Acute necrotizing encephalopathy（ANE）is a rare post-infectious neurological disease primarily affecting children under 5 years old，with a high mortality and disability rate.Early administration of high-dose glucocorticoids is widely recognized as crucial for optimal efficacy of treatment.However，standardized guidance is lacking，and the optimal dosage as well as timing for administration require validation in larger patient populations.Additionally，combination therapies involving intravenous immunoglobulin，plasmapheresis，tocilizumab，and antiviral treatments may enhance efficacy and reduce mortality rates and neurological sequelae.This review summarized the current application status of high-dose glucocorticoid therapy for ANE in recent years and analyzed the differences in efficacy among different types and doses of glucocorticoids,as well as different timing of administration,with the aim of providing valuable references for optimizing treatment regimens in the future.

Objective:To explore the application effect of a multidisciplinary full-process chain nursing program based on the online-to-offline (OTO) model for patients with Parkinson′s disease and providing theoretical basis for medical staff to guide patients' rehabilitation.Methods:A randomized controlled trial was conducted, and 80 patients with Parkinson′s disease who visited the Neurology Department of Qilu Hospital, Shandong University (Qingdao) from January to December 2023 were selected using convenience sampling. Patients were divided into an intervention group and a control group using random number table method, with 40 patients in each group. The control group received routine nursing interventions, while the intervention group received a multidisciplinary full-process chain nursing program based on the OTO model in addition to routine care. The quality of life, rehabilitation training outcomes, psychological status, and nursing satisfaction of the two groups were compared.Results:In the intervention group, there were 23 males and 17 females, with an age of (65.46 ± 3.04) years; in the control group, there were 24 males and 16 females, with an age of (65.02 ± 3.42) years. After intervention, the scores for quality of life, rehabilitation training outcomes, Hamilton Anxiety Rating Scale, and Hamilton Depression Rating Scale in the intervention group were (163.57 ± 18.56), (44.18 ± 4.57), (6.27 ± 1.05) and (6.18 ± 1.05) respectively, while those in the control group were (139.42 ± 14.26), (37.54 ± 4.80), (11.53 ± 2.24) and (10.48 ± 2.22) respectively. There were statistically significant differences between the two groups ( t values were from 6.34 to 13.45, all P<0.05). Patient satisfaction was 97.50% (39/40) in the intervention group and 77.50% (31/40) in the control group, with a statistically significant difference ( χ2=7.31, P<0.05). Conclusions:Implementing a multidisciplinary full-process chain nursing program based on the OTO model for patients with Parkinson′s disease yields significant rehabilitation effects, improves negative emotions and quality of life, and is worthy of promotion in clinical practice.

AIM:This study aimed to explore the mechanism by which Bufei-Yishen formula(BYF)mitigates mitochondrial damage in rats with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease(COPD)by regulating the AMPK/PGC-1α signal-ing pathway.METHODS:Forty rats were randomly divided into four groups,each containing ten rats each:control group,COPD group,BYF group,and N-acetylcysteine(NAC)group.The COPD model was established through chronic cigarette smoke exposure combined with periodic bacterial inoculations over an eight-week induction phase.During the subsequent eight-week treatment period(i.e.,weeks 9～16),rats in the control and COPD groups received an isovolumet-ric saline solution via oral gavage,at a standardized daily dose of 2 mL per animal.Moreover,rats in the BYF and NAC groups were given Bufei Yishen formula(11.61 g·kg-1·d-1)or N-acetylcysteine(54 mg·kg-1·d-1)by gavage,once per day.At week 16,samples were collected and the general condition of the rats was observed.Body weight was recorded weekly.We also obtained data characterizing rat lung function,lung pathology,ATP content,and mitochondrial ultra-structure,as well as the levels of interleukin-6(IL-6),tumor necrosis factor-alpha(TNF-α),interleukin-1β(IL-1β),se-rum transforming growth factor-beta 1(TGF-β1)and the enzymatic activities of mitochondrial electron transport chain complexes I(NADH dehydrogenase)and III(cytochrome c reductase).Finally,we quantified the mRNA and protein lev-els of AMPK and PGC-1α in lung tissue.RESULTS:Compared to the control group,the COPD group exhibited yellow-ish hair color,reduced gloss,slower weight gain,and a disordered respiratory rhythm.We also observed significant de-creases(P<0.01)in pulmonary function tidal volume(TV),minute ventilation(MV),peak expiratory flow(PEF),expi-ratory flow at 50%of tidal volume(EF50),forced vital capacity(FVC),forced expiratory volume in 0.1 s(FEV0.1),and FEV0.1/FVC.Histopathological analysis showed alveolar cavity enlargement,bullous changes in lung morphology,smooth muscle hypertrophy in the tracheal wall,ciliary destroyed,mucosal shrinking and thickening,and a large number of in-flammatory cells gathered around the tube.Moreover,the mean linear intercept(MLI)and bronchial wall thickness(BWt)had both significantly increased(P<0.01).Electron microscopic analysis of the lungs revealed a reduction in the number of mitochondria in alveolar epithelial cells,a swollen and deformed lung morphology overall.We observed that the mitochondrial cristae were broken,dissolved or vacuolated,accompanied by a significant reduction in the number of lamel-lar bodies and lung volume,along with a disordered internal lipid layer structure.Furthermore,some lung samples were vacuolated or had content leakage.Further quantitative analyses showed statistically significant increases(P<0.01)in the levels of serum pro-inflammatory mediators,including IL-6,TNF-α,IL-1β,and TGF-β1.At the same time we observed substantial reductions in the enzymatic activities of mitochondrial electron transport chain complexes I and III(P<0.01).Moreover,we found that metabolic impairment correlated with significantly attenuated ATP production(P<0.01)in exper-imental subjects.Moreover,the expression levels of AMPK and PGC-1α mRNA and proteins in lung tissue were signifi-cantly decreased(P<0.01).Moreover,compared to the COPD group,the BYF group showed significant improvements in several of the above indicators,albeit to different degrees(P<0.01 or P<0.05).Moreover,BYF was more effective than NAC in improving minute ventilation and up-regulating PGC-1α expression(P<0.05).CONCLUSION:Bufei-Yishen formula may ameliorate mitochondrial damage in rats with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease by regulating the AMPK/PGC-1α signaling pathway.

Objective:To analyze the correlation between near work, screen time, outdoor time and myopia in children based on objective monitoring technology and to explore the influencing factors related to myopia in children.Methods:A cross-sectional study was conducted.From October 2022 to March 2023, the purposive sampling method was used to select 596 children in Grade 2 and Grade 3 from two primary schools in Shandong Province as study subjects.Eye-Monitor technology of eye-use behavior based on artificial intelligence was used to quantify parameters of near work, screen time and outdoor time.The eye-use behavior parameters were compared within each subject and between non-myopic and myopic children on weekdays and weekends.A multivariate binary logistic regression model was constructed to analyze the influencing factors related to myopia.The study protocol was approved by the Medical Ethics Committee of the Affiliated Eye Hospital of Shandong University of Traditional Chinese Medicine (No.HEC-HY-2022023KY).Written informed consent was obtained from the legal guardian of each subject.Results:For each subject, the proportion of near work time on weekdays was greater than on weekends, the proportion of time spent looking at cell phones, computer screens, and outdoor activities was smaller, the duration of single continuous near eye use was longer, the tilt angle of the head in sitting position was greater, and the light intensity was stronger, showing statistically significant differences ( t=19.427, -9.964, -5.916, -10.470, 2.211, 2.898, 15.061; all P<0.05).During weekdays, compared with the non-myopia group, the myopia group had longer total near work duration, longer single continuous near eye use duration, shorter outdoor activity duration, closer eye use distance, larger proportion of near work time, and smaller proportion of outdoor activity time, showing statistically significant differences (all P<0.05).During weekends, compared with the non-myopia group, the myopia group had longer time spent looking at cell phones and computer screens, shorter outdoor activity time, greater proportion of time spent looking at cell phones and computer screens, and smaller proportion of outdoor activity time, with statistically significant differences (all P<0.05).During weekdays, after adjusting for confounding factors, longer single continuous near eye use duration ( OR=1.138, 95% CI: 1.086-1.192, P<0.001) was the risk factor for myopia, and longer working distance ( OR=0.906, 95% CI: 0.847-0.970, P=0.004) and longer outdoor activity time ( OR=0.127, 95% CI: 0.023-0.703, P=0.018) were protective factors for myopia.During weekends, after adjusting for confounding factors, longer time spent on looking at cell phone screens ( OR=2.437, 95% CI: 1.460-4.068, P<0.001) and longer time spent on looking at computer screens ( OR=2.260, 95% CI: 1.283-3.979, P=0.005) were risk factors for myopia, and longer outdoor activity time ( OR=0.624, 95% CI: 0.416-0.934, P=0.022) was the protective factor for myopia. Conclusions:The eyes with continuous near work, prolonged use of smartphone and computer screens, closer eye use distance, and less time spent outdoors have been confirmed to be significantly correlated with myopia based on objective monitoring data.When formulating intervention measures for myopia prevention and control in children, it is advocated to further pay attention to control the distance and duration of near work on weekdays and strengthen screen time management on weekends.

Objective:To compare the efficacy and safety of a domestic hair follicle extraction system versus traditional follicular unit excision (FUE) in extracting hair follicles for the treatment of androgenetic alopecia (AGA) .Methods:A multicenter, randomized, self-controlled clinical trial was conducted on AGA patients aged 18 - 59 years who were recruited from the Huashan Hospital, Fudan University, the Affiliated Hangzhou First People's Hospital, and the China-Japan Friendship Hospital between June 2023 and September 2024. Each patient's scalp was randomly divided into two sides (experimental side vs. control side) using an envelope method. The experimental side underwent robotic hair transplantation with a domestic hair follicle extraction system, and the control side underwent traditional FUE. Hair follicles were extracted from the safe donor area in the occipital region, and implanted into the ipsilateral hair loss area. The primary outcome was the hair transection rate which was calculated immediately after follicular extraction. The secondary outcomes included the hair follicle unit loss rate and the change in hair density at the recipient site on postoperative day 14. Safety was evaluated by assessing the incidence of folliculitis at the donor site on postoperative day 14 and the overall incidence of adverse events. Surgical outcomes were evaluated at 9 months after surgery. Comparisons of evaluation indicators among groups were performed by using a paired t test or Wilcoxon signed-rank test. Results:A total of 55 patients with AGA (51 males and 4 females, aged 32.71 ± 5.75 years) completed the hair follicle transplantation and postoperative follow-up. The hair transection rate ( M[ Q1, Q3]) was 6.65% (4.56%, 10.16%) in the experimental group and 5.28% (3.04%, 8.89%) in the control group (difference = 1.24%, 95% CI: -0.24%, 2.65%) . The hair follicle unit loss rate was 2.00% (1.00%, 3.50%) in the experimental group and 0.50% (0, 2.00%) in the control group, with a significant difference between the two groups ( P = 0.008) . On postoperative day 14, there was no significant difference in the hair density between the experimental group and control group (72.20 ± 25.95 per cm 2vs. 76.49 ± 30.84 per cm 2, P = 0.173) . At 9-month follow-up, both groups showed improvement in the investigator's overall score in the recipient areas. Seven adverse events occurred in 7 subjects (12.72%) in each group, and all were mild folliculitis. Conclusion:The domestic hair follicle extraction system demonstrated comparable efficacy and safety to the traditional FUE in hair transplantation.
