Clinical practice guidelines represent the best recommendations for patient care. They are developed through systematically reviewing currently available clinical evidence and weighing the relative benefits and risks of various interventions. However, clinical practice guidelines have to go through a long translation cycle from development and revision to clinical promotion and application, facing problems such as scattered distribution, high duplication rate, and low actual utilization. At present, the clinical practice guideline information platform can directly or indirectly solve the problems related to the lengthy revision cycles, decentralized dissemination and limited application of clinical practice guidelines. Therefore, this paper systematically examines different types of clinical practice guideline information platforms and investigates their corresponding challenges and emerging trends in platform design, data integration, and practical implementation, with the aim of clarifying the current status of this field and providing valuable reference for future research on clinical practice guideline information platforms.

Objective:
To explore the prospective association between multidimensional sleep indicators and the risk of newlyonset dental caries, providing a reference for childrens oral healthrelated sleep intervention.
Methods:
In October 2021, 1 417 students in grades 1 to 4 (aged 6 to 11) from two elementary schools in Bengbu, Anhui Province, were selected by cluster sampling method. Surveys and followup visits were conducted at baseline (T1), November 2022 (T2), May 2023 (T3), and November 2023 (T4), respectively, including parental questionnaires, oral health and physical examination. Bedtime, sleep duration, sleep midpoint, social jet lag, weekend catchup sleep, and sleep habits were collected and calculated. A multifactorial Cox proportional risk regression model was used to analyze the association between multidimensional sleep indicators and newlyonset caries in schoolaged children after 2 years.
Results:
The prevalence of dental caries in children was 65.1% at baseline, and the prevalence was 59.0% at the end of the 2year followup. Cox proportional risk regression model showed that for every 1point increase in the childrens bedtime resistance, nocturnal awakenings, parasomnias, and daytime sleepiness scores, the risk of newlyonset caries increased by 12% (HR=1.12, 95%CI=1.08-1.15), 22% (HR=1.22, 95%CI=1.15-1.29), 12% (HR=1.12, 95%CI=1.08-1.17), and 15% (HR=1.15, 95%CI=1.12-1.19), respectively; the risk of newlyonset caries increased by 23% for each 1 h increase in the length of weekend catchup sleep (HR=1.23, 95%CI=1.14 -1.33); compared with children who went to bed before 21:00 on school days, those who went to bed later than 22:00 had a 57% higher risk of newlyonset caries (HR=1.57, 95%CI=1.22-2.03). Compared to children who slept adequately (≥9 h/d), those with insufficient sleep had a 67% higher risk of new caries (HR=1.67, 95%CI=1.43-1.95) (P<0.01).
Conclusions
These findings suggest a significant association between sleep patterns/sleep disorders and the development of childhood dental caries. Incorporating sleep behavior optimization and sleep quality improvement into comprehensive caries prevention and oral health management protocols may represent a promising intervention strategy to enhance childrens oral health outcomes.

Chinese Journal of School Health 2025;46(8):1098-1101
Objective:
To investigate the cross sectional association between bedroom nocturnal light exposure and objectively measured sleep parameters in college students, so as to provide evidence for promoting sleep health.
Methods:
From September to October 2019, a convenience sampling method was used to recruit 365 healthy college students from two universities in Hefei, establishing a cohort. Bedroom nocturnal light exposure was measured at the individual level for two consecutive days using a portable illuminometer (TES-1339R; Taishi Corp, Taiwan, China). Sleep parameters were objectively measured over seven consecutive days using wrist worn accelerometers (ActiGraph GT3X-BT, Pensacola, FL). Multiple linear regression models were employed to examine the association between nocturnal light exposure and sleep parameters.
Results:
Compared to the low nocturnal light exposure (<3 lx) group, the high exposure (≥3 lx) group exhibited significantly lower sleep efficiency[(93.5± 2.7 )%,(92.2±2.9)%, t =3.93], longer wake after sleep onset (WASO)[(24.7±90.3)(29.2±11.2)min, t =-3.66], higher movement index(11.0±3.6, 12.2± 3.8, t =-2.80), and higher sleep fragmentation index(20.5±6.5,23.0±7.0, t =-3.24) (all P <0.01). After adjusting for covariates,multiple linear regression showed that,compared to the low nocturnal light exposure group, the high exposure group had reduced sleep efficiency ( β =-1.15, 95% CI =-1.78 to -0.52), increased WASO [ β (95% CI )=3.94(1.55- 6.33 )], higher movement index[ β (95% CI )=1.05(0.20-1.89)], and elevated sleep fragmentation index[ β (95% CI )=2.35(0.81-3.88)](all P <0.05).
Conclusions
Light exposure at night negatively impacts college students sleep. Optimizing bedroom lighting management may improve sleep quality in adolescents.

Chinese Journal of School Health 2025;46(9):1333-1336
Objective:
To investigate the impact of intergenerational parent-child separation (PCS) on allergic diseases among rural preschool children, providing theoretical guidance for developing targeted public health interventions.
Methods:
From March to June 2024, 10 kindergartens were selected from Nanling, Wuhu City, Anhui Province. A total of 2 279 children aged 3-6 years and their parents/primary caregivers participated in the survey by a combination of convenience sampling and cluster sampling method. Children s fathers and mothers reported the experiences of PCS during their childhood. The children s PCS experiences and allergies were reported by their primary caregivers. The International Study of Asthma and Allergies in Childhood (ISAAC) questionnaire was used to supplement the allergies (allergic asthma, allergic rhinitis and atopic dermatitis). Analysis of variance (ANOVA) and Chi square tests were used to compare differences between children in different PCS groups. Logistic regression models assessed the association between PCS and the risk of allergic diseases in preschool children.
Results:
Among the preschoolers enrolled, the prevalence of allergic diseases in only parent-child separation group in childhood, only child separation group, and the intergenerational continuity of PCS groups were significantly higher than those of the none separation group (38.0%, 41.8%, 48.1%,30.4%; χ 2=40.45, P < 0.01 ). After adjusting for covariates including child age, sex and body mass index, Logistic regression model revealed that compared to children in the group without PCS, those in the only parent-child separation in childhood( OR =1.43, 95% CI =1.06-1.94), only child separation ( OR =1.82, 95% CI =1.22-2.71), and intergenerational continuity of PCS ( OR =2.33, 95% CI =1.68-3.24) exhibited higher allergic disease risk (all P <0.05).
Conclusions
Intergenerational continuity of PCS is related to the increased risk of allergies in preschool children. The multigenerational accumulation of adverse effects from PCS underscores the importance of breaking the cycle of disadvantage across generations.

Patients with severe trauma require an extremely timely treatment and transfusion plays an irreplaceable role in the emergency treatment of such patients. An increasing number of evidence-based medicinal evidences and clinical practices suggest that patients with severe traumatic bleeding benefit from early transfusion of low-titer group O whole blood or hemostatic resuscitation with red blood cells, plasma and platelet of a balanced ratio. However, the current domestic mode of blood supply cannot fully meet the requirements of timely and effective blood transfusion for emergency treatment of patients with severe trauma in clinical practice. In order to solve the key problems in blood supply and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma, Branch of Clinical Transfusion Medicine of Chinese Medical Association, Group for Trauma Emergency Care and Multiple Injuries of Trauma Branch of Chinese Medical Association, Young Scholar Group of Disaster Medicine Branch of Chinese Medical Association organized domestic experts of blood transfusion medicine and trauma treatment to jointly formulate Chinese expert consensus on blood support mode and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma patients ( version 2024). Based on the evidence-based medical evidence and Delphi method of expert consultation and voting, 10 recommendations were put forward from two aspects of blood support mode and transfusion strategies, aiming to provide a reference for transfusion resuscitation in the emergency treatment of severe trauma and further improve the success rate of treatment of patients with severe trauma.

ObjectiveTo investigate the inhibitory effect of Mahuang Xixin Fuzitang on the migration of dendritic cells (DCs) in mice and its underlying mechanism. MethodMouse bone marrow-derived DCs were isolated and cultured. The morphological changes of the cells at different stages were observed under a microscope, and the CD11c+ proportion was detected by flow cytometry to identify DC purity. Cells were treated with Mahuang Xixin Fuzitang (1, 2, 5, 10, 20, 40, 50, 100 g·L-1) for 24 hours, and the effect of Mahuang Xixin Fuzitang on cell proliferation was assessed using the cell counting kit-8 (CCK-8) assay to determine the appropriate concentrations for treatment. After modeling by lipopolysaccharide (LPS) induction, DCs were divided into a blank group, a model group, and Mahuang Xixin Fuzitang groups (2, 4, 8 g·L-1). The expression of surface molecules CD80, CD86, and major histocompatibility complex-Ⅱ (MHC-Ⅱ) were detected by flow cytometry. Transwell chamber assay was used to observe cell migration. The levels of chemokine C-C-primitive receptor 7 (CCR7) and chemokine C-X-C-primitive receptor 4 (CXCR4) on the cell surface were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). The expression of filamentous actin (F-actin) in the cell microfilament cytoskeleton was detected by immunofluorescence (IF) staining. Real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (Real-time PCR) was employed to determine the mRNA expression levels of Ras homolog family member A (RhoA) and Rho-associated coiled-coil containing protein kinase 1 (ROCK1). Western blot analysis was performed to detect the protein expression of RhoA and ROCK1. ResultCompared with the blank group, the model group exhibited significantly higher expression levels of CD80, CD86, and MHC-Ⅱ (P<0.01), a significantly increased number of cells migrating to the lower chamber (P<0.01), and significantly elevated levels of CCR7 and CXCR4 (P<0.05, P<0.01). Additionally, F-actin expression was significantly increased (P<0.01), and both RhoA and ROCK1 mRNA and protein expression levels were significantly higher (P<0.05, P<0.01). Compared with the model group, treatment with Mahuang Xixin Fuzitang (2, 4, 8 g·L-1) for 24 hours resulted in significantly lower expression levels of CD80, CD86, and MHC-Ⅱ (P<0.01), a significantly reduced number of cells migrating to the lower chamber (P<0.05), and significantly decreased levels of CCR7 and CXCR4 (P<0.05, P<0.01). Furthermore, F-actin expression was significantly reduced (P<0.01), and both RhoA and ROCK1 mRNA and protein expression levels were significantly decreased (P<0.05, P<0.01). ConclusionMahuang Xixin Fuzitang can inhibit the migration of DCs in mice, and its mechanism of action may be related to reducing the activity of the Rho/ROCK signaling pathway, thereby affecting changes in the cell cytoskeleton.

Objective:
To explore the association between bedroom light at night (LAN) exposure and body mass index (BMI) in children at 1 year follow up, so as to provide new strategies for obesity prevention.
Methods:
From December 2021 to May 2022, cluster random sampling was conducted, involving 648 children from two primary schools in Tianchang, Chuzhou City, Anhui Province, China, to assess bedroom LAN exposure of children during sleep. A questionnaire survey and physical examination were carried out in May 2022. Multivariate linear regression was performed to analyze the correlation between bedroom LAN exposure and BMI variable quantity at 1 year follow up (May, 2023).
Results:
The median intensity of bedroom LAN exposure during the sleep episode was [1.11(0.35,3.24)lx] in children. The proportion of the sample exposed to an average light intensity of ≥3 lx was 27.5%, while 19.0% was exposed to a LAN intensity of ≥5 lx during the sleep episode. In the multivariable linear regression, after adjusting for covariates, including sex, baseline age, sleep duration, family monthly income, and maternal education level, exposure to a 1 h-average post bedtime LAN intensity of ≥3 lx ( β=0.25, 95%CI =0.05-0.44) and LAN≥5 lx ( β=0.34, 95% CI = 0.12-0.55) was associated with a gain of 0.25 and 0.34 kg/m 2, respectively, in the children s BMI at the 1 year follow up ( P < 0.05).
Conclusions
A positive correlation was found between bedroom LAN exposure and BMI variable quantity at 1 year follow up in children. Thus, reduced bedroom LAN exposure might be useful for interventions aimed at obesity prevention.
