Despite the success of various cancer therapies on patient survival, these treatments can have negative side effects, particularly severe damage to the respiratory system. Given the rise in respiratory-associated illnesses in response to cancer treatment, we urge the field to consider a new discipline referred to as \'oncology-respirology\' (or onco-respirology).

Burns are an underestimated serious injury negatively impacting survivors physically, psychologically and economically, and thus are a considerable public health burden. Despite significant advancements in burn treatment, many burns still do not heal or develop serious complications/sequelae. The nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain-like receptors (NLRs) family pyrin domain-containing 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome is a critical regulator of wound healing, including burn wound healing. A better understanding of the pathophysiological mechanism underlying the healing of burn wounds may help find optimal therapeutic targets to promote the healing of burn wounds, reduce complications/sequelae following burn, and maximize the restoration of structure and function of burn skin. This review aimed to summarize current understanding of the roles and regulatory mechanisms of the NLRP3 inflammasome in burn wound healing, as well as the preclinical studies of the involvement of NLRP3 inhibitors in burn treatment, highlighting the potential application of NLRP3-targeted therapy in burn wounds.

UNASSIGNED: COVID-19 sequelae are long-term symptoms of COVID-19. Cardiovascular disease is not only a risk factor for the occurrence of COVID-19 sequelae but also a potential result directly or indirectly caused by COVID-19 infection.
UNASSIGNED: The aim of this study is to investigate the cardiovascular system-related symptoms of outpatients and inpatients of the Cardiovascular Department of the Affiliated Hospital of Shandong University of Traditional Chinese Medicine after recovery from novel coronavirus infection, analyze the influencing factors, and symptom characteristics of related symptoms, and thereby provide a basis for further formulating a reasonable diagnosis and treatment plan.
UNASSIGNED: From January 15, 2023 to February 15, 2023, 452 recovered patients with novel coronavirus infection who were admitted to the Cardiovascular Department of the Affiliated Hospital of Shandong University of Traditional Chinese Medicine due to symptoms of the cardiovascular system (complaints of chest pain and palpitations) were involved in this study. A unified questionnaire was used to record the general information, past medical history, characteristics of chest pain or palpitations, and other COVID-19-related sequelae of the selected patients. All data were statistically analyzed by SPSS 26.0 statistical software.
UNASSIGNED: A total of 226 patients with cardiovascular symptoms and 226 patients without cardiovascular symptoms were included in this study. After univariate and multivariate logistic regression analysis, women (OR 2.081, 95% CI = 1.358-3.189) and young people (OR 2.557, 95% CI = 1.44-4.54) had a higher risk of cardiovascular symptoms; prehypertension (OR 1.905, 95% CI = 1.091-3.329) and hypertension (OR 2.287, 95% CI = 1.433-3.649) increased the risk of cardiovascular symptoms; patients with history of previous cardiovascular disease (OR 1.862, 95% CI = 1.16-2.988) and history of diabetes (OR 2.138, 95% CI = 1.058-4.319) had a higher risk of developing cardiovascular symptoms. The main symptoms related to COVID-19 sequelae reported by all 452 patients were fatigue (76.8%), shortness of breath (54.2%), dry mouth and bitter mouth (46.0%), gastrointestinal symptoms (42.7%), sleep disturbances (37.4%), sweating (31.9%), chills (29%), dizziness (25.7%), confusion of brain fog (25.2%), and tinnitus (14.6%). Compared with patients without cardiovascular symptoms, patients with cardiovascular symptoms were more likely to have shortness of breath (OR 3.521, 95% CI = 2.226-5.472), gastrointestinal symptoms (OR 2.039, 95% CI = 1.226-3.393), and dry mouth and bitter mouth (OR 1.918, 95% CI = 1.229-2.992). The differences were statistically significant (P < 0.05).
UNASSIGNED: In this new coronavirus infection, women, young people, the elderly, people with prehypertension, hypertension, and patients with a history of cardiovascular disease and diabetes have a higher risk of developing cardiovascular symptoms, and patients with cardiovascular symptoms are more likely to develop other COVID-19 sequelae.

UNASSIGNED: The acute stage of COVID-19 often presents with neurological manifestations.
UNASSIGNED: This study aims to investigate the long-term neurological effects on survivors.
UNASSIGNED: This study recruited 1,546 COVID-19 survivors from Wuhan, including 1,119 nonsevere cases and 427 severe survivors. Participants were interviewed two years after discharge to report their neurological symptoms. The neurological symptoms of COVID-19 were compared between survivors of severe and nonsevere COVID-19.
UNASSIGNED: Among the 1,546 COVID-19 survivors, 44.24% discovered at least one neurological symptom. The most prevalent self-reported symptom was fatigue (28.33%), memory deficit (13.26%), attention deficit (9.96%), myalgia (8.34%), dizziness (3.82%), and headache (2.52%). Severe cases had higher incidences of fatigue, myalgia, memory deficit, attention deficit than nonsevere cases. Older age, severe COVID-19, and comorbidity burden were associated with long-term neurological symptoms.
UNASSIGNED: Neurological symptoms are common among COVID-19 survivors, especially in severe cases.

UNASSIGNED: Clinical characteristics and outcome in COVID-19 with brucellosis patients has not been well demonstrated, we tried to analyze clinical outcome in local and literature COVID-19 cases with brucellosis before and after recovery.
UNASSIGNED: We retrospectively collected hospitalization data of comorbid patients and prospectively followed up after discharge in Heilongjiang Infectious Disease Hospital from January 15, 2020 to April 29, 2022. Demographics, epidemiological, clinical symptoms, radiological and laboratory data, treatment medicines and outcomes, and follow up were analyzed, and findings of a systematic review were demonstrated.
UNASSIGNED: A total of four COVID-19 with brucellosis patients were included. One patient had active brucellosis before covid and 3 patients had nonactive brucellosis before brucellosis. The median age was 54.5 years, and all were males (100.0%). Two cases (50.0%) were moderate, and one was mild and asymptomatic, respectively. Three cases (75.0%) had at least one comorbidity (brucellosis excluded). All 4 patients were found in COVID-19 nucleic acid screening. Case C and D had only headache and fever on admission, respectively. Four cases were treated with Traditional Chinese medicine, western medicines for three cases, no adverse reaction occurred during hospitalization. All patients were cured and discharged. Moreover, one case (25.0%) had still active brucellosis without re-positive COVID-19, and other three cases (75.0%) have no symptoms of discomfort except one case fell fatigue and anxious during the follow-up period after recovery. Conducting the literature review, two similar cases have been reported in two case reports, and were both recovered, whereas, no data of follow up after recovery.
UNASSIGNED: These cases indicate that COVID-19 patients with brucellosis had favorable outcome before and after recovery. More clinical studies should be conducted to confirm our findings.

With the global epidemic and prevention of the COVID-19, long COVID-19 sequelae and its comprehensive prevention have attracted widespread attention. Long COVID-19 sequelae refer to that three months after acute COVID-19, the test of SARS-CoV-2 is negative, but some symptoms still exist, such as cough, prolonged dyspnea and fatigue, shortness of breath, palpitations and insomnia. Its pathological mechanism is related to direct viral damage, immunopathological response, endocrine and metabolism disorders. Although there are more effective methods for treating COVID-19, the treatment options available for patients with long COVID-19 remain quite limited. Psychophysical therapies, such as exercise, oxygen therapy, photobiomodulation, and meditation, have been attempted as treatment modalities for long COVID-19, which have the potential to promote recovery through immune regulation, antioxidant effects, and neuroendocrine regulation. Neuroendocrine regulation plays a significant role in repairing damage after viral infection, regulating immune homeostasis, and improving metabolic activity in patients with long COVID-19. This review uses oxytocin as an example to examine the neuroendocrine mechanisms involved in the psychophysical therapies of long COVID-19 syndrome and proposes a psychophysical strategy for the treatment of long COVID-19.

OBJECTIVE: The aim of this retrospective study was to examine the clinical outcomes and complications of proximal femur reconstruction (PFR) combined with total hip arthroplasty (THA) in patients with high hip dislocation secondary to septic arthritis (SA).
METHODS: Between September 2016 to September 2021, we performed a series of 15 consecutive PFR combined with THA on patients with high dislocation of the hip secondary to SA, of these,12 hips were reviewed retrospectively, with a mean follow-up of 2.5 years (range, 1.5-6 years). The mean age of the patients at the time of surgery was 52 years (range, 40-70 years).
RESULTS: All patients were followed up. At 1-year postoperative follow-up, the median HHS increased from 32.50 preoperatively to 79.50 postoperatively. The median VAS decreased from 7 before surgery to 2 at 1 year after surgery. The median LLD reduced from 45 mm preoperatively to 8 mm at 1 year after surgery. The mean operative time 125 ± 15 min (range 103-195 min). Mean estimated blood loss was500 ± 105ml (range 450-870 ml). Mean hospital days 9.5 days (range 6-15 days). Two patients developed nerve injuries that improved after nutritional nerve treatment. One patient had recurrent postoperative dislocation and underwent reoperation, with no recurrence dislocation during the follow-up. There were no cases of prosthesis loosening during the follow-up period. One patient developed acute postoperative periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) that was treated with Debridement, Antibiotics and Implant Retention (DAIR) plus anti-infective therapy, with no recurrence during 2 years of follow-up.
CONCLUSIONS: This study indicates PFR combined with THA shows promise as a technique to manage high hip dislocation secondary to SA, improving early outcomes related to pain, function, and limb length discrepancy.

The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has continued for more than 3 years, placing a huge burden on society worldwide. Although the World Health Organization (WHO) has declared an end to COVID-19 as a Public Health Emergency of International Concern (PHEIC), it is still considered a global threat. Previously, there has been a long debate as to whether the COVID-19 emergency will eventually end or transform into a more common infectious disease from a PHEIC, and how should countries respond to similar pandemics in the future more time-efficiently and cost-effectively. We reviewed the past, middle and current situation of COVID-19 based on bibliometric analysis and epidemiological data. Thereby, the necessity is indicated to change the paradigm from reactive healthcare services to predictive, preventive and personalised medicine (PPPM) approach, in order to effectively protect populations against COVID-19 and any future pandemics. Corresponding measures are detailed in the article including the involvement of multi-professional expertise, application of artificial intelligence, rapid diagnostics and patient stratification, and effective protection, amongst other to be considered by advanced health policy.
