Attention deficit and hyperactive disorder （ADHD） is the most common neurodevelopmental disorder of childhood. It seriously impairs academic achievement， social interaction， and vocational development， and increases the risk of accidental injury and substance abuse. In some cases， the symptoms may also exert an indirect disruptive effect on public order. Its aetiology involves interactions among genetic， perinatal environmental， and psychosocial factors that cannot be fully disentangled by single clinical studies. Therefore， a systematic evaluation of existing animal models is essential for revealing pathophysiology and developing novel therapies. Using the keywords "attention deficit and hyperactive disorder"， "models， animal"， "validity"， and their English equivalents， we systematically searched PubMed， Web of Science， CNKI， and Wanfang for publications from 2000 to 2025 （retrieving 328 publications） and added further references by citation tracking. Eighty-six rodent ADHD models that provided detailed construction protocols， behavioural assessments， neurobiological mechanisms， or pharmacological data were included and classified into spontaneous genetic， genetically engineered， and environmentally induced paradigms. Their face， construct， and predictive validity were compared. Among spontaneous genetic models， spontaneously hypertensive rats reproduce hyperactivity， impulsivity， and stimulant responses well， yet hypertension and sex differences limit specificity. Acallosal mouse strains link corpus callosum absence to ADHD-like behaviours， but neurotransmitter studies remain scarce. Genetically engineered rodents—including dopamine transporter， neurokinin-1 receptor and mediator complex subunit 23 knockout or conditional gene knockout lines—precisely dissect dopaminergic， noradrenergic， synaptic， or epigenetic pathways， yet generally lack full phenotypic coverage， social-deficit modelling， and comorbidity representation， and are accompanied by adverse effects such as growth retardation or ocular defects. Environmentally induced models employ lead， polychlorinated biphenyls， alcohol， nicotine exposures， 6-hydroxydopamine lesions， neonatal hypoxia， early social isolation， or maternal stress to recapitulate core symptoms. However， dose-schedule standardisation is lacking. Behavioural reversibility diverges from clinical persistence， and non-specific phenotypes such as anxiety or depression are common. Overall， no single paradigm simultaneously achieves high validity across all three dimensions. Currently， ADHD models have progressed from single-factor simulations to multidimensional evaluation， yet significant gaps remain in genetic-background standardisation， sex differences， cross-species translation， and syndrome-differentiation modelling under traditional Chinese medicine. Future directions should integrate genetic， environmental， and epigenetic interactions， establish life-span validation systems， and incorporate computational neuroscience alongside integrative Chinese-Western strategies to enhance clinical relevance and translational utility， thereby providing robust evidence-based support for mechanistic elucidation， drug screening and precision intervention in ADHD.

ObjectiveTaking Aurantii Fructus Immaturus juice（AFI）-processed Atractylodis Macrocephalae Rhizoma（AMR） as an example， this study aims to systematically compare the volatile and non-volatile components of AMR and its processed products， investigate the key differential components， evaluate their anti-inflammatory activities， and elucidate the synergistic mechanism of processing. MethodsThe chemical compositions of volatile and non-volatile components in AMR and AFI-processed AMR were systematically characterized using gas chromatography-mass spectrometry（GC-MS） and ultra-performance liquid chromatography-quadrupole-time-of-flight mass spectrometry（UPLC-Q-TOF-MS）， with relative mass fractions and response values determined separately. Volatile components were identified through searches in the National Institute of Standards and Technology（NIST）17 database， comparison with retention index（RI） and fragmentation pattern matching. Non-volatile components were identified by searching Waters Traditional Chinese Medicine （TCM） spectral library， in conjunction with PubChem and MassBank， characteristic fragmentation patterns and response values were also used to support identification. Differential components were screened using principal component analysis（PCA）， orthogonal partial least squares-discriminant analysis（OPLS-DA）， with variable importance in the projection（VIP） value >1. Components with high log₂fold change（FC） among major differential groups were selected as those exhibiting significant changes before and after processing. The anti-inflammatory activity of the differential compounds was evaluated by assessing their effects on nitric oxide（NO） production in a lipopolysaccharide（LPS）-induced RAW264.7 macrophage model. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay（ELISA） was used to detect the effects of the differential components on tumor necrosis factor（TNF）-α， interleukin（IL）-1β， IL-6， and monocyte chemotactic protein（MCP）-1 levels， and immunofluorescence（IF） was employed to assess their effects on nuclear transcription factor（NF）-κB p65 translocation， thereby elucidating the underlying molecular mechanisms. ResultsA total of 36 compounds were identified in the volatile components of AMR and AFI-processed AMR， among which， sesquiterpenes and monoterpenes were significantly increased after processing. In the non-volatile components， 36 compounds were identified， and the main differential components were flavonoids， sesquiterpenoids， and triterpenoids. Flavonoids were the primary differential components distinguishing AMR from its processed products， representing compounds directly introduced during processing. Five compounds， including atractylenolide Ⅲ， tangeritin， nobiletin， hesperidin and narirutin， were selected as representatives of three classes based on their most prominent differential expression among different compound types for subsequent anti-inflammatory activity studies. The results showed that 100 μmol·L^-1 tangerine and narirutin could significantly inhibit LPS-induced NO production（P<0.01） in a concentration-dependent manner. Tangeritin was able to significantly inhibit the levels of TNF-α and MCP-1 secreted by RAW264.7（P<0.05）， while narirutin significantly inhibited the levels of TNF-α， IL-1β， MCP-1 and IL-6（P<0.01）. IF revealed that both tangeritin and narirutin significantly blocked the translocation of NF-κB p65 from the cytoplasm to the nucleus. ConclusionAFI-processed AMR significantly alters the chemical composition profile of AMR， and the newly introduced flavonoid components during processing may be key to its enhanced anti-inflammatory effects.

The global rise in myopia prevalence and its increasingly earlier onset have become a serious public health concern. Drug intervention represents an important strategy for slowing myopia progression and reducing the risk of complications associated with high myopia. In studies of drug efficacy and underlying mechanisms, guinea pigs are widely regarded as an ideal animal model for experimental myopia because their ocular structure and refractive development are similar to those of humans. Current evidence indicates that chemical drugs, including muscarinic receptor antagonists, dopamine-related agents, and certain intraocular pressure-lowering drugs, may exert effects by modulating retina-choroid signaling pathways, inhibiting scleral remodeling, and suppressing excessive axial elongation. In contrast, traditional Chinese medicine and its bioactive components exhibit multitarget intervention advantages via improving retinal microcirculation, exerting antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects, and regulating extracellular matrix metabolism.In addition, the exploration of novel therapeutic targets and advanced drug delivery systems, such as scleral collagen cross-linking, sustained-release formulations, and nanocarrier-based delivery systems, has opened new avenues for myopia control. However, this field still faces several challenges, including insufficient evidence for long-term drug safety, an incomplete understanding of the underlying molecular mechanisms, and limited progress in clinical translation. This review provides a reference for further research and clinical application of pharmacological strategies for myopia control.

Adaptive optics(AO)is a technology designed to enhance the performance of optical systems through real-time measurement and correction of optical aberrations. With continuous advancements in refractive surgery techniques and rising patient expectations for surgical outcomes, the precise implementation of personalized refractive corrections has become a critical focus. The integration of AO technology into refractive surgery provides novel technical support. Specifically, the adaptive optics vision simulator(VAO)facilitates accurate preoperative objective and subjective refraction by dynamically measuring and correcting ocular wavefront aberrations, thereby improving refractive efficiency. Additionally, it enables effective prediction of postoperative aberrations for personalized procedures, assists clinicians in making data-driven preoperative decisions, facilitates comparative analysis of different surgical techniques, and allows intuitive evaluation of postoperative visual quality. This review comprehensively examines the advances in VAO applications for refractive surgery and analyzes both its clinical advantages and technical limitations.

With the accelerating process of population aging, binocular vision disorders have become increasingly prevalent, posing new challenges for both social aging strategies and ophthalmic clinical practice. Non-strabismic binocular vision anomalies(NSBVAs)are notably prevalent among elderly populations; however, current research predominantly focuses on the abnormality rates derived from individual binocular vision clinical tests, while data on the actual prevalence based on comprehensive diagnostic criteria remain limited. This review synthesizes existing scientific literature to provide a concise yet comprehensive overview of the prevalence, risk factors, and clinical diagnostic methods of NSBVAs in pre-presbyopic and presbyopic populations, with an in-depth examination of age-related changes in binocular vision function among older adults. By integrating and comparing analyses of the correlations between age and various binocular vision parameters, this review aims to enhance understanding of age-related binocular vision dysfunction and establish a theoretical foundation for developing targeted diagnostic and therapeutic approaches. Ultimately, these insights could contribute to improved visual performance and life satisfaction in elderly individuals.

OBJECTIVE: To explore the clinical phenotype and genetic characteristics of four patients with Phelan-McDermid syndrome (PMS) due to variants of SHANK3 gene. METHODS: Four patients diagnosed with PMS at Guangzhou Women and Children's Medical Center Liuzhou Hospital from January 2020 to January 2025 were selected as the study subjects. Clinical data of the patients were collected. Peripheral venous blood samples were collected from each patient for the extraction of genomic DNA, followed by whole-exome sequencing (WES) and validation by Sanger sequencing. Pathogenicity of candidate variants was rated based on the guidelines from the American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics (ACMG), and multiple bioinformatic tools were used to assess the pathogenic effects of the variants. The study was approved by the Ethics Committee of the Hospital (Ethics No. 2025-007). RESULTS: All four patients had exhibited language delay and intellectual disability (IQ 35 ~ 65). Some also presented with autism spectrum disorder and schizophrenia, albeit with significant phenotypic heterogeneity. All patients were found to harbor deletions of 22q13.33 region, ranging from 55.46 Kb to 112.64 Kb, primarily involving the SHANK3 gene. CONCLUSION PMS is typically caused by deletions or mutations of the SHANK3 gene. The clinical manifestations are diverse, with developmental delay and intellectual disability being the most common. Accurate diagnosis requires integration of genetic testing and standardized clinical assessment. Genetic screening for suspected patients and at-risk pregnant women is recommended to facilitate their genetic counseling.

Inflammation is an important pathological mechanism of cognitive impairment in CSVD and its associated cognitive impairment. This article reviews the peripheral blood inflammatory markers of cognitive impairment in patients with CSVD.

N6-methyladenosine(m6A)is recognized as the most prevalent mRNA modification in mammals, intricately involved in a multitude of processes pertaining to mRNA metabolism, encompassing RNA transcription, translation, and degradation. It plays a pivotal role in various physiological functions. Under the coordinated actions of methyltransferases, demethylases, and m6A-binding proteins, m6A modifications undergo reversible changes to fulfill their diverse molecular functions.Methyltransferase-like 3(METTL3), as the core catalytic subunit of methyltransferases and the most extensively studied methyltransferase, holds a central position in m6A modification. In recent years, it has been found that METTL3-mediated m6A modification is involved in the occurrence and development of various ocular diseases, such as ocular surface diseases, glaucoma, cataract, retinal diseases, and ocular tumors, by affecting the expression of inflammatory factors and thus regulating the inflammatory response, and by regulating various pathways that affect the proliferation of cells and oxidative stress. In this paper, we comprehensively review the mechanisms under the role of METTL3 in ocular diseases, offering novel insights and perspectives for the prevention and management of these conditions.

Objective To explore the differences in positive psychological resources among elementary and secondary school students with and without non-suicidal self-injury(NSSI)behaviors.Methods Between September and October 2023,the assessment data of 56 870 students aged 9 to 18 years in Chengdu,Sichuan Province were collected.The R software package was used to evaluate the network structure and symptom centrality,and the global strength and structural differences of the networks of students with and without NSSI behaviors in elementary,junior high,and senior high schools were compared.Results The prevalence of NSSI among elementary and secondary school students stands at 12.21%.Specifically,it peaks in junior high school students,reaching 14.22%,followed by that in senior middle school students at 13.66%,and is lowest in elementary school students at 10.17%.Regarding the network structure in elementary school students,irrespective of the presence or absence of NSSI behavior,subjective support exhibits the strongest network strength,and family functioning demonstrates the highest closeness centrality.Among junior high school students without NSSI behaviors,the strongest network strength was observed in subjective support,whereas for those with NSSI behaviors,self-esteem showed the strongest network strength.In addition,subjective support exhibited the highest closeness centrality in both groups.In senior high school students,self-esteem was the factor with the strongest network strength for students with or without NSSI behaviors.For senior high school students without NSSI,subjective support had the highest closeness centrality,while for those with NSSI,expressive suppression showed the highest closeness centrality.The edge weights differed significantly among elementary school students in family functioning-self-esteem(E=0.093)and family functioning-objective support(E=0.087).For junior high school students,significant differences were found in objective support-subjective support(E=0.131)and family functioning-impulse control(E=0.109).Among senior high school students,significant differences were observed in impulse control-family function(E=0.133)and subjective support-utilization of support(E=0.130)(P<0.05).Conclusion Excessive family involvement in elementary school students and expressive suppression in senior high school students may be important influencing factors for NSSI behaviors.The lack of social support has a greater impact on junior and senior high school students.The strength of the connection among subjective support,objective support,and utilization of support is an important indicator.
