Among gynecologic malignancies, ovarian cancer is the most lethal, primarily due to its insidious early symptoms, lack of effective screening methods, and high risk of recurrence. It poses substantial challenges to clinical diagnosis and treatment. In recent years, the clinical application of poly ADP-ribose polymerase inhibitors has promoted a comprehensive management model that integrates targeted therapy with conventional treatments. This review, aiming to provide new perspectives and approaches for future research, summarizes the high-risk factors and first-line treatment strategies for ovarian cancer. Further studies should focus on optimizing personalized treatment strategies and exploring novel targeted therapies to improve patient survival outcomes.

Bladder cancer （BCa） is the most common malignant tumor of the urinary system， and its incidence is increasing year by year. At present， for all patients with resectable non-metastatic muscle-invasive BCa， radical cystectomy + bilateral pelvic lymph node dissection is strongly recommended， but they still face the risk of recurrence， metastasis and death. In recent years， the proportion of patients with advanced and metastatic BCa is increasing among patients with newly diagnosed BCa. Although current treatment models are diverse， they often struggle to achieve significant efficacy due to their low effectiveness and adverse effects， resulting in low survival rates for patients with advanced and metastatic BCa. Therefore， the treatment of BCa still faces great challenges， and there is an urgent need to discover an effective new antitumor drug. With the improvement of medical standards， traditional Chinese medicine has shown great advantages in the treatment of BCa. Traditional Chinese medicine is mild and easy to accept， and can inhibit tumor progression through a multi-pathway， multi-way and multi-target manner， so as to exert its anticancer effect. Taraxaci Herba is a medicinal and food homologous plant， which has many biological activities， such as antibacterial， anti-inflammatory， anti-oxidation， anti-tumor， protecting liver and gallbladder， reducing blood sugar and enhancing immunity， and it has shown a clear anticancer effect in breast cancer， liver cancer， gastric cancer， tongue cancer and lung cancer. By reviewing previous studies worldwide， this article summarizes the mechanism of Taraxaci Herba extract in inducing autophagy and apoptosis， inhibiting cell migration and invasion， regulating cell cycle and proliferation， regulating cell metabolism， inhibiting tumor angiogenesis， combining the effects of chemotherapeutic drugs， and regulating the transduction of related signal pathways. On this basis， this study systematically elaborates on the potential mechanism of Taraxaci Herba against BCa， in order to provide a theoretical basis for the research and treatment of BCa.

Liver depression and spleen deficiency syndrome is a common syndrome type of ulcerative colitis (UC). Based on the theory of 'collaborative treatment of liver and spleen', TCM shows its effect and less adverse reactions in the treatment of UC with liver depression and spleen deficiency. The internal treatment of TCM based on syndrome differentiation and treatment by stages, as well as the external treatment of TCM based on TCM enema therapy, acupuncture therapy and acupoint application therapy, can relieve symptoms, improve relevant clinical indicators and improve the quality of life of patients. The mechanism studies show that the TCM with the effect of soothing the liver and activating the spleen plays a therapeutic role by regulating signal pathway conduction, regulating intestinal flora, and improving the level of inflammatory factors.

Objective To explore the correlation of MPV,NLR,PT,APTT and FIB with early pro-gression of ACI in patients with BAD.Methods A total of 303 ACI patients with BAD admitted in our department of neurology from October 2021 to September 2023 were consecutively recrui-ted,and according to their progression within 7 d of onset,they were divided into progression group(89 cases)and un-progression group(214 cases).The general clinical data,blood routine re-lated indicators(MPV,NLR)and coagulation related indicators(PT,APTT,FIB)were compared between the two groups.Multivariate logistic regression analysis was applied to identify the rela-tionship of above indicators with early progression of ACI in BAD patients.ROC curve was plot-ted to analyze the predictive value of the indictors for disease progression in these patients.Results The progression group had significantly advanced age,larger proportions of diabetes,hyperlipi-demia and stroke history,and increased levels of uric acid,LDL-C,homocysteine,MPV,platelet distribution width,NLR,D-dimer and FIB,and shorter TT,PT and APTT when compared with the un-progressed group(P＜0.05,P＜0.01).Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that MPV,NLR,PT,APTT,and FIB were all independent influencing factors for early disease pro-gression of ACI in patients with BAD(P＜0.05,P＜0.01).ROC curve indicated that the AUC value of combined MPV,NLR,PT,APTT and FIB in detecting early disease progression was 0.859(95％CI:0.813-0.905).Conclusion Blood routine(MPV,NLR)and coagulation related indicators(PT,APTT,FIB)are closely associated with the early disease progression of ACI in BAD patients,and these indicators are of high value in predicting the early disease progression.

Objective To investigate the clinical value of postoperative platelet-to-neutrophil ratio(PNR)in predicting the prognosis of patients with acute anterior circulation cardiogenic large-vessel occlusion stroke after receiving endovascular treatment.Methods A total of 95 patients with acute anterior circulation cardiogenic large-vessel occlusion stroke,who were admitted to the Affiliated Huai'an No.1 People's Hospital of Nanjing Medical University of China from January 2019 to January 2022,were enrolled in this study.Venous blood sampling was performed at admission and within 24 hours after thrombectomy,and the PNR,platelet-white blood cell ratio(PWR),platelet-lymphocyte ratio(PLR),and neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio(NLR)were calculated.According to the modified Rankin Scale score at 90 days(mRS-90),the patients were divided into good prognosis group(mRS-90 ≤2 points,n=45)and poor prognosis group(mRS-90 3-6 points,n=50).The clinical data were compared between the two groups.Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to analyze the predictors of 90-d good prognosis.The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve(AUC)was used to compare the efficacy of PWR,PNR,and NLR in predicting good prognosis.Results Compared with poor prognosis group,in good prognosis group the patients were younger,the NIHSS score at admission was smaller,the incidence of postoperative contrast extravasation was lower,the postoperative 24-hour PWR and PNR values were higher,and the postoperative 24-hour NLR value was lower,the differences in the above indexes between the two groups were statistically significant(all P＜0.05).Multivariate analysis showed that bridging therapy(OR=4.746,P=0.021,95％CI:1.262-17.856),postoperative contrast medium extravasation(OR=0.254,P=0.022,95％CI:0.079-0.824)and postoperative 24-h PNR(OR=1.087,P=0.006,95％CI:1.025-1.153)were the independent predictors for 90-d good prognosis in patients with acute anterior circulation cardiogenic large-vessel occlusion stroke after receiving endovascular treatment.AUCs of postoperative 24-h PWR,PNR and NLR for predicting a good prognosis after thrombectomy were 0.734,0.736 and 0.704 respectively.PNR had the highest predictive efficacy,with a cutoff value of 25.08,a specificity of 84.00％,and a sensitivity of 67.78％.Conclusion In patients with acute anterior circulation cardiogenic large-vessel occlusion stroke after receiving endovascular treatment,a better clinical prognosis can be expected when the patient has a higher postoperative 24-h PNR value.

Objective: To examine the association of long working hours and shift work with occupational stress among medical staff in level A tertiary hospitals, so as to provide insights into promotion of physical and mental health among medical personnel. Methods: One level A tertiary hospital was sampled using a stratified cluster sampling method from southern and northern Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region, and all medical personnel were recruited from these two hospitals. Participants' demographics, working duration, and working in shifts were collected using questionnaires, and occupational stress was measured using the Core Scale for Measurement of Occupational Stress proposed by National Institute for Occupational Health and Poison Control, Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention. The associations of long working hours (weekly working duration of >40 hours) and shift work with occupational stress were examined using a multiple linear regression model. Results: A total of 2 529 questionnaires were allocated, and 2 262 were valid, with an effective rate of 89.44%. The respondents had a mean age of (35.12±8.71) years, and included 1 696 women (74.98%). Of all respondents, there were 722 doctors (31.92%), 1 033 nurses (45.67%), 361 medical or pharmaceutical technicians (15.96%), 1 808 with long working hours (79.93%) and 1 264 with shift work (55.88%). The score of occupational stress was (44.79±8.49) points, and the prevalence of occupational stress was 28.69% among respondents. Multiple linear regression analysis showed that after adjustment for age, marital status, length of service, position, smoking and physical exercise, long working hours (>40 h, β'=0.124; >48 h, β'=0.175; ≥55 h, β'=0.323) and shift work (β'=0.203) were influencing factors for occupational stress among medical personnel（P<0.05）; however, there was no interaction between long working hours and shift work (P>0.05). Conclusion Long working hours and shift work may increase the risk of occupational stress among medical personnel in level A tertiary hospitals.

Objective:To investigate the effect of intravenous thrombolysis with recombinant tissue plasminogen activator (rt-PA) on sizes and components of thrombi in patients with acute ischemic stroke (AIS) after mechanical thrombectomy (MT).Methods:Ninety-eight AIS patients accepted MT in Department of Neurology, Huaian First Hospital Affiliated to Nanjing Medical University from June 2018 to June 2022 were enrolled; they were divided into bridging therapy group and direct thrombectomy group according to the treatments. Baseline data, prognoses and thrombus features between the 2 groups were compared.Results:No significant differences were observed between the 2 groups in terms of age, gender, previous medical history, baseline scores, sites and types of vascular occlusion, TOAST causative classifications, time frame, MT frequencies and techniques, successful recanalization, or prognoses 90 d after MT ( P>0.05). Compared with the direct thrombectomy group, the bridging therapy group had significantly reduced thrombus area (37[22, 78] mm 2vs. 27[14, 62] mm 2) and areas of major pathological components [red blood cells: 16.1([9.0, 37.4] mm 2vs. 11.8[6.1, 22.1] mm 2, fibrin/platelets: 19.5[9.5, 26.4] mm 2vs. 10.7[5.0, 22.8] mm 2, white blood cells: 4.0[2.2, 8.0] mm 2vs. 2.4[1.4, 5.7] mm 2, P<0.05); however, no significant differences in proportions of areas of major pathological components were noted between the 2 groups of patients ( P>0.05). Conclusion:The rt-PA intravenous thrombolysis can significantly reduce the thrombi volume and decrease the contents of major thrombus components in AIS patients after MT, but not change the proportions of major pathological components in thrombi.

Objective:Utilizing multi-criterion optimization (MCO) technology to improve plan design quality based on knowledge-based planning (KBP) model.Methods:Fifty-five patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) who had completed radiotherapy were selected, and fixed-field intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) technology was used in each case. Among them, 40 cases were randomly selected as training set 1. Then, IMRT plans in training set 1 were preprocessed by MCO technology to construct a new training set 2. With the initial training set 1 and the processed training set 2 as training samples, the traditional KBP model and the MCO-KBP model refined by MCO technology were trained, respectively. Among the remaining 15 cases, 5 cases were randomly selected as the validation set, and the remaining 10 cases were used as the test set. After verification, the test set was used to statistically analyze the plan quality of the initial manual plan and the automatic plan generated by the traditional KBP model and the MCO-KBP model.Results:The target dose (D 95%) of plans generated by the traditional KBP model and the MCO-KBP model met the clinical requirements. Conformity index (CI) and homogeneity index (HI) were almost the same ( P>0.05), and the doses of organ at risk (OAR) of the automatic plans generated by the MCO-KBP model were lower than those of the traditional KBP model. For example, compared with the traditional KBP model, the average D max of the brainstem in the automatic plans generated by the MCO-KBP model was lower by 2.13 Gy, the average D mean of the left parotid gland was lower by 1.39 Gy, the average D mean of the right parotid gland was lower by 1.59 Gy, and the average D max of the left optic nerve was lower by 1.42 Gy, the average D max of the right optic nerve was lower by 1.16 Gy, and the average D max of the pituitary gland was lower by 1.88 Gy. All of the above-mentioned dosimetry indexes were statistically significant. Conclusion:Compared with the traditional KBP model, the IMRT plans designed by the refined MCO-KBP model have obvious advantages in the protection of OAR, which proves the feasibility of utilizing MCO technology to improve the plan design quality of the KBP model.

Objective:To evaluate the association between thrombus composition and mechanical recanalization,operation procedure and clinical outcome.Methods:One hundred and ninety-two consecutive stroke patients with large-vessel occlusion treated by mechanical thrombectomy using a stent retriever and (or) aspiration catheter in the Affiliated Huaian No.1 People′s Hospital of Nanjing Medical University between January 2018 and January 2020 were collected. The retrieved thrombi were quantitatively analyzed for red blood cells, white blood cells, platelets, and fibrin. The patients were divided into two groups, a erythrocyte-rich group and a fibrin-rich group based on the predominant composition in the clot. The clinical prognosis, CT value of thrombus, procedure time,number of recanalization maneuvers, and degree of vascular recanalization were compared between the two groups.Results:The retrieved clot from 138 patients with acute ischemic stroke from internal carotid artery occlusion ( n=56), middle cerebral artery occlusion ( n=62), intracranial segment of vertebral artery or basilar artery occlusion( n=20) were histologically analyzed. Erythrocyte-rich clots were present in 59 cases, while fibrin-rich clots were present in 79 cases. Cardioembolic thrombi had higher proportions of fibrin/platelets [77.2%(61/79)], less erythrocytes than noncardioembolic thrombi [45.8%(27/59), χ2=8.115, P=0.004]. Patients with erythrocyte-rich thrombi had a smaller number of recanalization maneuvers [2 (1, 2) vs 3 (2, 4), Z=-7.613, P<0.001], shorter procedure time [45 (30, 60) min vs 80 (60, 90) min, Z=-6.944, P<0.001], higher thrombus CT value [42 (32, 53) vs 36 (31, 41), Z=-2.003, P=0.045], good clinical prognosis (the ratio of modified Rankin Scale score ≤2, 62.7% (37/59) vs 39.2% (31/79), χ2=7.444, P=0.006). There was no significant difference in the location of vascular occlusion between the two groups. Conclusion:For patients whose thrombotic components are mainly red blood cells, the cause of stroke may be non cardiogenic cerebral embolism, the CT value of embolus is relatively high, the embolus is easy to remove, and the clinical prognosis is relatively good.
