This paper introduces a real-world cohort research model for community-acquired pneumonia （CAP） based on the Jiangsu Traditional Chinese Medicine （TCM） Dominant Diseases Diagnosis and Treatment Data Platform. Firstly， data cleaning is performed by standardizing diagnosis， symptoms， treatment and imaging， intelligently extracting unstructured information， and cleaning and constructing a standardized database. Secondly， for cohort establishment， CAP patients across the province are screened in accordance with CAP diagnostic criteria to build a high-quality disease-specific cohort. Lastly， in terms of protocol design， the characteristics of TCM research and the CAP disease profile are considered to determine appropriate inclusion and exclusion criteria， estimate sample size， define interventions， outcomes and economic evaluations， providing a reference for real-world TCM research on CAP.

BackgroundExecutive function deficits constitute a core problem in attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder （ADHD）. Previous assessments of executive function in children with ADHD have predominantly relied on performance-based neuropsychological tests conducted in laboratory settings， though their predictive validity for real-world functional outcomes remains limited. In contrast， ecological executive function emphasizes the evaluation of complex task management in naturalistic contexts， demonstrating a stronger predictive power for functional adaptation in daily living among children with ADHD， such as multitasking performance， social interactions and so on. However， current empirical evidence regarding ecological executive function in this population remains insufficient. ObjectiveTo investigate the executive function characteristics of children with ADHD from an ecological perspective， thereby providing references for developing targeted interventions. MethodsA case control study was conducted， including 277 ADHD children who met the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders， fourth edition （DSM-IV） criteria and were selected at the Child Health Care and Mental Health Center of Shenzhen Children's Hospital from June 2017 to December 2020， as well as 98 healthy controls were recruited from primary and secondary schools in Shenzhen. All participants were assessed using Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children， fourth edition （WISC-IV） and Behavior Rating Inventory of Executive Function （BRIEF）. Differences in WISC-IV and BRIEF scores were compared between ADHD group and control groups， followed by the comparison of BRIEF scores by gender and ADHD subtypes. ResultsAmong the 277 children with ADHD， 136 cases （49.10%） had predominantly inattentive type （ADHD-I）， 6 cases （2.17%） had predominantly hyperactive-impulsive type （ADHD-HI）， and 135 cases （48.73%） had combined type （ADHD-C）. ADHD group demonstrated significantly lower scores on both the WISC-IV total IQ and four index scores （verbal comprehension， perceptual reasoning， working memory and processing speed） than control group （t=3.698~9.335， P<0.01）. After controlling for WISC-IV total IQ as a covariate， the scores of each factor in the dimensions of behavioral regulation index （inhibition， shifting， emotional control） and metacognition index （task initiation， working memory， planning， monitoring and organization） were all higher in ADHD group than in control group， and the differences were statistically significant （F=46.563~290.475， P<0.01）. In terms of gender， no statistically significant difference was found in BRIEF composite scores （behavioral regulation index or metacognition index） of children with ADHD （t=0.105~1.190， P>0.05）. In terms of ADHD subtypes， children with ADHD-C reported significantly higher scores than those with ADHD-I on the scores of inhibition， emotional control， organization and monitoring in BRIEF （t=2.481~7.343， P<0.05 or 0.01）. ConclusionChildren with ADHD have multidimensional deficits in ecological executive function， which vary across different subtypes. ［Funded by Shenzhen Excellent Science and Technology Innovation Talent Training Project （number， RCYX20221008092849069）； the Sanming Project of Medicine in Shenzhen］

AIM:To analyze the expression of se-creted phosphoprotein 1(SPP1)and programmed cell death-ligand 1(PD-L1)in SMARCA4-deficient non-small cell lung cancer,and to provide a scientif-ic basis for the study of the follow-up treatment of this rare pathological type of lung cancer.METH-ODS:The clinical and pathological characteristics of 12 patients with this disease were analyzed retro-spectively,and the patients were divided into two groups of adenocarcinomas and poorly differentiat-ed carcinomas according to their morphological characteristics,and the relationship between the expression of SPP1 and PD-L1 was analyzed in the two groups.RESULTS:SPP1 expression was detect-ed in all patients and Its expression level was signif-icantly higher in the poorly differentiated carcino-ma group compared with the adenocarcinoma group(P=0.015);PD-L1 expression was found in 6/7 patients(5 cases were not measured),compared with the adenocarcinoma group,PD-L1 was also highly expressed in the poorly differentiated carci-noma group(P=0.048)and the PD-L1 difference be-tween the two groups suggested that the results were similar to those of SPP1.CONCLUSION:SMARCA4-deficient non-small cell lung cancer has high positive expression of SPP1 and PD-L1.It was more pronounced in patients with poorly differenti-ated carcinoma.There may be a positive correla-tion between SPP1 and PD-L1 expression in SMAR-CA4-deficient non-small cell lung cancer and the mechanism of the correlation needs to be further verified in subsequent studies.

Objective To observe the value of three-dimensional ultrasound combined with microvascular flow imaging for prenatal diagnosis of fetal intracranial anomalies.Methods Totally 118 fetuses with intracranial anomalies diagnosed through cranial MRI/induced labor specimen dissection who underwent prenatal ultrasound examination were retrospectively enrolled.Two-dimensional,three-dimensional ultrasound and microvascular flow imaging manifestations of fetal intracranial anomalies were observed,and the accuracy of three-dimensional ultrasound combined with microvascular flow imaging for prenatal diagnosis of fetal intracranial anomalies was analyzed.Results The accuracy of three-dimensional ultrasound combined with microvascular flow imaging for prenatal diagnosis of fetal intracranial anomalies was 93.22％(110/118),of isolated and non-isolated intracranial anomalies was 97.47％(77/79)and 84.62％(33/39),respectively.Six fetuses were missed diagnosis of malformations of cortical development(1 fetus of tuberous sclerosis,4 of abnormal morphology of the sulci gyrus and 1 of schizencephaly)and 1 fetus of intracranial softening lesion,while posterior fossa arachnoid cyst in 1 fetus was misdiagnosed as mega cisterna magna.Conclusion The accuracy of three-dimensional ultrasound combined with microvascular flow imaging for prenatal diagnosis of fetal intracranial anomalies was relatively high.

Objective To evaluate the effects of transcatheter aortic valve replacement(TAVR)on left ventricular reverse remodeling(LVRR)and outcomes in patients with mixed aortic valve disease(MAVD)and predominant aortic stenosis(AS).Methods Patients undergoing TAVR at our center between January 2020 and December 2022 were enrolled consecutively.Propensity score matching(PSM)(1∶1 ratio)was used to reduce selection bias.Transthoracic echocardiography(TTE)was used to monitor left ventricular ejection fraction(LVEF)and other structural parameters over time.The study outcome was a composite of cardiovascular death and rehospitalization due to cardiovascular causes.Linear mixed-effects models and logistic regression were utilized for comparing echocardiographic changes across groups and identifying independent risk factors for no-LVRR,respectively.Results After PSM,126 patients were included.MAVD group exhibited larger structural parameters(left ventricular end-systolic/end-diastolic diameter and volume,left ventricular mass index)and a lower left ventricular ejection fraction(LVEF)(all P＜0.05).However,more pronounced improvements in left ventricular structure and hemodynamics were observed during follow-up.Multivariate logistic regression analysis indicated that the left ventricular mass index(LVMI)was an independent predictor of left ventricular reverse remodeling(LVRR)after TAVR,whereas persistent moderate or greater mitral regurgitation(MR)and paravalvular leak(PVL)significantly reduced the incidence of LVRR.During a median follow-up period of 23 months,a total of 31 endpoint events occurred,and there was no statistically significant difference in long-term prognosis between the two groups(Log-rank P=0.330).Conclusions Compared to patients in the AS group,those in the MAVD group exhibited more severe left ventricular remodeling before TAVR.However,more significant LVRR was observed during postoperative follow-up.Additionally,the long-term prognosis was comparable between the two groups.

Abnormal lipid metabolism and renal ectopic lipid accumulation have been associated with the occurrence and development of kidney diseases,particularly in diabetic nephropathy.However,the drugs commonly used in clinic to treat hypercholesterolemia,such as statins,ezetimibe and proprotein convertase subtilisin/Kexin type 9(PCSK9)inhibitors,can effectively reduce the blood lipid level,but fail to delay the progress of kidney disease.In recent years,an increasing number of research studies have focused on the impact of free fat acids(FFA)metabolism on kidney function.The profiles and metabolism of fatty acids are altered in chronic kidney disease(CKD),and deregulated fatty acid metabolism contributes to further kidney damage.Furthermore,the role of FFA transporter in the progression of kidney diseases is gradually recognized.Therefore,this review summarizes the recent preclinical researches of fatty acid transporter fatty acid transport protein 2(FATP2)expressed in proximal renal tubular epithelial cells.

Objective To explore the influencing factors of early neurological deterioration(END)in patients with acute anterior circulation large-vessel occlusive mild stroke who were treated with medications alone within 72 h after onset.Methods Retrospective consecutive data were collected of patients with acute large-vessel occlusive mild stroke who presented to the Advanced Stroke Center of Linyi People's Hospital within 24 h of onset from January 2021 to December 2022.END was defined as an increase of ≥ 4 points in the National Institutes of Health stroke scale(N1HSS)score within 72 h after onset compared to the admission score.Patients were divided into the neurological deterioration group and the stable condition group(NIHSS score did not increase or increased by 1-3 points within 72 h after onset compared to the admission score).Baseline and clinical data of all patients were collected,including sex,age,cerebrovascular disease risk factors(hypertension,diabetes mellitus,hyperlipidemia,coronary heart disease,atrial fibrillation,smoking,alcohol consumption,stroke history),NIHSS score at admission,time from onset to admission,systolic blood pressure at admission,diastolic blood pressure at admission,laboratory test indicators at admission(blood glucose,glycosylated hemoglobin,homocysteine,total cholesterol,triglyceride,low-density lipoprotein cholesterol,high-density lipoprotein cholesterol,neutrophils,lymphocytes and neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio),responsible occlusion artery(internal carotid artery,middle cerebral artery,anterior cerebral artery),affected cerebral hemisphere,collateral circulation score,and medications used within 72 h after admission(intravenous thrombolysis+dual antiplatelet therapy,tirofiban+dual antiplatelet therapy,argatroban+dual antiplatelet therapy,argatroban alone,dual antiplatelet therapy alone).Variables with statistically significant differences in univariate analysis were included in multivariate Logistic regression analysis to explore the independent influencing factors for END in patients with acute anterior circulation large-vessel occlusive mild stroke treated with medications alone.Results A total of 208 patients with acute anterior circulation large-vessel occlusive mild stroke were included,with 143 males and 65 females,aged 38-85 years,with an average age of(64±9)years.Among them,86 patients were in the neurological deterioration group and 122 in the stable condition group.(1)There were statistically significant differences between the neurological deterioration group and the stable condition group in terms of history of diabetes mellitus(39.5％[34/86]vs.17.2％[21/122]),smoking history(43.0％[37/86]vs.29.5％[36/122]),left cerebral hemisphere lesion(57.0％[49/86]vs.41.0％[50/122]),collateral circulation score(4[3,5]vs.5[4,5]),time from onset to admission(7.0[3.0,17.0]hvs.4.3[2.0,11.0]h),blood glucose at admission(7.4[5.8,10.0]mmol/L vs.6.7[5.8,7.7]mmol/L),neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio(3.8[2.4,5.1]vs.3.0[2.1,4.3]),dual antiplatelet therapy alone(19.8％[17/86]vs.6.6％[8/122]),and argatroban+dual antiplatelet therapy(8.1％[7/86]vs.29.5％[36/122];all P＜0.05).There were no statistically significant differences in the results of the remaining univariate analyses(all P＞0.05).(2)Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that diabetes mellitus(OR,2.674,95％CI 1.121-6.377,P=0.027)and left cerebral hemisphere vessel occlusion(OR,2.030,95％CI I.083-3.806,P=0.027)were independent risk factors for END in acute anterior circulation large-vessel occlusive mild stroke.Argatroban+dual antiplatelet therapy(OR,0.267,95％CI 0.116-0.613,P=0.002)and high collateral circulation score(OR,0.551,95％CI 0.368-0.824,P=0.004)were independent protective factors for END in acute anterior circulation large-vessel occlusive mild stroke.Conclusions Acute anterior circulation large-vessel occlusive mild stroke patients with diabetes mellitus or left cerebral hemisphere lesions are prone to END.The combination of argatroban and dual antiplatelet therapy and good collateral circulation can reduce the risk of END.
