Objective To explore the efficacy and safety of oral solution of magnesium sodium potassium sulfate in bowel preparation before colonoscopy. Methods Patients who planned to undergo colonoscopy at the digestive department of the Ninth People’s Hospital, affiliated to School of Medicine of Shanghai Jiao Tong University from January 2023 to August 2023 were selected and eligible subjects were divided into two groups: Group A took polyethylene glycol (PEG) and Group B took oral solution of magnesium sodium potassium sulfate (OSS). The quality, drug tolerance, and safety of intestinal preparation were evaluated. The quality of bowel preparation was evaluated by the boston bowel preparation scale (BBPS). Results The right colon BBPS score of Group B was (2.39±0.82) points, which was significantly higher than of Group A (2.11±0.43) points (P<0.05). The overall score of Group B was higher than that of Group A (P<0.05). OSS was easier to take than PEG, with a good taste and overall sensation. Patients were willing to use OSS to clean their bowels even when they were willing to undergo another examination (P<0.05). There was a significant difference in nausea and vomiting symptoms between the two groups (P<0.05), and there were no significant changes in renal function and electrolytes before and after medication in the two groups of patients. Conclusion OSS had a higher quality of bowel cleaning and was easier for patients to accept.

Objective To analyze the clinical and therapeutic characteristics of Epstein-Barr virus (EBV)-negative posttransplant lymphoproliferative disease (PTLD) with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) in the context of specific cases and literature. Methods A case of EBV-negative DLBCL (GCB type) after kidney transplantation is reported. The patient was a 45-year-old male who underwent living-related kidney transplantation in 2016 and has been receiving triple immunosuppressive therapy with tacrolimus, mycophenolate mofetil and methylprednisolone since then. In 2024, the patient presented with intermittent fever, night sweats and gastrointestinal symptoms. The diagnosis was confirmed by endoscopic pathology, immunohistochemical staining and positron emission tomography/computed tomography. The R-CDOP regimen (rituximab + cyclophosphamide + liposomal doxorubicin + vincristine + dexamethasone) was used for treatment. Results The patient was diagnosed with EBV-negative DLBCL (GCB type, Ann Arbor stage Ⅳ B). After 4 cycles of R-CDOP chemotherapy, the efficacy assessment was partial remission, and the transplant kidney function remained stable. Conclusions For EBV-negative PTLD after kidney transplantation, it is necessary to break through the "virus-dependent" diagnostic thinking. In clinical practice, the focus should be on protecting the transplant kidney, and individualized treatment plans should be developed for patients.

Purpose:
This study aimed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of gemcitabine and cisplatin (GP) regimen in combination with immune checkpoint inhibitor sintilimab as neoadjuvant therapy for muscle-invasive bladder cancer (MIBC) patients and the feasibility of the following selective bladder sparing surgery.
Materials and Methods:
Patients with histopathologically confirmed urothelial carcinoma without distant metastases (T2-4a, N ≤ 1, M0, American Joint Committee of Cancer 8th) and with adequate organ function will be enrolled. The therapeutic regimen was sintilimab 200 mg once on day 8, gemcitabine 1,000 mg/m2 and cisplatin 35 mg/m2 once on days 1 and 8, every 21 days for four cycles. The primary endpoint was pathologic complete response (pCR, pT0N0) rate. The secondary end points were ypT < 2 rate, R0 resection rate, event-free survival, and safety.
Results:
From May 4, 2020, to May 20, 2023, 55 patients were enrolled. Forty-six patients were evaluated for efficacy. Among the 42 patients who underwent surgery, 16 patients (38.0%) achieved pCR. Thirty-three patients (78.6%) achieved pT < 2. With a median follow-up of 15.7 months, the 1-year event-free survival was 91.3%. Notwithstanding the poor pathological baseline characteristic of a high T3-T4a proportion (39.1%), a promising bladder preservation (including 22 patients transurethral resection of bladder tumor, 5 patients partial cystectomy, and 4 surveillances) rate was achieved (67.4%). The most common grade ≥ 3 treatment-related adverse events was neutropenia (n=15, 27.3%), which was related to chemotherapy. There were no grade 3 immune-related adverse events.
Conclusion
Neoadjuvant GP plus sintilimab is a promising regimen for MIBC patients, with relatively high pT < 2 rate and triggering the emerging roles for the multi-disciplinary team decision-making for bladder sparing surgery.

Objective To explore the feasibility of magnetic compression technique (MCR) in the treatment of severe single mid-ureteral stricture in a rabbit model. Methods After 10 female New Zealand rabbits were selected, the distal end of the right ureter was ligated with silk thread. Two weeks after the operation, when the right ureter was dilated, the mid-ureter was ligated again with silk thread to create a severe single mid-ureteral stricture animal model. Longitudinal incisions were made at the upper and lower ends of the ligation site, and cylindrical NdFeB magnets with central holes (sub-magnets and main magnets) were placed to anastomose and recanalize the mid-ureteral stricture. The magnets were adjusted to the appropriate position to automatically align and attract each other. The longitudinal incision sites of the ureter were sutured with 6-0 Prolene thread, and the abdominal cavity was closed layer by layer. The operation time was recorded. X-ray films were taken every two days to confirm the position of the magnets and record the time of magnet detachment. Three weeks after the operation, the anastomotic specimens were obtained, and the formation of the anastomosis was evaluated with gross observation and histological staining. Results Two weeks after ligation, all experimental rabbits showed obvious dilation of the right ureter. The mid-ureteral ligation and placement of the male and female magnets were successfully completed in all 10 experimental rabbits, with an operation time of (24.00±5.15)minutes. The male and female magnets attracted each other well. X-ray examination showed that the magnets detached and entered the distal ureter (14.0±1.9) days after magnetic compression. The recanalization of the severe single mid-ureteral stricture was successfully achieved. The gross specimens and histological examination of the anastomosis showed that the anastomosis remained patent and the mucosal healing was good. All experimental rabbits survived well after the operation without serious complications. Conclusion MCT provides a new idea and novel method for the treatment of mid-ureteral stricture. This study confirmed the feasibility of this technique in treating severe single mid-ureteral stricture in a rabbit model. The operation is relatively simple and has potential for clinical application.
5.A prospective cohort study on the associations between dietary patterns in early childhood and myopia 5 years later among children
Chinese Journal of School Health 2026;47(8):1080-1085
Objective:
To investigate the longitudinal associations between dietary patterns in early childhood and myopia among children, so as to provide evidence for improving early childhood dietary patterns and promoting healthy ocular development among children.
Methods:
Participants were derived from the Ma-anshan Birth Cohort (MABC). A total of 1 432 children were included. Dietary patterns at 2.5 years of age were collected in 2017 using a food frequency questionnaire completed by parents. In 2022, cycloplegic refraction and ocular biometric parameters were measured in children aged 7-8 years. Food components were grouped into tertiles ( T1-T 3), and latent class analysis (LCA) was used to identify dietary pattern at the age of 2.5. Log-binomial regression and multiple linear regression model were applied to examine the associations of dietary patterns and their latent classes with myopia, spherical equivalent (SE), and axial length (AL).
Results:
The prevalence of myopia among children was 23.9%. After adjusting for covariates, the T 2 group of cereals and tubers was negatively associated with myopia rate ( RR=0.72, 95%CI =0.57-0.90) and AL ( β=-0.15, 95%CI =-0.24 to -0.05), and positively associated with SE ( β=0.21, 95%CI =0.06-0.35)(all P <0.05). Linear regression models showed that the T 2 group of fruits and vegetables was positively associated with AL ( β=0.09, 95%CI =0.00- 0.19 ); the T 3 group of high sugar foods ( β=0.11, 95%CI =0.00-0.21) and the T 3 group of processed foods ( β= 0.10 , 95%CI =0.00-0.19) were positively associated with AL; total scores for high sugar foods ( β=0.07, 95%CI =0.00-0.14) and processed foods ( β=0.09, 95%CI =0.01-0.17) were positively associated with AL (all P <0.05). After adjusting for sex, age, and parental myopia, the comprehensive high intake pattern was positively associated with AL ( β=0.12, 95%CI =0.00-0.23, P <0.05). After further adjusting for daily screen time and daily outdoor activity time, the association was no longer statistically significant ( β= 0.11 , 95%CI =-0.00-0.23, P >0.05).
Conclusions
Moderate consumption of cereals and tubers in early childhood may reduce the risk of myopia and delay AL growth. In contrast, high sugar and highly processed diets may promote AL and increase myopia risk. Establishing healthy dietary habits in early childhood and limiting intake of high sugar and processed foods is crucial for promoting ocular development in children.

Objective To investigate the influencing factors of advanced bone age in early adolescence, and to provide a scientific basis for the early identification of children and adolescents with abnormal bone age development. Methods A prospective cohort study design was adopted. From July 2022 to September 2023, height, weight, and body composition data of children were collected, with the baseline age of the study participants being 8.42±0.50 years. Subsequently, from March 2024 to November 2025, these children in the cohort were followed up and their bone age development was monitored. In the end, a total of 1142 participants with complete data were included in the study. Results In early adolescence, there were 239 individuals (20.93%) with early bone age development and 103 (9.02%) with delayed development. The proportion of early bone age development was higher among individuals whose mothers had gestational hypertension during pregnancy, and the difference was statistically significant (χ2=8.90, P<0.05). The proportion of early bone age development was higher among boys, and the difference was statistically significant (χ2=41.69, P<0.001). Disordered multiclass logistic regression analysis showed that after adjusting for demographic factors, overweight (OR=2.65, 95%CI:1.81-3.88), obesity (OR=6.51, 95%CI: 4.45-9.53), and excessive body fat percentage (OR=4.60, 95% CI: 3.01-7.03) were associated with an increased risk of early bone age development in children and adolescents. Conclusion Being overweight/obese and having an excessive body fat percentage can increase the risk of early bone age development in adolescents.

Objective:To explore the relationship between parenting styles of toddlers aged 30 months and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) symptom trajectories in preschool children.Methods:The subjects were 2 111 children and their parents in Ma'anshan Birth Cohort. Parenting styles were assessed at 30 months of age using the Brief Toddler Parenting Style Questionnaire, which defines parenting styles on four dimensions: warmth and interaction, attention and acceptance, outdoor and social activities, and neglect and restrictions. The Chinese version of the Conners Abbreviated Symptom Questionnaire was used to examine preschooler's ADHD symptoms aged 3, 5, and 6 years. ADHD symptom trajectories were fitted using group-based trajectory modeling. The multinomial logistic regression model was used to evaluate the relationship between parenting styles at 30 months of age and ADHD symptom trajectories in children. The additive and multiplicative models were applied to analyze the interaction effect of negative parenting styles in children's ADHD symptom trajectories.Results:ADHD symptom trajectories in children included the low-score (48.3%), moderate-score (47.7%), and high-score groups (4.0%). After adjusting for the confounding factors, the results of the multinomial logistic regression analysis showed that negative parenting styles of the father/mother were associated with ADHD symptom trajectories in children ( P<0.05). The father/mother's low warmth and interaction (father: OR=2.07,95% CI:1.68-2.54; mother: OR=2.02,95% CI:1.64-2.48), low attention and acceptance (father: OR=1.94,95% CI:1.57-2.39; mother: OR=1.47,95% CI:1.20-1.81), low outdoor and social (father: OR=1.74,95% CI:1.43-2.13; mother: OR=1.60,95% CI:1.32-1.94), and high neglect and restriction (father: OR=2.09,95% CI:1.67-2.62; mother: OR=2.06,95% CI:1.65-2.56) were associated with ADHD symptom moderate-score trajectories compared to the low-score trajectory group, mother's low warmth and interaction, low outdoor and social, and high neglect and restrictions. Statistically significant association was seen in negative parenting styles of fathers with the high-score group. There was a multiplicative interaction for hostile parenting ( P<0.05). The additive interaction results showed that there was a synergistic effect of hostile parenting, which increased the risk of the high-score trajectories of ADHD symptoms in children. Conclusions:Both parents' parenting styles influenced ADHD symptom change the trajectories in preschoolers. Negative parenting styles of the father/mother increase the risk of the moderate-score and high-score trajectories of ADHD symptoms in children. Hostile parenting by both parents has a synergistic impact on the risk of ADHD symptom trajectories in children, and the simultaneous presence of both increases the risk of the high-score trajectory of ADHD symptoms.

Objective:To explore the hemodynamic characteristics of the middle cerebral artery (MCA) in atherosclerotic stenosis using four-dimensional flow (4D Flow) MRI, and combining high-resolution magnetic resonance vessel wall imaging (HR VW-MRI) to analyze the relationship between hemodynamics and the degree of stenosis, as well as the morphological characteristics of plaques.Methods:The study was a cross-sectional study. A total of 24 patients with middle cerebral artery(MCA) M1 atherosclerotic stenosis and 10 age and sex matched healthy controls (HC group) were prospectively recruited from September 2018 to March 2021 at Beijing Tiantan Hospital, Capital Medical University. All subjects underwent MRI examination. The hemodynamic of MCA were collected by 4D Flow MRI, and the hemodynamic parameters of proximal and distal MCA stenosis were calculated by blood flow post-processing software, including average blood flow rate (FR avg), average blood flow velocity (V avg), peak blood flow velocity (V pk), time average wall shear stress (TAWSS), minimum wall shear stress (WSS min) and oscillatory shear index (OSI). The differences in hemodynamic parameters among the proximal and distal ends of MCA stenosis and the HC group were compared using one-way ANOVA or Kruskal-Wallis H test. The stenosis rate and characteristics of MCA plaque were analyzed by HR VW-MRI, including remodeling index (RI), normalized wall index (NWI) and plaque length. Pearson or Spearman correlation analysis was used to explore the correlation between stenosis rate and hemodynamic parameters. Taking the stenosis rate as the control variable, partial correlation analysis was used to explore the correlation between plaque morphological characteristics and hemodynamic parameters. Results:There were statistically significant differences in FR avg, V avg, V pk, TAWSS, OSI, WSS min among the proximal and distal stenosis of MCA and HC groups ( P<0.05). The proximal end of the MCA stenosis had significantly higher FR avg, V avg, TAWSS and WSS min than those of the distal end of the stenosis ( P<0.01). The FR avg, V avg, V pk, TAWSS, and WSS min in the distal end of MCA stenosis were lower than those in the HC group, while the OSI was higher than that in the HC group ( P<0.01). The correlation analysis results showed that the MCA proximal V pk ( r=-0.425, P=0.027) and distal V pk ( r=-0.538, P=0.004) were negatively correlated with the diameter stenosis rate. When the stenosis rate was taken as the control factor, in the MCA proximal stenosis, V avg ( r=0.553, P=0.003), TAWSS ( r=0.543, P=0.004) and WSS min ( r=0.547, P=0.004) were positively correlated with RI, proximal OSI was negatively correlated with RI ( r=-0.492, P=0.011), and was positively correlated with the plaque length ( r=0.437, P=0.026). At the distal end of the stenosis, V pk was negatively correlated with NWI ( r=-0.556, P=0.003), OSI was negatively correlated with RI ( r=-0.511, P=0.008), NWI ( r=-0.390, P=0.049). TAWSS was positively correlated with RI ( r=0.393, P=0.047). Conclusions:The 4D Flow MRI demonstrates characteristic hemodynamic changes in the proximal and distal ends of the stenotic MCA. The local hemodynamic characteristics of the stenotic MCA are correlated with plaque morphological parameters, including lumen stenosis, plaque load, and RI. It suggests an interaction between the occurrence and development of MCA plaque and local hemodynamic changes.
