Chronic prostatitis,a common condition in andrology,is clinically characterized by a prolonged course,resistance to treatment,and frequent recurrence.In traditional Chinese medicine,it is classified under the categories of"turbid sperm,""overstrain strangury,"and"vaginal pain."Based on the"host-guest interaction-collateral disease"theory,we believe that healthy qi deficiency,latent pathogenic factors,and collateral obstruction are the primary pathological factors of this disease,which run through the entire process of chronic prostatitis occurrence and development.Accordingly,we propose that obstruction of collaterals and apathesia of the semen chamber are the core pathogenesis.The disease progression can be divided into three pathological stages:"deficiency,depression,and blood stasis."Spleen and kidney deficiency and malnutrition of collaterals form the pathological foundation.In the deficiency stage,treatment strategies involve reinforcing qi and nourishing the collaterals,using Fuzheng Yangrong Decoction.During disease progression,dampness and heat invasion,as well as collateral stagnation qi,are key contributors to disease progression.Thus,treatment focuses on clearing heat and dampness,promoting qi flow,and smoothing the collaterals,achieved with a modified Qiantongding Decoction.In the final stage,blood stasis and collateral obstruction dominate,warranting therapeutic strategies aimed at tonifying and removing blood stasis,addressing both the body and the collaterals simultaneously using the modified Guiling Huayu Decoction.Overall,the clinical treatment generally focuses on the concept of function through free flow,combination of unblocking and tonifying.This study provides a novel perspective and reference for clinical differentiation and treatment of chronic prostatitis.

Objective: To understand the prevalence and related factors of depressive symptoms among primary and secondary school students in the in depth monitoring counties of China s Rural Compulsory Education Nutrition Improvement Program, so as to provide a basis for prevention and psychological intervention of depressive symptoms among children and adolescents in rural areas. Methods: In November 2022, a stratified random sampling method was adopted to collect height and weight data, basic personal and family information of 7 949 primary and secondary school students from grade three to grade nine through physical measurements and questionnaires in 56 key monitoring schools implementing the Student Nutrition Improvement Program in 7 in depth monitoring counties (Jalaid Banner in Inner Mongolia, Jinzhai County in Anhui, Mao Xian in Sichuan, Tiandeng County in Guangxi, Mian County in Shaanxi, Zhaozhou County in Heilongjiang and Youxi County in Fujian), and to obtain the information related to their depressive symptoms through the self assessment questionnaire on depression. Multivariate Logistic regression analysis was conducted to analyze the prevalence of depressive symptoms among primary and secondary school students, as well as their related factors. Results: The detection rate of depressive symptoms among primary and secondary school students in the in depth monitored counties was 23.5%. Logistic regression analysis showed that the probability of detecting depressive symptoms was higher among female students, middle school students, students whose video screen duration per day was >2 h, and students whose parents marital status was divorced or widowed ( OR =1.40, 1.64, 1.60, 1.24), and students whose sleep duration reached the recommended standard, whose parents usually accompanied them daily for time was 60-<120 min and ≥120 min, and students whose mothers literacy level was middle school graduation had lower probability of detecting depressive symptoms ( OR =0.85, 0.84, 0.71, 0.76) ( P < 0.05 ). Conclusion The detection rate of depressive symptoms among students in the in depth monitoring area is high, and targeted interventions need to be developed for students to reduce the risk of mental health problems.

Objective To investigate the distribution of virulence genes of Klebsiella pneumoniae(KPN)and to evaluate the diagnostic efficacy of peg-344 for hypervirulent strains.Methods KPN isolates were col-lected from January to December in 2023 in Xuanwu Hospital,Capital Medical University.Whonet5.6 was used to analyze the distribution and drug resistance of bacterial strains.Toxicity testing included wire string test,PCR amplification of virulence genes(peg-344,rmpA,iutA,iroB),K1 and K2 capsule serotypes,serum resistance test,and diagnostic efficacy of detection was analyzed by using receiver operating characteristic curve.Results A total of 122 KPN isolates were collected,including 45(36.9%)sensitive strains,20(16.4%)extended-spectrum β-lactamase positive strains,and 57(46.7%)carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae strains.The specimens were mainly isolated from sputum,urine,and blood,and mainly came from Department of Urology,Department of Neurology,Intensive Care Unit,and Department of Neurosurgery.The positive rate of string test was 27.9%.PCR detected K1(12.3%),K2(8.2%),peg-344(62.3%),rmpA(60.7%),and iutA(73.8%),but the iroB result was negative,and strains with multiple virulence genes accounted for 63.1%.The results of the serum resistance test showed that 43.5%,31.1%,and 25.4%of the samples were at levels 1-2,3-4,and 5-6,respectively.peg-344 had the largest area under the curve for diagnosing the hy-pervirulent strains,followed by peg-344+iutA and peg-344+rmpA.Conclusion KPN is widely distributed in the hospital,and there are a variety of virulence genes.peg-344 has clinical value in distinguishing low viru-lence from high virulence in KPN.

Objective: To analyze the features of unhealthy lifestyle patterns among primary and secondary school students in the nutrition improvement program for rural compulsory education students (NIPRCES) areas in China in 2021 and 2023, so as to provide data support for lifestyle promotion and healthy development among primary and secondary school students. Methods: Adopting a cluster random sampling method, data on primary and secondary students aged 7-15 years from nutrition and health surveillance of China NIPRCES in 2021 and 2023 were collected. The prevalence of unhealthy lifestyles among primary and secondary students such as physical inactivity, outdoor inactivity, excessive screen time, and sleep deprivation by gender, school section, urban/rural, and region were analyzed. The reporting rates of the above indicators among primary and secondary students were compared by Chi-square test. Results: In 2021 and 2023, the rates of moderate to vigorous physical inactivity among primary and secondary school students were 79.2% and 80.4%, the rates of outdoor inactivity were 42.8% and 49.3%, the rates of excessive video time were 2.6% and 2.9%, the rates of sleep deprivation were 32.9% and 22.6%, and the differences were statistically significant( χ 2=51.86,1 071.48,18.36,3 296.99, P <0.05). In 2023, the rate of outdoor inactivity for primary and secondary students increased by 6.5 percentage points compared with 2021, and the rate of sleep deprivation decreased by 10.3 percentage points compared with that in 2021. In 2021 and 2023, the reporting rates of moderate to vigorous physical inactivity, outdoor inactivity, and sleep deprivation among girls and junior high school students were higher than those among boys ( χ 2=174.41,180.11; 175.75, 85.46 ;92.22,151.35) and elementary school students ( χ 2=136.64,5.75; 40.55,4.71;162.80,3 291.61); the reporting rates of moderate to vigorous physical inactivity( χ 2=194.43,118.60) and sleep deprivation ( χ 2=969.66,983.72) among urban students were higher than those among rural students; the reporting rates of excessive video time for boys and junior high school students were higher than those for girls ( χ 2=103.62,84.85) and elementary school students ( χ 2=810.09,626.51)( P <0.05). From a regional distribution perspective, the reporting rates of moderato to vigorous physical inactivity, outdoor inactivity, and excessive video time among primary and seconday school students in the central and western regions were lower than those in the eastern region ( χ 2= 663.44,302.78; 356.97,82.10;50.89,81.83) ( P <0.05). Conclusions Unhealthy lifestyles remain prevalent among primary and secondary students in NIPRCES areas of China. These findings underscore the need to strengthen policy implementation for promoting healthy lifestyles among primary and secondary school students.

OBJECTIVE To analyze the standardization and influential factors medication use for the prevention and treatment of glucocorticoid-induced osteoporosis(GIOP).METHODS The data of inpatients diagnosed as rheumatic immune diseases in our hospital from January 1,2022,to December 31,2023,who required long-term use of glucocorticoids,were collected to analyze the risk stratification for GIOP-related fractures and the utilization of prevention and treatment drug in patients.Univariate analysis and Logistic stepwise regression analysis were employed to screen the factors influencing the standardization of prevention and treatment drug use in patients.RESULTS Among 354 patients,148 patients(41.81%)had a low risk of osteoporotic fractures,103 patients(29.10%)had a moderate risk,and 103 patients(29.10%)had a high risk.The top three drugs used in the prevention and treatment of GIOP were calcium supplements(78.81%),vitamin D preparations(74.01%),and anti-osteoporosis drugs(21.19%).A total of 133 patients(37.57%)used the drugs for GIOP prevention and treatment in a standardized manner.The standardization rate of prevention and treatment in patients with low fracture risk was significantly higher than those with high and moderate fracture risk,and the standardization rate in patients with high fracture risk was significantly higher than those with moderate fracture risk(P＜0.05).Besides,the univariate analysis showed that low fracture risk served as a prevention factor for the standardized use of prevention and treatment drugs for GIOP,while moderate fracture risk,smoking or drinking,the occurrence of adverse drug reactions,and having an educational level below junior college were risk factors for the normative use of GIOP prevention and treatment drug(P＜0.05).Logistic stepwise regression analysis showed that patients with low and moderate fracture risk,a history of smoking or drinking,and adverse drug reactions to anti-osteoporosis drugs had a lower standardization rate of prevention and treatment;patients who visited tertiary hospital for the past month and had a longer duration of glucocorticoid use had a higher standardization rate of prevention and treatment(P＜0.05).CONCLUSIONS The standardized rate of prevention and treatment drugs used for GIOP in our hospital is relatively low.Patients with moderate to high fracture risk,a history of smoking or drinking,and those who experience adverse drug reactions after taking anti-osteoporosis drugs have lower rates of standardized prevention and treatment.Conversely,patients who sought treatment at tertiary hospital for the past month and had a longer duration of glucocorticoid had higher rates of standardized prevention and treatment.

Objective:To prepare PLGA electrospinning membranes doped with hollow mesoporous silica nanoparticles loaded with metformin and investigate their biological properties.Methods:PLGA(Control group)and PLGA/HMSN/Met electrospun membranes(Experimental group)were prepared by electrospinning technology.The microscopic morphology of the 2 groups of electrospun mem-branes was observed by SEM.The hydrophilicity,elemental composition and in vitro drug release were detected by contact angle meas-urement,EDS,and drug release test,respectively.SEM and laser scanning confocal microscope(LSCM)were used to observe the growth of periodontal ligament stem cells(PDLSCs)on the 2 groups of electrospun membranes,and CCK-8 assay was used to detect the cell proliferation.Results:Both electrospun membranes had extracellular matrix(ECM)-like fiber structures.The PLGA/HMSN/Met electrospun membranes could slowly release Met for up to 35 days,and the hydrophilicity of PLGA membranes was improved by HMSN-Met doped.The composite electrospun membranes had good cell biocompatibility in vitro,and could promote cell proliferation.Conclu-sion:Modification of PLGA with HMSN-Met can improve the hydrophilicity of PLGA electrospun membranes,continuously release Met,and have good cell biocompatibility.

Radiation-induced brain injury is a serious untoward effect of radiotherapy for malignant tumors. Patients received radiotherapy frequently occur cognitive dysfunction which seriously affects the quality of life. Although the exact mechanisms regarding radiation-induced cognitive dysfunction remain unclear, prevention strategies targeting cognitive dysfunction are increasingly applied to clinical intervention, including whole brain radiotherapy with hippocampus avoidance, stereotactic radiosurgery in patients with multiple brain metastases, and pretreatment with neuroprotective drugs such as memantine and donepezil. In addition, measures including appropriate radiotherapy management models, regular cognitive tests, and therapeutic measures at the appropriate time are critical to improve the quality of life for brain tumor patients.

Objective: To examine the short-term outcomes of minimally invasive reoperation for severe tricuspid regurgitation after left-sided valve surgery. Methods: From January 2015 to December 2018, a total of 89 patients with severe tricuspid regurgitation after left-sided valve surgery received reoperation in Department of Cardiovascular Surgery, Zhongshan Hospital, Fudan University were included in this study. There were 21 males and 68 females, aging of (56.4±7.9) years (range: 41 to 74 years). The interval between previous left-sided valve surgery and tricuspid reoperation was (14.1±6.1) years (range: 4 to 33 years). A combination of multiple minimally invasive techniques were adopted, including endoscopy-assist right minithoracotomy approach, peripheral cannulation strategy with the vacuum-assist single venous drainage technique, heart beating technique, and temporary percutaneous pacemaker implantation, with a concomitant enhancement in preoperative right cardiac function optimization. Results: All patients received minimally invasive isolated tricuspid valve replacement (n=81) or tricuspid valve repair (n=8). After the application of multiple minimally invasive techniques, the operative mortality rate was only 3.4% (3/89). The causes of death were progressive right heart failure with multiorgan failure (n=1) and low cardiac output associated with postoperative bleeding (n=2). Regarding to the perioperative complications, renal replacement therapy rate was 5.6% (5/89), permanent pacemaker implantation rate was 1.1% (1/89), and the incidence of stroke was 0. Mechanical ventilation time was 24(24) hours, ICU stay time was 2.5 (3.0) days (M(Q_R)). During the short-term follow-up, there were no case of severe tricuspid regurgitation, 2 cases of moderate regurgitation, 4 cases of mild-to-moderate regurgitation. Conclusions For severe tricuspid regurgitation after left-sided valve surgery, the advanced minimally invasive techniques can significantly reduce the operative mortality and morbidity. Minimally invasive bioprosthetic tricuspid valve replacement is a reliable alternative for severe tricuspid regurgitation after left-sided valve surgery.
