OBJECTIVE To report the diagnosis and treatment process of 1 case of Streptomyces thermoviolaceus pneumonia， and provide reference for the diagnosis and treatment of this type of infection by combining literature on Streptomyces pneumonia. METHODS A case study was conducted on a patient with S. thermoviolaceus pneumonia treated at the First Affiliated Hospital of Army Medical University. Additionally， a systematic literature review of Streptomyces pneumonia cases was performed. RESULTS The patient with S. thermoviolaceus presented with left lung consolidation and mass-like opacity. Initial diagnosis via matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry failed， but 16S rRNA gene amplification and sequencing confirmed S. thermoviolaceus as the causative pathogen. Six-month therapy with Amoxicillin capsules （1 g orally， three times daily） resulted in near-complete lesion resolution. The literature analysis of Streptomyces pneumonia revealed that 13 patients with Streptomyces pneumonia were included （including the patient reported in the article）， age range of 18-77 years， more males （8 cases）， and mostly suffering from underlying diseases. In terms of clinical symptoms， all enrolled cases exhibited cough， and some cases were accompanied by variable dyspnea. Imaging findings included that there was no characteristic predilection site for Streptomyces pneumonia lesions， and CT images commonly showed lung consolidation and bilateral nodules. Definitive diagnosis relied on 16S rRNA sequencing. Treatment regimens included tetracyclines， β -lactam drugs combined with enzyme inhibitors， ceftriaxone， aminoglycosides， macrolides， or carbapenems， administered for prolonged duration （6 months）. Follow-up indicated a good prognosis， and only one mortality occurred. CONCLUSIONS 16S rRNA gene sequencing should be prioritized for diagnosing S. pneumonia. Effective antimicrobial options include tetracyclines，β-lactam drugs combined with enzyme inhibitors， ceftriaxone， aminoglycosides， macrolides， and carbapenems. Prolonged therapy correlates with favorable prognosis.

Objective To investigate the treatment of female bladder neck obstruction by 1470nm laser transurethral modified enlarged female bladder neck obstruction(FBNO).Methods The clinical data of 34 patients with FBNO from January 2019 to November 2021 were retrospectively analyzed.The patient underwent a 1470nm laser transurethral modified enlarged bladder neck incision.The 1470nm laser was used to vaporise the bladder neck at 12 o'clock(lithotomy),and the incision site was expanded along the bladder neck to 9 o'clock and 3 o'clock to form a semi-circular surgical wound.The patients were followed up for complications,scored form of Bristol female lower urinary tract symptoms questionnaire(BFLUTS-SF)urination symptom subscale,quality of life(QoL)score and the maximum urinary flow rate(Qmax),detrusor pressure at maximum flow rate(PdetQmax),post-void residual(PVR)were reviewed at 1,4,and 10 months after operation.Results After 10 months of follow-up,the subjective indexes of BFLUTS-SF and QoL scores were significantly improved compared with those before operation(P<0.001),and the objective indexes of Qmax,PdetQmax,and PVR were significantly improved compared with those before operation(P<0.001).Two patients had mild urgency urinary incontinence and urinary tract infection symptoms half a month after operation,and the symptoms were improved after anti-infection and pelvic floor rehabilitation treatment.During the follow-up period,there were no complications such as vesicovaginal fistula,stress urinary incontinence,or recurrent bladder neck obstruction.Conclusion 1470nm laser transurethral modified enlarged bladder neck resection can effectively relieve bladder neck obstruction without significant postoperative complications,with high safety and good patient satisfaction.

Objective:To investigate the clinical phenotype and genetic characteristics of patients with Fabry disease caused by a GLA variant, IVS4+919G>A.Methods:It was a prospective study. Fabry disease screening was conducted among high-risk population in Ninghai from October 2021 to August 2023. Those children with decreased α-galactosidase enzyme activity<2.40 μmol/(L·h) or elavated Lyso-GL-3 level>1.10 μg/L in dried blood spot (DBS) method underwent GLA genetic testing for diagnosis confirmation. Meanwhile, family screening was carried out. A proband and his family members diagnosed with Fabry disease were research subjects. The clinical and genetic characteristics of patients with Fabry disease caused by the GLA variant (IVS4+919G>A) were analyzed.Results:The female proband aged 9.8 years with pain in both lower limbs as the initial symptom was found to have a heterozygous GLA variant IVS4+919G>A among 102 patients. In family screening, there were 4 family members (proband's father, elder sister, elder male cousin and elder female cousin) with Fabry disease and a family member (proband's fifth aunt) with a GLA variant. Among these 4 diagnosed family members, the elder male cousin of the proband, a boy aged 13.2 years had a heterozygous GLA variant, IVS4+919G>A with intermittent pain in both lower limbs as the initial symptom. The proband′s father had knee joint pain. The proband′s elder sister had decreased vision and his elder female cousin had no obvious symptoms. The proband′s fifth aunt with a GLA variant had decreased vision.Conclusions:High-risk screening in children and family screening are helpful for early diagnosis and treatment of Fabry disease. Neuropathic pain may be a early symptom in children with Fabry disease caused by the GLA variant, IVS4+919G>A.

OBJECTIVE To study the general situation and characteristics of the adverse drug reactions(ADRs) associated with polatuzumab vedotin(combined with bendamustine and rituximab), so as to provide reference for clinical rational drug use. METHODS The clinical data of all patients who were hospitalized at Tianjin Cancer Hospital Airport Hospital and treated with polatuzumab vedotin during hospitalization from January 2021 to August 2022 were collected by searching Hospital Information System. The basic patient information, medication status, incidence of adverse reactions, etc, were collected and analyzed. RESULTS A total of 7 patients were enrolled in the analysis, which there were 4 males(57.1%) and 3 females(42.8%). The toxicity profile of polatuzumab vedotin consisted mainly of neutropenia and leukopenia. ADRs mainly occured within 3 months after administration, and it could be recovered after symptomatic treatment or observation, and there was no death due to ADRs.

The effective recovery rate of the 2 rounds of expert correspondence questionnaires were 15/15, the expert authority coefficients were 0.860 and 0.875, and the Kendall coordination coefficients were 0.155 and 0.172, and the differences were statistically significant ( χ2 = 97.70, 105.91, both P<0.01). The final rehabilitation nursing program for TKA patients with kinesiophobia included 3 primary indexes, 8 secondary indexes and 25 tertiary indexes. Conclusions:The rehabilitation nursing program for TKA patients with kinesiophobia constructed based on COM-B theoretical model is scientific and practical, and can provide a practical basis for clinical staff.

β-elemene has been observed to exert inhibitory effects on a multitude of tumors,primarily through multiple pathways such as the inhibition of cancer cell proliferation and the induction of apoptosis.The present study is designed to elucidate the role and underlying mechanisms of β-elemene in the thera-peutic intervention of non-small cell lung cancer(NSCLC).Both in vitro and in vivo experimental models corroborate the inhibitory potency of β-elemene on NSCLCs.Our findings indicate that β-elemene fa-cilitates the maturation of miR-127-3p by inhibiting CBX8.Functioning as an upstream regulator of MAPK4,miR-127-3p deactivates the Akt/mTOR/p70S6K pathway by targeting MAPK4,thereby inducing autophagy in NSCLCs.Additionally,β-elemene augments the packaging of miR-127-3p into exosomes via SYNCRIP.Exosomal miR-127-3p further stimulates M1 polarization of macrophages by suppressing ZC3H4.Taken together,the detailed understanding of the mechanisms through which β-elemene in-duces autophagy in NSCLCs and facilitates M1 polarization of macrophages provides compelling scientific evidence supporting its potential utility in NSCLC treatment.

Objective:To systematically integrate qualitative research on the real experience and management of cancer pain in adult cancer patients, so as to provide reference for improving the management of cancer pain in adult cancer patients and reducing their cancer pain.Methods:Qualitative research literature on the real experience and management of cancer pain in cancer patients was systematically searched in Cochrane Library, PubMed, Web of Science, CINAHL, Embase, ProQuest, Scopus, China Biomedical Database, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, Wanfang Data, and VIP. The search period was from database establishment to August 2023. The literature was evaluated using the quality evaluation criteria for qualitative research of the Joanna Briggs Institute Evidence-Based Health Care Center. The aggregation Meta-synthesis method was used to integrate and summarize research results.Results:A total of 16 articles were included, and 78 results were extracted to form 11 categories, which were summarized into four integrated results of the cognitive status of adult cancer patients towards cancer pain, the impact of cancer pain on patients, self-management strategies for cancer pain, and medical experiences related to cancer pain.Conclusions:Adult cancer patients face obstacles in alleviating cancer pain, such as lack of awareness of cancer pain, negative impacts, inadequate self-management strategies, and poor medical experience. Patients need to improve their self-management strategies, and the country and medical institutions should provide comprehensive support to enable patients and clinical medical and nursing staff to manage cancer pain.
