OBJECTIVE To conduct a comprehensive clinical evaluation of four nucleoside （acid） analogues that have been approved and marketed in China， such as entecavir， tenofovir disoproxil fumarate， tenofovir alafenamide fumarate， and tenofovir amibufenamide. METHODS According to the Guideline for the Administration of Clinical Comprehensive Evaluation of Drugs （2021 edition， trial implementation）， a comprehensive search was conducted across databases including CNKI， Wanfang Data， VIP， PubMed， the Cochrane Library， Embase， as well as relevant official websites. Drug package inserts， guidelines， consensus statements， and relevant literature for the four drugs were collected and subjected to a comprehensive evaluation across six dimensions： safety， efficacy， cost-effectiveness， innovativeness， suitability， and accessibility. RESULTS The scores for entecavir in terms of safety， efficacy， cost-effectiveness， innovativeness， suitability， and accessibility-along with its comprehensive score-were 13， 14， 13， 10， 18， and 6， totaling 74 points. For tenofovir disoproxil fumarate， the respective scores were 13， 17， 18， 8， 18， and 7， totaling 81 points. For tenofovir alafenamide fumarate， the scores were 14， 20， 12， 8， 18， and 5， totaling 77 points. Finally， for tenofovir amibufenamide， the scores were 10.5， 17， 10， 6， 15， and 4， totaling 62.5 points. CONCLUSIONS Tenofovir disoproxil fumarate， with the highest score， is recommended as the first-line option， suitable for adults， children， and pregnant women. However， caution is warranted for potential renal impairment. Tenofovir alafenamide fumarate is recommended as a second-line alternative， particularly for individuals at high risk for bone and renal damage. Entecavir has a score similar to tenofovir alafenamide fumarate but requires dosing on an empty stomach and dose adjustment based on renal function of patients. Tenofovir amibufenamide received the lowest score and is considered a weak recommendation. The clinical application of these nucleoside （acid） analogues should be individualized based on the patient’s age， physiological status， and risk factors.

ObjectiveTo investigate whether Shixiaosan can improve neurological function and inhibit ferroptosis in rats with cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury （CIRI） by regulating the nuclear factor E₂-related factor 2 （Nrf2）/solute carrier family 7 member 11 （SLC7A11）/glutathione peroxidase 4 （GPX4） pathway. MethodsA rat model of CIRI was established using the intraluminal filament method. Briefly， cervical blood vessels were separated， branches of the external carotid artery were ligated， and the common carotid artery and internal carotid artery were clamped. A nylon filament was inserted through the opening of the external carotid artery to the origin of the middle cerebral artery to block blood flow and induce cerebral ischemia. After 60-120 min of ischemia， the filament was withdrawn to restore blood flow， and the external carotid artery incision was ligated. The rats were divided into a CIRI group， a Shixiaosan low-dose （-L） group （intragastric administration of 1.26 g·kg^-1 Shixiaosan）， a Shixiaosan high-dose （-H） group （intragastric administration of 2.52 g·kg^-1 Shixiaosan）， a donepezil hydrochloride tablet （DON） group （intragastric administration of 0.45 mg·kg^-1 DON）， and a Shixiaosan -H + Nrf2 inhibitor （ML385） group （intragastric administration of 2.52 g·kg^-1 Shixiaosan combined with intraperitoneal injection of 30 mg·kg^-1 ML385）. An additional 12 rats underwent cervical artery separation followed by incision suturing and served as the control group. Equal volumes of double-distilled water were administered to the CIRI and control groups. Neurological function impairment was assessed using the modified Garcia JH score. Magnetic resonance imaging was used to determine the cerebral infarct volume ratio. Hematoxylin-eosin （HE） staining and Prussian blue staining were performed to observe neuronal injury and iron accumulation in the ischemic penumbra， respectively. Transmission electron microscopy was used to examine the ultrastructure of neuronal mitochondria in the ischemic penumbra. Commercial kits were used to measure ferrous iron （Fe²⁺）， malondialdehyde （MDA）， reduced glutathione （GSH） content， and reactive oxygen species （ROS） activity in the ischemic penumbra. The BODIPY （581/591） C11 fluorescent probe was used to detect intracellular lipid peroxidation levels. Western blot was performed to detect protein expression levels of Nrf2， SLC7A11， GPX4， transferrin receptor 1 （TFRC）， ferritin heavy chain （FHC）， and ferritin light chain （FLC） in the ischemic penumbra. ResultsCompared with the control group， the CIRI group exhibited neuronal injury in the ischemic penumbra， characterized by reduced neuron numbers， nucleolar shrinkage， and interstitial edema. Marked iron accumulation was observed in the tissue. Neuronal mitochondria showed atrophy and rupture， with reduced mitochondrial cristae and increased membrane density. The cerebral infarct volume ratio， Fe²⁺ content， MDA content， ROS activity， and lipid peroxidation levels were increased， whereas the modified Garcia JH score， GSH content， and protein expression levels of Nrf2， SLC7A11， GPX4， FHC， and FLC were decreased， and TFRC protein expression was increased （P<0.05）. Compared with the CIRI group， the Shixiaosan -L group， Shixiaosan -H group， and DON group showed attenuated neuronal injury in the ischemic penumbra， reduced iron accumulation， alleviated mitochondrial damage， decreased cerebral infarct volume ratio， Fe²⁺ and MDA contents， ROS activity， and lipid peroxidation levels， as well as increased modified Garcia JH scores， GSH content， and protein expression levels of Nrf2， SLC7A11， GPX4， FHC， and FLC， while TFRC protein expression was decreased （P<0.05）. The magnitude of changes in all indicators was greater in the Shixiaosan -H group than in the Shixiaosan -L group （P<0.05）. Compared with the Shixiaosan -H group， all measured indicators in the Shixiaosan -H + ML385 group showed opposite trends （P<0.05）. ConclusionShixiaosan may inhibit ferroptosis and restore neurological function in rats with CIRI by activating the Nrf2/SLC7A11/GPX4 pathway.

Objective To investigate the correlation between seasonal blood pressure （BP） variability and total burden score of cerebral small vessel disease （CSVD） with different severities. Methods The patients with CSVD who were consecutively admitted were enrolled， and according to the total burden score based on head MRI， they were divided into control group （CSVD 0 points）， mild group （CSVD 1‒2 points）， and moderate-to-severe group （CSVD 3‒4 points）.General information was collected from all patients， as well as 24-hour ambulatory blood pressure monitoring （ABPM） during warm and cold seasons. The correlation between ABPM parameters in different seasons and the imaging burden of different severities of CSVD was analyzed. Results A total of 145 patients were enrolled， with 29 patients in the control group，64 in the mild group， and 52 in the moderate-to-severe group.Compared with the control group， the mild group and the moderate-to-severe group had significantly higher age（F=9.721，P=0.001）， 24-hour systolic blood pressure （SBP） in hot season（F=6.572，P=0.002）， daytime SBP in hot season（F=6.460，P=0.002）， daytime diastolic blood pressure （DBP） in hot season（F=5.802，P=0.004）， nighttime SBP in hot season（F=8.508，P<0.001）. Compared with the control group， the moderate-to-severe group had significantly higher levels of 24-hour DBP in hot season（F=4.564，P=0.012）， nighttime DBP in hot season（F=6.294，P=0.002），24-hour SBP in cold season（F=7.012，P=0.001）， 24-hour DBP in cold season（F=4.527，P=0.012），daytime SBP in cold season（F=5.708，P=0.004），daytime DBP in cold season（F=3.138，P=0.046），nighttime SBP in cold season（F=9.154，P<0.001）， and nighttime DBP in cold season（F=8.006，P=0.001）. Compared with the control group， the mild group and the moderate-to-severe group had a significantly higher proportion of patients with abnormal BP circadian rhythm in hot season （χ2=13.059，P=0.001） and cold season （χ2=10.091，P=0.006）.The ordinal logistic regression analysis showed that age （OR=1.147， 95%CI 1.084‒1.214） was an independent risk factor for CSVD， and compared with the patients with dipper-type blood pressure in hot season， the patients with non-dipper blood pressure pattern had a risk of CSVD increased by 13.282 times （OR=13.282， 95% CI 2.379‒74.159）， while those with reverse-dipper blood pressure pattern had a risk of CSVD increased by 25.569 times（OR=25.569，95%CI 3.061‒213.551）. Conclusion The imaging burden score of CSVD increases with the increase in age and the proportion of abnormal circadian blood pressure pattern in hot season， and both age and abnormal circadian blood pressure pattern in hot season are independent risk factors for the imaging burden of CSVD.

Objective To assess the application value of mycoplasma pneumonia(MP)real-time fluorescence of RNA simultaneous amplification and testing(SAT)and MP antibody(MP-Ab)in the diagnosis of MP pneumonia(MPP)in children.Methods A total of 242 children with community-acquired pneumonia hospitalized at Beijing Haidian Hospital from September 2023 to October 2024 were enrolled as subjects.The children were divided into MPP group(n=193)and non-MPP group(n=49)based on MPP diagnosis.All children underwent simultaneous MP-SAT testing and initial MP-Ab detection within 24h of admission.MP-SAT results were monitored until they turned negative,with retesting for MP-Ab on 5-7d post-hospitalization in negative cases.The study compared diagnostic accuracy between MP-SAT and MP-Ab methods,while analyzing correlations between MP-SAT negative conversion time and clinical cure duration.Results For children with disease duration ≤ 7 days,MP-SAT demonstrated higher sensitivity than MP-Ab,with statistically significant difference(P＜0.001).The concordance between MP-SAT and initial MP-Ab test results was weak(Kappa=0.072),while the consistency between MP-SAT and follow-up MP-Ab test results was moderate(Kappa=0.614,P＜0.00 1).Both the clinical cure time and SAT seroconversion time were shorter with doxycycline treatment compared to azithromycin therapy.Conclusion The results of MP-SAT can be used to evaluate the condition of MPP children and guide the timely discontinuation of antibiotics.

Abstract To analyzes the characteristics, problems and enlightenment of physical activity observation tools, so as to provide reference for researchers to quickly and accurately choose appropriate observation tools to evaluate children s and adolescents physical activity. Literature search is conducted in eight databases of Chinese and English, including CNKI, Wanfang, VIP, Web of Science, PubMed, Medline, ERIC, and SPORTDiscus. Ultimately, eight observation tools for assessing physical activity in children and adolescents are included. Through summarization and comparison, it is found that the applications of those tools cover multiple age groups, the observation indicators cover multiple dimensions for each with varying emphases, and the applicable contexts vary in their specific background information, and recording methods tend to be quantitative. However, several issues remain to be addressed in practical applications. First, the observation indicators need to be supplemented and improved; second, physical activity in community environments and academic classrooms requires further attention; third, physical activity intensity needs to be scientifically evaluated; fourth, observation and recording methods need to be integrated and innovated; fifth, the number of observation subjects needs to be expanded. Future research could focus on developing observation tools tailored to the characteristics of Chinese children and adolescents, while drawing on foreign observation tools to comprehensively assess physical activity among children and adolescents.

Background The early lesions of pneumoconiosis that cannot be clearly shown by digital radiography (DR) chest films can be clearly displayed in high-resolution CT (HRCT). HRCT enables systematic observation of the evolution and progression of pneumoconiosis, providing reliable evidence for diagnosis. Objective To provide reliable evidences for the early screening of pneumoconiosis, By analyzing the imaging difference between HRCT and DR chestfilms in pneumoconiosis screening. Methods Six casting workers in a casting forging company suspected of early stage of pneumoconiosis through regular occupational health examination screening were recruited , and 64 rows of spiral CT thin layer were scanned and reconstructed by high-resolution bone algorithm. Compare the imaging findings of early stage of pneumoconiosis small shadow on DR chest film and HRCT and make diagnostic conclusion. Results All six subjects had Multiple small nodules and/or irregular shadows in the lungs were found in all six patients’ DR chest films, but the density and distribution of small shadows did not meet the diagnostic criteria of pneumoconiosis. The HRCT review showed that, dispersively distributed micro nodule shadows and/or short-thread shape thin shadows in the lung in four patients, the rest two patients' HRCT images showed multiple localized pleural thickening and partial calcification and multiple nodules like pleural uplift thickening. Other lesions were also identified, including lung multiple localized pleural thickening and calcification in 3 cases, lung multiple cystic bronchiectasis in 1 case, inflammatory nodules in 2 cases, of chronic lesions in 2 case. Through comprehensive analysis, early stage of pneumoconiosis were seen in 4 patients, among which 3 patients engaged in sand mixing and sand clearing presenting early stage of silicosis; 1 patient engaged in moulding sand manufacturing presenting early stage of foundry worker pneumoconiosis. Conclusion Compared with DR chest film, HRCT can more accurately show the morphology and distribution of lesions, and has significant advantages in identifying small shadows in early stage of pneumoconiosis and other lung diseases. The diffuse small nodules in the lung is not a characteristic manifestation of pneumoconiosis, and cannot be used as the basis for the diagnosis of early stage of pneumoconiosis alone. Even with a clear occupational dust exposure history, an early stage of pneumoconiosis diagnosis can be made after excluding other lung diseases. After dust work, especially silicon dust work workers showing abnormal changes in X-ray chest film, review of the HRCT should be conducted even if the small shadow distribution does not meet the diagnostic criteria of pneumoconiosis, so as to early detection of pneumoconiosis patients and high-risk groups.
