Objective: To systematically evaluate the therapeutic efficacy and maintenance effects of digital psychological therapies on depressive symptoms among adolescents, so as to provide a reference for clinical practice. Methods: Randomized controlled trial(RCT) investigating digital psychological therapies to improve depressive symptoms among adolescents were searched across databases, including PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), Wanfang database, VIP database, and SinoMed, from database inception to November 20, 2025. Following literature screening, quality assessment, and data extraction, a Meta analysis was performed using Stata 18.0 software. Results: A total of 20 studies involving 2 042 adolescents aged 11-19 were included. The Meta analysis revealed that digital psychological therapies significantly alleviated depressive symptoms in adolescents ( SMD =-0.59, 95% CI =-0.85 to -0.32, P <0.01). The therapeutic effect was sustained at long term follow up ( SMD =-0.21, 95% CI =-0.34 to -0.09, P <0.01). Furthermore, depression scores in the intervention group showed a continued decrease from post intervention to long term follow up ( SMD =-0.28, 95% CI =-0.41 to -0.14, P <0.01). Egger s linear regression test indicated possible publication bias (Kendall s tall=0.28, P <0.01). Conclusions Digital psychological therapies can effectively improve depressive symptoms among adolescents, with stable long term efficacy. However, current evidence remains limited and exhibits substantial heterogeneity. Therefore, further large sample, high quality RCTs are warranted to validate the effectiveness of this intervention.

Objective To evaluate the value of serum Mac-2 binding protein (M2BP) for assessment of the severity of schisto somiasis-induced liver fibrosis, so as to provide insights into non-invasive diagnosis and disease surveillance of liver fibrosis caused by schistosomiasis. Methods A total of 234 individuals with a history of Schistosoma japonicum infection were sampled from Xinhua Village, Lushan City, Jiangxi Province from 2019 to 2020, and 234 serum samples were collected from all participants. All participants received B-ultrasound examinations of the liver. Serum samples were categorized into four groups (grades 0, Ⅰ, Ⅱ and Ⅲ schistosomiasis-induced liver fibrosis groups) according to B-ultrasound examination results, and then, each group was randomly divided into a receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve group and an efficacy assessment group at a ratio of 7∶3. Serum M2BP concentration was measured in four groups using the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), and differences in serum M2BP concentrations were compared with analysis of variance and Spearman correlation analysis. Serum M2BP concentration was subjected to ROC curve analysis among individuals with different grades of schistosomiasis-induced liver fibrosis in the ROC curve group to determine the optimal diagnostic threshold of M2BP concentration at different fibrosis grades, and the area under the ROC curve (AUC) was calculated to evaluate the diagnostic performance. The diagnostic accuracy was verified by comparing the accordance rate and Kappa consistency test in the efficacy assessment group. Results Among 234 serum samples, there were 79 samples with grade 0 schistosomiasis-induced liver fibrosis, 87 samples with Grade Ⅰ, 46 samples with Grade Ⅱ and 22 samples with Grade Ⅲ according to the B-ultrasound examinations. The mean serum M2BP concentrations were (0.40 ± 0.31) [95% confidence interval (CI): (0.33, 0.47)], (0.64 ± 0.48) [95% CI: (0.53, 0.74)], (1.76 ± 0.58) [95% CI: (1.59, 1.93)] μg/mL and (2.56 ± 0.93) [95% CI: (2.14, 2.97)] μg/mL in the four groups, respectively (F = 150.796, P < 0.001), and the severity of schistosomiasis-induced liver fibrosis significantly positively correlated with serum M2BP concentration (rs = 0.715, P < 0. 001). The sample sizes of grades 0, Ⅰ, Ⅱ and Ⅲ schistosomiasis-induced liver fibrosis sera were randomly allocated as follows: 55 versus 24, 61 versus 26, 32 versus 14, and 15 versus 7 in the ROC curve and efficacy assessment groups, respectively, and the serum M2BP concentrations were (0.39 ± 0.29) μg/mL and (0.42 ± 0.36) μg/mL (F = 0.196, P > 0.05), (0.59 ± 0.47) μg/mL and (0.75 ± 0.51) μg/mL (F = 1.967, P > 0.05), (1.73 ± 0.59) μg/mL and (1.85 ± 0.57) μg/mL (F = 0.417, P > 0.05), and (2.46 ± 0.64) μg/mL and (2.76 ± 1.41) μg/mL (F = 0.491, P > 0.05), respectively. ROC curve analysis showed that the optimal diagnostic thresholds of serum M2BP concentration were 0.347 86 μg/mL (AUC = 0.635, P < 0.05), 1.188 83 μg/mL (AUC = 0.938, P < 0.000 1) and 2.021 21 μg/mL (AUC = 0.821, P < 0.000 1) for grade Ⅰ, Ⅱ and Ⅲ schistosomiasis-induced liver fibrosis. In addition, the accordance rates between the optimal diagnostic threshold of serum M2BP and B-ultrasound examinations for predicting grade Ⅰ, Ⅱ and Ⅲ schistosomiasis-induceed liver fibrosis were 69.23%, 85.71% and 71.43% (χ2 = 1.340, P > 0.05), and the overall Kappa consistency test showed moderate consistency [Kappa = 0.608, 95% CI: (0.428, 0.788); Z = 6.609, P < 0.000 1]. Conclusions Serum M2BP may serve as a potential biomarker for assessing moderate to advanced schistosomiasis-induced liver fibrosis; however, its diagnostic value for early-stage schistosomiasis-induced liver fibrosis remains limited.

Simultaneously operating two dispensing robots significantly improved the efficiency of batch dispensing and reduced the residual amount of liquid medicine （P＜0.05）； additionally， a quality testing system for finished infusion was established， involving appearance， Tyndall effect， insoluble particles， turbidity， absorbance， pH and osmotic pressure， to ensure the quality of finished infusion and reduce the risk of infusion. CONCLUSIONS The new process of PIVAS connected with intelligent devices in our hospital can improve work efficiency， reduce dispensing errors， ensure the quality of finished infusion， and improve the level of pharmaceutical care.

Background: and Purpose Symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage (sICH) following endovascular thrombectomy (EVT) is a severe complication associated with adverse functional outcomes and increased mortality rates. Currently, a reliable predictive model for sICH risk after EVT is lacking. Methods: This study used data from patients aged ≥20 years who underwent EVT for anterior circulation stroke from the nationwide Taiwan Registry of Endovascular Thrombectomy for Acute Ischemic Stroke (TREAT-AIS). A predictive model including factors associated with an increased risk of sICH after EVT was developed to differentiate between patients with and without sICH. This model was compared existing predictive models using nationwide registry data to evaluate its relative performance. Results: Of the 2,507 identified patients, 158 developed sICH after EVT. Factors such as diastolic blood pressure, Alberta Stroke Program Early CT Score, platelet count, glucose level, collateral score, and successful reperfusion were associated with the risk of sICH after EVT. The TREAT-AIS score demonstrated acceptable predictive accuracy (area under the curve [AUC]=0.694), with higher scores being associated with an increased risk of sICH (odds ratio=2.01 per score increase, 95% confidence interval=1.64–2.45, P<0.001). The discriminatory capacity of the score was similar in patients with symptom onset beyond 6 hours (AUC=0.705). Compared to existing models, the TREAT-AIS score consistently exhibited superior predictive accuracy, although this difference was marginal. Conclusions The TREAT-AIS score outperformed existing models, and demonstrated an acceptable discriminatory capacity for distinguishing patients according to sICH risk levels. However, the differences between models were only marginal. Further research incorporating periprocedural and postprocedural factors is required to improve the predictive accuracy.

In-depth study of the components of polymyxins is the key to controlling the quality of this class of antibiotics.Similarities and variations of components present significant analytical challenges.A two-dimensional(2D)liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry(LC-MS)method was established for screening and comprehensive profiling of compositions of the antibiotic colistimethate sodium(CMS).A high concentration of phosphate buffer mobile phase was used in the first-dimensional LC system to get the components well separated.For efficient and high-accuracy screening of CMS,a targeted method based on a self-constructed high resolution(HR)mass spectrum database of CMS components was established.The database was built based on the commercial MassHunter Personal Compound Database and Library(PCDL)software and its accuracy of the compound matching result was verified with six known components before being applied to genuine sample screening.On this basis,the unknown peaks in the CMS chromatograms were deduced and assigned.The molecular formula,group composition,and origins of a total of 99 compounds,of which the combined area percentage accounted for more than 95％of CMS components,were deduced by this 2D-LC-MS method combined with the MassHunter PCDL.This profiling method was highly efficient and could distinguish hundreds of components within 3 h,providing reliable results for quality control of this kind of complex drugs.

OBJECTIVE: To explore the genetic characteristics of a Chinese pedigree with rare mosaic 11q partial duplication and its pathogenetic mechanisms. METHODS: A pedigree which underwent prenatal diagnosis at Wenzhou Central Hospital between September 25, 2015 and November 30, 2023 was selected for the study. Clinical data were collected from the pedigree. Peripheral blood samples from the parents, amniotic fluid from the fetus, and peripheral blood sample from the neonate were obtained. Genetic testing was carried out by using G-banded chromosomal karyotyping and single nucleotide polymorphism array (SNP-array) technology. Relevant literature was searched in the CNKI, Wanfang Data Knowledge Service Platform, and PubMed databases to summarize the clinical phenotypes of patients with 11q partial duplication. This study was approved by the Medical Ethics Committee of Wenzhou Central Hospital (Ethics No. L2024-07-080). RESULTS: The pregnant woman (G₃) had a history of adverse pregnancy outcomes. During her first pregnancy (G₁), prenatal ultrasound indicated intrauterine growth restriction and a Dandy-Walker variant. Follow-up at 8 years of age showed developmental delays and mild intellectual disability. During her second pregnancy (G₂), prenatal ultrasound revealed nasal bone hypoplasia, and the pregnancy was terminated at 23rd gestational week. During her third pregnancy (G₃), all prenatal tests were normal, and the neonate showed normal growth and development at 4 months of age. The karyotype of amniotic fluid of her first pregnancy was 46,X?, and the SNP-array analysis of neonatal peripheral blood showed arr[GRCh37/hg19]11q13.4q25(70432450_134607121)×2~3, with a mosaicism rate being approximately 40%. The karyotype for her second pregnancy was 46,X?,rec(11)dup(11q)inv(11)(p15q13)dmat[6]/46,X?[27], and the SNP-array result was arr[GRCh38]11q13.4q25(71406636_135067522)×2~3, with a mosaicism rate being approximately 75%. The karyotype for her third pregnancy was 46,X?,inv(11)(p15q13)mat, and the SNP-array result was arr(XN)×1,(1~22)×2. The karyotype of the woman was 46,XX,inv(11)(p15q13), and that of her husband was 46,XY. A review of 12 similar cases (including G₁) from the literature revealed that the common clinical phenotypes of 11q partial duplication included intellectual disability (12/12), developmental delay (12/12), ear abnormalities (12/12), microcephaly (10/12), seizures (8/12), hypotonia (8/12), and congenital heart malformations (7/12). CONCLUSION Mosaic partial duplication of 11q may underlie the genetic etiology of this pedigree. The pregnant woman is a carrier of an inversion on chromosome 11, which might have formed the mosaic 11q partial duplication through meiotic errors and mitotic trisomy rescue mechanisms during reproduction.

Objective:To investigate the value of a multi-parameter MRI nomogram model in evaluating the recurrence risk of hormone receptor (HR)-positive breast cancer.Methods:This study was a retrospective cross-sectional study. A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinicopathological data (age, menopausal status, axillary lymph node metastasis, etc.) and imaging data of 220 patients with HR-positive breast cancer who underwent breast MRI examination and were pathologically confirmed at the Second Affiliated Hospital of Nantong University from January 2018 to December 2023. All patients underwent preoperative MRI examinations. Their MRI features were analyzed, and the maximum diameter of the lesion and the apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) value were measured. Finally, the clinical treatment score (CTS5 score) after 5 years was calculated, and all patients were divided into a low recurrence risk (CTS5 score 3.13 points) and a medium to high recurrence risk (CTS5 score≥3.13 points) group. The patients were followed up through the electronic medical record system or by phone until December 31, 2024 to determine recurrence status. The patients were divided into the recurrence group and the non-recurrence group. The differences in clinicopathological data, MRI features and CTS5 scores between the recurrence group and the non-recurrence group were compared using independent sample t-tests, Mann-Whitney U tests or χ2 tests. Indicators with P0.05 in the univariate analysis were included in the multivariate logistic regression to screen the independent risk factors for predicting the recurrence of HR receptor-positive breast cancer, and a nomogram was constructed to establish the nomogram model. The receiver operating characteristic curves and the area under the curve (AUC) were used to evaluate the efficacy of the nomogram model in predicting the postoperative recurrence risk of patients with HR-positive breast cancer. The variance inflation factor (VIF) was used to evaluate the multicollinearity among independent variables. Calibration curves and decision curve analysis (DCA) were used to assess the fit and net clinical benefit of the nomogram model. Results:Among 220 patients with HR-positive breast cancer, 196 cases were in the non-recurrence group and 24 cases were in the recurrence group. There were statistically significant differences in the maximum diameter of the lesion, axillary lymph node metastasis, ADC value, CTS5 grouping, and CTS5 score between the recurrence group and the non-recurrence group ( P0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the maximum diameter of the lesion ( OR=1.110, 95% CI 1.169-1.503, P0.001), ADC value ( OR=0.993, 95% CI 0.993?0.989, P0.001), and axillary lymph node metastasis ( OR=8.842; 95% CI 2.120?36.884, P=0.003) were independent factors influencing postoperative recurrence in patients with HR-positive breast cancer, and a nomogram model was constructed based on this. VIF analysis showed that no significant multicollinearity was detected among the variables (VIF5). The AUC value of the nomogram model for predicting postoperative recurrence in patients with HR-positive breast cancer was 0.868 (95% CI 0.794-0.942), the sensitivity was 0.875, and the specificity was 0.781. The calibration curve showed that the prediction curve of this model for predicting postoperative recurrence in HR-positive breast cancer patients was basically consistent with the ideal curve trend. DCA showed that this model had a relatively high clinical benefit within the threshold probability range of 0.01% to 90.00%. Conclusion:The nomogram constructed based on multi-parameter MRI features can predict the postoperative recurrence risk of HR-positive breast cancer patients, with good consistency and predictive ability.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the inhibitory effects of Bruceine A(BA)on colon cancer and its underlying mechanisms.METHODS Human colon cancer HT-29 and HCT116 cells were treated with various concentrations of BA(0,1,2,5,10,20,40,80 μmol·L-1).Cell viability was assessed using the Cell Counting Kit-8(CCK-8).Flow cytometry,wound healing assays,and Transwell assays were employed to evaluate the effects of BA on cell apoptosis,cell cycle,invasion,and migration.Mo-lecular docking simulations were used to assess the binding of BA to GSK-3β protein,and Western blot analysis was used to examine protein expression related to the cell cycle,epithelial-mesenchymal transition,and the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway.An HT-29 cell subcutaneous xenograft mouse model was established.After tumor formation,mice were randomly divided into three groups(six mice per group):a blank group,a low-dose BA group(0.1 mg·kg-1),and a high-dose BA group(0.2 mg·kg-1).Mice were ad-ministered the drug for 19 d,then sacrificed,and tumor tissues were collected.Tumor volume changes over time were observed;Ki67 immunohistochemistry was used to assess cell proliferation in tumor tissues;Western blot analysis of Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway protein expression was conducted.RESULTS Compared with the blank group,BA could significantly inhibit the proliferation of HT-29 and HCT116 cells,with IC50 values of 10.80 μmol·L-1 and 17.96 μmol·L-1,respectively.Flow cytometry results showed that BA significantly induced apoptosis of HT-29 cells(P<0.01,P<0.001),and arrested the cell cycle at the S phase,accompanied by de-creased expression of cycle-related proteins CDK2 and Cyclin A(P<0.05,P<0.01,P<0.001).BA inhibited cell migration and in-vasion ability(P<0.05,P<0.01,P<0.001),reduced the expression of EMT-related proteins Snail,Vimentin,and N-Cadherin(P<0.01,P<0.001),and upregulated the expression of E-Cadherin protein.In addition,BA inhibited the expression of β-catenin and p-GSK3β proteins.Wnt agonist LiCl could significantly antagonize the anti-colon cancer effect of BA;Wnt inhibitor XAV939 could enhance the anti-colon cancer effect of BA.In the in vivo experiment,compared with the blank group,the tumor volume of the low-dose and high-dose BA groups was significantly reduced(P<0.05,P<0.001).Immunohistochemistry results showed that compared with the blank group,the expression of Ki67 in tumor tissues of the low-dose and high-dose BA groups was significantly reduced(P<0.001).Western blot results further proved that BA inhibited the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway.CONCLUSION BA inhibits the viability,invasion,and migration of colon cancer HT-29 cells,induces apoptosis,and causes cell cycle arrest.Additionally,it significantly suppresses the growth of subcutaneous HT-29 cell xenografts in vivo,possibly related to the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway.

Carbon dioxide(CO2),a colorless,odorless,low-density negative contrast agent with no nephrotoxicity or allergic reactions,has seen increasingly widespread application in the field of vascular imaging in recent years,particularly in patients with iodine allergy or renal insufficiency.When combined with digital subtraction angiography,CO2 angiography has demonstrated high-quality imaging in various arterial and venous sites such as the abdominal aorta,renal arteries,iliac arteries,lower limb arteries,and inferior vena cava.It has also shown safety and efficacy in clinical scenarios such as peripheral arterial disease,dialysis access evaluation,and transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt procedures.This review systematically summarizes domestic and international research progress on CO2 angiography,outlines its physicochemical properties,injection dosages and parameters,clinical indications,and imaging characteristics,and compares its image quality with that of iodine-based contrast agents.Common complications,their mechanisms,and preventive measures are also discussed.Although the image quality of CO2 is slightly inferior to that of iodine agents,it remains sufficient for most diagnostic and therapeutic needs,with a low overall incidence of mainly mild and transient adverse effects.With the development of automated injection systems and digital variance angiography technology,CO2 imaging quality is expected to continue improving,and its application scope is likely to expand further.Future efforts should focus on strengthening multicenter clinical research and establishing standardized operational protocols to promote the broader adoption and regulated use of this technology.

Objective:To compare the efficacy of body posture combined with pharmacotherapy and pharmacotherapy alone in the treatment of chronic subdural hematoma(CSDH).Methods:Firstly, retrospective case series study was conducted. Thirty cases of CSDH that had received body posture combined with pharmacotherapy at Department of Neurosurgery, Huashan Hospital Affiliated to Fudan University from December 2016 to October 2020 were studied retrospectively. Twenty-seven patients were male, and 3 patients were female. The age of patients ( M(IQR)) was 66(16) years (range:28 to 84). Nineteen patients had unilateral hematoma, and 11 patients had bilateral hematoma. All patients received pharmacotherapy and body posture therapy that was to raise their lower limbs 20 to 30 cm with leg lift pad and get abdominal compressed with customized abdominal belt in supine position. Patients were required to maintain the body posture as much as possible, with the maximum to 16 to 18 hours per day. Patients with unilateral hematoma should tilt the head to the affected side and avoid tilting it to the opposite side. For patients with bilateral hematoma, there was no need for head lateralization. Patient were treated with oral dexamethasone and atorvastatin simultaneously. The preliminary efficacy of body posture combined with pharmacotherapy was determined by hematoma improvement rate which was analyzed by Clopper-Pearson method. Then, the multi-center, prospective, randomized controlled trial had carried out in 9 medical centers from August 2020 to November 2021. The stratified block randomization method was adopted. Patients were randomized in a ratio of 1∶1 to either receive pharmacotherapy alone(the control group) or body posture combined with pharmacotherapy(the experiment group) for 3 months and followed up for 6 months. Effective treatment was defined as complete absorption of hematoma, or the hematoma volume decreased by more than 10 ml and Markwalder grading scale score had improved by more than 1 point compared to the baseline. The efficacy rate and surgery conversion rate at 3 months and recurrence at 6 months were observed. Comparison between groups was performed with paired sample t test, Mann-Whitney U test, χ2 test, corrected χ2 test, or Fisher exact probability method. Logistic regression was used to compare the effective rate and operation rate between the two groups. Results:In the respective study, 30 patients completed follow-up 13 to 353 days after treatment. At the last follow-up, the incidence of almost complete absorption or significantly absorption of hematoma (hematoma volume was significantly reduced accompanied by symptom improvement) was 93.3%. The 95% CI for the incidence that analyzed by the Clopper-Pearson method was 77.9% to 99.2%. One hundred and six patients were enrolled in the multicenter study. Fifty-five patients underwent body posture combined with pharmacotherapy. The age was 74(17) years (range:26 to 92). Thirty-nine patients were males and 16 were females. Fifty-one patients underwent pharmacotherapy alone. The age was 69(12) years (range:48 to 84). Thirty-seven patients were males and 14 were females. The length of body posture recorded in diary card was (15.7±2.3) hours(range:7.6 to 19.3 hours). The efficacy rate in the body posture combined with pharmacotherapy group and pharmacotherapy alone group were 83.6% (46/55) and 56.9% (29/51), respectively at 3 months. The result of the logistic regression analysis showed that the efficacy of body posture combined with pharmacotherapy group was better than that of pharmacotherapy alone group ( OR=3.88,95% CI:1.57 to 9.58, P=0.003). Surgery rate in the body posture combined with pharmacotherapy group and pharmacotherapy alone group were 5.5% (3/55) and 21.6% (11/51) respectively. The result of Logistic regression showed that the pharmacotherapy alone group was more likely to be converted to surgery ( OR=0.21,95% CI:0.05 to 0.80, P=0.023). At the 6 months, no recurrence of cases was found in the body posture combined with pharmacotherapy group. However, the recurrence rate of pharmacotherapy alone group was 6.3% (3/48), there was no significant difference between the two groups ( P>0.05). Conclusion:The effect of body posture combined with pharmacotherapy for chronic subdural hematoma is better than that of pharmacotherapy alone.
