Gastric cancer is a high-incidence malignancy that poses a serious threat to public health in China, ranking among the top three cancers in both incidence and mortality. The majority of patients are diagnosed at an advanced stage, resulting in limited treatment options and poor prognosis. To address key challenges in gastric cancer diagnosis and treatment, a research team led by Professor Jiafu Ji at Peking University Cancer Hospital has focused on the project "Development and Dissemination of Precision Medicine Approaches in Gastric Cancer Management". Through a series of high-quality multicenter clinical studies, the team established a set of new international standards in perioperative treatment, individua-lized drug selection, intelligent noninvasive diagnostics, and novel immunotherapy strategies. These advances have significantly improved treatment efficacy and reduced surgical trauma, achieving key technological breakthroughs in diagnosis, therapy, and mechanistic understanding, and systematically enhancing outcomes for gastric cancer patients. The project ' s findings had a broad international impact, including hosting China ' s first International Gastric Cancer Congress. Through nationwide dissemination, they have promoted the development of precision diagnosis and treatment of gastric cancer as a discipline, and led the formulation of the National Health Commission's guidelines for gastric cancer diagnosis and treatment. In recognition of its achievements, the project was awarded the First Prize of the 2024 Chinese Medical Science and Technology Award.

OBJECTIVES: To determine the pharmacological impact of hesperidin, the main component of Citri Reticulatae Pericarpium, on depressive behavior and elucidate the mechanism by which hesperidin treats depression, focusing on the gut-brain axis. METHODS: Fifty-four Sprague Dawley male rats were randomly allocated to 6 groups using a random number table, including control, model, hesperidin, probiotics, fluoxetine, and Citri Reticulatae Pericarpium groups. Except for the control group, rats in the remaining 5 groups were challenged with chronic unpredictable mild stress (CUMS) for 21 days and housed in single cages. The sucrose preference test (SPT), immobility time in the forced swim test (FST), and number in the open field test (OFT) were performed to measure the behavioral changes in the rats. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay was used to determine the levels of 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) and brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) in brain tissue, and the histopathology was performed to evaluate the changes of colon tissue, together with sequencing of the V3-V4 regions of 16S rRNA gene on feces to explore the changes of intestinal flora in the rats. RESULTS: Compared to the control group, the rats in the model group showed notable reductions in body weight, SPF, and number in OFT (P<0.01). Hesperidin was found to ameliorate depression induced by CUMS, as seen by improvements in body weight, SPT, immobility time in FST, and number in OFT (P<0.05 or P<0.01). Regarding neurotransmitters, it was found that at a dose of 50 mg/kg hesperidin treatment upregulated the levels of 5-HT and BDNF in depressed rats (P<0.05). Compared to the control group, the colon tissue of the model group exhibited greater inflammatory cell infiltration, with markedly reduced numbers of goblet cells and crypts and were significantly improved following treatment with hesperidin. Simultaneously, the administration of hesperidin demonstrated a positive impact on the gut microbiome of rats treated with CUMS, such as Shannon index increased and Simpson index decreased (P<0.01), while the abundance of Pseudomonadota and Bacteroidota increased in the hesperidin-treated group (P<0.05). CONCLUSION The mechanism responsible for the beneficial effects of hesperidin on depressive behavior in rats may be related to inhibition of the expressions of BDNF and 5-HT and preservation of the gut microbiota.

Mycophenolic acid (MPA), the active moiety of both mycophenolate mofetil (MMF) and enteric-coated mycophenolate sodium (EC-MPS), serves as a primary immunosuppressant for maintaining solid organ transplants. Therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) enhances treatment outcomes through tailored approaches. This study aimed to develop an evidence-based guideline for MPA TDM, facilitating its rational application in clinical settings. The guideline plan was drawn from the Institute of Medicine and World Health Organization (WHO) guidelines. Using the Delphi method, clinical questions and outcome indicators were generated. Systematic reviews, Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development, and Evaluation (GRADE) evidence quality evaluations, expert opinions, and patient values guided evidence-based suggestions for the guideline. External reviews further refined the recommendations. The guideline for the TDM of MPA (IPGRP-2020CN099) consists of four sections and 16 recommendations encompassing target populations, monitoring strategies, dosage regimens, and influencing factors. High-risk populations, timing of TDM, area under the curve (AUC) versus trough concentration (C₀), target concentration ranges, monitoring frequency, and analytical methods are addressed. Formulation-specific recommendations, initial dosage regimens, populations with unique considerations, pharmacokinetic-informed dosing, body weight factors, pharmacogenetics, and drug‍-‍drug interactions are covered. The evidence-based guideline offers a comprehensive recommendation for solid organ transplant recipients undergoing MPA therapy, promoting standardization of MPA TDM, and enhancing treatment efficacy and safety.

Infectious keratitis (IK) is a leading cause of blindness worldwide, primarily resulting from improper contact lens use, trauma, and a compromised immune response. The pathogenic microorganisms responsible for IK include bacteria, fungi, viruses, and Acanthamoeba. This review examines standard therapeutic agents for treating IK, including broad-spectrum empiric antibiotics for bacterial keratitis (BK), antifungals such as voriconazole and natamycin for fungal infections, and antiviral nucleoside analogues for viral keratitis (VK). Additionally, this review discusses therapeutic agents, such as polyhexamethylene biguanide (PHMB), for the treatment of Acanthamoeba keratitis (AK). The review also addresses emerging drugs and the challenges associated with their clinical application, including anti-biofilm agents that combat drug resistance and nuclear factor kappa-B (NF-κB) pathway-targeted therapies to mitigate inflammation. Furthermore, methods of Photodynamic Antimicrobial Therapy (PDAT) are explored. This review underscores the importance of integrating novel and traditional therapies to tackle drug resistance and enhance drug delivery, with the goal of advancing treatment strategies for IK.

Objective To evaluate the effectiveness of CT angiography(CTA)imaging and fluoroscopic fusion navigation techniques in left atrial appendage closure(LAAC).Methods A total of 82 patients underwent LAAC in this prospective study and were matched(1:1)according to whether they underwent image fusion or not.The fusion group(41 cases)consisted of patients who received LAAC with the support of CTA and X-ray fluoroscopy fusion technology;The non fusion group(41 cases)consisted of patients who underwent surgery using traditional surgical methods without the support of this technology.Record the intraoperative indicators,perioperative complications,and postoperative follow-up outcomes of both groups.Results The surgical time in the fusion group was significantly shorter than that in the non fusion group[(50.23±25.23)min vs.(65.71±29.15)min,P=0.012],The difference is statistically significant.Compared with the non fusion group,the fusion group significantly reduced the total radiation dose[(195.15±205.59)mGy vs.(351.08±196.54)mGy],dose area product[(22.47±20.05)Gy·cm2vs.(38.12±19.38)Gy·cm2],and X-ray fluoroscopy time[(9.03±3.58)min vs.(13.35±4.23)min].Correspondingly to the radiation dose,the amount of contrast agent used in the fusion group was also relatively reduced[(59.32±24.65)ml vs.(93.12±35.08)ml],and the differences were statistically significant(all P＜0.001).There was a significant difference in the rate of repeated interval puncture(2.44％vs.12.20％,P=0.090),but the difference was not statistically significant.Occluder implantation success rates were identical(100.00％vs.100.00％).No statistically significant differences in procedural complications were observed between the groups.Conclusions Three-dimensional CTA and fluoroscopic fusion navigation techniques are not only feasible and safe but also enhance the efficiency of LAAC procedures.

Objective To explore the effect of chrysin on intestinal flora in mice with alcoholic liver disease(ALD).Methods Mice were randomly assigned to normal control group,ALD model group,Silymarin group,chrysin low-dose group,chrysin high-dose group(25,50 mg·kg-1).The mice were fed with alcoholic liquid diet and a single dose of alcohol(5 g·kg-1)for eight weeks to establish the ALD model.After eight weeks of oral administration,each group's serum and plasma lipids and liver function indices were collected and detected using kits;then collected the liver and observed the pathological changes of the liver using HE staining;meanwhile,intestinal contents were collected and changes in mouse gut flora were analyzed by 16S rDNA sequencing.Results Compared with the ALD group,the level of aspartate transaminase(AST),alanine transaminase(ALT)and triacylglycerol(TG)of low-dose and high-dose chrysin groups were significantly reduced,and it can alleviate liver cell steatosis and inflammatory reactions caused by alcohol.16S rDNA results showed that the total number and types of intestinal flora in the ethanol group were significantly reduced,as well as a change in the dominant genus to Escherichia-Shigella and Akkermansia.Compared to the ALD model group,the Shannon index of the intestinal microbiota increased significantly in mice treated with low and high doses of chrysin.In addition,at the phylum and genus level,the abundance of the high-dose chrysin group increased significantly,resulting in an overall increase in the total number and amount of microbiota.The abundance of dominant bacterial groups,such as Oscillospirales,irmicutes,andAlloprevotella,was also significantly increased.Conclusion Chrysin may exert therapeutic effects on ALD by improving intestinal flora imbalance in ALD mice.
