		                        			Cell membrane-modified nanoparticles (NPs) have attracted widespread attention as a new approach for malignant brain tumors in recent years. This method can enhance the targeting, biocompatibility, and circulation time of NPs by preserving the characteristics of source cell membrane, thereby ensuring efficient drug delivery to intracranial lesions. This paper focuses on the research progress in this field, especially advantages of NPs penetrating the blood-brain barrier, immune evasion and drug delivery, as well as modified effect of different cell membrane on NPs, in order to provide help for treatment of malignant brain tumors.

		                        			Ferroptosis is a novel form of cell death discovered in recent years, characterized by iron-dependent cell death featuring the peroxidation of polyunsaturated fatty acid phospholipids. Recent studies have found that radiotherapy can induce ferroptosis in tumor cells through ionizing radiation, and the combination of radiotherapy with small molecule or nano-scale ferroptosis inducers can inhibit tumor growth and enhance radiosensitization. This review summarizes the mechanisms of ferroptosis and the pathways through which radiotherapy induces ferroptosis, and also explores the potential application prospects of small molecule drugs and nanomaterials in mediating ferroptosis for the radiosensitization of tumor treatment.

		                        			Objective:To systematically evaluate the efficacy and safety of precision thoracic radiotherapy (TRT) in the limited-stage small cell lung cancer (LS-SCLC) patients by network meta-analysis.Methods:Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) of TRT regimes in the LS-SCLC were electronically searched from PubMed, Web of Science, The Cochrane Library, CNKI and Wanfang Data from inception to September 1 st, 2021. Two reviewers independently screened literature, extracted data and assessed the risk of bias of included studies. Statistical analysis was performed by Stata 17 and R 4.1.1 software. Results:A total of 6 RCTs involving 1730 patients with six radiation regimens including hyperfractionated radiotherapy (HFRT): HFRT 45(45 Gy/30 F) and HFRT 60(60 Gy/40 F); conventional fractionated radiotherapy (CFRT): CFRT 70(70 Gy/35 F) and CFRT 66(66 Gy/33 F); moderately hypofractionated radiotherapy (MHFRT): MHFRT 65(65 Gy/26 F) and MHFRT 42(42 Gy/15 F) were included. The network meta-analysis showed that: in terms of improving progression-free survival and overall survival, there was no statistically significant difference among the six radiotherapy regimens. The probabilistic ranking results were: MHFRT 65> HFRT 60>CFRT 66>CFRT 70>MHFRT 42>HFRT 45, and HFRT 60>MHFRT 65>CFRT 66>CFRT 70>HFRT 45>MHFRT 42, respectively. The HFRT 60 regimen was superior to other regimens in reducing the incidence of grade ≥3 pneumonia, and there was no difference between the regimens in causing grade ≥3 radiation esophagitis, and the results of ranking probability were: HFRT 60> MHFRT 42>CFRT 66>CFRT 70>HFRT 45>MHFRT 65, and HFRT 60>CFRT 70>CFRT 66>HFRT 45>MHFRT 42>MHFRT 65, respectively. Conclusions:HFRT 60 radiotherapy regimen may be more effective and safer in the treatment of LS-SCLC patients as a priority choice for LS-SCLC TRT. Limited by the number and quality of included studies, the above conclusions need to be verified by more high-quality studies.

		                        			With the accelerating globalization and the implementation of "Belt and Road" initiative proposed by our government, communication and exchanges between China and foreign countries have become more and more frequent than before, and much more international students have chosen to study in China's universities as candidates of master of public health (MPH). However, because China only launched the MPH program in recent years, with the training models being highly similar to the program of master of science in China but quite different from those of main international MPH programs, hindering China's MPH program to become an international one. This paper systematically evaluated existing training models of MPH programs both at home and abroad through literature review and identified major differences and deficiencies of China's MPH program compared to those from other countries: (1) requirement for medical background only; (2) comparatively longer period to complete the program; (3) incomplete curriculum; (4) overemphasizing scientific research competencies but somewhat neglecting practical abilities; and (5) limited career choices, and put forward some suggestions to improve the MPH program of China, including removing requirement for medical background only, shortening the period of MPH program, improving the curriculum of MPH program, and enhancing the training of practical abilities.
