The process of diabetic wound healing is highly complex， and the persistence of non-healing wounds is closely associated with sustained oxidative stress in the body . Traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） demonstrates unique therapeutic advantages in promoting diabetic wound repair by modulating oxidative stress through multiple targets and pathways. This article presents a systematic review of the mechanism of TCM regulating oxidative stress to promote diabetic wound healing. It has been found that TCM monomers （such as rutin， baicalin， lonicerin， and curcumin）， extracts （including aqueous extract of Gynura divaricata ， extract of Polygonatum kingianum ， extract of Ginkgo biloba leaves， etc）， and compound formulations （such as Badu shengji powder， Danggui sini decoction， Compound ANBP， etc） can effectively alleviate oxidative stress-induced damage in diabetic wounds by modulating related signaling pathways， including nuclear factor-erythroid 2-related factor 2， nuclear factor κB，advanced glycation end products （AGEs）/receptors of AGEs， and silencing information regulatory factor 1. The underlying mechanisms are mainly manifested as： activating the antioxidant defense system， inhibiting inflammatory response， and improving mitochondrial function， thereby synergistically promoting wound healing.

ObjectiveTo compare the clinical features of patients with hepatitis B virus （HBV）-related early-onset liver cancer and those with late-onset liver cancer， to assess the severity of the disease， and to provide a theoretical basis for the early diagnosis and treatment of liver cancer. MethodsA retrospective analysis was performed for 695 patients who were diagnosed with HBV-related liver cancer for the first time in Guangzhou Eighth People’s Hospital， Guangzhou Medical University， from January 2019 to August 2023， among whom 93 had early-onset liver cancer （defined as an age of50 years for female patients and40 years for male patients） and 602 had late-onset liver cancer （defined as an age of ≥50 years for female patients and ≥40 years for male patients）. Related clinical data were collected， including demographic data， clinical symptoms at initial diagnosis， comorbidities， smoking history， drinking history， family history， routine blood test results， biochemical parameters of liver function， serum alpha-fetoprotein（AFP）， virological indicators， coagulation function， and imaging findings. The pan-inflammatory indices neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio （NLR）， platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio （PLR）， and lymphocyte-to-monocyte ratio （LMR） were calculated， as well as FIB-4 index， aspartate aminotransferase-to-platelet ratio index （APRI）， S index， Model for End-Stage Liver Disease （MELD） score， Child-Turcotte-Pugh （CTP） score， albumin-bilirubin （AIBL） grade， and Barcelona Clinic Liver Cancer （BCLC） stage. The independent-samples t test was used for comparison of normally distributed continuous data between two groups， and the Wilcoxon rank-sum test was used for comparison of non-normally distributed continuous data between two groups； the chi-square test or Fisher’s exact test were used for comparison of categorical data between two groups. ResultsThere were significant differences between the two groups in the proportion of male patients and the incidence rates of diabetes， hypertension， and fatty liver disease （χ²=6.357， 15.230， 11.467， and 14.204， all P0.05）， and compared with the late-onset liver cancer group， the early-onset liver cancer group had a significantly higher proportion of patients progressing to liver cancer without underlying cirrhosis （χ²=24.657， P0.001） and a significantly higher proportion of patients with advanced BCLC stage （χ²=6.172， P=0.046）. For the overall population， the most common clinical symptoms included abdominal distension， abdominal pain， poor appetite， weakness， a reduction in body weight， edema of both lower limbs， jaundice， yellow urine， and nausea， and 55 patients （7.9%） had no obvious symptoms at the time of diagnosis and were found to have liver cancer by routine reexamination， physical examination suggesting an increase in AFP， or radiological examination indicating hepatic space-occupying lesion； compared with the late-onset liver cancer group， the patients in the early-onset liver cancer group were more likely to have the symptoms of abdominal distension， abdominal pain， and jaundice （all P0.05）. Compared with the late-onset liver cancer group， the early-onset liver cancer group had a significantly larger tumor diameter （Z=2.845， P=0.034）， with higher prevalence rates of multiple tumors and intrahepatic， perihepatic， or distant metastasis （χ²=5.889 and 4.079， both P0.05）， and there were significant differences between the two groups in tumor location and size （χ²=3.948 and 11.317， both P0.05）. Compared with the late-onset liver cancer group， the early-onset liver cancer group had significantly lower FIB-4 index， proportion of patients with HBsAg ≤1 500 IU/mL， and levels of LMR and Cr （all P0.05）， as well as significantly higher positive rate of HBeAg and levels of log₁₀ HBV DNA， AFP， WBC， Hb， PLT， NLR， PLR， TBil， ALT， Alb， and TC （all P0.05）. ConclusionCompared with late-onset liver cancer， patients with early-onset liver cancer tend to develop liver cancer without liver cirrhosis and have multiple tumors， obvious clinical symptoms， and advanced BCLC stage， which indicates a poor prognosis.

Objective: To explore the relationship between sleep characteristics, physical activity patterns, with depressive and anxiety symptoms in college students, so as to provide reference for student mental health promotion. Methods: From September to November 2023, a convenience sampling method was used to select 7 954 college students aged 18-22 years from 9 universities in Shanghai, Hubei, and Jiangxi. Assessments were conducted using the International Physical Activity Questionnaire Short-Form (IPAQ-SF), Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9), Generalized Anxiety Disorder Scale-7 (GAD-7), and Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) to evaluate physical activity, depressive and anxiety symptoms, and sleep quality, respectively. Logistic regression analysis was employed to explore the impact of sleep characteristics and physical activity patterns on depressive and anxiety symptoms and their comorbidity among college students. Results: The detection rates for depressive symptoms, anxiety symptoms, and comorbid depression and anxiety symptoms were 25.67%, 35.39%, and 23.15%, respectively. Factors such as gender, grade, household registration, parental education level, annual family income, family structure, and dietary habits were all associated with the detection rates of depressive and anxiety symptoms and their comorbidity (χ2=4.41-118.39, P<0.05). Physical activity patterns, sleep duration, sleep quality, and sleepwake characteristics were also associated with the occurrence of depressive and anxiety symptoms and their comorbidity (χ2=9.66-627.70, P<0.05). Logistic regression analysis showed that college students who stayed up late and slept less than 7 had the highest risk of depressive and anxiety symptoms and their comorbidity (OR=1.93, 1.85, 1.88, P<0.05). Compared to regular physical activity patterns, insufficient physical activity patterns were associated with an increased risk of depressive and anxiety symptoms (all OR=1.18, P<0.05). Further stratified analysis results showed that the risk of depression, anxiety and their comorbidity increased in college students who stayed up late and slept less than 7 h, went to bed before midnight and slept less than 7 h, or went to bed before midnight and slept more than 7 h but did not have sufficient physical activity (P<0.05). Conclusions Sleep characteristics and physical activity patterns significantly affect depressive and anxiety symptoms in college students. Universities should strengthen sleep management and implement flexible physical activity interventions to help students establish healthy lifestyles.

Objective:To investigate the impact of tumor origin (ventral pancreatic origin and dorsal pancreatic origin) on prognosis in patients with pancreatic head cancer.Methods:A retrospective analysis was performed on the clinical data of 150 patients with pancreatic head cancer who received surgical treatment at the First Affiliated Hospital of the Naval Medical University from October 2014 to December 2017. Among these patients, 92 were male and 58 were female, aged (61.2±8.8) years. The 150 patients were divided into two groups based on tumor origin: the ventral pancreatic cancer group ( n=72) and the dorsal pancreatic cancer group ( n=78). A comparative analysis of clinical, pathological, and imaging charac-teristics was conducted between the two groups. Univariate and multivariable Cox proportional hazards models were used to analyze the association between pancreatic head cancer origin and overall survival (OS). Results:Patients with pancreatic head carcinoma arising from the ventral and dorsal pancreas accounted for 48%(72/150) and 52%(78/150) of the study cohort, respectively. Pancreatic head carcinoma arising from the dorsal pancreas were more likely to show pathological features of pancreatic parenchymal atrophy [73.1%(57/78) vs. 47.2%(34/72), χ2=10.49, P=0.001] and pancreatitis [44.9%(35/78) vs. 29.2%(21/72), χ2=3.95, P=0.047]. In contrast, patients with pancreatic head carcinoma arising from the ventral pancreas was more frequently associated with contact with the superior mesenteric artery [25.0%(18/72) vs. 1.3%(1/78), χ2=19.04, P<0.001], perineural invasion [100%(72/72) vs. 88.5%(69/78), χ2=8.84, P=0.003], and positive surgical margins [15.3%(11/72) vs. 2.6%(2/78), χ2=7.65, P=0.006], with all differences statistically significant. The ventral pancreatic cancer group demonstrated cumulative survival rates of 33.2% and 0 at 1-year and 2-year postoperative intervals, respectively, while the dorsal pancreatic cancer group exhibited rates of 56.7% and 24.8% at the corresponding timepoints. Comparison of Kaplan-Meier survival curves between the two groups showed a statistically significant difference ( χ2=6.00, P=0.014). Multivariable Cox proportional hazards analysis identified dorsal pancreatic origin pancreatic head cancer as an independent predictor of increased mortality risk compared to ventral origin tumors ( HR=2.75, 95% CI: 1.52-4.98, P=0.001). Conclusion:The embryonic origin of pancreatic head cancer determines its clinical, pathological, and imaging heterogeneity, and pancreatic head cancer arising from the ventral pancreas demonstrates significantly worse prognostic outcomes compared to dorsal pancreatic origin.

Objective:To investigate factors influencing frequent episodes (≥ 4 episodes within 1 year) in children with moderate-to-severe atopic dermatitis (AD) in China.Methods:A national multicenter cross-sectional study was conducted. Patients under the age of 18 years diagnosed with moderate-to-severe AD were enrolled at dermatology clinics in 18 medical institutions across 12 provinces and municipalities in China between June 12 and August 8, 2023. At the time of the visit, their guardians completed a structured questionnaire covering demographic characteristics, clinical features of AD, personal and family history, factors associated with frequent episodes of moderate-to-severe AD, compliance with treatment, and disease awareness. Statistical analyses included t tests, one-way analysis of variance, rank-sum tests, and chi-square tests, with multiple-response analysis applied for multiple-choice questions. Results:A total of 965 valid questionnaires were collected, and 965 children with moderate-to-severe AD were included. Among them, there were 531 males and 434 females, 678 (70.3%) were aged 2 - < 12 years, 837 (86.7%) were from urban areas, the age at onset was 2.47 ± 3.03 years, and the median frequency of AD episodes in the past year was 4 times. These children were divided into 2 groups based on the median episode frequency: < 4-episode group (439 cases, 45.5%) and ≥ 4-episode group (526 cases, 54.5%). Compared with the < 4-episode group, children in the ≥ 4-episode group showed younger ages at onset (2.22 ± 2.98 years vs. 2.76 ± 3.06 years, P = 0.006) and higher proportions of patients with comorbid allergic diseases in both the children themselves (82.9% [436/526] vs. 69.7% [306/439], χ2 = 23.42, P < 0.001) and their relatives (66.0% [347/526] vs. 57.4% [252/439], χ2 = 7.46, P = 0.006). Children in the ≥ 4- episode group also had higher monthly usage of moisturizers (150 [30, 300] g vs. 60 [6, 200] g) and daily frequency of moisturizer use, greater disease awareness, but more severe fear of medication use (all P < 0.05). The region and the human development index level were both significantly associated with the episode frequency (both P < 0.001), with the highest proportion of children from South China in the ≥ 4- episode group (36.3%, 191/526). Children in the ≥ 4-episode group also had a longer duration of topical glucocorticoid use than those in the < 4-episode group ( Z = -2.21, P = 0.027). External triggers associated with AD episodes mainly included heat exposure (50.36%, 486/965), hot water bathing (40.73%, 393/965), seafood (23.52%, 227/965), and dust mites (33.37%, 322/965) . Conclusion:In children with moderate-to-severe AD in China, factors influencing frequent episodes may include residence in southern or economically developed regions, earlier age at onset, having a personal or family history of allergic diseases, and fear of medication use.

Objective:The aim was to analyze key indicators for the diagnosis and treatment of chronic hepatitis B（CHB），including virus detection rate，standardized treatment rate，and loss to follow-up rate，in order to provide a basis for optimizing diagnosis and treatment plans，improve the diagnosis and treatment level of CHB，and improve patient prognosis.Methods:Patients with CHB admitted to the Guangzhou Eighth People′s Hospital Affiliated to Guangzhou Medical University from January 2024 to January 2025 were enrolled. The datas were collected and organized using Excel. Statistical analysis was conducted using SPSS 26.0 software，with a focus on evaluating core indicators such as virus detection rate，standardized treatment rate，and loss to follow-up rate.Results:The positive rate of hepatitis B surface antigen（HBsAg）in non-specific patients was 28.95%，the antiviral treatment rate in specialized patients was 90.78%，and the standardized antiviral drug conversion treatment rate in low-level viremia（LLV）patients was 61.45%. The standardized antiviral drug conversion treatment rates for high-risk patients with combined kidney/bone injuries were 72.75% and 74.40%，respectively. The overall dropout rate was 10.47%，with a dropout rate of 13.80% for LLV patients.Conclusions:The antiviral treatment coverage rates in CHB patients were over 90%，but in certain groups（such as LLV patients and those with kidney or bone injuries），the standardized treatment rates were still low and loss to follow-up rates were high，suggesting the need to improve HBV screening，treatment for special populations，and patient adherence.

Objective:To evaluate the efficacy of dexmedetomidine-scalp nerve block (SNB) combined with general anesthesia in the patients with acute traumatic brain injury (TBI) undergoing craniotomy.Methods:In this randomized controlled trial, 74 American Society of Anesthesiologists Physical Status classification Ⅰ-Ⅲ patients of either sex with acute TBI, aged 30-78 yr, with body mass index of 18-30 kg/m 2, underwent craniotomy for hematoma evacuation combined with decompressive craniectomy at the Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital of Kunshan from January to December 2024, of the Glasgow Coma Scale score 8-12, were selected and divided into 2 groups ( n=37 each) using a random number table method: dexmedetomidine combined with ultrasound-guided SNB group (DS group) and ultrasound-guided SNB group (S group). Before anesthesia, dexmedetomidine was infused as a loading dose of 1 μg/kg over 10 min followed by an infusion of 0.3 μg·kg -1·h -1 until the end of operation. Ultrasound-guided SNB was performed after completion of intubation in both groups. The consumption of intraoperative fentanyl, propofol and remifentanil and the usage of vasoactive drugs were recorded. Before surgery (T 0), at 1 h after the start of surgery (T 1) and at the end of surgery (T 2), blood samples from the jugular bulbar and radial artery were collected, the jugular venous oxygen saturation was recorded, the arteriovenous oxygen content and cerebral oxygen uptake rate were calculated, and the occurrence of postoperative complications was also recorded. Results:Compared with group S, the consumption of fentanyl, propofol and remifentanil was significantly reduced, the usage rate of vasoactive drugs was decreased, the arteriovenous oxygen content and cerebral oxygen uptake rate were decreased at T 1 and T 2, the jugular venous oxygen saturation was increased, and the incidence of postoperative agitation was decreased in group DS ( P<0.05). Conclusions:Dexmedetomidine-SNB combined with general anesthesia can optimize the analgesic effect, improve cerebral oxygen supply and demand, reduce the occurrence of postoperative agitation when used in patients with acute TBI undergoing craniotomy.

Objective:A novel grass-root community screening and management model of hepatitis B was developed in order to improve the diagnosis and treatment rate of hepatitis B in Guangzhou city.Methods:A three-tier collaborative framework［tertiary hospitals-center for disease control and prevention（CDC）-primary care clinics］implemented dual-track screening（fixed-site+mobile units）using rapid hepatitis B surface antigen（HBsAg）testing and structured surveys. Digital closed-loop management integrated screening，referral，and follow-up. Data were analyzed via SPSS 26.0.Results:Among 30 012 community-dwelling adults screened（Male∶Female=1∶1.68），overall HBsAg positive rate was 5.21%（1 565/30 012），peaking in the 50-59-year cohort（ χ2=271.80， P<0.001）. Hepatitis B knowledge awareness was critically low（39.24%）. Of 140 referred HBsAg-positive individuals，15 chronic carriers required no immediate antiviral therapy per guidelines. Treatment linkage surged from 32.8%（41/125）to 86.4%（108/125）post-intervention. aMAP hepatocellular carcinoma（HCC）risk stratification（n=82）revealed low（36.6%），intermediate（32.9%），and high-risk（30.5%）profiles. Conclusions:This coordinated，digitally-enhanced strategy significantly improved hepatitis B detection and treatment access. However，persistent knowledge gaps underscore the imperative for targeted community education and adherence support.

Objective:To develop a preoperative CT-based radiomics model integrating multidimensional features for the accurate prediction of TFE3-rearranged renal cell carcinoma（TFE3-rRCC）.Methods:This study retrospectively enrolled 865 pathologically confirmed renal cell carcinoma（RCC）patients in The First Affiliated Hospital of Naval Medical University from June 2013 to June 2023，including 60 cases of TFE3-rRCC and 805 cases of non-TFE3 RCC（comprising clear cell RCC，papillary RCC，and chromophobe RCC）. Among them，627 were male and 238 were female，with a mean age of（54.1 ± 12.7）years（range：14?82 years）. The median maximum tumor diameter was 4.0（2.6，6.0）cm. Based on the chronological order of CT examinations，the patients were divided into training（ n=478），validation（ n=206），and test（ n=181）sets in an approximate 6∶2∶2 ratio. Using precontrast and corticomedullary phase CT images，we extracted peritumoral imaging features，habitat features，3D radiomic features，and 2.5D deep learning radiomic features. A deep learning radiomics score（DLR-SCORE）prediction model was constructed using least absolute shrinkage and selection operator（LASSO）regression. The diagnostic performance of the model was evaluated by receiver operating characteristic（ROC）curve analysis，with the area under the curve（AUC）as the primary metric. Additionally，sensitivity，specificity，and accuracy were calculated based on the confusion matrix. Results:A total of 12 442 features were extracted from non-contrast and corticomedullary phase CT images，from which eight key features were selected to construct the DLR-SCORE model. The model demonstrated diagnostic accuracies for TFE3-rRCC of 98.5%（471/478）in the training set，81.6%（168/206）in the validation set，and 86.2%（156/181）in the test set. The AUC of ROC curve was 0.98（95% CI 0.96?1.00）in the training set，0.83（95% CI 0.71?0.94）in the validation set，and 0.88（95% CI 0.76?1.00）in the test set. In the test set，the DLR-SCORE model achieved a sensitivity of 88.9%（16/18）and a specificity of 85.9%（140/163）for detecting TFE3-rRCC. Conclusions:The DLR-SCORE model integrating multidimensional CT radiomics features demonstrated favorable predictive performance for TFE3-rRCC，offering a promising noninvasive tool to assist preoperative diagnosis.
