫治疗的临床特征和预后影响因素。方法：回顾性分析2019年3月至2024年7月期间南部战区总医院确诊的95例NPC患者的临床资料和外周血生化及免疫学指标。预后分析采用Kaplan-Meier曲线，组间比较使用Log-rank检验，采用Cox比例风险模型进行单因素和多因素分析。结果：95例患者中男性81例，女性14例，中位年龄49.72岁（16~74岁），Ⅳ期91例（95.79%），所有患者均采用免疫治疗，联合或不联合化疗方案治疗，中位无进展生存期（mPFS）为10.5个月，客观缓解率（ORR）70.53%，疾病控制率（DCR）89.47%，接受含铂治疗方案患者PFS相对更长，且差异有统计学意义。紫杉醇 + 顺铂 + 氟尿嘧啶（TPF）对比吉西他滨 + 顺铂（GP）和紫杉醇 + 顺铂（TP）显示出更长的PFS，但差异无统计学意义。不同PD-1单抗治疗组间的PFS未显示出有统计学意义的差异。单因素及多因素Cox回归分析结果显示，肿瘤复发状态、初始血浆EBV感染状态、治疗周期数、基线外周血SII是复发/转移性NPC患者接受PD-1抑制剂治疗疗效预测的独立相关因素（均P < 0.05），并且非复发患者、初始血浆EBV DNA阳性、接受 ≥ 4治疗周期、基线外周血SII < 772.81的患者接受PD-1抑制剂治疗预后相对更好。结论：在接受PD-1抑制剂治疗的复发/转移性NPC患者中，非复发患者、初始血浆EBV DNA阳性、≥ 4治疗周期且外周血SII < 772.81者PFS相对更长，可早期识别免疫治疗效果不佳患者并精准干预。

Background As one of the most severe occupational diseases in China, pneumoconiosis is significantly burdened by its complications, which adversely affects patients' quality of life. Objective To identify the influencing factors of complications in pneumoconiosis and to construct an early prediction model for pneumoconiosis complications, providing theoretical guidance for clinical diagnosis, treatment, and rehabilitation. Methods A case-control study was conducted using data from the Chongqing 5G Pneumoconiosis Rehabilitation Management Information Platform. A total of 1872 pneumoconiosis patients with complications, who received rehabilitation at various rehabilitation stations in Chongqing from January 2021 to December 2024, were enrolled as the case group. Concurrently, 2348 patients without complications from the same platform and period were included as the control group. Univariate analysis, LASSO regression, and logistic regression were employed to identify influencing factors for complications. An extreme gradient boosting (XGBoost) model was trained using ten-fold cross-validation to predict pneumoconiosis complications. The SHapley Additive exPlanations (SHAP) method was applied for model visualization. Results The analysis of influencing factors revealed that increased age, silicosis type, advanced stage of pneumoconiosis, dependence in activities of daily living, abnormal muscle strength, increased dyspnea index, presence of cough, viscous sputum, impaired cardiac function, severe abnormality in the 6-minute walk test (6MWT), and increased Borg score were risk factors for complications (P<0.05). The XGBoost model demonstrated an area under the curve (AUC) of receiver operating characteristic of 0.718, and a Brier score of 0.211 for the calibration curve. Decision curve analysis demonstrated a superior net benefit within the threshold probability range of 0.2 to 1.0 compared to "all-patient intervention" and "no-patient intervention" strategies, indicating good predictive performance and significant clinical utility. SHAP visualization identified the top six important features as Borg score, age, 6MWT, muscle strength, pneumoconiosis stage, and cough symptoms. Conclusion Multiple factors influence the occurrence of complications in pneumoconiosis patients. Clinical attention should be focused on elderly patients with decreased cardiopulmonary reserve, pronounced respiratory symptoms, and diminished muscle strength. The XGBoost model demonstrates satisfactory discrimination, calibration, and clinical applicability in predicting pneumoconiosis complications and may serve as a useful reference for clinical decision-making.

ObjectiveTo establish an adjusted Serfling regression model to estimate the excess cases and the excess epidemic period of hand-foot-mouth disease (HFMD) in Beijing from 2011 to 2019, so as to provide data support and decision-making basis for HFMD prevention and control. MethodsThe weekly number of HFMD cases in Beijing from 2011 to 2019 was utilized for adjusted the Serfling regression model. Then the adjusted model was used to fit the baseline and epidemic threshold of HFMD in Beijing from 2011 to 2019, calculating the excess cases and determining the excess epidemic period. ResultsA total of 279 306 cases of HFMD were reported in Beijing from 2011 to 2019, with the climax of the disease occurring in summer and autumn. After adjusting the fitting R² of the Serfling regression model to 0.773, a total of 10 excess epidemic periods totaling 92 weeks were estimated, mainly occurring in summer. The highest number of excess cases during an excess epidemic period was found in 2014 (1 272 cases, 95%CI: 990‒1 554), accounting for 65.04% of the actual cases (95%CI: 50.62%‒79.46%). ConclusionThe adjusted Serfling regression model fits well and can be utilized for early warning of HFMD and estimating the disease burden caused by HFMD.

Migraine is a debilitating neurological disorder commonly observed in clinical practice，and its pathogenesis is closely associated with abnormal activation and sensitization of the trigeminovascular system.Recent studies have shown that neuroimmune interactions play a pivotal role in the pathophysiological process of migraine.This article systematically reviews the multidimensional clinical evidence for the link between immune system dysregulation and the development of migraine， covering the aspects of genetic susceptibility， inflammatory factors in peripheral circulation，and neuroimaging features of the central nervous system. Furthermore， this article discusses the latest research advances based on rodent animal models， which reveals the dynamic recruitment of diverse immunocompetent cells，including innate immune cells， adaptive immune cells， and neuroglial cells， across the hierarchical structures of the trigeminovascular pathway. These immune effector cells bidirectionally modulate neuronal excitability through the complex network of pro-inflammatory and anti-inflammatory mediators， thereby participating in the formation of peripheral and central sensitization. This article especially focuses on the potential application value of these fundamental research findings in clinical translation.

The American College of Physicians（ACP） has developed a clinical practice guideline for the management of episodic migraine （defined as headache occurring on 1 to 14 days per month） in adults in outpatient settings. Based on a systematic literature review， this guideline reviews the benefits and harms of pharmacologic treatments， patient values and preferences， and health economic evidence， the Grading of Recommendations Assessment， Development and Evaluation approach was used to perform evidence-based evaluation of interventions. The guideline systematically evaluates the efficacy and safety of the following drug classes of angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor （lisinopril）， angiotensin II receptor antagonists （candesartan/telmisartan）， antiseizure medications （sodium valproate/topiramate）， β-blockers （metoprolol/propranolol）， calcitonin gene-related peptide pathway modulators （including the gepants such as atogepant/rimegepant and the monoclonal antibodies such as eptinezumab/erenumab/fremanezumab/galcanezumab）， serotonergic agents （fluoxetine/venlafaxine）， and tricyclic antidepressant （amitriptyline）. The key outcomes evaluated include migraine frequency， migraine duration， number of acute medication intake days， frequency of migraine-related emergency department visits， migraine-related disability， quality of life， and discontinuations due to adverse events， and FDA labels and research data from eligible studies were used to assess drug safety. The guideline puts forward three core recommendations with conditional strength （based on low-certainty evidence）： clinicians should initiate monotherapy to prevent episodic migraine in nonpregnant adults in outpatient settings； clinicians should consider alternative treatments in patients who do not tolerate or have inadequate response to initial therapy. In addition， the guideline provides clinical considerations to support evidence-based decision-making among internists and other clinicians.

ObjectiveTo investigate the anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects of baicalin for treating chronic obstructive pulmonary disease （COPD） in rats and decipher the molecular mechanisms via the nuclear factor-kappa B （NF-κB）/nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 （Nrf2） signaling pathway. MethodsSixty SPF-grade male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly assigned into six groups： normal control， COPD model， low-dose baicalin， medium-dose baicalin， high-dose baicalin， and budesonide. The normal control group received no treatment， whereas COPD was modeled in other groups with a combined modeling approach involving intratracheal lipopolysaccharide instillation and passive cigarette smoke exposure. The model establishment was evaluated through behavioral observation combined with pathological examination. Hematoxylin-eosin （HE） staining was performed to assess histopathological changes in the lung. Serum levels of inflammatory cytokines ［interleukin （IL）-6， IL-8， IL-17， IL-22， tumor necrosis factor （TNF）-α， and transforming growth factor （TGF）-β）］， reactive oxygen species （ROS）， and vascular endothelial growth factor （VEGF） were quantified by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay （ELISA）. Meanwhile， the levels of IL-6， IL-17， and IL-22 in the bronchoalveolar lavage fluid （BALF） and IL-10， IL-22， and TNF-α in the lung tissue were measured via ELISA. Immunohistochemistry （IHC） was employed to detect the expression of histone deacetylase 2 （HDAC2） and Nrf2. Western blot was performed to evaluate the expression of phosphoinositide 3-kinase （PI3K）， protein kinase B （Akt）， glucocorticoid receptor （GR）， NF-κB， HDAC2， and Nrf2 in the lung tissue. Additionally， real-time PCR was conducted to assess the mRNA levels of PI3K， Akt， HDAC2， Nrf2， GR， and NF-κB in the lung tissue. ResultsHE staining revealed that the airway mucosal epithelium in the COPD model group appeared extensive shedding， structural disorganization， and diffuse infiltration of inflammatory cells within the lumen. And goblet cells showed compensatory proliferation with pathological hypertrophy of mucus glands. In contrast， inflammatory infiltration and alveolar overdistension were significantly alleviated in the medium- and high-dose baicalin groups. The COPD model group exhibited mucus plug formation within the terminal bronchioles， along with fibrotic narrowing of the bronchial wall. Moreover， the smooth muscle bundles of the bronchial wall were hypertrophic， with concomitant collagen deposition. Progressive dissolution and rupture of alveolar septa were observed， leading to the formation of abnormally enlarged air-filled cavities. However， the bronchial wall structure was largely restored with only mild thickening of the smooth muscle layer in the baicalin groups. Compared with the COPD model group， the medium- and high-dose baicalin groups showed declined ROS and VEGF levels （P<0.05）， and all the baicalin groups presented lowered levels of IL-6， IL-8， IL-17， IL-22， TGF-β， and TNF-α and elevated level of IL-10 （P<0.05）. Baicalin upregulated the protein levels of HDAC2， Nrf2， GR， PI3K， and Akt， while suppressing the protein level of NF-κB （P<0.05）. Furthermore， baicalin increased the mRNA levels of Nrf2 and GR while down-regulating the mRNA level of NF-κB （P<0.05）. ConclusionBaicalin exerts anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects by inhibiting the pro-inflammatory factor NF-κB while enhancing the expression of the anti-inflammatory factor HDAC2 and activating the antioxidant factor Nrf2， thereby alleviating the lung tissue damage in COPD rats. The therapeutic effects of baicalin may be closely associated with its regulatory role in the NF-κB/Nrf2 signaling pathway.

Objective To explore the effect of stress hyperglycemia (SHG) on new-onset atrial fibrillation (NOAF) in patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI). Methods A total of 1 321 patients with non-diabetic AMI who were admitted to the hospital from February 2024 to February 2025 were retrospectively selected. The occurrence of SHG was assessed according to the blood glucose level at admission. All patients received standard treatment after admission. The occurrence of NOAF during hospitalization was recorded. According to the presence or absence of NOAF occurrence, the patients were classified into NOAF group (n=118) and no-NOAF group (n=1,203). The clinical data of the two groups were collected and compared. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was applied to analyze the factors influencing the occurrence of NOAF in AMI patients. Results Among the 1 321 patients, 369 cases (27.93%) had SHG according to their blood glucose test at admission. After the completion of hospitalization, 118 of the 1321 patients developed NOAF, with an incidence rate of 8.93%. Multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that SHG (OR=2.776, 95%CI: 1.384-5.567), smoking history (OR=2.680, 95%CI: 1.457-4.931), Killip grading at admission (OR=2.779, 95%CI: 1.361-5.671), Gensini score (OR=1.119, 95%CI: 1.038-1.205), time from onset to revascularization (OR=1.114, 95%CI: 0.973-1.275), and NT-proBNP (OR=1.123, 95%CI: 1.049-1.203) were independent influencing factors of NOAF in patients with AMI (P<0.05). Conclusion SHG, smoking history, Killip grading at admission, Gensini score, NT-proBNP, and time from onset to revascularization may influence the occurrence of NOAF in AMI patients during hospitalization, which should be given high attention.
