Objective: To analyze the trends of the frequency of meat, egg, and milk consumption among rural primary and junior high school students in central and western China covered by the Nutrition Improvement Program for Rural Compulsory Education Students (NIPRCES) from 2015 to 2023, so as to provide basis for formulating more targeted nutrition intervention policies and health education strategies. Methods: Using data from six rounds of monitoring and evaluation (2015-2021 and 2023), the study included 323 870 students from grade 3 to 9 across 22 provinces (autonomous regions and municipalities) in central and western China. The consumption frequencies of meat, egg, and milk over the past week were collected via questionnaires. The Cochran-Armitage trend test was used to analyze temporal trends, and multivariable Logistic regression models were employed to analyze factors associated with the frequency of meat, egg and milk consumption and to test for interaction effects between the year and gender, region, and grade level. Results: From 2015 to 2023, the proportion of students consuming meat, egg, and milk ≥1 time/day increased from 23.20 %, 10.71%, and 0.74% to 35.53%, 22.09%, and 26.63%, respectively. Trend tests indicated a significant upward trend for the daily intake of all three food categories for meat, egg and milk over the years ( Z =67.18, 64.90, 93.14, all P <0.01). Multivariable Logistic regression analysis showed that the daily meat intake was lower in the central region than in the western region ( OR=0.77, 95%CI =0.76-0.78), whereas the daily intake of eggs ( OR=1.19, 95%CI =1.17-1.22) and milk ( OR= 1.27 , 95%CI =1.24-1.29) was higher in the central region (all P <0.05). Compared with grade 3-4 students, junior high school students had lower daily intake of meat, eggs, and milk≥1 time/day ( OR =0.95, 0.77, 0.77, all P <0.05), with a declining trend as grade increased. Girls also had lower daily intake of meat, eggs, and milk ≥1 time/day than boys ( OR =0.95，0.93，0.91, all P < 0.05). Significant interactions were observed between year and region, as well as between year and grade (all P <0.05). Conclusion From 2015 to 2023, the NIPRCES improved the intake level of among rural students, but the situation of relatively insufficient intake of egg and milk among females, junior high school students and those in the western region still exists.

OBJECTIVE To observe the effects of Modified shaoyao gancao decoction on intestinal transit function， intestinal flora and the contents of metabolites [γ aminobutyric acid （GABA） and 5-hydroxytryptamine （5-HT）] in slow transit constipation （STC） rats. METHODS SD rats were randomly divided into blank group （10 rats） and modeling group （30 rats）， with half male and half female. The STC model was established by intragastric administration of Compound diphenoxylate tablets in the modeling group. The successfully modeled rats were randomly divided into model group， Modified shaoyao gancao decoction group [56 g/（kg·d）， calculated by crude drug] and positive control group [lactulose 2.09 g/（kg·d）]， with 10 rats in each group. Each administration group was given relevant medicine intragastrically， the blank group and model group received an equivalent volume of normal saline， once a day， for 14 consecutive days. During the experiment， the general situation of rats was observed in each group. After the last medication， the body weight was measured， and the Bristol score was used to evaluate the fecal characteristics. The fecal moisture content， intestinal propulsion rate， and the contents of GABA and 5-HT in intestinal content were detected； the diversity of intestinal flora in intestinal contents was investigated， and the correlation between the contents of GABA， 5-HT and relative abundance of microbiota was analyzed. RESULTS Compared with the model group， general conditions such as small body shape， sparse and rough fur， and slow movement were all improved in Modified shaoyao gancao decoction body weight， Bristol score， fecal moisture content，intestinal propulsion rate， 5-HT content， Chao1 index and Shannon index were increased significantly， while GABA content and Simpson index were decreased significantly （P＜0.05）. The intestinal flora of rats in the Modified shaoyao gancao decoction group could be classified as the same as the blank group， but was far from the model group； the relative abundances of Desulfobacterota， Firmicutes and Bacteroidota in this group showed a tendency of pull back， but the differences were not statistically significant compared to model group （P＞0.05）. Desulfobacterota was an intergroup differential factor （P＜0.05）. The content of GABA was negatively correlated with the relative abundance of Bacteroidota， Cyanobacteria， Patescibacteria and Actinobacteriota （P＜0.05）. The content of 5-HT was positively correlated with the relative abundance of Campilobacterota （P＜0.05）. CONCLUSIONS Modified shaoyao gancao decoction can improve the fecal properties and intestinal motility of STC rats. Its mechanism may be related to improving intestinal flora and then affecting the contents of GABA and 5-HT in intestinal contents. In addition， the contents of GABA and 5-HT may be significantly correlated with the relative abundance of specific bacterial phyla such as Bacteroidota and Campilobacterota.

OBJECTIVE To explore the mechanism of Shaoyao gancao decoction in improving intestinal motility in rats with slow transit constipation （STC） by regulating acid-sensitive ion channel 3 （ASIC3）/extracellular signal-regulated kinase （ERK） signaling pathway. METHODS SD rats were used to construct an STC model by gavage with compound diphenoxylate. The successfully modeled rats were randomly divided into model group， Shaoyao gancao decoction group （1.5 g/mL）， lactulose group （208.4 mg/mL， positive control）， and combined inhibition group （Shaoyao gancao decoction 1.5 g/mL+amiloride hydrochloride 20 μg/kg）， with 12 rats in each group. Additionally， 12 healthy rats were selected as the blank group. They were given relevant medicine once a day and continuously intervened for 14 days. After intervention， the intestinal propulsion function and visceral sensitivity of the model rats were detected. The expression of ASIC3 in the colon tissue of rats was observed by immunohistochemical staining. mRNA expressions of ASIC3， ERK1 and ERK2 as well as protein expressions of ASIC3， ERK1/2 and phosphorylated ERK1/2 （p-ERK1/2） in colon tissue of rats were detected； the ultrastructural changes of the enteric nervous system （ENS） -interstitial cell of Cajal （ICC）-smooth muscle cell （SMC） network in the rat colon were observed under electron microscopy. RESULTS Compared with the model group， the intestinal propulsion rate of the Shaoyao gancao decoction group was significantly increased， while the visceral pain threshold was significantly decreased. The proportion of the positive area of ASIC3 in the colonic tissue was significantly increased. The relative mRNA expression levels of ERK1， ERK2， and ASIC3， as well as the relative protein expression levels of p-ERK1/2 and ASIC3， and the p-ERK1/2 to ERK1/2 in the colonic tissue， were all significantly increased （P＜0.05 or P＜0.01）. Additionally， there was marked repair of the morphological structure of ICC and SMC， with closer gap junctions observed. Compared with the Shaoyao gancao decoction group， the combined inhibition group exhibited a diminished improvement in intestinal motility of rats， with statistically significant differences in the levels of some indicators （P＜0.05 or P＜0.01）； the repairing of the morphological structure of ICC and SMC was notably attenuated. CONCLUSIONS Shaoyao gancao decoction can effectively improve the intestinal transmission function and promote intestinal repair in STC rats， and its mechanism may be related to regulating the balance of the ENS-ICC-SMC network mediated by the ASIC3/ERK signaling pathway， thus promoting intestinal motility and reducing visceral sensitivity.

Objective To investigate the predictive ability of cyst fluid characteristics for malignant intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms (IPMNs). Methods We prospectively collected fresh cyst fluid from patients undergoing pancreatic resection at the Department of Hepatobiliary Pancreatic Spleen Surgery, Changhai Hospital, Shanghai, from September 2023 to December 2024, who were ultimately pathologically confirmed with IPMN. We assessed the characteristics of cyst fluid, including viscosity, clarity, and color, and explored its predictive performance for benign or malignant. Results A total of 40 patients with IPMN were included. The sensitivity of the string sign （+） for diagnosing high-grade dysplasia/ invasive carcinoma （HGD/IC） was 90.9%, specificity was 92.9%, and accuracy was 76.0%. The cyst fluid of intestinal-type IPMN often exhibited a gelatinous consistency, and there was no significant difference in the distribution of gelatinous consistency between the HGD/IC group and the low-grade dysplasia （LGD） group. There were no significant differences in CEA, glucose, and amylase levels in the cyst fluid between the HGD/IC group and the LGD group. Conclusions The characteristics of pancreatic cyst fluid, especially viscosity, can effectively predict the benign or malignant nature of IPMN.

Primary liver cancer is one of the most common causes of cancer-related deaths in China,with hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC)accounting for 75%-85%.Approximately 70%of HCC patients are in the advanced stage at the time of diagnosis and miss the opportunity for radical surgery,leading to a poor prognosis.Yttrium-90 microsphere selective internal radiation therapy(90Y-SIRT),an emerging therapeutic modality,delivers radioactive microspheres via the hepatic artery to target tumors and uses beta radiation for localized tumor ablation.Compared to conventional transarterial chemoembolization and pharmacotherapy,90Y-SIRT shows the advan-tages of significant clinical benefits,good safety profiles,and broad applicability across diverse patient populations.This article re-views the advances in the application of 90Y-SIRT in HCC treatment.

Primary liver cancer is a malignant tumor with high incidence and mortality rates worldwide,and the early diagnosis of pri-mary liver cancer and the optimization of precise treatment strategies have become critical issues in the healthcare field.Due to the in-sufficient capabilities for molecular characterization,it is increasingly difficult for traditional imaging techniques to meet clinical needs in the era of precision medicine.Multimodal molecular imaging technology integrates the advantages of imaging modalities such as ul-trasound imaging,magnetic resonance imaging,and optical imaging,thereby achieving synergistic enhancement between molecular bio-logical information of liver cancer and precise anatomical localization and demonstrating a significant value in the diagnosis and treat-ment of liver cancer.This article reviews the advances in the application of multimodal molecular imaging in the early diagnosis,pre-cise treatment,and therapeutic efficacy monitoring of liver cancer.

Drug delivery system (DDS) holds promise in reducing off-target effects of antitumor drugs. The carriers of antitumor drug DDS mainly include nanoparticles, small molecules, nucleic acids, peptides, antibodies and cells, which carry antitumor drugs through linker to deliver the drugs to specific tumor tissues and cells. DDS will propel progress in the field of cancer precision medicine.

Tumor-related death is often associated with tumor metastasis. Metastasis process includes the acquisition of dissemination traits of tumor cells, dormancy awakening, and distant growth. Changing dissemination traits of cancer cells, maintaining and killing dormant tumor cells, editing pre-metastatic microenvironment, and reprogramming hallmarks of cancer will be key to block tumor metastasis. Bevacizumab, denosumab and cilengitide have been approved for clinical therapies. Tumor screening based on blood tests combined with artificial intelligence will provide new targeted metastasis strategies for clinical treatment.
