Objective To compare the clinical characteristics of pneumococcal meningitis in different age groups, and to provide a basis for early diagnosis of pneumococcal meningitis. Methods Cerebrospinal fluid and/or serum samples were collected from 1742 suspected cases of meningitis in Baoji, Shaanxi Province from August 2013 to July 2019. Streptococcus pneumoniae was detected by isolation culture and real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction. Retrospective analysis of clinical manifestations, biochemical indicators and other information of laboratory confirmed cases was conducted by χ² test or Fisher's exact test. Results A total of 1742 samples of encephalitis or meningitis cases were detected, and 41 cases were confirmed as laboratory-confirmed Streptococcus pneumoniae infection. Among them, there were 12 cases (29.27%) in the infant group, 14 cases (34.15%) in the child group, and 15 cases (36.59%) in the adult group. The proportion of the adults with headache was significantly higher than that of the infants (χ²=11.408，P＜0.017). The proportion of the adults with consciousness disorder, elevated white blood cells and elevated neutrophils were significantly higher than those in the infant and the child groups（Fisher's exact test, P＜0.017；χ² =6.428，P＜0.017；χ² =10.898，P＜0.017；χ² =6.421，P＜0.017；χ² =9.758，P＜0.017；χ² =7.744，P＜0.017). The proportion of the infants with cerebrospinal fluid turbidity was significantly higher than that of the children (Fisher's exact test，P＜0.017). The proportion of the infants with decreased white blood cells and reduced glucose in cerebrospinal fluid was significantly higher than that of the children group and the adult group（Fisher's exact test, P＜0.001；Fisher's exact test, P＜0.001；Fisher's exact test, P＜0.017; Fisher's exact test, P＜0.017). Conclusion Most adult patients with pneumococcal meningitis have headache and consciousness disorders, with significantly increased proportion of white blood cells and neutrophils. Infant patients tend to have cloudy appearance of cerebrospinal fluid, leukopenia in blood, and decreased glucose in cerebrospinal fluid.

OBJECTIVE To evaluate the efficacy of Compound glutamine enteric-coated capsules in the treatment and prevention of radiotherapy- and chemotherapy-related intestinal dysfunction in patients with malignant tumors. METHODS PubMed， Embase， CNKI， and Wanfang data were searched to collect randomized controlled trial （RCT） and cohort studies comparing Compound glutamine enteric-coated capsules （experimental group） with or without other treatments versus other treatments or blank control （control group）. The search period was from the establishment of each database to November 19， 2025. After literature screening， data extraction， and quality assessment， a meta-analysis was performed using RevMan 5.4 software. RESULTS A total of 23 studies were included， involving 2 014 patients. Meta-analysis results showed that the effective rate in the experimental group was significantly higher than that in the control group， the overall incidence and moderate-to-severe incidence of radiotherapy- and chemotherapy-related intestinal dysfunction， quality of life scores， and interleukin-6 levels in the experimental group were significantly lower than those in the control group （ P ＜0.05）. However， no statistically significant differences were observed between the two groups in terms of Karnofsky Performance Status score improvement rate and tumor necrosis factor-α levels （ P ＞0.05）. The results of subgroup analysis based on different medications in the control group showed that， when used for treatment， regardless of whether patients in the control group received blank control or positive control， the efficacy in the experimental group was significantly higher than that in the control group （ P ＜0.05）. When used for prevention， compared with patients who received blank control in the control group， the overall incidence and the incidence of moderate-to-severe radiotherapy- and chemotherapy-related intestinal dysfunction in the experimental group were significantly reduced （ P ＜0.05）. No statistically significant difference was found in the overall incidence or incidences of moderate-to-severe radiotherapy- and chemotherapy-related intestinal dysfunction with positive control between the two groups （ P ＞0.05）. CONCLUSIONS Compound glutamine enteric-coated capsules can effectively treat and prevent radiotherapy- and chemotherapy-related intestinal dysfunction in patients with malignant tumors， improve patients’ quality of life， and alleviate inflammatory responses.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the effects of ω-3 polyunsaturated fatty acid （ω-3PUFA） combined with clomiphene on clinical efficacy， pregnancy and safety in patients with polycystic ovary syndrome （PCOS）. METHODS A retrospective analysis was performed on the clinical data of 112 PCOS patients who received treatment in Dept. of Obstetrics and Gynecology of Hunan Prevention and Treatment Institute for Occupational Diseases from January 2022 to December 2023. According to the different treatment regimens， the patients were divided into single-drug group （60 cases） and drug-combination group （52 cases）. Single-drug group was given clomiphene orally， and drug-combination group was given clomiphene+ω-3PUFA. Clinical efficacy， pregnancy status and the occurrence of adverse drug reaction （ADR） as well as ovarian function and oxidative stress indexes before and after treatment were compared between 2 groups. RESULTS The overall response rate （90.38% vs. 71.67%）， ovulation rate （84.62% vs. 61.67%）， and pregnancy rate （51.92% vs. 26.67%） were all markedly higher in drug combination group than single drug group （ P ＜0.05）. Before treatment， there was no statistical significance in ovarian function and oxidative stress indexes between 2 groups （ P ＞0.05）. Compared with before treatment， serum anti-Müllerian hormone levels， inhibin B concentr ations， and the number of cystic follicles in 2 groups were decreased significantly after 12 weeks of treatment （ P ＜0.05）. The endometrial thickness increased significantly （ P ＜0.05）， while the serum levels of malondialdehyde and advanced oxidation protein products decreased significantly （ P ＜0.05）； the activities of serum superoxide dismutase and glutathione peroxidase increased significantly （ P ＜0.05）； the improvement of drug combination group was significantly better than single drug group （ P ＜0.05）. The ovarian volumes in both groups were significantly smaller after treatment compared to before treatment （ P ＜0.05）， but there was no statistically significant difference between the two groups （ P ＞0.05）. There was no significant difference in the overall incidence of ADR between the two groups during the treatment （ P ＞0.05）. CONCLUSIONS The combination of ω-3PUFA and clomiphene has a definite therapeutic effect on PCOS， which can effectively reduce the body’s oxidative stress response， improve ovarian function， and increase ovulation and pregnancy rates.

OBJECTIVE To establish the UPLC fingerprint and the method for multi-component content determination in Jingangteng capsules， and to evaluate its quality by combining chemical pattern recognition analysis. METHODS An UPLC method was established. Separation was performed on a Zorbax SB-C 18 Rapid Resolution HD column， with acetonitrile-0.1% formic acid as the mobile phase for gradient elution.Using the Similarity Evaluation System for Chromatographic Fingerprints of Traditional Chinese Medicines （2012 edition）， UPLC fi ngerprints were established for 10 batches of Jingangteng capsules， and similarity was evaluated. SPSS 22.0 and SIMCA 14.1 software were used to perform hierarchial-cluster analysis and orthogonal partial least squares discriminant analysis （OPLS-DA）， respectively. The same UPLC method was employed to determine the contents of chlorogenic acid， 3，5-dihydroxy-2-methylbenzoic acid-3- O -glucoside （M1）， caffeic acid， astilbin， oxyresveratrol， quercitrin and resveratrol in the 10 batches of samples. RESULTS A total of 17 common peaks were identified in UPLC fingerprints of the 10 batches of samples， of which 7 were identified as chlorogenic acid， M1， caffeic acid， astilbin， oxyresveratrol， quercitrin， and resveratrol. The similarities of 10 batches of samples ranged from 0.820 to 0.985. The results of hierarchial-cluster analysis showed that 10 batches of samples were grouped into four categories： S1-S4 formed one group， S5 and S6 formed another， S7， S8 and S10 formed a third， and S9 formed a fourth， consistent with the OPLS-DA results； the variable importance projection values for peaks 7， 10， 2， 16 （resveratrol）， 13 （oxyresveratrol）， 11， 6 （caffeic acid）， 5 （M1） and 15 （quercitrin） were ＞1. Quantitative analysis results showed that the contents of chlorogenic acid， M1， caffeic acid， astilbin， oxyresveratrol， quercitrin， and resveratrol were 1.650 8-4.213 7， 0.636 2-2.161 7， 0.031 0-0.086 5， 0.239 1-1.069 3， 0.211 9-1.104 0， 0.488 8-2.399 2， and 0.164 0-0.699 8 mg/g， respectively. CONCLUSIONS UPLC fingerprint and content determination methods established in this study are simple to operate， accurate， reliable and reproducible； when combined with chemical pattern recognition analysis， they can be used to evaluate the quality of Jingangteng capsules. Nine components， such as resveratrol， oxyresveratrol， caffeic acid， M1 and quercitrin， may serve as markers of quality variation.

ObjectiveTo observe the clinical effectiveness of horticultural therapy involving the planting of Chinese medicinal herbs （mint and lily potted plants） combined with intradermal needling therapy for generalized anxiety disorder （GAD） of liver depression transforming into fire syndrome under transcranial magnetic stimulation and basic psychological therapy， and to explore the possible mechanisms of action. MethodsA total of 180 patients with GAD of liver depression transforming into fire syndrome were randomly divided into three groups， horticultural therapy group， intradermal needling group， and horticultural therapy+intradermal needling group， with 60 patients in each. All groups received basic treatment including basic psychological therapy and transcranial magnetic stimulation. The horticultural therapy group received horticultural therapy in addition to the basic treatment； the intradermal needling group received intradermal needling therapy once a week for 8 weeks in addition to the basic treatment； the horticultural therapy+intradermal needling group received both horticultural therapy and intradermal needling therapy， following the same procedures and duration. Hamilton Anxiety Rating Scale （HAMA）， Self-Rating Anxiety Scale （SAS）， and Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index （PSQI） scores were assessed at baseline and after 2， 4， 6， and 8 weeks of treatment. Serum levels of adrenocorticotropic hormone （ACTH） and corticosterone （CORT） were measured before treatment and after 8 weeks of treatment. Motor-evoked potential （MEP） baseline levels were recorded before treatment， and MEP amplitude ratios were compared after 1 week and 8 weeks of treatment. Clinical effectiveness and safety were evaluated after 8 weeks of treatment. Pearson correlation analysis was used to examine the relationships between serum ACTH and CORT levels， MEP amplitude， and anxiety. ResultsIn the horticultural therapy group and intradermal needling group， HAMA， SAS and PSQI scores after 4， 6， and 8 weeks treatment were lower than baseline scores （P＜0.05）. In the horticultural therapy+intradermal needling group， these scores showed a significant decline starting after 2 weeks treatment and continuing through 8 weeks after treatment （P＜0.05）. The HAMA， SAS， and PSQI scores in the horticultural therapy+intradermal needling group were significantly lower than those in the other two groups after 2， 4， 6， and 8 weeks treatment （P＜0.05）. After 8 weeks of treatment， serum CORT and ACTH levels in the horticultural therapy+intradermal needling group were significantly lower than baseline levels （P＜0.05） and were also lower than those in the horticultural therapy group and intradermal needling group at the same time point （P＜0.01）. When comparing the level after 8 weeks treatment to that after 1 week treatment， under PAS10 stimulation， the MEP amplitude ratio in the intradermal needling group decreased at 30 minutes， while in the horticultural therapy+intradermal needling group， the MEP amplitude ratio decreased at all time points （P＜0.05 or P＜0.001）； under PAS25 stimulation， the MEP amplitude ratio in the horticultural therapy group increased at 20 minutes， and in the intradermal needle group at 10 minutes （P＜0.05）. In the horticultural therapy+intradermal needling group， the MEP amplitude ratio increased significantly at all time points after treatment （P＜0.001）. The cure rate in the horticultural therapy+intradermal needling group （74.14%， 43/58） was significantly higher than that in the horticultural therapy group （30.00%， 18/60） and the intradermal needling group （48.28%， 28/58， P＜0.05）. Correlation analysis revealed that serum ACTH and CORT levels were positively correlated with HAMA scores （r = 0.488， P＜0.01； r = 0.428， P＜0.01）. Following PAS10 intervention， the MEP amplitude ratio was positively correlated with HAMA scores （r = 0.458， P＜0.01）， whereas after PAS25 intervention， the MEP amplitude ratio was negatively correlated with HAMA scores （r = -0.562， P＜0.01）. ConclusionHorticultural therapy combined with intradermal needling treatment， under transcranial magnetic stimulation and basic psychological therapy， demonstrates significant clinical effectiveness in patients with GAD of liver depression transforming into fire syndrome. Its mechanism of action may be related to the regulation of hyperactivation of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal （HPA） axis and the reduction of cortical excitability.

Objective To understand the current situation and influencing factors of work-related musculoskeletal disorders (WMSDs) in medical staff in Beijing City. Methods A total of 2 687 medical staff were selected as the research subjects using the multi-stage sampling method. The current situation of WMSDs and occupational stress, anxiety symptoms, depressive symptoms, and insomnia symptoms were investigated using the Musculoskeletal Disorders Questionnaire, the Core Occupational Stress Scale, the Generalized Anxiety Disorder Scale, the Patient Health Questionnaire Depression Scale, and the Self-Sleep Management Questionnaire. The Max-Min Hill-Climbing algorithm was used to construct a Bayesian network model to analyze the influencing factors and internal relationships of WMSDs and to conduct reasoning and prediction of the model. Results The prevalence of WMSDs among the research subjects was 88.9%. Binary logistic regression analysis was used to identify age, educational level, personal monthly income, anxiety symptoms, depressive symptoms, insomnia symptoms, prolonged forward-head desk work, and prolonged static posture work to construct the Bayesian network model. The model consisted of nine nodes and eleven directed edges. Prolonged static posture work, prolonged forward-head desk work, and anxiety symptoms were directly related to WMSDs. Age and educational level were indirectly related to WMSDs through their influence on prolonged forward-head desk work. Depression symptoms were indirectly associated with WMSDs through their influence on anxiety symptoms. The model's prediction accuracy was 90.5%. Conclusion The prevalence of WMSDs among medical staff in Beijing City is relatively high. Prolonged static posture work, prolonged forward-head desk work, and anxiety symptoms may directly increase the risk of developing WMSDs.

Discoidin domain receptor 1(DDR1)is overexpressed in various tumors,such as triple-negative breast cancer(TNBC),and is rarely expressed in normal tissues.These characteristics make DDR1 a preferable target candidate for the construction of an antibody-drug conjugate(ADC)for targeted therapy.Here,we investigated the preparation and preclinical efficacy of DDR1-DX8951,an ADC that includes an anti-DDR1 monoclonal antibody conjugated to DX8951 by a cleavable Gly-Gly-Phe-Gly(GGFG)linker.The anti-DDR1 monoclonal antibody was coupled to DX8951(i.e.,DDR1-DX8951),producing the targeted ther-apy ADC.The antitumor activities of DDR1-DX8951 monotherapy or DDR1-DX8951 plus pembrolizumab were assessed in TNBC mouse models.DDR1-DX8951 can specifically target DDR1,be quickly internal-ized by TNBC cells,and reduce the viability of TNBC cells in vitro.The potent antitumor activity of DDR1-DX8951 was revealed in TNBC xenograft models.Importantly,our investigation demonstrated that DDR1-DX8951 plus pembrolizumab not only revealed the inhibitory efficacy on tumor growth and metastasis but also played an important role in improving the immunosuppressive tumor microenvi-ronment(TME)of TNBC.Taken together,this investigation provides justification for large-sample studies to further assess the safety and efficacy of DDR1-DX8951 plus pembrolizumab for TNBC clinical trials.

Objective To develop the Perceived Spouse Support Scale for pregnant women in the second and third trimester of pregnancy and test its reliability and validity,so as to provide an effective tool for assessing the perceived spouse support level of pregnant women.Methods With social support theory as the theoretical framework,the questionnaire item pool was initially constructed through literature review and semi-structured interview,and the initial questionnaire was formed through expert correspondence and cognitive interview.From April to November 2023,570 pregnant women in the second and third trimester of pregnancy were selected by random sampling method for investigation,item analysis and reliability and validity test of the scale.Results Eventually 558 pregnant women completed the suivey.The Perceived Spouse Support Scale for pregnant women in the second and third trimesters contained 22 items,including instrumental support,informational support and emotional support.The Cronbach's α coefficient of the scale was 0.867;the split-half reliability was 0.793;the retest reliability was 0.965;the content validity index was 0.980.The cumulative variance contribution rate of the 3 common factors was 54.138％.Confirmatory factor analysis suggested that the model fit well.Conclusion The Perceived Spouse Support Scale has good reliability and validity,and it can be used as an evaluation tool for spouse support level of pregnant women.

Objective To evaluate and further optimize the quality control measures in the field of queue by comparing and analyzing the quality of physical data before and after optimization.Methods 17 420 physical data collected in 2020 and 12 762 physical data collected in 2021 were used in the natural population cohort study of West China Hospital of Sichuan University.The data in 2020(before optimization)and 2021(after optimization)were evaluated and compared from multiple dimensions such as normalization,completeness,logic,accuracy and consistency.Results Compared to 2020,data quality in 2021 showed a significant improvement.The proportion of abnormal data decreased significantly from 1978(11.35%)to 276(2.16%),and the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05).Specifically,the number of abnormal blood pressure data decreased from 143(0.82%)to 67(0.52%),and waist circumference data decreased significantly from 1777(10.20%)to 113(0.89%).In terms of data integrity and logical evaluation,the performance in 2021 was also generally better than that in 2020,and the difference was also statistically significant(P<0.05).Conclusion It is very important to optimize and adjust the collection process of physical data and realize integrated information system management for improving data quality.
