OBJECTIVE To systematically evaluate the influencing factors affecting the poor prognosis of drug-induced liver injury （DILI） in the Chinese population， and to provide evidence-based support for early identification and interventions of DILI. METHODS Retrieved from PubMed， Medline， Embase， the Cochrane Library， CNKI， Wanfang database， China biomedical medicine database （CBM） and VIP， clinical studies （case-control studies， cohort studies） related to influencing factors for poor prognosis of DILI were collected from inception to May 31， 2025. After literature screening， data extraction and quality evaluation of included studies， meta-analysis was carried out by using RevMan 5.4 software. RESULTS A total of 17 literature were included， involving 4 078 DILI patients， of whom 673 were in the poor prognosis group and 3 405 were in the favorable prognosis group. Meta-analysis showed that history of liver disease （OR＝2.47， 95%CI was 1.61-3.78， P ＜0.001）， alcohol drinking history （OR＝1.77， 95%CI was 1.22-2.56， P ＝0.003）， Chinese herbal medicine/Chinese patent medicine （OR＝1.87， 95%CI was 1.30-2.70， P ＜0.001）， non-hepatocellular injury type （OR＝1.70， 95%CI was 1.37-2.10， P ＜0.001）， international normalized ratio （INR） elevated （OR＝2.51， 95%CI was 1.97-3.19， P ＜0.001）， and alanine transamine （ALT） elevated （OR＝1.27， 95%CI was 1.14-1.41， P ＜0.001） were risk factors of poor prognosis in DILI. Higher albumin （ALB） level （OR＝0.47， 95%CI was 0.39-0.57， P ＜0.001）， elevated prothrombin activity （PTA） （OR＝0.88， 95%CI was 0.85-0.91， P ＜0.001） and more than 2 kinds of hepatoprotective drugs （OR＝0.62， 95%CI was 0.41-0.95， P ＝0.030） were protective factors for poor prognosis of DILI. CONCLUSIONS Patients with alcohol drinking history， history of liver disease， elevated INR， elevated ALT， taking Chinese herbal medicine/Chinese patent medicine， and non-hepatocellular injury type of DILI have a greater risk of poor prognosis， and higher ALB level， higher PTA and more than 2 kinds of hepatoprotective drugs can reduce the risk of poor prognosis of DILI.

ObjectiveMicrotube associated protein-2 （MAP-2）， alpha-tubulin （α-tubulin）， and synaptophysin （SYP） are important proteins in neuronal signal communication. This paper observed the effects of modified Zhigancao Tang on the expression of serum α-Synuclein （α-Syn） and its oligomers， MAP-2， α-tubulin， and SYP of patients with liver and kidney deficiency of Parkinson's disease （PD）， analyzed their correlation， and evaluated the therapeutic effect of modified Zhigancao Tang in patients with liver and kidney deficiency of PD based on α-Syn transmission pathway mediated by neuronal communication in vivo. MethodsA total of 60 patients with PD who met the inclusion criteria were randomly divided into a treatment group （30 cases） and a control group （30 cases）. Both groups were treated on the basis of PD medicine， and the treatment group was treated with modified Zhigancao Tang. Both groups were treated for 12 weeks. The changes in UPDRS score， TCM syndrome score， and expression of serum α-Syn and its oligomers， MAP-2， α-tubulin， and SYP were observed before and after 12 weeks of treatment in each group. The correlation between the above-mentioned serum biological indexes and the levels of serum α-Syn and its oligomers was analyzed. ResultsAfter treatment， the TCM syndrome score， UPDRS score， UPDRS-Ⅱ score， and UPDRS-Ⅲ score of the treatment group were significantly decreased （P<0.05， P<0.01）. The UPDRS score， UPDRS-Ⅱ score， and UPDRS-Ⅲ scores in the treatment group were significantly decreased compared with those in the control group after treatment （P<0.05）. After treatment， the total effective rate of the control group was 63.3% （19/30）， and that of the treatment group was 86.7% （26/30）. The clinical effect of the observation group was better than the control group （Z=-2.03， P<0.05）. The total effective rate of the observation group was better than that of the control group， and the difference was statistically significant （χ²=5.136， P<0.05）. After treatment， the oligomer level of serum α-Syn and MAP-2 level in the treatment group were significantly decreased （P<0.05， P<0.01）. The levels of serum α-Syn and its oligomers， as well as α-tubulin in the treatment group， were significantly decreased compared with those in the control group after treatment （P<0.05， P<0.01）. Serum α-Syn was correlated with serum MAP-2 and α-Syn oligomer in patients with PD （P<0.05， P<0.01） but not correlated with serum SYP . Serum α-Syn oligomers of patients with PD were correlated with serum MAP-2 and α-tubulin （P<0.05， P<0.01） but not correlated with serum SYP level. Serum SYP of patients with PD was correlated with serum MAP-2 （P<0.05）. ConclusionModified Zhigancao Tang has a therapeutic effect on patients with liver and kidney deficiency of PD by inhibiting the production of α-Syn oligomers and intervening α-Syn microtubule transport pathway in vivo.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the risk factors for carbapenem-resistant gram-negative bacteria(GNB)bloodstream infection(BSI)in patients with hematological malignancies(HMs)and their prognosis,and to devel-op a nomogram prediction model.METHODS A total of 316 patients with HMs and GNB-BSI admitted to the First Affiliated Hospital of Xi'an Jiaotong University from Jan.2017 to Dec.2022 were selected as the training set,and 106 patients admitted from Jan.2023 to Oct.2024 were selected as the validation set.Variables were selected by lasso regression and multifactor logistic regression,and a nomogram model was constructed.The prediction model was internally validated by the receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve,calibration curve and decision curve analysis(DCA),respectively.RESULTS Granulocytopenia for ≥7 days(OR=14.525),use of cephalosporins/β-lactamase inhibitors within 30 days before BSI(OR=3.510),exposure history of carbapenem antibacterial drug(OR=4.840)and albumin＜30 g/L(OR=2.697)were risk factors for CR-GNB BSI in patients with HMs(P＜0.05).Septic shock(OR=6.934),central venous catheterization(OR=5.586),inappropriate empirical antibac-terial drug therapy(OR=4.744),CR-GNB infection(OR=2.916)and albumin＜30 g/L(OR=3.324)were risk factors for 30-day mortality in patients with HMs and GNB-BSI(P＜0.05).Based on these indicators,two nomogram models were constructed.The areas under the ROC curve(AUC)for the internal validation set were 0.775 and 0.849,respectively.The calibration curves demonstrated high predictive performance for the pre-diction models(P=0.998 and 0.660,respectively),and DCA showed high clinical application value for both models.CONCLUSION The nomogram prediction model constructed in this study based on multifactor analy-sis not only demonstrates good predictive value but also exhibits significant clinical efficacy,aiding in the early i-dentification of high-risk patients for targeted therapy.

Objective To evaluate the impact of healthcare-associated infection(HAI)control culture construction on the hand hygiene(HH)compliance of health care workers(HCWs),and provide a basis for strengthening HAI management.Methods HCWs in a hospital in Xi'an City were selected as the research objects.On the occasion of World HH Day,a series of publicity activities on HH as well as HAI prevention and control were held.Pre-activi-ties period was April 1-30,2024.During May 1-31,2024,a series of publicity activities on HH as well as HAI prevention and control were carried out.The post-activities investigation period was June 1-30,2024.During De-cember 1-31,2024,HH compliance survey was carried out in batches in the whole hospital(including key depart-ments).HH compliance at different stages was compared.Results After a series of publicity activities on HH as well as HAI prevention and control,HCWs'HH compliance rate was improved.HH compliance rate of nursing staff increased from 70.15％to 85.11％;HH compliance rate of HCWs before contacting with patients increased from 47.83％to 78.38％;both with statistically significant difference(both P＜0.05).During December 1-31,2024,a batch survey on HH compliance of the whole hospital(including key departments)showed that the HH compliance rates of medical and nursing staff in key departments were higher than those of the whole hospital,and the differences were statistically significant(all P＜0.05).HH compliance rates before aseptic operation and after contacting with patients in key departments were both higher than those of the whole hospital,and the differences were statistically significant(all P＜0.05).Conclusion Publicity activities on HH as well as HAI prevention con-trol can improve HH compliance rate of HCWs.HAI managers should pay more attention to the general depart-ments and improve HH compliance rate of HCWs.

Objective:To investigate whether continued low-dose aspirin (LDA) intervention affects the incidence of pre-eclampsia (PE) and adverse pregnancy outcomes in pregnant women with high-risk PE screening in the first trimester and reassessed as low risk at 28 weeks of gestation.Methods:This study was a prospective observational cohort study. From April 2022 to April 2024, a total of 106 pregnant women who underwent prenatal examination in the Affiliated Jiangyin Hospital of Nantong University were enrolled. They were assessed as high risk of PE by multiple indicators combined screening at 11-13 +6 weeks of gestation, received LDA intervention, and were reassessed as low risk of PE at 28 weeks of gestation. The patients were divided into withdrawal group (49 cases) and continuation group (57 cases). The incidence of PE and adverse pregnancy outcomes were compared between the two groups. Results:(1) There were no statistically significant differences in general conditions and the incidence of pregnancy complications between the two groups (all P>0.05). During the PE risk screening at 11-13 +6 weeks of gestation, there were no statistically significant differences in mean arterial pressure (MAP) and ultrasound uterine artery pulsation index (UtPI) between the two groups (all P>0.05), but the placental growth factor (PlGF) level in the withdrawal group was significantly lower than that in the continuation group ( P=0.023). There was no significant difference in the proportion of pregnant women with high risk of PE before 32 weeks and 34 weeks of pregnancy between the two groups (all P>0.05). (2) There were 7 cases (14%, 7/49) of PE in the withdrawal group, including 1 case (2%, 1/49) of early-onset PE and 3 cases (6%, 3/49) of PE before 37 weeks of pregnancy. There were 11 cases (19%, 11/57) of PE in the continuation group, including 2 cases (4%, 2/57) of early-onset PE and 4 cases (7%, 4/57) of PE before 37 weeks of pregnancy. There were no significant differences in the incidence of PE (including early-onset PE and PE before 37 weeks of pregnancy), gestational hypertension, severe PE, chronic hypertension complicated with PE and chronic hypertension complicated with pregnancy between the two groups (all P>0.05). (3) There were no significant differences in cesarean section rate, preterm birth rate, placental abruption, postpartum hemorrhage, fetal growth restriction, fetal distress rate, neonatal birth weight, neonatal asphyxia, and 1-minute and 5-minute Apgar scores between the two groups (all P>0.05). No stillbirth occurred in the two groups. Conclusion:For pregnant women with high risk of PE screening in the first trimester and taking LDA intervention, there is no difference in the incidence of PE and adverse pregnancy outcomes whether to continue LDA or not after being reassessed as low risk at 28 weeks of gestation.

To investigate the clinical symptoms and endoscopic features of rectal benign lymphoid polyps, a retrospective analysis was conducted on 15 consecutive cases (16 lesions) who underwent endoscopic resection at the First Affiliated Hospital of Shandong First Medical University between April 2015 and June 2023, with postoperative pathological confirmation of rectal benign lymphoid polyps. The results showed that among the 15 patients, 6 were male and 9 were female, with a mean age of 52.6 years. Colonoscopy was performed in 8 patients due to clinical symptoms, among whom 7 presented with abdominal pain. All 16 lesions were submucosal, including 14 solitary and 1 multiple. The lesions were located in the lower rectum ( n=10) and mid-rectum ( n=6), with a mean long diameter of 0.5 cm. Fourteen lesions exhibited regular shape as flat circles or hemispheres. The surface mucosa appeared normal or gray-white in 11 lesions, and varying degrees of capillary dilation were observed in 8 lesions, among which 2 exhibited prominent capillaries resembling a "wheel-shaped" pattern. Endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS) was performed in 10 lesions prior to endoscopic resection: 4 originated from the third layer, 3 from the second layer, and 3 from both the second and third layers. Five lesions appeared as homogeneous hypoechoic masses, 3 were hyperechoic, and 2 showed mixed echogenicity. Therefore, the clinical symptoms of rectal benign lymphoid polyps are non-specific. Endoscopically, the presence of "wheel-shaped" pattern of dilated capillaries may serve as a diagnostic clue. When EUS demonstrates hyperechoic or mixed echogenicity, it could aid in the differential diagnosis from rectal neuroendocrine neoplasms.

The menopausal age is one of the important menopausal factors, and women of different menopausal ages have different risks of diabetes. This study reviewed the evidence from prospective studies on the association between the age at natural menopause and diabetes risk, both domestically and internationally, and presented its research design and main findings. Advanced menopause, especially premature and early menopause, will increase the risk of diabetes in postmenopausal women. The research on the influence of delayed menopause on the incidence of diabetes is still insufficient. Many factors may modify the association between menopausal age and the risk of diabetes.

The advancement of surgical techniques enables effective treatment for many patients with oral and maxillofacial tumors.How-ever,post-surgery problems such as chewing,swallowing and speech difficulty may arise due to the defects in speech organs and inade-quate compensatory function of tissue flap repair.Speech disorders,in particular,isolate patients by making it difficult for them to com-municate with others,not only impact their quality of life but also potentially lead to psychological problems and social interaction disor-ders.Although the decline in life quality and other related issues caused by speech dysfunction due to surgery and radiotherapy or chemo-therapy have been widely recognized,there is currently no standardized and universally applicable assessment method and standardized re-habilitation treatment management guideline or consensus for speech disorders following oral and maxillofacial tumor surgery at home and abroad.Based on previous clinical practice,combined with the characteristics of speech disorders in patients after oral and maxillofacial tumor surgery,the clinical experience of the experts in maxillofacial tumor surgery and rehabilitation and the relevant domestic and foreign literature,relevant experts organized discussions and modifications,reach a consensus on core content such as the assessment of speech disorders and the implementation plan for early rehabilitation treatment management,providing a reference for clinical practice,in order to improve patients'speech-related life quality and enhance the assessment and rehabilitation treatment techniques for speech disorders after oral and maxillofacial tumor surgery.

To summarize Professor GAO Shuzhong's clinical experience in treating idiopathic tinnitus with a combination of acupuncture and Chinese meteria medica. It is believed that idiopathic tinnitus is mostly caused by weak lungs and spleen， kidney essence deficiency， liver constraint transforming into fire， and binding constraint of heart qi. Treatment advocates the combination of acupuncture and Chinese meteria medica in clinical practice. Acupuncture treatment mainly focus on the method of opening the orifices by syndrome identification in combination with Ermen （TE 21）， Tinggong （SI 19）， Tinghui （GB 2）， Shenmai （BL 62） to regulate qi and blood， and supporting with Baihui （GV 20）， Yintang （EX-HN 3）， Taichong （LR 3）， and Yanglingquan （GB 34） to soothe the liver， resolve constraint， and calm the mind. Oral administration of Chinese medicinal prescription usually includes modified Yiqi Congming Decoction （益气聪明汤） and Tongqi Powder （通气散）， and the external administration of Chinese medicinal prescription can apply self-prescribed Wenqing Powder （温清散） to navel moxibustion.
