Objective:
To investigate the attention cognitive function and symptom correlations of school aged children with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD)using event related potential (ERP) technology, so as to provide references for the early diagnosis of children with ADHD.
Methods:
A total of 52 school aged children diagnosed with ADHD at the outpatient department of the Third Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from September 2022 to September 2024 and 50 age /sex matched healthy controls were selected. The ERP experiment adopted the auditory Oddball task to conduct comparative analyses of the amplitude and latency of the mismatch negative(MMN) at the Fz, Cz, and Pz points of the scalp electrode and the P3a component respectively. The symptom assessment scales adopted the Swanson,Nolan,and Pelham-Ⅳ Rating Scale (SNAP-Ⅳ) and the Parent Symptom Questionnaire (PSQ), which were filled out by the parents. Spearman correlation analysis was used to analyze the correlation between ERP components and symptoms in schoolaged children with ADHD.
Results:
The latency of MMN components in the healthy control group on the Fz lead was (188.30±2.06)ms, and the amplitude was (-15.54±1.35)μV; the latency of the P3a component on the Pz lead was (312.82±7.80)ms, and the amplitude was (3.80±0.18)μV. The latency of MMN components in the ADHD group on the Fz lead was (188.94±1.39)ms, and the amplitude was (-14.78±1.40)μV; the latency of the P3a component on the Pz lead was (317.21±5.65)ms, and the amplitude was (3.70±0.13)μV. Compared with normal children, the MMN of children with ADHD had smaller amplitudes in the Fz and Cz leads, and the P3a had greater latency and smaller amplitudes in the Cz and Pz leads ( t =2.79,2.20;-2.04,-3.25;2.35,3.21, P <0.05). Correlation analysis showed that the latency of MMN in children with ADHD was positively correlated with the inattention score in the SNAP-Ⅳ( r =0.22), and the amplitude of MMN was negatively correlated with the inattention score in the SNAP-Ⅳ and the learning problem score in PSQ ( r = -0.26 , -0.34)( P <0.05). The latency of P3a was positively correlated with the scores of inattention in the SNAP-Ⅳ and the score of learning problems in the PSQ ( r =0.26 ,0.24); the amplitude of P3a was negatively correlated with the scores of attention deficit and hyperactivity/impulsivity in the SNAP-Ⅳ and the scores of learning problems and impulsivity/hyperactivity in the PSQ( r = -0.26 , -0.22, -0.25,-0.32)( P <0.05).
Conclusions
School aged ADHD children exhibit abnormal MMN/P3a components, indicating attention related cognitive dysfunction. Symptoms such as inattention, learning problems and hyperactivity/impulsivity in children with ADHD are related to abnormal components of MMN and P3a.

Objective:To investigate the application value of robotic-assisted surgery for pancreatic cancer after neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAT).Methods:The retrospective and descrip-tive study was conducted. The clinicopathological data of 10 pancreatic cancer patients who underwent robotic-assisted surgery after NAT at The First Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University from November 2021 to January 2025 were collected. There were 7 male and 3 female, aged (62±7)years. Observation indicators: (1) NAT conditions; (2) intraoperative conditions; (3) postoperative condi-tions; (4) follow-up. Measurement data with normal distribution were represented as Mean± SD, and measurement data with skewed distribution were represented as M(range). Count data were described as absolute numbers. The Kaplan-Meier method was used to calculate survival time. Results:(1) NAT conditions. Of the 10 patients, 4 cases had tumor surrounding the portal vein or superior mesenteric vein more than 180° (no invasion of superior mesenteric artery), 3 cases had concomitant hepatic oligometastasis, and 3 cases had tumor invasion of adjacent organ (2 cases with tumor invasion of left kidney, 1 case with tumor invasion of duodenum). Nine of the 10 patients received chemotherapy of gemcitabine+albumin-paclitaxel, and the other 1 patient received chemo-therapy of fluorouracil + irinotecan + oxaliplatin. After treatment, 3 patients were evaluated as partial remission and 7 patients were evaluated as stable disease. (2) Intraoperative conditions. Of the 10 patients, 5 cases received robotic-assisted pancreatoduodenectomy and 5 cases received robotic-assisted radical antegrade modular pancreatosplenectomy, with no case converted to open surgery. There were 3 cases receiving combined vascular resection and reconstruction, including 2 cases with portal vein resection plus side wall repairing and 1 case with superior mesenteric vein resection plus end to end anastomosis. There were 2 cases receiving combined other organ resection intra-operatively, including 1 case with local hepatectomy and 1 case with left nephrectomy. The operation time of 10 patients was 465(range, 195?565)minutes, volume of intraoperative blood loss was 70(range, 20?350)mL. One case with preoperative anemia required red blood cell transfusion during the operation, while the other cases did not receive any transfusion during the operation. All 10 patients achieved R 0 resection and the number of lymph node dissected was 12±8. Three patients who underwent combined vascular resection and reconstruction had negative margin of the portal vein or superior mesenteric vein. (3) Postoperative conditions. Duration of postoperative hospital stay of 10 patients was (15±8)days, and 1 case developed major complications in grade Ⅲa of Clavein-Dindo classfication. Of the 10 patients, 1 case developed grade B pancreatic fistula, 1 case experienced delayed gastric emptying, and no case had postoperative biliary fistula, chyle leakage, abdominal or anastomotic bleeding, no case underwent reoperation, no case died within postoperative 30 days. (4) Follow-up. All 10 patients were followed up after surgery for 10.0(range, 2.7?40.4)months. All 10 patients underwent postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy, and the time from surgery to the start of adjuvant chemotherapy was (40±12)days. The median overall survival time of 10 patients was 30.4 months, and the median recurrence-free survival time was 10.9 months. Conclusion:Robotic-assisted surgery can be used for pancreatic cancer after neoadjuvant chemotherapy.

Inspection,the foremost of the four diagnostic methods in traditional Chinese medicine(TCM),refers to a clinical approach involving observation of the body's overall condition and specific regions to assess pathological conditions.This method holds an important position in the clinical diagnostic system of TCM.However,traditional inspection is limited by the subjectivity of physician experience and technological means,often resulting in inconsistent and subjective outcomes.With the advancement of science and technology,the generalized inspection diagnosis technology of smart TCM has emerged.This innovative approach integrates classical TCM diagnostic theories with digital-intelligent technologies,enabling accurate collection and intelligent analysis of physiological indicators related to spirit,complexion,physique,and postures.The development of a generalized inspection diagnosis system of smart TCM based on this technology is crucial for promoting the objectivity,precision,and intelligence of TCM diagnosis and treatment.This article proposes that the core feature of the generalized inspection diagnosis system of smart TCM is the analytical logic based on the classic theory of TCM.The framework design of the system can be divided into five modules:data acquisition,data processing,knowledge graph and reasoning,report generation,and report analysis.The limitations and future development trends in data annotation standardization,integration of TCM theory and algorithms are also discussed.The aim is to provide a new paradigm for precise diagnosis in TCM,and advance research and practical implementation of smart TCM generalized inspection.

Objective To explore the identification method,pathogenesis,clinical characteristics and individualized pharmacotherapy of asymptomatic hyperuricemia after renal transplantation.Methods The pharmacist was on duty at the organ transplant outpatient clinic.During this time,they analyzed and sorted out the medications,identified and differentiated a case of asymptomatic hyperuricemia related to spironolactone in a patient who had undergone a renal transplant,and provided comprehensive care throughout the entire process.Results The asymptomatic hyperuricemia in this patient might be associated with spironolactone,and the adverse reactions of the patient were alleviated by pharmacists through optimizing clinical treatment.Up to now,no hyperuricemia occurred.Conclusions Pharmacists are required to collaborate closely with clinicians to establish medication profiles for patients under long-term follow-up and to closely monitor and evaluate drug-related adverse reactions.Additionally,they should assess the renal function and immune status of transplant recipients promptly and formulate individualized treatment plans in order to enhance the long-term survival of both the transplanted kidneys and the recipients.
7.Cross-sectional analysis and prospective prediction of pancreatic cancer disease burden based on the GBD database
Chinese Journal of General Surgery 2025;34(3):462-474
Background and Aims:Pancreatic cancer is a highly aggressive malignancy that imposes a significant disease burden both in China and globally.It not only substantially increases healthcare expenditures but also profoundly influences health policy decisions.This study aims to systematically assess the disease burden of pancreatic cancer in China and worldwide over the past 30 years and to analyze future trends using a prospective predictive model,providing a scientific basis for the development of effective prevention and control strategies.Methods:Data on incidence,prevalence,mortality,and disability-adjusted life years(DALY)of pancreatic cancer,stratified by sex and standardized for age,were extracted from the Global Burden of Disease(GBD)database for the period 1990-2021.The autoregressive integrated moving average(ARIMA)model was used to predict the disease burden trends of pancreatic cancer for the next 15 years.Results:The results showed that from 1990 to 2021,the incidence,prevalence,mortality,and DALY rates of pancreatic cancer exhibited an increasing trend in both China and worldwide.Males had significantly higher incidence and mortality rates than females,with a faster growth rate.The highest incidence and mortality rates were observed in economically developed regions such as North America and Europe,while lower rates were noted in less developed regions such as Africa and South Asia.However,with economic development and lifestyle changes,the pancreatic cancer burden in these low-incidence regions is also gradually increasing.Over time,the growth rate of pancreatic cancer incidence and mortality in China has surpassed the global average,and with an aging population,the disease burden is expected to rise further in the future.Conclusion:There are significant variations in the pancreatic cancer burden across genders and regions.Strengthening health education and early screening for high-risk populations,optimizing personalized treatment strategies,and increasing investment in basic research on pancreatic cancer are essential to mitigating the growing disease burden.This study provides crucial scientific evidence for the formulation of pancreatic cancer prevention and control strategies,contributing to improved patient outcomes and reduced socioeconomic burden.

Objective The pathophysiological process of acute high-altitude hypoxia-induced lung injury affects protein expression levels,which are mainly evaluated by Western blot.No systematic study has investigated changes in internal control proteins as calibration loading amounts.Methods Lung injury at an altitude of 6000 m was induced in a low-pressure,low-oxygen chamber for 8,24,and 72 h using C57BL/6J mice.Establishment of the model was confirmed by hematoxylin and eosin staining.Expression levels of various internal control proteins,including vinculin,α-tubulin,eukaryotic translation initiation factor 5(EIF5),β-actin,and glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate dehydrogenase(GAPDH)were detected by Western blot,and total protein expression was detected by Coomassie blue staining.Furthermore,the lung injury model in vitro was establised by using,Bronchial epithelial cell(BZAS-2B)andhunman umbilical vein endothelial cells(HUVECS)confirmed by TUNEL staining.Expression levels of internal control proteins were detected by Western blot,and total protein expression was detected by Coomassie Blue staining.Results Acute 8,24,and 72 h hypoxic models were successfully established in lung tissue,demonstrating consistent total protein expression and stable levels of the internal reference proteins vinculin,α-tubulin,EIF5,andβ-actin.GAPDH expression was elevated in the HH8 h,HH24 h,and HH72 h groups compared with the normoxia(Nor)group,but only the increase at HH72 h groups was significant.Similarly,8,24,and 48 h hypoxic models were successfully established in BEAS-2B cells and HUVECs,with consistent total protein expression.In BEAS-2B cells,expression levels of the internal reference proteins β-actin and GAPDH were consistent with the normoxic control(NC)group,while vinculin,α-tubulin,and EIF5 expression levels were significantly reduced under hypoxic conditions for up to 24 h.In HUVECs,vinculin and α-tubulin expression levels were also consistent with the NC group,while EIF5,β-actin,and GAPDH expression levels were significantly reduced at 8 h and increased at 48 h.Conclusions Acute hypoxia induces lung tissue injury,and protein expression levels of the internal reference proteins vinculin,α-tubulin,EIF5,and β-actin are stable,making them suitable internal references for Western blot.Additionally,Western blot detected differential expression levels of the internal reference proteins vinculin,α-tubulin,EIF5,β-actin,and GAPDH in BEAS-2B cells and HUVECs,as the most important in vitro lung tissue models of hypoxia-induced injury.
