Animal model research on spleen and stomach diseases in traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） is of great significance for elucidating the nature of diseases and syndromes and for revealing the mechanisms of action of Chinese herbal medicinals. At present， studies on classical TCM syndrome models of spleen and stomach diseases mainly focus on spleen deficiency syndrome， liver constraint syndrome， and damp-heat syndrome. Model construction is mostly based on the etiological and pathophysiological characteristics of syndrome， and model evaluation primarily involves macroscopic manifestations and physicochemical indicators. This paper summarizes the current research status of animal models integrating disease and syndrome for seven common spleen and stomach diseases， including chronic gastritis and gastric precancerous lesions， gastroesophageal reflux disease， functional dyspepsia， inflammatory bowel disease， irritable bowel syndrome， functional constipation， and functional diarrhea. The modeling methods and characteristics of disease-syndrome combined animal models for each disease are analyzed. It is proposed that future research on disease-syndrome integration in spleen and stomach diseases should move toward syste-matic， precise， and integrative development， and that interdisciplinary and cross-disciplinary research approaches should be adopted to enhance the predictive value and application efficiency of disease-syndrome combined animal models.

ObjectiveTo explore the 28-day mortality risk of Klebsiella pneumoniae (KP) bloodstream infections (BSI) and its related influencing factors, thereby providing a scientific basis for the effective control of KP-BSI and improvement of patient prognosis. MethodsFrom January 2018 to December 2024, a retrospective review was conducted on hospitalized patients aged >18 years old treated for KP-BSI at a tertiary hospital in Hangzhou. Logistic and Cox regression analyses were performed to identify the epidemiological characteristics and the risk factors for the 28-day mortality associated with KP-BSI. ResultsA total of 123 patients with KP-BSI were included in this study, comprising 64 cases infected with carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae (CRKP) and 59 cases infected with carbapenem-susceptible Klebsiella pneumoniae (CSKP). Compared with CSKP-BSI, patients with CRKP-BSI more frequently presented with chronic pulmonary disease (χ²=4.29, P=0.038), concomitant infections at other sites (χ²=10.90, P=0.001), and a higher frequency of invasive procedures prior to infection (central venous catheterization, mechanical ventilation, and indwelling urinary catheter), as well as glucocorticoid use, hemodialysis, and blood transfusion (all P<0.05). The 28-day mortality was significantly higher in BSI cases caused by CRKP compared to that caused by CSKP (37.50% vs 5.08%, P<0.001). Cox regression analyses revealed that carbapenem resistance (HR=6.67, 95%CI: 1.48‒30.08, P=0.014) and blood transfusion (HR=3.58, 95%CI: 1.15‒11.19, P=0.028) were risk factors for the 28-day mortality in KP-BSI, while removal of central venous catheters after infection (HR=0.24, 95%CI: 0.08‒0.67, P=0.006) was associated with a reduced risk for the 28-day mortality. ConclusionCarbapenem resistance is associated with mortality outcomes in patients with KP-BSI. Strengthening infection control measures targeting the identified risk factors for CRKP-BSI may improve patient prognosis.

This study analyzed the burden and trends in enteric infections in China from 1990 to 2021 from a One Health perspec-tive.Data on mortality associated with enteric infections were extracted from the 2021 Global Burden of Disease(GBD)database.The analysis focused on assessing the mortality rates of enteric infectious diseases attributed to various etiologies and risk factors,along with the age and sex distribution,from 1990 to 2021.Average annual percentage change(AAPC)was used to assess the total changes in disease burden.The age-standardized mortality rate of intestinal infections in China decreased from 9.642/100 000 in 1990 to 0.439/100 000 in 2021,with an AAPC of-57.103%(95%CI:-57.118%to-57.088%).In 2021,Rotavirus,Norovirus,and Crypto-sporidium were the top three etiologies contributing to disease burden,with mortality rates of 1.020/100 000,0.040/100 000 and 0.079/100 000,respectively.A significant variation in etiology distribution was observed across age groups:Rotavirus,Shigella,and Crypto-sporidium dominated among children under 5 years of age,whereas Cryptosporidium,Norovirus,and Clostridioides difficile were more prevalent in older populations.Risk factor analysis indicated that unsafe water sources and poor sanitation accounted for 73.394%of all enteric disease-related deaths.In conclusion,the burden of enteric infections in China markedly declined from 1990 to 2021,and sig-nificant variations in the etiological spectrum and disease burden were observed across age groups.The persistent effects of unsafe wa-ter sources and poor sanitation underscore the need for targeted interventions to further decrease the burden of these diseases.Our find-ings highlight the success of public health interventions in decreasing the burden of enteric infections in China,while emphasizing the need for targeted measures to address disparities in high-risk populations and improve environmental sanitation.

Objective:To summarize the clinical data of single-center juvenile dermatomyositis（JDM）complicated with interstitial lung disease（ILD），and provide experience for pediatricians.Methods:Data of 61 children with JDM who were admitted to Children's Hospital affiliated to Xi'an Jiaotong University from January 2016 to May 2023 were collected. General data，clinical symptoms，chest high-resolution CT，laboratory examination and myositis antibody spectrum of the children were recorded.Results:Among the 61 children with JDM，there were 30 cases（13 males and 17 females）without ILD. The age of onset was 5.96（3.50，8.92）years and the course of disease was（11.79±20.00）months. There were 31 cases with ILD（14 males and 17 females），the age of onset was 7.42（4.50，10.08）years，and the duration of ILD was（5.47±8.09）months. There was statistical difference in the course of disease between the two groups（ P<0.05），but no statistical difference in gender and age between the two groups（ P>0.05）. Among 61 children with JDM，there were statistical differences in fever between the two groups（ P<0.05），but no statistical differences in heliotrope discoloration，gottron’s papules，calcinosis and myasthenia between the two groups（ P>0.05）. AST and FER showed statistical difference between the two groups（ P<0.05），while CK，LDH，CK-MB，ESR，C3 and C4 showed no statistical difference（ P>0.05）. All 61 cases of children were tested for myositis antibody spectrum，and there was statistical difference in anti-MDA5 antibody between the two groups（ P<0.05），but no statistical difference in the rest（ P>0.05）. There were statistical differences between the two groups in the treatment of methotrexate，hydroxychloroquine and cyclophosphamide（ P<0.05）. A total of 11 cases（36.67%）in the without ILD group were treated with biologics（8 adalimumab，2 infliximab and 1 tofacitinib），and 23 cases（74.19%）in the ILD group were treated with biologics（11 adalimumab，9 tofaciib，2 infliximab and 1 tocilizumab）. All 61 cases with JDM were followed up. Among the 30 children without ILD，1 case was lost to follow-up 2 months after treatment，and the rest were treated effectively without death. Among the 31 children with ILD，3 cases died of severe pulmonary infection with multidrug-resistant bacteria during treatment，of which 1 case was positive for anti-MDA5 antibody and 2 cases were negative for myositis specific antibody. Conclusion:JDM is more likely to be complicated with ILD，fever is more likely to occur in ILD group，and children with positive anti-MDA5 antibody are more likely to occur ILD. Biologic agents such as adalimumab and tofacitinib are effective in combination therapy. In the course of treatment，multi-drug resistant bacteria infection should be guarded against to reduce mortality.

Objective:To investigate the applicability and surgical effect of direct horizontal suture in the repair of defects after the excision of eyelid nevus.Methods:The clinical data of patients with eyelid nevus who were admitted to Department of Facial and Neck Plastic Surgery, Plastic Surgery Hospital of Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences from March 2015 to March 2023 were retrospectively analyzed. After the eyelid nevus was removed, the defect was closed by horizontal suture parallel to the eyelid margin. In the preoperative simulation suture scheme, one or more horizontal lines were marked on the eyelid skin according to the scope of the nevus. The intersection points of the horizontal lines and the edges of the nevus were marked for simulated suturing. If the marked points aligned horizontally, direct suturing was applied. After 3 months of postoperative follow-up, the therapeutic effect was evaluated based on eyelid function (classified as excellent, good and poor), cosmetic effects (classified as excellent, good and poor) and patient satisfaction (classified as very satisfactory, satisfactory and dissatisfactory). At the same time, the effect of different wound length (<1 cm, 1-2 cm, >2 cm) on the therapeutic effect was also analyzed. SPSS 27.0 software was used for statistical analysis of the data. The counting data were represented by examples and percentages, and Kruskal-Wallis H test was used for comparison between groups. P<0.05 indicated that the difference was statistically significant. Results:A total of 71 patients were enrolled, including 30 males and 41 females. Aged 4 to 35 years old, with an average age of 15 years old. The lesions involved the upper eyelid in 47 cases, the lower eyelid in 14 cases, and co-involved in 10 cases. Lesion areas ranged from 0.5 cm×0.5 cm to 2.3 cm×2.0 cm. None of the lesions involved the palpebral margin and conjunctiva, and the depth did not reach the orbicularis oculi muscle. Immediately after the operation, all the patients had different degrees of eyelid deformation, and some severe patients had difficulty opening their eyes. The above symptoms were relieved within 7 days to 3 months after the operation, and eventually the eyelid movement returned to normal, leaving only mild scarring. In cases where the eyelid nevus was close to or involved the eyebrow area, eyebrow shape changed after surgery, and it gradually returned to normal after 1 month. Some patients with part of the eyebrow defect were able to improve their appearance through eyebrow tattoos, eyebrow transplatation and other methods. The eyelid function of 71 patients was excellent. The evaluation of cosmetic effect, 41 cases (58%) were excellent, and 30 cases (42%) were good. The evaluation of patient satisfaction, 56 cases (79%) were very satisfied, and 15 cases (21%) were satisfied. Statistical analysis showed that with the increase of the horizontal length of the wound, the cosmetic effect and patient satisfaction would be affected to a certain extent, but the differences were not statistically significant ( P>0.05). Conclusion:For eyelid nevus excision defects that can be closed horizontally, direct suturing method should be considered priority. This method is simple to perform, offers stable postoperative effects, and leads to high patient satisfaction.
