Childhood simple obesity has become a significant public health issue in China. Modern medicine primarily relies on lifestyle interventions and often suffers from poor long-term compliance， while pharmacological options are limited and associated with potential adverse effects. Traditional Chinese Medicine （TCM） has a long history in the prevention and management of this condition， demonstrating eight distinct advantages， including systematic theoretical foundation， diversified therapeutic approaches， definite therapeutic efficacy， high safety profile， good patient compliance， comprehensive intervention strategies， emphasis on prevention， and stepwise treatment protocols. Additionally， TCM is characterized by six distinctive features： the use of natural medicinal substances， non-invasive external therapies， integration of medicinal dietetics， simple exercise regimens， precise syndrome differentiation， and diverse dosage forms. By combining internal and external treatments， TCM facilitates individualized regimen adjustment and holistic regulation， demonstrating remarkable effects in improving obesity-related metabolic indicators， regulating constitutional imbalance， and promoting healthy behaviors. However， challenges remain， such as inconsistent operational standards， insufficient high-quality clinical evidence， and a gap between basic research and clinical application. Future efforts should focus on accelerating the standardization of TCM diagnosis and treatment， conducting multicenter randomized controlled trials， and fostering interdisciplinary integration， so as to enhance the scientific validity and international recognition of TCM in the prevention and treatment of childhood obesity.

Objective:To explore the correlation between color Doppler ultrasound, Cyfra21-1, Fer and malignant ovarian lesions and the value of combined model identification.Methods:A total of 108 patients with suspected ovarian cancer admitted to our hospital from Jan. 2021 to Dec. 2023 were selected as subjects. All patients were tested by color Doppler ultrasound, Cyfra21-1 and Fer, and were divided into malignant group (61 cases) and benign group (47 cases) according to the pathological test results. The baseline data, ultrasound parameters, Cyfra21-1 and Fer levels of the two groups were compared, and multivariate regression analysis was performed to establish a multi-factor combined model, and ROC curve was used to evaluate the differential efficacy of the combined model.Results:There was no significant difference in baseline data such as age and course of disease between the two groups ( P>0.05). In the malignant group, the lesion diameter was (7.66±1.24) cm, with solid echo detection in 37 cases and inner wall with nipple detection in 38 cases. In the benign group, the lesion diameter was (5.14±1.03) cm, with solid echo detection in 18 cases and inner wall with nipple detection in 17 cases. In the malignant group, PS was (22.94±4.61) cm/s, EDV was (15.67±3.42) cm/s, VM was (12.43±3.15) cm/s. PS, EDV and VM in benign group were (15.63±4.24) cm/s, (8.95±3.04) cm/s and (17.08±4.21) cm/s respectively, and those in malignant group were higher than those in benign group ( P<0.05). RI in the malignant group was 0.35±0.06, RI in the benign group was 0.58±0.13, and RI in the malignant group was lower than that in the benign group ( P<0.05). Multivariate regression analysis showed that lesion diameter, solid echo, inner wall with papilla, PS, EDV, VM, Cyfra21-1, Fer and RI were all independent risk factors for ovarian malignant lesions, and lesion diameter, solid echo, inner wall with papilla, PS, EDV, VM, Cyfra21-1 and Fer were positively correlated with ovarian malignant lesions. RI was negatively correlated with ovarian malignant lesions ( P<0.05). ROC curve results showed that the diagnostic efficiency of the combined model was higher than that of the single use of Doppler ultrasound, Cyfra21-1 and Fer. Conclusion:The combined diagnosis model of color Doppler ultrasound, Cyfra21-1 and Fer is helpful to improve the diagnostic efficiency of ovarian malignant lesions.

Objective To investigate the status quo and its influencing factors of nurses'organizational silence in 3 Grade A general hospitals.Methods Convenient sampling method was used to investigate clinical nurses in 3 Grade A general hospitals in Xi'an from April to August 2023 by general data questionnaire,nurses'organizational silence questionnaire and hospital magnetic factor scale.Multiple linear regression was used to analyze the influencing factors of organizational silence.Results A total of 855 nurses completed the study.The total silence score of nurses was(56.33±8.55);The total score of hospital magnetic level was(107.63±12.85).There was a negative correlation between nurse tissue silence and hospital magnetic level(r=-0.318,P<0.01).Hospital magnetic level,age,job title and working time were the influential factors of nurses'organizational silence(all P<0.001),which together explained 62.60%of the variation.Conclusions The silence of nurses'tissue and the level of hospital magnetism are in the low-medium level.Nurses are younger in age,lower in professional title,shorter in nursing age and lower in hospital magnetism level,the higher the tissue age level is,the nursing managers can reduce the tissue silence of nurses by improving the hospital magnetism level.

To investigate the effects of ORF9 gene of porcine circovirus type 2(PCV2)on PK-15,eu-karyotic expression plasmid was constructed and transfected into PK-15 cells,and the effects of overexpression of ORF9 on proliferation,apoptosis and immunization of PK-15 cells were exam-ined by flow cytometry and qRT-PCR.The results showed that ORF9 gene overexpression signifi-cantly up-regulated the expression levels of the ER stress marker gene GRP78,increased the num-ber of S phase cells,accelerated cell cycle progression,increased the apoptosis rate of PK-15 cells,up-regulated the expression levels of apoptosis-related genes caspase-3,caspase-8,caspase-9,p53 and Bax(P＜0.01),down-regulated the expression levels of apoptosis-related genes Bcl-2,up-reg-ulated the expression levels of immune-related genes 1L-8,IL-10,NF-κB and TNF-α(P＜0.01),and down-regulated the expression levels of immune-related genes IL-2,IFN-β and IL-12(P＜0.01).The above results indicate that ORF9 gene may promote the proliferation and apoptosis of PK-15 cells and play a role in the escape process of PK-15 cells.

Objective To explore the current situation and influencing factors of caregiver readiness of elderly patients with chronic heart failure.Methods From March 2021 to April 2022,the convenient sampling method was used to select 335 caregivers of elderly patients with chronic heart failure who were hospitalized in 6 hospitals in Hangzhou as the survey subjects.The general information questionnaire,Caregiver Readiness Scale and Caregiver Burden Scale were used to investigate the caregivers of elderly patients with chronic heart failure.Results A total of 326 valid questionnaires were collected.The score of Caregiver Readiness Scale for elderly patients with chronic heart failure was(18.88±6.36),and 61.04%of the caregivers had mild to moderate burden.The results of multiple linear regression analysis showed that the caregiver's age,education level and cumulative care time were the positive influencing factors of the caregiver readiness,and the caregiver burden was the negative influencing factor of the caregiver readiness(P＜0.001).Conclusion The caregiver readiness of elderly patients with chronic heart failure is at a medium level.Caregivers who are older,more educated,have a longer cumulative caregiving time,and have a lighter caregiving burden are more prepared.Medical staff should pay attention to the motivation of caregivers,provide professional support from multiple aspects,and reduce the burden of care,increase readiness level.

Objective:To observe the relationship between extended Barthel index (EBI) values and functional independence measures (FIMs) in quantifying the ability in the activities of daily living (ADL) of stroke survivors.Methods:Eighty-six stroke survivors′ ADL ability was assessed using the FIM and the EBI and the results were compared.Results:The inter-rater reliability (ICC) of the EBI was 0.866 and the Spearman correlation coefficient relating the EBI and FIM results was 0.972. The 4 ADL functional levels of the EBI were strongly correlated with the 8 ADL functional levels of the FIMs ( χ2=187, P≤0.001). The complete dependence and extreme dependence ratings of the FIMs (18-35 points) corresponded to the EBI′s " completely needed" . Severe and moderate dependence (36-71 points) corresponded to a lot of help needed. Mild dependence, conditional independence or very mild dependence (72-107 points) corresponded to some help needed. Basic independence and complete independence (108-126 points) corresponded to self-care. Conclusions:The EBI has high reliability and good validity, and its 4 ADL functional levels correspond well with the FIMs′ 8 ADL function levels. The EBI has good clinical applicability.

Objective:To evaluate the current status of the registered pediatric drug or vaccine clinical trials in China for the purpose of providing a reference for the development of pediatric clinical trials in China.Methods:We collected the data about registered pediatric clinical trials that were conducted from September 6, 2013(Mandatory registration start date) to September 6, 2019 (Cut-off date) at Chinadrugtrials.org.cn platform. The survey items included trial name and number, drug classification, sponsor′s information, current trial status, completion status, etc. The clinical trials were categorized by drug group (includes chemical medicine, traditional Chinese medicine and natural medicine, biological products) and by vaccine group.Results:During the six years 349 pediatric clinical trials were registered on the platform, including 162 pediatric drug trials and 187 vaccine trials. The numbers of chemical drugs and biological products registered in 2018 were 23 and 11, respectively, the highest in the history. The number of pediatric clinical trials of traditional Chinese medicine and natural medicine was 11 in 2014, but from 2015 to 2018 only 2 to 4 trials were registered each year. The overall completion rates of the registered drug and vaccine clinical trials were 22.8% (37/162) and 41.7%(78/187), respectively. Only 42 international multicenter pediatric clinical trial projects were registered on the platform. The numbers of drug and vaccine phase Ⅰ clinical trials were 4 and 46, respectively. Thirty-six pediatric endocrine system agent clinical trials were carried out, with the largest number of all the drug categories registered on the platform.Conclusions:In recent years the number of registered pediatric drug and vaccine clinical trials increased in China. However, the number is still very limited. It is urgent to further promote the development of pediatric clinical trials.

Objective: To explore the spatial distribution of low birth weight (LBW) and the potential environmental risk factors and provide the evidence for the prevention and intervention of LBW. Methods: Data were from a surveillance system for newly born population and adverse pregnancy outcome between 2007 and 2012 in Pingding county, Shanxi province. The data from 313 villages were analyzed. Spatial hierarchical Bayesian model was used to adjust the risk of LBW at village level, Moran’s I and Getis-Ord Gi* were used to analyze the difference in distribution of LBW risk area. Spatial negative binomial model was used to evaluate the association between the risk of LBW and chemical fertilizer application. Results: A total of 18 749 new births were recorded between 2007 and 2012, including 911 LBW cases, the total incidence of LBW was 4.86%. The result of the spatial hierarchical Bayesian model showed that high-risk area of LBW was in the southeast of Pingding and low-risk area was in the middle west of Pingding. The result of Moran’s I showed that there was a clustering pattern of LBW risk, and Getis-Ord Gi* found a high risk (hot spot) area in the south area. Moreover, the findings of association analysis showed that the risk of LBW increased with the increased chemical fertilizer application at village level. Conclusions There were area specific differences in the risk of LBW, and dose-response relationship between chemical fertilizer application and the risk of LBW. Our findings suggest that maternal exposure to chemical fertilizer during pregnancy might be a potential risk factor for LBW in rural area.

Hepatocellular carcinoma is the major complication of various end -stage chronic liver diseases.Studies have shown that intestinal barrier injury and intestinal flora disturbance are commonly seen in patients with liver diseases , which may cause intestinal bacterial translocation and endotoxemia.Toll -like receptor 4 (TLR4) is a pattern recognition receptor in the liver and can bind to lipopolysaccharide (LPS), the active ingredient of endotoxin, result in immune inflammatory response via various signal transduction pathways , and finally promote hepatic fibrosis and tumorigenesis.This article reviews the intestinal microbiota -LPS -TLR4 axis and the pathogenesis of hepatocellu - lar carcinoma.
