With the rapid development of generative artificial intelligence(GAI)technologies,their widespread application in academic research and writing is continuously expanding the boundaries of sci-entific inquiry.However,this trend has also raised a series of ethical and regulatory challenges,inclu-ding issues related to authorship,content authenticity,citation accuracy,and accountability.In light of the growing involvement of AI in generating academic content,establishing an open,controllable,and trustworthy ethical governance framework has become a key task for safeguarding research integrity and maintaining trust within the academic community.This expert consensus outlines ethical requirements across key stages of AI-assisted academic writing-including topic selection,data management,citation practices,and authorship attribution.It aims to clarify the boundaries and ethical obligations surrounding AI use in academic writing,ensuring that technological tools enhance efficiency without compromising in-tegrity.The goal is to provide guidance and institutional support for building a responsible and sustainable research ecosystem.

Objective:To investigate lymph node metastasis(LNM)in the prostatic anterior fat pad(PAFP)of PCa patients after robot-assisted radical prostatectomy(RARP),and analyze the clinicopathological features and prognosis of LNM in the PAFP.Methods:We retrospectively analyzed the clinicopathological data on 1 003 cases of PCa treated by RARP in the Department of Urolo-gy of PLA General Hospital from January 2017 to December 2022.All the patients underwent routine removal of the PAFP during RARP and pathological examination,with the results of all the specimens examined and reported by pathologists.Based on the pres-ence and locations of LNM,we grouped the patients for statistical analysis,compared the clinicopathological features between different groups using the Student's t,Mann-Whitney U and Chi-square tests,and conducted survival analyses using the Kaplan-Meier and Log-rank methods and survival curves generated by Rstudio.Results:Lymph nodes were detected in 77(7.7％)of the 1 003 PAFP samples,and LNM in 11(14.3％)of the 77 cases,with a positive rate of 1.1％(11/1 003).Of the 11 positive cases,9 were found in the upgraded pathological N stage,and the other 2 complicated by pelvic LNM.The patients with postoperative pathological stage≥T3 constituted a significantly higher proportion in the PAFP LNM than in the non-PAFP LNM group(81.8％[9/11]vs 36.2％[359/992],P=0.005),and so did the cases with Gleason score ≥8(87.5％[7/8]vs 35.5％[279/786],P=0.009).No statisti-cally significant differences were observed in the clinicopathological features and biochemical recurrence-free survival between the pa-tients with PAFP LNM only and those with pelvic LNM only.Conclusion:The PAFP is a potential route to LNM,and patients with LNM in the PAFP are characterized by poor pathological features.There is no statistically significant difference in biochemical recur-rence-free survival between the patients with PAFP LNM only and those with pelvic LNM only.Routine removal of the PAFP and inde-pendent pathological examination of the specimen during RARP is of great clinical significance.

Objective To understand the current situation of healthcare-associated infection(HAI)in China,pro-vide data support and decision-making basis for formulating scientific and effective strategies for HAI prevention and control.Methods A nationwide cross-sectional survey on HAI was conducted among various types and levels of medical institutions in China according to a unified protocol of bedside surveys and case investigations.Results In 2024,a total of 5 736 medical institutions and 2 751 765 patients were surveyed.Among them,34 889 HAI cases were identified,with a prevalence rate of 1.27％.The number of HAI episodes was 38 032,and case prevalence rate was 1.38％.The prevalence rate of HAI in medical institutions in different regions of China ranged from 0.66％to 2.35％.Among medical institutions of different scales,those with a bed capacity of ≥900 had the high-est incidence of HAI,reaching 1.65％.The most common infection site was the lower respiratory tract(44.66％),followed by the urinary tract(12.94％),surgical site(9.32％),upper respiratory tract(7.02％),and bloodstream infection(5.78％).The top 3 departments with the highest HAI rates were the general intensive care unit(10.02％),department of neurosurgery(5.51％),and department(group)of hematology(5.34％).A total of 23 238 strains of HAI pathogens were detected,with 10 714 strains(46.10％)from lower respiratory tract speci-mens.The top 5 detected strains were Klebsiella pneumoniae(14.76％),Pseudomonas aeruginosa(13.33％),Escherichia coli(12.79％),Acinetobacter baumannii(9.23％),and Staphylococcus aureus(7.88％).231 944 pa-tients underwent class Ⅰ incision surgery were monitored,with 1 647 cases experienced surgical site infection,and the prevalence rate of surgical site infection was 0.71％.The number of patients who should undergo pathogen de-tection(patients receiving therapeutic and therapeutic combined prophylactic antimicrobial agents)was 715 179,while the actual number was 480 492,with a pathogen detection rate of 67.18％.425 225 patients received patho-genic detection before treatment,with a detection rate of 59.46％.Conclusion The overall HAI prevalence in Chi-na is lower,showing disparities among medical institutions of different regions and scales.Therefore,precise imple-mentation of measures is necessary for HAI prevention and control,with a focus on high-risk institutions and high-risk departments,key areas,and critical procedures.All levels of medical institutions should continuously reduce the incidence of HAI by strengthening monitoring,standardizing the use of antimicrobial agents,and reinforcing basic HAI prevention and control measures.

Objective:To examine the relationships between perceived organizational support in job resources, self-efficacy in personal resources, and teaching commitment based on the job requirement-resource model, and to explore the path of influencing clinical teachers' teaching commitment.Methods:Using the convenience sampling method, 463 clinical teachers from 16 university-affilicated hospitals in Shandong Province, China were selected as the study subjects. Surveys were conducted using the Perceived Organizational Support Scale, Self-efficacy Scale, and Teaching Commitment Scale. A statistical analysis was performed using SPSS 26.0. A structural equation model was constructed using AMOS 26.0 to test the mediation effect.Results:①The level of teaching commitment of clinical teachers was relatively high, with a total score of (45.25±9.21) points. The total score of perceived organizational support was (38.22±9.75) points, and the total score of self-efficacy was (112.27±17.30) points. ②Perceived organizational support and self-efficacy were positively correlated with teaching commitment ( r=0.59, r=0.65, both P<0.01). ③ Perceived organizational support had significant and direct positive effects on teaching commitment and self-efficacy ( β=0.36, β=0.51, both P<0.01). Self-efficacy significantly and positively affected teaching commitment ( β=0.47, P<0.01). Self-efficacy played a significant and partial mediating role in the effect of perceived organizational support on teaching commitment (standardized mediating effect value of 0.239, P<0.01), and the mediating effect percentage was 39.83%. Conclusions:Perceived organizational support not only directly predicts clinical teachers' teaching commitment, but also indirectly affects teaching commitment through self-efficacy. University-affiliated hospital administrators should pay attention to clinical teachers' perceived organizational support to improve their self-efficacy and teaching commitment, thereby ensuring teaching quality.

Objective:To investigate the impacts of self-made Huanjie Mixture on airway remodeling and PI3K/AKT/mTOR signal pathway in asthma mice.Methods:Sixty BALB/c mice were randomly grouped into control group,ovalbumin(OVA)group,self-made Huanjie Mixture low,medium and high dose groups(SHM-L,M,H groups)and PI3K inhibitor group(LY294002 group).In addition to the control group,other groups of mice were sensitized and challenged with OVA to build asthma models.After adminis-tration,the airway hyperresponsiveness of mice was detected by small animal lung function instrument;the levels of serum total IgE,IL-4 and IFN-γ in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid(BALF)were detected by ELISA;HE staining and PAS staining were applied to ob-serve the airway inflammation and mucus secretion in the lung tissue of mice;immunohistochemical staining was applied to detect the expression of α-SMA in mouse lung tissue;Western blot was applied to detect the expression of PI3K/AKT/mTOR signal pathway relat-ed proteins in mice lung tissue.Results:Compared with control group,the airway resistance(Rn),total IgE level,IL-4 level,inflam-mation score,the proportion of PAS positive staining area,the positive expression level of α-SMA protein,and the ratios of p-PI3K/PI3K,p-AKT/AKT,p-mTOR/mTOR in OVA group were increased,while IFN-γ level was decreased(P<0.05);compared with OVA group,Rn,total IgE level,IL-4 level,inflammation score,proportion of PAS positive staining area,positive expression level of α-SMA protein,and the ratios of p-PI3K/PI3K,p-AKT/AKT,p-mTOR/mTOR in SHM-L,M,H groups and LY294002 group were decreased,while IFN-γ level was increased(P<0.05),the changes of the above indexes in SHM-L,M and H groups showed a dose-dependent effect;compared with SHM-H group,the above indexes of LY294002 group mice had no obvious difference(P>0.05).Conclusion:The self-made Huanjie Mixture can reduce airway remodeling in asthma mice,and the inhibition of PI3K/AKT/mTOR signal pathway activation may be one of its mechanisms.

Objective The mechanism of Huazhuo xingxue decoction(HZXXD)in the treatment of ischemic stroke was explored through network pharmacology,molecular docking and cell validation.Methods TCMSP,TCMID,BATMAN-TCM database and literature search were used to get the chemical components and related target proteins of Huazhuo Xingxue Decoction,and the targets of dementia,stroke and amnesia were obtained from Genecards database and OMIM database.The traditional Chinese medicine-active components-target-network and protein interaction map were constructed by using Cytoscape,and the target was enriched by KEGG pathway by David database.Western blot was used to investigate the effect of HZXXD on inflammation-related core targets expression using oxygen and glucose deprivation/reoxygenation cell model.Finally,Autodock was used for molecular docking of key active ingredients and important targets to evaluate their binding activity.Results 76 active molecules and 33 common targets of herb-disease were screened out.KEGG bioaccumulation results involve multiple inflammatory signal pathways such as TNF,chemical carcinogenesis-reactive oxygen species and HIF-1.TNF-α was found to be the core target of HZXXD by oxygen glucose deprivation/reoxygenation cell experiments.Five compounds with the strongest binding ability to TNF-α,kaempferol,apigenin,aloe-emodin,baicalein and stigasterol,were screened by traditional Chinese medicine-active ingredient-target network map and molecular docking.Conclusion Huazhuo Xingxue Decoction may down regulate the expression of core target TNF-α,kaempferol,apigenin,aloe emodin,baicalein and stigasterol may be the main active substances for TNF-α binding.

Objective To investigate the clinical features of chronic hepatitis C(CHC)patients with hepatitis C virus genotype 3(HCV GT3)infection and the risk factors for disease progression.Methods A multicenter retrospective cohort study was conducted among 1 002 CHC patients from 11 clinical centers in Northwest China from December 2017 to November 2023,and according to their genotype,they were divided into GT1,GT2,GT3,and GT6 groups.Clinical features were compared between the patients with different genotypes.The one-way analysis of variance was used for comparison of normally distributed continuous data between groups,and the Scheffe test was used for further comparison between two groups.The Kruskal-Wallis H test was used for comparison of data with skewed distribution between groups;the chi-square test or Fisher test was used for comparison of categorical data between groups.The multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to explore the influencing factors for the progression of CHC to liver cirrhosis.Results In terms of the genotype,there were 427 patients with GT1 infection,242 with GT2 infection,299 with GT3 infection(210 patients with GT3a infection,87 with GT3b infection,and 2 with unclassified genotype),and 34 with GT6 infection.The patients with GT3 infection had a significantly younger age than those with GT1 infection(51.3±0.5 years vs 53.2±0.6 years,P<0.05)or GT2 infection(51.3±0.5 years vs 53.7±0.8 years,P<0.05),and for the patients with liver cirrhosis,the patients with GT3 infection had a significantly younger age than those with GT1 infection(52.1±0.5 years vs 59.4±0.9 years,P<0.001)or GT2 infection(52.1±0.5 years vs 58.1±1.1 years,P<0.001).Among the patients with GT3 infection,male patients accounted for 77.9%and the patients with liver cirrhosis accounted for 46.2%,which were significantly higher than those among the patients with GT1,GT2 or GT6 infection(all P<0.001).At baseline,the patients with GT3 infection had significantly higher levels of alanine aminotransferase(ALT)and aspartate aminotransferase(AST)than those with GT1 or GT2 infection,significantly higher aspartate aminotransferase-to-platelet ratio index(APRI)and fibrosis-4(FIB4)than those with GT1,GT2 or GT6 infection,a significantly lower platelet count(PLT)than those with GT2 or GT6 infection,a significantly higher level of alpha-fetoprotein than those with GT2 or GT6 infection,and a significantly lower level of albumin(Alb)than those with GT6 infection(all P<0.05).There were no significant differences between the patients with GT3a infection and those with GT3b infection in age,sex,the proportion of patients with liver cirrhosis,comorbidities,HCV RNA quantification,PLT,ALT,AST,alkaline phosphatase,Alb,APRI,and FIB-4(all P>0.05).The multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that PLT≤150×109/L(odds ratio[OR]=10.72,95%confidence interval[CI]:5.76-35.86,P<0.001)and Alb≤35 g/L(OR=3.74,95%CI:1.22-11.45,P=0.021)were risk factors for liver cirrhosis.Conclusion Most CHC patients with GT3 infection are male in Northwest China,and compared with the patients with other genotypes,such patients tend to have a younger age of onset and higher degrees of liver inflammation activity and fibrosis.Low PLT and a low level of Alb are risk factors for progression to liver cirrhosis in CHC patients with GT3 infection.

Objective To study the influences of the structural parameters of the pump head flow channel on the energy dissipation of injection pumps and optimize the pump head flow channel structural parameters.Methods Firstly,three structural parameters of the injection pump head flow channel,namely the input chamber diameter,the connecting chamber diameter and the plunger rod chamber diameter,were selected as the experimental factors for orthogonal experimental design,and the total entropy production values of the injection pump head flow channels with different structures were obtained through entropy production analysis;secondly,the effects of the three structural parameters on the total entropy production values were explored with the range method;finally,the Kriging interpolation proxy model analysis and computational fluid dynamics(CFD)numerical analysis of the injection pump head flow channel were carried out to determine the effects of the combinations of the three structural parameters by pairs on the total entropy production values,and the structural parameters of the injection pump head flow channel were optimized with the objective of energy dissipation.Results The minimum total entropy production value was 2 783 970 mW/K,which was 29.8%lower than that in case of the initial structure(3 966 072 mW/K),when the input chamber diameter was 4.8 mm,the connecting chamber diameter was 0.32 mm and the plunger rod chamber diameter was 1.0 mm;the three structural parameters had significant differences in the effects on the total entropy production value,ordered as the plunger rod chamber diameter,the input chamber diameter and the connecting chamber diameter;considering the energy dissipation,the total entropy production value was minimized in case of the minimal input chamber diameter,the maximal connecting chamber diameter and the medium-sized plunger rod chamber diameter.Conclusion The input chamber diameter,the connecting chamber diameter and the plunger rod chamber diameter have differences in the sensitivity to the effects on the energy dissipation of the injection pump head flow channel,and the structural parameters of the head flow path can be optimized accordingly with the goal of minimizing energy dissipation.[Chinese Medical Equipment Journal,2025,46(9):28-32]

Objective To explore the influence of exercise prescription on cognitive function recovery in college students with mild-to-moderate depression.Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on clinical data from college students diagnosed with mild-to-moderate depression who received care at The Second Affiliated Hospital of Xinxiang Medical College between January 2022 and June 2024.Depression patients receiving standard drug treatment were enrolled in the control group,while those receiving additional exercise prescription intervention were enrolled in the observation group.Propensity score matching was performed using the 1∶1 nearest-neighbor method to balance confounding factors,and 55 participants were included in each group in the end.Assessments were conducted at baseline and after 3 weeks and 6 weeks of treatment,covering the disease severity measured by the 24-item Hamilton Depression Rating Scale(HAMD-24),depressive symptoms measured by the Self-Rating Depression Scale(SDS),brain cognitive function measured by P300 and fNIRS,neurosecretory system function measured through corticotropin releasing hormone(CRH)and adrenocorticotropic hormone(ACTH),and the levels of neurotrophic factors,including brain-derived neurotrophic factor(BDNF),insulin-like growth factor 1(IGF-1),and vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF).Disease severity was the primary research indicator,while the others were secondary research indicators.The primary outcome indicator was the last measurement taken after 6 weeks of treatment.Results Interaction effects were observed between groups for all measured outcomes before and after treatment(all P<0.05).After 3 weeks and 6 weeks of treatment,the observation group showed lower HAMD-24 score,SDS score,P300 latency,fNIRS integral,CRH,and ACTH than the control group did(P<0.05),but higher P300 amplitude,BDNF,IGF-1,and VEGF than the control group did(P<0.05).Conclusion Receiving exercise prescription intervention can effectively reduce the severity of depressive symptoms,enhance the recovery of brain cognitive function,and improve the neurosecretory system function recovery and the expressions of neurotrophic factors in college students with mild-to-moderate depression.

Ferroptosis is an emerging form of regulated cell death characterized by iron-dependent lipid peroxidation and the failure of the antioxidant system，which results in iron-dependent oxidative damage to the cell membrane. Ferroptosis is implicated in various biological processes，including cell proliferation，aging，and differentiation. The regulation of oxidative stress by ferroptosis is closely associated with the inactivation of glutathione peroxidase 4（Gpx4），dysfunction of the cysteine/glutamate antiporter System Xc-，the production of reactive oxygen species derived from oxidized polyunsaturated fatty acids，and alterations in lipid metabolism. Oxidative stress is a critical mechanism underlying the onset and progression of benign prostatic hyperplasia（BPH）and plays a pivotal role in its pathogenesis. Ferroptosis may regulate the occurrence and development of BPH by mediating lipid oxidative stress response.
