Colorectal cancer， a leading malignant gastrointestinal tumor globally in terms of incidence and mortality， has seen a consistent annual rise in newly diagnosed cases. While conventional therapies like radiotherapy， chemotherapy， and surgery are available， problems such as lack of early diagnosis， poor prognosis， and drug resistance remain significant burdens for patients. Given the complex and diverse pathogenesis of colorectal cancer， there is an urgent clinical need for safe， effective， reliable， and multi-targeted therapeutic strategies. The Hippo signaling pathway， closely linked to mechanisms like tumorigenesis， cancer cell invasion， migration， and drug resistance， extensively participates in the occurrence and development of colorectal cancer， so targeting the signaling pathway for cancer prevention and treatment has become a crucial research direction in recent years. Traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） offers multi-faceted， multi-pathway， and multi-target advantages and becomes an important therapy for colorectal cancer by enhancing patients' immunity， improving the life quality， and prolonging survival. Studies show that the active components of TCM， including flavonoids， terpenoids， phenols， alkaloids， quinones， lignans， and saponins， as well as TCM compounds such as modified Sijunzi decoction， Jiedu Sangen decoction， Jianpi Jiedu compound， and Quyu Jiedu decoction， exhibit significant targeting effects on the Hippo signaling pathway. These TCMs can exert an anti-colorectal cancer effect through various mechanisms， such as inducing cancer cell autophagy and apoptosis， inhibiting epithelial-mesenchymal transition， reversing drug resistance of the tumor， and blocking the cancer cell cycle. This paper reviewed and analyzed Chinese and international research on the action mechanisms of TCM in regulating the Hippo signaling pathway for the prevention and treatment of colorectal cancer with a comprehensive overview presentation， aiming to provide new references and ideas for the clinical application of TCM and the development of new pharmacological agents in the prevention and treatment of colorectal cancer.

Colorectal cancer is a common malignant tumor of the digestive system. In recent years， its incidence rate and mortality are increasing year by year. Due to the complex pathogenesis and poor prognosis of patients， colorectal cancer poses a serious threat to human physical and mental health. Currently， although Western medicine treatment methods can to some extent inhibit tumor growth and alleviate patient symptoms， postoperative recurrence， metastasis， multiple adverse reactions， and susceptibility to drug resistance are prominent issues， resulting in unsatisfactory overall treatment outcomes. Therefore， exploring more efficient and safe treatment methods has become an urgent task. The adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase （AMPK） signaling pathway plays a regulatory role in the growth， differentiation， apoptosis， and autophagy of colorectal cancer cells， and is widely involved in the occurrence and development of colorectal cancer. It is considered an important target for colorectal cancer treatment. Traditional Chinese medicine has unique advantages in the treatment of colorectal cancer， as it can exert its effects through multiple mechanisms and pathways. It can prevent postoperative recurrence and metastasis， reduce adverse reactions to radiotherapy and chemotherapy， and improve patients' quality of life. It has become a key means of treating colorectal cancer. Research has shown that active ingredients in traditional Chinese medicine such as flavonoids， polyphenols， terpenes， and esters， as well as traditional Chinese medicine compounds such as Qingjie Fuzheng Granules and some traditional Chinese medicine extracts， have significant regulatory effects on AMPK and its interaction signaling pathways. They exert their anti-colorectal cancer effects by inducing autophagy and apoptosis in colorectal cancer cells， promoting ferroptosis， inhibiting epithelial-mesenchymal transition， reversing drug resistance， and arresting the cell cycle. This article reviewed and summarized the relevant research on traditional Chinese medicine in the treatment of colorectal cancer in recent years， with a focus on the mechanism of traditional Chinese medicine in regulating the AMPK signaling pathway for the treatment of colorectal cancer. It is expected to provide ideas and references for the development of new drugs for clinical anti-colorectal cancer treatment.

Enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) is a series of perioperative optimization measures based on evidence-based medicine aimed at achieving rapid recovery. Existing studies have shown that ERAS can effectively reduce surgical stress, decrease the incidence of complications, shorten hospital stays, save medical costs, and improve patient satisfaction. Although lung transplantation techniques have become increasingly mature, lung transplant recipients still have a high incidence of complications during perioperative period. To further improve the perioperative survival rate of lung transplant recipients, introducing ERAS concept into the perioperative management strategy of lung transplantation is of great significance for reducing incidence of perioperative complications, promoting rapid recovery and long-term survival of lung transplant recipients. This article discusses the advances in application of ERAS concept in the perioperative management of lung transplantation, aiming to provide references for optimizing the perioperative management of lung transplant recipients and reducing perioperative complications.

Objective To explore the correlation between the systemic immune-inflammation index(SII)and the clinical and pathological characteristics of patients with IgA nephropathy(IgAN).Methods A total of 350 patients who underwent renal biopsy and were initially diagnosed with primary IgAN were selected.The clinical and pathological data of the patients were collected,and SII was calculated.According to the median SII level of 554.78 in peripheral blood,the IgAN patients were divided into the low SII group(SII≤554.78,175 cases)and the high SII group(SII>554.78,175 cases).Based on the presence or absence of endocapillary hyperplastic(E)lesion,350 patients were also divided into the E0 group(279 cases,79.7%)and the E1 group(71 cases,20.3%).Multivariate Logistic regression analysis was conducted to determine the influencing factors of E1 in IgAN patients.A predictive model was established,and the predictive value of the model was evaluated using the receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve.Results There were higher systolic blood pressure(SBP),platelet count(PLT),neutrophil count(NEU),neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio(NLR),platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio(PLR),total cholesterol(TC),serum creatinine(Scr),serum C3 and 24-hour urine protein levels in the high SII group than those of the low SII group,while the lymphocyte count(LYM)was lower(P＜0.05).In terms of pathological manifestations,the proportion of E1 was higher in the high SII group than that of the low SII group(P＜0.05).There were lower PLT,NEU,NLR,PLR,Scr and 24-hour urine protein in patients of the E0 group than those of the E1 group,while higher Hb,LYM and ALB levels in the E0 group than those of the E1 group(P＜0.05).Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that elevated SII,Scr and 24-hour urine protein levels were independent risk factors for E1 lesion in IgAN patients(P＜0.05).The area under the curve(AUC)of the predictive model for E1 lesion in IgAN patients was 0.781(95%CI:0.722-0.840).Conclusion SII can reflect the clinical and pathological severity in IgAN patients,providing new insights for clinical evaluation of the disease progression in IgAN patients.

Objective To compare the clinical evaluative value of ultrasound and X-ray in the healing of clavicle fractures in children.Methods A total of 52 pediatric patients with closed complete clavicle fractures were selected.Dynamic monitoring was conducted three times using both ultrasound and X-ray examination after the fracture was confirmed.Ultrasound examination was performed after each X-ray examination.Ultrasound was used to conduct multi-sectional exploration and record the fracture conditions(such as angulation and displacement of the fracture ends),and surrounding soft tissue injuries(such as muscle soft tissue tears or swelling,and hematoma formation).The time of first callus appearance,and the morphology of the callus(including primarily the length,thickness and echo changes of the callus)were recorded and compared with X-ray findings.Results Fifty-two cases(100％)with X-ray plain film showed interruption of the cortical bone continuity,50 cases(96.2％)with ultrasound images showed interrupted and discontinuous of the cortical bone echo,while 2 cases(3.8％)were not definitively diagnosed as fractures.On the 7th day after the fracture,ultrasound detected callus formation in 10 patients(19.2％),while X-ray detected callus formation in 3 patients(5.8％),with a statistically significant difference(P＜0.05).On the 14th day after the fracture,ultrasound detected callus formation in 35 patients(67.3％),while X-ray detected callus formation in 25 patients(48.1％),with a statistically significant difference(P＜0.05).On the 3 5 th day after the fracture,ultrasound detected callus formation in 45 patients(86.5％),and X-ray detected callus formation in 47 patients(90.4％),with no statistically significant difference(P＞0.05).There was no statistically significant difference between ultrasound and X-ray in measuring the length and thickness of the callus(P＞0.05).Conclusion Musculoskeletal ultrasound examination can be used as a potential auxiliary method to evaluate fracture healing in children.

Background and Purpose:Previous studies have investigated the prognostic significance of skeletal muscle and adipose tissue composition and distribution in colorectal cancer patients,yet most have not differentiated between rectal and colon cancer patient cohorts.This study aimed to explore the relationship between body composition and long-term prognosis,and to develop a postoperative predictive model.Methods:Clinical data of rectal cancer patients who underwent surgical treatment at Qingdao University Affiliated Hospital from January 2018 to December 2021 were retrospectively collected.Inclusion criteria:①Age＞18 years;② Preoperative colonoscopy and pathological diagnosis of colorectal cancer;③ Complete surgical resection;④Abdominal computed tomography(CT)scan 1 month before surgery.Exclusion criteria:① Clinical data is missing;② Multiple metastases of tumors;③ Tumor T stage 0 or carcinoma in situ;④ Severe artifacts lead to poor quality CT imaging,making it difficult to distinguish between fat and muscle;⑤ Inability to obtain follow-up results.This study has been approved by the Medical Ethics Committee of the Affiliated Hospital of Qingdao University(approval number:QYFYWZLL30313),and informed consent has been waived in the ethical approval process.The skeletal muscle index(SMI)and subcutaneous adipose tissue index(SATI)were calculated by dividing the areas of skeletal muscle and subcutaneous fat observed on CT scans by the square of the patient's height.Univariate and multivariate COX regression analyses were conducted to identify risk factors influencing recurrence-free survival(RFS)and overall survival(OS)in rectal cancer patients.Based on the results of the multivariate analysis,a nomogram prediction model was developed,its predictive power and accuracy were assessed using the receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve,calibration plots and decision curve analysis(DCA),and internal validation was conducted.Results:A total of 696 patients were included in this study,with 96(13.8%)patients experiencing postoperative recurrence and 89(12.8%)patients dying.Multivariate COX regression analysis showed that SMI,SATI,tumor T stage and N stage were independent factors affecting the postoperative RFS and OS of patients.Nomogram prediction models for RFS and OS in rectal cancer patients were constructed based on the above independent predictors.The area under ROC curve(AUC)for 3-,4-and 5-year RFS was 0.862,0.846 and 0.824,respectively;the AUC for 3-,4-and 5-year OS was 0.886,0.898 and 0.875,respectively.The models were evaluated using calibration curves and decision curves,and internal validation was performed,which showed that the prediction accuracy of the models was good.Conclusion:CT body composition is an independent predictor of RFS and OS in rectal cancer patients,and the nomogram model developed based on these factors demonstrates good predictive value for patient prognosis.

Objective:To explore the distant metastatic characteristics of metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer (mHSPC) and metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) based on prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) PET-CT.Methods:This is a retrospective cohort study. Ultimately, data from 227 patients with metastatic prostate cancer who underwent PSMA PET-CT examinations at Xiangya Hospital, Central South University between March 2016 and May 2025 were retrospectively reviewed, including 117 mHSPC patients with an age of (68.8±7.6) years (range:53 to 89 years) and 110 mCRPC patients with an age of (69.4±7.5) years (range: 49 to 88 years). Clinical and pathological data, along with metastatic characteristics identified via PSMA PET-CT, were collected and compared. Intergroup comparisons were performed using χ 2 tests. Results:The incidence rates of lymph node metastasis, bone metastasis, and visceral metastasis in the mHSPC group were 71.8% (84/117), 89.7% (105/117), and 11.1% (13/117), respectively, while those in the mCRPC group were 52.7% (58/110), 91.8% (101/110), and 15.5% (17/110), respectively. The incidence of lymph node metastasis in the mHSPC group was significantly higher than that in the mCRPC group ( χ2=8.800, P=0.003). Among patients with bone metastasis, the rates of osteoblastic metastasis, osteolytic metastasis, and mixed metastasis in the mHSPC group were 76.2% (80/105), 8.6% (9/105), and 15.2% (16/105), respectively, while the corresponding rates in the mCRPC group were 74.3% (75/101), 7.3% (8/101), and 16.4% (18/101), respectively, all indicating a relatively high probability of osteolytic and mixed bone metastases ( χ2=0.260, P=0.878). Among patients with mHSPC and mCRPC who tested positive for visceral metastasis, lung metastasis (9/13 and 8/17) and liver metastasis (4/13 and 9/17) were the most common sites of metastasis, but there was no significant difference in the composition of visceral metastasis between the two groups ( χ2=0.933, P=0.564). In this study, among 20 patients who progressed from mHSPC to mCRPC, 35.0% (7/20) had persistent or progressive activity at the original metastatic site, 35.0% (7/20) developed new metastatic lesions, and 30.0% (6/20) showed inhibitory changes in the original metastatic lesions. Among patients with imaging progression, 1/14 of patients with osteoblastic metastatic lesions at the mHSPC stage exhibited osteolytic changes upon progression to mCRPC. Conclusion:Compared with the mCRPC group, the mHSPC group has a higher lymph node metastasis rate,and both groups have common rates of osteolytic and mixed bone metastases and visceral metastasis.

This study addresses the issue of disability risk among elderly individuals in the context of population aging.
