Objective:
To investigate methods for constructing a high-quality instructional dataset for traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) mental disorders and to validate its efficacy.
Methods:
We proposed the Fine-Med-Mental-T&P methodology for constructing high-quality instruction datasets in TCM mental disorders. This approach integrates theoretical knowledge and practical case studies through a dual-track strategy. (i) Theoretical track: textbooks and guidelines on TCM mental disorders were manually segmented. Initial responses were generated using DeepSeek-V3, followed by refinement by the Qwen3-32B model to align the expression with human preferences. A screening algorithm was then applied to select 16 000 high-quality instruction pairs. (ii) Practical track: starting from over 600 real clinical case seeds, diagnostic and therapeutic instruction pairs were generated using DeepSeek-V3 and subsequently screened through manual evaluation, resulting in 4 000 high-quality practice-oriented instruction pairs. The integration of both tracks yielded the Med-Mental-Instruct-T&P dataset, comprising a total of 20 000 instruction pairs. To validate the dataset’s effectiveness, three experimental evaluations (both manual and automated) were conducted: (i) comparative studies to compare the performance of models fine-tuned on different datasets; (ii) benchmarking to compare against mainstream TCM-specific large language models (LLMs); (iii) data ablation study to investigate the relationship between data volume and model performance.
Results:
Experimental results demonstrate the superior performance of T&P-model fine-tuned on the Med-Mental-Instruct-T&P dataset. In the comparative study, the T&P-model significantly outperformed the baseline models trained solely on self-generated or purely human-curated baseline data. This superiority was evident in both automated metrics (ROUGE-L > 0.55) and expert manual evaluations (scoring above 7/10 across accuracy). In benchmark comparisons, the T&P-model also excelled against existing mainstream TCM LLMs (e.g., HuatuoGPT and ZuoyiGPT). It showed particularly strong capabilities in handling diverse clinical presentations, including challenging disorders such as insomnia and coma, showcasing its robustness and versatility. Data ablation studies showed that T&P-model performance had an overall upward trend with minor fluctuations when training data increased from 10% to 50%; beyond 50%, performance improvement slowed significantly, with metrics plateauing and approaching a saturation point.
Conclusion
This study has successfully constructed the specialized Med-Mental-Instruct-T&P instruction dataset for TCM mental disorders proposed the systematic Fine-Med-Mental-T&P methodology for its development, effectively addressing the critical challenge of high-quality, domain-specific data scarcity in TCM, and providing essential data support for developing intelligent TCM diagnostic and therapeutic systems.

Objective:
To investigate the trends in incidence and mortality of lung cancer in Huangpu District, Shanghai Municipality from 2002 to 2019, so as to provide the evidence for formulating lung cancer prevention and control measures.
Methods:
Data of lung cancer incidence and mortality among residents in Huangpu District from 2002 to 2019 were collected through the Shanghai Cancer Registration and Reporting Management System. The crude incidence and mortality of lung cancer was calculated, and standardized by the data from the Chinese Fifth National Population Census in 2000 (Chinese-standardized rate) and the Segi's world standard population in 1960 (world-standardized rate). The trends in incidence and mortality of lung cancer among residents by age and gender were evaluated using annual percent change (APC).
Results:
A total of 12 965 cases of lung cancer were reported in Huangpu District from 2002 to 2019, and the crude incidence rate was 80.66/105, the Chinese-standardized incidence rate was 34.54/105, and the world-standardized incidence rate was 31.30/105, all showing upward trends (APC=4.588%, 2.933% and 3.247%, all P<0.05). A total of 10 102 deaths of lung cancer were reported, and the crude mortality rate was 62.30/105, showing an upward trend (APC=0.959%, P<0.05); the Chinese-standardized mortality was 25.93/105, and the world-standardized mortality was 22.05/105, both showing downward trends (APC=-1.282% and -1.263%, both P<0.05). The crude incidence and mortality rates of lung cancer in males were higher than those in females (101.39/105 vs. 60.52/105, 85.45/105 vs. 39.87/105, both P<0.05). The crude incidence and mortality rates of lung cancer showed upward trends with age (both P<0.05), reaching their peaks in the age groups of 80-<85 years (341.37/105) and 85 years or above (355.97/105), respectively.
Conclusions
The incidence of lung cancer showed an upward trend, while the mortality showed a downward trend in Huangpu District from 2002 to 2019. Elderly men were the high-risk group for lung cancer incidence and mortality.

To assess the cross-contamination risk and genetic evolution ofStaphylococcus aureus(S.aureus)at various stages in a swine slaughterhouse,and to provide a reference for risk evalua-tion and control measures of S.aureus contamination during swine slaughtering,we conducted whole-genome sequencing on 31 isolates of S.aureus collected and preserved from the slaughter-house.Bioinformatics analyses were performed to investigate the genomic characteristics and genet-ic relationships of these isolates.Results revealed cross-contamination across different slaughter-house stages,predominantly with ST398-t1451 strains.Additionally,highly virulent ST9-t899 strains and ST398-t11 strains with numerous resistance genes were detected at various stages.The strains predominantly carried virulence genes such as hlgA,hlgB,and hlgC,with varying num-bers of resistance genes.Notably,two strains carried the optrA gene and three strains carried the cfr gene;the presence of the optrA gene is relatively rare among S.aureus.These genes confer re-sistance to novel synthetic antibiotics such as oxazolidinones and florfenicol and have the potential for horizontal gene transfer,increasing the risk of dissemination both within and beyond the slaughterhouse.Importantly,the study also detected a LA-MRSA-ST9 strain in water samples from the slaughterhouse,which could potentially infect humans.This strain exhibits zoonotic char-acteristics,highlighting the need for stricter protective measures for slaughterhouse workers to mitigate occupational exposure and infection risks.

Pregabalin, a structural analog of γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA), has been widely prescribed since its approval in 2004 for treating various neuropathic pain conditions. In Western countries, it is also approved for managing anxiety disorders. However, concerns about its potential for abuse and dependence have led to its reclassification as a second-line treatment in recent years. Although pregabalin addiction has been reported in international studies, there have been no such reports within China. This article presents a case of addiction stemming from pregabalin abuse to manage anxiety symptoms. The patient experienced withdrawal symptoms after discontinuing the drug, which were successfully treated. The development of pregabalin addiction, withdrawal symptoms, and the OD(overdose) pattern of drug abuse in this case should draw the attention of clinicians in China.
