OBJECTIVE To construct a preoperative medication reconciliation model assisted by a localized large language model （LLM） for gastric cancer and evaluate its clinical efficacy. METHODS A total of 249 gastric cancer patients with a history of continuous medication before admission in the Gastric Surgery Department of Jiangsu Cancer Hospital were retrospectively enrolled. Patients were divided into training set （154 cases） and validation set （95 cases） based on the order of time. Based on guidelines， drug package inserts， and other evidence， a standardized medication reconcili ation process and a structured knowledge base were constructed. DeepSeek-V3 LLM was deployed privately in the hospital， combined with retrieval-augmented generation technology， to achieve automated integration of medication information， risk screening， and generation of personalized recommendations. The quality of LLM-generated recommendations was evaluated using automatic metrics （BERT Score and ROUGE-1， 2， L） and manual scoring [seven-dimensional index （7DI） ] . Spearman correlation analysis was performed to explore the correlation between automatic scores and manual scores. Cronbach’s α coefficient was used to test the internal consistency of manual scoring results. The time consumed by manual and LLM-assisted medication reconciliation was compared across tasks of different difficulty levels （simple， moderate， and high）. RESULTS A structured knowledge base covering 8 major drug categories was finally established， covering common and high-risk preoperative medication scenarios and providing structured retrieval support for the LLM. For automatic evaluation， the precision， recall， and F1-score of BERT Score were 0.783±0.033， 0.811±0.038， and 0.796±0.028， respectively. The F1-scores of ROUGE-1， ROUGE-2 and ROUGE-L were 0.566±0.067， 0.338±0.076 and 0.468±0.082， respectively. The 7DI scores from three manual raters ranged from 32.06 to 33.45. The F1-score of automatic scoring was significantly positively correlated with the 7DI score of manual scoring （maximum coefficient of determination＝0.611， P ＜0.001）， and the internal consistency of manual scoring was good （Cronbach’s α ＝ 0.876）. In terms of efficiency， LLM-assisted medication reconciliation reduced time consumption by more than 90% compared with manual reconciliation in the simple， moderate， and high-difficulty groups （ P ＜0.001）. CONCLUSIONS The medication reconciliation model constructed based on a localized LLM and structured knowledge base shows high accuracy， consistency， and clinical applicability in complex preoperative medication scenarios for gastric cancer. It can improve the efficiency of medication reconciliation and reduce potential medication risks.

ObjectiveThis paper aims to investigate the differential mechanisms underlying the staged therapeutic effects of Qijia Rougan formula on liver fibrosis using proteomic technology. MethodsThe staged rat model of liver fibrosis was established by subcutaneous injection of carbon tetrachloride （CCl₄） and olive oil. One hundred and four SD rats were randomized into thirteen groups：a normal group，a two-week model group，a four-week model group，a six-week model group，an eight-week model group，a two-week Qijia Rougan formula group，a four-week Qijia Rougan formula group，a six-week Qijia Rougan formula group，an eight-week Qijia Rougan formula group，a two-week compound Biejia Ruangan tablet group，a four-week Compound Biejia Ruangan Tablet group，a six-week Compound Biejia Ruangan Tablet group，and an eight-week compound Biejia Ruangan tablet group. After two weeks of drug intervention，liver tissue and abdominal aortic blood samples were collected from the rats for testing. Hematoxylin-eosin （HE） staining，Masson staining，and Picro Sirius red staining were used to observe pathological damage and collagen fiber deposition in liver tissues. Immunohistochemistry （IHC） was employed to detect the contents of fibrosis markers in liver tissues. The contents of liver function indicators in the serum were measured using a fully automated biochemical analyzer，and the levels of liver fibrosis indicators in the serum were assessed by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay （ELISA）. Liver tissues from the normal group，each model group，and each Qijia Rougan formula group were subjected to label-free quantitative proteomic analysis to identify differential proteins among the groups，with key proteins validated by Western blot. Finally，bioinformatics analysis was performed on the differential proteins. Results（1） The staged rat model of liver fibrosis constructed with CCl₄ and olive oil showed pathological results at the 2^nd，4^th，6^th，and 8^th weeks of modeling that were consistent with the Metavir standards for the F1，F2，F3，and F4 stages. Compared with those in the normal control group，the protein expressions of α-smooth muscle actin （α-SMA） and Collagen Ⅰ were significantly increased in each stage （P<0.05）. The levels of liver function indicators in the serum，including alanine aminotransferase （ALT），aspartate aminotransferase （AST），alkaline phosphatase （ALP），direct bilirubin （DBIL），and total bilirubin （TBil） in each model group，were significantly elevated in each stage （P<0.01）. The levels of liver fibrosis indicators in the serum，including procollagen Ⅲ peptide （PⅢP），type Ⅳ collagen（Ⅳ-C），hyaluronic acid （HA），and laminin （LN） in each model group，were significantly increased in each stage （P<0.05，P<0.01）. This study successfully established a staged rat model of liver fibrosis. （2） Compared with the model groups at each stage，the administration groups showed a reduction in hepatocyte ballooning degeneration，a more orderly arrangement of hepatocytes，and a decrease of inflammatory cell infiltration. The blue-stained collagen fibers became significantly thinner and finer，with reduced and narrowed fibrous septa. The areas of collagen fibers and Picro Sirius red staining were reduced （P<0.05）. The positive areas of α-SMA and Collagen Ⅰ expression were significantly decreased （P<0.05）. The levels of ALT，AST，ALP，DBIL，and TBil in the rats of the model groups at each stage were significantly reduced （P<0.05，P<0.01）. The levels of PⅢP，Ⅳ-C，HA，and LN in the rats of the model groups at each stage were significantly decreased （P<0.05）. Among these，the improvements in all indicators were most significant in the F3 stage （P<0.01）.（3） The proteomic results show that a total of 165 differential proteins exhibit a callback trend when comparing the model groups at four stages with the normal group，and when comparing the Qijia Rougan formula group with the model group. Western blot analysis reveals that the levels of NAD（P）H：quinone oxidoreductase 1 （NQO1），mitogen-activated protein kinase 1 （MAPK1），arginase 1 （Arg1），and glutathione S-transferase α1 （GSTA1） were consistent with the proteomic results. Bioinformatics results reveal that 165 differentially expressed proteins are enriched in multiple signaling pathways. Notably，signaling pathways such as drug metabolism-cytochrome P450，arginine biosynthesis，and the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor （PPAR） signaling pathway were found to be closely associated with liver fibrosis，suggesting that the Qijia Rougan formula may exert its staged regulatory effects on liver fibrosis by regulating these pathways. ConclusionThe Qijia Rougan formula may achieve staged regulation of liver fibrosis by regulating drug metabolism-cytochrome P450，arginine biosynthesis，and the PPAR signaling pathway.

Intraoperative cell salvage (IOCS) has been widely applied as an important blood conservation measure in surgical operations. However, there is currently a lack of clinical practice guidelines for the implementation of IOCS in patients with malignant tumors. This report aims to provide clinicians with recommendations on the use of IOCS in patients with malignant tumors based on the review and assessment of the existed evidence. Data were derived from databases such as PubMed, Embase, the Cochrane Library and Wanfang. The guideline development team formulated recommendations based on the quality of evidence, balance of benefits and harms, patient preferences, and health economic assessments. This study constructed seven major clinical questions. The main conclusions of this guideline are as follows: 1) Compared with no perioperative allogeneic blood transfusion (NPABT), perioperative allogeneic blood transfusion (PABT) leads to a more unfavorable prognosis in cancer patients (Recommended); 2) Compared with the transfusion of allogeneic blood or no transfusion, IOCS does not lead to a more unfavorable prognosis in cancer patients (Recommended); 3) The implementation of IOCS in cancer patients is economically feasible (Recommended); 4) Leukocyte depletion filters (LDF) should be used when implementing IOCS in cancer patients (Strongly Recommended); 5) Irradiation treatment of autologous blood to be reinfused can be used when implementing IOCS in cancer patients (Recommended); 6) A careful assessment of the condition of cancer patients (meeting indications and excluding contraindications) should be conducted before implementing IOCS (Strongly Recommended); 7) Informed consent from cancer patients should be obtained when implementing IOCS, with a thorough pre-assessment of the patient's condition and the likelihood of blood loss, adherence to standardized internally audited management procedures, meeting corresponding conditions, and obtaining corresponding qualifications (Recommended). In brief, current evidence indicates that IOCS can be implemented for some malignant tumor patients who need allogeneic blood transfusion after physician full evaluation, and LDF or irradiation should be used during the implementation process.

Objective:To investigate the differences in clinical outcomes of septic children with varying serum zinc levels,and to analyze the relationship between reduced serum zinc levels and organ dysfunction as well as 28-day mortality in septic children.Methods:This study conducted a retrospective analysis of clinical data from pediatric patients diagnosed with sepsis or septic shock in the Department of critical care medicine of the children's Hospital of Soochow University between January 2017 and December 2022.Clinical characteristics,organ dysfunction,and prognosis were compared between two groups:children with low serum zinc levels and those with normal zinc levels.Results:The serum zinc level of septic children within 24 hours of admission was 9.60(5.52,13.80)μmol/L,with 50.54%(94/186)of the children exhibiting low serum zinc levels(<10.07 μmol/L).Compared to the normal serum zinc group,the low serum zinc group had a significantly lower Pediatric Critical Illness Score(PCIS)[(78.71±9.35)vs.(85.12±8.51),P=0.005]and higher 28-day mortality(46.80%vs.14.13%,P<0.001).The low serum zinc group also had a higher proportion of invasive mechanical ventilation(64.89%vs.47.82%,P=0.019),renal replacement therapy(15.59%vs.3.26%,P=0.003),and use of vasoactive drugs(56.38%vs.30.43%,P<0.001).The rate of underlying conditions in the low serum zinc group was significantly higher than that in the normal serum zinc group(57.44%vs.36.95%,P=0.005).Additionally,the low serum zinc group had a higher incidence of disseminated intravascular coagulation(DIC),respiratory failure,acute kidney injury,shock,and multiple organ dysfunction syndrome(MODS)compared to the normal serum zinc group(P<0.05).Serum zinc levels had predictive value for 28-day mortality in septic children(AUC=0.813;95%CI:0.725～0.902;P<0.001).A serum zinc level of less than 6.950 μmol/L predicted the death of septic children with a sensitivity of 0.618 and a specificity of 0.902.Conclusion:Sepsis in children is commonly associated with low serum zinc levels,especially in those with underlying conditions such as hematologic and oncologic disorders.Sepsis patients hypozincemia with a higher incidence of DIC,respiratory failure,acute kidney injury,shock,and MODS.A serum zinc level below 6.95 μmol/L serves as a significant predictor of 28-day mortality in children with severe sepsis.

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.

Hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC),which is essentially primary liver cancer,is closely related to CD8+T cell immune infiltration and immune suppression.We constructed a CD8+T cells related risk score model to pre-dict the prognosis of HCC patients and provided therapeutic guidance based on the risk score.Using integrated bulk RNA sequencing(RNA-seq)and single-cell RNA sequencing(scRNA-seq)datasets,we identified stable CD8+T cell signatures.Based on these signatures,a 3-gene risk score model,comprised of KLRB1,RGS2,and TN-FRSF1B was constructed.The risk score model was well validated through an independent external validation co-hort.We divided patients into high-risk and low-risk groups according to the risk score and compared the differ-ences in immune microenvironment between these two groups.Compared with low-risk patients,high-risk patients have higher M2-type macrophage content(P＜0.0001)and lower CD8+T cells infiltration(P＜0.0001).High-risk patients predict worse response to immunotherapy treatment than low-risk patients(P＜0.01).Drug sensitivity a-nalysis shows that PI3K-β inhibitor AZD6482 and TGFβRII inhibitor SB505124 may be suitable therapies for high-risk patients,while the IGF-1R inhibitor BMS-754807 or the novel pyrimidine-based anti-tumor metabolic drug Gemcitabine could be potential therapeutic choices for low-risk patients.Moreover,expression of these 3-gene mod-el was verified by immunohistochemistry.In summary,the establishment and validation of a CD8+T cell-derived risk model can more accurately predict the prognosis of HCC patients and guide the construction of personalized treatment plans.

Objective:To investigate the changes of nitric oxide(NO),endothelin-1(ET-1),thromboxane B2(TXB2)levels in patients with chronic heart failure(CHF)and their correlation with plasma brain natriuretic peptide(BNP).Methods:We enrolled 110 CHF patients admitted in the Second Hospital of Qinhuangdao between January and December 2022.According to the New York Heart Association(NYHA)cardiac function classification,the patients were divided into cardiac function class Ⅱ group(n=22),cardiac function class Ⅲ group(n=50),and cardiac function class Ⅳ group(n=38).Baseline data,levels of NO,ET-1,TXB2,BNP and other related laboratory indexes were compared among three groups.Pearson correlation analysis was used to analyze the association of NO,ET-1,TXB2 with plasma BNP in CHF patients.Multivariate linear regression was employed to analyze related factors of elevated BNP in CHF patients.Results:Compared with patients in class Ⅱ group and class Ⅲ group,those in class Ⅳ group had significant higher uric acid[(467.39±32.60)μmol/L vs.(367.25±22.39)μmol/L vs.(421.42±28.34)μmol/L],total bilirubin[(17.36±3.10)μmol/L vs.(10.65±1.39)μmol/L vs.(11.12±2.01)μmol/L],BNP[(897.60±50.11)ng/L vs.(381.37±31.25)ng/L vs.(527.60±47.84)ng/L],NO[(50.12±5.95)μmol/L vs.(25.36±2.14)μmol/L vs.(37.92±4.84)μmol/L],ET-1[(114.10±10.53)pg/L vs.(80.25±7.38)pg/L vs.(97.03±8.40)pg/L],TXB2[(417.98±29.35)pg/ml vs.(302.63±19.63)pg/ml vs.(381.29±26.44)pg/ml](P＜0.001 all).Compared with those in class Ⅱ group,those in class Ⅲ group had significant higher above-mentioned indexes(except total bilirubin)(P＜0.001 all).Pearson correlation analysis indicated that plasma NO,ET-1,TXB2 were positively associated with BNP(r=0.828,0.750,0.720,P＜0.001 all).Multivariate linear regression analysis indicated that uric acid,total bilirubin,plasma NO,ET-1 and TXB2 levels were independent risk factors for elevated BNP level in CHF patients(B=0.555～20.550,P＜0.05 or＜0.01),while the use of angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors(ACEI)/angiotensin Ⅱ receptor blockers(ARB)was an independent protective factor(B=-46.222,P=0.027).Conclusion:The levels of NO,ET-1,and TXB2 are closely related to the occurrence and development of CHF,and they show an increasing trend with the progression of CHF,and is closely related to BNP.
