Shared Decision-Making （SDM） is a crucial concept in modern medicine， emphasizing the joint participation of doctors and patients in the medical decision-making process. However， the authoritative position of doctors and the passive role of patients in traditional medical models often overlook the personal wishes and needs of patients， leading to tense doctor-patient relationships and medical disputes. By listening to and understanding their stories， narrative medicine helps doctors gain a more comprehensive understanding of patients’ situations and balances medical advice with patient needs in the decision-making process. Through systematic literature analysis and theoretical exploration， this paper investigated the application effects and mechanisms of narrative medicine in different medical contexts， as well as analyzed its specific role in the process of SDM. The aim is to explore the value of narrative medicine in bridging differences in SDM， revealing its role in promoting doctor-patient communication， enhancing decision-making participation， and improving medical outcomes. Researches had found that narrative medicine enhanced doctors’ “narrative ability”， promoted emotional communication and trust between doctors and patients， reduced conflicts and misunderstandings in decision-making， and improved patients’ sense of participation and trust， thus playing an important role in SDM. Therefore， by enhancing doctor-patient communication and understanding， promoting SDM and treatment selection between doctors and patients， personalized care and treatment optimization， advocating for doctor-patient co-construction， improving consultation efficiency， restoring the patient’s subject position， and other methods， it can bridge doctor-patient differences， promote communication and enhance decision-making participation， and improve medical outcomes and patient satisfaction.

Objective To construct time-series by adopting autoregressive integrated moving average(ARIMA)model for analyzing the trend and genotype characteristics of single-center human papillomavirus(HPV)infection in Tianjin area.Methods A total of 7 236 female patients who underwent HPV testing in a hospital from January 2018 to December 2022 were selected.HPV infection status and genotype distribution in Tianjin area from 2018 to 2022 were compared.ARIMA model time-series was constructed,and model fitting was analyzed.The number of HPV infections in 2023 was predicted and compared with the actual occurrence,the predictive performance of the model was evaluated.Results HPV infection rate in Tianjin area from 2018 to 2022 was 14.41％,with the highest rate(15.47％)in the age group of 31-40 years.Among the positive specimens,the proportion of single type HPV infection was the highest,accounting for 73.54％(767/1 043),with high-risk HPV being the main type.The highest infection rates of low-risk and high-risk types were type HPV-6(2.59％)and type HPV-16(16.06％),re-spectively.ARIMA model was constructed,and the optimal model was ARIMA(0,1,2)(0,1,1)12,with akaike in-formation criterion(AIC)and bayesian information criterion(BIC)values of 3.877 and 4.005,respectively.There was no statistical significance in Ljung-Box Q=8.828 showed by white noise test(P＞0.05).The number of HPV infection in 2023 was predicted by the model.The overall trend of the actual value and the predicted value was basi-cally consistent,RMSE,MAPE and MAE of the model were 6.289,34.149 and 4.706,respectively,suggesting that the model had a good prediction effect.Conclusion Among the female population in Tianjin area,HPV infec-tion is mainly caused by single,high-risk type,with HPV-16 having the highest infection rate.There is seasonal variation in HPV infection in Tianjin.ARIMA model has good prediction effect on the prevalence trend of HPV in-fection,which is suitable for short-term prediction.

Objective: To understand campus bullying in colleges and middle schools in Tibet, and to analyze related influencing factors, so as to provide reliable basis and reference for formulating targeted intervention measures. Methods: A stratified cluster sampling method was used to investigate the status and influencing factors of being bullied by questionnaire among 3 875 college and middle school students in Ngari, Qamdo, Lhasa, Nagqu and Xigaze of Tibet, from September to November 2019. Chi-square test and Logistic regression method were used for data analysis. Results: The report rate of campus bullying among college and middle school students in Tibet was 5.50%; 4.35% for girls and 6.76% for boys；8.81% for college students, 1.64% for senior high school students and 5.94% for junior high school students. The results of multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that smoking ( OR =1.71), Internet addiction ( OR =3.82), depression ( OR =3.84), obesity ( OR =2.02), single parent family ( OR = 1.67 ) and reorganized family ( OR =3.74) were positively correlated with campus bullying ( P <0.05). Girls ( OR =0.66) and senior high school ( OR =0.28) were negatively correlated with campus bullying ( P <0.05). Conclusion Campus bullying is related to campus environment, family type, behaviors and life styles, etc. Efforts should be committed to build a caring campus culture and a good family moral education environment, in order to reduce the incidence of campus bullying and associated adverse effects.

Osteoporotic vertebral compression fracture (OVCF) can lead to lower back pain and may be even accompanied by scoliosis, neurological dysfunction and other complications, which will affect the daily activities and life quality of patients. Vertebral augmentation is an effective treatment method for OVCF, but it cannot correct unbalance of bone metabolism or improve the osteoporotic status, causing complications like lower back pain, limited spinal activities and vertebral refracture. The post-operative systematic and standardized rehabilitation treatments can improve curative effect and therapeutic efficacy of anti-osteoporosis, reduce risk of vertebral refracture, increase patient compliance and improve quality of life. Since there still lack relevant clinical treatment guidelines for postoperative rehabilitation treatments following vertebral augmentation for OVCF, the current treatments are varied with uneven therapeutic effect. In order to standardize the postoperative rehabilitation treatment, the Spine Trauma Group of the Orthopedic Branch of Chinese Medical Doctor Association organized relevant experts to refer to relevant literature and develop the "Guideline for postoperative rehabilitation treatment following vertebral augmentation for osteoporotic vertebral compression fracture (2022 version)" based on the clinical guidelines published by the American Academy of Orthopedic Surgeons (AAOS) as well as on the principles of scientificity, practicality and advancement. The guideline provided evidence-based recommendations on 10 important issues related to postoperative rehabilitation treatments of OVCF.

Objective:To analyze the clinical characteristics of Chlamydia psittaci pneumonia and to investigate the correlation between serum inflammatory biomarkers and severity of the disease. Methods:Sixteen patients with Chlamydia psittaci pneumonia admitted to the Huizhou Municipal Central Hospital from January 2020 to July 2021 were selected as the study subjects, including 10 severe cases and 6 mild cases. Clinical data were collected and analyzed, such as baseline characteristics, clinical symptoms, laboratory inspection and chest imaging manifestations. Results:① Thirteen Chlamydia psittaci pneumonia were associated with a definite bird or poultry contact history. Common symptoms included high fever, chill, cough, fatigue, and anorexia (16 cases), dyspnoea (12 cases), and other systemic symptoms. ② Laboratory test results showed normal white blood cell count (WBC, 10 cases), decreased lymphocyte count (LYM, 13 cases), increased high sensitive C-reactive protein (hs-CRP, 16 cases), D-dimer (15 cases), lactate dehydrogenase (LDH, 13 cases), aspartate aminotransferase (AST, 16 cases) and alanine aminotransferase (ALT, 12 cases) levels, however, the albumin (Alb, 15 cases) lever was decreased. The numbers of CD3 + T cells and CD4 + T cells decreased in 10 patients. ③ The levels of D-dimer, interleukins (IL-2, IL-6, IL-10) in severe Chlamydia psittaci pneumonia were significantly higher than those in mild Chlamydia psittaci pneumonia [D-dimer (μg/L): 10 257±4 203 vs. 1 085±642, IL-2 (ng/L): 1.1 (0.8, 1.7) vs. 0.3 (0.1, 0.7), IL-6 (ng/L): 315 (182, 505) vs. 75 (18, 131), IL-10 (ng/L): 7.0±4.1 vs. 2.3±0.7], but the LYM was lower (×10 9/L: 0.4±0.1 vs. 1.1±0.4), with significant differences (all P < 0.05). ④ Chest imaging manifestations were exudative lesions and large consolidation of lungs. Large consolidation of both lungs can occur in some critically ill patients. Conclusions:Chlamydia psittaci pneumonia is mainly associated with a bird or poultry contact history. The clinical manifestations usually present high fever, dyspnea, normal or slightly increased leucocytes, and lung consolidation. The levels of LYM, D-dimer, IL-2, IL-6 and IL-10 in serum are expected to predict the severity of the Chlamydia psittaci pneumonia.

Objective To investigate the genetic diversity and phylogenetic relationship of Sparganum isolates from snakes in Hunan Province. Methods The partial mitochondrial NADH dehydrogenase subunit 4 (pnad4) and NADH dehydrogenase subunit 5 (pnad5) genes were amplified using a PCR assay in 7 Sparganum isolates from snakes in Hunan Province and the amplification product was sequenced. The homology and genetic evolution were investigated using the software DNAMAN 7.0, MegAlign, DnaSP 5.0 and MEGA 5.0. Results The pnad4 and pnad5 gene sequences were approximately 578 bp and 484 bp in length in the 7 Sparganum isolates from Hunan Province, and the percentages of genetic variations were 0 to 2.8% and 0 to 0.8%, respectively. There were 4 haplotypes detected in both the pnad4 and pnad5 genes, with global haplotype diversities of 0.810 ± 0.016 and 0.905 ± 0.011, nucleotide diversities of 0.006 ± 0.005 and 0.004 ± 0.003, and mean nucleotide variations of 3.960 and 1.905, respectively. Phylogenetic analysis showed that all 7 Sparganum isolates from snakes in Hunan Province were clustered into the same branch with Spirometra erinaceieuropaei isolates from different regions/hosts in the world, which belonged to S. erinaceieuropaei, which were close to Diphyllobothrium latum and far from other tapeworms. Conclusion There is a low genetic variation in snake-derived S. erinaceieuropaei isolates from Hunan Province, and both pnad4 and pnad5 genes may be potential molecular genetic markers for identification of S. erinaceieuropaei.

Objective:To assess the impact of vaccination at school and influenza vaccination rates among school-age children on school absenteeism in Shenzhen.Methods:The study subjects were primary school students in Shenzhen. School absenteeism panel database from December 2017 to June 2020 of 286 primary schools in Shenzhen was merged with vaccination rates and organizational patterns ( i.e., vaccination at school vs. non-school) data of 9 districts in Shenzhen after influenza vaccination for children. The outcome was the number of school absenteeism. The treatment and control groups were distinguished by organizational patterns and district vaccination rates. Difference-in-Difference (DiD) Poisson regressions were used to analyze the effectiveness of vaccination at school and higher vaccination rates. Besides, a robustness test was performed on the regression results. Results:Poisson regression analysis and robustness test of regression results showed that vaccination at school and higher vaccination rates effectively reduced the risk of school absenteeism, with effectiveness against absenteeism of 32.6% (95% CI: 17.0%-45.3%, P<0.01) and 53.0% (95% CI: 42.1%-61.8%, P<0.01), respectively. Conclusion:A free influenza vaccination program for school-age children in Shenzhen and prioritizing school-based vaccination may be an effective measure to reduce the risk of school absenteeism.

This paper was to investigate the effect of total flavonoids of Lichi Semen(TFL) on carbon tetrachloride(CCl_4)-induced liver fibrosis in rats, analyze and predict its mechanism of action and potential quality markers(Q-marker). Firstly, male SD rats were taken and injected subcutaneously with a 40% CCl_4-vegetable oil solution twice a week for 8 consecutive weeks to establish a rat model of liver fibrosis. The rats with liver fibrosis were randomly divided into model group, silybin group(43.19 mg·kg~(-1)), Fuzheng Huayu Capsules group(462.75 mg·kg~(-1)), and TFL groups(100 mg·kg~(-1) and 25 mg·kg~(-1)), with normal rats as a blank group, 10 rats in each group. Except for the blank group, the rats in the other groups were subcutaneously injected with 40% CCl_4-vegetable oil solution of a maintenance dose, once a week. The rats in various treatment groups received corresponding doses of drugs, while the rats in the blank group and model group received the same volume of normal saline once a day for 4 weeks. At the end of the experiment, blood was collected from the abdominal aorta and the liver tissues were collected. The levels of total bilirubin(TBiL), direct bilirubin(DBiL), indirect bilirubin(IBiL), alanine aminotransferase(ALT), and aspartate aminotransferase(AST) in serum were detected by using an automatic biochemical detector. Masson staining was used to observe the histopathological changes of rat liver. Then, the chemical compositions of TFL were collected, and the action targets of these chemical compositions were predicted through SWISS database and reverse molecular docking server(DRAR-CPI). After screening of disease targets of liver fibrosis by Gene Cards database, the protein-protein interaction was analyzed with use of STRING database, and GO(gene ontology) analysis and KEGG(Kyoto encyclopedia of genes and genomes) enrich analysis were also carried out. Moreover, an iTRAQ proteomics technology was used to determine protein expression in liver tissues of rats in TFL, model and blank groups to verify the targets. Furthermore, Cytoscape software was used to establish and visualize the network of chemical components, targets and pathways, and predict the potential Q-marker of TFL. The results showed that the levels of TBiL, DBiL, IBiL, ALT, and AST in the model group were significantly higher than those in the blank normal group(P<0.05), and the above levels in the treatment groups were lower than those in the model group, but with no significant differences. Masson staining showed that the liver damage and the degree of fibrosis were severe in the model group, and were relieved to different degrees in the treatment groups. Then, 74 chemical components were screened, which could act on 865 targets such as EGFR and SRC, participating in the regulation of cancer pathways, PI3 K-Akt signaling pathway, HIF-1 signaling pathway and other signaling pathways closely related to liver fibrosis. Pinocembrin, quercetin, epicatechin, procyanidin A2, naringenin, nobiletin, phlorizin and rutin showed the highest correlation with liver fibrosis-related targets and pathways. Proteomics results showed that a total of 18 proteins among the 45 proteins predicted by internet pharmacology were identified, among which 6 proteins were significantly expressed, including 5 up-regulated proteins and 1 down-regulated protein. The protein expression of ALB, PLG, HSP90 AA1, EGFR and MAP2 K1 was significantly returned to a normal state in the TFL treatment groups. In conclusion, TFL may demonstrate the anti-hepatic fibrosis and potential hepatoprotective effects by regulating the expression of ALB, PLG, HSP90 AA1, EGFR and MAP2 K1, which may be associated with the regulation of multiple signaling pathways related to liver fibrosis such as PI3 K-Akt pathway. Pinocembrin, quercetin, epicatechin, procyanidin A2, naringenin, nobiletin, phlorizin and rutin could be regarded as potential Q-markers of TFL for quality control.
