Breast cancer is a malignant tumor that occurs in the glandular epithelium of the breast, and it is one of the most common tumors that seriously affect the physical and mental health of women. With the aggravation of population aging, the incidence of breast cancer in the elderly has increased year by year in recent years. Elderly patients with breast cancer often have a variety of underlying diseases, and their prognosis is usually related to many factors such as cancer staging, cancer classification, treatment status and health status, with a significant difference in survival rate among patients. Due to the unique clinical and pathological characteristics of elderly patients with breast cancer compared to young and middle-aged patients, there are many studies on the treatment of elderly breast cancer patients in the past, and there are few reviews on the influencing factors of prognosis in elderly patients. This paper reviews the research progress of influencing factors of prognosis in elderly patients with breast cancer from the aspects of clinicopathological factors, treatment options and prognosis factors, in order to provide a reference for clinical determination of treatment options for elderly patients with breast cancer in the future.

Objective:
To explore the association of outdoor activity time and sleep duration with screening myopia in primary school students, so as to provide strategies for myopia prevention.
Methods:
Through a convenience sampling method, a survey was conducted among 4 248 primary school students aged 7-13 years from three primary schools in Xihu District, Nanchang City, Jiangxi Province from May to July, 2023. The average daily outdoor activity time and sleep duration on both weekdays and weekends were investigated in primary school students by using a self designed questionnaire. Uncorrected visual acuity tests and non cycloplegic autorefraction were measured by professional optometrists. Inter group comparisons were conducted using the Chi square test. Logistic regression model was used to analyze the association of outdoor activity time and sleep duration with screening myopia.
Results:
The detection rate of screening myopia in primary school students was 33.6%, with the rate in boys (32.0%) lower than that in girls (35.3%), and the difference was statistically significant ( χ 2=5.11, P =0.02). The analysis results of Logistic regression showed that after adjusting for factors such as gender, grade and parental education level, both average daily outdoor activity time <2 h on both weekdays and weekends ( OR =1.27, 95% CI =1.11-1.46) and sleep duration <10 h ( OR =1.17, 95% CI =1.01- 1.35 ), as well as their combined effect ( OR =1.57, 95% CI =1.25-1.98), were associated with an increased risk of screening myopia in primary school students(all P <0.05). Subgroup analysis results indicated that compared to boys ( OR =1.46, 95% CI = 1.07 -1.99), girls( OR =1.73, 95% CI =1.22-2.44) with insufficient outdoor activity time and sleep duration had a higher risk of screening myopia(both P <0.05).
Conclusions
There is a negative correlation of outdoor activity time and sleep duration with screening myopia in primary school students. Outdoor activity time and extending sleep duration should be increased to reduce the risk of myopia in primary school students.

Objective:To evaluate the safety and effectiveness of fuzuloparib for the treatment of ovarian epithelial cancer patients in the real world setting.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on the baseline data of 4 620 ovarian cancer patients who had received fuzuloparib monotherapy or combination therapy. Another 224 ovarian cancer patients who were willing to receive fuzuloparib monotherapy or combination therapy were prospectively enrolled, and their baseline characteristics, drug effectiveness, and safety data were analyzed.Results:(1) Among the 4 620 patients in the retrospective cohort, the median age of patients was 60 years; tumor types: 89.8% (4 149/4 620) had ovarian cancer. Among patients with clearly documented information, the vast majority had a histological type of serous carcinoma (82.9%, 3 770/4 546) and International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics (FIGO) staging of Ⅲ-Ⅳ (90.9%, 1 537/1 691). (2) Among the 224 patients in the prospective cohort, the median age of patients was 57 years; tumor types: 83.9% (188/224) had ovarian cancer. Among patients with clearly documented records, the predominant pathologic type was serous carcinoma (91.9%, 193/210), and FIGO stage was Ⅲ-Ⅳ in 79.9% (139/174). (3) Among the 224 prospective patients: 84 patients received first-line fluzoparib maintenance therapy, 92 patients received fluzoparib maintenance therapy after platinum-sensitive recurrence, 23 patients received direct fluzoparib treatment after platinum-sensitive recurrence, 19 patients received direct fluzoparib treatment after platinum-resistant recurrence. The median follow-up durations were 8.5, 8.7, 7.9, and 6.7 months, respectively. The median durations of fluzoparib treatment were 6.7, 4.8, 3.1, and 1.9 months, respectively. The median progression-free survival (PFS) times were not reached during follow-up, 12.6 months, not reached during follow-up, and 4.8 months, respectively. The 1-year PFS rates were 84.1%, 55.0%, 69.8%, and 45.5%, respectively. The remaining 6 patients received other fluzoparib regimens. (4) Among the 224 patients in the prospective dataset, 205 had safety data recorded. Of these, 127 patients (62.0%, 127/205) experienced treatment-related adverse events, with common events including anemia (24.4%, 50/205), thrombocytopenia (21.0%, 43/205), and leukopenia (19.5%, 40/205). Among the 205 patients, 43 (21.0%, 43/205) experienced grade 3 or higher treatment-related adverse events, with common events including anemia (8.3%, 17/205) and thrombocytopenia (8.3%, 17/205).Conclusions:The effectiveness of fuzuloparib in clinical application is generally consistent with other drugs in the same class, with good safety. This study provids new clinical evidence for the treatment of ovarian cancer with fuzuloparib.

Objective To investigate the expression profile of cell adhesion molecular 3(CADM3)on pulmonary endothelial cells,analyze its role in mediating specific adhesion to monocyte,and explore a new mechanism of hypoxia inducing peripheral monocyte infiltration in pulmonary vessels.Methods Human umbilical vein endothelial cells(HUVEC),rat pulmonary vascular endothelial cells(rPEC),and rat aortic endothelial cells(rAEC)were subjected,and divided into normoxic(21%O2)control group and hypoxic(1%O2 or 5%O2)treatment group.Analyzing the transcriptome data of HUVEC exposure to hypoxia for 8 h screened a differentially expressed molecule,CADM3.Cell adhesion experiments,siRNA interference,immunohistochemical assay,Western blotting,and flow cytometry were used to study the role of CADM3 in hypoxia specific high adhesion of HUVEC monocytes.Iron chelator deferoxamine(DFX)and shRNA interference were employed to enhance the expression of HIF-1α,and the effect of HIF-1 transcriptional activity on CADM3 expression was analyzed.Results Hypoxic treatment resulted in enhanced expression of CADM3 in HUVEC,and the expression level reached the peak at 6-8 h after hypoxia,and then decreased.Transfection with siRNA targeting CADM3 decreased the expression of CADM3,and significantly reduced the adhesion rate of hypoxic HUVEC-U937 cells when compared with the negative control group(P<0.05).Compared with the solvent control group,the protein levels of HIF-1α and its target protein STC2 in HUVEC treated with DFX(100 μmol/L)were increased.Transfection with shRNA targeting HIF-1α led the protein levels of HIF-1α and its target protein STC2 decreased,but had no effect on the protein expression of CADM3 in comparison to the negative control group.The protein level and distribution of CADM3 on the cell membrane were increased in hypoxic rPEC.No expression of CADM3 protein was found in the rAEC when compared with rPEC.After treatment with 5 μg/mL LPS,there were no significant changes in HIF-1α,STC2 and CADM3 in rPEC cultured under normoxia or hypoxia.The adhesion rate between hypoxia rPEC with CD11b+cells was the highest,with statistical significance(P<0.01).After incubation with anti-CADM3 antibody,the adhesion of hypoxic rPEC-U937 was significantly decreased compared with the solvent control group(P<0.05).Conclusion Hypoxia specifically induces the expression of CADM3 in pulmonary vascular endothelial cells in a HIF-1-independent manner,and promotes the specific adhesion of pulmonary vascular endothelial cells and monocytes induced by hypoxia.

Objective:To investigate the effect of intradialytic cerebral blood flow (CBF) fluctuation on cognitive decline in middle-aged and elderly maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) patients.Methods:It was a prospective cohort study. MHD patients aged ≥50 years from Beijing Shijitan Hospital were enrolled from January 2023 to June 2023. Middle cerebral artery mean flow velocity (MFV) was serially monitored via transcranial Doppler (TCD) during dialysis sessions. Cognitive function was assessed at baseline and after 12-month follow-up using standardized neuropsychological tests: montreal cognitive assessment (MoCA), auditory verbal learning test (AVLT 5), complex figure test (CFT), trail making test-B (TMT-B), Stroop color and word test (SCWT), and symbol digit modalities test (SDMT). ΔMFV was calculated as pre-to-post dialysis MFV difference. Multivariable linear regression was used to analyze the association of ΔMFV and cognition.Results:A total of 121 MHD patients were recruited with an age of (63.63±8.44) years. There were 97 males (80.2%), and the dialysis vintage was (55.08±54.73) months. Significant intradialytic MFV reductions were observed ( P<0.05). At 12 months, cognitive decline manifested in global cognition (MoCA), memory (CFT-memory), executive function (TMT-B, SCWT-C, SCWT-T), attention (SDMT), visuospatial ability (CFT-copy)(all P<0.05). Multivariable linear regression analysis revealed ΔMFV independently predicted declines in: MoCA ( B=0.066, 95% CI 0.018-0.113, P=0.007), AVLT5 ( B=0.050, 95% CI 0.004-0.097, P=0.035), TMT-B ( B=-1.955, 95% CI -3.453--0.457, P=0.011), SCWT-C ( B=0.298, 95% CI 0.112-0.484, P=0.002), SCWT-T ( B=-1.371, 95% CI -2.303--0.439, P=0.004). Conclusions:Hemodialysis induces acute CBF reductions detectable by TCD. Cumulative intradialytic CBF fluctuations may accelerate cognitive deterioration in middle-aged and elderly MHD populations, particularly affecting memory and executive domains.

Objective:To comprehensively evaluate treatment outcomes and assisted reproductive approaches in infertility patients with CYP17A1-deficient congenital adrenal hyperplasia [including 17α-hydroxylase/17,20-lyase deficiency (17-OHD) and isolated 17,20-lyase deficiency (IDL)]. Methods:In this study, PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, Ovid, CNKI, Wanfang Data base, and the Chinese Biomedical Literature Database were systematically searched. The data extracted included basic patient information, treatment plans, and pregnancy outcomes, which were then analyzed descriptively.Results:Totally 19 articles were included, covering 23 cases of successful live births. Among the 23 patients with successful live births, there were 19 patients with 17-OHD, including 17 cases became pregnant through in vitro fertilization and embryo transfer (IVF-ET), 1 case through natural pregnancy, and 1 case through oocyte donation pregnancy; there were 4 cases with IDL, including 2 cases through natural pregnancy and 2 cases through IVF-ET pregnancy. Conclusion:IVF-ET is the preferred fertility treatment option for patients with partial form of 17-OHD. For IDL patients who have natural ovulation, natural pregnancy can be attempted. Glucocorticoids play a crucial role in improving pregnancy outcomes, but their use needs to be individualized.

With the deepening understanding of the pathogenesis of psoriasis, small-molecule drugs targeting the key Janus kinase (JAK) -tyrosine kinase (TYK) 2 pathway have gained increasing interest. TYK2-related pathways play an important role in the pathogenesis of psoriasis, while they are not involved in modulating broad biological effects, making them one of the potential therapeutic targets for the efficient and safe treatment of psoriasis. How to improve the selectivity and specificity of TYK2 inhibitors to minimize adverse reactions associated with the inhibition of other pathways has been one of the key directions for development of drugs targeting TYK2 in recent years. This review summarizes the role of TYK2 pathway in the pathogenesis of psoriasis, the modes of action of TYK2 inhibitors (competitive or allosteric inhibition), and the latest clinical research progress.

A porous composite scaffold is prepared through freeze-drying method using sodium alginate as the matrix and calcium citrate double salt as the functional enhancer.To thoroughly investigate the structure and properties of the composite scaffold,advanced instruments including Fourier transform infrared spectrometer,X-ray diffractometer,scanning electron microscope,and thermogravimetric analyzer are utilized for comprehensive structural characterization.Meanwhile,key properties such as porosity,mechanical performance,swelling ratio,gel fraction,and in vitro degradation rate are systematically tested and analyzed.The results show that the composite of sodium alginate and calcium citrate double salt is a physical complex.The porosity of the scaffold mainly ranges from 200 to 600 μm,and as the addition of double salt increases,the pore size firstly increases and then slightly decreases,while the pore distribution become more uneven.In terms of mechanical properties,with the gradual increase of the content of double salt in the scaffold,the mechanical properties of the scaffold are significantly improved.However,its swelling ratio and gel fraction exhibit decreasing trends.Additionally,the degradation rate of the alginate scaffold is relatively fast,while the addition of calcium citrate double salt does not significantly improve the degradation rate.This study not only provides valuable insights into the preparation and property research of porous composite scaffold composed of sodium alginate/calcium citrate double salt,but also offers important reference for their potential applications in biomedicine.
