Obesity and its related metabolic diseases have become a major global public health threat, and its rising incidence significantly increases the risk of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, diabetes and other complications. Pancreatic lipase is a key enzyme that converts food-borne lipids into triglycerides and fatty acids, and the effective inhibition of its activity has become an important strategy for the treatment of obesity. This paper discusses the screening methods of pancreatic lipase inhibitors, and summarizes and reviews the basic principles, advantages and disadvantages and application status of traditional screening methods, modern new screening methods and virtual screening methods. In view of the problems faced by the screening methods of pancreatic lipase inhibitors, future research urgently needs to move towards a collaborative innovation path of multi-technology integration, intelligent screening and complex systematization of traditional Chinese medicine, so as to open up new research paradigms.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the incidence and outcomes of vancomycin-associated acute kidney injury （VA-AKI） in critically ill patients， to analyze the independent risk factors for the development of VA-AKI and renal function outcomes in VA-AKI patients， and to evaluate the predictive performance of vancomycin treatment duration for VA-AKI occurrence， so as to provide reference for the rational and safe use of this drug.METHODS Clinical data of critically ill patients who received vancomycin during hospitalization in the intensive care unit of Zhongshan Hospital， Fudan University，from January 2022 to December 2024 were retrospectively collected. Patients were divided into the VA‑AKI group and the non‑AKI group according to the occurrence of VA‑AKI. Multivariate Logistic regression analysis was performed to screen for independent risk factors for VA‑AKI development and renal function outcomes in patients with VA‑AKI. The receiver operating characteristic （ROC） curve was used to analyze the predictive performance of vancomycin treatment duration for VA‑AKI.RESULTS A total of 1 484 patients were enrolled， among whom 287 developed VA‑AKI， with an incidence of 19.3%. The overall median time to onset was 2.5 days after vancomycin administration. Complicated hypertension， cardiac or renal insufficiency， hospital‑acquired sepsis/bacteremia， multiple organ failure， invasive mechanical ventilation during hospitalization， vancomycin treatment duration ≥10 days， and concomitant use of carbapenems or tacrolimus were independent risk factors for VA‑AKI （ P ＜0.05）. Concomitant use of vasopressors was an independent risk factor for renal function outcomes in patients with VA‑AKI （ P ＜0.05）. The area under the ROC curve （AUC） of the model using vancomycin treatment duration of predict the occurrence of VA-AKI was 0.624. At the optimal cut‑off value of 9.7 days， the sensitivity and specificity were 47.4% and 74.9%， respectively.CONCLUSIONS Critically ill patients have a relatively high incidence of VA-AKI， which mostly occurs in the early stage of vancomycin therapy. Patients with underlying cardiac-renal diseases， severe infection， requirement for mechanical ventilation， prolonged vancomycin therapy， and concomitant administration of carbapenems or tacrolimus are at high risk for VA-AKI. Concomitant vasopressor use affects renal function recovery in patients with VA-AKI. The predicted risk of acute kidney injury is higher when vancomycin treatment duration is ≥10 days.

Based on the theory of "cold qi generates turbidity" described in the Inner Canon of Yellow Emperor （《黄帝内经》）， together with the physiological characteristics of children， who are considered to have an inherent insufficiency of the lung， spleen， and kidney， and the clinical features of recurrent refractory nephrotic syndrome （RNS）， this article proposes that the pathogenesis of RNS in children is characterized by yang deficiency with internal cold， turbidity arising from cold， latent turbidity transforming into toxin， activation by newly contracted pathogens， and turbid toxins damaging the collaterals. The core pathogenesis is identified as yang deficiency， turbidity coagulation， and collateral damage. Accordingly， the general treatment principle is warming yang and eliminating turbidity， with coordination of three methods including warming yang to strengthen the body's foundation， promoting yang to relieve constraint， and raising yang while replenishing qi. Zhenwu Decoction （真武汤） is employed as the basic prescription with modification according to syndrome differentiation， to achieve an effect eliminating turbidity and arresting leakage， restoring kidney function by unblocking the collaterals， and consolidating recovery to prevent relapse.

Objective:Predictive modelling of risk of cancer-related cognitive impairment (CRCI) in lung cancer patients from the perspective of precision health in nursing science.Methods:Prospectively collected lung cancers treated in the Department of Respiratory Medicine of Affiliated Nanjing Brain Hospital, Nanjing Medical University from October 2023 to April 2024 as study subjects by a convenience samphing method. Lasso regression was used to screen the characteristic variables and construct the prediction model, and the predictive ability was evaluated by the AUC of the subjects′operating characteristics; Bootstrap resampling (1 000 times) internal validation of the model; the Hosmer-Lemeshow goodness-of-fit test was performed and the calibration curve was plotted to evaluate the calibration of the model; the clinical validity of the model was evaluated by decision cure analysis (DCA).Results:A total of 142 patients with lung cancer were included, 94 males and 38 females. The incidence of CRCI in lung cancer patients was 69.7%(99/142). Lasso regression showed that age(≥65), education, tumor stage, serum albumin, and PLR were independent risk factors for CRCI (coefficients of 0.372 048 72, - 0.361 265 78, 0.068 728 00, - 0.039 940 32, 0.001 639 92 respectively). The model AUC was 0.874 (95% CI: 0.815-0.933), with a sensitivity of 0.768, and a specificity of 0.860; the H-L goodness-of-fit test showed good agreement ( χ2 = 4.51, P>0.05), and Bootstrap re-sampling internal validation showed an AUC of 0.826. Calibration curves showed good agreement and accuracy between the model predicted probabilities and the actual observed probabilities. DCA showed that the model had clinical benefit when the threshold probability was approximately>25%. Conclusions:The CRCI column-line diagram risk model constructed in this study has good predictive efficacy and can effectively predict the occurrence of CRCI in lung cancer patients.

Approximately 70% epilepsy may be associated with genetic etiology. To date, more than 2 900 genes related to epilepsy have been reported, and genotype-phenotype association in epilepsy has received increasing attention. Explaining how mutations in the same gene can lead to different diseases or phenotypes remains challenging. Sub-molecular mechanisms, including functional structural domains, amino acid substitutions, isoforms, and monoallelic/biallelic mutations, provide new perspectives for deciphering genotype-phenotype association in epilepsy. This review summarizes the role of sub-molecular mechanisms in genotype-phenotype association in epilepsy, to provide new strategies for clinical diagnosis and precise treatment of epilepsy.

Objective:To explore the prognosis of patients with gastric cancer peritoneal metastasis (PM) receiving programmed cell death-1 (PD-1) antibody therapy, and investigate the biomarkers that affect the prognosis of anti-PD-1 therapy.Methods:This restrospecific study collected the clinic-pathological data of 56 patients with peritoneal metastasis of gastric cancer who received first-line treatment in the Nanjing Drum Town Hospital from March 2020 to September 2023, among which 41 had received anti-PD-1 immunotherapy and 15 hadn't. The relationship between overall survival (OS) and anti-PD-1 immunotherapy was evaluated by Kaplan-Meier analysis. The relationship between baseline peripheral blood indicators and treatment response of patients with anti-PD-1 treatment was analyzed using unpaired t-test. Subsequently, the Cox proportional risk regression model was used to explore the clinical prognostic factors that may affect anti-PD-1 immunotherapy by univariate and multivariate analysis. The clinical prognostic factors included baseline data and baseline peripheral blood indexes such as anti-PD-1 treatment lines, Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status (ECOG PS), combined positive score (CPS), expression of human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (Her-2), EBER status, pathological types, other metastatic lesions, ascites content before immunotherapy, with or without abdominal drainage during anti-PD-1 treatment, blood lipid indicators, inflammatory indicators, and tumor indicators. Results:Kaplan-Meier survival statistics showed similar OS (15.9 vs. 15.2 months, P=0.600) in patients with anti-PD-1 therapy compared to those without anti-PD-1 therapy. Patients with baseline high-density lipoprotein (HDL) ≥0.97 mmol/L ( n=22) demonstrated a significantly longer median OS compared to those with HDL＜0.97 mmol/L (15.2 vs. 13.5 months; P=0.018). Similarly, the cohort with apolipoprotein A1 (ApoA1) levels ≥0.86 g/L ( n=21) showed superior survival outcomes, with a median OS of 17.7 months versus 12.3 months in the ApoA1＜0.86 g/L group ( n=20; P=0.006). In contrast, elevated baseline alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) levels ( n=2) were associated with markedly reduced survival (median OS: 5.7 vs. 15.2 months in normal AFP group, n=37; P=0.005). Notably, elevated pretreatment ApoA1 levels correlated with enhanced immunotherapy response ( P=0.017). Multivariate Cox regression analysis revealed that ApoA1 deficiency (≥0.86 g/L) independently predicted better OS following PD-1 antibody therapy ( HR=0.35, 95% CI: 0.12-0.98, P=0.046) in gastric cancer patients with PM. Conclusions:In our study, it is first proposed that ApoA1 could be a significant predictor of the survival advantages of immunotherapy in gastric cancer patients with PM.

McCune-Albright syndrome(MAS) is a postzygotic somatic mutation disorder caused by activating mutations in the GNAS gene, which encodes the α subunit of the stimulatory G protein. Its clinical features typically include polyostotic fibrous dysplasia, cafe-au-lait skin pigmentation, and endocrine hyperactivity, such as Cushing′s syndrome, hyperthyroidism, and growth hormone excess. Here, we report two rare cases of MAS complicated with adrenocorticotropic hormone(ACTH)-independent Cushing syndrome, and provide a review and analysis of previously reported MAS cases associated with Cushing′s syndrome.

The clinical diagnosis of serious mental illnesses (SMI) has long been constrained by the limitations of traditional symptomatic criteria and the absence of objective biological markers. Exosomes, serving as natural nanocarriers capable of crossing the blood-brain barrier, along with the miRNAs they carry, offer novel molecular markers for the precise diagnosis of SMI. This article summarizes recent research advances on exosomes in schizophrenia, schizoaffective disorder, bipolar disorder, and major depressive disorder, exploring the potential mechanisms by which they participate in the regulation of neuroinflammation and synaptic dysfunction through the delivery of miRNA molecules. Although the specific origins and monitoring of exosomes require further investigation, their value in assisting the diagnosis of psychiatric disorders is increasingly being recognized, holding promise for providing more objective references for clinical practice in the future.
