ObjectiveTo analyze the research hotspots and development trends in the field of spinal cord stimulation (SCS) for spinal cord injury (SCI). MethodsLiterature about SCS for SCI was retrieve from the Web of Science (WOS) Core Collection database, with a time range from January, 1999 to July, 2025. VOSviewer 1.6.20 and CiteSpace 6.4.R2 were used to analyze the annual publication volume, countries, authors, institutions, journals and keywords. ResultsA total of 636 literatures were included. From 1999 to 2025, the overall publication trend in this field showed an upward trajectory, with recent years fluctuating but tending to stabilize. The country with the most publications was the United States (429 papers), followed by Russia (98 papers) and China (70 papers). The institution with the highest number of publications was the University of California, Los Angeles (76 papers), the author with the most publications was V. Reggie Edgerton (70 papers), and the journal with the most publications was Journal of Clinical Medicine (31 papers). The most frequently cited study focused on exploring the combination of epidural spinal cord stimulation with task-specific training to restore motor function in patients with complete SCI. Keyword analysis showed that the research hotspots in this field were mainly focused on neuroregulation mechanisms, recovery of motor and autonomic nervous dysfunction, artificial intelligence, closed-loop stimulation and brain-computer interface technology innovations. In recent years, the research focus gradually shifted from basic mechanisms to personalized and precise multifunctional rehabilitation strategies. ConclusionThe field of SCS for SCI has undergone phases of basic mechanism exploration and clinical application expansion. Current research hotspots and future trends focus primarily on the development of new stimulation paradigms and combined innovative technologies.

OBJECTIVE To construct a multimodal similarity model for Chinese drug names and design optimized display names，compare the potential confusion risk of display names of the same drug catalogue in different scenarios，so as to provide a quantitative basis for the management of drug display names.METHODS A total of 1 221 drug entries were extracted from the drug dictionary of a tertiary grade A hospital，forming 744 810 drug pairs. “Five rules” were summarized based on the confusion characteristics of candidate confusable drug pairs under the currently used in-hospital display names （Scenario 1） and standard display names （Scenario 2），to generate optimized display names （Scenario 3）. A multimodal similarity model integrating Pinyin，glyph，character sequence and rendered visual features was constructed. The same threshold （total similarity S total ≥0.70） was adopted to screen candidate confusable drug pairs. Confusion risk grading and transition，confusion characteristic labeling，confusion network clustering and residual cluster analysis were carried out. The naming mechanism of optimized display names was investigated through display morphology indicators and rule ablation，and the robustness of the comparison results among the three scenarios was evaluated through similarity threshold and fusion weight sensitivity analysis.RESULTS The numbers of candidate confusable drug pairs in the three scenarios were 156，269 and 83 respectively，among which the number of pairs at high risk and above was 109， 215 and 64 respectively. Compared with Scenario 1，Scenario 3 reduced the number of candidate confusable drug pairs by 46.8%，and the number of those at high risk or above decreased by 41.3%. Display morphology analysis showed that Scenario 3 had the lowest average ink density （0.057 3） and the largest average number of structural slots （2.99）. Rule ablation analysis showed that after disabling the rule of manufacturer characteristic abbreviation prompts，the number of candidate confusable drug pairs increased the most （+74 pairs），while disabling structured naming alone resulted in a net decrease of 9 pairs. The residual clusters mainly involved drugs with the same active ingredient but different specifications or subtypes，as well as series products from the same manufacturer with similar main name stems. Under the threshold setting of 0.60 to 0.80 with a step size of 0.025 and 11 different weight configurations （including the baseline value），the number of candidate confusable drug pairs always maintained the ranking of Scenario 3＜Scenario 1＜Scenario 2.CONCLUSIONS The multimodal similarity model can be used for quantitative screening of potential confusion of Chinese drug display names，and the ranking of the number of candidate confusable drug pairs among scenarios remains stable within the set parameter range. The optimized display names based on the “five rules” can reduce the number of candidate confusable drug pairs， and the number of those at high risk or above in the hospital’s drug catalogue，but their impact on actual identification behavior and clinical medication safety still needs further verification.

Objective Patients with lung cancer often experience interrelated symptoms such as fatigue, pain, and sleep disturbances during chemotherapy, forming a core symptom cluster that significantly impacts daily functioning, treatment experience, and quality of life. Currently, evidence on non-pharmacological management of this core symptom cluster is scattered, and there is a lack of standardized, patient- and caregiver-friendly guidance tools that are easy to understand and implement. This patient guideline aims to provide decision support for self-management of the core symptom cluster in patients undergoing chemotherapy for lung cancer. Methods Guided by evidence-based methodology, qualitative interviews and on-site questionnaire surveys were conducted to identify the health-related needs of stakeholders. Domestic and international guideline websites, relevant professional association websites, and comprehensive databases were systematically searched according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria. The included literature was evaluated for quality, and recommendations were extracted, integrated, and graded to form a summary of the best evidence. Based on the identified health issues and evidence summary, preliminary recommendations for the patient guideline were developed. The recommendations were then revised through two rounds of Delphi expert consultation, and consensus was reached on the strength of recommendations, forming the final version of the patient guideline. Results The patient guideline covered four major sections: screening and assessment of core symptom clusters, daily management, intervention measures, and timing of referral. The core content included nine aspects: screening of core symptom clusters, assessment, lifestyle habits, dietary interventions, sleep environment, exercise interventions, psychological interventions, Traditional Chinese Medicine interventions, and referral indications. In total, the guidelines addressed 16 health issues and provided 25 recommendations. Conclusion The development process of this patient guideline is rigorous and fully considered the needs of patients. Expert review concludes that the recommendations are highly feasible and appropriate.

Objective:To summarize the clinical characteristics and key points of diagnosis and treatment in children with TCF3::HLF fusion gene-positive acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL).Methods:A case series study was conducted. Clinical data of 8 children diagnosed with TCF3::HLF positive ALL at the Hematology Center of Beijing Children′s Hospital, Capital Medical University and the Hematology Oncology Department of Henan Children′s Hospital between January 2019 and January 2024 were collected. Descriptive analysis was performed on their clinical features, laboratory findings, treatment regimens and prognosis.Results:The cohort included 8 children (3 males and 5 females) with the age of 5.5 (3.5, 7.0) years. Bone pain was the primary clinical manifestation in 4 cases, with multi-site skeletal involvement in 4 cases, hypercalcemia in 5 cases, and coagulation abnormalities in 6 cases. Immunophenotyping revealed common B-cell lineage with myeloid markers in 7 cases and common B-cell phenotype in 1 case. All 8 children were positive for the TCF3::HLF fusion gene. Regarding treatment, 1 case abandoned therapy after diagnosis, while the remaining 7 cases received chemotherapy following the Chinese Children′s Leukemia Group-ALL2018 high-risk protocol. Only 1 case achieved minimal residual disease (MRD) negativity by day 33 of induction therapy. Among the 3 cases with MRD negativity before consolidation therapy, 1 case achieved it via conventional chemotherapy, while 2 cases required additional agents (venetoclax or blinatumomab). One case failed to achieve MRD negativity after consolidation therapy and later discontinued treatment (survival periods: 7months).Of the 4 cases who achieved MRD negativity after consolidation, 2 cases received conventional chemotherapy and 2 cases achieved negativity following chimeric antigen receptor T-cell therapy (CART). All 4 cases underwent hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). Two cases in the CART combined with HSCT group survived as of the last follow-up (survival periods: 22 and 13 months). In the conventional chemotherapy combined HSCT group, 1 case relapsed and died (survival: 38 months), and 1 case died from transplant complications (survival: 11 months). The other 2 cases achieved MRD negativity before consolidation therapy but did not receive regular subsequent chemotherapy. After MRD recurrence, they underwent CART therapy without HSCT and remained alive at the last follow-up (survival periods: 49 and 12 months).Conclusions:Children with TCF3::HLF positive ALL often present with bone destruction accompanied by hypercalcemia and coagulopathy at initial diagnosis. This subtype of ALL shows poor response to conventional chemotherapy regimens, characterized by low early remission rates and high relapse risk even after HSCT. Better therapeutic outcomes have been observed with small molecule targeted drugs, immunotherapy and CART therapy.

Objective:The objective of this study is to analyze the detection rate, the pathogenic fungus distribution, risk factors and drug sensitivity of fungal infection of external auditory canal in patients diagnosed with chronic otitis media. Methods:The data of a total of 419 patients with chronic suppurative otitis media or middle ear cholesteatoma who were admitted from January 2019 to February 2023 were retrospectively analyzed. Results:A total of 419 patients were included, and 71 patients（16.9%） were positive for fungal culture. The disease mostly occurred in subjects aged 51-60 years old, and patients over 60 years old（47 cases, 66.2%）. From the fungal culture of external auditory canal secretions, 48 cases（11.4%） of Aspergillus and 14 cases（3.3%） of Candida were identified. The prevalence of fungal cultures in patients with chronic suppurative otitis media（20.8%） was significantly higher than that in patients with middle ear cholectestoma（4.9%）. The detection rate of Fungal was significantly increased after topical treatment with antibiotic ear drops（47.0% vs 13.6%）. Most of the isolated fungal strains are wild-type, and they are the sensitivity to voriconazole and fluconazole was the highest（97.2%）. For patients with positive fungal culture, iodoform gauze with triamcinolone acetonide and econazole cream was used to fill the external auditory canal during surgery. There was no significant difference in the tympanic membrane healing rate between patients with positive fungal culture and patients with negative fungal culture at 3 weeks after surgery（98.6% vs 97.7%）. Conclusion:Fungal infections of external auditory canal in patients with chronic otitis media tend to occur in older patients, which is more common in patients with chronic suppurative otitis media. Long-term topical treatment with antibiotic ear drops is an independent risk factor for fungal infection of external auditory canal in patients with chronic otitis media. The isolated fungal strains were highly sensitive to antifungal drugs. Therefore, it is advisable to refrain from employing topical antibiotic treatment for elderly patients with chronic suppurative otitis media/middle ear cholesteatoma, abuse of local antibiotic therapy should be avoided, and Fungal-related pathogenic examinations should be actively performed and anti-fungal drugs should be added if necessary.
