ObjectiveTo investigate the influencing factors for traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) syndromes in pancreatic cancer by analyzing 608 cases, and to provide a theoretical reference for TCM syndrome differentiation and standardized treatment of pancreatic cancer. MethodsA total of 608 patients with a pathological or clinical diagnosis of pancreatic cancer who were admitted to Shanxi Institute of Traditional Chinese Medicine, The Affiliated Hospital of Shanxi University of Chinese Medicine, and Shanxi Provincial Hospital of Integrated Traditional Chinese and Western Medicine from January 2019 to December 2023 were enrolled, and TCM syndrome differentiation was performed. The chi-square test was used for comparison of categorical data between groups. The clinical data with statistical significance between groups were included in the regression analysis, and the unordered polytomous logistic regression model was used to investigate the influencing factors for the TCM syndrome of pancreatic cancer. ResultsFor the 608 patients with pancreatic cancer, common initial symptoms included abdominal pain (32.40%), abdominal distension (23.85%), fatigue (16.12%), and emaciation (10.03%), and the main clinical symptoms included poor appetite (75.97%), abdominal pain (67.27%), fatigue (61.84%), abdominal distension (57.40%), and emaciation (53.62%). There were significant differences between the patients with different TCM syndromes of pancreatic cancer in sex (χ2=62.823, P<0.001), disease duration (χ2=14.868, P=0.011), clinical stage (χ2=21.006, P<0.001), lymph node metastasis (χ2=2.205, P=0.032), surgery (χ2=38.008, P<0.001), chemotherapy (χ2=21.384, P<0.001), radiotherapy (χ2=17.510, P=0.004), and immunotherapy (χ2=18.573, P=0.002). The logistic regression analysis showed that male sex was a protective factor against Qi and blood deficiency syndrome (odds ratio [OR]=0.081, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.031 — 0.213, P<0.001), Qi stagnation and blood stasis syndrome (OR=0.100, 95%CI: 0.041 — 0.247, P<0.001), and syndrome of Yin deficiency with internal heat (OR=0.158, 95%CI: 0.057 — 0.444, P<0.001), while it was a risk factor for the syndrome of damp-heat accumulation (OR=2.378, 95%CI: 1.074 — 5.266, P=0.033); the course of the disease of<1 year was a protective factor against Qi and blood deficiency syndrome (OR=0.167, 95%CI: 0.073 — 0.383, P<0.001), syndrome of spleen-kidney Yang deficiency (OR=0.183, 95%CI: 0.089 — 0.378, P<0.001), and syndrome of Yin deficiency and internal heat (OR=0.164, 95%CI: 0.070 — 0.385, P<0.001); clinical stage Ⅰ/Ⅱ/Ⅲ was a risk factor for damp-heat accumulation (OR=2.793, 95%CI: 1.259 — 6.196, P=0.012) and Qi stagnation and blood stasis syndrome (OR=7.863, 95%CI: 2.808 — 22.020, P<0.001); lymph node metastasis was a risk factor for Qi and blood deficiency syndrome (OR=4.005, 95%CI: 1.477 — 10.861, P=0.006); surgical treatment was a risk factor for Qi and blood deficiency syndrome (OR=4.151, 95%CI: 1.916 — 8.995, P<0.001), syndrome of spleen-kidney yang deficiency (OR=5.352, 95%CI: 2.436 — 11.759, P<0.001), Qi stagnation and blood stasis syndrome (OR=2.334, 95%CI: 1.071 — 5.088, P=0.033), and syndrome of Yin deficiency and internal heat (OR=4.167, 95%CI: 1.789 — 9.707, P<0.001); chemotherapy was a protective factor against damp-heat accumulation (OR=0.188, 95%CI: 0.082 — 0.428, P<0.001); radiotherapy was a risk factor for damp-heat accumulation (OR=2.571, 95%CI: 1.151 — 5.746, P=0.021) and syndrome of Yin deficiency with internal heat (OR=8.384, 95%CI: 3.348 — 20.997, P<0.001); immunotherapy was a risk factor for Qi and blood deficiency syndrome (OR=2.114, 95%CI: 1.021 — 4.379, P=0.044). ConclusionSex, course of the disease, clinical stage, presence or absence of lymph node metastasis, surgery, chemotherapy, radiotherapy, and immunotherapy are the main influencing factors for the TCM syndrome of pancreatic cancer.

OBJECTIVE To evaluate the efficacy, safety and cost-effectiveness of toripalimab (Tor) combined with chemotherapy (CT) in the treatment of locally advanced or metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). METHODS PubMed, the Cochrane Library, Embase, Web of Science, CBM, CNKI, Wanfang Data, and Health Technology Assessment (HTA) related websites were searched to collect the HTA reports, systematic reviews/meta-analyses and pharmacoeconomic studies of Tor+CT in the treatment of locally advanced or metastatic NSCLC from database/website inception to March 31, 2025. After data extraction and quality evaluation, the results of the included studies were analyzed descriptively. RESULTS A total of eleven studies were included, involving five systematic reviews/meta-analyses, and six pharmacoeconomic studies. Among the five systematic reviews/ meta-analyses, two were of high quality, while there was one each of moderate, low, and very low quality. All six pharmacoeconomic studies were of good quality. In terms of efficacy, compared with CT, Tor+CT significantly improved patients’ progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (P<0.05). In addition, compared with ipilimumab+CT, durvalumab, durvalumab+tremelimumab and sugemalimab+CT, Tor+CT could also improve the PFS (P<0.05). In terms of safety, there was no significant difference in the incidence of grade≥3 adverse events between patients receiving Tor+CT and CT (P>0.05); while Tor+CT had a lower incidence of grade≥3 adverse E-mail: events, compared with camrelizumab+CT, pembrolizumab+ 3233255290@qq.com ipilimumab, nivolumab+CT and atezolizumab+CT (P<0.05).In terms of cost-effectiveness, Tor+CT treatment had certain cost-effectiveness advantages, compared with CT. CONCLUSIONS Compared with CT, other programmed death-1/programmed death-ligand 1 inhibitors alone, or their combination with CT, Tor+CT for the treatment of locally advanced or metastatic NSCLC has good efficacy, safety and cost-effectiveness.

Background The staff in centers for disease control and prevention (CDC) were at a great risk for psychological distress when they were faced with outbreak-related prevention and control work and routine tasks during the COVID-19 period. Psychological resilience and burnout are two key influencing factors on psychological distress. Objective To explore the status and mechanisms of psychological resilience, burnout, and psychological distress among CDC staff. Methods From September to October 2022, a cross-sectional survey was conducted in all CDC staff in Beijing, and 2228 CDC staff from 17 units (including 1 municipality-level CDC and 16 district-level CDCs) participated the questionnaire survey. The basic information questionnaire, Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale (CD-RISC-10) Chinese version, Maslach Burnout Inventory-General Survey (MBI-GS) Chinese version, and the 10-item Kessler Psychological Distress Scale (Kessler10) Chinese version were selected in our study. Mann-Whitney U test or Kruskal-Wallis H test was used to analyze the differences in the scores of psychological resilience, burnout, and psychological distress by demographic and sociological characteristics. The correlations among the three elements were analyzed by Spearman correlation analysis. Potential influencing factors of psychological distress of the CDC staff were evaluated by multiple linear regression. A potential mediating effect of psychological resilience-burnout-psychological distress was analyzed by the mediation package of R 4.2.0, and validated by Bootstrap method. Results Of 2228 questionnaires distributed, 2022 valid questionnaires were collected, and the recovery rate was 90.75%. The median (P25, P75) psychological distress score of CDC staff was 13.00 (8.00, 24.00), and the number of participants with psychological distress levels of 1, 2, 3, and 4 was 358 (17.71%), 546 (27.00%), 362 (17.90%), and 756 (37.39%), respectively. The median (P25, P75) psychological resilience score was 24.00 (20.00, 30.00) and the median (P25, P75) burnout score was 38.00 (25.00, 50.00). The results of the multiple linear regression showed that psychological resilience, burnout, caring for the elderly, having a chronic disease, and monthly income had independent influences on psychological distress (P<0.05), and emotional exhaustion, cynicism, and reduced personal accomplishment (reversed) in the case of burnout had a great effect on psychological distress (P<0.05). After controlling general demographic characteristic variables, total burnout score exerted a partial mediation effect on the relationship between psychological resilience and psychological distress, with a mediation effect value of −0.439 (95%CI: −0.483, −0.397), and a total mediation effect contribution rate of 60.89%. The two dimensions of burnout (emotional exhaustion and cynicism) played a partial mediating role between psychological resilience and psychological distress, with mediating effect contribution rates of 42.44% and 41.41%, respectively. Conclusion Psychological distress among CDC staff in Beijing was prominent during COVID-19. Psychological resilience can act directly on psychological distress or indirectly on psychological distress through burnout. Both emotional exhaustion and cynicism dimensions of burnout have a partial mediating role between psychological resilience and psychological distress. Increasing psychological resilience and decreasing burnout may reduce the occurrence of psychological distress.

AIM: To investigate the effect of electroacupuncture on the expression of matrix metalloproteinase-3(MMP-3), tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase-3(TIMP-3)and collagen type III alpha 1(Col3α1)in the retina of guinea pigs with lens-induced myopia.METHODS:A total of 80 guinea pigs were randomly divided into the normal control(NC)group, negative lens-induced myopia(LIM)group, electro-acupuncture(EA)group, and sham group, with 20 guinea pigs in each group. The NC group did not receive any intervention, the LIM, EA and the sham groups were all wearing -6.0 D lens in the right eye and no lens in the left eye. The EA group was given electroacupuncture stimulation at Hegu Point and temple, and guinea pigs in the sham group were given intervention at false points. The refraction was measured by optometry, the axial length was measured by A-ultrasound, and the changes in retinal tissue structure were observed by HE staining. Quantitative polymerase chain reaction(Q-PCR)and western blot(WB)were used to detect the expression of MMP-3, TIMP-3, and Col3α1 at mRNA and protein levels before modeling and at 2 and 4 wk after modeling. RESULTS:The axial length of the negative LIM group was significantly increased compared with the NC group at 2 and 4 wk after modeling(all P<0.05), and the diopter was significantly decreased(all P<0.05); the axial length of the eye in the EA group was decreased compared with the negative LIM group(all P<0.05), and the diopter was increased(all P<0.05). HE staining showed that the boundaries of retinal tissue in the NC group were obvious and arranged regularly. The retinal thickness, the thickness of the inner and outer nuclear layers, and the number of cells were reduced and irregularly arranged in the negative LIM group. The overall structure of the retina in the group EA was relatively perfect, the arrangement was more regular, and the morphological structure of each layer of the tissue did not appear obvious abnormalities. Q-PCR and WB detection results showed that the mRNA and protein relative expression levels of MMP-3, TIMP-3, and Col3α1 in the negative LIM group were significantly higher than those in the NC group(all P<0.05); the expression levels of the EA group was significantly decreased after intervention compared with the negative LIM group(all P<0.05).CONCLUSION: Electroacupuncture can delay axial growth in negative LIM guinea pigs, and downregulate negative LIM induced expression of MMP-3, TIMP-3, and Col3α1 in the retina.
