Immunotherapy for cancer,as an emerging treatment modality,has made significant strides in recent years and has become a crucial therapeutic approach following surgery,radiotherapy,chemotherapy,and targeted therapy.In particular,the clinical utilization of immune checkpoint inhibitors(ICIs)has not only enhanced the survival rates of patients with refractory or recurrent tumors but has also significantly optimized the overall strategy for cancer treatment.However,as the population undergoing cancer immunotherapy continues to grow,this expansion not only yields clinical benefits but also precipitates a range of specific adverse reactions known as immune-related adverse events(irAEs).Pleural effusion is a common and severe complication in cancer patients,significantly affecting both their quality of life and treatment outcomes.Typically,tumor-related pleural effusion is often due to pleural metastasis,with malignant pleural effusion(MPE)characterized by rapid growth,being difficult to control,and tendency for recurrence.With the approval of new drugs and the expansion of indications for existing medications,the number of cancer patients receiving ICIs treatment is increasing,bringing ICIs-related pleural effusion into focus.While ICIs treatment-related pleural effusion is relatively rare in clinical practice,it is closely linked to treatment choices of patients and prognosis.Unlike MPE,the pathogenesis of ICIs treatment-related pleural effusion is more complex,not only involving non-specific immune activation leading to autoimmune inflammatory reactions but also potentially related to nodular pleural granulomatous reactions,eosinophilic chronic pleurisy,and tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes.In terms of diagnosis,ICIs treatment-related pleural effusion is typically diagnosed through exclusion,requiring the exclusion of other causes such as tumor progression,radiotherapy,and chemotherapy-induced pleural effusion,adding complexity and difficulty to the diagnostic process.Treatment for ICIs treatment-related pleural effusion often involves glucocorticoids,tocilizumab,or infliximab,aiming to alleviate symptoms and improve prognosis by suppressing excessive immune reactions.Preventing the occurrence of ICIs treatment-related pleural effusion is equally crucial,necessitating comprehensive patient assessment before ICIs administration and continuous monitoring during treatment to promptly detect and manage potential adverse reactions.Through this comprehensive management approach,the impact of ICIs treatment-related pleural effusion on patient quality of life and treatment outcomes can be minimized,optimizing overall treatment results.This review aimed to explore the pathogenesis,histological features,clinical manifestations,diagnostic methods and treatment strategies of ICIs treatment-related pleural effusion,and delve into the characteristics of ICIs treatment-related pleural effusion,in order to enhance understanding of this complication and provide a reference for clinical practice.

Objective:To explore the clinical application value of ultrasound detection of endometrial blood flow perfusion in evaluating the pregnancy outcomes of frozen-thawed embryo transfer (FET) cycles.Methods:A case-control study of 226 patients underwent preimplantation genetic testing (PGT) in the Department of Reproductive Medicine of Chengdu Women's and Children's Central Hospital was conducted. Patients enrolled from December 2021 to August 2024 underwent three-dimensional ultrasound endometrial receptivity testing on the day before FET. According to the pregnancy outcomes, they were divided into clinical pregnancy group ( n=155) and non-pregnancy group ( n=71). The general characteristics and endometrial receptivity parameters were compared between the two groups. Binary logistic regression was used to analyze the factors affecting pregnancy. Results:There was no significant difference in age, proportion of primary infertility, anti-Müllerian hormone, and antral follicle count between the two groups (all P>0.05). The duration of infertility in the clinical pregnancy group [(2.79±2.45) years] was significantly lower than that in the non-pregnancy group [(3.44±1.68) years, P=0.046], the basal luteinizing hormone (LH) level in clinical pregnancy group [(4.37±3.02) U/L] was higher than that in the non-pregnancy group [(3.59±2.02) U/L, P=0.047]. On the day before embryo transfer, the single-plane endometrial blood flow branch in the pregnancy group (4.83±1.57) was more than that in the non-pregnancy group (3.44±1.51), the difference was statistically significant ( P=0.001). The clinical pregnancy group had significantly different endometrial morphology types A [5.2% (8/155)], B [25.8% (40/155)], and C [69.0% (107/155)] compared with the non-pregnancy group [16.9% (12/71), 33.8% (24/71), 49.3% (35/71), P=0.003], respectively, the number of peristalsis waves in the clinical pregnancy group [1(0, 2)] was less than that in the non-pregnancy group [1(0, 4), P=0.046]. There were no significant differences in endometrial thickness, peristaltic wave classification, endometrial volume, endometrial and subendometrial blood flow pulse index/resistance index between the two groups (all P>0.05). Binary logistic regression analysis showed that the endometrial blood flow branch, endometrial peristalsis and basal LH level were independent factors affecting the pregnancy outcome of patients underwent PGT during FET cycle ( OR=1.855, 95% CI: 1.478-2.327, P=0.001; OR=0.813, 95% CI: 0.667-0.990, P=0.040; OR=1.163, 95% CI: 1.000-1.351, P=0.049). Among them, the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve of endometrial blood flow branches for the prediction of PGT-FET pregnancy outcome was 0.725, P=0.001. Conclusion:Endometrial blood flow branch, which represents the intensity of blood perfusion, has a good clinical value in evaluating the pregnancy outcome during FET cycle.

OBJECTIVE To study the mechanism of Wenshen Tongdu Recipe in promoting the recovery of motor function in rats with spinal cord injury.METHODS A total of 144 SD rats were randomly divided into sham operation group,model group,predni-sone group,low-dose Wenshen Tongdu Recipe group,medium-dose Wenshen Tongdu Recipe group,high-dose Wenshen Tongdu Recipe group,3BDO group,and 3BDO+Wenshen Tongdu Recipe group(medium dose).The rat spinal cord injury model was estab-lished by modified Allen's method.Intervention began 1 day after modeling,and the drug was administered continuously for 14 days.During the drug administration period,the motor function of the rats in each group was evaluated by Basso-Beattie-Bresnahan(BBB)score and inclined plane test.On the 3rd,7th and 14th days after modeling,the pathological changes of the spinal cord tissues of the rats in each group were observed by HE staining;the expression levels of inflammatory factors IL-1β,IL-6,IL-4 and IL-10 in the serum of the rats in each group were detected by ELISA;the expression of Beclin 1,LC3B and p62 proteins was detected by immu-nohistochemistry;the expression of CD16 and CD206 proteins was detected by immunofluorescence staining;the expression of autoph-agy-related molecules(Beclin 1,LC3B)and Akt/mTOR pathway-related proteins in the spinal cord tissues was detected by Western blot.RESULTS Compared with the model group,the BBB score and angle of the inclined board test of rats in the medium-dose Wenshen Tongdu Recipe group were increased,and the disordered arrangement of spinal cord tissue,spinal cord vacuoles and inflam-matory infiltration were significantly improved,especially on the 14th day.Compared with the sham operation group,the expression levels of serum IL-1β and IL-6 in the model group increased(P<0.01),and the expression levels of IL-4 and IL-10 decreased(P<0.05,P<0.01);compared with the model group,the levels of IL-1β and IL-6 in the Wenshen Tongdu Recipe group were signifi-cantly decreased(P<0.01),and the levels of IL-4 and IL-10 were significantly increased(P<0.05,P<0.01);compared with the Wenshen Tongdu Recipe group,the serum IL-1β and IL-6 concentrations of mice in the 3BDO group increased(P<0.01),and the level of IL-10 decreased(P<0.05).Compared with the sham operation group,the M1/M2 ratio,P62 protein expression,p-Akt/Akt and p-mTOR/mTOR ratios in the spinal cord tissue of the rats in the model group were significantly increased(P<0.05,P<0.01),and the relative protein expression of Beclin1 was decreased(P<0.01);compared with the model group,the M1/M2 ratio,p-Akt/Akt and p-p70S6K/p70S6K ratios in the Wenshen Tongdu Recipe group were significantly decreased(P<0.01).Compared with the model group,the Beclin1 protein level in the 3BDO group was decreased,and the p-Akt/Akt and p-mTOR/mTOR ratios were increased(P<0.05,P<0.01).Compared with the Wenshen Tongdu Recipe group,the M1/M2 ratio in the 3BDO group and the 3BDO+Wen-shen Tongdu Recipe group increased(P<0.01),the positive rates of Beclin1 and LC3B proteins in the 3BDO group decreased signifi-cantly(P<0.01),and the p-p70S6K/p70S6K ratio in the 3BDO+Wenshen Tongdu Recipe group increased significantly(P<0.01).CONCLUSION Wenshen Tongdu Recipe may regulate microglial polarization through Akt/mTOR signaling pathway to acti-vate autophagy,promote the secretion of anti-inflammatory factors,reduce the release of pro-inflammatory factors,alleviate neuroin-flammatory response,and thus promote spinal cord injury repair.

Objective To explore the distribution and characteristics of traditional Chinese medicine(TCM)syndromes in patients with adenomyosis.Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on the data collected from patients with adenomyosis between December 2019 and April 2022 based on a cross-sectional survey.Variables included age,body mass index(BMI),disease duration,geographical region,dysmenorrhea,menstrual flow,diagnosis and treatment goals,history of adenomyosis-related surgery,postoperative recurrence,and carbohydrate antigen 125(CA125)and carbohydrate antigen 199(CA199)levels.The distribution pattern of TCM syndromes,including general information of patients with different syndromes,CA125 and CA199 levels,were analyzed.The relationship between syndromes and age,BMI,duration of disease,geographic region,and history of adenomyosis-related surgery were analyzed using the multinomial logistic regression.Results A total of 1,816 patients with adenomyosis were included.The most common TCM syndrome was syndrome of cold coagulation and blood stasis(36.84%).The other four TCM syndromes,ranked by frequency,were syndrome of qi stagnation and blood stasis(25.39%),syndrome of blood stasis due to qi deficiency(17.35%),syndrome of kidney deficiency and blood stasis(15.97%),and syndrome of intermin-gled phlegm and blood stasis(4.46%).Significant differences in age,disease duration,and BMI were observed among patients with different TCM syndromes(P<0.05).Patients with syndrome of cold congelation and blood stasis,syndrome of kidney deficiency and blood stasis,were younger than those with syndrome of qi stagnation and blood stasis.Patients with syndrome of cold congelation and blood stasis had a longer disease duration than those with syndrome of blood stasis due to qi deficiency.Patients with syndrome of blood stasis due to qi deficiency had lower BMI(P<0.05)than those with syndrome of intermin-gled phlegm and blood stasis.The most common symptom in North China,East China,Southwest China,Northwest China,and Northeast China was syndrome of cold congelation and blood stasis,accounting for 45.39%,35.98%,30.33%,41.38%,and 50.00%,respectively.The most common syndrome in Southern and Central China was syndrome of qi stagnation and blood stasis,accounting for 31.34%and 36.23%respectively.Differences in syndrome distribution were observed between patients in East,Southwest,South,and Central China and those in North China(P<0.05).Syndrome distribution also varied significantly across different diagnosis and treatment goals,as well as menstrual conditions(P<0.05).For treatment goals such as pain relief,lesion control,menstrual flow reduction,and recurrence prevention,the dominant syndromes were syndrome of cold congelation and blood stasis(40.67%,37.13%,36.95%,and 43.35%,respectively)and syndrome of qi stagnation and blood stasis(29.35%,26.39%,26.10%,and 25.75%,respectively).Among patients seeking assisted pregnancy,the primary syndromes were syndrome of cold congelation and blood stasis(41.12%)and syndrome of kidney deficiency and blood stasis(18.69%).Patients with dysmenorrhea were mostly diagnosed with syndrome of cold congelation and blood stasis(39.95%)and syndrome of qi stagnation and blood stasis(28.52%).Differences in syndrome distribution were observed between patients with small and large menstrual volume,with a higher proportion of syndrome of kidney deficiency and blood stasis in patients with small menstrual volume(P<0.05).However,no significant difference was noted in the distribution of TCM syndromes in different treatment stages.Additionally,no statistical significance was observed in the CA125 and CA199 levels among patients with various TCM syndromes.Multinomial logistic regression analysis revealed that compared with syndrome of cold congelation and blood stasis,the course of disease was the influencing factor of syndrome of blood stasis due to qi deficiency,BMI was the influencing factor of syndrome of qi stagnation and blood stasis and syndrome of intermin-gled phlegm and blood stasis,and geography was the influencing factor of syndrome of blood stasis due to qi deficiency,syndrome of qi stagnation and blood stasis,syndrome of kidney deficiency and blood stasis,and syndrome of intermin-gled phlegm and blood stasis.Conclusion Syndrome of cold coagulation and blood stasis is the most prevalent TCM syndrome among patients with adenomyosis,and the distribution of TCM syndromes has a specific regularity.The syndromes are independently correlated with region,disease duration,and BMI.

Objective To explore the multimorbidity pattern and traditional Chinese medicine(TCM)syndrome characteristics of patients with adenomyosis(AM)and to provide insights and data support for medical treatment and comprehensive AM management.Methods By retrospectively analyzing multi-center,large-sample,nationwide cross-sectional survey data,patients were divided into a single AM group or a multimorbidity group based on whether they had other diseases.The prevalence rates of specific multimorbidity or a combination of multimorbidities were calculated respectively.Single-factor analysis was used to explore the influence of age,course of disease,education level,labor nature,monthly income,production history,abortion history,operation history,region,and TCM syndromes on multimorbidity in patients with AM.The multimorbidity patterns of patients with AM were explored using Apriori association rules,and the distribution characteristics of TCM syndromes in different multimorbidity patterns were explored.Results Among 1,814 patients with AM,1,429 were in the multimorbidity group(prevalence of 78.78％).Compared with the single AM group,the patients in the multimorbidity group had a long disease course,high academic qualifications,jobs that mostly involved sitting,a history of surgery,and were primarily concentrated in the north(P＜0.05).The proportion of patients with qi stagnation and blood stasis syndrome decreased,whereas the proportion of patients with kidney deficiency and blood stasis syndrome increased.Ten multimorbidity association rules were sorted according to the confidence level,and the first place of binary association rules was breast nodule to breast hyperplasia,and the first place of ternary association rules was hysteromyoma,breast nodule to breast hyperplasia.Comprehensive support and confidence level,in the binary association rules,the strong association rule was breast nodule to thyroid nodule,and sub-strong association rule was thyroid nodule to breast hyperplasia;In the ternary association rules,the strong association rule was hysteromyoma,breast nodules to breast hyperplasia,and sub-strong association rule was endometriosis,thyroid nodules to breast hyperplasia.There was no significant difference in the distribution of TCM syndromes in AM patients with different binary and ternary multimorbidity patterns.Conclusion Patients with AM have different multimorbidity patterns,and the TCM syndromes of patients with AM under different multimorbidity patterns have different characteristics.The management system of AM multimorbidity should be further developed to ensure more comprehensive and standardized health management for patients with AM.
