With the deep integration of tumor diagnosis and treatment technologies and critical care medicine, oncology critical care has emerged as an innovative interdisciplinary field, whose standardized development is crucial for improving the prognosis of cancer patients. Based on complex system theory and incorporating cutting-edge clinical practices, this paper systematically elaborates on five core principles for promoting the high-quality development of oncology critical care: complex system thinking, value-based healthcare, interdisciplinary integration, spatiotemporal holism, and humanistic experience. These five principles provide a top-level design framework for the discipline in terms of conceptual understanding, comprehensive management, developmental paradigms, clinical treatment, and service models. They aim to establish a patient-centered oncology critical care system that balances medical quality and efficiency, ultimately maximizing patient survival benefits across their entire life cycle.

Shift work, as a form of non-conventional work schedule, significantly increases the risk of vascular aging and related diseases due to circadian rhythm disruption, sleep disturbances, and unhealthy lifestyle behaviors. This review systematically summarized the mechanisms and epidemiological evidence linking shift work to vascular aging. Available studies indicated that shift work disrupts the rhythmic expression of core circadian clock genes (e.g., BMAL1, CLOCK, PER, CRY), leading to dysregulated glucose and lipid metabolism, enhanced oxidative stress, chronic inflammation, and altered diurnal blood pressure patterns, thereby directly impairing endothelial function and accelerating arterial stiffness. Sleep deprivation and fragmentation further reduce nitric oxide bioavailability and promote endothelin-1 secretion, exacerbating vascular constriction and inflammatory responses. Existing epidemiological data show that shift workers exhibit higher prevalence of hypertension, metabolic syndrome, and atherosclerosis compared with non-shift workers, accompanied by abnormal vascular function indicators such as pulse wave velocity and carotid intima-media thickness. Additionally, unhealthy dietary habits, psychological stress, and sedentary behavior in shift workers synergistically contribute to vascular aging. This review aims to provide a theoretical basis for the pathological link between shift work and vascular aging and to inform public health policy formulation and occupational health management.

In current clinical practice, various dermal templates and skin substitutes are used to enhance wound healing. However, the role of wound commensal microbiome in regulating scaffold performance and the healing process remains unclear. In this study, we investigated the influence of both natural and synthetic scaffolds on the wound commensal microbiome and wound repair in three distinct models including diabetic wounds, burn injuries, and germ-free (GF) wounds. Remarkably, synthetic electrospun polycaprolactone (PCL) scaffolds were observed to positively promote microbiome diversity, leading to enhanced diabetic wound healing compared to the natural scaffolds Integra® (INT) and MatriDerm® (MAD). In contrast, both natural and synthetic scaffolds exhibited comparable effects on the diversity of the microbiome and the healing of burn injuries. In GF wounds with no detectable microorganisms, a reversed healing rate was noted showing natural scaffold (MAD) accelerated wound repair compared to the open or the synthetic scaffold (PCL) treatment. Furthermore, the response of the wound commensal microbiome to PCL scaffolds appears pivotal in promoting anti-inflammatory factors during diabetic wound healing. Our results emphasize that the wound commensal microbiome, mediated by different scaffolds plays an important role in the wound healing process.

OBJECTIVE To explore the clinical characteristics of bronchial asthma with secondary pulmonary infec-tions in children and compare the expressions of transcriptomes in peripheral blood between the bronchial asthma with secondary pulmonary infections and the bronchial asthma without the secondary pulmonary infections.METHODS The clinical data were collected from 425 children with bronchial asthma who were treated in respirato-ry medicine department of Children's Hospital of Anhui Province from Apr.2022 to Feb.2025 and were retrospec-tively analyzed.The enrolled children were divided into the infection group with 60 cases and the non-infection group with 365 cases according to the status of complication with pulmonary infections.The clinical characteristics were compared between the infection group and the non-infection group.The gene expression profile sequencing was carried out for peripheral blood mononuclear cells by transcriptome high throughput technology,and the bio-logical information was analyzed.RESULTS There were significant differences in course of asthma,frequencies times of acute attack,complication with nasosinusitis or allergic rhinitis,standardized use of antibiotics and intra-venous use of glucocorticoids between the two groups of children(P＜0.05).Totally 60 children had secondary pulmonary infections,with the infection rate 14.12％.Totally 73 strains of pathogens were isolated,43.84％of which were gram-positive bacteria,and 56.16％were gram-negative bacteria.As compared with the non-infection group,there were 1578 genes with the changed expression in the infection group,and the expressions of the genes such as nuclear factor κB were upregulated.The differentially expressed genes were primarily enriched in immuno-regulation-related pathways,including proinflammatory factor signal transduction,interacted networks of cyto-kines and its receptors,T lymphocyte activation signal transduction and other biological processes.CONCLUSION The specific clinical characteristics and abnormal immune pathways may jointly result in the pulmonary infec-tions in children with the asthma and provide theoretical bases for early identification of the children at high risk of pneumonia and targeted intervention.

Objective:To evaluate the diagnostic efficacy of B-type natriuretic peptide(BNP)combined with the Evaluation of Guidelines in Syncope Study(EGSYS)score for cardiogenic syncope(CS), and to provide evidence for rapid clinical identification of high-risk patients.Methods:We retrospectively analyzed 366 patients with syncope hospitalized in the department of cardiovascular medicine of Beijing Hospital from January 1, 2016, to December 31, 2022.Based on the international guideline diagnostic criteria, the patients were categorized into four groups: neutrally mediated reflex syncope(NMS)group, orthostatic hypotension(OH)group, cardiogenic syncope(CS)group, and syncope of unknown origin(US)group.BNP levels were measured at admission and EGSYS scores were calculated.Receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve analysis was performed to assess the diagnostic efficacy of individual and combined indices for CS.Results:A total of 366 syncope patients were included, among which 70 patients(19.1%)were diagnosed with NMS, 25 patients(6.8%)with OH, 44 patients(12.0%)with CS, and 227 patients(62.0%)with US.Patients in the CS group had significantly higher BNP levels and EGSYS scores compared to those in the NMS, OH, and US groups(all P<0.001). The AUC of EGSYS score for diagnosing CS was 0.783(95% CI: 0.711-0.855), while the AUC of BNP level for diagnosing CS was 0.805(95% CI: 0.727-0.884). When BNP level was combined with EGSYS score, diagnostic performance was significantly improved, with the AUC increasing to 0.855(95% CI: 0.792-0.918). Conclusions:The combination of BNP and EGSYS score significantly can improve the diagnostic accuracy of cardiogenic syncope, providing a practical diagnostic strategy for the early identification of high-risk syncope patients in clinical practice.

Objective:To study the characteristics of soil microbial composition in sheep sheds in agricultural and pastoral areas, and explore potential zoonotic pathogen species.Methods:Using cross-sectional survey method, soil samples from sheep sheds in the agricultural and pastoral areas of Darhan-Muminggan Joint County, Baotou City, Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region were collected from August to October 2023. Genomic DNA was extracted, and metagenomic second-generation sequencing was conducted. Microbial species annotation was carried out by Kaiju method, and the soil microbial composition and zoonotic pathogen species of sheep sheds in agricultural and pastoral areas were analyzed.Results:A total of 10 and 5 soil samples were collected from sheep sheds in agricultural and pastoral areas, respectively. The results of β diversity analysis showed that there was a significant separation trend in soil samples from sheep sheds in agricultural and pastoral areas, and the interpretation of principal co-ordinates analysis (PCoA) 1 and PCoA2 were 27.8% and 17.4%, respectively. There was no significant difference in the microbial composition of soil samples from sheep sheds in agricultural and pastoral areas ( R = 0.09, P = 0.242). At the phylum level, the dominant bacterial phyla were Actinobacteria, Proteobacteria, Firmicutes, and Bacteroidetes. At the genus level, the dominant bacterial genera were Corynebacterium, Luteimonas, Atopostipes, and Salinicoccus. A variety of zoonotic pathogens were detected, including Brucella melitensis, Mycobacterium tuberculosis, and Clostridium tetani in 15 soil samples. Conclusion:The soil microorganisms in sheep sheds in agricultural and pastoral areas are diverse, and zoonotic pathogens such as Brucella melitensis, Mycobacterium tuberculosis, and Clostridium tetani are detected.

This report described the multidisciplinary management of a preterm infant with congenital tracheal agenesis (TA). The infant, delivered via cesarean section at 32 +5 weeks' gestation, had Apgar scores of 6 and 8 at 1 and 5 minutes, respectively. Although skin color improved after 30 seconds of bag-mask ventilation, the infant exhibited no cry, weak spontaneous breathing, and failed multiple intubation attempts. The patient was transferred to Anhui Children's Hospital of Fudan University under continuous bag-mask positive-pressure ventilation at 3 hours after birth (September 10, 2024). Combined imaging and fiberoptic bronchoscopy confirmed TA (Floyd type Ⅱ/Faro type C) with multiple anomalies, including duodenal atresia, aortic coarctation, and butterfly vertebrae. Whole-genome sequencing revealed a suspected mosaic SCN2A c.5317G>A variant (wild-type parents) and an ERCC5 c.2974C>T heterozygous variant inherited from the mother (homozygous). Following esophageal intubation, invasive mechanical ventilation, and continuous gastrointestinal decompression, respiratory distress significantly improved with a stabilized condition. The infant died 30 hours after birth following treatment withdrawal.
