Objective:
To explore impacts of sports games designed based on the information-motivation-behavioral skills model (IMB) on prosocial behavior in children with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD) attending regular classes, so as to provide a theoretical basis for promoting the development of prosocial behavior in school age IDD children.
Methods:
From February to March 2023, 40 children with intellectual disabilities aged 8-9 who were enrolled in ordinary schools in Beijing were recruited by using WeChat parents to send messages. They were randomly divided into an experimental group (19 before intervention, 17 after intervention) and a control group (19 before intervention, 19 after intervention) by lottery method. During the study period, children in both groups received the same frequency and quality of regular physical activities. The experimental group, in addition, underwent a 13 week sports game intervention based on the IMB model, 4 times a week, each session lasting 50 minutes. The sports game intervention scheme based on IMB model was divided into two modules,including basic training and development training:low difficulty sports game intervention based on emotion recognition, and medium low difficulty and medium difficulty sports game intervention based on social training such as "prosocial". The Griffith Empathy Measure (GEM) and the Prosocial Behavior Scale for Adolescents (PBSA) were used to assess empathy ability and prosocial behavior levels of children in both groups before and after the intervention.
Results:
After intervention, the cognitive empathy dimension, emotional empathy dimension and total score of GEM in the experimental group (39.15±2.85, 38.54±1.94, 77.69±3.95) were higher than control group (32.18±4.18, 32.28± 4.28, 64.56±6.48) and before intervention (33.92±4.94, 31.30±4.61, 65.23±8.47), and the differences were statistically significant ( F =12.06, 6.99, 14.90; 8.95, 7.36, 13.22, P <0.05). After intervention, compliance with public welfare factors, trait factors and total score (31.33±1.97, 16.67±1.03, 71.83±2.93) were higher than control group (22.65±1.58, 12.59±0.71, 59.47± 2.18 ) and before intervention (22.00±1.27, 12.17±0.75, 58.00±1.67), and the differences were statistically significant ( F = 17.00 , 36.54, 12.71; 29.87, 13.09, 13.12, P <0.05).
Conclusion
Sports game intervention based on IMB model can effectively promote the development of prosocial behavior of children with IDD attending regular classes.

OBJECTIVE To compare the efficacy and safety of different daily doses of aspirin in the prevention of preeclampsia (PE). METHODS The case-control studies and prospective randomized controlled trials on aspirin with daily dose ≥ 100 mg (trial group) vs. <100 mg (control group) in the prevention of PE were retrieved from PubMed, Medline, Embase, the Cochrane Library, CNKI, China Biomedical Literatue Database and Wanfang Data from base-building to January 2025. After literature screening, data extraction and quality evaluation, meta-analysis was performed by using RevMan 5.3 software. RESULTS A total of 11 literatures were included, involving 3 052 pregnant women. Meta-analysis showed the incidence of PE [RR=0.63, 95%CI (0.53,0.76), P<0.000 01], gestational hypertension [RR=0.69, 95%CI (0.50,0.94),P=0.02], preterm birth [RR=0.56, 95%CI (0.47,0.66), P<0.000 01], and intrauterine growth retardation [RR=0.73,95%CI (0.61,0.87),P=0.000 5] in trial groups were significantly lower than control group. The incidence of postpartum hemorrhage between the two groups had no statistically significant difference [RR=1.17, 95%CI (0.90,1.53),P=0.25]. Subgroup analysis showed that the incidence of PE in Chinese pregnant women taking 150 mg of aspirin was significantly higher than taking 100 mg of aspirin [RR=3.40, 95%CI (1.29, 8.93), P=0.01]; but there was no significant difference between the two groups in the incidences of postpartum hemorrhage, preterm birth (P>0.05). CONCLUSIONS Aspirin with daily dose ≥100 mg is more effective in preventing PE than daily dose <100 mg, with lower rates of gestational hypertension, preterm birth, and intrauterine growth retardation. It does not increase the risk of postpartum hemorrhage. For pregnant women in China, daily dose 100 mg of aspirin may be more effective in preventing PE than 150 mg.

ObjectiveTo investigate the ameliorative effects of quercetin on neuropsychiatric symptoms associated with vascular dementia (VaD) and to elucidate the molecular mechanism, specifically whether quercetin inhibits pro-inflammatory activation of microglia by modulation of the receptor-interacting serine/threonine-protein kinase 1 (RIPK1)/NOD-like receptor protein 3 (NLRP3)/Caspase-1 signaling pathway, thereby promoting myelin repair in the medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC). MethodsA C57BL/6J mouse model of VaD with neuropsychiatric symptoms was established by bilateral common carotid artery stenosis (BCAS) combined with chronic restraint stress (CRS). Mice were randomly divided into a sham group, a model group, low-dose, medium-dose, and high-dose quercetin groups (30, 60, 120 mg·kg-1·d-1), and a fluoxetine group (10 mg·kg-1·d-1). After intervention, depressive- and anxiety-like behaviors were assessed by the sucrose preference test (SPT), forced swim test (FST), open field test (OFT), and elevated plus maze (EPM). mPFC tissue was collected. Immunofluorescence (IF) was used to detect myelin basic protein (MBP) expression and microglial morphology. Western blot was used to measure the protein level of MBP, myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein (MOG), myelin-associated glycoprotein (MAG), inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS), CD86, RIPK1, phosphorylated RIPK1 (Ser166), NLRP3, and Caspase-1. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was used to determine the level of tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α), interleukin-6 (IL-6), and interleukin-1β (IL-1β). ResultsCompared with the sham group, the model group exhibited significant depressive- and anxiety-like behaviors (P<0.01), significantly decreased protein expression of MBP, MOG, and MAG in the mPFC (P<0.01), activated microglia (characterized by enlarged cell bodies, reduced protrusions, and upregulated iNOS and CD86 expressions, P<0.01), and significantly elevated p-RIPK1/RIPK1 ratio, NLRP3, Caspase-1 protein expression, and level of TNF-α, IL-6, and IL-1β (P<0.01, P<0.05). Compared with the model group, the quercetin treatment (especially at medium and high doses) significantly ameliorated these behavioral abnormalities (P<0.05, P<0.01), increased the expression of MBP (protein and fluorescence intensity), MOG, and MAG in the mPFC (P<0.05, P<0.01), suppressed excessive microglial activation (characterized decreased cell bodies, increased protrusions, and downregulated iNOS and CD86 expressions, P<0.01), and significantly reduced the p-RIPK1/RIPK1 ratio, NLRP3, Caspase-1 protein expression, and inflammatory cytokine levels (P<0.01). ConclusionQuercetin effectively alleviates neuropsychiatric symptoms in VaD mice. Its mechanism may be associated with the inhibition of microglial inflammatory activation mediated by the RIPK1/NLRP3/Caspase-1 signaling pathway, thereby promoting myelin repair in the mPFC region.

Objective:To evaluate inflammation early in the infarct zone and its dynamic changes after acute myocardial infarction (AMI) using 18F-FDG PET imaging, and analyze its relationship with left ventricular remodeling progression (LVRP). Methods:Sixteen Bama miniature pigs (4-6 months old, 8 females) were selected. AMI models were established by balloon occlusion of the left anterior descending artery. 18F-FDG PET imaging was performed before AMI and at days 1, 5, 8, and 14 post-AMI to evaluate the regional inflammation response. 18F-FDG SUV ratio (SUVR) and the percentage of uptake area of left ventricle (F-extent) in the infarct zone, and the SUVRs of the spleen and bone marrow, were measured. Echocardiography and 99Tc m-methoxyisobutylisonitrile(MIBI) SPECT myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI) were performed at the above time points and on day 28 post-AMI to assess left ventricular end-diastolic volume (LVEDV), left ventricular end-systolic volume (LVESV), left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), and myocardial perfusion defect extent. The degree of LVRP at day 28 post-AMI was defined as ΔLVESV(%)=(LVESV AMI 28 d-LVESV AMI 1 d)/LVESV AMI 1 d×100%. Data were analyzed using repeated measures analysis of variance, Kruskal-Wallis rank sum test and Pearson correlation analysis. Results:Twelve pigs were successfully modeled and completed the study. Inflammation in the infarct zone persisted until day 14 post-AMI. The SUVR of the infarct zone pre-AMI and at days 1, 5, 8, and 14 post-AMI were 1.03±0.08, 3.49±1.06, 2.93±0.90, 2.38±0.76, and 1.63±0.62, respectively ( F=49.31, P<0.001). The F-extent values in the infarct zone pre-AMI and at days 1, 5, 8, and 14 post-AMI were 0, (40.08±12.46)%, (40.00±12.76)%, (31.08±12.82)%, and 16.50%(7.25%, 22.00%), respectively ( H=37.61, P=0.001). There were no significant differences in the SUVRs of bone marrow and spleen before and after AMI ( F values: 0.69 and 0.77, both P>0.05). At day 1 post-AMI, both SUVR and F-extent in the infarct zone were significantly correlated with LVRP ( r values: 0.82 and 0.70, P values: 0.001 and 0.035). Conclusions:18F-FDG PET imaging can be used to evaluate inflammation in the infarct area and its dynamic changes after AMI. Inflammation in the infarct area is severe at day 1, and then gradually decreases. The extent and severity of inflammation visible on 18F-FDG PET imaging 1 d after AMI are closely related to LVRP.

Objective:To analyze the existing problems in maternal and child health services in Shanghai′s communities, so as to provide references for the continuous improvement and enhancement of maternal and child health work in community.Methods:Retrieve relevant literature on community maternal and child health services in Shanghai from databases such as CNKI, Wanfang, VIP, Chinese biomedical literature database and PubMed for text analysis, with a search period from 2009 to 2023. From August 2022 to May 2023, a purposive sampling method was used to select community health service centers in Shanghai for participatory observation. Interviews were conducted with maternal and child health service providers in community, management personnel at all levels, and obstetric experts from tertiary hospitals participating in the construction of medical alliances to understand the problems that exist in the process of providing maternal and child health services in community service centers. Based on text analysis, participatory observation, and interview results, a structure-process-outcome theory model was used to sort out a list of problems of maternal and child health services in Shanghai′s community. An electronic questionnaire was created based on the list of questions, and maternal and child health service personnel in each jurisdiction were invited to rate the existing problems from three aspects: importance, severity, and solvability. The key issues was determined based on the total score of each problem.Results:A list of 24 issues related to maternal and child health services in Shanghai′s community has been formed, with the structural dimension including team building and hardware facilities, the process dimension including mechanism construction, implementation process, and institutional coordination, and the result dimension only including system result category. According to the survey results, the three key questions with a total score greater than 7 were identified as the need for improvement in the maternal and child health knowledge and skills of service personnel; Insufficient staffing of service personnel, lack of dedicated personnel and specialized talents; The health information platform was not well-established, and institutions could not fully and timely share diagnosis and treatment data.Conclusions:This study has identified a problem list for maternal and child health care services in Shanghai′s communities, as well as key issues that urgently need to be addressed, which can provide reference for improving the quality of maternal and child health care services in Shanghai′s communities.

Objective This paper summarizes and evaluates the existing animal models of Post-infectious irritable bowel syndrome(PI-IBS)based on the clinical diagnostic criteria and symptom characteristics of PI-IBS in Chinese and western medicine.The goal of this study is to seek out animal models with a high degree of clinical agreement between Chinese and western medicine,and to provide an accurate animal model for the prevention and treatment of PI-IBS in traditional Chinese medicine.Methods The animal strains,modelling methods,and mechanisms of the existing PI-IBS animal models were summarized based on the clinical diagnostic features and symptomatology of PI-IBS,as well as the degree of match was evaluated and the strengths and weaknesses of the preparation of animal models were analyzed,by reviewing the articles related to PI-IBS animal experiments and the preparation of animal models.Results A thorough analysis discovered that Campylobacter jejuni infection model,Trichinella infection model,and liver depression and spleen deficiency syndrome in models of disease and symptom combination showed a comparatively high level of clinical agreement between Chinese and western medicine.Conclusion The existing PI-IBS models had the high degree of coincidence with western medicine,Chinese medicine four diagnoses and syndrome are generally less embodied and collected in the modeling process.The primary symptoms in Chinese medicine diagnosis are primarily based on the observation of animal apparent behaviors,while the observation of the sub-syndrome manifestations is relatively less,which results in failure of judgment of TCM syndrome types.Therefore,it is still necessary to further standardize the criteria for evaluating symptoms and the techniques for identifying disease-syndrome combination animal models.PI-IBS model with the syndrome-clinical characteristics in Chinese and western medicine has significant application value and prospects in the future.The multifactorial composite method of western medicine pathological injury+Chinese medicine etiological stimulation can establish a PI-IBS model with a higher degree of coincidence,which can provide theoretical support for the study of the pathogenesis of PI-IBS,the difference of syndrome,and the prevention and treatment with integrative Chinese and western medicine.It is crucial to guide the clinical diagnosis and treatment of PI-IBS.

ObjectiveTo evaluate the validity of four screening questionnaires on chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) among community residents in Shanghai, and to provide a scientific basis for selecting suitable screening questionnaires and plans for the community use. MethodsA multi-stage random sampling method was used to select community residents aged ≥40 for COPD questionnaire screening and spirometry. The screening questionnaires included the COPD Population Screener Questionnaire (COPD-PS), the COPD Screening Questionnaire (COPD-SQ), the COPD Diagnosis Questionnaire (CDQ), and the Lung Function Questionnaire (LFQ). The diagnostic gold standard for COPD was defined as a ratio of post-bronchodilator forced expiratory volume in one second to forced vital capacity (FEV1/FVC) less than 0.7. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was used to assess the validity of each questionnaire, and DeLong’s test was used to compare the area under the curve (AUC) of different questionnaires. ResultsAmong the 1 122 residents screened, 99 (8.8%) were diagnosed with COPD based on the gold standard criteria. The AUC values for the four questionnaires ranged from 0.643 to 0.682, with no statistically significant differences in screening accuracy among them (P>0.05). The sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value (PPV), and negative predictive value (NPV) for each questionnaire at recommended cut-off points were as follows: COPD-PS (sensitivity: 33.3%, specificity: 84.9%, PPV: 17.6%, NPV: 92.9%), COPD-SQ (34.3%, 85.8%, 19.0%, 93.1%), CDQ (73.7%, 42.4%, 11.0%, 94.4%), and LFQ (48.5%, 74.8%, 15.7%, 93.8%). Optimal cut-off values for this population differed from the recommended values. When selecting the optimal cut-off value, the sensitivity of COPD-PS (58.6%), COPD-SQ (55.6%), and LFQ (64.7%) increased, while the specificity of CDQ (75.9%) increased. The AUC of sequential lung function testing for all four screening questionnaires increased to 0.7 or above. The optimal cut-off values for the four questionnaires in this population differed from the recommended values. When applying the optimal cut-off values, the sensitivity of three questionnaires increased: COPD-PS (58.6%), COPD-SQ (55.6%), and LFQ (64.7%), while the specificity of CDQ rose to 75.9%. The AUC of each questionnaire increased to above 0.7 when followed by sequential lung function testing. ConclusionThe COPD-PS, COPD-SQ, CDQ, and LFQ have limited value for COPD screening among Shanghai community residents, indicating that further refinement of these tools is needed.

Zuoguiyin, which first recorded in Jingyue Quanshu written by ZHANG Jiebin in the Ming dynasty, was included in the Catalogue of Ancient Famous Classical Formulas(The Second Batch). This study followed the Principles of Textual Research on Key Information of Ancient Famous Classical Formulas to determine the key information of Zuoguiyin in ancient and modern literature, such as the formula origin, the composition of the formula and the origin of the drugs. It was found that the composition, dosage, preparation and processing methods of Zuoguiyin were basically the same as the original formula. The original dosage of this formula is 41.03 g of Rehmanniae Radix Praeparata(the fresh or dried tuberous roots of Rehmannia glutinosa, processed by wine stewing or wine steaming), 7.46 g of Dioscoreae Rhizoma(the dried rhizomes of Dioscorea opposita), 7.46 g of Lycii Fructus(the dried mature fruit of Lycium barbarum), 3.73 g of Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma Praeparata cum Melle(the dried roots and rhizomes of Glycyrrhiza uralensis, processed by honey-roasted method), 5.595 g of Poria(the sclerotium of Poria cocos), 5.595 g of Corni Fructus(the dried mature fruit pulp of Cornus officinalis). The method of administration is to add 600 mL of water to all the herbs, decoct to 140 mL and take before meals. The function of Zuoguiyin is to nourish Yin and tonify the kidney, and it is often used in the treatment of lumbar soreness and ejaculation, night sweating, dry mouth and throat, thirst and desire to drink, glossy red tongue, thin and rapid pulse, etc. Since ancient times, Zuoguiyin has been used to treat a variety of internal and gynaecological diseases as well as diseases of the nervous, circulatory and reproductive systems that are predominantly caused by kidney Yin deficiency. However, there is not much research on the modern application and therapeutic mechanism of this formula, and there is no standardized preparation in the market, so the degree of development and utilization is not high, and there is still a lot of room for research.
