Abstract
To analyzes the characteristics, problems and enlightenment of physical activity observation tools, so as to provide reference for researchers to quickly and accurately choose appropriate observation tools to evaluate children s and adolescents physical activity. Literature search is conducted in eight databases of Chinese and English, including CNKI, Wanfang, VIP, Web of Science, PubMed, Medline, ERIC, and SPORTDiscus. Ultimately, eight observation tools for assessing physical activity in children and adolescents are included. Through summarization and comparison, it is found that the applications of those tools cover multiple age groups, the observation indicators cover multiple dimensions for each with varying emphases, and the applicable contexts vary in their specific background information, and recording methods tend to be quantitative. However, several issues remain to be addressed in practical applications. First, the observation indicators need to be supplemented and improved; second, physical activity in community environments and academic classrooms requires further attention; third, physical activity intensity needs to be scientifically evaluated; fourth, observation and recording methods need to be integrated and innovated; fifth, the number of observation subjects needs to be expanded. Future research could focus on developing observation tools tailored to the characteristics of Chinese children and adolescents, while drawing on foreign observation tools to comprehensively assess physical activity among children and adolescents.

Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), as a treasure of the Chinese nation, plays a significant role in maintaining public health. In 2019, the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China and the State Council proposed for the first time the establishment of a TCM registration and evaluation evidence system that integrates TCM theory, "personal experience" and clinical trials (referred to as the "Three-in-One" System) to promote the inheritance and innovation of TCM. Subsequently, the National Medical Products Administration issued several guiding principles to advance the improvement and implementation of this system. Owing to the complexity of its implementation, there are still differing understandings within the TCM industry regarding the positioning of the "Three-in-One" Registration and Evaluation Evidence System, as well as the connotation and value orientation of the "personal experience." To address this, Academician WANG Qi, President of the TCM Association, China International Exchange and Promotion Association for Medical and Healthcare and TCM master, led a group of academicians, TCM masters, TCM pharmacology experts and clinical TCM experts to convene a "Seminar on Promoting the Implementation of the ′Three-in-One′ Registration and Evaluation Evidence System for Chinese Medicinals." Through extensive discussions, an expert consensus was formed, clarifying the different roles of the TCM theory, "personal experience" and clinical trials within the system. It was further emphasized that the "personal experience" is the core of this system, and its data should be derived from clinical practice scenarios. In the future, the improvement of this system will require collaborative efforts across multiple fields to promote the high-quality development of the Chinese medicinal industry.

Objective:To analyze the pathological findings of ultrasound-guided transplant kidney puncture after renal transplantation and the pathogenesis of different types of diseases.Methods:A retrospective study was conducted to select 257 patients who underwent ultrasound-guided transplant kidney puncture pathology biopsy due to abnormal tests or uncomfortable symptoms at Beijing Friendship Hospital, Capital Medical University from June 2020 to April 2022, and to analyze the pathological results of puncture and the pathogenesis of different types of diseases and puncture-related complications in the post-transplantation patients after transplant kidney puncture biopsy. Measurement data conforming to normal distribution were expressed as mean ± standard deviation ( ± s), and independent sample t-test was used to compare different types of diseases; measurement data did not conform to normal distribution were expressed as median (interquartile distance) [ M( Q1, Q3)], and the comparison between different types of diseases was conducted by non-parametric test. The count data were compared among different types of diseases using Chi-squre test. Results:Among the 257 patients who underwent transplant renal puncture, 93 cases (36.2%) suffered from antibody-mediated rejection (ABMR), 76 cases (29.6%) suffered from IgA nephropathy, 63 cases (24.5%) suffered from T cell-mediated rejection (TCMR), 21 cases (8.2%) suffered from polyomavirus-associated nephropathy (PVAN), and 4 cases (1.6%) suffered from thrombotic microangiopathy (TMA), 16 cases (6.2%) suffered from diabetic nephropathy, and 12 cases (4.7%) suffered from calcineurin inhibitor (CNI) nephropathy. TCMR, TMA and PVAN occurred significantly in the early post-transplantation period (within about 4 years) ( P<0.001), and ABMR occurred significantly in the late post-transplantation period (after about 8 years) ( P<0.001). In terms of time distribution, creatinine abnormality and proteinuria were the main reasons for puncture. Among those diagnosed with PVAN, the time to transplantation was significantly shorter in those who underwent puncture for creatinine abnormality than in those who underwent puncture for proteinuria ( P=0.011). In terms of puncture-related complications, a total of 8 cases were found to have arteriovenous fistulae at the time of review, 2 cases had perinephric hematomas, and 1 case had both of these two puncture-related complications. Conclusions:Transplant renal complications in renal transplant patients mainly include ABMR, IgA nephropathy, TCMR, PVAN, diabetic nephropathy, CNI nephropathy and TMA. In terms of the pathogenesis of different types of diseases after transplantation, post-transplantation PVAN, TMA, and TCMR mostly occur in the early post-transplantation period, while ABMR occurs at a later time. However, it is worth noting that the clinical symptoms of different types of transplantation kidney-related diseases are similar and not typical.

Aim To study the proliferation,invasion and migration ability of Quaking(QKI)in gastric cancer(GC)via elucidating the molecular mechanisms associated with QKI in the occurrence and development of GC through bioinformatics.Methods Differential expression analysis of QKI was performed across vari-ous human cancer samples by merging data from the TCGA and GTEx databases.The correlation was ana-lyzed between QKI protein expression and tumor muta-tion burden(TMB)score,microsatellite instability(MSI)score,and ESTIMATE score,and the correla-tion was also explored between QKI protein expression and overall survival(OS),disease free survival(DFS),and progression free survival(PFS).EMT related genes that could encode DECircRNAs were ob-tained through bioinformatics analysis to construct a QKI-EMT-circRNAs regulatory network.The differenti-ally expressed circRNAs and EMT related genes in TMK1 cells were verified.The proliferation,invasion and migration ability of the QKI was studied by using the knockdown system.Results QKI was differential-ly expressed in the vast majority of tumors and was closely related to TMB,MSI,and tumor microenviron-ment(TME);QKI emerged as a high-risk factor for predicting OS,DFS,and PFS in individuals with com-mon human cancers.QKI regulated the splicing of 6 EMT related gene transcripts to form eight circRNAs,all of which were significantly associated with the prog-nosis of gastric cancer patients.Cell experiments showed that compared to normal gastric epithelial cells,only hsa_ccirc_0004015,CALD1,and CDK14 were down-regulated in TMK1 cells.Knocking down QKI inhibited the proliferation,invasion and migration ability of TMK1 cells.Conclusion QKI exerts regu-latory control over the transcription of six EMT-related genes,resulting in the formation of circRNAs,thereby promoting the pathogenesis and progression of GC.QKI is highly expressed in TMK1 cells,and knock-down of QKI can inhibit the proliferation,invasion and migration ability of TMK1 cells.

Objective To monitor the susceptibility of clinical isolates to antimicrobial agents in tertiary hospitals in major regions of China in 2022.Methods Clinical isolates from 58 hospitals in China were tested for antimicrobial susceptibility using a unified protocol based on disc diffusion method or automated testing systems.Results were interpreted using the 2022 Clinical &Laboratory Standards Institute(CLSI)breakpoints.Results A total of 318 013 clinical isolates were collected from January 1,2022 to December 31,2022,of which 29.5%were gram-positive and 70.5%were gram-negative.The prevalence of methicillin-resistant strains in Staphylococcus aureus,Staphylococcus epidermidis and other coagulase-negative Staphylococcus species(excluding Staphylococcus pseudintermedius and Staphylococcus schleiferi)was 28.3%,76.7%and 77.9%,respectively.Overall,94.0%of MRSA strains were susceptible to trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole and 90.8%of MRSE strains were susceptible to rifampicin.No vancomycin-resistant strains were found.Enterococcus faecalis showed significantly lower resistance rates to most antimicrobial agents tested than Enterococcus faecium.A few vancomycin-resistant strains were identified in both E.faecalis and E.faecium.The prevalence of penicillin-susceptible Streptococcus pneumoniae was 94.2%in the isolates from children and 95.7%in the isolates from adults.The resistance rate to carbapenems was lower than 13.1%in most Enterobacterales species except for Klebsiella,21.7%-23.1%of which were resistant to carbapenems.Most Enterobacterales isolates were highly susceptible to tigecycline,colistin and polymyxin B,with resistance rates ranging from 0.1%to 13.3%.The prevalence of meropenem-resistant strains decreased from 23.5%in 2019 to 18.0%in 2022 in Pseudomonas aeruginosa,and decreased from 79.0%in 2019 to 72.5%in 2022 in Acinetobacter baumannii.Conclusions The resistance of clinical isolates to the commonly used antimicrobial agents is still increasing in tertiary hospitals.However,the prevalence of important carbapenem-resistant organisms such as carbapenem-resistant K.pneumoniae,P.aeruginosa,and A.baumannii showed a downward trend in recent years.This finding suggests that the strategy of combining antimicrobial resistance surveillance with multidisciplinary concerted action works well in curbing the spread of resistant bacteria.

Purpose:
This study evaluated the value of contrast-enhanced ultrasonography (CEUS) in the ultrasound-guided microwave ablation (MWA) treatment of symptomatic focal uterine adenomyosis.
Methods:
This retrospective study was conducted between March 2020 and January 2023, enrolling 52 patients with symptomatic focal uterine adenomyosis who had undergone MWA. All patients were examined with CEUS before and after MWA. The non-perfused volume (NPV) was compared between CEUS and dynamic contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (DCEMRI) following ablation. Therapeutic efficacy and safety were evaluated at 3-, 6-, and 12-month follow-ups. Additionally, this study explored the correlations between pre-treatment CEUS features and a volume reduction ratio indicating sufficient ablation, defined as 50% or more at the 3-month follow-up.
Results:
No significant differences in NPV were noted between CEUS and DCE-MRI immediately after MWA and during follow-up (all P>0.05). At the 3-month follow-up, the median VRRs for the uterus and adenomyosis were 33.2% and 63.9%, respectively. Sufficient ablation was achieved in 69.2% (36/52) of adenomyosis cases, while partial ablation was observed in the remaining 30.8% (16/52). The identification of non-enhancing areas on pre-treatment CEUS was associated with sufficient ablation (P=0.016). At the 12-month follow-up, significant decreases were observed in both the uterine and adenomyosis volumes (all P<0.001). Dysmenorrhea and menorrhagia were significantly alleviated at 12 months, and no major complications were encountered.
Conclusion
CEUS can be used to evaluate the ablation zone of focal adenomyosis that has been treated with MWA, similarly to DCE-MRI. The identification of non-enhancing areas on pretreatment CEUS indicates satisfactory treatment outcomes.
