Objective: To develop QingNangTCM, a specialized large language model (LLM) tailored for expert-level traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) question-answering and clinical reasoning, addressing the scarcity of domain-specific corpora and specialized alignment. Methods: We constructed QnTCM_Dataset, a corpus of 100 000 entries, by integrating data from ShenNong_TCM_Dataset and SymMap v2.0, and synthesizing additional samples via retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) and persona-driven generation. The dataset comprehensively covers diagnostic inquiries, prescriptions, and herbal knowledge. Utilizing P-Tuning v2, we fine-tuned the GLM-4-9B-Chat backbone to develop QingNangTCM. A multi-dimensional evaluation framework, assessing accuracy, coverage, consistency, safety, professionalism, and fluency, was established using metrics such as bilingual evaluation understudy (BLEU), recall-oriented understudy for gisting evaluation (ROUGE), metric for evaluation of translation with explicit ordering (METEOR), and LLM-as-a-Judge with expert review. Qualitative analysis was conducted across four simulated clinical scenarios: symptom analysis, disease treatment, herb inquiry, and failure cases. Baseline models included GLM-4-9B-Chat, DeepSeek-V2, HuatuoGPT-II (7B), and GLM-4-9B-Chat (freeze-tuning). Results: QingNangTCM achieved the highest scores in BLEU-1/2/3/4 (0.425/0.298/0.137/0.064), ROUGE-1/2 (0.368/0.157), and METEOR (0.218), demonstrating a balanced and superior normalized performance profile of 0.900 across the dimensions of accuracy, coverage, and consistency. Although its ROUGE-L score (0.299) was lower than that of HuatuoGPT-II (7B) (0.351), it significantly outperformed domain-specific models in expert-validated win rates for professionalism (86%) and safety (73%). Qualitative analysis confirmed that the model strictly adheres to the “symptom-syndrome-pathogenesis-treatment” reasoning chain, though occasional misclassifications and hallucinations persisted when dealing with rare medicinal materials and uncommon syndromes. Conclusion Combining domain-specific corpus construction with parameter-efficient prompt tuning enhances the reasoning behavior and domain adaptation of LLMs for TCM-related tasks. This work provides a technical framework for the digital organization and intelligent utilization of TCM knowledge, with potential value for supporting diagnostic reasoning and medical education.

Objective To investigate the drug resistance phenotype/genotype and virulence gene carrying status, serotype, and sequence typing (ST) of Campylobacter jejuni in Fengtai District in 2024. Methods The drug resistance phenotype was detected by agar dilution method, and serotyping was performed by real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction (PCR). The whole genome sequencing was used to analyze drug resistance genes, virulence genes, and other characteristics. Results Among the 35 Campylobacter jejuni strains analyzed, the antibiotics with the highest resistance rates were nalidixic acid and ciprofloxacin (both 82.86%), followed by tetracycline (74.89%). All strains exhibited a 100.00% sensitivity rate to erythromycin. The multiple drug resistance rate was 77.14%. The predominant drug resistance genes were gyrA-T86I (94.29%) and tetO (74.29%). The most common serotype was HS:2, accounting for 25 strains. A total of 132 virulence genes were detected. There were 12 clonal complexes (CC) and 24 ST types. Conclusion The drug resistance situation of Campylobacter jejuni in Fengtai District is relatively severe, and the drug resistance phenotype is related to specific genetic mutations to some extent. The serotypes are diverse, the virulence genes are complex, and the pathogenic potential is significant, posing a notable risk for inducing Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS). The high number of ST types indicates substantial genetic diversity.

ObjectiveTo construct B cell conditional knockout Spi1 gene mice and analysis their genotypes to provide an animal model basis for disease pathogenesis and drug target research. MethodsMb1-cre transgenic mice were crossed with Spi1^flox/flox mice. PCR combined with agarose gel electrophoresis was performed for genotyping， and Mb1-cre×Spi1^flox/flox homozygous knockout mice were screened out. Flow cytometry was used to detect the expression of PU.1 protein in various immune cell subsets to verify the specificity of gene knockout. ResultsPCR identification results showed that when using flox primers for detection， only a 220 bp band was amplified， indicating a genotype of Spi1^flox/flox in the mice. When using Mb1-Cre primers for detection， a 383 bp band was amplified， indicating a genotype of Mb1-cre×Spi1^flox/flox in the mice； Flow cytometry results showed that compared to Spi1^flox/flox mice， Mb1-cre×Spi1^flox/flox mice exhibited significantly reduced PU.1 expression levels in bone marrow-derived mononuclear cells， peripheral blood mononuclear cells， and spleen-derived B cells. Moreover， PU.1 exhibited normal expression in other immune cells， such as CD4⁺ T cells and macrophages. ConclusionBy utilizing the Cre/LoxP system and CRISPR/Cas9 technology， this study successfully generates mice with B cell-specific conditional knockout of the Spi1 gene， providing a reliable animal model for in-depth exploration of the specific role of PU.1 in B cell-related diseases.

ObjectiveTo investigate the correlation between different female body mass index （BMI） values and key indicators of in vitro fertilization/intracytoplasmic sperm injection （IVF/ICSI） treatment cycles， as well as their impact on obstetric outcomes. MethodsA retrospective analysis was conducted on data from patients who underwent IVF/ICSI treatment， with 19 834 cycles included after propensity score matching to balance group differences. Based on the Chinese BMI classification standards with extended categories， patients were stratified into five groups： severely underweight （BMI<16）， underweight （16.0≤BMI<18.5）， normal weight （18.5≤BMI<24.0）， overweight （24.0≤BMI<28.0）， and obese （BMI≥28.0）. Baseline characteristics， ovarian stimulation protocols， treatment processes， and assisted reproductive outcomes were compared among the groups. Additionally， 75 delivered patients with complications were followed up to analyze the association between BMI and pregnancy-related complications. ResultsNo statistically significant differences were observed among the five groups in baseline parameters such as age， duration of infertility， or antral follicle count. Regarding ovarian stimulation protocols and processes， a statistically significant difference was found in the number of IVF oocytes retrieved （P<0.001）， with the normal-weight group showing a significantly higher number than both the overweight and obese groups. In terms of assisted reproductive outcomes， no significant differences were observed in biochemical pregnancy rates or birth defect rates. However， cumulative live birth rates differed significantly among the groups （P<0.05）， which was significantly higher in the overweight group than in the normal-weight group. Among the 75 followed-up patients， 25 were diagnosed with gestational hypertension， and 22 with gestational diabetes mellitus， of whom overweight and obese individuals accounted for 60.00% and 45.40% of the respective complications. ConclusionFemale BMI is significantly associated with IVF/ICSI outcomes. Pre-pregnancy body mass evaluation should be emphasized in patients with extremely low body weight. Although the live birth rate of overweight and obese patients was comparable to that of the normal-weight group， weight reduction prior to treatment is strongly recommended to minimize risks of miscarriage， preterm birth， and pregnancy complications.

Objective:To investigate the factors influencing the delayed onset of intrapartum fever following epidural labor analgesia and their impact on maternal and neonatal outcomes.Methods:Select parturients who experienced intrapartum fever following labor analgesia(T≥38.0℃,age≥18 years,singleton pregnancy,ASA classification Ⅱ)between January 1,2021,and December 31,2023.Group them based on the median time of intra-partum fever onset after labor analgesia:those with onset times less than the median were classified as the ear-ly-onset fever group,and those with onset times greater than the median were classified as the late-onset fever group.Using univariate and multivariate Logistic regression analysis to explore factors influencing the delay in in-trapartum fever onset and the pregnancy outcomes of the mothers and newborns in both groups.Results:A total of 253 parturients were included,and the time range of onset of intrapartum fever following epidural labor analgesi-a was 1.83-28.42 hours,with a median fever onset time of 8.00 hours.There were 126 cases in the early-onset group and 127 in the late-onset group.Multivariate Logistic regression analysis indicated that primiparous women,artificial membrane rupture,and neonatal birth weight were independent risk factors for delayed fever onset(OR＞1,P＜0.05),whereas the administration of oxytocin prior to labor analgesia was found to be a protective factor(OR＜1,P＜0.05).The late-onset group exhibited higher levels of white blood cells(WBC),C-reactive pro-tein,longer hospital stays,higher hospitalization costs,greater diagnosis rates of chorioamnionitis,higher NICU ad-mission rates,as well as a higher incidence of neonatal pneumonia,for newborns compared to the early-onset group(P＜0.05).Conclusions:Primiparous women,artificial membrane rupture,and higher neonatal birth weight may be associated with delayed onset of intrapartum fever,while oxytocin administration prior to labor analgesia may offer some protective benefit.The later the onset of intrapartum fever,the worse the clinical outcomes for both mother and infants.

Objective:To construct and validate a prognostic prediction model for patients with ovarian metastases from colorectal cancer after radical resection.Methods:A retrospective case series analysis was conducted on the clinical and pathological data of 81 patients with colorectal cancer and ovarian metastases who underwent radical resection for ovarian metastases at the Department of Colorectal Surgery, Cancer Hospital, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences, between January 2014 and December 2023. The patients were all female, with an age ( M(IQR)) of 49(13) years (range: 22 to 79 years). The primary tumor was located in the colon in 60 cases (74.1%) and in the rectum in 21 cases (25.9%). Univariate and multivariate Cox regression analyses were used to identify independent risk factors affecting prognosis. A risk scoring system was constructed, and patients were assigned to high-risk and low-risk groups based on their risk scores. The predictive performance of the scoring system was assessed, and 5-fold cross-validation was performed to evaluate the model′s stability on the internal dataset. Results:Among the 81 patients with ovarian metastases, a high proportion had T4 stage (58 cases, 71.6%), lymph node positivity (68 cases, 84.0%), and colon cancer (60 cases, 74.1%). Preoperative imaging suggested unilateral ovarian metastasis in 15 patients (23.4%), but pathological examination after bilateral oophorectomy confirmed bilateral ovarian metastases. Among the 17 patients who initially underwent unilateral oophorectomy, 11 developed contralateral ovarian metastases at varying times postoperatively. Univariate Cox proportional hazards regression analysis revealed that positive lymph node ratio ( HR=2.68,95% CI:1.41 to 5.09, P=0.003), N stage ( HR=2.07,95% CI:1.08 to 3.95, P=0.028),maximum diameter of metastatic tumors ( HR=2.27,95% CI:1.04 to 4.96, P=0.040),and peritoneal metastasis or ascites at the time of ovarian metastasis ( HR=2.04,95% CI:1.02 to 4.08, P=0.043) were significantly associated with overall survival in patients with ovarian metastasis from colorectal cancer. Multivariate regression analysis identified that positive lymph node ratio ( HR=3.34,95% CI:1.08 to 10.34, P=0.037) and maximum diameter of metastatic tumors ( HR=2.65,95% CI:1.19 to 5.88, P=0.017) were independent prognostic factors for overall survival following radical oophorectomy in patients with ovarian metastasis from colorectal cancer. Based on the regression coefficients from the multivariate analysis for variables (ovarian metastatic tumor diameter ≥6 cm, positive lymph node ratio ≥0.3,and presence of peritoneal metastasis or ascites), a risk scoring system was developed. Using the optimal cutoff value (154 points) for the risk score,patients were divided into high-risk (19 cases) and low-risk (62 cases) groups. Kaplan-Meier survival curves demonstrated that the high-risk group had significantly lower median overall survival (27 months) and median disease-free survival (22 months) compared to the low-risk group (median overall survival 90 months,median disease-free survival not reached; both P<0.01). Receiver operating characteristic curve analysis showed that the area under the curve(AUC) for predicting 1-,3-,and 5-year overall survival was 0.731(95% CI:0.563 to 0.899), 0.703(95% CI:0.573 to 0.833), and 0.776(95% CI: 0.657 to 0.894), respectively. The AUC for predicting 1-,3-, and 5-year disease-free survival was 0.724(95% CI:0.397 to 0.993),0.710(95% CI:0.514 to 0.906),and 0.688(95% CI:0.478 to 0.898),respectively,indicating good performance of the model.The decision curve analysis showed that the model has good clinical net benefit and the results of the 5-fold cross-validation showed that the model demonstrated stability in the internal dataset. Conclusions:When performing radical resection for ovarian metastasis from colorectal cancer,bilateral oophorectomy should be considered to minimize the risk of postoperative recurrence. Patients with ovarian metastasis from colorectal cancer,characterized by a metastatic tumor diameter ≥6 cm,a positive lymph node ratio ≥0.3,and the presence of peritoneal metastasis or ascites, tend to have a poorer prognosis. Based on these findings,a clinical prognostic scoring system for radical resection of ovarian metastasis from colorectal cancer has been developed to stratify patients into different risk groups and may assist in postoperative risk assessment and management.

Patients with severe aplastic anemia(SAA)often present with neutropenia,and are particularly susceptible to infections,especially following immunosuppressive therapy.Bacillus cereus is a ubiquitous,opportunistic pathogen capable of colonizing healthy individuals and causing infections through various routes.Neutropenia is a common feature in many hematologic disorders,placing affected patients at higher risk for Bacillus cereus infections.This report describes a rare case of Bacillus cereus bacteremia with multiple abscesses in a patient with SAA during the neutropenic phase following immunosuppressive therapy.Given the rarity of such presentations,relevant literature was reviewed and the diagnostic and treatment process was analyzed in detail,with the aim of providing clinical insights and improving the management of similar cases.

Objective: To examine the causal association and potential mechanisms between bone mineral density in different age groups and primary malignant bone tumor based on two sample Mendelian randomization (MR), so as to provide a reference for the prevention and treatment of primary malignant bone tumor. Methods: The genome-wide association study (GWAS) of bone mineral density was obtained from the GEFOS database,which included 66 628 subjects divided into five age groups (0-15, 15-30, 30-45, 45-60, and >60 years) based on the phases of human bone development. The GWAS of primary malignant bone tumor was sourced from the FinnGen database, including 648 cases and 378 749 controls. Using bone mineral density of five age groups as the exposure and primary malignant bone tumor as the outcome, an MR analysis was performed with the inverse-variance weighted (IVW) method. Sensitivity analysis were conducted using Cochran's Q test, MR-Egger regression, MR-PRESSO test and MR Steiger test. The potential mechanisms underlying the causal association between bone density and primary malignant bone tumors were explored using Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) enrichment analysis. Results: The MR analysis results showed that there was a negative causal association between bone density and primary malignant bone tumors in the 30-45 age group (OR=0.301, 95%CI: 0.126-0.721). No statistically significant associations between bone density and primary malignant bone tumors were found in the 0-15, 15-30, 45-60, and >60 age groups (all P>0.05). Sensitivity analysis did not detect heterogeneity, pleiotropy (all P>0.05) and reverse causality. KEGG enrichment analysis revealed that genes highly associated with bone density and primary malignant bone tumors were enriched in the mTOR signaling pathway and the Wnt signaling pathway, among which Low Density lipoprotein Receptor Related protein 5 and Wnt Family Member 16 are key regulatory genes. Conclusion The decrease in bone mineral density among individuals aged 30-45 may increase the risk of primary malignant bone tumors through the mTOR signaling pathway and the Wnt signaling pathway.
