ObjectiveTo investigate the prevalence of high-risk HPV infection among women in Kashgar area， analyze related risk factors， conduct follow-up and health education interventions for positive cases in the past three years， and assess intervention outcomes to improve HPV screening awareness and reduce cervical cancer incidence. MethodsThis study randomly selected 571 women from Kashgar who underwent HPV screening as part of a health check-up in the First People’s Hospital of Kashgar between January 2021 and June 2023. High-risk HPV-DNA was detected using the PCR-RDB method. Based on the test results， participants were divided into HPV-negative and HPV-positive groups， and the infection rates and associated risk factors were analyzed. Additionally， follow-up was conducted for women who tested positive for high-risk HPV during the screening to assess the effectiveness of health management interventions. ResultsFrom 2021 to 2023， the high-risk HPV positive rate among women in Kashgar showed a year-on-year decline， recorded at 19.15%， 16.43%， and 11.30%， respectively （P<0.001）， with a total of 3，921 cases （16.13%） testing positive for high-risk HPV during this period. Uyghur women had a significantly higher infection rate compared with those of Han nationality and other ethnic minorities （P<0.05）. Risk factors included age， age at first sexual activity， number of sexual partners， contraceptive methods， and a history of vaginal inflammation （P<0.05）. Health management interventions significantly improved participants’ awareness scores regarding cervical cancer prevention and the proportion of women voluntarily receiving HPV vaccination （P<0.05）. ConclusionsHigh-risk HPV infection among Uyghur women in Kashgar area is relatively high， with single infection of HPV-16 and HPV-52 and mixed infections of HPV-16 +HPV-52 and HPV-16 +HPV-58 being predominant. Risk factors include age at first sexual activity， number of sexual partners， contraceptive methods， and history of vaginal inflammation. Through triple-education interventions， the incidence of cervical cancer in Kashgar has been effectively reduced， and standards for primary-level diagnosis， treatment， and health supervision have been improved.

Lianggesan was first recorded in Taiping Huimin Heji Jufang， which was composed of Rhei Radix et Rhizoma， Natrii Sulfas， Gardeniae Fructus， Forsythiae Fructus， Scutellariae Radix， Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma（GRR）， Menthae Haplocalycis Herba， Lophatheri Herba and Mel. It was clinically applied to treat fire-heat syndrome in the upper and middle Jiao， and the curative effect was positive. In this study， the bibliometric method was used to conduct a detailed textual research on the formula name， medicinal composition， dosage evolution， origin and processing， functional indications and other aspects of Lianggesan. Research revealed that Lianggesan has six other names， such as Lianqiao Yinzi， Lianqiao Jiedusan， Jufang Lianggesan， Jiegu Lianggesan， Hejian Lianggesan and Qingji Lianggesan. Based on the edition of Taiping Huimin Heji Jufang， an analysis of the evolution of its formula composition revealed that the missing Chinese medicines were predominantly bamboo leaves and honey， while the added Chinese medicines were primarily supplements introduced to address changes in disease manifestations. After textual research， the dosage for one dose of Lianggesan from Taiping Huimin Heji Jufang was as follows：826 g of Rhei Radix et Rhizoma， 826 g of Natrii Sulfas， 826 g of GRR， 413 g of Gardeniae Fructus， 413 g of Menthae Haplocalycis Herba， 413 g of Scutellariae Radix， and 1652 g of Forsythiae Fructus. Decocting method was as following：Grinding the Chinese medicines into coarse powder（2-4 mm）， taking 8.16 g per dose， adding 300 mL of water， along with 2 g of Lophatheri Herba and 5 g of Mel， and decocting to 140 mL. The residue was removed and taken warmly 30 min after meals. It was recommended to take it three times daily until improvement was achieved. The origins of the 9 Chinese medicines were consistent with the 2020 edition of Pharmacopoeia of the People's Republic of China. Except for GRR， which required single frying（stir-frying）， the remaining medicines were all raw products. The description of the function of this formula in ancient books was summarized as purging fire and promoting bowel movements， clearing heat from the upper body and purging the lower body， and the main syndromes included facial redness， tongue swelling， red eyes， etc. In modern applications， the formula is primarily used for respiratory and digestive system diseases， including acute lung injury， chronic obstructive pulmonary disease， herpetic angina and aphthous stomatitis， covering 142 types of diseases. In summary， this paper can provide a basis for further research and development of Lianggesan through the literature review and key information combing.

BACKGROUND: Over 20 million colonoscopies are performed in China annually. An automatic clinical decision support system (CDSS) with accurate semantic recognition of colonoscopy reports and guideline-based is helpful to relieve the increasing medical burden and standardize the healthcare. In this study, the CDSS was built under a hierarchical-label interpretable classification framework, trained by a state-of-the-art transformer-based model, and validated in a multi-center style. METHODS: We conducted stratified sampling on a previously established dataset containing 302,965 electronic colonoscopy reports with pathology, identified 2041 patients' records representative of overall features, and randomly divided into the training and testing sets (7:3). A total of five main labels and 22 sublabels were applied to annotate each record on a network platform, and the data were trained respectively by three pre-training models on Chinese corpus website, including bidirectional encoder representations from transformers (BERT)-base-Chinese (BC), the BERT-wwm-ext-Chinese (BWEC), and ernie-3.0-base-zh (E3BZ). The performance of trained models was subsequently compared with a randomly initialized model, and the preferred model was selected. Model fine-tuning was applied to further enhance the capacity. The system was validated in five other hospitals with 3177 consecutive colonoscopy cases. RESULTS: The E3BZ pre-trained model exhibited the best performance, with a 90.18% accuracy and a 69.14% Macro-F1 score overall. The model achieved 100% accuracy in identifying cancer cases and 99.16% for normal cases. In external validation, the model exhibited favorable consistency and good performance among five hospitals. CONCLUSIONS The novel CDSS possesses high-level semantic recognition of colonoscopy reports, provides appropriate recommendations, and holds the potential to be a powerful tool for physicians and patients. The hierarchical multi-label strategy and pre-training method should be amendable to manage more medical text in the future.

OBJECTIVES: To investigate the incidence of myocardial injury in children with rotavirus-induced diarrhea, analyze its risk factors, and develop a predictive model for myocardial injury. METHODS: A retrospective analysis was conducted on 203 children diagnosed with rotavirus infection at the Suzhou Wujiang District Children's Hospital from January 2021 to December 2023. The children were divided into groups based on the presence or absence of myocardial injury. Basic information and laboratory indicators at admission were collected and compared between the two groups. LASSO regression was used to screen potential risk factors, followed by multivariate logistic regression to evaluate independent factors. A nomogram model was established and validated. RESULTS: Out of 203 children with rotavirus infection, 53 cases (26.1%) showed myocardial injury. Age, severe dehydration, metabolic acidosis, red cell distribution width, and blood sodium were closely associated with myocardial injury in children with rotavirus-induced diarrhea (P<0.05). The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve for the predictive model of myocardial injury was 0.841 (95%CI: 0.777-0.905), with a sensitivity of 73.6% and specificity of 85.3%. The model curve closely fit the ideal diagonal line. Decision curve analysis showed that using the model for prediction resulted in the highest net benefit when the probability threshold was 0.18-0.98. CONCLUSIONS The model developed in this study can predict the risk of myocardial injury in children with rotavirus-induced diarrhea.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effect of laparoscopic high ligation of spermatic cord vein in patients with chronic prostatitis and varicocele prostatitis. METHODS: A total of 90 varicocele patients were selected from January 2016 to December 2020, including 33 patients with chronic prostatitis. Changes of white blood cell count, National Institutes of Health chronic prostatitis symptom index (NIH-CPSI) score and serum testosterone level in the expressed prostate secretion (EPS) were observed before and after the operation of laparoscopic high ligation of spermatic vein. RESULTS: All patients were followed up three months after the surgery. There was no significant difference in the white blood cell counts in EPS, NIH-CPSI score, and serum testosterone level in patients with varicocele-only who underwent high ligation surgery after the operation. However, the white blood cell count in the EPS of patients with chronic prostatitis was lower than that before 3 months of operation ( ［12.39±4.23］×109/L vs ［21.36±5.05］×109/L). The NIH-CPSI score was significantly lower than that before operation ( ［12.71±6.21］ vs ［26.76±8.43］). And the serum testosterone level was higher than that before operation (［4.34±1.77］ng/ml vs ［2.36±1.05］ng/ml). CONCLUSION Laparoscopic high ligation of the spermatic vein in patients with chronic prostatitis and varicocele could effectively reduce the number of white blood cells in the EPS, boost the level of serum testosterone and improves symptoms of chronic prostatitis.

Chronic pain, frequently comorbid with neuropsychiatric disorders, significantly impairs patients' quality of life and functional capacity. Accumulating evidence implicates the chemokine CCL2 and its receptor CCR2 as key players in chronic pain pathogenesis. This review examines the regulatory mechanisms of the CCL2/CCR2 axis in chronic pain processing at three hierarchical levels: (1) Peripheral Sensitization: CCL2/CCR2 modulates TRPV1, Nav1.8, and HCN2 channels to increase neuronal excitability and CGRP signaling and calcium-dependent exocytosis in peripheral nociceptors to transmit pain. (2) Spinal Cord Central Sensitization: CCL2/CCR2 contributes to NMDAR-dependent plasticity, glial activation, GABAergic disinhibition, and opioid receptor desensitization. (3) Supraspinal Central Networks: CCL2/CCR2 signaling axis mediates the comorbidity mechanisms of pain with anxiety and cognitive impairment within brain regions, including the ACC, CeA, NAc, and hippocampus, and it also increases pain sensitization through the descending facilitation system. Current CCL2/CCR2-targeted therapeutic strategies and their development status are discussed, highlighting novel avenues for chronic pain management.

Objective:To investigate the efficiency and safety of the pulsatile GnRH therapy in the treatment of male congeni-tal hypogonadotropic hypogonadism(CHH).Methods:We retrospectively analyzed the clinical data on 45 CHH males treated by pulsatile GnRH therapy in our hospital from January 2013 to March 2023.We treated the patients with gonadorelin at 7-15 μg,one pulse/90 min,and followed them up every month in the first 3 months and then every 3 to 6 months after treatment,for an average of 19.1±4.3 months,during which we recorded the height,body weight,penile length,testis volume,Tanner stages,levels of FSH,LH and T,semen parameters and adverse reactions of the patients,followed by comparison of the data obtained with the baseline.Results:The levels of FSH,LH and T of the patients were dramatically elevated after treatment(P<0.01).The T level of the6 ca-ses of cryptorchidism,however,failed to reach the normal value within 18.2±8.6 months of follow-up.Significant improvement was seen in the external genitalia and secondary sexual characteristics of all the patients,and spermatogenesis was observed in the semen in 33 cases(73.3% ),with a mean sperm concentration of(18.2±6.2)106/ml,sperm progressive motility of(19.7±6.5)%,and semen volume of(1.8±0.6)ml.Eight of the cases achieved natural fertility,and another 3 achieved childbirth by assisted re-productive technology.As for adverse events,gynecomastia was observed in 8,subcutaneous induration in 6,and allergic reaction to therapeutic agent in 3 cases.Conclusion:Pulsatile GnRH therapy is an effective and safe strategy for male CHH.However,clini-cians should choose appropriate approaches to different individual cases.

Xianfang Huomingyin is known as the first prescription of surgery， also known as Shenxian Huomingyin and Zhenren Huomingyin. The earliest one was from Renzhai Zhizhi in the Southern Song dynasty. It was composed of 13 mainstream medicines such as Angelicae Dahuricae Radix， Saposhnikoviae Radix， Paeoniae Radix Rubra， and three modified medicines such as Rhei Radix et Rhizoma， Momordicae Semen and Astragali Radix. It has the effects of clearing heat and detoxifying， detumescence and ulceration， promoting blood circulation and relieving pain， and is mainly used to treat Yang syndrome. In this study， the bibliometrics method was used to systematically study the historical evolution， prescription composition， dosage， indications， decocting methods， administration methods， drug processing and ancient and modern applications of Xianfang Huomingyin. As for the drug origin， pangolin is consistent with the 2015 edition of Chinese Pharmacopoeia， the origins of the remaining drugs are consistent with the 2020 edition of Chinese Pharmacopoeia. According to the ancient and modern dosage conversion， the dosage of each drug is as follows：Angelicae Dahuricae Radix， Paeoniae Radix Rubra， Fritillariae Thunbergii Bulbus， Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma and Trichosanthis Radix， Olibanum of 4.13 g， Gleditsiae Spina and Myrrha of 2.07 g， Angelicae Sinensis tail（stir-fried with wine） and Citri Reticulatae Pericarpium of 6.2 g， Saposhnikoviae Radix（removing reed） of 2.89 g， pangolin（stir-fried with clam powder） of 4.14 g， Lonicerae Japonicae Flos of 12.39 g， or adding Rhei Radix et Rhizoma of 4.13 g and Momordicae Semen（shelled） of 3.3 g， adding Astragali Radix of 4.13 g for body deficiency. The above medicines were decocted with 450 mL of yellow rice wine to 300 mL， 1 dose for each time， 3 doses for each day， and warmed before or 0.5 h after meals， 1-6 doses， and discontinue medication as soon as get effect. Because this formula is easy to hurt the spleen and stomach， it should not be taken more. In the follow-up， it should be used in conjunction with Tuoli Xiaodusan， and other related symptoms of patients can be further improved through dialectical addition and subtraction. This formula has the efficacy of disinfection and pus discharge， removing blood stasis and relieving pain. All carbuncle gangrene without ulceration at the beginning， and for the empirical and heat syndrome. Modern applications involve more than 200 kinds of diseases with heat syndrome， emergency and excess syndrome as the main syndrome differentiation points in dermatology， peripheral vascular department and other departments. In a word， this paper studies the literature of Xianfang Huomingyin in order to provide a basis for its wider and deeper clinical application and development research.

Artificial intelligence (AI) for science (AI4S) technology, the AI technology for scientific research, has shown tremendous potential and influence in the field of healthcare, redefining the research paradigm of medical science under the guidance of computational medicine. We reviewed the main technological trends of AI4S in reshaping healthcare paradigm: knowledge-driven AI, leveraging extensive literature mining and data integration, emerges an important tool for understanding disease mechanisms and facilitating novel drug development; data-driven AI, delving into clinical and human-related omics data, unveils individual variances and disease mechanisms, and further establishes patient-centric digital twins to guide drug development and personalized medicine. Meanwhile, based on authentic patient digital twin models, adaptable strategies are employed to further propel the development of "e-drugs" that mimic the authentic mechanisms. These digital twins of drugs are evaluated for drug efficacy and safety through large-scale cloud-based virtual clinical trials, and followed by rationally designed real-world clinical trials, thus notably reducing drug development costs and enhancing success rates. Despite encountering challenges such as data scale, quality control, model interpretability, the transition from science insights to engineering solutions, and regulatory hurdles, we anticipate the integration of AI4S technology to revolutionize drug development and clinical practices. This transformation brings revolutionary changes to the medical field, offering novel opportunities and challenges for the development of medical science, and more importantly, providing necessary but personalized healthcare solutions for humankind.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the effect and mechanism of Panax notoginseng saponins （PNS） on wound healing after anal fistula surgery in rats by regulating the hypoxia-inducible factor-1α （HIF-1α）/vascular endothelial growth factor （VEGF）/ vascular endothelial growth factor receptor-2 （VEGFR2） signaling pathway. METHODS SD rats were selected to establish a postoperative rat model of anal fistula by infecting wound with Escherichia coli. The model rats were randomly grouped into model group， PNS low-dose and high-dose groups （15， 30 mg/cm2）， high-dose of PNS+2-methoxyestradiol （2ME2） group （PNS 30 mg/cm2+HIF-1α inhibitor 2ME2 4 mg/kg）， with 10 rats in each group. Another 10 normal rats were selected for back hair removal treatment as the control group. Each drug group was injected with the corresponding drug solution intramuscularly or （and） intraperitoneally， once a day， for 3 weeks. After the last administration， the wound healing rate （excluding the control group）， microvascular density （MVD）， the expression of collagen Ⅰ and fibronectin （FN） in the wound tissue were detected in each group； the levels of angiogenic factors [VEGF， E-mail：842710813@qq.com angiopoietin-Ⅰ （Ang-Ⅰ）， Ang-Ⅱ] in serum， the levels of inflammatory factors [interleukin-6 （IL-6） and IL-2] in serum binggui7183@163.com and wound tissue as well as the expressions of the related proteins of HIF-1α/VEGF/VEGFR2 signaling pathway in the wound tissue of rats were also detected in each group. RESULTS The MVD， the expression of collagen Ⅰ and FN in the wound tissue， and the levels of IL-6 and IL-2 in serum and wound tissue of rats increased significantly in the model group， compared to the control group （P＜0.05）， while the serum levels of VEGF， Ang- Ⅰ and Ang-Ⅱ decreased significantly （P＜0.05）. The wound healing rate， the MVD in wound tissue， the serum levels of VEGF， Ang-Ⅰ and Ang-Ⅱ， the expressions of collagen Ⅰ and FN in the wound tissue， and protein expressions of HIF-1α， VEGF and VEGFR2 in the PNS low-dose and high-dose groups increased significantly， compared to the model group （P＜0.05）， while the levels of IL-6 and IL-2 in serum and wound tissue decreased significantly （P＜0.05）； the high-dose PNS had a stronger effect （P＜ 0.05）. 2ME2 could weaken the effect of PNS on above indicators of rats after anal fistula surgery （P＜0.05）. CONCLUSIONS PNS can promote the production of angiogenic factors and inhibit the production of pro-inflammatory factors， thereby promoting wound healing in rats after anal fistula surgery. The above effects are related to the activation of HIF-1α/VEGF/VEGFR2 signaling pathway.
