Pulmonary complications， the most common postoperative complications of lung cancer， not only affect the quality of life of the patients after surgery but also increase the prognostic risks of postoperative recurrence and metastasis， threatening the life safety. At present， a multidisciplinary model of diagnosis and rehabilitation with integrated traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） and Western medicine has been initially formed under the guidance of the concept of rapid rehabilitation post operation for lung cancer. However， the treatment that only aims at shortening hospital stay and reducing the incidence of postoperative complications does not pay enough attention to the postoperative functional rehabilitation of the lung and the impact of follow-up adjuvant therapy， which affects the completeness of rehabilitation. This paper classifies the typical postoperative symptoms and manifestations of lung cancer into five groups： Lung system， emotion， digestive tract， pain， and nerve. On this basis， this paper summarizes the three core pathogeneses of postoperative complications of lung cancer as failure of Qi to ascend and descend leading to insecurity of defensive exterior， vessel block leading to Qi stagnation and fluid retention， and lung Qi deficiency leading to spleen and kidney deficiency. Accordingly， this paper proposes the treatment principle of protecting healthy Qi and treating Qi with the core of descending-tonifying-ascending-dispersing Qi and puts forward three treatment methods. The first is replenishing Qi and consolidating exterior， and expelling phlegm and regulating lung. The second is replenishing Qi and promoting blood flow to resolve stasis and relieving pain. The third is replenishing Qi and tonifying lung， and invigorating spleen and tonifying kidney. Furthermore， this paper elaborates on the pathogenesis and treatment principles of four common postoperative complications： Lung infection， pleural effusion， atelectasis， and bronchopleural fistula. On the basis of Western medical treatment， the TCM treatment characteristics of treating symptoms in the acute phase and eradicating the root cause in the chronic phase should be played. While dispelling the pathogen， measures should be taken to protect the healthy Qi， including tonifying lung Qi， regulating spleen Qi， and replenishing kidney Qi. This study summarizes the pathogenesis and treatment strategy of common postoperative complications of lung cancer according to the principle of protecting healthy Qi and treating Qi， aiming to provide guidance for the future treatment of postoperative complications of lung cancer.

Objective To investigate the clinical characteristics and influencing factors of thyroid function abnormality (TFA) in patients with malignant tumors receiving programmed death-1 (PD-1) inhibitor therapy, and its correlation with PD-1 inhibitors. Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data and biochemical indicators of 669 patients with malignant tumors who received PD-1 inhibitor therapy. Of these, 561 patients maintained normal thyroid function (normal group), while 108 developed TFA (TFA group). Baseline characteristics, PD-1 inhibitor type, tumor type, and other indice were compared between the two groups. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were performed to identify related factors for TFA development. Additionally, the relationship between PD-1 inhibitors and TFA types was further analyzed within the TFA group. Results The rates of patients treated with pembrolizumab and with respiratory tumors were significantly higher in TFA group than those in the normal group (P＜0.01). Multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that treatment with pembrolizumab and with respiratory tumor increased 5.350 and 1.514 times than tislelizumab and digestive tumor for risk of TFA development, respectively (P＜0.01). Within the TFA group, hypothyroidism was the predominant type (75, 69.4%); treatment with pembrolizumab increased 2.999 times than tislelizumab for development risk of hyperthyroidism (P＝0.042). Conclusions Among patients with malignant tumors treated with PD-1 inhibitors, pembrolizumab is more frequently associated with TFA, and patients with respiratory tumors were at a higher risk of developing TFA. Clinicians should closely monitor thyroid function in patients with respiratory tumors treated with pembrolizumab.

Objective: To analyze the epidemiological characteristics and spatial-temporal clustering characteristics of pulmonary tuberculosis in Huangpu District, Shanghai Municipality from 2009 to 2023, so as to provide the evidence for formulating targeted pulmonary tuberculosis prevention and control strategies. Methods: Data of registered pulmonary tuberculosis cases in Huangpu District from 2009 to 2023, including gender, age, occupation, and pathogenetic test results, were collected from the Tuberculosis Management Information System of the China Disease Prevention and Control Information System. The registered incidence was calculated, and the trend was analyzed using the annual percent change (APC) and average annual percent change (AAPC). Spatial distribution pattern was analyzed using kernel density estimation and the average nearest neighbor methods. The temporal-spatial clustering characteristics of pulmonary tuberculosis were identified using the spatio-temporal scan analysis. Results: A total of 2 726 pulmonary tuberculosis cases were registered in Huangpu District from 2009 to 2023. The registered incidence decreased from 31.20/100 000 in 2009 to 15.06/100 000 in 2023 (AAPC=-6.156%, P<0.05). A sharp declining trend was particularly observed from 2017 to 2023 (APC=-11.355%, P<0.05). Among them, 1 239 were pathogen-positive, and the pathogen positivity rate increased from 40.80% in 2009 to 71.05% in 2023 (P<0.05). There were 1 906 male cases and 820 female cases, with a male-to-female ratio of 2.32∶1. There were 798 cases aged 45-<60 years and 981 retirees, accounting for 29.27% and 35.99%, respectively. Temporal-spatial clustering analysis revealed spatial clustering areas during both 2009-2016 and 2017-2023 (both P<0.05). The clustering area for 2009-2016 was located in the central-eastern part of Huangpu District, with the clustering time in 2012. The clustering area for 2017-2023 was in the southwestern part, with the clustering time in 2017. Conclusions The registered incidence of pulmonary tuberculosis in Huangpu District showed a downward trend from 2009 to 2023. The spatial clustering areas were identified in the central-eastern part in Huangpu District in 2012 and the southwestern part in 2017.

Vaccines are among the most effec-tive measures for preventing infectious diseases and play a crucial role in controlling the spread of these diseases.Adjuvants,serving as auxiliary com-ponents in vaccines,are indispensable in the vac-cine development process.Ideal adjuvants not only enhance the immune response,enabling the body to achieve optimal protective immunity but also play important roles in reducing the dosage of im-munogens and lowering vaccine production costs.To meet the demands of novel vaccines,many new types of adjuvants have been developed.However,there is still a lack of adjuvants that are safe,effec-tive,easy to prepare,highly pure,and suitable for a variety of vaccines in clinical settings.This article categorizes adjuvants and summarizes their mecha-nisms of action and characteristics,focusing on tra-ditional aluminum salt adjuvants and more modern lipid-based and nucleic acid-based adjuvants.The summary is based on a computer search of data-bases including PubMed,Embase,The Cochrane Li-brary,CNKI(China National Knowledge Infrastruc-ture),VIP Database,and Wanfang Database,using English search keywords such as Adjuvants,Vac-cine,Vaccine Adjuvant,aluminum salts,MF59,AS03,Toll-like receptor agonist,etc.,and corre-sponding Chinese search terms.The aim is to pro-vide references for the development and applica-tion of adjuvants.

The aim of our research was to obtain Listeria bacteriophages from food and related environments,and conduc-ted the analysis of the electron microscopic morphology,host range specificity,and biological characteristics of the purified phages.The double-layer agar method and the spot test were employed for the isolation and identification of a virulent Listeria phage named LMLPA5,with the isolated strain Listeria in-nocua Lin08 as the host.Phage morphology was observed by transmission electron microscope.The biological characteris-tics of the phage were assessed by determining their host range,optimal multiplicity of infection(MOI),one-step growth curve,and physicochemical stability.Additionally,the preservation efficacy of the phage at 4 ℃,-20 ℃,and-80 ℃ was explored.The phage LMLPA5 belongs to the family Myoviridae based on morphology,exhibiting clear and transparent plaques without halo surrounded.Strains of sever-al Listeria species and different serotypes strains of Listeria monocytogenes were susceptible to lysis by LMLPA5,indica-ting its broad-spectrum activity against Listeria monocytogenes.Optimal MOIs and single-step growth curve analyses revealed optimal MOIs of 0.1 and latent period of 10 minutes for LMLPA5,with average burst size at 95.2 PFU/cell.LMLPA5 was sensitive to high temperatures,and completely inactivated after exposure to 70 ℃ for 1 h,while the phage remained stable for over 32 hours ranging from 4 ℃ to 40 ℃.Within the pH range of 4 to 10,phage titer remained stable and completely inactiva-ted until 60 minutes of ultraviolet exposure.LMLPA5 displayed insensitivity to chloroform,confirming its non-enveloped phage morphology.The phages remained stable for over 8 months when store at 4 ℃ and-80 ℃.The biological characteristics and lysis capacity of phage LMLPA5 were elucidated in this study,which provide the basis for further application.

Objective:To assess the efficiency and safety of combining lenvatinib with DEB-TACE for the treatment of unresectable large hepatocellular carcinoma,accompanied by PVTT,in order to provide insights into its potential as a therapeutic approach.Method:Patients with hepa-tocellular carcinoma and portal vein tumor thrombus,who were diagnosed and treated at Linyi Can-cer Hospital between June 2019 and June 2021,were chosen as the subjects of this study.Patient allocation into the experimental group(23 cases)and control group(27 cases)was based on indi-vidual preferences,ensuring a random distribution of participants.The DEB-TACE treatment was administered to the control group,while the experimental group received a combination of DEB-TACE and lenvatinib.The effectiveness of lenvatinib was assessed in the immediate post-surgery period,the patients'survival was monitored,and any associated side effects were documented.Result:3 months after treatment,the objective remission rates of the experimental group and the control group were 91.31％and 66.67％,and the disease control rates were 100％and 77.78％.The difference was statistically significant(P＜0.05).3 months after treatment,the regression rates of tumor thrombus in the experimental group and the control group were 60.87％and 29.63％,the difference was statistically significant(P＜0.05).The progression free survival time of the experi-mental group and the control group was 11 months and 8 months,the difference was statistically significant(P＜0.05);The median survival time of the experimental group and the control group was 20 months and 14 months,and the difference was statistically significant(P＜0.05).The main ad-verse reactions of the experimental group were hypertension,diarrhea,hand foot syndrome,rash,fatigue,loss of appetite,etc.,all of which were less than or equal to grade 3,and could be basically relieved after symptomatic treatment.Conclusion:The combination of DEB-TACE and lenvatinib is proven to be a safe and well-tolerated treatment for unresectable large hepatocellular carcinoma with portal vein tumor thrombus.This therapy not only effectively controls tumor progression but also prolongs survival time.

Objectives:This study aims to explore the effects of pioglitazone on the attenuation of ventricular arrhythmias(VAs)induced by β1-adrenergic receptor autoantibodies(β1AAb)and its potential mechanisms. Methods:48 SD rats were uniformly randomly divided into four groups using number table:control group received vehicle injection,β1AAb group received back multi-point injection of β1AR-ECLⅡ antigen peptide with adjuvant,2 mg/(kg·time),pioglitazone group received pioglitazone gavage for 2 weeks after 8 weeks of immunization,4 mg/(kg·d),and GW9662 group received pioglitazone+GW9662 intraperitoneal injection for 2 weeks after 8 weeks of immunization,1 mg/(kg·d).Powerlab recorded electrocardiograms and blood collection every 2 weeks.Baseline and week 10 echocardiography were recorded,followed by electrophysiology,histopathology,immunohistochemical staining,and electron microscopy examination after 10 weeks. Results:Compared to control group,β1AAb group showed a higher incidence of ventricular arrhythmias,shorter ventricular effective refractory period(VERP),longer action-recovery interval(ARI),lower left ventricular ejection fraction(LVEF)and left ventricular fractional shortening(LVFS),lower positive staining area ratio of glucose transporter 1(GLUT1)and carnitine palmitoyltransferase 1a(CPT1a),all P＜0.05.Mitochondrial morphology abnormalities and network damage were also significantly observed(P＜0.05).In contrast to β1AAb group,pioglitazone group showed a reduced incidence of ventricular arrhythmias,prolonged VERP,shortened ARI,recovered LVEF and LVFS,increased the positive staining area ratio of GLUT1 and CPT1a,all P＜0.05.Improvement was observed in mitochondrial morphology abnormalities and network damage(P＜0.05).Compared to pioglitazone group,GW9662 group exhibited a higher incidence of ventricular arrhythmias,shorter VERP,and longer ARI,lower LVEF and LVFS,lower positive staining area ratio of GLUT1 and CPT1a,all P＜0.05.Mitochondrial morphology abnormalities and network damage did not recover(P＜0.05). Conclusions:Pioglitazone can reduce VAs induced by β1AAb,improve ventricular electrical conduction and activation recovery time heterogeneity,and mitigate ventricular remodeling caused by β1AAb at the tissue pathology level,accompanied by upregulation of ventricular cardiomyocyte glucose and lipid transport channel proteins and repair of damaged mitochondrial networks.

Objective:To report the results of national surveillance on the distribution and antimicrobial resistance profile of clinical Gram-positive bacteria isolates from bloodstream infections in China in 2022.Methods:The clinical isolates of Gram-positive bacteria from blood cultures in member hospitals of National Bloodstream Infection Bacterial Resistant Investigation Collaborative System（BRICS）were collected during January 2022 to December 2022. Antibiotic susceptibility tests were conducted by agar dilution or broth dilution methods recommended by Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute（CLSI）. WHONET 5.6 and SPSS 25.0 software were used to analyze the data.Results:A total of 3 163 strains of Gram-positive pathogens were collected from 51 member units，and the top five bacteria were Staphylococcus aureus（ n=1 147，36.3%），coagulase-negative Staphylococci（ n=928，29.3%）， Enterococcus faecalis（ n=369，11.7%）， Enterococcus faecium（ n=296，9.4%）and alpha-hemolyticus Streptococci（ n=192，6.1%）. The detection rates of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus（MRSA）and methicillin-resistant coagulase-negative Staphylococci（MRCNS）were 26.4%（303/1 147）and 66.7%（619/928），respectively. No glycopeptide and daptomycin-resistant Staphylococci were detected. The sensitivity rates of Staphylococcus aureus to cefpirome，rifampin，compound sulfamethoxazole，linezolid，minocycline and tigecycline were all >95.0%. Enterococcus faecium was more prevalent than Enterococcus faecalis. The resistance rates of Enterococcus faecium to vancomycin and teicoplanin were both 0.5%（2/369），and no vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus faecium was detected. The detection rate of MRSA in southern China was significantly lower than that in other regions（ χ2=14.578， P=0.002），while the detection rate of MRCNS in northern China was significantly higher than that in other regions（ χ2=15.195， P=0.002）. The detection rates of MRSA and MRCNS in provincial hospitals were higher than those in municipal hospitals（ χ2=13.519 and 12.136， P<0.001）. The detection rates of MRSA and MRCNS in economically more advanced regions（per capita GDP≥92 059 Yuan in 2022）were higher than those in economically less advanced regions（per capita GDP<92 059 Yuan）（ χ2=9.969 and 7.606， P=0.002和0.006）. Conclusions:Among the Gram-positive pathogens causing bloodstream infections in China， Staphylococci is the most common while the MRSA incidence decreases continuously with time；the detection rate of Enterococcus faecium exceeds that of Enterococcus faecalis. The overall prevalence of vancomycin-resistant Enterococci is still at a low level. The composition ratio of Gram-positive pathogens and resistant profiles varies slightly across regions of China，with the prevalence of MRSA and MRCNS being more pronounced in provincial hospitals and areas with a per capita GDP≥92 059 yuan.

Objective:To evaluate the role of sphingosine-1-phospho-1 receptor 1 (S1PR1) in remifentanil-induced hyperalgesia in rats with incisional pain and the relationship with KCNQ2/3 potassium channels in the dorsal root ganglia (DRG).Methods:Forty-eight male Sprague-Dawley rats with successful caudal vein catheterization, aged 2-3 months, weighing 260-280 g, were divided into 6 groups ( n=8 each) using a random number table method: control group (group C), S1PR1 inhibitor group (FTY720) group (group F), remifentanil group (group R), remifentanil + S1PR1 inhibitor (FTY720) group (group RF), remifentanil + incision pain group (group RI) and remifentanil + incision pain + S1PR1 inhibitor (FTY720) group (group RIF). In group C, normal saline 0.1 ml· kg -1·min -1 was intravenously infused for 60 min. In group F, FTY720 3 nmol was intrathecally injected at 10 min before normal saline injection, and 0.1 ml · kg -1·min -1 normal saline was infused into the caudal vein for 60 min. Remifentanil 1.0 μg· kg -1·min -1 was infused for 60 min through the caudal vein in group R. In RF group, FTY720 (3 nmol) was intrathecally injected, and 10 min later remifentanil 1.0 μg· kg -1·min -1 was infused via the caudal vein for 60 min. The incisional pain model was established, and remifentanil 1.0 μg· kg -1·min -1 was infused via the caudal vein for 60 min in RI group. In RIF group, FTY720 3 nmol was intrathecally injected at 10 min before remifentanil infusion, then the incisional pain model was developed, and remifentanil 1.0 μg· kg -1·min -1 was infused via the caudal vein at the same time for 60 min. The mechanical paw withdraw threshold (MWT) and thermal paw withdraw latency (TWL) were measured at 24 h before remifentanil or normal saline infusion (T 0) and 2, 6, 24 and 48 h after remifentanil or normal saline infusion (T 1-4). The rats were sacrificed after the last measurement of pain threshold, and the L 4-6 segments of the DRG were taken for determination of the expression of S1PR1, KCNQ2 and KCNQ3 protein and mRNA in the DRG by Western blot and real-time polymerase chain reaction. Results:Compared with group C, the MWT was significantly decreased, and the TWL was shortened at T 1-4, the expression of S1PR1 protein and mRNA in the DRG was up-regulated, the expression of KCNQ2 and KCNQ3 protein and mRNA in the DRG was down-regulated ( P<0.05), and no significant change was found in each parameter in R and RI groups ( P>0.05). Compared with group R, the MWT was significantly decreased, and the TWL was shortened at T 1-4, the expression of S1PR1 protein and mRNA in the DRG was up-regulated, and the expression of KCNQ2 and KCNQ3 protein and mRNA in the DRG was down-regulated in group RI, and the MWT was significantly increased, and the TWL was prolonged at T 1-4, the expression of S1PR1 protein and mRNA in the DRG was down-regulated, and the expression of KCNQ2 and KCNQ3 protein and mRNA in the DRG was up-regulated in group RF ( P<0.05). Compared with group RI, the MWT was significantly increased, and the TWL was prolonged at T 1-4, the expression of S1PR1 protein and mRNA in the DRG was down-regulated, and the expression of KCNQ2 and KCNQ3 protein and mRNA in the DRG was up-regulated in group RIF ( P<0.05). Conclusions:S1PR1 is involved in the process of remifentanil-induced hyperalgesia in rats with incisional pain, which is related to the inhibition of KCNQ2/3 potassium channel expression in the DRG.

Objectives:To compare the HbA 1c results on capillary electrophoresis (CE), cation exchange-high performance liquid chromatography (CE-HPLC), and matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS). Methods:902 normal samples without hemoglobin variants and 83 samples with hemoglobin variants were collected in 2020. The variants were divided into α-chain, β-chain, γ-chain, and δ-chain variants. The 902 samples without hemoglobin variants were measured by CE, CE-HPLC, and MALDI-TOF MS. Three methods were used for measuring α-chain, β-chain, and γ-chain compared with the liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) reference method. According to the EP9-A3 guideline, Passing-Bablok regression and concordance correlation coefficient (CCC) were performed for correlation and consistency, respectively. The imprecision was assessed by coefficient of variance (CV). The mean relative bias was calculated and compared with the lowest biological variation bias of 2.3%.Results:All three methods met the acceptance of imprecision requirements (<2%). The R 2 and CCC for the normal samples were all above 0.95 between the pairwise comparison of CE, CE-HPLC, and MALDI-TOF MS. The mean relative bias between MALDI-TOF MS and CE-HPLC was higher than the lowest biological variation bias of 2.3%. The R 2 results between CE and LC-MS/MS results of α-chain, β-chain, γ-chain variants were>0.95, and the mean relative biases for γ-chain variants exceeded the lowest biological variation bias of 2.3%. A bad correlation ( R2=0.66) for β-chain variants was shown between CE-HPLC and LC-MS/MS and the mean relative biases of all variant samples exceeded 2.3%. MALDI-TOF MS showed good correlations with LC-MS/MS for three groups, and the mean relative biases for γ-chain variants were higher than 2.3%. Conclusion:MALDI-TOF MS and CE-HPLC with CE had good comparability in the measurement of HbA 1c in normal samples, butthe three methods showed interferences from different types of Hb variants and the CE method was affected with less interference.
