Objective:
To learn the status and influencing factors of development among infants at ages of 0 to 36 months in Xiaoshan District, Hangzhou City, so as to provide the reference for promoting healthy development of infants.
Methods:
Infants at ages of 0-36 months who underwent physical examination in Child Health Clinic of Xiaoshan District Community Health Service Center were selected in 2022. General data of infants and their mothers were collected through questionnaires, and the development status of infants was screened by Age and Stages Questionnaire (third edition). Factors affecting the development status were identified using a multivariable logistic regression model.
Results:
A total of 2 519 infants were investigated, including 1 339 males (53.16%) and 1 180 females (46.84%). There were 608 infants with abnormal development of at least one functional area of communication (CM), gross motor (GM), fine motor (FM), problems solving (CG) and personal-social (PS). The abnormal rate was 24.14%, and the abnormal rates of the above functional areas were 9.77%, 6.59%, 7.98%, 6.39% and 9.33%, respectively. Multivariable logistic regression analysis showed that gender (male, OR=1.563, 95%CI: 1.191-2.052), mother's childbearing age (≥35 years, OR=1.411, 95%CI: 1.001-1.988), mother's educational level (lower than junior college, OR=1.460, 95%CI: 1.116-1.912) were factors affecting abnormal development of CM; preterm birth (OR=2.323, 95%CI: 1.315-4.103) was factors affecting abnormal development of GM; gender (male, OR=1.654, 95%CI: 1.225-2.232) was factors affecting abnormal development of FM; gender (male, OR=1.511, 95%CI: 1.086-2.102) and mode of delivery (cesarean section, OR=1.460, 95%CI: 1.060-2.010) were factors affecting abnormal development of CG; gender (male, OR=1.340, 95%CI: 1.019-1.763) and birth weight (low birth weight, OR=1.985, 95%CI: 1.149-3.432) were factors affecting abnormal development of PS.
Conclusions
The rate of abnormal development among infants at ages of 0 to 36 months in Xiaoshan District is 24.14%. Gender, preterm birth, mode of delivery, birth weight, mother's childbearing age and mother's educational level could affect the development status of infants.

Objective:
To reveal the molecular mechanism underlying the compatibility of Salvia miltiorrhiza Bge (S. miltiorrhiza, Dan Shen) and C. tinctorius L. (C. tinctorius, Hong Hua) as an herb pair through network pharmacology and subsequent experimental validation.
Methods:
Network pharmacology was applied to construct an active ingredient-efficacy target-disease protein network to reveal the unique regulation pattern of S. miltiorrhiza and C. tinctorius as herb pair. Molecular docking was used to verify the binding of the components of these herbs and their potential targets. An H9c2 glucose hypoxia model was used to evaluate the efficacy of the components and their synergistic effects, which were evaluated using the combination index. Western blot was performed to detect the protein expression of these targets.
Results:
Network pharmacology analysis revealed 5 pathways and 8 core targets of S. miltiorrhiza and C. tinctorius in myocardial protection. Five of the core targets were enriched in the hypoxia-inducible factor-1 (HIF-1) signaling pathway. S. miltiorrhiza-C. tinctorius achieved vascular tone mainly by regulating the target genes of the HIF-1 pathway. As an upstream gene of the HIF-1 pathway, STAT3 can be activated by the active ingredients cryptotanshinone (Ctan), salvianolic acid B (Sal. B), and myricetin (Myric). Cell experiments revealed that Myric, Sal. B, and Ctan also exhibited synergistic myocardial protective activity. Molecular docking verified the strong binding of Myric, Sal. B, and Ctan to STAT3. Western blot further showed that the active ingredients synergistically upregulated the protein expression of STAT3.
Conclusion
The pharmacodynamic transmission analysis revealed that the active ingredients of S. miltiorrhiza and C. tinctorius can synergistically resist ischemia through various targets and pathways. This study provides a methodological reference for interpreting traditional Chinese medicine compatibility.

Objective:To investigate the clinicopathological features and differential diagnosis of eosinophilic vacuolated tumor (EVT).Methods:Seven cases of EVT with characteristic morphology and unequivocal diagnosis from the Affiliated Hospital of Qingdao University (6 cases), Qingdao, China and the 971 Hospital of PLA Navy (1 case), Qingdao, China between January 2010 and December 2021 were subject to morphological and immunohistochemical analyses. Additionally, whole exome sequencing (WES) was performed in two cases. Twenty-two cases of renal oncocytoma (RO) and 17 cases of eosinophilic chromophobe renal cell carcinoma (eChRCC) diagnosed at the same time were used as controls.Results:Four males and three females with a mean age of 42 years (range: 29-61 years) were included in the study. The tumors were nodular and well-circumscribed, with sizes ranging from 1.5 to 4.5 cm. On cross-section, they appeared gray-red or gray-white, solid, and soft. Tumor cells were arranged in nests, solid sheets, and acinar or small vesicular structures. These cells exhibited eosinophilic cytoplasm with large, prominent clear vacuoles and round nuclei with prominent nucleoli. Perinuclear halos were focally present in four cases, while small tumor cells with sparse cytoplasm and hyperchromatic nuclei were seen in one case. No necrosis or mitosis was noted. Edematous stroma was detected in three cases. All tumors were positive for CD117 and Cathepsin K, but negative for vimentin and CK7. CK20 was positive in scattered individual cells, and Ki-67 positivity ranged from 1% to 4%. Point mutations in MTOR were identified in both patients who were subject to the molecular analysis. Statistical differences in the expression of Cathepsin K, CD10, S-100A1, and Cyclin D1 between EVT and RO ( P<0.05) were significant, so were the differences in the expression of Cathepsin K, CD10, CK7 and claudin 7 between EVT and eChRCC ( P<0.001). Seven patients were followed up for 4 to 96 months (mean, 50 months), with no recurrences or metastases. Conclusions:EVT is a rare renal tumor that shares morphological and immunophenotypic features with RO and eChRCC, and it is closely linked to the TSC/MTOR pathway. The presence of large prominent transparent vacuoles in eosinophilic cytoplasm along with conspicuous nucleoli is its key morphological characteristics. The use of combined immunohistochemical stains greatly aids in its diagnosis. Typically, the tumor exhibits indolent biological behaviors with a favorable prognosis.

Objective:To compare the differences in radiation dose and image quality between cone-beam CT (CBCT) and multi-slice spiral CT (MSCT) applied to atlantoaxial spine imaging.Methods:Head and neck phantom was scanned at 30 exposure parameter combinations using Pramerica CBCT scanner and 15 parameter combinations using Toshiba 320-row MSCT. The effective dose ( E) of CBCT was calculated based on the Monte Carlo dose estimation software PCXMC, the E value of MSCT was obtained by multiplying the dose length product (DLP) by the related factor. t-test for two independent samples or Wilcoxon rank sum test were used for comparison of radiation dose and subjective and objective image quality between two modalities. The subjective evaluation was a 5-point subjective scale using double-blind method for edge sharpness, contrast, soft tissue level, and artifacts of the images. The signal and noise in the region of interest (ROI) were measured and the contrast signal-to-noise ratio (CNR) was calculated. Results:For radiation dose, the volumetric dose index and E values of 2.9 mGy and 27.61 μSv for CBCT were lower than those of 8.8 mGy and 433.16 μSv for MSCT, and the differences were statistically significant( z=-3.05, -5.25, P<0.05). For objective evaluation of image quality, the noise and CNR were 27.74 HU and 3.69 in CBCT group, 7.84 HU and 27.1 in MSCT group. The difference between them were statistically significant( z=-5.39, -5.42, P<0.05). The overall image quality, contrast and artifact scores of the CBCT group were 3.5, 3.0 and 5 were higher than those of the MSCT group at 2.0, 2.0, and 4.0, respectively ( z=-2.32, -2.46, -3.31, P<0.05). Conclusions:Both atlantoaxial CBCT and MSCT scans provide image quality that meets diagnostic requirements. Compared to MSCT, CBCT atlantoaxial scans can effectively reduce radiation dose according to the principle of optimization of radiation protection.

【Objective】 To investigate the variation of hematological parameters in male plateletpheresis donors. 【Methods】 A total of 194 male plateletpheresis donors from Fujian Blood Center were divided into two groups according to the frequency of blood donation: Group 1 (n=107), with the number of plateletpheresis donation less than or equal to 12 per year; Group 2 (n=87), with the number of plateletpheresis donation more than 12 per year. Serum ferritin (SF) and related iron metabolism indexes, red blood cell count (RBC), hemoglobin (Hb), hematocrit(Hct), platelet count (Plt) and other blood routine indexes, as well as percentage of reticulocyte counts (RET%), immature reticulocyte fraction(IRF) and other reticulocyte indexes were measured before blood donation and analyzed by statistical methods. 【Results】 Compared with Group 2, the RBC, Hb, Hct, SF in Group 1 were significantly higher, while Plt, RET%and IRF were significantly lower(P<0.05), and the probability of ferritin decrease in Group 1 was lower, with significant difference(P<0.05). 【Conclusion】 As the number of donation increased, male plateletpheresis donors were prone to iron deficiency, and the bone marrow hematopoiesis were obviously enhanced. We should be more concerned about male plateletpheresis donors who donated more than 12 times per year, further more, SF monitoring should be conducted and the blood donation interval should be appropriately extended.
