Objective To analyze the factors affecting the prognosis of patients with locally advanced or metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) undergoing immunotherapy and construct an individualized prognostic nomogram prediction model. Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of 385 patients with driver gene-negative, locally advanced or metastatic NSCLC who received first-line immune checkpoint inhibitors. Univariate and multivariate Cox regression analyses were used to identify prognostic risk factors, and a prognostic nomogram model was established. The predictive performance of the model was evaluated using the concordance index (C-index), time-dependent receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves and area under the curve (AUC), and calibration curves. The cutoff value of the nomogram was calculated to stratify patients by risk. Survival curves were calculated by Kaplan-Meier analysis. Results Age (HR=1.775, 95%CI: 1.265-2.490), degree of differentiation (HR=0.365, 95%CI: 0.257-0.519), low PD-L1 expression (HR=0.661, 95%CI: 0.455-0.960), high PD-L1 expression (HR=0.423, 95%CI: 0.297-0.603), SCC-Ag (HR=1.549, 95%CI: 1.109-2.163), and CONUT score (HR=2.527, 95%CI: 1.797-3.554) were independent risk factors affecting overall survival (OS) of patients with NSCLC undergoing immunotherapy. The nomogram prediction model constructed on the basis of these factors had a C-index of 0.767. Time-dependent ROC curves for survival showed that the AUCs for 1-, 2-, and 3-year OS were 0.830, 0.853, and 0.886, respectively. Calibration curves indicated that the nomogram-predicted survival rates were in good agreement with the actual outcomes. The cutoff value for the study’s nomogram prediction model was 136.60 points, and survival curves showed statistically significant differences between different risk groups (P<0.05). Conclusion The nomogram model established in this study can effectively predict the prognosis of patients with driver gene-negative locally advanced or metastatic NSCLC treated with first-line immunosuppressive therapy. It provides a new tool for assessing prognosis and aids clinicians in formulating individualized treatment plans.

Epidermal growth factor receptor(EGFR)gene exon 20 insertion(ex20ins)mutation is a common driver gene activation mutation in non-small cell lung cancer(NSCLC).Tumors harboring this gene mutation are characterized by high heterogeneity,high malignancy,low detectability,poor response to conventional therapies,and poor prognosis.In recent years,significant progress has been made in the study of EGFR ex20ins mutation.The wide application of next-generation sequencing has improved the detection rate.The U.S.Food and Drug Administration(FDA)has approved the relevant indications of amivantamab in NSCLC patients with EGFR ex20ins mutation.A variety of new drugs have also achieved good results in previous studies.This article will summarize the structural characteristics,detection methods and clinical treatment progress of NSCLC patients with EGFR ex20ins mutations,hoping to provide help for the choice of clinical treatment for such patients.

Objective:To analyze the current status, identify existing issues, and explore countermeasures for the development of " Six-Good" retirement Party branches in medical institutions and scientific research institutes.Methods:In August 2024, ten medical and research institutions were selected. Focusing on the current status and existing issues in Party branch building for retired personnel, questionnaire surveys were conducted among staff members of the Party office and the retired cadres department, as well as retired Party members. Experts in the field of Party building were selected for semi-structured interviews. Core themes were then extracted through content analysis.Results:The questionnaire survey included a total of 399 survey respondents, comprising 112 staff members from the Party office and the retired cadres department, as well as 287 retired Party members. 212 (53.1%) of the respondents belonged to Party branches with over 50 members, 280 (70.2%) of the respondents expressed a preference for establishing Party branches based on similar business functions or former departments prior to retirement. 373 (93.5%) of the respondents believed Party branch committee members were adequately appointed. 33.7% (127/377) of the respondents perceived ideological fluctuations among retirement Party members. 175 (43.9%) of the respondents indicated that learning content was insufficiently diverse. Through interviews with 15 experts, it was found that the construction of retired party branches was faced with issues such as low participation in offline organizational life, insufficient effectiveness in the education and management of party members, limited role play of party members, and prominent service and support pressures. In response, the experts proposed specific suggestions such as innovating organizational forms, strengthening the effectiveness of education and management, and building platforms for role play.Conclusions:The " Six-Good" Party branch building for retired personnel of the medical and scientific research institutions had achieved certain results, but there were also some problems. It is necessary to further optimize organizational settings, strengthen the branch leadership, innovate learning forms, build a platform for role play, strictly implement various systems, and strengthen assistance to difficult party members.

Objective To explore the networked association among the dimensions of self-efficacy in patients with rheumatoid arthritis(RA)and to identify core efficacy and bridge efficacy,and provide a basis for formulating precise nursing intervention strategies.Methods A total of 652 RA patients admitted in our hospital from September 2024 to January 2025 were enrolled with convenience sampling.The general information questionnaire and Rheumatoid Arthritis Self-Efficacy Scale(RASE)were used for assessment.Exploratory factor analysis was used to extract efficacy symptom clusters.With aid of R project,network analysis was employed to construct an association network among efficacy dimensions to calculate centrality indicators(strength,closeness,betweenness)to identify core efficacy and bridge efficacy.Results Exploratory factor analysis extracted 7 efficacy symptom clusters,with a cumulative variance contribution rate of 64.539%(P<0.001).Network analysis showed that the network density was 0.143,suggesting that there were moderate correlations among the self-efficacy dimensions."Relaxation efficacy 1(r1)"and"pain efficacy 1(a1)"had the strongest correlation(r=0.73).Interpersonal efficacy 2(i2)had the highest intensity centrality(6.88),and relaxation efficacy 3(r3)had the highest tightness(0.0125),and medication efficacy 1(m1)had the highest mediation(116),which were the core efficacy and bridge efficacy in this network group.Conclusion There are complex network-like correlations among the various dimensions of self-efficacy in RA patients.Interpersonal efficacy is the core driving factor,while relaxation and medication efficacies play the bridging role,jointly influencing the overall level of patients'self-management ability.

BACKGROUND:Prolyl hydroxylase domain 2(PHD2)inhibitors can regulate bone metabolism and relieve osteoporosis in ovariectomized rats.cpd17 is a small molecule oral PHD2 inhibitor newly developed by China Pharmaceutical University.It is effective in the treatment of renal anemia with few side effects,but its effect on bone formation and bone resorption is still unclear. OBJECTIVE:To investigate the effects of cpd17 on mouse osteogenic precursor cells. METHODS:Osteogenic precursor cells were treated with cpd17.Alkaline phosphatase activity and extracellular matrix mineralization were measured,and the expression levels of osteogenesis-and osteoclastogenesis-related markers,as well as PHD2 and hypoxia-inducible factor 1α,were detected.After inhibition of the hypoxia-inducible factor 1α pathway using LW6(a hypoxia-inducible factor 1α pathway inhibitor),alkaline phosphatase activity and extracellular matrix mineralization were detected again,as well as the expression levels of osteogenesis-and osteoclastogenesis-related markers,PHD2 and hypoxia-inducible factor 1α. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:cpd17 significantly enhanced alkaline phosphatase activity and extracellular matrix mineralization,up-regulated the expression of osteogenesis-related markers,down-regulated the expression of osteoclastogenesis-related markers,up-regulated the expression of hypoxia-inducible factor 1α,down-regulate the expression of PHD2.However,cpd17's effects were significantly attenuated by LW6.To conclude,the PHD2 inhibitor cpd17 promotes osteogenic differentiation and inhibits osteoclastic differentiation through activation of the hypoxia-inducible factor 1α signaling pathway.
