Objective To analyze the clinical and therapeutic characteristics of Epstein-Barr virus (EBV)-negative posttransplant lymphoproliferative disease (PTLD) with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) in the context of specific cases and literature. Methods A case of EBV-negative DLBCL (GCB type) after kidney transplantation is reported. The patient was a 45-year-old male who underwent living-related kidney transplantation in 2016 and has been receiving triple immunosuppressive therapy with tacrolimus, mycophenolate mofetil and methylprednisolone since then. In 2024, the patient presented with intermittent fever, night sweats and gastrointestinal symptoms. The diagnosis was confirmed by endoscopic pathology, immunohistochemical staining and positron emission tomography/computed tomography. The R-CDOP regimen (rituximab + cyclophosphamide + liposomal doxorubicin + vincristine + dexamethasone) was used for treatment. Results The patient was diagnosed with EBV-negative DLBCL (GCB type, Ann Arbor stage Ⅳ B). After 4 cycles of R-CDOP chemotherapy, the efficacy assessment was partial remission, and the transplant kidney function remained stable. Conclusions For EBV-negative PTLD after kidney transplantation, it is necessary to break through the "virus-dependent" diagnostic thinking. In clinical practice, the focus should be on protecting the transplant kidney, and individualized treatment plans should be developed for patients.

To evaluate the application value of the Peyton four-step teaching method in the standardized training of intestinal ultrasound and compare it with traditional teaching methods, so as to provide an optimized approach for clinical ultrasound training. Participants from the Department of Ultrasound at Peking Union Medical College Hospital between September 2024 and March 2025 were randomly assigned to either the traditional group or Peyton group. The traditional group followed the conventional "lecture- demonstration-practice" model, while the Peyton group implemented the standardized "demonstration-deconstruction-comprehension-execution" four-step approach. All training focused on standard intestinal ultrasound scanning techniques. After the training, the operational skills were independently evaluated by the instructors. To verify the reproducibility of the teaching method, the participants in traditional teaching group received additional Peyton method training after the initial assessment and underwent a second evaluation. A total of 18 participants were included in this study, with 9 in the traditional teaching group and 9 in the Peyton teaching group. Participants in the Peyton group demonstrated significantly higher scores than those in the traditional group at every anatomical site assessed (all The Peyton four-step method is significantly more effective than traditional teaching in improving residents' intestinal ultrasound skills, demonstrating its suitability as the preferred approach for standardized training programs.

OBJECTIVE To systematically evaluate the influential factors for all-cause mortality in patients with carbapenem-resistant Gram-negative bacteria (CR-GNB) treated with polymyxin B. METHODS PubMed, Embase, the Cochrane Library, Web of Science, Wanfang Data, VIP, CBM and CNKI were searched to collect clinical studies on all-cause death within 30 days or 28 days after treatment with polymyxin B in patients with CR-GNB infection from database establishment to July 2025. After literature screening, data extraction and evaluation of literature quality, meta-analysis was performed using RevMan 5.4 software. RESULTS A total of 12 studies were included, involving 1 326 patients, among whom 529 patients died, with a mortality rate of 39.89%. Meta-analysis results showed that combined with cardiovascular disease [OR=2.06, 95%CI (1.37, 3.09), P =0.005 ] , increased Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (SOFA) score [OR=1.20, 95%CI (1.07, 1.35), P =0.003 ] , mechanical ventilation [OR=2.35, 95%CI (1.65, 3.34), P <0.001 ] , continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) [OR=2.58, 95%CI (1.67, 3.97), P <0.001 ] , bloodstream infection [OR=3.24, 95%CI (2.19, 4.78), P <0.001 ] , multiple-site infection [OR=1.51, 95%CI (1.03, 2.20), P =0.03 ] , septic shock [OR=3.19, 95%CI (1.94, 5.24), P <0.001 ] , use of vasoactive drugs [OR=2.90, 95%CI (1.97, 4.27), P <0.001 ] , and the occurrence of acute kidney injury (AKI) [OR=2.17, 95%CI (1.41, 3.36), P <0.001 ] were risk factors for all-cause mortality in patients with CR-GNB infection treated with polymyxin B. Conversely, an extended duration of polymy xin B treatment [OR=0.92, 95%CI (0.86, 0.99), P =0.03 ] and early administration after CR-GNB infection [OR=0.47, 95%CI (0.25, 0.85), P =0.01 ] were protective factors. CONCLUSIONS Patients with cardiovascular disease, receiving mechanical ventilation or CRRT, having bloodstream infection, multiple-site infection or septic shock, combining with vasoactive drugs, with AKI and increased SOFA scores have a higher risk of all-cause mortality. Conversely, extending the duration of polymyxin B treatment (beyond 7 days) and early administration within 48 hours after confirmed CR-GNB infection can significantly reduce the risk of all-cause mortality.

Objective To explore the feasibility of magnetic compression technique (MCR) in the treatment of severe single mid-ureteral stricture in a rabbit model. Methods After 10 female New Zealand rabbits were selected, the distal end of the right ureter was ligated with silk thread. Two weeks after the operation, when the right ureter was dilated, the mid-ureter was ligated again with silk thread to create a severe single mid-ureteral stricture animal model. Longitudinal incisions were made at the upper and lower ends of the ligation site, and cylindrical NdFeB magnets with central holes (sub-magnets and main magnets) were placed to anastomose and recanalize the mid-ureteral stricture. The magnets were adjusted to the appropriate position to automatically align and attract each other. The longitudinal incision sites of the ureter were sutured with 6-0 Prolene thread, and the abdominal cavity was closed layer by layer. The operation time was recorded. X-ray films were taken every two days to confirm the position of the magnets and record the time of magnet detachment. Three weeks after the operation, the anastomotic specimens were obtained, and the formation of the anastomosis was evaluated with gross observation and histological staining. Results Two weeks after ligation, all experimental rabbits showed obvious dilation of the right ureter. The mid-ureteral ligation and placement of the male and female magnets were successfully completed in all 10 experimental rabbits, with an operation time of (24.00±5.15)minutes. The male and female magnets attracted each other well. X-ray examination showed that the magnets detached and entered the distal ureter (14.0±1.9) days after magnetic compression. The recanalization of the severe single mid-ureteral stricture was successfully achieved. The gross specimens and histological examination of the anastomosis showed that the anastomosis remained patent and the mucosal healing was good. All experimental rabbits survived well after the operation without serious complications. Conclusion MCT provides a new idea and novel method for the treatment of mid-ureteral stricture. This study confirmed the feasibility of this technique in treating severe single mid-ureteral stricture in a rabbit model. The operation is relatively simple and has potential for clinical application.

Abstract
To clarify the service targets, service contents, and safeguard mechanisms of the basic public service program for student vision health management, the study grounded in the current status of child and adolescent myopia prevention and control in China and integrated with the practical experience and innovative practices of Wuhan National Demonstration Area for Student Vision Health Management, takes education as the main thread and schools as the base, consolidating resources from multiple stakeholders including education administrative departments, schools, families, and professional technical service institutions. Centering on four core components—vision health education, monitoring and record keeping, risk prevention and control, and dynamic management, the study constructs a multi tiered basic public service system for vision health management of primary and secondary school students. It further proposes the use of an intelligent management platform and a "three tier color coded early warning" mechanism (red, yellow, blue) to prevent and control student myopia at the source, providing schools with replicable and operable implementation pathways to enhance the level of student vision health management.

Objective:To analyze the epidemiological and clinical characteristics of pertussis in children and the antimicrobial resistance pattern of Bordetella pertussis isolates in Anhui province in 2024. Methods:Prospective observational study. The demographic information of 4 233 cases of pertussis confirmed by nucleic acid testing in Anhui Provincial Children′s Hospital in 2024 and the clinical data of hospitalized cases were collected. The annual epidemic trend of pertussis in children, the clinical characteristics of hospitalized cases, and the vaccination status were analyzed. Bordetella pertussis isolates were recovered from nasopharyngeal swabs obtained from hospitalized children and their family caregivers during the outbreak period and antimicrobial susceptibility was tested. Results:Among the 4 233 children, 2 330 were male and 1 903 were female. A total of 4 059 cases (95.9%) occurred from March to September, with the peak of the disease from April to July (3 364 cases (79.5%)).There were 4 075 cases (96.3%) aged 9 years and under, among which 718 cases (17.0%) were under 1 year old and 2 494 cases (58.9%) were aged 4 to 7 years. During the outbreak period, there were a total of 301 hospitalized children (7.1%), with an average age of 4.4 (2.8, 16.5) months. Among them, 61 cases (20.3%) received the full course of vaccination (4 doses), 64 cases (21.3%) received partial doses of the vaccine, and 176 cases (58.5%) were unvaccinated. Among the unvaccinated children, 79.6% (172/216) were under 1 year old, 8.7% (2/23) were between 1 and 3 years old, and 3.2% (2/62) were 3 years old or older. None of the 20 cases (6.6%) of severe pertussis received pertussis vaccine.Among the 301 hospitalized children, 298 cases (99.0%) presented with typical paroxysmal spasmodic cough, 94 cases (31.2%) had vomiting after coughing, 82 cases (27.2%) had whooping sounds, and 54 cases (17.9%) had cyanotic attacks. There were 228 cases (75.7%) complicated with pneumonia and 5 cases (1.7%) with pertussis encephalopathy. The infection rate among the accompanying family members who underwent screening was 77.1% (371/481). Based on the minimum inhibitory concentration testing of 186 Bordetella pertussis isolates, the minimum inhibitory concentration 90 of azithromycin and trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole were >256.000 and 0.050 mg/L, respectively. Conclusions:The peak of pertussis cases in Anhui region in 2024 occurred from April to July. Children aged ≤9 years were the major affected population. Infants and preschool children were most susceptible to pertussis. The intrafamily transmission rate of pertussis is high. Empirical use of macrolides for the treatment of pertussis is not recommended. Trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole can be used as the preferred antibiotic for pertussis in children aged 2 months and above.

Objective:To analyze the characteristics of anonymous online dating and related factors of not being tested for HIV among men who have sex with men and to provide the basis for developing targeted HIV prevention strategies and intervention measures.Methods:Using a cross-sectional study design, respondents were recruited with the assistance of MSM social organizations from April to July 2023 in eight cities in Shandong Province. Snowball sampling, activity venues, and networks were employed, targeting a sample size of 400 people per city. A face-to-face questionnaire survey collected data on sociodemographic characteristics, drug use, sexual intercourse, and online informed dating. Blood samples were also collected for HIV and syphilis antibody testing.Results:In the past six months, 2 787 MSM sought homosexual partners through the Internet, and 78.26% (2 181/2 787) chose to make anonymous online dating. Before having homosexual sex with online sexual partners, 10.41% (290/2 787) of them did not ask each other about HIV infection status and 33.37% (930/2 787) of them not being tested for HIV. There were statistically significant differences in the distribution of age, marital status, household registration, education level, sexual orientation, ways to find male sexual partners, not asking online sexual partners about their HIV status before sexual intercourse, no mutual HIV testing with online sexual partners before sexual intercourse, and syphilis antibody between anonymous and non-anonymous online dating persons (all P<0.05). The results of multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that <25 years old (a OR=1.43, 95% CI: 1.15-1.77) and ≥35 years old age group (a OR=1.61, 95% CI: 1.29-2.01), people with no AIDS knowledge (a OR=2.37, 95% CI: 1.25-4.49), drug users (a OR=1.38, 95% CI: 1.17-1.63), online dating anonymous (a OR=2.19, 95% CI: 1.76-2.73), HIV antibody positive (a OR=3.61, 95% CI: 2.22-5.88) and no intervention services in the last 1 year (a OR=1.58, 95% CI: 1.05-2.38) were the related factors of MSM not being tested for HIV before having sexual intercourse through online dating. Conclusions:The phenomenon of anonymous online dating was common among MSM in Shandong Province, and the proportion of MSM not being tested for HIV before having sexual intercourse through anonymous online dating was relatively high. It is necessary to strengthen health publicity and promote informed dating in MSM.

The menopausal age is one of the important menopausal factors, and women of different menopausal ages have different risks of diabetes. This study reviewed the evidence from prospective studies on the association between the age at natural menopause and diabetes risk, both domestically and internationally, and presented its research design and main findings. Advanced menopause, especially premature and early menopause, will increase the risk of diabetes in postmenopausal women. The research on the influence of delayed menopause on the incidence of diabetes is still insufficient. Many factors may modify the association between menopausal age and the risk of diabetes.
