Objective To explore enteral nutrition support and analyze its influencing factors in elderly patients with ischemic stroke. Methods A total of 328 patients with ischemic stroke in General Hospital of Western Theater Command were enrolled for nutritional screening between July 2020 and February 2024. Corresponding nutritional support plans were selected to investigate the compliance of patients with enteral nutrition support. Patients were divided into a standard group (n=140) and a non-standard group (n=97) based on whether their calorie intake met the standard. The effects of different clinical characteristics on enteral nutrition support were explored, and logistic analysis was used to analyze the influencing factors of non-standard enteral nutrition support. Results In the 328 patients with ischemic stroke, proportions of total parenteral nutrition support, total enteral nutrition support, and parenteral/enteral nutrition support were 25.30%, 27.74% and 46.95%, respectively. The proportions of vomiting or regurgitation, gastric residual volume >100 mL, mechanical ventilation and use of antibiotics >2 in the non-standard group were higher than those in the standard group (P<0.05). Logistic analysis showed that the above clinical characteristics were risk factors influencing patients with enteral nutrition support and parenteral/enteral nutrition support. Conclusion Vomiting or regurgitation , gastric residual volume, mechanical ventilation, and amount of antibiotics used are important influencing factors of enteral nutrition support in patients. Clinicians should pay attention to the above clinical characteristics.

Cells undergo glucose metabolism reprogramming under the influence of the inflammatory microenvironment, changing their primary mode of energy supply from oxidative phosphorylation to aerobic glycolysis. This process is involved in all stages of inflammation-related diseases development. Glucose metabolism reprogramming not only changes the metabolic pattern of individual cells, but also disrupts the metabolic homeostasis of the body microenvironment, which further promotes aerobic glycolysis and provides favourable conditions for the malignant progression of inflammation-related diseases. The metabolic enzymes, transporter proteins, and metabolites of aerobic glycolysis are all key signalling molecules, and drugs can inhibit aerobic glycolysis by targeting these specific key molecules to exert therapeutic effects. This paper reviews the impact of glucose metabolism reprogramming on the development of inflammation-related diseases such as inflammation-related tumours, rheumatoid arthritis and Alzheimer's disease, and the therapeutic effects of drugs targeting glucose metabolism reprogramming on these diseases.

Heterotypic cell-in-cell structures(heCICs)mediate unique non-autonomous cell death,which are widely involved in a variety of important pathological processes,such as tumorigenesis,pro-gression and clinical prognosis.Methylenetetrahydrofolata dehydrogenase 2(MTHFD2),one of the key enzymes of one-carbon metabolism,is highly expressed in a variety of tumor cells.In this study,in order to investigate the effect of MTHFD2 on the formation of heCICs,liver cancer cells and immune cells were first labeled separately by live cell dyes,and the heCIC model was established by using fluorescence mi-croscopy for cell imaging and analysis.After transiently knocking down MTHFD2 in cells by RNAi,we found that the ability of PLC/PRF/5 and Hep3B to form heCICs with immune cells was significantly in-creased(all P<0.01).MTHFD2 recombinant expression plasmid was constructed by the homologous re-combination method,and MTHFD2 overexpression cell lines were further constructed.Then,the effect of MTHFD2 overexpression on the ability to form heCICs was detected by co-culturing the overexpression cell lines with immune cells.The results showed that the rate of heCIC formation was significantly re-duced after overexpression of MTHFD2(all P<0.001).In conclusion,this study demonstrated that MTHFD2 is a negative regulator of heCIC formation,providing a research basis for targeting MTHFD2 to promote heCIC formation and enhance the in-cell killing of immune cells.

Objective:To compare the efficacy and safety of flumatinib (FM)and imatinib (IM)as first-line treatment in newly-diagnosed patients with chronic myeloid leukemia in chronic phase (CML-CP ) in real world. Methods:A total of 84 newly-diagnosed CP-CML patients in our center from December 2019 to December 2022 were retrospectively analyzed.Among them,32 cases received FM as first-line treatment,and 52 cases received IM. Molecular response (MR),disease progression,survival and incidence of adverse events (AEs)were compared between the two groups.Results:At 3 months of treatment,the incidences of early molecular response (EMR ),MR2.0 and MR3.0 were 96.7%,70.0% and 20.0% in FM group,respectively,which were significantly higher than 77.1%,29. 2% and 0 in IM group (all P<0.05 ).At 6,9 and 12 months of treatment,the incidences of major molecular response (MMR)in FM group were 68.2%,85.7% and 90.0%,respectively,which were significantly higher than 22.9%,34.0% and 51.1% in IM group (all P<0.01).The median time to achieve MMR in FM group was 6(6-9)months,which was significantly shorter than 18(12-22)months in IM group (P<0.001 ).The 3-year progression-free survival rate and 3-year event-free survival rate in FM group were 100% and 68.8%,respectively,while in IM group were 98.1% and 55.8%.There were no significant differences between the two groups (P>0.05). The incidence of grade 3-4 hematologic AEs in FM group was 21 .9%,which was slightly lower than 25.0% in IM group,but the difference was not significant (P>0.05 ).Conclusion:In real clinical practice,FM as first-line treatment achieves MMR earlier than IM,and exhibits good safety profile in newly-diagnosed CML-CP patients,which potentially leads to improved long-term survival and treatment-free remission.
