Objective: To investigate the status and associated factors of sports supplement usage among grade 9 students, so as to provide a scientific basis for targeted supervision and health education regarding sports supplement usage among junior high school students. Methods: From June to September 2025, a stratified cluster random sampling method was used to select 2 261 grade 9 students from 10 provinces (autonomous regions, municipalities) in China. A questionnaire survey was conducted on their sports supplement usage and related factors. The Chi square test was used to compare the usage rates of sports supplements among different groups of students, and binary Logistic regression analysis was employed to investigate the related factors of sports supplement usage among grade 9 students. Results: Totally 59.7% of the grade 9 students used sports supplements. The usage rate (62.5%) was higher among boys than girls (56.3%), higher among students from rural areas and towns/counties (66.5%, 66.2%) than those from urban districts (52.9%), higher among boarding students (65.2%) than non resident students (54.3%), higher among students whose parents occupations were businessmen and workers (fathers: 65.0%, 63.7%; mothers: 63.6%, 61.1%) than those whose parents were farmers and civil servants (fathers: 57.5%, 54.1%; mothers: 58.8%, 55.7%), higher among students with a monthly family income of 5 000- 10 000 yuan (66.3%) than those in other income groups, and higher among students in the high score zone for the entrance physical examination to senior high school (67.7%) than those in the medium and low score zones ( 56.3% , 56.5%) ( χ 2=8.99, 42.21, 27.98, 20.55, 8.20, 22.74, 24.70, respectively, all P <0.05). Binary Logistic regression analysis showed that boys ( OR =1.26), those from rural areas ( OR =1.59), boarding students ( OR =1.36), those with a monthly family income of 5 000- 10 000 yuan ( OR =1.41), and those in the high score zone for entrance physical examination to senior high school ( OR =1.34) were more likely to use sports supplements during the entrance physical examination to senior high school; the probability of sports supplement usage was lower among students whose fathers were civil servants ( OR =0.74) (all P <0.05). Conclusions The usage of sports supplements is relatively common among grade 9 students. Intervention measures should be targeted at specific populations to reduce the risk of misuse.

Objective:To retrospectively evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety of total 3D laparo-scopic ileal ureters replacement for bilateral ureters combined with bladder augmentation in patients with post-radiotherapy long-segment bilateral ureteral strictures and contracted bladder.Methods:Clinical data of two patients(aged 72 and 54 years)with radiation-induced long-segment bilateral ureteral stric-tures and reduced bladder capacity,treated at the Sixth Affiliated Hospital of Jinan University from Octo-ber 2023 to June 2024,were analyzed.Both presented with bilateral flank pain,recurrent chills/fever,urinary frequency,and urgency.Preoperative ureteral stricture lengths were measured as follows:left 10.4 cm and right 8.7 cm in the first case;left 10.6 cm and right 11.7 cm in the second case.Bladder capacity assessed by nephrostomy-assisted antegrade urography was 90 mL and 130 mL respectively.Both underwent single-position,one-stage totally 3D laparoscopic bilateral ileal ureteral replacement and blad-der augmentation based on membrane anatomy principles,with regular postoperative follow-up.Results:Procedures were completed by the same experienced urologist.Operative times were 420 min and 355 min,with intraoperative blood loss of 50 mL(no transfusion required).Postoperative bowel function re-sumed at the end of 4.5 and 3 days.No major perioperative complications occurred.Ureteral stents were removed at 2 months postoperatively,with imaging showing improved hydronephrosis,unobstructed ure-teral drainage,symmetrical bladder morphology,and smooth walls.Postoperative bladder capacities were 230 mL and 250 mL.Follow-up durations were 10 and 8 months.Both patients experienced significant relief of flank pain and lower urinary tract symptoms.No complications(enteric fistula,urinary fistula,or metabolic acidosis)were observed.At the final follow-up,one patient had mildly elevated serum cre-atinine,while the other showed reduced levels compared with preoperative values;both remained stable.Conclusion:Membrane anatomy-based dissection facilitates safe mobilization of fibrotic ureters with mini-mal bleeding and collateral damage.Total intracorporeal 3D laparoscopic ileal ureters replacement for bi-lateral ureters combined with bladder augmentation effectively addresses long-segment ureteral obstruction and improves bladder capacity.This approach is technically safe and feasible,though further validation with larger clinical cohorts is warranted.

Objective To investigate the influencing factors associated with the risk of positive methylation levels of SHOX2/RASSF1A/PTGER4 genes in patients with pulmonary nodules with TCM susceptibility.Methods Using a cross-sectional study method,totally 165 patients with pulmonary nodules from the Respiratory Department of Wangjing Hospital,China Academy of Chinese Medical Sciences were included from May 2024 to December 2024.Clinical data such as patients'general medical history,nodule imaging reports,lung cancer gene methylation levels,and TCM constitution assessments were organized and statistically analyzed.On the basis of exploring the correlation between various variables and the risk of positive methylation of lung cancer genes through univariate correlation analysis,a binary logistic regression model was used for independent risk factor analysis.Results Univariate correlation analysis showed that age,gender,TCM susceptibility score,diameter of pulmonary nodules and upper lobe of the right lung were correlated with positive methylation levels of the SHOX2/RASSF1A/PTGER4 genes(P=0.03,P=0.02,P=0.01,P<0.01,P=0.03);and binary Logistic regression analysis showed that yang-deficiency quality,qi deficiency,qi depression and phlegm-dampness,the four pulmonary nodules susceptibility body scores were significantly and positively correlated with the risk of SHOX2/RASSF1A/PTGER4 gene methylation positivity.Compared with yang deficiency,phlegm-dampness and qi depression had a higher risk of gene methylation positivity for patients with pulmonary nodules(P=0.04,P=0.02).Conclusion Older age,males,and TCM susceptibility body correlated with the lung cancer gene methylation positive risk are correlated,in which phlegm dampness and qi depression are independent risk factors.

Objective:To analyze the clinical and genetic characteristics of children diagnosed with Noonan-syndrome associated with loose anagen hair (NS-LAH).Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of 5 children diagnosed with NS-LAH by the Endocrinology Department of the Capital Institute of Pediatrics from January 2018 to June 2024. This analysis encompassed the patients′ demographic information, clinical manifestations, distinguishing features, treatment regimens, and prognostic outcomes to elucidate their clinical characteristics. Additionally, whole-exome sequencing and Sanger sequencing were utilized to investigate the genetic etiology within the families, and the identified variations were interpreted according to the guidelines of the American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics.Results:Among the 5 NS-LAH patients, there were 3 boys and 2 girls, with ages at diagnosis ranging from 2.3 to 7.7 years old. All patients presented with short stature as a primary complaint. Birth histories were generally unremarkable, though case 2 and 5 of macrosomia were noted. In addition to the characteristic facial features of Noonan syndrome, short stature, and varying degrees of intellectual and motor developmental delay, all 5 patients exhibited sparse hair that was easily shed, as well as enlarged head circumferences. Four patients showed structural cardiac abnormalities, which included a case of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, 2 cases of atrial septal defect, and 1 case of patent foramen ovale. Genetic analysis revealed heterozygous missense variantion in SHOC2 gene in 4 patients, comprising 3 cases with c.4A>G (p.S2G) and one case with c.519G>C (p.M173I). Additionally, one patient was found to have a heterozygous missense variantion c.146C>G (p.P49R) in PPP1CB gene. Three children were diagnosed with growth hormone deficiency and treated with growth hormone for 1.7, 2.7 and 0.5 years. This resulted in significant improvements in height, with annual increases of 11.8, 8.4 and 13.0 cm, respectively. Among the 4 patients with SHOC2 variantions, 2 developed systemic lupus erythematosus and 1 exhibited symptoms of arthritis.Conclusions:Growth failure is the primary complaint in patients with NS-LAH. Key characteristic findings include enlarged head circumference and sparse, loose hair. Growth hormone deficiency is commonly associated with NS-LAH, and growth hormone therapy is generally effective. Furthermore, patients carrying the classic variantion in SHOC2 (c.4A>G) may have an increased risk of developing autoimmune diseases.

Objective:To investigate the completion rate of tumor evaluation at initial assessment and after neoadjuvant therapy for mid and low rectal cancer patients in the national multicenter real-world database.Methods:The prospective real-world study was conducted. The clinicopathological data of 1 074 patients who underwent surgical treatment for mid and low rectal cancer in 47 national medical institutions, including Peking Union Medical College Hospital et al, from May 12,2023 to May 11,2024 were collected. Observation indicators: (1) clinical characteristics of patients with mid and low rectal cancer; (2) initial colonoscopy and pathologic evaluation of tumors in patients with mid and low rectal cancer; (3) initial imaging evaluation of patients with mid and low rectal cancer; (4) imaging evaluation after neoadjuvant therapy for patients with mid and low rectal cancer. Measurement data with normal distribution were represented as Mean± SD, and measurement data with skewed distribution were represented as M( Q1, Q3). Count data were described as absoluter numbers and/or percentages. Results:(1) Clinical characteristics of patients with mid and low rectal cancer. Of the 1 074 patients, there were 713 males and 361 females, aged 63(56,70)years. The body mass index of 1 074 patients was 24(21,26)kg/m 2.For American Society of Anesthesiologists classification, there were 147 cases of stage Ⅰ, 641 cases of stage Ⅱ, 157 cases of stage Ⅲ, 2 cases of stage Ⅳ, and there were 127 cases missing data. (2) Initial colonoscopy and pathologic evaluation of tumors in patients with mid and low rectal cancer. Of the 1 074 patients, there were 787 cases (73.28%) undergoing complete colonoscopy, and there were only 197 cases (18.34%) undergoing immunohistochemical evaluation of all four mismatch repair proteins. (3) Initial imaging evaluation of patients with mid and low rectal cancer. Of the 1 074 patients, there were 842(78.40%) patients completing magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) or ultrasound evaluation, and there were 914(85.10%) patients completing chest, abdomen, and pelvis enhanced computed tomography (CT) evaluation. In the 149 patients completing rectal ultrasound evaluation, there were 122 cases (81.88%) comple-ting T staging evaluation, and there were 81 cases (54.36%) completing N staging evaluation. In the 808 patients completing rectal MRI evaluation, there were 708 cases (87.62%) completing T staging evaluation, and there were 590 cases (73.02%) completing N staging evaluation. (4) Imaging evalua-tion after neoadjuvant therapy for patients with mid and low rectal cancer. Of the 388 patients with neoadjuvant therapy, there were 332 patients (85.57%) completing MRI or ultrasound evaluation, and there were 327 patients (84.28%) completing chest, abdomen, and pelvis enhanced CT evalua-tion. In the 70 patients completing rectal ultrasound evaluation, there were 65 cases (92.86%) com-pleting T staging evaluation, and there were 49 cases (70.00%) completing N staging evaluation. In the 327 patients completing rectal MRI evaluation, there were 246 cases (75.23%) completing T staging, and there were 228 cases (69.72%) completing N staging evaluation. Conclusion:The com-pletion rate of tumor imaging evaluation at initial assessment and after neoadjuvant therapy for mid and low rectal cancer patients on a national scale is relatively good.

Objective:The aim of this study is to evaluate the clinical efficacy of Oxalicao Formula combined with transacu-puncture in the treatment of chronic nonbacterial prostatitis(CNP)characterized by dampness-heat stasis.Methods:A total of 70 patients diagnosed with CNP and characterized by dampness-heat stasis were randomly divided into control group and treatment group,with 35 cases in each group.The patients in control group received Qianlie Beixi capsules.While the patients in treatment group were administered with oxalis decoction in conjunction with acupuncture therapy which lasted for 8 weeks.Pre-and post-treatment evalua-tions for NIH-Chronic Prostatitis Symptom Index(NIH-CPSI),Traditional Chinese Medicine(TCM)symptom scores,urodynamic pa-rameters,immune cell subsets and inflammatory factors were performed.Results:Ultimately,65 patients completed the study with 33 in the treatment group and 32 in the control group.After 8 weeks of intervention,the patients in both of groups demonstrated signifi-cant improvements(P＜0.05).Specifically,remarkable reductions in the NIH-CPSI total score including pain score,urination score,quality of life impact score,TCM symptom score and inflammatory cytokine levels were observed.Additionally,there were upward trends in maximum and average urinary flow rates as well as the CD4+/CD8+ratio of immune cells(P＜0.05).Compared to the con-trol group,the treatment group exhibited superior outcomes in reducing the NIH-CPSI total score,pain score,urination score,quality of life impact score,TCM symptom score,and inflammatory cytokine levels,and increasing in CD4+/CD8+ratios,maximum and av-erage urine flow rates(P＜0.05).Conclusion:The combination of Oxalicao Formula and transacupuncture for treating CNP charac-terized by dampness-heat stasis demonstrates significant therapeutic benefits,which has considerable clinical application value.

Aim To study the mechanism of salidro-side combined with rosavin in rats with ischemic stroke.Methods The MCAO rats was established by using thread-embolic method.The rats were divided into the sham group,MCAO group,salidroside com-bined with rosavin group,and positive control group;the drug was given continuously for seven days.Western blot was used to detect apoptosis indicators.Proteomics was used to analyse differential proteins(DEPs).STEP receptor inhibitor was injected into the lateral ventricles,the rats were administered for seven days,then the apoptosis indicators were detected.Re-sults Salidroside combined with rosavin could reduce neurological function scores in MCAO rats and inhibit cell apoptosis.Quantitative proteomics identified 496 DEPs in brain tissue and discovered core proteins STEP,p38,and CRTC1.Salidroside combined with rosavin could promote the STEP and CRTC1 while in-hibiting p38 protein.After treatment with STEP inhibi-tor,those effects were reversed.Conclusion Salidro-side combined with rosavin can inhibit cell apoptosis in MCAO rats,which is closely related to the regulation of the STEP/p38/CRTC1 signaling pathway.

Miao medicine is guided by the medical theories of the Miao ethnic group,and the drugs used by the Miao people are derived from natural plants and animals for the prevention and treatment of diseases and protection of health.In recent years,a large number of clinical studies have shown good clinical efficacy of traditional Miao medicine in the treatment of prostatic diseases,with the advantages of easy availability,low price,and minimal adverse reactions.However,currently no systematic literature review has been reported on the treatment of prostatic diseases with Miao medicine.This article focuses on the commonly used Miao drugs recorded in the Chinese Materia Medica-Miao Medicine,with a systematic review of relevant literature retrieved on the treatment of prostate disea-ses with Miao medicine in recent years and a summarization of the advances in the studies of its pharmacological effects,mechanisms of action and clinical application,aiming to provide some new perspectives and ideas for further academic research and clinical develop-ment of Miao medicine.
