Objective To assess the current status of microbial and parasitic quality control for laboratory animals in Jiangxi Province by analyzing microbiological and parasitic test results from production facilities between 2020 and 2024, and to provide a basis for enhancing quality control measures. MethodsIn accordance with the current national standards for laboratory animals at the time of testing, the Jiangxi Provincial Laboratory Animal Quality Inspection Station (affiliated to Institute of Occupational Medicine of Jiangxi) conducted microbial and parasitic testing on 451 laboratory animals of 4 species from 6 laboratory animal production units in Jiangxi Province between 2020 and 2024, and analyzed the quality status of laboratory animals in the province. ResultsPasteurella pneumotropica was detected in one mouse sample in 2020, with a detection rate of 5.00%. Pseudomonas aeruginosa was detected in one mouse sample and mouse hepatitis virus antibody was detected in another mouse sample in 2023, with a detection rate of 2.78%, respectively. No microorganisms or parasites that should be excluded from SPF grade mice as specified in the national standards were detected in 2021, 2022, or 2024, with a qualification rate of 100.00%. Pasteurella pneumotropica was detected in four rat samples in 2020, with a detection rate of 20.00%. Pseudomonas aeruginosa was detected in two rat samples in 2021, with a detection rate of 10.00%, and Tyzzer's disease agent antibody was detected in four rat samples in 2024, with a detection rate of 10.00%. No microorganisms or parasites that should be excluded from SPF grade rats as specified in the national standards were detected in 2022 or 2023, with a qualification rate of 100.00%. For rabbits and guinea pigs, no microorganisms or parasites required to be tested for conventional grade rabbits and guinea pigs as specified in the national standards were detected from 2020 to 2024, with the qualification rate of both species reaching 100.00%. ConclusionBased on the microbial and parasitic testing results, the quality of rabbits and guinea pigs in Jiangxi Province is satisfactory. However, some issues persist with rats and mice. It is recommended to enhance the quality of experimental animals in Jiangxi Province by increasing the frequency of random inspections by quality testing units or by improving the self-inspection capabilities of production and user facilities.

OBJECTIVE To provide scientific reference for perfecting the record-filing management policy of traditional Chinese medicine preparations formulated via traditional processes for medical applications （hereinafter referred to as “TCM preparations”） in medical institutions， and further promote the sound development of the research and record-filing work of such preparations. METHODS A literature review combined with cross-sectional research was carried out. We collected policy documents and preparation information related to the record-filing of TCM preparations issued by national and provincial drug administration authorities on official websites during 2018-2025. A comparative analysis was conducted on the implementation and revision of core policy documents for the registration management of TCM preparations across provinces， the scope of record-filing dosage forms， conditions for rejection of record-filing， and exemptions for registration materials. Statistical analysis on the quantity and dosage forms of record-filing preparations in each province was conducted by means of data induction and trend chart plotting， and targeted suggestions were put forward to optimize the management pathway of record-filing. RESULTS CONCLUSIONS There was obvious heterogeneity in record-filing policies among provinces. Twelve provinces refined the applicable dosage forms for record-filing， fifteen provinces supplemented conditions for rejection of record-filing （16 items in total）， and nine provinces expanded the scope of material exemptions. The number of recorded preparations presented a striking regional imbalance：Qinghai had the largest quantity of 4 269 varieties， while Hainan only had 14 varieties， with a gap of more than 300 times. The recorded preparations were mainly traditional dosage forms including pills （6 928 varieties） and powders （4 360 varieties）. Only 12 provinces formulated the provincial catalog for TCM preparations allocation. In most regions， preparation circulation was only permitted within medical consortia， leading to a low transformation rate of scientific and technological achievements of preparations. It is recommended to optimize the record-filing management pathway from three aspects： strengthening policy standardization while maintaining flexibility， streamlining record-filing procedures and documentary requirements， and reinforcing technical support and achievement transformation. These measures can reduce regional policy differences， improve work efficiency of record-filing， and advance the standardized development and clinical value transformation of hospital-made TCM preparations.

Sichuan Province is a hilly schistosomiasis-endemic province in China with the highest endemicity and largest coverage. During the period of more than 70 years of integrated control, there are five distinct phases of schistosomiasis control in Sichuan Province, including baseline investigation, Oncomelania hupensis snail control, chemotherapy for both humans and livestock, management of source of Schistosoma japonicum infections, and sustained control and intensified surveillance and early warning, and a package of key interventions are implemented, including environmental modification, snail control with chemical treatment, large-scale chemotherapy for humans and livestock, management of source of S. japonicum infections, intensified integrated control, establishment of an early warning and surveillance system. As a result, schistosomiasis has been eliminated across all 63 disease-endemic counties (cities, districts) in Sichuan Province by June 2025. Government-led multi-sectoral collaborations, science and technology-supported precision control strategies, and a sustainable control model tailored to the ecological and socio-economic conditions in endemic regions are essential to achieving the target of schistosomiasis elimination in Sichuan Province.

This paper systematically analyzes schistosomiasis transmission risks during the elimination stage and reviews the evolution of the schistosomiasis surveillance system in China from a One Health perspective, with a special emphasis on schistosomiasis surveillance and response practices during the elimination stage from a One Health perspective. These practices include precise screening of human schistosomiasis under low-endemicity conditions, systematic monitoring of schistosomiasis in domestic and wild animals, ecological management of Oncomelania snails, and information-coordinated responses. Nevertheless, the current surveillance and response system for schistosomiasis suffers from challenges of insufficient cross-sectoral coordination and complex external environments, which constrain precise schistosomiasis surveillance and response in China. Therefore, it is urgently necessary to integrate coordination mechanisms, empower the surveillance system with technological innovation, improve capacity building, and actively promote diverse social participation in the One Health framework, so as to consolidate current schistosomiasis control achievements and achieve the target for schistosomiasis elimination across China, which may provide a replicable technical model for global zoonoses control.

Body weight abnormalities, including overweight, obesity, and underweight, have become a dual public health challenge in Chinese adults: overweight and obesity lead to a variety of chronic complications, while underweight increases the risks of malnutrition, sarcopenia, and organ dysfunction. To systematically address these issues, multidisciplinary experts in endocrinology, sports science, nutrition, and psychiatry from various regions have held multiple weight management seminars. Based on the latest epidemiological data and clinical evidence, they expanded the guideline to include assessment and intervention strategies for underweight, in addition to the core content of obesity management. This guideline outlines the etiological mechanisms, evaluation methods, and multidimensional management strategies for overweight and obesity, covering key areas such as diagnosis and assessment, medical nutrition therapy, exercise prescription, pharmacological intervention, and psychological support. It is intended to provide a scientific and standardized approach to weight management across the adult population, aiming to curb the rising prevalence of obesity, mitigate complications associated with abnormal body weight, and improve nutritional status and overall quality of life.

Central venous lesion represents one of the common complications affecting vascular access in hemodialysis patients, potentially compromising hemodialysis efficacy. The management of symptomatic central venous lesion remains a critical challenge in clinical practice. Current primary treatment strategies include percutaneous transluminal angioplasty and percutaneous transluminal stenting. Advances in techniques such as sharp recanalization and the mother-child platform approach, along with the development of high-pressure balloons, paclitaxel- coated balloons, and covered stents, have significantly improved procedural success rates. However, unresolved issues persist, including standardized treatment protocols, technical considerations for lesion traversal, and optimal stent selection criteria. This article comprehensively reviews the treatment principles, lesion passage techniques, treatment techniques, and recent advancements of central venous lesion.

Objective To investigate the clinical efficacy of the Lower Limb Detumescence Formula(derived from Taohong Siwu Decoction)in treating lower limb swelling in patients with qi stagnation and blood stasis syndrome after total knee arthroplasty(TKA),and to analyze the changes in traditional Chinese medicine(TCM)syndrome types before and after surgery.Methods A total of 60 patients diagnosed with knee osteoarthritis and lower limb swelling with qi stagnation and blood stasis syndrome after TKA,hospitalized in the Department of Artificial Joints and Knee Surgery,The First Affiliated Hospital of Guangzhou University of Chinese Medicine between November 2024 and January 2025,were selected.Based on patients' preferences and postoperative medication,the patients were divided into three groups:the Chinese medicine Group(25 cases),the Lishang Group(15 cases),and the Aescuven Forte Group(20 cases).Changes in limb circumference on the affected side were used to describe knee volume changes,and were measured preoperatively and on postoperative days 1,3,and 30.Results(1)Regarding lower limb swelling,the calf and thigh circumferences of the affected side in all three groups showed a trend of early exacerbation(on postoperative days 1 and 3)followed by later relief(on postoperative day 30).Peak swelling occurred on postoperative day 3,with statistically significant differences compared to preoperative measurements(P＜0.05).Subsequently,swelling gradually alleviated,and the calf and thigh circumferences of the affected side progressively decreased,the circum ferences on postoperative day 30 differed from those on postoperative days 1 and 3(P＜0.05).However,there were no statistically significant differences in improving calf and thigh circumferences among the three groups(P＞0.05).(2)In terms of adverse reactions,the Lishang Group and the Aescuven Forte Group each reported two adverse events,including postoperative wound bleeding,subcutaneous ecchymosis,pulmonary infection,and constipation.The Chinese medicine group reported no gastrointestinal adverse events,and patient treatment compliance was better than that in the Lishang Group and the Aescuven Forte Group.(3)Regarding TCM syndrome differentiation,each patient received four assessments at different time points(preoperatively and on postoperative days 1,3,and 30),resulting in 240 valid data entries.Among these,qi stagnation and blood stasis syndrome was the most common(170 cases,70.83％),followed by liver and kidney deficiency syndrome(64 cases,26.67％),and qi and blood deficiency syndrome was the least common(6 cases,2.50％).(4)Comparison of the relationship between different groups and syndrome types revealed no significant association between group distribution and syndrome type(P＞0.05).Further generalized estimating equation analysis showed that grouping had no significant effect on TCM syndrome differentiation(P＞0.05).(5)Comparison of the relationship between different time points and syndrome types revealed that preoperative syndromes predominantly consisted of liver and kidney deficiency(96.67％),while on postoperative days 1 and 3,all cases were classified as qi stagnation and blood stasis syndrome(100.00％).On postoperative day 30,qi stagnation and blood stasis syndrome remained the most common(80.00％).There was a significant association between time points and syndrome distribution(P＜0.05).Further generalized estimating equation analysis indicated that time points significantly influenced TCM syndrome differentiation(P＜0.001).Conclusion The Lower Limb Detumescence Formula demonstrates efficacy comparable to Lishang Xiaozhong Oral Liquid and Aescuven Forte Tablets in improving lower limb swelling in patients with qi stagnation and blood stasis syndrome after TKA.By promoting blood circulation,resolving stasis,strengthening the spleen,and eliminating accumulation,this formula reduces the incidence of adverse reactions such as postoperative wound bleeding,subcutaneous ecchymosis,and constipation.It provides a new pharmacological option for treating lower limb swelling after TKA,and is particularly suitable for patients with qi stagnation and blood stasis syndrome accompanied by spleen deficiency.

With the aggravation of population aging in our country,the prevalence of osteoporosis(OP)has surged dramatically.Currently,the diagnosis of OP primarily relies on bone mineral density(BMD),and the precise measurement of BMD is crucial in the diagnosis and treatment of spinal surgical diseases.In recent years,computed tomography(CT)has gained widespread attention in clinical diagnosis and treatment due to its unique advantages.Vertebral CT values not only enhance the diagnostic rate of OP but also effectively predict the occurrence of postoperative complications such as adjacent vertebral fractures,fusion device subsidence,and pedicle screw loosening.This article summarizes the research progress of vertebral CT value in the field of spine surgery,and discusses its feasibility in guiding spinal surgery and its correlation with postoperative complications of spine.Additionally,it elaborates on the progress of combining CT with artificial intelligence(AI)to assist in disease diagnosis and treatment,aiming to better promote the clinical application of vertebral CT values.

Objective To investigate the changes of brain deep gray matter nucleus volume and iron content in patients with type 2 dia-betes mellitus(T2DM)based on quantitative MR technology,and their correlation and mediating effect with cognitive impairment.Methods A total of 60 T2DM patients(T2DM group)and 61 healthy controls(HC)(HC group)were prospectively selected.The volume of brain deep gray matter nucleus of 3D-T1 sequence map was measured by artificial intelligence(AI)automatic segmentation technique,the corresponding region of interest(ROI)was manually drawn and quantitative susceptibility mapping(QSM)value was measured on QSM,the cognitive score,QSM value and volume of nucleus were compared by independent sample t test and rank sum test,and the correlation analysis of imaging indexes with differences between the two groups was made.The mediating effect between fasting blood glucose(FBG)and Montreal cognitive assessment(MoCA)score was analyzed.Results The MoCA and mini-mental state examination(MMSE)scores in the T2DM group were lower than those in the HC group(P＜0.05),the volumes of bilateral caudate nucleus,putamen,globus pallidus,thalamus,and right hippocampus in the T2DM group were lower than those in the HC group(P＜0.05),and the QSM values of left caudate nucleus,thalamus and bilateral globus pallidus in the T2DM group were higher than those in the HC group(P＜0.05).In the T2DM group,the volumes of bilateral thalamus and right hippocampus were positively correlated with MoCA score(left thalamus:r=0.326,P=0.012;right thalamus:r=0.373,P=0.004;right hippocampus:r=0.509,P＜0.001),and the QSM value of left thalamus was negatively correlated with MoCA score(r=-0.263,P=0.044).The mediating effect of right hippocampus volume and left thalamus QSM value was significant(P＜0.05),and the direct effect of FBG on cog-nitive score was significant(P＜0.05).Conclusion Brain deep gray matter nucleus atrophy and brain iron deposition are closely related to T2DM and cognitive impairment,and there is a mediating effect.Brain iron deposition will increase the risk of cognitive impairment in T2DM.
