Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder （ADHD） is often accompanied by tic disorder. The core pathogenesis is considered to be ministerial fire scorching yin and internal stirring of deficient wind， which leads to disharmony between the body and spirit， resulting in clinical manifestations. The treatment principles emphasize nourishing yin fluids， calming ministerial fire， and extinguishing endogenous wind （内风）. The method of nourishing yin fluids is applied throughout the entire treatment process， commonly using ingredients such as Shudihuang （Rehmanniae Radix Praeparata）， Shanzhuyu （Corni Fructus）， Gouqizi （Lycii Fructus）， Wuweizi （Schisandrae Chinensis Fructus）， and Tusizi （Cuscutae Semen）. These are combined with approaches to harmonize the zang-fu organs， primarily including extinguishing liver wind， clearing heart fire， nourishing kidney water， and strengthening spleen earth， thereby stabilizing ministerial fire and extinguishing endogenous wind. Additionally， emotional regulation and smoothing emotional constraint are essential to improve clinical symptoms in children with ADHD comorbid with tic disorder.

BackgroundThe middle school stage represents a crucial period for the development of borderline personality features. Negative parenting styles and emotional regulation strategies are associated with the formation of borderline personality features. However， the moderating role of emotional regulation strategies between negative parenting styles and borderline personality features among middle school students remains unclear. ObjectiveTo explore the moderating influence of emotional regulation strategies in the relationship between negative parenting styles and borderline personality features among middle school students， and to provide references for the intervention of borderline personality features. MethodsIn October 2023， a total of 5 965 middle school students from three middle schools in Nanning， Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region were selected by cluster sampling， and assessed by the Borderline Personality Features Scale for Children （BPFS-C）， the Egna Minnen Barndoms Uppfostran （EMBU）， and the Emotion Regulation Questionnaire-Chinese Revised Version （ERQ-CRV）. Pearson correlation analysis was used to test the correlation between the scores of each scale， and the model 1 of the Process macro program was used to conduct the moderating effect test. ResultsA total of 5 572 middle school students （93.41%） completed this study， and 1 388 of them （24.91%） were identified as having high borderline personality features. The BPFS-C score of middle school students was positively correlated with the score of the negative parenting style dimension of EMBU （r=0.367， P<0.01）， negatively correlated with the score of the cognitive reappraisal dimension of ERQ-CRV （r=-0.168， P<0.01）， and positively correlated with the score of the expression inhibition dimension of ERQ-CRV （r=0.344， P<0.01）. Cognitive reappraisal played a negative moderating effect between negative parenting styles and borderline personality features （β=-0.072， 95% CI： -0.104–-0.041， P<0.01）， while expressive suppression played a positive moderating effect （β=0.076， 95% CI： 0.055–0.097， P<0.01）. ConclusionCognitive reappraisal strategy may help mitigate the negative influence of negative parenting styles on middle school students' borderline personality features， while expressive suppression may exacerbate the harm of negative parenting styles to the borderline personality features of middle school students.

The core pathogenesis of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder （ADHD） lies in deficiency， stasis and stagnation. Deficiency arises from kidney essence depletion and spleen dysfunction in transportation and transformation， leading to inadequate nourishment of the marrow sea. Stasis caused by qi deficiency leads to obstruction in channels and collaterals， resulting in obstructed marrow transport. Stagnation is associated with the excess of the five minds transforming into fire， which scorches the brain orifices and leads to loss of control over marrow utilisation. Based on this， a "supplementation-unblocking-regulation" therapeutic approach is proposed. For deficiency， the focus is on supplementing kidney and fortifying spleen， and replenishing the marrow sea. For stasis， the priority is to unblock and open the orifices， and clear the marrow channels. For stagnation， the core is to clear fire and contain the mind， regulate and restore vital activity. In clinical practice， it is necessary to identify the primary and secondary pathogenic mechanisms and apply dynamic， combined treatment， integrating Chinese herbal medicine， acupuncture， and guiding exercises throughout the process， aiming to provide a reference for the diagnosis and treatment of ADHD with traditional Chinese medical.

Objective: To analyze the structural changes in whole blood and apheresis platelet donations in Chinese Society of Blood Transfusion (CSBT) sentinel units from 2021 to 2025, and to provide evidence for donor recruitment and blood service management. Methods: Aggregated data reported by sentinel sites were collected and stratified according to six indicators: age, sex, donation history, donation volume, donation site, and organization mode. Pearson χ test, Cramer′V coefficient, Cochran-Armitage trend test and simple linear regression were adopted for analysis. Results: A total of 16 256 973 whole blood donations and 1 576 546 apheresis platelet donations were included. Among whole-blood donations, the proportion of donors aged 18-22 years decreased from 27.30% to 10.60%. The proportion of male donors increased from 58.81% to 63.13%; the proportion of people aged 30 and above increased from 58.40% to 75.30%; the proportion of fixed locations rose from 28.37% to 36.57%; the proportion of social groups increased from 21.69% to 39.69%. The 400-mL donations decreased from 62.12% to 53.46%, while individually initiated voluntary donations remained above 50%. Apheresis platelet donations were predominantly from males, individuals aged 30-39 years, and repeat donors; 2-treatment-unit apheresis platelet donations increased from 67.19% to 74.93%, and individually initiated donations accounted for 92.97%-96.02%. Statistically significant overall annual compositional differences were observed for all six indicators (all P<0.001), whereas linear trends for some sub-categories were not statistically significant. Conclusion: In the participating CSBT sentinel units, among whole blood donations, the proportions of donors aged 18-22 years, university-organized group donations, and donations at blood mobiles decreased, whereas the proportions of organizational group donations and donations at fixed venues increased. The apheresis platelet donation cohort is relatively mature and is evolving toward a high-efficiency donation model. Individual voluntary donation remains the primary organization mode for both donation types. Strategies such as youth donor recruitment, optimized layout of fixed donation sites, and retention of repeat donors should be strengthened to improve the resilience of blood supply.

ObjectiveTo investigate the effect and mechanism of cordycepin in inhibiting fat infiltration after rotator cuff injuries in rats by regulating the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway， providing a theoretical basis for clinical treatment of rotator cuff injuries. MethodsFifty SPF-grade female SD rats were used in this study， with 10 randomly selected as the blank group. A rotator cuff injury repair model was established by supraspinatus tendon and suprascapular nerve compression. The successfully modeled rats were randomized into model and low-dose （20 mg·kg^-1）， medium-dose （40 mg·kg^-1）， and high-dose （80 mg·kg^-1） cordycepin groups. After 6 weeks of treatment， the gait analysis was performed to assess the limb function in rats. Oil red O staining and Masson staining were employed to observe pathological changes in the muscle tissue. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay （ELISA） was used to measure the levels of interleukin-1β （IL-1β）， interleukin-6 （IL-6）， and tumor necrosis factor-α （TNF-α） in the serum. Immunohistochemistry （IHC） was employed to detect the expression of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ （PPARγ） and CCAAT/enhancer-binding protein α （C/EBPα）， which are markers of adipogenesis. Real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction （Real-time PCR） and Western blot were employed to determine the mRNA and protein levels， respectively， of Wnt3a， Wnt10b， and β-catenin. ResultsCompared with the blank group， the model group showed decreases in stride length and paw print area （P<0.01）， an increase in ratio of wet muscle mass reduction and a decrease in muscle fiber cross-sectional area （P<0.05）， and decreased ratios of fat infiltration area and collagen fiber area （P<0.01）. Additionally， the model group showed elevated levels of IL-1β， IL-6， and TNF-α （P<0.05）， up-regulated protein levels of PPARγ and C/EBPα （P<0.01）， and down-regulated mRNA and protein levels of Wnt3a， Wnt10b， and β-catenin （P<0.05， P<0.01）. Compared with the model group， the low-， medium-， and high-dose cordycepin groups showed increases in stride length and paw print area （P<0.01）， a decrease in ratio of wet muscle mass reduction and an increase in muscle fiber cross-sectional area （P<0.05）， and increases in ratios of fat infiltration area and collagen fiber area （P<0.05， P<0.01）. In addition， cordycepin lowered the serum levels of IL-1β， IL-6， and TNF-α （P<0.05， P<0.01）， down-regulated the protein levels of PPARγ and C/EBPα （P<0.01）， and up-regulated the mRNA and protein levels of Wnt3a， Wnt10b， and β-catenin （P<0.05， P<0.01）. ConclusionCordycepin can improve the limb function， alleviate rotator cuff muscle atrophy， fat infiltration， and fibrosis， and inhibit inflammation in rats by regulating the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway.

Objective To establish primary breast cancer cell lines from patient tissues and offer a new cancer cell model for basic research.Methods Breast cancer biopsy tissues were digested with typeⅡcollagenase and cultured in BCMI medium.When the cells proliferated rapidly,the medium was switched to DMEM.STR genotyping was per-formed to identify specific genetic markers of the four primary breast cancer cell lines.Colony expansion assays and sphere formation assays were conducted to analyze its tumorigenicity.Real-time PCR and Western blot experiments were used to analyze the expression of the epithelial-mesenchymal transition(EMT)molecule markers.Migration and invasion assays were performed to assess the metastatic potential of the primary breast cancer cells.Results We es?tablished four primary breast cancer cell lines:BC25#,BC51#,BC56#,and BC57#.These cell lines were cultured in DMEM medium,passaged multiple times and tagged with details about their clinical past.STR genotyping identified specific genetic markers for each of the four primary breast cancer cell lines.Clonogenic and sphere formation assays revealed that the four lines have a stronger tumor?forming capability compared to the classic breast cancer cell line T?47D.Real?time PCR and Western blot experiments showed that,compared to T?47D,the four primary breast cancer cell lines have decreased E?cadherin expression and increased vimentin expression.Migration and invasion assays indicated that BC25#had a higher metastatic potential than the traditional breast cancer cell line T?47D.Conclusions Four primary breast cancer cell lines,BC25#,BC51#,BC56#and BC57#are successfully estab?lished,which may act as new cancer cell model for laboratory research of breast cancer.

Purpose To investigate the value of radiomics nomogram for the prediction of p53 abnormal in patient with endometrial carcinoma based on intratumoral and peritumoral MRI.Materials and Methods A total of 145 female patients were pathologically confirmed endometrial carcinoma who underwent pelvic MRI before treatment in Baoding First Central Hospital from January 2020 to April 2024,including 96 patients with p53 wild type and 49 with p53 abnormal.Radiomics features were extracted from both intratumoral and peritumoral regions(2 mm)in diffusion weighted imaging and equilibrium phase of dynamic contrast enhanced MRI,which were selected using least absolute shrinkage and selection operator.Three machine learning algorithms of random forest,K-nearest neighbors and extra trees were conducted to develop the intratumoral,peritumoral and intratumoral combined peritumoral radiomics models.Multivariate Logistic regression was used to constitute the clinical model and nomogram.The performance of these models was evaluated using receiver operating characteristic curve,decision curve analysis and calibration curve.Results The K-nearest neighbors model of the intratumoral combined peritumoral regions performed the best in all radiomics models,the area under the curve were 0.921 and 0.773 in the training cohorts and test cohorts.The radiomics nomogram,which was composed of age,apparent diffusion coefficient and radiomics signatures,achieved the best performance with area under the curve of 0.970 and 0.777 in the training cohorts and test cohorts,respectively.Calibration curve analysis and decision curve analysis demonstrated favorable calibration and clinical utility of the nomogram model.Conclusion The nomogram based on intratumoral and peritumoral MRI radiomics yields a favorable diagnostic value for predicting p53 abnormal in patient with endometrial carcinoma.

Objective:To study the influence of methyltransferases like 3(METTL3)on the radiosensitivity of oral squamous cell carcinoma cells(OSCCs).Methods:The apoptosis level of OSCCs CAL27,SCC9 and SCC15 treated with X-ray radiation doses of 2,4 and 8 Gy respectively was compared by flow cytometry,the expression of methylated gene RNA and protein in the cells were examined by qRT-PCR and Western blot.m6A in the cells was quantified by LC/LC-MS method.qRT-PCR and Western blot were used to investigate the expression of methylated gene RNA and protein in the cells.Flow cytometry was used to examine the cell apoptosis level of CAL27 and SCC15 cells treated with METTL3 overexpression and knockdown respectively.The clone forma-tion of CAL27 and SCC15 cells after knockdown and overexpression of target genes followed by radiation treatment was observed by clonogenic assays.Results:The apoptosis rate of all the cell lines increased with the increase dose of radiation at each dose,CAL27 cells showed the highest and SCC15 showed the lowerst apoptosis rate.The RNA and protein expression levels of METTL3 in CAL27 were significantly lower than those of SCC15.m6A quantification showed that the methylation modification in CAL27 cells was lower than that in SCC15.The expression of METTL3 was increased in CAL27 and SCC15 cells after radiation treatment.Knockdown of METTL3 increaced the apoptosis rate and decreased the clonogenesity,overession of METTL3 the decreaced the ap optosis rate and increased the clonogenecity of the cells.Conclusion:Regulation of METTL3 can affect the radiotherapy sensitivity of OSCCs,METTL3 may become a new target for radiosensitization of OSCCs.

OBJECTIVE: To explore the clinical phenotype and genetic characteristics of a child with hereditary Spastic paraplegia type 52 (SPG52) due to variant of AP4S1 gene. METHODS: A child diagnosed with SPG52 at the Department of Pediatrics of the First Affiliated Hospital of Anhui Medical University in May 2010 was selected as the study subject. Whole-exome sequencing (WES) was carried out for the child and his parents. Candidate variants were confirmed by Sanger sequencing. Pathogenicity of the candidate variant was interpreted according to the guidelines from the American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics (ACMG). The study protocol was approved by the Ethics Committee of the Hospital (Ethics No.: PJ2024-04-56). RESULTS: The child had presented with global developmental delay from infancy, and featured progressive lower limb spasticity, contractures, talipes equinovarus, and muscle weakness, but with no significant facial dysmorphism. His first febrile seizure occurred before one year of age, followed by several afebrile seizures. The seizures had remitted after 3 to 4 years of antiepileptic therapy, and electroencephalography was normal. However, he had severe intellectual disability, and MRI revealed reduced white matter. WES identified a homozygous AP4S1 c.289C>T (p.Arg97*) variant in the child, for which both of his parents were heterozygous carriers. The variant was rated as pathogenic based on the ACMG guidelines. Literature review has identified 8 publications on SPG52, involving 18 patients from 12 pedigrees. Combined with our case, 14 had carried homozygous variants of the AP4S1 gene, 3 had compound heterozygous variants, and 2 had heterozygous variants, involving 12 distinct variant sites. The cohort included 7 males and 12 females. All patients exhibited progressive lower limb spasticity and weakness as the primary feature, with certain loss of independent ambulation. Most patients had intellectual disability, some had distinctive facial features, though febrile seizures or epilepsy were common. Electroencephalography often showed increased slow-wave activity. Brain MRI frequently demonstrated ventriculomegaly, a thin corpus callosum, and reduced white matter. CONCLUSION The homozygous c.289C>T (p.Arg97*) variant of the AP4S1 gene probably underlay the pathogenesis of SPG52 in this child. Above discovery has expanded the mutational spectrum of AP4S1 and provided valuable insights for the genetic diagnosis, counseling, and clinical management of SPG52.
