Objective: To explore the associations between caregivers nutrition literacy and pediatric nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), so as to provide scientific evidence for the key contents of family intervention measures. Methods: In September 2022, a study involving 1 609 thirdgrade students and their caregivers from six schools in Yinzhou, Haishu, and Zhenhai Districts of Ningbo City, Zhejiang Province, was conducted. Venous blood samples were collected to measure lipid profiles and investigate the prevalence of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) among the children. Family Food Environment Questionnaire was used to assess the nutrition literacy levels of the caregivers. Generalized linear regression analysis was employed to explore the correlation between caregivers nutrition literacy levels and the prevalence of NAFLD in children. Results: Among the surveyed students, 191 were in the NAFLD group, whereas 1 418 were in the nonNAFLD group. The median nutrition literacy score of caregivers in the NAFLD group and nonNAFLD group all were 11.00 (9.00,12.00), which was not significantly different (Z=-0.40, P=0.71). The generalized linear regression results revealed that the level of nutrition literacy of caregivers had no significant effect on childrens Triglyceride-glucose (TyG) index and Triglyceride-glucose-Waisttoheight ratio (TyG-WHtR) [β(95%CI) were 0.001(-0.005-0.006) and 0.000(-0.014-0.014), P>0.05]. Conclusions The nutrition literacy level of caregivers has no significant correlation with the direct incidence of NAFLD in children. As for family intervention measures, it is necessary not only to improve the nutrition literacy level of caregivers but also to effectively apply nutritional knowledge in practice to optimize health management.

Objective To analyze the influencing factors of plastic bronchitis in children with Mycoplasma pneumoniae infection and put forward targeted prevention suggestions. Methods The clinical data of children with Mycoplasma pneumoniae infection who were admitted to Chengdu Third People's Hospital from September 2022 to February 2024 were retrospectively analyzed . According to whether plastic bronchitis occurred, they were divided into plastic group (n=118) and non-plastic group (n=184), and the differences between the two groups were compared and analyzed. Univariate and multivariate logistics regression analysis equations were used to analyze the independent influencing factors of plastic bronchitis in children with mycoplasma pneumoniae infection. Results Among the 302 children with Mycoplasma pneumoniae infection , 118 cases were diagnosed with plastic bronchitis. Analysis showed that the children’s age, duration of fever, hospital stay, pleural effusion rate, number of bronchoscopic lavage, allergy history, endoscopic mucosal erosion rate, WBC, NE%, LY%, CRP, LDH, PCT and D-D were the single factors influencing the occurrence of plastic bronchitis in children with mycoplasma pneumoniae infection. Binary logistics regression analysis revealed that age (OR=2.137, P=0.033, 95% CI: 1.132-16.603), allergy history （OR=3.028, P=0.014, 95% CI: 1.261-864), NE% (OR=2.395, P=0.031, 95% CI: 1.087-5.274), CRP (OR=3.864, P=0.004, 95% CI: 1.563-3.864), PCT (OR=4.125, P=0.001, 95% CI: 1.793-3.864), and D-D (OR=3.920, P=0.002, 95% CI: 1.632-3.864) were independent risk factors for plastic bronchitis in children with mycoplasma pneumoniae infection (P<0.05). Conclusion Age, allergy history, NE%, CRP, PCT and D-D are independent risk factors for plastic bronchitis in children with mycoplasma pneumoniae infection . It is necessary to take clinical intervention measures to reduce the occurrence risk.

Cemental tear is a rare and indetectable condition unless obvious clinical signs present with the involvement of surrounding periodontal and periapical tissues. Due to its clinical manifestations similar to common dental issues, such as vertical root fracture, primary endodontic diseases, and periodontal diseases, as well as the low awareness of cemental tear for clinicians, misdiagnosis often occurs. The critical principle for cemental tear treatment is to remove torn fragments, and overlooking fragments leads to futile therapy, which could deteriorate the conditions of the affected teeth. Therefore, accurate diagnosis and subsequent appropriate interventions are vital for managing cemental tear. Novel diagnostic tools, including cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT), microscopes, and enamel matrix derivatives, have improved early detection and management, enhancing tooth retention. The implementation of standardized diagnostic criteria and treatment protocols, combined with improved clinical awareness among dental professionals, serves to mitigate risks of diagnostic errors and suboptimal therapeutic interventions. This expert consensus reviewed the epidemiology, pathogenesis, potential predisposing factors, clinical manifestations, diagnosis, differential diagnosis, treatment, and prognosis of cemental tear, aiming to provide a clinical guideline and facilitate clinicians to have a better understanding of cemental tear.

Objective To explore the influencing factors of the quality of gastric mucosal preparation before gastroscopy on the clarity of gastric mucosa under gastroscopy.Methods Clinical data of 240 patients who underwent painless gastroscopy for the first time at the endoscopy center of a tertiary hospital in Wenzhou from September 1,2023 to December 31,2024 were analyzed.The mucosal clarity score under gas-troscopy was recorded during the gastroscopy process,and the influencing factors on the qualification rate of gastric mucosal preparation quality for painless gastroscopy were analyzed.Results The unqualified rate of gastric mucosal preparation in patients undergoing painless gastroscopy was 52.9％,with the highest rates in the upper part of the stomach(17.1％)and the bottom of the stomach(12.1％),followed by the lower part of the stomach(9.2％),the antrum(7.9％)and bulb(3.8％),the lowest rates in the esophagus(2.9％).The quality of gastric mucosal preparation was relatively poor.Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that,BMI,Helicobacter pylori(Hp)infection,abnormal gastric juice characteristics,and gastric polyps were independent risk factors affecting gastric mucosal preparation(OR=2.784,3.501,3.873,3.611,P＜0.05).Conclusion Insufficient preparation of gastric mucosa is associated with high BMI,Hp infection,abnormal gastric juice characteristics,and gastric polyps.To address patients with these risk factors,individualized pre-treatment plans should be developed based on routine fasting to optimize endoscopic field of view and ensure examination quality.

Traditional Chinese medicines (TCMs) possess a rich historical background, unique theoretical framework, remarkable therapeutic efficacy, and abundant resources. However, the modernization and internationalization of TCMs have faced significant obstacles due to their diverse ingredients and unknown mechanisms. To gain deeper insights into the phytochemicals and ensure the quality control of TCMs, there is an urgent need to enhance analytical techniques. Currently, two-dimensional (2D) chromatography, which incorporates two independent separation mechanisms, demonstrates superior separation capabilities compared to the traditional one-dimensional (1D) separation system when analyzing TCMs samples. Over the past decade, new techniques have been continuously developed to gain actionable insights from complex samples. This review presents the recent advancements in the application of multidimensional chromatography for the quality evaluation of TCMs, encompassing 2D-gas chromatography (GC), 2D-liquid chromatography (LC), as well as emerging three-dimensional (3D)-GC, 3D-LC, and their associated data-processing approaches. These studies highlight the promising potential of multidimensional chromatographic separation for future phytochemical analysis. Nevertheless, the increased separation capability has resulted in higher-order data sets and greater demands for data-processing tools. Considering that multidimensional chromatography is still a relatively nascent research field, further hardware enhancements and the implementation of chemometric methods are necessary to foster its robust development.

OBJECTIVE To construct a risk prediction model for bloodstream infection （BSI） induced by carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae （CRKP）. METHODS Retrospective analysis was conducted for clinical data from 253 patients with BSI induced by K. pneumoniae in the First Hospital of Qinhuangdao from January 2019 to June 2022. Patients admitted from January 2019 to December 2021 were selected as the model group （n＝223）， and patients admitted from January 2022 to June 2022 were selected as the validation group （n＝30）. The model group was divided into the CRKP subgroup （n＝56） and the carbapenem- sensitive K. pneumoniae （CSKP） subgroup （n＝167） based on whether CRKP was detected or not. The univariate and multivariate Logistic analyses were performed on basic information such as gender， age and comorbid underlying diseases in two subgroups of patients； independent risk factors were screened for CRKP-induced BSI， and a risk prediction model was constructed. The established model was verified with patients in the validation group as the target. RESULTS Admissioning to intensive care unit （ICU）， use of immunosuppressants， empirical use of carbapenems and empirical use of antibiotics against Gram-positive coccus were independent risk factors of CRKP-induced BSI （ORs were 3.749， 3.074， 2.909， 9.419， 95%CIs were 1.639-8.572， 1.292- 7.312， 1.180-7.717， 2.877-30.840， P＜0.05）. Based on this， a risk prediction model was established with a P value of 0.365. The AUC of the receiver operating characteristic （ROC） curve of the model was 0.848 [95%CI （0.779， 0.916）， P＜0.001]， and the critical score was 6.5. In the validation group， the overall accuracy of the prediction under the model was 86.67%， and the AUC of ROC curve was 0.926 [95%CI （0.809， 1.000]， P＜0.001]. CONCLUSIONS Admission to ICU， use of immunosuppressants， empirical use of carbapenems and empirical use of antibiotics against Gram-positive coccus are independent risk factors of CRKP- induced BSI. The CRKP-induced BSI risk prediction model based on the above factors has good prediction accuracy.

Objective To investigate the value of thrombomodulin(TM),thrombin-antithrombin complex(TAT),α2 plasmin inhibitor-plasmin complex(PIC)and tissue plasminogen activator-inhibitor complex(t-PAIC)in the diagnosis and prognosis of neonatal disseminated intravascular coagulation(DIC).Methods Eighty-seven DIC neonates(the observation group)were included and divided into the survival group(66 cases)and the death group(21 cases)based on their outcomes at discharge.And 50 healthy newborns born in the same period were selected as the control group.The clinical data of neonates were collected,and risk factors of neonatal DIC were analyzed by Logistic regression.The differences of TM,TAT,PIC and t-PAIC levels in different groups were analyzed.The receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve was used to analyze values of TM,TAT,PIC and t-PAIC in the diagnosis and prognosis of neonatal DIC.Results The incidence of low Apgar score,birth asphyxia,IVH,sepsis and maternal pregnancy induced hypertension syndrome(PIH)were higher in the observation group than those in the control group(P＜0.05).Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that low Apgar score,birth asphyxia,sepsis and PIH were independent risk factors for neonatal DIC.TM,TAT,PIC and t-PAIC levels were higher in the observation group than those in the control group(P＜0.05).ROC curve showed that the combined diagnosis value of TM,TAT,PIC and t-PAIC was better than that of single diagnosis of neonatal DIC.TM and TAT levels were higher in the death group than those in the survival group(P＜0.05),and there were no significant differences in PIC and t-PAIC levels between the two groups.Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that elevated TAT level was an independent risk factor for neonatal DIC prognosis.ROC curve showed that when TAT was 21.72 μg/L,the area under the curve for predicting neonatal DIC prognosis was 0.772(95%CI:0.666-0.878),and the sensitivity and specificity were 76.2%and 71.2%,respectively.Conclusion The combined application of TM,TAT,PIC and t-PAIC has important clinical value in diagnosis and prognosis evaluation of neonatal DIC.

Objective:To explore the optimal regimen of standardized mite allergen immunotherapy for airway allergic diseases in children, and to observe the clinical efficacy, safety and compliance.Method:Use a retrospective real-world study, clinical data from 156 children aged 5-16 years who received subcutaneous immunotherapy (SCIT) with double mite allergen preparation in the pediatrics department of the Third Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat sen University from June 2019 to September 2020 were selected for allergic rhinitis (AR) and/or allergic asthma (bronchial asthma, BA), including gender, age, total VAS(visual analogue scale) score and CSMS(combined symptom and medication scores) score at different time points (before treatment, 4-6 months, 1 year, and 2 years after initiation of desensitization), peripheral blood eosinophil counts (EOS), serum total IgE (tIgE), specific IgE (tIgE), and serum IgE (tIgE), specific IgE (sIgE), tIgG4, and incidence of local and systemic adverse reactions. All patients had a consistent regimen during the initial treatment phase (dose-escalation phase), which was performed as directed. Among them, 81 cases (observation group) continued to continue subcutaneous injection of 1 ml of vial No. 3 every 4-6 weeks during the dose maintenance phase, while 75 cases (control group) followed the old traditional regimen during the maintenance phase (i.e., change to a new vial to halve the amount of vial No. 3 by 0.5 ml, and then 0.75 ml after 1-2 weeks, and 1 ml in a further interval of 1-2 weeks). The clinical efficacy, safety and adherence to the treatment were compared between the two groups.Results:A total of 81 cases of 156 children were included in the observation group, of which 58 children with AR, 15 children with BA, and 8 children with AR combined with BA; 75 cases were included in the conventional control group, of which 52 children with AR, 16 children with BA, and 7 children with AR combined with BA. In terms of safety, the difference in the incidence of local and systemic adverse reactions between the two groups was not statistically significant ( χ2=1.541 for local adverse reactions in the control group, χ2=0.718 for the observation group; χ2=0.483 for systemic adverse reactions in the control group, χ2=0.179 for the observation group, P value >0.05 for all of these), and there were no grade Ⅱ or higher systemic adverse reactions in any of them. In the control group, there were 15 cases of dropout at 2 years of follow-up, with a dropout rate of 20.0%; in the observation group, there were 7 cases of dropout at 2 years of follow-up, with a dropout rate of 8.6%, and there was a statistically significant difference in the dropout rates of the patients in the two groups ( χ2=4.147, P<0.05). Comparison of serological indexes and efficacy (compared with baseline at 3 different time points after treatment, i.e., 4-6 months, 1 year and 2 years after treatment), CSMS scores of the observation group and the conventional control group at 4-6 months, 1 year and 2 years after treatment were significantly decreased compared with the baseline status ( t-values of the conventional group were 13.783, 20.086 and 20.384, respectively, all P-values <0.001, and t-values of the observation group were 15.480, 27.087, 28.938, all P-values <0.001), and VAS scores also decreased significantly from baseline status in both groups at 4-6 months, 1 year, and 2 years of treatment ( t-values of 14.008, 17.963, and 27.512 in the conventional control group, respectively, with all P-values <0.001, and t-values of 9.436, 13.184, and 22.377 in the observation group, respectively; all P-values <0.001). Intergroup comparisons showed no statistically significant differences in CSMS at baseline status, 4-6 months, 1 year and 2 years ( t-values 0.621, 0.473, 1.825, and 0.342, respectively, and P-values 0.536, 0.637, 0.070, and 0.733, respectively), and VAS was no statistically significant difference in comparison between groups at different time points ( t-values of 1.663, 0.095, 0.305, 0.951, P-values of 0.099, 0.925, 0.761, 0.343, respectively); suggesting that the treatment regimens of the observation group and the conventional control group were clinically effective, and that the two regimens were comparable in terms of efficacy. The peripheral blood eosinophil counts of the observation group and the conventional control group decreased significantly from the baseline status at 4-6 months, 1 year and 2 years of treatment ( t-values of the conventional group were 3.453, 5.469, 6.273, P-values <0.05, and the t-values of the observation group were 2.900, 4.575, 5.988, P-values <0.05, respectively). 4-6 months, 1 year and 2 years compared with the baseline status tIgE showed a trend of increasing and then decreasing ( t-value in the conventional group was -5.328, -4.254, -0.690, P-value was 0.000, 0.000, 0.492, respectively, and t-value in the observation group was -6.087, -5.087, -0.324, P-value was 0.000, 0.000, 0.745, respectively). However, the results of intergroup comparisons showed no statistically significant differences in serological indices and efficacy between the two groups in terms of peripheral blood eosinophil counts at baseline status, 4-6 months, 1 year and 2 years ( t-values of 0.723, 1.553, 0.766, and 0.234, respectively; P-values of 0.471, 0.122, 0.445, and 0.815, respectively), tIgE ( t-values of 0.170, -0.166, -0.449, 0.839, P-values 0.865, 0.868, 0.654, 0.403, respectively), tIgG4 ( t-values 1.507, 1.467, -0.337, 0.804, P-values 0.134, 0.145, 0.737, 0.422, respectively). Conclusion:Both immunotherapy regimens for airway allergic diseases with double mite allergen subcutaneous immunotherapy have significant clinical efficacy, low incidence of adverse reactions, and the observation group has better patient compliance than the control group.

Objective:To investigate the risk factors of postoperative recurrence in patients with primary brain glioma and to construct a prediction model.Methods:A total of 98 patients with primary brain glioma treated by radical surgery in Nanchong Central Hospital from January 2018 to January 2021 were retrospectively included, and were divided into recurrent group (40 cases) and non-recurrent group (58 cases) according to whether there was recurrence or not during the follow-up period. The independent influencing factors for postoperative recurrence in patients with primary brain glioma were evaluated by multivariate logistic regression. Logistic prediction model of postoperative recurrence risk of patients with primary brain glioma was established, and the predictive efficacy of each index was calculated by receiver operator characteristic (ROC) curve.Results:There were statistically significant differences between recurrent group and non-recurrent group in glioma World Health Organization (WHO) grade ( χ2=12.48, P<0.001), isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH) 1/2 mutation ( χ2=13.24, P<0.001), mean platelet volume (MPV) ( t=5.34, P<0.001), and MPV/platelet count (PLT) ( t=9.73, P<0.001). Multivariate analysis showed that WHO grade Ⅲ-Ⅳ ( OR=8.54, 95% CI: 1.62-44.99, P=0.011), IDH1/2 wild type ( OR=9.08, 95% CI: 1.68-49.19, P=0.010), low MPV ( OR=0.46, 95% CI: 0.21-0.99, P=0.048) and low MPV/PLT ( OR=0.02, 95% CI: 0.01-0.03, P<0.001) were independent risk factors for postoperative recurrence in patients with primary brain glioma. The logistic prediction model based on the above indicators was logit ( P) =11.78+2.15×WHO grade+2.21×IDH1/2 mutation situation-0.78×MPV-200.70×MPV/PLT ( R2=0.785). The ROC curve analysis results showed that WHO grade, IDH1/2 mutation, MPV, MPV/PLT, and logistic prediction model P-value could all be used to predict the risk of postoperative recurrence in patients with primary brain glioma; The areas under the curve were 0.681, 0.684, 0.783, 0.920 and 0.964, respectively. In the area under ROC curve comparison of each indicator, the predictive performance of the logistic regression model P-value was significantly higher than that of other indicators (all P<0.05) . Conclusion:Postoperative recurrence in patients with primary brain glioma may be related to glioma WHO grade, IDH1/2 mutation and platelet related laboratory indexes. The model constructed based on the above indicators can be used to predict the recurrence risk in patients with primary brain glioma after surgery.
