ObjectiveTo investigate the effects of hand-arm bimanual intensive training （HABIT） based on the FITT-CORRECT principles on upper limb function and functional independence in children with spastic hemiplegic cerebral palsy. MethodsA total of 87 children with spastic hemiplegia were enrolled and randomly divided into an observation group （n=44）， which received HABIT based on the FITT-CORRECT principles， and a control group （n=43）， which received conventional HABIT. Both groups received intervention for 6 weeks. The quality of upper extremity skills test （QUEST）， peabody developmental motor scales-fine motor （PDMS-FM）， and the functional independence measure for children （WeeFIM） were administered before and after treatment. The root mean square （RMS） values of the biceps and triceps brachii during maximum isometric contraction of elbow flexion and extension on the affected side were also measured. ResultsBefore treatment， there were no significant differences between the two groups in QUEST， PDMS-FM， WeeFIM scores， or RMS values of the biceps and triceps during maximum isometric contraction of the affected elbow （P>0.05）. After 6 weeks of treatment， no significant change was observed in the RMS values of the triceps during elbow flexion in either group （P>0.05）. All other outcome measures improved significantly in both groups （P<0.05）. The observation group showed significantly greater improvements in dissociated movement and grasp scores of QUEST， grasp and visual-motor integration scores of PDMS-FM， WeeFIM scores， as well as RMS values of the biceps during elbow flexion and both the biceps and triceps during elbow extension on the affected side （P<0.05）. ConclusionCompared with conventional HABIT， HABIT based on the FITT-CORRECT principles is more effective in improving upper limb function and functional independence in children with spastic hemiplegia.

Objective To investigate the expression characteristics of c-MET protein in colorectal cancer (CRC) and its associations with clinicopathological parameters, MET gene amplification status, and prognosis, and to evaluate the concordance between immunohistochemistry (IHC) and fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) detection strategies, thereby providing evidence for patient selection for MET-targeted therapy. Methods A total of 193 formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tissue samples from CRC patients were collected. Immunohistochemistry (IHC) was used to detect c-MET protein expression, and fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) was performed to evaluate MET gene amplification status. The associations between c-MET protein expression and clinicopathological characteristics, including KRAS, NRAS, and BRAF mutation status, as well as progression-free survival (PFS), were analyzed. The concordance between IHC and FISH detection results was also evaluated. Results c-MET protein expression was significantly higher in tumor tissues than in adjacent normal tissues (P<0.05). Significant differences in c-MET expression were observed between primary tumors and liver or peritoneal/pelvic metastatic lesions (P<0.05). The proportion of high c-MET expression was significantly higher in KRAS-mutant patients than in KRAS wild-type patients (41.38% vs. 16.92%, P<0.05). The MET gene amplification rate was 8.29% (16/193), including clustered or diffuse amplification in 1.55% (3/193) and heterogeneous amplification in 6.74% (13/193). No MET exon 14 skipping mutation or amplification was detected by next-generation sequencing (NGS). Using an IHC H-Score≥150 as the threshold, the positive percent agreement (PPA) between IHC-detected c-MET protein expression and FISH-detected MET gene amplification was 100%. All clustered MET amplification regions exhibited diffuse strong c-MET expression (IHC 3+). No statistically significant association was observed between c-MET expression level and PFS (P>0.05). Conclusion High c-MET expression may represent a potential therapeutic target for KRAS-mutant CRC patients. An H-Score ≥150 is recommended as the initial screening threshold to rapidly identify patients suitable for MET-targeted therapy, with FISH testing when necessary. Diffuse strong c-MET expression (IHC 3+) shows high concordance with clustered MET gene amplification.

GPR126, also known as ADGRG6, is one of the most deeply studied aGPCRs. Initially, GPR126 was thought to be a receptor associated with muscle development and was primarily expressed in the muscular and skeletal systems. With the deepening of research, it was found that GPR126 is expressed in multiple mammalian tissues and organs, and is involved in many biological processes such as embryonic development, nervous system development, and extracellular matrix interactions. Compared with other aGPCRs proteins, GPR126 has a longer N-terminal domain, which can bind to ligands one-to-one and one-to-many. Its N-terminus contains five domains, a CUB (complement C1r/C1s, Uegf, Bmp1) domain, a PTX (Pentraxin) domain, a SEA (Sperm protein, Enterokinase, and Agrin) domain, a hormone binding (HormR) domain, and a conserved GAIN domain. The GAIN domain has a self-shearing function, which is essential for the maturation, stability, transport and function of aGPCRs. Different SEA domains constitute different GPR126 isomers, which can regulate the activation and closure of downstream signaling pathways through conformational changes. GPR126 has a typical aGPCRs seven-transmembrane helical structure, which can be coupled to Gs and Gi, causing cAMP to up- or down-regulation, mediating transmembrane signaling and participating in the regulation of cell proliferation, differentiation and migration. GPR126 is activated in a tethered-stalk peptide agonism or orthosteric agonism, which is mainly manifested by self-proteolysis or conformational changes in the GAIN domain, which mediates the rapid activation or closure of downstream pathways by tethered agonists. In addition to the tethered short stem peptide activation mode, GPR126 also has another allosteric agonism or tunable agonism mode, which is specifically expressed as the GAIN domain does not have self-shearing function in the physiological state, NTF and CTF always maintain the binding state, and the NTF binds to the ligand to cause conformational changes of the receptor, which somehow transmits signals to the GAIN domain in a spatial structure. The GAIN domain can cause the 7TM domain to produce an activated or inhibited signal for signal transduction, For example, type IV collagen interacts with the CUB and PTX domains of GPR126 to activate GPR126 downstream signal transduction. GPR126 has homology of 51.6%-86.9% among different species, with 10 conserved regions between different species, which can be traced back to the oldest metazoans as well as unicellular animals.In terms of diseases, GPR126 dysfunction involves the pathological process of bone, myelin, embryo and other related diseases, and is also closely related to the occurrence and development of malignant tumors such as breast cancer and colon cancer. However, the biological function of GPR126 in various diseases and its potential as a therapeutic target still needs further research. This paper focuses on the structure, interspecies differences and conservatism, signal transduction and biological functions of GPR126, which provides ideas and references for future research on GPR126.

Abstract The construction of autism spectrum disorders (ASD) specialty cohorts in China is still in its infancy, and the cost effectiveness is insufficient when relying on diagnostic and treatment processes of child health care to collect ample and high quality data. After 2000, the United States Simons Foundation s ASD Research Initiative, the Early ASD Risk Longitudinal Investigation (EARLI), and the British ASD Study of Infant Siblings (BASIS), which have been built based on Internet recruitment, have provided new insight for the construction of large sample ASD specialty cohorts in China. Future research can further explore and optimize the methods of Internet recruitment, and establish a more comprehensive and accurate ASD specialty cohorts.

Objective To comprehensively analyze the clinical characteristics and risk factors of children with refractory mycoplasma pneumonia(RMPP),precisely identify the joint predictors in these children,and construct a prediction model.This aims to offer a scientific foundation for the early identification of RMPP and the formulation of accurate treatment and medication strategies.Methods A retrospective analysis was performed on the clinical data of 282 children diagnosed with mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia(MPP)who were admitted to the Pediatric Department of the Seventh Medical Center of the Chinese People's Liberation Army General Hospital between August 1,2023,and February 29,2024.Among these children,119 with RMPP were classified into the RMPP group,while the remaining 163 with general MPP(GMPP)were assigned to the GMPP group.The clinical data of both groups,encompassing age,gender,duration of fever,symptoms,laboratory test indices,chest imaging data,complications,etc.,were compared.A logistic probability model(LogP model)for joint application was constructed.The discriminatory ability of the model was evaluated using the area under the receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve,and the calibration of the model was assessed by means of a calibration curve.Results In comparison with the GMPP group,children in the RMPP group exhibited a significantly longer duration of fever(P=0.002).Moreover,they had a higher incidence of complications,including myocardial damage and coagulation dysfunction(P<0.05).Regarding inflammatory markers,the levels of C-reactive protein(CRP),procalcitonin(PCT),and lactate dehydrogenase(LDH)were notably elevated in the RMPP group(P<0.05),whereas the level of albumin(Alb)was lower(P=0.001).In the RMPP group,the levels of interleukin-2(IL-2),interleukin-5(IL-5),interleukin-8(IL-8),interleukin-1β(IL-1β),and D-Dimer were increased,while the levels of interleukin-6(IL-6)and interleukin-17(IL-17)were decreased(P<0.05).Chest computed tomography(CT)scans revealed a higher proportion of lung consolidation,pleural effusion,and atelectasis in the RMPP group(P<0.05).Multivariate logistic regression analysis demonstrated that CRP,total bilirubin(T-BIL),LDH,IL-17,and prothrombin time(PT)were independent risk factors for RMPP(P<0.05).The receiver operating characteristic(ROC)predictive model established based on these factors had an area under the curve(AUC)of 0.787(95%confidence interval[CI]:0.693～0.880),with a cutoff value of 0.421,a sensitivity of 0.786,and a specificity of 0.660.The calibration curve indicated that the predicted probability matched well with the reference probability,and there was no statistical difference in the results of the Hosmer-Lemeshow test(P>0.05).Conclusions The clinical features of children with RMPP are predominantly characterized by prolonged fever,moderate lung lesions,other organ injuries,and high inflammatory markers.CRP,T-BIL,LDH,IL-17,and PT can act as independent risk factors for RMPP.

Objective:To analyze the factors associated with prolonged hospital stay in patients with mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia (MPP) and construct an early identification model.Methods:A case-control study was conducted on 503 newly diagnosed pediatric patients with MPP who received treatment at Suzhou Municipal Hospital from April to December 2023. Clinical data were collected. Patients were divided into an observation group ( n = 240, hospital stay > 8 days) and a control group ( n = 263, hospital stay ≤ 8 days). Logistic regression analysis was used to identify the independent factors that affect hospital stay in the observation group. A Nomogram model was constructed. Results:The incidence of lobar pneumonia in the observation group was significantly higher than that in the control group [62.5% (150/240) vs. 22.4% (59/263), χ2 = 82.94, P < 0.001]. The mean age of the observation group was significantly higher than that in the control group [5.0 (3.0, 7.0) years vs. 4.0 (2.0, 6.0) years, Z = 2.40, P = 0.016]. The hypersensitive C-reactive protein level in the observation group was significantly higher than that in the control group [10.5 (4.8, 22.0) mg/L vs. 6.1 (1.8, 14.2) mg/L, Z = 5.16, P < 0.001]. The ferritin level in the observation group was significantly higher than that in the control group [225.3 (180.9, 271.3) μg/L vs. 177.7 (138.0, 222.0) μg/L, Z = 6.31, P < 0.001]. The albumin level in the observation group was significantly lower than that in the control group [43.7 (41.0, 46.2) g/L vs. 44.4 (42.3, 46.5) g/L, Z = 2.45, P = 0.014]. The total protein level in the observation group was significantly lower than that in the control group [70.0 (66.8, 73.0) g/L vs. 71.5 (67.8, 74.6) g/L, Z = 2.45, P = 0.014]. The lactate dehydrogenase level in the observation group was significantly higher than that in the control group [337.5 (301.5, 391.8) U/L vs. 291.0 (258.0, 332.3) U/L, Z = 3.28, P = 0.001]. The creatine kinase level in the observation group was significantly lower than that in the control group [77.5 (55.3, 115.8) U/L vs. 89.0 (65.0, 126.0) U/L, Z = 2.75, P = 0.006]. The fibrinogen level in the observation group was significantly higher than that in the control group [4.3 (3.4, 4.8) g/L vs. 3.8 (3.0, 4.6) g/L, Z = 4.17, P < 0.001]. After performing univariate binary logistic regression using the glm method to screen variables, multivariate binary logistic regression was conducted. The results showed that the presence of lobar pneumonia, higher levels of hypersensitive C-reactive protein, ferritin, and lactate dehydrogenase were independent risk factors for prolonged hospital stays in children with MPP [ OR (95% CI): 3.803 (2.029,7.129), 0.986 (0.974,0.998), 0.994 (0.990,0.998), 0.989 (0.985,0.993), P < 0.001, 0.027, 0.002, < 0.001]. Conclusions:Based on the fundamental clinical laboratory indicators, an early prediction model was constructed for predicting prolonged hospital stay in children with MPP. This model provides a scientific basis for the early assessment of MPP in children and is suitable for broader application.

The scientific research and innovation capabilities of medical students are intrinsically linked to the sustained and high-quality development of national healthcare initiatives.Cultivating outstanding medi-cal students with independent scientific capabilities and innovative consciousness is a critical component in the education and training of high-level medical professionals.Our investigation revealed that within the imperfections of the cultivating model,some faculty and students at medical schools have an insufficient understanding of scientific research and innovation and lack motivation for engaging in such activities,which hinder the progression of scientific research activities.Consequently,we initiated a teaching practice and exploratory study on the"tutorial system"aimed at fostering medical students'scientific research and innovation abilities.Based on the principle of"research informing teaching,teaching and research advan-cing together,"this study implements a"tutorial system"coordinated by tutors,supplemented by graduate and undergraduate student mentors,to cultivate innovative thinking,stimulate interest in scientific re-search,and enhance practical and research skills among medical students.Through collaborative efforts within"scientific research innovation teams,"various educational methods—including preliminary re-search,in-class and extracurricular activities,intra-group and inter-group interactions,and theoretical and practical applications—are employed to improve and strengthen the cultivation of medical students'scientif-ic research and innovation abilities.This study aims to provide valuable references for optimizing medical education management systems and enhancing the quality of medical student training.

In the field of radiotherapy, radiation-induced bystander and abscopal effects have attracted increasing attention. Studies indicate that these effects can extend from irradiated regions to non-irradiated cells or tissues. Radiation-induced bystander and abscopal effects related to lung can be categorized into lung-lung type, lung-extrapulmonary tissue type, and extrapulmonary tissue-lung type. The mechanism of its occurrence involves oxidative stress, immune response, and the role of extracellular vesicles. These effects exhibit a dual characteristic of inducing damage to normal tissues and increasing tumor therapeutic potential. Immune responses represent a pivotal mechanism, and the combination of radiotherapy with immunotherapy may enhance the incidence of abscopal effects. Researchers are exploring various intervention strategies to control or utilize these effects. Future studies should further investigate the underlying biological mechanisms, particularly in specific organs or sites, to improve the efficacy and safety of radiotherapy. This review explores the latest advances in lung-related radiation-induced bystander and abscopal effects, encompassing their definitions, classifications, mechanisms, functional characteristics, influencing factors, and intervention strategies.

Oral cancer is one of the most common malignant tumors in the head and neck,with approximately 90%of oral cancer being squamous cell carcinoma.Oral squamous cell carcinoma(OSCC)has a high degree of malignancy and a poor prognosis,posing a serious threat human health.The occurrence and development of OSCC are relatively complex,influenced and regulated by multiple factors and levels,and the molecular mechanisms is currently not fully understood.Long non-coding RNA(lncRNA)can exert various biological functions by regulating gene expression and function at the transcriptional,translational,and post-translational lev-els.The occurrence and development of OSCC involve the abnormal expression of lncRNA.Therefore,this article reviews the relevant research on the function and molecular mechanisms of lncRNA in OSCC,in order to provide a reference for future studies.

Mycoplasmatota is a large class of special wall-less prokaryotic microorganisms,which is widely distributed in nature.Among them,Mycoplasma pneumoniae and other important pathogens are harmful to human health.The classification and naming history of Mycoplasmatota are very complex,which leaded to the fact that a species often has multiple homotypic and heterotypic synonyms.At the same time,due to the lack of a unified Chinese translation principle,one name has different translations.Moreover,most of Mycoplasmatota species lack of Chinese translated names and there is a situation of mixing Chinese and English.In 2018,based on whole genome analysis,the taxonomy of Mycoplasmatota underwent significant chan-ges.In order to standardize the Chinese translation of Mycoplasmatota names and end the confusion,and enable the researchers and clinical workers engaged in Mycoplasmatota prevention and treatment to track changes and use the names of Mycoplasma-tota,Beijing Friendship Hospital,Capital Medical University;National Institute for Communicable Disease Control,Chinese Centre for Disease Control and Prevention;Committee of Zoonoses Etiology,Chinese Society for Microbiology and Society of Biodiagnostic Technology,China Medical Biotechnology Association organized experts in this field to conduct literature research and expert discussions,and formed this consensus on the systematic Chinese translation principle and Chinese translation names for all existing levels in Mycoplasmatota.
