Objective: To evaluate the efficacy and safety of ruxolitinib combined with low-dose hormone for patients with acute graft-versus-host disease (aGVHD) after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT). Methods: Thirty patients with aGVHD after allo-HSCT admitted to the Department of Hematology of the General Hospital of Western Theater Command from November 2021 to November 2024 were retrospectively analyzed. All patients were treated with low-dose hormone (methylprednisolone 0.3-1 mg kg
-d
) combined with ruxolitinib 5-10 mg d
. The efficacy and adverse reactions were observed during the follow-up period to analyze the survival outcomes of the patients. Results: A total of 30 patients with aGVHD after allo-HSCT were included in this study, consisting of 15 (50%) males and 15 (50%) females with a median age of 34 year-old (ranging from 14 to 62). Classification by disease type: there were 18 cases of acute myeloid leukemia, 4 cases of acute lymphoblastic leukemia, 4 cases of aplastic anemia, and 4 cases of myelodysplastic syndrome. Classification by aGVHD severity: there were 27 cases (90%) of Ⅱ-Ⅳ degree aGVHD and 11 cases (36.7%) of Ⅲ-Ⅳ degree aGVHD. Ruxolitinib in combination with low-dose glucocorticoid treatment yield responses in 28 (93.3%) patients, of which 27 (90%) achieved complete remission (CR), while 1 (3.3%) showed partial remission (PR). One patient (3.3%) had no response (NR), and 1 patient (3.3%) exhibited progressed disease (PD). Overall survival (OS) at 1 year of transplantation was 73.9% (95%CI 49.5% to 87.7%), progression-free survival (PFS) was 93.3% (95%CI 75.9% to 98.3%), non-relapse mortality (NRM) was 20.6% (95%CI 7.9% to 47.4%), and median survival time was 27.6 months. Conclusion: Ruxolitinib combined with low-dose hormones is safe and effective in the treatment of aGVHD after allo-HSCT.

Lung cancer is one of the most lethal cancers, and the overall survival rate of lung cancer patients is very low. With the increasing research on lung cancer, the critical role of intestinal flora in lung cancer treatment has been gradually discovered. Among the various therapeutic approaches targeting the intestinal flora, fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) is considered as a potential strategy to treat lung cancer by interfering with the homeostasis of the intestinal flora. FMT can improve the efficacy of lung cancer treatment and attenuate the side effects associated with immunotherapy, chemotherapy, and radiotherapy by remodeling the microbial composition, modulating the metabolites, and activating immune responses. The aim of this paper is to discuss the current status and potential mechanisms of FMT in lung cancer treatment, and to provide a new strategy for regulating the intestinal flora to enhance the prevention and treatment of lung cancer.
3.Policy analysis of family-school-society collaboration mechanisms for promoting students physical and mental health
Chinese Journal of School Health 2026;47(9):1240-1245
Objective:
To analyze the text structure, temporal evolution, and mechanism related shortcomings of policies related to family-school-society collaboration in promoting students physical and mental health in China, thereby providing a reference for improving collaborative mechanisms in the context of health promoting school development.
Methods:
The PKULAW Laws and Regulations Database was used as the data source. A total of 115 relevant policy documents issued by relevant departments from the founding of the People s Republic of China to May 7, 2026, were included. Drawing on the adolescent health policy analysis framework and adapting it to the Chinese contexts of family-school-society collaborative education, health promoting school development, and interdepartmental collaborative governance, policy text analysis was conducted. Multi label coding was applied to 629 semantic units, and fractional counting was used to calculate the weights of 6 main dimensions and 31 subdimensions and to describe the dimensional composition of the policies and its changes over time.
Results:
Policies related to family-school-society collaboration in promoting students physical and mental health gradually evolved from early principle based collaboration centered on the ideological and moral development of minors into institutional arrangements supported by the Healthy China initiative, the legal institutionalization of family education, collaborative education mechanisms, and health promoting school development. Among the 6 main dimensions, policy features and costs accounted for 54.8% of the total weight, followed by implementation considerations (22.9%), monitoring and evaluation (9.5%), policy appropriateness (5.6%), inclusion and coverage (4.8%), and participatory approach (2.5%). At the subdimension level, proposed interventions, target population characteristics, intersectoral linkages, consideration of adolescents social ecology, and goal setting accounted for 18.7%, 16.0%, 12.0%, 9.6%, and 9.4% of the total weight, respectively, whereas adolescent participation and the incorporation of young people s voices accounted for only 0.3% and 0.1% , respectively. These findings indicated that the policy texts focused primarily on problem identification, target population specification, and implementation arrangements, while provisions concerning students active participation, identification of differentiated needs, and support from disaggregated data remained relatively limited.
Conclusions
China has established a policy framework for family-school-society collaboration in promoting students physical and mental health that emphasizes goal setting, responsibility division, and organizational implementation, while gradually extending to specific health promotion tasks. Nevertheless, policy provisions concerning students active participation, the identification of differentiated needs, stratified and category specific monitoring, and the use of evaluation feedback require further specification.
4.Related factors and collaborative action framework of multi-disease co-prevention in children and adolescents
Chinese Journal of School Health 2026;47(9):1364-1368
Abstract
The cooccurrence of multi disease among children and adolescents has become increasingly prominent, necessitating a shift from "single disease separate treatment" to "multi disease co prevention". Focusing on four common health problems in children and adolescents, namely, myopia, depression, overweight/obesity, and spinal abnormalities, the paper systematically reviews the association between four categories of factors, society, environment, family, and individual behavior, and the co occurrence of the aforementioned health problems. The findings indicate that particulate matter 2.5 exposure, light at night, physical inactivity, excessive screen time, and unhealthy diet constitute the primary cross dimensional risk network. Based on these findings, the paper proposes a collaborative action framework involving family, school, and society, emphasizing systematic strategies ranging from upstream environmental governance to downstream behavioral intervention, so as to provide evidence for the practice and policy making of multi disease co-prevention in children and adolescents.

Background:
and Purpose Symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage (sICH) following endovascular thrombectomy (EVT) is a severe complication associated with adverse functional outcomes and increased mortality rates. Currently, a reliable predictive model for sICH risk after EVT is lacking.
Methods:
This study used data from patients aged ≥20 years who underwent EVT for anterior circulation stroke from the nationwide Taiwan Registry of Endovascular Thrombectomy for Acute Ischemic Stroke (TREAT-AIS). A predictive model including factors associated with an increased risk of sICH after EVT was developed to differentiate between patients with and without sICH. This model was compared existing predictive models using nationwide registry data to evaluate its relative performance.
Results:
Of the 2,507 identified patients, 158 developed sICH after EVT. Factors such as diastolic blood pressure, Alberta Stroke Program Early CT Score, platelet count, glucose level, collateral score, and successful reperfusion were associated with the risk of sICH after EVT. The TREAT-AIS score demonstrated acceptable predictive accuracy (area under the curve [AUC]=0.694), with higher scores being associated with an increased risk of sICH (odds ratio=2.01 per score increase, 95% confidence interval=1.64–2.45, P<0.001). The discriminatory capacity of the score was similar in patients with symptom onset beyond 6 hours (AUC=0.705). Compared to existing models, the TREAT-AIS score consistently exhibited superior predictive accuracy, although this difference was marginal.
Conclusions
The TREAT-AIS score outperformed existing models, and demonstrated an acceptable discriminatory capacity for distinguishing patients according to sICH risk levels. However, the differences between models were only marginal. Further research incorporating periprocedural and postprocedural factors is required to improve the predictive accuracy.

ObjectiveTo observe the effect of modified Shibaotang on serum sex hormone levels in patients with male late-onset hypogonadism of kidney essence deficiency syndrome complicated with diabetes mellitus. MethodsA total of 60 patients with male late-onset hypogonadism of kidney essence deficiency syndrome complicated with diabetes mellitus,who met the inclusion criteria and were admitted to Yinchuan Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine from October 2022 to October 2023,were selected and randomly divided into an observation group and a control group,with 30 patients in each group. Both groups continued their original treatments,including blood glucose lowering and blood lipid regulation. The observation group was treated with modified Shibaotang,while the control group was treated with testosterone undecanoate capsules. The treatment lasted for 12 weeks. The changes in traditional Chinese medicine (TCM)syndrome scores,partial androgen deficiency in aging males (PADAM)symptom scores,glucose metabolism indexes [fasting plasma glucose (FPG),2-hour postprandial glucose (2 h PG),glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c)],and serum sex hormone indexes [sex hormone-binding globulin (SHBG),free testosterone (FT),total testosterone (TT),prolactin (PRL),luteinizing hormone (LH),follicle stimulating hormone (FSH),estrogen (E2)] were compared between the two groups before and after treatment. Safety was also evaluated. Results(1)Clinical efficacy comparison:After treatment,the clinical efficacy in both groups was similar,and there was no statistically significant difference between the two groups. (2)TCM syndrome score and PADAM symptom score comparison:After treatment,both groups showed a significant reduction in TCM syndrome scores and PADAM symptom scores (P<0.01),and the observation group showed a significantly greater reduction compared to the control group (P<0.05). (3)Glucose metabolism indexes comparison:After treatment,the levels of FPG,2 h PG,and HbA1c were significantly reduced in both groups (P<0.01),and there was no statistically significant difference between the two groups regarding FPG,2 h PG,and HbA1c levels after treatment. (4)Serum sex hormone indexes comparison:After treatment,the levels of FT,TT,PRL,LH,and FSH were significantly increased in both groups (P<0.01),while E2 levels were significantly decreased (P<0.01). There was no statistically significant difference between the two groups in the levels of FT,TT,PRL,LH,FSH,and E2 after treatment. There was also no significant difference in SHBG levels within or between the groups before and after treatment. During the clinical observation,neither group exhibited any obvious adverse reactions. ConclusionModified Shibaotang can significantly improve the clinical symptoms of male late-onset hypogonadism of kidney essence deficiency syndrome complicated with diabetes mellitus,reduce blood glucose,and increase sex hormone levels. The mechanism may involve the inhibition of aromatase transformation in adipocytes,promotion of GnRH production,and regulation of the hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal axis function.

Objective To investigate the association between the TyG index,its modified variants,and the risk of developing colorectal cancer(CRC).Methods This study included a total of 93,177 participants from the 2006 Kailuan Group health examination cohort.Participants were categorized into four quartiles(Q1-Q4)according to their TyG and modified TyG indices.Follow-up began at the baseline examination,with incident CRC as the primary outcome.Participants were censored at the time of CRC diagnosis,death,or the end of the study,whichever occurred first.The dose-response relationship between TyG and its modified indices and the risk of CRC was evalu-ated using restricted cubic splines(RCS)in conjunction with Cox proportional hazards regression models,yielding hazard ratios(HRs)and 95%confidence intervals(CIs).To compare the strength of associations between TyG and its modified versions(TyG-BMI,TyG-WC,TyG-WHR,TyG-WHtR,TyG-WWI)and CRC risk,HRs for CRC per one standard deviation increase in each index were calculated and compared.Results Both the TyG index and its modified variants demonstrated a significant dose-response relationship with the risk of CRC incidence.Specifically,for the TyG index,each 1-standard deviation(SD)increase was associated with a 1.17-fold(95%CI:1.09~1.27)higher risk of CRC.Compared with the first quartile(Q1),the third quartile(Q3)and fourth quartile(Q4)exhibited a 1.25-fold(95%CI:1.01~1.55)and 1.26-fold(95%CI:1.01~1.57)increased risk,respectively.For TyG-BMI,each 1-SD increase was linked to a 1.20-fold(95%CI:1.07~1.35)elevated CRC risk.Compared with Q1,Q3 and Q4 showed a 1.32-fold(95%CI:1.06~1.64)and 1.51-fold(95%CI:1.21~1.88)increase,respectively.Regarding TyG-WC,each 1-SD increment was associated with a 1.22-fold(95%CI:1.13~1.32)higher CRC risk,with Q3 and Q4 showing a 1.35-fold(95%CI:1.08~1.70)and 1.56-fold(95%CI:1.24~1.96)increased risk compared to Q1.For TyG-WHtR,each 1-SD increase was associated with a 1.24-fold(95%CI:1.08-1.42)higher CRC risk.Compared with Q1,Q2,Q3,and Q4 demonstrated a 1.31-fold(95%CI:1.03~1.66),1.55-fold(95%CI:1.23~1.95),and 1.60-fold(95%CI:1.27~2.02)increase,respectively.In the case of TyG-WHR,each 1-SD increase was associated with a 1.19-fold(95%CI:1.10~1.29)higher CRC risk,with Q4 showing a 1.42-fold(95%CI:1.14~1.77)increased risk compared to Q1.Finally,for TyG-WWI,each 1-SD increase was associated with a 1.22-fold(95%CI:1.13~1.32)elevated CRC risk,with both Q3 and Q4 showing a 1.58-fold increase(Q3:95%CI:1.26~1.98;Q4:95%CI:1.25~1.99).Stratified analyses by sex and age consistently revealed significant associations between the TyG index and its modified variants and CRC risk.Furthermore,these indices were independently associated with the incidence of both colon cancer and rectal cancer.Conclusions(1)Elevated levels of the TyG index and its modified variants are independent risk factors for CRC.(2)Both the TyG index and its modified forms demonstrate a significant dose-response association with the incidence of CRC.(3)Among the modified TyG indices,TyG-WWI,TyG-WHtR,TyG-BMI,TyG-WC,and TyG-WHR showed stronger correlations with CRC risk compared to the original TyG index.

Objective To investigate the application value of full-length lower extremity CT scans performed at different noise index(NI)in terms of image quality and radiation dose for robot-assisted total knee arthroplasty(RTKA).Methods Eighty patients who underwent RTKA were selected and randomly divided into four groups based on different NI:NI=8,NI=18,NI=28,and NI=38.Subjective scores were assigned to the full-length lower extremity CT images and the three-dimensional skeletal models generated by volume rendering(VR)post-processing.Objective evaluations were performed using three indicators:dose length product(DLP),volume CT dose index(CTDIvol),and hip-knee-ankle angle(HKA).The application value of full-length lower extremity CT scans in RTKA was analyzed.Results(1)As the NI value increased,the subjective scores of thin-slice images decreased.Images with NI between 8 and 18 met the imaging diagnostic standards,while those with NI higher than 18 were unacceptable.(2)As the NI value increased,all VR skeletal models met the acceptance criteria for RTKA.(3)As the NI value increased,DLP and CTDIvol gradually decreased,with statistically significant differences(P<0.05),However,in the comparison between the NI=28 and NI=38 groups,the difference was not statistically significant(P>0.05).Conclusion Performing full-length lower extremity CT scans with an NI of 28 not only meets the preoperative planning requirements for RTKA but also minimizes the radiation dose.

Objective:To analyze the relationship between social function and family support in young and middle-aged patients undergoing peritoneal dialysis (PD).Methods:In this cross-sectional study, the patients undergoing maintenance PD therapy for more than 3 months at the Department of Nephrology, the First Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University, from May to October 2023 were recruited retrospectively. The social dysfunction screening scale and family support self-rating scale were used to evaluate the social dysfunction and family support of PD patients, respectively. The social demographic and clinical data of the patients were collected. Logistic regression analysis model was used to identify associated factors of social dysfunction in PD patients.Results:A total of 359 PD patients were recruited with age of (42.6±9.5) years old. Among them, 197 patients (54.9%) were males, and 33 patients (9.2%) were complicated with diabetes. The dialysis age was 28.8 (13.5, 56.3) months. The score of social function was 2 (1, 4), and the score of family support was (10.5±2.2). There were 199 patients (55.4%) having social dysfunction. There were 224 patients (62.4%) employed after PD. Compared with the normal social function group, the social dysfunction group had significantly lower score in family support ( Z=-2.613, P=0.009), serum potassium ( t=-2.725, P=0.007), urea clearance index ( Z=-2.346, P=0.019) and proportions of married status ( χ2=6.847, P=0.009), pre-dialysis employment ( χ2=3.996, P=0.046) and post-dialysis employment ( χ2=8.331, P=0.004), and higher serum creatinine ( Z=2.175, P=0.030), and proportions of annual household income < 100 000 yuan ( χ2=6.270, P=0.012) and diabetes mellitus ( χ2=4.400, P=0.036). Multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that family support ( OR=0.828, 95% CI 0.733-0.935, P=0.002), diabetes mellitus ( OR=3.551, 95% CI 1.456-8.658, P=0.005) and serum potassium ( OR=0.559, 95% CI 0.374-0.835, P=0.005) were independent correlated factors of social dysfunction in young and middle-aged PD patients. Conclusions:The prevalence of social dysfunction is 55.4%, and the employment rate is 62.4% in young and middle-aged PD patients. Poor family support, diabetes mellitus and decreased serum potassium level are independently associated with social dysfunction in young and middle-aged PD patients.
