"Weibing" is a fundamental concept in traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), representing a transitional state characterized by diminished self-regulatory abilities without overt physiological or social dysfunction. This perspective delves into the biological foundations and quantifiable markers of Weibing, aiming to establish a research framework for early disease intervention. Here, we propose the "Health Quadrant Classification" system, which divides the state of human body into health, sub-health, disease-susceptible state, and disease. We suggest the disease-susceptible stage emerges as a pivotal point for TCM interventions. To understand the intrinsic dynamics of this state, we propose laboratory and clinical studies utilizing time-series experiments and stress-induced disease susceptibility models. At the molecular level, bio-omics technologies and bioinformatics approaches are highlighted for uncovering intricate changes during disease progression. Furthermore, we discuss the application of mathematical models and artificial intelligence in developing early warning systems to anticipate and avert the transition from health to disease. This approach resonates with TCM's preventive philosophy, emphasizing proactive health maintenance and disease prevention. Ultimately, our perspective underscores the significance of integrating modern scientific methodologies with TCM principles to propel Weibing research and early intervention strategies forward.

Paraplegia caused by spinal cord injury is a serious neurological complication, for which surgery is currently the main treatment method. Due to different surgical approaches, patients are usually expected to maintain a passive prone position for a long time or switch between the supine and prone positions. Affected by multiple factors such as neurogenic sensory disorders, pathological changes in muscle tone and operative duration, the risk of intraoperative acquired pressure injury (IAPI) is significantly increased. Current clinical prevention strategies for IAPI in these patients predominantly focus on localized pressure relief during positioning, lacking systematic, standardized comprehensive prevention protocols or evidence-based guidelines. To address it, Department of Nursing, Orthopedics Branch, China International Exchange and Promotive Association for Medical and Health Care, Spinal Trauma Professional Committee, Orthopedics Branch, Chinese Medical Doctor Association, Nursing Group of Spine and Spinal Cord Professional Committee of Chinese Association of Rehabilitation Medicine organized experts in relevant fields to formulate Guideline for the prevention of intraoperative acquired pressure injury in paraplegic patients with spinal cord injury ( version 2025), based on evidence-based medical evidence and latest research results and clinical practice at home and abroad. Eleven recommendations were put forward from the aspects of preoperative risk assessment, intraoperative prevention strategies, postoperative handover and monitoring, and supportive mechanisms for IAPI prevention, aiming to standardize the prevention measures and management strategies of IAPI in paraplegic patients with spinal cord injury and accelerate the recovery of patients and improve the therapeutic effect.

Objective:To investigate the differences in clinical characteristics and antibiotic resistance of neonatal sepsis(NS)caused by different Gram-staining pathogens.Methods:A retrospective study was conducted on confirmed NS cases admitted to the Neonatal Ward of the Pediatric Department at The First Affiliated Hospital of Dali University,from June 1,2014,to May 31,2024.Patients were divided into Gram-positive and Gram-negative groups based on blood or cerebrospinal fluid(CSF)culture results.Clinical characteristics,pathogen distribution,and antibiotic resistance were compared between the two groups.Results:A total of 98 cases were included,with 81 in the Gram-positive group and 17 in the Gram-negative group.Multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that NS cases with a high neutrophil percentage( OR=0.933,95% CI:0.899-0.969)or hemorrhagic symptoms/signs( OR=0.059,95% CI:0.008-0.458)were less likely to have Gram-positive pathogens detected in blood or CSF cultures( P<0.05).Common Gram-positive pathogens included Staphylococcus epidermidis with 35 strains(33.65%)and Staphylococcus hominis with 22 strains(21.15%).The predominant Gram-negative pathogen was Escherichia coli with 14 strains(13.46%).Gram-positive pathogens exhibited high resistance to oxacillin(91.30%),erythromycin(90.91%),and penicillin G(90.00%),but low resistance to tigecycline(0),linezolid(0),and vancomycin(0).Gram-negative pathogens showed high resistance to ampicillin(92.31%),cefazolin(90.00%),and ampicillin/sulbactam(75.00%),but low resistance to amikacin(6.25%),latamoxef(0),and ertapenem(0).The incidence of concurrent purulent meningitis was lower in the Gram-positive group than in the Gram-negative group(9.88% vs.47.06%, χ2=11.628, P<0.05),and there was significant difference. Conclusion:NS cases with high neutrophil percentages or hemorrhagic symptoms/signs are less likely to be caused by Gram-positive pathogens.Staphylococcus epidermidis and Staphylococcus hominis are common Gram-positive pathogens,while Escherichia coli is the predominant Gram-negative pathogen in NS.Both Gram-positive and Gram-negative pathogens exhibit resistance to specific antibiotics.NS caused by Gram-positive pathogens is less likely to be complicated by purulent meningitis compared to those caused by Gram-negative pathogens.

This paper systematically analyzed the ancient monographs of acupuncture and moxibustion and comprehensive medical books from pre-Qin to 1911, and extracted the data according to the etiology and pathogenesis, treatment principles and methods, acupoint selection, needling and moxibustion, and taboos of needling and moxibustion. The pathogenesis of migraine in ancient books and documents is summarized as "the causes are diverse, and phlegm-dampness is the majority". For treatment, the features include "needling has a sequence, and the root and the branch should be treated separately" and "focusing on tonifying deficiency and drain excess". It is also obtained of the rich ideas of acupoints selection, extensive application records of moxibustion, unique application of bloodletting therapy and clear explanation of acupuncture and moxibustion taboos. All mentioned above is expected to enrich the ideas and methods of modern migraine treatment and improve the clinical effects.

Chinese Journal of School Health 2024;45(6):887-890
Objective:
To understand the current development status and challenges of college hospitals in Shandong and to seek scientific countermeasures, so as to promote the development of college hospitals.
Methods:
A total of 178 college hospitals in Shandong Province were surveyed by a questionnaire in December 2022. Additionally, 30 university hospital directors were selected for field investigations and telephone interviews by direct selection method. The survey covered aspects such as management and operation, human resources, departmental staffing and hospital functions.
Results:
About 65.73% of college hospitals were affiliated with the logistics department of their respective colleges. Tier 1 hospital accounted for 28.09% of the total. Personnel shortage in university hospitals was evident, and there were 109(61.24%) hospitals where the number of nonpermanent staff exceeded that of permanent staff. About 143 university hospitals (80.34%) had requirements for the promotion of professional and technical personnel. A total of 102(57.30%) college hospitals had incomplete departmental configurations. A survey of 30 college hospitals showed that 7 schools set up health professionals with a ratio of 600∶1. The number of people aged 40 and above was the highest, accounting for 53.12%; and the professional titles were mainly junior and intermediate, accounting for 83.95%. The department settings mainly included internal medicine (96.67%), preventive health care (63.33%) and surgery (60.00%). A total of 12 schools offered public health education courses.
Conclusions
There are deficiencies in the management and operation, hardware facilities, personnel department allocation and functional performance of college hospitals in Shandong Province. It is necessary to clarify the functional positioning of the college hospitals, improve both software and hardware facilities, strengthen talent construction, innovate health education, in order to effectively improve the service level of college hospitals.

Objective:
To explore the relationship between junior high school students lifestyles and 20 m shuttle run test (20 m SRT) performance, so as to provide a theoretical basis for promoting a healthy lifestyle among junior high school students.
Methods:
From April to June 2021, a total of 2 397 junior high school students aged 12-17 years in Yushan, Wuyuan, Hengfeng and Yugan counties of Shangrao City, Jiangxi Province were selected by random cluster stratified sampling. A questionnaire survey and 20 m SRT test were conducted. Logistic regression analysis was used to explore the association between lifestyles and 20 m SRT scores.
Results:
The passing rate of 20 m SRT for middle school students was 83.3%. Chi square test results showed that there were statistically significant differences between gender, grade, household registration, type of schooling, father s education and the 20 m SRT scores of junior high school students ( χ 2=25.26, 25.04, 6.99, 7.96, 16.22, P <0.05). Significant differences were found in 20 m SRT scores between vigorous and moderate physical activity and breakfast behavior in the last seven days ( χ 2=6.78, 6.29, 9.13, P < 0.05). The results of Logistic regression analysis showed that after controlling for confounding factors, "no vigorous physical activity in the last seven days" was positively correlated with the lower performance of 20 m SRT ( OR =1.31, 95% CI =1.03- 1.67 , P < 0.05). "Breakfast skipping" was positively correlated with 20 m SRT lower performance (frequent eating, OR =1.37, 95% CI = 1.09 -1.73, P <0.01).
Conclusion
Vigorous physical activity and regular breakfast consumption behavior are associated with higher performance 20 m SRT of junior high school students. Schools should encourage students to develop a habit of actively exercising and consuming breakfast regularly in order to ensure the healthy development of cardiopulmonary endurance levels.
