OBJECTIVE To investigate the mechanism by which Qiaobai cold compress solution （QBCS） improves acne vulgaris （AV） based on transcriptomics and animal experiments. METHODS Rats were randomly divided into a blank control group （ n ＝6） and a modeling group （ n ＝30）. AV models were established in the modeling group by topical application of oleic acid to the inner surface of both ears， combined with subcutaneous injection of Cutibacterium acnes suspension into the auricle. Successfully modeled rats were further divided into the model group， positive control group （Tretinoin cream， 0.045 g/kg）， and QBCS low-， medium-， high-dose groups [3.55， 7.11， 14.22 g/kg （calculated by the amount of crude drug） ] ， with 6 rats in each group. Rats in each d rug group were treated with the corresponding drugs once daily for 14 consecutive days. After the final administration， changes in the appearance of the ears and histopathological changes in the ear tissues were observed， and serum levels of inflammatory factors， including tumor necrosis factor-α （TNF-α）， interleukin-6 （IL-6） and IL-1β， were measured. Auricular tissues from the blank control group， model group and QBCS medium-dose group were collected for transcriptome sequencing. Differential expressed genes （DEGs） were screened and subjected to Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes pathway enrichment analysis， followed by validation using real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction and Western blot assay. RESULTS Compared with the model group， rats in all QBCS groups showed alleviated auricular acne symptoms， with reduced epidermal thickening， sebaceous gland hyperplasia， and inflammatory cell infiltration. Serum levels of TNF-α （except for the QBCS low-dose group）， IL-6 （except for the QBCS low-dose group） and IL-1β were significantly decreased （ P ＜0.05）. A total of 590 DEGs were identified （blank control group vs. model group）， and 596 DEGs were identified （model group vs. QBCS medium-dose group）. Above DEGs （blank control group vs. model group） were mainly enriched in Toll-like receptor （TLR） and nuclear factor-kappa B （NF-κB） signaling pathways， etc. Validation experiments showed that， compared with model group， low-， medium- and high-dose of QBCS reduced， to varying degrees， the mRNA expression of TNF-α， TLR2， interferon-γ and CXC chemokine ligand 8 in the auricular tissues of AV rats， increased the mRNA expression of peroxisome-proliferator-activated receptor gamma and tumor protein 53， and inhibited the phosphorylation of NF-κB p65 protein as well as the expressions of TLR2 and myeloid differentiation primary response protein 88（MyD88） （ P ＜0.05）. CONCLUSIONS QBCS can alleviate auricular inflammation and skin lesions in AV rats. This effect may be related to inhibition of the TLR/MyD88/NF-κB signaling pathway， thereby suppressing the expression of downstream inflammatory factors such as TNF-α.

Objective: To investigate the prevalence of depressive symptoms and their associated factors among students in Zhejiang Province, so as to provide evidence for targeted prevention strategies. Methods: A stratified cluster random sampling method was used to select 23 829 college students and primary and secondary school students aged 11-22 years in Zhejiang Province from December 2019 to February 2020. Depressive symptoms were assessed using the Center for Epidemiologic Studies Depression Scale (CES-D). Three machine learning algorithms, including Logistic regression, random forest, and eXtreme Gradient Boosting (XGBoost), were applied to construct predictive models, and key associated factors were identified by comparing model performance. Results: The detection rate of depressive symptoms among students in Zhejiang Province was 19.92%; the rates were 17.20% in boys and 22.87% in girls( χ 2=164.89, P <0.05). The CES-D total score was 9.00(4.00,13.00). Multiple Logistic regression analysis revealed that loneliness had the strongest association with depressive symptoms ( AOR =9.58, 95% CI =8.90-10.30), while bullying exposure ( AOR =4.39, 95% CI =4.02-4.80), female students( AOR =1.81, 95% CI =1.68-1.94)，never eating breakfast ( AOR = 2.34，95% CI =2.00-2.67) and overweight/obesity( AOR =1.10，95% CI =1.08-1.12) were significant associated factors of depressive symptoms among students (all P <0.05). Analysis based on the XGBoost model produced highly consistent results, identifying the above 5 factors as the core features with the highest correlation strength (all P <0.05). Conclusions Female, loneliness, bullying exposure, frequency of weekly breakfast and BMI are strongly associated with depressive symptoms among students. Mental health education for high risk groups should be strengthened, and coordinated prevention efforts between families and schools are recommended.

The incidence of low birth weight of ne wborn [OR＝0.64， 95%CI （0.41， 0.98）， P ＝0.04 ] in the experimental group was significant lower than control group 2； but there was no significant difference in the incidence of PE [OR＝0.61， 95%CI （0.25， 1.49）， P ＝0.28 ] ， the incidence of GDM [OR＝0.73， 95%CI （0.42， 1.24）， P ＝0.24 ] ， premature delivery rate [OR＝0.90， 95%CI （0.59， 1.39）， P ＝0.63 ] ， cesarean delivery rate [OR＝0.92， 95%CI （0.64， 1.33）， P ＝0.66 ] ， or stillbirth rate [OR＝0.68， 95%CI （0.24， 1.94）， P ＝0.48 ] . CONCLUSIONS Different doses of vitamin D supplementation in early pregnancy have a significant impact on maternal and infant pregnancy outcomes in vitamin D-deficient pregnant women； daily doses ＞2 000 IU have significant advantages in reducing the incidence of PE and GDM and improving the outcome of premature delivery.

Objective To prepare virus-like particles (VLPs) for yellow fever virus (YFV) using the pACYCDuet-1 single-plasmid dual expression system. Methods Gene fragments including NS1, NS5, and 5' untranslated region (UTR) and 3' UTR fragment of YFV were cloned into the expression plasmid pACYCDuet-1-MS2-TMpac (carrying MS2 coat protein gene) and transformed into E. coli BL21(DE3) for expression. VLPs were observed by TEM. After DNase I/RNase A digestion, RNA was extracted and transcribed into cDNA, which was subjected to fluorescence quantitative PCR detection. Results According to SN/T 3560-2013, double digestion and colony PCR of pACYCDuet-1-MS2-TMpac-YFV both produced expected bands. SDS-PAGE showed a target band at 25-35 kDa. RT-PCR amplified VLPs after enzyme digestion, and TEM revealed VLPs with clear edges and translucent interiors. Thus, the plasmid was successfully constructed, and the phage coat protein packaged YFV genes with nuclease resistance. Conclusion VLPs containing specific gene fragments of yellow fever virus have been successfully prepared. These nuclease-resistant VLPs can serve as safe and stable quality control materials to ensure the reliability of laboratory detection for YFV.

Objective:To summarize and investigate the ultrasound manifestations, clinical characteristics, causes, and prognosis of hepatic portal vein gas (HPVG) after liver transplantation in children.Methods:A case series study. Clinical data of 9 pediatric recipients diagnosed with HPVG by ultrasound after liver transplantation between January 2012 and August 2023 were collected, and the ultrasound manifestations, causes, clinical features, and prognosis of HPVG were analyzed.Results:A total of 1,850 pediatric liver transplantations were performed during the same period in Tianjin First Central Hospital, among which 9 cases (0.48%) developed HPVG; 6 cases occurred within 1 month after surgery, and 3 cases occurred more than 1 month after surgery; the duration ranged from 2 to 15 days, with a median of 7 (4.5, 9.0) days. HPVG was first detected by ultrasound in all cases, with common ultrasound manifestations including bubble-like or punctate strong echoes flowing with blood in the portal vein, and patchy strong echoes with unclear borders in the liver parenchyma. Among the 9 patients, 3 had diarrhea with intestinal flora imbalance, 2 had abdominal distension with incomplete intestinal obstruction, 1 had colonic fistula with repeated replacement of Li's tube and concurrent abdominal distension, 1 was experiencing acute T-cell-mediated rejection of the transplanted liver, and the remaining 2 were asymptomatic. Patients with diarrhea and intestinal dysbiosis were treated with Bifidobacterium Lactobacillus triple viable tablets to regulate flora and montmorillonite powder to relieve diarrhea, which gradually subsided. Patients with abdominal distension and incomplete intestinal obstruction were treated with fasting, intravenous nutrition, and enema, and the obstruction gradually resolved, along with disappearance of HPVG.Conclusion:HPVG after liver transplantation has characteristic ultrasound manifestations, and its occurrence may be related to intestinal gas, obstruction, dysbiosis, or mucosal damage. Treatment may be conservative or surgical depending on the underlying cause and severity.

Purpose To investigate the clinical and pathological characteristics of synchronous multiple primary malignancy(sMPM)with lymphoid hematopoietic tissue tumors.Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical and pathological data of 20 cases of sMPM associated with lymphoma.Immunohistochemistry using the En-Vision two-step method was performed to detect the expression of relevant proteins,while FISH and next-generation se-quencing technologies were used to identify gene mutations.Relevant literature was also reviewed.Results There were 14 females and 6 males,aged from 30 to 75 years(median 67 years).All of them manifested as solid organ mas-ses complicated by lymphadenopathy.Lymphohematopoietic tissue tumors consisted of:7 cases of Hodgkin lymphoma(6 cases of classic Hodgkin lymphoma,1 case of nodular lymphocyte predominant Hodgkin lymphoma),13 cases of non-Hodgkin lymphoma(4 cases of Follicular lymphoma,2 cases of small lymphocytic lymphoma/chronic lymphocytic leukemia,2 cases of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma,1 case of plasmablastic plasmacytoma,1 case of marginal zone B-cell lymphoma,1 case of B-lymphoblastic lymphoma,2 cases of peripheral T-cell lymphoma,NOS).Solid tumors con-sisted of:9 cases of papillary thyroid carcinoma,1 case of medullary thyroid carcinoma,2 cases of adenocarcinoma of the lung,2 cases of gallbladder adenocarcinoma,2 cases of invasive carcinoma of the breast,2 cases of gastrointestinal adenocarcinoma,1 case of pleomorphic undifferentiated sarcoma of the lower extremity,and 1 case of oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma.17 patients underwent surgical resection,and 3 patients were diagnosed by core needle biop-sy or excision biopsy.10 cases of lymphoma involved in the lymph nodes of the tumor drainage area,and 10 cases were found to have lymph node involvement in other areas by imaging examination.Among the 5 cases analyzed by targeted next generation sequencing,no revelent genetic changes were founded,and no germline mutations or chromosomal kar-yotype abnormalities were founded.Based on the tumor types,patients received varying degrees of radiotherapy,chem-otherapy,or follow-up.Follow-up information was available in all cases and ranged from 5 to 96 months,15 were sur-vived and four patients died of the tumor,and 1 case was lost to follow-up.Conclusion MPMs with lymphoid hemato-poietic tissue tumors are rare,clinicians and pathologists should be careful to avoid missing the diagnosis of lymphoma.

Pulsatile tinnitus is an uncommon symptom of the ear.Due to its complicated etiology,multiple sites and wide range of involvement,it often brings difficulties to the diagnosis and treatment.At present,the clini-cal dilemma is that there is still a lack of a complete etiological diagnosis system for pulsatile tinnitus at home and a-broad,and the etiology of most pulsatile tinnitus is difficult to determine,and the treatment is uncertain.In this re-view,the etiology of pulsatile tinnitus was classified and summarized from structural factors,metabolic factors and vascular factors,and the corresponding diagnosis and treatment strategies were briefly described.

Objective:To investigate the relationship between propofol anesthesia maintenance and cerebral tissue edema after craniotomy and its protective effect on the brain.Methods:A total of 98 patients who received craniotomy in the Second Affiliated Hospital of Air Force Medical University from June 2022 to June 2023 were selected and divided into control group and observation group according to random number table method, with 49 cases in each group. Sevoflurane was inhaled to maintain anesthesia in the control group after tracheal intubation, and propofol was injected intravenously into the observation group after tracheal intubation. The indexes were compared between the two groups in terms of dynamic changes of cerebral tissue edema, intracranial pressure, brain injury factors [S100 calcified protein β (S100-β), neuron-specific enolase (NSE), glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP)], cerebral oxygen metabolism indexes [arterial blood oxygen content (AVDO 2), arterial blood lactic acid (AVDL), cerebral oxygen metabolism rate (CMRO 2)], oxidative stress indicators [malondialdehyde (MDA), superoxide dismutase (SOD) and glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px)]. Results:There were no significant differences in the degree of cerebral tissue edema, intracranial pressure, brain injury factors, cerebral oxygen metabolism indexes and oxidative stress indexes between the two groups (all P>0.05). There were significant differences in the degree of cerebral tissue edema, intracranial pressure, brain injury factors, cerebral oxygen metabolism indexes and oxidative stress indexes between the two groups after surgery (all P<0.05). The degree of cerebral edema in the observation group at 24 h and 72 h after operation was less than that in the control group, and the difference was statistically significant (all P<0.05). The intracranial pressure after craniotomy, before skull reduction and after operation in the observation group was lower than that in the control group, with statistical significance (all P<0.05). The serum levels of S100-β, NSE, GFAP in observation group were lower than those in the control group after craniotomy, before skull reduction and after operation, and the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.05). AVDO 2, AVDL, CMRO 2 of the observation group after craniotomy, before skull reduction and after surgery were better than those of the control group, with statistical significance (all P<0.05). In terms of oxidative stress indexes after craniotomy, before skull reduction and after surgery, MDA levels in observation group were lower than those in control group, while SOD and GSH-Px levels were higher than those in control group, the differences were statistically significant (all P<0.05). Conclusions:Propofol anesthesia maintenance can alleviate cerebral tissue edema after craniotomy, reduce intracranial pressure, reduce the release of brain injury factors, improve cerebral oxygen metabolism, enhance antioxidant capacity, and significantly protect the brain of patients.

Objective To evaluate the brain injury in children with congenital diaphragmatic hernia(CDH)after surgery through examination methods such as amplitude-integrated electroencephalogram(aEEG),regional cerebral oxygen saturation(rSO2)and neonatal behavioral neurological assessment(NBNA),so as to clarify their diagnostic value.Methods A total of 83 full-term CDH children admitted to our hospital were retrospectively enrolled as the research subjects.According to the brain damage syndrome(BDS)diagnostic criteria,they were divided into brain injury group(n=36)and control group(n=47).We compared the general data of the neonates in the two groups,as well as the modified aEEG scores and rSO2 at admission,14 days after birth,and 28 days after birth.We compared the NBNA scores at 28 days after birth.The receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve was used to analyze the diagnostic value of the three tools for brain injury.Results The modified aEEG scores of the children in the brain injury group at each time point were lower than those in the control group.The rSO2 of the children in the brain injury group was lower than that in the control group at 14 days and 28 days after birth and recovered slowly.The NBNA scores also indicated that the neurodevelopment of the children in the brain injury group was significantly lower than that in the control group.The ROC curve showed that the areas under the curve of combined diagnosis exhibited the best diagnostic efficacy compared with rSO2 used alone at 28 days after birth,aEEG at 28 days after birth,and NBNA scores(the area under the curve:0.968 vs.0.701 vs.0.685 vs.0.870;sensitivity:92.0％ vs.53.7％ vs.87.8％ vs.95.1％;specificity:97.0％ vs.86.1％ vs.50.0％ vs.72.2％).Conclusion The combined application of the modified aEEG score,rSO2,and NBNA has high sensitivity and specificity in the diagnosis of brain injury in children with CDH;therefore,it is worthy of clinical promotion and application.

Objective To explore the diagnostic value of MRI radiomics analysis in mild carpal tunnel syndrome(CTS).Methods Seventy patients with mild CTS and 86 healthy volunteers who underwent wrist MRI examination were retrospectively selected.MRI fat-suppressed proton density weighted imaging(PDWI)were imported into 3D Slicer software,and the region of interest(ROI)delineation was performed by two radiologists independently.The 830 radiomics parameters were extracted,including first-order fea-tures,shape features,texture features,and wavelet-transform features.Radiomics parameter selection was performed through observer intraclass correlation coefficient(ICC),correlation analysis,and multivariate logistic regression.Five diagnostic models were estab-lished,including logistic regression,support vector machine,naive Bayes,decision tree,and random forest.Receiver operating charac-teristic(ROC)curve was used to analyze the diagnostic efficiency of the models.Results Seven radiomics features were selected for inclusion in the diagnostic models.The logistic regression model demonstrated the best performance,with an area under the curve(AUC)of 0.91[95%confidence interval(CI)0.86-0.96],a sensitivity of 88.63%,and a specificity of 89.00%in the training group.In the test group,the AUC was 0.92(95%CI 0.85-0.97),with a sensitivity of 90.48%and a specificity of 84.62%.Conclusion MRI radiomics analysis can be used to diagnose mild CTS,and the logistic regression model demonstrates superior diagnostic per-formance.
