Objective To explore the effects of family functioning,peer victimization and school connectedness on nonsuicidal self-injury in adolescents,as well as the mediating effect of psychache in these relationships.Methods A total of 525 junior high school students in Foshan City were surveyed using the brief Family Function Scale,Peer Victimization Scale,School Connectedness Scale,Psychache Scale,and Nonsuicidal Self-injury Scale.Descriptive statistics and correlation analyses were performed using SPSS 23.0,and mediation analysis was conducted using Mplus 7.4.Results ① Family functioning could directly predict adolescent non-suicidal self-injury(β=-0.20,P＜0.01),but did not exert an indirect effect through psychache(P=0.123).② Peer victimization could not directly predict adolescent non-suicidal self-injury(β=0.10,P=0.133),but had an indirect effect through psychache,with an indirect effect value of 0.142(P＜0.001).③ School connectedness could not directly predict adolescent non-suicidal self-injury(β=0.13,P=0.053),but had an indirect effect through psychache,with an indirect effect value of-0.128(P＜0.001).Conclusion Psychache fully mediates the relationship between peer victimization,school connectedness,and non-suicidal self-injury in adolescents,but it does not mediate the relationship between family functioning and adolescent non-suicidal self-injury.

The development of malignant tumors is influenced by multiple factors,including genetics,environment,lifestyle,and pathogen infection.Viral infection plays a significant role in tumor development and progression.This article integrates the common pathways of seven oncogenic viruses(HPV,EBV,HBV,HCV,KSHV,HTLV-1,and HIV)based on the theory of cancer toxin pathomechanism.The findings reveal that cancer toxin formation is influenced by both internal factors(healthy qi deficiency,viscus dysfunction,and qi,blood,and body fluid stagnation)and external factors(viral infection,environmental factors,and the six exogenous pathogens),driving tumor development,metastasis,and recurrence.Viral infection not only provides the material foundation for cancer toxin but also accelerates its maturation and spread through chronic inflammation and immune imbalance,forming a complex pathogen-esis of"viral toxicity-endogenous cancer toxin",which translates into a three-stage strategy of"prevention,treatment,and post-recovery prevention".This article systematically discusses the pathogenesis of major cancer toxins and their associated tumors.Inte-grating the cancer toxin theory,the article explores preventive and therapeutic strategies for virus-associated malignancies,providing a theoretical basis and practical reference for the integrated prevention and treatment of tumors using traditional Chinese and Western medicine.

Objective To investigate the clinical value of serum leucine-rich α-2-glycoprotein 1(LRG1),uncoupling protein 2(UCP2)and sestrin2 in evaluating the cognitive status and prognosis of patients with acute ischemic stroke(AIS).Methods A total of 164 AIS patients who were treated and hospitalized in the Department of Neurology of our hospital from April 2020 to May 2023 were selected as the study subjects.According to the Chinese version of the Montreal cognitive assessment scale(MoCA),the patients were divided into cognitive impairment group and non-cognitive impairment group.The levels of serum LRG1,UCP2 and Sestrin2 were compared between the two groups.Pearson correlation analysis was used to test the correlation between serum LRG1,UCP2 and Sestrin2 and MoCA score.After discharge,the patients were followed up for 3 months.The mRS was used to divide the patients into poor prognosis group and good prognosis group.The data and serum levels of LRG1,UCP2 and Sestrin2 were compared between the two groups.Multivariate Logistic regression analysis was used to explore the prognostic factors of AIS patients.ROC curve was constructed to evaluate the predictive efficacy of serum LRG1,UCP2 and Sestrin2 alone and in combination on cognitive status and prognosis of AIS patients.Results There were 115 cases in the non-cognitive impairment group and 49 cases in the cognitive impairment group.The serum levels of LRG1 and UCP2 in the non-cognitive impairment group were significantly higher than those in the cognitive impairment group,while the Sestrin2 level was significantly lower than that in the cognitive impairment group(all P＜0.05).Serum LRG1 and UCP2 levels were positively correlated with MoCA score,while Sestrin2 level was negatively correlated with MoCA score(all P＜0.05).The area under the curve(AUC)of serum LRG1,UCP2 and Sestrin2 in cognitive status of AIS patients was 0.723,0.689 and 0.789,respectively,while the AUC of the combined detection of the three reached 0.892,and the 95％CI of the AUC of all indicators did not contain 0.5(all P＜0.05).There were 134 cases in the good prognosis group and 30 cases in the poor prognosis group.The NIHSS score,mRS score and Sestrin2 level in the good prognosis group were significantly lower than those in the poor prognosis group,while the MoCA score,LRG1 and UCP2 levels were significantly higher than those in the poor prognosis group(all P＜0.05).The increase of NIHSS score(OR=1.419),mRS score(OR=1.153)and serum Sestrin2 level(OR=1.462)were risk factors affecting the prognosis of AIS patients,while the increase of MoCA score(OR=0.657),serum LRG1 level(OR=0.756)and UCP2 level(OR=0.733)were protective factors affecting the prognosis of AIS patients(all P＜0.05).From the AUC value,the combination of the three(0.899)was significantly higher than Sestrin2(0.755),LRG1(0.730)and UCP2(0.712).The combination of sensitivity,specificity and Youden index was also significantly higher than other single indicators(all P＜0.05).Conclusion The combined detection of serum LRG1,UCP2 and Sestrin2 shows higher efficiency than single detection in the evaluation of cognitive status and prognosis of AIS patients,and its AUC,sensitivity,specificity and other indicators are better,providing more accurate and reliable evaluation basis for clinical practice.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the inhibitory effect mechanism of Anzheng Kangliu Decoction against colorectal cancer by suppressing glycolysis through regulation of the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase(PI3K)/protein kinase B(Akt)/mammalian target of rapamycin(mTOR)signaling pathway.METHODS Human colorectal cancer SW620 cells were treated with Anzheng Kangliu De-coction,and cell proliferation and migration abilities were assessed.Forty-two BALB/c nude mice were randomly divided into a blank control group,model group,5-fluorouracil(5-FU)group(0.025 g·kg-1),Anzheng Kangliu Decoction low-dose group(7.67 g·kg-1),medium-dose group(15.34 g·kg-1),and high-dose group(30.68 g·kg-1).The inhibitory effect of Anzheng Kan-gliu Decoction on subcutaneous xenograft tumors was evaluated by observing body weight,tumor volume,tumor mass,HE staining,im-munohistochemical staining of Ki67 and other indicators.High-throughput transcriptome sequencing was performed to identify differen-tially expressed genes and pathways in tumor tissues between the model group and the Anzheng Kangliu Decoction medium-dose group,elucidating the potential mechanism of Anzheng Kangliu Decoction against colorectal cancer.Glucose and lactate assay kits were used to measure glucose consumption and lactate production in SW620 cells and tumor tissues after Anzheng Kangliu Decoction intervention.Western blot was employed to detect the expression levels of p-PI3K/PI3K,p-Akt/Akt,p-mTOR/mTOR,hexokinase 2(HK2),and lactate dehydrogenase A(LDHA)in SW620 cells and tumor tissues following Anzheng Kangliu Decoction treatment.RE-SULTS In vitro cell experiments demonstrated that,compared with the blank control group,Anzheng Kangliu Decoction intervention significantly inhibited the proliferation and migration of SW620 cells(P<0.01),reduced glucose consumption and lactate production(P<0.05,P<0.01),and downregulated the protein expression levels of p-PI3K/PI3K,p-Akt/Akt,p-mTOR/mTOR,HK2,and LDHA(P<0.05,P<0.01).In vivo animal experiments revealed that,compared with the model group,Anzheng Kangliu Decoction suppressed the growth of subcutaneous xenograft tumors in nude mice(P<0.01),increased tumor tissue necrosis,decreased glucose consumption and lactate production in tumor tissues(P<0.05,P<0.01),and reduced the protein expression levels of p-PI3K/PI3K,p-Akt/Akt,p-mTOR/mTOR,HK2,and LDHA(P<0.05,P<0.01).CONCLUSION Anzheng Kangliu Decoction exerts an in-hibitory effect on colorectal cancer,and its mechanism may be associated with the suppression of glycolysis through regulation of the PI3K/Akt/mTOR signaling pathway.

Objective:To analyze the relationship between the optimal surgical margin value and clinical prognosis of transoral robotic surgery（TORS） in treating human papillomavirus（HPV） -positive oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma. Methods:A single-center, prospective, observational cohort study was conducted, enrolling patients with early and moderated stage（≤T3 stage） oropharyngeal carcinoma undergoing TORS between July 2020 and April 2024. The proposed optimal surgical margin cutoff value for TORS was set as 2 mm. The primary objectives were to evaluate the optimal clear margin for TORS and its association with overall survival（OS） and progression-free survival（PFS）. Logistic regression was used to analyze correlations between surgical margins and clinical variables, while Cox regression models assessed the impact of surgical margins on OS and PFS. Results:A total of 90 patients（60 males, 66.7%） were included, all had squamous cell carcinoma, with a mean age of 58.0±9.0 years（range: 39-84 years） old. The 1, 2 and 3-year OS rates were 92.3%, 89.9% and 85.0%, respectively, while the 1, 2 and 3-year PFS rates were all 90.1%. For surgical margins ≤2 mm, the 1, 2 and 3-year OS rates were 80.8%, 69.3% and 69.3%, respectively, and PFS rates were 77.9% across three time points. For surgical margins>2 mm, the 1, 2 and 3-year OS rates were 96.5%, 96.5% and 90.6%, respectively, with PFS rates of 94.6%. Logistic regression showed no correlation between surgical margins and tumor type, T/N stage, smoking, alcohol use, or gender（P>0.05）. Cox analysis identified surgical margins>2 mm as a significant factor improving PFS（HR=0.14, 95%CI 0.02-0.90, P=0.038）. Conclusion:This systematic analysis suggests setting a 2 mm and longer as clear surgical margin for TORS. Margins>2 mm are associated with superior postoperative PFS rate and prolonged PFS time in HPV-positive oropharyngeal carcinoma patients.

OBJECTIVE To provide a reference for revising the safety content of traditional Chinese medicine（TCM） instructions. METHODS A systematic analysis was conducted on the relevant announcements on the revision of TCM instruction from 2013 to 2024， including the year of publication， drug name， drug formulation， announcement release time， and the average number of revisions made to three safety contents （contraindication， adverse drug reaction， and precaution）. According to the report data of national adverse drug reaction monitoring from 2013 to 2024， analyze the proportion of TCM in all adverse drug reactions， the composition ratio of adverse drug reaction of different dosage forms of drugs [TCM injection， oral TCM， other （topical） TCM]. RESULTS From 2013 to 2024， the National Medical Products Administration issued a total of 101 notices on the revision of TCM instruction， involving 241 types of TCM. Among them， there were 163 types of oral TCM， 25 types of TCM injection， and 53 types of other （topical） TCM. There were 3， 10 and 0 types of TCM injection， oral TCM， and other （topical） TCM with missing safety content， respectively. The main source of adverse drug reaction data for TCM injections was post- marketing monitoring data （accounting for 48.00%）； the main source of adverse drug reaction data for oral TCM was monitoring data （accounting for 71.17%）； 73.58% of other （topical） TCM did not mention the source of adverse drug reaction data. The report on national adverse drug reaction monitoring showed that the proportion of all adverse drug reactions of TCM had decreased from 17.3% in 2013 to 12.1% in 2024. Among them， the proportion of adverse drug reaction of TCM injection in the three dosage forms of TCM had decreased from 61.3% in 2015 to 24.6% in 2024， while the proportion of adverse drug reaction of oral TCM in the three dosage forms of TCM had increased from 34.7% in 2015 to 64.0% in 2024. CONCLUSIONS The risk management of TCM safety content has achieved results in China， but still faces three major challenges： strongdependence on passive monitoring， insufficient data traceability， and missing key content. It is urgent to improve safety content by dosage form， optimize data sources， and fully utilize real-world evidence to supplement safety content.

ObjectiveTo explore the clinical safety of Feilike Mixture （FLK） in the real world. MethodsThe safety of all children who received FLK from 29 institutions in 12 provinces between January 21，2021 and December 25，2021 was evaluated through prospective centralized surveillance and a nested case control study. ResultsA total of 3 035 juveniles were included. There were 29 research centers involved，which are distributed across 12 provinces，including one traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） hospital and 28 general hospitals. The average age among the juveniles was （4.77±3.56） years old，and the average weight was （21.81±12.97） kg. Among them，119 cases （3.92%） of juveniles had a history of allergies. Acute bronchitis was the main diagnosis for juveniles，with 1 656 cases （54.46%）. FLK was first used in 2 016 cases （66.43%），and 142 juvenile patients had special dosages，accounting for 4.68%. Among them，92 adverse drug reactions （ADRs） occurred，including 73 cases of gastrointestinal system disorders，10 cases of metabolic and nutritional disorders，eight cases of skin and subcutaneous tissue diseases，two cases of vascular and lymphatic disorders，and one case of systemic diseases and various reactions at the administration site. The manifestations of ADRs were mainly diarrhea，stool discoloration，and vomiting，and no serious ADRs occurred. The results of multi-factor analysis indicated that special dosages （the use of FLK）［odds ratio （OR） of 2.642， 95% confidence interval （CI） of 1.105-6.323］，combined administration： spleen aminopeptide （OR of 4.978， 95%CI of 1.200-20.655），and reason for combined administration： anti-infection （OR of 1.814， 95%CI of 1.071-3.075） were the risk factors for ADRs caused by FLK. Conclusion92 ADRs occurred among 3 035 juveniles using FLK. The incidence of ADRs caused by FLK was 3.03%，and the severity was mainly mild or moderate. Generally，the prognosis was favorable after symptomatic treatment such as drug withdrawal or dosage reduction，suggesting that FLK has good clinical safety.

Objective:To analyze the correlation between mental health status and metabolic syndrome (MetS) in health checkup people.Methods:It was a cross-sectional study, 2 920 participants who received health checkup in the Health Examination Center of Peking University Third Hospital from January 2019 to December 2023 were selected using cluster sampling method. Their general information, physical examination, biochemical indicators, body composition, and self-evaluation scores on the Symptom Checklist-90 (SCL-90) were collected. According to the inclusion and exclusion criteria, a total of 2 813 study subjects were included, and divided into the MetS group and the non-MetS group based on whether they had MetS. The differences in general demographic information, body composition, blood biochemistry, and SCL-90 scores between the two groups were compared. Binary Logistic regression analysis was used to explore the correlation between mental health status and MetS.Results:Of the 2 813 subjects included, 1 576 were males (56.0%) and 1 237 were females (44.0%), with an average age of (41.7±11.0) years, the MetS group had 586 cases (20.8%) and the non-MetS group had 2 227 cases (79.2%). The MetS group had higher levels of age, body mass index, waist circumference, systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, total cholesterol, triglycerides, low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), fasting blood glucose, glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA 1c), free thyroxine(FT4), total triiodothyronine (TT3), free triiodothyronine (FT3), waist-to-hip ratio, visceral fat area, body fat percentage, uric acid/creatinine, homocysteine (Hcy), aspartate aminotransferases (AST), and alanine transaminase (ALT) levels, as well as higher scores for somatization, hostility, paranoia, and other factor compared to the non-MetS group (all P<0.05), while high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) and estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) levels were lower than those in the non-MetS group (all P<0.05). The proportion of male, and the positive rates of SCL-90, somatization, interpersonal sensitivity, hostility, paranoia and other factor in the MetS group were higher than those in the non-MetS group (all P<0.05). Multifactorial analysis showed that individuals with a positive SCL-90 assessment had a 1.34 times higher risk of MetS than those with a negative assessment ( OR=1.34, 95% CI: 1.06-1.68; P=0.014). Among them, individuals with positive somatization ( OR=2.02, 95% CI: 1.25-3.28; P=0.004) and hostility ( OR=1.61, 95% CI: 1.02-2.56; P=0.042) had increased risk of MetS. Conclusion:Poor mental health status increases the risk of MetS.

Objective:To investigate the plasma level of interleukin(IL)-37 and assess its regulatory effects on monocyte activity in type 1 diabetes mellitus(T1DM) patients.Methods:This prospective study included 57 T1DM patients and 21 healthy controls who were continuously enrolled from December 2022 to January 2024 at Xinxiang Central Hospital. Plasma and peripheral blood mononuclear cells were isolated. IL-37 and soluble interleukin 1 receptor 8(IL-1R8) levels were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA). Levels of IL-37 receptor subunits in monocytes were analyzed via flow cytometry. Purified monocytes were stimulated with recombinant IL-37 and co-cultured with a human pancreatic β-cell line to assess cytotoxicity, measured by target cell death and cytokine levels. Additionally, monocytes were co-cultured with autologous CD4 + T cells to evaluate antigen presentation by measuring interferon-γ(IFN-γ) and IL-17A secretion. Results:Plasma IL-37 level and IL-37 receptor subunit expression in monocytes were significantly lower in T1DM patients compared to controls(both P<0.001). However, there was no significant difference in soluble IL-1R8 levels between the groups( P=0.457). Monocytes from T1DM patients exhibited increased cytotoxicity, as indicated by higher target cell death and elevated levels of granzyme A, granzyme B, granzyme H, IL-1β, IL-6, and tumor necrosis factor-α( P<0.05). Additionally, monocyte-induced secretion of IFN-γ and IL-17A by CD4 + T cells was elevated in T1DM patients(all P<0.05). Stimulation of T1DM monocytes with recombinant IL-37 reduced target cell death and decreased granzyme B secretion compared to unstimulated monocytes(both P<0.05). However, IL-37 stimulation had no significant effect on other cytokine levels or monocyte-induced IFN-γ and IL-17A secretion( P>0.05). Conclusions:Monocytes exhibit enhanced cytotoxicity and antigen-presenting capacity in T1DM patients. IL-37 reduces monocyte cytotoxicity by inhibiting granzyme B secretion, but does not affect antigen presenting function in T1DM.
