Diagnosis and Treatment Strategies for Severe Tumors in the Elderly / 医药导报

Patients with severe tumors do not refer to the patients with end-stage tumors,but rather to the patients with a performance status(PS)score between 2 and 4 in certain stages due to various reasons,such as acute or chronic comorbidities,tumor itself,or treatment-related adverse events.To these patients,there is a high probability of achieving survival benefit and/or improvement in PS scores after synergistic management of available life-support technologies and anti-tumor therapies based on dynamic and precise testing.Elderly patients with tumors frequently present with one or more chronic illnesses and have poor toler-ance and compliance to treatment.Moreover,their treatment regimens often lack high-quality clinical evidence,making them more susceptible to developing severe tumors.The management of severe tumors in the elderly is based on three basic diagnosis and treatment technologies:dynamic and precise detection,powerful life support technologies,and skillful application of current anti-tumor treatments.In specific clinical practice,the following 7 flexible and individualized treatment strategies should be adopted for different tumor types:1.concurrent management of cancer and comorbidities,2.upgrading and downgrading of anti-tumor drugs based on PS score,3.dynamic accurate detection,4.skillful combinations for increasing efficacy and reducing toxicity,5.complete overview,paying equal attention to systemic therapy and local therapy,6.safety first in medication for the elderly,7.multi-discipli-nary participation,individualized and comprehensive treatment.This article introduced the concept of severe tumors in the elderly and the associated management strategies,to increase awareness and provide feasible guidance for clinical practice.

Discussion About Diagnosis and Treatment Regularity of Infectious Lung Disease Epidemic and New Explanation of Lianhua Qingwen Formula / 中国实验方剂学杂志

As a public health event that seriously threatens human health， viral respiratory infectious diseases fall within the scope of "new illness entering collaterals". Collateral disease theory is used to guide prevention and treatment of this type of diseases， thus to propose the concept of infectious lung disease epidemic and reveal its progress rule of "Qi collaterals-Qi pathway-blood collaterals". By analyzing main therapeutic methods including detoxication， precipitation draining and aromatization， this paper proposes active intervention and treatment strategy of "simultaneously treating Wei and Qi， relieving exterior-interior syndrome， using medicine with evidence， stopping the disease tendency， overall adjustment and multi-target therapy". Through systematic summarization of historical medication regularity in infectious lung disease epidemic， this paper demonstrates that "maintaining healthy Qi" and "avoiding harmful Qi" are the general rules of prevention and treatment. Based on literature review， data mining and meta analysis of clinical experiences， this study inherits and innovatively develops the formula of Chinese patent medicine Lianhua Qingwen. The formula is developed through a modification to basic formulae Yinqiaosan and Maxing Shigantang. It learns from Wu Youke's experience in treating epidemic diseases with Rhei Radix et Rhizoma， considers pathological characteristics of infectious lung disease epidemic， and innovatively adds Rhodiolae Crenulatae Radix et Rhizoma and Pogostemonis Herba. The new formula is featured by clearing heat， being warm-pungent， function of both detoxication and aromatization， as well as simultaneous implementation of strengthening the body resistance and purging Fu organs. It can clear heat but won't over cool the body， keep the body warm but won't contribute to pathogenic fire， strengthening the body resistance but won't retain pathogen， and eliminate pathogen but won't damage healthy Qi. Meanwhile， series of basic and clinical studies have demonstrated that Lianhua Qingwen formula has the unique advantages for respiratory infectious diseases， which reveals the scientific connotation of infectious lung disease prevention and control under the guidance of pulmonary collateral disease diagnosis and treatment theory.

The accuracy of tumor size measurement and clinical T staging for resected lung cancer: Retrospective analysis of 1 880 patients / 中国胸心血管外科临床杂志

@#Objective To elucidate the correlation between radiological tumor size (RTS) and pathological tumor size (PTS), and to evaluate the accuracy of clinical T staging. Methods Data on patients who underwent complete resection between September 2018 and June 2019 were retrospectively collected. The correlation between RTS and PTS was analyzed by and we assessed the agreement between clinical and pathologic T staging. Results Finally, 1 880 patients were included. There were 778 males and 1 102 females at average age of 57±11 years. In the entire cohort, the RTS and PTS was 19.1±13.5 mm and 17.7±14.0 mm, respectively (P<0.001). The RTS and PTS showed a strong linear correlation with the Pearson’s correlation coefficient calculated as 0.897. The mean RTS was significantly larger than PTS (P<0.001) in tumors≤3 cm, but significantly smaller in tumors>4 cm. The overall concordance rate between clinical and pathological T staging was 65.6%. Clinical staging failed to detect T4 disease in 29.4% (5/17) of patients. Male patients and the presence of cavities within nodules were independent significant factors leading to inaccurate clinical T staging. Conclusions The correlation between the tumor sizes measured on thin-section computed tomography and pathologic specimens varies with the real tumor size. Methods and techniques for improving clinical T staging accuracy is in urgent need.

Individualized surgical treatment strategy for children with anomalous aortic origin of coronary artery / 中国胸心血管外科临床杂志

@#Objective To summarize and explore the individualized surgical treatment strategy and prognosis of anomalous aortic origin of coronary artery (AAOCA). Methods The clinical data of children with AAOCA admitted to Shanghai Children's Medical Center from March 2018 to August 2021 were retrospectively analyzed. Results A total of 17 children were enrolled, including 13 males and 4 females, with a median age of 88 (44, 138) months and a median weight of 25 (18, 29) kg. All patients received operations. The methods of coronary artery management included coronary artery decapitation in 9 patients, coronary artery transplantation in 5 patients and coronary artery perforation in 3 patients. One patient with severe cardiac insufficiency (left ventricular ejection fraction 15%) received mechanical circulatory assistance after the operation for 12 days. No death occurred in the early postoperative period, the average ICU stay time was 4.3±3.0 d, and the total hospital stay was 14.4±6.1 d. All the children received regular anticoagulation therapy for 3 months after discharge. The median follow-up time was 15 (13, 24) months. All patients received regular anticoagulation therapy for 3 months after discharge. No clinical symptoms such as chest pain and syncope occurred again. The cardiac function grade was significantly improved compared with that before operation. Imaging examination showed that the coronary artery blood flow on the operation side was unobstructed, and no restenosis occurred. Conclusion AAOCA is easy to induce myocardial ischemia and even sudden cardiac death. Once diagnosed, operation should be carried out as soon as possible. According to the anatomic characteristics of coronary artery, the early effect of individualized surgery is satisfactory, and the symptoms of the children are significantly improved and the cardiac function recovers well in the mid-term follow-up.

Application of Single Cell RNA Sequencing in Glioblastoma Research / 华中科技大学学报(医学版)

Glioblastoma is the most common primary malignant tumor of brain in adults.Although great efforts have been made to improve prognosis in recent years,the median survival is still less than 20 months,and less than 5％of patients survive longer than 20 months.The standard treatment is maximum surgical excision combined with radiotherapy and temozolomide chemotherapy.Single cell RNA sequencing(scRNA-seq)technology accurately analyzes each unique cell,enabling us to better understand the heterogeneity of tumors,the evolution process of tumor cells,the special functions of various types of cells in the immune microenvironment,and the interactions between cells,thus providing new ideas for personalized clinical therapy.This review focuses on the application of scRNA-seq in the study of glioblastoma heterogeneity,tumor immune microenvironment,cell communication and treatment.

Stepwise treatment strategy for spontaneous osteonecrosis of the medial femoral condyle of the knee joint / 中国组织工程研究

BACKGROUND:Currently,there have been a variety of conservative and surgical treatment plans for spontaneous osteonecrosis of the knee,achieving excellent results.However,a broad consensus on indication and guide of surgical treatment has not been announced.In clinical practice,there is still a misunderstanding that unicondylar replacement or total knee arthroplasty should be performed upon the discovery of spontaneous osteonecrosis of the knee,while an urgent need for universal access to the concept of stepwise therapy. OBJECTIVE:To summarize and find the factors leading to the poor effect of conservative treatment in spontaneous osteonecrosis of the knee,which occurred on the medial femoral condyle,from the literature and clinical cases,at the same time,combined with the Koshino stage,to propose the strategy of stepwise spontaneous osteonecrosis of the knee treatment on the medial femoral condyle. METHODS:A systematic search of the literature database was conducted to summarize the factors leading to poor outcomes of conservative treatment in spontaneous osteonecrosis of the medial femoral condyle.Meanwhile,according to the Clinical&Health Records for analytics&Sharing system,the cases receiving conservative and surgical treatment in spontaneous osteonecrosis of the medial femoral condyle in the Department of Orthopedics of Guangdong Provincial Hospital of Chinese Medicine from January 2017 to January 2023 were analyzed retrospectively,then the causes of success and failure in typical cases were summarized and analyzed. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)Early diagnosis and treatment of spontaneous osteonecrosis of the knee were very important for prognosis.For sudden knee pain in some patients,if no obvious abnormality was found in the X-ray examination,and the symptoms persisted and could not be relieved for more than 1 week,an MRI examination was recommended to detect early spontaneous osteonecrosis of the knee.(2)The X-ray images of Koshino stage 1 and stage 2 of spontaneous osteonecrosis of the medial femoral condyle were difficult to be distinguished,which needed to be probed by MRI.MRI images of Koshino stage 1 were mainly characterized by bone marrow edema,and an osteonecrosis area with a clear boundary was not formed,while MR images of Koshino stage 2 showed a necrotic area with a clear boundary.(3)Five factors leading to the poor effect of conservative treatment on spontaneous osteonecrosis of the medial femoral condyle were summarized:a.The necrotic area was＞5 cm2;b.The necrotic area accounted for more than 40%of the condyle;c.relative compression percentage of medial meniscus≥33%(with or without medial meniscus injury and subchondral bone marrow edema);d.MRI depth of necrotic area(anterior-posterior diameter of sagittal necrotic area)＞20 mm;e.varus deformity of lower limb＞6°.(4)Conservative treatment of spontaneous osteonecrosis of the knee in Koshino stage 1 was good.For spontaneous osteonecrosis of the knee in Koshino stage 2,conservative treatment was preferred or combined with drilling decompression.If there was no relief or improvement of symptoms or in MRI after 3 months,while the patient had any of the previous five factors,then knee preservation surgery should be considered.For spontaneous osteonecrosis of the knee in Koshino stage 3 and stage 4,knee preservation surgery should be selected based on the previous five factors,including age,gender and activity level of the patient.Total knee arthroplasty was used for spontaneous osteonecrosis in Koshino stage 4,which was associated with symptomatic patellofemoral arthritis,valgus alignment,or necrotic area,which greatly affected the stability of unicondyle prosthesis.

Status of research on diagnostic and treatment strategies for enamel hypoplasia / 口腔疾病防治

@#Enamel hypoplasia is a disease that results in enamel formation and mineralization abnormalities due to the effects of hereditary or environmental variables during tooth development. Affected teeth may appear to have an aberrant color and structural flaws. Patients often display clinical signs such as tooth defects, tooth sensitivity, and tooth discoloration. The disease can cause patients to feel physically and mentally uncomfortable and negatively impact their ability to chew, swallow, speak, and smile. In this review, the pathophysiology of enamel hypoplasia, which is caused by anomalies in gene regulation and changes in environmental variables, is summarized, along with a list of clinical diagnostic indicators based on the most commonly used disease classifications. The main points are as follows: ① enamel hypoplasia changes only the color and transparency of the affected teeth; ② lesions often occur symmetrically in groups; ③ the age at which systemic diseases or nutritional disorders occur during tooth development can be predicted based on the patient's impaired teeth; and ④ banded or pitted brown depression on the enamel surface can easily be confused with dental fluorosis. It also elaborates on the comprehensive application of tooth bleaching, desensitization, direct or indirect restoration and other treatment modalities according to unique chief complaints by different patients and suggests the use of multidisciplinary cooperative sequential treatment for critical infants and young children. The goal of this review is to provide professionals with the most recent information and advice about enamel hypoplasis. Current literature on this condition is primarily case reports. To further standardize the diagnostic and management approaches for this disease, additional high-quality clinical research and systematic reviews are required.

Effect of traditional Chinese medicine in attenuating chronic kidney disease and its complications by regulating gut microbiota-derived metabolite trimethylamine N-oxide: a review / 中国中药杂志

Trimethylamine N-oxide(TMAO), a metabolite of gut microbiota, is closely associated with chronic kidney disease(CKD). It can aggravate the kidney injury and promote the occurrence of complications of CKD mainly by inducing renal fibroblast activation, vascular endothelial inflammation, macrophage foaming, platelet hyperreactivity, and inhibition of reverse cholesterol transport. Thus it is of great significance for clinical treatment of CKD to regulate circulating TMAO and alleviate its induced body damage. Currently, therapeutic strategies for TMAO regulation include dietary structure adjustment, lifestyle intervention, intestinal microflora regulation, and inhibition of intestinal trimethylamine synthesis and liver trimethylamine oxidation. Chinese medicinal herbs have the clinical advantage of multi-component and multi-target effects, and application of traditional Chinese medicine(TCM) to synergistically regulating TMAO and improving CKD via multiple pathways has broad prospects. This study systematically reviewed the clinical relevance and mechanism of TMAO in aggravating CKD renal function deterioration and complication progression. In addition, the effect and mechanism of TCM in improving TMAO-induced kidney injury, cardiovascular disease, hyperlipidemia, thrombosis and osteoporosis were summarized. The results provided a theoretical basis for TCM in attenuating gut microbiota-derived metabolite TMAO and improving CKD, as well as a basis and direction for in-depth clinical development and mechanism research in the future.

Treatment of advanced non-small cell lung cancer with driver mutations: current applications and future directions / 医学前沿

With the improved understanding of driver mutations in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), expanding the targeted therapeutic options improved the survival and safety. However, responses to these agents are commonly temporary and incomplete. Moreover, even patients with the same oncogenic driver gene can respond diversely to the same agent. Furthermore, the therapeutic role of immune-checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) in oncogene-driven NSCLC remains unclear. Therefore, this review aimed to classify the management of NSCLC with driver mutations based on the gene subtype, concomitant mutation, and dynamic alternation. Then, we provide an overview of the resistant mechanism of target therapy occurring in targeted alternations ("target-dependent resistance") and in the parallel and downstream pathways ("target-independent resistance"). Thirdly, we discuss the effectiveness of ICIs for NSCLC with driver mutations and the combined therapeutic approaches that might reverse the immunosuppressive tumor immune microenvironment. Finally, we listed the emerging treatment strategies for the new oncogenic alternations, and proposed the perspective of NSCLC with driver mutations. This review will guide clinicians to design tailored treatments for NSCLC with driver mutations.

Rare tumors: a blue ocean of investigation / 医学前沿

Advances in novel drugs, therapies, and genetic techniques have revolutionized the diagnosis and treatment of cancers, substantially improving cancer patients' prognosis. Although rare tumors account for a non-negligible number, the practice of precision medicine and development of novel therapies are largely hampered by many obstacles. Their low incidence and drastic regional disparities result in the difficulty of informative evidence-based diagnosis and subtyping. Sample exhaustion due to difficulty in diagnosis also leads to a lack of recommended therapeutic strategies in clinical guidelines, insufficient biomarkers for prognosis/efficacy, and inability to identify potential novel therapies in clinical trials. Herein, by reviewing the epidemiological data of Chinese solid tumors and publications defining rare tumors in other areas, we proposed a definition of rare tumor in China, including 515 tumor types with incidences of less than 2.5/100 000 per year. We also summarized the current diagnosis process, treatment recommendations, and global developmental progress of targeted drugs and immunotherapy agents on the status quo. Lastly, we pinpointed the current recommendation chance for patients with rare tumors to be involved in a clinical trial by NCCN. With this informative report, we aimed to raise awareness on the importance of rare tumor investigations and guarantee a bright future for rare tumor patients.

Recent advances in diverse nanosystems for nitric oxide delivery in cancer therapy

Gas therapy has been proven to be a promising and advantageous treatment option for cancers. Studies have shown that nitric oxide (NO) is one of the smallest structurally significant gas molecules with great potential to suppress cancer. However, there is controversy and concern about its use as it exhibits the opposite physiological effects based on its levels in the tumor. Therefore, the anti-cancer mechanism of NO is the key to cancer treatment, and rationally designed NO delivery systems are crucial to the success of NO biomedical applications. This review summarizes the endogenous production of NO, its physiological mechanisms of action, the application of NO in cancer treatment, and nano-delivery systems for delivering NO donors. Moreover, it briefly reviews challenges in delivering NO from different nanoparticles and the issues associated with its combination treatment strategies. The advantages and challenges of various NO delivery platforms are recapitulated for possible transformation into clinical applications.

The VAS score decreased from (5.47±1.81) to (1.87±1.51) (P<0.05), and the self-rating anxiety scale score decreased from (18.13±8.64) to (6.33±8.22) (P<0.05). The score of health-related quality of life increased from (24.47±5.41) to (31.53±6.49) (P<0.05). 【Conclusion】 The comprehensive strategy is effective in the treatment of bladder pain syndrome, which can relieve pain symptoms and improve patients’ quality of life.

Treatment Strategies and Prognostic Factors in Patients with Stage T3 and T4 Laryngeal Carcinoma / 肿瘤防治研究

Objective To investigate the selection of treatment strategies and prognostic factors for patients with stage T3 and T4 laryngeal carcinoma. Methods A total of 132 patients with stage T3 and T4 laryngeal cancer admitted to our hospital from March 2010 to March 2019 were retrospectively selected as research objects. According to the different treatment strategies, the patients were divided into simple surgery group (group A, 57 cases), simple chemoradiotherapy group (group B, 32 cases), and surgery combined with chemoradiotherapy group (group C, 43 cases). The general data and clinicopathological features of the three groups were compared, and a survival curve was drawn by the Kaplan–Meier method. The 3-year survival rates of the three groups were compared. Then, the same 132 patients were divided into survival and death groups. The clinical data of the two groups were compared, and the prognostic factors were analyzed by multivariate logistic regression. A back propagation (BP) neural network model was constructed, and its differentiation and accuracy were evaluated. Results The proportions and 3 year survival rates of patients with poor differentiation, lymphatic vascular invasion, and involvement of lymph nodes outside the capsule in group C were significantly higher than those in groups A and B (P < 0.05). The 3 year survival rate of 132 patients was 68.94%(41/132). Poor differentiation, N2-N3 stage, lymphatic vascular invasion, and involvement of lymph nodes outside the capsule were risk factors for death (P < 0.05), whereas surgery combined with radiotherapy and chemotherapy were protective factors (P < 0.05). The BP neural network model exhibited good discrimination and high accuracy. Conclusion Surgery combined with radiotherapy and chemotherapy can significantly improve survival rate in patients with poor differentiation, lymphatic vascular invasion, and involvement of lymph nodes outside the capsule. Close attention should be paid to patients with stage N2-N3 in the formulation of reasonable treatment strategies.

Research progress of no-reflow phenomenon after revascularization in acute ischemic stroke / 临床神经病学杂志

Intravenous thrombolysis and revascularization in the time window are effective in promoting blood flow recanalization,reducing core infarction area and improving clinical prognosis in acute ischemic stroke(AIS).However,successful vascular recanalization does not mean the complete recovery of cerebral microcirculation perfusion,and the microstructure damage during ischemia may lead to microcirculation"no-reflow phenomenon(NRP)".In recent years,studies have found that about 40%of patients with AIS can have NRP after vascular recanalization,which is one of the important reasons for futile recanalization after vascular therapy in AIS.Therefore,early identification and treatment of NRP after recanalization treatment of AIS is of great significance to improve the prognosis.This article reviews the related definition,pathophysiological mechanism,imaging features and treatment strategies of NRP after vascular recanalization in AIS,in order to provide a reference for clinical diagnosis and treatment after vascular recanalization in AIS.

Advances in the regulation of autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease by Hippo signaling pathway / 中华肾脏病杂志

The Hippo signaling pathway is highly conserved in evolution, and participates in the regulation of cell proliferation, differentiation, and tissular dynamic balance, and plays an important role in regulating tissue, organ size, and cell number. Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) is the most common hereditary kidney disease and one of the most common causes of end-stage renal disease. Emerging studies have identified the Hippo signaling pathway is closely related to the occurrence and development of ADPKD. The abnormal activity and expression of the main members of the pathway affect the cilia and cell polarity of renal tubular epithelial cells and induce the formation of renal cysts. The review summarizes the potential mechanism of the Hippo pathway in the pathogenesis of ADPKD, the crosstalk with other signaling pathways, and the variances in different species, and discusses the strategies for the treatment of ADPKD based on the Hippo signaling pathway to provide new strategies for the treatment.
