Clinical practice guidelines represent the best recommendations for patient care. They are developed through systematically reviewing currently available clinical evidence and weighing the relative benefits and risks of various interventions. However, clinical practice guidelines have to go through a long translation cycle from development and revision to clinical promotion and application, facing problems such as scattered distribution, high duplication rate, and low actual utilization. At present, the clinical practice guideline information platform can directly or indirectly solve the problems related to the lengthy revision cycles, decentralized dissemination and limited application of clinical practice guidelines. Therefore, this paper systematically examines different types of clinical practice guideline information platforms and investigates their corresponding challenges and emerging trends in platform design, data integration, and practical implementation, with the aim of clarifying the current status of this field and providing valuable reference for future research on clinical practice guideline information platforms.

Objective:To investigate the effects of TP53 genetic status(wild-type/mutated/null)on the drug resistance of decitabine(DAC)in myelodysplastic syndromes(MDS)and identify key resistance-associated genes.Methods:Two myeloid cell lines with distinct TP53 status(M-07e:wild-type;SKM-1:mutated;)were treated with gradient DAC concentrations(0-10 μmol/L)for 0-72 h.Cell viability was detected by CCK-8 assay.RNA-Seq transcriptomics,and methylation profiling were integrated to analyze differentially expressed genes.Results:Decitabine(DAC)treatment induced time-and dose-dependent inhibition of cell viability in CCK-8 assays,with SKM-1 cells exhibiting the highest resistance(IC50=5 μmol/L vs M-07e=0.5 μmol/L,P<0.01).Transcriptomic analysis revealed 662 upregulated and 452 downregulated genes in DAC-treated M-07e cells,while SKM-1 cells showed 515 upregulated and 73 downregulated genes.By proteomic profiling,117 upregulated and 136 downregulated proteins were identified in M-07e cells,while 91 upregulated and 46 downregulated proteins were identified in SKM-1 cells following DAC exposure.Through integrated analysis of upregulated genes and proteins expression profiles,181 candidate genes were screened out,while methylation studies identified 884 hypomethylated genes with high-sensitivity loci and CpG density.Notably,31 genes overlapped between these datasets,and functional annotation indicated these drug-resistance-associated genes are primarily involved in positive regulation of cell differentiation,negative regulation of binding processes,and negative regulation of cellular component organization.Conclusion:TP53 mutations drive DAC resistance via epigenetic reprogramming.Targeting these genes may improve outcomes in TP53-mutated MDS.

Objective:To evaluate the therapeutic value of radiotherapy in combined immunotherapy and chemotherapy as first-line treatment for patients with oligometastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on data from 195 NSCLC patients who lacked epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) or anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) mutations and were treated at the Anyang Tumor Hospital and the Fourth Hospital of Hebei Medical University from January 2019 to December 2021. These patients consisted of 166 male and 29 female cases, aged from 28 to 85 years, with an average age of (61.4 ± 9.3) years. These patients were divided into two groups, with each group receiving the radiotherapy and combined immunotherapy and chemotherapy (the radiotherapy and combination group, n = 60) and combined immunotherapy and chemotherapy only (the combination group, n = 135). Then, propensity score matching (PSM) was performed to analyze the differences in prognosis between both groups before and after PSM, as well as the short-term efficacy and adverse reactions after PSM. Results:For the 195 NSCLC patients, the median follow-up time was 31.8 months, with median overall survival (OS) and median progression-free survival (PFS) recorded at 23.8 months and 9.2 months, respectively. The radiotherapy and combination group exhibited enhanced 1-, 2-, and 3-year survival rates of 78.5%, 55.9%, and 45.1%, respectively, significantly higher than the combination group (48.3%, 35.6%, and 26.6%, respectively, χ2 = 14.65, P < 0.001). Similarly, the radiotherapy and combination group displayed 1-, 2-, and 3-year PFS rates of 51.9%, 29.5%, and 22.7%, respectively, exceeding those of the combination group (30.0%, 24.5%, and 16.9%, respectively, χ2=6.09, P=0.014). After PSM, the radiotherapy and combination group manifested an objective response rate (ORR) of 60.0% (33/55) and a disease control rate (DCR) of 89.1% (49/55), which were 16.4% (9/55) and 56.4% (31/55), respectively for the combination group. These results suggested that the radiotherapy and combination group demonstrated significantly higher ORR and DCR ( χ2 = 22.18, 14.85, P<0.001). After PSM, the radiotherapy and combination group yielded 1-, 2-, and 3-year survival rates of 70.9%, 52.3%, and 41.9%, respectively, significantly than the combination group (43.6%, 29.8%, and 27.1%, respectively, χ2=8.95, P=0.003). The radiotherapy and combination group exhibited 1-, 2-, and 3-year PFS rates of 47.3%, 27.3%, and 18.7%, respectively, significantly higher than the combination group (23.6%, 17.6%, and 15.4%, respectively, χ2 = 6.71, P = 0.010). Multivariate Cox regression analysis revealed that independent factors affecting OS included clinical stage, treatment regimen, number of immunotherapy cycles, and treatment efficacy ( HR = 1.88, 2.11, 0.23, 1.79, P < 0.05). Similarly, independent factors affecting PFS consisted of treatment regimen, number of immunotherapy cycles, and treatment efficacy ( HR = 1.62, 0.37, 3.42, P <0.05). There were no statistical differences in the incidence of grade ≥ 2 bone marrow suppression (18.2% vs. 12.7%) and grade ≥ 2 pneumonia (21.8% vs. 14.5%) between both groups ( P>0.05). Conclusions:Introducing radiotherapy into combined immunotherapy and chemotherapy as first-line treatment for oligometastatic NSCLC can optimize both local and systemic disease control and significantly improve patient prognosis without increasing treatment-related adverse reactions.

Objective:To investigate the applicability and surgical effect of direct horizontal suture in the repair of defects after the excision of eyelid nevus.Methods:The clinical data of patients with eyelid nevus who were admitted to Department of Facial and Neck Plastic Surgery, Plastic Surgery Hospital of Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences from March 2015 to March 2023 were retrospectively analyzed. After the eyelid nevus was removed, the defect was closed by horizontal suture parallel to the eyelid margin. In the preoperative simulation suture scheme, one or more horizontal lines were marked on the eyelid skin according to the scope of the nevus. The intersection points of the horizontal lines and the edges of the nevus were marked for simulated suturing. If the marked points aligned horizontally, direct suturing was applied. After 3 months of postoperative follow-up, the therapeutic effect was evaluated based on eyelid function (classified as excellent, good and poor), cosmetic effects (classified as excellent, good and poor) and patient satisfaction (classified as very satisfactory, satisfactory and dissatisfactory). At the same time, the effect of different wound length (<1 cm, 1-2 cm, >2 cm) on the therapeutic effect was also analyzed. SPSS 27.0 software was used for statistical analysis of the data. The counting data were represented by examples and percentages, and Kruskal-Wallis H test was used for comparison between groups. P<0.05 indicated that the difference was statistically significant. Results:A total of 71 patients were enrolled, including 30 males and 41 females. Aged 4 to 35 years old, with an average age of 15 years old. The lesions involved the upper eyelid in 47 cases, the lower eyelid in 14 cases, and co-involved in 10 cases. Lesion areas ranged from 0.5 cm×0.5 cm to 2.3 cm×2.0 cm. None of the lesions involved the palpebral margin and conjunctiva, and the depth did not reach the orbicularis oculi muscle. Immediately after the operation, all the patients had different degrees of eyelid deformation, and some severe patients had difficulty opening their eyes. The above symptoms were relieved within 7 days to 3 months after the operation, and eventually the eyelid movement returned to normal, leaving only mild scarring. In cases where the eyelid nevus was close to or involved the eyebrow area, eyebrow shape changed after surgery, and it gradually returned to normal after 1 month. Some patients with part of the eyebrow defect were able to improve their appearance through eyebrow tattoos, eyebrow transplatation and other methods. The eyelid function of 71 patients was excellent. The evaluation of cosmetic effect, 41 cases (58%) were excellent, and 30 cases (42%) were good. The evaluation of patient satisfaction, 56 cases (79%) were very satisfied, and 15 cases (21%) were satisfied. Statistical analysis showed that with the increase of the horizontal length of the wound, the cosmetic effect and patient satisfaction would be affected to a certain extent, but the differences were not statistically significant ( P>0.05). Conclusion:For eyelid nevus excision defects that can be closed horizontally, direct suturing method should be considered priority. This method is simple to perform, offers stable postoperative effects, and leads to high patient satisfaction.
