[摘 要] 目的：探讨胃肝样腺癌（HAS）的临床病理特征与免疫微环境异质性，筛选预后标志物，阐释其高侵袭性与疗效差的机制，为精准诊疗策略提供理论依据。方法:​​ 回顾性收集2013年1月至2025年5月期间海军军医大学第一附属医院与第二附属医院收治的65例HAS患者的临床信息及病理资料。采用免疫组织化学技术检测HAS​​肝样分化标志物、神经内分泌标志物​​等分子表达情况，通过Kaplan-Meier生存分析法明确与预后相关的靶点。利用多色免疫荧光技术鉴定肿瘤区域内免疫细胞亚群分布情况，以阐明其免疫微环境特征。结果：65例患者中，男性54例（83.1%），女性11例（16.9%），中位年龄68岁。肿瘤好发于贲门（40%），其次为胃窦（32.3%）和胃体（27.7%）。中位随访时间23.18个月，15例患者死亡，46例生存，4例失访。HAS的胃镜及手术标本大体观呈灰白色实性质硬肿物，镜下可见中低分化胃腺癌与肝细胞癌（HCC）样分化区交错分布。表达神经内分泌相关分子的HAS患者呈现出更多的淋巴结转移数量及更短的总生存期。免疫微环境解析显示，HAS总体缺乏免疫细胞浸润，呈现“冷肿瘤”特征；免疫细胞主要聚集于胃癌腺体周围区域，而在HCC样分化区域罕见淋巴细胞浸润。结论：HAS侵袭性强，根治性手术是主要治疗手段；神经内分泌转化提示不良预后，是个体化治疗的关键标志；免疫细胞浸润缺乏，可能是其免疫治疗响应不佳的原因。

Radiotherapy is a crucial treatment modality for head and neck tumors. However, while effectively killing tumor cells, it significantly disrupts the homeostasis of the oral microecology, which is closely associated with various complications such as radiation-induced oral mucositis. Literature review indicates that as radiotherapy doses accumulate and treatment durations extend, the richness and diversity of the oral microbiota show a declining trend, with the genus Streptococcus decreasing most markedly. In contrast, radiotherapy selectively promotes the proliferation of bacterial phyla such as Proteobacteria and Bacteroidetes, which are rich in opportunistic pathogens. Mechanistically, radiotherapy activates the nuclear factor-kappa B pathway, triggering chronic inflammation and oxidative stress, damaging the epithelial barrier, suppressing local immunity, and causing damage to organs such as the salivary glands. It can also induce systemic diseases via the oral-gut axis, forming a multi-level, interconnected pathogenic network. In terms of interventions, treatment strategies including probiotics and prebiotics have shown promising efficacy against side effects such as radiation-induced oral mucositis. Saliva-based oral microbiota transplantation is an emerging strategy that is expected to become widely utilized for restoring oral microecological balance. Existing interventions provide preliminary pathways for clinical practice, but this field still faces several key scientific questions. The association between oral microecology and systemic diseases remains largely correlative, lacking causal evidence. Furthermore, critical parameters for oral microbiota transplantation, such as donor screening criteria, transplantation protocols, and long-term safety, are not yet well-defined. Therefore, future research should focus on conducting large-scale clinical trials to establish standardized protocols and safety evaluation systems for oral microecological interventions, and explore combined treatment therapies such as probiotics, prebiotics, and microbiota transplantation to advance the development of personalized precision modulation. These will enable more effective management of radiotherapy-induced oral microecological dysbiosis and improve treatment outcomes and quality of life for patients with head and neck tumors.

The choroidal vascularity index(CVI)is a quantitative structural parameter derived from optical coherence tomography(OCT)images. It is defined as the ratio of the luminal area to the total choroidal area, which characterizes alterations in the structural proportion between choroidal vascular lumens and stroma, and indirectly indicates changes in choroidal status to a certain extent. With the development of enhanced depth imaging optical coherence tomography(EDI-OCT), CVI has been increasingly applied in ophthalmic research and clinical practice.Measurements of CVI exhibit excellent repeatability and reliability. Combined with the noninvasive nature of EDI-OCT, CVI is an extremely valuable assessment tool for clinical ophthalmic research and routine clinical practice. CVI can quantify proportional changes between the choroidal luminal area and total choroidal area, and better reflects relative variations in choroidal vascular and stromal components compared with choroidal thickness alone. In recent years, CVI has been widely applied to multiple ocular diseases including age-related macular degeneration(ARMD), central serous chorioretinopathy(CSC), diabetic retinopathy(DR), and high myopia. In addition to the diseases themselves, various ocular surgeries and procedures can also affect CVI. Current evidence suggests that changes in CVI may be associated with factors such as postoperative inflammatory response, choroidal hemodynamic alterations, vascular permeability changes, and intraocular pressure fluctuations. However, discrepancies remain among studies regarding the direction and duration of these changes and their relationship with visual outcomes. This review summarizes the effects of ocular surgeries and procedures on CVI and further discusses its clinical interpretation, existing controversies, and future research directions, aiming to provide a reference for perioperative assessment of choroidal structural changes and prognostic evaluation.

Photoacoustic microscopy(PAM)is an emerging, non-invasive, in vivo imaging modality that merges optical and acoustic principles. It offers high-resolution and high-contrast visualization of various ocular tissue structures and functional information, making it suitable for studying a wide range of ophthalmic diseases such as corneal neovascularization, macular degeneration, and diabetic retinopathy. The multi-wavelength illumination capability of PAM makes it particularly valuable for early disease screening and dynamic physiological monitoring. In stem cell tracking, PAM enables the dynamic monitoring of transplanted cells through contrast agent labeling. Moreover, when combined with multimodal imaging techniques like optical coherence tomography(OCT), PAM can enhance the detection accuracy and diagnostic capacity for ocular diseases. However, PAM still requires optimization in terms of imaging speed and contrast agent safety. This review summarizes the fundamental principles and development of PAM, explores its applications in specific ophthalmic diseases, and analyzes the challenges and optimization directions from animal experiments to clinical applications. PAM holds great promise for playing a more significant role in ophthalmic diagnosis and treatment.

BACKGROUND: Lung cancer has the highest mortality rate among all malignant tumors, and non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) accounts for about 80%-85% of all lung cancers. Lobectomy and lymph node dissection are one of the most important treatment methods, and lymph node dissection, as an important part, has attracted much attention. And its mode and scope of dissection may affect postoperative complications, particularly the occurrence of chronic cough. The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of lymph node dissection on postoperative chronic cough in patients with NSCLC undergoing lobectomy, and to provide clinical evidence for optimizing surgical strategy and reducing postoperative chronic cough. METHODS: A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of 365 NSCLC patients who underwent lobectomy at the First Affiliated Hospital of University of Science and Technology of China from December 2020 to December 2023. The relationship between clinical characteristics and postoperative chronic cough was analyzed. The Chinese version of the Leicester Cough Questionnaire (LCQ-MC) scores were collected from the patients at 2 time points: 1 day before surgery and 8 weeks after surgery. Patients were divided according to lymph node dissection methods, to explore the relationship between lymph node dissection and chronic cough after lobectomy. Additionally, patients were divided into chronic cough and non-chronic cough groups based on the presence of postoperative chronic cough, to investigate whether perioperative data, lymph node dissection methods, and lymph node dissection regions were influencing factors. RESULTS: Patients undergoing lobectomy were more likely to have chronic cough after surgery in the systematic lymph node dissection group than in the lymph node sampling group (P<0.05). LCQ-MC scale evaluation showed that the psychological, physiological, social and total score of the patients in systematic lymph node dissection group were significantly lower than those in lymph node sampling group (P<0.05). Multivariate analysis showed that anesthesia time, operation site, lymph node dissection method, whether to perform upper mediastinal lymph node dissection, number of upper mediastinal lymph node dissection, whether to perform lower mediastinal lymph node dissection and total number of lymph node dissection were independent risk factors for postoperative chronic cough in NSCLC patients (P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS When NSCLC patients underwent lobectomy, lymph node sampling was associated with a significantly lower risk of chronic cough than systematic lymph node dissection. Dissecting lymph nodes in the upper and lower mediastinal regions and the number of lymph nodes dissected may increase the risk of postoperative cough and reduce the quality of life of patients after surgery.

Concurrently, ongoing developments in treatment modalities have expanded the options available for both patients and clinicians. The challenge now lies in making informed decisions to achieve individualized precision medicine, which merits thorough exploration. This article aims to review the latest research on personalized treatment strategies for early-stage HCC, providing a reasonable reference and valuable insights for clinicians.

The liver is the most common anatomical site for hematogenous metastases of colorectal cancer. Hepatic resection is the preferred treatment for colorectal cancer liver metastasis (CRLM). However, a disappointingly small proportion of patients are deemed suitable for surgical resection upon initial consultation. Failure to adequately address these metastatic tumors results in a dire 5-year survival rate of less than 5%. In recent times, thermal ablation, a minimally invasive procedure aimed at controlling local tumor progression, has undergone rigorous validation and garnered recognition for its effectiveness and safety in managing CRLM. This article endeavors to review the advancements in research concerning thermal ablation in the treatment of CRLM, exploring its efficacy, safety profile, and the promising avenues for its clinical application.

Thoracolumbar spine fracture often leads to severe pain, functional impairments, and neurological deficits, for which open reduction and internal fixation can effectively restore the spinal structural stability. Open decompression and reduction with internal fixation can help relieve spinal cord compression and improve spinal function in cases of concomitant cord injury. Although spinal stability can be restored through surgery, patients often face chronic pain and functional impairments postoperatively. A postoperative rehabilitation program is critical in optimizing therapeutic outcomes, reducing complications, and minimizing the risk of secondary injuries. However, current rehabilitation methods, such as physical therapy, functional training, and pain management, are confronted with problems in clinical practice, including significant variation in efficacy, poor patient adherence, and prolonged rehabilitation period. There is an urgent need for a unified rehabilitation strategy to address these problems. To this end, the Spinal Trauma Group of the Orthopedic Physicians Branch of the Chinese Medical Association and the Spine Health Professional Committee of the Chinese Human Health Technology Promotion Association organized experts from relevant fields to formulate Evidence-based guidelines for rehabilitation treatment after internal fixation of thoracolumbar spine fracture in adults ( version 2025) by integrating evidences from clinical researches and advanced rehabilitation concepts at home and abroad. A total number of 14 recommendations concerning the rehabilitation treatment with multimodal analgesia, psychological intervention, deep vein thrombosis prevention, core muscle and extremity exercise, appropriate use of braces, early weight-bearing, device-aided rehabilitation exercise, neuroregulatory therapy, rehabilitation team were put forward, aiming to standardize the post-operative rehabilitation process following internal fixation, promote the functional recovery, and enhance patients′ quality of life.
