Background Climate change poses a significant threat to public health. In China, relevant health intervention research is still in its early stages, and evidence for evaluating the effectiveness of regional climate change health adaptation strategies and measures is scarce. Objective To investigate the level of climate change-related health literacy among residents in Shenzhen, implement targeted health interventions, and assess the intervention effects as well as their influencing factors. Methods From July 2023 to January 2024, 4 communities were randomly selected in Shenzhen, and a total of 896 community residents were enrolled and divided into an intervention group (444 participants) and a control group (452 participants). Baseline and follow-up surveys on climate change-related health literacy were conducted among residents for both groups. During the period between the two surveys, the intervention group received targeted health interventions. Health literacy—comprising 3 dimensions: basic health knowledge and concepts, basic health skills, and healthy lifestyles—was defined as achieving ≥80% of the total score. A differences-in-differences model was adopted to analyze the impact of the intervention, and multiple linear regression was used to explore the factors influencing the intervention effect. Results The baseline survey showed that 240 out of the 896 surveyed residents (26.79%) possessed climate change health literacy. For the 3 dimensions, the number of residents and the proportions with corresponding literacy in descending order were: basic health skills (521, 58.15%), healthy lifestyles (345, 38.50%), and basic health knowledge and concepts (44, 4.91%). After the intervention, the intervention group showed a 3.19% increase in the total health literacy score, a 3.55% increase in basic health knowledge and concepts, and a 4.24% increase in basic health skills (t=2.79, 2.77, and 2.47 respectively) (P<0.05). No significant change was observed in healthy lifestyle scores (t=0.70, P>0.05). Further analysis showed that awareness of the “dual carbon goals” and occupation were significantly associated with the intervention effect on overall health literacy (P<0.05). For basic health knowledge and concepts, occupation, history of chronic diseases, and awareness of the “dual carbon goals” had statistically significant effects on the intervention outcomes (P<0.05). Regarding basic health skills, awareness of the “dual carbon goals” significantly influenced the intervention effect (P<0.001). In terms of healthy lifestyles, gender, educational level, occupation, and awareness of climate change were significantly associated with the intervention effect (P<0.05). Conclusion The climate change-related health literacy among community residents in Shenzhen is in urgent need of improvement. Health interventions can effectively enhance residents' basic health knowledge and concepts, basic health skills, and overall literacy level. In the future, it is necessary to strengthen the popularization of climate change health knowledge based on different population characteristics and further optimize intervention strategies, to comprehensively improve residents' health adaptation capacity to climate change.

OBJECTIVE To evaluate the efficacy and safety of Hydromorphone hydrochloride extended-release tablets （HHERT） in the treatment of chronic cancer-related pain （CCRP） in real-world settings， and to explore the effectiveness and reasons for rotation patterns between HHERT and other opioid drugs （OOD）. METHODS Data were retrospectively collected from 142 CCRP patients receiving strong opioid therapy at Fujian Cancer Hospital from January to December 2025. Patients were divided into the continuous HHERT group and the drug rotation group based on medication status. The efficacy and incidence of adverse reactions were compared between the two groups. The drug rotation group was further subdivided into the OOD-HHERT group （rotated from OOD to HHERT） and the HHERT-OOD group （rotated from HHERT to OOD）. Dose conversion coefficients were compared with guideline recommendations， and pain relief status， rotation types and reasons for rotation were analyzed between the two subgroups. RESULTS In the 142 CCRP patients， 107 achieved pain relief， with an overall response rate of 75.35%. After 4 weeks of treatment， there was a statistically significant difference in efficacy between the continuous HHERT group and the drug rotation group （ P ＜0.05）. A total of 110 adverse reactions occurred in 86 patients， with an overall adverse reactions of 77.46%， there were no statistically significant differences between the continuos HHERT group and the drug rotation group in the incidence of drug adverse reactions （ P ＞0.05）. 99 experienced opioid rotation， with an overall rotation rate of 69.72%. The pain relief rates after rotation were 74.36% in the HHERT-OOD group and 73.33% in the OOD-HHERT group， indicating comparable efficacy （ P ＞0.05）. In 31 patients （31.31%）， the dose conversion coefficients did not conform to guideline recommendations. There was a significant difference in the distribution of rotation types between the two groups （ P ＜0.05）： the HHERT-OOD group was dominated by route of administration changes， while the OOD-HHERT group was dominated by unchanged route of administration. The proportion of rotations due to restricted route of administration and drug supply shortage was significantly higher in the HHERT-OOD group than that in the OOD-HHERT group （ P ＜0.05）； the proportion of rotations due to inadequate analgesic effect was significantly higher in the OOD-HHERT group than that in the HHERT-OOD group （ P ＜0.05）. CONCLUSIONS In real-world settings， both HHERT and opioid rotation strategies demonstrate favorable analgesic effects in the treatment of CCRP. Rotation patterns are primarily driven by practical factors such as inadequate analgesic effect and restricted route of administration. It is necessary to standardize dose conversion standards and indications for opioid rotation to improve individualized cancer pain management.

Objective To develop a symptom and function assessment scale for patients after Nuss procedure for pectus excavatum and to test its reliability and validity. Methods Following the principles and procedures of patient-reported outcome (PRO) scale development stipulated by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, an initial draft was formed through literature analysis, qualitative interviews, and Delphi expert consultation. The preliminary draft was used to conduct a pre-survey on patients who underwent Nuss procedure for pectus excavatum at Guangdong Provincial People's Hospital, and the reliability and validity of the scale were tested. Results A preliminary PRO-based symptom and function scale was constructed, covering two domains: symptoms and impact on daily functions. The symptom dimension included six items: chest tightness, palpitations, pain, shortness of breath, foreign body sensation of the steel plate, and distress; while the impact on daily functions included four items: difficulty in getting out of bed or lying down, raising arms, bending over, and standing or sitting for a long time. A total of 73 patients who underwent Nuss procedure for pectus excavatum were included in the questionnaire survey, with 70 valid questionnaires collected, including 64 males and 6 females, with 56 patients aged 12-17 years and 14 patients ≥18 years. Through exploratory factor analysis, two common factors were extracted, with a cumulative variance contribution rate of 70%. The Cronbach’s α coefficient of the scale was 0.917. Conclusion The scale developed in this study has good reliability and validity, high reliability and stability, and can be used as an evaluation tool for the recovery status of patients after Nuss procedure for pectus excavatum.

Objective To explore the necessity of routine chest X-ray (CXR) examination after lung surgery based on patient symptom burden. Methods A retrospective study was conducted on the patients who underwent thoracoscopic lung resection at the Department of Thoracic Surgery of Guangdong Provincial People's Hospital from March 2020 to April 2023. Routine CXR findings obtained within 24 h post-operation, after chest tube removal, and at 1-month post-discharge, as well as subsequent clinical interventions triggered by these examinations, were collected and analyzed. The Perioperative Symptom Assessment Lung (PSA-Lung) inventory was used to quantify symptom burden including pain, dyspnea, and sleep disturbance. Results A total of 2 101 patients were collected, including 986 males and 1 115 females, with a median age of 56 years. The rate of clinical interventions triggered by routine CXR examinations was very low, being 1.0%, 0.5%, and 1.3% within 24 h post-operation, within 12 h after extubation, and at 1-month post-discharge, respectively. One month after discharge, patients in the intervention group exhibited significantly higher scores for dyspnea (3 points vs. 2 points, P=0.015), pain (2 points vs. 1 point, P=0.039), and sleep disturbance (3 points vs. 2 points, P=0.036) compared with the non-intervention group. Conclusion Very few routine postoperative CXR examinations change patients’ management, and patients who need extra-intervention tended to have more severe symptom burden after surgery.

Background and Aims:Surgical treatment is a cornerstone of breast cancer management;however,the physical trauma and psychological burden associated with surgery may adversely affect patients'quality of life(QoL).Based on data from a prospective cohort,this study was conducted to evaluate changes in postoperative QoL among breast cancer patients and to identify mediating factors influencing QoL,thereby providing evidence for perioperative rehabilitation strategies.Methods:Female breast cancer patients who underwent local surgical treatment at Suining Central Hospital between June 2024 and January 2025 were enrolled.The Constant-Murley Shoulder Score,EORTC QLQ-C30,and QLQ-BR23 questionnaires were used pre-and postoperatively to assess shoulder joint function,and QoL.Paired t-tests were used to analyze changes in scores before and after surgery.A mediation model was applied to explore the indirect pathways through which surgery impacts QoL.Additionally,subgroup analyses were conducted to compare QoL changes across different surgical modalities.Results:A total of 148 patients were included,with median age of 54(46-60)years old Postoperative psychological health significantly improved,while shoulder function and overall QoL scores markedly declined(all P<0.001).According to QLQ-C30,functional domains such as physical and role functioning worsened,while symptom burden increased.The QLQ-BR23 revealed significantly higher scores for breast and upper limb symptoms postoperatively(both P<0.001).Subgroup analyses showed that patients undergoing axillary lymph node dissection experienced greater declines in shoulder function and QoL compared to those receiving sentinel lymph node biopsy(both P<0.05).QoL deterioration was comparable between mastectomy and breast-conserving surgery,although the former was associated with more prominent pain and breast symptoms.Mediation analysis indicated that shoulder function,breast symptoms,and physical functioning served as mediators in the impact of surgery on QoL,while better psychological health exerted a protective effect.Conclusion:Surgical treatment significantly affects postoperative QoL in breast cancer patients,with local functional impairment and symptom exacerbation serving as key mediators.Different surgical approaches have varying impacts on QoL.Enhancing postoperative shoulder rehabilitation,symptom management,and psychological support may improve patients'QoL.

Intestinal fibrosis is a significant clinical challenge in inflammatory bowel diseases, but no effective anti-fibrotic therapy is currently available. Glucagon receptor (GCGR) and glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor (GLP1R) are both peptide hormone receptors involved in energy metabolism of epithelial cells. However, their role in intestinal fibrosis and the underlying mechanisms remain largely unexplored. Herein GCGR and GLP1R were found to be reduced in the stenotic ileum of patients with Crohn's disease as well as in the fibrotic colon of mice with chronic colitis. The downregulation of GCGR and GLP1R led to the accumulation of the metabolic byproduct lactate, resulting in histone H3K9 lactylation and exacerbated intestinal fibrosis through epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT). Dual activating GCGR and GLP1R by peptide 1907B reduced the H3K9 lactylation in epithelial cells and ameliorated intestinal fibrosis in vivo. We uncovered the role of GCGR/GLP1R in regulating EMT involved in intestinal fibrosis via histone lactylation. Simultaneously activating GCGR/GLP1R with the novel dual agonist peptide 1907B holds promise as a treatment strategy for alleviating intestinal fibrosis.

Objective:To investigate the correlation between non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) and chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection by using the method of two-sample bidirectional Mendelian randomization (MR) analysis.Methods:Genetic variation data for NHL came from the Finnish database (FinnGen) Consortium 2021 public genome-wide association study (GWAS) dataset including 1 088 patients with NHL and 299 952 control subjects. The GWAS dataset for chronic HBV infection was derived from GWAS analysis published in 2021, including 145 NHL patients and 351 740 control subjects. NHL was used as an exposure factor, single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) significantly associated with NHL was used as an instrumental variable (IV), chronic HBV infection was used as an outcome variable. The two-sample MR analysis was performed by using inverse-variance weighted (IVW) method. Chronic HBV infection was taken as an exposure factor, SNP significantly associated with chronic HBV infection was taken as IV, and NHL was taken as outcome variable, and then reverse two-sample MR analysis was performed. The IVW method used the inverse variance of each IV as the weight to fit, and the ratio method was used to measure SNP one by one and make weighted regression analysis, so as to obtain the overall estimate. MR-Egger regression and the weighted median (WME) method were also used to supplement the IVW method. In sensitivity analysis, leave-one-out sensitivity analysis was used to evaluate the impact of a single SNP. Cochran Q test was used to analyze the heterogeneity of the selected IV. MR-Egger regression was used to measure the average horizontal pleiotropy of IV, and the P-value of directivity was calculated. The MR-pleiotropy residual sum and outlier (MR-PRESSO) Global Test was used to exclude possible horizontal pleiotropic outliers and reduce bias. Results:In the leave-one-out sensitivity analysis, SNP with significant effects on causal associations was excluded. In forward MR analysis, IVs were 10 SNPs associated with NHL; the IVW method indicated that there was no causal association between NHL and chronic HBV infection ( OR = 0.979, 95% CI: 0.925-1.036, P = 0.465). MR-Egger regression ( OR = 0.992, 95% CI: 0.926-1.062, P = 0.825) and WME method ( OR = 0.992, 95% CI: 0.934-1.055, P = 0.805) were used as supplementary methods to obtain the consistent results. In sensitivity analysis, Cochran Q test showed no heterogeneity among IVs (IVW method: P = 0.271, MR-Egger regression: P = 0.239). Horizontal pleiotropy was not found in the MR-Egger regression (intercept was -0.01, P = 0.778) and the MR-PRESSO Global Test ( P > 0.05), suggesting robust results. In the reverse MR analysis, IVs were 8 SNPs associated with NHL; the IVW method ( OR = 1.117, 95% CI: 0.942-1.324, P = 0.202) also found no significant causal relationship between chronic HBV infection and NHL; MR-Egger regression ( OR = 0.777, 95% CI: 0.450-1.343, P = 0.401) and WME method ( OR = 1.120, 95% CI: 0.887-1.415, P = 0.351) also showed similar risk estimates. Sensitivity analysis also suggested the consistency and reliability of the results. Cochran Q test showed no heterogeneity among IVs (IVW method: P = 0.775, MR-Egger regression: P = 0.903). Horizontal pleiotropy was not found by MR-Egger regression (intercept was 0.102, P = 0.548) and MR-PRESSO Global Test ( P > 0.05). Conclusions:MR analysis suggests no causal relationship between NHL and chronic HBV infection.

Ribosomal protein(RP)is an important part of ribosome,which is very important for the assembly and function of ribosome.Recent studies have shown that RP is closely related to the processes of growth,senescence,apoptosis,invasion and drug resistance of tumor cells.The drug resistance of tumors is one of the main reasons for the low cure rate of tumors.RP can affect the drug resistance of tumor cells through a variety of mechanisms,such as changes in signal pathway,epithelial-mesenchymal transformation,cancer stem cells and tumor microenvironment,resulting in a poor prognosis of cancer patients.Ribosome tar-geting therapy is a promising method for the treatment of cancer patients.This review summarizes the mecha-nism of RP and many kinds of cancer drug resistance,provides new ideas for elucidating the mechanism of tumor drug resistance,and then provides new strategies for clinical prevention and reduction of tumor drug re-sistance.

Objective:To investigate the views of doctors on the incidence and treatment tactics of mild progression after epithelial growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitor(EGFR-TKI)treatment in lung adenocarcinoma and provide suggestions to optimize the counter-measure strategies.Methods:Convenience sampling was used to conduct an online questionnaire survey for doctors specializing in onco-logy and respiratory diseases.Results:584 valid questionnaires were collected,and all the doctors expressed concerns regarding mild tumor progression after EGFR-TKI treatment.The coping strategies included maintaining the original TKI treatment,adding other treatments to the original TKI,changing the regimen,and performing secondary tissue biopsy,among which,most doctors chose to add other treatments to the original TKI.Conclusions:Doctors have noticed the enlargement of target lesions in still stable disease(SD)and most frequently chose to add other treatments to the original TKI as a coping strategy.This finding can provide a reference for framing future guidelines for large sample prospective clinical studies that are needed to find the most effective synergistic treatment options.

Objective:To analyze the drug resistance and virulence characteristics of KPC-2-producing carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae(CRKP). Methods:A total of 26 non-repeating CRKP strains clinically isolated from a Class Ⅲ hospital in Kunming from August 2021 to March 2022 were collected. Mass spectrometry and the VITEK 2 Compact system were used to identify the bacteria and perform drug susceptibility tests. PCR was used to amplify the drug resistance and virulence genes carried by the strains. These CRKP strains were divided into a hypervirulent CRKP(CR-hvKP) group and a CR-non-hvKP group according to the characteristic virulence genes of hypervirulent Klebsiella pneumoniae. The virulence phenotypes of CRKP were investigated by wire drawing test, serum resistance test and siderophore qualitative and quantitative tests. The whole genomes of CRKP-67 (a CR-hvKP strain) and CRKP-94 (a CR-non-hvKP strain) were sequenced by the Illumina high-throughput sequencing platform, to further analyze the drug resistance genes, virulence genes, and virulence plasmidds carried by the strains. Results:The drug sensitivity results indicated that all 26 strains were resistant to carbapenem, cephalosporins, fluoroquinolones and β-lactam/β-lactam inhibitor complexes. The resistance rates to amicacin, cotrimoxazole and gentamicin were 61.54%(6/26), 57.69%(15/26) and 73.08%(9/26), respectively. Regarding the drug resistance gene amplification results, the carrying rates of blaKPC-2, blaNDM-1, blaOXA-48, blaVIM, blaIMP, blaSME, blaSHV, blaCTX-M and blaTEM were 100.00%(26/26), 0, 0, 0, 0, 100.00%(26/26), 100.00%(26/26), 15.38% (4/26) and 73.08%(19/26), respectively. In the 26 strains, the carrying rates of toxic genes entB, entC, ureA, uge, wabG, ycf, irp1, irp2, mrkD, fimH and ybtS were 100.00%(26/26), while the carrying rates of virulence genes kfuB, iroN, aero, magA and alls were 0. The positive rate of string test was 66.7%(6/9) in the CR-hvKP group and 0 in the CR-non-hvKP group. The serum killing test showed a high sensitivity rate of 77.78%(7/9), a low sensitivity rate of 11.11%(1/9), and a serum resistance rate of 11.11%(1/9) in the CR-hvKP group. In the CR-non-hvKP group, the high sensitivity rate was 29.41%(5/17); the low sensitivity rate was 17.65%(3/17), and the serum resistance rate was 52.94%(9/17). There was no statistical significance between the two groups( P>0.05). The qualitative results of siderophore showed that all strains produced yellow chelating circles with slightly different color depth and size. The quantitative results of siderophore experiment showed that the average siderophore production level of CR-hvKP group was 40.74%, and that of CR-non-hvKP group was 28.21%. The level was higher in the CR-hvKP group than in the CR-non-hvKP group, and the difference was statistically significant( P<0.05). Whole-genome sequencing results showed that CRKP-67 was ST11 type and contained 3 plasmids. Among them, plasmid pCRKP-67-A carried a series of virulence genes, including iucABCD, iutA, rmpA, rmpA2, iroB and peg344, which were highly virulent characteristic genes. Plasmid pCRKP-67-B carried blaKPC-2, blaCTX-M, blaSHV, blaTEM and other drug-resistant genes. Plasmid pCRKP-67-C carried sul2, tetR, tetA and other drug-resistant genes. The CRKP-94 was of ST340 type and contained a drug-resistant plasmid carrying blaKPC-2, blaCTX-M, blaSHV, blaTEM and other drug-resistant genes. Conclusions:CRKP strains are highly resistant, and are only sensitive to a few antibiotics, and carry a variety of drug resistance genes. The main resistance mechanism to carbapenem antibiotics is the presence of the blaKPC-2 gene, which is located on the plasmids, which results in the spread of carbapenem resistance. The types and quantity of virulence genes carried by the CR-hvKP strain are more and greater respectively than those carried by the CR-non-hvKP strain. The co-existence of drug-resistant and virulence plasmids in CR-hvKP strains may lead to the co-transmission of high drug resistance and hypervirulence, which should be highly valued by relevant departments.
