ObjectiveTo investigate the association between immunoglobulin G （IgG）/immunoglobulin M （IgM） ratio and prognosis in patients with initially unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma （iuHCC） receiving TTP triple therapy with transcatheter arterial chemoembolization （TACE）， tyrosine kinase inhibitor （TKI）， and programmed cell death protein-1 （PD-1） inhibitors. MethodsA retrospective analysis was performed for the clinical data of 151 iuHCC patients who received TTP triple therapy in Department of Hepatobiliary Surgery， Guangxi Medical University Cancer Hospital， from November 2019 to December 2022， and according to IgG/IgM ratio， they were divided into high IgG/IgM group （IgG/IgM ratio >13.23） and low IgG/IgM group （IgG/IgM ratio ≤13.23）. The t-test was used for comparison of continuous data between groups， and the chi-square test was used for comparison of categorical data between groups. The Kaplan-Meier method and the log-rank test were used for survival analysis， and the Cox proportional hazards model was used to investigate the potential influencing factors for overall survival （OS）. ResultsThe 151 patients had a median OS of 26.7 months （95% confidence interval ［CI］： 19.8-not reached） and a median progression-free survival of 12.5 months （95%CI： 10.4 — 15.8）. The objective response rate was 83.4% and the disease control rate was 94.0%. There were no significant differences in baseline data between the high IgG/IgM group and the low IgG/IgM group （all P>0.05）. There was a significant difference in median OS between the high IgG/IgM group and the low IgG/IgM group （20.6 months vs not reached， P=0.016）. In both the high IgG/IgM group and the low IgG/IgM group， salvage hepatectomy was significantly associated with the improvement in OS （χ²=8.297 and 10.307， both P<0.05）. The multivariate analysis showed that high IgG/IgM ratio （hazard ratio ［HR］=1.799， 95%CI： 1.077 — 3.006， P=0.025）， baseline alpha-fetoprotein >400 ng/mL （HR=1.762， 95%CI： 1.017 — 3.050， P=0.043）， and BCLC stage （HR=2.265， 95%CI： 1.212 — 4.232， P=0.010） were independent influencing factors for OS. ConclusionHigh IgG/IgM ratio is associated with a poorer prognosis in iuHCC patients receiving TTP triple therapy， and salvage hepatectomy has a potential value in improving the prognosis of patients with a high IgG/IGM ratio.

ObjectiveTo explore the mechanism by which Qijia Rougan decoction ameliorates liver fibrosis through amino acid/fatty acid metabolic reprogramming and phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase （PI3K）/protein kinase B （Akt） pathway， based on the miRNA-mRNA regulatory network and the interaction between metabolism and signaling pathways. MethodsSprague-Dawley （SD） rats were randomized into four groups （n=8）： control， model， and low-dose and high-dose （7.0， 28.0 g·kg^-1·d^-1， respectively） Qijia Rougan decoction. Liver fibrosis was induced by subcutaneous injection of carbon tetrachloride （CCl₄）. From week 9， drug intervention was implemented for 7 weeks. After the final administration， the pathological changes in the liver were evaluated through hematoxylin-eosin （HE） and picrosirius red （PSR） staining. An automated biochemical analyzer was used to measure the serum levels of biochemical indicators， including alanine aminotransferase （ALT）， aspartate aminotransferase （AST）， alkaline phosphatase （ALP）， total bile acid （TBA）， albumin （ALB）， and cholesterol （TC）. High-throughput miRNA sequencing was performed to identify differentially expressed miRNAs （DemiRs） during liver fibrosis. A miRNA-mRNA interaction network was constructed to identify key targets， which were then subjected to GO and KEGG enrichment analyses. The expression levels of selected DemiRs were validated by Real-time PCR. ResultsCompared with the control group， the model group showed marked hepatic lobular necrosis， increased collagen deposition， significant fibrosis， elevated serum levels of ALT， AST， ALP， and TBA （P<0.01）， and declined levels of ALB and TC （P<0.01）. Compared with the model group， Qijia Rougan decoction treatment reduced hepatic necrosis， collagen accumulation， and fibrosis， lowered the serum levels of ALT， AST， ALP， and TBA （P<0.01）， and raised the levels of ALB and TC （P<0.01）. Integrated miRNA-seq and RNA-seq analysis identified 31 DemiRs （6 upregulated and 25 downregulated） and 498 targets. The expression trends of four selected DemiRs， including rno-miRNA-376b-3p， were consistent with sequencing results （R²=0.93）. Functional annotation revealed that top 20 upregulated targets were enriched in amino acid and fatty acid metabolism， while top 20 downregulated targets were significantly associated with the PI3K/Akt signaling pathway and cancer progression. ConclusionQijia Rougan decoction alleviates liver fibrosis by reconstructing the miRNA-mRNA regulatory network， promoting metabolic reprogramming， and inhibiting the PI3K/Akt signaling pathway. These findings provide mechanism evidence supporting the multi-targeted antifibrotic effects of traditional Chinese medicine compound formulas.

Objective To explore the risk prediction model of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) in community patients with hypertension based on remote ambulatory blood pressure parameters. Methods From November 2023 to October 2024, 486 community patients with hypertension who received standardized management in Nanjing Medical University Affiliated to Suzhou Hospital were retrospectively selected. All patients wore remote ambulatory blood pressure monitor to obtain 24-hour ambulatory blood pressure data. Clinical data were collected and remote ambulatory blood pressure parameters [24-hour systolic blood pressure variability (SBPV), 24-hour diastolic blood pressure variability (DBPV), nighttime SBPV, nighttime DBPV, daytime SBPV, daytime DBPV] were extracted. The patients were followed up for 12 months, and were classified into MACE group (n=42) and non-MACE group (n=444) according to whether MACE occurred during follow-up. Multivariate Logistic regression analysis was adopted to screen the influencing factors for MACE. Based on the above factors, a risk prediction model was constructed and verified by receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve. Results MACE occurred in 42 cases among 486 patients, with an incidence rate of 8.64%. Multivariate Logistic regression analysis suggested that nighttime DBPV (OR=1.119, 95%CI: 1.030-1.214), 24h-SBPV (OR=1.115, 95%CI: 1.007-1.235), nighttime SBPV (OR=1.116, 95%CI: 1.016-1.226) and diabetes mellitus (OR=2.762, 95%CI: 1.059-7.203) were independent factors for MACE (P<0.05). The model validation results revealed that the area under the ROC curve was 0.905 (95%CI: 0.854-0.956 ), and the model had a good discrimination degree. Conclusion Nighttime DBPV, 24h-SBPV, nighttime SBPV and diabetes mellitus are independent risk factors for MACE in community patients with hypertension. The clinical prediction model based on these variables exhibits certain predictive value on MACE risk.

ObjectiveThis paper aims to observe the syndrome improvement and negative antigen conversion rate of Qingxuan Daozhi formula in the treatment of influenza in children （heat accumulation in the lung and stomach syndrome）. MethodsThrough a multi-center randomized controlled methodology design，confirmed influenza cases were collected from October 2022 to April 2023 in the pediatrics department of eight hospitals，such as Dongfang Hospital of Beijing University of Chinese Medicine. A total of 180 children with influenza and heat accumulation in the lung and stomach syndrome conforming to the standard were recruited through the clinic. The sick children meeting the inclusion criteria were randomly divided into groups by a block-randomized method. The children in the experimental group were treated with Qingxuan Daozhi formula for five days，and those in the control group were treated with Oseltamivir Phosphate Granules for five days. The primary efficacy indicator was the negative conversion rate of influenza antigen detection. Secondary efficacy indicators were the Canadian acute respiratory illness and flu scale （CARIFS） and the incidence of complications，severe cases， and critical cases. Follow-up observation was conducted on the day of enrollment，48 hours after medication，72 hours after medication， and （6+1） d after medication. ResultsOne hundred and eighty participants were randomly assigned to the experimental group （90 cases） or the control group （90 cases）. All participants were followed up during the study. Comparison of influenza antigen detection results in the primary efficacy indicators showed that the average time of negative influenza antigen conversion in the experimental group was （5.29±1.25） d，and that in the control group was （5.40±1.68） d，without a statistically significant difference. After five days of intervention，52 cases in the experimental group and 51 cases in the control group converted to negative，without a statistically significant difference. CARIFS score results in the secondary efficacy indicators showed that during 72 hours after intervention，there were statistically significant differences between the experimental group and the control group in three dimensions， including headache，muscle soreness， and the need for extra care （P<0.05）. On the （6+1） days after the intervention，the differences in both the experimental group and the control group were statistically significant in 10 dimensions， including sore throat，bad sleep，uncomfortable feeling，poor spirit and fatigue，crying more than usual，the need for extra care，symptom，function，influence on parents，and total score （P<0.05）. The comparison results within the group in the dimensional scores of symptom， function， and influence on parents，as well as the CARIFS total score showed that with the delay of follow-up time，scores of both groups decreased significantly，with a statistically significant difference （P<0.01）. Inter-group comparison results showed that the mean score of the experimental group was higher than that of the control group at the time of enrollment. With the progress of intervention，the score of the experimental group was significantly decreased compared with that of the control group. At the end of follow-up，the mean score of the experimental group was lower than that of the control group，with no statistically significant difference. In terms of the incidence of complications，severe cases， and critical cases， there were no complications，severe cases， and critical cases in the two groups，without a statistically significant difference. ConclusionThe symptom improvement effect and negative antigen conversion rate of Qingxuan Daozhi formula in the treatment of influenza in children （heat accumulation in the lung and stomach syndrome） are not inferior to Oseltamivir Phosphate granules， and children's acceptance is better. It can be more widely used in clinical treatment of influenza in children （heat accumulation in the lung and stomach syndrome）.

Objective: To analyze the characteristics of public health emergencies in schools in Jinhua City, Zhejiang Province from 2015 to 2024, so as to provide the evidence for public health risk management in schools. Methods: Data on public health emergencies in schools in Jinhua City from 2015 to 2024 were collected through the Emergency Public Health Management Information System of China Disease Prevention and Control Information System, including event name, reporting time, region, number of cases, and number of affected persons. A descriptive analysis was conducted on the classification, temporal distribution, regional distribution, school type distribution, and emergency response of public health emergencies in schools. Results: From 2015 to 2024, a total of 221 public health emergencies in schools were reported in Jinhua City, accounting for 73.67% of all public health emergencies. The cumulative number of cases was 9 399, with an attack rate of 3.70%. No deaths were reported. Infectious disease events predominated, accounting for 218 events (98.64%). The top three infectious disease events were other infectious diarrheal diseases, influenza, and varicella, with 110, 59, and 25 events, accounting for 50.46%, 27.06%, and 11.47%, respectively. The reporting peak occurred from November to December, with 56 and 38 events reported, accounting for 25.34% and 17.19%, with seasonal indices of 278.73% and 189.14%, respectively. A secondary peak occurred from March to May, with 25, 28, and 21 events reported, accounting for 11.31%, 12.67%, and 9.50%, with seasonal indices of 124.43%, 139.37%, and 104.52%, respectively. The top three regions by number of reported events were Yiwu City, Wucheng District, and Wuyi County, with 58, 48, and 29 events, accounting for 26.24%, 21.72%, and 13.12%, respectively. Primary schools and childcare centers reported a relatively high number of events, with 116 and 48 events, accounting for 52.49% and 21.72%, respectively. Spearman rank correlation analysis showed that the time from intervention to resolution was positively correlated with the duration of the event for other infectious diarrheal diseases, varicella, and hand, foot, and mouth disease (rS=0.695, 0.607, and 0.729, all P<0.05). Conclusions From 2015 to 2024, public health emergencies in schools in Jinhua City were mainly infectious disease events, with two peaks in winter and spring. They occurred predominantly in primary schools and childcare centers. Priority should be given to the prevention and control of other infectious diarrheal diseases, influenza, and varicella.

Extraintestinal manifestations (EIM) of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) may affect multiple organ systems, with approximately 50% of IBD patients presenting with at least one EIM during the course of their disease, with cutaneous involvement being particularly common. Cutaneous manifestations can present in various forms. This paper reports a case of ulcerative colitis (UC) complicated with bullous pemphigoid (BP), aiming to enhance clinicians' awareness of skin lesions associated with UC.

Objective:This study aimed to analyze the genetic subtypes and drug resistance transmission characteristics of HIV-1 among the preoperative population in Ningxia from 2018 to 2023, to provide a scientific basis for the prevention and control of the AIDS epidemic.Methods:Plasma samples and demographic information of HIV/AIDS patients receiving antiviral treatment in Ningxia from 2018 to 2023 were collected. Blood samples with a viral loads >200 copies/ml from preoperative testing were amplified, sequenced, and subjected to genotypic resistance testing to analyze their genetic subtypes and drug resistance characteristics. The TN93 model in MEGA11 software was used to calculate the genetic distance between each pair of all sequences, and a molecular transmission network was constructed in Cytoscape 3.10.0 with 1.9% as the genetic threshold.Results:Among 101 preoperative HIV/AIDS patients, CRF07_BC and CRF01_AE were the predominant subtypes. The majority were male (85.15%, 86/101), aged 41-60 years (45.54%, 46/101), residing in Yinchuan city (61.39%, 62/101), and infected via heterosexual transmission (71.29%, 72/101), with most cases being late-detected. Of 39 drug-resistant sequences, resistance to non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NNRTIs) alone (18.81%, 19/101) and dual resistance to nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NRTIs)-NNRTIs (13.86%, 14/101) were most common. Among 44 sequences forming 13 transmission clusters, nine clusters harbored drug-resistant mutations. Four subtypes entered the molecular network, primarily involving heterosexual transmission, individuals with junior high school education or below, and men aged≥50 years.Conclusions:From 2018 to 2023, the preoperative HIV/AIDS patients had diversified genetic subtypes, with higher rates of overall drug resistance and late detection, stronger drug resistance and higher mortality rate. Strengthening molecular epidemiological research and developing targeted screening strategies are critical to improve early detection and reduce transmission risks.

Objective:To evaluate the safety and efficacy of secondary transport on extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) for critically ill children.Methods:This was a retrospective cohort study. Data from 222 pediatric patients who underwent ECMO transport from May 2019 to May 2024 at 5 ECMO centers and Chinese Database of Pediatric Extracorporeal Life Support Organization were collected. The cases were divided into primary and secondary transport groups by nature of transport. The clinical data, including demographics, ECMO indications, transport distance, pre-transport lab results, prognosis and complications were analyzed. Two independent samples t-test, Wilcoxon test, and χ2 test or Fisher′s exact probability method were used to compare the differences between 2 groups and evaluate the safety and efficacy of secondary transport. Results:Among the 222 children transported with ECMO, there were 135 males and 87 females, with an age of 3.0 (0.2, 7.0) years. There were 202 cases in the primary transport group and 20 cases in the secondary transport group. All secondary transport patients had failed attempts at weaning ECMO before transfer. The patients in the secondary transport group were older, had higher rates of surgical cannulation, circulatory support, and pre-ECMO lactate levels compared to the primary transport group (7.0 (2.8, 10.0) vs. 3.0 (0.2, 6.0) years old, 55.0% (11/20) vs. 3.6% (7/202), 80.0% (16/20) vs. 41.6% (84/202), (10±4) vs. (7±6) mmol/L, Z=3.41, χ 2=66.31, 10.99, t=2.24, all P<0.05). In the secondary transport group, the vasoactive-inotropic scores of patients on circulatory support and the oxygenation index for patients requiring respiratory support were higher than those in the primary transport group (83±33 vs. 82±68, 51.0±1.8 vs. 37.4±10.2, t=2.36, 2.63, respectively; both P<0.05). There were no statistically significant differences between the 2 groups in sex, transport distance, pre-ECMO creatinine, arterial blood gas BE values, and ECMO duration (all P>0.05). No life-threatening complications occurred during the transport in either group. Two patients in the secondary transport group underwent heart transplantation, and 1 patient underwent radiofrequency ablation. The overall survival rate between the 2 groups showed no statistically significant difference (45.0% (9/20) vs. 55.4% (112/202), χ2=1.15, P>0.05). Conclusions:Secondary ECMO transport for critically ill children don't increase mortality or life-threatening complications during transport. ECMO patients who cannot receive effective treatment locally can benefit from secondary transport to an advanced ECMO center provides further treatment opportunities.

Objective To explore the effect of improved operating room nursing on vitrectomy patients with diabetic retinopathy based on change theory.Methods A total of 100 patients with diabetic retinopathy who underwent vitrectomy in Affiliated Eye Hospital of Nanchang University from January to December 2023 were selected as study objects.Fifty patients admitted from January to June 2023 were included in control group and received routine nursing in operating room after vitrectomy,and fifty patients admitted from July to December 2023 were included in experimental group to receive improved operating room nursing based on change theory.Operation time,postoperative intraocular pressure,operative stress index,complications and nursing satisfaction were compared between two groups.Results The operation time of experimental group was significantly shorter than that of control group,and the postoperative intraocular pressure was significantly lower than that of control group(P<0.05).At the end of operation,heart rate,mean arterial pressure and mixed venous blood oxygen saturation of two groups were significantly higher than those before operation(P<0.05),heart rate and mean arterial pressure of experimental group were significantly lower than those of control group,and mixed venous blood oxygen saturation was significantly higher than that of control group(P<0.05).The complication rate of experimental group was significantly lower than that of control group(P<0.05).The nursing satisfaction score of experimental group was significantly higher than that of control group(P<0.05).Conclusion The application of improved operating room nursing based on change theory to vitrectomy patients with diabetic retinopathy can shorten the operation time,reduce the stress of surgery,promote postoperative recovery,reduce the incidence of complications,and improve the satisfaction of operating room nursing.

OBJECTIVE To evaluate the clinical value of dose-escalated postoperative radiotherapy(PORT)in improving local control and survival outcomes for head and neck adenoid cystic carcinoma(ACC)patients.METHODS This retrospective study analyzed 336 ACC patients treated with surgery plus PORT at Beijing Tongren Hospital from January 2015 to January 2021.Cohort stratification compared high-dose(>60 Gy,n=146)and conventional-dose(≤60 Gy,n=190)regimens.Survival analysis employed Kaplan-Meier estimates with log-rank testing,complemented by multivariate Cox regression for risk adjustment.RESULTS The cohort demonstrated 39.29%(132/336)cumulative local failure rate.The overall survival rates at 1,3,and 5 years after surgery were 98.81%,94.05%,and 90.48%,respectively.Dose-response relationships revealed:1.Significantly reduced local recurrence with high-dose PORT(28.08%vs.47.89%,P<0.001),corresponding to 41.37%lower recurrence risk(a HR=0.59,95%CI=0.38-0.91;P=0.041);2.Superior progression-free survival in the high-dose group(3-year:86.99%vs.76.32%;5-year:82.19%vs.66.32%,all P<0.05);3.Comparable overall survival between groups(median OS:200 vs.160 months,P=0.292).CONCLUSION Dose escalation beyond 60 Gy significantly enhances locoregional control and progression-free survival in head and neck ACC without conferring overall survival advantage,likely reflecting the disease's characteristic indolent metastatic progression.These results establish>60 Gy as an optimal dose threshold for PORT in high-risk ACC management.
