ObjectiveTo investigate the urate-lowering effect of Shenling Qushi prescription in the mouse model of hyperuricaemia. MethodsSixty-three C57BL/6N mice were randomly assigned to the following groups （n=9）： Control， model， low-dose （6 g·kg^-1） Shenling Qushi prescription， medium-dose （12 g·kg^-1） Shenling Qushi prescription， high-dose （24 g·kg^-1） Shenling Qushi prescription， medium-dose Shenling Qushi prescription plus febuxostat （12+0.003 g·kg^-1）， and febuxostat （3 mg·kg^-1）. A mouse model of persistent hyperuricaemia was established via intraperitoneal injection of potassium oxazolamide （250 mg·kg^-1） combined with oral administration of allopurinol （300 mg·kg^-1） over a 28-day period. Concurrently， the prescription was administered orally at the specified doses once daily for 21 consecutive days. Throughout the experiment， mouse body weight， food intake， water consumption， and urine output were measured and recorded. Kidney and liver indices were calculated. Renal histopathological changes were observed by haematoxylin and eosin staining. Serum uric acid （SUA） and urinary uric acid （UUA） levels， along with xanthine oxidase （XOD） and adenosine deaminase （ADA）， alanine aminotransferase （ALT） and aspartate aminotransferase （AST） activities， were determined. Real-time PCR was employed to assess the mRNA levels of urate anion transporter 1 （URAT1） and glucose transporter 9 （GLUT9） in the renal tissue， alongside those of XOD and ADA in the liver tissue. The protein levels of URAT1 and GLUT9 in the renal tissue were determined by Western blot. ResultsCompared with the normal group， model mice exhibited reduced food intake and body weight （P<0.01）， decreased water consumption yet increased urine output， no significant change in the liver index but increased kidney index （P<0.01）. Pathological findings revealed renal tissue damage including glomerular atrophy， epithelial cell detachment， and inflammatory cell infiltration. Furthermore， the model group exhibited elevated UUA and SUA levels （P<0.01）， enhanced activities of ALT， AST， XOD， and ADA in the liver tissue （P<0.05， P<0.01）， upregulated mRNA and protein levels of URAT1 and GLUT9 in the renal tissue （P<0.05）， alongside markedly elevated mRNA levels of XOD and ADA in the liver （P<0.01）. Compared with the model group， the Shenling Qushi prescription groups showed no significant changes in body weight or food intake， with water consumption and urine output remaining within normal ranges， alleviated glomerular atrophy， with reduced pathological damage such as inflammatory infiltration， declined UUA and SUA levels （P<0.01）， and increased activities of ALT， AST， XOD， and ADA in the serum （P<0.01）. Real-time PCR results demonstrated that Shenling Qushi prescription downregulated the mRNA levels of URAT1 and GLUT9 in the renal tissue （P<0.05， P<0.01） and XOD and ADA in the hepatic tissue （P<0.05， P<0.01）. Western blot results demonstrated Shenling Qushi prescription reduced the protein levels of URAT1 and GLUT9 （P<0.05， P<0.01）. ConclusionShenling Qushi prescription modulates fluid balance and reduces uric acid levels， thereby alleviating renal injury in hyperuricaemic mice. This effect is highly likely mediated through inhibition of uric acid synthesis and reabsorption.

Objective:To identify competency evaluation indicators for psychological hotline professionals,provi-ding scientific reference for their training and assessment.Methods:Through literature review,initial competency evalua-tion indicators were selected,followed by Delphi consultation with sixteen experts across China.The analytic hierarchy process(AHP)was used to assign weights to each indicators.Results:The response rate of expert consultation question-naire was 100％,and the expert authority coefficients for the two rounds of consultation were 0.92 and 0.90 respective-ly.After two rounds of expert consultation,a competency evaluation index system for professional counselors of psycho-logical aids hotline was constructed,including four first-level indexes,nine second-level indexes,and 34 third-level inde-xes.The weight of each index was determined using the AHP.The Kendall coefficient of concordance of all level's inde-xes in the two rounds of consultation were 0.16-0.18 and 0.16-0.25,respectively.Conclusion:The expert consensus developed in this study serves as an reference for evaluating the competency of psychological hotline professionals,sup-porting their training and assessment.

Objective:To explore the clinical and biochemical characteristics of patients with hyperuricemia according to different pathophysiological subtypes. This may facilitate rapid identification of each subtype in clinical settings and provide evidence for personalized urate-lowering treatment.Methods:Patients diagnosed with hyperuricemia at the Department of Endocrinology and Metabolism, Tenth People′s Hospital of Tongji University between October 2015 and January 2024 were included. Based on 24-h urinary uric acid excretion(UUE) and the fractional excretion of uric acid(FEUA), patients were classified into four subtypes: renal uric acid underexcretion type(RUE), renal uric acid overload type(ROL), combined type and renal normal type. Clinical and biochemical variables-including sex, age, BMI, smoking history, comorbidities, blood glucose, and serum uric acid-were analyzed. Binary logistic regression was used to identify factors associated with each subtype.Results:Among 2 073 patients with hyperuricemia, 55.8% were RUE type, 6.9% were ROL type, 31.3% were combined type and 6.0% were renal normal type. RUE type had lower blood glucose levels and fewer cases of diabetes [ OR=0.685(95% CI 0.478-0.980), P<0.05]. ROL type showed a higher incidence of tophi, positively correlated with smoking history [ OR=1.672(95% CI 1.009-2.771), P<0.05], and negatively correlated with serum uric acid levels [ OR=0.994(95% CI 0.990-0.998), P=0.001]. Combined type had the youngest onset age, shortest disease duration, and the fewest comorbidities, and was associated with higher BMI [ OR=1.035(95% CI 1.001-1.070), P<0.05]. Renal normal type had the oldest age of onset, the highest proportion of female patients and comorbidities, and was associated with lower serum uric acid levels[ OR=0.994(95% CI 0.989-0.998), P=0.007], higher BMI[ OR=1.064(95% CI 1.003-1.129), P<0.05], and increased tophi incidence[ OR=2.261(95% CI 1.206-4.237), P=0.011]. Conclusion:Each pathophysiological subtype of hyperuricemia exhibits distinct clinical and biochemical characteristics, which may serve as useful references for subtype identification and personalized management in clinical practice.

Objective:To develop a Knowledge-Attitude-Practice (KAP) Scale for Dietary Management During Hemodialysis and to test its reliability and validity.Methods:Based on the KAP theoretical framework, an initial version of the scale was developed through a literature review and expert consultations. A convenience sampling method was used to recruit hemodialysis patients from four hospitals in Suzhou in March 2024. Questionnaire item analysis and reliability and validity tests were conducted.Results:A total of 460 questionnaires were distributed and 438 valid responses were collected, with an effective response rate of 95.22%. The final scale included three dimensions (knowledge, attitude, and practice) with 34 items. Content validity at the scale level was 0.910, and the item level ranged from 0.800 to 1.000. Exploratory factor analysis extracted three common factors, with a cumulative variance contribution rate of 74.520%. Confirmatory factor analysis showed a good model fit. The total Cronbach's α coefficient of the scale was 0.971, and the Cronbach's αcoefficients for the three dimensions were 0.963, 0.933, and 0.934, respectively. The test-retest reliability coefficient was 0.839.Conclusions:The Knowledge-Attitude-Practice Scale for Dietary Management During Hemodialysis demonstrates good reliability and validity, making it a valuable tool for assessing the KAP level of dietary management in hemodialysis patients.

Objective To investigate the therapeutic effects of combined magnetic and electrical stimulation with an"intelligent exercise prescription"and novel matrix radiofrequency therapy in patients with pelvic organ prolapse(POP).Methods A total of 158 patients with POP who received treatment at the Gynecological Pelvic Floor Rehabilitation Center of the Eighth Affiliated Hospital of Southern Medical University between October 2022 and July 2025 were retrospectively enrolled and divided into an observation group(n=64)and a control group(n=94)based on their treatment plans.The control group underwent magnetic and electrical stimulation combined with an"intelligent exercise prescription"regimen.Specifically,patients received 10 sessions of electrical stimulation,5 sessions of magnetic stimulation,and performed 15～20 minutes of daily home exercise training guided by the"intelligent exercise prescription."The observation group received,in addition to the aforementioned treatments,four sessions of novel matrix radiofrequency therapy.Changes in the muscle strength grades of type Ⅰ and type Ⅱ pelvic floor muscles,Glazer surface electromyography(EMG)values,and POP-Q staging were compared between the two groups before and after treatment.Results After treatment,both groups demonstrated significant improvements in type Ⅰ and type Ⅱ muscle fiber strength compared to baseline(all P<0.05),with the observation group showing greater improvement in type Ⅰ muscle fiber strength than the control group(P<0.05).The muscle potential values of the observation group during rapid contraction,tense contraction,and endurance contraction stages were markedly increased compared to pre-treatment levels.Moreover,the muscle potential values during the pre-resting stage were significantly reduced after treatment(P<0.05).In the observation group,POP-Q grades of the anterior vaginal wall,uterus,and posterior vaginal wall were all significantly lower post-treatment than pre-treatment(all P<0.05).However,no statistically significant differences were observed between the observation group and the control group in these parameters(P>0.05).Both groups exhibited relatively high compliance rates(both≥75.0%),with no significant difference between them(P>0.05).The treatment cost for the observation group was significantly higher than that for the control group(P<0.05).Conclusions The combination of magneto-electrical stimulation,an"intelligent exercise prescription,"and novel matrix radiofrequency therapy can significantly improve pelvic floor muscle strength and muscle potential values in the short term,compared to pre-treatment levels.This integrated approach also effectively alleviates the prolapse of the anterior vaginal wall,uterus,and posterior vaginal wall.Furthermore,the combination of magnetic and electrical stimulation,"intelligent exercise prescription,"and matrix radiofrequency therapy demonstrates superior efficacy in enhancing type Ⅰ pelvic floor muscle fiber strength when compared to the combination of magnetic and electrical stimulation with"intelligent exercise prescription"alone.However,this treatment protocol entails a relatively high economic burden,and its clinical application should be carefully evaluated in consideration of patients'functional needs and financial conditions.

Objective:To analyze the differences in determination of fluoride level in drinking water by ion-selective electrode method and high-throughput rapid determination method.Methods:The precision test was carried out by using the two methods to measure two kinds of fluoride standard substances, water samples of external quality control assessment from 2021 to 2023 (two kinds each year) and the fluoride level in three drinking water samples (for 5 times/each sample). Accuracy testing was conducted by measuring the external quality control assessment water samples and the spiked recovery rates drinking water, and water samples were grouped (water fluoride ≤1.00, > 1.00 mg/L) and analyzed according to the "Hygienic Standards for Drinking Water" (GB 5749-85). SPSS 23.0 software was used for statistical analysis of the measurement results.Results:(1) The correlation coefficients ( r) of the working curves of the two methods were both > 0.990, meeting the quality control requirements. (2) In the precision test, when comparing the results of the two methods for detecting two kinds of fluoride standard substances, there was no statistically significant difference ( F = 0.36, 0.15, P = 0.564, 0.707), and the coefficients of variation ( CV) were all < 5%. The CV of the detection results of the external quality control assessment water samples and drinking water samples were < 5%. (3) In the accuracy test, when the fluoride concentration in water was ≤1.00 mg/L, there was no statistically significant difference in the spiked recovery rates between the two methods ( F = 0.49, P = 0.504). When the fluoride concentration in water was > 1.00 mg/L, there was a statistically significant difference in the spiked recovery rates between the two methods ( F = 24.75, P = 0.003). Conclusions:The ion-selective electrode method has the advantages of wide detection range and wide adaptability, while the high-throughput rapid determination method has high accuracy. Testing personnel can weigh and choose the appropriate determination method based on the actual laboratory conditions and sample concentration range.
