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.

Objective To evaluate the safety of the 13-valent pneumococcal polysaccharide conjugate vaccine (tetanus toxoid/diphtheria toxoid) (PCV13-TT/DT) among age-eligible children in Tianjin through a combination of active and passive surveillance methods. Methods From July 15, 2023, to August 31, 2024, active surveillance for adverse events following immunization (AEFI) was conducted among recipients of PCV13-TT/DT at 18 selected vaccination clinics in Tianjin. Recipients were monitored through on-site observation or telephone follow-up within 30 minutes after vaccination and on days 1, 3, 7, and 28. Passive surveillance for AEFI was conducted among recipients of PCV13-TT/DT at other vaccination clinics across the city. The incidence of AEFI was analyzed using descriptive epidemiological methods. Results A total of 24 916 recipients of PCV13-TT/DT were observed, with 440 AEFI cases reported, resulting in an overall incidence rate of 176.59 per 10 000. The incidence rate of AEFI in active surveillance was 813.79 per 10 000, significantly higher than that in passive surveillance (20.49 per 10 000; P< 0.001). The incidence rates of general reactions, abnormal reactions, and coincidental cases in active surveillance were 744.44 per 10 000, 8.16 per 10 000, and 61.19 per 10 000, respectively, all of which were higher than those in passive surveillance (18.49 per 10 000, 0.50 per 10 000, and 1.50 per 10 000), with P values < 0.05. General reactions were mainly characterized by fever, local redness, and local induration. Abnormal reactions included angioedema and allergic rash. Coincidental cases were mainly infections. No severe adverse reactions occurred. Conclusion The large-scale vaccination of PCV13-TT/DT after its launch has good safety, and continuous strengthening of vaccine safety monitoring is needed.

Objective To analyze changes of preoperative T lymphocyte immunity and humoral immunity,and their relationship with pathological characteristics in patients with primary hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC).Methods A total of 150 patients with primary HCC underwent elective surgical treatment were enrolled as the HCC group,while 150 healthy controls during the same period were enrolled as the control group.Before surgery,the levels of peripheral blood CD3+,CD4+and CD8+were detected by flow cytometry,and CD4+/CD8+was calculated.The levels of IgA,IgG and IgM in peripheral blood were detected by immunoturbidimetry.The pathological characteristics of HCC patients were collected,and the differences of preoperative immune indexes in patients with different pathological characteristics were compared.The receiver operating curve(ROC)was used to evaluate the predictive value of immune indicators for pathological characteristics.Results The levels of CD3+,CD4+and CD4+/CD8+were lower in the HCC group than those in the control group,while levels of CD8+,IgA,IgG and IgM were higher in the HCC group than those in the control group(P＜0.05).The levels of CD3+,CD4+and CD4+/CD8+were lower in patients with lymph node metastasis than those of patients with distant lymph non-metastasis(P＜0.05).The levels of CD8+,IgA,IgG and IgM were higher in patients with lymph node metastasis than those of patients without metastasis(P＜0.05).The results of receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curves showed that area under the curve(AUC)values of CD3+,CD4+,CD8+,CD4+/CD8+,IgA,IgG,and IgM for predicting lymph node metastasis in HCC patients were 0.810,0.741,0.770,0.707,0.756,0.738 and 0.727.Conclusion There are abnormal changes of preoperative T lymphocyte immunity and humoral immunity in patients with primary HCC,which are closely related to lymph node metastasis.

Background and Aims:Body mass index(BMI),an important indicator of nutrition and health,is closely associated with postoperative complications.This study was performed to investigate the relationship between preoperative BMI and severe complications in patients undergoing liver resection for hepatolithiasis,aiming to provide preoperative guidance for clinicians,reduce the risk of postoperative complications,and ensure surgical safety and efficacy.Methods:The clinical data of 484 patients with hepatolithiasis who underwent liver resection between May 2006 and December 2022 at the First Affiliated Hospital of Army Medical University and Beijing Tsinghua Changgung Hospital were retrospectively collected.Patients were classified into low BMI group(≤18.4 kg/m2),normal BMI group(18.5-24.9 kg/m2),and high BMI group(≥25.0 kg/m2)based on preoperative BMI.Baseline characteristics,overall complications,severe complications,and other postoperative outcomes were compared between the normal BMI group and the low group as well as the high BMI group.Risk factors for severe complications after liver resection were analyzed.Results:Among the 484 patients,79(16.3％)were in the low BMI group,328(67.8％)in the normal BMI group,and 77(15.9％)in the high BMI group.The high BMI group had significantly higher ASA score,preoperative albumin level,and proportion of hypertension compared to the normal BMI group(all P＜0.05).Baseline characteristics in the low BMI group showed no significant differences compared to the normal BMI group(all P＞0.05).The incidence rates of overall complications were not significantly among the three groups(P＞0.05).However,the high BMI group had significantly higher incidence rates of severe complications(Clavien-Dindo grade Ⅲ-Ⅳ),postoperative infections,liver failure,and bile leakage compared to the normal BMI group;the low BMI group had significantly higher rates of perioperative blood transfusion,postoperative infections,liver failure,and reoperation compared to the normal BMI group(all P＜0.05).Univariate and multivariate Logistic regression analyses identified high BMI and preoperative total bilirubin ≥54 pmol/L as independent risk factors for severe complications after liver resection in patients with hepatolithiasis(both P＜0.05).Conclusion:Preoperative BMI is closely associated with the occurrence of complications after liver resection in patients with hepatolithiasis,with high BMI being an independent risk factor for severe complications.To mitigate the risk of severe complications,clinical practice should prioritize monitoring and management of individuals with high BMI and other risk factors

Chronic kidney disease(CKD)is a chronic disease characterized by renal structural damage and dysfunction.At present,there is still a lack of effective therapeutic drugs and prevention and treatment methods for CKD in clinical practice.More and more studies have shown that necroptosis,as a new type of programmed cell death,plays a vital role in the onset and progression of CKD.Targeting key molecules in the necroptosis pathway,such as RIPK1,RIPK3 and MLKL,the development of small molecule inhibitors has become an emerging strategy for the treatment of CKD,and has shown significant potential to pro-tect the kidneys and alleviate renal fibrosis in a variety of in vitro and in vivo models.Therefore,this article summarizes the re-search progress of the mechanism of necroptosis in recent years,and focuses on the potential role of necroptosis in the pathogene-sis of CKD and the therapeutic potential of targeting this path-way,providing a new perspective and research direction for the prevention and treatment of CKD in the future.

Objective To evaluate the clinical safety and efficacy of NOVA stent implantation in the treatment of symptomatic middle cerebral artery(MCA)atherosclerotic stenosis.Methods The clinical data,including surgical results,perioperative complications,imaging manifestations and follow-up findings,of 21 patients with severe MCA atherosclerotic stenosis,who received NOVA stent implantation at the Affiliated Tongji Hospital of Tongji University of China from November 2021 to February 2023,were retrospectively analyzed.Results Successful NOVA stent implantation was accomplished in all the 21 patients.The residual stenosis was less than 30％,with no bleeding complications.After stent implantation,the median stenosis ratio of responsible vessels decreased from preoperative 85.04％to postoperative 5.95％,the difference was statistically significant(P＜0.01).During the follow-up period of 10-14 months,one patient(4.76％)developed in-stent restenosis,one patient developed transient ischemic attack(TIA),and one patient developed posterior circulation cerebral infarction.No cerebral hemorrhage or death occurred.After treatment,the clinical symptoms were stable in 16 patients(76.19％),improved in 4 patients(19.04％),and worsened in one patient(4.76％).Conclusion For the treatment of patients with symptomatic MCA atherosclerotic stenosis,NOVA stent implantation is clinically safe and effective.However,multicenter randomized controlled studies with larger sample size and longer follow-up period need to be conducted before its curative efficacy can be further validated.
