Cultivating innovative medical talents is a key strategy for enhancing a hospital's core competitiveness.Taking Zhejiang Cancer Hospital as a case study,this paper constructs a lifelong training system for innovative medical talents based on the"Triple-Phase Cultivation Framework(three stages,four integrations,five mechanisms)".This system delineates the cultivation cycle in-to three stages aligned with talent development trajectories:the"30s Start-up Phase"(young talents under 35),the"40s Growth Phase"(core professionals under 45),and the"50s Breakthrough Phase"(academic leaders under 50).It implements a four-dimensional cultivation model integrating medicine with research,education,engineering/informatics,and industry.Furthermore,a com-prehensive guarantee mechanism is established,encompassing policies & systems,platform re-sources,project drivers,financial investment,and talent teams.Practice demonstrates that this system has significantly enhanced talent development effectiveness.Over the past five years,the hospital has established 2 academician workstations and recruited 10 academician teams.The annual number of postdoctoral researchers has surged from 4 in 2020 to 58 in 2024.A total of 71 innova-tive talents have been selected across three batches,with 69 recognitions in provincial/ministerial-level talent programs,placing the hospital among the leaders within hospitals directly under the Zhejiang Provincial Health Commission.Notably,the hospital achieved a"zero breakthrough"in in-dependently cultivating national-level talents,including recipients of the National Ten-Thousand Talent Program(Young Top Talents)and the Postdoctoral Innovative Talent Support Program.The"Triple-Phase Cultivation Framework"establishes a replicable paradigm for nurturing innovative medical talents through its full-career-cycle approach,multidisciplinary integration,and systematic support mechanisms,offering valuable insights for talent strategies in specialized cancer hospitals.

Objective:To explore the correlation between quantitative parameters based on SUV acquired by dynamic SPECT/CT imaging of parotid glands and pathological grading of labial gland in patients with primary Sj?gren syndrome (pSS).Methods:Seventy-two patients (6 males, 66 females, age (51.5±13.8) years) with confirmed pSS diagnosed at Hebei General Hospital between August 2022 and March 2024 were prospectively included. The clinical data and pathological grading information from labial gland biopsies were analyzed. Dynamic SPECT/CT imaging of the parotid glands was performed, and quantitative parameters based on SUV were obtained using Q-metrix software: SUV max, SUV mean, uptake volume of parotid glands (UVP) and total parotid uptake (TPU) pre/post-acid stimulation, as well as the differences in quantitative parameters before and after acid stimulation (ΔSUV max, ΔSUV mean, ΔUVP, and ΔTPU). The independent-sample t test or Mann-Whitney U test was performed to evaluate the differences in parameters between patients with pathological grade 1-2 and those with pathological grade 3-4. Spearman rank correlation was used to analyze the correlation between quantitative parameters and pathological grading. The performance of quantitative parameters in distinguishing pathological grade 1-2 from grade 3-4 was assessed using ROC curve analysis with Delong test. Results:The SUV max pre/post-acid stimulation in patients with pathological grade 1-2 ( n=30) were higher than those in patients with grade 3-4 ( n=42) (36.38(27.81, 44.17) vs 15.45(10.77, 24.51), Z=-5.51, P<0.001(pre-acid stimulation); 21.53(16.93, 26.21) vs 11.33(7.32, 15.89), Z=-5.27, P<0.001 (post-acid stimulation)). SUV mean, UVP and TPU pre/post-acid stimulation in patients with pathological grade 1-2, as well as ΔSUV max, ΔSUV mean and ΔTPU, were all significantly higher ( Z values: from -4.73 to -3.04, t values: 6.39, 4.50, all P<0.01). Moreover, these parameters were negatively correlated with the pathological grading ( rs values: from -0.66 to -0.36, all P<0.05). No significant difference in ΔUVP was observed between patients with pathological grade 1-2 and those with grade 3-4 ( Z=-1.05, P=0.293), and ΔUVP showed no correlation with pathological grading ( rs=-0.13, P=0.297). Among all parameters, SUV max pre/post-acid stimulation and TPU pre-acid stimulation exhibited better diagnostic performance in differentiating pathological grade 1-2 from grade 3-4, with AUC values of 0.883, 0.866, and 0.888, respectively. Delong test showed that those 3 AUC values were all higher than AUC values of SUV mean, UVP post-acid stimulation and ΔUVP (all AUC<0.800; Z values: 2.09-4.65, all P<0.05). Conclusion:The quantitative parameters of parotid glands based on SUV acquired by dynamic SPECT/CT can reflect the damage degree of parotid glands in patients with pSS, providing novel quantitative analytical tools for the functional diagnosis and assessment of pSS.

Objective To evaluate the risk of bias and reporting quality in randomized controlled trials(RCTs)of the Chinese medicine injection for acute cerebral infarction in the last five years.Methods RCTs literature on Chinese medicine injection in the treatment of acute cerebral infarction was systematically searched in CNKI,Wanfang Data,VIP,China Biology Medicine Database(CBM),PubMed,Embase and Cochrane Library from April 20,2018 to April 20,2023.The risk of bias and reporting quality of included RCTs were evaluated using the Cochrane Risk of Bias Tool(ROB 1.0)and CONSORT-CHM Formulas 2017,respectively.Results A total of 4 301 articles were retrieved,and 408 RCTs were included according to inclusion and exclusion criteria.The ROB evaluation results showed that the the majority of studies were rated as having an unclear risk of bias due to the lack of reporting on allocation concealment,blind method,trial registration information,and funding sources.The evaluation results of CONSORT-CHM Formulas 2017 showed that the number of reported papers of 17 items was greater than or equal to 50%,and the number of reported papers of 25 items was less than 10%,and most of the RCTs did not show the characteristics of TCM syndrome differentiation and treatment.Conclusion The quality of Chinese medicine injection in the treatment of acute cerebral infarction RCTs is generally low.It is recommended that researchers refer to the methodology design of RCTs and international reporting standards,improve the trial design,standardize the trial report,and highlight the characteristics of TCM syndrome differentiation and treatment.

Clinical trials play a crucial role in advancing the field of human health care. The registration of clinical trials can effectively identify potential publication bias and prevent unnecessary duplication of research efforts, serving as a source of transparent data for health care professionals and researchers, enhancing the quality of clinical research, and presenting more transparent, standardized, authentic, and useful clinical trials. To enhance the capacity for evidence production in traditional medicine from the source, the International Traditional Medicine Clinical Trial Registry (ITMCTR), a cross-regional registry focusing on the theme of traditional medicine, was established. Under the current registration background, this study aims to introduce the problems and current status related to clinical trial registration, as well as the features and functions of the ITMCTR. The results of this study illustrate the necessity of establishing a specialized registration platform for traditional medicine to assist researchers in understanding the basic background of registration and relevant information regarding registration platforms, regardless of whether their research is related to traditional medicine or not. Ultimately, the results of this work will help researchers choose the appropriate platform for more efficient and transparent registration.

Schizophrenia is a severe mental illness with a significant disease burden.The interaction between oxidative stress and pro-inflammatory factors promotes chronic neuroinflammation and immune damage,leads to dysregulation of dopaminergic and glutamatergic pathways and occurrence of psychotic symptoms and is believed to be closely related to the pathogenesis of schizophrenia.In this paper,we aim to identify biomarkers within the tryptophan kynurenine metabolic pathway,the WNT/β-Catenin pathway and the NF-κB pathway,and dopamine metabolism.These pathways have been extensively studied and are known to be involved in the interac-tion between inflammation and oxidative stress.We will also explore the potential application of related antioxidants in the diagnosis and treatment of schizophrenia,summarizing their current research progress.

Objective To explore the mechanism of spleen tissue inflammatory response induced by altitude hypoxia in mice.Methods C57BL/6 mice were randomly assigned to a plain,i.e.,low-altitude,normoxia group and an altitude hypoxia group,with 5 mice in each group.In the plain normoxia group,the mice were kept in a normoxic environment at the altitude of 400 m above sea level(with an oxygen concentration of 19.88%).The mice in the altitude hypoxia group were kept in an environment at the altitude of 4200 m above sea level(with an oxygen concentration of 14.23%)to establish the animal model of altitude hypoxia.On day 30,spleen tissues were collected to determine the splenic index.HE staining was performed to observe the histopathological changes in the spleen tissues of the mice.Real time fluorogenic quantitative PCR(RT-qPCR)and Western blot were conducted to determine the mRNA and protein expressions of interleukin(IL)-6,IL-12,and IL-1β in the spleen tissue of the mice.High-throughput transcriptome sequencing was performed with RNA sequencing(RNA-seq).KEGG enrichment analysis was performed for the differentially expressed genes(DEGs).The DEGs in the key pathways were verified by RT-qPCR.Results Compared with the plain normoxia group,the mice exposed to high-altitude hypoxic environment had decreased spleen index(P<0.05)and exhibited such pathological changes as decreased white pulp,enlarged germinal center,blurred edge,and venous congestion.The mRNA and protein expression levels of IL-6,IL-12,and IL-1β in the spleen tissue of mice in the altitude hypoxia group were up-regulated(P<0.05).According to the results of transcriptome sequencing and KEGG pathway enrichment analysis,4218 DEGs were enriched in 178 enrichment pathways(P<0.05).DEGs were significantly enriched in multiple pathways associated with immunity and inflammation,such as T cell receptor signaling pathway,TNF signaling pathway,and IL-17 signaling pathway(P<0.05)in the spleen of mice exposed to high-altitude hypoxic environment.Among them,IL-17 signaling pathway and the downstream inflammatory factors were highly up-regulated(P<0.05).Compared with the plain normoxia group,the mRNA expression levels of key genes in the IL-17 signaling pathway,including IL-17,IL-17R,and mitogen-activated protein kinase genes(MAPKs),and the downstream inflammatory factors,including matrix metallopeptidase 9(MMP9),S100 calcium binding protein A8 gene(S100A8),S100 calcium binding protein A9 gene(S100A9),and tumor necrosis factor α(TNF-α),were up-regulated or down-regulated(P<0.05)in the altitude hypoxia group.According to the validation of RT-qPCR results,the mRNA expression levels of DEGs were consistent with the RNA-seq results.Conclusion Altitude hypoxia can induce inflammatory response in the mouse spleen tissue by activating IL-17 signaling pathway and promoting the release of downstream inflammatory factors.

Standardized reporting is a crucial factor affecting the use of patient guidelines （PGs）， particularly in the reporting and presentation of recommendations. This paper introduced the current status of PG reporting， including the research on PG content and presentation formats， and provided comprehensive recommendations for PG reporting from aspects such as overall framework， recommendations， presentation format， and readability. First， the presentation of PG recommendations should include clearly defined clinical questions， recommendations and their rationale， and guidance on how patients should implement the interventions； for specific content in the PG， such as level of evidence， level of recommendation， it is recommended to explain in text the reasons for giving different levels of recommendation， i.e.， to present the logic behind giving the level of recommendation to the patient； additional information needed in the recommendation framework should be supplemented by tracing references or authoritative textbooks and literature that support the recommendations. Subsequently， the PG text should be written based on the Reporting Checklist for Public Versions of Guidelines （RIGHT-PVG） reporting framework. Finally， to enhance readability and comprehension， it is recommended to refer to the Patient Education Materials Assessment Tool （PEMAT） for translating PG content. To enhance the readability of PGs， it is suggested to present the PG content in a persona-lized and layered manner.

Since the concept of patient versions of guidelines （PVGs） was introduced into China， several PVGs have been published in China， but we found that there is a big difference between the concept of PVG at home and abroad， and the reason for this difference has not been reasonably explained， which has led to ambiguity and even misapplication of the PVG concept by guideline developers. By analyzing the background and purpose of PVGs， and the understanding of the PVG concept by domestic scholars， we proposed the term patient guidelines （PGs）. This refers to guidelines developed under the principles of evidence-based medicine， centered on health issues that concern patients， and based on the best available evidence， intended for patient use. Except for the general attribute of providing information or education， which is typical of common health education materials， PGs also provide recommendations and assist in decision-making， so PGs include both the patient versions of guidelines （PVG） as defined by the Guidelines International Network （GIN） and "patient-directed guidelines"， i.e. clinical practice guidelines resulting from the adaptation or reformulation of recommendations through clinical practice guidelines.
