Objective To compare the cost and efficacy of ambulatory versus hospitalized surgery for lung tumor patients. Methods Two researchers independently conducted a computer search on February 14, 2025, in databases including CNKI, PubMed, Web of Science, Ovid Medline, Cochrane Library, and Wanfang Database, with the search period covering from the inception of these databases to February 2025. The outcome indicators were postoperative complication rate, length of hospital stay, hospitalization costs, et al. For the included randomized controlled trials and non-randomized controlled trials, we used the Cochrane risk of bias assessment tool and the Newcastle Ottawa Scale (NOS) respectively to evaluate the quality of the literature, and extracted data from the included studies for meta-analysis using RevMan 5.4 and Stata 18.0. Results A total of 12 researches were ultimately included, consisting of 2 randomized controlled trials, 2 prospective cohort studies, and 8 retrospective cohort studies, involving a total of 76 403 patients. All researches were evaluated as high-quality. Meta-analysis showed that the ambulatory surgery group had advantages over the hospitalized surgery group in terms of operation time [MD=−21.07, 95%CI (−30.55, −11.58), P<0.001], length of hospital stay [MD=−2.17, 95%CI (−3.25, −1.09), P<0.001], hospitalization costs [SMD=−1.22, 95%CI (−2.18, −0.26), P=0.01], and overall postoperative complications [OR=0.48, 95%CI (0.32, 0.74), P<0.001]. There was no statistically significant difference between the two groups in terms of postoperative hoarseness [OR=0.62, 95%CI (0.24, 1.61), P=0.33] and postoperative chylothorax [OR=0.27, 95%CI (0.07, 1.07), P=0.06]. Conclusion Compared to conventional hospitalized lung tumor resection, ambulatory lung tumor resection can significantly reduce the patient’s surgery and hospital stay time, decrease hospitalization costs, and reduce the incidence of postoperative complications. Ambulatory surgery can improve hospital efficiency while reducing the economic burden on patients. It is worthy of further promotion and application.

Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer-related deaths worldwide， and tumor metastasis is a key factor contributing to the mortality of most lung cancer patients. Aberrant activation of epithelial-mesenchymal transition （EMT） is a major driver of lung cancer progression and metastasis. EMT is characterized by the loss of apical-basal polarity and intercellular adhesion in highly differentiated， polarized， and organized epithelial cells， which acquire motility， migratory potential， and invasive properties. During this process， cells undergo cytoskeletal remodeling and transform into a mesenchymal phenotype， accompanied by associated changes in cellular markers. The EMT process is highly complex and is tightly regulated by intricate networks involving multiple transcription factors， post-translational controls， epigenetic modifications， and non-coding RNAs. Therefore， therapies targeting the mechanisms of malignant transformation and their associated pathways in lung cancer are of significant clinical importance. In recent years， EMT has attracted increasing attention as a potential target for cancer therapy. Chinese medicine， with its characteristics of multi-target action， low side effects， and good therapeutic efficacy， has demonstrated an important role in anticancer treatment. A series of studies have investigated the role of Chinese medicine in inhibiting EMT in lung cancer. Active ingredients of Chinese medicine， including flavonoids， glycosides， phenols， terpenoids， saccharides， and alkaloids， as well as Chinese medicine compound formulas， have shown significant regulatory effects on EMT. Their mechanisms mainly involve multiple pathways， targets， and links， including signaling pathways， exosomes， microRNAs （miRNAs）， and the tumor-associated immune microenvironment. This article summarizes the mechanisms by which EMT promotes malignant tumor progression and reviews the current research on how Chinese medicine active ingredients， monomers， and compound formulas inhibit EMT and suppress lung cancer cell migration and invasion. This study is expected to provide comprehensive theoretical information for basic and translational research on lung cancer.

Objective: To present the plotting of trend analysis charts and the application of multi-rule trend analysis method for monitoring the quality of whole blood, washed red blood cells, and leukocyte-depleted suspended red blood cells. Methods: Samples of whole blood, washed red blood cells, and leukocyte-depleted suspended red blood cells were collected in accordance with relevant protocols and requirements. The results of blood quality testing were compiled. The trend line charts were plotted for the deviation rates of volume, hemoglobin (Hb) content, supernatant protein content, and leukocyte residual count. In addition, the trend line chart were plotted for hematocrit and post-storage hemolysis rate. Results: The trend analysis rules for the deviation rate of volume from the standard were: 1 categorized as out-of-control, (3 of 4) as warning, R as warning, 8 as alert, and 12 as alert. For Hb content deviation rate, the rules were: <0% categorized as out-of-control; <20% but ≥0% (for whole blood) or <10% but ≥0% (for washed red blood cells and leukocyte-depleted suspended red blood cells) as a warning. For supernatant protein content deviation rate, the rules were: ≥0.0% as out-of-control, and >-10% but <0.0% as a warning. For hematocrit, the rules were: 1 as out-of-control and (3 of 4) as warning. For leukocyte residual count deviation rate, the rules were: >0.0% as out-of-control, and >-10% but ≤0.0% as a warning. For post-storage hemolysis rate, the rule was: ≥0.8% out-of-control. Conclusion: The application of multi-rule trend analysis facilitates the timely identification of trend abnormalities and factors causing deviations in the collection and preparation processes of whole blood, washed red blood cells, and leukocyte-depleted suspended red blood cells, thereby providing reliable numerical evidence for their correction and adjustment.

BackgroundNon-suicidal self-injury （NSSI） has become a public health concern of wide interest. Adolescents with depressive disorder are at high risk of NSSI behaviors. Previous studies have mostly focused on analyzing factors associated with NSSI behaviors， while research on developing visual models that are intuitive， quantifiable， and suitable for rapid clinical assessment is relatively limited. ObjectiveTo investigate the risk factors for NSSI behaviors in adolescents with depressive disorder， and to construct a nomogram prediction model for the risk of NSSI behaviors occurrence， so as to provide a quantitative tool for clinical rapid assessment of the occurrence risk of NSSI behaviors in this population. MethodsA cross-sectional study was conducted. A total of 448 adolescent patients diagnosed with depressive disorder who attended the Mental Health Department of The Second Hospital， Lanzhou University from February to December 2025 and met the diagnostic criteria for depressive disorder as specified in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders， fifth edition （DSM-5） were enrolled. All participants were randomly divided into the modeling group （n=313） and the validation group （n=135） at a ratio of 7∶3. Assessments were performed using the Self-rating Depression Scale （SDS）， the Self-rating Anxiety Scale （SAS）， the Barratt Impulsiveness Scale-11 （BIS-11）， the Childhood Trauma Questionnaire-short form （CTQ-SF）， and the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index （PSQI）. Binary Logistic regression analysis was applied to screen independent predictors of NSSI behaviors in the modeling group， and a nomogram was constructed accordingly. The receiver operating characteristic （ROC） curve， calibration curve， and decision curve analysis （DCA） were used to evaluate the discrimination， calibration and clinical utility of the model， respectively. ResultsBinary Logistic regression analysis revealed that younger age， female sex， higher SDS score， higher BIS-11 score， higher CTQ-SF score， and higher PSQI score were risk factors for NSSI behaviors in adolescent patients with depressive disorder （OR=0.816， 2.671， 1.131， 1.030， 1.064， 1.102， P<0.05 or 0.01）. The Hosmer-Lemeshow test of the nomogram prediction model constructed based on these six indicators showed a good fit （χ²=15.144， P=0.056）. Model validation showed that the AUC was 0.895 for the modeling group and 0.891 for the validation group. The calibration curves suggested that the mean absolute errors between the actual values and the predicted values were 0.043 and 0.023， respectively. Decision curve analysis indicated that the model provided a clear net clinical benefit when the risk threshold was greater than 0.11. ConclusionThe nomogram model based on six indicators （age， sex， depressive symptom severity， impulsivity， childhood trauma， and sleep quality） for predicting NSSI risk in adolescent patients with depressive disorder exhibits good discrimination， calibration， and clinical application value. ［Funded by National Natural Science Foundation of China （number， 82560281）； Gansu Provincial Science and Technology Program （number， 25JRRA618）； Gansu Provincial Health Industry Research Project （number， GSWSKY2025-13）； The College Students' Innovation and Entrepreneurship Training Program of the Second Clinical Medical College of Lanzhou University （number， 20250050060）］

Fetal sacrococcygeal teratoma（SCT）is a rare condition，but the prognosis of fetuses diagnosed with SCT prenatally is generally poor，with a mortality rate of 13% to 50%. The primary causes of death include fetal hydrops and high?output heart failure，while other causes include tumor rupture，hemorrhage，preterm labor，dystocia，or malignant teratoma invasion of surrounding tissues. For large tumors，especially those with rich blood supply or rapid growth，intrauterine treatment should be considered to prevent arteriovenous shunting，reduce tumor size，and reverse fetal heart failure and hydrops. This approach aims to allow the fetus to grow safely to a viable gestational age，after which the tumor can be completely removed by secondary surgery following cesarean delivery or natural childbirth. Currently，there are five main intrauterine treatment strategies：①Ultrasound?guided cystic teratoma aspiration：single or multiple aspirations，intrauterine continuous drainage，or prenatal aspiration；②Ultrasound?guided alcohol sclerotherapy；③Open fetal surgery；④Laser ablation：fetoscopic?guided ablation of feeding vessels of the teratoma，or ultrasound?guided laser ablation；⑤ Ultrasound?guided radiofrequency ablation（RFA）.According to the literature，the latter two minimally invasive intrauterine treatment methods show better outcomes for teratomas containing solid components and are gradually becoming the mainstream treatment options.

Objective:To investigate the association between serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH)D] levels and 24-h urinary calcium excretion (24-h UCaE) and hypercalciuria in Chinese adults.Methods:This cross-sectional study was conducted from March 2022 to March 2023 in nine cities in China and included 1 239 residents. Demographic characteristics were collected through questionnaires and physical examinations, fasting blood samples were assessed for bone metabolism indicators, and 24-h urine samples were used to determine the 24-h UCaE. Multiple linear regression analysis was used to explore the relationship between serum 25(OH)D and 24-h UCaE and bone metabolism indexes. The relationship between serum 25(OH)D and hypercalciuria was analyzed using a multiple logistic regression model combined with restricted cubic spline modeling.Results:The mean participant age was (47.9±18.1) years, of which 453 (36.6%) were male. The percentages of vitamin D sufficiency, insufficiency, and deficiency were 7.6% (94/1 239), 29.0% (359/1 239), and 63.4% (786/1 239), respectively. The multiple linear regression model showed that after adjusting for the covariates the 24-h UCaE gradually increased with higher levels of 25(OH)D ( P overall <0.001, P nonlinear <0.001). The logistic regression analysis revealed that compared with the vitamin D deficient group, the OR for the prevalence of hypercalciuria in the vitamin D sufficient and vitamin D insufficient groups were 3.290 (95% CI 1.745 to 6.202) and 3.742 (95% CI 2.458 to 5.697), respectively. The results of the restricted cubic spline modeling showed a positive nonlinear relationship between 25(OH)D and the prevalence of hypercalciuria ( P overall <0.001, P nonlinear <0.001). The prevalence of hypercalciuria increased when 25(OH)D was >17.00 μg/L and peaked at 26.71 μg/L, after which there was a decreasing trend in the prevalence of hypercalciuria with increasing 25(OH)D. Conclusion:Associations between serum 25(OH)D levels and urinary calcium excretion and the prevalence of hypercalciuria were observed in the Chinese adult population.

Objective:To explore the effects of early electroacupuncture(EA)intervention on the high mobility group box 1(HMGB1)/Toll-like receptor 4(TLR4)signaling pathway-related protein expression and oligodendrocytes in mice with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis(ALS),and uncover the potential molecular mechanisms underlying the improvement of motor function in ALS mice by early EA intervention.Methods:ALS mice carrying the SOD1G93A gene were randomly divided into a model group and an EA group,with 10 mice in each group;10 littermate mice with a negative SOD1G93A genotype served as the control group.In the EA group,Baihui(GV20),Tianzhu(BL10),and Tianshu(ST25)were selected with needles retained for 10 min,5 consecutive days per week,with 2 days of rest.One week constituted a course of treatment,and a total of 3 consecutive courses were performed.The other groups were grasped and fixed similarly,but without intervention.Motor function was assessed using the open field test(OFT)and Morris water maze(MWM).Subsequently,hematoxylin-eosin staining was used to observe neuron morphology in the M1 region of the cerebral cortex.Immunofluorescence was performed to detect the positive cell rate of TAR DNA-binding protein 43(TDP-43),and double immunofluorescence staining was used to observe the positive cell rate and cell states of ionized calcium-binding adaptor molecule 1(Iba-1)and myelin basic protein(MBP)in the M1 region of the cerebral cortex.Western blotting was used to detect the relative expression levels of TDP-43,tumor necrosis factor(TNF)-α,HMGB1,and TLR4 proteins.Results:Compared to the control group,the model group exhibited a reduced total movement distance in the OFT,and an increased escape latency,as well as fewer platform crossings in the MWM,with statistically significant differences(P<0.01).In the model group,the number of degenerated and necrotic neurons in the M1 region of the ALS mouse cerebral cortex increased,with significant nuclear shrinkage and cytoplasmic vacuolization;the percentage of TDP-43 immunofluorescence positive cells in the M1 region of the cerebral cortex increased(P<0.01),and the relative expression level of TDP-43 protein in the cerebral cortex showed a significant increase(P<0.01);the Iba-1 positive cell percentage increased,while the MBP positive cell percentage decreased(P<0.01);the relative expression levels of TNF-α,HMGB1,and TLR4 proteins increased(P<0.05).Compared to the model group,the EA group showed an increased total movement distance(P<0.01),and a reduced escape latency,and more platform crossings in the MWM,with statistically significant differences(P<0.05).In the EA group,neurons showed improvement,with reduced degeneration and necrosis,and larger,clearer nuclei;the percentage of TDP-43 immunofluorescence positive cells in the M1 region of the cerebral cortex decreased(P<0.05),and the relative expression level of TDP-43 protein also decreased(P<0.05);the percentage of Iba-1 positive cells in the M1 region of the cerebral cortex decreased,while the percentage of MBP positive cells increased(P<0.01);the relative expression levels of TNF-α,HMGB1,and TLR4 proteins decreased(P<0.05).Conclusion:EA intervention can suppress microglial activation,improve the state of oligodendrocytes,and reduce abnormal TDP-43 aggregation in the M1 region of the cerebral cortex in ALS model mice;its mechanism of action may be related to the HMGB1/TLR4 signaling pathway.

Objective To explore causal relationship between 25-hydroxyvitamin D[25(OH)D]and ankylosing spondylitis(AS).Methods Genetic data of 25(OH)D and AS were extracted from the genome-wide association study.The causal effect of 25(OH)D on AS was estimated by MR-Egger regression method,weighted median,inverse variance weighted(IVW),simple mode and weighted mode,and sensitivity analysis was conducted for verification.Results The IVW results indicated that there was a causal relationship between 25(OH)D concentration and AS(OR=0.805,95％CI:0.686-0.944,P=0.008),and the maximum likelihood ratio(OR=0.799,95％CI:0.678-0.940,P=0.007)showed consistent results.The IVW results of the reverse Mendelian randomization study showed that there was no causal relationship between the two(OR=1.019,95％CI:0.995-1.043,P=0.110).In addition,MR-Egger intercept,Cochran Q test,"leave-one-out"and MR-PRESSO analysis showed no horizontal pleipotency or heterogeneity.Conclusion There may be a genetic causal relationship between the concentration of 25(OH)D and the onset of AS.AS cannot cause changes in the concentration of 25(OH)D in the body.

Objective To explore the clinical characteristics,antimicrobial resistance,virulence and molecular epi-demiology characteristics of carbapenem-resistant hypervirulent Klebsiella pneumoniae(CR-hvKP).Methods Car-bapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae(CRKP)strains isolated from clinical specimens in a tertiary first-class teaching hospital from 2018 to 2021 were collected.ST1 1 CR-hvKP strains were screened through the detection of antimicrobial resistance genes and virulence genes as well as multilocus sequence typing(MLST).Basic clinical in-formation,antimicrobial resistance genes and virulence genes were analyzed.Twenty-three strains of ST1 1 CR-hvKP were randomly selected for virulence phenotype analysis;45 strains of CR-hvKP were randomly selected for homology analysis by pulsed-field gel electrophoresis(PFGE).Results There were a total of 124 clinically isolated strains of ST11 CR-hvKP from 2018 to 2021,mainly from the department of neurosurgery(33.87％).The major specimen source was sputum(56.45％),the average age of infected patients were(55.2±16.4)years old,and the majority were male patients(77.42％).Antimicrobial susceptibility testing results showed these strains were resis-tant to most clinically commonly used antimicrobial agents.Virulence detection showed that virulence varied among these strains,but most of them were hypervirulence strains.PFGE analysis results showed that the strains were mainly subtype A1(63.4％).Conclusion ST1 1 CR-hvKP presents multidrug resistance and hypervirulence.Clonal transmission of some strains exists in this hospital,which poses great challenges for clinical anti-infection treatment as well as prevention and control.It is necessary to strengthen the prevention and control of healthcare-associated infection.

Objective The present study was designed to explore the inhibitory effects of the ADC drug Disitamab Vedotin(RC-48)on breast cancer cells with different HER-2 expression levels by utilizing a tumor organoid culture system.Methods Within the framework of the tumor organoid culture system,the breast cancer cell lines MCF-7(characterized by low HER-2 expression,Luminal A subtype)and BT-474(exhibiting high HER-2 expression,HER-2 positive subtype)were cultured independently and in various mixed ratios.The histological characteristics,as well as the expression levels and distribution of HER-2 in MCF-7 and BT-474 organoids,were analyzed via immunohistochemistry and immunofluorescence techniques.MCF-7 and BT-474 organoids were separately treated with Vedotin(RC-48),Disitamab,and Monomethyl auristatin E(MMAE).Additionally,a drug sensitivity test of Disitamab Vedotin(RC-48)was carried out on mixed MCF-7 and BT-474 cell ratios and on patient-derived breast cancer organoids,with the assessment conducted using the 3D-Glo method.Results In the tumor organoid culture system,immunohistochemistry and immunofluorescence analyses demonstrated that HER-2 was predominantly localized in the cell membrane.Specifically,BT-474 organoids exhibited robust HER-2 expression,while MCF-7 organoids displayed relatively low expression levels.When compared with MCF-7 organoids,RC48-ADC exerted a more pronounced inhibitory effect on BT-474 organoids,with IC50 values of 109.7 μg/mL and 2.792 μg/mL,respectively.The co-culture model further confirmed the bystander effect of RC-48,revealing that the ratio of HER-2-positive to HER-2-negative cells significantly influenced drug efficacy.Additionally,treatment with RC-48 led to a reduction in HER-2 expression in breast cancer organoids with diverse HER-2 expression levels.Conclusions The tumor organoid model can accurately mirror drug sensitivity and bystander effects.Within this model,RC-48 effectively inhibited HER-2 highly-expressing breast cancer cells,augmented the killing effect through the bystander mechanism,and downregulated HER-2 expression,thereby suggesting its potential for targeting HER2-associated breast cancer.
