AIM:To investigate the mechanism of reduced tear secretion in depression-related dry eye rats based on 5-HT/TRPV4/AQP5.METHODS:Healthy SD male rats were established with chronic unpredictable mild stress(CUMS)method to establish a depression-induced dry eye model(n=8), and the control group was blank rats(n=8). The ELISA method was used to compare the 5-hydroxytryptamine(5-HT)in serum and hippocampal tissue of the two groups, and the HE sections of lacrimal gland and AQP5 immunohistochemistry were observed. Western blot and RT-PCR were used to detect the expression of 5-HT3R, TRPV4 and AQP5 in the lacrimal gland tissue of the two groups of rats.RESULTS:The tear secretion in the depression-induced group was significantly reduced(P=0.001), the serum and hippocampal 5-HT levels were significantly reduced(all P<0.05), the expression of AQP5 antibody in the lacrimal gland immunohistochemistry was significantly lower than that in the control group(P<0.001), the expression of 5-HT3R, TRPV4 and AQP5 in the lacrimal gland was significantly reduced(all P<0.05), and no obvious inflammatory cells were found in the lacrimal gland tissue sections.CONCLUSION:Depression-related dry eye may occur through a non-inflammatory 5-HT/TRPV4/AQP5 mechanism.

Pulmonary hypertension （PH） is a severe and rare chronic cardiopulmonary disorder for which existing vasodilator therapies can only alleviate symptoms， rather than target or fundamentally reverse the disease. Additionally， the long-term prognosis remains poor. Recent studies have found that some novel anti-tumor drugs （NADs） can relieve PH， such as imatinib， gefitinib， sorafenib， olaparib， piperacillin， everolimus， rituximab， etc. However， some NADs can induce PH or exacerbate its symptoms， including dasatinib， lorlatinib， carfilzomib， bevacizumab， trastuzumab， nivolumab， etc. The effects of lapatinib， ruxolitinib， and bortezomib on PAH are controversial. Individualized medication should be adopted in clinical practice when using NADs for treatment， with close monitoring being essential.

Objective: To understand current state of physical health levels of first year students in different body mass index (BMI) categories in Ningxia universities, and to explore the correlation between BMI and physical fitness index (PFI), so as to provide a reference for enhancing physical health levels of university students. Methods: In November 2024, physical fitness test data from 16 631 first year students across four universities in Yinchuan City, Ningxia from 2019 to 2023 were collected by adopting convenience and stratified cluster random sampling methods. The PFI was calculated using the Z score of the physical fitness test results, and a nonlinear quadratic model was established via least squares regression to examine the relationship between BMI and PFI among university students. Results: The BMI for males was (21.69±3.53)kg/m 2, while for females was (20.78±2.94)kg/m 2. The composite score for males physical fitness (69.86±9.25) was lower than that for females (72.24± 8.15 ), with a statistically significant difference ( t =-17.54, P <0.01). Moreover, the failure rates of various physical fitness indicators (vital capacity, sit and reach, standing long jump, pull ups/1 minute sit ups, 1 000 m/800 m run) were higher among males than females ( χ 2=103.48, 72.45, 14.38, 5 134.85, 188.89, all P <0.01). Comparisons across BMI categories revealed that among males, the normal weight group outperformed other groups in the 50 m sprint, standing long jump, 1 000 m sprint, composite score, and PFI ( F =89.17, 113.90, 179.02, 573.35, 593.08); among female students, the normal weight group outperformed other groups in the 50 m sprint, sit and reach, 800 m run, composite score, and PFI ( F =10.67, 19.58 , 96.45, 294.05, 183.45) (all P <0.01). The relationship between BMI and PFI among first year students exhibited a parabolic change trend, students with a moderate BMI demonstrated higher PFI, and as BMI increased, PFI decreased (all P <0.01). Conclusions The physical health level of male students in Ningxia universities is lower than that of female students. There is a correlation between BMI classification and PFI. Tailored intervention measures should be implemented according to the physical characteristics of students across different genders and BMI classifications to enhance university students physical health.

Objective To provide reference for the subsequent clinical application of WBV,based on the impacts of whole body vibration(WBV)with different frequencies on gross motor function and walking function in children with dyskinetic cerebral palsy.Methods 60 children aged 6～12 with dyskinetic cerebral palsy,who had been treated at the department of rehabilitation medicine in the Affiliated Southwest Medical University from October 2021 to November 2022,were selected.They were randomly divided into a control group(n = 20),(25±5)Hz group(n = 20),and(35±5)Hz group(n = 20).All the three groups received conventional rehabilitation,while the(25±5)Hz group received additional WBV with(25±5)Hz and the(35±5)Hz group received WBV with(35±5)Hz.They were treated for eight weeks.The scores on D and E domains of GMFM-88,TUGT,the score on Berg Balance Scale,and footprint analysis were used for assessment of the efficacy after treatment.Results As compared with the baselines,the scores were improved in the three groups after treatment(P＜0.001).BBS(F = 12.502),TUGT(F = 8.211),scores on D and E domains of GMFM-88(F = 12.802 and 8.505),stride length(F = 12.279),1MWT distance(F = 12.619),and step width(F = 13.582)were better in the(35±5)Hz group than in the(25±5)Hz group and the control group(P＜0.05 and P＜0.01);and the efficacy was better in the(25±5)Hz group than in the control group,the difference was statistically significant(P＜0.05 and P＜0.01).Conclusion WBV can improve trunk control,lower limb gross motor function,and walking function in children with involuntary motor type cerebral palsy.(35±5)Hz is better than(25±5)Hz for the efficacy of WBV.

OBJECTIVE To provide reference for strengthening the standardized management of off-label drug use in cancer hospitals. METHODS The evaluation system for off-label drug use was established to standardize the application， approval， and filing process for off-label drug use in our hospital. The changes in off-label drug application quantity， proportion， disease category and drug category in our hospital were compared before （October 1st， 2021-September 30th， 2022） and after （October 1st， 2022- September 30th， 2023） the establishment of the evaluation system； drug items supported by high-level evidence screened by pharmacy department were analyzed statistically. RESULTS The number of off-label drug use applications in our hospital had gradually increased， from 306 pieces in the fourth quarter of 2021 to 3 828 pieces in the third quarter of 2023. In the year before the construction of the evaluation system， there were a total of 4 482 applications for off-label drug use， and in the year after the construction of the evaluation system， there were 11 840 applications for off-label drug use. After the construction of the evaluation system， the proportion of unregistered off-label drug use significantly decreased， compared to the same period last year （P＜0.05）. Among them， there were no unregistered applications for off-label drug use for digestive system tumors， head and neck tumors， and radioactive drugs； lymphoma， breast tumors，urogenital system tumors， cytotoxic drugs and new anti-tumor drugs all had a decrease of over 70% in unregistered off-label drug applications. Twenty-seven off-label drug use items related to 19 drugs supported by high-level evidence were screened by the pharmacy department of our hospital， among which 25 items were drug use beyond indication. CONCLUSIONS The establishment of off-label drug use evaluation system in cancer hospital is helpful to the rational use and refined management of clinical anti-tumor drugs.

The"season-visceral-related"theory originated from Huangdi Neijing,and its content contains the"holism of five viscera"and"correspondence between nature and humans"in the theoretical system of traditional Chinese medicine(TCM).Recently,the prevalence of post-stroke cognitive impairment(PSCI)has gradually increased with the increasing incidence of stroke.TCM believes that PSCI is located in the brain,however,the causative factors such as phlegm,depression,deficiency,and stasis are caused by the lesions of the five zang viscera.Therefore,PSCI can not be treated with the brain alone.Based on the"season-visceral-related"theory,this article discusses the etiology,pathogenesis,and treatment ideas for PSCI from the four seasons and five zang viscera.Xiaoyao Pill was selected as a treatment for patients with qi imbalance in spring to disperse stagnated liver qi to relieve qi stagnation.Tianwang Buxin Dan was selected as a treatment for patients with blood loss and spirit injury in the summer to nourish the blood and calm the heart and brain.Kaixin Powder was selected as a treatment for patients with spleen deficiency and phlegm blockage in late summer to strengthen the spleen,awaken the mind,and remove stasis.Wenfei Jiangzhuo Decoction was selected as a treatment for patients with qi deficiency and spirit departure in autumn to nourish the lungs,reduce turbidity,and nourish the mind.Dihuang Yinzi was selected as a treatment for patients with marrow reduction and internal toxin in winter to expel phlegm and fill the mind.Treating PSCI using the"season-visceral-related"theory reflects the overall concept of TCM and the hypothesis of syndrome differentiation and treatment and provides novel method for treating PSCI.

Objective:To evaluate the reliability and validity of the Chinese version of HEMO-FISS-QoL(HF-QoL) questionnaire (HF-QoL-C) in the Chinese population with hemorrhoids.Methods:From November 2021 to November 2022, a self-constructed general information questionnaire, HF-QoL-C, and the 36-item short form health survey (SF-36), Goligher classification, and Giordano severity of hemorrhoid symptom questionnaire (GSQ) were used to conduct a questionnaire survey on 760 hemorrhoid patients in the anorectal department of six hospitals. The data was analyzed for reliability and validity using SPSS 21.0 and AMOS 26.0 software.Results:The Cronbach's α coefficient of HF-QoL-C and its dimension ranged from 0.831 to 0.960, and the split coefficient was 0.832-0.915. Four common factors were extracted through principal component exploratory factor analysis. Confirmatory factor analysis indicated acceptable structural validity( χ2/ df=8.152, RSMEA=0.097, CFI=0.881, IFI=0.881, NFI=0.867). HF-QoL-C was correlated with SF36 and GSQ( r=-0.694, 0.501, both P<0.01). There were differences in the total score and dimensional scores of HF-QoL-C between surgical and drug treated patients, different grades of Goligher classification for hemorrhoidal disease, and different ranges of hemorrhoid prolapse (all P<0.001). No ceiling effect was found in the total score and the scores of each dimension(0.3%-2.0%). There was a floor effect in both psychological function and sexual activity dimensions (16.7%, 35.1%). Conclusion:HF-QoL-C has good reliability and validity, which can be used to measure the quality of life of Chinese hemorrhoid patients.

ObjectiveTo demonstrate the long-term effect of Yishi Therapy for primary tinnitus and analyze the factors affecting the effectiveness. MethodsWe conducted long-term follow-ups of primary tinnitus cases treated with Yishi Therapy during 1 January 2017 to 30 June 2023 by face-to-face， online and telephone between 1 July 2023 and 31 January 2024， to understand the final regression of primary tinnitus and lifestyle changes. We retrospectively analysed the basic data of patients before treatment， and statistically analysed the recovery rate and overall effective rate of tinnitus treated by the Yishi Therapy， and the factors affecting the effectiveness such as lifestyle， age， duration of disease， gender， tinnitus location， severity of tinnitus， accompanying symptoms and complications on the overall effective rate. ResultsA total of 496 cases of primary tinnitus completed follow-ups successfully， and the total Tinnitus Evaluation Questionnaire （TEQ） at follow-up was significantly lower than that before treatment （P＜0.001）. Among the 496 cases， 101 （20.36%） cases cured， 189 （38.10%） cases showed significant improvement， 116 （23.39%） cases were effective， 90 （18.15%） cases were ineffective， and the overall effect rate was 81.85% （406/496）. At follow-up， the score of lifestyle was higher than that before treatment （P＜0.001）. Grouped by the score of lifestyle at follow-up， the effective rates of better lifestyle group and poor lifestyle group were 97.53% （237/243） and 66.80% （169/253）， respectively， with statistical significance （P＜0.001）. Grouped by the mean value of the difference in lifestyle scores before and after treatment， the effective rates of the group with greater lifestyle adjustment and the group with smaller adjustment were 97.55% （239/245） and 66.53% （167/251）， respectively， and the differences were statistically significant （P＜0.001）. Binary logistic regression showed that the better lifestyle， the greater lifestyle adjustment and the severity of tinnitus were positively correlated with the total effective rate of tinnitus （P＜0.001）， while older and hearing loss were negatively correlated with the total effective rate of tinnitus （P＜0.05）. ConclusionYishi Therapy on primary tinnitus shows good long-term effect， lifestyle， severity of tinnitus， hearing loss or not， age are the relevant factors affecting the efficacy of tinnitus， lifestyle is the main factor affecting clinical efficacy.
