Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder （ADHD） is often accompanied by tic disorder. The core pathogenesis is considered to be ministerial fire scorching yin and internal stirring of deficient wind， which leads to disharmony between the body and spirit， resulting in clinical manifestations. The treatment principles emphasize nourishing yin fluids， calming ministerial fire， and extinguishing endogenous wind （内风）. The method of nourishing yin fluids is applied throughout the entire treatment process， commonly using ingredients such as Shudihuang （Rehmanniae Radix Praeparata）， Shanzhuyu （Corni Fructus）， Gouqizi （Lycii Fructus）， Wuweizi （Schisandrae Chinensis Fructus）， and Tusizi （Cuscutae Semen）. These are combined with approaches to harmonize the zang-fu organs， primarily including extinguishing liver wind， clearing heart fire， nourishing kidney water， and strengthening spleen earth， thereby stabilizing ministerial fire and extinguishing endogenous wind. Additionally， emotional regulation and smoothing emotional constraint are essential to improve clinical symptoms in children with ADHD comorbid with tic disorder.

OBJECTIVE To establish a method for simultaneous determination of venetoclax， busulfan and voriconazole in plasma of patients with acute myeloid leukemia （AML）， and apply it clinically. METHODS Plasma samples were subjected to protein precipitation using acetonitrile and subsequently analyzed by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry （LC-MS/MS） using venetoclax-D 8 ， busulfan-D 8 and posaconazole as internal standards. The separation was performed on a Phenomenex Kinetex ® C 18 column with a mobile phase composed of 0.1% formic acid solution （2 mmol/L ammonium acetate）-0.1% formic acid in acetonitrile （gradient elution） at a flow rate of 0.8 mL/min. The column temperature was set at 40 ℃， the sample size was 5 μL， and the total run time was 3.10 min. An electrospray ionization source was employed， and positive ion scanning was conducted using multiple reaction monitoring mode. The ion pairs used for quantitative analysis included m/z 868.4→636.3 （venetoclax）， m/z 264.1→151.1 （busulfan）， and m/z 350.1→224.0 （voriconazole）. The above LC-MS/MS method was adopted to determine plasma concentrations of venetoclax and voriconazole in 10 AML patients， as well as plasma concentration of busulfan in 5 patients undergoing conditioning treatment for allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. RESULTS The linear ranges of venetoclax， busulfan and voriconazole were 50-10 000， 15-3 000 and 50-10 000 ng/mL， respectively （ R 2 ≥0.999 0）， with lower limits of quantification of 50， 15 and 50 ng/mL， respectively. The RSDs of intra-day and inter-day precision tests for all three analytes were all less than 10%， with accuracy （relative errors） ranging from －10.00% to 12.96%. The average extraction recovery ranged from 92.54% to 100.95%， and the average matrix effect was 89.98%-101.49%. Dilution reliability covered all dilution factors used in the test samples， and the absolute values of relative errors in stability tests were all≤16.25%. The plasma concentrations of venetoclax， busulfan and voriconazole in enrolled patients were 496.20-4 250.45， 233.48-2 002.28 and 475.51-5 710.18 ng/mL， respectively. CONCLUSIONS The LC-MS/MS method established in this study is rapid， sensitive and easy to operate， and can be used for the therapeutic drug monitoring of venetoclax， busulfan and voriconazole.

Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis （MASH） is a complex liver disease characterized by abnormal fat accumulation in the liver， accompanied by inflammation and hepatocyte injury， and it can gradually progress to liver fibrosis， liver cirrhosis， and even hepatocellular carcinoma. MASH has a complex pathogenesis involving multiple links such as insulin resistance， de novo lipogenesis （DNL）， oxidative stress， and mitochondrial dysfunction. In recent years， mitochondrial pyruvate carrier （MPC） has attracted wide attention as a key molecular target for regulating lipid metabolism. This article systematically reviews the mechanism of action of MPC in MASH， with a focus on how inhibiting MPC expression regulates lipid synthesis and metabolism by reducing DNL production and modulating signaling pathways such as AMPK-ACC， thereby improving liver inflammation. In addition， this article discusses the potential application prospects of MPC inhibitors in MASH treatment， in order to provide new ideas for future clinical research on MASH management.

Steroid-induced osteonecrosis of the femoral head(SNOFH)is a prevalent challenging condition in orthopedics,characterized by a high disability rate and intricate pathophysiological mechanisms including diminished an-giogenesis and impaired osteogenic function.The concept of osteogenesis-angiogenesis coupling involves the interplay be-tween osteoblasts and angiogenesis.Restoring the blood supply to bone tissue,boosting bone cell activity,and facilitating bone regeneration are crucial for the recovery of SNOFH patients.Research has demonstrated the significant role of mi-croRNAs(miRNAs)in the coordination of osteogenesis and angiogenesis.MiRNAs have the ability to concurrently regu-late multiple target genes and signaling pathways associated with osteogenesis and angiogenesis,effectively stimulating the regeneration of bones and blood vessels.By considering the interaction of multiple miRNAs and their target genes,the de-velopment of a multi-target combination therapy approach could greatly enhance the treatment outcomes for SNOFH.Through a thorough investigation of miRNA interactions in the regulation of osteogenesis and angiogenesis,the progression of the disease can be elucidated,offering a fundamental basis for early diagnosis,precise treatment,and prognosis evalua-tion of SNOFH.This paper aims to uncover the pivotal nodes and regulatory connections in SNOFH by summarizing the in-volvement of miRNAs in the coupling of osteogenesis and angiogenesis.By identifying potential therapeutic targets and un-derstanding the coordinated function of miRNAs in osteogenesis and angiogenesis coupling,valuable insights can be gained for the personalized treatment of SNOFH.

Objective To explore the characteristics of incorrect opinions in re-examination cases,analyze the reasons,characteristics,and commonalities of different forensic opinions in the same injury case during re-examination,and provide references for similar case acceptance,forensic procedures,analysis and argumentation,and the application of relevant provisions.Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on the re-examination cases of human injury degree accepted by the Forensic Judicial Appraisal Center of Guizhou Medical University and West China Forensic Medical Appraisal Center of Sichuan University from January 2020 to December 2024.Results Among the 81 collected re-examination cases of human injury degree,the injury types mainly included fractures,soft tissue injuries,tendon injuries,craniocerebral injuries,nerve injuries,joint injuries,and organ injuries.Of these,74 cases were entrusted by the public security system,and 72 cases used primary injuries as the basis for assessment.Seven cases had more than 3 appraisals and 74 cases had two appraisals,of which 53 cases had inconsistent opinions between the previous and current appraisals,including 29 cases with an upgraded injury grade and 24 cases with a downgraded injury grade.Conclusion When accepting re-examination cases,forensic experts need to choose relevant objective examination techniques in forensic clinical medicine,such as clinical imaging techniques,to determine whether imaging data serves as key evidence in the case,and seek assistance from experts in related fields when necessary.In the case acceptance stage,it is necessary to collect and review key assessment materials such as medical records,the first assessment opinion,and interrogation records.Forensic experts should also enhance their understanding of legal provisions,timing of assessment,their image-reading ability,and work to standardize the forensic assessment process.

Purpose To develop a nomogram combined radiomics,clinical and CT morphographic features for the prediction of the acquired T790M mutation in patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer with resistance after the duration of first-line epidermal growth factor receptor(EGFR)-tyrosine kinase inhibitor(TKI)treatment.Materials and Methods The chest CT images and clinical data of 116 patients who underwent secondary biopsy after disease progression during first-line TKI treatment for advanced non-small cell lung cancer with EGFR sensitive mutations,from December 2016 to December 2022 in Shaoxing People's Hospital were retrospectively analyzed.All patients were randomly divided into a training cohort(n=81)and a validation cohort(n=35),at a ratio of 7︰3.The regions of interest of the lesion were delineated,and radiomics features were extracted.Feature selection was performed via the maximum relevance minimum redundancy and the least absolute shrinkage and selection operator methods.Clinical features were selected via univariate and multivariate Logistic regression.A nomogram combined clinical and radiomics features was subsequently constructed.The predictive ability of the combined model was evaluated via receiver operator characteristic curve,calibration curves and decision curve analysis.Results The progression-free survival of first-line EGFR-TKIs(OR=1.086,P=0.041),initial EGFR profile(OR=0.280,P=0.021),vascular convergence(OR=4.050,P=0.036)and air bronchogram(OR=3.265,P=0.030)were highly correlated with the acquired T790M mutation.The combined model demonstrated good predictive performance for acquired T790M mutation,both in the training set(AUC=0.867,95%CI 0.790-0.944)and the validation set(AUC=0.895,95%CI 0.786-1.000).The calibration curve showed good calibration power,and the decision curve analysis demonstrated a significant net benefit.Conclusion A radiomics-clinical nomogram based on CT radiomics has the potential to predict acquired T790M mutation and could be a complementary tool for T790M mutation detection after resistance to first-or second-generation EGFR-TKIs.

Background/Aims: Liver transplantation is the most effective treatment for the sickest patients with acute-on-chronic liver failure (ACLF). However, the influence of donor age on liver transplantation, especially in ACLF patients, is still unclear. Methods: In this study, we used the data of the Scientific Registry of Transplant Recipients. We included patients with ACLF who received liver transplantation from January 1, 2007, to December 31, 2017, and the total number was 13,857. We allocated the ACLF recipients by age intogroup I (donor age ≤17 years, n=647); group II (donor age 18–59 years, n=11,423); and group III (donor age ≥60 years, n=1,787). Overall survival (OS), graft survival, and mortality were com-pared among the three age groups and the four ACLF grades. Cox regression was also analyzed. Results: The 1-, 3-, and 5-year OS rates were 89.6%, 85.5%, and 82.0% in group I; 89.4%, 83.4%, and 78.2% in group II; and 86.8%, 78.4%, and 71.4% in group III, respectively (p<0.001).When we analyzed the different effects of donor age on OS with different ACLF grades, in groupsII and III, we observed statistical differences. Finally, the cubic spline curve told us that the relative death rate changed linearly with increasing donor age. Conclusions Donor age is related to OS and graft survival of ACLF patients after transplanta-tion, and poorer results were associated with elderly donors. In addition, different donor ages have different effects on recipients with different ACLF grades.
