OBJECTIVE To investigate a dynamic monitoring of drug consumption （DMDC） model based on the seasonal Mann-Kendall trend test， aiming to provide scientific evidence for the efficient and macroscopic monitoring of drug use. METHODS A monitoring list of key outpatient drugs was established based on the top 20% of drugs ranked by sales volume in the outpatient pharmacy in October 2024. A DMDC model based on the Mann-Kendall trend test was constructed using the monthly usage data of key outpatient drugs from November 2021 to October 2024， aiming to eliminate the impact of seasonal fluctuations and analyze the temporal trends in drug consumption. Taking mucolytic expectorants， triazole derivatives for dermatophytosis， and single-agent hydroxymethylglutaryl coenzyme A （HMG-CoA） reductase inhibitors as examples， the monitoring effectiveness of the DMDC model was demonstrated， and its performance was compared with that achieved by the traditional sequential growth rate ranking method. RESULTS A total of 215 drug varieties were included in the monitoring list， and DMDC models were successfully established for all of them. Among these， 119 showed a significant increasing trend （P＜0.05， S′＞0）. The model successfully monitored the monthly consumption of mucolytic expectorants， triazole derivatives for dermatophytosis， and single- agent HMG-CoA reductase inhibitors. The precision and recall rates of the DMDC model for identifying abnormal drug use were 60.7% and 85.0%， respectively， both significantly higher than those of the sequential growth rate ranking method （8.3% and 15.0%， respectively） （χ2＝20.114， P＜0.001； χ2＝19.600， P＜0.001）. CONCLUSIONS DMDC model based on the seasonal Mann-Kendall trend test can effectively identify long-term trends in drug consumption， eliminate seasonal interference， enhance monitoring accuracy and management efficiency， and is suitable for the dynamic monitoring of drug consumption.

Purpose: This study aimed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of gemcitabine and cisplatin (GP) regimen in combination with immune checkpoint inhibitor sintilimab as neoadjuvant therapy for muscle-invasive bladder cancer (MIBC) patients and the feasibility of the following selective bladder sparing surgery. Materials and Methods: Patients with histopathologically confirmed urothelial carcinoma without distant metastases (T2-4a, N ≤ 1, M0, American Joint Committee of Cancer 8th) and with adequate organ function will be enrolled. The therapeutic regimen was sintilimab 200 mg once on day 8, gemcitabine 1,000 mg/m2 and cisplatin 35 mg/m2 once on days 1 and 8, every 21 days for four cycles. The primary endpoint was pathologic complete response (pCR, pT0N0) rate. The secondary end points were ypT < 2 rate, R0 resection rate, event-free survival, and safety. Results: From May 4, 2020, to May 20, 2023, 55 patients were enrolled. Forty-six patients were evaluated for efficacy. Among the 42 patients who underwent surgery, 16 patients (38.0%) achieved pCR. Thirty-three patients (78.6%) achieved pT < 2. With a median follow-up of 15.7 months, the 1-year event-free survival was 91.3%. Notwithstanding the poor pathological baseline characteristic of a high T3-T4a proportion (39.1%), a promising bladder preservation (including 22 patients transurethral resection of bladder tumor, 5 patients partial cystectomy, and 4 surveillances) rate was achieved (67.4%). The most common grade ≥ 3 treatment-related adverse events was neutropenia (n=15, 27.3%), which was related to chemotherapy. There were no grade 3 immune-related adverse events. Conclusion Neoadjuvant GP plus sintilimab is a promising regimen for MIBC patients, with relatively high pT < 2 rate and triggering the emerging roles for the multi-disciplinary team decision-making for bladder sparing surgery.

ObjectiveTo explore the function and related molecular mechanisms of magnoflorine against colon cancer via network pharmacology， molecular docking， and in vitro cell experiments. MethodsIn this study， the canonical SMILES of magnoflorine was obtained from the PubChem database， and the potential targets of magnoflorine were predicted by the Swiss Target Prediction database， while the disease targets of colon cancer were obtained from the DisGeNET， GeneCards and OMIM databases. The intersecting targets between magnoflorine's predicted targets and colon cancer disease targets were taken， and a protein-protein interaction （PPI） network was constructed and analyzed. The DAVID online database was employed to conduct Gene Ontology （GO） and KEGG pathway enrichment analyses on core targets. The top five key targets screened were docked with magnoflorine using AutoDock software. Finally， cellular experiments including CCK-8 assays， EdU experiments， cell scratch assays， and Transwell assays were conducted to validate the results from network pharmacology and molecular docking. Results44 key targets of magnoflorine in resisting colon cancer were acquired. The molecular docking results showed that magnoflorine had a strong binding activity with the core target signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 （STAT3） in the top five of the PPI network. Cellular experiments confirmed that magnoflorine could inhibit the proliferation and migration of colon cancer cells by suppressing the JAK/STAT3 signaling pathway. ConclusionMagnoflorine may inhibit the proliferation and migration of colon cancer cells by regulating the JAK/STAT3 signaling pathway.

OBJECTIVE To provide scientific evidence and practical references for refined antimicrobial stewardship in multi- branch medical institutions. METHODS Data of antibiotic use density （AUD） of inpatients as well as physician-level case mix index （CMI） were collected from the Liji Road main campus and Panlongcheng branch campus of our hospital from August 2023 to March 2026. The two-factor decomposition method was adopted to decompose total AUD variation into a level effect and structural effect. Grey relational analysis （GRA） was performed to quantify the correlation degree between ward CMI， physician CMI and physician AUD， so as to identify wards and physicians requiring targeted key intervention in different campuses. A refined antimicrobial management framework for multi-branch hospitals was constructed and implemented based on the above analytical results. An interrupted time series （ITS） model incorporating seasonal dummy variables was applied. The research period was divided into pre-intervention stage （August 2023 to March 2024） and post-intervention stage （April 2024 to March 2026）. The temporal changing trends of AUD in two campuses were compared to evaluate management efficacy. RESULTS Driving factors for AUD variation presented significant heterogeneity between the two campuses. AUD variation in the main campus was dominated by level effect， while AUD variation in the branch campus was jointly affected by structural effect and level effect. The grey relational degrees of ward CMI and physician CMI with physician AUD were 0.901 and 0.882， respectively. After refined management implementation， AUD decreased by 7.48 DDDs/（100 bed·days） and 20.54 DDDs/（100 bed·days） in the main campus and branch campus， respectively； the rising trends of AUD in both campuses reversed to declining trends after intervention. CONCLUSIONS Driving factors of AUD variation under the multi-branch hospital model show obvious inter-campus heterogeneity. CMI is highly correlated with AUD. The refined management system developed via AUD attribution decomposition and CMI correlation analysis matches the differentiated clinical characteristics of multi- branch hospitals and effectively improves the precision of antimicrobial stewardship.

Objective To investigate the mechanism of Wenjing Decoction in treating endometriosis(EMT)using bioinformatics methods and in vitro experiments.Methods The active components and corresponding targets of Wenjing Decoction were obtained from the TCMSP database,while EMT-related targets were identified using the GEO database.Functional enrichment analysis was conducted on the targets to predict core targets for treating EMT with Wenjing Decoction.Molecular docking was performed on core targets-drug ligands,and in vitro experiments validated the findings.Results Through screening the TCMSP database,117 active components of Wenjing Decoction were identified,corresponding to 248 targets;5 312 EMT-related differential genes were gathered from GEO database,identifying 97 potential targets of Wenjing Decoction for treating EMT,with core targets being IL6,TNF and EGFR.Functional enrichment analysis of EMT differential genes showed enrichment in pathways such as neuroactive ligand-receptor interaction,MAPK signaling pathway,endocytosis,calcium signaling pathway,autophagy and PI3K-Akt signaling pathway.Molecular docking showed that IL6,TNF,EGFR bind stably to their corresponding drug ligands.In vitro experiments indicated that Wenjing Decoction could inhibit the PI3K/Akt/mTOR pathway,promote LC3 Ⅰ to LC3 Ⅱ conversion,enhance the expression of Beclin-1,and reduce P62 expression.Moreover,Wenjing Decoction could hinder the expression of the endometriosis-specific biomarker CA125,decrease EGFR,IL-6 and TNF-α expressions in ectopic endothelial cells,inhibiting proliferation.Conclusion Wenjing Decoction can treat EMT through multiple pathways and targets,with the key mechanism being the reversal of autophagy inhibition via down-regulating of the PI3K/Akt/mTOR pathway.

The “Technical Guideline for Epidemic Prevention and Control Disinfection in Large-Scale Events”(hereinafter referred to as “the Guideline”), organized and compiled by the National Disease Control and Prevention Administration, was officially released in April 2024. This guideline aims to ensure the effective implementation of large-scale group activities, mitigate the impact of infectious disease outbreaks on such events, and maintain hygiene and safety standards at event venues. During the compilation process, data were systematically collected in alignment with epidemic prevention requirements and disinfection principles, incorporating research findings from domestic and international disinfection practices. Information was gathered through field investigations, expert consultations in epidemiology and disinfection, and roundtable discussions with representatives from organizations responsible for disinfection operations at large-scale events, thereby ensuring the scientific rigor and practical applicability of the content. The Guideline provides comprehensive technical disinfection guidance for relevant authorities and event organizers, addressing critical aspects such as disinfection protocols, operational principles, emergency response strategies, and technical specifications. By standardizing hygiene assurance measures for large-scale events, including considerations of participant demographics, venue characteristics, and event scale, the guideline establishes a framework to proactively minimize the risk of infectious disease transmission.

Objective:To identify candidate strains of Nontoxigenic Clostridioides difficile (NTCD) with potential for intervention in Clostridioides difficile infection (CDI) and analyze their phenotypic characteristics. Methods:A total of 713 Clostridioides difficile strains from various sources were systematically collected nationwide between 2015 and 2023. This included 649 strains isolated from human fecal samples and 64 strains isolated from the fecal samples of farmed animals. NTCD strains were preliminarily screened through toxin gene detection and antibiotic sensitivity test, and then NTCD candidate strains with potential for intervention in CDI were screened by a series of in vitro experiments, including MLST, sporulation, germination, adhesion, motility, and biofilm formation ability. Ultimately, the virulence genes and antimicrobial resistance genes of the candidate strains were comprehensively analyzed to rigorously assess their safety profiles. Results:Among 713 strains of C. difficile from different sources, 10 strains were initially screened out, which were non-toxin-producing and sensitive to antibiotics. MLST showed that seven strains were from the Clade1 branch and three strains were of a novel type. The results of sporulation and germination showed that SD59, SD178, SJZ17, and WZ142 had stronger sporulation and germination abilities. The adhesion of 10 strains was high, and the adhesion rate was between 72.93% and 99.32%. The motility of all strains was different, and the motility of SD178, SD59 and SJZ17 was stronger. The biofilm-forming ability of all strains was weak. SD59, SD178 and SJZ17 carried a limited number of virulence and resistance genes, thereby posing a relatively low safety risk. Conclusion:Three NTCD strains are successfully selected as potential effective NTCD strains to interfere with CDI.

Immunogenic cell death(ICD)is a form of cell death that can activate the immune system,especially in the treatment of cancer.ICD can enhance the recognition of tumors by the immune system and the release of damage associated molecular patterns(DAMPs),to achieve tumor cell death.Oncolytic viruses(OVs)can selectively infect and kill tumor cells without damaging normal cells.OVs are type Ⅱ ICD inducers that induce ICD in tumor cells by targeting the endoplasmic reticulum.Here,we review the characteristics of ICD and the mechanism of ICD induction by OVs.We also review the latest clinical progress involving ICD and discuss future treatment strategies for tumors.

Objective"Lie flat"has recently become a buzz word describing a specific psychological state in some individuals.However,its psychological meaning and mechanisms remain unclear.Lack of motivation under certain conditions may be one of the key psychological characteristics of this condition.Methods Sixteen male SD rats were randomly assigned to two food-restriction levels(90%and 80%of baseline weight,respectively),and subjected to a sucrose-pellet self-administration task.The establishment of the model is divided into three stages.The rats were trained to self-administer sucrose pellets in a high-reward learning stage and in a low-reward learning stage.We then assessed"lie flat"behavior in a preference-test stage,in which rats could choose between high-reward-and low-reward-paired nose-pokes in a discrete choice procedure.Results Combining self-feeding training with Western blot,the results showed that:(1)rats showed significantly decreased nose-poke behavior for low-reward,i.e."lie flat"behavior,but not for high-reward,when≥90%of the maximal reward was obtained in the high-reward task and the effort(X)in the low-reward task increased to the breaking point.(2)Dopamine D1R expression in the NAc was significantly higher in the"lie flat"group compared with the"not lie flat"rats,while D2R expression was similar in both groups.Conclusions Rats can show"lie flat"behavior,and up-regulation of D1R expression in the NAc may be a key part of the molecular basis responsible for this motivation deficiency in"lie flat"behavior.These results extend our understanding of"lie flat"behavior,and provide a new paradigm for the study of its mechanism.
