Despite breakthroughs in immunotherapy for solid tumors, significant variations in treatment efficacy persist. Up to 80% of cancer patients suffer from malnutrition, which leads to: lymphoid atrophy and reduced T-cell reserves; deficiency of substrates required for T-cell activation and expansion; concurrent inflammation hindering T-cell infiltration into tumors; and cachexia accelerating PD-1 antibody clearance. Clinical studies confirm that severe malnutrition significantly impairs immune responses and increases the risk of treatment toxicity. Therefore, implementing standardized nutritional therapy is crucial for optimizing the reserve, activation, expansion, and infiltration capacity of immune cells, thereby providing a sound immune system foundation for immunotherapy. Immunonutrition therapy, by enhancing immunonutrients such as arginine, omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids, and nucleotides, reduces the secretion of pro-inflammatory mediators and promotes T-cell activation and proliferation. This enhances anti-tumor immune responses, prolongs survival, and advances cancer treatment towards multimodal combination and precision approaches.

Objective: To investigate the effect of auricular therapy on sleep improvement and the GABAergic system pathway in a rat model of insomnia and to explore its possible mechanism. Methods: According to the random number table, 60 male SD rats were randomly divided into blank control, model, auricular point sticking, auricular bloodletting, and auricular bloodletting combined with sticking groups, with 12 rats per group. Insomnia was induced by intraperitoneal injection of p-chlorophenylalanine. After establishing the insomnia model, 36 rats were treated once a day with auricular point sticking or bloodletting for 5 consecutive days. After the intervention, the general condition and body weight of rats were observed; the righting reflex test was used to detect the sleep latency and duration; HE staining was used to observe the morphology of hypothalamic neuron cells; and an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay was used to detect the GABA and glutamate content in rat serum. Immunohistochemistry(IHC) and real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR were used to detect GABA ARα1 and GABA ARγ2 protein and mRNA expression in the hypothalamus of rats, and Western blotting(WB) was used to detect GABA ARα1, GABA ARγ2, GAD65/67, GAT-1, and GABA-T protein expression in the hypothalamus of rats. Results: Compared with the blank control group, the model group had a lower body weight, a significantly shorter sleep duration (P<0.05), severe damage to the morphological structure of hypothalamic neurons with disordered cell arrangement, larger intercellular gaps, enlarged cell bodies, and a vacuolated appearance. All the intervention groups had significantly higher body weight and longer sleep duration than the model group (P<0.05). Compared with the other intervention groups, the auricular point sticking group had a longer sleep duration (P<0.05), and the hypothalamic neuron cells in all intervention groups improved, with the auricular point sticking group showing more apparent improvement. The model group had a lower GABA and higher glutamate contents, and GABA ARα1, GABA ARγ2, and GAD65/67 protein expression in the hypothalamus were lower than in the blank control group. In contrast, GAT-1 and GABA-T protein expression was higher, and GABA ARα1 and GABA ARγ2 mRNA expression was lower (P<0.05). The serum GABA content in the auricular point sticking and auricular bloodletting groups was higher, and the serum glutamate content in the auricular point sticking and auricular bloodletting combined sticking groups was lower than in the model group. GABA ARα1 mRNA expression in the hypothalamus of each intervention group was significantly increased, and GABA ARγ2 mRNA expression in the hypothalamus of the auricular point sticking and auricular bloodletting combined sticking groups increased. GABA ARα1(IHC, WB), GABA ARγ2(WB), and GAD65/67 protein expression in the hypothalamus of the auricular point sticking group increased, whereas GAT-1 and GABA-T protein expression decreased. GABA ARα1 and GABA ARγ2 protein expression(IHC, WB) in the hypothalamus of the auricular bloodletting group increased, whereas GABA-T protein expression decreased. GABA ARγ1(IHC) and GABA ARγ2(WB) protein expression in the hypothalamus of the auricular bloodletting combined sticking group increased, whereas GAT-1 and GABA-T protein expression decreased (P<0.05). Compared with in the inventation groups, the serum GABA content in the auricular point sticking group increased, the serum glutamate content decreased, GABA ARα1 and GABA ARγ2 mRNA expression in the hypothalamus increased, and GABA ARα1(IHC), GAD65/67 protein expression increased. In contrast, GABA-T protein expression decreased (P<0.05), and GABA ARγ2 protein expression(IHC) in the hypothalamus of the auricular bloodletting group increased (P<0.05). Conclusion Auricular therapy, particularly auricular point sticking, may have modulated the GABAergic system pathway by upregulating hypothalamic GABA ARα1, GABA ARγ2, and GAD65/67 protein expression while downregulating GAT-1 and GABA-T protein expression to alleviate symptoms in an insomnia rat model.

The SVA and different serotypes of VSV(VSNJV and VSIV)are susceptible to infect pigs and cause blister injuries to the lips and hoof of pigs.The clinical symptoms of diseases caused by these viruses are very similar,which is easy to cause misdiagnosis.Therefore,a multiplex nano-PCR method was developed for the simultaneous defection of VSV,VSNJV and VSIV.In this stud-y,three pairs of specific primers were designed according to the SVA-P gene,VSNJV-N gene and VSIV-N gene.The optimal annealing temperature and optimal primer concentration were tested,and the reaction system and conditions were optimized.We have developed a novel,rapid and sensitive multiple nano-PCR detection method for simultaneous detection of SVA,VSNJV and VSIV,which was developed by using nano-metal materials.The specific test results showed that the method could specifically amplify the target genes of SVA,VSNJV and VSIV,with no cross-reactivity to PRV,ASFV,PCV2 and PHEV.The sensitivity test results showed that the minimum nucleic acid detection of the method was 10 copies/μL,which sensitivity was great.In addition,the optimal primers showed good reactivity and stability to different batches of enzymes and plasmids.There were 7 among 50 of diseased pig samples were SVA positive by multiple nano-PCR detec-tion method,and 5 out of 50 of diseased pig samples were SVA positive by ordinary single PCR method.Moreover,no VSNJV and VSIV were detected by the two methods.In conclusion,this es-tablished multiple nano-PCR detection method has higher specificity and sensitivity in the detec-tion of SVA,VSNJV and VSIV.And this study could provide technical support for the rapid differ-ential diagnosis,prevention and control of swine viral vesicular diseases in clinical settings.

Objective: To analyze the monitoring results of key occupational hazard factors in workplaces across different industries in Aba Tibetan and Qiang Autonomous Prefecture (Aba Prefecture), Sichuan Province, so as to provide the basis for optimizing occupational disease prevention and control measures. Methods: Data of key occupational hazard factors in workplaces in Aba Prefecture from 2022 to 2024 were collected through the Workplace Occupational Hazard Monitoring System. Descriptive analyses were conducted on the over-standard rates of occupational hazard factors, completion rates of occupational health examinations, and participation rates in occupational health training. Results: From 2022 to 2024, 165 enterprise-times in Aba Prefecture were monitored, with 112 enterprise-times exceeding the standards, the over-standard rate of enterprises was 67.88%. A total of 1 005 worksite positions were monitored, with 302 exceeding the standards, the over-standard rate of worksite positions was 30.05%. The over-standard rates of enterprises and worksite positions showed upward trends from 2022 to 2024 (both P<0.05). The over-standard rates of enterprises in the ferrous metal mining and dressing industry and non-ferrous metal mining and dressing industry were both 100%. The top three over-standard rates of worksite positions were in the non-metallic mining and dressing industry, ferrous metal mining and dressing industry, and non-ferrous metal mining and dressing industry, at 62.50%, 56.00%, and 53.13%, respectively. Worksite positions exposed to silica dust, noise, and coal dust had relatively high over-standard rates, at 17.00%, 10.04%, and 7.27%, respectively. The actual numbers of physical examinations for personnel at worksite positions with dust, chemical factors, and physical factors were 9 398, 2 469, and 10 928 person-times, respectively, with completion rates of 95.78%, 81.03%, and 100.00%, respectively. The actual number of re-examinations were 428, 129, and 1 121 person-times, respectively, with re-examination rates of 64.26%, 27.27%, and 81.53%, respectively. Among the monitored enterprises, 102 enterprise-times participated in training for persons in charge, with a participation rate of 61.82%; 108 enterprise-times participated in training for occupational health management personnel, with a participation rate of 65.45%; and 10 489 person-times of workers exposed to hazards participated in occupational health training for workers, with a participation rate of 86.24%. Conclusions The over-standard rate of key occupational hazards factors in workplaces in Aba Prefecture was relatively high.

Objective To investigate the safety and feasibility of the domestic SA-1000 single-port single-arm robot-assisted laparoscopic system in total hysterectomy.Methods Data from 16 patients who underwent total hysterectomy using the SA-1000 system at the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology,The Second Affiliated Hospital of Naval Medical University,between Mar.2023 and Jan.2024 were retrospectively collected.Surgical parameters were analyzed.Postoperative pain was assessed using the visual analogue scale(VAS)at 24 h after surgery and before discharge.Incision cosmesis was evaluated 3-5 weeks postoperatively using the body image questionnaire(BIQ,score range 3-24).Results All 16 procedures were successfully completed using the SA-1000 system without conversion to open surgery,achieving a 100.0%procedural success rate.The mean whole surgery time was(234.40±56.24)min.The median robotic arm setup time was 8.0(4.0,13.5)min,and the median console operating time was 128.0(100.0,151.0)min.The median intraoperative blood loss was 100.0(100.0,200.0)mL.No perioperative complications,such as hemorrhage,infection,injury to adjacent organs(ureters,bladder,bowel),poor wound healing,or incisional hernia,were observed.The mean wound pain score at 24 h postoperatively was 3.81±1.64,decreasing to a median of 3.0(2.0,4.0)before discharge.The BIQ score assessed at 3-5 weeks postoperatively was 21.88±1.15.Conclusion The application of the domestic SA-1000 single-port single-arm robot-assisted laparoscopic system for total hysterectomy is safe and feasible,demonstrating favorable surgical outcomes.It holds promise for broader implementation and promotion in domestic medical centers.

Objective:To compare the performance of next-generation sequencing (NGS) and Sanger sequencing in investigating somatic hypermutation (SHM) status of immunoglobulin heavy chain variable region (IGHV) genes. It specifically focuses on identifying key factors contributing to discrepancies between the two methods, particularly under complex clonal backgrounds, to inform optimized strategies for clinical application.Methods:This retrospective analysis included 53 samples, comprising 43 identified as non-monoclonal and 10 as monoclonal using Sanger sequencing. All samples were further analyzed using NGS to assess IGHV SHM. The two methods were used for systematic comparison. For discordant cases, in-depth attribution analysis was conducted, considering factors, including clonal abundance quantification, differences in primer design, and interpretation criteria.Results:Among the 53 patients who underwent both Sanger and NGS testing, 36 were male and 17 were female, with a median age of 64 years (range: 33–88). Diagnoses included chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) in 35 (66.0% ), diffuse large B-cell lymphoma in 9 (17.0% ), follicular lymphoma in 3 (5.7% ), mantle cell lymphoma in 3 (5.7% ), and other types in 3 (5.7% ) cases. In the 43 cases with non-monoclonal profiles using Sanger sequencing, NGS revealed 23 cases as biclonal or polyclonal, 17 as monoclonal, and 3 with no detectable clonality. The primary discrepancies between the two methods involved variations in clonality assessment, IGHV gene rearrangement types, and mutation rates. Among the 10 cases identified as monoclonal using Sanger sequencing, NGS detected biclonality and markedly different IGHV rearrangement types in 2 and 4 cases, respectively. Minor differences were observed in SHM percentage between the two methods; however, these did not substantially affect the overall determination of mutational status.Conclusion:Compared with Sanger sequencing, NGS exhibits superior performance in assessing IGHV SHM status under complex clonal conditions. It provides greater sensitivity and accuracy in detecting subclonal components and quantifying clonal proportions, thereby providing a more precise molecular basis for diagnosing and prognostically assessing lymphoid malignancies, including CLL.

OBJECTIVE To construct ensemble learning models for predicting high-use days of budesonide based on meteorological factors， thereby providing reference for hospital pharmacy management. METHODS Meteorological data for 2024 and outpatient budesonide usage data from the jurisdiction of Sanming Hospital of Integrated Traditional Chinese and Western Medicine were collected. High-use days were defined as the 75th percentile of outpatient budesonide usage， and a corresponding dataset was established. The prediction task was formulated as a classification problem， and three ensemble learning models were developed： Random Forest， Extreme Gradient Boosting （XGBoost）， and Histogram-based Gradient Boosting Classifier. Model performance was evaluated using accuracy， precision， recall， F1-score， and log-loss. Model interpretability was analyzed using Shapley Additive Explanations （SHAP）. RESULTS The Histogram-based Gradient Boosting Classifier achieved the best performance （accuracy＝0.75， F1-score＝0.48）， followed by XGBoost （accuracy＝0.74， F1-score＝0.43） and Random Forest （accuracy＝0.72， F1-score＝0.22）. SHAP results suggested that the prediction results of the last two models have the highest correction. CONCLUSIONS Ensemble learning models can effectively predict high-use days of budesonide， with the Histogram- based Gradient Boosting Classifier demonstrating the best predictive performance. Low temperature， high humidity， and low atmospheric pressure show significant positive impacts on the prediction of daily budesonide usage.

Objective:This study aims to evaluate the nasal structural and electrophysiological features of patients with postoperative olfactory dysfunction following aesthetic rhinoplasty.Methods:We retrospectively analyzed the clinical features of 30 outpatients (females, aged 33±6 years) from Beijing Anzhen Hospital and China-Japan Friendship Hospital between 2014 and 2023, who complained of olfactory dysfunction following aesthetic rhinoplasty. The control group was 30 healthy females aged 32±9 years. Psychophysical olfactory test (Sniffin′ Sticks, SS), olfactory and trigeminal event-related potentials (oERPs and tERPs), and acoustic rhinometry were used for evaluating the olfactory function and nasal structure in patients and healthy controls. SPSS 17.0 software was used to compare the difference in olfactory function and nasal structure between the two groups and to analyze the factors related postoperative olfactory dysfunction.Results:There was a significant difference in the scores on psychophysical olfactory test between the patients and controls (10.78±3.90 vs. 33.66±2.42, t=-23.35, P<0.001). ERPs could be evoked in all patients and controls. Patients showed higher amplitudes of N 1 waves in both oERPs and tERPs than controls ( P<0.05 for all), but no differences in the latencies of N 1 and P 2 waves or in the amplitudes of P 2 waves were observed between the two groups ( P>0.05 for all). There was no difference in nasal structure between the two groups ( P>0.05). However, after nasal decongestant, mucosal congestion in the cross-sectional area (CSA) from the nostril to 6 cm level was found more significantly in patients than controls (nasal congestion index 40.00% vs. 1.00%, t=2.09, P=0.047). Better olfactory function was associated with increasing nasal volumes, increasing nasal threshold and anterior nasal turbinate plane CSA( P<0.05 for all). Conclusion:The important factor related to olfactory dysfunction following aesthetic rhinoplasty may be attributed to local mucosal congestion, rather than nasal structural alteration or neurophysiologic deficits in the olfactory pathway.

Environmental toxicants have been linked to aging and age-related diseases. The emerging evidence has shown that the enhancement of detoxification gene expression is a common transcriptome marker of long-lived mice, Drosophila melanogaster, and Caenorhabditis elegans. Meanwhile, the resistance to toxicants was increased in long-lived animals. Here, we show that farnesoid X receptor (FXR) agonist obeticholic acid (OCA), a marketed drug for the treatment of cholestasis, may extend the lifespan and healthspan both in C. elegans and chemical-induced early senescent mice. Furthermore, OCA increased the resistance of worms to toxicants and activated the expression of detoxification genes in both mice and C. elegans. The longevity effects of OCA were attenuated in Fxr ^-/- mice and Fxr homologous nhr-8 and daf-12 mutant C. elegans. In addition, metabolome analysis revealed that OCA increased the endogenous agonist levels of the pregnane X receptor (PXR), a major nuclear receptor for detoxification regulation, in the liver of mice. Together, our findings suggest that OCA has the potential to lengthen lifespan and healthspan by activating nuclear receptor-mediated detoxification functions, thus, targeting FXR may offer to promote longevity.
