OBJECTIVE To evaluate the efficacy and safety of apatinib combined with PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors in the treatment of malignant solid tumors. METHODS Randomized controlled trials （RCTs） on apatinib combined with PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors （combination group） versus monotherapy （apatinib or PD-1/PD-L1）combined with （or） chemotherapy/other treatments （control group） in the treatment of malignant solid tumors were collected from PubMed， Web of Science， Embase， Cochrane Library， CNKI， VIP， Wanfang Data and China Biomedical Literature Database. The search time limit was from the establishment of the databases to May 2025. After literature screening， data extraction and literature quality evaluation， meta-analysis was performed using RevMan 5.3 and Stata 14.0. RESULTS A total of 28 RCTs involving 2 974 patients were included. The objective response rate [RR＝1.639， 95%CI（1.452，1.851）， P＜0.000 01]， disease control rate [RR＝1.284， 95%CI（1.178，1.399）， P＜0.000 01] and CD3+， CD4+， CD4+/CD8+ as well as the incidence of ADR such as hypertension， fatigue， proteinuria， thrombocytopenia were significantly higher in the combination group than control group （P＜0.05 or P＜0.000 01）. The progressive disease rate [RR＝ 0.497， 95%CI（0.437， 0.566）， P＜0.000 01] and serum tumor + marker levels and CD8 were significantly lower in the combination group than control group （P＜0.05 or P＜0.000 01）. Subgroup analysis results of different types of tumors showed that the objective response rate and disease control rate were significantly higher in the combination group than control group （P＜0.05）. The results of sensitivity analysis showed that the stability of this study was good. The results of publication bias analysis showed that there was a high possibility of publication bias in this study. CONCLUSIONS Apatinib combined with PD-1/ PD-L1 inhibitors has a significant efficacy in the treatment of different types of tumors， but attention should be paid to the occurrence of hypertension， fatigue， proteinuria and thrombocytopenia.

Objective:To investigate the diagnostic value of umbilical cord blood lactic acid and base excess for multi-organ dysfunction following neonatal asphyxia.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of 244 patients at high risk for perinatal asphyxia who received treatment at Dongyang People's Hospital from January 2021 to December 2023.Based on the presence of organ dysfunction, the infants were divided into three groups: a single organ dysfunction group (Group A, n = 55), a multi-organ dysfunction group (Group B, n = 16), and a no organ dysfunction group (Group C, n = 173). Lactic acid levels and base excess values were compared among the three groups. Receiver operating characteristic curves were used to validate the predictive value of lactic acid and base excess values for organ dysfunction. Results:There were no statistically significant differences in general data among the three groups ( P > 0.05). In Group B, the lactic acid level was 15.10 (13.85, 16.83) mmol/L, and the base excess value was 9.80 (6.65, 15.18) mmol/L. In Group A, the lactic acid level was 7.70 (6.25, 11.70) mmol/L, and the base excess value was 5.70 (3.85, 9.60) mmol/L. In Group C, the lactic acid level was 6.80 (4.30, 9.00) mmol/L, and the base excess value was 4.00 (3.00, 6.50) mmol/L. The lactic acid level and base excess value in Group B were significantly higher than those in both Group A and Group C. Additionally, the lactic acid level and base excess value in Group A were significantly greater than those in Group C ( t = 2.60, 20.19, 2.95, 1.92, all P < 0.05). Receiver operating characteristic curve analysis revealed that the combined assessment of base excess value and lactic acid level was more effective than evaluating each parameter individually in predicting the presence of organ damage and multiple organ dysfunction syndrome. Additionally, the detection of base excess value was found to be superior to the measurement of lactic acid level. The areas under the curve values for the combined assessment of base excess value and lactic acid level for the presence of organ damage and multiple organ dysfunction syndrome were 0.694 and 0.856, respectively. In comparison, the AUC values for base excess value detection were 0.678 and 0.846, while the AUC values for lactic acid level measurement were 0.633 and 0.797, respectively. Conclusions:Umbilical cord blood lactic acid and base excess are correlated with organ dysfunction following neonatal asphyxia, and both parameters have clinical value in assessing organ damage.

Objective:The purpose of this study is to test and assess the model of modeling data of TaiChi accelerator in the Raystation Treatment Planning System(RayStation system)according to the test method and item of TG119 report of American Association Physicians Medicine(AAPM).Methods:The intensity-modulated radiation therapy(IMRT)and volumetric-modulated arc therapy(VMAT)plans of the test cases of different clinical situations,which included the simulated multi target region,prostate target region,head and neck target region,easy type C-shape target region plan and difficult type C-shape target region plan,were designed according to the AAPM TG119 report in the treatment planning system.The deviations of the doses of point and area of the two kinds of plans were measured,and the measured results were compared and analyzed with the recommended standards of AAPM TG119 report.The IBA CC13 ionization chamber and the ArcCHECK matrix ionization chamber were used respectively to verify the point dose and area dose,and the assessment standard was γ passing rate under 3%3mm.The confidence interval was adopted to judge the consistency between the measured dose and the calculated dose.Results:The accuracies of plan dose target,point dose deviation and area dose distribution of tested cases could meet the requirement of the TGl19 report.The deviations of mean doses for the high-dose points of IMRT plan and VMAT plan of tested cases were respectively(0.39±1.02)%and(1.27±0.64)%,and the confidence intervals of them were respectively 2.39%and 2.52%.The average dose deviations of low doses of organ at risk(OAR)of IMRT plan and VMAT plan were respectively(0.53±1.73)%and(0.88±1.11)%,and the confidence intervals were respectively 3.92%and 3.06%.The average γ passing rate under 3%/3mm of IMRT plan and VMAT plan were respectively(99.52±0.366)%and(99.86±0.136)%,and the confidence intervals of them were respectively 1.196%and 0.406%.Conclusion:The TaiChi accelerator performance and the accuracy of Raystation system 6MV FFF model fitting can meet the standard of TG119 report,and the subsequent standards of the quality control of equipment and patients were established according to these tested results,which would provide reference for the improvement of the performance of subsequent accelerator.

Objective:To evaluate the robustness of fully automated adaptive planning for Ethos online adaptive radiotherapy (ART) based on the intelligent optimization engine (IOE).Methods:Clinical data of 11 stage ⅠB cervical cancer patients admitted to Peking Union Medical College Hospital between June 2021 and June 2022 were retrospectively analyzed. Original planning images and iterative cone-beam computed tomography (iCBCT) images of each radiotherapy treatment were acquired, and all patient data were imported into the Ethos simulator. IOE-based 9-field automatic plan generation was performed for 11 patients using Ethos, and the generated plans were sent to online adaptive radiotherapy simulation to obtain each online adaptive radiotherapy plan (273 fractions in total) and complete the simulated treatment. For comparison, manual plan design was performed based on the images and contoured structures used for online adaptive radiotherapy planning, and the manually plans created with evenly divided 9 fields. Dosimetric parameters, plan complexity parameters, and Mobius quality assurance (QA) pass rates were collected to compare and evaluate the robustness of the online adaptive radiotherapy plan in terms of organs at risk (OAR), target volume dosimetric parameters, and plan complexity by using paired t-test or rank sum test. Results:The online adaptive plan of cervical cancer had comparable planning target volume (PTV) coverage compared to the manual plan. For the clinical target volume (CTV) D 99%, online adaptive plan was significantly higher than the manual plan [(45.93±0.36) vs. (45.32±0.31) Gy, P<0.001]. For hot dose area, the maximum point dose (PTV D max) of adaptive plan was significantly higher than the manual plan [(49.89±1.25) vs. (48.48±0.77) Gy, P<0.001], but the PTV D 1% of adaptive plan was significantly lower than the manual plan [(47.22±0.29) vs. (47.59±0.48) Gy, P<0.001]. There was no statistical difference in the conformal index ( P=0.967). And there was significant difference in the homogeneity index, with same medians and less dispersion in adaptive plan ( P<0.001). For OAR dose, bladder D mean, rectal V 40 Gy, small intestine D mean of adaptive plan was slightly higher than that of the manual plan; the rectal D mean, small intestine D 2 cm3 of the adaptive plan was slightly lower than that of manual plan; dosimetric parameters of right and left femoral heads, spinal cord and bone marrow of the adaptive plan were better than those of manual plan. The adaptive plan had more monitor units (MU) than the manual plan, but the complexity of the adaptive plan was significantly lower than that of the manual plan (0.135±0.012 vs. 0.151±0.015, P<0.001). For Mobius γ pass rate (5%/3 mm), both adaptive and manual plans met clinical requirements. Conclusion:Ethos cervical cancer online adaptive plan, which is based on the IOE engine, demonstrates good robustness and ensures the quality of online adaptive plans generated for each treatment fraction.

Objective:To evaluate the automatic optimization performance and clinical feasibility of the intelligent optimization engine (IOE) in the Ethos online adaptive radiotherapy platform.Methods:Clinical data of 11 patients with postoperative cervical cancer treated with Halcyon accelerator were retrospectively analyzed. Manual planning was performed for all patients using the 4 full arc volumetric modulated arc therapy (VMAT) (Manual-4Arc) in Eclipse, with a prescription dose of 45 Gy/25F. Patient images and structures were imported into the Ethos simulator, and appropriate clinical goals were added based on clinical requirements. The target coverage was normalized to 95%. Automatic plan generation was conducted using IOE, resulting in 7, 9, and 12 field intensity modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) plans (IMRT-7F、IMRT-9F、IMRT-12F), as well as 2 and 3 arc VMAT plans (VMAT-2Arc、VMAT-3Arc). Dosimetric index comparisons were made between the Manual-4Arc plans and the 5 groups of IOE-generated plans through one-way analysis of variance. Based on the analysis results, Turky post hoc multiple comparisons were performed to evaluate the automatic optimization performance of IOE.Results:In terms of the high dose area, the IMRT-12F plans showed the lowest D 1% for the planning target volume (PTV), and there were significant differences compared to the Manual-4Arc plans ( P=0.004). Regarding target coverage, all groups produced clinical target volume (CTV) plans that met the clinical requirements. Although the Ethos online adaptive plans were normalized during planning, the PTV coverage was slightly insufficient. For organs at risk (OAR) close to the target, such as the bladder, there were significant differences in V 30 Gy, V 40 Gy, and D mean among the 6 groups of plans. The dose ranking for the bladder was generally as follows: IMRT-12F
