This paper summarized Professor BU He's clinical experience in the integrative internal and external treatment of pediatric functional constipation. He believes that dysfunction of the spleen in transportation leads to impaired function of the sanjiao (三焦) and intestinal obstruction, which constitutes the core pathogenesis of pediatric functional constipation. The treatment emphasizes regulating the spleen and harmonizing the pivot, as well as unblocking the bowel and eliminating stagnation. An integrated approach combining internal and external therapies is advocated. Internally, Chinese herbal medicine, primarily Modified Sijunzi Decoction and Shaoyao Gancao Decoction (四君子汤合芍药甘草汤加减) is used to regulate the internal organs. Externally, pediatric tuina and moxibustion on qi interlocking are employed. Together, these methods fortify the spleen and facilitate transportation, restoring the smooth function of the sanjiao pivot, and ensuring intestinal patency, thereby relieving constipation.

OBJECTIVE To systematically evaluate the methodological quality of the postoperative chemotherapy guidelines/ consensuses for ovarian epithelial tumor. METHODS A search was conducted across databases including PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, CBM, VIP, Chinese Medical Journal Data, Wanfang Data, and CNKI, as well as the official websites of GIN, NICE, Medlive, AHRQ, CSCO, ASCO, and NCCN. The search period was from the establishment of the databases/websites to March 10, 2025. The quality of the included guidelines/consensus was evaluated by using the AGREE-Ⅱ tool. RESULTS A total of 16 guidelines/consensuses were included. The domain scores of AGREE-Ⅱ evaluation were as follows: scope and purpose of 85.07%, participants of 47.92%, rigor of development of 57.49%, clarity of presentation of 88.02%, applicability of 8.20%, and independence of 53.39%. Among them, 14 were recommended at grade B and 2 were recommended at grade C. The subgroup analysis by different countries/regions and different types of studies showed that the scores for participants, rigor of development, and independence of the guidelines/consensuses in China were significantly lower than foreign countries (P<0.05); the scores for participants and rigor of development of the guidelines were significantly higher than consensuses (P<0.05). The guideline/ consensus recommendation results indicated that grade B guidelines/consensus recommend platinum-based combination chemotherapy as the preferred adjuvant chemotherapy regimen for stage Ⅰ high-grade serous carcinoma patients;platinum-based combination chemotherapy±bevacizumab was recommended as the preferred adjuvant chemotherapy regimen for stage Ⅱ-Ⅳ high- grade serous carcinoma patients and for platinum-sensitive recurrent high-grade serous carcinoma patients; non-platinum single- agent chemotherapy±bevacizumab was recommended as the preferred chemotherapy regimen for platinum-resistant recurrent high- grade serous carcinoma patients. CONCLUSIONS The overall quality of postoperative chemotherapy guidelines/consensuses for ovarian epithelial tumor is not high. The methodological quality of guidelines/consensuses in China is still lagging behind that of foreign countries. The recommendations differ from those in foreign countries. It is recommended to improve the aspects of participants, rigor of development, and independence, to recommend treatment plans based on the different stages of ovarian cancer, and develop guidelines/consensuses that align with China’s national conditions.

The pharmaceutical industry faces challenges in quality digitization for complex multi-stage processes, especially in small-sample systems. Here, an intelligent quality prediction and diagnostic (IQPD) framework was developed and applied to Tong Ren Tang's Niuhuang Qingxin Pills, utilizing four years of data collected from four production units, covering the entire process from raw materials to finished products. In this framework, a novel path-enhanced double ensemble quality prediction model (PeDGAT) is proposed, which combines a graph attention network and path information to encode inter-unit long-range and sequential dependencies. Additionally, the double ensemble strategy enhances model stability in small samples. Compared to global traditional models, PeDGAT achieves state-of-the-art results, with an average improvement of 13.18% and 87.67% in prediction accuracy and stability on three indicators. Additionally, a more in-depth diagnostic model leveraging grey correlation analysis and expert knowledge reduces reliance on large samples, offering a panoramic view of attribute relationships across units and improving process transparency. Finally, the IQPD framework integrates into a Human-Cyber-Physical system, enabling faster decision-making and real-time quality adjustments for Tong Ren Tang's Niuhuang Qingxin Pills, a product with annual sales exceeding 100 million CNY. This facilitates the transition from experience-driven to data-driven manufacturing.

OBJECTIVE:
To observe the characteristics of changes in non-invasive hemodynamic parameters in neonates with septic shock so as to provide clinical reference for diagnosis and treatment.
METHODS:
A observational study was conducted. The neonates with sepsis complicated with septic shock or not admitted to neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) of the First Affiliated Hospital of Shantou University Medical College were enrolled as the study subjects, who were divided into preterm infant (< 37 weeks) and full-term infant (≥ 37 weeks) according to the gestational age. Healthy full-term infants and hemodynamically stable preterm infants transferring to NICU after birth were enrolled as controls. Electronic cardiometry (EC) was used to measure hemodynamic parameters, including heart rate (HR), mean arterial pressure (MAP), stroke volume (SV), stroke volume index (SVI), cardiac output (CO), cardiac index (CI), systemic vascular resistance (SVR) and systemic vascular resistance index (SVRI), before treatment in the septic shock group, at the time of diagnosis of sepsis in the sepsis without shock group, and before the discharge from the obstetric department or on the day of transferring to NICU in the control group.
RESULTS:
Finally, 113 neonates with complete data and parental consent for non-invasive hemodynamic monitoring were enrolled, including 32 cases in the septic shock group, 25 cases in the sepsis without shock group and 56 cases in the control group. In the septic shock group, there were 17 cases at the compensated stage and 15 cases at the decompensated stage. There were 21 full-term infants (20 cured or improved and 1 died) and 11 premature infants (7 cured or improved and 4 died), with the mortality of 15.62% (5/32). There were 18 full-term infants and 7 premature infants in the sepsis without shock group and all cured or improved without death. The control group included 28 full-term infants and 28 premature infants transferring to NICU after birth. Non-invasive hemodynamic parameter analysis showed that SV, SVI, CO and CI of full-term infants in the septic shock group were significantly lower than those in the sepsis without shock group and control group [SV (mL): 3.52±0.99 vs. 5.79±1.32, 5.22±1.02, SVI (mL/m2): 16.80 (15.05, 19.65) vs. 27.00 (22.00, 32.00), 27.00 (23.00, 29.75), CO (L/min): 0.52±0.17 vs. 0.80±0.14, 0.72±0.12, CI (mL×s-1×m-2): 40.00 (36.67, 49.18) vs. 62.51 (56.34, 70.85), 60.01 (53.34, 69.68), all P < 0.05], while SVR and SVRI were significantly higher than those in the sepsis without shock group and control group [SVR (kPa×s×L-1): 773.46±291.96 vs. 524.17±84.76, 549.38±72.36, SVRI (kPa×s×L-1×m-2): 149.27±51.76 vs. 108.12±12.66, 107.81±11.87, all P < 0.05]. MAP, SV, SVI, CO and CI of preterm infants in the septic shock group were significantly lower than those in the control group [MAP (mmHg, 1 mmHg ≈ 0.133 kPa): 38.55±10.48 vs. 47.46±2.85, SV (mL): 2.45 (1.36, 3.58) vs. 3.96 (3.56, 4.49), SVI (mL/m2): 17.60 (14.20, 25.00) vs. 25.50 (24.00, 29.00), CO (L/min): 0.32 (0.24, 0.63) vs. 0.56 (0.49, 0.63), CI (mL×s-1×m-2): 40.01 (33.34, 53.34) vs. 61.68 (56.68, 63.35), all P < 0.05], while SVR and SVRI were similar to the control group [SVR (kPa×s×L-1): 1 082.88±689.39 vs. 656.63±118.83, SVRI (kPa×s×L-1×m-2): 126.00±61.50 vs. 102.37±11.68, both P > 0.05]. Further analysis showed that SV, SVI and CI of neonates at the compensation stage in the septic shock group were significantly lower than those in the control group [SV (mL): 3.60±1.29 vs. 4.73±1.15, SVI (mL/m2): 19.20±8.33 vs. 26.34±3.91, CI (mL×s-1×m-2): 46.51±20.34 vs. 61.01±7.67, all P < 0.05], while MAP, SVR and SVRI were significantly higher than those in the control group [MAP (mmHg): 52.06±8.61 vs. 48.54±3.21, SVR (kPa×s×L-1): 874.95±318.70 vs. 603.01±111.49, SVRI (kPa×s×L-1×m-2): 165.07±54.90 vs. 105.09±11.99, all P < 0.05]; MAP, SV, SVI, CO and CI of neonates at the decompensated stage in the septic shock group were significantly lower than those in the control group [MAP (mmHg): 35.13±6.08 vs. 48.54±3.21, SV (mL): 2.89±1.17 vs. 4.73±1.15, SVI (mL/m2): 18.50±4.99 vs. 26.34±3.91, CO (L/min): 0.41±0.19 vs. 0.65±0.15, CI (mL×s-1×m-2): 43.34±14.17 vs. 61.01±7.67, all P < 0.05], while SVR and SVRI were similar to the control group [SVR (kPa×s×L-1): 885.49±628.04 vs. 603.01±111.49, SVRI (kPa×s×L-1×m-2): 114.29±43.54 vs. 105.09±11.99, both P > 0.05].
CONCLUSIONS
Full-term infant with septic shock exhibit a low cardiac output, high vascular resistance hemodynamic pattern, while preterm infant with septic shock show low cardiac output and normal vascular resistance. At the compensated stage the hemodynamic change is low output and high resistance type, while at the decompensated stage it is low output and normal resistance type. Non-invasive hemodynamic monitoring can assist in the identification of neonatal septic shock and provide basis for clinical diagnosis and treatment.

Objective :
To investigate the role of enhancer of zeste homolog 2(EZH2)-trimethylated lysine 27 of histone H3(H3K27me3) axis in the dedifferentiation of thyroid cancer and its clinical value as a potential target for the treatment of anaplastic thyroid cancer(ATC).
Methods :
Immunohistochemical SP method was used to detect the expression of EZH2, H3K27me3, paired box gene 8(PAX8), thyroglobulin(TG) and thyroid transcription factor 1(TTF1) in ATC and papillary thyroid carcinoma(PTC) and their adjacent tissues. The relationship between EZH2 and thyroid differentiation markers(PAX8, TTF1, TG) was further analyzed by gene expression omnibus(GEO) database. ATC cell lines 8305C and BHT-101 were culturedin vitro. Real-time reverse transcription PCR(RT-qPCR) was used to detect the expression of thyroid differentiation markers(TTF1, PAX8) mRNA in ATC cell lines treated with EZH2 inhibitor(GSK126), and evaluate the potential therapeutic effect of GSK126in vitro. The effects of GSK126 and BRAF inhibitor vemurafenib on the proliferation of ATC cell lines were observed by cell proliferation assay.
Results :
The expression of EZH2 in ATC tissues was significantly higher than that in papillary thyroid carcinoma and adjacent tissues(P<0.05). The expression of H3K37me3 in ATC tissues was significantly lower than that in PTC tissues(P<0.05). EZH2 was negatively correlated with PAX8 and TG expression levels, but not with TTF1 expression level.In vitroexperiments, GSK126 could reverse the expression of thyroid differentiation markers PAX8 and TTF1 in ATC cell lines. GSK126 combined with BRAF inhibitor vemurafenib could significantly inhibit the growth of ATC cell lines.
Conclusion
The EZH2-H3K27me3 axis plays an important role in regulating thyroid specific markers, and the inhibition of EZH2 by small molecular compounds is a promising target for ATC treatment in the future.

Objective To analyze the long-term outcome of modified Morrow surgery (interventricular septal cardiomyectomy) in the treatment of hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy (HOCM) in children. Methods The clinical data of the children with HOCM (aged≤14 years) who underwent modified Morrow surgery from January 2010 to August 2022 in Guangdong Provincial People's Hospital were retrospectively analyzed, including changes in hospitalization status, perioperative period, and long-term 15-lead electrocardiogram and echocardiography. Results A total of 29 patients were collected, including 22 males and 7 females, aged 10.00 (5.00, 12.00) years. Five (17.9%) patients had New York Heart Association (NYHA) heart function grade Ⅲ or Ⅳ. Ventricular septal cardiomyectomy was performed in all patients. All 29 patients survived and their cardiac function recovered after operation. Before discharge, right bundle branch block was observed in 2 patients and left bundle branch block in 6 patients. After surgery, in the left ventricular septal cardiomyectomy, the left atrial diameter decreased (P<0.001), left ventricular end-systolic diameter increased (P=0.009), the peak pressure gradient of left ventricular outflow tract decreased (P<0.001), and the thickness of ventricular septum decreased (P<0.001). The systolic anterior motion of mitral valve disappeared and mitral regurgitent jet area decreased (P<0.001). The flow velocity and peak pressure gradient of right ventricular outflow tract also decreased in the patients who underwent right ventricular septal cardiomyectomy. The average follow-up of the patients was 69.03±10.60 months. All the patients survived with their NYHA cardiac function grading Ⅰ or Ⅱ. No new-onset arrythmia event was found. Echocardiography indicated that the peak pressure gradient of the left ventricular outflow tract remained low (P<0.001). Moderate mitral regurgitation occurred in 2 patients, and left ventricular outflow tract obstruction with moderate mitral regurgitation occurred in 1 patient after simple right ventricular septal cardiomyectomy. Conclusion Right ventricular or biventricular obstruction is frequent in the children with HOCM and they usually have more symptoms before surgery. Modified Morrow surgery can effectively relieve outflow tract obstruction and improve their cardiac function. The long-term outcome is satisfactory. However, the posterior wall of the left ventricle remains hypertrophic. Also, there is an increased risk of a conduction block.

ObjectiveTo explore the effect of occupational stress on work-related musculoskeletal disorders (WMSDs) in electronics manufacturing workers. Methods A total of 392 front-line workers in two electronic manufacturing enterprises in Guangdong Province were selected as the research subjects using the judgment sampling method. The prevalence of WMSDs and the level of occupational stress of the research subjects were investigated using the Musculoskeletal Disorders Questionnaire and the Core Occupational Stress Scale. Results The total WMSDs detection rate was 39.5%, and the multi-site WMSDs detection rate was 30.6%. The detection rate of occupational stress was 14.8%. The total WMSDs detection rate and multi-site WMSDs detection rate in the occupational stress group were higher than those in the non-occupational stress group (65.5% vs 35.0%, 56.9% vs 26.0%, both P<0.01). Binary logistic regression analysis result showed that the risk of WMSDs in the occupational stress group was higher than that in the non-occupational stress group after adjusting the effect of confounding factors such as age, gender, job type and work days per week (P<0.01). Conclusion The occupational stress may increase the risk of WMSDs in electronics manufacturing workers. Reducing the level of occupational stress among workers in electronic manufacturing enterprises is beneficial for reducing the risk of WMSDs.

Objective:To evaluate the effect of novel erythrocyte preservation solution on the quality of erythrocytes in stored blood of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) rats.Methods:Forty SPF male Sprague-Dawley rats, aged 8 weeks, weighing 180-220 g, were used in this study. Ten rats randomly selected served as conventional erythrocyte preservation solution group (group A). T2DM model was prepared in the remaining 30 rats. Twenty T2DM rats were divided into 2 groups ( n=10 each) using a random number table method: T2DM conventional erythrocyte preservation solution control group (group C) and T2DM novel erythrocyte preservation solution observation group (group Y). Erythrocyte preservation solution was prepared to simulate the preoperative autologous blood donation process, and blood was collected from the tail vein to isolate the red blood cells, and then the corresponding preservation solution was added. Immediately after blood collection (T 0) and at 7, 14 and 21 days of preservation (T 1-3), the morphological structure of erythrocytes was observed with a light microscope, and the concentrations of 2, 3-diphosphoglycerate (2, 3-DPG) and reactive oxygen species (ROS) were also determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay at T 0-T 3 and 28 days of preservation (T 4). PKH26 was used to label the erythrocytes stored in vitro for 28 days, and then the erythrocytes were transfused back into rats. The survival rate of erythrocytes was detected by flow cytometry at 1, 7, 13 and 18 h after retransfusion. Results:The erythrocyte damage was aggravated at different time points of preservation in group C when compared with group A. Compared with group C, the damage to erythrocytes was significantly alleviated at different time points of preservation in group Y. Compared with group A, the concentration of 2, 3-DPG in erythrocytes was significantly decreased at T 0 and T 2-T 4, the concentration of ROS was increased at T 0-T 4, and the survival rate of erythrocytes was decreased at 1, 7 and 18 h after retransfusion in group C ( P<0.05). Compared with group C, the concentration of 2, 3-DPG in erythrocytes was significantly increased at T 0-T 4, the content of ROS was decreased at T 1, T 3 and T 4, and the survival rate of erythrocytes was increased at 1, 7 and 18 h after retransfusion in group Y ( P<0.05). Conclusions:The novel erythrocyte preservation solution can improve the quality of stored erythrocytes and increase the survival rate of erythrocytes in vivo after retransfusion in T2DM rats.
