Objective To explore the efficacy and safety of converting the triple immunosuppressive regimen of tacrolimus (Tac) + mycophenolate mofetil (MMF) + prednisone (Pred) to a quadruple regimen of low-dose sirolimus (SRL) + low-dose Tac + MMF + Pred at 3 to 6 months after expanded criteria donor (ECD) kidney transplantation. Methods A single-center, retrospective, donor-matched controlled study included 22 ECD kidney transplant recipients from September 2021 to June 2024. Two recipients from the same donor kidneys were respectively assigned to the SRL group and the conventional triple regimen control group. The main outcome measures were the differences in serum creatinine (Scr), estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), and adverse events before the regimen conversion and after conversion during the 1, 3, 6, and 12-month follow-up. Results There were no statistically significant differences in baseline characteristics between the two groups. In the SRL group, Scr decreased and eGFR increased starting from 3 months after conversion, and this was superior to the control group starting from 6 months(all P < 0.05). There were no statistically significant differences in the incidence of rejection reactions, pulmonary infections, hyperlipidemia and proteinuria between the two groups after conversion and during the 12-month follow-up (all P > 0.05). Conclusions For ECD kidney transplant recipients, converting the triple regimen to the SRL quadruple regimen at 3 to 6 months after transplantation may improve the function of the transplanted kidney without increasing the risk of adverse events.

Esophageal cancer is a prevalent malignant tumor of the digestive tract in China, and radical surgery remains the cornerstone of its comprehensive treatment. However, multifactorial challenges such as postoperative gastrointestinal tract reconstruction, traumatic stress, and tumor-related metabolic disturbances render esophageal cancer patients highly susceptible to malnutrition. Perioperative nutritional support therapy plays a crucial role in enhancing surgical safety, improving clinical outcomes, and elevating patients' quality of life by regulating metabolic homeostasis, preserving organ function, and optimizing the immune microenvironment. This article reviews the mechanisms underlying malnutrition in esophageal cancer, methods for nutritional status assessment, and precision intervention pathways based on multi-omics evaluations. The aim is to strengthen clinicians' awareness of standardized perioperative nutritional management for esophageal cancer patients and promote its clinical implementation, thereby facilitating postoperative recovery and improving long-term quality of life.

OBJECTIVE To explore the efficacy and safety of toludesvenlafaxine in the treatment of patients with major depressive disorder (MDD) with anhedonia. METHODS This retrospective study included 160 patients with MDD with anhedonia who were treated at Hebei Mental Health Center from May 2023 to August 2025. These patients were divided into a control group ( n =81) and an observation group ( n =79) according to treatment regimens. All patients received transcranial magnetic stimulation therapy. On this basis,the control group was treated with Sertraline Hydrochloride Tablets, while the observation group received Toludesvenlafaxine Hydrochloride Sustained-Release Tablets,with an 8-week continuous treatment course.To compare t he clinical total effective rate, anhedonia remission rate,the severity of depressive symptoms,degree of anhedonia,cognitive function,social function and quality of life between the two groups before and after treatment, the incidence of adverse reactions during treatment was recorded simultaneously. RESULTS After treatment,the total effective rate and anhedonia remission rate of the observation group were significantly higher than the control group ( P <0.05). At the 4th and 8th weeks of treatment, the scores of Snaith-Hamilton Pleasure Scale, Hamilton Depression Rating Scale-17 Items, and Sheehan Disability Scale of both groups were significantly lower than those before treatment in the same group, and the observation group was significantly lower than the control group ( P <0.05); the scores of Montreal Cognitive Assessment and Quality of Life Enjoyment and Satisfaction Questionnaire-Short Form were significantly higher than those before treatment in the same group, and the observation group was significantly higher than the control group ( P <0.05). There was no statistically significant difference in the overall incidence of adverse reactions between the two groups ( P >0.05). CONCLUSIONS Toludesvenlafaxine can significantly improve depressive symptoms, cognitive function, and social function in MDD patients with anhedonia,with good safety.

Objective To investigate the etiology and treatment of dysuria shortly after holmium laser enucleation of the prostate (HoLEP) for benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), so as to improve the therapeutic efficacy. Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on 1361 BPH patients who received HoLEP at our hospital during Mar. 2018 and Mar. 2025. All patients underwent ultrasound, computed tomography (CT), urethral probing or radiography, cystourethroscopy, and urodynamic testing. The causes, treatments and prognosis of dysuria after operation were summarized. Results ninety-eight patients (7.2%) experienced dysuria within 3 months after surgery, and all patients received initial urethral dilation. Among the 62 cases with urethral stricture, 28 were treated with urethral dilation (average of 8 sessions), 16 underwent external urethral incision, 8 underwent anterior urethroplasty, and 10 underwent transurethral plasma incision for urethral stricture. Of the 12 cases with residual prostate tissue, 5 underwent urethral plasma prostatectomy and 7 received medication. All of the 12 cases with bladder neck contracture underwent transurethral plasma incision of the bladder neck and local drug injection. Five cases with intravesical blood clots underwent urethral blood clot irrigation, 2 of which developed active bleeding and then underwent electrocoagulation. Four cases with detrusor dysfunction had catheters re-indwelled for one week followed by medication. Two cases with stone and one case with tissue fragment impacted in the urethra underwent urethral holmium lithotripsy and cystoscopic removal. All patients underwent reoperation successfully and experienced complete resolution or significant improvement of urinary difficulties. Conclusion A certain proportion of patients experience dysuria after HoLEP, with diverse etiologies. The combination of prevention and treatment can reduce the incidence of dysuria.

Objective:
To investigate the annual trend and influencing factors of screening myopia prevalence among children and adolescents in Tianhe District, Guangzhou from 2021 to 2024, so as to provide a scientific basis for optimizing targeted and precise regional myopia prevention and control strategies.
Methods:
From 2021 to 2024, a stratified cluster random sampling method was adopted to recruit 10 132 students ranging from senior kindergarten to senior high school from fixed monitoring sites for myopia screening. Additionally, a questionnaire survey on myopia related factors was administered to 7 115 students in grade 4 and above. Generalized estimating equation (GEE) models were used to analyze the annual changing trends and interaction effects, and mixed effects models were performed for sensitivity analysis.
Results:
The screening myopia prevalence among children and adolescents in Tianhe District from 2021 to 2024 was 58.9%, 57.3%, 56.8%, and 54.7%, respectively, and showed a statistically significant difference ( χ 2=9.06, P <0.05). The prevalence rates among senior kindergarten, primary school, junior high school, regular senior high school, and vocational high school students were 8.7%, 40.7%, 74.3%, 86.7%, and 75.6%, respectively (χ 2= 2 493.11, P <0.05). The prevalence was significantly higher in female students (60.9%) than in male students (53.3%) ( χ 2= 59.22 , P <0.05). GEE analysis showed that male students ( OR =0.59), primary school students ( OR =0.45), those who spent less than 6 hours per day sitting indoors ( OR =0.78), and those who used electronic devices for no more than 2 hours per day ( OR = 0.25 ) all had lower risks of screening myopia (all P <0.05). Students in regular high schools ( OR =2.01), those who engaged in activities inside the classroom during breaks ( OR =1.55), those who engaged in activities outside the classroom but within the school building during breaks ( OR = 1.46), those who never or only occasionally maintained proper reading and writing postures ( OR =1.32), those with less than 2 hours of daily outdoor activity ( OR =1.86), those with both parents being myopic ( OR =2.48), those with only the father being myopic ( OR =1.50), and those with only the mother being myopic ( OR =1.63) all had higher risks of screening detected myopia (all P <0.05). Interaction effect analysis revealed annual heterogeneity in the effects of daily outdoor activity time ≥2 h and daily electronic device use time >2 h on screening myopia prevalence (all P <0.05).
Conclusions
The screening myopia prevalence among children and adolescents in Tianhe District, Guangzhou, demonstrates a continuous downward trend. The impacts of daily outdoor activity duration and electronic device usage time on screening myopia exhibit annual heterogeneity. Dynamic and targeted myopia prevention and control strategies should be formulated in accordance with regional demographic features and environmental changes.

Objective:
To understand the dose response relationship between urinary fluoride and dental fluorosis among children from drinking water borne endemic fluorosis areas in Tianjin, so as to provide a scientific basis for assessing fluoride exposure risk among children from endemic areas and establishing reference values for urinary fluoride.
Methods:
From January to December 2024, 83 endemic villages were selected in Tianjin. A total of 2 382 children aged 8-12 years from these villages underwent dental fluorosis examination, along with water fluoride and urinary fluoride testing. Additionally, data from areas where the drinking water fluorosis control target was achieved for more than 12 years (10 villages, 50 people per village) were included as controls. A restricted cubic spline model was used to analyze the relationship between urinary fluoride levels and dental fluorosis prevalence, and benchmark dose (BMD) and benchmark dose lower bound (BMDL), as well as reference dose (RfD), were calculated using the benchmark dose method.
Results:
The prevalence rates of dental fluorosis among children in drinking water borne endemic fluorosis areas and areas of normal fluoride content in water in Tianjin were 10.58%, 7.60%, with a geometric mean urinary fluoride level of 0.72 and 0.60 mg/L,respectively. There were statistically significant differences in both dental fluorosis prevalence and geometric mean urinary fluoride levels between the drinking water borne endemic fluorosis areas group and the areas of normal fluoride content in water ( χ 2/Z = 4.05 , -7.31, both P <0.05). Across different periods of water source improvement, there were statistically significant differences in overall population, male, and female dental fluorosis prevalence rates and geometric mean urinary fluoride levels ( χ 2/H =44.95, 23.96, 21.05; 168.39, 63.93, 107.50, all P <0.01). Significant differences were also observed across age groups among children from drinking water borne endemic fluorosis areas in terms of dental fluorosis prevalence and geometric mean urinary fluoride levels ( χ 2/H =32.14, 79.73, both P <0.01). The results of the restricted cubic spline model showed that the risk of dental fluorosis in different sex, age and overall children in the drinking water borne endemic fluorosis areas increased significantly with rising urinary fluoride concentration(all P-general trend <0.05). The BMD value for the drinking water borne endemic fluorosis areas was 1.72 mg/L, the BMDL was 1.31 mg/L, and the RfD was 1.31 mg/L.
Conclusions
The prevalence of dental fluorosis among children in the drinking water borne endemic fluorosis areas in Tianjin has been effectively controlled, but it is still higher than that in the areas of normal fluoride content in water. Moreover, urinary fluoride levels and dental fluorosis prevalence among children from drinking water borne endemic fluorosis areas show a clear dose response relationship.

Objective:To observe the diuretic effects of Zhuling Decoction on mice with adriamycin nephropathy (ADRN); To explore its mechanism.Methods:Totally 32 SPF male C57BL/6 mice were divided into a blank group of 7 mice and a model group of 25 mice using a random number table method. ADRN model was prepared by single tail vein injection of 0.01 g/kg of amphotericin. Two weeks later, the successfully modeled mice were divided into a model group (7 mice), a furosemide group (8 mice), and a Zhuling Decoction group (8 mice). The blank group and model group mice were given equal volumes of injection water by gavage. The furosemide group was given 2.6 mg/kg of furosemide by gavage, and the Zhuling Decoction group was given 6.5 g/kg of Zhuling Decoction by gavage, once a day, for 8 consecutive weeks. Changes in body weight and urine output of mice were observed. A biochemical analyzer was used to detect 24-hour urinary protein quantification and blood potassium and SCr levels in mice. HE staining was used to observe pathological changes in mouse kidneys, and immunohistochemistry and Western blot were used to detect the homology of cyclin dependent kinase 18 (CDK18), STIP1, and the expressions of U-box protein 1 (STUB1) and aquaporin 2 (AQP2) in mouse kidney tissue cells.Results:Compared with the model group, both the furosemide and Zhuling Decoction groups exhibited increased 24-hour urine output ( P<0.05); compared with the model group and furosemide group, Zhuling Decoction group showed reduced average optical density values and protein expressions of CDK18 and AQP2 ( P<0.05) and increased STUB1 average optical density value and protein expression ( P<0.05). Conclusion:Zhuling Decoction can increase 24-hour urine output in ADRN mice, and the mechanism may be related to down-regulation of CDK18 and AQP2 protein expressions and up-regulation of STUB1 protein expression, thereby modulating the CDK18/STUB1/AQP2 pathway and reducing water reabsorption.

China emerges as a major country in nuclear energy development and the application of nuclear and radiologic technology. The diagnosis and treatment of acute radiation syndrom (ARS) caused by external irradiation represent a core function in the country′s medical rescue of nuclear and radiological emergencies. Clinically, ARS manifests hematopoietic, gastrointestinal, cutaneous, and central nervous system syndromes, with specific clinical manifestations, signs, severity, and prognosis strongly correlated with radiation dose. China has established a number of national and provincial centers for treating radiation-induced damage. Nevertheless, most medical staff have limited experience in ARS treatment. This consensus presents a summary of recent experience in treating ARS of China. In combination with recommendations from international organizations such as the World Health Organization (WHO), this consensus proposes key evidence of critical clinical issues of ARS, covering all links in the rescue of external irradiation-induced ARS. Initially, clinical diagnosis, syndromes, and severe degrees should be determined based on clinical symptoms and dose estimates. It is necessary to normalize clinical treatment measures for hematopoietic recovery, gastrointestinal injury treatment, infection control, symptomatic treatment, and multi-organ function preservation. To this end, this consensus offers cautions. This consensus provides principles of treatment with traditional Chinese medicine, psychological intervention, and follow-up. Additionally, it highlights multidisciplinary collaboration. It is recommended that this consensus be applied in relevant treatment centers.
