Pulmonary complications, the most common postoperative complications of lung cancer, not only affect the quality of life of the patients after surgery but also increase the prognostic risks of postoperative recurrence and metastasis, threatening the life safety. At present, a multidisciplinary model of diagnosis and rehabilitation with integrated traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) and Western medicine has been initially formed under the guidance of the concept of rapid rehabilitation post operation for lung cancer. However, the treatment that only aims at shortening hospital stay and reducing the incidence of postoperative complications does not pay enough attention to the postoperative functional rehabilitation of the lung and the impact of follow-up adjuvant therapy, which affects the completeness of rehabilitation. This paper classifies the typical postoperative symptoms and manifestations of lung cancer into five groups: Lung system, emotion, digestive tract, pain, and nerve. On this basis, this paper summarizes the three core pathogeneses of postoperative complications of lung cancer as failure of Qi to ascend and descend leading to insecurity of defensive exterior, vessel block leading to Qi stagnation and fluid retention, and lung Qi deficiency leading to spleen and kidney deficiency. Accordingly, this paper proposes the treatment principle of protecting healthy Qi and treating Qi with the core of descending-tonifying-ascending-dispersing Qi and puts forward three treatment methods. The first is replenishing Qi and consolidating exterior, and expelling phlegm and regulating lung. The second is replenishing Qi and promoting blood flow to resolve stasis and relieving pain. The third is replenishing Qi and tonifying lung, and invigorating spleen and tonifying kidney. Furthermore, this paper elaborates on the pathogenesis and treatment principles of four common postoperative complications: Lung infection, pleural effusion, atelectasis, and bronchopleural fistula. On the basis of Western medical treatment, the TCM treatment characteristics of treating symptoms in the acute phase and eradicating the root cause in the chronic phase should be played. While dispelling the pathogen, measures should be taken to protect the healthy Qi, including tonifying lung Qi, regulating spleen Qi, and replenishing kidney Qi. This study summarizes the pathogenesis and treatment strategy of common postoperative complications of lung cancer according to the principle of protecting healthy Qi and treating Qi, aiming to provide guidance for the future treatment of postoperative complications of lung cancer.

BACKGROUND:Chlorfenapyr is used to kill insects that are resistant to organophosphorus insecticides.Chlorfenapyr poisoning has a high mortality rate and is difficult to treat.This article aims to review the mechanisms,clinical presentations,and treatment strategies for chlorfenapyr poisoning. DATA RESOURCES:We conducted a review of the literature using PubMed,Web of Science,and SpringerLink from their beginnings to the end of October 2023.The inclusion criteria were systematic reviews,clinical guidelines,retrospective studies,and case reports on chlorfenapyr poisoning that focused on its mechanisms,clinical presentations,and treatment strategies.The references in the included studies were also examined to identify additional sources. RESULTS:We included 57 studies in this review.Chlorfenapyr can be degraded into tralopyril,which is more toxic and reduces energy production by inhibiting the conversion of adenosine diphosphate to adenosine triphosphate.High fever and altered mental status are characteristic clinical presentations of chlorfenapyr poisoning.Once it occurs,respiratory failure occurs immediately,ultimately leading to cardiac arrest and death.Chlorfenapyr poisoning is difficult to treat,and there is no specific antidote. CONCLUSION:Chlorfenapyr is a new pyrrole pesticide.Although it has been identified as a moderately toxic pesticide by the World Health Organization(WHO),the mortality rate of poisoned patients is extremely high.There is no specific antidote for chlorfenapyr poisoning.Therefore,based on the literature review,future efforts to explore rapid and effective detoxification methods,reconstitute intracellular oxidative phosphorylation couplings,identify early biomarkers of chlorfenapyr poisoning,and block the conversion of chlorfenapyr to tralopyril may be helpful for emergency physicians in the diagnosis and treatment of this disease.

Objective To explore the influencing factors of over active bladder(OAB)in patients with cerebral small vessel disease(CSVD)and its correlation with CSVD imaging markers.Meth-ods A total of 163 elderly CSVD patients admitted in our hospital from January 2021 to Decem-ber 2022 were enrolled and divided into OAB group(37 cases)and non-OAB group(126 cases)based on the results of OAB rating scale.Mini-mental State Examination(MMSE)score,Fazekas scale score,and total CSVD burden score were recorded and compared between the two groups.Results The OAB group had older age,higher urinary frequency,larger proportions of nocturia,urgency,and urge incontinence ratio,increased Fazekas score,periventricular white matter hyper-intensity(PWMH)score and deep white matter hyperintensity(DWMH)score,and elevated total CSVD burden score and lower MMSE score than the non-OAB group(P<0.05,P<0.01).PWMH score and DWMH score were risk factors for the occurrence of OAB(P<0.01).The OAB score was positively correlated with Fazekas score,PWMH score,and DWMH score in the CSVD patients(r=0.533,P=0.001;r=0.462,P=0.004;r=0.398,P=0.015).The occurrence of urgency urinary incontinence was positively correlated with Fazekas score and PWMH score in the CSVD patients(r=0.352,P=0.033;r=0.346,P=0.036).Conclusion PWMH and DWMH are risk factors for OAB occurrence in CSVD patients.

Objective To investigate the effect of the socket-shield technique(SST)concurrent with immediate im-plant placement and provisionalization(IIPP)in the aesthetic restoration of anterior teeth.Methods A case of maxil-lary anterior tooth stumps with a thin labial bone wall was treated with SST for preservation of labial soft and hard tissue fullness,combined with an immediate implant placement and immediate provisional crown for restoring the shape of the tooth and gingival molding.Results Immediate implant placement and provisionalization restored the morphology and function of the affected tooth in the shortest possible time.The patient's labial soft and hard tissue contours in the affected tooth area were well preserved in the 18-month follow-up after the application of the SST,which presented a better aesthetic result.The literature review indicates that the indications for SST are unrestorable maxillary anterior teeth,whose dental,periodontal and periapical tissues are healthy and intact.In the esthetic zone,root shielding is effec-tive in maintaining the soft and hard tissue contour on the labial side of the implant.However,there is no consensus on the technical details of SST,such as the ideal coronal height and thickness of the shield,and the management of the gap between the shield and the implant.Thus,more clinical studies and histologic evidence are needed to provide a refer-ence for clinical decision-making.In addition,digital technology can improve the accuracy of implant placement and shield preparation.Conclusion The correct application of SST combined with IIPP in the esthetic zone can ensure es-thetic results.However,more high-quality evidence-based medical evidence is needed for its long-term efficacy,and in-dications should be strictly controlled during clinical application.

Objective:To investigate the application value of nectin-4 targeting radiotracer 68Ga-N188 in the diagnosis of pancreatic cancer. Methods:The prospective study was conducted. The clinicopathologic data of 16 patients diagnosed as pancreatic cancer on enhanced computed tomography (CT) who were admitted to the Peking University First Hospital from August to December 2022 were collected. There were 9 males and 7 females, aged (62±8)years. All patients underwent 18F-flurodeoxyglucose ( 18F-FDG) and 68Ga-N188 positron emission tomography (PET)/CT examination. Observation indicators: (1) distribution of 68Ga-N188 in different tissues and tumor primary lesion of patients; (2) expression of Nectin-4 and uptake of 68Ga-N188 in pancreatic cancer; (3) comparison of examination results between 68Ga-N188 and 18F-FDG PET/CT. Measurement data with normal distribution were represented as Mean± SD, and comparison between groups was conducted using the independent sample t test. Count data were described as absolute numbers or percentages. Results:(1) Distribution of 68Ga-N188 in different tissues and tumor primary lesion of patients. Results of PET/CT examination showed that in 1 hour after injection, the maximum standard uptake value (SUVmax) and mean standard uptake value (SUVmean) of 68Ga-N188 in fat, muscle, skin, and brain tissues of 16 patients were 0.40±0.16 and 0.25±0.09, 0.68±0.20 and 0.44±0.12, 0.39±0.14 and 0.28±0.11, 0.09±0.04 and 0.05±0.02, respectively. In the tissues of the esophagus, liver, spleen, and pancreas, the above indicators were 1.53±0.48 and 1.16±0.31, 1.49±0.45 and 0.91±0.30, 1.40±0.30 and 1.02±0.24, 1.24±0.31 and 0.96±0.25, respectively. In tumor primary lesion, the above indicators were 3.28±1.02 and 2.14±0.62, respectively, showing significant differences in SUVmax and SUVmean compared with pancreatic tissue ( t=8.03, 6.75, P<0.05). The tumor background ratio in tumor primary lesion based on SUVmax was 1.82±0.58. (2) Expression of Nectin-4 and uptake of 68Ga-N188 in pancreatic cancer. Results of immunohistochemical staining in 16 patients showed that there were 7 patients with high Nectin-4 expression and 9 patients with low Nectin-4 expression. Results of PET/CT examination showed that the SUVmax of 68Ga-N188 in tumor primary lesion of the 7 patients with high Nectin-4 expression and 9 patients with low Nectin-4 expression were 3.77±1.10 and 2.64±0.68, showing a significant difference between them ( t=2.64, P<0.05). The SUVmax of 18F-FDG in tumor primary lesion of the 7 patients with high Nectin-4 expression and 9 patients with low Nectin-4 expression were 6.73±3.24 and 6.43±3.45, showing no significant difference between them ( t=0.17, P>0.05). (3) Comparison of examination results between 68Ga-N188 and 18F-FDG PET/CT. Of the 16 patients, cases with positive results of tumor primary lesion on 68Ga-N188 and 18F-FDG PET/CT were 14 and 11, respectively, for the 14 pancreatic cancer patients diagnosed by postoperative histopathology. Among them, cases with positive results of tumor primary lesion on 68Ga-N188 and 18F-FDG PET/CT were 3 and 1 for the 3 pancreatic cancer patients receiving evaluation for chemotherapy. The SUVmax of 18F-FDG in tumor primary lesion of the 3 patients with chemotherapy and the 11 patients without chemotherapy were 2.80±0.69 and 6.97±2.11, showing a significant difference between them ( t=3.29, P<0.05). The SUVmax of 68Ga-N188 in tumor primary lesion of the 3 patients with chemotherapy and the 11 patients without chemotherapy were 3.38±1.12 and 2.93±0.50, showing no significant difference between them ( t=0.66, P>0.05). Cases with positive results of lymph node metastases in 68Ga-N188 and 18F-FDG PET/CT were 6 and 4, respectively, for the 6 pancreatic cancer patients diagnosed with lymph node metastases by postoperative histopathology, and the SUVmax of 68Ga-N188 and 18F-FDG in lymph node metastases were 2.25±1.12 and 4.02±1.27. Conclusion:68Ga-N188 PET/CT can be used for imaging diagnosis of tumor primary lesion and lymph node metastases of pancreatic cancer.
