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 identify the active components of Desmodium styracifolium (Osb.) Merr. extract (DME) against cholestatic liver injury (CLI), and to verify its target and molecular mechanism, so as to provide scientific evidence for the clinical application of D.styracifolium (Osb.) Merr. and the development of new hepatoprotective agents.METHODS High-performance liquid chromatography was applied to establish fingerprints of 19 batches of DME, followed by similarity evaluation and identification of common peaks. An in vitro CLI model was constructed by lithocholic acid (LCA)-induced injury in HepG2 cells to evaluate the in vitro protective effect of DME against CLI. Spearman correlation analysis, grey relational analysis and partial least-squares regression analysis were adopted to investigate the spectrum-effect relationship of DME against CLI and preliminarily screen the core active components. Molecular docking and surface plasmon resonance technology were used to predict and verify the binding capacity between core active components and farnesoid X receptor (FXR). qRT-PCR, Western blot and immunofluorescence staining tests were performed to validate the influences of core active components on the expression of molecules related to FXR/bile salt export pump (BSEP) pathway in CLI model cells.RESULTS A total of 12 common peaks were calibrated in the fingerprints of 19 batches of DME, and the similarity values were all above 0.990. Four common peaks were identified, namely peak 6 (schaftoside), peak 7 (isoorientin), peak 11 (isoschaftoside) and peak 12 (isovitexin). DME at 80 μg/mL exerted the optimal protective effect on CLI-model cells, and the cell viability reached (75.66±4.60)% after 24 h of treatment. Spectrum-effect analysis revealed that schaftoside possessed the strongest correlation with the anti-CLI activity of DME and served as the core active component. Target prediction and validation results showed that the binding energy between schaftoside and FXR was -8.1 kcal/mol, and the equilibrium dissociation constant was 27.3 μmol/L. Mechanistic experiments demonstrated that 100 μmol/L schaftoside significantly elevated the expression levels of FXR and BSEP, and mRNA of their encoded genes Nr1h4 , Abcb11 in CLI-model cells ( P <0.05).CONCLUSIONS Schaftoside may be the core active component of DME against CLI, and its mechanism may be related to the activation of FXR/BSEP pathway.

OBJECTIVE:
To explore the changes of stress and displacement of intervertebral discs and vertebral bodies in adolescent idiopathic cervical kyphosis models caused by Wuqinxi () Huju() and extension movement after torque loading by finite element analysis.
METHODS:
One healthy male volunteer aged 24-year-old (heighted 178 cm and weighted 65 kg) was selected, software such as Mimics 21.0, Geomagic wrap 2017, SolidWorks 2017, and Ansys Workbench 17.0 were used to simulate adolescent idiopathic cervical spine model, an axial compressive load of 266 N was applied to the center of the end plate on C2 for head physical gravity simulation, the lower part of C7 vertebral body was set as the point of freedom constraint, a torque of 1.5 N·m was applied with C2 as the reference point to simulate the stress on intervertebral discs and vertebral bodies after 45° movement of Wuqinxi () Huju ().
RESULTS:
The normal C2-C7 cervical spine model and adolescent idiopathic cervical kyphosis model were successfully constructed. The maximum stress value of intervertebral disc when the Huju()was raised and extended at 45° and loaded with torque occurred in C3,4 intervertebral disc (3.588 1) MPa. The maximum stress values of each intervertebral disc were C3,4(3.588 1 MPa)>C2,3 (3.467 5 MPa) >C4,5(2.597 7 MPa) >C5,6 (2.378 8 MPa) >C6,7 (1.404 9 MPa), respectively. The maximum stress of C6 vertebral body was 5.842 9 MPa, while the stresses of C2, C3, C4, and C5 vertebral bodies was 4.184 8, 4.437 8, 4.148 7, and 2.852 4 MPa respectively. The overall stress of vertebral body was mainly concentrated in the front of vertebral body.
CONCLUSION
After long-term practice of Huju()movement, the stress concentration in intervertebral discs and the front of vertebral body changes the stress load state of intervertebral discs and vertebral body. As time goes by, intervertebral discs may change, forming a shape that is higher in the front and lower in the back. The vertebral body may also undergo remodeling, resulting in a relative increase in the height of the anterior edge of vertebral body and promoting the recovery of cervical kyphosis to a physiological lordosis state.

Cervical spine health issues not only seriously affect patients' quality of life but also impose a heavy burden on the social healthcare system. Existing guidelines lack sufficient clinical guidance on lifestyle and work habits, such as exercise, posture, daily routine, and diet, making it difficult to meet practical needs. To address this, relying on the China Association of Chinese Medicine, Wangjing Hospital of China Academy of Chinese Medical Sciences took the lead and joined hands with more than ten institutions to form a multidisciplinary guideline development group. For the first time, the group developed the Guidelines for Cervical Spine Health Intervention based on evidence-based medicine methods, strictly following the standardized procedures outlined in the World Health Organization Handbook for Guideline Development and the Guiding Principles for the Formulation/Revision of Clinical Practice Guidelines in China (2022 Edition). This proposal systematically explains the methods and steps for developing the guideline, aiming to make the guideline development process scientific, standardized, and transparent.

OBJECTIVES:
To investigate the association between insulin resistance and uterine volume in girls with idiopathic central precocious puberty (ICPP).
METHODS:
A retrospective study was conducted involving 61 girls diagnosed with ICPP who visited the pediatric growth and development clinic of the Third Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University between January 2022 and September 2024, designated as the ICPP group, and 61 normally developing girls as the control group. The differences in insulin resistance index (homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance, HOMA-IR), uterine volume, and other indicators between the two groups were compared, and the relationship between insulin resistance and uterine volume in these girls was analyzed.
RESULTS:
The uterine volume and HOMA-IR level in the ICPP group were significantly higher than those in the control group (P<0.05). Correlation analysis revealed that there was a positive correlation between HOMA-IR level and uterine volume in the ICPP group (rs=0.643, P<0.001). Multiple linear regression analysis indicated that as HOMA-IR increased,uterine volume in the girls tended to increase (P<0.05).
CONCLUSIONS
There is an association between insulin resistance and uterine volume in girls with ICPP, and as HOMA-IR increases, uterine volume in the girls also increases.

OBJECTIVES:
To investigate the chain mediating role of family care and emotional management in the relationship between social support and anxiety among rural primary school students.
METHODS:
A questionnaire survey was conducted among students in grades 4 to 6 from four counties in Hunan Province. Data were collected using the Social Support Rating Scale, Family Care Index Scale, Emotional Intelligence Scale, and Generalized Anxiety Disorder -7. Logistic regression analysis was used to explore the influencing factors of anxiety symptoms. Mediation analysis was conducted to assess the chain mediating effects of family care and emotional management between social support and anxiety.
RESULTS:
A total of 4 141 questionnaires were distributed, with 3 874 valid responses (effective response rate: 93.55%). The prevalence rate of anxiety symptoms among these students was 9.32% (95%CI: 8.40%-10.23%). Significant differences were observed in the prevalence rates of anxiety symptoms among groups with different levels of social support, family functioning, and emotional management ability (P<0.05). The total indirect effect of social support on anxiety symptoms via family care and emotional management was significant (β=-0.137, 95%CI: -0.167 to -0.109), and the direct effect of social support on anxiety symptoms remained significant (P<0.05). Family care and emotional management served as significant chain mediators in the relationship between social support and anxiety symptoms (β=-0.025,95%CI:-0.032 to -0.018), accounting for 14.5% of the total effect.
CONCLUSIONS
Social support can directly affect anxiety symptoms among rural primary school students and can also indirectly influence anxiety symptoms through the chain mediating effects of family care and emotional management. These findings provide scientific evidence for the prevention of anxiety in primary school students from multiple perspectives.

OBJECTIVES:
To study the clinical and genetic characteristics of children with congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH).
METHODS:
Clinical data, laboratory findings, and genetic test results of 63 children diagnosed with CAH at Henan Children's Hospital from January 2017 to December 2024 were retrospectively reviewed.
RESULTS:
Of the 63 patients, the mean age at the first visit was (21 ± 14) days; 29 (46%) were of male sex and 34 (54%) were of female sex. The predominant clinical manifestations were poor weight gain or weight loss (92%, 58/63), poor feeding (84%, 53/63), skin hyperpigmentation (83%, 52/63), and female external genital anomalies (100%, 34/34). Laboratory abnormalities included hyponatremia (87%, 55/63), hyperkalemia (68%, 43/63), metabolic acidosis (68%, 43/63), and markedly elevated 17-hydroxyprogesterone (92%, 58/63), testosterone (89%, 56/63), and adrenocorticotropic hormone (81%, 51/63). Among 49 patients who underwent genetic testing, CYP21A2 variants were identified in 90% (44/49), with c.293-13A/C>G (33%, 30/91) and large deletions/gene conversions (29%, 26/91) being the most frequent; STAR (8%, 4/49) and HSD3B2 (2%, 1/49) variants were also detected. Following hormone replacement therapy, electrolyte disturbances were corrected in 57 cases, with significant reductions in 17-hydroxyprogesterone, adrenocorticotropic hormone, and testosterone levels (P<0.001).
CONCLUSIONS
CAH presenting in neonates or young infants is characterized by electrolyte imbalance, external genital anomalies, and abnormal hormone levels. Genetic testing enables definitive subtype classification; in CYP21A2-related CAH, c.293-13A/C>G is a hotspot variant. These findings underscore the clinical value of genetic testing for early diagnosis and genetic counseling in CAH. Citation:Chinese Journal of Contemporary Pediatrics, 2025, 27(11): 1367-1372.

OBJECTIVE:
To analyze the efficacy and safety of decitabine-based myeloablative preconditioning regimen for allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) in patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML).
METHODS:
The clinical characteristics and efficacy of 115 AML patients who underwent allo-HSCT at the First Medical Center of Chinese PLA General Hospital from August 2018 to August 2022 were retrospectively analyzed, including 37 patients treated with decitabine conditioning regimen (decitabine group) and 78 patients without decitabine conditioning regimen (non-decitabine group). The cumulative incidence of relapse (CIR), overall survival (OS), leukemia-free survival (LFS), non-relapse mortality (NRM) and graft versus host disease (GVHD) were analyzed.
RESULTS:
For the patients in first complete remission (CR1) state before allo-HSCT, the 1-year relapse rates of decitabine group(22 cases) and non-decitabine group(69 cases) were 9.1% and 29.6%, respectively, the difference was statistically significant(P =0.042). The 1-year cumulative incidence of acute graft-versus-host disease (aGVHD) in decitabine group and non-decitabine group was 62.2% and 70.5%, respectively, and the 1-year cumulative incidence of chronic inhibitor-versus-host disease (cGVHD) was 18.9% and 14.1%, respectively, there were no significant differences in the incidence of aGVHD and cGVHD between the two groups (P >0.05). Of the 115 patients, there were no significantly differences in the 1-year CIR(21.7% vs 28.8%, P =0.866), NRM(10.9% vs 3.9%, P =0.203), OS(75.2% vs 83.8%, P =0.131) and LFS(74.6% vs 69.1%, P =0.912) between the decitabine group(37 cases) and the non-decitabine group(78 cases).
CONCLUSION
Decitabine-based conditioning regimen could reduce the relapse rate of AML CR1 patients with good safety.

Journal of Experimental Hematology 2025;33(3):666-671
OBJECTIVE:
To understand clinical and laboratory characteristics of acute myeloid leukemia, myelodysplasia-related (AML-MR).
METHODS:
Blood sample of one patient with AML-MR admitted to our hospital in September 2021 was collected and synthetically analyzed by using techniques including complete blood cell count, peripheral blood and bone marrow cell morphology, bone marrow pathology and immunohistochemistry, hematology examination, flow cytometry (FCM), chromosome karyotype analysis and molecular pathology. The clinical and laboratory characteristics of AML-MR were analyzed and summarized according to the World Health Organization (WHO) standards.
RESULTS:
The patient showed pancytopenia and increased proportion of blasts in smear of peripheral blood cells. Bone marrow cytology and pathological examination showed significant proliferation of hematopoietic cells. Pathological immunohistochemistry showed increased expression of CD61, CD34, and CD117, while MPO, CD13, and CD33 were positive. FCM showed that abnormal myeloid progenitor cells accounted for approximately 18.61% of the total number of nuclear cells, with expression of CD34, CD13, CD117, HLA-DR, and CD33 (small amount). Additionally, 36.34% of the cells were primitive/immature red blood cells which expressed CD36, CD71, and CD117 (small amount). Chromosome karyotype analysis and molecular pathology detected three kinds of abnormalities including -5 and two kinds of TP53 related gene mutation, respectively.
CONCLUSION
AML-MR patient shows pancytopenia and increased proportion of blasts in smear of peripheral blood cells. Bone marrow cytology and pathological examination show significant proliferation of hematopoietic cells. FCM can detect myeloid progenitor cells and primitive/immature red blood cells, while chromosome karyotype analysis can detect three abnormal karyotypes.

Objective: The aim of this study is to explore the predictive value of biparametric magnetic resonance imaging(bpMRI)for pelvic lymph node metastasis in prostate cancer patients with PSA≤20 μg/L and establish a nomogram. Methods: The imaging data and clinical data of 363 patients undergoing radical prostatectomy and pelvic lymph node dissection in the First Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing Medical University from July 2018 to December 2023 were retrospectively analyzed. Univariate analysis and multivariate logistic regression were used to screen independent risk factors for pelvic lymph node metastasis in prostate cancer, and a nomogram of the clinical prediction model was established. Calibration curves were drawn to evaluate the accuracy of the model. Results: Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed extrocapusular extension (OR=8.08,95%CI=2.62-24.97, P<0.01), enlargement of pelvic lymph nodes (OR=4.45,95%CI=1.16-17.11,P=0.030), and biopsy ISUP grade(OR=1.97,95%CI=1.12-3.46, P=0.018)were independent risk factors for pelvic lymph node metastasis. The C-index of the prediction model was 0.834, which indicated that the model had a good prediction ability. The actual value of the model calibration curve and the prediction probability of the model fitted well, indicating that the model had a good accuracy. Further analysis of DCA curve showed that the model had good clinical application value when the risk threshold ranged from 0.05 to 0.70.Conclusion: For prostate cancer patients with PSA≤20 μg/L, bpMRI has a good predictive value for the pelvic lymph node metastasis of prostate cancer with extrocapusular extension, enlargement of pelvic lymph nodes and ISUP grade≥4.
