Oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) is a common head and neck malignancy. Approximately 50% to 60% of patients with OSCC are diagnosed at a locally advanced stage (clinical staging III-IVa). Even with comprehensive and sequential treatment primarily based on surgery, the 5-year overall survival rate remains below 50%, and patients often suffer from postoperative functional impairments such as difficulties with speaking and swallowing. Programmed death receptor-1 (PD-1) inhibitors are increasingly used in the neoadjuvant treatment of locally advanced OSCC and have shown encouraging efficacy. However, clinical practice still faces key challenges, including the definition of indications, optimization of combination regimens, and standards for efficacy evaluation. Based on the latest research advances worldwide and the clinical experience of the expert group, this expert consensus systematically evaluates the application of PD-1 inhibitors in the neoadjuvant treatment of locally advanced OSCC, covering combination strategies, treatment cycles and surgical timing, efficacy assessment, use of biomarkers, management of special populations and immune related adverse events, principles for immunotherapy rechallenge, and function preservation strategies. After multiple rounds of panel discussion and through anonymous voting using the Delphi method, the following consensus statements have been formulated: 1) Neoadjuvant therapy with PD-1 inhibitors can be used preoperatively in patients with locally advanced OSCC. The preferred regimen is a PD-1 inhibitor combined with platinum based chemotherapy, administered for 2-3 cycles. 2) During the efficacy evaluation of neoadjuvant therapy, radiographic assessment should follow the dual criteria of Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) version 1.1 and immune RECIST (iRECIST). After surgery, systematic pathological evaluation of both the primary lesion and regional lymph nodes is required. For combination chemotherapy regimens, PD-L1 expression and combined positive score need not be used as mandatory inclusion or exclusion criteria. 3) For special populations such as the elderly (≥ 70 years), individuals with stable HIV viral load, and carriers of chronic HBV/HCV, PD-1 inhibitors may be used cautiously under the guidance of a multidisciplinary team (MDT), with close monitoring for adverse events. 4) For patients with a poor response to neoadjuvant therapy, continuation of the original treatment regimen is not recommended; the subsequent treatment plan should be adjusted promptly after MDT assessment. Organ transplant recipients and patients with active autoimmune diseases are not recommended to receive neoadjuvant PD-1 inhibitor therapy due to the high risk of immune related activation. Rechallenge is generally not advised for patients who have experienced high risk immune related adverse events such as immune mediated myocarditis, neurotoxicity, or pneumonitis. 5) For patients with a good pathological response, individualized de escalation surgery and function preservation strategies can be explored. This consensus aims to promote the standardized, safe, and precise application of neoadjuvant PD-1 inhibitor strategies in the management of locally advanced OSCC patients.

Objective To investigate the correlation between coronary heart disease(CHD)and cognitive impairment in rural populations aged 40 and above.Methods From October 2014 to March 2015,all residents aged 40 and above from two villages in Huyi District,Xi'an,were selected as study subjects.Information regarding their demographics,lifestyle habits,medical history,family history,physical examinations,and biochemical tests was collected.The participants were categorized into those with and without the history of CHD.Cognitive function was assessed using the Mini-Mental State Examination(MMSE),with scores below the cutoff(illiteracy≤17;primary school≤20;junior high school and above≤24)defined as cognitive impairment.Chi-square test was used to compare the prevalence of cognitive impairment between the CHD and non-CHD groups.Multivariate Logistic regression was employed to adjust for confounding factors in analyzing the relationship between CHD and cognitive impairment.Results A total of 1 833 subjects were included in the analysis,comprising 735 males(40.1％)and 57 individuals with CHD(3.1％).Among them,234 participants(13.3％)met the criteria for cognitive impairment.Univariate analysis showed a higher prevalence of cognitive impairment in the CHD group compared to the non-CHD group(24.6％vs.12.9％,P=0.016).Unadjusted binary Logistic regression analysis indicated a positive correlation between CHD and cognitive impairment(OR=2.199,95％CI:1.185-4.084,P=0.013).However,after adjusting for confounding factors such as gender,age,education level,hypertension,diabetes,dyslipidemia,stroke history and BMI,the association between CHD and cognitive impairment was not statistically significant(OR=1.265,95％CI:0.656-2.441,P=0.483).In the stratified analysis,among diabetic patients,CHD was significantly associated with a high risk of cognitive impairment(OR=4.191,95％CI:1.464-12.000,P=0.008).The prevalence of cognitive impairment significantly increased in patients with CHD combined with diabetes(OR=4.712,95％CI:1.651-13.449,P=0.004).Conclusion This study did not establish a direct association between CHD and cognitive impairment.However,this study suggests that the presence of CHD and diabetes mellitus is significantly associated with an increased risk of cognitive impairment.Future prospective studies with larger sample sizes should be conducted to further confirm the relationship between the two.

Body weight abnormalities, including overweight, obesity, and underweight, have become a dual public health challenge in Chinese adults: overweight and obesity lead to a variety of chronic complications, while underweight increases the risks of malnutrition, sarcopenia, and organ dysfunction. To systematically address these issues, multidisciplinary experts in endocrinology, sports science, nutrition, and psychiatry from various regions have held multiple weight management seminars. Based on the latest epidemiological data and clinical evidence, they expanded the guideline to include assessment and intervention strategies for underweight, in addition to the core content of obesity management. This guideline outlines the etiological mechanisms, evaluation methods, and multidimensional management strategies for overweight and obesity, covering key areas such as diagnosis and assessment, medical nutrition therapy, exercise prescription, pharmacological intervention, and psychological support. It is intended to provide a scientific and standardized approach to weight management across the adult population, aiming to curb the rising prevalence of obesity, mitigate complications associated with abnormal body weight, and improve nutritional status and overall quality of life.

Percutaneous renal denervation(RDN)is a minimally invasive interventional treatment for hypertension that has been used in clinics at home and abroad,primarily for patients with resistant hypertension or who cannot tolerate antihypertensive drugs.Current clinical studies have confirmed the safety and efficacy of this technique.As RDN is still in its promotional and popularization stage,the expert group has written this clinical pathway to promote the orderly implementation of this technology,standardize the operating process,and standardize diagnostic and therapeutic behaviors.The pathway describes the clinical assessment of patients in detail(including indications,contraindications,and the patient screening process),the standardized operating process for RDN(including perioperative medication,anaesthesia,ablation,and management of complications),and the postoperative follow-up plan(including follow-up content,methods,and timing).It is hoped that this will serve as a reference for physicians involved in RDN clinical work,standardize diagnostic and therapeutic behaviors,and promote the standardized,precise,and sustainable development of the RDN discipline.

Aim To compare the observation results of atomic force microscopy(AFM)and scanning electron microscopy(SEM),and to summarize the main problems and solutions of AFM in observing biological macromolecules,using the observa-tion subjects of protein samples purified by our research group.Methods The protein samples were diluted to 15 nmol·L-1 with PBS,fixed on glass slides,silicon wafers,and mica sheets,dried,and made into solid-phase observation samples.SEM sam-ples were plated with platinum before observation.The surface structures of proteins were observed using AFM and SEM,sample heights were calculated,and differences in results were com-pared.Results Protein samples with positive charges tended to shift to the right during observation due to the repulsion of the AFM probe;mica sheets could effectively eliminate the positive charge of proteins to avoid sample movement;PBS provided a stable environment for protein samples,but the crystallization of PBS salts interfered with probe operation and imaging clarity;SEM samples needed to be plated with platinum before observa-tion and could not achieve the precision of AFM.Conclusions Both AFM and SEM can directly observe protein structures in vitro,with AFM providing higher precision results;when protein sample stability permits,ultrapure water is preferred as the sol-vent carrier,and volatile liquids such as ethanol can also serve as solvent carriers.The application of AFM offers a new approach for pharmacological studies on interactions between biological macromolecules.

Objective:To investigate the predictive value of morphology,immunology,and cytogenetics for isocitrate dehydrogenase 1 and 2(IDH1/2)gene mutation in newly diagnosed acute myeloid leukemia(AML)patients.Methods:The clinical data of 186 newly diagnosed AML patients(except M3 subtype)in the First People's Hospital of Changzhou were retrospectively analyzed,and the variables associated with IDH1/2 mutation in patients were screened using LASSO regression to construct a multivariate logistic regression analysis model.The Bootstrap method was used for internal validation of the model and nomograms were used to visualize the model,and receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve was used to evaluate the predictive performance of the model.Results:A total of 60 AML patients had IDH1/2 mutation at initial diagnosis.LASSO regression screened 9 predictive variables associated with IDH1/2 mutation,including CD7,CD56,CD11b,CD15,CD64,HLA-DR,platelet count ≥ 50 × 109/L,isolated+8 and normal karyotype.The nomogram and ROC curve were plotted based on the above 9 variables.The area under the ROC curve(AUC)of the training set and the validation set were 0.871 and 0.806,respectively.Internal validation showed that the nomogram had good predictive ability.Conclusion:The prediction model based on MIC typing constructed in this study has a good predictive ability for the presence of IDH1/2 mutations in newly diagnosed AML patients and has important clinical application value when the gene mutation detection results are unavailable.

Objective:To investigate the efficacy and safety of bendamustine combined with anti-CD20 monoclonal antibody in the first-line treatment of older patients with indolent B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (B-iNHL) .Methods:The clinical data of 159 patients with B-iNHL enrolled in 16 hospitals from Jiangsu Cooperative Lymphoma Group from December 1, 2019, to April 20, 2024, were analyzed for regimen efficacy and safety. Bendamustine plus rituximab (BR) and bendamustine plus obinutuzumab (BG) were administered to 139 (87.4% ) and 20 (12.6% ) patients, respectively.Results:Among the 159 patients, 101 (63.5% ) were male and 58 (36.5% ) were female, with a median age of 69 years (range: 60–84). Efficacy could be assessed in 138 (86.8% ) patients. The efficacy assessment demonstrated that the overall response rate was 92.0% with complete and partial remissions in 75 (54.3% ) and 52 (37.7% ) cases, respectively. With a median follow-up of 24 months (range: 4–64), the progression-free survival rate was (87.5 ± 3.0) % and the overall survival rate was (83.2 ± 3.3) %. Of the 27 patients who died, 6 (22.2% ) died due to disease progression. The mean applied dose of bendamustine per cycle was 73.0 (50.8–89.7) mg/m 2 per day, administered on days 1 and 2. Adverse events of grade 3 or higher were reported in 53 (33.3% ) patients, with infection (30 cases,18.9% ) and neutropenia (24 cases, 15.1% ) demonstrating the highest incidence. Conclusion:Bendamustine combined with anti-CD20 monoclonal antibody demonstrated good efficacy and is well-tolerated in the first-line treatment of elderly patients with B-iNHL.
