Objective To analyze the epidemiological characteristics of hand, foot, and mouth disease (HFMD) in Shanxi Province from 2012 to 2024, and predict the incidence trend for 2025, and to provide a scientific basis for the formulation of prevention and control strategies. Methods Based on the surveillance data of HFMD in Shanxi Province from 2012 to 2024, the spatial and temporal distribution characteristics and time trends of the disease were analyzed. The ARIMA model was constructed and used to predict the incidence trend in 2025. Results From 2012 to 2024, a total of 254 028 HFMD cases were reported in Shanxi Province, with an average annual incidence rate of 54.17 per 100 000 population, a severe case rate of 0.56%, and a case fatality rate (CFR) of 12.60 per 100 000 population. Joinpoint regression analysis showed that the incidence rate, severe case rate, mortality rate, and case fatality rate all presented a downward trend. The epidemic exhibited obvious seasonal distribution characteristics, with the peak period from April to November, and two incidence peaks in June-July and October-November. The male-to-female incidence ratio was 1.41:1. Children aged 1-5 years accounted for 89.24% of the total cases, among which scattered children (58.48%) and nursery children (33.54%) were the high-risk groups. Linfen City (96.06 /100 000) and Taiyuan City (88.54 /100 000) had relatively high incidence rates. After 2017, the proportion of enterovirus A71 (EV-A71) decreased, while coxsackievirus A16 (Cox-A16) and other enteroviruses became the main epidemic strains. The ARIMA(1,0,1)(0,1,1)₁₂ model predicted that the incidence of HFMD in 2025 would remain at the level of 2023-2024, and the dual-peak characteristic would continue. Conclusion From 2012 to 2024, the overall HFMD epidemic in Shanxi Province generally shows a significant downward trend. The high-risk population includes scattered children and nursery children under 5 years old, with high-incidence areas concentrated in the central and southern regions, requiring focused attention. The seasonal ARIMA model can effectively fit the evolutionary trend of HFMD incidence in Shanxi Province and possesses short-term predictive capability.

Stroke is the leading cause of death and disability among adults in China， and its common complications include digestive system abnormalities， cognitive impairment， depression， stroke-associated pneumonia， and hemiplegia. The combination of traditional Chinese and Western medicine has great potential in treating post-stroke complications. Xinglou Chengqitang （XLCQT） is a representative prescription of alleviating the disease in the upper part by treating the lower part. It has definite therapeutic effect and high safety. Clinically， XLCQT is often used to treat stroke and its complications. However， the quantity and quality of clinical trials of XLCQT in treating post-stroke complications need to be improved. Additionally， since the basic research is weak， the material basis and multi-target mechanism for the efficacy of this prescription are unknown. This article reviews XLCQT in terms of the pharmacodynamic basis， medicinal properties， safety evaluation， and progress in clinical research and mechanisms in treating post-stroke complications. This article summarizes 22 key active ingredients of XLCQT in treating acute stroke complicated with syndrome of phlegm heat and fu-organ excess. Among these key active ingredients， resveratrol， kaempferol， luteolin， chrysoeriol， apigenin， （+）-catechin， and adenosine have good pharmacokinetic properties and high bioavailability. The mechanisms of XLCQT in treating post-stroke complications are complex， including inflammatory response， brain-gut axis， hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal （HPA） axis， intestinal flora， neurotrophic factors， autophagy， oxidative stress， and free radical damage. This review helps to deeply understand the pharmacodynamic basis and mechanisms of XLCQT in treating post-stroke complications and provides a theoretical basis for the clinical application of XLCQT against post-stroke complications and the development of drugs.

OBJECTIVE To analyze the development history， current status， and major challenges of central （cloud） pharmacies within China’s close-knit county-level medical communities， and to provide references for improving the overall effectiveness of the primary-level pharmaceutical supply and support system.METHODS Policy documents and practical case data related to central （cloud） pharmacies in county-level medical communities from 31 provinces （autonomous regions and municipalities） in China were collected. A qualitative approach combining policy text analysis and comparative case analysis was employed to longitudinally trace and cross-sectionally compare the development history and current status of central （cloud） pharmacies， identify existing problems， and propose targeted recommendations. RESULTS &CONCLUSIONS The development of central （cloud） pharmacies in China has undergone three stages： initial exploration， pilot expansion and mechanism deepening， and high-level promotion with local responses. While adhering to national policy directives， various regions have conducted diverse explorations in organizational and legal forms， management models， and institutional frameworks. However， several challenges remain， including insufficient policy guidance， an imperfect mechanism for drug coordination and supply security， weaknesses in hardware infrastructure and information technology development， and the need to strengthen statistical monitoring and outcome evaluation systems. It is recommended that the construction of central （cloud） pharmacies should be oriented toward achieving their fundamental functions， improve the institutional framework， adopt differentiated construction models tailored to local conditions， enhance the coordinated drug supply and support system， strengthen information technology infrastructure and professional capacity building， unify evaluation standards， and improve performance assessment mechanisms， so as to elevate the overall effectiveness of the primary-level pharmaceutical supply and support system.

Objective To investigate the risk factors for ICU-acquired weakness (ICU-AW) in patients with sepsis, and to construct a nomogram prediction model. Methods A total of 360 patients with sepsis admitted from January 2020 to December 2025 were enrolled as study subjects. The risk factors for ICU-AW were identified by logistic regression analysis. A nomogram prediction model was constructed, and the model was validated. Results Multivariate logistic regression analysis indicated that age, APACHE II score, duration of mechanical ventilation, duration of immobilization, duration of sedation, and NLR were risk factors for the occurrence of ICU-AW (P<0.05), while ALB was a protective factor (P<0.05). A nomogram model was constructed based on these seven variables. After validation via Bootstrap resampling, ROC curve showed an AUC of 0.949 (0.929–0.969) and a corrected AUC of 0.942 (0.940–0.948), indicating good discrimination degree of the model. Hosmer-Lemeshow test for calibration curve revealed a chi-square value of 10.188 (P=0.252), suggesting that the predicted value of fitting was generally consistent with the actual value. Decision curve analysis demonstrated that when the threshold was in the range of 0.05–0.9, the model had a good net benefit. Conclusion The nomogram prediction model for sepsis ICU-AW based on seven indicators including age, APACHE II score, NLR, ALB, and the durations of mechanical ventilation, immobilization, and sedation exhibits good predictive efficiency and stability. This nomogram prediction model is helpful for the clinical rapid screening of ICU-AW high-risk groups in patients with sepsis, and meets clinical needs for early warning and precise prevention and control.

It is proposed that although allergic rhinitis manifests primarily in the nasal orifices， its root lies in deficiency of the lung and spleen and insecurity of the lung defensive qi， while deficiency of healthy qi with latent pathogen， triggering by external stimuli， and constraint of defensive yang constitute the key pathogenesis. The onset of disease is not caused solely by newly contracted external pathogens. Rather， on the basis of insecurity of the lung-defense qi， external stimuli such as wind-cold and abnormal qi， dust mites， pollen， and sudden climatic changes， activate the latent pathogen， resulting in constraint of defensive yang， disharmony between nutritive and defensive qi， impaired diffusion of lung qi， failure to contain body fluids， and dysfunction of the nasal orifices. The disease progression can be summarized as following steps， deficiency of healthy qi with latent pathogen， activation by external stimuli， constraint of defensive yang， dysfunction of the nasal orifices， incomplete elimination of the pathogen and incomplete recovery of healthy qi. The general therapeutic principle is to consolidate the defensive qi and vent the latent pathogen while regulating the lung and nasal orifices simultaneously. The empirical prescription Xingui Fangzhi Decoction （辛桂防芷汤） is used as the basic formula and modified dynamically according to the attack and remission stages. During the attack stage， treatment focuses on dispelling wind and cold， regulating defensive qi， and venting the latent pathogen； during the remission stage， it emphasizes supplementing qi， consolidating the defensive exterior， and reinforcing the spleen to resolve the latent pathogen.

Objective: To explore the associations of sedentary behavior and physical activity with next day affective states in junior and senior high school students, so as to provide a reference for promoting affective health in the population. Methods: From March to April 2026, 137 junior and senior high school students aged 12-17 years were recruited from two junior and senior high schools in Tianjin using convenience sampling. The ActiGraph wGT3X-BT accelerometer was used to continuously monitor 24 hour activity behaviors, and screen sedentary time (SST) and non-screen sedentary time were distinguished in combination with daily time use diaries. Daily affect levels in junior and senior high school students were collected via the Positive and Negative Affect Schedule-Expanded Form, with moods classified into high /low arousal positive affect and high /low arousal negative affect. Bayesian multilevel compositional data analysis and isotemporal substitution analysis were employed to explore the associations and substitution effects of sedentary behavior and 24 hour activity behaviors with next day affective states in junior and senior high school students. Results: Bayesian multilevel modeling showed that the associations between 24 hour movement behaviors and nextday affect in junior and senior high school students were mainly evident at the within person level. SST was associated with lower next day high arousal positive affect ( β =-0.15) and low arousal positive affect ( β = -0.11 ), and with higher high arousal negative affect ( β =0.12); light physical activity (LPA) was associated with higher high arousal positive affect ( β =0.13), and moderate to vigorous physical activity (MVPA) was associated with lower low arousal negative affect ( β =-0.06) (all P <0.05). Dose response analysis showed that, at the within person level, the substitution effect between SST and LPA was the most pronounced. As the duration of reallocating SST to LPA increased from 10 min to 60 min, high arousal positive affect ( β =0.020-0.123) and low arousal positive affect ( β =0.010-0.061) showed upward trends, while high arousal negative affect ( β =-0.061 to -0.010) showed a downward trend (all P <0.05); although low arousal negative affect presented a decreasing trend, it did not reach statistical significance at any time point ( β =-0.041 to -0.007, all P >0.05). Among the other substitution relationships, reallocating SST to MVPA was accompanied by a decrease in low arousal negative affect ( β =-0.033 to -0.005 ), and reallocating SST to sleep was accompanied by a decrease in high arousal negative affect ( β =-0.029 to -0.005) (all P < 0.05). Conclusions The associations between 24 hour activity behaviors and next day affect in junior and senior high school students are mainly evident at the within person level. Reallocating an individual s daily SST to LPA or MVPA can improve next day affective states in junior and senior high school students.

Objective:To investigate the effects and molecular mechanisms of Wilms tumor 1-associated proteins(WTAP)on the cell biological properties of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma(ESCC)cells.Methods:31 pairs of ESCC tissues and their paired paracancerous tissues that were surgically resected at the Second Clinical Medical College of Chuanbei Medical College between September 2019 and April 2021 were collected.The esophageal cancer cells KYSE30,KYSE410,KYSE150,KYSE510,TE-1,and normal human esophageal epithelial cells HET-1A were routinely cultured.Transfection reagents were used to transfect si-NC,si-WTAP#1 and si-WTAP#2 nucleic acids into KYSE150 and KYSE510 cells.The cells were divided into si-NC,si-WTAP#1 and si-WTAP#2 groups.The expressions of WTAP and MAP3K9 mRNA were detected in the cells of each group by qPCR assay.CCK-8 assay,clone formation assay,and scratch healing assay,Transwell assay were employed to detect the effects of knockdown of WTAP expression on ESCC cell proliferation,migration,invasion and apoptosis.WB assay was used to detect the expressions of WTAP,MAP3K9,EMT and MAPK pathway-related proteins in ESCC cells of each group knocked down of WTAP;immunohistochemistry to detect the expression of WTAP proteins in ESCC tissues,immunoprecipitation of methylated RNA(MeRIP)-qPCR assay to detect the level of MAP3K9 m6A in ESCC cells,actinomycin D assay to detect the stability of mRNA of MAP3K9,and database data to analyze the expression,target genes,functional enrichment,and interacting RNA of WTAP.Results:WTAP was highly expressed in ESCC tissues and cells(P<0.05 or P<0.01 or P<0.001)and correlated with the degree of differentiation(P<0.01);the expression of WTAP mRNA and its protein were successfully knocked down in KYSE150 and KYSE510 cells(P<0.01 or P<0.001);the knockdown of WTAP significantly inhibited the proliferation,migration and invasion of KYSE150 and KYSE510 cells(P<0.05 or P<0.01 or P<0.001),and promoted the apoptosis of KYSE150 and KYSE510 cells(P<0.05 or P<0.01).Knockdown of WTAP resulted in a significant decrease in the m6A level of MAP3K9(P<0.05),and its mRNA expression level and mRNA stability were both significantly reduced(P<0.05).Database data analysis showed that WTAP target genes clustered in the MAPK signaling pathway;the expression levels of MAP3K9,p-ERK,N-cadherin,and MMP9 were significantly reduced(P<0.05 or P<0.01),and the expression level of E-cadherin was significantly elevated(P<0.05 or P<0.01)in the KYSE150 and KYSE510 cells after knockdown of WTAP.Conclusions:WTAP is highly expressed in ESCC tissues and cells and correlates with their differentiation.It promotes the stability of MAP3K9 mRNA through m6A modification,activates the MAPK pathway and thus promotes the malignant biological behaviors of ESCC cells.

Objective:To explore the diagnostic value of cardiac color Doppler ultrasonography for left ventricular hypertrophy(LVH)complicated left heart failure(LHF).Methods:A total of 117 LVH patients complicated LHF admitted in Ningde City Hospital Affiliated to Ningde Normal College between January 2019 and January 2023(heart failure group)and 100 healthy people(control group)who underwent general physical examination in our hospital simultaneously were selected for the study.Left ventricular ejection fraction(LVEF),left atrial diameter(LAD),left ventricular end-diastolic diameter(LVEDd),early diastolic peak flow velocity/late diastolic peak flow velocity(E/A)were measured by cardiac color Doppler ultrasound in two groups.Receiver operating charac-teristic(ROC)curve was used to analyze the diagnostic value of cardiac color Doppler ultrasound indexes for LVH complicated LHF.In addition,the 117 patients with LVH and LHF were divided into mild group(n=54)and moderate to severe group(n=63)according to cardiac function class.Spearman correlation analysis was used to an-alyze the associationof cardiac color ultrasound parameters with cardiac function class.Results:Compared with par-ticipants in control group,those in heart failure group had significant lower LVEF[(47.88±4.75)％ vs.(69.81±5.64)％],and significant higher LAD[(44.03±4.88)mm vs.(27.56±2.76)mm vs.],LVEDd[(55.68±5.04)mm vs.(42.19±1.38)mm],E/A[(13.04±3.58)vs.(6.60±1.67)](P＜0.001 all).ROC analysis indicated that the area under the curve(AUC)of the combination of various parameters of cardiac ultrasound for diagnosing LVH with LHF was significantly higher than those of the single tests(Combined detection:AUC=0.901,95％CI 0.853～0.937 vs LVEF:AUC=0.644,95％CI 0.577～0.708,LAD:AUC=0.703,95％CI 0.637～0.763,LVEDd:AUC=0.633,95％CI 0.565～0.697,E/A:AUC=0.748,95％CI 0.685～0.804,Z=7.062,5.764,7.292,4.864,P＜0.001 all).Compared with patients in mild group,those in moderate to severe group had signifi-cant lower LVEF[(45.67±3.37)％ vs.(50.47±4.86)％],and significant higher LAD[(46.31±4.42)mm vs.(41.36±3.98)mm],LVEDd[(60.09±1.75)mm vs.(50.53±1.41)mm]and E/A[(13.99±2.96)vs.(11.93±3.92)](P＜0.01 all).Spearman correlation analysis indicated that LVEF was negatively correlated with cardiac function class(r=-0.474),while LAD(r=0.511),LVEDd(r=0.863),E/A(r=0.269)were positively corre-lated with cardiac function class(P＜0.01 all).Conclusion:Cardiac color Doppler ultrasound could better diagnose LVH complicated LHF,and also could effectively predict the cardiac function of patients with LVH and LHF.

Objective To analyze the risk factors and effective predictive indicators for postpartum hemor-rhage(PPH)in pregnant women with severe pre-eclampsia(sPE)in singleton pregnancies.The findings will serve as a valuable reference for the clinical prevention and management of PPH in these patients.Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on 932 pregnant women with sPE at two tertiary hospitals in Guangzhou from January 1,2016,to December 31,2022.Among these,95 cases were complicated by PPH.A comparative analysis was performed between the sPE group and the sPE with PPH group.Results(1)The incidence of assisted reproductive technology,intrapartum blood loss,placental abruption,elevated D-dimer levels,increased monocyte counts,and higher SIRI levels were significantly higher in the PPH group,whereas platelet counts were significantly lower(P<0.05).(2)The results indicated that intrapartum blood loss,D-dimer levels,and platelet counts were inde-pendently associated with PPH in pregnant women with sPE.(3)The area under the curve(AUC)for intrapartum blood loss,D-dimer,and platelet counts were 0.805,0.717,and 0.571,respectively.The optimal cutoff value for D-dimer was determined to be 2.295 μg/mL.The combined AUC for intrapartum blood loss and D-dimer was 0.859.(4)Intrapartum blood loss values were significantly higher in the PPH group for both vaginal delivery and cesarean section(P<0.001).The corresponding optimal cutoff values were 285 mL and 375 mL,respectively.Conclusions Intrapartum haemorrhage,D-dimer levels,and platelet count were identified as independent risk factors for PPH in pregnant women with sPE.Specifically,pregnant women with sPE who experienced blood loss exceeding 285 mL during vaginal delivery or 375 mL during caesarean section,along with a D-dimer level greater than 2.295 μg/mL,demonstrated an increased likelihood of developing PPH.Therefore,it is crucial to enhance clinical monitoring of these relevant indicators in high-risk populations.
