ObjectiveTo investigate the mechanisms by which Huanglian Jiedutang （HLJDT） modulates microglial （MG） phenotypes through the sialic acid-binding Ig-like lectin 2 （SIGLEC2/CD22）/Src-homology-2-domain-containing protein tyrosine phosphatase-1 （SHP-1）/phosphorylated protein kinase B （p-Akt） signaling pathway， thereby promoting myelin repair and alleviating agitation-like behaviors in vascular dementia （VAD）. MethodsSixty C57BL/6J mice were randomly assigned to a sham （normal） group， model group， HLJDT low-， medium-， and high-dose groups （2.5， 5， and 10 g·kg^-1·d^-1）， and a risperidone group （2 mg·kg^-1·d^-1）， with 10 mice per group. VAD was induced by bilateral common carotid artery stenosis （BCAS）. From day 42， mice received drug interventions for 2 weeks. Agitation-like behaviors were assessed using the resident-intruder test. After behavioral testing， ventrolateral part of the ventromedial hypothalamus （VMHvl） tissues were collected. Western blot was used to measure protein levels of myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein （MOG）， myelin basic protein （MBP）， proteolipid protein （PLP）， inducible nitric oxide synthase （iNOS）， arginase-1 （Arg1）， CD86， CD206， and CD22， SHP-1， and p-Akt. Immunofluorescence was used to evaluate myelin-associated glycoprotein （MAG） intensity and the proportion of iNOS⁺/ionized calcium-binding adapter molecule 1 （Iba1）⁺ cells. ELISA was used to detect tumor necrosis factor-α （TNF-α）， interleukin （IL）-6， and IL-1β. ResultsCompared with the normal group， the model group exhibited markedly increased biting and aggressive behaviors and shortened attack latency （P<0.01）. MOG， MBP， and PLP protein levels and MAG fluorescence intensity were significantly reduced （P<0.05， P<0.01）. INOS and CD86 expression and TNF-α， IL-6， and IL-1β levels were significantly elevated （P<0.01）. CD22 and SHP-1 expression increased significantly （P<0.01）， whereas p-Akt expression decreased （P<0.01）. Compared with the model group， the medium- and high-dose HLJDT groups and the risperidone group showed markedly reduced biting and aggression （P<0.05， P<0.01） and prolonged attack latency （P<0.01）. MOG， MBP， and PLP levels and MAG fluorescence intensity were significantly increased （P<0.05， P<0.01）. INOS， CD86， TNF-α， IL-6， and IL-1β levels decreased significantly （P<0.05， P<0.01）. CD22 and SHP-1 expression decreased， while p-Akt expression increased significantly （P<0.05， P<0.01）. ConclusionHLJDT may modulate CD22/SHP-1/p-Akt signaling in the VMHvl， promote the shift of MG toward an anti-inflammatory and phagocytic phenotype， enhance myelin repair， and improve agitation-like behaviors in VAD mice.

Objective: To investigate the status of heat illness, knowledge awareness and adaptive behaviors of heat wave knowledge among food delivery riders, so as to provide a basis for optimizing heat wave response measures for food delivery riders. Methods: In November 2022, food delivery riders from a large food delivery platform in Ningbo City, Zhejiang Province were selected as survey subjects using a cluster sampling method. A self-designed electronic questionnaire was used to select demographic information, work status, lifestyle behaviors and disease history, heat illness status, knowledge awareness and adaptive behaviors of heatwave. Results: A total of 911 questionnaires were distributed, and 830 valid questionnaires were recovered, resulting in a valid response rate of 91.11%. Among the respondents, 796 (95.90%) were male, and 818 (98.55%) worked full-time. The mean age was (27.75±8.00) years. A total of 470 respondents (56.63%) had a work tenure of less than 1 year. The primary working hours were 8-<12 hours, with 504 people accounting for 60.72%. There were 108 cases of heatstroke, with an occurrence rate of 13.01%. And 286 people reported heat-related symptoms, with an occurrence rate of 34.46%. The overall awareness rate of heat wave knowledge was 73.22%, while the awareness rate of heat warning signal classification was relatively low at 9.04%. The heat wave cognition score was (5.86±1.31) points. There were statistically significant differences in heat wave cognition scores among food delivery riders of different ages, educational levels, family annual income, work tenures, and work durations (all P<0.05). Regarding positive adaptive behaviors, the number of riders paying attention to weather forecasts and actively learning about preventive measures was higher (734 people each, accounting for 88.43%). Regarding negative adaptive behaviors, the number of riders who often drank ice-cold beverages was higher (509 people, accounting for 61.33%). The heat wave adaptive behavior score was (6.88±1.77) points. There were statistically significant differences in adaptive behavior scores among riders with different educational levels, family annual income, work tenures, and smoking frequency (all P<0.05). Conclusions The occurrence rates of heatstroke and heat-related symptoms among food delivery riders are relatively high. The knowledge awareness and adaptive behaviors regarding heat wave are at a moderate level. It is suggested to strengthen health education, reinforce risk cognition of heat wave, and promote positive adaptive behaviors among food delivery riders.

With the continuous deepening of the concept of precision diagnosis and treatment for lung cancer, how to achieve higher efficiency and accuracy in the screening, diagnosis, and treatment pathways in clinical practice has become an important issue that urgently needs to be overcome. The current clinical difficulty lies in the fact that despite continuous advancements in imaging and molecular diagnostic technologies, there are still limitations in manual efficiency and subjective experience when it comes to massive data analysis and multi-scale feature extraction. Artificial intelligence (AI), especially algorithm systems based on deep learning, is an innovative technology capable of deeply empowering medical big data. This method utilizes algorithms such as convolutional neural networks, combined with radiomics, pathomics, and multi-modal data fusion analysis, demonstrating immense potential in early precise detection and benign-malignant differentiation of pulmonary nodules, digital pathological subtype recognition and non-invasive prediction of driver genes, precise 3D surgical planning and automatic delineation of radiotherapy target volumes, as well as dynamic risk warning during follow-up. This innovative technology provides a brand-new solution for realizing intelligent and individualized lung cancer diagnosis and treatment models. This consensus, based on the latest evidence from evidence-based medicine and combined with the development trends in the AI field and real-world clinical needs, was ultimately formed by gathering the consensus opinions of multidisciplinary experts in radiology, pathology, thoracic surgery, and other fields. The main content covers the application specifications of AI in the three core scenarios of lung cancer screening, diagnosis, and treatment, the technical standards for data collection and algorithm validation, as well as the ethical and regulatory challenges faced at the current stage. It aims to clarify the applicable boundaries of AI as a clinical auxiliary decision support tool, providing scientific guidance and standardized exploration directions for peers currently engaged in or planning to carry out AI-assisted clinical diagnosis, treatment, and translation of lung cancer.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy and safety of 450nm semiconductor blue laser vaporization prostatectomy in high-risk benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) patients without discontinuing anticoagulant drugs, so as to provide a safe and effectiveminimally invasive treatment option for such patients. Methods A total of 40 high-risk BPH patients who underwent 450nm semiconductor blue laser vaporization prostatectomy in our hospital during Sep. 2023 and Dec. 2024 were selected as the research subjects. The patients were divided into two groups: the oral medication group took oral anticoagulants during the perioperative period, while the discontinuation group discontinued anticoagulants, with 20 cases in either group. The perioperative indicators and changes including international prostate symptom score (IPSS), quality of life score (QoL), maximum urinary flow rate (Qmax) and post-void residual (PVR) were compared between the two groups.Results There were no statistically significant differences between the oral medication group and discontinuation group in operation time [(28.83±15.52)min vs. (26.43±14.02)min], postoperative catheter indwelling time [(3.04±0.89) d vs. (3.23±1.01) d], bladder irrigation time [(27.36±7.54) h vs. (25.46±7.10) h], and decrease in hemoglobin [(8.08±1.82)g/L vs. (7.56±1.68)g/L] (all P＞0.05). Three month after surgery, Qmax in both groups was higher, while IPSS, QoL and PVR were significantly lower (P＜0.05), but there were no statistically significant differences between the two groups (P＞0.05). No serious complications such as urinary incontinence or massive hemorrhage occurred.Conclusion 450nm semiconductor blue laser vaporization prostatectomy for high-risk BPH patients is characterized by high vaporization efficiency and good hemostatic effects. It can significantly improve the clinical symptoms with high safety, especially for high-risk patients who cannot discontinue anticoagulants.

ObjectiveTo investigate the current awareness and optimization recommendations on pneumonia with unknown etiology (PUE) surveillance among Shanghai healthcare professionals, and to provide evidence for the improvement of the surveillance system. MethodsIn December 2024, healthcare professional participants from diverse medical and health institutions were randomly selected within each stratum using a stratified cluster sampling method in all 16 districts of Shanghai for questionnaire surveys on their knowledge and suggestions for optimization of the PUE surveillance system. Descriptive statistics analyses, multivariate logistic regressions, and content analyses were used for data analyses. ResultsA total of 385 survey subjects were involved in the study, including 119 professional staffs from disease prevention and control centers and 266 from medical institutions. Those who understood the case definition for PUE correctly accounted for 67.01% (258/385). Multivariate regression model analyses showed that female gender (aOR=2.22, 95%CI: 1.36‒3.66), professionals from disease control institutions (aOR=2.02, 95%CI: 1.12‒3.72), and those who self-assessed as being familiar with the monitoring system (aOR=2.18, 95%CI:1.23‒3.89) had better understanding of the definition. Overall, 89.61% (345/385) of the survey subjects acknowledged the necessity of the surveillance system. Small number of cases meeting the case definition (54.46%, 214/379), insufficient diagnostic awareness (39.84%, 151/379), and lack of incentives for case reporting (29.29%, 111/379) were major problems for the current surveillance system, with variations observed across different types of institutions. Suggested segments for optimizing the surveillance system included monitoring purpose, case definition, form of monitoring and reporting procedure, organization mechanism, and epidemiological investigation and response. ConclusionThe necessity of PUE surveillance is commonly recognized among healthcare workers. However, the existing system falls short in terms of mastery of case definition and overall surveillance adaptability. There is an urgent need for optimization and improvement to enhance the capacity for preventing and controlling emerging and sudden respiratory infectious diseases.

Tumor angiogenesis is a core pathological driver of malignant growth, invasion, and metastasis, and represents a major obstacle to effective anticancer therapy. Conventional antiangiogenic agents, including neutralizing monoclonal antibodies and small-molecule tyrosine kinase inhibitors, are constrained by drug resistance, on-target toxicity, and the compensatory activation of alternative pro-angiogenic pathways. Targeted protein degradation (TPD) has emerged as a promising strategy that may overcome these limitations. Unlike traditional inhibitors that operate through an occupancy-driven mechanism, degraders function through an event-driven catalytic mechanism in which a single degrader molecule can catalytically promote the ubiquitination and subsequent proteasomal or lysosomal degradation of multiple molecules of the same target protein, thereby eliminating the target protein together with all of its functions rather than merely blocking a single active site. This review systematically delineates the pathophysiological basis of tumor angiogenesis, encompassing the angiogenic switch driven by hypoxia-inducible factor-1α (HIF-1α), the aberrant structural and functional features of the tumor vasculature, and the self-reinforcing vicious cycles that sustain malignant progression. We then categorize the principal TPD modalities, with particular emphasis on proteolysis-targeting chimeras (PROTACs) and lysosome-targeting chimeras (LYTACs), and describe their design principles and mechanisms of action. PROTACs recruit E3 ubiquitin ligases to direct intracellular targets to the ubiquitin-proteasome system for degradation, whereas LYTACs engage lysosome-targeting receptors to route extracellular and membrane proteins to the lysosome, thereby expanding the degradable target space beyond the intracellular proteome. We further summarize recent advances in the application of TPD to antiangiogenic intervention at four distinct levels. First, at the signaling initiation level, degradation of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and its receptor vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 2 (VEGFR2) by aptamer-engineered PROTACs, antibody-based LYTACs, and small-molecule VEGFR2 degraders blocks the upstream trigger of the angiogenic cascade. Second, at the signal transduction level, degradation of focal adhesion kinase (FAK), B-Raf proto-oncogene serine/threonine kinase (BRAF), phosphodiesterase 4 (PDE4), and bromodomain-containing protein 4 (BRD4) interrupts intracellular signaling cascades and transcriptional responses. Third, at the microenvironment level, degradation of proviral integration site for Moloney murine leukemia virus (PIM) kinases curtails the pro-angiogenic signals secreted by tumor-associated macrophages. Fourth, multi-target synergistic strategies, exemplified by bispecific degraders that simultaneously target human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) and VEGF-A, represent a preliminary exploration of cooperative intervention. Representative degraders reviewed herein elicit diverse antiangiogenic phenotypes, ranging from the direct inhibition of endothelial cell proliferation, migration, and tube formation to reductions in microvessel density and the suppression of vasculogenic mimicry. Finally, we discuss the major challenges that remain, including the precise matching of degradation kinetics with the vascular normalization window, target selectivity and tissue specificity, and the activation of compensatory networks and the emergence of resistance. Since the application of TPD in this setting remains at an early stage, the clinical translation of these approaches will require careful optimization of degradation efficiency, spatiotemporal control, and delivery strategies. We also envision future directions toward immunotherapy-based combination regimens and precision-degradation approaches guided by single-cell and spatial transcriptomics. In our view, TPD should not be regarded merely as a substitute for conventional antiangiogenic drugs, but rather as a molecular tool capable of systematically remodeling the tumor vascular microenvironment. When precise control of degradation efficiency and spatiotemporal regulation are integrated with a thorough understanding of the heterogeneity and compensatory capacity of tumor vessels, the full clinical potential of this strategy can be realized.

Objective To investigate the transition intensity and transition probabilities of fall states among middle-aged and older adults in China,and to assess the impact of potential risk factors on falls.Methods We utilized in the study data from the China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study(CHARLS)and employed a multi-state Markov model(MSM)to analyze the transition intensity and probabilities between states of no falls or falls without treatment,falls requiring treatment,and death.Results A total of 14722 participants were enrolled,with a mean age of(59.4 years±9.7 years),and 47.9％were male.The median follow-up period was 9 years(interquartile range[IQR].7-9 years).At baseline,12381 participants(84.1％)reported no falls or falls without treatment,while 2341(15.9％)reported falls requiring treatment.Participants who experienced falls requiring treatment within one follow-up cycle had a 55.2％probability of not falling again or only falling without treatment in the subsequent two years,a 37.6％probability of continuing to experience falls requiring treatment,and a 7.2％probability of death.The risk of transitioning from a state of no falls or falls without treatment to falls requiring treatment increased by 8.6％for every 5-year increase in age.The risk was 35.1％higher for females compared to males.Rural residents had a 10.1％higher risk.Those who were divorced,separated,widowed,or never married had a 20.7％higher risk.Higher degrees of physical function impairment were associated with an increased risk.Depressive symptoms increased the risk by 31.6％.Having one chronic disease raised the risk by 9.6％,while multimorbidity led to a 28.8％increase in risk.Conclusion According to the findings of the study,falls are a dynamic process and emphasis should be given to fall prevention for older adults,individuals with a history of fall-related medical visits,those living alone,those with impaired physical function,and those with depressive symptoms.

Objective To investigate correlations of peripheral blood inflammatory and immune-related indices with clinicopathological features and prognosis in breast cancer patients.Methods A total of 144 breast cancer patients admitted to the Breast Surgery Department of Maternity and Child Healthcare Hospital of Tongzhou District of Beijing were included in cancer group,44 patients with a-typical breast hyperplasia were included in precancerous lesion group,and 131 patients with breast hyperplasia were included in breast hyperplasia group.The neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio(NLR),platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio(PLR),and lymphocyte-to-monocyte ratio(LMR)were compared among the three groups.A three-year follow-up was conducted for prognosis assessment.Based on different NLR,PLR,and LMR levels,the cancer group was divided into low NLR group(＜2.12,67 pa-tients),high NLR group(≥2.12,77 patients),low PLR group(＜133.21,65 patients),high PLR group(≥ 133.21,79 patients),low LMR group(＜5.05,80 patients),and high LMR group(≥5.05,64 patients).The correlations of NLR,PLR,and LMR with clinicopathological features and prognosis in breast cancer patients were analyzed.Results NLR in the cancer group was higher than that in the precancerous lesion group and breast hyperplasia group,the PLR was higher than that in the breast hyperplasia group,and the LMR was lower than that in the breast hyperplasia group(P＜0.05).NLR and PLR in the precancerous lesion group were higher and LMR was lower than those in the breast hyperplasia group(P＜0.05).PLR between patients with different menopa-usal statuses and Ki-67 levels showed statistically significant differences(P＜0.05).LMR between patients with different menopausal status also showed a statistically significant difference(P＜0.05).After a three-year follow-up,5 patients in the cancer group had a poor prognosis and 139 had a good prognosis.Poor prognosis rates between the low NLR and high NLR groups,low PLR and high PLR groups,and low LMR and high LMR groups showed statistically significant differences(P＜0.05).Logistic regression analysis results indicated that increased NLR and PLR were risk factors for poor prognosis in cancer patients,while increased LMR was a protective factor.Conclu-sion Peripheral blood inflammatory and immune-related indicators in breast cancer patients exhibit abnormal changes.Increased NLR and PLR are risk factors for poor prognosis,while increased LMR is a protective factor.

Objective To investigate the expression of serum tumor-associated antigens(TAAs)in patients with rheumatoid arthritis(RA)and analyze their clinical significance for RA.Methods A total of 214 RA patients were enrolled in the RA group,while 198 age-and gender-matched healthy individuals were included in the HC group.Rheumatoid factor(RF),anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide antibody(Anti-CCP),C-reactive protein(CRP),erythrocyte sedimentation rate(ESR),interleu-kin-6(IL-6),ferritin levels,as well as gender,age,disease duration,disease activity score(DAS28)and clinical manifestations were collected from the RA group.The expression of TAAs in RA patients and the clinical characteristics of TAA-positive patients were analyzed.Spearman correla-tion analysis was used to evaluate the relationships between TAAs and clinical indicators in RA pa-tients.Results The positive rate of carbohydrate antigen 125(CA125)in the RA group was 8.88％,which was significantly higher than 1.01％ in the HC group(P＜0.001).Serum CA125 and cytok-eratin fragment 19(CYFRA21-1)levels in the RA group were significantly higher than those in the HC group,whereas alpha-fetoprotein(AFP),carcinoembryonic antigen(CEA),carbohydrate anti-gen 199(CA199)and neuron-specific enolase(NSE)levels were significantly lower(P＜0.001).TAA-positive patients had significantly older age and higher rates of pulmonary interstitial lesions compared to TAA-negative patients(P＜0.05).Patients with DAS28 scores＞5.1 had significantly higher CA125 levels than those with DAS28 scores ≤5.1(P＜0.05).CA125 levelswere positively corre-lated with DAS28 scores,ESR,RF,and anti-CCP antibodies(r=0.142,0.140,0.268,0.183;P＜0.05).Conclusion In RA patients,the positivity rate and levels of some serum TAAs are ele-vated,and TAA-positive patients tend to be older and have higher incidence of pulmonary interstitial lesions.CA125 levels are positively correlated with RA disease activity.

Objective:To evaluate the effects of a reduced-positioning restrictions nursing program on postoperative recovery, sleep quality, self-care ability, and hip joint function in patients undergoing total hip arthroplasty (THA), providing a reference for postoperative positioning management.Methods:A randomized controlled trial was conducted, and 140 THA patients admitted to Zhejiang Provincial People′s Hospital from January 2022 to June 2023 were selected using convenience sampling. They were divided into a control group (70 cases) and an observation group (70 cases) using a random number table. The control group received conventional rehabilitation care, while the observation group received a reduced-positioning restrictions nursing program in addition to the conventional care. The incidence of dislocation at 3 months postoperatively, the activities of daily living, the hip joint function recovery at 1 month and 3 months postoperatively, the sleep quality at 1 month postoperatively were compared between the two groups.Results:Finally 63 cases in the control group and 64 cases in the observation group completed the study. The control group included 25 males and 38 females, with an average age of (65.44 ± 10.97) years, while the observation group included 28 males and 36 females, with an average age of (65.13 ± 12.18) years. At 3 months postoperatively, there was no significant difference in the dislocation rate between the control group and the observation group ( P>0.05). At 1 month and 3 months postoperatively, the scores of activities of daily living in the observation group were (77.89 ± 6.71) and (93.52 ± 6.59) points respectively, which were higher than those in the control group [(69.68 ± 5.53) and (87.38 ± 7.72) points], the differences were statistically significant ( t=5.38, 6.96, both P<0.05), the time, interaction and inter-group effects were all statistically significant ( F=33.93, 10.81, 876.91, all P<0.05). At 1 month postoperatively, the excellent and good rate of hip joint function score grade in the observation group was 73.44% (47/64), which was higher than 41.27% (26/63) in the control group, the difference was statistically significant ( Z=-3.67, P<0.05), there was no statistically significant difference between the two groups at 3 months postoperatively ( P>0.05). At 1 month after the operation, the excellent and good rate of sleep quality score grades in the observation group was 81.25% (52/64), which was higher than 57.14% (36/63) in the control group, and the difference was statistically significant ( Z=-3.00, P<0.05). Conclusions:Incorporating a reduced-positioning restrictions nursing program into the perioperative management of THA does not increase the risk of prosthesis dislocation. This approach enhances patient comfort, improves sleep quality, increases self-care ability, and supports the recovery of hip joint function.
