Immunoglobulin A (IgA) nephropathy is a globally prevalent type of primary glomerulonephritis, characterized by complex symptoms and diverse clinical manifestations. The internationally recognized " multiple hit hypothesis" explains the systemic immune disease features of IgA nephropathy. However, current treatment strategies primarily focus on local pathological changes, inadequately addressing its complex systemic mechanisms. The " qi cycle in round" theory, an integral concept of the academic thought of HUANG Yuanyu, a prominent medical expert from the Qing Dynasty, offers a concise and insightful framework for understanding complex pathologies. For example, this theory provides valuable insights for elucidating the pathogenesis of IgA nephropathy and guiding its clinical management by simplifying intricate systemic processes. This study applies the " qi cycle in round" theory to postulate that patients with IgA nephropathy experience disrupted qi flow owing to spleen-stomach qi deficiency and dampness-heat accumulation. These imbalances manifest as internal symptoms, such as diarrhea; external vulnerability to illness; upper body symptoms, like sore throat; and lower body symptoms, such as hematuria and proteinuria. Pathologically, the condition is characterized by immune complex deposition. This article also emphasizes strategies that prioritize tonifying spleen-stomach qi to enhance the pivotal functions of transportation and transformation. Regulating qi and relieving stagnation are emphasized to harmonize ascending and descending dynamics. Additionally, eliminating turbidity and unblocking collaterals are highlighted to promote qi transformation. These approaches aim to restore the harmonious operation of organ qi dynamics and harmonious qi transformation functions. This study aims to provide a reference for syndrome differentiation and IgA nephropathy treatment using traditional Chinese medicine based on the " qi cycle in round" theory.

OBJECTIVE To establish drug utilization evaluation (DUE) criteria for pyrotinib to promote its appropriate application in clinical practice. METHODS Based on the label of Pyrotinib maleate tablets, with relevant guiding principles and diagnostic and treatment guidelines as the evaluation basis, DUE criteria for pyrotinib were determined through the Delphi method. Attribute hierarchical model (AHM) and entropy weight method (EWM) were used to combine and assign weights to each indicator within the DUE criteria. Additionally, the weighted technique for order preference by similarity to an ideal solution (TOPSIS) method was applied to perform rationality evaluation of medication in archived medical records from Hainan Provincial Tumor Hospital and Hainan Western Central Hospital regarding the use of pyrotinib from November 2019 to November 2023. RESULTS The established DUE criteria for pyrotinib included 4 primary indicators (prescription authority, indications for use, medication process, and medication outcomes) and 11 secondary indicators. The secondary indicators with higher weights were the route of administration and dosage (0.257) and indications in the label (0.241). Among the 88 archived cases included, there were 28 cases of inappropriate medication (31.82%), 43 cases of generally appropriate medication (48.86%), and 17 cases of appropriate medication (19.32%). The main issues related to inappropriate medication involved off-label use (42.05%) and inappropriate routes of administration and dosage (43.18%). CONCLUSIONS DUE criteria for pyrotinib established using the AHM-EWM-weighted TOPSIS method is highly operational and results in quantifiable evaluation outcomes. The overall rationality of the use of pyrotinib in the above hospitals remains to be improved, and there are some issues, like the off-label use,and inappropriate routes of administration and dosage being liaoyylyy@163.com unreasonable.

Objective:
To investigate the correlation between social jetlag and psychological behavior in upper primary school students,so as to provide reference for sleep health promotion in primary school students.
Methods:
From April to June 2024, a survey was conducted among 4 341 fourth and fifth grade students from 9 public primary schools in a district in Beijing. Sleep patterns were assessed using a self designed questionnaire, while psychological behavior was evaluated using the Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire (SDQ)(parent version). A generalized estimating equation (GEE) model was used to examine the association between different levels of social jetlag and psychological behavior problem scores in primary school students.
Results:
The proportions of students with social jetlag of <1.0, 1.0-<2.0, and ≥2.0 h were 57.6%, 30.6%, and 11.8%, respectively. The GEE model analysis found that after adjusting for covariates, compared with primary school students with social jetlag of <1.0 h, those with 1.0 -<2.0 and ≥2.0 h had higher scores for internalizing behavior problems [ β (95% CI ) =0.23(0.05-0.41),0.28(0.02-0.54), P < 0.01]. Primary school students with ≥2.0 h of social jetlag had higher scores for externalizing behavior problems [ β (95% CI )=0.42 (0.13-0.71), P <0.01]. Among boys and primary school students with an average nighttime sleep duration of ≥9 h, comparied with social jetlag of <1.0 h,those with sucial jetlag 1.0-<2.0 h had higher scores on internalizing and externalizing behavior problems[ β (95% CI )=0.32(0.07-0.56),0.51 (0.11-0.90), 0.26 (0.06-0.46),0.58 (0.25-0.91), P <0.05].
Conclusions
Greater social jetlag may be a risk factor for internalizing and externalizing behavior problems in upper primary school students. Reducing social jetlag may help decrease the occurrence of psychological behavior problems in primary school students.

Objective:
To explore the association of screening myopia and sitting posture habits as well as screen viewing distance among primary school students, providing a scientific basis for myopia prevention and intervention among primary school students.
Methods:
From April to June 2024, a convenient sampling method was used to enroll 1 394 fourth grade students from four primary schools in a district of Beijing for vision examinations and questionnaire surveys. Logistic regression models were employed to analyze the relationship of screening myopia detection and sitting posture habits as well as viewing distance.
Results:
The screening myopia prevalence among primary school students was 63.8%. About 13.1% of students self reported poor sitting posture, and 47.1% selfreported a viewing distance of ≤20 cm. After adjusting for covariates including age, gender, school, sleep quality, parental myopia status, physical fitness level, daily high intensity physical activity, weekend outdoor activity time and types of after school services, Logistic regression analysis showed that students with poor sitting posture were more likely to have screening myopia than those with normal sitting posture ( OR =1.73,95% CI =1.03-2.92); students with a viewing distance of ≤20 cm were more likely to have screening myopia than those with a viewing distance of >20 cm( OR =1.32, 95% CI =1.02-1.71)( P <0.05). The association between sitting posture and screening myopia was more significant among boys( OR =2.00, 95% CI =1.03-3.88, P < 0.05 ). A multiplicative interaction was observed between sitting posture and viewing distance. Compared to primary school students with normal posture and a viewing distance of >20 cm, those with poor posture and a viewing distance of >20 cm were more likely to have screening myopia ( OR =1.82, 95% CI =1.12-2.96, P <0.05).
Conclusions
Both sitting posture habits and screen viewing distance are related to screening myopia in primary school students. Poor sitting posture poses a higher risk than screen distance, and the two factors exhibit an interactive effect on myopia risk.

Objective:To explore the effects of childhood trauma and its subtypes on the severity of depression in patients with depression, and the mediating role of coping style.Methods:The self-administered general information questionnaire, Hamilton depression scale(HAMD), the Chinese version of childhood trauma questionnaire, and trait coping style questionnaire were used to survey 87 patients with depression from October 2020 to August 2022.SPSS 26.0 was used for descriptive and correlation analyses, AMOS 24.0 statistical software was used for structural equation modelling, PROCESS 4.1 macro program was used for mediating effect analysis, and Bootstrap method was used for mediating effect testing.Results:(1)The HAMD score of depressed patients was (33.32 ± 8.18), the total childhood trauma score was (40(34, 52)), with the subscale scores of emotional abuse(8(6, 12)), physical abuse(5(5, 6)), sexual abuse(5(5, 6)), emotional neglect(12(9, 17)), physical neglect(8(6, 10)), respectively.The score of positive coping style was (25(19, 31)), and negative coping style was (35(30, 37)).The HAMD score was positively correlated with emotional abuse, emotional neglect, physical neglect, total childhood trauma score, and negative coping style ( r=0.31-0.56, all P<0.01), and negatively correlated with positive coping style ( r=-0.35, P<0.01). (2) Positive coping style had no mediating effect between childhood trauma, emotional abuse, affective neglect subtypes and the severity of depression. The negative coping style played partial mediating roles between childhood trauma, emotional abuse, emotional neglect subtypes and the severity of depression, accounting for 23.24% (0.135/0.581), 33.94% (0.299/0.881) and 23.62% (0.227/0.961) of the total effect, respectively. Conclusion:Childhood trauma and its subtypes of emotional abuse and emotional neglect can not only directly but also indirectly through negative coping styles affect the severity of depression in depressed patients.
