Objective: To analyze the characteristics of pediatric pesticide poisoning cases admitted to a children s hospital in Jiangxi Province, so as to provide references for the prevention and treatment of pediatric pesticide poisoning. Methods: Medical records of 349 pesticide poisoning hospitalized cases from 2009 to 2023 in a children s hospital in Jiangxi Province were retrospectively reviewed to summarized clinical features, categories of pesticides involved, therapeutic interventions, and prognostic outcomes. Results: Among the cases of pesticide poisoning in children, there were 217 boys and 132 girls with an average age of 4 years and 8 months; 35.82% of cases occurred during April-June, followed by 27.22% during July-September, during October-December accounting for 22.35%, with 14.61% during January-March. There were 75 (21.49%), 148 (42.41%), 126 cases ( 36.10% ) during 2009-2013, 2014-2018, 2019-2023. In terms of pesticide type, insecticides ranked first (166 cases, 47.56% ), followed by herbicides (116 cases, 33.24%) and rodenticides (58 cases, 16.62%). The average hospitalization time was 4 days, and a total of 73 cases (20.92%) required admission to the intensive care unit among pesticide poisoning cases. There were 11 deaths, including 6 cases who were associated with paraguat esposure of paraquat. Self poisoning accounted for 34 cases, with an average age of 12 years and 2 months; 50.00% (17 cases) were concentrated in 2022-2023, accounting for 64.71% (22 cases) in girls; 8 cases of self poisoning resulted in death, accounting for 72.73% of the total number of deaths. Conclusions The period of April to June repesents the peak time for pediatric pesticide poisoning cases, and the proportion of accidental ingestion is relatively high. It is necessary to strictly prevent child poisoning.

The importance of consensus research in medical decision-making has become increasinglyprominent. However, this field has long lacked unified terminology definitions and reporting standards, leading to significant heterogeneity in study design, implementation, and result presentation that affects the credibility and reproducibility of outcomes. The ACCurate COnsensus Reporting Document (ACCORD) in the field of biomedical research provides a structured writing framework for various consensus methods such as the Delphi method and nominal group technique, aiming to enhance the completeness and transparency of study reports. Combined with specific cases, this article interprets the core items of ACCORD, offering references for the design, implementation, and reporting of high-quality consensus research in China.

ObjectiveTo investigate the effects of three traditional Chinese medicine formulas for nourishing kidney Yin on the occurrence of breast cancer， including Zuoguiwan（ZGW）， Liuwei Dihuangwan（LWDHW） and Erzhiwan（EZW）， and to explore their preventive mechanisms from the phagocytic function of macrophages. MethodsTen-month-old post-breeding female mice were randomly divided into the blank group， soy isoflavone group（0.13 g·kg^-1·d^-1， mixed with feed）， ZGW group（2.34 g·kg^-1·d^-1）， LWDHW group（0.56 g·kg^-1·d^-1）， and EZW group（4.68 g·kg^-1·d^-1）. The mice were palpated every 3 d until the age of 18 months， and those with detected lumps were confirmed for tumor development through hematoxylin-eosin（HE） staining， and the incidence of breast cancer in mice was calculated. A total of 40 SPF-grade female SD rats were randomly divided into the blank serum group（physiological saline）， ZGW drug-containing serum group（16.20 g·kg^-1·d^-1of ZGW）， LWDHW drug-containing serum group（3.89 g·kg^-1·d^-1 of LWDHW） and EZW drug-containing serum group（32.40 g·kg^-1·d^-1 of EZW）， each group was orally administered 3 times a day for 5 consecutive days. On the 5^th day， blood was collected from the abdominal aorta 1 h after the last gavage to prepare drug-containing serum. The effect of drug-containing serum with different concentrations on the viability of RAW264.7 cells was assessed by cell counting kit-8（CCK-8）. Taking 20% of drug-containing serum concentration as the research object， its effect on the expression levels of major histocompatibility complex-Ⅱ（MHC-Ⅱ）， CD80 and CD86 on the surface of RAW264.7 cells was detected by immunofluorescence（IF）， the phagocytic function of RAW264.7 cells was examined by flow cytometry， and the levels of interleukin-6（IL-6） and nitric oxide（NO） in RAW264.7 cells in the conditioned medium（CM） co culture system of 4T1 cells were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay（ELISA） and Griess assay. ResultsAfter prophylactic administration， the tumor incidence rates in the soy isoflavone group（4%）， ZGW group（4%）， LWDHW group（4%）， and EZW group（6%） were lower than that in the blank group（8%）. Compared with the blank serum group， the drug-containing serum of the three nourishing kidney Yin formulas could enhance the expression levels of MHC-Ⅱ， CD80 and CD86 on the surface of RAW264.7 cells， enhance phagocytic ability towards tumor cells， and reduce the content of IL-6 and increase the level of NO（P<0.05， P<0.01）. ConclusionThe three nourishing kidney Yin formulas can reduce the incidence of tumor in mice， the mechanism may be related to activating RAW264.7 cells， increasing their phagocytosis to breast cancer cells， and regulating the secretion of IL-6 and NO.

Background Indoor air quality directly affects people's health, especially the impact of chemical pollutants in residential indoor air on children and the elderly is more significant. Objective To understand the pollution status of common chemical pollutants in residential indoor air in Shijiazhuang, evaluate the health risks of chemical pollutants to school-age children and the elderly, and provide reference for controlling indoor pollution in residential environment. Methods Using stratified random sampling, a total of 60 households were selected from 2 urban areas and 1 surrounding rural area in Shijiazhuang City, specifically in July 2023 (non-heating season) and December 2023 (heating season), respectively. Relevant data was collected through on-site sampling [including CO, CO₂, PM₁₀, PM_2.5, NO₂, SO₂, O₃, ammonia, formaldehyde, benzene, toluene, xylene, total volatile organic compounds (TVOC), trichloroethylene, and tetrachloroethylene] and survey questionnaires. The pollutant concentrations were evaluated following the Standards for indoor air quality of GB/T 18883-2022, and the inhalation exposure risks of the target population were assessed based on the health risk assessment method. Results In the indoor air of the urban and rural residence in Shijiazhuang City, except for CO, NO₂, SO₂, toluene, and xylene, which did not exceed the standard limits, other pollutants showed varying degrees of exceedance. The non-qualified rates of PM₁₀, PM_2.5, and CO₂ in the urban areas were higher than those in the rural areas (P < 0.05). The seasonal difference analysis showed that the non-qualified rates of PM_2.5, PM₁₀, CO₂, trichloroethylene, and tetrachloroethylene in the urban areas were higher in the heating season than in the non-heating season (P<0.05); the non-qualified rates of ammonia and formaldehyde in the rural areas increased significantly in the non-heating season(P<0.05). The health risk assessment indicated that the maximum hazard quotient (HQ) of tetrachloroethylene for the elderly exceeded 1, while the HQ values for ammonia, formaldehyde, benzene, toluene, xylene, and trichloroethylene remained below 1 for either children or the elderly. For carcinogenic risks, the median carcinogenic risk (CR) of formaldehyde for school-aged children or the elderly fell within the range of 10⁻⁶-10⁻⁴, whereas the median CR values for benzene, trichloroethylene, and tetrachloroethylene were all below 10⁻⁶. Conclusion The primary indoor air pollutants exceeding the national standard limits in residential areas of Shijiazhuang City include CO₂, PM₁₀, TVOC, PM_2.5, formaldehyde, ammonia, trichloroethylene, and tetrachloroethylene. The levels of these pollutants exhibit significant urban-rural and seasonal variations. Special attention should be paid to the non-carcinogenic risk of tetrachloroethylene to the elderly and the carcinogenic risks of formaldehyde to school-age children and the elderly.

BACKGROUND: The STAR (Scientific, Transparent, and Applicable Rankings) working group conducts regular evaluations of Chinese guidelines and consensus statements. This study gathered insights from STAR working group members using qualitative interviews. METHODS: From March to August 2023, members of the STAR specialist committees were interviewed using semi-structured interview outline. The interviewees were selected through purpose-based sampling. Subject analysis was employed to summarize the findings. RESULTS: We conducted interviews with 37 members from 36 committees and summarized the contents into four main themes and 16 specific topics. The value of STAR in enhancing the development and selection of high-quality guidelines in China was commonly mentioned. Challenges identified included the lack of resources and suboptimal organizational structures, collaboration, and evaluation efficiency. Suggestions for the STAR tool included developing extensions for different guideline types, adjusting certain items, and better covering guideline applicability. The promotion of STAR and the consideration of an international committee for global outreach were also highlighted. CONCLUSION STAR has exerted a substantial influence on the evaluation of Chinese guidelines, and the insights gained from interviews offer valuable directions for its further enhancement.

Objective:To explore the dosimetric characteristics of proton and photon radiotherapy in the treatment of breast cancer.Methods:Four female breast cancer patients who needed radiotherapy at Shandong Cancer Hospital and Institute from January 2024 to May 2024 were selected as the research subjects. The target area ranges of 4 patients were left-sided breast cancer with lymph node involvement, left-sided breast cancer with lymph node involvement and internal mammary node, right-sided breast cancer with lymph node involvement and internal mammary node and synchronous bilateral breast cancer. Intensity modulated proton therapy (IMPT) and intensity modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) plans were designed respectively based on the prescribed dose in the target area and the limits of organs at risk (tomotherapy plan for bilateral breasts). The conformity index (CI), homogeneity index (HI), gradient index (GI) and organs at risk doses were evaluated. The dosimetric characteristics of IMPT and photon radiotherapy were compared.Results:Both IMPT and photon radiotherapy plans of the 4 breast cancer cases met the clinical dose requirements. The HI value of IMPT plans (0.10-0.14) was comparable to that of photon radiotherapy plans (0.10-0.12), and the average CI of the photon radiotherapy plans was 0.10 higher than that of the IMPT plans, and the average GI was 0.55 lower than that of the IMPT plans. The D mean of ipsilateral lung and heart of IMPT was lower, especially in the low-dose area (V 0-3), which was significantly lower than the photon radiotherapy plans, D mean of ipsilateral lung was reduced by 12.2%, 6.1%, 16.1% and 34.8%, respectively, D mean of heart was reduced by 47.2%, 57.0%, 72.4% and 83.0%, respectively. The ipsilateral lung V 20 of IMPT was not lower than photon radiotherapy plans (unilateral breast: IMPT was 30.0%-34.0%, IMRT was 29.0%-35.9%) . Conclusions:IMPT significantly reduces the D mean to the ipsilateral lung and heart while ensuring dose coverage of the target in breast cancer, preventing more volume of surrounding normal tissues from being irradiated. However, IMPT does not show much more advantage than photon radiotherapy plans in the ipsilateral lung V 20.
