ObjectiveThis paper aims to observe the syndrome improvement and negative antigen conversion rate of Qingxuan Daozhi formula in the treatment of influenza in children (heat accumulation in the lung and stomach syndrome). MethodsThrough a multi-center randomized controlled methodology design,confirmed influenza cases were collected from October 2022 to April 2023 in the pediatrics department of eight hospitals,such as Dongfang Hospital of Beijing University of Chinese Medicine. A total of 180 children with influenza and heat accumulation in the lung and stomach syndrome conforming to the standard were recruited through the clinic. The sick children meeting the inclusion criteria were randomly divided into groups by a block-randomized method. The children in the experimental group were treated with Qingxuan Daozhi formula for five days,and those in the control group were treated with Oseltamivir Phosphate Granules for five days. The primary efficacy indicator was the negative conversion rate of influenza antigen detection. Secondary efficacy indicators were the Canadian acute respiratory illness and flu scale (CARIFS) and the incidence of complications,severe cases, and critical cases. Follow-up observation was conducted on the day of enrollment,48 hours after medication,72 hours after medication, and (6+1) d after medication. ResultsOne hundred and eighty participants were randomly assigned to the experimental group (90 cases) or the control group (90 cases). All participants were followed up during the study. Comparison of influenza antigen detection results in the primary efficacy indicators showed that the average time of negative influenza antigen conversion in the experimental group was (5.29±1.25) d,and that in the control group was (5.40±1.68) d,without a statistically significant difference. After five days of intervention,52 cases in the experimental group and 51 cases in the control group converted to negative,without a statistically significant difference. CARIFS score results in the secondary efficacy indicators showed that during 72 hours after intervention,there were statistically significant differences between the experimental group and the control group in three dimensions, including headache,muscle soreness, and the need for extra care (P<0.05). On the (6+1) days after the intervention,the differences in both the experimental group and the control group were statistically significant in 10 dimensions, including sore throat,bad sleep,uncomfortable feeling,poor spirit and fatigue,crying more than usual,the need for extra care,symptom,function,influence on parents,and total score (P<0.05). The comparison results within the group in the dimensional scores of symptom, function, and influence on parents,as well as the CARIFS total score showed that with the delay of follow-up time,scores of both groups decreased significantly,with a statistically significant difference (P<0.01). Inter-group comparison results showed that the mean score of the experimental group was higher than that of the control group at the time of enrollment. With the progress of intervention,the score of the experimental group was significantly decreased compared with that of the control group. At the end of follow-up,the mean score of the experimental group was lower than that of the control group,with no statistically significant difference. In terms of the incidence of complications,severe cases, and critical cases, there were no complications,severe cases, and critical cases in the two groups,without a statistically significant difference. ConclusionThe symptom improvement effect and negative antigen conversion rate of Qingxuan Daozhi formula in the treatment of influenza in children (heat accumulation in the lung and stomach syndrome) are not inferior to Oseltamivir Phosphate granules, and children's acceptance is better. It can be more widely used in clinical treatment of influenza in children (heat accumulation in the lung and stomach syndrome).

Objective To evaluate the efficacy and safety of modified pelvic floor reconstruction in non-nerve-sparing robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (NNS RARP) for improving postoperative urinary control. Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of 79 prostate cancer patients who underwent NNS RARP at Tangdu Hospital during Jan.2020 and Dec.2023, including 29 in the reconstruction group, and 50 in the non-reconstruction group. The baseline characteristics including age, body mass index, prostate-specific antigen (PSA) level, clinical stage, prostate volume, and biopsy Gleason score, and perioperative indexes including operation time, intraoperative blood loss, catheter indwelling time, complication rate, and positive rate of surgical margins were compared between the two groups. Additionally, urinary continence function was assessed before operation and 1,3,6, and 12 months after operation using the international consultation on incontinence questionnaire-short form (ICIQ-SF) and the incontinence quality of life questionnaire score (I-QoL). Results No statistically significant differences were observed in the baseline characteristics between the two groups (P>0.05). The operation time was significantly longer in the reconstruction group than in the non-reconstruction group [ (110.24±15.08) min vs. (101.80±9.89) min, P=0.010]. There were no significant differences in intraoperative blood loss, catheter indwelling time, complication rate, and positive rate of surgical margins between the two groups (P>0.05). The reconstruction group demonstrated significantly lower ICIQ-SF scores at 1 month [ (10.17±2.16) vs. (11.56±1.66), P=0.002],3 months [ (7.62±1.29) vs. (9.52±1.80), P<0.001], and 6 months postoperatively [ (4.93±1.22) vs. (6.18± 1.67), P=0.001]compared to the non-reconstruction group (adjusted P<0.0125). Conversely, the I-QoL scores were significantly higher in the reconstruction group at 1 month [ (73.32±10.30) vs. (63.88±9.55), P<0.001]and 3 months postoperatively [ (78.91±4.82) vs. (75.66±5.17), P=0.007] (adjusted P<0.0125). However, no significant differences were found in ICIQ-SF or I-QoL scores between the two groups preoperatively and 12 months postoperatively (adjusted P>0.0125). Conclusion The application of modified pelvic floor reconstruction technique in NNS RARP is safe and feasible. Although it slightly prolongs the operation time, it does not increase surgical risks; instead, it effectively promotes early recovery of postoperative urinary continence, thereby significantly enhancing patients'quality of life.

Renal tumor scoring systems can describe the anatomical characteristics of renal tumors. It is an important standard to evaluate the surgical complexity and to evaluate the surgical complexity and feasibility of partial nephrectomy. Scholars at home and abroad have established various scoring systems based on different anatomical parameters,such as R.E.N.A.L.,PADUA,C-Index,which are used to guide the clinical selection of surgical modalities,and predict perioperative complications and prognosis. In this paper,various scoring systems are grouped into three major categories according to their functions:prediction of surgical complexity,prediction of complications,and prediction of prognosis. The contents,characteristics and clinical application value of various renal tumor scoring systems are introduced in detail to guide urologists,enhance their surgical decision-making ability,and improve the clinical outcomes.

ObjectiveTo evaluate the efficacy and safety of Xiaoji Hufei Formula in protecting children with close contact exposure to influenza, and to provide reference and evidence-based support for better clinical prevention and treatment of influenza in children. MethodsA multicenter, prospective, non-randomized, parallel, controlled trial was conducted from October 2021 to May 2022 in five hospitals, including Dongfang Hospital of Beijing University of Chinese Medicine. Confirmed influenza cases and influenza-like illness (ILI) cases were collected, and eligible children with close contact exposure to these cases were recruited in the outpatient clinics. According to whether the enrolled close contacts were willing to take Xiaoji Hufei formula for influenza prevention, they were assigned to the observation group (108 cases) or the control group (108 cases). Follow-up visits were conducted on days 7 and 14 after enrollment. The primary outcomes were the incidence of ILI and the rate of laboratory-confirmed influenza. Secondary outcomes included traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) symptom score scale for influenza, influenza-related emergency (outpatient) visit rate, influenza hospitalization rate, and time to onset after exposure to influenza cases. ResultsA total of 216 participants were enrolled, with 108 in the observation group and 108 in the control group. Primary outcomes: (1) Incidence of ILI: The incidence was 12.0% (13/108) in the observation group and 23.1% (25/108) in the control group, with the observation group showing a significantly lower incidence (χ2=4.6, P<0.05). (2) Influenza confirmation rate: 3.7% (4/108) in the observation group and 4.6% (5/108) in the control group, with no statistically significant difference. Secondary outcomes: (1) TCM symptom score scale: after onset, nasal congestion and runny nose scores differed significantly between the two groups (P<0.05), while other symptoms such as fever, sore throat, and cough showed no significant differences. (2) Influenza-related emergency (outpatient) visit rate: 84.6% (11 cases) in the observation group and 96.0% (24 cases) in the control group, with no significant difference. (3) Time to onset after exposure: The median onset time after exposure to index patients was 7 days in the observation group and 4 days in the control group, with a statistically significant difference (P<0.05). ConclusionIn previously healthy children exposed to infectious influenza cases under unprotected conditions, Xiaoji Hufei formula prophylaxis significantly reduced the incidence of ILI. Xiaoji Hufei Formula can be recommended as a specific preventive prescription for influenza in children.

Objective:This study was to explore the behavioral and electroencephalographic characteristics of impaired cognitive flexibility in patients with obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) with comorbid obsessive-compulsive personality disorder(OCPD).Methods:A cross-sectional study was designed to collect data prospectively from OCD patients who visited the psychology departments at two top-tier hospitals in Changsha between September 2019 and December 2021. The study included 31 patients with OCD+OCPD(18 males, 13 females; aged 15-46 (22.8±8.4) years) and 39 patients with OCD only(25 males, 14 females; aged 15-34 (21.6±4.2) years). Additionally, 32 age-matched healthy controls(HC: 18 males, 14 females; aged 18-25 (20.8±1.7) years). All participants completed the Task-Switching paradigm while behaioral and event-related potentials(ERPs) were recorded simultaneously. Repeated measures analysis of variance was used to compare the group differences in behavioral and ERP data(electrode sites: FZ, FCZ, CZ, PZ; ERP components: amplitude and latency of P2, N2, and P3).Results:The reaction times in both the comorbid and OCD groups were significantly longer than those in the healthy control group ((1 182±287) ms and (1 119±194) ms vs. (886±95) ms; F=18.48, both P<0.001). Accuracy rates in the comorbid and OCD groups were also significantly lower than in the healthy control group ((77±14)% and (77±13)% vs. (84±7)%; F=4.00, both P<0.05). In the task-switching condition, the N2 latency at the CZ electrode was significantly shorter in the comorbid and OCD groups compared to the healthy control group ((290±22) ms and (291±29) ms vs. (308±27) ms; F=3.81, both P<0.05). Furthermore, at the FZ and FCZ electrodes, the N2 latency in the comorbid group was significantly shorter in the switching task compared to the repetition task. Conclusion:OCD patients with comorbid OCPD show more severe cognitive flexibility impairments and display abnormal electrophysiological patterns.

BACKGROUND:Intertrochanteric femoral fractures are the main type of fragility fracture in the elderly,and proximal femoral nail antirotation is the preferred surgical option,but the factors associated with postoperative internal fixation failure are controversial.OBJECTIVE:A new"three-column"classification of intertrochanteric femoral fractures was proposed by evaluating patients'imaging data preoperatively and analyzing its interaction with postoperative internal fixation failure.A risk prediction model was developed and validated by using numerical algorithms,which facilitates clinicians to identify and intervene in high-risk patients preoperatively.METHODS:Patients with intertrochanteric femur fractures in Sanshui Branch of Foshan Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine between June 2012 and June 2022 were selected.The patients were divided into the internal fixation failure group and the internal fixation maintenance group according to whether they had internal fixation failure after surgery.According to the preoperative radiographs,the proximal femur was divided into three columns:the medial column,the lateral column,and the middle column.Each column had different subgroups.The relationship between the morphological characteristics of the"three columns"and the failure of proximal femoral nail antirotation internal fixation was analyzed,and the independent risk factors for internal fixation failure were screened out by single and then multifactorial logistic regression analyses.A risk prediction model was constructed according to the independent risk factors using R language software.The Bootstrap method was used to resample 1 000 times.The area under the curve,calibration curve,and clinical decision curve were used to evaluate the differentiation,calibration ability,and clinical application value of the model.The Youden index was used to determine the optimal risk cut-off value of the prediction model,according to which the patients were divided into high and low risk groups.The stability and extensibility of the model were evaluated according to the accuracy of its risk prediction ability.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)The four independent risk factors for postoperative internal fixation failure after surgery were predicted using the"three-column"typing system:medial column(comminuted fracture of the lesser trochanter and femoral talar)[odds ratio=5.385,95%CI(1.961,14.782),P=0.001],medial column(chimney type)[odds ratio=2.893,95%CI(1.167,7.173),P=0.022],lateral column(lateral wall thickness<20.5 mm)[odds ratio=2.804,95%CI(1.078,7.297),P=0.035]and lateral column(lateral wall fracture)[odds ratio=4.278,95%CI(1.670,10.959),P=0.012].(2)The constructed risk prediction model showed good discrimination and accuracy[area under the receiver operating characteristic curve=0.852,95%CI(0.837,0.922)].The calibration curve showed good agreement between the model-predicted risk and the actual risk of occurrence.(3)The clinical decision curve suggested that the model had good clinical applicability when the risk threshold probability was in the range of 0.2-0.82.The risk probability of 28%was the optimal threshold for risk stratification of the model,and the predictive performance of the model was better in patients with different risk groups.(4)The"three-column"typing system constructs a predictive model to calculate the risk probability of postoperative internal fixation failure in patients with intertrochanteric femoral fractures.This method is accurate,simple,and easy to apply clinically,and can be used as a digital tool to guide personalized clinical treatment.

Objective:To construct a risk assessment system for measles transmission in Henan Province and scientifically evaluate the risk levels of measles transmission in each city in Henan Province.Methods:The modified Delphi method was used to conduct two rounds of expert consultations to construct a risk assessment system for measles transmission. Data from all 191 cities, counties and districts in Henan Province were collected. The internal consistency (Cronbach′s α), content validity (content validity index, CVI) and structural validity (factor analysis) of the indicator system were evaluated to optimize the assessment framework. The indicator assignment method was adopted, and the comprehensive risk scores were obtained by adding the scores according to different weights. Results:Both rounds of consultation witnessed a 100% participation rate among all experts. The authority coefficients of experts in the two rounds were 0.920 and 0.925, and concordance coefficients were 0.201 ( χ 2=161.11, P<0.001) and 0.210 ( χ 2=163.80, P<0.001). The constructed assessment system comprised four dimensions—population immunity levels, surveillance quality, importation risk, and technical reserve of emergency response capacities—with a total of 30 indicators. Reliability analysis of the assessment system showed an overall Cronbach′s α of 0.741. Validity analysis revealed that all content validity indices reached 1.000, with principal factors cumulatively accounting for 67.625% of the variance, and all factor loadings exceeded 0.400. The measles transmission risk assessment in Henan Province using this assessment system identified Zhengzhou (92), Xinxiang (91), Xinyang (89), and Pingdingshan (73) as high-risk regions. Conclusion:The risk assessment system developed in this study demonstrates good reliability and validity, effectively reflecting measles transmission risks across Henan Province. The findings highlight the need to strengthen surveillance and control measures in high-risk areas, particularly in Zhengzhou.

In February 2025, a local cluster outbreak caused by the D8 genotype Measles virus (MV) was first discovered in Henan Province. Epidemiological investigations and laboratory testing were conducted, including the collection of serum and throat swabs for MV IgM antibody and nucleic acid detection, virus isolation and genetic homology analysis. Measures such as close contact tracing, vaccination rate assessment and supplementary immunization activities were implemented, successfully preventing broader community transmission. A total of three cases were reported during the outbreak, including one imported-related adolescent and two secondary local adult cases. All cases presented with typical symptoms such as fever and rash. Both adult cases were complicated by pneumonia, with one case developing into severe pneumonia. MV genotyping showed that the two secondary cases were both the D8 genotype, with the viral sequences being completely homologous to the Kazakhstan strain. Among the close contacts, 98.2% were adults, and 142 individuals received emergency vaccination.

Objective To investigate risk factors for short-term residual symptoms after resolution of benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV) through logistic regression analysis. Methods A total of 110 patients with BPPV in our hospital from July 2020 to January 2023 were enrolled. The patients were grouped according to whether they were cured or had residual symptoms at 8 weeks after repositioning maneuvers. A logistic regression analysis was used to analyze the risk factors for short-term residual symptoms after treatment. Results Forty-nine of the 110 patients had short-term residual symptoms. The univariable logistic regression analyses showed that age, the duration of vertigo before treatment, recurrence, medical history (hypertension, diabetes, and ischemic cerebrovascular disease), anxiety, depression, sleep quality, and vestibular evoked myogenic potential were risk factors for short-term residual symptoms in patients with BPPV. The multivariable logistic regression analysis revealed that age (OR=0.942,95%CI 0.913-0.972,P<0.001), the duration of vertigo before treatment(OR=0.333,95%CI 1.015~1.019,P=0.002),recurrence(OR=0.777,95%CI 0.726-0.832,P<0.001), a history of hypertension(OR=0.682,95%CI 0.624-0.745,P<0.001), a history of diabetes(OR=0.854,95%CI 0.791-0.922,P<0.001),a history of ischemic cerebrovascular disease(OR=0.876,95%CI 0.806-0.953,P=0.002), anxiety(OR=1.158,95%CI 1.046-1.283,P=0.005),depression(OR=1.178,95%CI 1.033-1.344,P=0.014),sleep quality(OR=1.164,95%CI 1.009-1.343,P=0.037), and vestibular evoked myogenic potential(OR=1.196,95%CI 1.068-1.340,P=0.002) were independent risk factors for short-term residual symptoms in patients with BPPV. Conclusion Patients with BPPV are more likely to have short-term residual symptoms if they have a history of hypertension, diabetes, or cerebrovascular diseases, advanced age, a long duration of vertigo before treatment, and the presence of emotional disorders (anxiety, depression, sleep deficiency, vestibular evoked myogenic potential abnormalities).
