The etiology of tumors is complex and influenced by multiple factors, including the host and environmental conditions. Allergy is primarily driven by the immune response of helper T cell 2 (Th2). Research has shown that the Th2 immune response is closely related to tumors, which is specifically manifested through Th2 antibodies, allergy-related effector cells and mediators within the tumors, as well as tumor immune-related functions. This internal interaction mechanism will increase the complexity and challenges associated with the clinical diagnosis and treatment of tumors and allergy. The formation of allergic constitution is shaped by both congenital and acquired factors, and its physical state is closely linked to the occurrence and progression of allergic diseases. Therefore, this paper aims to explore the relationship between tumors and allergic reactions from the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) constitution theory. Based on the four basic principles of the TCM constitution, including endowment inheritance theory, environment constraint theory, body-spirit composition theory, and life process theory, this exploration will focus on four aspects: genetic factors and internal disease causes, inflammatory environments and functional regulation, psychological disorders and emotional pathogenesis, as well as age structure and disease risk. Furthermore, from the perspective of constitution-disease relation of chronic disease prevention, this paper will discuss the significant importance of adjusting allergic constitution to improve both subjective symptoms and objective indicators of allergic reactions in tumor patients.

Objectives:To explore whether short-course radiotherapy (SCRT)-based total neoadjuvant therapy (TNT) combined with PD-1 inhibitors could further promote tumor regression and improve the prognosis.Methods:This is a prospective, multicenter, two-arm randomized controlled, seamless phase Ⅱ/Ⅲ trial for proficient mismatch repair or microsatellite stable (pMMR/MSS) locally advanced rectal cancer (LARC). Eligible patients were randomly assigned to the iTNT (TNT+PD-1) group or the TNT group. Patients in the TNT group received SCRT (5 Gy×5) followed by 4 cycles of CAPOX or 6 cycles of mFOLFOX chemotherapy, with the iTNT group receiving SCRT followed by the same regime in combination with 4 cycles of Sintilimab. Total mesorectal excision (TME) surgery or watch and wait (W&W) was performed after neoadjuvant therapy and then 2 cycles of same regimen as before were recommended. The primary endpoints are the complete response (CR) rate for phase Ⅱ trial and 3-year disease-free survival (DFS) for phase Ⅲ trial. A total of 588 patients will be enrolled for the phase Ⅱ/Ⅲ trial. Short-term efficacy and safety data from the initial 100 treated patients were analyzed as planned.Results:From 2022-8-31 to 2023-5-24 the initial 100 patients were enrolled from 10 hospitals in China, 76.0%(76/100) patients were male, and the median age was 61 years (21-74 years). More patients had tumors located in the lower rectum (78.0%, 78/100), staged T3-4 (97.0%, 97/100) and N1-2 (93.0%, 93/100), and about half of the tumors invaded the mesorectal fascia (52.0%, 52/100) and with extramural vascular invasion (51.0%, 51/100). Analyses were performed according to the per-protocal (PP) set. All patients in the iTNT group ( n=52) and the TNT group ( n=48) completed SCRT; The 4-cycle chemotherapy±Sintilimab completion rates were 86.5% and 100.0% in the iTNT and TNT groups, respectively. In the iTNT group, 82.7% (43/52), 11.5% (6/52), and 5.8% (3/52) of the patients received 4, 3, and 2 cycles of PD-1 inhibitor. After TNT, 68 patients underwent radical surgery and 15 patients achieved cCR and adopted W&W. The pathological complete response (pCR) rates were 48.5% (16/33) and 17.1% (6/35) in the iTNT and TNT groups, with CR rates of 50.0% (25/50) and 26.1% (12/46), respectively. The incidence of treatment-related grade 3-4 adverse events was 26.9% (14/52, iTNT group) and 18.8% (9/48, TNT group), with thrombocytopenia and leukopenia being the most common. Among patients receiving immunotherapy, grade 3 immunotherapy-related adverse events occurred in 2 (3.8%, 2/52) patients: one case was pancreatitis, another case was hepatitis combined with myositis and myocarditis. Conclusion:The preliminary results show that SCRT-based TNT combined with PD-1 inhibitors could further improve the CR rate for LARC without unexpected serious adverse events.

With the rapid development of competitive sports, the incidence of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury is on the rise. Such injuries may shorten athletes′ career and lead to other long-term adverse consequences. Although athletes generally recover well after ACL reconstruction, many still struggle to return to their pre-injury performance levels. Advances in the understanding of ACL anatomy and injury mechanisms, along with the evolution of surgical techniques and rehabilitation methods, have provided more individualized and tailored options for athletes following ACL injuries. However, there is currently no consensus in China regarding surgical and rehabilitation strategies for competitive athletes aiming to return to sports after ACL injuries. To this end, the Sports Medicine Committee of the Chinese Research Hospital Association and the Editorial Board of the Chinese Journal of Trauma jointly formulated the Expert consensus on surgical treatment and rehabilitation for competitive sports athletes returning to sports after anterior cruciate ligament injury ( version 2025), and presented 14 recommendations covering surgical indications, preoperative rehabilitation, surgical timing, surgical strategies and postoperative rehabilitation strategies, aiming to improve the surgical treatment and rehabilitation system for ACL injuries in competitive athletes and facilitate their return to high-level sports performance after injury.

Objective:To explore the prevalence and risk factors of insomnia in Chinese Air Force servicemen deployed to highland areas.Methods:A total of 718 Air Force servicemen deployed to Qinghai-Tibetan plateau were recruited at May 2024.Sleep quality was assessed with the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index.Social-demograph-ic,military service,and psychological characteristics were measured with a self-administered general question-naire.Bivariable and multivariable logistic regressions were performed to identify independent risk factors.Missing data were handled by the multiple imputation.Results:The average sleep duration was(6.9±1.2)h and the aver-age PSQI score was(5.9±4.1).Totally 53.8％of participants experienced clinically significant insomnia.The multivariable analysis revealed that age≥35(aOR=4.07,95％CI=1.11-17.76),stressful event(aOR=3.27,95％CI=2.00-5.49),dysfunctional sleep beliefs and attitudes(aOR=2.59,95％CI=1.75-3.85),and caffeine product usage(aOR=1.69,95％CI=1.17-2.43)were risk factors for insomnia,while Tibetan-indigenous ethnic(aOR=0.44,95％CI=0.20-0.91),higher perceived social support(aOR=0.96,95％CI=0.96-0.99),and positive coping style(aOR=0.96,95％CI=0.93-0.99)were protective factors.Conclusion:Air force service-men deployed to highland areas have sufficient sleep time,but reduced sleep quality.Age,exposed to stress event during deployment,dysfunctional sleep beliefs and attitudes,and caffeine product usage are risk factors for insomni-a,while Tibetan-indigenous ethnic,higher perceived social support and positive coping style act as protective fac-tors.

Alzheimer disease(AD)is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder characterized by cognitive dysfunction and declining learning and memory abilities,significantly impacting daily lives and behavioral capacities of the patients.The mitogen-activated protein kinase(MAPK)signaling pathway,primarily composed of extracellular signal-regulated kinase,p38 MAPK,and c-Jun N-terminal kinase.Mounting evidence suggests that the MAPK signaling path-way is intimately linked to the pathogenesis of AD,providing crucial insights into the disease's progression.In recent years,traditional Chinese medicine(TCM)has demonstrated promising potential in treating AD,with its advantages of personalized therapy and multi-target regulation garnering increasing research attention.This study aims to review the ex-perimental research landscape of TCM interventions targeting the MAPK signaling pathway for the prevention and treat-ment of AD over the past five years.The findings reveal that effective compounds and herbal formulas in TCM,such as isorhamnetin,nobiletin,parthenolide,Glehnia littoralis,Ishige okamurae,shikonin,artemisinin,kaempferol,myrice-tin,and Tripterygium glycosides,can alleviate AD symptoms by modulating the MAPK signaling pathway.These interven-tions mitigate Aβ-induced neuronal damage,reduce Tau protein hyperphosphorylation,and suppress neuroinflammatory responses.The objective of this review is to provide a scientific and theoretical reference for the clinical prevention and treatment of AD and to inform the development of novel therapeutic agents.

Objective:To investigate the incidence of shoulder work-related musculoskeletal disorders (WMSDs) among occupational population in China, and to explore their intrinsic association with personal and work-related factors.Methods:In April 2024, 73497 valid questionnaires of the Chinese version of the Musculoskeletal Disorders Electronic Questionnaire were retrospectively analyzed from June 2018 to December 2023 in 22 provinces and 29 key industries in China, and the general information, occurrence of WMSDs and related risk factors of key occupational populations in different regions in China were collected. By using Chi-square test and confirmatory factor analysis, the relationship between shoulder fatigue and pain in key occupational groups and individual factors, work type, work posture and work organization was discussed, and the internal relationship was analyzed based on structural equation model.Results:Higher incidence of shoulder fatigue and pain were associated with female, lack of physical exercise, uncomfortable working posture and neck leaning forward ( P<0.05). Structural equation model analysis showed that work type, work posture and work organization were strongly correlated ( r=0.58, 0.55). Work organization and work type were strongly correlated with shoulder fatigue ( r=0.65) and moderately correlated with shoulder fatigue ( r=0.21). Shoulder fatigue was moderately associated with shoulder pain ( r=0.40). Individual factors, work type, work posture and shoulder fatigue could directly affect shoulder pain ( OR=0.07, -0.09, 0.17 and 0.40), and work type and work posture could also indirectly affect shoulder pain through shoulder fatigue ( OR=0.08, 0.03). Work organization only indirectly affected shoulder pain through shoulder fatigue ( OR=0.26) . Conclusion:The main influencing factor of shoulder pain is shoulder fatigue, followed by work posture and individual factors. Structural equation model can better reflect the complex relationship between work type, work posture and work organization and shoulder WMSDs. Improving work posture and work organization may be an effective way to control the influence of shoulder fatigue on shoulder pain.

Objective:To investigate the current status of insomnia symptoms and executive function (EF) impairments among adolescents from regions with different economic development levels, and to analyze their relationship with depressive symptoms, so as to provide clues for improved depressive symptoms screening practices.Methods:This population-based cross-sectional study employed a multistage, stratified cluster random sampling method. During November 2017 to January 2018 and December 2018 to January 2019, a total of 2 495 adolescents aged 11 to 18 years were selected from Shanghai, representing a highly developed economic region, and 2 704 adolescents aged 11 to 18 years were selected from Shangrao city, Jiangxi province, representing a less developed economic region. The depressive symptoms were assessed using the short version of the 21-item depression, anxiety, and stress scale, based on which participants were categorized into groups with or without depressive symptoms. Insomnia symptoms and EF impairments were measured using a self-designed insomnia scale and the behavior rating inventory of executive function, respectively. Participants were further classified into 4 subgroups: neither insomnia nor EF impairment, EF impairment only, insomnia only, and comorbid insomnia and EF impairment. Chi-square test was used to compare the differences in basic information of adolescents from different regions. Multivariate Logistic regression models were applied to examine the associations between insomnia, EF impairment, and their combination with depressive symptoms as well as the differences in gender and school-stage among each subgroup.Results:A total of 2 305 adolescents were recruited from Shanghai (1 192 boys and 1 113 girls, 1 266 junior high school students and 1 039 senior high school students) and 2 250 adolescents from Shangrao (1 126 boys and 1 124 girls, 1 146 junior high school students and 1 104 senior high school students). The numbers of adolescents with depressive symptoms, insomnia symptoms and EF impairment in Shanghai were 460 adolescents (20.0%), 907 adolescents (39.3%), and 411 adolescents (17.8%), respectively, all of which were fewer than those in Shangrao, which were 616 adolescents (27.4%), 1 251 adolescents (55.6%), and 524 adolescents (23.3%), respectively (all P<0.001). In Shanghai, the numbers of adolescents with EF impairment only, insomnia only, and comorbid insomnia and EF impairment were 219 adolescents (9.5%), 670 adolescents (29.1%), and 237 adolescents (10.3%), respectively. And in Shangrao, the corresponding numbers were 193 adolescents (8.6%), 865 adolescents (38.4%), and 386 adolescents (17.2%), respectively. Compared to adolescents in Shanghai with neither EF impairment nor insomnia, the risk of depressive symptoms was all higher in adolescents with EF impairment only, insomnia only, and comorbid EF impairment-insomnia ( OR=2.86, 6.48, 20.10; 95% CI 1.57-5.22, 5.09-8.26, 13.66-29.58; all P<0.01). Similar results were observed in adolescents in Shangrao ( OR=3.22, 4.82, 10.91; 95% CI 1.66-6.28, 3.09-7.51, 7.26-16.40; all P<0.01). The analysis of gender and educational stage differences showed that, compared to the group neither EF impairment nor insomnia, the risk of depressive symptoms all higher in the groups with EF impairment only, insomnia only (all P<0.05), and comorbid EF impairment-insomnia, and the risk in comorbid EF impairment-insomnia group was the highest (all P<0.05). Conclusions:Compared with adolescents in regions with underdeveloped economies, those in economically developed regions had lower rates of insomnia, EF impairment, and depression. Both insomnia and EF impairment significantly increase the risk of depressive symptoms. Their coexistence confers the highest risk and therefore warrants particular attention for prevention and intervention efforts.

Objective:To evaluate the safety and efficacy of radiofrequency ablation（RFA）in the treatment of papillary thyroid microcarcinoma（PTMC）near and remote from the thyroid capsule.Methods:The clinical data，ultrasound images，ablation parameters and postoperative follow-up metrics were prospectively collected from 130 patients with pathologically confirmed PTMC in the Second Affiliated Hospital of Xi'an Jiaotong University who underwent RFA treatment between January 2023 and December 2024. According to whether the nodule margin was ≤ 2 mm from the thyroid capsule，the patients were divided into the subcapsular group（60 cases）and the remote from the capsule group（70 cases）. The clinical data，ablation parameters，complication rate，absorption of ablation lesions，tumor recurrence and metastasis were compared between the two groups.Results:The success rates of RFA in both groups were 100%. There was a statistically significant difference between the two groups at baseline in the location of nodules（ χ2=13.266， P=0.001）. After 12 months of routine follow-up，the incidence of complications was 5.00%（3/60）in the subcapsular group and 1.43%（1/70）in the remote from the capsule group，all complications recovered within 1 month，with no statistically significant difference（ P=0.407）. There were no significant changes in thyroid function［including free triiodothyronine（FT3），free thyroxine（FT4）and thyroid-stimulating hormone（TSH）］before and one month after RFA in the two groups（all P>0.05）. A statistically significant difference in the volume reduction rate（VRR）between the two groups was observed only when maximum diameter ≤ 5?mm at the 1st and 3rd months（all P<0.05）. For the remaining postoperative follow-up periods，there were no statistically significant differences in ablation zone volume or VRR between the two groups（all P>0.05）. At the final follow-up，for lesions with maximum diameter ≤ 5?mm，the tumor disappearance rate was 100% in both the subcapsular and remote from the capsule groups. For lesions with maximum diameter >5 mm，the rates were 78.4%（29/37）and 89.7%（26/29）in the respective groups，with no statistically significant difference between the two groups（ χ2 = 1.489， P =0.222）.There was no local tumor progression，lymph node metastasis or distant metastasis in either group. Conclusions:RFA is a safe and effective treatment for subcapsular PTMC，demonstrating comparable efficacy to that for PTMC located remote from the thyroid capsule.
