Chronic post-surgical pain (CPSP) is a common long-term complication following lung surgery. Its high incidence significantly impacts patients’ quality of life and functional recovery, and imposes a substantial socioeconomic burden. This consensus aims to systematically establish a standardized integrated Chinese and Western medicine diagnostic and treatment framework for chronic post-lung surgery pain (CPLSP). Based on the latest domestic and international evidence-based medical research and multidisciplinary clinical experience, the working group comprehensively elaborates on core issues regarding CPLSP, including its definition, epidemiology, pathogenesis, clinical assessment, Western medical treatment, traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) treatment, and integrated strategies. The consensus emphasizes a patient-centered approach, adhering to the principles of multimodality, individualization, and stepwise management, highlighting the synergistic advantages of integrating Chinese and Western medicine throughout the entire perioperative management cycle encompassing "perioperative anti-inflammation, acute analgesia, and chronic rehabilitation." Through systematic literature retrieval and evidence integration, a total of 9 core recommendations were established to provide scientifically sound and clinically practical guidance.

In the tumor microenvironment, a bidirectional feedback regulation exists between aberrant angiogenesis and antitumor immunity, which provides a basis for the synergistic effects of antiangiogenic therapy and immunotherapy. The underlying mechanisms include relief of immunosuppression mediated by proangiogenic factors, induction of vascular normalization to reshape the immune microenvironment, and formation of a positive immune-vascular feedback loop. Based on these mechanisms, the combination of antiangiogenic therapy and immunotherapy has demonstrated synergistic efficacy in advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and is gradually being moved forward to the neoadjuvant setting. However, in the perioperative treatment of resectable lung cancer, this regimen still faces challenges, including primary resistance, a brief window of vascular normalization, and an unclear understanding of spatial interaction mechanisms. This review systematically elucidates the synergistic mechanisms of antiangiogenic agents combined with immunotherapy in NSCLC and the latest advances of this combination strategy in the neoadjuvant therapy setting, aiming to provide a reference for clinical practice.

Objective This study reports on the obligatory parasitism of water mites Arrenurus sp. on Anopheles messeae at the Manzhouli Port, Inner Mongolia, China. Methods Duing July 2024, a survey on the mosquito diversity was conducted at the Manzhouli Port. Captured mosquitoes and their ectoparasites were identified to species level. Results A total of 1840 adult mosquitoes were collected, representing species from three genera: Culex(Cx. modestus, Cx. pipiens pallens), Aedes(Ae. dorsalis, Ae. flavidorsalis, Ae. flavescens), and Anopheles (An. messeae). Among all the mosqutioes specimens,3 out of 150 captured An. messeae were found to carry ectoparasitic mites, with number of 2,4,27 mites separately. Morphological and molecular identification reached the same result as water mites(Hydrachnidiae, Hydracrina). COI gene sequence showed 94% similarity with the closest species Arrenurus truncatellus. Conlusions Literature review suggests water mites are host-specific parasitism of mosquito species and herein with the first record of Arrenurus sp. parasiting on An. Messeae in the most high-latitude region globally.

BACKGROUND:The imbalance between bone resorption and bone formation in microgravity environments leads to significant bone loss in astronauts.Current research indicates that bone loss under microgravity conditions is the result of the combined effects of various cells,tissues,and systems. OBJECTIVE:To review different biological effects of microgravity on various cells,tissues,or systems,and summarize the mechanisms by which microgravity leads to the development of osteoporosis. METHODS:Databases such as PubMed,Web of Science,and the Cochrane Database were searched for relevant literature from 2000 to 2023.The inclusion criteria were all articles related to tissue engineering studies and basic research on osteoporosis caused by microgravity.Ultimately,85 articles were included for review. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)In microgravity environment,bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells tend to differentiate more into adipocytes rather than osteoblasts,and hematopoietic stem cells in this environment are more inclined to differentiate into osteoclasts,reducing differentiation into the erythroid lineage.At the same time,microgravity inhibits the proliferation and differentiation of osteoblasts,promotes apoptosis of osteoblasts,alters cell morphology,and reduces the mineralization capacity of osteoblasts.Microgravity significantly increases the number and activity of osteoclasts.Microgravity also hinders the differentiation of osteoblasts into osteocytes and promotes the apoptosis of osteocytes.(2)In a microgravity environment,the body experiences changes such as skeletal muscle atrophy,microvascular remodeling,bone microcirculation disorders,and endocrine disruption.These changes lead to mechanical unloading in the bone microenvironment,insufficient blood perfusion,and calcium cycle disorders,which significantly impact the development of osteoporosis.(3)At present,the mechanism by which microgravity causes osteoporosis is relatively complex.A deeper study of these physiological mechanisms is crucial to ensuring the health of astronauts during long-term space missions,and provides a theoretical basis for the prevention and treatment of osteoporosis.

Background/Aims: Obesity is associated with several gastrointestinal (GI) disorders and has been identified as a potential risk factor for various GI symptoms. Bowel frequency is an important indicator of bowel function. However, the causal link between obesity and gastrointestinal motility remains uncertain. This study aims to determine the causal effect of overall and central obesity on stool frequency. Methods: Four obesity-related anthropometric indicators–body mass index, body fat percentage, waist circumference (WC), and waist-tohip ratio (WHR)–were investigated. Individual-level baseline information from the UK Biobank was used to explore observational associations between obesity and stool frequency. Additionally, summary-level data from published genome-wide association studies were subjected to two-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) analyses to examine causal associations. Results: For all 4 indicators of obesity, higher levels of obesity were associated with more frequent bowel movements after adjusting for demographic characteristics, lifestyle, and dietary factors. After rigorous screening, 482 body mass index single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), 7 body fat percentage SNPs, 48 WC SNPs, and 287 WHR SNPs were identified as instrument variables for MR analysis. The MR results were generally consistent with observational findings, proving that the associations observed in the overall obesity indicators were causal. For central obesity, the association between WHR and stool frequency remained consistent in both analysis phases, whereas WC showed a multidirectional association. Conclusions Obesity-related anthropometric indicators were causally associated with increased stool frequency in the overall and central obesity groups. Weight loss could be a potential approach to improve gastrointestinal regularity in individuals with obesity.

BACKGROUND:Cell senescence is one of the major risk factors for osteoarthritis,but there is no widely accepted anti-osteoarthritis therapy targeting senescent cells.OBJECTIVE:To develop a feasible treatment strategy targeting senescent cells in osteoarthritis.METHODS:The cationic liposome containing rapamycin,RAPA@Lipo,was prepared by thin film dispersion method.Methylallylated hyaluronic acid hydrogel was synthesized,and RAPA@Lipo was added to the methylallylated hyaluronic acid hydrogel aqueous phase solution.The hydrogel microspheres were prepared by microfluidic equipment.Solid hydrogel microspheres(RAPA@Lipo@MS)were crosslinked under violet light.Primary human chondrocytes were co-cultured with RAPA@Lipo and RAPA@Lipo@MS,respectively.The biocompatibility of the materials was evaluated by CCK-8 assay and live/dead staining.Primary rat chondrocytes were cultured in four groups.Normal control group was cultured for 48 hours.The model group was stimulated with H2O2 for 24 hours to establish senescent cell model.RAPA@Lipo group and RAPA@Lipo@MS group were cultured for 24 hours after establishing senescent cell model with RAPA@Lipo and RAPA@Lipo@MS,respectively.After culture,immunofluorescence was used to observe the expression of p62 and type Ⅱ collagen.RT-PCR was used to detect the mRNA expression of interleukin 6,matrix metalloproteinase 13,type Ⅱ collagen,aggrecan,and ADAMTS-5.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)The results of CCK-8 assay and live/dead staining showed that RAPA@Lipo and RAPA@Lipo@MS had good biocompatibility.(2)Compared with the normal control group,the protein expression of p62 was increased(P<0.05);the expression of type Ⅱ collagen was decreased(P<0.05),and the mRNA expression levels of interleukin 6,matrix metalloproteinase 13,and ADAMTS-5 were increased(P<0.05);mRNA expression levels of type Ⅱ collagen and aggrecan were decreased(P<0.05)in the model group.Compared with the model group,the expression of p62 protein was decreased(P<0.05);the expression of type Ⅱ collagen was increased(P<0.05),and the mRNA expression levels of interleukin 6,matrix metalloproteinase 13,and ADAMTS-5 were decreased(P<0.05);mRNA expression of type Ⅱ collagen and aggrecan increased(P<0.05)in the RAPA@Lipo@MS group.(3)These findings indicate that RAPA@Lipo@MS can control the quality of cells in vivo by enhancing autophagy,reduce senescent cells in vivo,and locally eliminate senescent cells and senescence-associated secretory phenotype factors in osteoarthritis,thereby slowing the progression of osteoarthritis and creating a cartilage microenvironment that promotes regeneration.

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.

Objective:To investigate the feasibility of segmented total marrow and lymphoid irradiation(TMLI)using Helical TomoTherapy(HT)in adults,and to analyze the impact of positional errors in the treatment on the actually received dose.Methods:Imaging data from four adult patients with acute myeloid leukemia were treated at the First Medical Center of the Chinese PLA General Hospital between November 2022 and December 2024 were retrospectively selected.The prescribed dose was 12 Gy in 3 fractions,and the heights range of patient was from 162 to 178 cm.The planning target volume(PTV)included the entire bone marrow and lymphatic drainage regions.The mid-femur was used as the dividing landmark,and the segmented location of head-in first(upper segmentation)and foot-in first(lower segmentation)were adopted to design plan for each segmentation.The upper segmentation used helical tomotherapy,and the lower segmentation used tomo direct therapy.The dosimetric parameters of planning target volume,and organ at risk(OAR)included eye lens,testicles and lungs were analyzed.The located computed tomography(CT)images of patients were used to simulate the changes of dosimetric parameters of each planning target region and OAR when the positions of patients moved 3,5,10 and 15 mm to outside of rack aperture.The changes of dose distribution of connection region of upper and lower segmentation were further analyzed.Results:The segmented irradiation technique can better achieve the cover(95%)of whole target region of TMLI under the condition of protecting normal organs.Under the condition with different position errors,the cover rate of the most of target region significant decreased.The largest dose of right lens increased 9.272%than primary under the 5 mm position error,and that of left and right lens increased respectively 40.199%and 67.898%under the 10 mm position error,and the max dose and mean dose of testicles increased respectively 5.847%and 5.240%under the 3mm position error.The mean dose of whole lung increased all under the error at different grades,which increased 3.021%under the 10mm position error.The non-uniformity of dose distribution of connection region increased after the position error was introduced,and the largest variation range reached to 4 Gy.Conclusion:The technique of segmented radiotherapy of Helical Tomotherapy has feasibility for TMLI of adult.But the error of the position of patients can reduce the cover of target region,and decrease the control rate for target region,and can lead to the occurrences of excessive doses on eye lens,testicles,lung and other OAR at the same time,which can increase the probability of occurring OAR injury.It should be high pay attention in treatment and implementation.

Objective:To investigate the clinical characteristics and prognosis of patients with hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis(HLH).Methods:Clinical data of 78 patients with HLH admitted to Gansu Provincial People's Hospital from January 2014 to May 2023 were collected,and the correlation between relevant indicators and patient prognosis was analyzed.Results:Among the 78 HLH patients,there were 48 males and 30 females,with a median age of onset of 48(1-84)years old;26 patients were treated with chemotherapy,44 patients were treated with glucocorticoids,immunoglobulin or cyclosporine,5 patients received symptomatic treatment,1 patient received plasma exchange,and 2 patients refused treatment.By the end of the follow-up,there were 39 survivors,35 deaths,and 4 patients lost to follow-up.There was no significant correlation between sex,ferritin,triglycerides,hemophagocytosis,bone marrow cellularity,Epstein-Barr virus(EBV)infection,SUV value of PET-CT,alanine aminotransferase(ALT),interleukin-6(IL-6),platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio(PLR)and overall survival(OS)of the patients(P＞0.05).Patients with age ≥ 60 years,neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio(NLR)＞0.59,red cell distribution width-to-platelet ratio(RPR)＞0.30,lymphocyte-to-monocyte ratio(LMR)≤ 2.74,red blood cell distribution width(RDW)＞16.45％,tumor-associated HLH,aspartate aminotransferase(AST)≥ 148 U/L,procalcitonin(PCT)≥ 0.66 ng/ml,neutrophils(NEU)＜2 × 109/L,fibrinogen(FIB)＜1.85 g/L,lactate dehydrogenase(LDH)≥ 1 740 U/L,hemoglobin(Hb)＜85 g/L,platelet(PLT)＜57 × 109/L had significantly shorter OS,with statistical significance(P＜0.05).Multivariate analysis showed that LMR ≤ 2.74,RDW＞16.45％,LDH ≥ 1 740 U/L,and NEU＜2 × 109/L were independent risk factors affecting OS in HLH patients(P＜0.05).Conclusion:Some blood-based inflammatory markers are significantly associated with OS in patients with HLH.NLR,RPR,LMR,RDW and PCT can be used to assess the prognosis of HLH patients,and RDW and LMR are independent factors affecting OS of HLH patients,which provide greater predictive value for prognosis.Hypercellular bone marrow in HLH patients may indicate a poor prognosis.

Objective:To summarize the experience of diagnosis and treatment of unexplained neonatal intestinal perforation.Methods:A case summary was conducted.Intestinal perforation children who showed unclear etiology during surgical exploration in Fujian Children′s Hospital from October 2017 to October 2023 were retrospectively analyzed.The perforation characteristics, pathological characteristics, etiological analysis and surgical methods were analyzed, and the diagnosis and treatment experience was summarized.Results:There were 21 neonates with unexplained intestinal perforation, including 15 boys and 6 girls.There were more full-term infants (12 cases) than preterm ones (9 cases), and more neonates with normal birth weight (12 cases) than those with low birth weight (9 cases).Intraoperative perforation was detected in the ileum in 13 cases and colon in 8 cases.The perforation diameter ranged between 0.5-2.0 cm.Single perforation was detected in 20 cases, and 1 case had two perforations.All patients underwent full-layer multipoint biopsy and enterostomy.Pathological reports after surgery showed that Hirschsprung disease was confirmed in 10 cases, and Hirschsprung disease allied disorders were diagnosed in 8 cases.The remaining 3 cases had normal ganglion cells, and 2 cases of them had spontaneous intestinal perforation, and 1 case had meconium ileus.After operation, 3 cases gave up treatment, 1 case died, and 17 patients were discharged from hospital at the first stage.Nine cases with Hirschsprung disease received radical surgery at the age of 3-6 months.Six out of 8 patients with Hirschsprung disease allied disorders underwent fistula closure surgery after accurate evaluation.Among the 6 children who received fistula closure surgery, 1 case underwent Santulli enterostomy because of inability to defecate and abdominal distension after surgery.Two of the 6 children undergoing fistula closure surgery were still being followed up.Two cases of spontaneous intestinal perforation and 1 case of meconium ileus underwent fistula closure surgery at the age of 3 months, and postoperative defecation was normal.Conclusions:Intestinal neuronal dysplasia, meconium ileus combined with intestinal perforation and spontaneous intestinal perforation should be considered in unexplained neonatal intestinal perforation.It is recommended that enterostomy and multipoint biopsy should be performed to clarify the pathology before further treatment in children with unexplained intestinal perforation.Santulli enterostomy is a feasible staging operation.
