Objective: To explore the effect of a computer assisted audiovisual combined intervention model on the core symptoms of children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD), in order to provide references for enriching intervention and treatment methods for ASD children. Methods: From December 2023 to March 2024, 36 ASD children aged 4-8 years were recruited from Tianjin Disabled Persons Rehabilitation Center and Xinxinyu Children s Rehabilitation Center, and were divided into a training group (22 cases) and a control group (14 cases). The training group completed a 12 week audiovisual training course (visual sessions:twice a week, for 50-60 minutes each session; auditory sessions:three times a week, for 15 minutes each time), while the control group received only conventional treatment interventions. Before and after the intervention, the core symptoms of ASD children were assessed using the Short Sensory Profile (SSP), Social Responsiveness Scale (SRS), and Repetitive Behavior Questionnaire-2 ( RBQ- 2). Eye tracking experiments were used to test preferences for social attention. Results: Before the intervention, there were no statistically significant differences in the total scores and factor scores of the SSP and RBQ-2 scales between the two groups ( t =-1.63, 0.38, both P >0.05). The SRS total score, social communication, and restricted interests and repetitive behavior factor scores of the training group (90.68±25.83, 33.36±11.80, 15.64±7.00) were significantly higher than those of the control group (72.29±19.84, 24.93±7.85, 10.21±5.67) ( t =2.27, 2.36, 2.43, all P <0.05). Children in the training group with higher social communication factor scores before the intervention scored lower than the control group at the post intervention test (simple slope=-14.17, t =-2.48, P = 0.02), while there was no statistically significant difference in post intervention scores between children with lower social communication factor scores before the intervention and the control group (simple slope=2.31, t =0.57, P >0.05). Eye tracking experiments showed that the total fixation time on geometric images decreased significantly more in the training group [ -4.56 (-11.42, 1.21)] compared to the control group [6.55 (-0.32, 16.53)] after the intervention ( Z=2.48, P <0.05). Conclusions The computer assisted audiovisual intervention model can effectively improve the core symptoms of ASD children with poorer social communication levels. The promotion of the intervention model needs to consider individual differences in ASD.

ObjectiveTo investigate the imaging features of calcium salt deposition and serological markers in patients with alveolar echinococcosis through a retrospective analysis， as well as independent risk factors for the degree of calcium salt deposition in lesions， and to provide a basis for assessing disease process. MethodsA retrospective analysis was performed for the imaging and clinical data of 107 patients with alveolar echinococcosis who were admitted to The First Affiliated Hospital of Shihezi University from December 2023 to June 2025， and according to the volume of calcium salt deposition， they were divided into non-deposition group with 16 patients， mild deposition group with 52 patients， moderate deposition group with 16 patients， and severe deposition group with 23 patients. A one-way analysis of variance or the Kruskal-Wallis H test was used for comparison of continuous data between groups， and the χ² test or Fisher’s exact test was used for comparison of categorical data between groups. The four groups were further combined into the low deposition group （no/mild deposition） and the high deposition group （moderate/severe deposition）. A binary logistic regression analysis was used to investigate the independent influencing factors for calcium salt deposition， and a predictive model was established. The receiver operating characteristic （ROC） curve was used to assess the predictive performance of the model， and the Bootstrap method was used for internal validation. ResultsThere were significant differences between the four groups in sex distribution， involvement of other sites， white blood cell count， lymphocyte percentage， fibrinogen， uric acid， sodium ion， chloride ion， and calcium ion （all P<0.05）. The univariate analysis showed that there were significant differences between the four groups in sex， involvement of other sites， white blood cell count， lymphocyte percentage， fibrinogen， alanine aminotransferase， albumin， creatinine， uric acid， sodium ion， chloride ion， and calcium ion （all P<0.1）. The multi-collinearity diagnosis showed that the VIF values for all continuous variables ranged from 1.104 to 1.760， suggesting that collinearity did not affect modeling. An ordinal logistic regression model was established based on sex， involvement of other sites， calcium ion， lymphocyte percentage， and uric acid. The multivariate analysis showed that lymphocyte percentage （odds ratio ［OR］=1.106， 95% confidence interval ［CI］： 1.041 — 1.174， P=0.001） and blood calcium level （OR=0.005， 95%CI： 0.000 —0.230， P=0.007） were independent influencing factors for the degree of calcium salt deposition. The regression equation was established as Logit（P）=8.231 + 0.100 × lymphocyte percentage -5.344 × calcium ion. The ROC curve analysis showed that the model had an area under the ROC curve of 0.716， with a Youden index of 0.353， a sensitivity of 1.000， and a specificity of 0.353. The Hosmer-Lemeshow test showed that the model had poor calibration （χ²=20.688， P=0.008）. The Bootstrap method with 1000 repeated samples showed that the estimated values of lymphocyte percentage （OR=1.106， 95%CI： 1.049 — 1.186， P=0.002） and calcium ion （OR=0.005， 95%CI： 0.000 — 0.214， P=0.010） were consistent with the original model， and the confidence intervals did not include 1， which further supported the reliability of the model. ConclusionBoth lymphocyte percentage and blood calcium level are independent influencing factors for calcium salt deposition in alveolar echinococcosis， and the degree of calcium salt deposition in alveolar echinococcosis lesions increases with the reduction in blood calcium level and the increase in lymphocyte percentage.

Retinopathy caused by myopia is the first cause of irreversible blinding eye disease in China.The TCM methods to prevent and control myopia mainly include Chinese materia medica and TCM appropriate techniques,which have the advantages of good efficacy,simple operation,and few adverse reactions.This paper believed that internal and external pathogenic factors act on the brain and eyes,breaking their homeostasis,leading to rhythmic disorders,and imbalance of essence,qi and blood is the main pathogenesis of myopia.Based on the idea of"nature and human in the same rhythm"and"the same treatment for common diseases",targeting the above pathogenesis,the method of"brain-eye synchronization"was proposed to restore the homeostasis of the brain and eyes to prevent and control myopia in children and adolescents,and the treatment rules were to regulate the rhythms of the time,harmonize the qi and blood,nourish the blood to soften the tendons,and replenish the essence and blood,so as to achieve the effect of brain-eye synchronization and the treatment of the spirit and the body together.This article summarized the theoretical basis of"brain-eye synchronization"and its clinical application in traditional Chinese and Western medicine,with a view to providing new ideas for the prevention and control of myopia in children and adolescents.

Traditional Chinese medicine upholds the unity of nature and humanity as its fundamental principle,asserting that man is in harmony with heaven and earth and corresponds to the sun and moon.Human life processes align with the circadian rhythms of nature,exhibiting periodic temporal changes-concepts that Western medicine defines as biological rhythms.The"opening-closing-pivot"of the three yin and three yang meridians represents the primary mode of interaction between nature and humanity.This mechanism regulates the transformation of yin and yang to qi within the body,ensuring synchronization with the circadian rhythm.Building upon this foundation,the concept of"the harmony of rhythms and states"was proposed to explain human growth and aging."Rhythms"encompass not only circadian cycles but also the movement of qi and blood,as well as the contraction rhythm of muscle fascia,among other physiological processes."States"refer to the dynamic evolution and transformation of qi during the"opening-closing-pivot"stages in both time and space."Harmony"pertains not only to the individual physiological balance of"rhythms"or"states"but also to their coherent interaction.The fundamental cause of myopia is"the disharmony of rhythms and states",considering that rhythm disorders,qi and blood disorders,and fascia imbalances contribute to this disease.Based on this understanding,myopia prevention and treatment should center on"regulating rhythms and states",with adjusting the pivot to brighten the eyes as the core therapeutic principle throughout the entire cycle of myopia.Treatment should be tailored to different disease stages and supplemented with methods such as time-based regulation,qi and blood harmonization,tendon relaxation and collateral dredging,and essence and blood nourishment to prevent and manage myopia effectively.

Objective:To investigate the specific mechanisms underlying the protective effect of interleukin (IL) -27 in the pathogenesis of psoriasis.Methods:Five skin tissue samples from healthy individuals and 6 lesional skin samples from psoriasis patients were collected, and IL-27 expression was determined by immunohistochemical staining. Il27ra gene knockout (KO) mice were constructed. Psoriasis-like mouse models were established with topical imiquimod in 5 wild-type (WT) mice and 6 KO mice. Mouse skin lesions were evaluated using the modified Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (mPASI), and lesional skin tissues were collected for hematoxylin and eosin (HE) staining to observe changes in epidermal thickness. Single-cell suspensions were prepared with skin lesions and skin-draining lymph nodes of 4 WT mice and 3 KO mice, and changes in immune cells (including T cells, γδ T cells, and neutrophils) were analyzed using flow cytometry. Additionally, skin-draining lymph node cells were isolated from 9 normal WT mice, and IL-17A expression was stimulated using a T-cell receptor agonist (CD3/28 activating antibodies, αCD3/28) or cytokines (IL-23 + IL-1β), followed by the addition of IL-27; peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) were isolated from 6 psoriasis patients, and IL-17A expression was stimulated using the T-cell receptor agonist, followed by the addition of IL-27; the effect of IL-27 on IL-17A expression in T cells was analyzed using flow cytometry and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Measurement data were compared between two groups using the t test. Results:Immunohistochemical staining revealed a significant reduction in IL-27 expression in psoriatic lesions (mean fluorescence intensity: 9.85 ± 3.07) compared with the normal skin (19.45 ± 2.51, t = 5.60, P < 0.001). Animal experiments demonstrated that the KO mice exhibited significantly aggravated psoriasis-like skin inflammation (mPASI: 4.00 ± 0.89) and significantly increased epidermal thickness (115.50 ± 7.69 μm) compared with the WT mice (mPASI: 2.80 ± 0.84, t = 2.28, P = 0.049; epidermal thickness: 92.26 ± 8.76 μm, t = 4.70, P = 0.001) ; compared with the WT mice, the KO mice showed significantly increased proportions of T cells (11.22% ± 2.76% vs. 7.08% ± 0.85%) and dermal γδ T cells (4.78% ± 0.39% vs. 2.78% ± 0.49%) among live cells in the lesions ( t = 2.91, 2.75, respectively, both P < 0.05), as well as significantly increased proportions of Th17, IL-17 + γδ T, Th22, and IL-22 + γδ T cells in the skin-draining lymph nodes (all P < 0.05), but no significant difference in the proportion of neutrophils in the lesions (WT: 13.57% ± 8.36%, KO: 14.43% ± 9.13%; t = 0.13, P = 0.902). Experiments with different stimuli showed that IL-27 significantly suppressed T-cell receptor agonist-induced IL-17A expression in murine γδ T cells (αCD3/28 group: 1.00 ± 0.11, αCD3/28 + IL-27 group: 0.76 ± 0.13; t = 3.54, P = 0.004), while there was no significant difference in IL-17A expression between cells induced by IL-23 + IL-1β with the IL-27 co-culture and those without ( t = 1.34, P > 0.05). ELISA showed that IL-27 significantly reduced the IL-17A concentration in the culture supernatant of draining lymph node cells stimulated by the T-cell receptor agonist (αCD3/28 group: 1 535.00 ± 97.76 pg/ml, αCD3/28 + IL-27 group: 1 030.00 ± 287.90 pg/ml, t = 3.29, P = 0.031), but did not reduce the IL-17A concentration induced by IL-23 + IL-1β ( t = 0.09, P > 0.05). Flow cytometry indicated that IL-27 significantly inhibited the T-cell receptor agonist-induced IL-17A expression in T cells from psoriasis patients (αCD3/28 group: 4.28 ± 3.25, αCD3/28 + IL-27 group: 3.04 ± 2.65, t = 4.46, P = 0.007) . Conclusion:IL-27 appeared to play a protective role in psoriasis by suppressing IL-17A secretion from T cells.
