Objective: To understand the epidemiological characteristics and disease burden of influenza like illness (ILI) among student populations, so as to provide data support for policy formulation and optimal allocation of health resources. Methods: From January 2024 to February 2025, a questionnaire survey was conducted among parents of kindergarten, primary school, junior and senior high school students in 9 districts of Shenzhen, including Longhua, Futian, Bao an, Longgang, Luohu, Nanshan, Guangming, Pingshan and Yantian. Parents were asked to complete the questionnaire based on whether their children had fever, cough, vomiting, diarrhea, rash and other common symptoms in 2024. A total of 3 537 parents were investigated, and 444 ILI cases were included as study subjects. The epidemiological burden, including incidence rate of influenza, visitation rate, years lived with disability (YLDs) and economic burden (including direct economic burden, indirect economic burden and intangible burden) were analyzed. Results: The incidence rate of influenza among students in Shenzhen in 2024 was 12.55%. The ILI incidence rates in kindergarten, primary school, junior and senior high school were 14.01%, 11.69% and 5.23%, respectively, with a statistically significant difference ( χ 2= 45.20, P <0.01). The ILI consultation rate among students was 85.36%, and the consultation rates in kindergarten (87.36%) and primary school students (84.62%) were higher than those in junior and senior high school students ( 56.52 %) ( χ 2=16.47, P <0.01). A total of 78.88% of cases did not receive etiological detection.The median total economic burden per ILI case was 2 354.62 yuan, including direct medical costs of 300.00 yuan, direct non medical costs of 212.50 yuan, indirect costs of 1 000.00 yuan, and intangible burden of 500.00 yuan. Conclusions Schools are high risk environment for influenza, and younger students are a high risk group for ILI. The disease burden caused by student ILI remains substantial.

Objective To summarize the clinical characteristics and analyze prognostic factors of neuroblastoma (NB) in infants (≤12 months) at a single center. Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of infant patients (≤12 months) diagnosed with NB and treated between January 2014 and December 2022. Clinical features were analyzed, and comparisons between two sample rates were performed using the χ² test. Univariate prognostic analysis was conducted using the log-rank test, and survival outcomes were analyzed using the Kaplan-Meier method. Results A total of 42 infants (≤12 months) with NB were enrolled. Low-risk patients underwent surgical resection alone; intermediate-risk patients received surgery combined with chemotherapy with or without maintenance therapy; high-risk patients were treated with surgery and chemotherapy with or without maintenance therapy or radiotherapy. The 5-year event-free survival (EFS) rate was (92.7±4.9)%, and the 5-year overall survival rate was (95.2±3.6)%. Only two patients died because of tumor recurrence or progression. Univariate analysis identified MYCN amplification and the initial lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) level ≥ five times the upper limit of the normal were significantly associated with poor prognosis (5-year EFS: 33.3% vs. 97.4% and 60.0% vs. 97.3%, P<0.0001 and P=0.0035). Conclusion Infant NB has a favorable overall prognosis. MYCN amplification and markedly elevated initial LDH are associated with poor outcomes.

Acute lung injury （ALI） is a critical respiratory emergency caused by various non-cardiogenic factors， including severe pulmonary and extrapulmonary infections， lung contusion， and sepsis. Its pathological features are centered on alveolar-capillary barrier dysfunction， uncontrolled inflammatory responses， and impaired alveolar fluid clearance， manifesting as refractory hypoxemia and respiratory distress， with a poor clinical prognosis. Modern studies have revealed that mitochondrial dysfunction and glucose metabolic reprogramming in macrophages， characterized by hyperactivated glycolysis， drive pro-inflammatory polarization and represent a key mechanism leading to excessive inflammatory responses and disease progression in ALI. Therefore， targeting macrophage glycolysis may be a potential therapeutic strategy for ALI. The Plain Questions： Special Discussion on Channels and Vessels in Huangdi's Internal Classic states that "The spleen disseminates essence upward to the lungs". When the spleen fails in transport and transformation， the distribution of refined nutrients becomes disordered， resulting in the endogenous generation of turbid pathogens that obstruct the pulmonary collaterals， causing failure of lung dispersion and descent and leading to dyspneic reversal. This forms the dynamic pathological pattern of ''deficiency in the root with excess in the manifestation''， thereby proposing the core pathogenesis of ALI as ''spleen deficiency with transport dysfunction and turbid pathogens obstructing the lungs''. This process is intrinsically associated with the inflammatory cascade triggered by disordered macrophage glucose metabolism. Taking the theory of ''spleen failing to disperse essence'' as the entry point， the present study systematically elucidates the progressive pathological mechanism of "energy metabolism disorder-cytokine storm'' in ALI from the perspectives of the ''spleen deficiency-turbid obstruction'' pathogenesis and macrophage glycolysis-pro-inflammatory polarization. In addition， we summarize Chinese medicine compound formulas and monomeric components that ''restore spleen transport and eliminate turbid pathogens''， and explore their potential mechanisms in the treatment of ALI by regulating macrophage metabolic phenotypes to improve the state of ''spleen failing to disperse essence''. This provides a molecular basis for elucidating the ''spleen-lung'' energy metabolism dialogue， deepens understanding of the multi-target regulatory mechanisms of herbal prescriptions， and promotes the deep integration of classical theory with modern medicine.

Objective: To analyze the association between fine particulate matter (PM2.5) exposure in the air and dyslipidemia among primary school students, in order to provide the evidencebased support for the prevention and control of chronic diseases in children. Methods: The random sampling method was used to select 625 students from two primary schools in Anhui Province and Tianjin City from May to June 2024. Based on the home address, the annual average exposure levels of PM2.5 were obtained in 3 years before investigation, 2 years before investigation, and the past year before investigation. Fasting blood samples were collected for the detection of total cholesterol, triglycerides (TG), highdensity lipoprotein cholesterol and lowdensity lipoprotein cholesterol. Linear regression modeling was used to analyze the association between PM2.5 exposure and dyslipidemia among primary school students. Results: The rate of dyslipidemia among primary school students was 14.72% in the present study. The results of linear regression analysis showed that the TG increased by 0.019(95%CI=0.012-0.025)，0.023(95%CI=0.016-0.030) and 0.021(95%CI=0.014-0.027) mmol/L for every 1 μg/m3 increase of PM2.5 in the past year before investigation, 2 years before investigation and 3 years before investigation respectively (P<0.05). The results of binary Logisitic analysis showed that the risks of dyslipidemia in primary school students were positively correlated with PM2.5 mass concentration in the past year before investigation, 2 years before investigation, and 3 years before investigation [OR(95%CI)=1.06(1.02-1.11), 1.06(1.01-1.12), 1.06(1.01-1.11), P<0.05]. Conclusions PM2.5 exposure is associated with increased risk of dyslipidemia among primary school students. To protect the health of primary school students, effective measures should be taken to improve air quality.

Objective To investigate the correlation between spread through air space (STAS) of sub-centimeter non-small cell lung cancer and clinical characteristics and radiological features, constructing a nomogram risk prediction model for STAS to provide a reference for the preoperative planning of sub-centimeter non-small cell lung cancer patients. Methods The data of patients with sub-centimeter non-small cell lung cancer who underwent surgical treatment in Nanjing Drum Tower Hospital from January 2022 to October 2023 were retrospectively collected. According to the pathological diagnosis of whether the tumor was accompanied with STAS, they were divided into a STAS positive group and a STAS negative group. The clinical and radiological data of the two groups were collected for univariate logistic regression analysis, and the variables with statistical differences were included in the multivariate analysis. Finally, independent risk factors for STAS were screened out and a nomogram model was constructed. The sensitivity and specificity were calculated based on the Youden index, and area under the curve (AUC), calibration plots and decision curve analysis (DCA) were used to evaluate the performance of the model. Results A total of 112 patients were collected, which included 17 patients in the STAS positive group, consisting of 11 males and 6 females, with a mean age of (59.0±10.3) years. The STAS negative group included 95 patients, with 30 males and 65 females, and a mean age of (56.8±10.3) years. Univariate logistic regression analysis showed that male, anti-GAGE7 antibody positive, mean CT value and spiculation were associated with the occurrence of STAS (P＜0.05). Multivariate regression analysis showed that associations between STAS and male (OR=5.974, 95%CI 1.495 to 23.872), anti-GAGE7 antibody positive (OR=11.760, 95%CI 1.619 to 85.408) and mean CT value (OR=1.008, 95%CI 1.004 to 1.013) were still significant (P＜0.05), while the association between STAS and spiculation was not significant anymore (P=0.438). Based on the above three independent predictors, a nomogram model of STAS in sub-centimeter non-small cell lung cancer was constructed. The AUC value of the model was 0.890, the sensitivity was 76.5%, and the specificity was 91.6%. The calibration curve was well fitted, suggesting that the model had a good prediction efficiency for STAS. The DCA plot showed that the model had a good clinically utility. Conclusion Male, anti-GAGE7 antibody positive and mean CT value are independent predictors of STAS positivity of sub-centimeter non-small cell lung cancer, and the nomogram model established in this study has a good predictive value and provides reference for preoperative planning of patients.

Objective:To evaluate the clinical efficacy of intervertebral disc radiofrequency(RF)ablation combined with dorsal medial branch(DMB)neurotomy in elderly patients suffering from chronic low back pain.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on patients aged 60 years and older with chronic low back pain admitted to Beijing Hospital from March 2023 to September 2024.The combined treatment group underwent intervertebral disc radiofrequency ablation combined with radiofrequency treatment of the dorsal medial branch of the spinal nerve.The single treatment group underwent intervertebral disc radiofrequency ablation alone.Pain visual analogue scale(VAS)scores were assessed before treatment and on the first day, 3 months, and 6 months post-treatment.The Oswestry Disability Index(ODI)and Barthel Index were evaluated before treatment and at 3 months and 6 months post-treatment.Clinical efficacy was compared between the two groups.Results:A total of 115 elderly patients with chronic low back pain were enrolled, aged 61 to 72 years(mean 66.5 ± 5.6 years), with 44 males.The combined therapy group consisted of 71 patients, and the monotherapy group consisted of 44 patients.All patients were followed up continuously for 6 months.At all-time points post-treatment, the VAS scores in the combined therapy group were significantly lower than those in the monotherapy group( t=-4.887, -10.095, -7.687, all P<0.05); at 3 and 6 months post-treatment, the combined therapy group showed significantly greater improvements in ODI( t=-3.645, -9.451, both P<0.001)Barthel Index improvement were significantly greater than those in the monotherapy group( t=6.578, 8.530, both P<0.001); the overall good-to-excellent rate in the combined therapy group was 88.7%, higher than the 72.7% in the monotherapy group( χ2=4.85, P<0.05). Conclusions:Combined disc RF ablation and DMB neurotomy provide superior pain relief, functional recovery, and improvement in daily activities compared to single disc ablation in elderly patients with CLBP.This minimally invasive approach represents a safe and effective therapeutic strategy for managing chronic low back pain in the geriatric population.

Objective:To investigate the accuracy and clinical utility of a newly designed acetabular bone defect classification system based on the ischial-gluteal pillar in assessing the severity of acetabular bone defects and guiding hip revision surgery.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on 474 patients who underwent hip revision surgery for prosthetic loosening after total hip arthroplasty at our institution from January 2010 to December 2020, including 296 males and 178 females with a mean age of 70.4±8.9 years (range: 52-86 years). The accuracy of our classification system in guiding surgical procedures was evaluated by comparing preoperative defect classifications with intraoperative findings. Clinical outcomes were evaluated using preoperative and final follow-up Harris hip scores (HHS) and Oxford hip scores (OHS), as well as the incidence of complications.Results:Preoperative classifications included 143 Type I, 192 Type II (Type IIa: 86 cases, Type IIb: 59 cases, Type IIc: 47 cases), 93 Type III (Type IIIa: 54 cases, Type IIIb: 27 cases, Type IIIc: 12 cases), and 46 Type IV cases (Type IVa: 32 cases, Type IVb: 9 cases, Type IVc: 5 cases). Compared with intraoperative findings, classification accuracy was 99.3% for Type I (1 errors), 98.4% for Type II (3 errors), 97.8% for Type III (2 errors), and 97.8% for Type IV (1 misclassified as Type III). The mean follow-up was 5.8±4.4 years (range: 2-12 years). At final follow-up, mean HHS improved from 36.65±10.27 to 91.36±7.53, and mean OHS increased from 11.35±4.36 to 44.6±5.27 with significant difference ( P<0.001). Complications included one Type IV periprosthetic infection, one Type II hip dislocation, one Type I and two Type IV re-revisions (due to femoral loosening or graft resorption), one Type II and one Type III death unrelated to surgery, and one Type I postoperative thigh hematoma. No neurovascular injuries occurred. Conclusions:This novel 3D acetabular bone defect classification system, based on ischial-gluteal pillar integrity, provides accurate preoperative assessment and effectively guides surgical planning. Its application demonstrates favorable mid-term outcomes in hip revision surgery.

Microorganisms are an indispensable part of nature,they play an important role in the material cycle.With the continuous development of microbial genomics research,we have a deeper understanding of the uncultured microorganisms:the current culture of microorganisms accounted for less than 3%of the total number of natural microorganisms,even 0.5%.The low cultivability of microorganisms is still a major obstacle to microbial research and application.In recent years,the world for the uncultured microorganisms,continuous research,in situ culture technology,high throughput separation culture and other new methods.But at present,these new methods still exist in the cultivation of microorganisms are not comprehensive,for the abundance of the requirements and other shortcomings,need to continue to practice and improvement.This paper for the necessity of pure culture of microorganisms,the importance of the nearly 30 years of global pure culture of microorganisms,the current research shortcomings and future research directions have been made a preliminary summary and analysis.

Objective To investigate the risk factors and significance of catheter dislocationat the venipuncture site after the implantation of a totally implantable venous access port(TIVAP)in patients with breast cancer.Methods From January 2019 to September 2021,1003 patients who underwent vein approach transfusion port implantation were divided into the catheter dislocation group(7 cases)and the non-catheter dislocation group(996 cases).Risk factors for post operative recurrence of catheter dislocationwere analyzed through univariate analysis and logistic regression analysis.Results The results of the univariate analysis indicated that the incidence of catheter dislocation in the group with age ≥ 60 years,axillary vein approach,and left-side puncture was higher than that in the control group,and the difference was statistically significant(P＜0.05).The BMI of the dislocation group[(27.06±2.16)kg/m2]was higher than that of the non-dislocation group[(25.09±3.33)kg/m2],there was a statistically significant difference between the two groups(P=0.05).The multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that the catheterization approach and puncture side had no significant effect on catheter dislocation(P＞0.05);high BMI and age ≥ 60 years were independent risk factors for catheter dislocation complications(P＜0.05).Conclusion Axillary vein approach transfusion port implantation is relatively safe and reliable.Age ≥ 60years old and high BMI are independent risk factors affecting the complication of catheter dislodgement.

BACKGROUND:Although aromatase inhibitors significantly improve the clinical benefit of patients with hormone receptor-positive breast cancer,its associated adverse event-osteoporosis seriously affects the quality of life of patients.Huangqi Bushen Huoxue Decoction can effectively prevent the occurrence of aromatase inhibitor-induced osteoporosis,but its mechanism of action is unclear.OBJECTIVE:To investigate the effects of Huangqi Bushen Huoxue Decoction on osteoclast activity in a mouse model of osteoporosis induced by aromatase inhibitors and relevant mechanisms.METHODS:Sixty 8-week-old female C57BL/6J mice were randomly divided into sham operation group,model group,high-,medium-and low-dose Huangqi Bushen Huoxue Decoction,and positive control group,with 10 mice in each group.Bilateral ovaries were removed to establish postmenopausal animal models in all the groups except for the sham operation group.After 1 week of recovery,letrozole was injected subcutaneously to establish postmenopausal osteoporosis models via subcutaneous injection of letrozole(an aromatase inhibitor).The high-,medium-and low-dose Huangqi Bushen Huoxue Decoction groups were intragastrically given 19.24,9.62 and 4.81 g/kg/d Huangqi Bushen Huoxue Decoction(once a day),respectively.The positive control group was given alendronate 5mg/kg once a week.After 3 months of administration,Micro-CT was used to detect tibial bone mineral density and bone microstructure.Hematoxylin-eosin staining and tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase staining of the femur were performed.Immunohistochemistry was used to detect the protein expression of receptor activator of nuclear factor-κB ligand and osteoprotectin in the femur.ELISA was used to detect the serum levels of carboxyterminal cross-linked telopeptides of type I collagen and tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase 5b.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)Compared with the sham operation group,the model group showed a significant decrease in bone mineral density,sparse and fractured trabecular morphology,and a significant increase in serum levels of carboxyterminal cross-linked telopeptides of type I collagen and tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase 5b,indicating that the model of aromatase inhibitor-induced osteoporosis was successfully constructed.(2)Compared with the model group,the high-,medium-,and low-dose Huangqi Bushen Huoxue Decoction groups showed significant improvement in bone mineral density and bone microstructure,thickening and densification of trabecular morphology,significantly decreased serum levels of carboxyterminal cross-linked telopeptides of type I collagen and tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase 5b,a decrease in the number of osteoclasts and the expression of receptor activator of nuclear factor-κB ligand proteins,and an increase in the expression of osteoprotegerin.To conclude,Huangqi Bushen Huoxue Decoction may regulate the receptor activator of nuclear factor-κB ligand/receptor activator of nuclear factor-κB/osteoprotegerin signaling pathway,inhibit osteoclast activity,improve trabecular morphology and bone microstructure,and increase bone mineral density,thus preventing the occurrence and development of aromatase inhibitor-induced osteoporosis.
