ObjectiveTo investigate the distribution of traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） syndromes in intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy （ICP） and its association with perinatal outcomes， and to provide a basis for precise treatment based on TCM syndrome differentiation. MethodsA cross-sectional study was conducted among 275 patients with ICP who were admitted to The Affiliated Hospital of Chengdu University of Traditional Chinese Medicine from April 2023 to April 2025. A hierarchical cluster analysis was used to summarize TCM syndromes. The Kruskal-Wallis H test was used for comparison of non-normally distributed continuous data between groups， and the chi-square test was used for comparison of categorical data between groups. A multivariate Logistic regression analysis was used to identify the clinical features significantly associated with TCM syndrome. ResultsThe cluster analysis identified three core TCM syndromes among the 275 patients with ICP， i.e.， liver-gallbladder damp-heat syndrome （45.8%）， syndrome of blood deficiency generating wind （30.9%）， and liver depression and spleen deficiency syndrome （23.3%）. There was a significant difference in the distribution of TCM syndromes between different groups stratified by maternal age at delivery， parity， history of ICP recurrence， gestational weeks at disease onset， total bile acid （TBA）， alanine aminotransferase （ALT）， and comorbidity with gestational diabetes mellitus （GDM） （all P<0.05）. The multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that<34 gestational weeks at disease onset was significantly associated with all three syndromes （damp-heat： odds ratio ［OR］=3.769， P<0.001； blood deficiency： OR=4.031， P<0.001； liver stagnation： OR=3.552， P<0.001）. Liver-gallbladder damp-heat syndrome was associated with maternal age ≥35 years at disease onset （OR=2.048， P=0.014）， parity ≥2 times （OR=1.921， P=0.034）， history of ICP recurrence （OR=2.404， P=0.030）， ALT ≥200 U/L （OR=2.051， P=0.018）， comorbidity with GDM （OR=1.944， P=0.029）， and TBA ≥40 μmol/L （OR=2.542， P=0.024）. The syndrome of blood deficiency generating wind syndrome was associated with maternal age ≥35 years （OR=2.939， P=0.003）， parity ≥2 time （OR=3.222， P=0.003）， history of ICP recurrence （OR=3.809， P=0.010）， ALT ≥200 U/L （OR=2.889， P=0.006）， comorbidity with GDM （OR=3.711， P=0.001）， and comorbidity with hypertensive disorders of pregnancy （OR=4.472， P=0.011）. Liver depression and spleen deficiency syndrome was associated with TBA ≥40 μmol/L （OR=2.995， P=0.044）. The analysis of perinatal outcomes showed that there were significant differences in mode of delivery， gestational weeks at the time of delivery， postpartum blood loss， and neonatal birth weight between the three groups with different TCM syndromes （all P<0.05）. ConclusionLiver-gallbladder damp-heat syndrome， syndrome of blood deficiency generating wind， and liver depression and spleen deficiency syndrome are the main TCM syndrome types in ICP， and the distribution of TCM syndromes is closely associated with clinical factors and perinatal outcomes， which provides a basis for precise TCM syndrome differentiation and individualized treatment.

Objective:To evaluate the safety and efficacy of enhanced recovery after surgery(ERAS) in the perioperative period of congenital choledochal cysts in children.Methods:This is a multicenter prospective randomized controlled study. The clinical data of 273 pediatric congenital choledochal cysts(CCC) patients who underwent surgery at 14 medical centers with complete follow-up data were collected through the medical data analysis platform. Among them, 123 cases in ERAS group were managed perioperatively in strict accordance with ERAS mode, and 150 cases in conventional group were managed according to traditional mode. The length of hospital stay,time to first farting, time to complete feeding, the incidence of complications, cost and readmission rate within 30 days,stress indexes and liver function were compared between the two groups.Results:Compared with the conventional group, median time to start farting (2.0 d vs. 3.0 d, P<0.001), median time to complete feeding (5.0 d vs. 7.0 d, P<0.001), median postoperative hospitalization time (6.0 d vs. 9.0 d, P<0.001),the median total length of stay(13.0 d vs. 15.0 d, P<0.001) were shorter,the median hospitalization cost (37,000 yuan vs.43,000 yuan P<0.001) was lower, and stress indexes recovered quickly. The incidence of postoperative hospital stay and readimission rate within 30 d were not statistically different between the two groups. Conclusion:It is safe and feasible to implement ERAS for children with CCC in the perioperative period, which can reduce stress response, speed up recovery,and save medical costs.

Objective:To analyze the characteristics and prognosis of hearing loss in children with bacterial meningitis.Methods:This was a single-center retrospective cohort study. Patients diagnosed with bacterial meningitis who were hospitalized in Beijing Children′s Hospital between 2010 and 2016 and older than 28 days and younger than 18 years at symptom onset were included in this study ( n=573). All clinical information including hearing assessment results during hospitalization were reviewed. All patients with hearing loss were followed up to repeat their hearing test and assess their hearing condition with parents′ evaluation of aural and (or) oral performance of children (PEACH). Patients were grouped according to their hearing assessment results, and Logistic regression analysis was used to analyze the risk factors for hearing loss in patients with bacterial meningitis. Results:Five hundred and seventy-three patients were enrolled in this study, including 347 males and 226 females. The onset age ranged from 29 days to 15.8 years. Two hundred and forty-six patients had identified causative pathogens, among whom 92 cases (37.4%) were pneumococcal meningitis cases. Hearing loss was found in 160 cases (27.9%) during hospitalization, involving 240 ears. Permanent hearing loss was found in 20 cases (16.9%), involving 32 ears. In the patients with permanent hearing loss, 87.5% (28/32) of ears were identified as severe or profound hearing loss during hospitalization. Logistic regression analysis showed that dystonia, the protein concentration level in cerebrospinal fluid>1 g/L, glucose concentration level lower than 1 mmol/L and subdural effusion were independent risk factors for hearing loss ( OR=2.426 (1.450-4.059), 1.865 (1.186-2.932), 1.544 (1.002-2.381) and 1.904 (1.291-2.809)). Conclusions:Hearing loss is a common sequela of bacterial meningitis in children. Most patients have transient hearing loss, but patients with severe or profound hearing impairment have a higher risk of developing permanent hearing loss.

OBJECTIVE： To optimize the extraction technology of Shengmaiyin polysaccharide， and to investigate the regulation effects of Shengmaiyin and its polysaccharide on intestinal function of spleen deficiency model rats. METHODS： The contents of polysaccharide were determined by phenol-sulfuric acid method， and the extraction rate of polysaccharide was calculated. Using extraction rate of Shengmaiyin polysaccharide as investigation index， singel factor and orthogonal tests were used to optimize material-liquid ratio， extraction time， extraction temperature and extraction times of Shengmaiyin polysaccharide. Validation test was also conducted. Totally 80 male SD rats were randomly divided into blank group， model group， Shengmaiyin low-dose， medium-dose and high-dose groups （350， 700， 1 400 g/L， by crude drug）， Shengmaiyin polysaccharide low-dose， medium-dose and high-dose groups （24.5， 49， 98 g/L， by crude drug）， with 10 rats in each group. Except for blank group， other groups were given Rheum palmatum water decoction 10 mL/kg to induce spleen deficiency model， once a day， for consecutive 15 d. Since the 16th day， blank group and model group were given isovolumic water intragastrically， while other groups were given corresponding drugs， once a day， for consecutive 10 d. The general status of rats and body weights were recorded in each group. The serum contents of D-xylose， gastrin （GAS） and vasoactive intestinal peptide （VIP） were detected by phloroglucinol method or ELISA. RESULTS： The optimal extraction technology of Shengmaiyin polysaccharide was material-liquid ratio 1 ∶ 10（g/mL）， extraction time 45 min， extraction temperature 80 ℃， extracting for 1 time. Results of validation test showed that extraction rates of the polysaccharide in 3 times were 7.43％， 7.64％， 7.80％ （RSD＝1.01％， n＝3）. After modeling， except for blank group， other groups suffered from loose stools， thin body and reduced food intake， and the body weight and serum level of D-xylose were decreased significantly compared with blank group （P＜0.01）. After last medication， above symptoms of administration groups were improved to different extents. Except for model group， body weight and serum contents of D-xylose in other groups were increased significantly than those before modeling or before medication （P＜0.05 or P＜0.01）. Compared with blank group， body weight and serum content of GAS were decreased significantly in model group， while serum content of VIP was increased significantly （P＜0.01）. Compared with model group， body weight of Shengmaiyin medium-dose group and Shengmaiyin polysaccharide low-dose and high-dose groups， serum contents of D-xylose and GAS in Shengmaiyin medium-dose and high-dose groups and Shengmaiyin polysaccharide low-dose and medium-dose groups were increased significantly， while serum contents of VIP in Shengmaiyin groups and Shengmaiyin polysaccharide low-dose and medium-dose groups were all decreased significantly （P＜0.05 or P＜0.01）. CONCLUSIONS： The optimized extraction technology of Shengmaiyin polysaccharide is stable and feasible. Shengmaiyin and its polysaccharide contribute to the recovery of intestinal function of spleen deficiency model rat， the effects of which may be associated with the secretion regulation of GAS and VIP.

Objective: To summarize the clinical characteristics, virological and histopathological features, clinical outcome of Epstein-Barr virus-positive lymphoproliferative disease (EBV⁺LPD) in children. Methods: The clinical and follow-up data of 13 children histopathologically diagnosed as EBV⁺LPD in the Department of Infectious Disease of Beijing Children's Hospital between January 2011 and December 2016 were summarized. Results: Of the 13 patients, 5 were males and 8 females. The median age of disease onset was 6.0 years (range 1.3 to 15.0 years). The median duration between disease onset and diagnosis was 3 months (range 1 to 24 months). All the 13 patients had fever, 9 cases had hepatosplenomegaly and lymphoadenopathy, 4 cases had only lymphoadenopathy, 7 cases had reduced peripheral blood cells, 7 cases had lung involvement, 3 cases had central nervous system involvement, 3 cases had cardiac involvement, 3 cases had intestinal involvement, 2 cases had skin involvement and 1 case had abdominal mass. All the 13 patients underwent whole blood EBV-DNA PCR examination and the copies ranged from 1×10⁸/L to 1×10¹¹/L. Pathology of lymph node confirmed 6 cases, skin pathology confirmed 2 cases, lung pathology, ileum mucosa pathology, liver pathology, abdominal mass pathology and bone marrow pathology confirmed 1 case each. Among 13 patients, 9 cases presented with EBV-positive T cell lymphoproliferative disease(EBV⁺ T-LPD), 2 cases with hydroa vacciniforme (HV) and 2 cases with EBV-positive diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (EBV⁺ DLBCL) . All the patients were followed up for 2 days to 65 months after discharge. Among 9 cases of EBV⁺T-LPD, 1 case died in a short time, 1 case died after evolved to T-cell lymphoma, 2 cases recovered after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation, 1 case recovered after the chemotherapy of hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis(HLH) 2004 protocol and 4 cases were stable now. Of 2 cases of HV patients, 1 case died after evolved to HV like lymphoma and the other still have symptoms. Among 2 cases of EBV⁺ DLBCL, 1 case died shortly after discharge and the other was still stable after chemotherapy. Conclusions Chronic recurrent fever, lymphadenopathy and hepatosplenomegaly are the most common clinical manifestations in children with EBV⁺LPD. Involvement of lung, central nervous system, intestinal tract, skin and other organs are also involved frequently. For children with chronic fever of unknown cause and accompanied by lymphadenopathy and (or) hepatosplenomegaly, EBV ⁺ LPD should be considered highly when the whole blood EBV-DNA load continues to increase significantly, early biopsy of the proliferative lesion should be performed to make a definite diagnosis. The prognosis of EBV ⁺ LPD is poor, and some evolve to lymphoma, hematopoietic stem cell transplantation is an effective way to treat this disease.

Objective To analyze the effect of self efficiency,social support and coping style on the psychological resilience.Methods A total of 386 patients with cerebral infarction in a grade 3A hospital of Tangshan City were served as the subjects.The resilience scale,self efficiency scale,social support scale and medical coping questionnaire were taken as the survey tools.The Pearson correlation analysis,multiple linear regression model and structure equation model(SEM) were applied.Results The resilience score was (59.72 ±12.17) points,the resilience was positively correlated with the self efficiency,social support,facing coping style and avoidance coping style(P＜0.01),and negatively correlated with the surrender coping style(P＜0.01).The total efficiency coefficients of self efficiency sensation,subjective support,facing coping style and surrender coping style for affecting the resilience were 0.720,0.264,0.121 and-0.092 respectively.Conclusion Self efficiency,social support and coping style have significant influences on the psychological resilience.

Objective To summarize the clinical features of histiocytic necrotizing lymphadenitis (HNL) and the lesion of central neural system in children.Methods Data of the 4 cases in Beijing Children's Hospital from January 2009 to December 2014 were reviewed and analyzed,as well as other files of 12 patients from PubMed,CNKI,etc.Results All 4 patients mentioned above started from fever and lymphadenopathy,3 cases had headache,2 cases of them experienced altered mental status,and 1 case had cclampsia.The findings of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) test was similar to viral encephalitis;2 cases had normal magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) result;1 case with MRI test indicated brain white matter diseases with extensive intracerebral hemorrhage,and 1 case had small range of encephalomalacia in left cerebral hemisphere and cerebral dura mater.Through CSF examination,2 cases were positive to Epstein-Barr viral capsid antigen (EBV-VCA)-IgM,while the 2 other cases had no positive trace of EBV-VCA-IgM.Lymph node biopsy was in accordance with HNL typical changes,1 case was positive for Epstein-Barr virus encoded RNA (EBER).Twelve cases in previous literatures were diagnosed as HNL by lymph node biopsy,and their clinical features of central nervous system were headache and altered mental status.There was no change in pathogen.It is also found that the cases in which CSF was performed had shown being negative.CT/MRI image descriptions involved in temporosphenoid lobe,hippocampus,caudate lobe,leptomeninges,etc.Conclusions HNL can be complicated with lesions of the central nervous system,characterized by aseptic meningitis,encephalitis,etc.The prognosis of most cases is good,a few can have neurological sequelae.HNL may relapse,so long-term follow-up is ne-cessary.Epstein-Barr virus in HNL and lesion of central nervous system mechanism still needs further research.

Post traumatic epilepsy(PTE)refers to the epileptic seizures after traumatic brain injury. Or-ganic damage can be found by imaging examination, and abnormal electroencephalogram can be detected via electroencephalogram examination which has the similar location of the brain injury. PTE has the characteristics of low incidence, absence of case reports, and easy to exaggerate the state of illness, which add difficulties to the forensic identification. This paper reviews the status of epidemiology, patho-genesis, clinical treatment and forensic identification for PTE.
