Objective: To investigate the prevalence of overweight and obesity among children and adolescents in Yangzhou City, and its association with screen behaviors, so as to provide scientific evidence for weight management among students. Methods: In May 2025, an electronic questionnaire survey was conducted among children and adolescents in Yangzhou City. A total of 3 722 participants were selected from grades 4 to 12 in 18 primary and secondary schools (108 classes) by using stratified cluster random sampling. The Chi square test was used to compare the differences in the detection rates of overweight and obesity among children and adolescents with 5 types of screen behaviors (watching TV, playing electronic games, scrolling short videos, screen based learning, electronic socializing) in different time groups each day (never, >0~<2 h, ≥2 h). Multivariate Logistic regression analysis was performed to examine the associations of five types of screen behaviors, presence of electronic devices in the bedroom, and screen use during meals on the weight status of children and adolescents. Results: The prevalence of overweight and obesity among children and adolescents was 37.3%. For all five types of screen behaviors, the differences in the distribution of overweight and obesity detection rates among children and adolescents across the three time spent categories were statistically significant ( χ 2=30.76- 70.78 , all P <0.01). After adjusting for confounding factors, multivariate Logistic regression analysis revealed that frequent or always using screens during meals( OR =1.63, 95％ CI =1.14~2.31), playing video games ( OR =1.28, 95% CI =1.11-1.48), browsing short videos ( OR =1.29, 95％ CI=1.09-1.54), and screen based learning ( OR =1.26, 95％ CI =1.10-1.44) were significantly associated with overweight and obesity among children and adolescents (all P <0.05). Conclusions Excessive screen use is positively correlated with the incidence of overweight and obesity in children and adolescents. Targeted interventions on screen behaviors among children and adolescents are therefore warranted.

Objective To investigate the species of sandflies and the prevalence of Leishmania infections in sandflies from selected areas of northern and northwestern China, so as to provide insights into identification of leishmaniasis vectors and assessment of epidemiological trends of leishmaniasis in China. Methods Sandfly samples were collected from Mentougou District of Beijing Municipality, Xiangning County in Linfen City of Shanxi Province, Ejin Banner in Alxa League of Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region, and Payzawat County of Karamay District of Karamay City, Gaochang District of Turpan City in Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region from July 2023 to July 2024. Approximately 100 intact female sandfly samples were randomly selected from each site and the species of sandflies was identified according to morphological characteristics and molecular assays. Female sandflies originating from the same habitat were grouped into pools of 10 individuals. Leishmania infection was detected using polymerase chain reaction (PCR) assay targeting the internal transcribed spacer 1 (ITS-1) gene, and the prevalence of Leishmania infection was calculated in sandflies from different sampling sites using the minimum infection rate (MIR) method. In addition, positive amplicons were sequenced and subjected to phylogenetic analysis. Results A total of 6 155 sandflies were collected from different environments at sampling sites across the six aforementioned regions from July 2023 to July 2024. Phlebotomus chinensis (96.00%) was the dominant sandfly species in Mentougou District, Beijing Municipality, with a small proportion of Ph. sergenti (4.00%), and only Ph. chinensis was found in Xiangning County, Linfen City, Shanxi Province. Ph. wui was the only sandfly species detected in Ejin Banner, Alxa League, Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region, and Payzawat County, Kashgar City, Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region, and Ph. caucasicus (97.70%) was the dominant sandfly species in Karamay District, Karamay City, Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region, with a small proportion of Ph. wui (2.30%), while Ph. alexandri was the only species in Gaochang District, Turpan City, Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region. A total of 40, 60, 34, 18, 18, and 22 pools of sandfly samples were tested from Mentougou District in Beijing Municipality, Xiangning County in Linfen City of Shanxi Province, Ejin Banner in Alxa League of Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region, Payzawat County in Kashgar City, Karamay District in Karamay City, and Gaochang District in Turpan City of Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region, respectively. L. infantum was detected in Ph. chinensis samples from Mentougou District in Beijing Municipality, and Xiangning County of Linfen City in Shanxi Province, with MIR of 0.25% to 1.00%, and L. donovani was detected in Ph. wui from Ejin Banner in Alxa League of Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region, and Payzawat County in Kashgar City of Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region, with MIR of 0.56% to 0.88%; however, no Leishmania infection was detected in Ph. caucasicus from Karamay District in Karamay City or Ph. alexandri from Gaochang District in Turpan City of Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region. Phylogenetic analysis showed that the Leishmania ITS-1 gene sequences obtained from Mentougou District in Beijing Municipality and Xiangning County in Linfen City of Shanxi Province were clustered into the same clade with the reference sequences of L. infantum ITS-1 gene, while the Leishmania ITS-1 gene sequences obtained from Ejin Banner in Alxa League of Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region and Payzawat County in Kashgar City of Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region were clustered into the same clade with the reference sequences of L. donovani ITS-1 gene. Conclusions There are variations in sandfly species in selected areas of northern and northwestern China, and variations in the species of Leishmania infecting sandflies. Improved surveillance of sandfly vectors and targeted control strategies with adaptations to geographical features and leishmaniasis vectors are recommended.

OBJECTIVE To establish a Chinese drug-related problem （DRP） classification system applicable to pharmacist-led pharmaceutical care in China， providing pharmacists with an effective and practical tool for pharmaceutical care. METHODS A multi-stage process was employed to construct the DRP classification system， including literature review and analysis， comparison of existing classification systems， refinement of classification items and framework development， two rounds of standard case validation， expert discussion， and system revision. The Fleiss′ kappa test was used to calculate the consistency coefficient κ， assessing the reliability of pharmacists participating in evaluating the classification system. An electronic questionnaire comprising six items was employed to evaluate the system’s applicability. RESULTS The constructed Chinese DRP classification system comprised six sections [problem（including potential problems）， DRP evaluation， cause （including possible causes of potential problems）， intervention， acceptance of intervention and DRP status]， with 24 primary codes and 96 secondary codes. In the first round of case validation， κ values exceeded 0.4 for all sections except “intervention” and “DRP status”. In the second round， κ values exceeded 0.4 for all sections. In the applicability evaluation of the classification system， positive ratings （“strongly agree” or “agree”） exceeded 85% for all items. Specifically， positive ratings for“the classification system can provide appropriate category selection”，“ the classification system is comprehensive”，“ the classification system is convenient to use” and “the classification system is highly satisfactory” exceeded 92%. CONCLUSIONS The Chinese DRP classification system developed demonstrates both high reliability and applicability， providing an effective and practical classification tool for pharmacists in China to conduct pharmaceutical care.

Chronic post-surgical pain (CPSP) is a common long-term complication following lung surgery. Its high incidence significantly impacts patients’ quality of life and functional recovery, and imposes a substantial socioeconomic burden. This consensus aims to systematically establish a standardized integrated Chinese and Western medicine diagnostic and treatment framework for chronic post-lung surgery pain (CPLSP). Based on the latest domestic and international evidence-based medical research and multidisciplinary clinical experience, the working group comprehensively elaborates on core issues regarding CPLSP, including its definition, epidemiology, pathogenesis, clinical assessment, Western medical treatment, traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) treatment, and integrated strategies. The consensus emphasizes a patient-centered approach, adhering to the principles of multimodality, individualization, and stepwise management, highlighting the synergistic advantages of integrating Chinese and Western medicine throughout the entire perioperative management cycle encompassing "perioperative anti-inflammation, acute analgesia, and chronic rehabilitation." Through systematic literature retrieval and evidence integration, a total of 9 core recommendations were established to provide scientifically sound and clinically practical guidance.

Radiotherapy is a crucial treatment modality for head and neck tumors. However, while effectively killing tumor cells, it significantly disrupts the homeostasis of the oral microecology, which is closely associated with various complications such as radiation-induced oral mucositis. Literature review indicates that as radiotherapy doses accumulate and treatment durations extend, the richness and diversity of the oral microbiota show a declining trend, with the genus Streptococcus decreasing most markedly. In contrast, radiotherapy selectively promotes the proliferation of bacterial phyla such as Proteobacteria and Bacteroidetes, which are rich in opportunistic pathogens. Mechanistically, radiotherapy activates the nuclear factor-kappa B pathway, triggering chronic inflammation and oxidative stress, damaging the epithelial barrier, suppressing local immunity, and causing damage to organs such as the salivary glands. It can also induce systemic diseases via the oral-gut axis, forming a multi-level, interconnected pathogenic network. In terms of interventions, treatment strategies including probiotics and prebiotics have shown promising efficacy against side effects such as radiation-induced oral mucositis. Saliva-based oral microbiota transplantation is an emerging strategy that is expected to become widely utilized for restoring oral microecological balance. Existing interventions provide preliminary pathways for clinical practice, but this field still faces several key scientific questions. The association between oral microecology and systemic diseases remains largely correlative, lacking causal evidence. Furthermore, critical parameters for oral microbiota transplantation, such as donor screening criteria, transplantation protocols, and long-term safety, are not yet well-defined. Therefore, future research should focus on conducting large-scale clinical trials to establish standardized protocols and safety evaluation systems for oral microecological interventions, and explore combined treatment therapies such as probiotics, prebiotics, and microbiota transplantation to advance the development of personalized precision modulation. These will enable more effective management of radiotherapy-induced oral microecological dysbiosis and improve treatment outcomes and quality of life for patients with head and neck tumors.

ObjectiveTo investigate the epidemiological and clinical characteristics of human bocavirus (HBoV) in hospitalized children with acute lower respiratory tract infection (ALRTI) at a single-center children’s hospital in Shanghai, thereby providing evidence for the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of HBoV infection. MethodsA retrospective study was conducted on 19 537 hospitalized children with ALRTI at Shanghai Children’s Hospital from January 2021 to December 2023. Multiplex polymerase chain reaction (PCR) combined with capillary electrophoresis was used to detect HBoV and 12 other common respiratory viruses /atypical pathogens. The positive detection rate, demographic characteristics (sex, age), temporal distribution (year, season) of HBoV, as well as the clinical characteristics of severe and non-severe pneumonia were analyzed. ResultsThe overall HBoV-positive rate was 2.57% (503/19 537), with 59.44% (299/503) being single infections and 40.56% (204/503) being co-infections. The positive detection rate was significantly higher in boys than that in girls (2.78% vs 2.33%, χ²=3.88, P=0.049). The highest infection rate was observed in toddlers, followed by infants (χ²=379.57, P<0.001). The positive rate peaked in 2021 and reached its lowest point in 2023 (χ²=45.49, P<0.001), with epidemics mainly prevalent in summer and autumn. The main clinical symptoms were cough (90.06%, 453/503), fever (75.94%, 382/503), and wheezing (39.96%, 201/503). Children with severe pneumonia showed a higher incidence of wheezing compared with the non-severe group (P<0.001), while underlying diseases and co-infections had no significant association with disease severity (P>0.05). ConclusionHBoV was an important pathogen of ALRTI in children, predominantly affecting infants and toddlers, with higher susceptibility in boys and seasonal peaks in autumn and summer. The main clinical manifestations included cough, fever, and wheezing, with wheezing being more prevalent in children with severe pneumonia.

In maintaining normal function and activation processes, glycolysis, lipid metabolism, and amino acid metabolism play key roles in the energy demand of platelets. In the resting state, platelets primarily rely on glycolysis and aerobic oxidation to generate energy. Upon activation, platelets preferentially utilize glycolysis, as it can more rapidly provide the required ATP. In addition to glycolysis, platelets can also utilize glycogen and fatty acids as additional energy sources. The ATP provided by fatty acid oxidation is crucial for platelet activation. Additionally, during platelet storage, distinctive changes in energy metabolism occur. In the early stages of storage, platelets primarily rely on glycolysis and the pentose phosphate pathway (PPP) to generate energy. In the mid-storage phase, there is an increase in tricarboxylic acid cycle (TCA) metabolism. In the later stages of storage, cellular metabolism gradually declines. The regulation and flexibility of these metabolic pathways play a critical role in the survival and function of platelets in different states.

Objective:To investigate the detection rate of human herpesvirus（HHV）in children with drug-induced hypersensitivity syndrome（DIHS）and to analyze the impact of HHV on the prognosis of DIHS.Methods:This study included a retrospective analysis of clinical data from hospitalized patients diagnosed with DIHS at the Department of Dermatology at Beijing Children's Hospital between January 2009 and December 2023 who underwent peripheral blood HHV-DNA testing.The positive rates of the following HHV types were analyzed:epstein-barr virus,cytomegalovirus,HHV-6,and HHV-7.The clinical features,disease severity,course,and prognosis were then compared between HHV-positive and HHV-negative children.Results:Of the 81 patients enrolled，46（56.8%）tested positive for at least one type of HHV-DNA.The positive detection cases of epstein-barr virus，cytomegalovirus，HHV-6，and HHV-7 were 16（19.8%）cases，9（11.1%）cases，25（30.9%）cases，and 8（9.9%）cases，respectively.Compared with the HHV-negative group,the HHV-positive group exhibited significantly higher incidences of facial/limb edema,severe disease,and a RegiSCAR score ≥6( P<0.05).Furthermore,the HHV-positive group experienced significantly longer durations of fever,skin rash,liver injury,total disease course,and treatment period ( P<0.05). Conclusion:HHV-6 is the most frequently detected herpesvirus among children with DIHS.HHV positivity is significantly associated with greater disease severity and a prolonged clinical course in pediatric DIHS patients.

Objective To investigate the relationship of serum levels of GRP78 and ICTP with the severity and prognosis of coronary artery disease in elderly patients with acute coronary syndrome(ACS).Methods A total of 195 elderly ACS patients(all receiving PCI)admitted in Department of Geriatrics of Wuhan Wuchang Hospital from June 2021 to June 2023 were enrolled and served as an ACS group.They were 56 ones of mild,75 of moderate and 64 of severe conditions,and 51 patients were in poor prognosis and 144 patients in good prognosis.Another 198 healthy individu-als taking health checkup during the same period served as a control group.ELISA was used to de-tect serum levels of GRP78 and ICTP.The serum levels were compared between the ACS group and the control group,in elderly ACS patients with different severity and different prognoses,and in these patients before and after treatment.Pearson correlation analysis was used,multivariate lo-gistic regression analysis and ROC curve analysis were applied for statistical analyses.Results The serum levels of GRP78 and ICTP were significantly higher in the ACS group than the control group(P＜0.01),and in the severe patients than the moderate and mild patients(P＜0.05).When compared with the patients with good prognosis,those with poor prognosis had notably higher serum levels of GRP78 and ICTP at both before and after treatment(P＜0.01),higher cTnI level and Gensini score,and lower LVEF(P＜0.01).Pearson correlation analysis showed that in elderly ACS patients the serum levels of GRP78 and ICTP were positively correlated with cTnI and Gensini score,and negatively with LVEF(P＜0.01).GRP78 and ICTP were independent risk fac-tors for poor prognosis in elderly ACS patients(OR=2.978,95％CI:1.581-5.609,P=0.001;OR=3.012,95％CI:1.493-6.076,P=0.002).ROC curve analysis indicated that the AUC value of GRP78,ICTP and their combination in predicting poor prognosis in elderly ACS patients was 0.834,0.840,and 0.938,respectively,with a sensitivity of 80.41％,80.43％and 92.28％,and a spe-cificity of 77.15％,76.48％,and 82.64％,respectively.The combination prediction obtained better AUC value than single indicator(Z=2.611,2.516,P＜0.05).The AUC value of cTnI in predicting poor prognosis in elderly ACS patients was 0.824,with a sensitivity of 76.59％and a specificity of 77.16％.The AUC value of cTnI is not better than that of GRP78 and ICTP,and there was no sta-tistical difference(Z=0.199,0.323,P＞0.05).Conclusion High serum GRP78 and ICTP levels in elderly ACS patients are closely associated with the severity of coronary artery disease,and their combination can effectively predict poor prognosis in the patients.

AIM:To investigate the effects and underlying mechanisms of paeoniflorin(PF)on lipopolysac-charide(LPS)-induced intestinal injury in septic mice,using a combination of network pharmacology,molecular docking,and animal experiments.METHODS:Network pharmacology was used to identify key active components and therapeutic targets of Red Peony for treating sepsis.Molecular docking was performed to explore the binding affinity be-tween PF and silent information regulator 1(SIRT1).An LPS-induced mouse model of sepsis with intestinal injury was es-tablished.Samples were collected 24 h after modeling,and hematoxylin-eosin(HE)staining was performed to observe pathological changes in intestinal tissues.Chiu's scoring system was utilized to evaluate the extent of intestinal injury.En-zyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA)was employed to measure levels of inflammatory factors in intestinal tissues,including interleukin-1β(IL-1β)and IL-18,as well as indicators of intestinal permeability such as diamine oxidase(DAO)and intestinal-type fatty acid-binding protein(I-FABP),alongside serum levels of D-lactate and the aerobic gly-colysis product L-lactate.Western blot analysis was performed to assess changes in protein levels of SIRT1,M2-type pyru-vate kinase(PKM2),and NOD-like receptor protein 3(NLRP3)in intestinal tissues.RESULTS:Network pharmacolo-gy suggested that paeoniflorin,an active component of Red Peony,treats sepsis by targeting SIRT1 among other proteins.Molecular docking revealed a strong binding affinity of PF with SIRT1.In vivo experimentation revealed significant patho-logical damage in intestinal tissues in the LPS group compared to the control group as evidenced by HE staining.Chiu's score,along with levels of IL-1β,IL-18,D-lactate,and L-lactate were significantly elevated,while DAO and I-FABP levels were reduced(P＜0.05).SIRT1 expression decreased,while PKM2 and NLRP3 levels increased(P＜0.05).In contrast,the LPS+PF group displayed reduced intestinal histopathological injury,lower Chiu's scores,and decreased levels of IL-1β,IL-18,D-lactate,and L-lactate,along with increased DAO and I-FABP levels(P＜0.05).Notably,SIRT1 protein expression increased while PKM2 and NLRP3 levels decreased(P＜0.05).Furthermore,compared to the LPS+PF group,the LPS+PF+EX527 group exhibited exacerbated intestinal histopathological injury,increased Chiu's scores,as well as elevated levels of IL-1β,IL-18,D-lactate,and L-lactate,alongside reduced DAO and I-FABP levels(P＜0.05),decreased SIRT1 expression,and increased PKM2 and NLRP3 levels(P＜0.05).CONCLUSION:Paeoni-florin effectively alleviates intestinal injury in mice with sepsis,potentially through the upregulation of SIRT1 expression and the inhibition of PKM2-mediated aerobic glycolysis,which subsequently reduces the activation of NLRP3 inflamma-somes,mitigates the release of inflammatory factors,and lessens intestinal inflammation.
