Objective To analyze the clinical characteristics and risk factors of extreme thrombocytosis caused by piperacillin sodium and tazobactam sodium injection, and provide reference for medical treatment and pharmaceutical care of such patients. Methods Extreme thrombocytosis of a patient treated with piperacillin sodium and tazobactam sodium injection was found by clinical pharmacists, who participated in clinical diagnosis and treatment by analyzing of the adverse drug reaction, optimization of the medical treatment and pharmaceutical care. Results After correlation analysis, the patient's extreme thrombocytosis was likely to be an adverse reaction caused by the piperacillin sodium and tazobactam sodium injection. The medication was immediately discontinued, and antiplatelet therapy with aspirin was administered. Two weeks later, the patient's platelet count had significantly decreased compared to before. Conclusion Clinical pharmacists participated in patients’ clinical diagnosis and treatment, carried out pharmaceutical care and assisted physicians in adjusting treatment plans, which ensured the safety and effectiveness of patients' clinical drug therapy.

Mass spectrometry imaging （MSI） is an emerging molecular imaging technique that combines high spatial resolution and the ability to acquire molecular information. This technology can directly obtain spatial distribution maps of metabolites, proteins, lipids and other molecules in tumor tissues, reveal the abnormal molecular changes during the occurrence and development of liver cancer, and make up for the deficiency of information at the molecular level in traditional imaging （such as CT, MRI）. In liver cancer research, MSI has demonstrated unique advantages and application potential in early diagnosis and screening, precise classification, tumor heterogeneity analysis, and exploration of molecular mechanisms. The principle characteristics of MSI technology and its latest progress in the early diagnosis, classification and molecular mechanism research of liver cancer were reviewed, and the current challenges and future development directions were discussed, which aimed to provide a new perspective and theoretical basis for an in-depth understanding of the pathological mechanism of liver cancer and promoted its precise diagnosis and treatment.

OBJECTIVE To evaluate the efficacy and safety of cadonilimab plus chemotherapy in patients with advanced gastric adenocarcinoma or adenocarcinoma of gastroesophageal junction （AEG） with intermediate， low， or no human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 （HER2） expression. METHODS Patients with advanced gastric adenocarcinoma or AEG with intermediate， low， or no HER2 expression who were treated at Liaoning Cancer Hospital between October 1， 2024 and June 30， 2025 were retrospectively included. According to the treatment regimen received， the patients were divided into group A [cadonilimab plus oxaliplatin and capecitabine （XELOX）， n ＝54 ] ， group B （sintilimab plus XELOX， n ＝68）， and group C （tislelizumab plus XELOX， n ＝49）. Short-term efficacy after 4 cycles of treatment， survival outcomes， and adverse events were compared among the three groups. Cox regression and Logistic regression analyses were further performed to evaluate the effects of the treatment regimen and baseline data on survival outcomes and the risk of grade 3-4 treatment related adverse events （TRAEs）. RESULTS No statistically significant differences in objective response rate or disease control rate were observed among the three groups （ P ＞0.05）. The median progression-free survival was 7.56 （5.62， 8.11） months in group A， 7.23 （5.33， 8.23） months in group B， and 7.33 （5.42， 8.19） months in group C， with no statistically significant difference among the three groups （ P ＞0.05）. The median overall survival （mOS） was 11.67 （8.82， 13.88） months in group A， 9.78 （6.82， 12.73） months in group B， and 9.69 （6.78， 12.66） months in group C. The mOS was significantly longer in group A than in group B and group C （ P ＜0.05）， whereas no statistically significant difference was observed between group B and group C （ P ＞0.05）. The correlation analysis indicated that treatment regimen， Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status （ECOG PS）， number of metastatic organs， and peritoneal metastasis may be associated with overall survival （OS）. No significant association was observed between treatment regimen and the risk of grade 3-4 TRAEs. The incidences of grade 1-2 or grade 3-4 TRAEs did not differ significantly among the three groups （ P ＞0.05）. CONCLUSIONS In patients with advanced gastric adenocarcinoma or AEG with intermediate， low， or no HER2 expression， cadonilimab plus XELOX may provide a more significant OS benefit with a safety profile comparable to that of sintilimab or tislelizumab plus XELOX. Further studies with larger sample sizes are required to validate these findings.

Objective To analyze the technical essentials of single-microport assisted micro-uni-port thoracoscopic surgery, and to investigate its surgical efficacy and promotional value. Methods Clinical data of patients who consecutively underwent radical upper lobectomy in the Department of Thoracic Surgery of Xi'an International Medical Center Hospital from March 2023 to June 2024 were retrospectively analyzed. According to the surgical approach, patients were divided into two groups: the single-microport assisted group (underwent upper lobectomy via single-microport assisted micro-uni-port thoracoscopy) and the traditional uniportal group (underwent traditional uniportal thoracoscopic lobectomy). Clinical outcomes were compared between the two groups. Results A total of 62 patients were enrolled. There were 30 patients in the single-microport assisted group, with a mean age of (57.4±10.8) years, and 32 patients in the traditional uniportal thoracoscopic group, with a mean age of (57.6±8.7) years. The baseline data were comparable between the two groups. All patients in both groups successfully underwent minimally invasive surgery without conversion to thoracotomy. The operative time in the single-microport assisted group was significantly shorter than that in the traditional uniportal group [(146.03±30.79) min vs. (171.41±36.41) min, P=0.004]. However, there were no statistically significant differences between the two groups in intraoperative blood loss, number of dissected lymph nodes, duration of chest tube drainage, postoperative pain score, postoperative hospital stay, hospitalization cost, or incidence of postoperative complications (all P>0.05). Conclusion Single-microport assisted micro-uni-port thoracoscopic surgery for upper lobectomy can maximally integrate the advantages of three-port and uni-port VATS while effectively avoiding their disadvantages. It significantly shortens the operative time without increasing postoperative pain or complications, and represents a more minimally invasive, safer, and more convenient surgical approach.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the targeting effect of folic acid-modified crebanine nanoparticles （FA-Cre@PEG- PLGA NPs， hereinafter referred to as “NPs”） combined with ultrasound irradiation on M109 cells in vitro and in vivo after administration， and explore the anti-tumor mechanism. METHODS CCK-8 assay was used to detect the inhibitory effect of NPs combined with ultrasound irradiation on the proliferation of M109 cells， and the best ultrasound time was selected. Using human lung cancer A549 cells as a control， the targeting of NPs combined with ultrasound irradiation to M109 cells was evaluated by free folic acid blocking assay and cell uptake assay. The effects of NPs combined with ultrasound irradiation on the migration， invasion， apoptosis， cell cycle and reactive oxygen species （ROS） levels of M109 cells were detected by cell scratch test， Transwell chamber test and flow cytometry at 1 h after 958401536@qq.com administration； the changes of mitochondrial membrane potential （MMP） were observed by fluorescence inverted microscope. A mouse subcutaneous tumor model of M109 cells was constructed， and the in vivo tumor targeting of NPs combined with ultrasound irradiation was investigated by small animal in vivo imaging technology. RESULTS NPs combined with ultrasound irradiation could significantly inhibit the proliferation of M109 cells， and the optimal ultrasound time was 1 h after administration. The free folic acid could antagonize the inhibitory effect of NPs on the proliferation of M109 cells， and combined with ultrasound irradiation could partially reverse this antagonism. Compared with A549 cells， the uptake rate of NPs in M109 cells was significantly higher （P＜0.01）， and ultrasound irradiation could promote cellular uptake. NPs combined with ultrasound irradiation could inhibit the migration and invasion of M109 cells and block the cell cycle in the G0/G1 and G2/M phases. Compared with control group， the apoptosis rate of M109 cells and ROS level were increased significantly （P＜0.01）， while the MMP decreased significantly （P＜0.01） in the different concentration （100， 200， 300 μg/mL） groups of M109 cells. Compared with the mice in non-ultrasound group， the fluorescence intensity and tumor-targeting index of the tumor site in the 0 h ultrasound group were significantly enhanced （P＜0.05 or P＜0.01）. CONCLUSIONS NPs combined with ultrasound irradiation have a strong targeting effect on M109 cells in vitro and in vivo， the anti-tumor mechanism includes inhibiting cell migration and invasion， blocking cell cycle， and inducing apoptosis.

Objective To explore the traditional Chinese medicine(TCM)syndrome characteristics of patients with Chikungunya hemorrhagic fever and to provide empirical data to support the application of TCM in diagnosing and treating Chikungunya hemorrhagic fever.Methods A cross-sectional survey was conducted to collect clinical data(sex,age,days since onset,and comorbidity underlying disease conditions)and TCM with four-examination information(symptoms,tongue manifestations,and pulse manifestations)from 255 patients with Chikungunya hemorrhagic fever who visited Lecong Hospital of Shunde,Foshan,the Third People's Hospital of Shunde District of Foshan,Shunde Hospital of Southern Medical University Affiliated Chencun Hospital between July 23 and July 29,2025.Factor and cluster analyses were used to summarize TCM syndrome characteristics and analyze core pathogenesis in conjunction with clinical features.Results Among the 255 patients with Chikungunya hemorrhagic fever,131 were male and 124 were female,with a age of(49.05±17.93)years and a disease duration of(3.26±1.78)days.Among the four types of examination information in TCM,35 items exhibited a frequency exceeding 10%.The most prevalent symptoms were arthralgia(180 patients,70.59%),exanthem(153 patients,60.00%),fatigue(99 patients,38.82%),anhidrosis(98 patients,38.43%),pruritus(96 patients,37.65%),and fever(92 patients,36.08%).Tongue and pulse manifestations were primarily white fur(155 patients,60.78%),pink tongue(111 patients,43.53%),slippery pulse(143 patients,56.08%),and greasy fur(134 patients,52.53%).Patients with disease onset≤3 d had a higher incidence of arthralgia,fatigue,fever,aversion to cold,generalized muscle pain,aversion to wind,insomnia,headache,sweating,low-grade fever,poor appetite,loose stool,hyperhidrosis,and red tongue than those with disease onset≥4 d(P<0.05).Patients with disease onset≥4 d had a higher incidence of pink tongue and thick fur than those with disease onset≤3 d(P<0.05).The syndrome elements in patients with Chikungunya hemorrhagic fever predominantly manifested on the defensive exterior,with involvement of the sinew-bone joints,skin-muscle,and spleen.Pathogenic factors were primarily characterized by external winds,dampness,and heat.Factor and cluster analysis result indicated three TCM pathogenesis progression patterns:imbalance of the defensive exterior with wind-dampness conflict and heat transformation;dampness-heat flowing into muscles and meridians causing joint obstruction and qi blood stasis;and dampness-heat congelation resulting in qi mechanism obstruction,consumption of body fluids,and infiltration of the skin.Conclusion Patients with Chikungunya hemorrhagic fever primarily present with fever,joint pain,and rashes.In TCM,this condition falls under the category of"dampness-warmth"syndrome.Its etiology is attributed to pathogens,with transmission occurring through mosquito bites.The core pathogenesis of TCM is the invasion of the defensive exterior and dampness-toxic heat accumulation.The therapeutic principles focus on clearing heat pathogens,resolving dampness pathogens,dispersing wind pathogens,and promoting the resolution of rashes.

Objective Compare the depression phenotypes of a breast cancer tumor-bearing mouse model constructed using two different method and a mouse model of breast cancer depression with clinical manifestations,as well as assess their suitability for basic research.Methods We constructed a tumor model with 4T1 breast cancer cells alone(4T1 group)and a tumor-depression composite model given chronic unpredictable mild(CUMS)(4T1+CUMS group).The experimental period was 42 d,and the body mass,tumor volume,and survival time of the mice were monitored throughout the whole process.Two depressive behavioral tests(of sucrose preference test,open field test,tail suspension test,and elevated plus maze)were performed on the 15th and 29th days,respectively.Hematoxylin-eosin(HE)staining was used to observe the pathological changes of hippocampal neurons in brain tissue sections.Results(1)Body mass:The body mass of the 4T1 group and 4T1+CUMS group began to decrease from 29 d,and the body mass of the 4T1+CUMS group was significantly lower than that of the 4T1 group and Control group at the end of the experiment(P<0.001).(2)Tumor volume:There was no significant difference in the growth rate of tumors between the two model groups throughout the experiment(P>0.05).(3)Survival time:The survival rates of the 4T1 group and 4T1+CUMS group were 100％and 60％,and the first death of mice in the 4T1+CUMS group was on the 36th day.(4)Behavior test of depression:There was no significant difference between the three groups in the first depressive behavior tests(P>0.05),and the two groups showed obvious depressive phenotypes in the second behavioral tests.The sucrose preference index and activity distance in the central area were significantly decreased in the two model groups(P<0.001),and the immobility time was significantly increased(P<0.001).(5)Pathological section of brain tissue:On pathological examination of brain tissue,we observed a reduced number of neuronal cells in the hippocampus of the 4T1 group and 4T1+CUMS group,their morphology was irregular,the arrangement between the cells was disordered and the gap was unclear,and some nucleoli were blurred.Conclusions Although the tumor-only method and the tumor with compound stress stimulation method can both be used to prepare breast cancer depression models,the tumor-only modeling method is simpler and the mortality rate after successful modeling is higher.The long window of time is convenient for subsequent drug administration and detection,and the causes of the depression phenotype are more in line with the clinical causes and manifestations.Therefore,the 4T1 model can provide a reference model for future animal experiments on breast cancer tumor-related depression.

AIM:This study aimed to utilize network pharmacology and an anxiety rat model to investigate the intervention targets and underlying mechanisms of Baixiangdan capsule(BXD)in the treatment of anxiety-like behavior.METHODS:We screened the action targets of BXD on the anxiety model using network pharmacology,followed by Gene Ontology(GO)enrichment and the Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes(KEGG)pathway analysis of the identified targets.Additionally,we evaluated the effects of BXD on rat anxiety behaviors induced by foot shock,with measurement of serum level of c-Jun N-terminal kinase inhibitor(JIK),and the protein levels of c-Jun N-terminal kinase(JNK),phos-phorylated JNK(p-JNK)and JIK in the left hippocampus and hypothalamus.RESULTS:A total of 97 targets,including the dopamine D1/D3 receptors,were identified as intersection targets.GO enrichment analysis indicated that target pro-teins were significantly involved in molecular functions such as catecholamine binding,receptor activation,and signal transduction.KEGG pathway analysis revealed that neural receptor-ligand pathways,including dopaminergic synapses(15%)and neuroactive ligand-receptor interaction(18%),were notably represented.In behavioral experiments,BXD and diazepam treatments significantly reduced total path in the open-field test(P＜0.01),while the number of entries into the central region increased(P＜0.05).Additionally,the percentage of entry times of the open arm and the percentage of time spent in the open arm were also increased(P＜0.01).Furthermore,BXD treatment led to decreased ratio of p-JNK/JNK and increased level of JIK(P＜0.05).CONCLUSION:The traditional Chinese medicine BXD demonstrates a promising efficacy in alleviating anxiety-like behaviors in model rats.It operates through a multi-component,multi-target,and multi-pathway approach,primarily by modulating the JIK/JNK signaling pathway.

AIM:This study aims to investigate the protective effect of Buyang-Huanwu decoction(BYHWD)on cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury(CIRI)in rats,focusing on its role in regulating the autophagy of cerebral micro-vascular endothelial cells(BMECs).METHODS:(1)We established a rat model of middle cerebral artery occlusion/re-perfusion(MCAO/R)and divided the subjects into four groups:sham group,model(MCAO/R)group,BYHWD group,and 3-n-butylphthalide(NBP)group.Neurological deficits were assessed using the Zea Longa score,while the volume of cerebral infarction was measured through 2,3,5-triphenyltetrazolium chloride(TTC)staining.Pathological damage in the ischemic penumbra was evaluated using HE staining,and blood-brain barrier(BBB)permeability was assessed by Evans blue(EB)staining.The ultrastructure of BMECs was analyzed by transmission electron microscopy,and the co-expres-sion and positive cell rate of microtubule-associated protein 1 light chain 3(LC3)in BMECs were determined through im-munofluorescence double staining.Additionally,the protein expression levels of ZO-1,claudin-5 and occludin in the cor-tical region of the ischemic penumbra in rats were examined using Western blot analysis.(2)A rat BMEC model of oxy-gen-glucose deprivation/reoxygenation(OGD/R)was also established.Rat BMECs were categorized into normal control(CON),OGD/R,dimethyl sulfoxide(DMSO),rapamycin and 3-methyladenine groups to observe autophagy levels by monodansylcadaverine(MDC)staining.Furthermore,rat BMECs were divided into CON,OGD/R,BYHWD-containing serum(BHDS)and NBP groups.The cell autophagy was assessed by MDC staining and Western blot,while cell viability was measured by CCK-8 assay.RESULTS:(1)The rats in MCAO/R group exhibited significantly higher neurological scores(P＜0.01)and increased cerebral infarction volumes(P＜0.01)compared with sham group.Severe damage in the ischemic penumbra was observed,characterized by disordered tissue structure,widened intercellular spaces,and compro-mised cellular integrity.The EB dye permeability was notably elevated(P＜0.01),and BMECs showed structural destruc-tion,including damaged cell membranes,swollen Golgi apparatus,dilated endoplasmic reticulum vesicles,and damaged mitochondria.The ratio of LC3+CD31+/CD31+and the protein levels of ZO-1,claudin-5 and occludin were significantly el-evated(P＜0.01).In contrast,the rats in BYHWD and NBP groups demonstrated lower neurological scores(P＜0.01)and reduced cerebral infarction volumes(P＜0.01).Furthermore,EB permeability decreased(P＜0.01),BMEC morphol-ogy improved,and the protein expression levels of ZO-1,claudin-5 and occludin increased(P＜0.05).(2)Rat BMECs in OGD/R group had a significantly elevated autophagy level compared with CON group(P＜0.01),with increased expres-sion of LC3 and beclin-1 proteins and decreased level of P62 protein(P＜0.05).Notably,the cells in BHDS and NBP groups displayed decreased autophagy level compared with OGD/R group,with increased cell viability(P＜0.01),re-duced LC3 and beclin-1 protein expression,and increased P62 protein expression(P＜0.05).CONCLUSION:Buyang-Huanwu decoction alleviates cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury in rats by inhibiting the autophagy of cerebral microvas-cular endothelial cells.
