Objective To preliminarily investigate the safety and efficacy of donor pancreas needle biopsy in simultaneous pancreas-kidney transplantation. Methods Clinical data of 7 cases undergoing donor pancreas biopsy were collected retrospectively. All cases underwent donor pancreas biopsy before or during simultaneous pancreas-kidney transplantation. Frozen section or paraffin sectioning techniques were used for tissue preparation, and hematoxylin-eosin and Masson staining were performed to histologically evaluate the donor pancreas. The quality of donor pancreas was comprehensively assessed by combining histological findings with the donor's clinical data. Postoperative follow-up data of 5 simultaneous pancreas-kidney transplant recipients were collected to summarize the safety of donor pancreas biopsy and the prognosis of transplant recipients. Results The 7 pancreas donors were aged 28 to 62 years, with a body mass index ranging from 20.76 to 27.68 kg/m2. Liver ultrasound indicated fatty liver in 3 cases, while pancreatic ultrasound did not reveal any significant abnormalities. Among them, biopsy was performed on 2 donors after completion of pancreatic procurement and processing, and the frozen section histology showed moderate acute pancreatitis changes (edema of acinar cells, necrosis and inflammatory cell infiltration). Combined with a serum amylase level elevated more than 3 times the upper limit of normal value, these two donor pancreases were finally discarded. The remaining 5 cases underwent biopsy immediately after pancreatic vascular anastomosis during simultaneous pancreas-kidney transplantation, and histological evaluation was performed on paraffin-embedded sections. No biopsy-related complications (such as bleeding, pancreatic fistula, etc.) occurred after transplantation. One recipient died of severe infection 2 months after transplantation, while the other 4 recipients were followed up for more than 5 years, with well-functioning transplant kidneys and pancreases. Conclusions Donor pancreas biopsy is relatively safe, and the risk of biopsy-related complications after transplantation is controllable. Comprehensive assessment of donor pancreas quality by combining histological evaluation with the donor's clinical indicators is conducive to improving the accuracy of donor pancreas selection and organ utilization.

Objective: To establish an accurate and rapid typing method for Rh typing of samples from patients who have received recent blood transfusions by utilizing the difference in osmotic fragility between fresh and old red blood cells. Methods: A lysing solution suitable for destroying old RBCs was prepared. Sixty-one samples collected in our hospital in 2024 with Rh typing of double groups were treated with the lysing solution to remove the old allogeneic red blood cells while preserving the patient's own fresh red blood cells, followed by repeat Rh typing tests. Results: For 61 samples with Rh typing in double groups, 41 were accurately detected identified through the red blood cell lysis method, yielding an identification rate of 67.21%. No significant difference was observed compared to the detection rate of the commonly used capillary centrifugation modified method (χ
=0.103, P>0.05). Conclusion: The red blood cell lysis method provides a novel and rapid experimental approach for clinical use in processing Rh-typed samples that are of double groups, thereby offering a basis for Rh compatibility blood transfusion.

Chinese Journal of School Health 2026;47(1):70-74
Objective:
To understand the impact of childhood trauma on psychological distress among upper grade elemetary school students, and to explore the mediating role of leisure activities in the relationship, so as to provide a basis for developing mental health intervention strategies.
Methods:
From August to November 2024, a combination of convenience sampling and stratified cluster random sampling was employed to recruit 1 373 fourth to sixth grade students from four primary schools in Harbin. The Childhood Trauma Questionnaire(CTQ), a self designed leisure activity scale (including active and passive leisure activities), and the Kessler Psychological Distress Scale (K10) were used to assess childhood trauma experiences, leisure activities, and levels of psychological distress. Spearman correlation analysis and linear regression analysis were conducted to explore the relationships among childhood trauma, leisure types, leisure time, and psychological distress. Based on the mediation analysis framework proposed by Hayes (Model 4), the mediating role of leisure types in the relationship between childhood trauma and psychological distress was examined.
Results:
Totally 19.1% of the upper elemetary school students exhibited psychological distress, while 30.2% had experienced childhood trauma. During school days, 64.6% of the students were reported of having leisure time concentrated between 1 and 5 hours per day, whereas 67.4% reported leisure time exceeding 5 hours per day on weekends. After controlling for potential demographic confounders such as gender, grade, ethnicity, household registration, being an only child, parents educational level, co residence, and whether parents are first time married,linear regression analysis showed that childhood trauma experience had positive predictive effect on psychological distress in upper primary school students( β =0.20, P <0.01). Leisure time showed no statistically significant association with psychological distress, both on school days ( β =-0.58 to -0.56) and weekends ( β =0.26- 0.98 )(all P >0.05). Active leisure activities were negatively associated with psychological distress ( β =-0.20), while passive leisure activities were positively associated with psychological distress ( β =0.29)(both P <0.01). Leisure type partially mediated the relationship between childhood trauma and psychological distress, accounting for 11.7% of the indirect effect.
Conclusion
Childhood trauma experiences positively predict psychological distress in upper elementary school students, and affect psychological distress through active leisure and passive leisure.

ObjectiveTo systematically analyze the differences in therapeutic efficacy between intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) and stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) for locally advanced pancreatic cancer (LAPC), and to provide a basis for treatment decision-making. MethodsPubMed, Embase, the Cochrane Library, CNKI, Wanfang Data, and VIP databases were searched for prospective or retrospective cohort studies on IMRT versus SBRT for the treatment of LAPC published up to July 31, 2025. The Newcastle-Ottawa Scale was used to assess the quality of studies, and Review Manager 5.4 was used to perform the Meta-analysis. ResultsA total of 23 studies involving 2 505 patients were included. In terms of local control rate, an analysis of 13 studies with 847 patients showed that the SBRT group had a significantly higher 1-year local control rate than the IMRT group (84.5% vs 66.7%, relative risk [RR]=1.27, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.03 — 1.56, I2=28%, P=0.026). In terms of acute toxicity, an analysis of 15 studies showed that the SBRT group had a significantly lower incidence rate of grade≥3 acute toxicity than the IMRT group (3.5% vs 11.0%, RR=0.32, 95%CI: 0.19 — 0.53, I2=18%, P<0.001). There was no significant difference in overall survival between the SBRT group and the IMRT group (16.8 months vs 16.3 months). The subgroup analysis of local control rate showed that in the 9 high-quality studies, the SBRT group had a significantly higher local control rate than the IMRT group (RR=1.25, P<0.001), and a similar result was observed in the 4 moderate-quality studies (RR=1.31, P=0.021); the stratified analysis based on technique platforms showed that the MR-guided technique group showed the largest effect size (RR=1.40, I2=10%). The sensitivity analysis showed that the RR value ranged from 1.21 to 1.28, with stable results. The Egger regression analysis showed no significant publication bias (P>0.05). ConclusionSBRT is superior to IMRT in terms of local control rate and acute toxicity and is a preferred treatment option for LAPC, with the MR-guided techniques showing the best performance.

Objective: To eliminate the interference of daratumumab (DARA) in the titer determination of IgG antiA/antiB antibodies, resolve the discrepancy between test results and theoretical expectations, and obtain accurate and reliable test results. Methods: A group A blood sample with a positive IgG antiA titer result was confirmed to have a recent history of DARA administration. After removal of IgM antibodies from the plasma, IgG antiA/antiB titers were determined using the antiglobulin test card with a serial twofold dilution method, following pretreatment of reagent red blood cells with a rabbit antihuman CD38 functional monoclonal antibody. Results: Without pretreatment with the rabbit antihuman CD38 functional monoclonal antibody, the IgG antiA titer of the sample was 128. After pretreatment, the IgG antiA titer became negative. Conclusion: Based on the red blood cell CD38 antigen masking strategy, pretreatment of red blood cells with a rabbit antihuman CD38 functional monoclonal antibody can eliminate the interference of DARA on the titer determination of IgG antibodies, thereby providing accurate diagnostic evidence and decision support for clinical treatment.

ObjectiveTo investigate the value of serum adiponectin (ADPN), retinol-binding protein 4 (RBP4), and neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) in assessing metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (MASH), and to provide a reference for clinical prevention. MethodsA total of 298 patients with metabolic dysfunction-associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD) who attended The Third Hospital of Shanxi Medical University from January 2023 to January 2025 were enrolled as subjects. A Logistic regression analysis was used to investigate the predictive factors for MASH, and R language rms package was used to construct a nomogram. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve, calibration curve, and decision curve analysis were used to evaluate model accuracy and practicality, and a Pearson correlation analysis was used to investigate the correlation between various indicators. The chi-square test was used for comparison of categorical data between groups; the independent-samples t test was used for comparison of normally distributed continuous data between groups, and the Mann-Whitney U test was used for comparison of non-normally distributed continuous data between groups. ResultsA total of 298 MAFLD patients were enrolled, among whom there were 95 patients with MASH and 203 patients with simple steatosis. The multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that alanine aminotransferase (ALT), alkaline phosphatase (ALP), RBP4, ADPN, and NLR were independent influencing factors for MASH (all P<0.05). A nomogram model was constructed based on the above factors, and the ROC curve analysis showed that the model had an area under the ROC curve of 0.985 (95% confidence interval: 0.976 — 0.995), with a sensitivity of 0.968 and a specificity of 0.901. The calibration curve analysis showed no significant difference between the predicted and actual probabilities based on the Hosmer-Lemeshow goodness-of-fit test (χ2=2.905, P=0.940), suggesting that the model had good fit and high predictive accuracy. The decision curve analysis showed that the model achieved net benefit when the risk threshold was >0.05. The Pearson correlation analysis showed that in MASH patients, serum RBP4 was negatively correlated with ADPN (r=-0.275, P<0.001) and was positively correlated with NLR (r=0.282, P<0.001), and ADPN was negatively correlated with NLR (r=-0.221, P<0.001). ConclusionALT, ALP, RBP4, ADPN, and NLR are independent influencing factors for MASH. It is necessary in clinical practice to enhance monitoring, identify high-risk patients as early as possible, and provide timely intervention, so as to reduce the incidence rate of MASH and the risk of disease progression.

Chinese Journal of School Health 2025;46(1):73-77
Objective:
To explore the impact of sleep quality, experience of childhood maltreatment, and their interaction on depressive symptoms among middle school students, so as to provide the reference for early intervention of depressive symptoms among middle school students.
Methods:
From September to December 2023, a questionnaire survey was conducted among 1 231 students from two secondary schools in Harbin, Heilongjiang Province by a convenient sampling method. The survey included general demographic information, Childhood Trauma Questionnaire Short Form, Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index and Short Version of Center for Epidemiological Studies Depression Scale. The Chi square test was used to analyze the differences in depressive symptom, sleep quality and childhood maltreatment among students with different demographic characteristics. Correlation analysis was conducted using Logistic regression, and interaction analysis was performed by both additive and multiplicative interaction models.
Results:
The detection rate of depressive symptoms among middle school students was 22.7%, and the rate for high school students (35.2%) was significantly higher than that for middle school students (17.0%) ( χ 2=50.35, P <0.01). The detection rates of depressive symptoms among middle school students with a history of childhood maltreatment and poor sleep quality were 45.8% and 44.0%, respectively. Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that compared to students without a history of childhood maltreatment, students with a history of childhood maltreatment had a higher risk of depressive symptoms ( OR =4.49,95% CI =3.31~ 6.09 , P <0.01);students with poor sleep quality had a higher risk of depressive symptoms than students with good sleep quality ( OR = 5.99,95% CI =4.37~8.22, P <0.01).The interaction results showed that the presence of childhood maltreatment and poor sleep quality had an additive interaction on the occurrence of depression in middle school students. Compared with students without childhood maltreatment and having good sleep quality, students with childhood maltreatment and poor sleep quality had a 22.49 times higher risk of developing depression ( OR =22.49,95% CI =14.22~35.59, P <0.01).
Conclusion
Depressive symptoms among middle school students are associated with childhood maltreatment and poor sleep quality, and there is an additive interaction between childhood maltreatment and poor sleep quality on the impact of depressive symptoms.

INTRODUCTION:
Trastuzumab deruxtecan (T-DXd) has revolutionised treatment for metastatic breast cancer (MBC). While effective, its high cost and toxicities, such as fatigue and nausea, pose challenges.
METHOD:
Medical records from the Joint Breast Cancer Registry in Singapore were used to study MBC patients treated with T-DXd (February 2021-June 2024). This study was conducted to address whether reducing dose intensity and density may have an adverse effect on treatment outcomes.
RESULTS:
Eighty-seven MBC patients were treated with T-DXd, with a median age of 59 years. At the time of data cutoff, 32.1% of patients were still receiving T-DXd. Over half (54%) of the patients received treatment with an initial relative dose intensity (RDI) of <;85%. Overall median real-world progression-free survival (rwPFS) was 8.1 months. rwPFS was similar between RDI groups (<85%: 8.7 months, <85%: 8.1 months, P=0.62). However, human epidermal growth receptor 2 (HER2)-positive patients showed significantly better rwPFS outcomes compared to HER2-low patients (8.8 versus 2.5 months, P<0.001). Only 16% with central nervous system (CNS) involvement had CNS progressive disease on treatment. No significant progression-free survival (PFS) differences were found between patients with or without CNS disease, regardless of RDI groups. Five patients (5.7%) developed interstitial lung disease (ILD), with 3 (3.4%) having grade 3 events. Two required high-dose steroids and none were rechallenged after ILD. There were no fatalities.
CONCLUSION
Our study demonstrated that reduced dose intensity and density had no significant impact on rwPFS or treatment-related toxicities. Furthermore, only 5.7% of patients developed ILD. T-Dxd provided good control of CNS disease, with 82% of patients achieving CNS disease control.

ObjectiveTo construct a comprehensive evaluation indicator system for clinical practice guidelines of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) that is scientific, systematic, and reflects the characteristics of TCM. MethodsA systematic search was conducted in Chinese and English databases, including CNKI, Wanfang, VIP, SinoMed, PubMed, Embase, and Cochrane Library, to include literature on domestic and international guideline evaluation tools and TCM-related research. Document analysis and CiteSpace were utilized for keyword co-occurrence and clustering analysis. ResultsA total of 65 relevant studies were included, from which seven core thematic domains were identified. Based on the research objectives, a two-step construction strategy was adopted: first, an external evaluation framework was established by referencing international tools to cover methodological rigor and procedural standardization; second, an internal evaluation framework was developed to reflect the distinctive features of TCM clinical practice, including syndrome differentiation and efficacy feedback. Through expert consensus, the indicator system was refined, resulting in a dual-layered structure comprising 8 primary indicators, 22 secondary indicators, and 62 evaluation criteria. ConclusionThe comprehensive evaluation system for TCM clinical practice guidelines, based on bibliometric analysis and core element extraction, integrates both theoretical integrity and practical applicability. This study provides a preliminary research foundation for further optimization, validation, and development of a refined comprehensive evaluation system.
