OBJECTIVE To systematically evaluate the correlation between dynamic changes in inflammatory markers during treatment with epidermal growth factor receptor-tyrosine kinase inhibitors （EGFR-TKIs） in non-small cell lung cancer （NSCLC） patients and therapeutic efficacy， with the aim of providing evidence-based support for clinical prognosis assessment and treatment strategy adjustment. METHODS Databases including PubMed， Embase， Cochrane Library， CNKI， Wanfang Data， and CBM were searched from the inception to July 20， 2025. Following literature screening， data extraction and quality assessment， descriptive analysis was conducted on the outcomes of included studies. RESULTS A total of eight studies were included to analyze the correlation of 6 inflammatory markers before and after treatment with EGFR-TKIs with therapeutic efficacy. The risk of bias assessment identified six high-quality studies and two moderate-quality studies. Among these studies， seven studies demonstrated that lower levels of neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio （NLR）， derived neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio （dNLR）， platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio （PLR）， and monocyte-to-lymphocyte ratio （MLR）， higher lymphocyte-to-monocyte ratio （LMR） before treatment， as well as decreased NLR and MLR and increased LMR after treatment were associated with longer median progression-free survival. Five studies indicated that lower levels of NLR， dNLR， PLR， and interleukin-6 （IL-6）， higher LMR before treatment as well as decreased NLR and dNLR and increased LMR were associated with longer median overall survival. Three studies indicated that lower levels of IL-6 were associated with a higher objective response rate， while the association of these markers after treatment remained controversial； another study showed that an early decline in NLR， MLR， and PLR after treatment may be associated with objective response benefit. CONCLUSIONS Lower inflammatory levels during EGFR-TKIs therapy correlate with better therapeutic efficacy in NSCLC patients.

Objective: To evaluate the causal effects and population heterogeneity of Guangzhou′s Voluntary Blood Donation Privilege Certificate Policy on blood donation behavior, and to provide empirical evidence for optimizing blood management policies. Methods: Using an interrupted time series (ITS) design, we analyzed 30 quarters of blood collection data from Guangzhou Blood Center (from July 2018 to December 2025). Taking the third quarter of 2021 as the intervention node, we constructed ordinary least squares (OLS) regression models incorporating level and trend effects, and conducted stratified analyses by gender, age group, previous donation frequency, and per-donation volume. Results: The tiered incentive policy demonstrated significant heterogeneous effects. Apheresis donations showed sustained growth, with 2 units of component blood exhibiting a significant trend effect (β=304.58, P<0.001); high-frequency donors (11+ times) demonstrated sustained growth trends in apheresis donations. For whole blood, immediate effects were significant for donors with 1-2 previous donations (β=4 537.55, P<0.001) and 3-10 previous donations (β=2 159.69, P<0.05); high-frequency donors (11-30 times) showed sustained growth trends (P<0.01). Stratified by per-donation volume, 400 mL whole blood demonstrated a significant immediate effect (β=4 391.01, P<0.1), while 200 mL whole blood showed a significant declining trend (β=-893.24, P<0.01). Conclusion: The tiered incentive policy effectively enhanced blood donation participation while maintaining the donors’ altruistic motivations. Young and middle-aged adults primarily drove apheresis donations. The policy demonstrated immediate incentive effects on low-frequency whole blood donors and long-term retention effects on high-frequency donors. Per-donation volume showed an "upward migration" trend, optimizing the blood collection structure. Differentiated outreach, conversion and retention strategies are recommended to further strengthen blood supply security.

Purpose This study aims to investigate the clinicopathological features of diffuse pulmonary menin-gotheliomatosis(DPM).Methods The clinical data of 10 patients with DPM undergoing video-assisted thoracic sur-gery(VATS)were collected,and their clinical and pathological characteristics were analyzed using immunohistochem-istry.Results The detection rate of DPM was 1.19‰,with 90％of the patients being female.DPM predominantly occurred in the age range of 40-60 years,with an average age at diagnosis of 50.7 years.Most patients had no smok-ing history.Pathological diagnosis combined with imaging findings was the main method for diagnosing DPM.80％of the patients were prone to concurrent early-stage invasive pulmonary adenocarcinoma.Laboratory indicators,including pulmonary function,were generally normal.Chest CT showed diffuse multiple ground-glass opacity or cystic nodules in both lungs,with the number of nodules in both lungs ranging from dozens to hundreds,and the maximum diameter of the nodules was 2-6 mm.The median volume and CT value of the pulmonary nodules were 35.32 mm3 and-566 HU,respectively.Pathological features mainly included multiple meningothelial-like nodules observed under the micro-scope.Immunophenotypically,CD56,EMA,PR,and vimentin were often positive.Conclusion DPM is a rare lung disease with no obvious clinical symptoms,and is more common in middle-aged and elderly women.Diffuse multiple nodules in both lungs are its main imaging features.Most DPM patients are complicated with lung adenocarcinoma,and regular follow-up is recommended.

Objective To establish a high-throughput HPLC method for the simultaneous determination of 11 common antibacterial agents in acyclovir eye drops and to evaluate the quality and safety of the antibacterial agents in 42 batches of national drug inspection samples.Methods Gradient elution was performed on a Kromasil 100-5-C18(4.6 mm×250 mm,5 μm)column with acetonitrile-5 mmol·L-1 ammonium acetate aqueous solution(containing 1%triethylamine,pH adjusted to 4.5 by acetic acid)as the mobile phase.The detection wavelength was 262 nm.Results Good linear relationships were obtained for 11 antibacterial agents(r≥0.999 9).The average recovery range was 98.2%-101.8%,and the RSD was 0.7%-2.7%(n=9).As revealed by the systematic analysis of 42 batches of national drug inspection samples,some batches of samples were detected with out-of-prescription antibacterial agents 4-hydroxybenzoic acid and ethylparaben,and the results were 0.02-49 μg·mL-1.This indicated that ethylparaben degradation and colinear production pollution were the two major risk sources.Conclusions The method is accurate,sensitive,and specific and can be used for the qualitative and quantitative detection of antibacterial agents in acyclovir eye drops.Besides,some products have degradation of antibacterial agents and incomplete cleaning during co-linear production.It is still essential to further reinforce product quality control.

Objective:To investigate the application value of optimized mesenteric defect closure technique in laparoscopic-assisted right hemicolectomy.Methods:The retrospective and descriptive study was conducted. The clinicopathological data of 26 patients who underwent laparo-scopic-assisted right hemicolectomy at Changzhi People′s Hospital Affiliated to Changzhi Medical College from May 2023 to June 2024 were collected. There were 11 males and 15 females, aged (65.7±1.8)years. All patients received optimized mesenteric defect closure using a combined extra-corporeal-laparoscopic suturing technique. Observation indicators: (1) surgical and intraoperative conditions; (2) postoperative conditions; (3) follow-up. Measurement data with normal distribution were represented as Mean± SD, and measurement data with skewed distribution were represented as M( Q1, Q3) or M(range). Count data were described as absolute numbers. Results:(1) Surgical and intraoperative conditions. All 26 patients underwent laparoscopic-assisted right hemicolectomy with optimized mesenteric defect closure. The time of optimized mesenteric defect closure was 9.8(8.8,12.8)minutes, time of digestive tract reconstruction was 10.0(8.7,13.0)minutes, operation time was (164±4)minutes, volume of intraoperative blood loss was 50(50,100)mL. One of the 26 patients had intraoperative mesenteric hematoma, which required no specific intervention. The patient recovered uneventfully and was discharged from hospital. (2) Postoperative conditions. The visual analog scale pain score of 26 patients on postoperative day 1 and day 3 were 5(4,5) and 3(2,3), respectively. Time to postoperative first anal flatus and bowel movement were both 3(3, 4)days. Time to postoperative first intake of liquid diet was 2(2,3)days, duration of postoperative abdominal drainage was 4(3,5)days, and duration of postoperative hospital stay was 9(8,12)days. The number of lymph node dissected in 26 patients was 25(18,27) and the number of positive lymph node was 1(0,2). Cases in stage Ⅰ, stage Ⅱ and stage Ⅲ of tumor TNM staging were 5, 6, 15. (3) Follow-up. All 26 patients were followed up for 15(range, 6?20)months. Of the 26 patients, one case had incom-plete intestinal obstruction on postoperative day 25, which was diagnosed as adhesive intestinal obstruction based on imaging examination and classified as Clavien-Dindo grade Ⅱ. The patient recovered and was discharged after conservative treatment. None of the 26 patients had bleeding, infection of incision, anastomotic leakage, internal hernia, or delayed gastric emptying. There was no tumor recurrence, metastasis or death.Conclusion:The optimized mesenteric defect closure tech-nique in combined extracorporeal-laparoscopic suturing procedure can be used in laparoscopic-assisted right hemicolectomy.

Objective:To investigate the role of ubiquitin-specific protease 21 (USP21) in enterovirus group A type 71 (EV-A71) infection.Methods:Peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) were obtained from a cohort of 24 children infected with EV-A71 and 24 healthy children. Expression of USP21 was determined by real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR (qPCR). Additionally, the impact of USP21 overexpression or knockout on EV-A71 replication was evaluated using a combination of qPCR and western blot (WB) analysis. Furthermore, WB was employed to measure the levels of EV-A71 structural protein VP1, phosphorylated interferon regulatory factor 3 (IRF3) and other key molecules in the RIG-I-like receptor (RLR) signaling pathway. Co-immunoprecipitation (Co-IP) was utilized to investigate the effects of USP21 on the ubiquitin levels of EV-A71 nonstructural protein 2A protease (2A pro). Results:In comparison to healthy children, the expression of USP21 mRNA in PBMC of children infected with EV-A71 was notably elevated. The overexpression of USP21 significantly enhanced the cytopathic effects induced by EV-A71, upregulated levels of VP1 mRNA and protein, and facilitated EV-A71 replication, leading to a decrease in cell activity with increasing levels of USP21 transfection. Following the knockout of the USP21 gene, the VP1 mRNA levels were significantly declined in comparison to the control group. Furthermore, the overexpression of USP21 was found to have no impact on the transcriptional activity of EV-A71 2A pro. However, it was observed to enhance the expression of 2A pro protein, reduce the ubiquitination of 2A pro, suppress the protein levels of mitochondrial antiviral signaling protein (MAVS) and melanoma differentiation-associated gene 5 (MDA5), as well as decrease the phosphorylation of IRF3. Additionally, the induction of IFN-β mRNA by EV-A71 infection was downregulated. Conclusions:USP21 has been shown to enhance the replication of EV-A71 through the downregulation of 2A pro ubiquitination, suppression of MAVS and MDA5 protein expression, and inhibition of the interferon signaling pathway.

The rapid development of artificial intelligence (AI), especially generative AI (GenAI), has already brought, and will continue to bring, revolutionary changes to our daily production and life, as well as create new opportunities and challenges for diagnostic and therapeutic practices in the medical field. Haihe Hospital of Tianjin University collaborates with the National Supercomputer Center in Tianjin, Tianjin University, and other institutions to carry out research in areas such as smart healthcare, smart services, and smart management. We have conducted research and development of a full-process disease diagnosis and treatment assistance system based on GenAI in the field of smart healthcare. The development of this project is of great significance. The first goal is to upgrade and transform the hospital's information center, organically integrate it with existing information systems, and provide the necessary computing power storage support for intelligent services within the hospital. We have implemented the localized deployment of three models: Tianhe "Tianyuan", WiNGPT, and DeepSeek. The second is to create a digital avatar of the chief physician/chief physician's voice and image by integrating multimodal intelligent interaction technology. With generative intelligence as the core, this solution provides patients with a visual medical interaction solution. The third is to achieve deep adaptation between generative intelligence and the entire process of patient medical treatment. In this project, we have developed assistant tools such as intelligent inquiry, intelligent diagnosis and recognition, intelligent treatment plan generation, and intelligent assisted medical record generation to improve the safety, quality, and efficiency of the diagnosis and treatment process. This study introduces the content of a full-process disease diagnosis and treatment assistance system, aiming to provide references and insights for the digital transformation of the healthcare industry.

Objective To explore the correlation between central venous oxygen saturation(ScvO2)-re-lated indexes at different time points and the occurrence of low cardiac output syndrome(LCOS)after con-genital heart disease(CHD)correction surgery.Methods A total of 73 children who underwent CHD correc-tion surgery in this hospital from July 1st,2021 to July 1st,2024 were selected as the research subjects.The clinical data,preoperative conditions,and postoperative conditions of the children were collected.The ScvO2 and arterial lactate(Lac)levels of the children at different time points(the 1st,6th,12th,and 24th hours after surgery)were monitored,and the ScvO2/Lac at different time points and the change rate of ScvO2 in different time periods were calculated.The correlation between ScvO2-related indexes and LCOS after CHD correction surgery was analyzed.Results ScvO2 at the 6th hour after surgery,ScvO2 at the 12th hour after surgery,Sc-vO2/Lac at the 12th hour after surgery,the change rate of ScvO2 from the 1st to the 24th hour after surgery,the change rate of ScvO2 from the 6th to the 12th hour after surgery,and the change rate of ScvO2 from the 12th to the 24th hour after surgery were independent influencing factors of LCOS occurrence after CHD cor-rection surgery(P＜0.05).There was a negative correlation between ScvO2 at the 12th hour after surgery,ScvO2/Lac and LCOS occurrence after CHD correction surgery(r=-0.543,-0.523,P＜0.05).The area under the curve(AUC)of ScvO2 at the 12th hour after surgery for predicting LCOS occurrence after CHD correction surgery was 0.938(95％CI:0.865-1.000);the AUC of ScvO2/Lac at the 12th hour after surgery for predicting LCOS occurrence after CHD correction surgery was 0.922(95％CI:0.851-0.994).Conclusion ScvO2 and ScvO2/Lac at the 12th hour after surgery have good predictive potential for LCOS occurrence af-ter CHD correction surgery.

Objective:To evaluate the efficacy and safety of regional citrate anticoagulation (RCA) during plasma exchange (PE) in pediatric patients.Methods:We conducted a retrospective analysis of 12 critically ill children admitted to the Pediatric Intensive Care Unit (PICU) of Jinan Children's Hospital, who underwent 28 PE sessions with RCA between December 2023 and August 2024. Clinical records were reviewed to assess bleeding events, extracorporeal circuit performance, and changes in arterial blood gas parameters, serum total calcium (Ca tot), and activated clotting time before and after treatment. Results:No patients exhibited signs of increased bleeding. In one case, the procedure was discontinued prematurely due to elevated venous pressure. A significant decrease in ionized calcium (Ca ion) was observed 0.5 hours post-treatment. At the end of PE, pH, HCO 3?, base excess (BE), lactate, PaCO 2, Ca tot, and Na + levels increased, while K + and Ca ion levels decreased, with all changes being statistically significant. Four hours post-treatment, pH, HCO 3?, BE, PaCO 2, and Na + remained elevated, whereas Ca ion, lactate, and K + returned to baseline. By 12–15 hours post-treatment, all parameters—including pH, HCO 3?, BE, PaCO 2, Na +, K +, Ca ion, and lactate—had normalized, showing no significant differences from pre-treatment levels. Conclusions:RCA provides effective extracorporeal anticoagulation during pediatric PE without increasing bleeding risk. However, metabolic complications—primarily metabolic alkalosis—are common. These disturbances typically resolve spontaneously and do not lead to severe adverse events. While no ideal anticoagulant for PE has yet been established, RCA remains a safe and effective option, particularly for pediatric patients at higher risk of bleeding.
