Neoadjuvant Short-Course Radiotherapy Followed by Tislelizumab Plus Chemotherapy for Locally Advanced Resectable Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma This is a prospective, randomized, two-arm, parallel-group, multicenter, exploratory Phase II clinical trial. It aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of neoadjuvant short-course radiotherapy followed by tislelizumab combined with chemotherapy in participants with locally advanced resectable esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC). Eligible participants will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to receive either low-dose or high-dose short-course radiotherapy, followed by tislelizumab, nab-paclitaxel, and carboplatin for 3 cycles. Surgery will be performed 4-6 weeks after the last neoadjuvant treatment. Primary endpoint: Pathological Complete Response (pCR) rate. Secondary endpoints: Major Pathological Response (MPR) rate, Objective Response Rate (ORR), R0 resection rate, downstaging rate, 3-year Event-Free Survival (EFS), 3-year Overall Survival (OS), safety profile, and quality of life. Approximately 50 participants will be enrolled. Randomization will be stratified by tumor location, clinical T stage, and clinical N stage using a stratified block design via an EDC/IWRS system.

This study aims to understand how the gut and the brain communicate in people with Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) who also experience anxiety and depression. We want to see if changes in gut bacteria are linked to changes in brain function, and to find potential markers that could help in diagnosis or future treatments. We are looking for two groups of volunteers aged 18 to 60 years: 1) 100 patients diagnosed with IBS who also have symptoms of anxiety or depression, and 2) 100 healthy volunteers for comparison. All participants must be right-handed. Participants in this observational study will not receive any new drug or treatment. Instead, they will be asked to: Complete questionnaires about their bowel symptoms, anxiety, depression, sleep, and thinking skills. Provide a stool sample (about 5 grams) and a blood sample (about 5 ml). Undergo a brain scan using a 7 Tesla MRI machine, which will take about 45-50 minutes. They will need to lie still during the scan. Some IBS patients may be invited for a follow-up visit after 3 months to repeat the questionnaires and sample collection. There are minimal risks involved. The MRI scan is non-radioactive and considered very safe, but some people may feel uncomfortable or claustrophobic inside the machine. Giving blood may cause brief pain, bruising, or, very rarely, infection. Your privacy is protected. All personal information and data will be coded and kept confidential, and will only be used for this research. The main benefit to participants is receiving a detailed health assessment, including advanced brain imaging and analysis of gut bacteria, at no cost. There is no direct therapeutic benefit from participating, but the knowledge gained may help improve the understanding and future care of IBS.

This is a phase II, single-arm, prospective exploratory study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of neoadjuvant dalpiciclib (a CDK4/6 inhibitor) plus an aromatase inhibitor (AI) followed by SHR-A1811 (an anti-HER2 antibody-drug conjugate) in patients with intermediate-to-high risk, hormone receptor-positive (HR+), HER2-low breast cancer. Patients will receive dalpiciclib (125 mg orally once daily, days 1-21, every 4 weeks) plus AI (anastrozole 1 mg, letrozole 2.5 mg, or exemestane 25 mg once daily) for 4 cycles, followed by SHR-A1811 (4.8 mg/kg intravenously every 3 weeks) for 4 cycles. The primary endpoint is objective response rate (ORR) per RECIST 1.1. Secondary endpoints include pathological complete response (pCR), breast-conserving surgery rate, event-free survival (EFS), change in Ki-67 index, and safety. A total of 20 participants will be enrolled.

This study selected patients who underwent cesarean section and were scheduled to undergo Saline Infusion Sonohysterography (SIS) for evaluating the structure of the incision. Clinical characteristics and clinical symptoms were collected. Combined with hysteroscopy, MRI, conventional ultrasound and SIS examination results, the study analyzed the detection rate of cesarean section diverticula by SIS, the changes in diverticulum size and the diagnostic efficacy of residual muscle layer thickness at the incision site. The surgical methods and clinical symptom improvement of patients with CSD after surgery were followed up for half a year to one year. The study aimed to clarify the guiding value of SIS in clinical decision-making and patient prognosis for patients, and to analyze the etiological relationship between the true incidence of CSD and clinical complications. Thus, it provided evidence-based basis for clinical events of cesarean section surgery → CSD → CSD complications → surgical treatment of CSD → patient prognosis, promoting the progress of precise diagnosis and treatment of female reproductive health.

This is a prospective, single-arm, exploratory clinical study designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of retlirafusp alfa combined with chemotherapy (nab-paclitaxel and cisplatin) as a neoadjuvant therapy for patients with resectable locally advanced thoracic esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC).

Background: For patients with resectable stage III-N2b non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), optimal perioperative treatment strategies remain an area of active investigation. Iparomlimab and tuvonralimab (QL1706) is a novel bifunctional antibody combination targeting PD-1 and CTLA-4, designed to enhance anti-tumor immunity. Objective: This phase II, single-arm, multicenter study aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of neoadjuvant iparomlimab and tuvonralimab (QL1706) in combination with platinum-based chemotherapy in patients with resectable stage III-N2b NSCLC. Study Design and Methods: A total of 28 patients will be enrolled across approximately 4 centers in China. Eligible patients (aged ≥18 years, ECOG PS 0-1) with histologically or cytologically confirmed, resectable stage III-N2b NSCLC (AJCC 9th edition) will receive three cycles of neoadjuvant therapy every three weeks. Patients with non-squamous carcinoma will receive iparomlimab and tuvonralimab (5 mg/kg) plus pemetrexed (500 mg/m²) and carboplatin (AUC 5). Patients with squamous carcinoma will receive iparomlimab and tuvonralimab (5 mg/kg) plus nab-paclitaxel (260 mg/m²) and carboplatin (AUC 5). Surgical resection will be performed within 6 weeks following completion of neoadjuvant therapy. Subsequent adjuvant treatment is at the discretion of the investigator. Key Eligibility Criteria: Key inclusion criteria include pathologically confirmed T\<sub\>any\</sub\>N2b disease with mediastinal nodal status confirmed by EBUS/EUS or mediastinoscopy, and the determination by multidisciplinary team (MDT) assessment that the tumor is completely resectable (R0). Key exclusion criteria include known EGFR or ALK positive mutations, prior anti-cancer therapy for current lung cancer, active autoimmune disease, or uncontrolled hepatitis B or C. Study Endpoints: The primary endpoint is the pathological complete response (pCR) rate. Secondary endpoints include major pathological response (MPR) rate, objective response rate (ORR), R0 resection rate, event-free survival (EFS), overall survival (OS), impact on surgical outcomes, and safety. Exploratory endpoints involve biomarker analysis including ctDNA. Sample Size Rationale: Assuming a null hypothesis pCR rate (P0) of 8.8% (based on historical data) and an expected pCR rate (P1) of 28%, with a two-sided α of 5% and 80% power, 24 patients are required. Factoring in a 15% inoperable rate, the total sample size is 28 patients. Statistical Analysis: The primary endpoint, pCR rate, and other binary endpoints will be summarized with frequencies, percentages, and their 95% confidence intervals calculated using the Clopper-Pearson method. Time-to-event endpoints (EFS, OS) will be analyzed using the Kaplan-Meier method. Safety data will be summarized descriptively. Clinical Trial Information: This study is sponsored by The Second Affiliated Hospital of Air Force Medical University, PLA. The Principal Investigator is Dr. Yan Xiaolong.

This is an open-label, dose-escalation study on the safety, tolerability and preliminary efficacy for preventing stroke-associated pneumonia of propranolol in patients with intracerebral hemorrhage. Propranolol is administered via intravenous pump continuously for 7 days.

The purpose of the present study is to study the effect of baricitinib administration on outcome of participants with moderate and severe traumatic intracerebral hemorrhage/contusions.

The purpose of IMPACT-LVO trial is to investigate the efficacy and safety of early adjunctive intra-arterial combined with intravenous administration methylprednisolone sodium succinate after successful endovascular thrombectomy in anterior circulation large vessel occlusion patients. This is a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial. Acute ischemia stroke patients with anterior circulation large vessel occlusion within 24 hours from last known well will be screened for this trial. Successful recanalization after mechanical thrombectomy (eTICI 2b-3) patients will be randomized 1:1 to either methylprednisolone sodium succinate group or placebo group. The methylprednisolone sodium succinate group patients will receive intra-arterial methylprednisolone sodium succinate 40mg immediately after the recanalization. Then, intravenous administration with methylprednisolone sodium succinate 2mg/kg in the next 3 days. The placebo group patients will receive intra-arterial and intravenous sterile water for injection. The shift on modified Rankin Scale score is designed to detect in the present trial. A sample size of n = 178 patients (n=89 per group) is required. The intention-to-treat principle will be applied to the primary analysis, therefore, to safeguard against dilution of the treatment effect associated with an approximate 15% non-adherence rate (due to loss to follow-up, consent withdrawal and other reasons), we planned to enrol n=210 patients (n=105 per group) for this study. The findings of IMPACT-LVO are likely to have a direct impact on clinical practice.

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if Ensartinib combined with chemotherapy works as a neoadjuvant treatment for patients with stage II-IIIB (N2) ALK-positive non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). It will also learn about the safety of this combination therapy. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Does Ensartinib combined with chemotherapy lead to a pathological complete response (pCR) in surgically removed tumor tissue after neoadjuvant treatment? * What medical problems do participants have when taking Ensartinib combined with chemotherapy? This is a single-arm study, meaning all participants will receive the investigational treatment. There is no placebo or active comparator group. The study will be conducted in two stages; the second stage will proceed only if no special, unexpected, or serious adverse events related to Ensartinib occur during the first stage involving 5 participants. Participants will: * Receive neoadjuvant treatment with Ensartinib (taken orally once daily) plus Pemetrexed and Carboplatin (administered intravenously every 3 weeks) for 9 weeks (3 cycles). * Undergo surgical resection within 4 weeks after completing neoadjuvant therapy. * Attend regular clinic visits for check-ups, blood tests, and imaging scans (CT, MRI) according to a detailed schedule during the neoadjuvant, surgical, and long-term follow-up periods (up to 10 years). * Be monitored for adverse events and survival outcomes.

This study consists of two parts evaluating the efficacy and safety of a fully degradable sinus drug-eluting stent in patients with eosinophilic chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (ECRSwNP). Part A assesses the efficacy and safety of the stent when used immediately after functional endoscopic sinus surgery (FESS). Part B evaluates the stent in patients with early postoperative recurrence of ECRSwNP. The study aims to answer the following key questions: Does the use of the stent reduce the recurrence of nasal polyps? Can the stent reduce the need for oral corticosteroids? The fully degradable sinus drug-eluting stent is compared with intranasal corticosteroids (Part A) and oral corticosteroids (Part B) to determine whether it offers therapeutic benefit in the management of ECRSwNP. Participant Procedures: Part A: Participants will either receive the fully degradable sinus stent or daily intranasal corticosteroids for 6 months. Follow-up visits will occur at Week 2, Week 4, Week 8, Week 12, and Month 6 to record symptoms and adverse events. Part B: Participants will either receive the fully degradable sinus stent or oral corticosteroids (based on disease progression) for 6 months. Follow-up visits will be conducted at Week 2, Week 4, Week 8, Week 12, and Month 6 for symptom assessment and documentation of adverse events.

The purpose of this prospective observational cohort study is to evaluate the effect of routine clinical anticoagulant therapy on endometrial receptivity and subsequent pregnancy outcomes in women with infertility. Researchers will utilize an ultrasound multimodal system to systematically assess endometrial parameters, including thickness, morphology, peristalsis, and blood flow indices. The study aims to enroll approximately 300 infertile women aged 20 to 45 years. Participants will be observed and grouped based on whether they receive anticoagulant medications, such as aspirin or heparin sodium, as part of their standard clinical care. The study will track ultrasound-based receptivity indicators and follow up on pregnancy status and outcomes at 45 and 90 days of gestation. This study is purely observational, and all clinical treatment decisions are made independently of the study protocol.

This study is a prospective, randomized, controlled study, which intends to enroll patients with suspected early-stage NSCLC (non-small cell lung cancer) with a diameter of ≤ 3 cm as research subjects. The study is conducted in accordance with the Declaration of Helsinki. It has been approved by the Ethics Committee of the Second Affiliated Hospital of Air Force Medical University, and patients or their family members have signed the informed consent form.
