It is very limited that the benefit of perioperative chemotherapy in early non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), and the 5-year survival rate is only 5% higher than surgery. Antibodies that block programmed cell death protein 1/programmed death-ligand 1 significantly improve the survival of advanced NSCLC. The value of immunotherapy in early NSCLC is also being explored. This paper firstly summarized and analyzed the progress of immunotherapy in the perioperative period of NSCLC. Secondly, the safety and feasibility of surgical resection after neoadjuvant immunotherapy were discussed. Finally, the clinical value of different therapeutic efficacy prediction indicators was summarized, in order to clarify the current status of immunotherapy in the perioperative period, so as to improve the clinical benefits of early NSCLC patients.

Objective: To evaluate the diagnostic performance of magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) in discriminating fumarate hydratase-deficient (FH-d) uterine leiomyomas (ULs) from FH-preserved ULs. Materials and Methods: This study consisted of three stages, with independent cohorts recruited for each stage: 1) sample-size estimation was retrospectively performed on UL specimens (diameter ≥3 cm; age, 20–40 years) from our database with immunohistochemistry (IHC) for 2-succinocysteine (2-SC) as the reference, without genetic testing, 2) MRS sequence optimization in confirmed FH germline mutation participants with ultrasound-detected ULs (diameter ≥3 cm), without IHC analysis, and 3) prospective diagnostic test accuracy was evaluated in consecutive participants with ultrasound-detected ULs (diameter ≥3 cm;age, 20–40 years), using IHC for 2-SC for determining the FH status and subsequent genetic testing in those with positive 2-SC results to identify whether FH mutations were germline or somatic in origin. The choline and fumarate peaks in MRS were classified as positive, negative, or technical failure (TF). TFs were analyzed separately and excluded from the primary diagnostic accuracy calculations. T1-, T2-, and diffusion-weighted images were interpreted as hyperintense or hypointense. The enhancement rate and apparent diffusion coefficient were also acquired. Diagnostic performance was compared between MRS and various magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) features. Results: The optimal MRS parameters for the fumarate peak were echo time (TE) = 140 ms and an average of 256. Among the 360 prospective participants, 37 were confirmed to have FH-dULs. MRS showed positive fumarate peaks in 35 of 37 FH-dULs.After excluding six TFs, the positive fumarate peak on MRS showed 94.6% (35/37) sensitivity, 99.7% (316/317) specificity, and 99.2% (351/354) accuracy, all of which were significantly superior to those of other MRI features (P ≤ 0.002). Conclusion A positive fumarate peak on MRS may be a useful imaging biomarker for diagnosing FH-dULs.

The application of genetic testing technologies in assisted reproduction, such as preimplantation genetic testing (PGT) and carrier screening for monogenic diseases, has provided infertile couples with more reproductive options and played a crucial role in the prevention of genetic disorders, significantly improving reproductive health. However, the widespread use of these technologies has also raised various ethical challenges, including the uncertainty of mosaic embryo transfer and its implications for reproductive rights, the cost-effectiveness debate surrounding PGT for structural rearrangement for chromosomal inversion carriers, the predictive accuracy and ethical boundaries of polygenic embryo screening, and the ethical concerns related to extensive carrier screening, such as information overload, restricted informed choice, disputes over screening scope, and disparities in healthcare access. The reproductive medicine ethics committee plays a central role in addressing these challenges by overseeing ethical reviews of technological applications, ensuring patients' informed consent, balancing technological innovation with ethical responsibility, and promoting social equity. This article explores the ethical challenges brought by the application of technologies such as PGT and carrier screening in assisted reproduction, and proposes corresponding suggestions based on ethical principles framework, in order to promote the standardized application of genetic testing technology in reproductive medicine.

"When warm evil is received,it first attacks the lungs and then spread to the pericardium reversely"is the general rule of warm diseases.Doctors of different dynasties have different views on the phrase"reverse spread to the pericardium",especially the word"reverse".Professor Tong Xiaolin proposed that the heart governs the mind,the pericardium and the heart are connected in qi,and when the heart is affected by evil,the pericardium instead suffers from the evil.The"reverse spread to the pericardium"proposed by Ye Tianshi is actually the spread of warm evil to the brain.Taking meningococcal meningitis as the basic disease,it can be matched one by one with the typical stages of the transmission of Wei-Qi-Ying-Xue.Combined with the theory of Dingjiao,it is believed that the function of"the heart governing the mind"focuses more on the brain in the modern anatomical sense.Combining traditional Chinese medicine's ideas on diagnosis and treatment of warm diseases with modern medicine,revealing the essence of the disease,grasping the core of the pathogenesis,analyzing the word"reverse"from a new perspective,and exploring its true meaning,is of great significance for clarifying its connotation,exploring the development laws of warm diseases,and guiding the diagnosis and treatment of warm disea-ses.

Objective To investigate the efficacy of intratumoral and peritumoral radiomics features besed on biparametric MRI combined with pathological parameters in predicting biochemical recurrence(BCR)after radical prostatectomy(RP).Methods A total of 295 prostate cancer(PCa)patients who underwent RP were retrospectively selected and divided into training set(n=206)and test set(n=89)in a 7∶3 ratio.Subgroups were stratified based on prostate specific antigen(PSA)results during 24-month postopera-tive follow-up.Radiomics features were extracted and integrated from both intratumoral and peritumoral 3 mm dual-regions on T2WI and apparent diffusion coefficient(ADC)sequences.Feature selection was performed using independent sample t-tests,maximum relevance and minimum redundancy(mRMR)algorithm,and least absolute shrinkage and selection operator(LASSO)regression.Binary logis-tic regression analysis was used to screen the independent pathological risk factors.Radiomics models(intratumoral,peritumoral,and combined)and a pathological model were constructed based on the Light gradient boosting machine(LightGBM)algorithm.A nomo-gram model was developed by integrating the pathological model with the combined model.The model efficacy was evaluated via the receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curves,and the DeLong's test and net reclassification improvement(NRI)were used to com-pare the efficacy differences among the models.Results Finally,the optimal feature numbers for the intratumoral,peritumoral,and combined models were 5,6,and 6,respectively.In the test set,the combined model demonstrated significantly higher area under the curve(AUC)than the intratumoral model(0.905 vs 0.815,P＜0.05).Ki-67,extracapsular extension,and positive surgical margin were identified as independent pathological predictors of BCR(P＜0.05).The nomogram model demonstrated significantly higher AUC than the pathological model(0.931 vs 0.786,P＜0.05),with no significant difference versus the combined model(0.931 vs 0.905,P＞0.05).Conclusion The nomogram model integrating intratumoral,peritumoral radiomics features with pathological parameters can effectively predict the occurrence of BCR within 2 years after PCa surgery.

Porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus(PRRSV)mainly causes sow abor-tion,stillbirth,mummified fetus and respiratory symptoms in piglets.Since first reported in China in 1996,the virus complexity has increased significantly in more than 20 years of genetic evolution,bringing huge economic losses to the pig industry.In recent years,with the emergence of various PRRSV recombinant virus strains,preventing and controlling this epidemic became increasingly difficult.The purpose of this article is to comprehensively review the genome structure and func-tion of PRRSV,RNA virus recombination mechanism,main types of recombination,and the epi-demic status and recombination for the dominant epidemic PRRSV strains,in order to provide clues for in-depth research on gene recombination of PRRSV,thus providing the theoretical sup-port for formulating scientific prevention and control strategies.
