Objective To explore the preliminary experience and clinical outcomes of domestic(Jingfeng)robot-assisted laparoscopic radical cystectomy and detubularized sigmoid neobladder construction, and to evaluate the technical feasibility, safety, and postoperative functional recovery. Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on 12 patients undergoing surgery in our department during Jun. and Dec.2024. The operation time, intraoperative blood loss, postoperative complications, and hospital stay were recorded to assess the surgical efficacy and safety.Results All 12 procedures were successfully completed. The average operation time was 460(390-540)minutes, including 213(170-250)minutes for radical cystectomy with lymph node dissection and 247(200-300)minutes for neobladder reconstruction and anastomosis. Intraoperative blood transfusion was required in 2 cases, and postoperative hemoglobin levels decreased by 22(7-46)g/L in 10 patients. All surgical margins were negative. No major complications of Clavien-Dindo Ⅲ or above occurred postoperatively. The average hospital stay was 9(7-14)days, and bowel function recovered within 2.58(2-3)days. During the follow-up of 2 to 6 months, 11 patients achieved daytime urinary continence, and 6 had normal continence. All patients had no obvious obstruction or hydronephrosis in the upper urinary tract. Conclusion Domestic robot-assisted laparoscopic radical cystectomy and detubularized sigmoid neobladder reconstruction is technically feasible, with advantages in precision, minimal invasiveness, and favorable postoperative recovery. Initial results demonstrate its potential in lymph node dissection, nerve preservation, and urinary continence restoration, suggesting it can become a valuable option for bladder cancer treatment.

Objective: To analyze near work illuminance patterns on school days and weekends among third and fourth grade primary school students by using objectively monitored data, and to examine the associations of the duration of near work under different illuminance levels and time weighted average near work illuminance with screening myopia. Methods: From April to June 2024, students from grades 3 and 4 in two primary schools in Jiading District, Shanghai were selected as study subjects by using stratified random cluster sampling method. Continuous objective monitoring of near work behavior was conducted for 7 days while information from uncorrected visual acuity and refractive assessment was collected, and an online questionnaire survey was administered to their parents. Valid samples comprised 372 students on school days and 292 on weekends. Welch s t test was used to compare differences in the duration of near work under different illuminance levels between the screening myopia and non-myopia groups. Multivariable binary Logistic regression analysis was employed to assess the association between the duration of near work under different illuminance levels and screening myopia. Restricted cubic spline (RCS) model was used to explore the nonlinear association between time weighted average near work illuminance with 60 cm and screening myopia, and the critical thresholds identified by the RCS model were used to categorize illuminance levels for subsequent Logistic regression analyses. Results: Objective monitoring of near work behavior showed that the duration of near work in the low illuminance range of [0,125)lx was significantly longer on weekends[(4.12±2.21)h] than on school days [(2.42±1.22)h]. Multivariate Logistic regression analysis revealed that only on school days, each additional hour of near work duration in the [0,125)lx ( OR =1.56, 95% CI =1.23-1.98) and ≥1 000 lx range ( OR =5.92, 95% CI =1.48-23.73) were significantly associated with higher odds of screening myopia(both P < 0.05). RCS plot showed that on school days, time weighted average near work illuminance with 60 cm had a non-linear association with screening myopia ( P non-linear <0.05). On weekends, no significant association was found between near work illuminance indicators and screening myopia (all P >0.05). Conclusions Primary school students engage in near work for considerable durations in insufficient lighting environments on both school days and weekends. Increased duration of near work in overly dim or bright environments on school days may increase the risk of screening myopia.

Objective On the basis of the theory of the tumor metastatic state, this work aims to explore the metastasis trajectories and peripheral immune response patterns in patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) receiving vital qi-strengthening and toxin-eliminating therapy (Fuzheng Juandu) and reveal the value of peripheral immunity in assessing vital qi deficiency during metastasis. Methods A retrospective study design was adopted. Patients with NSCLC admitted from January 1, 2018, to October 31, 2025 were enrolled. Data on metastasis status and peripheral immune indices were collected at the follow-up time points of one, two, three, and five years. Group-based trajectory modeling was used to fit metastasis trajectories, and the independent predictors of trajectory grouping were analyzed through multifactor and multiclassification logistic regression. Results A total of 184 patients with NSCLC were included, and three different groups of metastasis trajectories were identified, namely, the low-risk stable (46.74%, n=86), low-risk rising (13.59%, n=25), and high-risk stable (39.67%, n=73) groups. Univariate analysis revealed substantial differences in peripheral immune indices among the three trajectory groups. Multivariate analysis showed that TNM stage, absolute neutrophil count, lymphocyte count, absolute monocyte count, platelet volume, SAA:CRP ratio, and NLR were independent predictors of the low-risk rising group, whereas TNM stage, absolute monocyte count, basophil count, SII, and NLR were independent predictors of the high-risk stable group. Conclusion Under Fuzheng Juandu therapy, patients with NSCLC exhibit three distinct metastasis trajectories, each corresponding to a specific peripheral immune response pattern. Elucidating these peripheral immune response patterns may facilitate the objective quantification of the degree of vital qi deficiency, prediction of future metastasis risk, and providing an important reference for the individualized clinical implementation of Fuzheng Juandu therapy.

OBJECTIVE To evaluate the cost-effectiveness of brivaracetam （BRV） versus perampanel （PER） as add-on therapy for drug-resistant focal epilepsy in adults from the perspective of the Chinese healthcare system.METHODS A Markov model was established to simulate the progression of drug-resistant focal epilepsy in adults， with a simulation cycle of 5 months， a time horizon of 44 years， and a discount rate of 4.5%. Clinical data required for the model were derived from the phase Ⅲ clinical trial of BRV and a post hoc analysis of PER； cost data and utility data were obtained from Yaozh and related literature. The willingness-to-pay （WTP） threshold was set at twice China’s 2025 per capita gross domestic product （GDP） [199 330 yuan per quality-adjusted life year （QALY）]， and a cost-effectiveness analysis was adopted to compare the cost-effectiveness of the regimens. One-way sensitivity analysis and probabilistic sensitivity analysis were performed to confirm the stability of the base-case analysis conclusions.RESULTS The incremental cost-effectiveness ratio （ICER） of BRV 50 mg/d as an add-on therapy versus PER 8 mg/d was 44 823.08 yuan/QALY， which was below the WTP threshold； the ICER of BRV 200 mg/d versus PER 12 mg/d was 238 783.00 yuan/QALY， which was above the WTP threshold. In the one-way sensitivity analysis， the direct medical cost of seizures ≥53 times/year and the health utility value of a seizure-free state per year had a relatively large impact on the two ICER results mentioned above， respectively. Probabilistic sensitivity analysis indicated that the above results were robust.CONCLUSIONS For the selection of add-on therapy for drug-resistant focal epilepsy in adults in China， when twice China’s per capita GDP is used as the WTP threshold， BRV 50 mg/d has a cost-effectiveness advantage over PER 8 mg/d， whereas BRV 200 mg/d not have a cost-effectiveness advantage over PER 12 mg/d.

This article summarizes Professor HAN Mingxiang's clinical experience in treating lung cancer based on the theory of "deficiency-phlegm-stasis-toxin". It is believed that depletion of healthy qi， together with binding of phlegm and stasis forming into toxin is the core pathogenesis of lung cancer occurrence and development. In clinical practice， the core treatment principle should be reinforcing healthy qi， resolving phlegm， removing stasis， and relieving toxins. The treatment should be given based on syndrome differentiation. For the syndrome of lung-spleen qi deficiency， the self-formulated Jianpi Huatan Zhike Decoction （健脾化痰止咳汤） can be applied to fortify the spleen and replenish qi， thereby reinforcing healthy qi. For the syndrome of deficiency of both qi and yin， the self-formulated Shenmai Yuzhu Decoction （参麦玉竹汤） is used to nourish yin and moisten the lungs， thereby clearing the source. For the syndrome of phlegm-dampness accumulating in the lungs， the self-formulated Sizi Wenfei Decoction （四子温肺汤） is applied to warm the lungs and resolve phlegm， thereby diffusing the lung qi. For the syndrome of qi stagnation and blood stasis， the self-formulated Yiqi Zhuyu Decoction （益气逐瘀汤） is used to activate blood and resolve stasis， thereby unblocking the collaterals. For the syndrome of binding of phlegm and stasis， the self-formulated Jiejie Decoction （结节方） is utilized to resolve phlegm and remove stasis， thereby dissipating nodules. For the syndrome of lung deficiency with toxin accumulation， the self-formulated Qiyu Sanlong Decoction （芪玉三龙汤） is applied to reinforce healthy qi and remove toxins， thereby combating cancer. Medications are flexibly prescribed based on syndrome differentiation， with an emphasis on reinforcing healthy qi and eliminating pathogenic factors， and maintaining the balance of zang-fu （脏腑） organ functions as well as qi， blood， yin and yang.

The post-operative pancreatic fistula (POPF) rate was 53.8% (14/26), including 38.5% (10/26) biochemical leak and 15.3% (4/26) grade B POPF, with no grade C POPF.Conclusion:The splenic vessel-oriented anatomical plane priority strategy in robotic-assisted spleen-preserving distal pancreatectomy (Kimura technique) is safe and feasible, significantly improving the spleen preservation rate.

At present, acute brain injuries such as stroke and traumatic brain injury have become a serious burden on public health due to relatively limited treatment methods. As an emerging three-dimensional cell culture model, cerebral organoid can well redisplay the cellular diversity, tissue structure and functional characteristics of the human brain, providing an ideal platform for disease modeling, drug development and regenerative medicine research of acute brain injury. However, the construction and application of cerebral organoid are still in the exploratory stage at present, facing major technical bottlenecks such as insufficient vascularization, lack of immune microenvironment and tissue heterogeneity. This review summarizes the cultivation technique of cerebral organoid, highlights its application in acute brain injury, and analyzes its current technical bottleneck, so as to provide more reference basis for the development and application of this technology.

Deactivation of the mitochondrial pyruvate dehydrogenase complex (PDC) is important for the metabolic switching of cancer cell from oxidative phosphorylation to aerobic glycolysis. Studies examining PDC activity regulation have mainly focused on the phosphorylation of pyruvate dehydrogenase (E1), leaving other post-translational modifications largely unexplored. Here, we demonstrate that the acetylation of Lys 488 of pyruvate dehydrogenase complex component X (PDHX) commonly occurs in hepatocellular carcinoma, disrupting PDC assembly and contributing to lactate-driven epigenetic control of gene expression. PDHX, an E3-binding protein in the PDC, is acetylated by the p300 at Lys 488, impeding the interaction between PDHX and dihydrolipoyl transacetylase (E2), thereby disrupting PDC assembly to inhibit its activation. PDC disruption results in the conversion of most glucose to lactate, contributing to the aerobic glycolysis and H3K56 lactylation-mediated gene expression, facilitating tumor progression. These findings highlight a previously unrecognized role of PDHX acetylation in regulating PDC assembly and activity, linking PDHX Lys 488 acetylation and histone lactylation during hepatocellular carcinoma progression and providing a potential biomarker and therapeutic target for further development.
