This paper has constructed a traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） specialized disease dataset platform for mixed hemorrhoids based on a multimodal large model， and the preliminary application has been validated. The platform uses StarRocks to establish a four-level data warehouse system， enabling the aggregation， cleaning， and standardization of multi-source heterogeneous data. Using DeepSeek-R1-Distill-Qwen-7B as the base model， domain fine-tuning is performed through low-rank adaptation （LoRA） technology. Combined with LLaMA-3.3 natural language processing and reasoning chain techniques， the platform enables intelligent parsing and structured extraction of unstructured TCM medical records. It accurately identifies six major categories and 28 subcategories of entities， including symptoms and syndromes， with a fine-tuned model F1 score of 93.8%. The platform has established a high-quality specialized disease dataset containing more than 50,000 medical records and has been applied in a real-world study involving 17,831 patients， preliminarily verifying the efficacy of TCM heritage surgery.

Objective:To investigate the expression and clinical significance of the complement C3 and the S100 calcium binding protein A10 (S100A10) in children with traumatic brain injury (TBI).Methods:This case-control study included 129 TBI children admitted to the Affiliated Xuzhou Children′s Hospital of Xuzhou Medical University from January 2023 to November 2024.The patients were divided into a mild group (85 cases) and a moderate-to-severe group (44 cases).Thirty children with inguinal hernia but no underlying diseases admitted to the hospital during the same period were enrolled as the control group A. Twenty children whose lumbar puncture examination showed normal cerebrospinal fluid results and imaging tests showed no central nervous system disorder were included in the control group B. The children with moderate-to-severe TBI were followed up for 1 month after injury and further divided into good and poor prognosis groups.One-way (repeated-measures) analysis of variance (ANOVA) and t-tests were used to compare differences in complement C3 and S100A10 levels in serum and cerebrospinal fluid among groups.The correlation analysis was performed using the Spearman rank correlation method.Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were drawn to evaluate the value of complements C3 and S100A10 proteins for predicting TBI severity. Results:The serum complement C3 levels in control group A, mild TBI, and moderate-to-severe TBI groups were (1.15±0.26) g/L, (1.02±0.09) g/L, (0.87±0.15) g/L, respectively.The difference in serum complement C3 levels was statistically significant among these three groups ( F=53.661, P<0.001).The serum S100A10 levels in control group A, mild TBI, and moderate-to-severe TBI groups were (0.09±0.03) μg/L, (0.17±0.04) μg/L, (0.32±0.11) μg/L, respectively.The difference in serum S100A10 levels was statistically significant among these three groups ( F=71.093, P<0.001).The levels of complement C3 and S100A10 in the cerebrospinal fluid (30 min post-operation) of children with severe TBI were significantly higher than those in the control group B, with statistically significant differences (all P<0.01).Correlation analysis revealed that Glasgow Coma Scale scores showed a positive correlation with serum complement C3 levels and a negative correlation with S100A10 levels ( r=0.592, -0.705; all P<0.001).The serum complement C3 and S100A10 levels were (0.90±0.13) g/L and (0.30±0.10) μg/L in the good prognosis group, and (0.74±0.16) g/L and (0.42±0.11) μg/L in the poor prognosis group, respectively.Both serum complement C3 and S100A10 levels were statistically significantly different between good and poor prognosis groups ( t=3.025, -3.014; all P<0.01).The complement C3 level in the cerebrospinal fluid of severe TBI children was (0.093±0.007) g/L 30 min after operation, and it gradually increased to reach the first peak at day 3 and the second peak at day 5 postoperatively[(0.112±0.005) g/L and (0.120±0.010) g/L, respectively].The difference in the complement C3 level in the cerebrospinal fluid of severe TBI children was significant between 30 min and 3-5 d after operation ( F=42.756, P<0.01).The S100A10 level in the cerebrospinal fluid of severe TBI children was (2.56±0.31) μg/L 30 min after operation, and then it showed a sustained increase, reaching (4.09±0.13) μg/L at day 7 postoperatively.The difference in the S100A10 level in the cerebrospinal fluid of severe TBI children was significant between 30 min and 7 d after operation ( F=110.676, P<0.01).ROC curve analysis showed that the areas under the curve for predicting moderate-to-severe TBI based on serum complement C3 and S100A10 levels were 0.802 and 0.889, respectively (all P<0.01). Conclusions:Serum complement C3 levels are significantly decreased whereas serum S100A10 levels are markedly elevated in pediatric TBI patients.The measurement of serum complement C3 and S100A10 levels can aid in the clinical assessment of the severity and prognosis of TBI children.Both complement C3 and S100A10 levels in cerebrospinal fluid show a significant elevation within 7 days after operation in severe pediatric TBI, which is potentially linked to sustained astrocyte activation.

OBJECTIVES: To compare the efficacy of toric implantable collamer lens (Toric-ICL) and femtosecond laser-assisted in situ keratomileusis (FS-LASIK) for myopia correction in patients with moderate to high myopia complicated with astigmatism. METHODS: We retrospectively collected data from 64 patients (aged 18-42 years) with moderate to high myopia complicated with astigmatism (128 eyes) undergoing either Toric-ICL (28 patients/56 eyes) or FS-LASIK (36 patients/72 eyes) at our department between January, 2019 and December, 2020. The changes of uncorrected distance visual acuity (UCVA), spherical equivalent (SE), mean astigmatism correction index (CI), corneal endothelial cell density (ECD) and intraocular pressure (IOP) following the procedures were compared between the two groups. RESULTS: In FS-LASIK group, all the eyes (72/72) achieved an UCVA≥1.0, similar to the rate in Toric-ICL group (55/56 eyes; P=0.2374). The postoperative SE was also comparable between FS-LASIK and Toric-ICL groups [0.43±0.06 D (range: -1.0 to 1.50 D) vs 0.38±0.05 D (range: -0.75 to 1.00 D); P=0.56]. The mean astigmatism CI was significantly higher in FS-LASIK group than in Toric-ICL group (0.8561 vs 0.7176; P<0.0001), and 88.89% of the eyes in FS-LASIK group and 69.64% in Toric-ICL group had postoperative astigmatism ≤0.50 D. No significant changes were observed in postoperative corneal ECD in FS-LASIK group, whereas ECD decreased significantly after the procedure in Toric-ICL group (P=0.0057). The patients undergoing Toric-ICL exhibited no significant changes of postoperative IOP, but the patients receiving FS-LASIK had significantly reduced IOP after the procedure (P<0.001). CONCLUSIONS Although the patients included in Toric-ICL group had higher myopia and astigmatism, Toric-ICL still showed better predictability and efficacy for astigmatic correction in Toric-ICL group. Toric-ICL is an effective and safe equivalent of FS-LASIK for correcting moderate myopia but can be more advantageous for correcting high myopia with astigmatism.

Depression is increasingly prevalent among adolescents and can profoundly impact their lives. However, the early detection of depression is often hindered by the time-consuming diagnostic process and the absence of objective biomarkers. In this study, we propose a novel approach for depression detection based on an affective brain-computer interface (aBCI) and the resting-state electroencephalogram (EEG). By fusing EEG features associated with both emotional and resting states, our method captures comprehensive depression-related information. The final depression detection model, derived through decision fusion with multiple independent models, further enhances detection efficacy. Our experiments involved 40 adolescents with depression and 40 matched controls. The proposed model achieved an accuracy of 86.54% on cross-validation and 88.20% on the independent test set, demonstrating the efficiency of multimodal fusion. In addition, further analysis revealed distinct brain activity patterns between the two groups across different modalities. These findings hold promise for new directions in depression detection and intervention.

OBJECTIVE To explore the clinical characteristics of patients with hematologic tumors combined with Fusarium infection and analyze the prevention and control measures.METHODS Six patients with hematologic neo-plasms combined with Fusarium infection diagnosed at the First Medical Center of the People's Liberation Army General Hospital from Apr.2019 to Dec.2023 were selected as research objects.Through retrospective analysis of patients' clinical data,the clinical manifestations,diagnosis,treatment and prevention strategies of Fusarium in-fection in hematologic neoplasms were analyzed.RESULTS All six patients with hematologic neoplasms combined with Fusarium infection were neutropenic or deficient patients,with main symptoms including moderate fever,painful skin nodules,rash,skin broken and crusted,and scrotal swelling and pain.Patients with severe neutrophil deficiency were susceptible to blood-borne Fusobacterium infections.Four patients had a markedly elevated G-test and Fusorium was first detected by microbiome metagenomic next-generation sequencing(mNGS)in blood,earli-er than traditional pathogenic culture methods.Five patients had Fusarium detected in urine or stool cultures.All six patients received empirical antibacterial and antifungal treatments,but the fungal infection treatment effects were poor.Treatment was adjusted according to the pathogenetic findings,mainly using a combination regimen based on liposomal amphotericin B or posaconazole tablets,with three patients cured and three death.Two pa-tients were from the same ward with a sixteen-day interval.Although no evidence of infection transmission was found,there was still a risk of cross-infection in patients with hematological malignancies and severe immunodefi-ciency.Measures for the prevention and control of hospital-acquired infections were implemented for patients with Fusarium infection and the ward.CONCLUSIONS The clinical manifestations of patients with hematological tumors combined with Fusarium infection are complex and varied with high mortality rates.MNGS testing is valuable in the early diagnosis of Fusarium infection,and it is necessary to explore new treatment options and hospital-ac-quired infectious disease prevention and control measures to improve the prognosis.

Objective:To explore the impact of changes of myocardial infarct size on left ventricular adverse remodeling in patients with acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) after primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).Methods:This was a prospective cohort study. The STEMI patients who underwent primary PCI in the First Medical Center of the Chinese People′s Liberation Army General Hospital, Beijing Anzhen Hospital, Hainan Hospital of the Chinese People′s Liberation Army General Hospital and Guangxi Yulin First People Hospital from January 1, 2017 to January 1, 2022 were enrolled. Cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) was performed to dynamically assess the myocardial infarct size and calculate the rate of infarct size change between the acute phase (5 to 7 days post-primary PCI) and 6-month follow-up. The endpoint was left ventricular adverse remodeling which was defined as an increase of more than 20% in left ventricular end-diastolic volume (LVEDV) assessed by CMR at 6 months after primary PCI compared with LVEDV at 1 week after primary PCI. Based on serial CMR assessments, the patients were divided into left ventricular adverse remodeling group and non-remodeling group. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was used to evaluate the predictive performance of infarct size change for left ventricular adverse remodeling, and according to the optimal cutoff value, improved infarct size was defined as a decrease of >20% in the infarct size measured by CMR at 6 months after primary PCI compared with infarct size at 1 week after primary PCI. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was performed to identify the protective factors and risk factors for left ventricular adverse remodeling.Results:A total of 267 patients were enrolled, aged (58±11) years, with 234 males (87.6%). And 73 cases in the left ventricular remodeling group and 194 cases in the non-remodeling group. Infarct size assessed by CMR at 6 months after primary PCI decreased significantly compared with infarct size at 1 week after primary PCI in the left ventricular remodeling group ((23±13)% vs. (27±12)%, P=0.004), the same as in the non-remodeling group ((18±10)% vs. (23±10)%, P<0.001). The area under the ROC curve for the rate of infarct size change in predicting left ventricular remodeling was 0.735 (95% CI 0.670-0.799, P<0.001), a 20% reduction was the optimal cut-off value. Compared to the patients with non-improved infarct size, the incidence of left ventricular adverse remodeling was significantly lower in the patients with improved infarct size (18% (24/133) vs. 37% (49/134), P=0.001). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that improvement in IS was a protective factor for left ventricular adverse remodeling ( OR=0.376, 95% CI 0.236-0.721, P=0.002). Conclusion:Patients with STEMI who experience obvious reduction in infarct size after primary PCI have a significantly reduced risk of left ventricular adverse remodeling.

Objective To explore method for improving the colonization efficiency of Helicobacter pylori(Hp)in the mouse stomach and to determine if the proton pump inhibitor(PPI)pantoprazole can act as a colonization adjuvant to enhance Hp colonization,with the aim of providing an effective tool for establishing an Hp infection mouse model.Methods The Hp Sydney strain 1(SS1)was introduced and solid plate and liquid culture systems were established.The effects of different doses of pantoprazole on gastric acid secretion in mice were compared.The impact of Hp inoculation,alone or combined with pantoprazole pretreatment,on Hp colonization efficiency was analyzed using rapid urease tests,bacterial plate cultures,and TaqMan quantitative polymerase chain reaction.Results PPI pretreatment inhibited gastric acid secretion and promoted Hp colonization in the mouse stomach,to some extent.Conclusions PPI can serve as colonization adjuvants to enhanc e the efficiency of constructing Hp infection mouse models.

Objective:To observe the effects of shoulder-three-needle therapy plus joint mobilization and extracorporeal shock wave therapy(ESWT)in improving symptoms and pain mediators in patients with scapulohumeral periarthritis.Methods:A total of 82 patients with scapulohumeral periarthritis were randomized into a control group and an observation group by the random number table method,with 41 cases in each group.The control group was treated with ESWT.The observation group was treated with additional shoulder-three-needle therapy plus joint mobilization based on the treatment in the control group.After 4 weeks of treatment,shoulder joint function,pain mediators,inflammatory factor levels,and clinical efficacy were compared between the two groups.Results:The total effective rate and the score of shoulder joint function in the observation group were higher than those in the control group(P<0.05).After treatment,the levels of serum pain mediators substance P(SP),5-hydroxytryptamine(5-HT),and prostaglandin E2(PGE2),as well as inflammatory factors interleukin(IL)-6,tumor necrosis factor(TNF)-α,and C-reactive protein(CRP)decreased significantly in both groups(P<0.05).And,the serum pain mediators SP,5-HT,and PGE2,and the levels of inflammatory factors IL-6,TNF-α,and CRP in the observation group were all lower than those in the control group(P<0.05).Conclusion:Shoulder-three-needle therapy plus joint mobilization and ESWT has a better curative effect than ESWT alone in treating scapulohumeral periarthritis.It can effectively improve the clinical symptoms,reduce the levels of pain mediators and inflammatory factors,and increase shoulder joint function.
