In recent years， the incidence of depression among adolescents has increased significantly， becoming a serious global public health problem. There is a close relationship between adolescent depression and lipid metabolism abnormalities. However， the mechanisms underlying this association have not been fully elucidated. This article provides a review of the mechanisms and interventions linking adolescent depression and lipid metabolism abnormalities， aiming to offer new ideas for interventions in adolescent depression. Using computerized searches of the China National Knowledge Infrastructure （CNKI）， Wanfang Data， PubMed， and Web of Science， studies on the mechanisms and interventions related to adolescent depression and lipid metabolism were collected， with the search period extending up to October 10， 2025. Two researchers independently conducted literature screening and extracted basic information from the included studies. A total of 12 original studies were included. The results indicate that adolescent depression is associated with certain lipid metabolites. Neurobiological factors， immune inflammation， oxidative stress， and gut microbiota imbalance play important roles in this association. In addition， lipid metabolites such as omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids （ω-3 PUFAs） have a significant ameliorating effect on adolescent depression. ［Funded by Shenzhen Fund for Guangdong Provincial High-level Clinical Key Specialties （number， SZGSP013）； Shenzhen Science and Technology Program （number， 20210617155253001）］

Objective: To investigate the annual trend and influencing factors of screening myopia prevalence among children and adolescents in Tianhe District, Guangzhou from 2021 to 2024, so as to provide a scientific basis for optimizing targeted and precise regional myopia prevention and control strategies. Methods: From 2021 to 2024, a stratified cluster random sampling method was adopted to recruit 10 132 students ranging from senior kindergarten to senior high school from fixed monitoring sites for myopia screening. Additionally, a questionnaire survey on myopia related factors was administered to 7 115 students in grade 4 and above. Generalized estimating equation (GEE) models were used to analyze the annual changing trends and interaction effects, and mixed effects models were performed for sensitivity analysis. Results: The screening myopia prevalence among children and adolescents in Tianhe District from 2021 to 2024 was 58.9%, 57.3%, 56.8%, and 54.7%, respectively, and showed a statistically significant difference ( χ 2=9.06, P <0.05). The prevalence rates among senior kindergarten, primary school, junior high school, regular senior high school, and vocational high school students were 8.7%, 40.7%, 74.3%, 86.7%, and 75.6%, respectively （χ 2= 2 493.11， P <0.05). The prevalence was significantly higher in female students (60.9%) than in male students (53.3%) ( χ 2= 59.22 , P <0.05). GEE analysis showed that male students ( OR =0.59), primary school students ( OR =0.45), those who spent less than 6 hours per day sitting indoors ( OR =0.78), and those who used electronic devices for no more than 2 hours per day ( OR = 0.25 ) all had lower risks of screening myopia (all P <0.05). Students in regular high schools ( OR =2.01), those who engaged in activities inside the classroom during breaks ( OR =1.55), those who engaged in activities outside the classroom but within the school building during breaks ( OR = 1.46), those who never or only occasionally maintained proper reading and writing postures ( OR =1.32), those with less than 2 hours of daily outdoor activity ( OR =1.86), those with both parents being myopic ( OR =2.48), those with only the father being myopic ( OR =1.50), and those with only the mother being myopic ( OR =1.63) all had higher risks of screening detected myopia (all P ＜0.05). Interaction effect analysis revealed annual heterogeneity in the effects of daily outdoor activity time ≥2 h and daily electronic device use time >2 h on screening myopia prevalence (all P ＜0.05). Conclusions The screening myopia prevalence among children and adolescents in Tianhe District, Guangzhou, demonstrates a continuous downward trend. The impacts of daily outdoor activity duration and electronic device usage time on screening myopia exhibit annual heterogeneity. Dynamic and targeted myopia prevention and control strategies should be formulated in accordance with regional demographic features and environmental changes.

Objective To analyze the serological survey results of Changsha City in 2016 and 2024, and to investigate the short-term impact of adjusting the immunization program with two doses of mumps containing vaccine on the mumps antibody levels of healthy individuals in Changsha City. Methods Using the relevant data and samples from the mumps serological surveys conducted in 2016 and 2024, serum mumps IgG antibodies were quantitatively detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. The results from these two surveys were analyzed and compared using SPSS 25.0 software. Results The survey included 1 512 participants in 2016 and 1 398 in 2024. In 2024, both the seropositivity rate and IgG antibody levels against mumps in the healthy population were significantly higher than those in 2016 (all P<0.01). Specifically, the seropositivity rates and IgG antibody levels in the age groups of 8–17 months, 18 months–2 years, 3–4 years, and 5–9 years were significantly higher in 2024 compared to 2016 (all P < 0.001). However, among the participants in 2024, the 15–19 years age group showed relatively low seropositivity rate and IgG antibody levels. Conclusion Following the adjustment of the two-dose MuCV immunization strategy, the mumps IgG antibody levels among children aged 8 months to 9 years in Changsha have increased. It is necessary to continue implementing the routine two-dose MuCV vaccination strategy and to explore the necessity of strengthening and supplementing immunization for key groups, including the high-risk 5–9-year-old population and the immunologically vulnerable 15–19-year-old population.

OBJECTIVE To construct a comprehensive evaluation system for oral Chinese patent medicines in children that is compatible with pediatric physiological characteristics and the features of traditional Chinese medicine （TCM）， and provide a basis for the selection， pharmaceutical management， and medical insurance procurement of oral Chinese patent medicines in children.METHODS According to the Guidelines for the Management of Comprehensive Clinical Evaluation of Drugs （ 2021 Trial Edition ） and related policy documents and literatures， six first-level indicators were determined： safety， efficacy， suitability， economy， accessibility， and innovation. An initial indicator pool was constructed through literature retrieval， policy text analysis， and semi-structured expert interviews. A preliminary survey using a 5-point Likert scale was conducted to determine the primary indicator list. Two rounds of Delphi expert consultation were carried out. The analytic hierarchy process （AHP） was used to determine the weights and scores of indicators at all levels， and the methodological quality of the questionnaire and reliability were evaluated. Five oral Chinese patent medicines for pediatric respiratory diseases were selected for empirical evaluation. Two independent blinded reviewers scored the medicines， and the Kappa value was calculated to evaluate inter-rater consistency.RESULTS Both rounds of Delphi consulting had 21 experts， with a positive coefficient of 100% and an authoritative coefficient of 0.89. The Kendall’s W coefficients of concordance for the first and second rounds of Delphi expert consultation were 0.812 and 0.856， respectively （ P ＜0.01）. The consistency ratios of all AHP judgment matrices ranged from 0.032 to 0.087 （all ＜0.10）. The Cronbach’s α coefficient was 0.847. A comprehensive evaluation system for oral Chinese patent medicines in children was established， comprising 6 first-level indicators， 25 second-level indicators， and 78 third-level indicators. The weights of the first-level indicators were 0.32， 0.24， 0.16， 0.13， 0.10 and 0.05， respectively， for safety， effectiveness， suitability， economy， accessibility and innovation. The empirical evaluation showed that Xiao’er chiqiao qingre granules obtained the highest comprehensive score （90.8 points）， followed by Xiao’er feire kechuan oral liquid （86.3 points）， Ertong qingfei oral liquid （82.8 points）， Xiao’er xiaoji zhike oral liquid （82.0 points）， and Jinzhen oral liquid （81.5 points）. The inter-rater consistency Kappa value was 0.91.CONCLUSIONS The comprehensive evaluation system for oral Chinese patent medicines in children constructed in this study， includes 12 pediatric-specific third-level indicators and integrates key evaluation points of both traditional Chinese and Western medicine. It demonstrates good consistency and reliability， with good operability and reproducibility.

ObjectiveTo explore the effects of electroacupuncture at governor vessel or Jiaji acupoints on the activation of lumbar spinal cord neurons and the recovery of motor function in paralyzed hind limbs in rats with complete transection of spinal cord injury. MethodsTwenty adult female SD rats were selected. Among them， 15 rats underwent the complete transection of the 10th thoracic spinal cord and were randomly divided into the Control group， the electroacupuncture at governor vessel acupoints （GV） group and the electroacupuncture at Jiaji acupoints （JJ） group， with 5 rats in each group. The other 5 rats served as the Normal group. Electroacupuncture treatment was initiated 3 days after surgery in the GV and JJ groups and performed every other day. Basso-Beatti-Bresnahan （BBB） behavioral score was evaluated weekly. Eight weeks after the operation， cortical motor evoked potential （CMEP） detection was performed， followed by perfusion fixation， tissue harvest， frozen sectioning， and immunofluorescence staining experiments. Results① Both electroacupuncture treatments activated the expression of the excitatory marker c-Fos in L1 spinal cord neurons. The c-Fos⁺ activated neurons were mainly distributed in lamina Ⅳ， Ⅴ and Ⅶ of the L1 spinal cord， while no c-Fos⁺ neuron was observed in the Normal group and the Control group. The percentages of c-Fos⁺ neurons activated by electroacupuncture in the GV group and the JJ group were （10.23±0.15） % and （10.77±1.12） %， respectively， and there was no significant difference between the two electroacupuncture groups. ② vGluT1⁺ proprioceptive afferent nerve fibers were mainly distributed in the dorsal horn and lamina Ⅶ of intermediate zone of L1 spinal cord gray matter. In the dorsal horn of L1 spinal cord， the relative fluorescence intensity of vGluT1⁺ nerve fibers in the GV group and the JJ group were greater than that in the Control group， and that in the JJ group was greater than that in the GV group. In the lamina Ⅶ in intermediate zone of L1 spinal cord， where the central pattern generator （CPG） for hindlimb rhythmic movement is located， the relative fluorescence intensity of vGluT1⁺ nerve fibers in the GV group and the JJ group were significantly higher than that in the Control group， and the JJ group was also higher than the GV group； The lamina Ⅶ neurons innervated by vGluT1⁺ axon terminals were activated to express the excitatory marker c-Fos in the GV group and the JJ group. ③ The immunofluorescence staining results of acetylcholinesterase （ChAT） in the ventral horn of L4 spinal cord of each group showed that the number of surviving ChAT⁺ motor neurons in the GV group （19.1±3.4， P=0.000 2） and JJ group （19.0±2.9， P=0.000 2） were higher than that in the Control group （9.9±1.9）. ④ The quantitative analysis of the vGluT2⁺ excitatory axonal terminals， vGAT⁺ inhibitory axonal terminals， and the ratio of vGluT2⁺/vGAT⁺ axonal terminals ［reflecting the excitation/inhibition （E/I） balance of motor neurons］ innervating ChAT⁺ motor neurons in the ventral horn of the L4 spinal cord revealed that all three indices were significantly higher in the GV and JJ groups than in the Control group. Moreover， the E/I ratio of motor neurons in the two electroacupuncture groups gradually reached the same level as normal and showed no statistical difference from the Normal group. ⑤ The electrophysiological and behavioral detection results showed that compared with the Control group， the latencies of CMEP in the GV group and the JJ group shortened， while their amplitudes increased. The BBB score of paralyzed hindlimbs showed that after 8 weeks of treatment， the scores of both the GV group （4.25±1.26， P=0.023 4） and the JJ group （4.75±0.96， P=0.000 2） were higher than those of the Control group （1.80±1.30）， but there was no statistical difference between the two electroacupuncture groups. ConclusionElectroacupuncture at GV or JJ acupoints may promote the afferent of vGluT1⁺ proprioceptive nerve fibers into the spinal cord， indicating the possibility to activate CPG neurons in lamina Ⅶ of L1 spinal cord； facilitate the survival of motor neurons in the L4 spinal cord and restore their excitatory/inhibitory balance， improving the motor function of the paralyzed hindlimbs in rats.

Objective: To evaluate the risk of donation-related adverse reactions, donation behavior, and contributions to the blood supply among donors aged 56-65 years following extension of the upper age limit for voluntary blood donation, and to provide real-world evidence for optimizing blood donation age policies in China. Methods: A multicenter retrospective cohort was established using blood donation databases from Hainan, Shenzhen, and Jiangxi. A total of 1 180 767 donors contributing 2 020 407 whole-blood and apheresis donations were included. Donations were classified by donor age at each donation into the 18-55-year and 56-65-year groups. Generalized estimating equation (GEE) models were used to compare the risks of overall, local, and systemic donation-related adverse reactions between the two age groups. Restricted cubic spline analysis was used to assess the continuous association between donor age and the risk of overall adverse reactions. Poisson GEE models were used to compare annual donation frequency, and donation participation and contributions to the blood supply among donors aged 56-65 years were evaluated. The study was approved by the Ethics Committee of the Institute of Blood Transfusion, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences (No.2025012) and registered with the Chinese Clinical Trial Registry (ChiCTR2500114960). Results: A total of 1 960 711 donations were included in the 18-55-year group and 59 696 in the 56-65-year group. The overall donation-related adverse reaction rates were 3.890‰and 0.704‰, respectively. Multivariable GEE analysis showed that, compared with donors aged 18-55 years, those aged 56-65 years had lower risks of overall adverse reactions (adjusted OR=0.294, 95%CI: 0.217-0.398, P<0.001) and systemic adverse reactions (adjusted OR=0.163, 95%CI: 0.101-0.263, P<0.001), whereas no statistically significant difference was observed in the risk of local adverse reactions (adjusted OR=1.337, 95%CI: 0.487-3.670, P=0.573). Donor age was nonlinearly associated with the risk of overall adverse reactions (P overall<0.001, P nonlinear<0.001), with the risk generally decreasing with increasing age between 18 and 65 years. The mean annual donation frequency was higher among donors aged 56-65 years than among those aged 18-55 years (1.63 vs 1.24 donations per year; adjusted IRR=1.34, 95%CI: 1.30-1.39, P<0.001). During the study period, donors aged 56-65 years contributed 2.95% of all donations; their whole-blood donations and whole-blood collection volume accounted for 2.36% and 2.37% of the corresponding totals, respectively. Conclusion: Under current health screening and standardized donor management, donors aged 56-65 years did not show an increased risk of short-term donation-related adverse reactions and demonstrated a higher annual donation frequency, together with a measurable contribution to the blood supply. These findings support appropriately extending the upper age limit for voluntary blood donation under strict health screening to broaden the donor pool and supplement the blood supply.

Background: s/Aims: Non-invasive models stratifying clinically significant portal hypertension (CSPH) are limited. Herein, we developed a new non-invasive model for predicting CSPH in patients with compensated cirrhosis and investigated whether carvedilol can prevent hepatic decompensation in patients with high-risk CSPH stratified using the new model. Methods: Non-invasive risk factors of CSPH were identified via systematic review and meta-analysis of studies involving patients with hepatic venous pressure gradient (HVPG). A new non-invasive model was validated for various performance aspects in three cohorts, i.e., a multicenter HVPG cohort, a follow-up cohort, and a carvediloltreating cohort. Results: In the meta-analysis with six studies (n=819), liver stiffness measurement and platelet count were identified as independent risk factors for CSPH and were used to develop the new “CSPH risk” model. In the HVPG cohort (n=151), the new model accurately predicted CSPH with cutoff values of 0 and –0.68 for ruling in and out CSPH, respectively. In the follow-up cohort (n=1,102), the cumulative incidences of decompensation events significantly differed using the cutoff values of <–0.68 (low-risk), –0.68 to 0 (medium-risk), and >0 (high-risk). In the carvediloltreated cohort, patients with high-risk CSPH treated with carvedilol (n=81) had lower rates of decompensation events than non-selective beta-blockers untreated patients with high-risk CSPH (n=613 before propensity score matching [PSM], n=162 after PSM). Conclusions Treatment with carvedilol significantly reduces the risk of hepatic decompensation in patients with high-risk CSPH stratified by the new model.

Body weight abnormalities, including overweight, obesity, and underweight, have become a dual public health challenge in Chinese adults: overweight and obesity lead to a variety of chronic complications, while underweight increases the risks of malnutrition, sarcopenia, and organ dysfunction. To systematically address these issues, multidisciplinary experts in endocrinology, sports science, nutrition, and psychiatry from various regions have held multiple weight management seminars. Based on the latest epidemiological data and clinical evidence, they expanded the guideline to include assessment and intervention strategies for underweight, in addition to the core content of obesity management. This guideline outlines the etiological mechanisms, evaluation methods, and multidimensional management strategies for overweight and obesity, covering key areas such as diagnosis and assessment, medical nutrition therapy, exercise prescription, pharmacological intervention, and psychological support. It is intended to provide a scientific and standardized approach to weight management across the adult population, aiming to curb the rising prevalence of obesity, mitigate complications associated with abnormal body weight, and improve nutritional status and overall quality of life.

Turning to critical illness is a common stage of various diseases and injuries before death. Patients usually have complex health conditions, while the treatment process involves a wide range of content, along with high requirements for doctor′s professionalism and multi-specialty teamwork, as well as a great demand for time-sensitive treatments. However, this is not matched with critical care professionals and the current state of medical care in China. Telemedicine, which shortens the distance of medical professionals and the gap of disease diagnosis and treatments in various regions through electronic information, can effectively solve the current problem. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop a standardized, high-quality visualization telemedicine round system .Therefore, experts have been organized to search domestic and foreign literature on telemedicine round for critically ill patients and to form this consensus based on clinical experiences so as to further improve the level of critical care treatments in regions.

Objective To explore the clinical and pathological characteristics of medullary thyroid carcinoma(MTC)combined with papillary thyroid carcinoma(PTC),and to improve the detection rate of mixed thyroid tumors.Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinicopathological data of 11 cases of MTC combined with PTC diagnosed in the Department of Pathology,Jiangsu Province Hospital on Integration of Chinese and Western Medicine from April 2010 to April 2025,and analysis.Results Among the 11 patients,there were 4 males and 7 females with a median age of 57 years.The preoperative puncture pathology of 11 cases was not diagnosed as MTC combined with PTC.All patients underwent intraoperative rapid pathological diagnosis.Among them,5 cases were MTC combined with PTC,3 cases were PTC combined with thyroid follicular neoplasm,and the rest were diagnosed with single tumor(PTC or MTC).Conventional pathology diagnosed that all 11 patients had MTC combined with PTC,among which 2 cases were mixed MTC-PTC,and 6 cases were combined with multinodular goiter,and 3 cases combined with chronic lymphocytic thyroiditis.The histological morphology of MTC and PTC was diverse,presenting in arrangements such as papillary,island,follicular or solid.MTC cells are round,oval,spindle-shaped or plasma cell-like,with indistinct boundaries.The cytoplasm is eosinophilic,bicolotropic or transparent.The nucleus is round,irregular or spindle-shaped,with rough chromatin that does not have the characteristics of PTC cell nuclei.Amyloid deposits are seen in the interstitium.Immunohistochemistry expresses calcitonin(CT)and carcinoembryonic antigen(CEA),but does not express thyroglobulin(Tg).Special staining shows Congo red as brick red,and under a polarizing microscope,it appears as a refractive apple green.The nuclei of PTC cells are round or oval,and the cytoplasm is eosinophilic or bicolotropic.The nuclei are enlarged and arranged in a crowded manner.Nuclear grooves and pseudo-inclusions within the nucleus can be seen.Immunohistochemistry expressed thyroid transcription factor-1,paired box gene 8,and mesothelial cell membrane protein protenin mesothelial cell membrane protenin-1,Tg,galectin-3,cytokeratin are not expressed.CT and CEA are not expressed.Special staining is negative for Congo red.Conclusion MTC combined with PTC is relatively rare.There are no special manifestations in clinical features and imaging examinations.Preoperative puncture pathology and intraoperative rapid pathology are difficult to make a clear diagnosis.Clinicians and pathologists should avoid missed diagnoses or misdiagnoses.
