ObjectiveTo investigate the effect and mechanism of simvastatin pretreatment on kidney ischemia reperfusion injury （IRI） in mice. MethodsFifteen male C57BL/6 mice aged 6-8 weeks were divided into three groups： Sham operation group （Sham group）， kidney IRI group （IR group）， and simvastatin pretreatment+kidney IRI group （SIM group）. Hematoxylin-eosin （HE） staining of kidney tissue and detection of serum creatinine （SCr） and lactate dehydrogenase （LDH） were used to evaluate kidney injury. The levels of superoxide dismutase （SOD）， reduced glutathione （GSH）， malondialdehyde （MDA） and reactive oxygen species （ROS） were detected to evaluate oxidative stress. The contents of ferrous iron （Fe²⁺） and ferric iron （Fe³⁺） in kidney tissue were detected， and the morphological changes of mitochondria were observed by transmission electron microscope. The relative expression levels of Kruppel-like factor 2 （KLF2）， glutathione peroxidase 4 （GPX4）， solute carrier family 7 member 11 （SLC7A11）， and acyl-coa synthetase long chain family member 4 （ACSL4） protein in kidney tissue were detected. ResultsCompared with the IR group， the SIM group had significantly reduced renal tubular injury and decreased contents of Scr and LDH in serum （P < 0.001）. It also showed increased expression of SOD and GSH and decreased expression of MDA and ROS （P < 0.01）. Simvastatin pretreatment reduced the contents of Fe²⁺ and Fe³⁺ in the tissues （P < 0.01） and alleviated mitochondrial damage. It also promoted the expression of KLF2 （P < 0.01）， up-regulated the expression of ferroptosis-related protective proteins GPX4 and SLC7A11， and down-regulated the expression of ferroptosis-related damage protein ACSL4 （P < 0.05）. ConclusionSimvastatin pretreatment may inhibit kidney ferroptosis by promoting the expression of KLF2 to alleviate kidney IRI.

Objective: To investigate the association between different digital media usage types and depressive symptoms among junior and senior high school students, so as to provide a scientific reference for making precise mental health prevention and intervention strategies for adolescents. Methods: In October 2024, a convenience cluster sample of 3 225 students was collected from 2 junior high schools and 2 senior high schools in Shenyang City. Participants were investigated for its daily usage duration of various digital media types and depressive symptoms. Cochran-Armitage trend test was used to examine trend in depressive symptom detection rates across digital media usage types. Multivariate Logistic regression model was employed to assess associations, with stratified analyses by gender and educational stage. Results: The daily usage durations for educational/learning, social/chatting, gaming, and video/music/novel digital media were 30.0(12.1, 60.0), 22.9(9.3, 50.0), 17.1(0.0, 50.0), and 22.9(8.6, 55.7) minutes for junior and senior high school students, respectively. The detection rate of depressive symptoms was 46.1%. Among them, the detection rate of depressive symptoms of girls (49.8%) was higher than that of boys (42.3%), and that of senior high school students (53.2%) was higher than that of junior high school students (39.7%), and the differences were statistically significant ( χ 2= 18.35, 59.02, both P <0.01). Cochran-Armitage trend test revealed significant upward trends in depressive symptom detection rates with increasing usage of non educational digital media (social/chatting: Z =4.77; gaming: Z =3.24; video/music/novel: Z =7.30, all P <0.01). Logistic regression analysis showed that, compared to usage <1 h/d, using social/chatting digital media for 1-<2 h/d ( OR =1.66), 2-<3 h/d ( OR =1.80), and ≥3 h/d ( OR =2.68), gaming for 1-<2 h/d ( OR =1.48), 2-<3 h/d ( OR =1.90), and ≥3 h/d ( OR =2.93), and video/music/novel for 1-<2 h/d ( OR =1.76), 2-<3 h/d ( OR =2.00), and ≥3 h/d ( OR = 3.48) were all significantly associated with increased risks of depressive symptoms (all P <0.01). Conclusions Excessive use of non-educational digital media is a risk factor for depressive symptoms in adolescents. Regulating usage duration is beneficial for promoting adolescent mental health.

Objective: To evaluate the efficacy and safety of ruxolitinib combined with low-dose hormone for patients with acute graft-versus-host disease (aGVHD) after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT). Methods: Thirty patients with aGVHD after allo-HSCT admitted to the Department of Hematology of the General Hospital of Western Theater Command from November 2021 to November 2024 were retrospectively analyzed. All patients were treated with low-dose hormone (methylprednisolone 0.3-1 mg kg -d ) combined with ruxolitinib 5-10 mg d . The efficacy and adverse reactions were observed during the follow-up period to analyze the survival outcomes of the patients. Results: A total of 30 patients with aGVHD after allo-HSCT were included in this study, consisting of 15 (50%) males and 15 (50%) females with a median age of 34 year-old (ranging from 14 to 62). Classification by disease type: there were 18 cases of acute myeloid leukemia, 4 cases of acute lymphoblastic leukemia, 4 cases of aplastic anemia, and 4 cases of myelodysplastic syndrome. Classification by aGVHD severity: there were 27 cases (90%) of Ⅱ-Ⅳ degree aGVHD and 11 cases (36.7%) of Ⅲ-Ⅳ degree aGVHD. Ruxolitinib in combination with low-dose glucocorticoid treatment yield responses in 28 (93.3%) patients, of which 27 (90%) achieved complete remission (CR), while 1 (3.3%) showed partial remission (PR). One patient (3.3%) had no response (NR), and 1 patient (3.3%) exhibited progressed disease (PD). Overall survival (OS) at 1 year of transplantation was 73.9% (95%CI 49.5% to 87.7%), progression-free survival (PFS) was 93.3% (95%CI 75.9% to 98.3%), non-relapse mortality (NRM) was 20.6% (95%CI 7.9% to 47.4%), and median survival time was 27.6 months. Conclusion: Ruxolitinib combined with low-dose hormones is safe and effective in the treatment of aGVHD after allo-HSCT.

This paper summarizes Professor LIU Shangyi's clinical experience in treating acute mastitis based on the "membrane collaterals" theory. It is considered that constraint and stagnation of the membrane collaterrals is the primary pathogenic factor， with damp， heat， phlegm， and stasis being the secondary manifestations. If untreated， the condition can progress to heat toxin injuring the membrane. In treatment， the emphasis is diffusing and unblocking membrane collaterals， unblocking breast and relieving constraint. The clinical course of the disease can be divided into three stages including the early stage with mild constraint heat， the middle stage with escalating toxic heat， and the later stage with a decline of pathogens but deficiency of healthy qi. In correspondence， self-made Tongru Formula （通乳方） for diffusing membrane and venting constraint， self-made Toumo Jiedu Formula （透膜解毒方） for unblocking membrane and relieving toxin， and Tuoli Xiaodu Powder （托里消毒散） with modifications for restoring membrane and rectifying healthy qi should be used， respectively.

OBJECTIVE To provide references for optimizing the review and approval system of clinically urgent overseas-marketed drugs in China. METHODS The characteristics of the review and approval system for clinically urgent overseas-marketed drugs were analyzed. A comparative research method was employed to examine differences between China and Australia， Switzerland， and Canada in three dimensions： qualification determination for clinical urgency （i.e.， access qualification）， review methods， and approval modalities. RESULTS & CONCLUSIONS In China’s current system， the legal nature of communication and consultation meetings is ambiguous， as the qualification determination function is embedded within technical consultation procedures without remedy channels. The pre-marketing clinical trial exemption for drugs is disconnected from the post-marketing confirmation obligation， and insufficient access to complete overseas review information weakens risk control effectiveness. A differentiated triage mechanism based on the timing of global approval has not been established， providing insufficient incentives for global simultaneous research and development. International typical regulatory models set access qualification， review methods， and approval modalities as independent modules， forming a quid pro quo relationship by relaxing pre-marketing access conditions and establishing post-marketing conditional approval mechanisms. It is recommended to formulate technical guidelines for the determination of clinically urgent drugs to clarify objective discretionary benchmarks， clarify the legal nature of communication and consultation meetings and allocate remedy channels， mandatorily include clinical trial-exempted varieties in the conditional approval procedure and establish a negative signal linkage mechanism， and implement differentiated triage based on approval timing， so as to improve China’s review and approval system.

In the context of burgeoning economic trade, there has been a remarkable increase in the number of ships travelling between domestic and international ports. Inbound and outbound cargo ships, cruise liners, ferries, and other types of vessels have emerged as critical vehicles for the dispersal of vector organisms and the spread of infectious disease agents. Public health concerns associated with these vessels represent a significant threat to human welfare. In this paper, we comprehensively review the hazards posed by vector organisms on ships, the latest advances in prevention and control strategies, and proposes appropriate countermeasures. The aim is to provide effective guidance for the prevention and control of public health security issues caused by ship-borne vector organisms.

This paper has summarized current studies on retinitis pigmentosa （RP） from two perspectives， which were disease mechanism insights from western medicine， and etiology， pathogenesis and therapeutic principles in traditional Chinese medicine （TCM）. From the perspective of western medicine， the understanding of RP has evolved from an early single-factor explanation focusing on pathogenic gene mutations to a more comprehensive， multifactorial model involving genetic abnormalities， photoreceptor cell degeneration， retinal pigment epithelium dysfunction， oxidative stress， inflammatory responses， microenvironmental imbalance， and vascular insufficiency. In TCM， RP is considered to be a disorder manifested in the eyes but rooted in dysfunction of the zang-fu （脏腑） organs. Its pathogenesis is primarily associated with congenital insufficiency， liver-kidney depletion， impaired spleen function of transportation and transformation， and stasis obstructing the meridians. The core pathological mechanism can be summarized as "deficiency complicated by stasis"， emphasizing holistic imbalance， dynamic disease progression， and syndrome differentiation and treatment. The differences and complementarities between the two medical systems in understanding disease progression are further discussed. RP is proposed to be more appropriately regarded as a complex disease characterized by long-term progression， stage-dependent evolution， and persistent decompensation. Western medicine contributes to elucidating the molecular mechanisms underlying RP and provides the foundation for targeted therapeutic interventions， whereas TCM offers a holistic perspective for understanding disease evolution through the assessment of overall functional status， disease-stage stratification， and long-term syndrome-based regulation.

Objective To analyze the core elements of standardized diagnosis of occupational carpal tunnel syndrome (OCTS). Methods Data of first reported OCTS case in Guangdong Province were retrospectively analyzed, including occupational exposure history, clinical manifestations, auxiliary examinations, and on-site occupational health investigation results. Furthermore, standardized diagnostic approaches for such occupational diseases were explored. Results The patient worked in a garment manufacturing enterprise, engaged in fabric cutting. The patient had a occupational history of at least three consecutive years of repetitive right wrist work, holding a 15.2 kg electric cutting tool for a cumulative 6.6 hours per day, with awkward wrist movements repeated 13 times per minute. Clinical symptoms included numbness and reduced muscle strength in the areas of median nerve distribution of the right hand, which were aggravated during work and relieved after rest. Physical examination showed inability of right hand to perform fine motor opposition movements of the thumb with the index, middle, and ring fingers; decreased tactile, pain, vibration, graphesthesia, and kinesthetic sensations below the right wrist; and positive Tinel′s sign over the median nerve at the wrist crease level, Phalen′s test, and reverse Phalen′s test of right wrist. Both wrist high-frequency color Doppler ultrasonography and nerve conduction studies and electromyography indicated damage to the right median nerve. However, only the findings from high-frequency color Doppler ultrasonography of the wrist meet the diagnostic criteria specified in GBZ 336-2025 Diagnostic Standard for Occupational Carpal Tunnel Syndrome. On-site occupational health investigation confirmed that the work involved typical repetitive wrist work, and three co-workers in similar positions exhibited comparable symptoms. The case was ultimately diagnosed as OCTS. Conclusion The definitive diagnosis of OCTS requires comprehensive evaluation of four core elements: a clear occupational exposure history, typical clinical symptoms and signs, characteristic objective examination findings, and quantitative on-site occupational health investigation data. Only when these four elements corroborate each other and non-occupational causative factors are excluded can a definitive diagnosis be made.

Objective: To evaluate the application of blood conservation measures in obstetric patients with different red blood cell transfusion volumes and to assess the impact of different transfusion volumes on postpartum outcomes. Methods: A retrospective investigation was conducted on 448 obstetric patients who received blood transfusions at the Shanghai General Hospital, Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine from January 2016 to December 2022. Patients were divided into four groups (1-2 units group, 3-4 units group, 5-6 units group, and >6 units group) based on the volumes of red blood cells (RBCs) transfused during and within 7 days after delivery. The maternal physiological indicators, pre- and postpartum laboratory test indicators, obstetric complications, application of blood conservation measures, use of blood products, and postpartum outcomes were reviewed. The clinical characteristics, application of blood conservation measures, and their impact on postpartum outcomes were compared among different transfusion groups. Results: There were statistically significant differences in the multivariate logistic analysis of history of previous cesarean section (OR=1.781), eclampsia/pre-eclampsia/(OR=1.972) and postpartum blood loss>1 000 mL（OR=1.699）(P<0.05) among different transfusion groups. In terms of blood conservation measures, the more RBCs transfused, the higher the rate of mothers receiving blood conservation measures such as balloon occlusion, arterial ligation, autologous blood transfusion with a cell saver, and hysterectomy. With the increase in the volume of RBCs transfusion, the demand for fresh frozen plasma（FFP）, cryoprecipitate, and platelet transfusions also increased. The hospitalization days for the four groups of parturients were 6.0 (4.0-9.0), 7.5 (5.0-14.8), 7.0 (4.5-13.0) and 11.0 (9.0-20.5), respectively (P<0.05) and the rates of ICU transfer were 2.0% (5/250), 9.4% (12/128),18.2% (6/33) and 51.4% (19/37), respectively (P<0.05). Both increased significantly with the increase in the volume of RBCs transfusion, and the differences between groups were statistically significant. Conclusion: Parturients who received higher volume of RBCs had multiple risks factors for bleeding before childbirth, had higher postpartum blood loss, and had a higher rate of application of various blood conservation measures. In addition, an increase in the volume of RBCs transfusion may have adverse effects on postpartum recovery.
