Objective: To analyze changes in tuberculosis infection among junior high school students before and after tuberculosis exposure, so as to provide a reference for improving school tuberculosis prevention and control measures and policy formulation. Methods: Retrospectively collect data on a tuberculosis outbreak that occurred in a grade of a junior high school in Chongqing in 2025, including tuberculosis screening records of students in this grade upon their enrollment in 2022 (1 156 students) and after two tuberculosis outbreaks in 2023 (206 students) and 2025 (171 students). The Wilcoxon signed rank test for paired design was used to compare the induration diameters of the subjects, and the Chi square test was adopted to analyze the rate of tuberculosis infection among students. Results: In the tuberculosis outbreak in 2023, the rate of tuberculosis infection among close contacts ( 11.84 %) and the rate of tuberculosis infection among freshrman at school enrollment (12.89%) showed no statistically significant difference ( χ 2=0.25, P >0.05). The rate of tuberculosis infection of close contacts in the 2025 tuberculosis outbreak (55.56%) was higher than that in the 2023 outbreak (11.84%) ( χ 2=30.42, P <0.01). Among the 106 students included in the cohort analysis, the median induration diameter was 3.50 (1.50, 7.50) mm in 2023 and 8.75 (4.25, 11.50) mm in 2025, with a statistically significant difference ( Z=-5.76, P <0.01). There was no statistically significant difference between the infection rate in 2022 (16.98%) and that in 2023 (10.38%) ( χ 2=1.96, P =0.16). The infection rate in 2025 (43.40%) was higher than those in 2022 and 2023 ( χ 2=17.55, 29.39, both P <0.017). The seroconversion rate of students in the same class in 2025 ( 58.00 %) was higher than that of students in different classes (16.07%), with a statistically significant difference ( χ 2=20.19, P <0.01). All 72 individuals with latent tuberculosis infections identified during the pandemic in 2023 and 2025 refused to undergo prophylactic treatment. Conclusions The lack of preventive treatment may be the underlying cause of the successive outbreaks during the epidemic. Early detection of infection sources and standardized outbreak management are crucial to controlling the spread of the epidemic.

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.

UBE2O is a distinctive ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme characterized by its large size(1 292 residues)and dual E2/E3 enzymatic activities,enabling diverse ubiquitylation types.Unlike typical E2 enzymes(150～200 residues),UBE2O's multifunctionality allows it to regulate substrate degradation,subcellular localization,and functional modulation.Emerging studies highlight its critical roles in protein quality control,erythroid differentiation,metabolic regulation,and maintenance of circadian rhythm.Dysregulation of UBE2O is implicated in various diseases,including cancers,neurodegenerative disor-ders,and metabolic diseases.This review extensively discusses the unique structural features,diverse bi-ological functions,and pathological roles of UBE2O,as well as its therapeutic potential for associated dis-eases.

Cancer is the main cause of death,and drug therapy has greatly improved the effectiveness of anti-tumor treatment.However,there are problems such as high adverse reactions and the risk of developing drug resistance after long-term use.There is an urgent need to seek new drug targets.Human antigen R(HuR),as an RNA binding protein,promotes the whole process of tumor occurrence,development and metastasis through post transcriptional regulation of mRNA stability,and HuR is general-ly highly expressed in tumor tissue,making it a new target for an-ti-tumor therapy and a standard for prognosis evaluation.Tradi-tional Chinese medicine formulas and their various chemical components can inhibit tumor proliferation,induce tumor cell ap-optosis,inhibit angiogenesis,suppress immune escape,and re-verse tumor drug resistance by regulating HuR activity.This re-view summarizes the importance of HuR in regulation of tumor progression,as well as analyzes the mechanisms of the antitumor effects through active ingredients of Chinese medicine with the regulation of HuR.It is expected to provide new ideas for tumor therapy and guidance for the development of HuR-targeted anti-tumor drugs.

AIM:This study aims to investigate the mechanism by which Qingfei-Jiedu-Huatan Formula(QJHF)regulates autophagy in alveolar macrophages through mTOR in the treatment of severe pneumonia(SP)in rats.METHODS:Sixty SPF-grade male rats were randomly assigned to six groups:control,model,QJHF,moxifloxacin(MOX),rapamycin(RAPA),and QJHF+RAPA,with ten rats in each group.An SP rat model was established using Klebsiella pneumoniae.After seven days of treatment,changes in IL-33 and IFN-γ levels in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid(BALF)were measured using ELISA.Histopathological alterations in lung tissue were assessed via HE staining,and the autophagy of alveolar macrophages was detected using immunofluorescence co-localization methods.The expression levels of mTOR,beclin-1,and LC3 mRNA in lung tissue were analyzed using qPCR,while Western blot was employed to assess the protein levels of p-mTOR/mTOR,beclin-1,and LC3-II/LC3-I.RESULTS:Compared to the control group,the model group exhibited a deteriorated condition,characterized by alveolar wall rupture and thickening,significant inflammatory cell infiltration in the alveolar cavity,and extensive lung tissue damage(P<0.01).Elevated levels of IL-33 and IFN-γ in BALF were also observed(P<0.01),along with increased colocalization of CD68 and LC3 in immunofluorescence analy-sis.The mTOR mRNA expression in lung tissue decreased(P<0.01),while LC3 and beclin-1 mRNA expressions in-creased(P<0.01).Additionally,the protein expression ratio of p-mTOR/mTOR decreased(P<0.01),whereas LC3-II/LC3-I and beclin-1 protein levels increased(P<0.01).In comparison to the model group,significant improvements were noted after treatment with QJHF and MOX(P<0.01),while RAPA treatment led to a worsening of these indicators(P<0.05).A slight improvement was observed with the QJHF combined with RAPA intervention,though this was not statisti-cally significant.No significant differences were found between the MOX and QJHF groups.However,the QJHF+RAPA group displayed notable improvements in various indicators compared to the RAPA group(P<0.05).CONCLUSION:The QJHF can mitigate the inflammatory response associated with severe pneumonia,potentially by activating mTOR phos-phorylation activity,which in turn inhibits excessive autophagy in alveolar macrophages.

Objective To study the effects of Hedysarum polysaccharides polysaccharide(HPS)on the farnesoid X receptor(FXR)-fibroblast growth factor-19(FGF19)signaling pathway of diabetes rats.Methods Twelve Wistar male rats were randomly selected as the normal group,and the other rats were fed with a single intraperitoneal injection of streptozotocin(50 mg·kg-1 STZ)and a high sugar and high-fat diet to replicate the diabetes rat model.Model rats were randomly divided into model group,positive control group(given 400 mg·kg-1·d-1 suspension of Bifidobacterium quadruplex live bacterial tablets by gavage),experimental-H,-M,-L groups(given 200,100,and 50 mg·kg-1·d-1 doses of HPS suspension by gavage);normal group,and model group were given equal volume of purified water by gavage once a day for 8 consecutive weeks.Glucose(Glu)was detected by a blood glucose meter;and serum total glyceride(TG)and total cholesterol(TC)were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay reagent kit;the expressions of FXR、fibroblast growth factor receptors 4(FGFR4)relative mRNA expression level and protein were detected by real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction method and Western blot.Results The Glu concentrations in the normal group,model group,positive control group,and experimental-H groups were(7.66±0.61),(29.25±1.64),(23.31±3.02)and(19.31±5.13)mmol·L-1,respectively;the TG content were(957.00±113.73),(1 345.00±246.44),(958.00±96.53)and(964.00±130.22)μmol·L-1,respectively;the TC content were(161.65±4.53),(302.19±5.35),(236.09±5.14)and(165.58±2.58)μmol·L-1,respectively;the expression of FXR relative mRNA expression level were 1.00±0.06,0.48±0.02,0.67±0.04 and 0.92±0.04,respectively;the expression of FGFR4 relative mRNA expression level were 1.00±0.04,0.17±0.01,0.48±0.04 and 0.41±0.03;respectively.The above indexes of the model group were compared with the control group,and the above indexes of the control group and the experimental-H group were compared with the model group,and the differences were statistically significant(all P＜0.01).Conclusion HPS improves blood sugar,lowers blood lipids,and protects liver and intestinal tissues,possibly by regulating the FXR-FGF19 signaling pathway in intestinal tissue,and regulating bile acid synthesis.

Objective:To evaluate the efficacy and safety of blinatumomab in adult patients with relapsed/refractory(R/R)or measurable residual disease(MRD)positive B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia(B-ALL)in the real world.Methods:The clinical data of 30 B-ALL patients received at least 1 course of blinatumomab therapy in the Chinese PLA General Hospital from January 1st,2021 to December 31st,2023 were retrospectively analyzed,including pre-treatment baseline clinical feature,post-treatment complete response(CR),CR with partial hematologic recovery(CRh),CR with incomplete hematologic recovery(CRi),complete MRD response rate,MRD response rate(MRD＜10-4),overall survival(OS),and disease-free survival(DFS),as well as drug-related adverse reactions.Results:Among 5 patients who were not assessed 4 were MRD negative and 1 did not receive bone marrow biopsy.In the R/R B-ALL group(13 cases),11 patients achieved CR/CRh/CRi and 10 patients achieved complete MRD response.In MRD+group(12 cases),9 patients achieved overall MRD response and 7 patients achieved complete MRD response.The median follow-up time was 8.4(95％CI:6.3-10.4)months.The median OS was 15.5(95％CI:0.7-30.3)months in the R/R group,while not reached in the MRD+group.The median DFS of the two groups were not reached.Drug-related adverse reactions occurred in 22 patients,and pyrexia was the most common(13 cases).Grade ≥3 adverse reactions occurred in 15 patients,and neutropenia was the most common(9 cases).Cytokine release syndrome occurred in 6 patients,including 5 cases with grade 1 and 1 case with grade 3.No patients interrupted therapy or died due to drug-related adverse reactions.Conclusion:Blinatumomab is effective in the treatment of R/R or continuous MRD+B-ALL with acceptable adverse reactions.

Objective:To analyze the predictive role of WT1 expression levels pre-and early post-transplantation on relapse and overall survival(OS)in patients with acute myeloid leukemia(AML)undergoing allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation(allo-HSCT)during their first complete remission(CR1).Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of 107 adult AML patients who underwent allo-HSCT during their CR1 at our center between May 2012 and December 2021.The predictive role of bone marrow WT1 expression levels before transplantation and at 3 and 6 months post-transplantation on relapse and OS was explored in combination with relevant clinical factors.Results:The median follow-up time for the 107 patients was 70(range:11-117)months.Among the patients,15 cases died.Kaplan-Meier survial analysis showed that the 3-year overall survival(OS)rate was 85.0％.20 patients experienced relapse,with a median time to relapse of 8(range:0.5-44)months and a l-year cumulative relapse rate of 13.1％.The overall median value of WT1 before transplantation,3 months after transplantation,and 6 months after transplantation was 0.26％(range:0％-23.64％),with an upper quartile value of 0.74％.No statistically significant differences in WT1 expression levels were observed among the pre-transplantation,3-month post-transplantation,and 6-month post-transplantation time points(P=0.227).Univariate analysis showed that patients with WT1 levels＞0.74％at 3 months post-transplantation had a higher 1-year relapse rate(P=0.029)and lower 3-year OS rate(P＜0.001)compared to patients with WT1 levels ≤0.74％.Other significant factors affecting 1-year relapse included stem cell source(P=0.041)and chronic graft-versus-host disease(cGVHD)(P=0.013).For 3-year OS,additional influencing factors were genetic high risk(P=0.048)and stem cell source(P=0.016).Multivariate analysis revealed that WT1 level＞0.74％at 3 months post-transplantation had a trend to affect 1-year relapse rate(HR=3.309,95％CI:0.958-11.431,P=0.058),while the absence of cGVHD was an independent risk factor for 1-year relapse(HR=3.473,95％CI:0.749-16.100,P=0.037).Only WT1 level＞0.74％at 3 months post-transplantation was an independent risk factor for 3-year OS(HR=6.886,95％CI:2.402-19.738,P＜0.001).Conclusion:High WT1 expression level at 3 months post-transplantation in AML patients undergoing allo-HSCT during CR1 affects the 1-year relapse rate and 3-year OS,and is an independent risk factor affecting 3-year OS.These findings suggest that dynamic monitoring of WT1 expression levels has certain value in prognostic assessment of AML patients who received allo-HSCT during CR1.

Objective:To analyze the expression of serum lysyl oxidase like protein 4(LOXL4)and protein tyrosine phosphatase non receptor type 3(PTPN3)in patients with colorectal cancer and their relationship with postoperative liver metastasis.Methods:Totally 137 patients with colorectal cancer who visited Qingdao Central Hospital,University of Health and Rehabilitation Science from April 2017 to December 2019 were recruited as the cancer group.Complying with whether liver metastasis occurred during the follow-up period of 5 years,the patients were classified into the liver metastasis group(27 cases)and the non liver metastasis group(110 cases).Another 137 healthy individuals who underwent physical check ups were recruited as the control group.The qRT-PCR method was used to detect the ex-pression levels of serum LOXL4 and PTPN3 mRNAs.The serum LOXL4 and PTPN3 mRNAs were compared under dif-ferent clinical pathological data,and the pathological data of liver metastasis group and non liver metastasis group were compared.Cox regression analysis was used to explore the influencing factors of postoperative liver metastasis in pa-tients with colorectal cancer.ROC curve was used to explore the predictive value of serum LOXL4 and PTPN3 for postoperative liver metastasis in patients with colorectal cancer.Results:Compared with the control group,the can-cer group had higher levels of serum LOXL4 and PTPN3 mRNAs expression(P<0.05).Compared with patients with medium to high differentiation,infiltration depth≤1/2 muscle layer,and TNM stage I-II,patients with low differentia-tion,infiltration depth>1/2 muscle layer,and TNM stage III had higher levels of serum LOXL4 and PTPN3 mRNAs ex-pression(P<0.05).Compared with the non liver metastasis group,the liver metastasis group had higher levels of se-rum LOXL4 and PTPN3 mRNAs expression(P<0.05).High expression of serum LOXL4 and PTPN3 mRNAs were risk factors for liver metastasis after colorectal cancer surgery(P<0.05).Compared with the single prediction of serum LOXL4 and PTPN3 mRNAs,the AUC of serum LOXL4 combined with PTPN3 in predicting postoperative liver metasta-sis in colorectal cancer patients was higher(P<0.05).Conclusion:Serum LOXL4 and PTPN3 mRNAs expression lev-els are abnormally elevated in patients with colorectal cancer,which is related to the deterioration of pathological data such as differentiation degree,infiltration depth,and TNM staging.Elevated serum LOXL4 and PTPN3 mRNAs expres-sion levels may increase the risk of postoperative liver metastasis in patients,and the combination has higher predic-tive value for postoperative liver metastasis.
