ObjectiveTo explore the relationship between acne vulgaris and gut microbiota. MethodsA total of 29 clinical cases diagnosed with moderate-to-severe acne vulgaris and 26 healthy individuals as control subjects were recruited. Fecal specimens were collected from all participants， and further analysis of gut microbial communities was performed by leveraging high-throughput sequencing techniques that target the hypervariable regions of 16S rRNA genes. ResultsAssociations between acne vulgaris and alterations in gut microbiota were identified. At the phylum level， the relative abundance of Bacteroidota exhibited a statistically significant elevation in the acne vulgaris cohort when compared with the healthy control group （P<0.01）， while Cyanobacteria was significantly lower in the acne group （P<0.01）. At the genus level， the top five different bacterial taxa in both groups were Bacteroides， Escherichia⁃Shigella， Klebsiella， Roseburia， and Parabacteroides. Among them， Bacteroides， Roseburia， and Parabacteroides were more abundant in acne patients. Linear discriminant analysis identified five biomarkers all belonging to the Bacteroidota phylum in the acne and control groups. These biomarkers belong to the phylum Bacteroidetes. ConclusionThere are significant differences in the composition of intestinal microbiota between acne patients and healthy people. Changes in the richness of specific bacterial genera may become new targets for the diagnosis and treatment of acne.

Objective To optimize the extraction, separation and purification process of Actinoside E. Methods Single factor experiment combined with orthogonal test was used to determine the optimal extraction process of Actinoside E using its content as an index. The extracts were separated and purified by optimizing the chromatographic conditions of macroporous resin, silica gel and ODS column. Results 25 times amount of 55% ethanol with heating reflux at 95℃ for one hour were used as the optimal extraction process of Actinoside E. The optimum separation and purification process was as follows: D101 macroporous resin column was eluted with 7 BV of 50% ethanol, silica gel column was eluted with 5 BV of ethyl acetate-ethanol（10∶1）and 50% methanol eluted fraction was purified repeatedly by ODS column to obtain Actinoside E. The transfer rate of Actinoside E in the whole process was 53.70%, the yield was 0.35%, and the purity was 99.9%. Conclusion The process is stable and viable, which can provide material foundation for the development and utilization of Actinoside E.

Metabolic dysfunction-associated fatty liver disease （MAFLD） has become one of the most prevalent chronic liver diseases worldwide， posing a serious challenge to public health. In this context， the integration of artificial intelligence （AI）， especially intelligent diagnosis and treatment and digital health interventions based on machine learning， can break through the limitations of traditional methods， realize efficient screening of multi-dimensional data such as key genes， biomarkers， and biochemical metabolites， and achieve revolutionary breakthroughs in risk prediction， subtype identification， and therapeutic effect assessment for MAFLD. This article systematically reviews the ground-breaking application of machine learning models in driving the innovation of clinical diagnosis and precise risk prediction of MAFLD， conducts a comprehensive comparative analysis of digital health practice cases of MAFLD in China and globally， and deeply analyzes their advantages and limitations in terms of research subjects， interventions， and management team. Studies have shown that the deep integration of digital health and long-term management of MAFLD is becoming the key engine driving the transformation of disease management modes towards an intelligent， individualized， and precise era， but there are various ethical and technical issues that need to be addressed urgently.

Background: and Purpose Live cell-based assays (LCBA) are increasingly used for serological antibody detection due to their ability to preserve antigen conformation, offering moderately higher sensitivity than fixed cell-based assays. However, the clinical necessity of prioritizing LCBA for the detection of aquaporin-4 immunoglobulin G (AQP4-IgG) in neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD) remains unclear, especially when compared to its established role in diagnosing myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein antibody-associated disease. Methods: We compared the performance of live cell-based assays using immunofluorescence (LCBA-IF) and fixed cell-based assays using immunofluorescence (FCBA-IF) in detecting AQP4-IgG in 90 cases of NMOSD meeting 2015 International Panel for Neuromyelitis Optica Diagnosis criteria, alongside 40 controls. Additionally, we further investigated the relationship between AQP4-IgG titers as measured by LCBA-IF and FCBA-IF and clinical parameters in NMOSD patients. Results: Results showed 96.9% agreement between LCBA-IF and FCBA-IF (Cohen’s κ=0.935), with a strong Spearman correlation (0.977, p<0.001). Both methods demonstrated 100% specificity, with LCBA-IF showing slightly higher sensitivity compared to FCBA-IF. Within LCBAIF-tested groups, statistically significant differences in annualized relapse rates were observed across all pairwise comparisons (low-titer vs. moderate-titer, low-titer vs. high-titer, and moderate-titer vs. high-titer; all p<0.050). However, this association reached statistical significance in some FCBA-IF-tested groups. Conclusions Overall, there is a strong concordance between LCBA-IF and FCBA-IF in detecting AQP4-IgG, where LCBA-IF shows slightly higher sensitivity. Furthermore, there is a potential link between elevated AQP4-IgG titers and an increased risk of relapse, and this correlation may appear more pronounced when using LCBA-IF.

AIM: To compare objective visual quality and vision-related quality of life after implantation of different presbyopia-correcting intraocular lenses(PC-IOLs).METHODS:A prospective, non-randomized controlled study. Cataract patients who underwent phacoemulsification combined with PC-IOL implantation at Jinan Mingshui Eye Hospital from September 2023 and December 2025 were included. These patients were divided into three groups according to the type of IOL: the Trifocal IOL group,the Vivity group, and the Synergy group. Follow-ups were conducted at 1 wk,1 and 3 mo postoperatively. Uncorrected distance visual acuity(UDVA), uncorrected intermediate visual acuity(UIVA), and uncorrected near visual acuity(UNVA), objective scatter index(OSI), modulation transfer function cut off(MTF-cut off), and Strehl ratio(SR), as well as contrast visual acuity(CVA)at 100%, 20%, and 9% contrast were assessed. Postoperative defocus curves were plotted. Vision-related quality of life and spectacle independence were evaluated using questionnaires.RESULTS: This study included 101 cataract patients(101 eyes),aged 30-70(53.8±9.7)y,with 59 males and 42 females.The Trifocal group consisted of 33 patients(33 eyes), aged 30-71(51.7±11.3)y, with 21 males and 12 females; the Vivity group consisted of 37 patients(37 eyes), aged 36-71(54.2±9.0)y, with 18 males and 19 females; and the Synergy group consisted of 31 patients(31 eyes), aged 30-73(55.9±8.5)y, with 20 males and 11 females.No significant differences were observed among the three groups in UDVA or UIVA(all P>0.05). Significant differences were found in UNVA among groups(P<0.05). UDVA differed significantly across different time points(P<0.05), while there were no significant differences in UIVA and UNVA(all P>0.05). At 3 mo postoperatively, significant differences were found among the three groups in OSI, MTF -cut off, SR, and CVA at all contrast levels(all P<0.05). The defocus curve at postoperative 1 mo showed that the Trifocal group had a smooth and continuous profile from +1.0 D to -3.0 D, providing good distance, intermediate, and near vision. All groups demonstrated smooth transitions in the intermediate range(-1.0 D to -1.5 D), with LogMAR visual acuity better than 0.2. In the near range(-2.5 D to -3.5 D), the Trifocal and Synergy groups performed significantly better than the Vivity group. No significant differences were observed in VF-14 questionnaire scores among groups(P>0.05). For night driving(motorized or non-motorized), the Vivity group performed better than the Trifocal and Synergy groups. Spectacle independence rates were 92.3% in the Trifocal group, 54.1% in the Vivity group, and 80.0% in the Synergy group(P<0.05).CONCLUSION: All types of PC-IOLs can effectively improve postoperative full-range visual acuity in cataract patients. There are discrepancies in the objective visual quality between Trifocal IOLs and extended depth of focus(EDOF)IOLs. Some patients suffer from postoperative optical disturbances, which result in certain difficulties with night driving, although patients generally report favorable subjective visual perceptions.

Conclusion It is feasible for medical institutions to build independently controllable medical large models and incubate various applications based on these models, providing a reference pathway for artificial intelligence development in similar institutions.

BackgroundNon-suicidal self-injury （NSSI） in adolescents is a serious global public health issue. Self-stigma is identified as a key factor hindering adolescents from seeking professional psychological help， while only a few studies have dealt with the self-stigma in adolescents with mood disorder exhibiting NSSI behavior. ObjectiveTo investigate the influencing factors of self-stigma among adolescents with mood disorder who exhibit NSSI behavior， and to examine the chained mediation role of self-esteem and social avoidance/distress in the relationship between NSSI behavior and self-stigma， with the aim of providing references for the detection and intervention of self-stigma in such patients. MethodsA total of 220 consecutive adolescent patients with mood disorder who met "the International Classification of Diseases， Tenth Edition"（ICD-10） diagnostic criteria for depressive disorder or depressive episode of bipolar disorder and attended the Fourth People's Hospital of Wuhu from November 2022 to November 2023 were recruited. The Adolescent Non-suicidal Self-injury Assessment Questionnaire （ANSAQ）， Internalized Stigma of Mental Illness （ISMI） Scale， Self-Esteem Scale （SES）， and Social Avoidance/Distress Scale （SADS） were employed to assess the participants. Correlation among variables was evaluated using Pearson's correlation coefficient. Multivariate linear regression analysis was utilized to identify the factors influencing self-stigma among adolescent patients with mood disorder exhibiting NSSI. The proposed mediating hypotheses were tested using Model 6 in the SPSS Process macro （version 3.0）. ResultsValid responses were received from 204/220 （92.73%） participants， including 153 cases with NSSI and 51 cases without NSSI. The NSSI （vs. no NSSI） group reported significantly higher scores on ISMI and SADS （t=-5.187， -4.564， P<0.01）， and lower scores on SES （t=4.478， P<0.01）. In the NSSI group， the total score of ISMI demonstrated a positive correlation with the total score of SADS and the behavioral questionnaire score in ANSAQ （r=0.644， 0.316， P<0.01）， and a negative correlation with the total score of SES （r=-0.724， P<0.01）. Multivariate linear regression analysis revealed that NSSI severity （β=0.132， P<0.05） and social avoidance/distress （β=0.309， P<0.01） were found to be positive predictors of the self-stigma， whereas self-esteem （β=-0.493， P<0.01） was a significant negative predictor of the self-stigma. Additionally， self-esteem and social avoidance/distress partially mediated the relationship between NSSI and self-stigma， with a mediating effect of 0.237 （95% CI： 0.103~0.374）， which constituted 55.89% of the total effect. The mediating effect included two paths： NSSI behavior→self-esteem→self-stigma （effect size was 0.163， 95% CI： 0.069~0.273） and NSSI behavior→self-esteem→social avoidance/distress→self-stigma （effect size was 0.063， 95% CI： 0.020~0.119）. ConclusionThe severity of NSSI can affect self-stigma in adolescents with mood disorders either directly through mediating self-esteem or indirectly through the chained mediation path of self-esteem and social avoidance/distress.［Funded by Scientific Research Projects of Wuhu Fourth People's Hospital in 2000（number，kjxm202203）］

Objective To investigate the genetic characteristics of the VP1 region of Coxsackievirus A10 (CVA10) in Yunnan Province. Methods Fecal samples of suspected hand, foot and mouth disease (HFMD) were subjected to real-time fluorescent quantitative PCR for detection of enterovirus CVA10. Positive samples were subjected to VP1 gene sequence amplification and Sanger sequencing. Sequence splicing was performed with DNAstar7.1 Seqman software, and nucleotide sequence and amino acid site analysis were performed using Mega 6.0 software. Results The sequencing of VP1 gene of CVA10 obtained a sequence of 894 nucleotides, encoding 298 amino acids. Compared with the original strain, there were mainly three active amino acid mutation regions, 13-33, 141-142, and 283-285. The nucleotide difference rate between the Yunnan isolates and the reference strain ranged from 16.92% to 30.90%, and the amino acid difference rate ranged from 2.58% to 4.00%. C1 and C2 group nucleotide difference was 10.58%, and the amino acid difference rate was 1.80%. The VP1 150-176 region exhibited highly conserved characteristics. Six CVA10 strains and Sichuan strain MW178898 belonged to the C1 group of the C genotype. The other 14 CVA10 strains belonged to the C2 group. Conclusion VP1 gene mutation is active and CVA10 is an important pathogen of HFMD in Yunnan. C2 genotype of CVA10 is dominant in this study, and C1 and C2 have co-circulated in Yunnan. It is necessary to strengthen monitoring and develop multivalent vaccines containing CVA10 epidemic genotype.

Objective To investigate the safety and efficacy of selective hepatic inflow occlusion in laparoscopic hepatectomy.Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of 64 patients who underwent laparoscopic hepatectomy.Based on the different methods of hepatic in-flow occlusion,the patients were divided into Pringle occlusion group with 31 patients(using inter-mittent Pringle's maneuver)and selective occlusion group with 33 patients(using selective hepatic inflow occlusion).The general,intraoperative,and postoperative data were compared between the two groups.Results There were no statistically significant differences in general data,operative time,intraoperative blood loss,central venous pressure,and mean arterial pressure between the two groups(P＞0.05).On postoperative day 3,the levels of alanine aminotransferase(ALT),aspartate aminotransferase(AST),and total bilirubin(TBil)in the selective occlusion group were lower than those in the Pringle occlusion group(P＜0.05).There were no statistically significant differences in length of hospital stay and postoperative complication rates between the two groups(P＞0.05).Sub-group analysis showed that in patients undergoing laparoscopic hemihepatectomy,the AST and ALT levels on postoperative day 3 were lower in the selective occlusion group than in the Pringle occlusion group(P＜0.05).In patients undergoing laparoscopic liver segmentectomy,the TBil level on postop-erative day 3 was lower in the selective occlusion group than in the Pringle occlusion group(P＜0.05),but there were no statistically significant differences in AST and ALT levels between the two groups(P＞0.05).Conclusion Selective hepatic inflow occlusion demonstrates good safety and efficacy in laparoscopic hepatectomy.It can significantly reduce postoperative liver function damage,espe-cially in patients undergoing hemihepatectomy.
