Objective: To analyze characteristics of hepatitis B infection in HBsAg-/HBV DNA+ blood donors in Taiyuan, so as to provide evidence for adjusting blood screening strategies. Methods: Blood samples of HBsAg-/HBV DNA+ donors were tested using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), chemiluminescence assay, nucleic acid qualitative test, and nucleic acid quantitative test. Data on HBsAg-/HBV DNA+ donors in Taiyuan region from January 1, 2016 to December 31, 2024 were statistically analyzed to evaluate the detection rate, demographic characteristics, influencing factors of detection rate, nucleic acid quantitative results, and serological patterns of HBsAg-/HBV DNA+ donors. Results: From January 1, 2016 to December 31, 2024, 991 565 donor samples underwent nucleic acid testing in Taiyuan. A total of 309 HBsAg-/HBV DNA+ samples were detected, resulting in an HBsAg-/HBV DNA+ detection rate of 3.12 per 10 000. The detection rate varied significantly across different years (P<0.05). Males had a significantly higher HBsAg-/HBV DNA+ detection rate than females, first-time donors had a higher rate than repeat donors, and whole blood donors had a higher rate than apheresis donors (P<0.05). The detection rate also differed significantly among age groups (P<0.05). Logistic regression analysis showed that gender, age, donation frequency, and donation type were all influencing factors for HBsAg-/HBV DNA+ detection (all P<0.05). The predominant serological patterns among HBsAg-/HBV DNA+ donors were HBsAb+/HBcAb+ (43.69%, 135/309) or HBcAb+ alone (24.27%, 75/309). Viral load was detectable in 53.40% (165/309) of the HBsAg-/HBV DNA+ donors. Among these, 61.21% (101/165) donors had a viral load<20 IU/mL, and 94.55% (156/165) had a viral load<200 IU/mL. Donors with viral load<200 IU/mL primarily exhibited HBsAb+/HBcAb+ (41.67%, 65/156) or HBcAb+alone (36.54%, 57/156) serological patterns. Conclusion: The prevalence of HBsAg-/HBV DNA+ is low among blood donors in Taiyuan. Higher detection rates were observed in the 46-55 years age group, males, first-time donors, and whole blood donors. HBsAg-/HBV DNA+ donors exhibit specific serological patterns and generally have low viral loads, indicating a potential residual transfusion risk. It is recommended to add HBcAb testing, together with high-sensitivity nucleic acid testing technologies and donor follow-up, to ensure blood safety and guide donor reentry.

ObjectiveTo explore the incidence of major low anterior resection syndrome (LARS) within six months after sphincter-preserving surgery for rectal cancer and to analyze its associated factors. MethodsClinical records, postoperative rehabilitation data and LARS scores were collected from 889 patients at 3 months postoperatively and from 844 patients at 6 months postoperatively. Patients were divided into a major LARS group and a non-major LARS group. Multivariable Logistic regression was used to analyze factors associated with major LARS at 3 and 6 months postoperatively, and the predictive value of the models was assessed using the Hosmer-Lemeshow goodness-of-fit test and the receiver operating characteristic (ROC). ResultsAmong patients undergoing sphincter-preserving surgery for rectal cancer, 247 patients (27.8%) had major LARS at 3 months postoperatively and 181 patients (21.4%) at 6 months postoperatively. Multivariable Logistic regression showed that Kegel exercises, preoperative radiotherapy, anastomotic leakage, a tumor distance from the anal verge of ≤5 cm, and an anastomotic distance from the anal verge of ≤5 cm were independent factors for major LARS at 3 months postoperatively (P<0.05). At 6 months postoperatively, occasional Kegel exercises during 0~3 months, Kegel exercises during 4~6 months, hydrotherapy during 4~6 months, preoperative chemotherapy, a tumor distance from the anal verge of ≤5 cm, and an anastomotic distance from the anal verge of ≤5 cm were independent factors (P<0.05). The models at 3 and 6 months postoperatively showed goodness-of-fit test P values of 0.986 and 0.517 and area under the curve (AUCs) of 0.843 and 0.870, indicating good predictive value. ConclusionThe incidence of major LARS within six months after sphincter-preserving surgery for rectal cancer is relatively high, and greater attention should be paid to patients who receive preoperative chemoradiotherapy, develop anastomotic leakage, or have tumor and anastomotic distances from the anal verge of ≤5 cm. Patients should also be advised that early postoperative Kegel exercises and hydrotherapy may reduce the incidence of major LARS.

Artificial intelligence (AI) has made preliminary advances in the management of postoperative follow up for lung cancer; however, a systematic review of its application value across the entire follow-up continuum remains lacking. Taking the four core dimensions of postoperative follow-up management as its framework, including surveillance candidate selection, follow-up interval optimization, follow-up protocol design, and follow-up modality selection, this review examines the progress of AI in patient risk stratification, surveillance frequency optimization, content design, and supportive platform development. The review further delineates the current challenges and future directions for AI in this domain, and ultimately seeks to promote the standardized and scaled application of AI in postoperative follow-up management for lung cancer, with the goal of establishing a "care beyond hospitalization" life-cycle management framework that improves the long-term quality of survival for patients undergoing lung cancer surgery.

Objective:
To evaluate the intervention effect of digital health education on dietary self-discipline behaviors among college students, so as to provide evidence based support for scientific dietary behavior interventions in the population.
Methods:
In September 2025, 262 full time undergraduates from Shanghai University of Engineering Science were selected using a stratified random sampling method. Participants were randomly assigned in a 1∶1 ratio using block randomization into an intervention group ( n =131) and a control group ( n =131). The intervention group received a 16 week digital health education program, including artificial intelligence(AI) generated personalized dietary plans, daily push notifications health knowledge, instant feedback on dietary logging, and online fun challenge activities. The control group received traditional health education courses without any additional intervention measures. Structured questionnaires were administered at baseline and post intervention to assess dietary self discipline behaviors, including the consumption frequencies of sugar sweetened beverages, fried foods, fruits, vegetables, dairy products, and breakfast. Chi square test was used to compare dietary self discipline indicators between the two groups before and after the intervention.
Results:
Before the intervention, there were no statistically significant differences in the composition of the six dietary self discipline behavior indicators between the two groups ( χ 2=0.47-6.11, all P >0.05). After the intervention, the differences in the composition of the six indicators between the two groups were statistically significant ( χ 2=6.78-15.88,all P < 0.05 ). After intervention, regarding risky dietary behaviors, the proportion of zero sugar sweetened beverage consumption in the intervention group increased from 10.69% to 27.48%, whereas in the control group, it increased from only 4.58% to 9.16%; the proportion of zero fried food consumption in the intervention group increased from 9.92% to 26.72%, whereas in the control group, it increased from only 7.63% to 10.69%. In the intervention group, the intake frequencies of both sugar sweetened beverages and fried foods decreased ( t =3.44,3.58, both P <0.01). Regarding protective dietary behaviors,the proportion of zero fruit intake in the intervention group decreased from 9.92% to 3.82%. The proportion of the intervention group consuming vegetables ≥2 times/day increased from 31.30% to 63.36%. The proportion of the intervention group consuming dairy products ≥1 time/day increased from 34.35% to 58.78%, compared with an increase from 41.22% to 42.75% in the control group. In the intervention group, the proportion of regular breakfast consumption (1 time/day) increased from 43.51% to 73.28%. The intake frequencies of fruits, vegetables, dairy products, and breakfast in the intervention group all increased ( t =-4.76, -5.46, -3.87, -5.10,all P <0.01).
Conclusion
Digital health education can effectively suppress risky dietary behaviors among college students and promote the formation of protective dietary behaviors.

Objective:
To analyze the epidemiological characteristics, associated factors, and vaccine effectiveness of two pertussis cluster outbreaks in two primary schools in Yangzhong City in 2025, so as to provide evidence for school based epidemic prevention and control.
Methods:
From August 26 to 30, 2025, a pertussis questionnaire was administered to the epidemic affected classes of two primary schools (school A and school B) in Yangzhong City. A descriptive epidemiological retrospective analysis was used to characterize the pertussis cluster outbreaks in Yangzhong City from March to July 2025. A 1∶5 matched case control study (79 cases, 395 controls) was performed. Multivariate Logistic regression was used to identify associated factors, and the clinical symptom incidence rates, types of pertussis containing vaccines, and timeliness of vaccination were compared between groups using Fisher s exact test.
Results:
From March to July 2025, a total of 79 pertussis cases were reported in the two schools, with attack rates of 1.33% and 1.01%, respectively. Cases were predominantly aged 7-8 years (85.37% in school A, 73.68% in school B), and the main clinical manifestation was productive cough (63.29%). The pneumonia incidence rate among hospitalized cases ( 57.14 %) was higher than that among nonhospitalized cases(4.17%)(Fisher s exact test, P <0.01). The interval from the last dose to onset was concentrated at 6 to <7 years (44 cases). Logistic regression showed that children exposed to secondhand smoke in daily life ( OR = 3.86 ), those whose desk mates or front/back desk mates took leave due to cough ( OR =4.67), and those whose dining table mates or front/back table mates took leave due to cough ( OR =3.67) had significantly higher risks of pertussis (all P <0.05). A high proportion of both the case group and the control group received the acellular DTaP vaccine (97.47% and 96.96%, respectively),while a low proportion received the pentavalent vaccine (1.27% and 3.04%, respectively). Additionally, one case received only three doses of the acellular DTaP vaccine.The difference in vaccine type distribution between the two groups was not statistically significant (Fisher s exact test, P =0.31).
Conclusions
The outbreaks represent breakthrough infections under high vaccine coverage. Close contact and secondhand smoke exposure are the main risk factors. A booster immunization strategy with diphtheria-tetanus-pertussis vaccine should be implemented for school aged children.

Objective To explore the effects of air pressure, humidity, wind, and sunshine on the incidence of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases (CVD) in Guiyang, and to provide reference for the prevention of CVD. Methods Using CVD incidence data from September 2021 to August 2022 in Guiyang City and meteorological data including average air pressure, average humidity, wind, and sunshine during the same period, the effects of meteorological factors on CVD incidence were explored and the importance of each factor was analyzed. Results When air pressure was below 868 hPa, above 887 hPa, or between 877 and 883 hPa, and when air pressure dropped less than 5.3 hPa within 24 hours, there was a higher risk of CVD. When the humidity was above 81%, the wind speed was small (<1.2 m/s) or high (>4m/s), and there was less sunlight (less than 3 hours), the risk of CVD was higher. Low humidity (<60%) was not conducive to the onset of CVD. There were highest risks at lag 5~10 days and 4-25 days for high pressure and low sunlight, respectively. When the relative humidity was saturated, there was an immediate effect. When the wind speed was low and high, the immediate effect and hysteresis effects were significant. Among the above meteorological factors, the impact of 24-hour variation of pressure and high or low atmospheric pressure on the incidence of CVD was the most significant, while the impact of sunlight and humidity was the weakest. The impact of diurnal variations in wind and atmospheric pressure was not clear. Conclusion The impact of air pressure on the incidence of CVD does not exhibit a simple linear relationship. The risk of CVD is high in high humidity, low light, and moderate or strong winds. It is necessary to fully consider changes in meteorological factors for CVD prevention and control.

From the perspective of dynamic and static concept in traditional Chinese medicine, we explored the pathogenesis and treatment of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). ADHD is categorized into "dynamic type" and "static type" based on symptom presentation. It is believed that the core disease mechanism of static type ADHD refers to insufficiency of essence and blood, as well as the loss of nourishment of brain marrow and heart blood; the dominant mechanism of dynamic type ADHD refers to excessive use of the mind and improper diet lead to the excessive movement of dragon-thunder fire (symbolizing hyperactivity). The treatment should first differentiate between static type and dynamic type. The treatment for static type focuses on the spleen and kidney, and involves replenishing the acquired constitution to nourish the congenital, supporting the heart and spirit, and enriching the brain and marrow, so as to ensure sufficient qi and blood, abundant essence and strong spirit, thereby improving symptoms of attention deficits. The dynamic type should be treated by static method, and involves using calming medicinals to supplement, transform, and subdue to reach the aims of enriching yin and subduing yang, warming and supplementing the spleen and kidney, which helps restore the dragon-thunder fire to its balance. Based on the physiological characteristics of children, a dynamic-static differentiation and treatment system is established to provide a reference for the clinical treatment of ADHD.

BackgroundDepression is a prevalent emotional problem in adolescents, and parental psychological control is an important predictor of adolescent depression. However, existing research on the acting mechanism between the two is not adequate. ObjectiveTo explore the pathway of negative perfectionism and academic stress between parental psychological control and depressive symptoms among secondary school students, so as to provide references for reducing the incidence risk of depression in such population. MethodsFrom February to April 2023, 1 100 students across 2 middle schools and 2 high schools in Zhongshan city were selected as subjects. The survey was conducted adopting Parental Psychological Control Questionnaire, Chinese Frost Multidimensional Perfectionism Scale (CFMPS), sense of academic stress subscale in Mental Health Inventory of Middle School Student (MMHI-60) and Center for Epidemiological Studies-Depression Scale (CES-D). Spearman correlation analysis was adopted to examine the correlation between scores of all scales above, and Amos 24.0 was used to test the mediating path of negative perfectionism and academic stress between parental psychological control and depressive symptoms among secondary school students. ResultsAmong the 1 009 valid questionnaires withdrew (91.73% of the total), 261 students were detected to have depressive symptoms (25.87%). As the results of Spearman correlation analysis showed, the scores of the Parental Psychological Control Questionnaire, score of negative perfectionism dimension in CFMPS, score of sense of academic stress subscale in MMHI-60 and CES-D score were positively correlated with each other (r=0.323~0.644, P<0.05 or 0.01). The direct effect value of parental psychological control on depressive symptoms in secondary school students was 0.128 (95% CI: 0.061~0.201), accounting for 31.37% of the total effect. Negative perfectionism and academic stress played independently as intermediatory roles between parental psychological control and depressive symptoms in secondary school students, and the indirect effect values were 0.099 (95% CI: 0.068~0.133) and 0.100 (95% CI: 0.060~0.143), accounting for 24.27% and 24.51% of the total effect, respectively. Negative perfectionism and academic stress acted combinedly as the chain effect pathway between parental psychological control and depressve symptoms in secondary school students, with the indirect effect value of 0.081 (95% CI: 0.060~0.106) accounting for 19.85% of the total effect. ConclusionParental psychological control can affect the depressive symptoms among secondary school students directly, and through independent or chain paths of negative perfectionism and academic stress indirectly.
