ObjectiveTo analyze the epidemiological and etiological characteristics of a cluster of human metapneumovirus (HMPV) infection in a kindergarten in Gongshu District of Hangzhou City in May 2024, and to provide reference for the prevention and control of similar outbreaks. MethodsAn on-site investigation was conducted using an epidemiological case investigation form. Throat swab specimens collected from cases were screened for 13 respiratory pathogens using real-time fluorescent polymerase chain reaction (PCR). For HMPV nucleic acid positive specimens, the F gene of HMPV was used as the target gene for amplification and sequencing. The sequencing results were then compared with sequences in GenBank database to determine the virus subtypes and perform phylogenetic analyses. ResultsThe outbreak occurred in a kindergarter junior class with a total of 28 preschoolers and 3 teachers and childcare workers. A total of 11 cases (10 preschoolers and 1 teacher) were identified, including 8 male cases and 3 female cases. Clinical manifestations included fever in all 11 cases (100.00%), cough in 8 cases (72.72%), catarrhal symptoms in 4 cases (36.36%), and headache in 3 cases (27.27%). All symptoms were mild, and no severe cases were observed. A total of 11 throat swab samples were collected. Real-time fluorescent PCR test results showed that 3 samples were positive for HMPV nucleic acid, 2 samples were positive for both HMPV and Streptococcus pneumoniae, and 1 sample was positive for both HMPV and rhinovirus. The sequences of the 6 HMPV nucleic acid positive specimens were amplified and analyzed using specific primers, and all were determined to be HMPV subtype A2b. The F gene fragment sequence showed the highest similarity to PV081665.1/Brazil/2024 (99.65%), and also exhibited high similarity to PP683455.1/Indonesia/2021 (99.48%), PV016275.1/Beijing/2024 (99.31%), and PV052230.1/USA/2024 (99.13%). ConclusionThis cluster of acute respiratory tract infection was caused by HMPV subtype A2b, with co-infection of rhinovirus and Streptococcus pneumoniae. The F gene fragment sequences of the HMPV in this outbreak were highly homologous to those of the A2b strains isolated from Brazil, Beijing, Indonesia, and the the United States.

Basilar artery pseudoaneurysm (BAPA) is an extremely rare yet life-threatening intracranial vascular lesion, characterized by insidious clinical onset and a remarkably high mortality risk upon rupture. In this case report, we describe a patient who was admitted to our department with spontaneous subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). Emergency digital subtraction angiography performed on admission revealed no vascular anomalies. One month after SAH onset, a comprehensive multimodal imaging evaluation ultimately confirmed the diagnosis of BAPA. Given the technical challenges in conventional management for this specific case, Traxcess-14 microguidewire-assisted endovascular electrocoagulation was performed as a last-resort therapy. Finally, follow-up imaging at 6 months demonstrated complete resolution of BAPA. Thus, we propose that Traxcess-14 microguidewire-assisted endovascular electrocoagulation may serve as a potential salvage treatment for highly selective BAPA cases in which conventional therapeutic approaches are unfeasible or have failed.

Objective To investigate the predictive value of Mayo adhesion probability(MAP)score for intraoperative bleeding during microchannel percutaneous nephrolithotomy(PCNL), so as to provide reference for optimizing surgical decisions.Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of 86 patients who underwent microchannel PCNL at our hospital during Jan.2018 and Jul. 2025.Patients were divided into two groups based on preoperative CT-derived MAP scores:MAP score＜3 group(n=45)and MAP score≥3 group(n=41).Baseline characteristics, surgical parameters and outcome measures were compared between the two groups.Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were performed to identify risk factors for intraoperative bleeding(defined as a postoperative hemoglobin decrease of ≥20 g/L). Results The incidence of intraoperative bleeding was significantly higher in the MAP score≥3 group than in the MAP score＜3 group(43.9% vs.20.0%, P=0.017).Multivariate analysis identified MAP score ≥3(OR=3.045, 95%CI:1.125-9.547, P=0.019), use of anticoagulant medication(OR=3.016, 95%CI:1.251-9.257, P=0.020), establishment of multiple tracts(OR=5.445, 95%CI:1.798-17.578, P=0.003), and operation time ≥90 minutes(OR=5.697, 95%CI:1.890-13.632, P=0.001)as risk factors for intraoperative bleeding.The area under the curve for the MAP score in predicting intraoperative bleeding was 0.704.Conclusion The MAP score is an independent risk factor for intraoperative bleeding during microchannel PCNL.Preoperative assessment can help identify high-risk patients and provide a basis for optimizing surgical decision-making.

ObjectiveBased on modern analytical techniques and a depressed mouse model established by chronic unpredictable mild stress（CUMS）， to evaluate the quality marker（Q-Marker） and pharmacodynamic difference of Baihe Dihuangtang prepared by different processes. MethodsHigh performance liquid chromatography（HPLC） was used to establish the characteristic profiles of Baihe Dihuangtang， and determine the content of Q-Marker in the samples prepared by ancient and modern processes. Seventy C57BL/6J mice were randomly divided into the normal group， model group， fluoxetine group（3 mg·kg^-1）， low and high dose groups of ancient process（6.5， 26 g·kg^-1）， and low and high dose groups of modern process（6.5， 26 g·kg^-1）， with 10 mice in each group. Except for the normal group， CUMS was used to induce depression in mice from the other groups for 28 d. After successful modeling， administration groups were given the corresponding drugs by gavage every day， and the normal and model groups were given an equal volume of pure water by gavage for 21 consecutive days. Change in body mass of mice was recorded， tail suspension test and open field test were used to evaluate the depressive behavior of mice， and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay（ELISA） was employed to determine the contents of tumor necrosis factor-α（TNF-α）， interleukin（IL）-1β and IL-6 in serum. ResultsCharacteristic profiles of Baihe Dihuangtang prepared by the two processes were established， the similarity between the two was 0.951， and 8 characteristic peaks were recognized with the reference peak of regaloside A. The results of quantitative analysis showed that the Q-Marker content was similar in Baihe Dihuangtang prepared by ancient and modern processes. The results of pharmacodynamics showed that， compared with the normal group， the model group showed increased immobility time in the tail suspension test， reduced total movement distance in the open field test， and elevated IL-1β， IL-6 and TNF-α levels in the serum（P<0.01）. Compared with the model group， the behavioral indicators of mice in the Baihe Dihuangtang treatment group were significantly improved in terms of tail suspension time and open field exercise， and the levels of IL-1β， IL-6 and TNF-α in serum were significantly reduced（P<0.05， P<0.01）. Baihe Dihuangtang prepared by the two processes both had antidepressant effects， and the difference between the two was not statistically significant in improving depressive symptoms. ConclusionQ-Marker of Baihe Dihuangtang prepared by modern and ancient methods are equivalent in content， and the pharmacological effects are consistent， indicating that dried Lilii Bulbus can replace fresh products in the preparation of Baihe Dihuangtang. This study provides a scientific basis for the development of new drugs of Baihe Dihuangtang and a reference for its rational application and clinical use.

Generative artificial intelligence (GAI) represents a prominent research focus in medicine, with medical education being a key application area. GAI demonstrates potential to enhance residency training efficacy through personalized instruction, automated assessment item generation, question bank updating, and intelligent scoring systems. However, current limitations exist regarding output accuracy and content consistency. To address these constraints, strategic measures are required: continuous GAI model refinement, development of standardized usage guidelines, enhanced data quality control, and implementation of human verification protocols for generated content. Concurrently, residents should proactively acquire GAI utilization skills to strengthen the practical application of theoretical knowledge. With these advancements, GAI is anticipated to evolve into a valuable asset for improving the efficiency and quality of residency training programs.

Objective: To investigate the knowledge, attitude and practice of infectious disease prevention and control among primary and middle school students in Gongshu District, Hangzhou City, so as to provide the evidence for implementing health education on infectious disease prevention and control in schools. Methods: Students from 12 primary and middle schools in Gongshu District were selected using a random cluster sampling method. Basic information, knowledge, attitude and practice of infectious disease middle and control were collected through questionnaire surveys. Influencing factors of practice of primary and middle school students' infectious disease prevention and control were analyzed using multivariable logistic regression model. Results: A total of 3 439 primary and middle school students were surveyed, including 1 717 boys (49.93%) and 1 722 girls (50.07%). There were 1 237 primary school students (35.97%), 1 092 junior high school students (31.75%), and 1 110 senior high school students (32.28%). The awareness of infectious disease prevention and control knowledge, the percentage of attitude towards infectious disease prevention and control, and the percentage of practice towards infectious disease prevention and control were 73.22%, 96.83%, and 60.19%, respectively. Multivariable logistic regression analysis revealed that girls (OR=1.460, 95%CI: 1.265-1.685), those who had received health education on infectious disease prevention (OR=2.088, 95%CI: 1.656-2.632), those with adequate knowledge (OR=2.129, 95%CI: 1.816-2.496), and those with positive attitude (OR=4.320, 95%CI: 2.683-6.957) were more likely to form practice for the prevention and control of infectious disease. Conversely, senior high school students (OR=0.667, 95%CI: 0.561-0.794) and those with poor self-rated health status (OR=0.678, 95%CI: 0.495-0.930) were less likely to form practice for the prevention and control of infectious disease. Conclusions The attitude towards infectious disease prevention and control among primary and middle school students in Gongshu District is relatively high, but their awareness and practice are low. It is recommended to strengthen health education on infectious disease prevention and control knowledge in a targeted manner to promote the formation of prevention and control practice among senior high school students and primary and middle school students who self-assess their health status as poor.

Objective To investigate the effect of tirofiban combined with oxiracetam on acute anterior circulation progressive cerebral infarction.Methods A total of 171 patients with acute anteri-or circulation progressive cerebral infarction from October 2022 to January 2024 were enrolled and ran-domly divided into three groups using a random number table.The control group of 57 patients re-ceived conventional treatment,the observation group A received tirofiban in addition to conventional treatment,and the observation group B received oxiracetam on the basis of observation group A's treat-ment.The effectiveness indicators[including the rates of neurological improvement and neurological deterioration at 14 days after treatment,the rate of good prognosis and modified Rankin Scale(MRS)scores at 90 days after treatment,as well as the National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale(NIHSS)scores at 7 and 14 days after treatment and their differences from baseline],cognitive function[as-sessed using the Montreal Cognitive Assessment(MOCA)],and safety indicators(incidence rates of symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage,fatal intracranial hemorrhage,and mortality at 90 days after treat-ment)were compared among the three groups.Results There were no statistically significant differ-ences in the rates of neurological improvement and neurological deterioration at 14 days after treatment,the rate of good prognosis,and MRS scores at 90 days after treatment among the three groups(P＞0.05).There were statistically significant differences in NIHSS scores between baseline and 7 and 14 days after treatment in all three groups(P＜0.05),and the differences in NIHSS scores from baseline at the above time points were higher in observation group B than in observation group A and the control group(P＜0.05).There were no statistically significant differences in MOCA scores among the three groups before treatment(P＞0.05);however,the MOCA scores in the observation group B were higher than those in observation group A and the control group at 14,30,and 90 days after treatment(P＜0.05).There were no statistically significant differences in the incidence rates of symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage,fatal intracranial hemorrhage,and mortality at 90 days after treatment among the three groups(P＞0.05).Conclusion Tirofiban combined with oxiracetam can improve cognitive function in patients with acute anterior circulation progressive cerebral infarc-tion without increasing the risk of hemorrhage,and has better prognosis.
