ObjectiveTo explore the mechanism of the anti-cancer compound formula Feiyanning in inhibiting epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) and invasion and metastasis of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). MethodsCell proliferation and activity were assessed using the cell counting kit-8(CCK-8) assay to evaluate the effect of Feiyanning on the proliferation of A549 and H1299 cells. Wound healing and Transwell assays were conducted to examine Feiyanning's impact on the metastasis of A549 and H1299 cells. The effects of Feiyanning on EMT and the transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1)/Smad signaling pathway proteins in A549 and H1299 cells were detected by Western blot. Exogenous TGF-β1 was used to induce EMT in A549 and H1299 cells. The effects of Feiyanning on TGF-β1-induced NSCLC cell metastasis, EMT, and the TGF-β1/Smad pathway proteins were assessed by wound healing assay, Transwell assay, and Western blot. In vivo, an A549 lung metastasis model was established via tail vein injection in nude mice. A total of 28 SPF male nude mice were randomly divided into four groups: Model (NC) group, Feiyanning low-dose (FYN1) group, Feiyanning high-dose (FYN2) group, and the positive control group (TGF-β receptor kinase inhibitor SB431542 group). The corresponding interventions were performed. After 40 days, the mice were euthanized, and lung metastases were analyzed. The expression of E-cadherin, N-cadherin, p-Smad2, and p-Smad3 in each group was detected by immunohistochemistry (IHC). ResultsAfter Feiyanning intervention, compared to the blank group, Feiyanning inhibited the proliferation of A549 and H1299 cells in a concentration-dependent manner (P<0.01). The metastasis ability of Feiyanning-treated cells was significantly decreased compared to the blank group (P<0.01). The expression of EMT marker proteins N-cadherin and zinc finger transcription factors (Zeb1, Snail, Slug) was significantly reduced in the Feiyanning groups compared to the blank group (P<0.05, P<0.01). The expression of p-Smad2/3, Smad2/3, TβRI, and TβRⅡ, key proteins in the TGF-β1/Smad signaling pathway, was also significantly decreased (P<0.01). In the TGF-β1-induced EMT model, compared to the TGF-β1 group, the cell metastasis ability in the Feiyanning groups was reduced (P<0.01), and the expression levels of N-cadherin, Zeb1, Snail, and Slug were significantly lower (P<0.01). The expression levels of p-Smad2/3, Smad2/3, TβRI, and TβRⅡ were also significantly reduced (P<0.01). In vivo results showed that compared to the model group, the number of lung metastases in the FYN1, FYN2, and SB431542 groups was reduced (P<0.01), and the range of cell infiltration was narrowed. Immunohistochemical results showed that compared to the model group, the expression of E-cadherin in the FYN1, FYN2, and SB431542 groups was increased (P<0.01), the expression of N-cadherin decreased (P<0.05, P<0.01), and the expression of p-Smad2 and p-Smad3, key proteins of the TGF-β1/Smad pathway, was reduced (P<0.01). ConclusionFeiyanning inhibits the invasion and metastasis of NSCLC cells and EMT. The mechanism is related to the inhibition of TGF-β1/Smad signaling pathway.

Hip fracture in the elderly is characterized by high incidence, high disability rate, and high mortality and has been recognized as a public health issue threatening their health. Surgery is the preferred choice for the treatment of elderly patients with hip fracture. However, lower extremity deep venous thrombosis (DVT) has an extremely high incidence rate during the perioperative period, and may significantly increase the risk of patients′ death once it progresses to pulmonary embolism. In response to this issue, the clinical guidelines and expert consensuses all emphasize active application of comprehensive preventive measures, including basic prevention, physical prevention, and pharmacological prevention. In this prevention system, basic prevention is the basis of physical and pharmacological prevention. However,there is a lack of unified and definite recommendations for basic preventive measures in clinical practice. To this end, the Orthopedic Nursing Professional Committee of the Chinese Nursing Association and Nursing Department of the Orthopedic Branch of the China International Exchange and Promotive Association for Medical and Health Care organized relevant nursing experts to formulate Expert consensus on perioperative basic prevention for lower extremity deep venous thrombosis in elderly patients with hip fracture ( version 2024) . A total of 10 recommendations were proposed, aiming to standardize the basic preventive measures for lower extremity DVT in elderly patients with hip fractures during the perioperative period and promote their subsequent rehabilitation.

Patients with severe trauma require an extremely timely treatment and transfusion plays an irreplaceable role in the emergency treatment of such patients. An increasing number of evidence-based medicinal evidences and clinical practices suggest that patients with severe traumatic bleeding benefit from early transfusion of low-titer group O whole blood or hemostatic resuscitation with red blood cells, plasma and platelet of a balanced ratio. However, the current domestic mode of blood supply cannot fully meet the requirements of timely and effective blood transfusion for emergency treatment of patients with severe trauma in clinical practice. In order to solve the key problems in blood supply and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma, Branch of Clinical Transfusion Medicine of Chinese Medical Association, Group for Trauma Emergency Care and Multiple Injuries of Trauma Branch of Chinese Medical Association, Young Scholar Group of Disaster Medicine Branch of Chinese Medical Association organized domestic experts of blood transfusion medicine and trauma treatment to jointly formulate Chinese expert consensus on blood support mode and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma patients ( version 2024). Based on the evidence-based medical evidence and Delphi method of expert consultation and voting, 10 recommendations were put forward from two aspects of blood support mode and transfusion strategies, aiming to provide a reference for transfusion resuscitation in the emergency treatment of severe trauma and further improve the success rate of treatment of patients with severe trauma.
