Tumor lineage plasticity (LP) is an emerging hallmark of cancer progression. Through pharmacologically probing the function of epigenetic regulators in prostate cancer cells and organoids, we identified bromodomain protein BRD4 as a crucial player. Integrated ChIP-seq and RNA-seq analysis of tumors revealed, for the first time, that BRD4 directly activates hundreds of genes in the LP programs which include neurogenesis, axonogenesis, EMT and stem cells and key drivers such as POU3F2 (BRN2), ASCL1/2, NeuroD1, SOX2/9, RUNX1/2 and DLL3. Interestingly, BRD4 genome occupancy is reprogrammed by anti-AR drugs from facilitating AR function in CRPC cells to activating the LP programs and is facilitated by pioneer factor FOXA1. Significantly, we demonstrated that BRD4 inhibitor AZD5153, currently at clinical development, possesses potent activities in complete blockade of tumor growth of both de novo neuroendocrine prostate cancer (NEPC) and treatment-induced NEPC PDXs and that suppression of tumor expression of LP programs through reduction of local chromatin accessibility is the primary mechanism of action (MOA) by AZD5153. Together, our study revealed that BRD4 plays a fundamental role in direct activation of tumor LP programs and that its inhibitor AZD5153 is highly promising in effective treatment of the lethal forms of the diseases.

Paraplegia caused by spinal cord injury is a serious neurological complication, for which surgery is currently the main treatment method. Due to different surgical approaches, patients are usually expected to maintain a passive prone position for a long time or switch between the supine and prone positions. Affected by multiple factors such as neurogenic sensory disorders, pathological changes in muscle tone and operative duration, the risk of intraoperative acquired pressure injury (IAPI) is significantly increased. Current clinical prevention strategies for IAPI in these patients predominantly focus on localized pressure relief during positioning, lacking systematic, standardized comprehensive prevention protocols or evidence-based guidelines. To address it, Department of Nursing, Orthopedics Branch, China International Exchange and Promotive Association for Medical and Health Care, Spinal Trauma Professional Committee, Orthopedics Branch, Chinese Medical Doctor Association, Nursing Group of Spine and Spinal Cord Professional Committee of Chinese Association of Rehabilitation Medicine organized experts in relevant fields to formulate Guideline for the prevention of intraoperative acquired pressure injury in paraplegic patients with spinal cord injury ( version 2025), based on evidence-based medical evidence and latest research results and clinical practice at home and abroad. Eleven recommendations were put forward from the aspects of preoperative risk assessment, intraoperative prevention strategies, postoperative handover and monitoring, and supportive mechanisms for IAPI prevention, aiming to standardize the prevention measures and management strategies of IAPI in paraplegic patients with spinal cord injury and accelerate the recovery of patients and improve the therapeutic effect.

Objective:To compare the application effects of the solution-focused nursing model (SFNM) and conventional care in the perioperative care for patients with pelvic fractures.Methods:A retrospective cohort study was conducted to analyze the clinical data of 62 patients with pelvic fractures admitted to the Third Affiliated Hospital of Southern Medical University between February 2023 and July 2023, including 41 males and 21 females, aged 26-63 years [(44.1±15.7)years]. All the patients underwent open or closed reduction and internal fixation. According to different perioperative nursing intervention, 31 patients were treated with conventional care (conventional care group) and 31 with SFNM intervention based on conventional care (SFNM group). A comparative analysis was conducted between the two groups regarding general self-efficacy scale (GSES) score, Barthel index (BI) score, self-rating anxiety scale (SAS) score, and self-rating depression scale (SDS) score preoperatively, at discharge, and at 6 months postoperatively. The excellent-to-good rate of Majeed pelvic function score and nursing satisfaction at the final follow-up and perioperative complication incidence were compared between the two group.Results:All the patients were followed up for 12-15 months [(13.5±0.9)months]. No significant differences were observed between the two groups in GSES, BI, SAS or SDS scores ( P>0.05). At discharge, the GSES and BI scores in the SFNM group were (29.0±3.8)points and (37.4±8.7)points, significantly higher than (20.9±3.0)points and (31.5±12.1)points in the conventional care group ( P<0.05); the SAS and SDS scores were (41.9±5.1)points and (40.6±4.9)points in the SFNM group, significantly lower than (53.7±9.1)points and (42.9±7.5)points in the conventional care group ( P<0.01). At 6 months postoperatively, the SFNM group achieved GSES and BI scores of (34.0±4.0)points and (40.3±9.0)points, significantly higher than (25.2±3.7)points and (35.7±10.5)points in the conventional care group ( P<0.05); the SAS and SDS scores were (45.8±5.0)points and (38.2±3.0)points in the SFNM group, significantly lower than (50.0±8.5)points and (40.7±6.5)points in the conventional care group ( P<0.01). At the final follow-up, the excellent-to-good rate of Majeed pelvic function score was 90% (28/31) in the SFNM group and 87% (27/31) in the conventional care group ( P>0.05). At the final follow-up, nursing satisfaction rate was 100% (31/31) in the SFNM group, significantly higher than 77% (24/31) in the conventional care group ( P<0.05). The perioperative complication rate was 6% (2/31) in the SFNM group, significantly lower than 38% (12/31) in the conventional care group ( P<0.05). Conclusion:Compared with conventional care, perioperative intervention with SFNM for patients with pelvic fractures can enhance self-efficacy and daily living self-care ability, reduce negative emotions such as anxiety and depression, improve nursing satisfaction, and lower the incidence of complications, making it worthy of clinical promotion.

Objective:To analyze the clinical efficacy of laparoscopic common bile duct exploration and stone removal via the cystic duct with a flexible ureteroscope.Methods:The clinical data of 96 patients with cholecystolithiasis and choledocholithiasis who were admitted to the Department of Hepatobiliary Surgery, the Third Hospital of Nanchang from September 2021 to November 2024 were retrospectively analyzed. There were 49 male and 47 female patients, aged (59.2±13.9) years. The 96 patients were randomly divided into two groups according to the surgical methods: the flexible ureteroscope group ( n=48) and the choledochotomy group ( n=48), patients who underwent laparoscopic cholecystectomy plus flexible ureteroscope for common bile duct exploration and stone removal via the cystic duct were included in the flexible ureteroscope group; patients who underwent laparoscopic cholecystectomy plus choledocholithotomy and T-tube drainage placement were included in the choledochotomy group. Clinical data including operation time, intraoperative blood loss, postoperative intestinal function recovery time, abdominal drainage tube removal time, postoperative hospital stay and postoperative complications were compared between the two groups. Results:Compared with the choledochotomy group, the operation time [150 (120, 176) min vs. 197 (165, 240) min], intraoperative blood loss [20 (10, 30) ml vs. 30 (20, 50) ml], postoperative intestinal function recovery time [2 (1, 2) d vs. 3 (2, 4) d], abdominal drainage tube removal time [6 (4, 7) d vs. 7 (6, 8) d], and postoperative hospital stay [8 (6, 9) d vs. 16 (13, 17) d] in the flexible ureteroscope group were all reduced, and the differences were statistically significant (all P<0.05). The incidence of postoperative complications in the choledochotomy group was 10.4% (5/48), compared with 2.1% (1/48) in the flexible ureteroscope group. There was no statistically significant difference ( χ2=1.60, P=0.206). Conclusion:Compared with laparoscopic choledocholithotomy plus T-tube drainage, laparoscopic common bile duct exploration and stone removal via the cystic duct with a flexible ureteroscope can shorten the hospital stay of patients with choledocholithiasis, offering a minimally invasive, safe and effective treatment method.

Objective To comprehensively evaluate the prevalence of and influencing factors for low-level viraemia(LLV)in Chinese patients receiving antiviral therapy for human immunodeficiency virus(HIV)infection through systematic review and Meta-analysis.Methods Cochrane Library,Web of Science,Embase,PubMed,China Bio-medicine(CBM),VIP,China National Knowledge Infrastructure(CNKI),and Wanfang Data were systematically retrieved.Retrieval time was from the establishment of the database to February 2024.Literatures related to the prevalence of LLV in patients receiving antiviral therapy for HIV infection were retrieved using combination of key-words and free words.Stata 16.0 software was used for Meta-analysis.Random effects model was adopted to calcu-late the combined prevalence and its 95％confidence interval.Results A total of 15 papers were included in analy-sis,involving 191 212 specimens.Meta-analysis random effects model showed that the prevalence of LLV in Chinese patients receiving antiviral therapy for HIV infection was 13.00％(95％CI:7.82％-19.24％).Subgroup analysis showed that cross-sectional studies,northern regions,males,age ≥50 years,heterosexual transmission routes,baseline CD4+T lymphocyte count＜200 cells/μL,and patients who had ever changed therapy regimens had higher LLV prevalence.Conclusion The prevalence of LLV in patients receiving antiviral therapy for HIV infection is re-latively higher.Attention should be paid to such high-risk population,and appropriate antiviral therapy schemes should be selected as early as possible.Timely intervention is necessary when LLV occurs.

Hip fracture in the elderly is characterized by high incidence, high disability rate, and high mortality and has been recognized as a public health issue threatening their health. Surgery is the preferred choice for the treatment of elderly patients with hip fracture. However, lower extremity deep venous thrombosis (DVT) has an extremely high incidence rate during the perioperative period, and may significantly increase the risk of patients′ death once it progresses to pulmonary embolism. In response to this issue, the clinical guidelines and expert consensuses all emphasize active application of comprehensive preventive measures, including basic prevention, physical prevention, and pharmacological prevention. In this prevention system, basic prevention is the basis of physical and pharmacological prevention. However,there is a lack of unified and definite recommendations for basic preventive measures in clinical practice. To this end, the Orthopedic Nursing Professional Committee of the Chinese Nursing Association and Nursing Department of the Orthopedic Branch of the China International Exchange and Promotive Association for Medical and Health Care organized relevant nursing experts to formulate Expert consensus on perioperative basic prevention for lower extremity deep venous thrombosis in elderly patients with hip fracture ( version 2024) . A total of 10 recommendations were proposed, aiming to standardize the basic preventive measures for lower extremity DVT in elderly patients with hip fractures during the perioperative period and promote their subsequent rehabilitation.
