Objective To evaluate the disease risk of Vibrio parahaemolyticus (VP) in aquatic products of raw food in Guangzhou. Methods VP detection was carried out in aquatic products of raw food sold in Guangzhou from 2009 to 2022. Gene sequence and wgSNP analysis of 30 VP strains (including 15 food strains and 15 patient strains) were performed for the detection rate of pathogenic VP. sQMRA was applied to assess VP risk of aquatic products of raw food. Results The detection rate of VP in raw aquatic products in Guangzhou was 7.30% (98/1 343). The detection rate of TDH virulence gene in patient strains was 86.70% (13/15) , and the detection rate of TRH was 6.67% (1/15). In 15 food strains, TDH and TRH were negative. The WgSNP analysis showed that 2 food strains had high similarity with the patient strains, indicating the same cluster. Risk assessment showed that the number of Vibrio parahaemolyticus infection cases caused by intaking aquatic products of raw food in Guangzhou was 384 ever year. Conclusion The detection rate of VP in aquatic products of raw food is high in Guangzhou , and the detection rate of VP virulence genes in aquatic products of raw food is low. Gene sequence and wgSNP analysis can be used for risk assessment of food pathogenic bacteria. The risk of disease of Vibrio parahaemolyticus in aquatic products of raw food is high.

Objective:To explore the hearing changes of children with different genotypes of SLC26A4 with enlarged vestibular aqueduct(EVA) using the linear mixed effect model(LMM), providing evidence for the risk prediction of progressive hearing loss. Methods:A total of 48 children with EVA diagnosed in our hospital from January 2017 to January 2024. All subjects underwent two or more auditory tests. According to the results of deafness gene screening and sequencing, the genotypes are divided into: type A: homozygous mutation of c. 919-2A>G, type B: compound heterozygous or heterozygous mutation containing c. 919-2A>G, and type C: no mutation site of c. 919-2A>G of SLC26A4 gene. LMM was used to analyze the hearing thresholds change of 500 Hz, 1 000 Hz, 2 000 Hz, 4 000 Hz and the average in children with different genotypes with age. Results:A total of 92 ears, 314 audiograms of 48 children were included, the median number of audiograms was 3, the median age of initial diagnosis was 4 months, and the median follow-up time was 13 months. According to LMM, the standard deviation of random effects between patients and ears was large. There was no significant difference in hearing thresholds of different frequencies and the average in genotype A, genotype B, and genotype C, indicating that genotype had no effect on hearing threshold. There is an interaction between age and genotype. Taking genotype C as the reference, children with genotype B had the lowest increase in 500 Hz, 1000 Hz, and the average hearing threshold, followed by type A. Conclusion:EVA children exhibit substantial inter-individual/ear hearing threshold variability. Low-frequency thresholds progress slower than high frequencies. Genotype modulates progression rates, with wild-type(Type C) demonstrating fastest deterioration, supporting personalized auditory monitoring strategies.

Ovarian cancer, notable for its severe prognosis among gynecologic cancers, has seen substantial progress in treatment approaches recently. Enhanced protocols in chemotherapy and the introduction of poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) inhibitors for maintenance therapy have markedly improved outcomes for patients with specific genetic profiles, such as those positive for BRCA mutations or exhibiting homologous recombination deficiency (HRD). Additionally, the method of intraperitoneal chemotherapy administration has emerged as a valuable alternative to traditional transvenous routes, showing promise for wider clinical adoption. The field of surgery has also evolved, with increasing exploration into the benefits and feasibility of laparoscopic methods over more invasive traditional surgeries, aiming for complete tumor removal but with reduced patient impact. The hereditary nature of ovarian cancer underscores the importance of genetic testing, which has become integral in tailoring treatment strategies, particularly in determining suitability for PARP inhibitors.The formation of the East Asian Gynecologic Oncology Trial Group (EAGOT) aims to optimize treatment across Japan, Korea, China, and Taiwan. The ovarian cancer committee of EAGOT shared the current policies, focusing on 5 topics: 1) strategies for maintenance therapy after initial surgery and chemotherapy, 2) drug regimens for platinum-sensitive and platinum-resistant recurrence, 3) intraperitoneal chemotherapy, 4) laparoscopic surgery as an alternative to laparotomy, and 5) current status of genetic testing (BRCA, HRD, and panel tests) for ovarian cancer and its prospects. EAGOT’s multi-national trials aim to harmonize these evolving treatment strategies, ensuring that the latest and most effective protocols are accessible across the region, thereby significantly impacting patient outcomes in East Asia.

Objective:
To evaluate the efficacy of a self-developed mobile augmented reality navigation system (MARNS) in guiding spinal level positioning during intraspinal tumor surgery based on a dual-error theory.
Methods:
This retrospective study enrolled patients diagnosed with intraspinal tumors admitted to Fujian Provincial Hospital between May and November 2023. The participants were divided into conventional x-rays and self-developed MARNS groups according to the localization methods they received. Position time, length of intraoperative incision variation, and location accuracy were systematically compared.
Results:
A total of 41 patients (19 males) with intraspinal tumors were included, and MARNS was applied to 21 patients. MARNS achieved successful lesion localization in all patients with an error of 0.38±0.12 cm. Compared to x-rays, MARNS significantly reduced positioning time (129.00±13.03 seconds vs. 365.00±60.43 seconds, p<0.001) and length of intraoperative incision variation (0.14 cm vs. 0.67 cm, p=0.009).
Conclusion
The self-developed MARNS, based on augmented reality technology for lesion visualization and perpendicular projection, offers a radiation-free complement to conventional x-rays.

Objective:To translate the Pediatric Epilepsy-Specific Health-Related Quality of Life (PedsQL TM Epilepsy Module) into Chinese and test its reliability and validity in children aged 5 to 7 years old and their parents. Methods:Brislin translation model was used for forward translation, back translation, harmonization, and proofreading of the PedsQL TM Epilepsy Module. Chinese version of PedsQL TM Epilepsy Module beta version was developed through cognitive interviews, expert consultations, and pre-surveys for cross-cultural adaptation of the scale. From April to November 2023, convenience sampling was used to select 420 children with epilepsy and their parents admitted to the Children's Hospital of Soochow University as participants for a questionnaire survey to test its reliability and validity. Results:A total of 840 questionnaires were distributed (420 for children and 420 for parents), and 394 valid questionnaires were collected from children and 400 valid questionnaires were collected from parents, and the effective response rates of the questionnaires were 93.81% (394/420) and 95.24% (400/420), respectively. Chinese version of PedsQL TM Epilepsy Module (child report version) included five dimensions and 28 items. Chinese version of PedsQL TM Epilepsy Module (parent agent report version) consisted of five dimensions and 29 items. The content validity indices at the item level were 0.800 to 1.00, while the content validity indices at the scale level were 0.978 and 0.979, respectively. Exploratory factor analysis of two versions of the scale showed that five common factors were extracted, with cumulative variance contribution rates of 64.557% and 75.205%, respectively. Confirmatory factor analysis showed that the models of the two scales fitted well. The total Cronbach's α coefficients of the two scales were 0.906 and 0.914, respectively, with Cronbach's α coefficients for each dimension ranging from 0.869 to 0.991. The total test-retest reliability coefficients of the scale were 0.998 and 0.995, respectively, and the test-retest reliability coefficients of each dimension were 0.803 to 0.995. Conclusions:Chinese version of the PedsQL TM Epilepsy Module has good reliability and validity, and is suitable for evaluating the health-related quality of life of children with epilepsy aged 5 to 7 years old in China.
