ObjectiveThis paper aims to evaluate the intervention effect of Gandou Fumu Decoction （GDFMD） in treating hepatolenticular degeneration with liver fibrosis of liver-kidney deficiency and phlegm-blood stasis syndrome， thereby providing evidence-based medical evidence for the treatment of Wilson's disease （WD）-related liver fibrosis with traditional Chinese medicine through clinical efficacy analysis. MethodsA total of 70 patients with WD-related liver fibrosis of liver-kidney deficiency and phlegm-blood stasis syndrome meeting the inclusion criteria were enrolled from Anhui Provincial Hospital of TCM from October 1， 2023， to October 1， 2024. Participants were divided into a control group and an observation group， with 35 cases in each group. The control group received conventional copper chelation therapy with sodium dimercaptopropanesulfonate （DMPS）. On this basis， the observation group was additionally administered GDFMD orally. Each treatment course lasted eight days， for a total of four treatment courses. Efficacy evaluations were performed before treatment and after the second and fourth treatment courses， respectively. The clinical efficacy and safety of GDFMD in the treatment of WD-related liver fibrosis were assessed by comparing the changes in liver stiffness measurement （LSM）， liver serological markers ［alanine aminotransferase （ALT）， aspartate aminotransferase （AST）， type Ⅳ collagen （C-Ⅳ）， laminin （LN）， N-terminal propeptide of type Ⅲ procollagen （PⅢNP）， and hyaluronic acid （HA）］， fibrosis index based on 4 factors （FIB-4）， AST to platelet ratio index （APRI）， unified Wilson's disease rating scale part Ⅱ （UWDRS-Ⅱ）， traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） syndrome score， 24-hour urinary copper， and safety indicators between the two groups before and after treatment. ResultsCompared with those before treatment， LSM levels decreased in both groups after two and four treatment courses （P<0.05）. Compared with those after treatment， there was no statistically significant difference in the improvement of LSM levels in the observation group after two treatment courses， and the improvement of LSM levels in the observation group was more obvious after four treatment courses （P<0.05）. Compared with those before treatment， the levels of HA， LN， PⅢNP， and C-Ⅳ decreased in both groups after two and four treatment courses （P<0.05）. Compared with those after treatment， there was no statistically significant difference in the improvement of the C-Ⅳ levels in the observation group after two treatment courses， and the levels of HA， LN， and PⅢNP were more obvious （P<0.05）. After four treatment courses in the observation group， the levels of HA， LN， PⅢNP， and C-Ⅳ were improved more significantly （P<0.05）. Compared with those before treatment， ALT and AST levels decreased in both groups after two and four treatment courses （P<0.05）. Compared with the control group after treatment， there was no statistically significant difference in the improvement of ALT and AST levels in the observation group after two treatment courses， and the improvement of ALT and AST levels in the observation group was more obvious after four treatment courses （P<0.05）. Compared with those before treatment， APRI score and FIB-4 index level decreased in both groups after two and four treatment courses （P<0.05）. Compared with those in control group after treatment， there was no statistically significant difference in the improvement of APRI score and FIB-4 index level in the observation group after two treatment courses， and the APRI score in the observation group was more obvious after four treatment courses （P<0.05）， with no statistically significant improvement in the FIB-4 index difference. Compared with those before treatment， the levels of TCM syndrome scores decreased in both groups after two and four treatment courses （P<0.05）. Compared with that of the control group after treatment， there was no statistically significant difference in the improvement of the level of TCM syndrome scores in the observation group after two treatment courses， and the improvement of the level of TCM syndrome scores in the observation group was more obvious after four treatment courses （P<0.05）. Compared with those before treatment， the UWDRS-Ⅱ scores in both groups after two treatment courses were not improved obviously， and the UWDRS-Ⅱ scores in both groups decreased after four treatment courses （P<0.05）. Compared with those of the control group after treatment， there was no statistically significant difference in the improvement of the UWDRS-Ⅱ scores in the observation group after two treatment courses， and the improvement of the UWDRS-Ⅱ scores in the observation group after four treatment courses was more obvious （P<0.05）. Compared with those before treatment， the 24-h urine copper levels were significantly higher in both groups after two and four treatment courses （P<0.05）. Compared with those in the control group after treatment， the 24-h urine copper levels in the observation group were significantly higher after two and four treatment courses （P<0.01）. After two treatment courses， the 24-h urine copper level in the observation group showed a gradual decreasing trend， although it was higher than that before treatment. After four treatment courses， the control group had an improvement rate of 91.43%， an effective rate of 34.29%， and an apparent rate of 2.86%. The observation group had an improvement rate of 94.29%， an effective rate of 71.43%， and an apparent rate of 8.57%. The efficacy of the observation group was better than that of the control group （P<0.05）. Conclusion① The efficacy of GDFMD combined with DMPS therapy in patients with WD-related liver fibrosis of liver-kidney deficiency and phlegm-blood stasis syndrome is significantly better than that of single DMPS therapy， and the advantages of the combined therapy are more obvious with the prolongation of the treatment cycle. ② GDFMD combined with the DMPS therapy program in the long-term application exhibits no obvious adverse reactions with good safety， which is worthy of clinical popularization and application.

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.

Objective:To explore the clinical characteristics and genetic etiology of a child with Neurofibromatosis-Noonan syndrome (NFNS).Methods:A child with NFNS who was treated at the Department of Endocrinology of Hangzhou Children′s Hospital in January 2024 was selected as the study subject. Clinical data of the child was collected by retrospective analysis method. Peripheral venous blood samples (2 mL each) were collected from the child and his parents. Genomic DNA was extracted, and trio whole exome sequencing (Trio-WES) of the family was carried out. Sanger sequencing was used to perform family verification on the candidate variants. The identified variants were classified for pathogenicity according to the Standards and Guidelines for the Interpretation of Sequence Variants established by the American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics (ACMG) (hereafter referred to as the " ACMG guidelines" ). This study has been approved by the Medical Ethics Committee of Hangzhou Children′s Hospital (Ethics No. 2021-06).Results:The child was a 7-year and 4-month-old male. He has short stature, numerous café-au-lait spots on the neck and trunk, and special facial features such as a full forehead, wide interpupillary distance, a low nasal bridge, and low-set ears.The results of Trio-WES showed that he has harbored a NF1 gene c. 3773G>T (p.W1258L) mutation, which was verified by Sanger sequencing to be de novo in origin. The NF1 gene child was associated with NFNS, which was an autosomal dominant inheritance. According to the ACMG guidelines, this variant was judged to be a likely pathogenic variant (PS2+ PM2+ PP3+ PP2). No pathogenic variant in genes associated with Noonan syndrome, such as those in PTPN11, SOS1, RAF1, RIT1, and KRAS, was found. Conclusion:The child with NFNS has clinical features such as short stature, special facial features, and café-au-lait spots. The c. 3773G>T (p.W1258L) variation in the NF1 gene may be the genetic etiology of the NFNS child in this study. The results of this study has enriched the variation spectrum of the NF1 gene.

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.

Objective:To combine the conventional audiometric curves and extended high frequency audiometric curves of patients with sensorineural deafness to form a full-frequency audiometric curve and to perform typing, so as to comprehensively understand the hearing status of patients with sensorineural deafness.Methods:This study was a cross-sectional study. The study subjects included 249 patients with sensorineural hearing loss who visited the Otolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery outpatient clinic of the PLA General Hospital between July 2019 and December 2020. Among them, 146 were male and 103 were female, aged 11 to 80 years. The cases included 123 with mild hearing loss, 70 with moderate hearing loss, 32 with moderately severe hearing loss, 17 with severe hearing loss, 6 with profound hearing loss, and 1 with total deafness. According to the national standard GB/T16403-1996, conventional pure-tone audiometry (125-8 000 Hz) was performed on the 249 patients with sensorineural hearing loss to obtain their conventional-frequency hearing curves, which were then classified. Extended high-frequency pure-tone threshold testing (9 000-20 000 Hz) was conducted using extended high-frequency headphones, specifically including eight frequencies: 9 000, 10 000, 11 200, 12 500, 14 000, 16 000, 18 000, and 20 000 Hz. Ultimately, the full-frequency hearing curves (125-20 000 Hz) of each patient were obtained. The K-means clustering analysis method was used to classify the hearing curves based on their characteristics, and the results of the K-means clustering analysis were partially adjusted through manual screening.Results:The conventional hearing curves of all 249 patients were consistent with sensorineural hearing loss. The detection rates for extended high frequencies (9 000, 10 000, 11 200, 12 500, 14 000, 16 000, 18 000, and 20 000 Hz) were 96.79% (241/249), 94.38% (235/249), 87.95% (219/249), 78.31% (195/249), 65.46% (163/249), 22.09% (55/249), 10.84% (27/249), and 0.80% (2/249), respectively. The conventional-frequency hearing curves of the patients could be classified into the following types: low-frequency descending type (50/249, 20.08%), conventional-frequency steep descending type (78/249, 31.33%), conventional-frequency gradual descending type (58/249, 23.29%), conventional-frequency flat type (25/249, 10.04%), conventional-frequency 4 000 Hz notch type (30/249, 12.05%), and other types (8/249, 3.21%). By incorporating extended high-frequency hearing data, the full-frequency hearing curves of 235 patients were further classified into the following types based on different characteristics: full-frequency hill type (32/235, 13.62%), full-frequency ascending type (28/235, 11.91%), full-frequency 8 000 Hz notch type (14/235, 5.96%), full-frequency steep descending type (82/235, 34.89%), full-frequency gradual descending type (34/235, 14.47%), full-frequency shoulder-raising type (7/235, 2.98%), full-frequency shoulder-dropping type (25/235, 10.64%), full-frequency flat type (8/235, 3.40%), and other full-frequency types (5/235, 2.13%).Conclusions:Compared to the classification based on conventional-frequency hearing curves, the full-frequency hearing curves of patients with sensorineural hearing loss provide a more comprehensive representation of their overall hearing status. Patients with the same conventional-frequency hearing curve classification may exhibit different full-frequency hearing curve types, suggesting potential differences in the location and extent of pathological damage within their auditory systems.
