Lung cancer constitutes the most prevalent and lethal malignant tumor in China. Approximately 85% of lung cancer diagnoses correspond to the non-small cell histological subtype [non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC)]. Despite surgery being the mainstay for early-stage disease, postoperative recurrence remains high and adjuvant chemotherapy offers limited benefit. In recent years, targeted therapy has demonstrated substantial advantages in driver mutation-positive NSCLC. To this end, the Lung Cancer Medical Education Committee of the Chinese Medical Education Association developed guidelines based on a systematic review of evidence through November 2025, using the Grading of Recommendations, Assessment, Development and Evaluations (GRADE) approach and a modified Delphi method. Focusing on epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) and anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK), and addressing ROS proto-oncogene 1 (ROS1), B-Raf proto-oncogene serine/threonine kinase (BRAF) V600E mutation, and mesenchymal-epithelial transition factor (MET) exon 14 (METex14) skipping, the guideline covers molecular testing, neoadjuvant/adjuvant therapy, perioperative strategies, minimal residual disease monitoring, and postoperative surveillance. It defines testing requirements, specifies stage-directed and subtype-specific treatments, and standardizes minimal residual disease monitoring. These recommendations emphasize precision and feasibility to improve survival and quality of life.

Postoperative infection of internal fixation of closed fractures the lower limbs in adults represents a devastating complication, characterized by diagnostic challenges, prolonged treatment duration and high disability rates. Current management of these infections faces multiple challenges, such as difficulties in early accurate diagnosis, and various controversies about the treatment plan, leading to poor overall diagnosis and treatment results. To address these issues, based on evidence-based medicine and principles with emphasis on scientific rigor, clinical applicability and innovation, the Trauma Branch of the Chinese Medical Association, Orthopedic Branch of the Chinese Medical Doctor Association, Orthopedics Branch of the Chinese Medical Association, and Trauma Orthopedics and Polytrauma Group of the Resuscitation and Emergency Committee of the Chinese Medical Doctor Association have collaboratively organized a panel of relevant experts to develop the Guideline for diagnosis and treatment of infection after internal fixation of closed lower limb fractures in adults ( version 2025). The guideline proposed 10 recommendations, aiming to provide a foundation for standardized diagnosis and treatment of postoperative infection in adults with closed lower limb fractures.

Alzheimer's disease(AD)presents a notable gender disparity in prevalence among elderly individuals, with elderly women being a high-risk group for AD onset.Researches have confirmed the effects of estrogen on the nervous system and cognitive function through in vitro and animal models.Throughout their reproductive years, women undergo various life events such as menarche, menopause, pregnancy, childbirth, miscarriage, relevant surgeries, and medication, all of which can impact their endocrine status and subsequently influence brain function.As a result, there is a growing body of epidemiological evidence investigating the relationship between women's menstrual and reproductive factors and AD.Despite some controversies, this article offers a thorough review of current epidemiological research on the link between different menstrual and fertility factors in women and AD.

Body weight abnormalities, including overweight, obesity, and underweight, have become a dual public health challenge in Chinese adults: overweight and obesity lead to a variety of chronic complications, while underweight increases the risks of malnutrition, sarcopenia, and organ dysfunction. To systematically address these issues, multidisciplinary experts in endocrinology, sports science, nutrition, and psychiatry from various regions have held multiple weight management seminars. Based on the latest epidemiological data and clinical evidence, they expanded the guideline to include assessment and intervention strategies for underweight, in addition to the core content of obesity management. This guideline outlines the etiological mechanisms, evaluation methods, and multidimensional management strategies for overweight and obesity, covering key areas such as diagnosis and assessment, medical nutrition therapy, exercise prescription, pharmacological intervention, and psychological support. It is intended to provide a scientific and standardized approach to weight management across the adult population, aiming to curb the rising prevalence of obesity, mitigate complications associated with abnormal body weight, and improve nutritional status and overall quality of life.

Objective:To evaluate the prognostic value of droplet digital PCR(ddPCR)in conjunction with multiparametric flow cytometry(MFC)for measurable residual disease(MRD)detection in predicting relapse risk in patients with acute myeloid leukemia(AML).Methods:In this retrospective cohort study,we have analyzed 78 newly diagnosed patients with AML who underwent combined MRD monitoring using MFC and ddPCR at The Affiliated Hospital of Hebei University(January 2018-January 2025).Clinical outcomes-including MRD negativity rates,cumulative incidence of relapse(CIR),relapse-free survival(RFS),and overall survival(OS)-were systematically evaluated.Prognostic discrim-ination between the MRD-negative and MRD-positive subgroups was compared across standalone and combined detection approaches.Results:With a median follow-up of 17 months(range:2.4-86.7)and a median of one mutation tracked per patient(range:1-3),both MFC-MRD and ddPCR-MRD negative subgroups demonstrated superior 2-year RFS compared with MRD-positive counterparts.Notably,com-bined MFC/ddPCR monitoring enhanced prognostic discrimination,with MRD-negative patients achieving significantly prolonged 2-year RFS compared with MRD-positive patients.MFC-MRD negativity independently predicted improved 2-year OS.Conclusion:ddPCR-based multi-gene MRD profiling provides significant independent prognostic value in patients with AML.The synergistic application of MFC and ddPCR enables superior predictive accuracy for relapse risk and survival outcomes,supporting its integration into standardized MRD monitoring protocols.

Objective To observe the therapeutic effects and mechanisms of acupuncture at"Yanglingquan"(GB34)and"Zusanli"(ST36)on knee osteoarthritis(KOA)rats,focusing on the regulation of PTEN-induced kinase 1/Parkin(PINK1/Parkin)-mediated mitophagy in chondrocytes.Methods Ten out of 40 male SD rats were randomly selected as the normal group,and the remaining 30 rats were used to construct a KOA model.A total of 27 rats were successfully modeled.The successfully modeled rats were randomly divided into a model group,an acupuncture group(acupuncture at Yanglingquan and Zusanli),and an acupuncture+autophagy inhibitor(3-MA)group(acupuncture at Yanglingquan and Zusanli combined with intraperitoneal injection of 3-MA),with 9 rats in each group.After intervention,the morphology of cartilage tissue in each group was observed,and the Mankin's score of cartilage was assessed.The apoptosis rate of chondrocytes was calculated.Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA)was used to detect inflammatory factors[cyclooxygenase 2(COX-2),interleukin 1β(IL-1β),and tumor necrosis factor α(TNF-α)],oxidative damage indicators[nitric oxide(NO),superoxide dismutase(SOD),malondialdehyde(MDA),and glutathione peroxidase(GSH-Px)],and the levels of matrix metalloproteinase 3(MMP-3)and tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase 1(TIMP-1).The DHE probe was used to measure reactive oxygen species(ROS)level.Polymerase chain reaction(PCR)was used to detect the mRNA expression levels of PTEN-induced kinase 1(PINK1),Parkin,and microtubule-associated protein 1 light chain 3-Ⅱ(LC3-Ⅱ)in cartilage tissue.Western blot was used to measure the protein expression levels of PINK1,Parkin,and LC3-Ⅱ in cartilage tissue.Results Compared with the normal group,the model group showed increased Mankin's score,apoptosis rate,COX-2 level,IL-1β and TNF-α levels,NO and MDA levels,MMP-3 and TIMP-1 levels,and ROS content,as well as decreased SOD and GSH-Px levels,and reduced mRNA and protein expressions of PINK1,Parkin and LC3-Ⅱ,with statistically significant differences(P＜0.05).Compared with the model group,the acupuncture group showed decreased Mankin's score,apoptosis rate,COX-2 level,IL-1β and TNF-α levels,NO and MDA levels,MMP-3 and TIMP-1 levels,and ROS content,as well as increased SOD and GSH-Px levels,and elevated mRNA and protein expressions of PINK1,Parkin and LC3-Ⅱ,with statistically significant differences(P＜0.05).Compared with the acupuncture group,the acupuncture+3-MA group showed increased Mankin's score,apoptosis rate,COX-2 level,IL-1β and TNF-α levels,NO and MDA levels,MMP-3 and TIMP-1 levels,and ROS content,as well as decreased SOD and GSH-Px levels,and mRNA and protein expressions of PINK1,Parkin and LC3-Ⅱ,with statistically significant differences(P＜0.05).Conclusion Acupuncture at"Yanglingquan"and"Zusanli"can inhibit chondrocyte apoptosis by activating PINK1/Parkin-mediated mitophagy,thus improving the condition of KOA rats.

By aggregating the essence of theories related with depressive syndrome from historical medical practitioners and based on the extensive clinical experience,traditional Chinese medicine(TCM)master Lin Yi proposed the theory of six-stagnation-based breast disease prevention and treatment.She pointed out that the occurrence of breast diseases is related to six stagnations(qi stagnancy,blood stagnancy,phlegm stagnancy,dampness stagnancy,food stagnancy,and fire stagnancy),and the treatment for breast diseases should start from the six stagnations.The development and progression of breast cancer is closely associated with the imbalance of internal environment and the formation of six stagnations,and breast cancer is one of the major diseases suitable for the TCM syndrome differentiation and treatment.For the treatment of early breast cancer,Professor Lin Yi proposed to divide early breast cancer into four stages,namely perioperative period,peri-chemotherapy period,peri-radiotherapy period,and consolidation period.Guided by the theory of six-stagnation-based breast disease prevention and treatment,therapies of soothing the liver,resolving phlegm,removing stasis,clearing heat,eliminating dampness,promoting digestion,fortifying the spleen,and tonifying the kidney are employed to harmonize the internal environment and alleviate symptoms.The theory of six-stagnation-based breast disease prevention and treatment enriches the TCM theory for the prevention and treatment of breast cancer,refines the principles and methods for the staging and syndrome differentiation of early breast cancer,and holds significant implications for enhancing the efficacy of integrated TCM and western medicine in managing early breast cancer.

Objective To analyze the gene expression characteristics of chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps(CRSwNP)using bioinformatics methods,aim to investigate the potential biomarkers and their diagnostic value of CRSwNP.Methods(1)The CRSwNP Gene expression data set was downloaded from the American Gene Expression Omnibus(GEO)database.The differentially expressed genes(DEGs)between CRSwNP patients and healthy controls were screened through data analysis.Gene Ontology(GO)functional enrichment and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes(KEGG)pathway analysis were performed on the identified DEGs.Protein-protein interaction(PPI)networks were constructed utilizing the STRING database,and the key genes were identified by using the cytoHubba plugin.The"Cibersort"package was used to analyze the influence of key genes on common immune cells.(2)Thirty-two patients diagnosed with CRSwNP in the First Affiliated Hospital of Hebei North University from June 2022 to June 2023 were selected as the CRSwNP group,and 21 patients with simple deviation of nasal septum without a history of sinusitis during the same period were selected as control group.The pathological characteristics of specimens in the two groups were examined using hematoxylin-eosin(HE)staining.Immunohistochemistry and Western blotting were used to detect the expression levels of key genes in CRSwNP.The levels of key proteins in plasma were detected using ELISA,and ROC curve was used to analyze its efficacy in diagnosing CRSwNP.Results(1)Analysis of three gene expression database sets(GSE36830,GSE23552,and GSE194282)showed that there were 156 DEGs in CRSwNP.GO functional enrichment and KEGG pathway analysis indicated that the functions of the above DEGs were mostly related to immune functions.Key genes such as cytochrome b-245 β chain(CYBB)and colony-stimulating factor 1 receptor(CSF1R)were identified.(2)The results of HE staining revealed that the epithelial of CRSwNP tissue was metaplastic into stratified squamous epithelium with interstitial edema.Both immunohistochemistry and Western blotting analyses indicated that the expression levels of CYBB and CSF1R in the CRSwNP group were significantly increased compared to control group(P＜0.05).ELISA results demonstrated that CYBB[(21.20±3.00)μg/ml vs.(17.66±1.66)μg/ml,P＜0.05]and CSF1[(477.37±86.63)pg/ml vs.(370.71±66.24)pg/ml,P＜0.05]in CRSwNP group were significantly increased compare to control group.ROC curve analysis showed that plasma concentrations of CYBB and CSF1 had AUCs of 0.888(95%CI 0.802-0.974)and 0.821(95%CI 0.711-0.931)for diagnosing of CRSwNP,respectively;their combined AUC was 0.927(95%CI 0.851-1.000).Conclusions CYBB and CSF1R may be involved in the occurrence and development of CRSwNP.Plasma CYBB and CSF1 have high diagnostic value for CRSwNP.

Objective To analyze the characteristics and risk factors associated with postoperative deep vein thrombosis(DVT)of the lower extremities in patients undergoing surgery for lumbar degenerative diseases.Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on clinical data from 298 patients who were hospitalized for lumbar degenerative diseases and underwent lumbar spine surgery treatment in the First Affiliated Hospital of Nanchang University from October 1,2022 to April 15,2023.Patients were divided into DVT group(n=71)and non-DVT group(n=227)according to whether DVT of the lower limbs occurred within 1 week postoperatively.The incidence and distribution characteristics of postoperative DVT were analyzed.Univariate and binary logistic regression analyses were performed to identify risk factors for DVT,and receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curves were used to determine cut-off values for relevant risk factors.Results A total of 298 patients were included,among whom 159 were males(53.4%)and 139 were females(46.6%),with an average age of(64.5±9.8)years.DVT occurred in 71 patients,and the incidence of lower extremity DVT was 23.8%.In the DVT group,there were 49 cases(69.0%)of intermuscular vein thrombosis,and 22 cases of other types of thrombosis(7 cases of peroneal vein thrombosis,4 cases of posterior tibial vein thrombosis,3 cases of common femoral vein thrombosis,1 case of anterior tibial vein thrombosis,and 7 cases of multiple thrombosis);58 cases(81.7%)had DVT in one lower extremity,and 13 cases(18.3%)had DVT in both lower extremities.Univariate analysis results showed that age,body mass index(BMI),length of hospital stay,history of hypertension,operative time,and intraoperative blood loss were associated with the occurrence of lower extremity DVT after surgery for lumbar degenerative diseases(P<0.05).Binary logistic regression analysis results indicated that older age(OR=1.079,P<0.01),higher BMI(OR=1.130,P=0.01),history of hypertension(OR=2.992,P<0.01),and larger intraoperative blood loss(OR=1.002,P=0.03)were independent risk factors for the occurrence of lower extremity DVT.ROC curve analysis demonstrated that patients with age>58.5 years,BMI>24.01 kg/m2,history of hypertension,and intraoperative blood loss>550 ml had a significantly increased risk of postoperative lower limb DVT.Conclusions The incidence of lower extremity DVT after surgery for lumbar degenerative disease is high,and intermuscular venous thrombosis is more common.Older age,higher BMI,history of hypertension,and larger intraoperative blood loss are independent risk factors for the occurrence of lower extremity DVT after surgery.

Objective The study aims to investigate the impact of microRNA-874-3p(miR-874-3p)regulation of plakophilin 3(PKP3)on the malignant biological behavior of lung adenocarcinoma cells and its underlying mechanism.Methods Immunohistochemistry and immunocytochemistry were used to detect the expression of PKP3 in lung adenocarcinoma tissue microarray and lung adenocarcinoma cell line A549 cells respectively,and the relationship between PKP3 and clinicopathological features of lung adenocarcinoma patients was analyzed.Select lung adenocarcinoma cell line A549,the experiment was divided into A549 cell group(blank control group),miR-NC group(transfected with miR-NC)and miR-mimics group(transfected with miR-874-3p mimics),sh-NC group(control group transfected with PKP3 silencing plasmid),sh-PKP3 group(transfected with PKP3 silencing plasmid),miR+pcDNA-PKP3 group(transfected with miR-874-3P mimics+pcDNA-PKP3,rescue group)and miR+pcDNA-NC group(transfected with miR-874-3p mimics+pcDNA-NC).The proliferation,invasion,migration and apoptosis of cells in each group were detected.ENCORI database was used to predict the upstream gene of PKP3,and dual luciferase assay was used to detect the targeting relationship between miR-874-3p and PKP3.MAPK/mTOR pathway-related proteins were detected by Western blotting.Results The expression of PKP3 in lung adenocarcinoma tissue was significantly higher than that in adjacent tissues.The high expression of PKP3 was related to clinical stage,tumor size,and lymph node metastasis(P＜0.05).Compared with the human normal lung epithelial cells(BEAS-2B),the expression of PKP3 in A549 cells increased significantly,and the expression of miR-874-3p decreased(P＜0.05).Overexpression of miR-874-3p decreased the PKP3 expression level(P＜0.05).Compared with the control group,both overexpression of miR-874-3p and silenced PKP3 inhibited the cloning and invasion ability of A549 cells,caused cell cycle arrest,and decreased the expression levels of cyclin dependent kinase 4(CDK4),cyclin D1,cyclin E1 proteins in A549 cells(P＜0.05).The expressions of Bax protein and Caspase-3 protein were up-regulated(P＜0.05),and apoptosis increased.Overexpression of PKP3 could reverse the biological behavior of overexpression of miR-874-3p.Overexpression of miR-874-3p and silencing of PKP3 significantly decreased the expressions of P38 MAPK and mTOR phosphorylated proteins.Conclusion MiR-874-3p can negatively regulate PKP3 expression and inhibit the malignant biological behavior of A549 cells through MAPK/mTOR pathway.
