OBJECTIVE To evaluate the efficacy and safety of PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors for neoadjuvant treatment of bladder cancer， and to provide evidence-based reference for clinical treatment. METHODS Retrieved from PubMed， Cochrane Library， Embase， American Society of Clinical Oncology Meeting Library， CNKI， VIP and Wanfang database， etc.， the randomized controlled trials （RCTs）， non-RCT， case-control studies， cohort studies， etc. about PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors for neoadjuvant treatment of bladder cancer were collected from the inception to Jan 31st， 2023. After literature screening， data extraction and quality evaluation， RevMan 5.3 software was used to perform meta-analysis of single-group rates； sensitivity analysis and publication bias analysis were conducted using Stata12 software. RESULTS A total of 25 studies were included in this discussion， involving 940 patients. The results of meta-analysis showed that the pathologic complete response （pCR） rate was 32% [OR＝0.32， 95%CI （0.22， 0.45）， P＝0.006]， downstaging rate was 52% [OR＝0.52， 95%CI （0.45， 0.60）， P＝0.55]， and the incidence of ≥grade 3 immune-related adverse events （irAEs） was 16% [OR＝0.16， 95%CI （0.11， 0.22）， P＜0.000 01]. Subgroup analysis showed that the patients receiving PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors alone had a pCR rate of 25% and a incidence of Grade≥3 irAEs of 9%； the patients receiving combined immunotherapy had a pCR rate of 29% and a incidence of Grade≥3 irAEs of 28%； the patients receiving PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors combined with chemotherapy had a pCR rate of 43% and a incidence of Grade≥3 irAEs of 12%； PD-L1 positive patients had a pCR rate of 44%， and PD-L1 negative patients had a pCR rate of 25%. The results of the sensitivity analysis showed that the study was robust. The results of the publication bias analysis showed that there was no significant publication bias. CONCLUSIONS PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors are effective and safe for adjuvant treatment of bladder cancer.

In addition to the typical respiratory symptoms, COVID-19 patients present with clinical manifestations of cardiovascular system damage, and they are at higher risk of intensive care or mortality. The mechanism of COVID-19's impact on the cardiovascular system is still unclear, therefore we need to pay close attention to it. Based on the existing research, this paper focused on the concurrent characteristics of the cardiovascular system diseases, summarized the possible mechanisms of cardiovascular system damage, including the coronavirus invaders directly into cardiomyocytes and its conduction system, with complications or accompanying conditions such as cytokine storm, imbalance of oxygen supply and demand, drug influence, stress and other damage to cardiovascular system. Meanwhile, current clinical manifestations and treatment methods of COVID-19 were summarized.

Intrinsically disordered proteins (IDPs) are proteins or protein regions that fail to get folded into definite three-dimensional structures but participate in various biological processes and perform specific functions. Defying the traditional protein "sequence-structure-function" paradigm, they enrich the protein "structure-function" diversity. Ubiquitous in organisms, they show extreme hydrophilicity, charged amino acids, and highly repetitive amino acid sequences, with simple arrangement. As a result, they feature highly variable binding affinities and high coordination, which facilitate their functions. IDPs play an important role in cell stress response, which can improve the tolerance to a variety of stresses, such as freezing, high salt, heat shock, and desiccation. In this study, we briefed the characteristics, classifications, and identification of IDPs, summarized the molecular mechanism in improving cell stress resistance, and described the potential applications.

Objective    To investigate the job satisfaction, emotional state and related factors of medical staff participating in online consultation of West China Internet Hospital during the COVID-19 epidemic. Methods    Through literature review and expert consultation (Delphi method), the questionnaire was developed, and the online consulting medical staff of West China Hospital of Sichuan University were invited to conduct the questionnaire survey from 26 January to 19 June 2020, and finally the statistical analysis was summarized. Results    A total of 132 valid questionnaires were retrieved. Of the 132 subjects, 127 people (96.2%) expressed satisfaction or special satisfaction with the online consulting office format; 103 respondents (78.0%) said that online consulting did not affect or completely did not affect the work and life; 81 people (61.4%) consulted online more than 5 days a week, and 108 people (81.8%) worked within 2 hours a day; the vast majority (97.7%) of the research subjects were satisfied with the content of the training materials and the related support work of the coordination group. Only 29 (22.0%) of the study participants believed that the epidemic caused negative emotions, mainly due to the severity of the epidemic. Conclusion    The online consulting medical staff are satisfied with the office form, training materials and coordination work group of the COVID-19 epidemic, and think that it does not affect their work and life. 22.0% of medical staff have negative emotions, and the severity of the epidemic is   the main reason.

With the heavier burden of cardiovascular disease, an abundance of papers emerge every year in the research hotspots, which cover a wide range of types and content. In order to let readers interested in the cardiovascular field quickly understand the research hotspots and research frontier, it is necessary to sort out and summarize the research topic in time. According to the discipline classification, we screened papers in cardiovascular field from the Essential Science Indicators (ESI) hot papers published in 2019. Methods such as bibliometrics, statistical description, hierarchical induction, analysis and interpretation were used a step further to reveal the context and characteristics of research in the field of cardiovascular diseases, summarize the latest progress and development direction in this field, and provide information and hints for the expansion of future research directions. A total of 297 papers were finally included, which were mainly in the field of clinical medicine; The country with the most publications was the United States, while China ranked the fifth in terms of contribution; the research institution with the highest number of published papers was Harvard University;

s Objective: The characteristics of locoregional rectal cancer recurrences following total mesorectal excision (TME) were not clear previously. This study aimed to analyze and help determine the optimal radiotherapy clinical target volume. Methods: The clini-cal data of 134 patients who had recurrence and metastasis following TME without radiotherapy between January 2012 and Novem-ber 2018 in our hospital were retrospectively analyzed. The Chi-square test was used to evaluate the relationship between lymph node metastasis and clinicopathological factors, such as the location of primary tumors and tumor stage. The correlations between different types of lymphatic drainage of rectal cancer were also tested. Results: In total, 134 patients were enrolled in this study. The median time to relapse was 15 months. The incidences of anastomotic, rectal and mesorectal, pelvic presacral space, abdominal presacral space, internal iliac node, external iliac node, obturator node, inguinal node, and ischiorectal fossa recurrences were 42.5% (57/134), 26.9% (36/134), 25.4% (34/134), 7.5% (10/134), 34.3% (46/134), 3.7% (5/134), 0.7% (1/134), 9.7% (13/134), and 8.2% (11/134), re-spectively. Compared with mid-lower rectal cancer, upper rectal cancer was more prone to metastasis in the abdominal presacral space (19.0% vs. 5.6%, P=0.028). Patients with inguinal lymph node metastasis were more likely to harbor external iliac node metasta-sis (23.1% vs. 1.7%, P=0.006). Conclusions: There is a great difference in the recurrence patterns between upper and mid-lower rectal cancer. As a result, the clinical target volumes of radiation therapy for upper and mid-lower rectal cancer should be defined separately. Optimizing the clinical target volume of radiotherapy will be of great value in the future.
