Traditional treatment for type 1 diabetes mellitus （T1DM） primarily involves insulin replacement， yet some patients encounter issues such as significant blood glucose fluctuations， high risk of hypoglycemia， and weight gain. In recent years， the adjuvant therapeutic role of non-insulin hypoglycemic drugs in T1DM has gradually gained attention. This article reviews the mechanisms of action and clinical research progress of five types of non-insulin hypoglycemic drugs in the treatment of T1DM： amylin analogues （pramlintide）， biguanides （metformin）， sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 inhibitor， dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitor， and glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist. It is found that these drugs can enhance clinical benefits for T1DM patients by improving insulin sensitivity， delaying gastric emptying， promoting urinary glucose excretion， and regulating incretin levels， thereby reducing glycated hemoglobin levels， decreasing insulin dosage， and managing body weight. Simultaneously， these drugs also present limitations such as low patient compliance due to complex dosing regimens， increased risk of diabetic ketoacidosis， and heterogeneity in glycemic control. Future research could focus on developing individualized treatment strategies， combining pharmacogenomics with novel biomarkers to precisely identify subpopulations of patients who may benefit， and delving into the potential value of these drugs in delaying diabetic vascular complications and improving patients’ quality of life.

ObjectiveTo analyze the phylogroups of Klebsiella pneumoniae isolates from laboratory rats and mice housed at the Laboratory Animal Center Fudan University, optimize the identification method for Klebsiella pneumoniae, and perform virulence genes detection and antimicrobial susceptibility testing, thereby providing a practical basis for microbial detection strategies and prevention and control measures in laboratory animal facilities. MethodsBetween September 2023 and September 2025, ileocecal contents were collected from laboratory rats and mice purchased from laboratory animal suppliers, from which 11 strains of Klebsiella pneumoniae were isolated and cryopreserved. These strains were tested for β-lactamase genes using multiplex PCR for phylogrouping. Furthermore, representative strains from different phylogroups were selected for biochemical tests, mass spectrometry analysis, 16S rRNA gene and tyrB gene sequencing, as well as virulence genes detection and antimicrobial susceptibility testing. ResultsMultiplex PCR detection of β-lactamase genes revealed that among 11 strains, 4 were identified as Klebsiella pneumoniae (Kp1), 4 as Klebsiella quasipneumoniae (Kp2), and 3 as Klebsiella variicola (Kp3). Kp1-Kp3 could not be differentiated using biochemical tests, mass spectrometry analysis, or 16S rRNA gene sequencing, whereas multiplex PCR of β-lactamase genes and tyrB gene sequencing enabled phylogrouping of all three. There were differences in the detection rates of capsular genes (capsule associated gene G and magnesium transport system ATP-binding protein A) and siderophore genes (Klebsiella pneumoniae iron uptake system genes) among Kp1-Kp3; susceptibility to different antibiotics also varied considerably. ConclusionKlebsiella pneumoniae phylogroups isolated from commercially produced laboratory rats and mice are similar to those in human clinical samples and likewise include multiple phylogroups of the species complex. In this study, the identification methods of Kp1-Kp3 were optimized,furthermore selected virulence genes and antimicrobial resistance in Kp1-Kp3 were preliminarily investigated, which could provide precise reference for the treatment of infections caused by different phylogroups occurring in laboratory animal facilities.

Patients with lung cancer experience a heavy symptom burden during the perioperative period, which seriously affects their recovery and quality of life. Traditional symptom management models rely mainly on scheduled ward rounds during hospitalization and outpatient follow-up after discharge. However, they have limitations such as delayed symptom recognition, lack of post-discharge monitoring, and non-quantitative symptom assessment, which often lead to delayed interventions and low patient satisfaction. In recent years, the symptom management model based on electronic patient-reported outcomes (ePRO) has been increasingly valued in clinical practice. Existing high-level evidence from both domestic and international studies indicates that, through proactive monitoring, real-time alerts, and remote interventions, this model enables dynamic and continuous symptom management and helps improve patient recovery and healthcare experience. As a supplement to routine medical care, the ePRO-based symptom management model aims to enhance the quality of care rather than replace existing medical processes. To promote the standardized application of this model in perioperative lung cancer care, this consensus integrates domestic and international evidence. After multiple rounds of voting by more than 50 experts, it formulates 12 consensus statements covering the three core components, symptom monitoring, alerting, and intervention, to provide scientific and practical recommendations for clinical practice.

Objective To understand the distribution, species composition, seasonal fluctuations, and presence of Dabie bandavirus in ticks in Tai'an City, providing a basis for assessing tick-borne disease risks and formulating prevention strategies. Methods Free-living ticks were monitored using the flagging method, whereas parasitic ticks were monitored through host surface examination. Reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) was used to detect the presence of Bandavirus dabieense in tick specimens. Results The density of free-living ticks in Tai'an City showed a continuous decreasing trend over the 3 years from 2021 to 2023, with an average tick density of 0.43 ticks/(flag·100 m). The dominant habitats were scenic areas and forests, and the seasonal fluctuations exhibited a bimodal pattern, peaking in March and August. The only free-living tick species captured was Haemaphysalis longicornis. Over the 3 years, the average tick index for parasitic ticks was 1.85, with sheep as the primary host. Seasonal fluctuations also followed a bimodal pattern, peaking in March and August. The primary parasitic tick species captured were H. longicornis and Rhipicephalus sanguineus. No Dabie bandavirus was detected in the tick specimens. Conclusions Tick density in Tai'an City remains relatively high, necessitating continued efforts to enhance tick surveillance and implement targeted prevention measures in rural environments to further reduce the health risks posed by tick-borne diseases.

Cancer incidence in China has been rising steadily,with a particularly heavy burden from several high-prevalence malignancies.Medical examination for cancer plays a critical role in the early detection of cancer,precancerous lesions,and precursor conditions,thereby facilitating timely diagnosis and intervention.Such examination also addresses the growing demand for person-alized cancer screening services among diverse population groups.The development of evidence-based,context-specific cancer screening guidelines is essential to enhance the standardization,quality,and equity of preventive screening practices across the country,ultimately improving out-comes in early cancer detection and treatment.Guided by the Department of Medical Emergency Response of the National Health Commission,the Guidelines for Medical Examination for Cancer in Health Examination Agency(2025 Edition)were developed under the leadership of the National Cancer Center.A multidisciplinary panel of experts formulated the guidelines in accordance with the principles and methodology of the World Health Organization Handbook for Guideline Deve-lopment.The guidelines provide evidence-based recommendations on key clinical domains:target cancers and populations,overall screening workflow,screening protocols,diagnostic technolo-gies,result interpretation,follow-up procedures,and quality control.The primary objective is to standardize cancer screening practices in health examination agency and strengthen China's ca-pacity for prevention and control of high-burden cancers.

Objective To explore the antimicrobial activity of the bacteriocin(tentatively named garvicin LG6)se-creted by Lactococcus garvieae(L.garvieae)SHAMU-LG6 against Staphylococcus aureus(S.aureus)of different hemolytic phenotypes.Methods S.aureus isolated from clinical patients in a hospital of Anhui from 2021 to 2023 were collected.The hemolytic phenotypes of S.aureus were detected by three-point inoculation method.S.aureus of different hemolytic phenotypes were further categorized into methicillin-sensitive S.aureus(MSSA)and methi-cillin-resistant S.aureus(MRSA)according to antimicrobial susceptibility testing results.The antagonistic activity of L.garvieae SHAMU-LG6 against S.aureus of different hemolytic phenotypes was assayed by Oxford cup me-thod.The whole-genome sequencing of L.garvieae SHAMU-LG6 was performed.Biosynthetic gene cluster of gar-vicin LG6 was searched by online databases antiSMASH 7.0 and BAGEL4.Through macroporous resin adsorption,ethanol gradient elution,rotary evaporation,and dried material reconstitution,antimicrobial activity of garvicin LG6 crude extract against S.aureus was detected by the inhibitory testing of Oxford cup method.Results L.garvieae SHAMU-LG6 could significantly antagonize MSSA and MRSA of different hemolytic phenotypes.Biosynthetic gene cluster of garvicin LG6 was present on the chromosomal genome of L.garvieae SHAMU-LG6.The antimicrobial activity of garvicin LG6 secreted by a single colony or 6 mL fermentation fluid of L.garvieae SHAMU-LG6 were at least equal to that of antibiotic disc of 30 pg cefoxitin.Conclusion Garvicin LG6 can efficiently kill MSSA and MR-SA of different hemolytic phenotypes,and has the potential to be developed into a novel antimicrobial agent,which has great prospects for clinical application.

The evolution of acupuncture anesthesia (AA) has spanned six decades. Cardiothoracic surgery serves as a representative case study to illustrate this evolution. Reflecting on its historical development, the use of AA in cardiothoracic surgery has advanced from basic AA procedures in the 1960s to combined acupuncture and drug anesthesia techniques in the early 1980s. Since 2005, the innovative use of non-intubation AA combined anesthesia has been implemented extensively in cardiothoracic surgery. As the medical industry continues to evolve, the techniques applied in AA have expanded to encompass the entire perioperative period in cardiothoracic surgery, leading to the introduction of the concept of modern AA. The use of AA in cardiothoracic surgery exemplifies the ongoing advances and integration of traditional Chinese and Western medicine. Moving forward, it is imperative to enhance the theoretical framework of AA through the execution of rigorous multicenter clinical trials, to further strengthen the body of evidence supporting evidence-based medicine, and to finally explore the underlying mechanisms of AA.
