With the widespread application of immunotherapy, the overall survival rate of lung cancer patients continues to improve, and the accompanying immune-related adverse events are increasingly valued, with cardiac toxicity being the most severe. Early identification and prevention of immunotherapy-related cardiac toxicity in lung cancer patients significantly improves their quality of life. This paper summarizes the early identification (risk factors, evaluation tools, and prediction models) and preventive measures of immunotherapy-related cardiac toxicity in lung cancer patients so as to provide a reference for the early identification, prevention, and management of immunotherapy-related cardiac toxicity in lung cancer patients.

Objective To identify the eye movement characteristics that can distinguish reading interest and comprehensibilityin order to provide reference for prediction of reading interest and comprehensibility based on eye movement.Methods Tobii Glasses 3 was used to collect eye tracking data from 11 participants who read 12 texts on different topics.After reading all the texts,the participants marked each sentence with theirlevels of interest and comprehensibility.Then,Python R and excel software were used to preprocess and analyze the data,and the differences in eye movementamid the four combinations of reading interest(interested or not)and comprehensibility(levels of difficulty)were studiedat overall and individual levels.Results At the overall level,there were statistically significant differences in eye movement between the easy comprehension group and the difficult comprehensiongroup where interest was concerned,but there was little difference between the interested group and the disinterested groupwhen it came to comprehensibility.There were differences in eye movement behavior between individuals,and some of the statistically significant differences in eye movement were consistent across most of the participants.In addition,some of the eye movement characteristicswere oppositeacross different individuals or could not distinguish between the interested and disinterested at the overall level,but could be distinguished within individuals.Conclusion At the overall level,it is relatively easy to determine comprehensibility through eye movement,but it is more difficult to distinguish whether the participant is interested in the sentence or not,especially when the text is easily comprehensible.At the individual level,eye movement behavior varies widely between individuals,and individuals manifest different characteristics in distinguishing reading interest and comprehensibility.

Objective:To explore the anti-aging effects of berberine hydrochloride and underlying mechanism.Methods:Twelve 4-week-old C57BL6/J mice were divided into aging group (fed with normal chaw), aging+ BBR intervention group(fed with normal chaw containing 1 g/kg berberine hydrochloride). At the age of 64 weeks, all the experimental mice were executed. The liver tissues were made into paraffin sections for HE staining to observe the morphological and structural integrity of liver parenchymal cells for pathological evaluation. Immunofluorescence was used to detect p16 protein expression levels in liver. The expression levels of malondialdehyde(MDA), superoxide dismutase(SOD), and glutathione peroxidase(GSH-Px) were detected by colorimetry. The expression levels of interleukin(IL)-1β, IL-6, and tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α) in liver tissues and IL-8 in serum were detected by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA) technique. The p16, p21, nuclear factor erythroid-2 related factor 2(Nrf2), nuclear factor-κB(NF-κB), phospho(p-)NF-κB, inhibitory κB(IκB)α, p-IκBα, and p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase(MAPK) protein expression levels in liver were detected by Western blotting. The same indices were tested in the 16-week-old mice as the young control group.Results:Compared with the young control group, the liver tissue in the aging control group exhibited morphological aging and antioxidant capacity were reduced( P<0.01), and inflammatory factors were increased( P<0.05 or P<0.01). Compared with the aging group, the liver tissues in the aging+ BBR intervention group were still maintain regular arrangement of hepatocytes, the p16 and p21 protein expression levels were significantly increased( P<0.05 or P<0.01), the antioxidant capacity were increased( P<0.05 or P<0.01), the level of inflammatory factors were decresed( P<0.05 or P<0.01), and the p38 MAPK/NF-κB pathway and Nrf2 pathway were inhibited( P<0.001). Conclusion:Berberine hydrochloride improves the aging morphology of the liver, potentially by suppressing the p38 MAPK/NF-κB pathway to reduce inflammation levels and inhibiting the Nrf2 pathway to ameliorate oxidative stress.

Objective:To investigate the hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) clearance condition and its predictive factors after treatment with nucleos(t)ide analogues to pegylated interferon-α add-on therapy in patients with chronic hepatitis B.Methods:Patients with chronic hepatitis B who visited the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from 2018~2019 were prospectively enrolled. HBsAg≤ 1500 IU/mL, hepatitis B e antigen-negative, HBV DNA undetectable, received antiviral treatment with nucleos(t)ide analogues for at least one year, and pegylated interferon-α add-on therapy for 48 weeks were included. The primary endpoint of study was to determine the proportion of HBsAg clearance at 72 weeks. Concurrently, the predictive factors for HBsAg clearance were analyzed. Quantitative and qualitative data were analyzed using a t-test or non-parametric test and a Fisher's exact test.Results:A total of 38 cases were included in this study, of which 13 cases obtained HBsAg clearance at 48 weeks of therapy and another six cases obtained HBsAg clearance throughout the extended treatment period of 72 weeks, accounting for 50.00% of all enrolled patients. There was a significant difference in HBsAg dynamics between the HBsAg clearance group and the non-clearance group (P < 0.05). Univariate logistic regression analysis showed that patients' age, baseline, 12-and 24-week HBsAg levels, and early HBsAg reduction were predictive factors for HBsAg clearance at 72 weeks of treatment. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that age (OR = 1.311; P = 0.016; 95% confidence interval: 1.051~1.635) and HBsAg levels at 24 weeks of treatment (OR = 4.481; P = 0.004; 95% confidence interval: 1.634~12.290) were independent predictors for HBsAg clearance.Conclusion:Hepatitis B e antigen-negative, nucleos(t)ide analogue treated, HBsAg ≤ 1500 IU/mL, and HBV DNA undetectable, peg-IFNα add-on treatment for 48 weeks could promote HBsAg clearance in patients with chronic hepatitis B. Six of the sixteen cases (37.50%) who did not obtain HBsAg clearance at week 48 did so with the course of therapy extended to week 72. Hence, the optimal individualized treatment strategy should be customized according to the predictors rather than the fixed 48-week course. Age (≤ 38), baseline HBsAg level (≤2.86 log 10IU/ml), HBsAg level at 24 weeks (≤ 0.92 log 10IU/ml), and 12-week HBsAg decrease from baseline (≥ 0.67 log 10IU/ml) indicate that patients are highly likely to obtain HBsAg clearance at the 72 weeks of combination therapy, in which the combined indicator based on HBsAg level ≤0.92 log 10IU/ml at 24 weeks will identify 85.0% to 100.0% of patients with HBsAg clearance.

Objective:To evaluate the safety of mass vaccination of inactivated 2019-nCoV vaccine in population aged ≥3 years in Guizhou Province.Methods:The open-label study was conducted in eligible volunteers in Yanhe County of Guizhou from June 2021 to July in 2022. In the study, two doses of the inactivated 2019-nCoV vaccine were given at (0, 28) days according to the immunization schedule. The information about adverse reaction (AR) within 30 minutes and during 0-28 days after vaccination were collected, and the incidence of AR was analyzed by age, doses, and health status.Results:The overall incidence of AR was 1.51% (294/19 458), all ARs, mainly pain at injection site, occurred within 7 days after the vaccination, the AR grade was 1-2. The incidence of AR was 1.01% in age group 3- years (58/5 721), 2.44% in age group 18- years (220/9 017), and 0.34% in age group ≥60 years (16/4 720). The differences were significant ( P<0.001). The incidence of AR after the first dose vaccination (1.20%, 233/19 458) was significantly higher than that after the second dose (0.37%, 61/16 368), the difference was significant ( P<0.001). In the elderly aged ≥60 years, the incidence of AR was 0.36% (9/2 520) in healthy group and 0.32% (7/2 200) in group with underlying medical conditions, the differences were not significant ( P=0.818). Conclusion:The domestic inactivated 2019-nCoV vaccine showed good safety in mass vaccination in population aged ≥3 years, including the elderly in both healthy group and group with underlying medical conditions.
