OBJECTIVE To evaluate the efficacy and safety of three aromatase inhibitors （exemestane， anastrozole， letrozole） for postmenopausal hormone receptor （HR）-positive early breast cancer. METHODS PubMed， the Cochrane Library， Embase， CNKI， Wanfang Data， VIP and SinoMed were searched to collect randomized controlled trials （RCTs） of the above three drugs in the treatment of postmenopausal HR-positive early breast cancer patients. The retrieval time limit was from the establishment of the database to October 25， 2024. After literature screening， data extraction and literature quality evaluation， network meta-analysis was performed by using RevMan 5.3 and Stata 18.0 software. RESULTS A total of 15 RCTs involving 44 055 patients were included. The results of network meta-analysis showed that the objective response rate of letrozole group was significantly higher than anastrozole group （P＜0.05）， and the order of surface under the cumulative ranking curve （SUCRA） from high to low was letrozole （85.6%）＞anastrozole （61.5%）＞exemestane （2.8%）. The disease-free survival rate of anastrozole group was significantly higher than exemestane and placebo groups （P＜0.05）， and the order of SUCRA from high to low was letrozole （85.8%）＞ anastrozole （67.3%）＞exemestane （41.4%）＞placebo （5.5%）. The total incidence of adverse reactions in anastrozole group was significantly higher than letrozole and placebo groups （P＜0.05）， and the order of SUCRA from high to low was exemestane （87.4%）＞letrozole （63.9%）＞anastrozole （47.0%）＞placebo （1.7%）. The results of subgroup analysis according to the course of treatment≥104 weeks were consistent with them. CONCLUSIONS Compared with anastrozole， letrozole has better efficacy and safety in the treatment of postmenopausal HR-positive early breast cancer， and the efficacy of exemestane is limited.

AIM:Using bioinformatics analysis methods to identify the hub genes involved in myocardial isch-emia-reperfusion injury(MIRI).METHODS:Firstly,the rat MIRI related dataset GSE122020,E-MEXP-2098,and E-GEOD-4105 were downloaded from the database.Secondly,differentially expressed genes(DEGs)were screened from each dataset using the linear models for microarray data(limma)package,and robust DEGs were filtered using the robust rank aggregation(RRA)method.In addition,the surrogate variable analysis(SVA)package was used to merge all datas-ets into one,and merged DEGs were screened using the limma package.The common DEGs were obtained by taking the intersection of the two channels of DEGs.Next,the protein-protein interaction(PPI)network of common DEGs was con-structed,and the hub genes were identified using the density-maximizing neighborhood component(DMNC)algorithm.The receiver operating characteristic curve(ROC)was plotted to evaluate the diagnostic performance of the hub gene.Then,the mRNA and protein expression levels of hub genes were detected in the rat MIRI model,and the literature re-view analysis was carried out on the involvement of hub genes in MIRI.Finally,the gene set enrichment analysis(GSEA)was performed on hub gene to further reveal the possible mechanism in mediating MIRI.RESULTS:A total of 143 robust DEGs and 48 merged DEGs were identified.After taking the intersection of the two,48 common DEGs were obtained.In the PPI network of common DEGs,5 hub genes were screened out,namely MYC proto-oncogene bHLH transcription fac-tor(MYC),prostaglandin-endoperoxide synthase 2(PTGS2),heme oxygenase 1(HMOX1),caspase-3(CASP3),and plasminogen activator urokinase receptor(PLAUR).The ROC results showed that the area under the curve values for all hub genes were greater than 0.8.MYC,PTGS2,CASP3,and PLAUR showed high mRNA and protein expression in rat MIRI,while there was no difference in mRNA and protein expression for HMOX1.The literature review revealed that among the 5 hub genes,only PLAUR has not been reported to be involved in MIRI.The GSEA results for PLAUR indicat-ed that its functional enrichment mainly focused on pathways such as NOD-like receptor signaling pathway,P53 signaling pathway,Toll-like receptor signaling pathway,apoptosis,and fatty acid metabolism.CONCLUSION:MYC,PTGS2,CASP3,HMOX1,and PLAUR are involved in the pathological process of MIRI.PLAUR is a potential hub gene that can mediate MIRI by regulating pathways such as NOD like receptor signaling,P53 signaling,Toll like receptor signaling,cell apoptosis,and fatty acid metabolism.The results can provide reference for further investigation into the molecular mechanisms and therapeutic targets of MIRI.

ObjectiveTo investigate the current status of secondary prevention of stable angina in patients with coronary heart disease in three regions of China， namely Henan Province， Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region， and Tianjin City， and analyze the the influencing factors. MethodsA cross-sectional study was conducted to include patients with stable angina with coronary heart disease in Henan， Tianjin and Xinjiang from August 10， 2020 to March 14， 2021. General information， traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） syndrome elements， prescriptions and other data of patients were collected， and clinical characteristics， blood pressure， blood lipid and blood glucose of patients were analyzed； the patients were divided into groups according to whether their blood pressure， blood lipid and blood glucose were up to standard. With the most common syndrome element as the main variable， region， age and gender as covariables， Logistic regression equation was incorporated to analyze the influencing factors for the patients' blood pressure， blood lipid and blood glucose being up to standard. ResultsA total of 1061 coronary heart disease patients with stable angina were included， including 658 in Henan， 210 in Xinjiang， and 193 in Tianjin. The clinical characteristics of patients in the three regions showed statistical different in age， sex， disease course， complication， blood pressure， blood lipid， blood glucose， smoking， drinking， living habits， and medication treatment （P＜0.05 or P＜0.01）. For the included patients， qi deficiency （79.55%， 844/1061） and blood stasis （39.96%， 424/1061） were the main syndrome elements. The overall compliance rate of blood pressure was 48.89% （506/1035）， blood lipids 12.68% （133/1049） and blood glucose 48.18% （504/1046）. Qi deficiency was the independent factor affecting the blood pressure of coronary heart disease patients with stable angina combined with hypertension （P = 0.029，95%CI ［1.048， 2.369］）， and the independent factors influencing the blood lipid standard of coronary heart disease patients with stable angina （P = 0.011， 95%CI ［1.133， 2.646］）， but not the independent factors affecting blood glucose standard in coronary heart disease patients with diabetes （P＞0.05）. ConclusionCoronary artery disease patients with stable angina have geographical variability in clinical characteristics and distribution of TCM syndrome elements， and the overall control of blood pressure， blood lipids， and blood glucose is poor， and qi deficiency syndrome is an independent risk factor affecting the control of blood pressure and blood lipids.

ObjectiveTo evaluate the efficacy of TCM health management based on tertiary management system for patients with myocardial infarction （MI）. MethodsA total of 277 patients with non-acute MI were enrolled and given comprehensive TCM health management strategies including health education， lifestyle adjustment， risk factors control， medication and TCM appropriate techniques management through a tertiary management system with "the patient as the core， village/community physicians as the main executive body， and tertiary TCM hospital specialists as the leading body"， for a period of 12 months by using a prospective single-arm cohort study. Through patient reporting and medical records surveys， various indicators before and after 12-month management were collected and compared. The primary efficacy indicators were readmission rate and recurrent exacerbation rate， and the secondary efficacy indicators included disease awareness-related indicators， lifestyle behavior-related indicators， cardiovascular risk factor-related indicators and Canadian cardiovascular society （CCS） cardiac function classification. ResultsA total of 255 patients completed the study and were included in the final analysis. The recurrent exacerbation and readmission rates of patients after management were 23.14% （59 cases） and 20.25% （49 cases）， respectively， significantly lower than 36.08% （92 cases） and 53.72% （130 cases） before management （P＜0.05）. Except for knowledge on diabetes diagnostic criteria with no significant difference before and after management （P＞0.05）， awareness of other knowledge with regard to the prevention and treatment of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases were improved after management （P＜0.01）， as well as the total score （P＜0.01）. In terms of daily life behaviors， the rates of salty diet， sweet diet and greasy diet were significantly lower than baseline， while the rate of moderate exercise was significantly higher （P＜0.05 or P＜0.01）； the rates of ongoing smoking and vigorous exercise were not significantly changed （P＞0.05）. For cardiovascular risk factors， patients' total cholesterol， low-density lipoprotein （LDL） cholesterol， triglycerides， fasting glucose， total depression assessment scale score， and total anxiety assessment scale score were significantly reduced after management （P＜0.01）. Systolic blood pressure and body mass index （BMI） were both higher after management （P＜0.05 or P＜0.01）， and there was no statistically significant difference in diastolic blood pressure （P＞0.05）. In terms of the cardiovascular disease risk factors reaching the standard levels， the rate of LDL cholesterol ＜1.8 mmol/L significantly increased （P＜0.01）， while the rate of BMI ＜24 kg/m² and the rate of systolic blood pressure ＜140 mmHg both decreased significantly （P＜0.05 or P＜0.01） from baseline； the diastolic blood pressure and rate of fasting glucose ＜7.0 mmol/L were not significantly changed （P＞0.05）. The patients' CCS cardiac function classification was significantly reduced （P＜0.05）. ConclusionTCM health management based on the tertiary management system can enhance MI patients' awareness of the disease， change poor lifestyle habits， reduce risk factors such as blood lipids and blood glucose， improve anxiety and depression， increase activity tolerance， and reduce their recurrence exacerbation and readmission rates， which is worthy of clinical promotion.

Organoids are a novel disease model that is self-assembled from stem cells or malignant tumors and is used in clinical research.They are similar to tissues and organs in the body and have partially functional 3D cell structures.There are two types of traditional models for liver cancer research,i.e.,in vivo models(animal models of liver cancer established by induction)and in vitro cell experiments using corresponding cell lines.Organoids have the advantages of the two types of traditional models and show unique advantages in tumor research.Traditional models cannot fully reflect the microenvironment of cells,which often leads to the inconsistency with clinical research findings,and the emergence of new research models provides a new direction for the research on liver cancer.This article reviews the research advances in liver cancer organoids,in order to provide a new perspective for future research on liver cancer.

Objective    To explore the safety and efficacy of transesophageal echocardiography (TEE)-guided percutaneous intervention for patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) in obese teenagers. Methods    From January 2018 to June 2019, 21 obese teenagers with PDA treated with femoral artery occlusion guided by TEE in the Department of Cardiac Surgery, Dalian Children's Hospital of Dalian Medical University were included in this study, including 13 males and 8 females aged 12.8-17.3 (15.1±1.7) years, with an average weight of 51.0-89.0 (73.4±10.1) kg. The operative effect was evaluated. Results    All patients successfully received the surgery, and none was changed to radiation-guided or thoracotomy ligation. The average operating time was 23.9±6.8 min, the average postoperative hospitalization time was 3.8±0.6 d. No peripheral vascular injury, intracardiac infection or pericardial effusion occurred. The mean follow-up time was 19.5±4.9 months, and the results of all reexaminations were good. Conclusion    For some PDA children with obesity, emphysema or thoracic malformation, it is difficult to block PDA by transthoracic ultrasound-guided percutaneous intervention, and TEE can avoid the interference of chest wall and lung qi, or other factors. It is an effective supplementary guidance method worthy of promotion.
