BackgroundFamily functioning is one of the factors influencing non-suicidal self-injury (NSSI) behaviors in adolescents with depressive disorders. Previous studies have treated family functioning as a unitary construct, which may obscure the differential impacts of specific dimensions on NSSI behaviors. ObjectiveTo explore the relationships between various dimensions of family functioning and NSSI behaviors in adolescents with depressive disorders, aiming to provide precise targets for family-based interventions for adolescents with depressive disorders who exhibit NSSI behaviors. MethodsIn this cross-sectional study, 217 adolescent patients who were treated at the outpatient or inpatient department of The First Psychiatric Hospital of Harbin from January to July 2025 and met the diagnostic criteria for depressive disorders as stipulated in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, fifth edition (DSM-5) were included as the research subjects. Assessments included a self-designed questionnaire, the Hamilton Depression Scale-17 item (HAMD-17), and the Family Assessment Device (FAD). Univariate Logistic regression analysis was employed to investigate the association between each dimension of family functioning and the NSSI behaviors, and multivariate Logistic regression was used to test the independent effect of each dimension of family functioning on the NSSI behaviors. ResultsA total of 204 cases (94.01%) of adolescent patients with depressive disorders completed the valid questionnaire survey. Among them, 134 cases (65.69%) exhibited NSSI behaviors (NSSI group), and 70 cases (34.31%) did not exhibit NSSI behaviors (non-NSSI group). Compared with the non-NSSI group, the NSSI group had a higher HAMD-17 score [(20.97±7.50) vs. (17.79±6.95), t=8.705, P=0.004], a higher FAD total score [(155.68±21.84) vs. (148.87±22.72), t=4.348, P=0.038], and a higher problem-solving dimension score [(2.54±0.49) vs. (2.34±0.51), t=7.399, P=0.007]. All the differences were statistically significant. The results of the Logistic regression analysis showed that the FAD total score (OR=1.014, 95% CI: 1.001–1.028, P=0.041) and the problem-solving dimension score (OR=2.241, 95% CI: 1.228–4.090, P=0.009) were both risk factors for NSSI behaviors. After adjusting for gender, age, residence, educational level, monthly family income, and whether being an only child, the correlation between the FAD total score and NSSI behaviors was not statistically significant (OR=1.010, 95% CI: 0.995–1.025, P=0.185), while the correlation between the FAD problem-solving dimension score and NSSI behaviors remained statistically significant (OR=2.000, 95% CI: 1.028–3.889, P=0.041). ConclusionImpaired problem-solving capacity within family functioning may constitute a risk factor for NSSI behaviors in adolescents with depressive disorders.

Background/Aims:
Natural killer (NK) cell function is generally considered dampened in chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection; however, the NK cell pool exhibits phenotypic and functional heterogeneity, and the antibody--mediated effect of NK cells remains less characterized. This study evaluated the dynamic changes in antibody-mediated NK cell responses and the involvement of distinct NK subsets across disease stages and during antiviral treatment.
Methods:
A T-cell receptor-like antibody specific for the HBV core 18–27 peptide (cTCRL-Ab) was used to determine the antibody-mediated effect of NK cells, and an array of NK cell surface markers were analyzed in cross-sectional and longitudinal cohorts of patients with chronic HBV infection. Single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) was performed to identify the heterogeneity of NK subsets.
Results:
The cTCRL-Ab enabled the detection of NK cell cytolytic activity and IFNγ production. Notably, cTCRL-Ab-mediated NK cell responses were compromised in chronically HBV-infected patients, particularly in those receiving pegylated interferon-α (Peg-IFNα), which was associated with the downregulation of CD16 expression. Correspondingly, Peg-IFNα inhibited cTCRL-Ab-mediated NK cell function by reducing CD16 expression in vitro. scRNA-seq revealed that CD16 downregulation occurred mainly within a dysfunctional CD16hi NK subset exhibiting exhaustion properties. In contrast, an activated CD16hiNK subpopulation (CX3CR1⁺KLRC2–CD16hi) with high cytotoxicity was enriched in patients who experienced favorable treatment responses. Furthermore, the intrahepatic CX3CR1+KLRC2–CD16hi subset tended to exhibit functional restoration in HBsAg-loss individuals.
Conclusions
Our data contribute to the understanding of antibody-mediated responses of NK cells in chronic HBV infection, and highlight a previously unappreciated functional CX3CR1+KLRC2–CD16hiNK subset as a potential therapeutic target.

Objective:To analyze the epidemiological characteristics and infection sources of cholera in China from 2005 to 2024.Methods:A total of 2 066 cholera cases were included in the study, which were obtained from the China Disease Control and Prevention Information System (CDPCIS) of China CDC. The information on cholera clusters was downloaded from the National Public Health Emergency Event Surveillance System (PHEESS) of China CDC. A total of 128 cholera clusters were included and analyzed in this study. The epidemiological characteristics and infection sources of cholera were analyzed. The Jointpoint model was applied to analyze the incidence trend, and annual percentage change (APC) was also quantified.Results:From 2005 to 2024, a total of 2 066 cholera cases were reported, with an average of 103 cases reported annually. Specifically, the incidence showed a marked downward trend from 2004 to 2015 ( APC=-26.78%, P=0.006). During 2015-2024, the disease remained at low endemic levels, with an average of 18 reported cases annually ( APC=-2.68%, P=0.807). Cholera peak season was from May to October. A total of 24 provinces reported cholera cases, which were mainly distributed in Zhejiang, Fujian, Beijing, Jiangsu, Anhui, Guangdong, and Hainan provinces, accounting for 78.03% of the total cases. Pathogen surveillance indicated an alternating prevalence of Vibrio cholerae serogroups O1 and O139 among laboratory-confirmed cases between 2005 and 2024. There was a disparity in the dominant serogroup of Vibrio cholerae by region. The results from 128 cholera clusters indicated that cholera outbreaks frequently occurred in rural banquets (64.84%), followed by regular restaurants (13.28%). Among these, 63 clusters (49.22%) with identified infection sources indicated that foodborne transmission (95.24%) was the primary mode of cholera transmission, which mainly through seafood and aquatic products, such as soft-shelled turtles, shrimp and shellfish. The characteristics of cholera clusters caused by Vibrio cholerae serogroups O1 and O139 showed statistically significant differences in scale, attack rate, place of residence, setting, and infection source ( P<0.05). Conclusion:Cholera incidence has remained consistently low since 2015 in China, mainly in sporadic cases. Rural gatherings (e.g., wedding banquets) are the main settings for cholera clusters. The main infection sources are predominantly caused by cross-contamination due to improper processing practices of aquatic products, such as soft-shelled turtles.

Objective:To formulate the Guidelines for the Construction of Community Health Service Centers in Pudong New Area, Shanghai. Methods:This was a qualitative study. This study was divided into 2 stages. The first stage of the study was conducted from June to August 2023 and involved the heads of the General Affairs Departments of the 47 community health service centers in Pudong New Area. These individuals completed online questionnaires to compile a database on the current status of matching supply and demand resources in community health service centers in Pudong New Area. The second stage of the study run from September 2023 to August 2024. Firstly, the functional modules of China′s community health service centers would be clarified through a literature review. The construction scale and design requirements of similar institutions at home and abroad would be benchmarked, as well as practical experience. The results of Phase 1 research would then be combined to form the " Community Health Service Center Infrastructure Configuration Requirements and Design Suggestions (Draft)". Then, relevant experts were brought together to discuss the draft and form the " Community Health Service Center Infrastructure Configuration Requirements and Design Recommendations (Revised Version)". The experts involved in the discussion specialized in the study of infrastructure resource allocation for medical institutions. Finally, the medical and healthcare system managers, community health service center users, and relevant commissions and bureaus of Pudong New Area were consulted to further revise and finalize the Guidelines for the Construction of Community Health Service Centers in Pudong New Area, Shanghai. Results:The total floor area of community health service centers in Pudong New Area was 57% (31/55), the number of beds per 1 000 people was 14% (8/55), and the total number of beds was 10% (6/60). These figures showed that urgent upgrades and construction in accordance with the new standards were required. The final " Guidelines for the Construction of Community Health Service Centers" of Shanghai Pudong New Area comprised 15 chapters, covering topics from the macro construction scale, site selection and general plan to architectural design, structural design, water supply and sewage treatment, ventilation and air conditioning, electrical systems, informatics, medical gas supply, indoor design, signage, marking and fire protection, etc. The guidelines have been revised to incorporate the functional design of the 5 basic rooms, with a particular focus on the creating humanistic spaces and promoting digitalization. Particular attention was paid to creating humanistic spaces and improving ageing with digital applications. Conclusions:The Guidelines for the Construction of Community Health Service Centers in Pudong New Area of Shanghai have been successfully formulated. These guidelines can be used to guide the subsequent high-quality and standardized development of community health service centers.

This consensus was developed by the Orthodontic Society of the Chinese Stomatological Association to provide a systematic, scientific, and practical guideline for informed consent in orthodontic care. Orthodontic treatment is typically lengthy, highly individualized, and involves multiple factors such as growth and development, occlusal function, and facial esthetics. Rapid technological advances and diverse risk profiles make the traditional reliance on orthodontist experience or institutional templates insufficient to ensure patients′ full understanding and autonomous decision-making. To address this, the expert panel conducted extensive reviews of domestic and international guidelines, analyzed representative dispute cases, and performed multicenter patient-clinician surveys. Using a multi-round Delphi method, the group established a standardized informed consent framework covering the initial consultation, treatment, and retention phases. The consensus emphasizes that informed consent is not only a fundamental legal and ethical requirement but also a key step in building trust, improving patient compliance, and enhancing treatment satisfaction. Orthodontists should clearly and comprehensively explain treatment plans, potential risks, uncertainties, and associated costs, while respecting the autonomy of patients or guardians, and maintain continuous communication and dynamic evaluation throughout the treatment process. The release of this consensus provides unified and authoritative guidance for clinical orthodontics, helping to standardize informed consent, enhance its transparency, safeguard patient rights, reduce medical risks, and promote high-quality, sustainable development of orthodontic practice.
