Objective: To analyze the relationship between parental psychological control and Internet Gaming Disorder (IGD) among junior high school students, so as to provide evidence for preventing IGD development in adolescents. Methods: From August 2019 to February 2020, a survey was conducted among 1 169 junior high school students from three middle schools in Xian using stratified cluster sampling. The Parental Psychological Control Scale and IGD Scale were administered to assess parental psychological control and IGD prevalence. Univariate and binary Logistic regression analyses were used to explore IGD risk factors and their correlation with parental psychological control. Results: The detection rate of IGD in middle school students was 19.9%(184/1 169). Multivariate Logistic regression revealed that compared to those with lower parental psychological control scores(&le;21 points), students with higher parental psychological control scores (>21 points) had a higher risk of IGD (OR=1.82, 95%CI=1.21-2.74), a 1.58fold higher risk of selfperceived gaming addiction (95%CI=1.07-2.30), as well as reduced likelihood of seeking external help to reduce gaming time (OR=0.66, 95%CI=0.47-0.94) (P<0.05). Conclusions Parental psychological control may elevate the risks of IGD and selfperceived addiction while diminishing proactive helpseeking behaviors to reduce gaming time. Parents should enhance communication with adolescents and provide positive guidance to mitigate potential gamingrelated harms.

Objective To develop a predictive model for guiding blood transfusion decisions in pediatric patients with traumatic brain injury(TBI)by identifying and analyzing key factors that influence blood transfusion requirements.Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of 1,535 pediatric patients with TBI admitted to four medical institutions from January 1,2015,to December 31,2022.Patients were divided into two groups:those who received red blood cell transfusions during hospitalization and those who did not.Comparative analyses were performed on demographic,clinical,and laboratory data between these two groups.Logistic regression analysis was used to identify risk factors associated with in-hospital blood transfusion,and a predictive model was developed using a nomogram.The performance of this model was evaluated using a receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve.Results Significant differences were observed between the blood transfusion and non-blood transfusion groups in terms of baseline demographics,clinical indicators,and laboratory test results(all P<0.05).Patients in the blood transfusion group exhibited significantly higher in-hospital mortality,compli-cation rates,use of mechanical ventilation,ICU admission rates,and length of stay compared to those in the non-blood transfusion group(all P<0.05).Multivariate logistic regression analysis identified heart rate,presence of other fractures,treatment methods,hemoglobin(Hb),platelet count(Plt),activated partial thromboplastin time(APTT),and D-dimer levels as independent risk factors for blood transfusion in TBI patients.The area under the ROC curve for the blood transfusion prediction model,based on these independent risk factors,was 0.95(95%CI:0.94～0.97),indicating excellent predictive accuracy.Calibration and decision curves further validated the robust-ness and reliability of the model's predictive capacity.Conclusions Heart rate,presence of other fractures,treatment methods,Hb,Plt count,APTT,and D-dimer levels serve as independent risk factors for blood transfusion in TBI patients.The prediction model developed based on these factors demonstrates excellent predictive performance,thereby guiding clinicians in making informed blood transfusion decisions and enhancing the success rate of patient outcomes.

Objective:To evaluate the safety and efficacy of immunoadsorption with protein A column(PA-IA) in refractory anti-N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor (NMDAR) encephalitis in children.Methods:The clinical data of 8 children with anti-NMDAR encephalitis who failed to receive first-line treatment from January 2022 to June 2023 in PICU of Xi'an Children's Hospital were retrospectively collected.Clinical features,modified Rankin score (mRS),anti-NMDAR antibody titers in serum and cerebrospinal fluid(CSF),cells count in CSF,protein level in CSF,serum IgG,complement C3,C4 level were analyzed before and after immunoadsorption therapy. All adverse events that occurred during treatment were recorded in detail.Result:Among the 8 children,there were 5 males and 3 females,aged 5 to 12 years old,and each patient was immunized 6 to 10 times,and 75 times of PA-IA treatment were performed. The mRS score decreased in 8 children after PA-IA treatment. Blood IgG level,CSF cell number,protein level in CSF,blood complement C3 and C4 levels,and antibody titers related in blood and CSF were all lower than those before PA-IA treatment. The differences were all statistically significant ( P<0.001).During 75 times of treatment,only 1 case of membrane rupture occurred during treatment,the treatment was stopped and continued after the plasma separator was replaced,with no other adverse reactions. Conclusion:PA-IA could effectively improve the clinical symptoms and neurological function of children with refractory anti-NMDAR encephalitis with good safety,but its exact efficacy in children with anti-NMDAR encephalitis needs to be verified by prospective studies with larger samples.

Objective:To investigate the efficacy of nafamostat mesylate in traumatic extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) therapy.Methods:Patients admitted to the intensive care units of Children's Hospital Affiliated to Xi'an Jiaotong University and Gansu Provincial Maternal and Child Health Hospital for ECMO-assisted cardiopulmonary support due to trauma from January 2021 to December 2024 were selected as the study subjects. Based on different anticoagulation strategies, patients were divided into the nafamostat mesylate group( n=11) and the common heparin group( n=10). The general conditions of the two groups were compared. In addition, differences in various clinical indicators during the ECMO-assisted process were compared, including white blood cell count (WBC), platelet count (PLT), hemoglobin level (Hb), hematocrit (HCT), prothrombin time(PT), activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT), thrombin time(TT), fibrinogen(FIB) and D-dimer. Furthermore，the differences in the total volume of component blood transfusions, coagulation substances, complications and prognosis between the two groups were compared. Results:No statistically significant differences were observed between the two groups regarding age, gender, weight, type of ECMO support, type of trauma, presence of active bleeding, or rate of surgical intervention. There were no statistically significant differences in WBC, PLT, Hb, HCT, PT, APTT, TT, FIB, and D-dimer between the two groups of patients prior to the initiation of ECMO support (all P>0.05). Compared with the common heparin group, children in the nafamostat mesylate group had lower PT[(21±6)s vs. (27±3)s; (20±4) vs. (28±5)], APTT[(68±8)s vs. (89±12)s; (64±15)s vs. (85±21)s], TT [(25±11)s vs. (31±13)s; (24±8)s vs. (35±6)s], and D-dimer[(5.8±1.1) μg/mL vs. (11.5±5.6) μg/mL; (4.2±1.8) μg/mL vs. (14.6±2.5) μg/mL],and higher FIB[(2.1±0.5) g/L vs. (1.6 ± 0.3) g/L; (2.4 ± 0.4) g/L vs. (1.3 ± 0.6) g/L] when ECMO assisted for 24 h and 72 h,the differences were all statistically significant(all P<0.05). Compared to the nafamostat mesylate group, the common heparin group exhibited significantly higher total cumulative infusion amounts of red blood cell suspension, plasma, platelet, FIB, hemocoagulase, and thromboplastin complex during the ECMO-assisted process, and the differences were statistically significant (all P<0.05). There was no statistically significant difference between the two groups of children in terms of time to ECMO assistance, membrane lung failure, loop thrombosis, embolism, and successful withdrawal rate (all P>0.05). Conclusion:Nafamostat mesylate can effectively reduce the risk of bleeding and minimize the requirement for blood product and coagulation substance infusions during traumatic ECMO assistance.

Intra-aortic balloon pump(IABP),as the most commonly used percutaneous mechanical circulatory assist device,is routinely implanted through the femoral artery pathway.However,when implantation through the femoral artery pathway is difficult or contraindicated,other pathways including the brachial artery pathway,axillary artery pathway,etc.can be considered.IABP assisted interventional treatment for complex high-risk and indicated patients(CHIP)can reduce the risk of intraoperative complications,stabilize hemodynamics,increase the complete revascularization rate of CHIP,and improve long-term prognosis.The reverse guidewire technique can improve the success rate of percutaneous coronary intervention(PCI)for chronic total occlusion(CTO)of coronary arteries.In clinical practice,the reverse pathway is often chosen in addition to the forward pathway,such as the contralateral radial and brachial artery pathway,femoral artery pathway,etc.This article reports a case of bilateral femoral artery occlusion,in which IABP was implanted through the left brachial artery pathway,and then with the assistance of IABP,the right coronary artery CTO lesion was successfully opened through the right radial artery in the forward direction and the right brachial artery in the reverse direction,with the aim of providing reference for clinical PCI treatment for such special cases.

Objective:To analyze the characteristics,high-risk factors,and maternal fetal outcomes of intrahe-patic cholestasis of pregnancy(ICP)in twin pregnancies,and provide a basis for clinical intervention.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on 791 cases twin pregnant women who gave birth ≥24 weeks of gestation at Changsha Maternal and Child Health Hospital affiliated to Hunan Normal University from January 1,2021 to No-vember 30,2024.According to whether the pregnant women were complicated with ICP,all included twin pregnant women were divided into two groups,with 732 cases in the non ICP group and 59 cases in the ICP group.The differences in clinical characteristics,high-risk factors,and maternal fetal outcomes between two groups were compared,and Logistic regression analysis was used to identify the influencing factors of ICP in twin pregnancies.Results:①Among the women with twin live births who gave birth at ≥24 weeks of gestation,the incidence of ICP was 7.46％(59/791),and the proportion of mildly elevated total bile acid(TBA)was 83.05％(49/59);The inci-dence of ICP was highest at 34-36+6 weeks of pregnancy,accounting for 52.54％(31/59),and the incidence be-fore full-term was 77.97％(46/59);The treatment rate of TBA lowering drugs was 37.29％(22/59),and the inef-fective rate of drug treatment was 68.18％(15/22).②Univariate analysis found that the proportion of preeclamp-sia(PE)and previous cesarean section history in the ICP group was higher than that in the non ICP group,and the difference was statistically significant(P＜0.05).③ Logistic regression analysis suggests that,PE(OR 3.104,95％CI 1.763-5.466)and a history of previous cesarean section(OR 2.252,95％CI 1.039-4.878)were an inde-pendent risk factor for ICP in twins(P＜0.05).④The gestational age at delivery and birth weight of newborns in the ICP group were lower than those in the non ICP group.The premature birth rate,cesarean section rate,and neonatal transfer rate were higher than those in the non ICP group,and the differences were statistically signifi-cant(P＜0.05).Conclusions:PE and previous cesarean section history are high-risk factors for the occurrence of ICP in twin pregnancies.A detailed understanding of past medical history and active prevention of PE are bene-ficial for preventing the occurrence of ICP in twin pregnancies.

To establish a method for detecting Toxoplasma gondii based on recombinant polymerase amplification(RPA)technology and apply it to clinical sample validation of pet cats.Using the 529 repeat sequence of the Toxoplasma gondii gene as the target gene sequence,primers and probes were designed,and the Rep-529 recombinant plasmid was constructed as the standard.A fluorescent RPA reaction system was established.Dilute the plasmid standard 10 times to different concentrations as the detection template for sensitivity testing;Specific testing was conducted using genomic DNA from several parasitic spe-cies,including Toxoplasma gondii,Cryptosporidium,Neosporidium,Trichinella spiralis,Giardia flagellata,Babesia bo-vis and Theileria annulata as templates;Simultaneously,fluorescence RPA and RT-PCR were used to detect 52 positive and 40 negative cats clinical samples,and the coincidence rate of the detection results of the two methods were compared and ana-lyzed.The RPA reaction system was successfully established using PTRep recombinant plasmid as the standard,ToxD-F/ToxD-R as the primer,and RepD-P as the fluorescent probe.The reaction temperature was constant at 39 ℃,the reaction time was 30 minutes,and the detection sensitivity was 1 copy/μL.There is no significant cross reaction with parasites such as Cryptosporidium,Neosporidium,Trichinella spiralis,Giardia,Babesia bovis and Theileria annulata,and the specificity is good.A total of 92 clinical fecal samples from cats were tested,and the positive coincidence rate of fluorescence RPA detection method was higher than that of conventional RT-PCR method(98.08％vs.82.69％),and the difference of the positive rate was not statistically significant(X2=1.392,P＞0.05).The fluorescence RPA detection method for Toxoplasma gondii suc-cessfully established in this study has the characteristics of being fast,sensitive,specific,accurate,and reliable.It can be used as a rapid clinical detection kit for Toxoplasma gondii in cats and other animals,providing new technical support for the subsequent epidemiological monitoring and precise clinical diagnosis of toxoplasmosis in cats,other animals,and humans in the future.

Objective To systematically summarize medication patterns and explore the potential mechanisms of core herbal combinations in treating chronic glomerulonephritis(CGN)based on data mining and network pharmacology,and to provide a reference for clinical treatment strategies.Methods Electronic book databases were searched to screen the CGN prescription from the works of contemporary Xin'an medical practitioners.Frequency statistics,association rule analysis,and clustering algorithms via the traditional Chinese medicine(TCM)Inheritance Support Platform V3.5 were applied to identify high-frequency herbs(frequency of use>10%)and core combinations.Active ingredients and potential targets were predicted using TCMSP,PubChem,and SwissTargetPrediction databases.Disease-related targets were retrieved from OMIM and GeneCards,after obtaining the intersecting targets,followed by protein-protein interaction(PPI)network construction(STRING platform),Cytoscape topological analysis,and GO and KEGG pathway enrichment(DAVID).Results A total of 151 prescriptions related to the treatment of CGN were included,involving 213 flavours of TCM,including 42 varites of high frequency drugs,mainly in the categories of supplementing deficiency,eliminating dampness and diuresis and clearing heat.Theherb properties were mainly cold,warm,and neutral,with flavors of sweet,bitter,and pungent.Herbs primarily targeted the liver,lung,kidney,and spleen meridians.Thecore combination"Astragali Radix,Dioscorea Rhizome,Atractylodis Macrocephalae Rhizoma,Imperata Rhizome,Pyrrosiae Folium,Poria"was identified,with key active ingredients including quercetin,stigmasterol,and β-sitosterol.Core targets involved IL6,EGFR,TNF,AKT1,and PIK3CA,while enriched pathways included PI3K-Akt and AGE-RAGE signaling.Conclusion Contemporary Xin'an practitioners primarily treat CGN by tonifying the spleen,nourishing the kidney,and clearing damp-heat.Thecore herbal combination exerts synergistic effects through multi-target intervention in immune-inflammatory pathways,oxidative stress,and fibrotic pathways,highlighting the holistic therapeutic advantages of TCM formulas via multi-component synergistic regulation and multi-target interactions.This study provides a theoretical foundation for further experimental validation and clinical applications.

Nonunion of osteoporotic vertebral fractures (OVF), predominantly affecting the elderly, can lead to intractable pain, vertebral collapse, progressive kyphotic deformity, and neurological impairment, significantly compromising patients′ quality of life. There exists considerable debate on diagnosis and management of OVF, encompassing key issues such as clinical diagnosis and staging criteria for nonunion, surgical indications and procedure selection, and postoperative rehabilitation planning. Currently, there lacks standardized clinical guideline and expert consensus on the diagnosis and management of OVF nonunion in China. To address this gap, Minimally Invasive Surgery Group of Chinese Orthopedic Association, Osteoporosis Committee of Chinese Association of Orthopedic Surgeons, Prevention and Rehabilitation Committee for Osteoporosis of Chinese Association of Rehabilitation Medicine and Minimally Invasive Orthopedic Surgery Branch of China Association for Geriatric Care jointly organized domestic experts in spinal surgery, endocrinology, and rehabilitation to formulate the Clinical guideline for the diagnosis and treatment for nonunion of osteoporotic vertebral fractures ( version 2025), based on existing literature and clinical experience and adhering to principles of scientific rigor and practicality. The guideline provided 13 evidence-based recommendations encompassing diagnosis and treatment of OVF nonunion, aiming to standardize its clinical management.

Objective:To observe the effect of intensified heel anti-gravity posture stability training on the gait of stroke survivors.Methods:Thirty-six hemiplegic stroke survivors were randomly divided into a control group and an experimental group, each of 18. Both groups received conventional rehabilitation treatment (including limb positioning, limb movement training and conventional walking training), while the experimental group was additionally provided with 30 minutes of intense heel anti-gravity posture stability training 5 days a week for 4 weeks. Before and after the treatment, the subjects′ walking speed, stride frequency, step length, peak knee flexion angle and peak hip flexion angle were documented using three-dimensional gait analysis with a movement training system.Results:The average walking speed, stride rate, step length, peak hip flexion and peak knee flexion of both groups had improved significantly after the treatments. But the average walking speed [(0.46±0.06)m/s], step length [(85.05±6.68)cm], peak hip flexion angle [(34.80±2.80)°] and peak knee flexion angle [(40.55±3.58)°] of the treatment group were significantly better than those of the control group.Conclusions:Intensified heel anti-gravity posture stability training can significantly improve the walking speed, step length, hip flexion and knee flexion of hemiplegic stroke survivors.
