BackgroundCognitive function is closely related to an individual's quality of life and social functioning， with approximately 20%~35% of patients with depressive disorder experiencing some degree of cognitive impairment even after clinical symptom remission. Existing evidence suggests that tACS can improve specific cognitive domains， such as memory function， while its effects on other cognitive dimensions， such as executive functioning， attention， and information processing speed， remain unclear. ObjectiveTo explore the effects of tACS on the multidimensional cognitive functions and emotional problems of patients with depressive disorder， thus to provide references for the treatment of depressive disorder. MethodsForty-nine patients with depressive disorder who were hospitalized in the Fourth People's Hospital of Wuhu from November 2022 to October 2024 and met the diagnostic criteria for depressive disorder outlined in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders， fifth edition （DSM-5）， were selected as study participants. Subjects were randomly divided into study group （n=23） and control group （n=26） based on Microsoft Excel. Both groups received sertraline treatment. The initial dose was 50 mg/day， which gradually titrated upward based on individual variability， drug tolerance， and therapeutic response， with a maintenance dose ranging from 100 to 200 mg/day. In addition， the study group underwent tACS therapy for 4 weeks， with 5 sessions per week， each lasting 20 minutes. The control group received sham stimulation， in which the stimulus was interrupted after the first 30 seconds. At baseline， the 4^th week， and the 12^th week of treatment， patients were assessed using the Hamilton Depression Scale-17 item （HAMD-17）， Hamilton Anxiety Scale （HAMA）， and MATRICS Consensus Cognitive Battery （MCCB）. ResultsRepeated measures analysis of variance indicated that both the time effect and the time×group interaction effect for HAMD-17 scores were statistically significant between the two groups （F=260.437， 25.309， P<0.01）. At week 12 of treatment， the HAMD-17 score in the study group was lower than that in the control group （t=4.236， P<0.01）. For HAMA scores， the time effect， group effect， and time×group interaction effect were all statistically significant between the two groups （F=248.082， 4.506， 9.500， P<0.05 or 0.01）. At weeks 4 and 12， study group reported lower HAMA scores compared with control group （t=4.580， 2.608， P<0.05 or 0.01）. Regarding the MCCB scores for attention/vigilance， verbal learning， and overall composite， the time effect， group effect， and time×group interaction effect were all statistically significant between the two groups （F=70.331， 27.882， 51.679， 5.560， 10.948， 7.860， 8.490， 3.874， 5.025， P<0.05 or 0.01）. After intervention， the study group showed significantly higher MCCB scores for attention/vigilance， verbal learning， and overall composite at both week 4 （t=-2.149， -3.530， -2.740， P<0.05） and week 12 （t=-3.534， -3.576， -3.838， P<0.01） when compared to the control group. ConclusionThe combined tACS and sertraline therapy may demonstrate superior efficacy to pharmacotherapy alone in the short term for improving attention/vigilance， verbal learning， overall cognitive function， and anxiety symptoms in patients with depressive disorders. Based on the 12-week outcomes， the combined tACS and sertraline therapy not only sustaine its previously observed advantages in improving cognitive domains and anxiety symptoms， but also demonstrate potentially superior efficacy over monotherapy in alleviating depressive symptoms. ［Fund by Clinical Medical Research Transformation Special Project of Anhui Province （number， 202204295107020065）］

INTRODUCTION: Lecanemab has shown promise in treating early Alzheimer's disease (AD), but its safety and efficacy in Chinese populations remain unexplored. This study aimed to evaluate the safety and 6-month clinical outcomes of lecanemab in Chinese patients with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) or mild AD. METHODS: In this single-arm, real-world study, participants with MCI due to AD or mild AD received biweekly intravenous lecanemab (10 mg/kg). The study was conducted at Hainan Branch, Ruijin Hospital Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine. Patient enrollment and baseline assessments commenced in November 2023. Safety assessments included monitoring for amyloid-related imaging abnormalities (ARIA) and other adverse events. Clinical and biomarker changes from baseline to 6 months were evaluated using cognitive scales (mini-mental state examination [MMSE], montreal cognitive assessment [MoCA], clinical dementia rating-sum of boxes [CDR-SB]), plasma biomarker analysis, and advanced neuroimaging. RESULTS: A total of 64 patients were enrolled in this ongoing real-world study. Safety analysis revealed predominantly mild adverse events, with infusion-related reactions (20.3%, 13/64) being the most common. Of these, 69.2% (9/13) occurred during the initial infusion and 84.6% (11/13) did not recur. ARIA-H (microhemorrhages/superficial siderosis) and ARIA-E (edema/effusion) were observed in 9.4% (6/64) and 3.1% (2/64) of participants, respectively, with only two symptomatic cases (one ARIA-E presenting with headache and one ARIA-H with visual disturbances). After 6 months of treatment, cognitive scores remained stable compared to baseline (MMSE: 22.33 ± 5.58 vs . 21.27 ± 4.30, P = 0.733; MoCA: 16.38 ± 6.67 vs . 15.90 ± 4.78, P = 0.785; CDR-SB: 2.30 ± 1.65 vs . 3.16 ± 1.72, P = 0.357), while significantly increasing plasma amyloid-β 42 (Aβ42) (+21.42%) and Aβ40 (+23.53%) levels compared to baseline. CONCLUSIONS: Lecanemab demonstrated a favorable safety profile in Chinese patients with early AD. Cognitive stability and biomarker changes over 6 months suggest potential efficacy, though high dropout rates and absence of a control group warrant cautious interpretation. These findings provide preliminary real-world evidence for lecanemab's use in China, supporting further investigation in larger controlled studies. REGISTRATION ClinicalTrials.gov , NCT07034222.

Objective To investigate the influencing factors of autism spectrum disorder(ASD)among the children in Bijie City.Methods A total of 195 children diagnosed as ASD in Bijie City from June 2022 to August 2023 were selected as the case group and 201 healthy children extracted from the urban and rural kin-dergartens by the simple random sampling survey method served as the control group.The guardians of the children were surveyed by using a self-designed questionnaire.The logistic regression was adopted to analyze the influencing factors of childhood ASD onset.Results The univariate analysis results revealed that the differences in the sex,age,residential environment,maternal education level,maternal occupation,maternal age at pregnancy,maternal prenatal depression,health status at birth,feeding mode,early health status after birth,primary caregiver before 1 year old,left-behind experience before 3 years old,parenting attitude towards discipline and parental disciplinary severity between the two groups had statistical significance(P＜0.05).The multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the child's sex,age,residential environment,mater-nal education level,maternal occupation,annual household income,maternal age at pregnancy,health status in neonatal period,primary caregiver beforel year old and left-behind experience before 3 years old were the inde-pendent influencing factors for ASD occurrence(P＜0.05).The specific manifestations included the boys,aged 5-6 years old,living in urban areas,mothers with a junior high school education or below,mothers as full-time housewives,family average annual income＜50 000 Yuan,mother pregnancy age＜20 years old,dyspnea or suffocation at birth,mainly taking care by others before 1 year old,and experience of being a left-behind child before 3 years old,which were more likely to develop autism.Conclusion The onset of childhood ASD is the results of multiple factors concurrent action.

BACKGROUND:Although the clinical application of Masquelet technology has achieved extensive success,the research on optimizing all aspects of Masquelet technology is still being carried out.The focus of doctors is to speed up bone healing and shorten bone healing time after bone grafting. OBJECTIVE:To observe the effect of calcium phosphate combined with recombinant human bone morphogenetic protein-2 in repairing tibial infectious bone defects. METHODS:Thirty-one patients with tibial infectious bone defects were selected from The People's Hospital of Jianyang City from June 2017 to June 2022.They were treated with the Masquelet membrane induction technique.During the second stage of operation,they were divided into a control group(n=15)and a study group(n=16)according to different bone graft materials.Patients in the control group were implanted with autologous bone/allogeneic bone particles,and those in the study group were implanted with calcium phosphate combined with recombinant human bone morphogenetic protein-2/autologous bone particles.Six months after the second stage operation,peripheral blood inflammatory indexes such as white blood cell count,C-reactive protein,and erythrocyte sedimentation rate were detected.Imaging bone healing time,bone healing X-ray score,bone defect healing classification,and adjacent joint function were recorded.The presence of nail track infection,implant absorption,pain,and infection in the bone extraction area were observed. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)White blood cell count,erythrocyte sedimentation rate,and C-reactive protein levels of the two groups 6 months after the second stage operation were significantly lower than those before the first stage operation(P<0.05).There was no significant difference in each index between the two groups(P>0.05).(2)Bone healing time in the study group was shorter than that in the control group(P<0.05).(3)The Samantha X-ray score of the study group 6 months after the second stage operation was higher than that of the control group(P<0.05).The excellent and good rate of bone defect healing and adjacent joint function of the study group was higher than that of the control group(P<0.05).There was no significant difference in the recurrence rate and complication rate between the two groups(P>0.05).(4)These findings indicate that the effect of calcium phosphate combined with recombinant human bone morphogenetic protein-2 during the second stage operation of the Masquelet membrane induction technique in the treatment of tibial infectious bone defect is good and safe.

Objective To compare the efficacy of trastuzumab plus pertuzumab(HP)combined with either nab-paclitaxel plus carboplatin or docetaxel plus carboplatin as neoadjuvant therapy for HER2-positive breast cancer in real-world clinical practice.Methods Clinical data of HER2-positive breast cancer patients who received neoadjuvant therapy with either HP combined with nab-paclitaxel plus carboplatin or HP combined with docetaxel plus carboplatin and subsequently underwent surgery were retrospectively collected from 11 tertiary grade-A hospitals in Hebei Province from June 2019 to December 2021.The total pathological complete response(tpCR)rates of the two groups were compared.Results A total of 76 patients were included in the study,with 47 in the nab-paclitaxel group and 29 in the docetaxel group.The tpCR rate was significantly higher in the nab-paclitaxel group than that in the docetaxel group(72.3%vs.48.3%,χ2=4.463,P=0.035).Subgroup analysis indicated that patients older than 40 years,with cN2-3,cTNM stage Ⅲ,hormone receptor-positive status,and Ki67>30%had significantly higher tpCR rates in the nab-paclitaxel group than those in the docetaxel group(P<0.05).Conclusion In real-world clinical practice,the efficacy of HP combined with nab-paclitaxel plus carboplatin as neoadjuvant therapy for HER2-positive breast cancer is superior to that of HP combined with docetaxel plus carboplatin.

Objective To quantitatively assess the influence of various factors on the pharmacokinetic parameters of propofol and to develop a propofol population pharmacokinetic model tailored for Chinese patients.Methods Thirty patients scheduled for selective abdominal surgeries received an anesthesia dose of propofol at 2.0 mg·kg-1.The concentration of propofol in collected venous blood samples was measured using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry.Polymorphisms in metabolizing enzyme genes were detected through Sanger sequencing technology.Pharmacokinetic parameters were computed,and models were constructed and evaluated using Phoenix Winnonlin software.Results Through software analysis,the drug's in vivo process was best described by a three-compartment model.The population mean values for the central compartment clearance rate(CL),shallow peripheral compartment clearance rate(Q2),deep peripheral compartment clearance rate(Q3),central compartment volume of distribution(V),shallow peripheral compartment volume of distribution(V2),and deep peripheral compartment volume of distribution(V3)were 1.71 L·min-1,1.31 L·min-1,1.51 L·min-1,5.92 L,19.86 L and 99.06 L,respectively.Body weight was identified as a significant covariate affecting CL and V,and was incorporated into the model.Conclusion The evaluation of the final model demonstrates its substantial predictive capability,offering directional guidance for the clinical administration of propofol.

Objective: To learn the status and influencing factors of development among infants at ages of 0 to 36 months in Xiaoshan District, Hangzhou City, so as to provide the reference for promoting healthy development of infants. Methods: Infants at ages of 0-36 months who underwent physical examination in Child Health Clinic of Xiaoshan District Community Health Service Center were selected in 2022. General data of infants and their mothers were collected through questionnaires, and the development status of infants was screened by Age and Stages Questionnaire (third edition). Factors affecting the development status were identified using a multivariable logistic regression model. Results: A total of 2 519 infants were investigated, including 1 339 males (53.16%) and 1 180 females (46.84%). There were 608 infants with abnormal development of at least one functional area of communication (CM), gross motor (GM), fine motor (FM), problems solving (CG) and personal-social (PS). The abnormal rate was 24.14%, and the abnormal rates of the above functional areas were 9.77%, 6.59%, 7.98%, 6.39% and 9.33%, respectively. Multivariable logistic regression analysis showed that gender (male, OR=1.563, 95%CI: 1.191-2.052), mother's childbearing age (≥35 years, OR=1.411, 95%CI: 1.001-1.988), mother's educational level (lower than junior college, OR=1.460, 95%CI: 1.116-1.912) were factors affecting abnormal development of CM; preterm birth (OR=2.323, 95%CI: 1.315-4.103) was factors affecting abnormal development of GM; gender (male, OR=1.654, 95%CI: 1.225-2.232) was factors affecting abnormal development of FM; gender (male, OR=1.511, 95%CI: 1.086-2.102) and mode of delivery (cesarean section, OR=1.460, 95%CI: 1.060-2.010) were factors affecting abnormal development of CG; gender (male, OR=1.340, 95%CI: 1.019-1.763) and birth weight (low birth weight, OR=1.985, 95%CI: 1.149-3.432) were factors affecting abnormal development of PS. Conclusions The rate of abnormal development among infants at ages of 0 to 36 months in Xiaoshan District is 24.14%. Gender, preterm birth, mode of delivery, birth weight, mother's childbearing age and mother's educational level could affect the development status of infants.

Objective:To evaluate the diagnostic efficacy of the novel prostate specific membrane antigen (PSMA)-targeted PET imaging agent 18F-AlF-P16-093 in combination with multiparametric MRI (mpMRI) for prostate cancer (PCa), and to explore its application in guiding transperineal puncture biopsy. Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical and pathological data of 36 patients diagnosed as PCa (age: 68-76 years) who underwent 18F-AlF-P16-093 PET/CT and mpMRI examinations at the First Affiliated Hospital of Guangzhou Medical University from August 2023 to March 2024. The entire prostate was divided into 12 regions based on biopsy localization. Imaging evaluations were performed using PET/CT and mpMRI at the lesion level, with biopsy pathology as the gold standard. The correlations between mpMRI scores, PET/CT scores and pathological diagnosis results were evaluated by Phi coefficient analysis. Diagnostic efficacy was assessed by ROC curve analysis. Logistic regression was used to determine the impact of bleeding on image interpretation. Results:18F-AlF-P16-093 PET/CT showed a moderate positive correlation with pathological diagnosis result ( Phi=0.415, P<0.001), which was superior to mpMRI ( Phi=0.338, P<0.001). The diagnostic efficacy of PET single-modality model was superior to mpMRI in all indicators. The combination of 18F-AlF-P16-093 PET/CT with mpMRI significantly improved diagnostic specificity and positive predictive value, with the diagnostic specificity of the PET+ T 2 weighted imaging (WI)+ diffusion WI (DWI) and PET+ T 2WI+ DWI+ apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) combinations exceeding 90%, and the positive predictive value exceeding 80%. Bleeding did not significantly affect the diagnosis of PCa by mpMRI and PET/CT (odds ratio ( OR): 0.463-0.785, all P>0.05). Conclusion:18F-AlF-P16-093 PET/CT is superior to mpMRI in the detection and diagnostic efficacy of PCa lesions, and the combination of 18F-AlF-P16-093 PET with mpMRI can further improve diagnostic specificity and positive predictive value, which is of guiding significance for targeted prostate biopsy.

AIM To explore the clinical effects of comprehensive treatment regimen of traditional Chinese medicine on patients with refractory rhinosinusitis.METHODS One hundred and sixty-four patients were randomly assigned into control group(82 cases)for 3-month intervention of comprehensive treatment regimen of western medicine(Physiological Seawater Nasal Spray,Budesonide Nasal Spray,Clarithromycin Tablets),and observation group(82 cases)for 3-month intervention of comprehensive treatment regimen of traditional Chinese medicine(Xinzhi Tongqiao Granules,Xinbai Nasal Fumigation Powder,acupuncture of sphenopalatine ganglion).The changes in clinical effects,subjective disease indices(clinical symptom scores,SNOT-20 score,Lung Meridian Heat Accumulation Syndrome score),objective disease indices(Lund-Kennedy score,T&T olfactory score,MTT,MTR),inflammatory indices(LTC4,IL-17a,IL-33,ECP),immune indices(CD4+,CD8+,Treg,Th17,CD4+/CD8+,Th17/Treg)and safety indices were detected.RESULTS The observation group demonstrated higher total control rate than the control group(P＜0.05).After the treatment and at 3-month follow-up,the two groups displayed decreased clinical symptom scores,inflammatory indices,CD8+,Th17,Th17/Treg,SNOT-20 score,Lung Meridian Heat Accumulation Syndrome score,Lund-Kennedy score,T&T olfactory score(P＜0.05),increased CD4+,Treg,CD4+/CD8+,MTR(P＜0.05),and shortened MTT(P＜0.05),especially for the observation group(P＜0.05).No obvious adverse reactions were observable in the two groups.CONCLUSION For the patients with refractory rhinosinusitis,the comprehensive treatment regimen of traditional Chinese medicine can safely and effectively improve inflammatory responses,immune functions and mucociliary motor functions,repair the status and functions of nasal mucosa,alleviate subjective and objective symptoms,and enhance life quality.
