Objective: To identify research priorities on physical and mental comorbidity among children and adolescents in Zhejiang Province, so as to provide a theoretical base for improving their physical and mental health. Methods: In May 2025, 77 experts in the fields of health and education from 11 cities in Zhejiang Province were selected by convenient sampling method to participate in the first round of expert consultation. In June, 2025, snowball sampling was used to expand to 194 experts for the second round of consultation, and it was convenient to select 21 students from primary schools to high schools in Zhejiang Province and 29 parents to empower the evaluation criteria. It applied the Child Health and Nutrition Research Initiative (CHNRI) method in a structured process, which encompassed the definition of the research field, generation of research ideas, scoring, and quantitative ranking of priorities. Research ideas were evaluated against 6 predefined criteria: effectiveness, safety, answerability, feasibility, sustainability, and scientific significance. Results: After 2 rounds of structured consultations, 81 research ideas on physical and mental comorbidity among children and adolescents were established and classified into 7 subthemes: epidemiological characteristics and influencing factors, optimization of primary service systems and policies, comprehensive intervention strategies for physical and mental comorbidity, biological mechanisms and clinical research, the impact of education and environment on physical and mental health, special populations and social support, and digital and technology driven disease prevention and intervention. The top 10 research priorities primarily centered on the subdomain of "epidemiological characteristics and influencing factors" (5 items). The top 3 research priorities were "the association between outdoor activity duration and the incidence of common diseases (including mental disorders) among children and adolescents" "the impact of outdoor activity duration on the physical and mental health of adolescents" "comprehensive intervention strategies for myopia, obesity, and their comorbidities among children and adolescents". Conclusion The framework of priority issues in the field of psychosomatic comorbidity of children and adolescents in Zhejiang Province based on CHNRI method provides a reference for optimizing the allocation of provincial research resources.

ObjectiveTo explore the vascular endothelial injury in male mice caused by exposure to polystyrene microplastics （PS-MPs） and the intervention effect of luteolin on vascular remodeling. Additionally， to investigate the mechanism through the oxidative system and metabolomics. MethodsThirty-two C57BL/6 mice （6-8 weeks old） were randomly divided into the saline group （saline group）， the 0.1 mg/kg PS-MPs exposure group （0.1PS-MPs group）， the 1 mg/kg PS-MPs exposure group （1PS-MPs group）， and the 1 mg/kg PS-MPs + luteolin treatment group （1PS-MPs + Lut group）， with 8 mice in each group. After 8 weeks of intervention， the body weight， blood pressure， aortic organ coefficient， and aortic histopathological changes of mice in each group were detected； the total cholesterol （TC）， triglyceride （TG）， and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol （HDL-C） lipid metabolism-related indicators in the aorta of mice were detected； the reactive oxygen species （ROS）， glutathione （GSH）， and malondialdehyde （MDA） oxidative stress-related indicators were detected； the endothelin （ET-1）， nitric oxide （NO）， vascular endothelial growth factor A （VEGF-A）， vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 （VCAM-1/CD106）， and intercellular adhesion molecule-1 （ICAM-1/CD54） endothelial function-related indicators and serum metabolomics were detected. ResultsCompared to the saline group， exposure to PS-MPs resulted in pathological thickening of the mouse aorta， increased aortic organ coefficient， and elevated blood pressure. Lipid metabolism-related indicators， including TC and TG， were elevated， while HDL-C was reduced， indicating lipid metabolism disorder in mice. Oxidative stress markers such as ROS and MDA increased， whereas GSH decreased， demonstrating oxidative damage. Vascular endothelial inflammation and injury markers， including ET-1， VEGF-A， VCAM-1， and ICAM-1， were upregulated， while the vasodilatory substance NO was downregulated， confirming endothelial injury. Furthermore， serum metabolomics results revealed that PS-MPs exposure induced endothelial damage by disrupting metabolic pathways such as the citrate cycle. Compared to the PS-MPs group， luteolin significantly reversed these effects， attenuating oxidative stress and lipid metabolism disorders， and effectively repairing endothelial injury. ConclusionPS-MPs induce vascular toxicity through oxidative stress and lipid metabolism. Luteolin effectively alleviates endothelial damage and vascular remodeling.

Antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) are antitumor drugs composed of monoclonal antibodies and cytotoxic payload covalently coupled by a linker. Currently, 15 ADCs have been clinically approved worldwide. More than 100 clinical trials at different phases are underway to investigate the newly developed ADCs. ADCs represent one of the fastest growing classes of targeted antitumor drugs in oncology drug development. It takes advantage of the specific targeting of tumor-specific antigen by antibodies to deliver cytotoxic chemotherapeutic drugs precisely to tumor cells, thereby producing promising antitumor efficacy and favorable adverse effect profiles. However, emergence of drug resistance has severely hindered the clinical efficacy of ADCs. In this review, we introduce the structure and mechanism of ADCs, describe the development of ADCs, summarized the latest research about the mechanisms of ADC resistance, discussed the strategies to overcome ADCs resistance, and predicted biomarkers for treatment response to ADC, aiming to contribute to the development of ADCs in the future.

OBJECTIVE: To observe the effects of antagonistic needling therapy on lower limb spasticity and the muscle morphology of the tibialis anterior and gastrocnemius in patients with stroke. METHODS: A total of 100 patients with post-stroke lower limb spasticity were randomly divided into an antagonistic needling group (50 cases, 1 case dropped out) and a routine acupuncture group (50 cases, 1 case dropped out). Both groups received basic treatment and rehabilitation training. The routine acupuncture group was treated with scalp acupuncture at anterior oblique line of vertex-temporal and vertex lateral line 1, combined with body acupuncture at Jianyu (LI15), Hegu (LI4), Zusanli (ST36), Taichong (LR3), etc. on the affected side, with Quchi (LI11) and Hegu (LI4), Zusanli (ST36) and Fenglong (ST40), Yanglingquan (GB34) and Taichong (LR3) connected to an electroacupuncture device, using disperse wave at 2 Hz of frequency. The antagonistic needling group used the same scalp and upper limb acupoints as the routine acupuncture group, with additional antagonistic needling on the lower limb at Yanglingquan (GB34), Qiuxu (GB40), Jiexi (ST41), and Xuanzhong (GB39) on the affected side, with Quchi (LI11) and Hegu (LI4), Yanglingquan (GB34) and Qiuxu (GB40), Jiexi (ST41), and Xuanzhong (GB39) connected to an electroacupuncture device, using disperse wave at 2 Hz of frequency. Both groups received treatment once daily for 6 consecutive days per course, with a total of 4 courses. The modified Ashworth scale (MAS), Holden functional ambulation classification (FAC), lower limb Fugl-Meyer assessment (FMA), composite spasticity scale (CSS), and musculoskeletal ultrasound parameters (thickness and fiber length of the tibialis anterior and gastrocnemius, and pennation angle of the gastrocnemius on both sides) were evaluated before and after treatment. Clinical efficacy was compared between the two groups. RESULTS: Compared before treatment, the MAS grades and CSS scores were decreased in both groups after treatment (P<0.01), with greater reductions in the antagonistic needling group (P<0.05, P<0.01). FAC grades and FMA scores were increased in both groups after treatment (P<0.01, P<0.05), with greater improvements in the antagonistic needling group (P<0.05). The muscle thickness, fiber length of the tibialis anterior, the muscle thickness, fiber length and pennation angle of the gastrocnemius on the affected side were improved in both groups after treatment (P<0.01), with greater improvements in the antagonistic needling group (P<0.01, P<0.05). On the unaffected side, these parameters were also increased after treatment in both groups (P<0.01, P<0.05), but the antagonistic needling group showed smaller increases than the routine acupuncture group (P<0.01, P<0.05). The total effective rate in the antagonistic needling group was 91.8% (45/49), higher than 81.6% (40/49) in the routine acupuncture group (P<0.05). CONCLUSION Antagonistic needling could effectively reduce spasticity, improve motor function, and enhance muscle structure in patients with post-stroke lower limb spasticity.

A 90-year-old female patient with novel coronavirus infection, severe pneumonia, and no history of blood transfusion andtransplantation.The mixed appearance phenomenon appeared in the admission blood group identification, and was sent the sample to our laboratory for difficult blood group identification. In the tube saline method, the patient′s red blood cells were positively reacted with 2 monoclonal anti-A and 5 human anti-A reagents.In the microcolumn gel method, the patient′s red blood cells showed 2 positive and 2 negative reactions with monoclonal anti-A and 5 positive and 1 negative reactions with human anti-A. The patient ′s red blood cells showed negative reaction with peanuts in phytohemagglutinin, and positive reaction with double flower lentils, wild soybeans and a string of purples. The patient ′s red blood cells treated with papain showed negative reaction with all monoclonal anti-A reagents, human anti-A and phytohemagglutinin. The patient ′s ABO gene was sequenced as ABO * B.01/O.01.02, but C1GALT1C1 gene mutation was not founded in the gDNA of the whole blood sample.It is speculated that the exposure of Tn antigen on the patient ′s red blood cells leads to red blood cells polyagglutination, resulting in ABO blood group inconsistency.

Objective:To explore the feasibility of using a simplified multiple sleep latency test (MSLT) for the diagnosis of narcolepsy type 1.Methods:Data from 158 patients with narcolepsy type 1 and 58 patients with non-type 1 narcolepsy who underwent overnight video-polysomnography (V-PSG) and MSLT in the Sleep Center, Department of Neurology, Xijing Hospital, Air Force Military Medical University from March 2019 to April 2024 were retrospectively collected. By reducing the number of naps in the MSLT, the diagnostic consistency between the simplified MSLT and the standard 5-nap MSLT was evaluated using the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve. The DeLong test was used to compare whether there was a statistically significant difference between the simplified MSLT and the standard 5-nap MSLT. Cohen′s Kappa statistical analysis was performed to compare the diagnostic consistency between the simplified MSLT and the standard 5-nap MSLT.Results:The age of the 216 patients who were ultimately enrolled was 17 (13, 30) years, including 152 male patients (70.4%). The Cohen′s Kappa between the simplified 3-nap MSLT and the standard 5-nap MSLT was 0.875, which was 0.903 between the simplified 4-nap MSLT and the standard 5-nap MSLT (Bonferroni-corrected, both P0.001), indicating high and statistically significant agreement for both simplified protocols with the standard test. However, the DeLong test revealed that the area under the curve of the standard 5-nap MSLT (0.900, 95% CI 0.863-0.938) differed significantly from that of the simplified 3-nap MSLT (0.860, 95% CI 0.817-0.904; P0.05), whereas no significant difference was observed between the standard 5-nap MSLT and the simplified 4-nap MSLT (0.876, 95% CI 0.834-0.918; P0.05). Consequently, performing only the first 4 naps was sufficient for diagnosing narcolepsy type 1. Conclusion:The simplified 4-nap MSLT, specifically the first to fourth naps, may be used for the diagnosis of narcolepsy type 1.

Objective To investigate the changes of diameter of the main trunk of the extracranial segment of the facial nerve,local hemodynamics and facial muscle thickness in patients with peripheral facial palsy(PFP)at acute stage by high frequency ultrasound(HFUS).Methods Sixty patients with acute PFP were enrolled as the PFP group,and 30 healthy people were selected as the control group.The following facial param-eters were scanned and recorded using HFUS:diameter of the main trunk of the extracranial segment of the facial nerve(FN-d),facial artery diameter(FA-d),facial artery systolic velocity(FA-Vs),facial artery diastolic velocity(FA-Vd),facial artery resistance index(FA-RI),frontalis muscle thickness(FM-t),depressor anguli oris muscle thickness(DAO-t),and depressor labii inferioris muscle thickness(DLI-t).The feasibility of facial param-eters in the diagnosis of acute-phase peripheral facial palsy(PFP)was evaluated,with intra-group and inter-group variability comparisons performed.Pearson correlation analysis was conducted to evaluate the relationship between acute-phase facial parameters and House-Brackmann(H-B)scale scores in PFP patients.Results(1)The H-B score of the PFP group was significantly lower than that of the control group,and the difference was statistically significant(P＜0.05).(2)The reliability of repeated measurements of facial parameters by different testers is good(ICC＞0.75).(3)The FN-d and FA-RI values on the affected side of PFP group were higher than those on the healthy side and control group,and FA-Vs,FA-Vd,DAO-t and DLI-t values were lower than those on the healthy side and control group,with statistical significance(P＜0.05).(4)The FN-d and FA-RI values of the affected side in the PFP group were negatively correlated with the H-S scale score(r=-0.847,P＜0.05;r=-0.863,P＜0.05);FA Vs,FA Vd,DAO-t,DLI-t are positively correlated with H-S scale scores(r=0.808,P＜0.05;r=0.757,P＜0.05;r=0.836,P＜0.05;r=0.694,P＜0.05).Conclusions HFUS can effectively detect the characteristic changes such as the increase in the diameter of the extrcranial facial nerve trunk,local microcircula-tion disturbance and facial muscle atrophy in patients with PFP in the acute stage,and the increase and decrease of FN-d,FA Vs,FA Vd,FA-RI,DAO-t,and DLI-t can accurately reflect the improvement or progress of PFP,which has important guiding significance for clinical disease monitoring and efficacy evaluation.

Objective:To investigate clinical characteristics of immunocompromised individuals with herpes zoster.Methods:A retrospective study was conducted on 78 immunocompromised patients with herpes zoster hospitalized at Zhongda Hospital affiliated to Southeast University from January 2016 to December 2023, and these patients were assigned to the observation group. During the same period, 78 immunocompetent inpatients with herpes zoster matched (1∶1 ratio) by age and admission time served as a control group. General data, clinical manifestations, and laboratory findings (including blood routine test, liver and kidney function, and inflammatory markers) were compared between the two groups.Results:In the observation group, there were 27 males and 51 females, with the age being 65.76 ± 14.47 years; the main causes of immunocompromise in this group were solid tumors (47 cases, 60.26%) and hematologic tumors (7 cases, 8.97%) ; 26 (33.33%) patients with autoimmune diseases were treated with prednisone at a dose of ≥ 10 mg/d for more than 2 weeks. In the control group, there were 35 males and 43 females, with the age being 67.73 ± 13.89 years. No significant differences were found between the two groups in terms of gender, age, time from the onset of rashes or pain to hospitalization, time to lesion healing, the order of appearance of pain and rashes, the affected side of the body, or the proportion of patients with disseminated herpes zoster (all P > 0.05). However, there was a significant difference in the distribution of affected nerve segments between the two groups ( P = 0.013) ; the main affected nerves were the thoracic and brachial nerves (34 cases, 43.59%) and the lumbosacral nerves (29 cases, 37.18%) in the observation group, while the lumbosacral nerves (31 cases, 39.74%) and cranial-cervical nerves (25 cases, 32.05%) were more commonly affected in the control group. The skin lesions in both groups mainly manifested as blisters, pustules and/or hemorrhagic blisters, and the proportion of patients with pustules and/or hemorrhagic blisters was significantly higher in the observation group (25 cases, 32.05%) than in the control group (11 cases, 14.10%; χ2 = 7.08, P = 0.008). The observation group showed a significantly higher proportion of patients with fever (24 cases, 30.77%), frequency of oral analgesic use during hospital stay [2.00 (1.26, 2.33) times/day], and recurrence rate (6 cases, 7.69%) compared with those in the control group (13 cases, 16.67%; 1.43 [1.00, 2.00] times/day; 0, respectively). Additionally, the observation group exhibited significant increases in several parameters compared with the control group, including the proportions of patients with anemia (27 cases [34.62%] vs. 6 cases [7.69%]), kidney function abnormalities (9 cases [11.54%] vs. 2 cases [2.56%]), elevated alanine aminotransferase/aspartate aminotransferase ratios, increased erythrocyte sedimentation rates, and with elevated C-reactive protein levels, as well as those with decreased white blood cell counts, albumin levels, prealbumin levels, and with CD8 + T cell counts (all P < 0.05). In terms of novel inflammatory markers, the observation group showed significantly increased neutrophil/lymphocyte ratios, red blood cell distribution width/hemoglobin ratios, and C-reactive protein/albumin ratios, but significantly decreased albumin/fibrinogen ratios and platelet/neutrophil ratios compared with the control group (all P < 0.05) . Conclusion:Compared with the immunocompetent patients with herpes zoster, the immunocompromised patients with herpes zoster showed poorer cell-mediated immunity, more complex clinical manifestations, more severe systemic inflammatory responses, more pronounced pain, and higher likelihood of recurrent herpes zoster.
