Digital and intelligent technologies serve as the core engine driving the inheritance of the essence and the innovation while upholding the fundamentals of traditional Chinese medicine（TCM）. Currently， the digital and intelligent transformation of TCM has undergone four developmental stages， exhibiting inherent characteristics such as long-term inevitability， objective standardization， and ecological evolution. By introducing quantitative metrics， digital and intelligent technologies have achieved breakthroughs in TCM knowledge inheritance and innovation， clinical diagnosis and treatment， and herbal medicine supply. The practical applicability of methodological innovations has been empirically validated， though significant disparities exist in technological adaptability and application depth across different fields. Overall， the digital and intelligent transformation of TCM remains in its nascent stage， grappling with multiple structural challenges：weak data foundations， inadequate technological adaptability， incomplete institutional frameworks， shortages of multidisciplinary talent， lagging policies and regulations， and urban-rural digital divide. In order to foster sustainable development and modernization of TCM， this paper establishes a six-dimensional collaborative governance framework of encompassing data， technology， organization， institutions， environment and ethics， which is rooted in data governance and digital governance theories. Future efforts should center on standardization， integration， and ecosystem development to build a data and technology foundation. Focus should be placed on deepening innovation and application of key TCM-specific technologies， while simultaneously strengthening interdisciplinary talent cultivation， improving institutional mechanisms and policy frameworks， and increasing support for rural areas. By adopting a people-centered and technology-empowered approach， we can overcome developmental constraints and unleash the powerful driving force of digital and intelligent technologies for the inheritance of TCM.

Hepatic fibrosis refers to excessive accumulation and abnormal proliferation of fibrous connective tissue in the liver triggered by multiple pathogenic factors， and it may progress to liver cirrhosis， portal hypertension， and liver cancer. The pathological mechanisms of hepatic fibrosis involve hepatocyte injury， inflammatory cell infiltration with the release of inflammatory mediators， hepatic stellate cell activation， and extracellular matrix deposition. Recent studies have focused on mitochondrial dysfunction in disease progression， including the molecular pathways for hepatic fibrosis driven by metabolic disorders， energy deficiency， oxidative stress， mitochondrial dynamic imbalance， and autophagic dysfunction， all of which can induce liver injury. This article reviews the latest advances in hepatic fibrosis， in order to provide new therapeutic strategies for clinical management.

Sangjuyin， as a pungent and cooling agent with precise therapeutic effect， is a classic pungent formula for cooling relief of the epidermis， which is highly respected by medical practitioners. This formula is from the Wenbing Tiaobian written by WU Jutong in the Qing dynasty， on the basis of which subsequent medical practitioners have made additions and subtractions to apply it. The authors used the bibliometric method to systematically organize the medical books from the Qing dynasty and the Republic of China and modern literature to analyze the composition， concoction， decoction， efficacy， and previous and modern application of Sangjuyin. After examination， the drug base of this formula is basically clear. Armeniacae Semen Amarum is the dried mature seeds of Armeniaca vulgaris， family Rosaceae. Forsythiae Fructus is the dried fruit of Forsythia suspensa， family Mulleinaceae. Menthae Haplocalycis Herba is the dried above-ground part of Mentha haplocalyx， family Labiatae. Mori Folium is the dried leaves of Morus alba， family Moraceae. Chrysanthemi Flos is the dried head of Chrysanthemum morifolium， family Asteraceae. Platycodonis Radix is the dried root of Eryngium grandiflorum， family Eryngium. Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma is the dried root and rhizome of Glycyrrhiza uralensis of the Leguminosae family， and Phragmitis Rhizoma is the fresh or dried rhizome of Phragmites communis of the Gramineae family. It is recommended that the eight drugs be used in raw form as medicine. The dosage and method of decoction were converted into a modern single dosage of 7.46 g Armeniacae Semen Amarum， 5.60 g Forsythiae Fructus， 2.98 g Menthae Haplocalycis Herba， 9.33 g Mori Folium， 3.73 g Chrysanthemi Flos， 7.46 g Platycodonis Radix， 2.98 g Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma， and 11.19 g Phragmitis Rhizoma， with 400 mL water added， and the solution was boiled to obtain 200 mL， taken twice a day. Sangjuyin has the efficacy of dispersing wind and clearing heat， promoting lung and relieving cough， and it is used for treating the initial onset of wind-warmth and the evidence of evil spirits in the lungs and collaterals. Modern research has shown that Sangjuyin is often used in the treatment of cough， pneumonia， rhinitis， and other respiratory diseases， and the results of this study provide a reference for the later development of Sangjuyin.

OBJECTIVE To study the pharmacokinetic characteristics of antidepressant active components from Jiaotai pills in healthy subjects. METHODS Eight healthy subjects （3 males and 5 females） were recruited and given a single oral dose of 8.55 g of Jiaotai pills. Venous blood samples were collected before administration （0 h） and at intervals from 0.25 to 36.0 hours post- administration. After treating the plasma samples with protein precipitation， the blood concentrations of the antidepressant active ingredients （coptisine， berberine， magnoflorine， and palmatine） in Jiaotai pills were determined using liquid chromatography- tandem mass spectrometry （LC-MS/MS） method. DAS 2.0 software was employed to calculate the pharmacokinetic parameters of healthy subjects [half-life （t1/2）， peak concentration （cmax）， time to peak concentration （tmax）， area under the concentration-time curve （AUC）， and mean residence time （MRT）] using a non-compartmental model. RESULTS After healthy subjects took Jiaotai pills， the drug-time curve of the four antidepressant active ingredients conforms to a two-compartment model and tmax values were similar， with all reaching peak blood concentrations within 2.00 to 4.00 hours post-administration. However， the t1/2 and MRT of coptisine and berberine were significantly longer than that of magnoflorine and palmatine. There were also significant differences in the AUC and cmax among the four antidepressant active ingredients， with magnoflorine exhibiting markedly higher AUC0-t and cmax compared to the other three components. CONCLUSIONS In this study，LC-MS/MS is used to analyze the pharmacokinetic characteristics of the antidepressant active ingredients from Jiaotai pills in healthy subjects， can provide valuable references for the clinical application of Jiaotai pills.

BackgroundAnxiety disorder is a common mental disorder， with its prevalence showing a continuous upward trend， significantly affecting the quality of life and social function of patients. Due to the lack of objective and reliable biomarkers in clinical practice， the early identification and treatment of anxiety disorder have been somewhat limited. Plasma proteins have the potential to serve as biomarkers for mental diseases， however， the causal relationship between them and anxiety disorder remains unclear. ObjectiveTo identify the plasma proteins that have a causal relationship with anxiety disorders， and to elucidate the associated biological pathways， in order to provide references for the search for biomarkers of anxiety disorders and the exploration of potential therapeutic targets. MethodsBased on the protein quantitative trait locus （pQTL） data of 4 907 plasma proteins covering 35 559 Icelandic individuals from the deCODE database， and the genome-wide association studies （GWAS） data of 50 486 patients with anxiety disorders and 330 460 healthy controls， the inverse-variance weighted （IVW） method was used as the main analysis method， supplemented by MR-Egger method， weighted median method， simple model method， and weighted model method for bidirectional Mendelian randomization analysis. Enrichment analysis of gene ontology （GO） and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes （KEGG） pathways was conducted for the related proteins. Sensitivity analysis was performed using Cochran's Q test， MR-Egger intercept test， MR-PRESSO test， and leave-one-out analysis to evaluate the robustness of the results. ResultsA total of 10 plasma proteins were identified as significantly associated with anxiety disorders. Among these， SPATA9 （OR=0.856， 95% CI： 0.784–0.934， P<0.01） and PDE5A （OR=0.911， 95% CI： 0.864–0.961， P<0.01） were identified as protective factors， while CRYGD （OR=1.209， 95% CI： 1.095–1.334， P<0.01）， BTN3A3 （OR=1.045， 95% CI： 1.018–1.073， P<0.01）， SERPINB13 （OR=1.102， 95% CI： 1.040–1.168， P<0.01）， ERBB4 （OR=1.283， 95% CI： 1.109–1.484， P<0.01）， LSAMP （OR=1.096， 95% CI： 1.037–1.158， P<0.01）， ICOSLG （OR=1.283， 95% CI： 1.104–1.490， P<0.01）， DNAJB11 （OR=1.172， 95% CI： 1.076–1.277， P<0.01）， and TREML1 （OR=1.115， 95% CI： 1.054–1.179， P<0.01） were identified as risk factors. The sensitivity analysis showed that the results were robust， with no heterogeneity （Cochran's Q test P>0.05） or pleiotropy （MR-Egger intercept test P>0.05）. Enrichment analysis indicated that these plasma proteins were enriched in biological processes such as T-cell signal transduction， lymphocyte proliferation， cell membrane structure and synaptic function， as well as the intestinal immune network that produces IgA and the ErbB signaling pathway. ConclusionThis study identified 10 plasma proteins associated with anxiety disorders. The functions of these plasma proteins involve multiple biological processes such as neural development and immune regulation.

Objective: To explore the correlation between adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) and digital self harm behavior among college students, so as to provide scientific evidence for preventing and intervening digital self harm behavior. Methods: A total of 5 917 college students from five provinces (Anhui, Guangdong, Hebei, Jilin, and Sichuan) were selected by using a method combining stratified cluster random sampling with convenient sampling to complete an electronic questionnaire survey, from May to June 2024. The survey was conducted to assesse digital self harm behavior and ten dimensions of ACEs, including peer bullying, emotional abuse, physical abuse, sexual abuse, emotional neglect, physical neglect, adverse family events, adverse school or social events, adverse life experiences, and personal adverse problems. A multivariable Logistic regression model was used to analyze the association between ACEs and digital selfharm among college students. Results: The reporting rate of digital self harm behavior among college students was 11.5%. There were statistically significant differences in the reporting rates of digital self harm behaviors among college students with different household registration location and the numbers of close friends ( χ 2=3.91, 8.09 , both P <0.05). Univariate analyses showed that the prevalence of digital self harm behavior was significantly higher among students who reported any type of ACEs compared with those without such experiences ( χ 2=7.99-27.63, all P <0.01). After controlling for demographic variables, each type of ACE was separately included in multivariable Logistic regression models as an independent variable, and all types of ACEs were significantly associated with digital self harm behavior among college students ( OR =1.27-1.91, all P <0.01). Notably, the OR values for sexual abuse and personal adverse problems were relatively high, being 1.91 and 1.83 respectively. Moreover, the risk of reporting digital self harm increased with the number of types of ACEs ( OR= 1.17 , P <0.01). Conclusions ACEs are related factors for digital self harm behavior among college students. Early psychological intervention should be strengthened, particularly for college students who have experienced sexual abuse and personal adverse problems during childhood.

ObjectiveTo investigate the detection status of scoliosis and its influencing factors among primary and secondary school students in Jiangqiao Town in Jiading District of Shanghai, thereby providing evidence for the prevention and management of scoliosis in children and adolescents. MethodsA stratified cluster random sampling was conducted in March 2025. Three primary schools and two secondary schools in Jiangqiao Town were randomly selected; within each school, 3‒4 entire classes were randomly chosen. Screening was performed in accordance with the criteria specified in GB/T 16133‒2014 Screening for Abnormal Spinal Curvature in Children and Adolescents, and a self-designed structured questionnaire was administered to conduct face-to-face surveys (Cronbach’s α=0.730). ResultsA total of 772 valid questionnaires were collected on-site, representing a 100% response rate. The sample consisted of 413 males (53.50%) and 359 females (46.50%), including 385 primary school students (49.87%) and 387 secondary school students (50.13%). The detection rate of scoliosis in primary and secondary school students was 12.05%. The detection rates were 8.72% for males and 15.88% for females, with the female rate being significantly higher than the male rate (χ²=9.29, P=0.002). For primary and secondary school students, the detection rates were 6.75% and 17.31%, respectively, with the secondary school student rate being significantly higher (χ²=20.31, P<0.001). The results of univariate analysis revealed that students with sufficient sleep and standard sitting postures during reading/writing had a significantly lower scoliosis detection rate compared to those with insufficient sleep and non-standard sitting postures (χ²=5.90, P=0.015 and χ²=5.09, P=0.024). Multivariate logistic regression analyses revealed that the detection rate of scoliosis was significantly higher in females than in males (OR=1.846， 95%CI: 1.156‒2.984), and significantly higher in secondary school students than in primary school students (OR=2.722， 95%CI: 1.656‒4.472). ConclusionThe scoliosis detection rate among primary and secondary school students in Jiangqiao Town in Jiading District is relatively high. Females and secondary school students are key populations requiring targeted prevention and control efforts. It is imperative to strengthen health education on scoliosis, promote early screening and diagnosis, and implement timely targeted interventions.

Objective: To investigate the efficacy and safety of centrifugal and membrane double plasma molecular adsorption systems (DPMAS) combined with low-dose plasma exchange in the treatment of liver failure. Methods: A retrospective analysis was performed on 60 patients with liver failure treated in our hospital from April 2024 to June 2025. Based on different plasma separation methods, they were divided into the centrifugal DPMAS group (n=30) and the conventional membrane DPMAS group (n=30). The operational parameters, laboratory indicators, and adverse reactions were compared between the two groups. Results: Under the same plasma volume for adsorption and exchange (P>0.05), the centrifugal group showed lower total circulating blood volume, total blood flow rate, and treatment duration compared to the membrane group [10 794 (9 532, 12 637) vs 19 000 (19 000, 21 000) mL, 60 (60, 65) vs 125 (120, 130) mL/min, 169 (141, 193) vs 207 (183, 210) min, P<0.001]. The centrifugal group also had a lower rate of central venous catheter use [(24/30, 80.00%) vs (30/30, 100.00%), P=0.024] and required more calcium supplementation due to sodium citrate anticoagulation [6 (6, 8) vs 2 (2, 2) g, P<0.001]. No significant changes were observed in WBC, Hb, HCT, and PLT levels before and after treatment with the centrifugal group (P>0.05). There was no statistically significant difference in WBC levels before and after membrane group treatment (P=0.199), but the values of Hb, HCT, and PLT showed significant decreases post-treatment compared to pre-treatment [106.50 (102.75, 126.75) vs 123.00 (109.75, 132.00) g/L, 33.20 (29.90, 34.92) vs 34.85 (31.55, 37.52)%, 85.00 (43.25, 139.50) vs 93.00 (61.50, 145.00)×10 /L, P<0.05]. There was no significant difference in coagulation function indexes before and after treatment with centrifugal group (P>0.05). The membrane group showed reduction in fibrinogen (Fib) levels post-treatment [1.50 (1.20, 1.60) vs 1.60 (1.25, 1.80) g/L, P=0.033]. Both groups demonstrated significant decreases in total bilirubin (TBil) and direct bilirubin (DBil) levels after treatment (centrifugal group: 194.70 (107.50, 276.00) vs 239.15 (173.00, 304.17) μmol/L, 101.00 (64.00, 182.30) vs 157.00 (101.00, 195.00) μmol/L; membrane group: 211.50 (118.00, 240.00) vs 263.50 (204.75, 314.00) μmol/L, 188.00 (122.75, 232.25) vs 219.00 (178.50, 267.25) μmol/L, P<0.05]. The incidence of catheter-related complications was lower in the centrifugal group [(2/30, 6.67%) vs (8/30, 26.67%), P=0.038]. Conclusion: The centrifugal DPMAS system demonstrates advantages such as lower blood flow velocity requirements, shorter treatment duration, minimal impact on platelets, and reduced adverse event rates, indicating promising clinical applications.

Background Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is one of the most common neurodevelopmental disorders in children and adolescents. Current research suggests that environmental factors, such as per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), may be associated with an increased risk of ADHD in offspring. However, most epidemiological evidence originates from non-Chinese populations, with limited research investigating the association between prenatal PFAS and ADHD-like symptoms in Chinese school-aged children. Objective To examine the association between prenatal PFAS exposure and ADHD-like symptoms in 7-year-old children. Methods Based on the Shanghai Birth Cohort, this study included 488 mother-child pairs. PFAS were measured in maternal serum during the second trimester using ultra-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry. The analysis focused on eight specific compounds from three PFAS categories [perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA), perfluorooctanesulfonic acid (PFOS), and perfluorohexanesulfonic acid (PFHxS)]. The hyperactivity subscale of the Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire (SDQ) was used to assess ADHD-like symptoms in children at age 7. Basic demographic information was collected via questionnaires and medical records. Negative binomial regression models were used to evaluate the relationship between individual exposures to the three typical PFAS categories (PFOA, PFOS, and PFHxS) and children's ADHD-like symptoms, while the bayesian kernel machine regression (BKMR) mixture model was employed to assess the overall effect of PFAS mixture exposure on ADHD-like symptoms. Results The detection rates of the eight target PFAS in maternal second-trimester serum were all above 85%, with PFOA exhibiting the highest median concentration (10.21 ng·mL⁻¹). Overall, 14.75% of the children exhibited ADHD-like symptoms. Results from the negative binomial regression models showed that second-trimester exposures to PFOA (IRR=1.15, 95%CI: 1.05, 1.26), n-PFOS (IRR=1.08, 95%CI: 1.01, 1.15), 6m-PFOS (IRR=1.13, 95%CI: 1.05, 1.21), and 1m-PFOS (IRR=1.11, 95%CI: 1.03, 1.18) were associated with an increased risk of ADHD-like symptoms in 7-year-old children. Stratified analyses suggested potentially statistically significant associations in girls [e.g., for PFOA, boys vs. girls: 1.09 (0.96, 1.23) vs. 1.25 (1.09, 1.44), P-int=0.31]. The BKMR mixture model indicated that the risk of ADHD-like symptoms trended upward with increasing PFAS mixture concentrations, although this association was statistically significant only among girls (P < 0.05). Conclusion Prenatal PFAS exposure may be associated with an increased risk of ADHD-like symptoms in 7-year-old children, and this adverse association appears to be more prominent in girls.

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a neurodegenerative disease with clinical hallmarks of progressive cognitive impairment. Synergistic effects of the Aβ-Tau cascade reaction are tightly implicated in AD pathology, and microglial NLRP3 inflammasome activation drives neuronal tauopathy. However, the underlying mechanism of how Aβ mediates NLRP3 inflammasome remains unclear. Herein, we determined that oligomeric Aβ (o-Aβ) bound to microglial Kv2.1 and promoted Kv2.1-dependent potassium efflux to activate NLRP3 inflammasome resulting in neuronal tauopathy by using Kv2.1 inhibitor drofenine (Dfe) as a probe. The underlying mechanism has been intensively investigated by assays with Kv2.1 knockdown in vitro (si-Kv2.1) and in vivo (AAV-ePHP-si-Kv2.1). Dfe deprived o-Aβ of its capability to promote microglial NLRP3 inflammasome activation and neuronal Tau hyperphosphorylation by inhibiting the Kv2.1/JNK/NF-κB pathway while improving the cognitive impairment of 5×FAD-AD model mice. Our results have highly addressed that the Kv2.1 channel is required for o-Aβ-driven microglial NLRP3 inflammasome activation and neuronal tauopathy in AD model mice and highlighted that Dfe as a Kv2.1 inhibitor shows potential in the treatment of AD.
