Objective: To understand the epidemiological characteristics and disease burden of influenza like illness (ILI) among student populations, so as to provide data support for policy formulation and optimal allocation of health resources. Methods: From January 2024 to February 2025, a questionnaire survey was conducted among parents of kindergarten, primary school, junior and senior high school students in 9 districts of Shenzhen, including Longhua, Futian, Bao an, Longgang, Luohu, Nanshan, Guangming, Pingshan and Yantian. Parents were asked to complete the questionnaire based on whether their children had fever, cough, vomiting, diarrhea, rash and other common symptoms in 2024. A total of 3 537 parents were investigated, and 444 ILI cases were included as study subjects. The epidemiological burden, including incidence rate of influenza, visitation rate, years lived with disability (YLDs) and economic burden (including direct economic burden, indirect economic burden and intangible burden) were analyzed. Results: The incidence rate of influenza among students in Shenzhen in 2024 was 12.55%. The ILI incidence rates in kindergarten, primary school, junior and senior high school were 14.01%, 11.69% and 5.23%, respectively, with a statistically significant difference ( χ 2= 45.20, P <0.01). The ILI consultation rate among students was 85.36%, and the consultation rates in kindergarten (87.36%) and primary school students (84.62%) were higher than those in junior and senior high school students ( 56.52 %) ( χ 2=16.47, P <0.01). A total of 78.88% of cases did not receive etiological detection.The median total economic burden per ILI case was 2 354.62 yuan, including direct medical costs of 300.00 yuan, direct non medical costs of 212.50 yuan, indirect costs of 1 000.00 yuan, and intangible burden of 500.00 yuan. Conclusions Schools are high risk environment for influenza, and younger students are a high risk group for ILI. The disease burden caused by student ILI remains substantial.

Objective To explore the molecular mechanism of Jianfu mixture in the treatment of erectile dysfunction （ED） by network pharmacology and molecular docking techniques, and validate its core targets and mechanisms through in vitro experiments. Methods The active components and corresponding molecular targets of Jianfu mixture were searched by searching TCMSP and Batman-TCM databases, and the disease targets of ED were searched by using GeneCards database. Find the intersection of drug ingredient target and disease target. The interaction between intersected targets was described and analyzed by String database, and the analysis results were visualized by Cytoscape software to determine the core target and the corresponding active components. GO functional enrichment analysis and KEGG pathway enrichment analysis were performed for intersection targets; the core target within the intersection were found through MCODE plug-in on Cytoscape software and molecular docking was performed with the corresponding active ingredients. An endothelial dysfunction model was established by transfecting HUVECs with si-eNOS. Intervene with different concentrations of the Jianfu mixture for the model cells for 24 h. QPCR was used to detect mRNA expression of core targets （MAPK1, MAPK3, JUN, ESR1, MAPK8）; Western blot was used to analyze protein expression （eNOS, JUN, p-JUN, MAPK, p-MAPK） and phosphorylation levels. Results 144 effective active components and 168 active components target-disease targe intersection of Jianfu mixture were obtained. GO analysis revealed 200 5 biological processes, 151 molecular functions, and 63 cellular components. KEGG analysis yielded 181 pathways. 5 core targets including MAPK1, MAPK3, JUN, ESR1 and MAPK8 were screened out. The active components such as β-sitosterol, kaempferol, astapterocarpan had good binding affinity with the core target. In vitro experiments confirmed successful construction of the endothelial dysfunction model （eNOS expression significantly decreased after si-eNOS transfection）. Jianfu mixture dose-dependently inhibited mRNA expression of MAPK1, MAPK3, JUN, ESR1, and MAPK8. Additionally, it reduced phosphorylation levels of JUN and MAPK, indicating inhibition of the JNK/c-Jun and ERK/MAPK signaling pathways to improve endothelial function. Conclusion Jianfu mixture treats ED by suppressing abnormal activation of multi-target signaling pathways （MAPK/JUN/ESR1）, reducing endothelial apoptosis, and promoting NO synthesis. This mechanism aligns with the traditional Chinese medicine principle of “activating blood circulation, resolving stasis, tonifying Qi, and strengthening cardiovascular function.” The study provided molecular-level evidence for the therapeutic efficacy of Jianfu mixture in ED management.

Objective To explore the effects of Emotional Freedom Techniques combined with PERMA model intervention on fear of disease progression and quality of life in postoperative liver cancer patients.Methods A total of 58 liver cancer patients admitted from September 2023 to February 2024 were randomly divided into the experimental group(n=29)and the control group(n=29)using a random number table method.The experimental group received Emotional Freedom Techniques combined with PERMA-based positive psychological intervention,while the control group received the holistic nursing and routine psychological guidance.Both groups underwent the continuous intervention for 8 weeks.Outcomes were assessed using the Fear of Progression Questionnaire-Short Form(FoP-Q-SF),Distress Thermometer(DT),Self-Rating Anxiety Scale(SAS),Self-Rating Depression Scale(SDS),Cancer Fatigue Scale(CFS),Athens Insomnia Scale(AIS)and Index of Well-Being(IWB).Results After the intervention,the experimental group showed the significantly lower scores than those in the control group in FoP-Q-SF(24.97±2.34/34.10±8.46),DT(2.24±0.95/2.93±1.33),SAS(49.55±1.35/58.55±4.60),SDS(51.86±1.58/61.79±4.00),CFS(4.03±0.94/5.10±1.18),and AIS(2.45±1.12/4.07±0.96)(all P<0.05),while the IWB score(10.56±1.74/7.39±2.05)was significantly higher than that in the control group(P<0.05).Conclusion The combination of Emotional Freedom Techniques and PERMA model intervention can effectively alleviate the disease-related fears,improve the negative emotions,reduce the physical symptoms and enhance the subjective well-being in postoperative liver cancer patients,and it has a significant clinical application value.

Objective:To investigate the correlation between serum prostaglandin E2 (PGE2), heat-shock protein 70 (HSP-70) and the severity of bleeding in patients with peptic ulcer bleeding (PUB).Methods:A total of 122 patients with peptic ulcer (PU) admitted to Chang'an Hospital from March 2021 to March 2024 were retrospectively collected and divided into simple PU group (50 cases) and PUB group (72 cases) according to whether PUB occurred. Serum levels of PGE2 and HSP-70 were determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Spearman test was used to analyze the correlation between serum PGE2, HSP-70 levels and bleeding severity in PUB patients. Logistic regression was used to analyze the risk factors of PUB, and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was used to analyze the predictive value of serum PGE2 and HSP-70 levels on the bleeding degree of PUB patients.Results:The proportion of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugsnon-ster (NSAID) used and Helicobacter pylori (Hp) infection, thromboplastin time (APTT) and prothrombin time (PT) in the PUB group were higher than those in the PU group: 42.00%(21/50) vs. 25.00%(18/72), 36.00%(18/50) vs. 58.33%(42/72), (28.78 ± 3.24) s vs. (26.72 ± 3.89) s, (13.14 ± 2.56) s vs. (11.26 ± 2.15) s, and the serum levels of PGE2 and HSP-70 were lower than those in the PU group: (174.25 ± 18.21) ng/L vs. (236.44 ± 24.52) ng/L, (0.78 ± 0.22) μg/L vs. (1.24 ± 0.38) μg/L, there were statistical significances ( P<0.05). The serum levels of PGE2 and HSP-70 in PUB patients decreased gradually with the severity of hemorrhage ( P<0.05). Spearman test showed that serum PGE2 and HSP-70 levels were negatively correlated with the severity of bleeding in PUB patients ( r = - 0.720, - 0.586, P<0.01). Logistic regression analysis showed that serum PGE2 and HSP-70 levels were protective factors for PUB ( P<0.05), while NSAID used, Hp infection, APTT and PT were risk factors for PUB ( P<0.05). ROC curve analysis results showed that the area under the curve of serum PGE2 and HSP-70 combined to predict the severity of bleeding in PUB patients was 0.935, which was higher than that predicted by the two indexes alone. Conclusions:The expression of serum PGE2 and HSP-70 are down regulated in PUB patients, and have correlated with the severity of bleeding. The joint detection of two indicators is more conductive to predicting the degree of bleeding in PUB patients.

The common types of pain are pelvic girdle pain, limb joint pain and low back pain.

Objective:To evaluate the feasibility and safety of performing multi-procedure remote urological surgeries by integrating 5G communication technology with domestically manufactured robotic surgical systems.Methods:Patients requiring urological laparoscopic surgery for benign lesions or tumors were prospectively enrolled at Gansu Provincial Hospital from May 2023 to June 2024. Inclusion criteria included age ≥18 years, body mass index (BMI) between 18 and 30 kg/m 2, and American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) classification Ⅰ-Ⅲ. Tumor-related surgical indicators were as follows: renal tumors staged ≤T 2, solitary tumors, or maximum diameter ≤10 cm; intermediate- to low-risk prostate cancer (clinical stage ≤T 2b), with preoperative prostate-specific antigen (PSA) ≤20 ng/ml or Gleason score ≤7; adrenal tumors with a diameter ≤7 cm or ≥3 cm for non-functional adenomas; and bladder tumors staged ≤T 2. Exclusion criteria included participation in other investigational drug or device clinical trials within the past 1 month, pregnancy or breastfeeding, and patients requiring emergency surgery. Patients with severe cardiovascular or circulatory diseases contraindicating surgery, and individuals with epilepsy, psychiatric disorders, or cognitive impairments were also excluded. Additionally, patients with active bleeding, coagulation disorders, or platelet counts <80×10 9/L were excluded. A 5G communication link was established between the main campus and the new branch of Gansu Provincial Hospital, approximately 70 km apart. Remote surgeries were performed using the domestically manufactured robotic surgical system (Toumai MT-1000). Perioperative key indicators, intraoperative network conditions, and robotic system performance were systematically recorded. Results:This study involved 14 patients, comprising 3 cases of renal cysts, 3 cases of renal tumors, 3 cases of nonfunctional kidneys, 2 cases of adrenal tumors, 1 case of bladder tumor, 1 case of prostate cancer, and 1 case of ureteral-bladder wall thickening with pelvic ureteral stones. The cohort included 7 male and 7 female patients, with an average age of (57.4±12.3) years, a BMI of (24.6±3.0) kg/m 2, and ASA classifications of grade Ⅱ in 9 cases and grade Ⅲ in 5 cases. All remote surgeries were successfully completed without the need for conversion to alternative surgical methods. Three renal cyst unroofing decompression procedures were performed, with an average console operation time of (32.0±6.6) minutes and intraoperative blood loss of (13.3±2.9) ml. Two partial nephrectomies were conducted, with console operation times of 140 and 160 minutes, intraoperative blood loss of 20 ml each, and warm ischemia times of 19 and 25 minutes, respectively. The preoperative estimated glomerular filtration rates (eGFR) for these cases were 115.2 and 107.3 ml/(min·1.73m 2), and postoperative eGFR were 102.0 and 95.5 ml/(min·1.73m 2), respectively. Four radical nephrectomies were completed, with an average console operation time of (50.2±13.7) minutes and intraoperative blood loss of (20.5±13.2) ml. Two adrenal tumor resections were performed, each with console operation times of 45 and 50 minutes and intraoperative blood loss of 10 ml. Additionally, one partial bladder resection was conducted, requiring a console operation time of 60 minutes and resulting in intraoperative blood loss of 10 ml. A single radical prostatectomy was carried out, with a console operation time of 180 minutes, intraoperative blood loss of 120 ml, and pre- and postoperative PSA levels of 11.7 ng/ml and 0.06 ng/ml, respectively. One ureteral-bladder reimplantation was also performed, with a console operation time of 240 minutes and intraoperative blood loss of 10 ml. The average total delay for the 14 remote surgeries ranged from 194 to 250 ms, while the average network transmission delay ranged from 13 to 55 ms. During the procedures, six instances of sudden large fluctuations in network transmission delay were observed, ranging from 333 to 654 ms. These fluctuations resolved automatically within approximately 10 seconds but resulted in temporary disruptions: 2 cases of master-slave console lock (reset process lasted around 5 seconds) and 1 case of switching to the local console for emergency hemostasis (lasting approximately 7 minutes). These interruptions did not significantly affect the surgical process. Postoperative complications in all patients were classified as Clavien-Dindo grade Ⅰ and were unrelated to the surgical procedures or equipment. No cancer was detected in the resection margins of malignant tumors. Follow-up evaluations at three months, including blood tests, liver and kidney function tests, and CT scans of the surgical sites, revealed no significant abnormalities or adverse events. Conclusions:5G communication technology, with an average total latency of less than 250 ms, enables domestic surgical robots to perform multi-procedural remote urological surgeries effectively. However, during procedures requiring extensive suturing for urological reconstruction or managing unplanned intraoperative bleeding, network latency fluctuations exceeding 333 ms can extend the operation time and may necessitate switching to local control for emergency hemostasis.

Objectives:To identify the core predictor variables for adolescent idiopathic scoliosis(AIS)pro-gression using machine learning algorithms and develop a risk prediction model.Methods:A cohort of 361 AIS patients initially diagnosed at the Second Hospital of Shanxi Medical University between January 2018 and June 2023 was enrolled and followed.Demographic data and imaging data of the patients were collected.The patients were stratified into progression(Cobb angle increased ≥6° in the primary curve)and non-pro-gression groups,and were randomly divided into training and test sets at an 8∶2 ratio.Predictor variables were selected using LASSO regression and random survival forest(RSF)algorithms.Three prediction models were developed:a RSF model,a survival support vector machine(SSVM)model,and an extreme gradient boosting(XGBoost)model.An optimal model was selected according to the concordance index(C-index)and integrated Brier score,and the discrimination,accuracy and clinical application value of the optimal model were assessed using receiver operating characteristic(ROC)and area under the curve(AUC),bootstrap-corrected C-index,calibration curves,integrated Brier score,and decision curve analysis(DC A)based on the training set.Results:The scoliosis progression rate of the 361 AIS patients was 41.27％.The predictors consistently identified with LASSO regression and RSF algorithm were initial Cobb angle,Risser sign,apical vertebral ro-tation,spinal growth rate,brace treatment or not,T1 tilt angle,and apical vertebra translation.The RSF model demonstrated superior performance with a C-index of 0.837(vs.0.790 for SSVM and 0.743 for XG-Boost)and the lowest integrated Brier score(0.084 vs.0.161 and 0.133).Time-dependent AUC values for the RSF model were 0.903(95％CI:0.829-0.977)at 6 months,0.870(95％CI:0.756-0.985)at 12 months,0.858(95％CI:0.742-0.973)at 18 months,and 0.862(95％CI:0.728-0.997)at 24 months.Bootstrap-corrected C-in-dex remained robust at 0.842(95％CI:0.749-0.917).Calibration curves showed close alignment between pre-dicted and observed outcomes,with an integrated Brier score of 0.084.DCA revealed clinical utility across threshold probabilities of 5％-20％(6-month),10％-80％(12-month),10％-70％(18-month),and 25％-85％(24-month).Conclusions:The RSF model incorporating initial Cobb angle,Risser sign,apical vertebra rotation,spinal growth rate,brace treatment or not,T1 tilt angle,and apical vertebra translation can effectively predict risk probability of scoliosis progression in future for AIS patients after initial diagnosis.
