OBJECTIVE To explore a model for constructing a platform for medical institution formulation and provide insights for promoting their development. METHODS By systematically reviewing the development status and challenges of medical institution preparations in China， and based on the theory of industry-university-research collaborative innovation， the organizational structure， collaborative processes， and safeguard mechanisms of the platform were designed. RESULTS & CONCLUSIONS Medical institution formulations in China mainly faced challenges such as weak research and development （R&D） capacity， uneven quality standards， and blocked transformation pathways. This study established a full-chain， whole- industry collaborative innovation network covering the government， medical institutions， universities/research institutes， pharmaceutical enterprises， and the market， forming a new “government-industry-university-research-application” five-in-one platform model for medical institution formulations. By establishing mechanisms such as multi-entity collaborative cooperation， full- chain intellectual property management， contribution-based benefit distribution， staged risk-sharing， and third-party evaluation， the model clarified the responsibilities and collaborative pathways of all parties. The new model highlights the whole-process transformation of clinical experience-based prescriptions， enabling precise alignment between clinical needs and technological R&D， as well as between preparation achievements and industrial transformation. While breaking down the barriers of traditional platform construction， it effectively achieves optimal resource allocation and complementary advantages， addresses problems emerging in the development of medical institution preparations， and provides reference value for the formulation of relevant systems.

Objective: To explore the effects of personality and sleep quality with psychological distress of junior and senior high school stduents, so as to provide a reference basis for precise interventions of junior and senior high school students mental health. Methods: In October 2023, a convenience sampling method was used to select 9 034 students aged 12-17 from Shiyan City as the study subjects. The Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) and Kessler Psychological Distress Scale (K10) were used to collect information on sleep quality and psychological distress of junior and senior high school stduents. Between group comparison was conducted by using t-test and Chi-square test. Generalized linear models were employed to analyze the interaction and joint effects of personality and sleep quality on psychological distress. Results: The generalized linear model analysis showed that the interaction between personality and sleep quality on psychological distress was statistically significant of junior and senior high school students(effect size=0.80, P <0.01). The general linear model analysis indicated that, after adjusting for variables such as age, gender, screen time, and daily sitting time with the extroverted and good sleep quality group as the reference, the introverted and poor sleep quality group had the largest mean difference in psychological distress scores (difference=0.51, P <0.05). When stratified by sleep quality, psychological distress scores were higher in the introverted and neutral personality groups with both poor and good sleep quality compared to the extroverted group (poor sleep quality: introverted difference=3.71, neutral difference=1.14; good sleep quality: introverted difference=2.23, neutral difference=0.57, all P < 0.05). When stratified by personality, psychological distress scores were higher in the poor sleep quality groups for introverted, neutral, and extroverted individuals compared to their good sleep quality counterparts (differences=8.66, 7.83, 7.34, all P < 0.05 ). Conclusions Personality and sleep quality have interactive and joint effects on psychological distress of junior and senior high school stduents. Personalized psychological interventions should be developed based on personality and sleep quality.

Objective: To understand the impact of childhood trauma on psychological distress among upper grade elemetary school students, and to explore the mediating role of leisure activities in the relationship, so as to provide a basis for developing mental health intervention strategies. Methods: From August to November 2024, a combination of convenience sampling and stratified cluster random sampling was employed to recruit 1 373 fourth to sixth grade students from four primary schools in Harbin. The Childhood Trauma Questionnaire(CTQ), a self designed leisure activity scale (including active and passive leisure activities), and the Kessler Psychological Distress Scale (K10) were used to assess childhood trauma experiences, leisure activities, and levels of psychological distress. Spearman correlation analysis and linear regression analysis were conducted to explore the relationships among childhood trauma, leisure types, leisure time, and psychological distress. Based on the mediation analysis framework proposed by Hayes (Model 4), the mediating role of leisure types in the relationship between childhood trauma and psychological distress was examined. Results: Totally 19.1% of the upper elemetary school students exhibited psychological distress, while 30.2% had experienced childhood trauma. During school days, 64.6% of the students were reported of having leisure time concentrated between 1 and 5 hours per day, whereas 67.4% reported leisure time exceeding 5 hours per day on weekends. After controlling for potential demographic confounders such as gender, grade, ethnicity, household registration, being an only child, parents educational level, co residence, and whether parents are first time married,linear regression analysis showed that childhood trauma experience had positive predictive effect on psychological distress in upper primary school students( β =0.20, P <0.01). Leisure time showed no statistically significant association with psychological distress, both on school days ( β =-0.58 to -0.56) and weekends ( β =0.26- 0.98 )(all P >0.05). Active leisure activities were negatively associated with psychological distress ( β =-0.20), while passive leisure activities were positively associated with psychological distress ( β =0.29)(both P <0.01). Leisure type partially mediated the relationship between childhood trauma and psychological distress, accounting for 11.7% of the indirect effect. Conclusion Childhood trauma experiences positively predict psychological distress in upper elementary school students, and affect psychological distress through active leisure and passive leisure.

Objective: To analyze adverse event following immunization(AEFI) with the domestic bivalent human papilloma virus (HPV) vaccine among female students in primary, junior, and senior high schools in Hebei Province from 2022 to 2024, aiming to provide evidence for the vaccination program. Methods: On May 14, 2025, AEFI case data and vaccination data for the domestic bivalent HPV vaccine among female students in primary, junior, and senior high schools in Hebei Province from 2022 to 2024 were collected from the China Disease Control and Prevention Information System and the Hebei Provincial Immunization Program Information Management System, respectively. Statistical analysis was performed by using descriptive and analytical epidemiological methods, with intergroup comparisons conducted by using the Chi square test or Fisher s exact probability test. Results: From 2022 to 2024, a total of 817 900 doses of the domestic bivalent HPV vaccine were administered to female students in primary, junior, and senior high schools in Hebei Province. A total of 68 AEFI cases were reported, comprising 57 common vaccine reactions, 7 rare vaccine reactions, 3 coincidental events, and 1 psychogenic reaction. The overall AEFI reporting rate was 8.31 per 100 000 doses, 4 cases (2.30/100 000 doses), 31 cases (8.73/100 000 doses), and 33 cases (11.41/100 000 doses) were reported in 2022, 2023, and 2024, respectively, with a statistically significant difference across years ( χ 2=10.97, P <0.01). The reporting rates for common and rare vaccine reactions were 6.97 per 100 000 doses and 0.86 per 100 000 doses, respectively. The AEFI reporting rates were 15.14 per 100 000 doses among primary school girls and 8.20 per 100 000 doses among secondary school girls, though the difference was not statistically significant (Fisher s exact test, P =0.30). The reporting rate was higher after the first dose (10.91/100 000 doses) than after the second dose (5.96/100 000 doses; χ 2=5.85, P =0.02).The second quarter recorded the highest AEFI reporting rate at 11.21 per 100 000 doses. The majority of AEFI cases (56 cases, 82.35%) occurred within 24 hours post vaccination. Conclusion The domestic bivalent HPV vaccine demonstrates a favorable safety profile among female students in Hebei Province, with a low overall AEFI reporting rate that consisted predominantly of general reactions and occasional cardiac related reactions.

ObjectiveThis study aimed to investigate the action mechanism by which Banxia Xiexintang （BXT） inhibits epithelial-mesenchymal transition （EMT） in chronic atrophic gastritis （CAG） rats by regulating the interleukin-17（IL-17）/extracellular regulated protein kinases（ERK）/CCAAT enhancer binding protein β（C/EBPβ）signaling pathway， thereby providing new theoretical evidence for the treatment of CAG with classic traditional Chinese medicine formulas. MethodsA CAG rat model was established by using the combined factor method. After successful modeling， the rats were randomly divided into the model group， low-， medium-， and high-dose groups （0.549， 1.098， 2.196 g·kg^-1， respectively） of BXT， and the positive drug group （vitacoenzyme， 0.3 g·kg^-1）. A normal control group was also set up. After 8 weeks of intervention， the pathological changes of gastric tissue were evaluated. The enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay （ELISA） was used to detect the contents of IL-17， tumor necrosis factor-α （TNF-α）， cyclooxygenase-2 （COX-2）， and C/EBPβ in serum， as well as the contents of EMT markers in gastric mucosal tissue including E-cadherin， N-cadherin， and vimentin. The immunohistochemistry method was employed to determine the localization and protein expression levels of IL-17， p-ERK， and C/EBPβ in gastric mucosal tissue. Western blot was used to detect the protein expressions of C/EBPβ， ERK， and its phosphorylated form （p）-ERK in gastric mucosa. Real-time polymerase chain reaction （Real-time PCR） was applied to measure the mRNA expression levels of ERK， COX-2， and C/EBPβ in gastric mucosa. ResultsCompared with those in the normal control group， the rats in the model group showed gastric mucosal glandular atrophy and inflammatory cell infiltration. The protein and their related mRNA expressions of C/EBPβ， ERK， and p-ERK in gastric mucosa were significantly increased （P<0.05，P<0.01）. The levels of IL-17， TNF-α， COX-2， and C/EBPβ in serum were significantly increased （P<0.01）. The contents of N-cadherin and vimentin in gastric mucosal tissue were significantly increased， while the content of E-cadherin was significantly decreased （P<0.01）. Compared with the model group， after intervention with different doses of BXT， the pathological damage of the gastric mucosa was improved to varying degrees. The protein and mRNA expressions of C/EBPβ， ERK， and p-ERK in gastric mucosa were significantly reduced （P<0.05，P<0.01）. The levels of IL-17， TNF-α， COX-2， and C/EBP β in serum were significantly decreased （P<0.01）. The contents of N-cadherin and vimentin in gastric mucosa tissue were decreased， while the content of E-cadherin was increased （P<0.05，P<0.01）. ConclusionBXT can effectively improve the pathological damage of gastric mucosal tissue in CAG rats. Its action mechanism may be related to reducing the levels of IL-17 and TNF-α in serum， regulating the IL-17/ERK/C/EBPβ signaling pathway and inhibiting the EMT process.

ObjectiveTo investigate the characteristics and potential mechanisms of Luotong Xianrong Yin （LTXRY） in improving lung injury in rats with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis （IPF） by regulating glycolysis. MethodsForty specific pathogen-free （SPF） Sprague-Dawley （SD） rats were randomly divided into a sham-operated group （10 mL·kg^-1）， model group （10 mL·kg^-1）， LTXRY group （15.18 g·kg^-1）， and nintedanib group （0.1 g·kg^-1）， with 10 rats in each group. The IPF rat model was established by intratracheal instillation of bleomycin. After 28 days of gavage intervention， pulmonary function was assessed. Lung pathological changes were observed by hematoxylin-eosin （HE） and Masson staining. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay （ELISA） was used to determine the levels of inflammatory factors， including tumor necrosis factor-α （TNF-α）， interleukin （IL）-1β， and IL-6， in lung tissue. Chemiluminescence assays were employed to detect lactate content and lactate dehydrogenase activity in lung tissue. Western blot was used to measure the protein expression of transforming growth factor-β₁ （TGF-β₁）， CollagenⅠ and CollagenⅢ to evaluate collagen deposition， as well as hexokinase 2 （HK2）， pyruvate kinase M2 （PKM2）， and 6-phosphofructo-2-kinase/fructose-2，6-bisphosphatase 3 （PFKFB3） to assess glycolysis levels. Network pharmacology was applied to analyze the potential targets and signaling pathways of LTXRY in IPF， and molecular docking was conducted to evaluate the binding energy between active components and potential targets. Western blot was further used to detect the expression of target- and pathway-related proteins. ResultsCompared with the sham-operated group， rats in the model group showed significantly increased main airway resistance （Rn） and respiratory system resistance （Rrs）， and significantly decreased respiratory system compliance （Crs）. Inflammatory infiltration and collagen deposition were observed in lung tissue， with significantly increased levels of TNF-α， IL-1β， and IL-6， as well as elevated protein expression of TGF-β₁， CollagenⅠ and CollagenⅢ. Lactate content， lactate dehydrogenase activity， and the protein expression of HK2， PKM2， and PFKFB3 in lung tissue were significantly increased. Network pharmacology analysis indicated that signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 （STAT3） was a key target of LTXRY in IPF， and hypoxia-inducible factor-1 （HIF-1） was a critical signaling pathway. The expression levels of phosphorylated STAT3 （p-STAT3） and HIF-1α in lung tissue were significantly higher than those in the sham-operated group. Compared with the model group， rats in the LTXRY group showed significantly decreased Rn and Rrs and significantly increased Crs. Lung inflammatory infiltration and collagen deposition were markedly alleviated， with significantly reduced levels of TNF-α， IL-1β， and IL-6， and decreased protein expression of TGF-β₁， CollagenⅠ and CollagenⅢ. Lactate content， lactate dehydrogenase activity， and the protein expression of HK2， PKM2， and PFKFB3 were significantly decreased， accompanied by markedly reduced expression of p-STAT3 and HIF-1α. ConclusionLTXRY alleviates lung tissue injury in IPF rats by regulating glycolysis mediated by the STAT3/HIF-1α signaling pathway.

Objective To systematically review international research on health communication, and to provide valuable insights and reference for China's health communication research and practice. Methods This study included 693 articles published from January 2023 to April 2024 in two authoritative academic journals in the field of health communication, ^“Health Communication^” and the ^“Journal of Health Communication^”. A systematic review was conducted on the themes, theoretical foundations, research methods, and populations of international health communication research. Results The findings in this study revealed that international health communication research topics were diverse, with hotspots including social media, health information behavior, health misinformation, stigmatization, trust, and risk perception. The results showed that 34% of the articles were based on theoretical foundations, and 93.3% employed research methods, focusing on adolescents, parents, women, and other key populations. Conclusion Domestic health communication research can expand its perspective from ^“information transmission^” to ^“social interaction^”, innovate theories and methods from ^“single paradigm" to ^“multi-integration^” and shift focus from a ^“mass perspective^” to ^“targeted care^” for the health of all populations. Domestic health communication practice can delve into the localization of social media health communication practices, the comprehensive management of health misinformation, and the critical application of new technologies.

Objective To understand the status of body image disturbance and its influencing factors in patients with ankylosing spondylitis (AS), so as to provide a scientific basis for the clinical management of AS. Methods A total of 353 AS patients admitted from January 2022 to December 2024 were selected as research subjects. Chinese version of Body Image Disturbance Questionnaire (BIDQ) was used to investigate the body image disturbance in AS patients. Single factor analysis was performed by t test and analysis of variance, and multiple factors were analyzed by multivariate linear regression. Results The total score of BIDQ in 342 AS patients was (25.01±4.22). Multivariate linear regression analysis results showed that self-paid medical expense, nighttime VAS score and negative emotion PANAS score could positively predict body image disturbance in AS patients (standardized regression coefficient=0.413, 0.413, 0.460, P<0.05), and PSSS score, positive emotion PANAS score and exercise management CDSSM score could negatively predict body image disturbance (standardized regression coefficient=-0.245, -0.134, -0.247, P<0.05). Conclusion The body image disturbance in AS patients is worthy of clinical attention. Nighttime pain, negative emotion and self-paid medical treatment can increase the risk of body image disturbance. Positive emotion, social support and high self-management level of exercise behavior can reduce the formation of body image disturbance, which can provide new ideas for clinical management of AS patients.
