Uveitis is a blinding inflammatory disease that affects multiple structures within the eye, posing significant risks to patients' vision and mental health. Current treatments mainly involve glucocorticoids and immunosuppressants, which are associated with significant side effects, high relapse rates, and substantial costs. Recent research suggests that the gut microbiota may play a role in the development of uveitis through the gut-eye axis, with related metabolites also influencing disease progression. Modulating the gut microbiota or its metabolites could offer new therapeutic avenues for uveitis. This review explores the relationship between gut microbiota and various uveitis-associated diseases, such as systemic sarcoidosis, Vogt-Koyanagi-Harada syndrome, Behcet's disease, multiple sclerosis, and birdshot chorioretinopathy. It also discusses advancements in microbiota-related therapies, including probiotics and prebiotics, antibiotics, immunomodulators, phage therapy, and fecal microbiota transplantation. The aim is to provide a reference for the development of new therapies targeting specific microbial communities and genetic markers associated with uveitis, thereby promoting the realization of precision medicine.

Nuclear factor-erythroid 2-related factor 2 （Nrf2）/glutathione peroxidase 4 （GPX4） signaling pathway plays a key role in the occurrence and development of tumors， and is involved in tumor cell proliferation， apoptosis， ferroptosis， invasion， migration， and drug resistance. Based on the Nrf2/GPX4 signaling pathway， this paper summarizes the research progress of the anti- tumor effects of traditional Chinese medicine. It is found that flavonoids （ginkgetin， luteolin， etc.）， terpenoids （atractylenolide， cucurbitacin B， etc.）， saponins （polyphyllin Ⅰ， polyphyllin Ⅶ）， ester （brusatol） and other effective components， and traditional Chinese medicine extracts （total coumarins in Pileostegia tomentella and total flavonoids of Pterocarya hupehensis Skan）， traditional Chinese medicine compounds （Fushao diqin fang， Xiaoai jiedu fang， etc.） can promote ferroptosis in tumor cells by inhibiting Nrf2/GPX4 signaling pathway and the expressions of its upstream and downstream factor proteins， as well as by increasing Fe2+ levels and lipid peroxidation， thereby exerting an antitumor effect.

Blood resource shortages, characterized by regional imbalance, seasonal fluctuations, and expiration-related wastage, pose a critical challenge to China's public health system. Cryopreserved red blood cell (RBC) technology, with its ultra-long preservation period, transfusion efficacy, and safety, offers a strategic pathway to alleviate chronic blood shortages and optimize resource allocation. This article systematically reviews the technological evolution of RBC cryopreservation, clarifies its core advantages, and identifies bottlenecks and improvement strategies in large-scale application. The establishment of a regularized cryopreserved RBC bank holds multidimensional strategic value; however, its practical implementation requires resolving challenges such as thawing timeliness, standardization gaps, and insufficient grassroots equipment. Future advancements should prioritize glycerol-free washing-free cryopreservation technologies, post-thaw extended preservation additive formulations, and intelligent thawing equipment to overcome throughput and spatiotemporal constraints, thereby providing robust technical support for building a regularized cryopreserved RBC bank and enhancing the efficiency of China's blood security framework.

ObjectiveChinese patent medicines for cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases are diverse and complex in their efficacy. The traditional classification method based on efficacy categories has certain limitations and cannot meet the clinical needs for individualized drug selection and variety comparison. This article， based on the formulation compatibility analysis technology of "Tangye Jingfa Tu"， clarifies the composition and efficacy characteristics of common Chinese patent medicines used for cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases， providing support for the precise selection of these medicines. MethodsFifty-six representative Chinese patent medicines， covering all the efficacy subcategories of "stasis-resolving agents" in the National Basic Medical Insurance， Work Injury Insurance， and Maternity Insurance Drug Catalogue （2023） （more than 50% of the total）， were selected for the study. Within the knowledge system of "Tangye Jingfa Tu"， the compatibility structure of herbal flavors and the proportion structure of herbal quantities for each Chinese patent medicine were determined. The correlation between these structures and the efficacy categories was analyzed to identify the similarities and differences among the selected Chinese patent medicines. Additionally， the efficacy was reclassified and compared according to the theoretical framework of tonifying and purging methods of five Zang organs in the "Tangye Jingfa Tu". ResultsThe representative Chinese patent medicines included in the analysis were Shexiang Baoxin pills， Danshen tablets， Qili Qiangxin capsules， Breviscapine tablets， etc.， covering all the efficacy subcategories of "stasis-resolving agents". Among the 56 representative Chinese patent medicines， salty flavor was the most common （48）， followed by pungent （33）， and sweet （26）. According to the dominant herbal flavor， salty flavor was the most common （37）， followed by pungent （9）， and sour （5）. According to the dominant herbal quantity， salty flavor was the most common （27）， followed by sour （7）， and pungent （5）. Furthermore， Chinese patent medicines with different efficacy subtypes showed different flavor characteristics. For example， most Qi-invigorating and blood-activating agents contained sweet drugs for tonifying the spleen （9/10）， most Qi-moving and blood-activating agents contained pungent drugs for tonifying the liver （7/8）， and all kidney-invigorating and blood-activating agents contained bitter drugs for tonifying the kidneys （6/6）. However， the efficacy classification of individual medicines did not always align with the compatibility characteristics of their formulas， as seen with Dengyin Naotong capsules. ConclusionThe formulations of Chinese patent medicines for cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases predominantly feature salty， sour， and pungent flavors， which largely conform to the therapeutic principles of "nourishing the heart with salt and soothing the heart with sour" and the liver-heart， heart-spleen mother-child treatment relationship shown in the "Tangye Jingfa Tu". Using the "Tangye Jingfa Tu" framework to conduct research on the structure and efficacy characteristics of Chinese patent medicines is objective and effective.

Elimination of malaria is one of important global public health targets. Malaria was once highly prevalent in China; however, China was certified malaria-free by WHO in 2021 following decades of integrated control efforts. As an effective intervention, health education plays a critical role during the progress towards elimination of malaria in China, which remarkably increases the public awareness and action capability of malaria prevention and control knowledge. In addition, health education is of great significance to reduce the risk of re-establishment of imported malaria following disease elimination in the country. This article reviews the application of community-based and school-based health education, health education activities targeting entry-exit personnel and healthcare workers, and diversified media propagation in the progress towards elimination of malaria in China, so as to provide insights into formulation of malaria control strategy during the post-elimination stage in the country.

Objective: To explore the interactive mechanisms of middle school students lifestyle with depressive and anxiety symptoms, so as to provide a basis for constructing a precise prevention system of middle school students mental health. Methods: From October to December in 2024, a stratified cluster random sampling method was used to select 6 251 middle school students from Guangxi. The Lifestyle Questionnaire, Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9), and Generalized Anxiety Disorder-7 ( GAD- 7) were used to investigate middle school students lifestyle, depressive symptoms and anxiety symptoms. The relationship of adolescent lifestyle with depressive and anxiety symptoms was analyzed through binary Logistic regression. The network analysis method was used to construct the network of middle school students lifestyle with depressive and anxiety symptoms. Results: A total of 1 690 individuals (27.0%) exhibited depressive symptoms, and 1 071 individuals (17.1%) exhibited anxiety symptoms. Binary Logistic regression analysis revealed that smoking, alcohol consumption, excessive intake of sugary drinks, insufficient vegetable intake, not eating breakfast daily, frequent consumption of fast food, prolonged sedentary time on both weekdays and weekends, insufficient sleep duration on weekdays and weekends, and excessive screen time on weekdays were all associated with depressive symptom ( OR =1.19-2.07) and anxiety symptom ( OR =1.20-1.91) in middle school students(all P ＜0.05). Additionally, excessive screen time on weekends was associated only with depressive symptoms ( OR =1.35, P <0.05). The connection between the lifestyle-depressive symptom cluster was mainly through "breakfast" and "suicidal ideation" (weight=0.31); the connection between the lifestyle-anxiety symptom cluster was mainly through "sedentary time on weekdays" and "uncontrollable worry" (weight=0.34). In the depressive symptom network, "depressed mood" had the highest node strength; in the anxiety symptom network, "uncontrollable worry" had the highest node strength. "Suicidal ideation" was a key bridge node between lifestyle and depressive and anxiety symptoms. Conclusions Unhealthy lifestyles are significant modifiable risk factors for depressive and anxiety symptoms among middle school students. Regular breakfast intake and management of sedentary behavior should be prioritized as important intervention entry points.

Objective: To explore the potential category patterns of risk prevention and control behaviors of HIV infection among young students who have sex with men (MSM) and their impact on HIV infection and late detection, aiming to optimize intervention strategies. Methods: From September 2017 to December 2024, a total of 1 637 MSM young students in Tianjin were recruited through both online and offline channels. Latent class analysis was applied to classify 11 HIV risk prevention and control behaviors [condom use during the most recent anal sex in the past 6 months, consistent condom use, use of water based lubricants, abstinence from recreational drugs, regular on site professional testing, fixed sexual partners, partner testing, awareness of partner s HIV testing results, testing before sexual activity, nucleic acid testing, and use of pre exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) or post exposure prophylaxis (PEP)]. Multivariate Logistic regression analyzed associations between demographic characteristics/intervention services factors and latent classes. Differences in HIV infection and late detection across behavior patterns were compared. Results: HIV risk prevention and control behaviors among MSM students were classified into three latent classes:condom dependent group (38.42%), low prevention group (27.73%), and comprehensive prevention group (33.85%). Students who received condom promotion/testing services were more likely to belong to the comprehensive prevention group ( OR =5.58), while those who received peer education were less likely to the comprehensive prevention group ( OR =0.43) (both P <0.01). Among the MSM student population, the HIV infection rate was 4.83%, with 2.26% of cases detected late. The HIV infection rate (1.45%) and late detection proportion (0.82%) in the comprehensive prevention group were lower than those in the low prevention group (7.89% and 3.83%, respectively) ( χ 2=16.20, 7.31, both P <0.01). Conclusions HIV risk prevention and control behaviors among MSM young students exhibit significant heterogeneity. Comprehensive prevention strategies can effectively reduce HIV infection and late detection risks. It is necessary to optimize peer education content and improve the accessibility of diversified prevention measures such as PrEP/PEP to enhance HIV prevention and control.

Objective: To identify the core symptoms and bridge symptoms in the network structure among adolescents bullying victimization, anxiety and depressive symptoms, and to explore the interrelationships among these three variables, so as to provide a basis for the precise prevention of bullying behaviors and the improvement of adolescents psychological health conditions. Methods: From October to November 2023, a stratified cluster random sampling method was employed to select 4 759 middle and high school students from four cities in Guangxi: Beihai, Guigang, Hechi, and Laibin. The Chinese version of the Olweus Bully/Victim Questionnaire (OBVQ) was used to assess bullying victimization among adolescents, while the Generalized Anxiety Disorder-7 (GAD-7) and the Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9) were utilized to assess anxiety and depressive symptoms, respectively. The Bootnet package (version 1.6) in R software (version 4.4.1) was used to construct a network structure and analyze the associations between bullying victimization, anxiety symptoms and depressive symptoms among adolescents. Results: The reporting rates of depressive symptoms, anxiety symptoms, and bullying victimization among adolescents in Guangxi were 24.67%, 16.33%, and 16.58%, respectively. Network analysis revealed that the node with the highest expected influence was "property being taken or damaged", with a standardized expected influence (EI) index of 2.09. The top two nodes in terms of bridge expected influence were "thoughts of self harm or suicide" and "irritability", with standardized bridge expected influence (BEI) indices of 2.15 and 1.27, respectively. The stronger associations were observed between the node "property being taken or damaged" and the nodes "physical attacks such as hitting, kicking, pushing, or shoving" and "ridiculed due to accent", with edge weights of 0.43 and 0.35, respectively. Conclusion Targeting preventive measures against the symptoms with the highest expected influence and bridge expected influence in the network of bullying victimization, anxiety and depressive symptoms among adolescents may be an effective approach to reduce the negative impact of bullying victimization, anxiety and depressive symptoms on adolescents.

Autoimmune uveitis is a blinding intraocular inflammation primarily caused by immune dysregulation mediated by CD4+ T cells. CD4+ T cells differentiate into various functional subsets, including Th1, Th2, Th17, and Treg cells. These subsets participate in immune responses and mediate the initiation and resolution of inflammation by secreting different cytokines. This article primarily focuses on the functional characteristics and interplay network of Th1/Th2 and Th17/Treg cells, along with the specific effects of their key secreted cytokines(e.g., IFN-γ, TNF-α, IL-17, IL-10, TGF-β)in driving or suppressing ocular inflammation. The goal is to clarify the fundamental pathogenesis of this disease from the perspective of immune balance. Furthermore, this work explores potential therapeutic targets based on restoring the balance between Th1/Th2 and Th17/Treg, such as modulating the differentiation of specific subsets, blocking key pro-inflammatory cytokines, or enhancing anti-inflammatory functions. This investigation aims to provide a scientific rationale and guidance for optimizing existing diagnostic and therapeutic strategies, as well as developing new immunotherapies(e.g., biological agents, cell therapies).
