"Dietary inquiry" is a core component of the diagnostic system in traditional Chinese medicine （TCM）， which can be divided into three aspects including appetite， eating capacity， and food preference. Abnormalities in appetite are mainly attributed to dysfunction of the mind and impaired regulatory mechanisms. Clinical inquiry should focus on hunger sensation and the willingness to eat voluntarily. Treatment should aim to soothe the liver， regulate the spleen， nourish and calm the mind. Abnormalities in eating capacity are related to disorders of qi movement and structural dysfunction， for which inquiry should focus on whether food descends smoothly and on postprandial reactions， and the corresponding treatment is descending qi， relieving fullness， and promoting bowel movement and digestion. Abnormalities in food preference arise from damage caused by the five flavors and imbalance of visceral qi， for which inquiry should focus on dietary preferences and whether eating brings comfort. It is important to distinguish between "stomach preference" and "oral preference"， and treatment should carefully differentiate flavor tendencies and correct imbalances through appropriate dietary flavors. By refining the content of dietary inquiry， this study explores how different dimensions of eating status reflect the holistic concept and syndrome differentiation-based treatment in TCM， providing a reference for the clinical diagnosis and treatment of spleen and stomach diseases and related disorders.

Objective: To analyze near work illuminance patterns on school days and weekends among third and fourth grade primary school students by using objectively monitored data, and to examine the associations of the duration of near work under different illuminance levels and time weighted average near work illuminance with screening myopia. Methods: From April to June 2024, students from grades 3 and 4 in two primary schools in Jiading District, Shanghai were selected as study subjects by using stratified random cluster sampling method. Continuous objective monitoring of near work behavior was conducted for 7 days while information from uncorrected visual acuity and refractive assessment was collected, and an online questionnaire survey was administered to their parents. Valid samples comprised 372 students on school days and 292 on weekends. Welch s t test was used to compare differences in the duration of near work under different illuminance levels between the screening myopia and non-myopia groups. Multivariable binary Logistic regression analysis was employed to assess the association between the duration of near work under different illuminance levels and screening myopia. Restricted cubic spline (RCS) model was used to explore the nonlinear association between time weighted average near work illuminance with 60 cm and screening myopia, and the critical thresholds identified by the RCS model were used to categorize illuminance levels for subsequent Logistic regression analyses. Results: Objective monitoring of near work behavior showed that the duration of near work in the low illuminance range of [0,125)lx was significantly longer on weekends[(4.12±2.21)h] than on school days [(2.42±1.22)h]. Multivariate Logistic regression analysis revealed that only on school days, each additional hour of near work duration in the [0,125)lx ( OR =1.56, 95% CI =1.23-1.98) and ≥1 000 lx range ( OR =5.92, 95% CI =1.48-23.73) were significantly associated with higher odds of screening myopia(both P < 0.05). RCS plot showed that on school days, time weighted average near work illuminance with 60 cm had a non-linear association with screening myopia ( P non-linear <0.05). On weekends, no significant association was found between near work illuminance indicators and screening myopia (all P >0.05). Conclusions Primary school students engage in near work for considerable durations in insufficient lighting environments on both school days and weekends. Increased duration of near work in overly dim or bright environments on school days may increase the risk of screening myopia.

Objective:To evaluate the clinical features of dystonia in patients with different types of atypical Parkinson syndrome (APS).Methods:A total of 104 patients with APS admitted in the Department of Neurology, Beijing Hospital from January 2015 to June 2023 were enrolled in the study, including 57 cases of multiple system atrophy (MSA), 38 cases of progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP) and 9 cases of corticobasal degeneration (CBD). Among 104 cases there were 63 males (60.6%), the mean age of patients was (62.3±8.9) years (54 to 73 years). The sex, age at onset, disease duration, first symptom, clinical features of dystonia and other neurological signs, response to levodopa therapy, numbers of Hoehn & Yahr scale≥3 after 3 years of disease, and MRI findings were documented in patients with different type APS.Results:The overall frequency of dystonia in this series was 45.2%(47/104), and 33.3% (19/57) for MSA group, 50.0% (19/38) for PSP group, 9/9 for CBD group. The types of dystonia were anterocollis, retrocollis, blepharospasm, oromandibular, foot/limb dystonia, Pisa syndrome and myoclonus. In all 47 cases presenting dydtonia, dystonia was not the first complaint and it did not respond to levodopa therapy.Conclusion:In this series of atypical Parkinson syndrome, dystonia is a common feature of the disease, while it is not the first symptom at disease onset, and usually does not respond to levodopa therapy.

Objective To establish an animal model of osteoporosis combined with liver cirrhosis and conduct preliminary investigation into the effect of liver cirrhosis on bone loss in mice and the underlying mechanisms.Methods The experimental animals were 25 6-week-old female C57BL/6 mice with a body weight of approximately 20-22 g.A comorbidity model of liver cirrhosis and osteoporosis was established in the mice by ovariectomy combined with carbon tetrachloride(CCl4)induction.The mice were randomly assigned to 4 groups(n=5 in each group),including a control group,a liver cirrhosis group,an osteoporosis group,and a cirrhosis and osteoporosis comorbidity group.Pathological changes in the liver were observed via HE staining,Sirius Red staining,and serum liver function indicators.Bone mass and morphological changes were assessed using micro-CT and HE staining.ELISA,Western blot,and immunohistochemistry were performed to assess the expression of insulin-like growth factor-1(IGF-1)in serum and liver tissues.An additional IGF-1 intervention group was established to investigate the potential role of IGF-1 in the comorbidity of liver cirrhosis and osteoporosis,and changes in bone mass and morphology were analyzed via micro-CT and HE staining.Results Compared with the control and osteoporosis groups,the liver cirrhosis and cirrhosis-osteoporosis comorbidity groups exhibited significant inflammatory cell infiltration and collagen fiber deposition in liver tissues,along with markedly increased serum levels of alanine aminotransferase(ALT),aspartate aminotransferase(AST),and total bilirubin(TBIL)(P＜0.05).According to the Micro-CT and HE staining results,the cirrhosis-osteoporosis comorbidity group showed reduced bone mass and decreased trabecular numbers in the distal femur compared to those in the osteoporosis group,with the differences being statistically significant(P＜0.05).ELISA,Western blot,and immunohistochemistry demonstrated significantly reduced expression of IGF-1 in the liver and serum of the cirrhosis-osteoporosis comorbidity group(P＜0.05).Notably,exogenous IGF-1 treatment restored bone mass in mice with liver cirrhosis combined with osteoporosis(P＜0.05).Conclusion Through ovariectomy combined with CCl4 induction,a mouse model of liver cirrhosis combined with osteoporosis was successfully established.IGF-1 may serve as a potential molecular mechanism and therapeutic target mediating the liver cirrhosis-osteoporosis comorbidity.

Chronic hepatitis B(CHB)is the main cause of hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC).Early prediction and diagnosis of HCC in CHB patients can further reduce the onset risk of HCC and improve patient prognosis.Scholars at home and abroad have proposed a number of HCC risk prediction models for CHB patients,and these models have achieved new development and opti-mization in the era of antiviral therapy.Due to differences in research backgrounds,these models vary in the use of antiviral drugs,included variables(such as host factors,viral activity,cirrhosis status,etc.)and application scenarios.At the same time,the application of artificial intelligence and liquid biopsy technology in risk prediction models has become a new research highlight.This paper aims to compare the HCC risk prediction models reported so far for CHB patients,clarify the characteristics of each model,explore appropriate HCC risk prediction methods,and provide reference for the risk prediction of hepatitis B virus related HCC.

Objective:To evaluate the efficacy and safety of obinutuzumab combined with glucocorticoid-based therapy in patients with relapsed immune thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (iTTP).Methods:This study analyzed the efficacy and adverse reactions of four patients with relapsed iTTP who were treated with a combination of obinutuzumab and glucocorticoids to assess the effectiveness and safety of the treatment.Results:All four patients had a history of multiple relapses and had previously undergone treatment with rituximab and bortezomib. Three patients exhibited additional autoantibodies. Following the combined therapy, all patients achieved clinical remission, with ADAMTS13 activity returning to normal levels and inhibitors testing negative. During a median follow-up period of 11 months (range: 3–17 months), all patients maintained sustained remission. No severe adverse events were reported during treatment or follow-up.Conclusion:The combination of obinutuzumab and glucocorticoid-based therapy is effective and safe for treating relapsed iTTP.

Objective:To apply the Timed Up and Go Test(TUGT)to investigate the correlation between motor function, emotional state, cognitive function, and sleep quality among elderly individuals in the Chinese community.Methods:A cross-sectional study was conducted, involving 739 subjects aged 60 to 90 years, who were randomly recruited from December 2021 to August 2023 across Beijing, Tianjin, Zhejiang, Guangdong, and Hainan Provinces in China.Basic demographic information was collected, and the TUGT was utilized to assess motor function.Based on the TUGT time(t), the subjects were divided into three groups: normal motor function group, mild motor abnormality group, and significant motor abnormality group.Cognitive function was evaluated using the Chinese Revised Mini-Mental State Examination(MMSE), while the Patient Health Questionnaire Depression Scale(PHQ-9)was employed to measure the degree of depression.Additionally, the Epworth Sleepiness Scale(ESS)was used to assess excessive daytime sleepiness.The correlation between subjects' motor function and their cognitive abilities, mood, and sleep was subsequently analyzed.Results:Systolic blood pressure, heart rate, PHQ-9, MMSE, and ESS scores were identified as significant factors influencing TUGT time.Specifically, TUGT time was positively correlated with PHQ-9 and ESS scores, while exhibiting negative correlations with systolic blood pressure, heart rate, and MMSE scores.Additionally, TUGT time was negatively correlated with the MMSE subcomponents of orientation, immediate memory, and verbal ability.All observed differences were statistically significant(all P<0.05).Logistic regression analysis indicated that an increase in the PHQ-9 score was associated with an odds ratio( OR)of 1.099(95% CI: 1.045-1.155, P<0.001)(mild motor abnormality group)and 1.150(95% CI: 1.066-1.242, P<0.001)(Significant motor abnormality group).Additionally, a reduction in the MMSE score was observed, with an OR of 0.939(95% CI: 0.886-0.995, P<0.001)(mild motor abnormality group)and 0.793(95% CI: 0.729-0.862, P<0.001)(Significant motor abnormality group).Furthermore, an increase in the ESS score was noted, with ORs of 1.139(95% CI: 1.094-1.186, P<0.001)(mild motor abnormality group)and 1.203(95% CI: 1.132-1.279, P<0.001)(Significant motor abnormality group).These findings suggest that these variables are independently related to decreased motor function. Conclusions:Depression, cognitive impairment, and excessive daytime sleepiness are independent risk factors for motor dysfunction among elderly individuals in community settings.The Timed Up and Go Test TUGT can be utilized for the early screening of motor function decline in this population.
