ObjectiveTo explore the potential mechanism of Xiaoqinglong Decoction （小青龙汤， XD） in the treatment of allergic rhinitis. MethodsForty-five rats were randomly assigned to a control group， a model group， a loratadine group， low-， medium- and high-dose XD groups， and low-， medium- and high-dose Mahuang Decoction and Cang'erzi Powder （麻黄汤合苍耳子散， MDCP） groups. Except for the control group， rats were administered with ovalbumin （OVA） and aluminum hydroxide via intraperitoneal injection for 14 days to establish an allergic rhinitis model. After the 14th-day injection， nasal stimulation was continued with 20 μl of 10% OVA solution to maintain the model. Rats in the control group and the model group received 10 ml/（kg·d） of saline， whereas those in the loratadine group were administered with 0.9 mg/（kg·d） of loratadine. The low-， medium- and high-dose XD groups were administered XD at the dose of 2.7， 5.4， and 10.8 g/（kg·d）， respectively. The low-， medium- and high-dose MDCP groups were administered MDCP at the dose of 2.43， 4.86， and 9.72 g/（kg·d）， respectively. All treatments were administered by gavage once daily for 7 consecutive days. One hour after the final gavage， nasal symptom scores were recorded for all group of rats. The next day， serum levels of immunoglobulin E （IgE）， interleukin-4 （IL-4）， and interleukin-13 （IL-13） were measured. HE staining was used to observe the pathological morphology of the nasal mucosal tissue. Quantitative reverse transcription PCR （RT-qPCR） and Western Blot were performed to assess mRNA and protein expression of thymic stromal lymphopoietin （TSLP） and OX40 ligand （OX40L） in the nasal mucosa. ResultsCompared to the control group， total nasal symptom score in the model group significantly increased （P＜0.01）. HE staining revealed disrupted and adhered cilia， thickened basement membranes， and extensive inflammatory cell infiltration in the nasal mucosa. Serum levels of total IgE， IL-4， and IL-13， as well as TSLP and OX40L mRNA and protein expression in the nasal mucosa， were significantly elevated in the model group （P＜0.05 or P＜0.01）. Compared to the model group， the total nasal symptom scores in all drug intervention groups were significantly reduced； the serum total IgE levels in the loratadine group， the low- and medium-dose XD groups， and the low- and high-dose MDCP groups were significantly reduced； and the serum levels of IL-4 and IL-13 in the high-dose XD group and the high-dose MDCP group decreased （P＜0.05 or P＜0.01）. Nasal mucosal structure was improved. Except for the low-dose MDCP group， all other intervention groups showed a significant reduction in TSLP and OX40L mRNA expression in the nasal mucosa （P＜0.01）. All doses of XD and the medium- and high-dose MDCP groups significantly decreased the protein levels of TSLP and OX40L （P＜0.05）. The medium-dose XD group exhibited more improvement of nasal symptom scores and greater suppression of expression of TSLP and OX40L mRNA， and TSLP protein levels compared to the loratadine group （P＜0.05）. ConclusionXD may protect nasal mucosa of rats and alleviate allergic rhinitis by suppressing the TSLP/OX40L pathway， thereby attenuating Th2-mediated immune responses.

Ecoflex is a commercial designation for elastomers developed based on the principles of environmental sustainability and flexibility. Various manufacturers offer different types of Ecoflex products with distinct compositions and functions. Among these, the platinum-catalyzed silicone rubber Ecoflex series has demonstrated considerable applicability in various fields of oral medicine due to its excellent flexibility, biocompatibility, stability across a wide temperature range, and tunable mechanical properties. In tissue engineering, it can simulate the mechanical behavior of oral mucosa, and is used in cleft lip surgical training models and preoperative evaluation for temporal bone defect reconstruction. In the field of wearable devices, leveraging its encapsulation protection and flexible characteristics, highly sensitive sensors constructed from Ecoflex can monitor signals such as oral bite force and masticatory muscle activity, thereby aiding in the diagnosis of temporomandibular joint disorders and postoperative evaluation of cleft lip and palate. Moreover, when combined with bio-waste materials, it promotes the functionalization and sustainability of oral wearable devices.In drug delivery systems, its conformability and controlled-release capability address challenges in localized oral drug administration. Designs such as flexible microneedles and temperature-responsive composite systems provide precise solutions for treating periodontitis and oral ulcers. In minimally invasive surgical instruments, its softness enables the development of soft robots and magnetically controlled microfluidic valves, enhancing surgical safety and precision. In the field of oral rehabilitation, Ecoflex soft liner materials, inspired by the suction cup structure of octopus tentacles, improve denture retention. Their low modulus reduces mucosal irritation, ensuring both comfort and durability. Although Ecoflex shows great potential in biomedical applications, it still faces certain challenges, particularly regarding long-term stability after implantation, mechanical fatigue resistance, and microbial colonization, which require further investigation. In the future, with advancements in 3D printing technology, Ecoflex is expected to achieve more precise clinical translation across multiple fields and drive innovation in intelligent biomaterials.

BackgroundCurrently， the incidence of depression among teenagers is on the rise， and the related academic problems are becoming increasingly serious. Short video addiction has a negative impact on teenagers' emotional issues and academic achievements. However， few studies have explored the relationship between this addiction and the learning burnout of teenagers with depression， and even fewer have focused on the role paths of impulsivity and coping disposition in this process. ObjectiveTo explore the relationship between short video addiction and learning burnout in adolescent patients with depression， as well as the pathway of impulsivity and coping disposition， so as to provide references for the intervention of learning burnout in adolescent patients with depression. MethodsA total of 191 adolescent patients who were hospitalized at The Affiliated Brain Hospital of Guangzhou Medical University from December 2024 to April 2025 and met the diagnostic criteria for depression according to the International Classification of Diseases， tenth edition （ICD-10） were selected consecutively. The Short Video Addiction Measurement Scale （SVAMS）， the Brief Barratt Impulsiveness Scale （BBIS）， the Simplified Coping Style Questionnaire （SCSQ）， and the Adolescent Student Burnout Inventory （ASBI） were used for assessment. Pearson correlation analysis was employed to examine the correlations of the scores of each scale. Model 6 of the SPSS macro Process 4.2 was employed to analyze the chained mediation pathway of impulsivity and coping disposition between short video addiction and learning burnout. ResultsA total of 173 cases （90.58%） of adolescent patients with depression completed the valid questionnaire survey. Correlation analysis showed that SCSQ coping disposition score was negatively correlated with the SVAMS score， the BBIS score， and the ASBI score （r=-0.282， -0.341， -0.431， P<0.01）， the SVAMS score was positively correlated with the BBIS score and the ASBI score （r=0.339， 0.262， P<0.01）， and the BBIS score was positively correlated with the ASBI score （r=0.486， P<0.01）. The pathway analysis showed that the direct effect of short video addiction on learning burnout was not statistically significant， but the total effect and the indirect effect were statistically significant. The effect values were 0.275 （95% CI： 0.207–0.343） and 0.193 （95% CI： 0.143–0.246）， respectively， with the indirect effect accounting for 70.18%. Impulsivity and coping disposition both played independent mediating roles between short video addiction and learning burnout， with effect values of 0.122 （95% CI： 0.090–0.156） and 0.054 （95% CI： 0.032–0.079）， accounting for 44.36% and 19.64% of the total effect， respectively. The chained mediation effect of impulsivity and coping disposition was significant， with an effect value of 0.017 （95% CI： 0.011–0.026）， accounting for 6.18% of the total effect. ConclusionAlthough short video addiction does not directly affect learning burnout in adolescent patients with depression， it may indirectly influence learning burnout through independent and chain paths of impulsivity and coping disposition. ［Funded by Guangzhou Key Clinical Specialty （Clinical Medical Research Institute）］

OBJECTIVE To provide references for medical institutions’ outpatient pharmacies to increase the scanning rate， scanning efficiency and scanning accuracy of drug traceability codes.METHODS A total of 4 157 unscanned traceability code records from the first two‑week period of June 2025 were selected from the outpatient pharmacy of our hospital. Pareto chart was adopted to analyze the reasons for unscanned codes， and the Objective-Rules-Training-Check-Culture （ORTCC） model was utilized to carry out fine management. The traceability code scanning rate， pharmacists’ work efficiency （number of prescriptions dispensed per pharmacist per hour， number of drug boxes dispensed per pharmacist per hour）， patients’ medication-waiting time and dispensing errors were compared among four periods： before scanning implementation （June 2024）， before management intervention （June 2025）， the first phase after management （September 2025）， and the second phase after management （December 2025）， so as to evaluate the management effects.RESULTS The traceability code scanning rates in the first phase and second phase after management were remarkably higher than those before management （ P ＜0.05）， and the scanning rate in the second phase after management was obviously higher than that in the first phase after management （ P ＜0.05）. Compared with the period before scanning implementation， the number of prescriptions dispensed per pharmacist per hour， the number of drug boxes dispensed per pharmacist per hour， decreased significantly and patients’ medication-waiting time prolonged markedly before management （ P ＜0.05）. In the second phase after management， both the number of prescriptions dispensed per pharmacist per hour and the number of drug boxes dispensed per pharmacist per hour increased significantly， and patients’ medication-waiting time shortened greatly in contrast with the status before management （ P ＜0.05）. Besides， no statistically significant differences were found in the number of drug boxes dispensed per pharmacist per hour and patients’ medication-waiting time between the second phase after management and the period before scanning implementation （ P ＞0.05）.After the implementation of traceability-code scanning management， dispensing errors presented a gradually declining trend in each stage.CONCLUSIONS The fine management system for outpatient drug traceability codes constructed based on Pareto chart and ORTCC model can improve the traceability code scanning rate and pharmacists’ work efficiency of outpatient pharmacies， and reduce drug dispensing errors.

Objective: To analyze the epidemiological characteristics and spatial-temporal clustering of other infectious diarrhea (OID) in Shaoxing City, Zhejiang Province from 2016 to 2025, so as to provide evidence for formulating differentiated prevention and control strategies for OID. Methods: Data on OID cases in Shaoxing City from 2016 to 2025 were collected through the Infectious Disease Reporting Information System of China Disease Prevention and Control Information System. Descriptive analysis was used to analyze the temporal, regional and population distributions and etiological characteristics of OID. The average annual percent change (AAPC) was used to analyze the trend in reported incidence of OID from 2016 to 2025. Spatial autocorrelation analysis and spatial-temporal scan analysis were used to analyze the spatial-temporal clustering of OID. Results: A total of 155 355 OID cases were reported in Shaoxing City from 2016 to 2025, with an average annual reported incidence of 299.74/105. The overall trend in reported incidence was not statistically significant (AAPC=0.873%, P>0.05). January to March and June to September were the epidemic seasons, with seasonal indexes of 108.49%, 108.76%, 100.93%, 100.82%, 122.98%, 132.77% and 104.40%, respectively. The average annual reported incidence of OID in Zhuji City was relatively high, with 554.42/105. OID cases were mainly reported among males, children aged 0-<5 years and scattered children, with 82 399, 53 539 and 50 951 cases, accounting for 53.04%, 34.46% and 32.80%, respectively. A total of 21 503 cases with identified pathogens were reported. The reported peak of viral pathogen infection mainly occurred in winter, dominated by rotavirus infection, with 14 898 cases (69.28%). The reported peak of bacterial pathogen infection mainly occurred in summer, dominated by Salmonella infection, with 1 475 cases (6.86%). OID cases in Shaoxing City showed positive spatial correlation from 2016 to 2025 (all P<0.05). High-high clusters gradually shifted from Zhuji City toward Shangyu District and Yuecheng District. There was one Class Ⅰ cluster, centered on Datang Subdistrict in Zhuji City, involving 11 subdistricts (town ships) in Zhuji City, with a clustering period from June 2017 to May 2022. Conclusions The reported incidence of OID in Shaoxing City from 2016 to 2025 remained relatively high, with a stable overall trend. The incidence presents a bimodal epidemic feature of "bacterial infection in summer and viral infection in winter". Males and children were the high-risk populations, and Zhuji City, Shangyu District, and Yuecheng District were the high-risk areas.

Objective: To understand the prevalence of dental caries and its influencing factors among primary and middle school students in the Xinjiang Production and Construction Corps (hereinafter referred to as "the Corps"), so as to provide a reference for formulating targeted prevention strategies and promoting oral health of primary and middle school students. Methods: Primary and middle school students in the Corps were selected as survey subjects by a multi-stage stratified random cluster sampling method in September 2023. Basic information and dietary behaviors were collected through questionnaire surveys, and dental caries status was examined by oral health technicians. Multivariable logistic regression model was used to analyze the influencing factors of dental caries among primary and middle school students. Results: A total of 80 370 primary and middle school students were investigated, including 40 582 males (50.49%) and 39 788 females (49.51%). There were 37 608 primary school students (46.79%), 34 612 junior high school students (43.07%), and 8 150 senior high school students (10.14%). There were 26 669 students with dental caries, with a prevalence rate of 33.18%. Multivariable logistic regression analysis showed that the risk of dental caries was higher among female students (OR=1.170, 95%CI: 1.136-1.206), students in suburban counties (OR=1.212, 95%CI: 1.166-1.258), boarding students (OR=1.306, 95%CI: 1.257-1.357), and those with a frequency of fried food intake ≥1 time per day (OR=1.175, 95%CI: 1.084-1.273). Conversely, the risk of dental caries was lower among middle school students (OR=0.542, 95%CI: 0.524-0.560), high school students (OR=0.661, 95%CI: 0.620-0.705), and those with a frequency of vegetable intake ≥1 time per day (1 time per day, OR=0.900, 95%CI: 0.838-0.967), (≥2 time per day, OR=0.879, 95%CI: 0.819-0.944), and those who sometimes ate breakfast (OR=0.907, 95%CI: 0.874-0.942). Conclusions The prevalence of dental caries among primary and middle school students in the Corps is relatively high, and is influenced by various factors such as gender, school stage, area, boarding status, and dietary behaviors. It is suggested to strengthen oral health knowledge education among students, conduct regular oral health examinations, and improve the overall level of oral health.
