Patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) require long-term pharmacotherapy. Due to the wide variety of clinically available drugs, medication safety has become increasingly concerning. As an indispensable component of pharmaceutical formulations, drug excipients may induce various adverse reactions, including rash, allergic responses, and gastrointestinal discomfort, and may even lead to severe organic injury. However, they are often overlooked in clinical practice. Therefore, identifying and managing excipient-related adverse reactions is crucial for ensuring medication safety. To address this issue, this article systematically reviews common excipients in IBD therapeutics, the underlying mechanisms of excipient-induced adverse reactions, and corresponding management strategies, aiming to enhance clinicians' awareness of excipient-related issues, improve their ability to recognize and manage such reactions, and ultimately ensure patient safety.

Objective To explore the association between occupational exposure to cesium and sex hormone levels in male workers. Methods A total of 988 male workers involved in assembly work at an electric vehicle assembly plant in Guangdong Province were recruited via purposive sampling. Blood samples of the workers were collected, and blood cesium-133 (Cs-133) levels were determined using inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry. Serum levels of estradiol, testosterone, progesterone, follicle-stimulating hormone, luteinizing hormone, and prolactin were measured using chemiluminescence immunoassay. Multiple linear regression analysis was performed to explore the associations between blood Cs-133 and the six sex hormones in the male workers. Results The median blood Cs-133 level was 2.23 μg/L, with a detection rate of 100.0%. Multiple linear regression analysis showed that blood Cs-133 levels were negatively associated with serum estradiol levels (P<0.05), after adjusting for covariates including age, length of service, educational level, marital status, body mass index (BMI), annual household income, alcohol consumption, and smoking. There was no significant interaction between blood Cs-133 levels and age, smoking, alcohol consumption, or BMI in relation to serum estradiol (all P>0.05). Conclusion Occupational exposure to Cs-133 is negatively associated with serum estradiol levels in the male workers of electric vehicle assembly industry, suggesting that occupational cesium exposure may influence male sex hormone profiles.

Objective The aim of the study is to analyze the incidence patterns and epidemiological characteristics of parasitic and vector-borne diseases in the Minhang and Jinshan districts of Shanghai, and provide evidence-based information for optimizing prevention and control measures. Methods We collected information from epidemic reports and epidemiological investigation forms for cases of parasitic and vector-borne diseases from 2005 to 2024 in Shanghai's Minhang and Jinshan districts. Descriptive epidemiological method were adopted to conduct a comparative analysis of incidence trends, epidemic characteristics, and infection sources. Results A total of 229 cases in 7 categories were reported between 2005 and 2024, with an average annual incidence rate of 0.36/100 000. The average annual incidence rate in Minhang District was significantly higher than that in Jinshan District. The most prevalent diseases were malaria and dengue fever, followed by Japanese encephalitis. Monthly case reports were available, predominantly from June to October, with a peak in July-August. A statistically significant difference was observed between the two districts in case distribution during June-October (P＜0.001), whereas no significant difference was found for July-August (P=0.331). The majority of cases were young men (111/229,48.47%), aged 20-39 years. Migrant workers/farmers constituted the largest occupational group (55/229, 24.02%). Registered residents of other provinces and cities (147/229,64.19%), and the main source of infection was overseas importation (112/229,48.91%). There were no statistically significant differences in gender and household-registration composition between the two districts (P＞0.05). Significant differences existed in age, occupation, and source of infection (P＜0.05). The imported diseases were malaria and dengue fever, with Africa and Southeast Asia being the primary source locations. Malaria was the predominant disease imported from other provinces and cities, with cases having been imported from abroad since 2012. Local infections were mainly Japanese encephalitis, followed by malaria (with the last local case reported in 2010). Cases between 2005 and 2009 were predominantly imported from other provinces and cities. The proportion of cases imported from abroad increased sharply after 2010, particularly in Minhang District. Local infections sometimes arise in Jinshan District, with Japanese encephalitis serving as the primary type. Conclusions Incidence rates of parasitic and vector-borne diseases in Minhang and Jinshan districts have generally remained low. To further reduce this disease burden, it will be necessary to strengthen joint measures for prevention and control, eliminate the environmental risk factors of vector organisms, enhance monitoring and precise control of the environment and inbound personnel to prevent the occurrence and transmission of parasitic and vector-borne diseases.

Paraplegia caused by spinal cord injury is a serious neurological complication, for which surgery is currently the main treatment method. Due to different surgical approaches, patients are usually expected to maintain a passive prone position for a long time or switch between the supine and prone positions. Affected by multiple factors such as neurogenic sensory disorders, pathological changes in muscle tone and operative duration, the risk of intraoperative acquired pressure injury (IAPI) is significantly increased. Current clinical prevention strategies for IAPI in these patients predominantly focus on localized pressure relief during positioning, lacking systematic, standardized comprehensive prevention protocols or evidence-based guidelines. To address it, Department of Nursing, Orthopedics Branch, China International Exchange and Promotive Association for Medical and Health Care, Spinal Trauma Professional Committee, Orthopedics Branch, Chinese Medical Doctor Association, Nursing Group of Spine and Spinal Cord Professional Committee of Chinese Association of Rehabilitation Medicine organized experts in relevant fields to formulate Guideline for the prevention of intraoperative acquired pressure injury in paraplegic patients with spinal cord injury ( version 2025), based on evidence-based medical evidence and latest research results and clinical practice at home and abroad. Eleven recommendations were put forward from the aspects of preoperative risk assessment, intraoperative prevention strategies, postoperative handover and monitoring, and supportive mechanisms for IAPI prevention, aiming to standardize the prevention measures and management strategies of IAPI in paraplegic patients with spinal cord injury and accelerate the recovery of patients and improve the therapeutic effect.

Objective:To evaluate the efficacy and safety of the CLAE (cladribine + cytarabine + etoposide) regimen in refractory/relapsed T cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia/lymphoma (R/R T-ALL/LBL) .Methods:Patients with R/R T-ALL/LBL received the CLAE regimen in a prospective, multicenter, single-arm clinical study or compassionate use. From March 2019 to August 2024, data from 25 patients (18 in the study across five centers and 7 receiving compassionate treatment in Peking University Third Hospital) were collected. Outcomes included objective response rate, complete response (CR) rate, partial response (PR) rate after 1–2 cycles, bridging to allo-HSCT, progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS), and treatment-related adverse effects.Results:Median age was 29 years (range, 13–63) ; 17 were male. Among the 24 evaluable patients, CR rate was 33.3% overall and 41.2% among enrolled patients. Median OS and PFS time were 199 (46–1 310) and 49 (28–1 310) days, respectively. Cumulative OS rate at 6 months, 1 year, and 2 years was (52.1±10.2) %, (29.7±9.3) %, and (27.1±9.1) %, respectively; cumulative PFS rate was (32.6±9.6) %, (24.9±8.9) %, and (23.8±8.7) %, respectively. Among patients achieving CR or PR (8 cases), median OS and PFS were not reached. Cumulative OS rate at 6 months, 1 year, and 2 years was (86.8±12.0) %, (78.3±14.6) %, and (72.9±15.7) %, respectively, and the cumulative PFS rate was (86.4±12.1) %, (74.8±15.3) %, and (72.9±15.7) %, respectively. Adverse events were mainly hematologic; no treatment-related mortality occurred. Seven patients achieving CR were bridged to allo-HSCT, with 5 remaining in continuous remission.Conclusion:The CLAE regimen is safe and effective for R/R T-ALL/LBL, facilitating CR as a bridge to allo-HSCT and potentially improving patient prognosis.

Body weight abnormalities, including overweight, obesity, and underweight, have become a dual public health challenge in Chinese adults: overweight and obesity lead to a variety of chronic complications, while underweight increases the risks of malnutrition, sarcopenia, and organ dysfunction. To systematically address these issues, multidisciplinary experts in endocrinology, sports science, nutrition, and psychiatry from various regions have held multiple weight management seminars. Based on the latest epidemiological data and clinical evidence, they expanded the guideline to include assessment and intervention strategies for underweight, in addition to the core content of obesity management. This guideline outlines the etiological mechanisms, evaluation methods, and multidimensional management strategies for overweight and obesity, covering key areas such as diagnosis and assessment, medical nutrition therapy, exercise prescription, pharmacological intervention, and psychological support. It is intended to provide a scientific and standardized approach to weight management across the adult population, aiming to curb the rising prevalence of obesity, mitigate complications associated with abnormal body weight, and improve nutritional status and overall quality of life.

Objective:To characterize and compare the polysaccharide components of Panax japonicus with its common counterfeits (Dysosma versipellis, Lycopus lucidus and Dysosma pleiantha); To provide a scientific basis for the quality evaluation of polysaccharides of Panax japonicu.Methods:Crude polysaccharides were extracted using water and subsequently precipitated with ethanol. Three batches of total polysaccharides from Panax japonicus, Dysosma versipellis, Lycopus lucidus and Dysosma pleiantha were prepared using the savage deproteinization method. The molecular weight distribution, functional group characteristics and monosaccharide composition of each batch were analyzed using high performance gel filtration chromatography (HPGFC), fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) and derivatization of 1-phenyl-3-methyl-5-pyrazolinone with high performance liquid chromatography (PMP-HPLC). Using DEAE column chromatography purification and specific enzymolysis, combined with high performance thin layer chromatography and carbohydrate gel electrophoresis, the saccharide profiles of polysaccharides of Panax japonicus and its counterfeits were analyzed and compared.Results:The molecular weight distribution of total polysaccharides from three batches of Panax japonicus exhibited high similarity, with a concentrated distribution ranging from 2.05×10 4 - 1.87×10 3 Da. However, the molecular weight distribution of total polysaccharides from Dysosma versipellis was scattered in regions 5.08×10 6-6.47×10 5 Da and 6.47×10 5-2.05×10 4 Da, while Lycopus lucidus and Dysosma pleiantha was scattered in regions 6.47×10 5-2.05×10 4 Da and 2.05×10 4-1.87×10 3 Da; the infrared spectra of all samples exhibited similarity, indicating that the sugar chains of each polysaccharide were predominantly linked by α-glycosidic bonds, with no significant differences was observed. In terms of monosaccharide composition, the polysaccharides from Panax japonicus, Dysosma versipellis and Dysosma pleiantha were mainly composed of glucose, galactose, arabinose, galacturonic acid, rhamnose and mannose. In contrast, the polysaccharides from Lycopus lucidus were distinct, primarily consisting of galactose and glucose; glycosidic linkage analysis revealed that the polysaccharides purified by DEAE column chromatography from Panax japonicus and its counterfeits were resistant to hydrolysis by β- galactosidase, but could be hydrolyzed by α-amylase and pectinase (except for Lycopus lucidus). The oligosaccharides produced by α-amylase hydrolysis of three batches of Panax japonicus polysaccharides were similar, showing clear differences from those of the counterfeits. The results of pectinase hydrolysis were correlated with the content of uronic acids. Conclusions:The total polysaccharides from Panax japonicus, Dysosma versipellis, Lycopus lucidus and Dysosma pleiantha exhibit significant differences in their molecular weight distributions. The monosaccharide composition of Lycopus lucidus polysaccharides is notably distinct, making it easily distinguishable from other species; purification using DEAE column chromatography, combined with HPTLC and polysaccharide analysis using carbohydrate gel electrophoresis (PACE), effectively differentiates the polysaccharides of Panax japonicus from its counterfeits. This approach provides a valuable reference for the quality analysis of polysaccharides in TCM. Additionally, it lays a foundation for the development and utilization of Panax japonicus polysaccharides.
