OBJECTIVE To systematically evaluate the methodological quality of the postoperative chemotherapy guidelines/ consensuses for ovarian epithelial tumor. METHODS A search was conducted across databases including PubMed， Embase， Web of Science， CBM， VIP， Chinese Medical Journal Data， Wanfang Data， and CNKI， as well as the official websites of GIN， NICE， Medlive， AHRQ， CSCO， ASCO， and NCCN. The search period was from the establishment of the databases/websites to March 10， 2025. The quality of the included guidelines/consensus was evaluated by using the AGREE-Ⅱ tool. RESULTS A total of 16 guidelines/consensuses were included. The domain scores of AGREE-Ⅱ evaluation were as follows： scope and purpose of 85.07%， participants of 47.92%， rigor of development of 57.49%， clarity of presentation of 88.02%， applicability of 8.20%， and independence of 53.39%. Among them， 14 were recommended at grade B and 2 were recommended at grade C. The subgroup analysis by different countries/regions and different types of studies showed that the scores for participants， rigor of development， and independence of the guidelines/consensuses in China were significantly lower than foreign countries （P＜0.05）； the scores for participants and rigor of development of the guidelines were significantly higher than consensuses （P＜0.05）. The guideline/ consensus recommendation results indicated that grade B guidelines/consensus recommend platinum-based combination chemotherapy as the preferred adjuvant chemotherapy regimen for stage Ⅰ high-grade serous carcinoma patients；platinum-based combination chemotherapy±bevacizumab was recommended as the preferred adjuvant chemotherapy regimen for stage Ⅱ-Ⅳ high- grade serous carcinoma patients and for platinum-sensitive recurrent high-grade serous carcinoma patients； non-platinum single- agent chemotherapy±bevacizumab was recommended as the preferred chemotherapy regimen for platinum-resistant recurrent high- grade serous carcinoma patients. CONCLUSIONS The overall quality of postoperative chemotherapy guidelines/consensuses for ovarian epithelial tumor is not high. The methodological quality of guidelines/consensuses in China is still lagging behind that of foreign countries. The recommendations differ from those in foreign countries. It is recommended to improve the aspects of participants， rigor of development， and independence， to recommend treatment plans based on the different stages of ovarian cancer， and develop guidelines/consensuses that align with China’s national conditions.

Objective To investigate the impact of anti-reflux modified duodenal exclusion surgery on glucose metabolism in rats with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), and to elucidate the role of the duodenum in maintaining glucose homeostasis. MethodsForty male Sprague-Dawley rats aged 5 weeks were fed a high-fat diet and induced with T2DM using low-dose streptozotocin. Thirty-six rats that met the T2DM model criteria were randomly divided into three groups: the simple duodenal exclusion surgery group (DE group), the anti-reflux modified duodenal exclusion group (MDE group), and the sham operation group (SO group), with 12 rats in each group. Gastroenterography was performed 4 weeks after surgery, and the body weight, fasting blood glucose levels, and serum glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) concentrations were measured before surgery and at 1, 2, 4, and 8 weeks post-surgery. Eight weeks post-surgery, the rats were euthanized, and a 1 cm segment of the biliopancreatic loop was collected from each group for pathological sectioning and HE staining to observe the intestinal mucosal villus length under an optical microscope. Results Gastroenterography showed that there was significant reflux of the contrast agent into the duodenal lumen in the DE group, while no reflux was observed in the MDE group. At one week post-surgery, the body weights of rats in all three groups significantly decreased compared to before surgery (P<0.05), and then the body weights of all groups increased over time, with no significant differences between the groups (P>0.05). Compared with the SO group, the fasting blood glucose levels in the MDE and DE groups significantly decreased at all time points post-surgery (P<0.05), while GLP-1 concentrations significantly increased (P<0.05). The fasting blood glucose levels in the MDE group were lower than those in the DE group at all time points post-surgery (P<0.05), but there were no significant differences in serum GLP-1 concentrations between the MDE and DE groups (P>0.05). Regarding intestinal mucosal morphology, the villus lengths of the biliopancreatic loops in the MDE group were significantly shorter than those in the DE and SO groups (P<0.05). Conclusion Anti-reflux modified duodenal exclusion surgery effectively improves glucose metabolism in T2DM rats by preventing the reflux of chyme into the diverted duodenum, thereby enhancing its hypoglycemic effect.

Objective:To develop college students' proactive aggression questionnaire (CPAQ) and test its reliability and validity.Methods:From March 2023 to April 2024, a questionnaire survey was conducted among 1 552 college students(618 individuals in Sample 1, 783 individuals in Sample 2, 151 individuals in Sample 3 (retested after a 6-month interval), and 49 individuals in Sample 4 (randomly selected from Sample 3)).The reliability and validity of CPAQ were assessed using SPSS 24.0 and Mplus 8.3 software through item analysis, exploratory factor analysis, confirmatory factor analysis, internal consistency reliability, test-retest reliability, compatibility validity, discriminant validity, and empirical validity.Results:The results of the project analysis showed that the 33 items in the CPAQ were significantly correlated with the total score( r=0.25-0.78, P<0.05), and item scores between the high and low group were significantly different (all P<0.001). Exploratory factor analysis retained 28 items, which belonged to three dimensions of proactive aggression (instrumental motivation, moral inhibition, and moral disengagement). The results of confirmatory factor analysis showed that the three-dimensional model of the questionnaire was well fitted ( χ2/ df=3.25, CFI=0.96, TLI=0.95, RMSEA=0.05, SRMR=0.06). The Cronbach's α coefficients for the total score of CPAQ and its sub dimensions were 0.93, 0.95, 0.89 and 0.75, respectively(all P<0.05). The test-retest reliability was 0.64, 0.63, 0.67 and 0.60, respectively(all P<0.01). In the compatibility validity test, the instrumental motivation dimension score was positively correlated with the proactive aggression dimension score of reactive-proactive aggression questionnaire(RPQ)( r=0.50, P<0.05), while moral inhibition dimension was negatively correlated with empathy and guilt scores( r=-0.30, -0.39, P<0.05). The dimension of moral disengagement was positively correlated with the score of the moral disengagement scale( r=0.58, P<0.05). In the discriminant validity test, the correlation of CAPQ and RPQ reactive aggression dimension score was not significant( r=0.08, P=0.16). In the criterion related validity test, the correlation coefficients between the score of CAPQ and each calibration questionnaire and scale were 0.70-0.83. In the empirical validity test, there was a significant difference in the different CPAQ score groups for proactive aggressive behavior(high group: (1.16±0.18), low group: (1.04±0.08), t=2.60, P<0.05). Conclusion:CPAQ has good discrimination, reliability, and validity, which could be used as a tool to measure proactive aggressive behavior among college students.

Objective:To investigate the effects of different small monitor unit (MU) beam deletion optimization method in the CyberKnife treatment planning system on the calculated planned dose to brain tumors.Methods:A total of 17 patients with brain metastases treated in our hospital from June, 2021 to February, 2022 were selected for this study. A treatment plan was designed for each patient using the multiPlan system in the CyberKnife VSI system as the group without optimization. To improve the efficiency, the generated original plans should be optimized first by deleting some small MUs, forming an experience group and an optimization group for each patient. For the experience group, beams below 30 MU were deleted according to experience. For the optimization group, beams below the MU value calculated based on the second derivative method were deleted. Finally, the parameters of the two groups were statistically compared. The main evaluation parameters included the node number, the beam number, the total number of MUs, the estimated treatment duration, doses to 2% and 95% planning target volumes (PTV D2 and PTV D95), average dose to PTV ( Dmean), average dose to brain tissue ( Dmean-Brain), conformity index (CI), new conformity index (nCI), gradient index (GI), coverage, and the maximum doses to the brainstem and left and right lens ( Dmax-BS, Dmax-LL, and Dmax-RL), and the average doses to the dose shells 20 mm and 40 mm away from PTV (Shell20 and Shell40). Results:The two optimization method met the requirements for the prescription dose delivery to more than 98% PTV. There were statistical differences in the node number ( H = 7.97, P< 0.05) and estimated treatment duration ( H = 6.60, P < 0.05) among the group without MP optimization, the experience group, and the optimization group, with the estimated treatment duration and node number of the optimization group less than those of the group without MP optimization ( P < 0.05). There were no statistically significant differences in other parameters among the three groups ( P > 0.05). The PTV was moderately positively correlated with the treatment duration ( r=0.79, P < 0.01) and beam number ( r=0.78, P < 0.01) of the experience group, and was also moderately positively correlated with the treatment duration ( r=0.69, P < 0.01) and beam number ( r=0.71, P < 0.01) of the optimization group. Conclusions:For the CyberKnife planning of heads, the small MU beam deletion optimization method based on the second derivative can further shorten the treatment duration while ensuring no significant differences in the distribution of doses to organs at risk and targets. Moreover, this method is more effective in optimizing the plans for a large PTV volume.

Objective To investigate the value of endoscopic carbon nanoparticles labeling technique assisted in situ resection after neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy(nCRT)for middle and low locally advanced rectal cancer(LARC).Methods From January 2020 to January 2023,46 cases of middle or low LARC were selected for endoscopic injection of carbon nanoparticles suspension to label the lower edge of the tumor before nCRT,and laparoscopic anterior resection of the rectum was performed after nCRT.The main observations were the visualization of carbon nanoparticles marker during the operation,the length of each area(primary tumor area,tumor regression scar,distal resection margin,and regression area of lower edge of tumor)of surgical specimens and the positive rate of distal resection margins.Results The median interval between injection of carbon nanoparticles suspension and surgery was 105(77-182)d in the46 cases.Carbon nanoparticles remnants were observed on the rectal mucosal surface in all the patients after nCRT by endoscopy.During laparoscopic anterior rectal resection surgeries,carbon nanoparticles marker exposure on the surface of the rectal intrinsic fascia observed in 41 cases(89.1%),of which38 cases were judged as good exposure(the width of marker area≤1.5 cm,which assisted the operator accurately determining the distal surgical margins)and 3 cases were judged as inferior exposure(a larger range of black staining whereas in situ resection of the tumor still achievable).In another 5 cases,the carbon nanoparticles marker could not be observed and were judged as exposure failure.Intraoperative cryopathology showed that all distal resection margins were negative.Measurement of 30 surgical specimens with identifiable primary tumor area showed that the length of resected intestinal canal was 17.9(10.1-25.7)cm,the diameter of primary tumor area was(4.3±0.8)cm,the diameter of scar after tumor regression was 2.5(0.8-4.8)cm,and the length of regression of tumor lower margin was 1.0(0-2.9)cm.The length of distal resection margins in middle rectal cancer(n =17)was3.4(1.5-4.3)cm and in low rectal cancer(n =13)was1.6(0.5-2.8)cm.Conclusion Application of carbon nanoparticles labeling technology before nCRT for rectal cancer can effectively mark the lower margin of the primary tumor in a long time and assist surgeons to precisely remove the primary tumor area.

Tumor is a serious threat to human health. At present, surgical resection, chemoradiotherapy, targeted therapy and immunotherapy are the main therapeutic strategies. Monoclonal antibody has gradually become an indispensable drug type in the clinical treatment of cancer due to its high efficiency and low toxicity. Phage antibody library technology (PALT) is a novel monoclonal antibody preparation technique. The recombinant immunoglobulin variable region of heavy chain (VH)/variable region of light chain (VL) gene is integrated into the phage vector, and the antibody is expressed on the phage surface in the form of fusion protein to obtain a diverse antibody library. Through the process of adsorption-elution-amplification, the antibody library can be screened to obtain the antibody molecule with specific binding antigen as well as its gene sequence. PALT has the advantages of short antibody production cycle, strong plasticity of antibody structure, large antibody yield, high diversity and direct production of humanized antibodies. It has been used in screening tumor markers and preparation of antibody drugs for breast cancer, gastric cancer, lung cancer and liver cancer. This article reviews the recent progress and the application of PALT in tumor therapy.

Background Formaldehyde and benzene homologues are common environmental pollutants, and their neurotoxicity has aroused widespread concern. Objective To investigate the effect of taurine on cognitive impairment after exposure to formaldehyde and benzene analogues in young rats. Methods Twenty four-week old SD rats were randomly divided into four groups, with six rats in each group: control group (clean air), model group (5 mg·m⁻³ formaldehyde + 5 mg·m⁻³ benzene + 10 mg·m⁻³ toluene + 10 mg·m⁻³ xylene), low-dose taurine intervention group (5 g·L⁻¹ taurine + mixture of formaldehyde and benzene analogues), and high-dose taurine intervention group (10 g·L⁻¹ taurine + formaldehyde and mixture of benzene analogues), and the exposure was administered by oral and nasal aerosol inhalation for 28 d. At the end of exposure, the learning and memory ability of rats in each group was measured by Morris water maze test. After the behavioral test, the rats were anesthetized and neutralized, and the brain tissue was harvested for histopathological and molecular biological tests. The apoptosis rate of neurons in hippocampal CA1 area was detected by Tunel assay, and the expression levels of apoptosis-related proteins such as caspase 3, bax, and bcl-2 in hippocampal tissue were detected by Western blotting. Results The growth and development of rats in each group were good during inhalation. During the Morris water maze experiment, the escape latencies of rats in the taurine intervention groups were not different from that in the control group (P>0.05) from day 3 to day 5 of training, while the escape latency of rats in the model group was significantly higher than that in the control group (P <0.05). The number of crossing platform and the target quadrant residence time in the high-dose taurine intervention group were not different from those in the control group (P>0.05), while the two variables in the model group and low-dose taurine intervention group were significantly lower than those in the control group (P <0.05). The apoptotic rates of neurons in the hippocampal CA1 area of rats in the control group, model group, and low-dose and high-dose taurine intervention groups were 5.11%, 18.87%, 9.39%, and 4.63%, respectively. The apoptotic rate in the model group was higher than those in the control group and low-dose and high-dose taurine intervention groups (P<0.05). The expression levels of caspase 3, bax, and bcl-2 in the hippocampus of rats in the low-dose and high-dose taurine intervention groups showed no difference compared with the control group (P>0.05). The expression levels of caspase 3 and bax in the model group were higher than those in the control group and low-dose or high-dose taurine intervention groups (P<0.05), and the expression levels of bcl-2 was lower (P<0.05). Conclusion The mixed exposure to formaldehyde and benzene analogues can damage the learning and memory ability of young rats, and increase the apoptosis of neurons in hippocampal CA1 region. Taurine can reverse the damage induced by formaldehyde and benzene analogues.

The estimated new cases of breast cancer (BC) patients were 2.26 million in 2020, which accounted for 11.7% of all cancer patients, making it the most prevalent cancer worldwide. Early detection, diagnosis and treatment are crucial to reduce the mortality, and improve the prognosis of BC patients. Despite the widespread use of mammography screening as a tool for BC screening, the false positive, radiation, and overdiagnosis are still pressing issues that need to be addressed. Therefore, it is urgent to develop accessible, stable, and reliable biomarkers for non-invasive screening and diagnosis of BC. Recent studies indicated that the circulating tumor cell DNA (ctDNA), carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA), carbohydrate antigen 15-3 (CA15-3), extracellular vesicles (EV), circulating miRNAs and BRCA gene from blood, and the phospholipid, miRNAs, hypnone and hexadecane from urine, nipple aspirate fluid (NAF) and volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in exhaled gas were closely related to the early screening and diagnosis of BC. This review summarizes the advances of the above biomarkers in the early screening and diagnosis of BC.

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the application of surgical strategies for the treatment of cervical ossification of the posterior longitudinal ligament (OPLL) involving the C ₂ segment. METHODS: The literature about the surgery for cervical OPLL involving C ₂ segment was reviewed, and the indications, advantages, and disadvantages of surgery were summarized. RESULTS: For cervical OPLL involving the C ₂ segments, laminectomy is suitable for patients with OPLL involving multiple segments, often combined with screw fixation, and has the advantages of adequate decompression and restoration of cervical curvature, with the disadvantages of loss of cervical fixed segmental mobility. Canal-expansive laminoplasty is suitable for patients with positive K-line and has the advantages of simple operation and preservation of cervical segmental mobility, and the disadvantages include progression of ossification, axial symptoms, and fracture of the portal axis. Dome-like laminoplasty is suitable for patients without kyphosis/cervical instability and with negative R-line, and can reduce the occurrence of axial symptoms, with the disadvantage of limited decompression. The Shelter technique is suitable for patients with single/double segments and canal encroachment >50% and allows for direct decompression, but is technically demanding and involves risk of dural tear and nerve injury. Double-dome laminoplasty is suitable for patients without kyphosis/cervical instability. Its advantages are the reduction of damage to the cervical semispinal muscles and attachment points and maintenance of cervical curvature, but there is progress in postoperative ossification. CONCLUSION OPLL involving the C ₂ segment is a complex subtype of cervical OPLL, which is mainly treated through posterior surgery. However, the degree of spinal cord floatation is limited, and with the progress of ossification, the long-term effectiveness is poor. More research is needed to address the etiology of OPLL and to establish a systematic treatment strategy for cervical OPLL involving the C ₂ segment.
