Objective: To identify research priorities on physical and mental comorbidity among children and adolescents in Zhejiang Province, so as to provide a theoretical base for improving their physical and mental health. Methods: In May 2025, 77 experts in the fields of health and education from 11 cities in Zhejiang Province were selected by convenient sampling method to participate in the first round of expert consultation. In June, 2025, snowball sampling was used to expand to 194 experts for the second round of consultation, and it was convenient to select 21 students from primary schools to high schools in Zhejiang Province and 29 parents to empower the evaluation criteria. It applied the Child Health and Nutrition Research Initiative (CHNRI) method in a structured process, which encompassed the definition of the research field, generation of research ideas, scoring, and quantitative ranking of priorities. Research ideas were evaluated against 6 predefined criteria: effectiveness, safety, answerability, feasibility, sustainability, and scientific significance. Results: After 2 rounds of structured consultations, 81 research ideas on physical and mental comorbidity among children and adolescents were established and classified into 7 subthemes: epidemiological characteristics and influencing factors, optimization of primary service systems and policies, comprehensive intervention strategies for physical and mental comorbidity, biological mechanisms and clinical research, the impact of education and environment on physical and mental health, special populations and social support, and digital and technology driven disease prevention and intervention. The top 10 research priorities primarily centered on the subdomain of "epidemiological characteristics and influencing factors" (5 items). The top 3 research priorities were "the association between outdoor activity duration and the incidence of common diseases (including mental disorders) among children and adolescents" "the impact of outdoor activity duration on the physical and mental health of adolescents" "comprehensive intervention strategies for myopia, obesity, and their comorbidities among children and adolescents". Conclusion The framework of priority issues in the field of psychosomatic comorbidity of children and adolescents in Zhejiang Province based on CHNRI method provides a reference for optimizing the allocation of provincial research resources.

ObjectiveTo explore the vascular endothelial injury in male mice caused by exposure to polystyrene microplastics （PS-MPs） and the intervention effect of luteolin on vascular remodeling. Additionally， to investigate the mechanism through the oxidative system and metabolomics. MethodsThirty-two C57BL/6 mice （6-8 weeks old） were randomly divided into the saline group （saline group）， the 0.1 mg/kg PS-MPs exposure group （0.1PS-MPs group）， the 1 mg/kg PS-MPs exposure group （1PS-MPs group）， and the 1 mg/kg PS-MPs + luteolin treatment group （1PS-MPs + Lut group）， with 8 mice in each group. After 8 weeks of intervention， the body weight， blood pressure， aortic organ coefficient， and aortic histopathological changes of mice in each group were detected； the total cholesterol （TC）， triglyceride （TG）， and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol （HDL-C） lipid metabolism-related indicators in the aorta of mice were detected； the reactive oxygen species （ROS）， glutathione （GSH）， and malondialdehyde （MDA） oxidative stress-related indicators were detected； the endothelin （ET-1）， nitric oxide （NO）， vascular endothelial growth factor A （VEGF-A）， vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 （VCAM-1/CD106）， and intercellular adhesion molecule-1 （ICAM-1/CD54） endothelial function-related indicators and serum metabolomics were detected. ResultsCompared to the saline group， exposure to PS-MPs resulted in pathological thickening of the mouse aorta， increased aortic organ coefficient， and elevated blood pressure. Lipid metabolism-related indicators， including TC and TG， were elevated， while HDL-C was reduced， indicating lipid metabolism disorder in mice. Oxidative stress markers such as ROS and MDA increased， whereas GSH decreased， demonstrating oxidative damage. Vascular endothelial inflammation and injury markers， including ET-1， VEGF-A， VCAM-1， and ICAM-1， were upregulated， while the vasodilatory substance NO was downregulated， confirming endothelial injury. Furthermore， serum metabolomics results revealed that PS-MPs exposure induced endothelial damage by disrupting metabolic pathways such as the citrate cycle. Compared to the PS-MPs group， luteolin significantly reversed these effects， attenuating oxidative stress and lipid metabolism disorders， and effectively repairing endothelial injury. ConclusionPS-MPs induce vascular toxicity through oxidative stress and lipid metabolism. Luteolin effectively alleviates endothelial damage and vascular remodeling.

Human keratinocyte growth factor-1 (hKGF-1), a member of the fibroblast growth factor (FGF) family, plays crucial roles in organ development, cell proliferation, wound healing, and tissue repair, representing one of the most effective and specific growth factors for skin repair. However, obtaining recombinant hKGF-1 remains challenging due to its universally low expression efficiency in vitro. This study employs the Bombyx mori baculovirus expression system to establish a technological platform that utilizes the economically important insect Bombyx mori as a bioreactor for high-efficiency and low-cost expression and production of recombinant human keratinocyte growth factor 1 (hKGF-1) protein, ultimately achieving high-level expression of hKGF-1 in Bombyx mori ovary cell line (BmN). In this study, we optimized the hKGF-1 sequence based on the codon preference of baculovirus. By fusing hKGF-1 with polyhedrin (highly expressed in this system) and adding extra promoters and enhancers, we significantly improved the expreesion level of hKGF-1 in Bombyx mori cells. The results demonstrated that the aforementioned strategies significantly enhanced the expression level of hKGF-1 in Bombyx mori cells. SDS-PAGE and Western blotting results revealed that the highest hKGF-1 expression (accounting for 8.7% of total cellular protein) was achieved when the Polh promoter was combined in tandem with the P6.9 promoter and hKGF-1 was fused with a 15-residue polyhedrin fragment for co-expression. The optimal harvest time was determined to be 120 h post transfection. This study achieved the efficient expression of hKGF-1 in Bombyx mori cells, establishing an ideal technological platform for the industrial utilization of recombinant hKGF-1. The developed methodology not only provides valuable technical references for the production of other growth factors and complex proteins, but also demonstrates significant implications for employing silkworms as bioreactors for recombinant human protein expression.

Objective To investigate the changes of diameter of the main trunk of the extracranial segment of the facial nerve,local hemodynamics and facial muscle thickness in patients with peripheral facial palsy(PFP)at acute stage by high frequency ultrasound(HFUS).Methods Sixty patients with acute PFP were enrolled as the PFP group,and 30 healthy people were selected as the control group.The following facial param-eters were scanned and recorded using HFUS:diameter of the main trunk of the extracranial segment of the facial nerve(FN-d),facial artery diameter(FA-d),facial artery systolic velocity(FA-Vs),facial artery diastolic velocity(FA-Vd),facial artery resistance index(FA-RI),frontalis muscle thickness(FM-t),depressor anguli oris muscle thickness(DAO-t),and depressor labii inferioris muscle thickness(DLI-t).The feasibility of facial param-eters in the diagnosis of acute-phase peripheral facial palsy(PFP)was evaluated,with intra-group and inter-group variability comparisons performed.Pearson correlation analysis was conducted to evaluate the relationship between acute-phase facial parameters and House-Brackmann(H-B)scale scores in PFP patients.Results(1)The H-B score of the PFP group was significantly lower than that of the control group,and the difference was statistically significant(P＜0.05).(2)The reliability of repeated measurements of facial parameters by different testers is good(ICC＞0.75).(3)The FN-d and FA-RI values on the affected side of PFP group were higher than those on the healthy side and control group,and FA-Vs,FA-Vd,DAO-t and DLI-t values were lower than those on the healthy side and control group,with statistical significance(P＜0.05).(4)The FN-d and FA-RI values of the affected side in the PFP group were negatively correlated with the H-S scale score(r=-0.847,P＜0.05;r=-0.863,P＜0.05);FA Vs,FA Vd,DAO-t,DLI-t are positively correlated with H-S scale scores(r=0.808,P＜0.05;r=0.757,P＜0.05;r=0.836,P＜0.05;r=0.694,P＜0.05).Conclusions HFUS can effectively detect the characteristic changes such as the increase in the diameter of the extrcranial facial nerve trunk,local microcircula-tion disturbance and facial muscle atrophy in patients with PFP in the acute stage,and the increase and decrease of FN-d,FA Vs,FA Vd,FA-RI,DAO-t,and DLI-t can accurately reflect the improvement or progress of PFP,which has important guiding significance for clinical disease monitoring and efficacy evaluation.

Objective To investigate the value of gadolinium ethoxybenzyl diethylenetriamine pentaacetic acid(Gd-EOB-DTPA)enhanced MRI radiomics and signal intensity in hepatobiliary phase(HBP)in predicting the pathological differentiation degree of hep-atocellular carcinoma(HCC).Methods The clinical and imaging data of 224 patients pathologically confirmed with HCC were col-lected.All patients were randomly divided into test group(68 cases)and training group(156 cases)at a ratio of 7︰3.The ITK-SNAP software was used to delineate region of interest(ROI)on arterial phase(AP),portal venous phase(PVP)and HBP,the radiomics features of the tumor tissues were extracted and the radiomics models were established using the FAE software.Logistic regression analysis was used to determine the clinical independent predictors associated with the pathological differentiation degree of HCC and to construct clinical model and clinical-radiomics model.Receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve was plotted for each model and the area under the curve(AUC)was calculated to compare the diagnostic efficacy of the models.Results Age,alpha-fetoprotein(AFP),and r-glutamyltransferase(r-GT)were independent risk factors for predicting the degree of pathological differentiation of HCC.The AUC of the clinical-radiomics model in the training group and test group were 0.825 and 0.779,respectively,which were higher than those of the radiomics model(0.812 and 0.771)and the clinical model(0.687 and 0.666).Conclusion Gd-EOB-DTPA enhanced MRI radiomics have certain value in predicting the degree of pathological differentiation of HCC,while the predictive value of the signal intensity on HBP and the signal intensity ratio(SIR)on HBP is limited.

Cognitive decline is one of the most common adverse symptoms following acute high-altitude exposure(AHAE).MRI can reveal the structural and functional changes in brain caused by AHAE,thereby deeply understanding the specific mechanism of its cognitive decline,which is of great significance for early prevention and intervention.Research progresses on MRI assessment of cognitive function after AHAE and related intervention methods were reviewed in this article.

Objective:To analyze the characteristics of transabdominal bowel ultrasound (TBUS) in immune checkpoint inhibitor-related colitis (IRC) and their correlation with endoscopic manifestations.Methods:A cross-sectional study was conducted. Clinical data from 10 patients with IRC treated at Peking Union Medical College Hospital from January 2022 to January 2024 were collected. The ulcerative colitis endoscopic index of severity (UCEIS) and Limberg classification were used to assess the severity of colonoscopy and TBUS examinations, respectively. Kendall's tau-b method was applied for correlation analysis between UCEIS scores and Limberg classification.Results:All the 10 patients were male with a median age of 65 years (59-74 years). The majority had lung cancer (8 patients) and all were in advanced stages, with 6 patients in stage Ⅲ and 4 in stage Ⅳ. They all received anti-programmed death 1 (PD-1) /anti-programmed death ligand 1 (PD-L1) combined with chemotherapy, among whom 2 patients were combined with anti-angiogenic drug treatment. The median time from the first immunotherapy to the onset of IRC was 1.50 (0.25-12.00) months; the median time from IRC treatment to clinical symptom relief to G1 was 2.45 (0.50-8.00) weeks. Nine patients were in the active phase, mainly G3 (8 patients) ; 1 was in the remission phase after treatment. TBUS showed that among the 9 active IRC patients, the entire colon was mainly involved (7 patients), with combined small intestine involvement (3 patients) ; the main manifestations were thickening of the bowel wall, with the thickest bowel wall being 7.0 (5.0-8.0) mm, mainly located in the sigmoid colon (3 patients) and descending colon (3 patients) ; increased bowel wall blood flow signals (Limberg classification 2-4) occurred in 7 patients; 3 active patients had perienteric fat wrapping, and 2 had blurred bowel wall stratification. The Kendall's tau-b correlation coefficient r between the entire colon UCEIS scores and Limberg classification was 0.891 ( P = 0.003), and the Kendall's tau-b correlation coefficient r between the colon segment UCEIS scores and Limberg classification was 0.690 ( P < 0.001) . Conclusion:During the active phase, the left colon of IRC is more severe in TBUS, which mainly manifests as the thickening bowel wall and increased blood flow signals, and the TBUS has good correlation with colonoscopy evaluation.

Objective:To explore the feasibility of using a simplified multiple sleep latency test (MSLT) for the diagnosis of narcolepsy type 1.Methods:Data from 158 patients with narcolepsy type 1 and 58 patients with non-type 1 narcolepsy who underwent overnight video-polysomnography (V-PSG) and MSLT in the Sleep Center, Department of Neurology, Xijing Hospital, Air Force Military Medical University from March 2019 to April 2024 were retrospectively collected. By reducing the number of naps in the MSLT, the diagnostic consistency between the simplified MSLT and the standard 5-nap MSLT was evaluated using the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve. The DeLong test was used to compare whether there was a statistically significant difference between the simplified MSLT and the standard 5-nap MSLT. Cohen′s Kappa statistical analysis was performed to compare the diagnostic consistency between the simplified MSLT and the standard 5-nap MSLT.Results:The age of the 216 patients who were ultimately enrolled was 17 (13, 30) years, including 152 male patients (70.4%). The Cohen′s Kappa between the simplified 3-nap MSLT and the standard 5-nap MSLT was 0.875, which was 0.903 between the simplified 4-nap MSLT and the standard 5-nap MSLT (Bonferroni-corrected, both P0.001), indicating high and statistically significant agreement for both simplified protocols with the standard test. However, the DeLong test revealed that the area under the curve of the standard 5-nap MSLT (0.900, 95% CI 0.863-0.938) differed significantly from that of the simplified 3-nap MSLT (0.860, 95% CI 0.817-0.904; P0.05), whereas no significant difference was observed between the standard 5-nap MSLT and the simplified 4-nap MSLT (0.876, 95% CI 0.834-0.918; P0.05). Consequently, performing only the first 4 naps was sufficient for diagnosing narcolepsy type 1. Conclusion:The simplified 4-nap MSLT, specifically the first to fourth naps, may be used for the diagnosis of narcolepsy type 1.

[Objective]To summarize Professor PENG Yu's academic experience in treating male diseases from the perspective of ministerial fire.[Methods]Based on a thorough understanding of the pathogenesis of male diseases and their clinical manifestations,this study systematically summarizes the impact of ministerial fire on male physiology,the pathological characteristics of ministerial fire hyperactivity and its relationship with male diseases,and the principles and methods for treating male diseases from the perspective of ministerial fire.A typical clinical case was also presented as proof.[Results]Professor PENG believes that ministerial fire plays a crucial role in maintaining the growth,development,maturation and functional expression of male reproductive organs,thereby exerting a positive impact on male physiology.However,under pathological conditions,the hyperactivity of ministerial fire is characterized by its interaction with Yin deficiency,stimulation by sovereign fire,mutual disturbance with damp-heat,and the formation of phlegm and blood stasis.These pathological changes can induce some male diseases.In terms of treatment,emphasis is placed on nourishing the kidney water and purging the kidney fire,clearing the heart fire and purging the liver fire,resolving damp-heat,and dispersing phlegm and blood stasis.Specific therapeutic principles and formulas are established based on the unique pathogenesis of each male disease.In the typical case,the patient was diagnosed as a pattern of disharmony between the heart and kidney.The treatment involved clearing the heart fire,purging the kidney fire,nourishing the kidney water,and regulating the spleen and stomach,and was treated with modified Zhibai Dihuang Decoction combined with Nianmo Decoction for over one month,resulting in marked symptoms control.[Conclusion]Professor PENG Yu is adept at analyzing the pathogenesis of male diseases from the perspective of ministerial fire hyperactivity.He focuses on the treatment of male diseases with Yin-nourishing methods,using concise and flexible medication adjustments,thus providing new insights for the clinical differentiation and treatment of male diseases.
