BackgroundThe violent aggressive behaviors of patients with schizophrenia usually have the characteristics of suddenness， unpredictability， high severity， and great difficulty in prevention. Early identification and accurate assessment of their risk of violent aggression have significant clinical significance. ObjectiveTo construct a predictive model for the violence risk in hospitalized patients with schizophrenia， to identify the key factors influencing the occurrence of violent behavior in these patients， so as to provide references for clinical precise quantitative assessment and early intervention. MethodsA total of 200 patients with schizophrenia who were hospitalized at Taiyuan Psychiatric Hospital from March 2022 to September 2024 and met the diagnostic criteria of the International Classification of Diseases， eleventh edition （ICD-11） were collected to form the modeling cohort. They were randomly divided into a training set （n=140） and a test set （n=60） at a ratio of 7∶3. Based on the least absolute shrinkage and selection operator （LASSO） regression algorithm， the feature variables were screened and dimension-reduced. The support vector machine （SVM） from machine learning was selected for model training and prediction. The discrimination efficacy of the model was evaluated by the area under the receiver operating characteristic （ROC） curve （AUC）， accuracy， precision， sensitivity， specificity， F1 value， and Brier value. ResultsLASSO regression screening identified 16 feature variables. Pearson correlation analysis revealed a positive correlation between prior violent behavior frequency and clinical psychiatric symptom scores （r=0.580， P<0.01）， a positive correlation between hospitalization compliance and current disease status （r=0.550， P=0.003）， and a positive correlation between educational level and family per capita monthly income （r=0.367， P<0.01）. The SVM model achieved an AUC of 0.853， accuracy of 0.800， precision of 0.810， sensitivity of 0.895， specificity of 0.636， F1 value of 0.850， and Brier value of 0.168. ConclusionThe SVM model has a relatively high level of applicability and overall predictive performance in the assessment of violent risk in schizophrenia patients， which is helpful for the early identification of violent risks in such patients. ［Funded by Specialized Research Project for Enhancing the Competence of Health Professionals in Taiyuan City （number， Y2023006）］

OBJECTIVE To develope a predictive model for medication deviation risks during the hospital-to-home transition period in coronary heart disease （CHD） patients with initial treatment， aiming to assist medical staff in rapidly identifying high-risk groups for medication deviation. METHODS A total of 462 CHD patients with initial treatment from the Affiliated Hospital of North China University of Science and Technology （hereinafter referred to as “our hospital”） between January and July 2024 were enrolled. The patients were randomly divided into a modeling group and an internal validation group. The modeling group was further categorized into a medication deviation group and a non-medication deviation group based on whether medication deviations occurred. Similarly， 57 CHD patients with initial treatment from the cardiology department of our hospital between June and September 2025 were collected as an external validation group. Univariate analysis was used to screen predictive factors， followed by multivariate Logistic regression to construct the predictive model. Internal validation methods were employed to evaluate model performance， while external validation methods were used to test the model’s generalizability. RESULTS The 462 patients were divided into a modeling group （319 cases） and an internal validation group （143 cases）. In the modeling group， the medication deviation group （192 cases， 60.19%） and the non-medication deviation group （127 cases， 39.81%） were identified. Multivariate Logistic regression analysis revealed that age， medication type， medication adherence， and self-efficacy in rational medication use were predictive factors for medication deviations in CHD patients with initial treatment （ P ＜0.05）. The predictive model equation was logit P ＝ln[ P /（1－ P ） ] ＝1.321+1.732×age+4.091×medication type －4.360×medication adherence －3.081×self-efficacy in rational medication use. The model demonstrated good discrimination， with a Hosmer-Lemeshow goodness-of-fit test P -value of 0.439， an area under the receiver operating characteristic curve （AUC） of 0.870， sensitivity of 0.970， and specificity of 0.607. A risk nomogram with a total score of 350 points and a cutoff value of 110 points was plotted. The internal validation group showed an AUC o f 0.787 and a prediction accuracy of 77.6%， while the external validation group exhibited an AUC of 0.802 and a prediction accuracy of 73.7%. CONCLUSIONS This study successfully developed a predictive model for medication deviation risks during the hospital-to-home transition period in CHD patients with initial treatment. The model demonstrates excellent discrimination and predictive accuracy， effectively identifying high-risk populations for medication deviations. Age （＞70 years）， number of drug types≥5， poor medication adherence， and poor self-efficacy in rational medication use are independent risk factors for medication deviations.

ObjectiveTo observe the clinical efficacy and safety of Yanghe Xiaonang Decoction （阳和消囊汤， YXD） in the treatment of polycystic ovarian syndrome （PCOS）-related infertility with healthy qi deficiency and phlegm stasis syndrome. MethodsA total of 120 PCOS-related infertility participants with healthy qi deficiency and phlegm stasis syndrome were randomly divided into a treatment group and a control group in a 1∶1 ratio， with 60 cases in each group. The treatment group started taking YXD on the first day of the menstrual cycle， one dose daily， until the day of sexual intercourse when follicles matured and were released. Those without mature follicles or ovulation could take it until the 14th to 28th day. The control group was given oral letrozole at 2.5 mg daily starting on the 5th day of the menstrual cycle for 5 consecutive days. If the basal body temperature curve remained monophasic on the 28th day of the menstrual cycle， and no dominant follicle was detected by color Doppler ultrasound， estrogen plus progesterone or progesterone alone was administered for withdrawal bleeding， followed by a new treatment cycle. The treatment lasted for three consecutive menstrual cycles. Patients were followed up for 3 months upon confirmed pregnancy or after the completion of the 3rd treatment cycle. The clinical pregnancy rate， total effective rate， pregnancy rate， biochemical pregnancy rate， embryonic arrest rate， and ectopic pregnancy rate between the two groups were compared. Transvaginal color Doppler ultrasound was used for monitoring endometrial thickness， cyclic ovulation status， number of follicles between 2-9 mm， and the difference in transverse and longitudinal diameters of dominant follicles. The levels of endocrine hormone indicators including serum testosterone （T）， prolactin （PRL）， luteinizing hormone （LH）， follicle-stimulating hormone （FSH）， progesterone （P）， estradiol （E₂）， free testosterone （F-T）， androstenedione （ASD）， inhibin B （INH-B）， and anti-Müllerian hormone （AMH）， as well as the total traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） symptom scores before and after treatment were compared between the two groups. ResultsA total of 58 patients in each group were included in the statistical analysis. The clinical pregnancy rate in the treatment group was 39.66% （23/58）， higher than 22.41% （13/58） in the control group （P＜0.05）. The total effective rate in the treatment group was 96.55% （56/58）， higher than 79.31% （46/58） in the control group （P＜0.05）. The biochemical pregnancy rate and embryonic arrest rate in the treatment group were lower than those in the control group （P＜0.05）. The treatment group was superior to the control group in increasing endometrial thickness and reducing the number of 2-9 mm follicles at the 2nd and 3rd cycles， as well as in improving the cyclic ovulation status and the difference in transverse and longitudinal diameters of dominant follicles at the 3rd cycle （P＜0.05）. After treatment， the treatment group exhibited significant reductions in serum T， LH， F-T， ASD， INH-B， and AMH levels （P＜0.05）. The control group also showed significant decreases in LH， F-T， INH-B， and AMH levels （P＜0.05）. The levels of F-T， INH-B， and AMH in the treatment group after treatment were lower than those in the control group （P＜0.05）. The improvement of the total TCM symptom score in the treatment group was superior to that in the control group （P＜0.05）. ConclusionYXD can significantly improve the clinical pregnancy rate， reduce the rates of biochemical pregnancy and embryonic arrest， alleviate clinical symptoms， increase endometrial thickness， enhance dominant follicles， and improve endocrine hormone levels in PCOS-related infertility with healthy qi deficiency and phlegm stasis syndrome， showing good safety.

ObjectiveTo develop and evaluate an O-RADSbased multiparametric model integratingcontrast-enhanced US （CEUS） and the z-score standardized risk of ovarian malignancy algorithm （ROMA z-score） to improve the diagnostic accuracy for differentiating benign， borderline， and malignant ovarian epithelial tumors （OETs）. MethodsThis retrospective study included 129 patients with pathologically confirmed OETs between May 2018 and December 2024. Clinical variables （age， menopausal status， BMI， HE4， CA125） and sonographic features （conventional US and CEUS） were collected. Tumors were classified as benign， borderline， or malignant according to pathological findings. A random forest algorithm was used to contruct the predictive model. Receiver operating characteristic （ROC） curves were generated tocompare the diagnostic performance of O-RADS， O-RADS+CEUS， O-RADS+ROMA z-score， and O-RADS+ CEUS+ROMA z-score. ResultsAmong the 129 patients， 63 had benign tumors， 25 had borderline tumors， and 41 had malignant tumors. Compared with O-RADS alone， the combined O-RADS+CEUS+ROMA z-score model demonstrated superior diagnostic performance， with an AUC of 0.87 （95% CI： 0.79-0.95） vs. 0.64 （95% CI： 0.51-0.76）， P＜0.001， for differentiating benign from borderline tumors， and 0.90 （95% CI： 0.83-0.97） vs. 0.64 （95% CI： 0.50-0.78）， P＜0.001， for differentiating borderline from malignant tumors. The random forest analysis identified HE4， CA125 and CEUS features as the most important predictors，contributing 11.02， 8.82， 18.1 points， respectively， to the total importance score of 51.94. In the test cohort， the model achieved an overall diagnostic accuracy of 72.97%， with an AUC of 0.89（95%CI：0.77-1.00）， sensitivity of 67.06%， and specificity of 85.01%. ConclusionsO-RADS+CEUS+ROMA z-score multiparametric model demonstrated the highest diagnostic performance for in differentiating benign from borderline and borderline from malignant OETs. HE4， CA125 and CEUS features were identified as key predictive risk factors， supporting the role of this model in improving preoperative risk stratification of OETs.

Objective To explore the diagnosis and treatment strategies for elderly patients with ground-glass opacity (GGO). Methods The imaging features and postoperative pathological findings of the elderly patients with pulmonary GGO receiving surgery in our hospital from 2017 to 2019 were retrospectively analyzed. The patients were divided into an elderly patient group and a non-elderly patient group based on their age. Results Finally 575 patients were included in the study. There were 281 elderly patients, including 83 males and 198 females, with an average age of (67.0±5.3) years. There were 294 non-elderly patients, including 88 males and 206 females, with an average age of (49.1±7.3) years. Compared with the non-elderly patients, elderly GGO patients showed the following distinct clinical features: long observation time for lesions (P=0.001), high proportion of rough edges of GGO (P<0.001), significant pleural signs (P＜0.001) and bronchial signs (P＜0.001), and high proportion of type Ⅱ-Ⅳ GGO (P<0.001), lobectomy type (P=0.013), and invasive lesions reported in postoperative pathology (P<0.001). There was no statistical difference in the average hospital stay between the two groups (P=0.106). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that GGO diameter and GGO type were the main factors affecting the operation. Observation time, GGO diameter, GGO type and pleural signs were the main influencing factors for postoperative pathological infiltrative lesions. The cut-off value of GGO diameter in predicting infiltrating lesions was 10.5 mm in the elderly patients group. Conclusion The size and type of GGO are important factors in predicting invasive lesions and selecting surgical methods. Elderly patients with radiographic manifestations of type Ⅱ-Ⅳ GGO lesions with a diameter greater than 10.5 mm should be closely followed up.

OBJECTIVE To explore the effect of failure mode and effect analysis(FMEA)on management of hospi-tal-associated infections(HAIs)in hemodialysis center.METHODS In Nov.2023,the risk priority number(RPN)integrated with action priority(AP)was adopted to identify,analyze and evaluate the risk factors in man-agement of HAIs in hemodialysis center of Tongji Hospital Affiliated to Tongji Medical College,Huazhong Uni-versity of Science and Technology by FMEA method.The high risk points that needed to be taken interventions were screened out,and the targeted measures were formulated to control the risks.At the end of the intervention period,a second round of risk assessment was carried out for improvement status of the high-risk points in Nov.2024,and the effect on the management of HAIs was evaluated.RESULTS The risk assessment was carried out for 48 risk points covering eight aspects,including organizational structure,self-inspection and supervision,staff management,environmental layout,cleaning and disinfection,surveillance,operation procedures and i-tem management.There were 9 risk points with the RPN values greater than 125,3 of which were with the AP value of"H".There were 8 risk points with the RPN value less than 125 and 6 risk points with the AP value drop-ping down to L after the targeted intervention measures were taken,indicating that the risk management has a-chieved favorable effect.CONCLUSIONS The RPN and AP integrated with FMEA can accurately identify the high-risk points in the quality management of the hemodialysis center.It is necessary to take targeted interven-tion measures so as to boost the effect on prevention and control of HAIs in the hemodialysis center and reduce the risk of HAIs in the hemodialysis patients.

Nitrogen dioxide(NO 2)is a prevalent air pollutant that poses significant threats to the environment and human health,emphasizing the urgent need for high-performance NO 2 sensors for effective environmental monitoring at room temperature.Sensors based on metal halide perovskites have emerged as promising candidates for gas detection at room temperature,but their long-term stability remains a major challenge.In this study,a methylamine thiocyanate(MT)-doped FA 0.8Cs 0.2PbI 2Br(PVK)gas sensor(MT-PVK)was prepared using a simple one-step spin-coating method and ethyl acetate(EA)anti-solvent extraction technique.The crystalline structure,chemical composition,and particle morphology of the MT-PVK thin film were characterized.The MT-PVK thin film was then utilized as a gas sensor for NO 2 detection at room temperature.The results demonstrated that the sensor exhibited outstanding selectivity and reversibility at low concentrations of NO 2 gas,with a detection limit as low as 33 ppb(10-9,nL/L).For 10 ppm(10-6,μL/L)NO 2,the sensor showed rapid response and recovery time of only 1.6 s and 27 s,outperforming most traditional metal oxide NO 2 sensors.Furthermore,compared to the original PVK,the MT molecules significantly enhanced the structural and sensing stability of the MT-PVK sensor under high humidity conditions(55%±5%).These findings suggested that MT-doped FA 0.8Cs 0.2PbI 2Br perovskite gas sensors offered a promising pathway for the development of rapid-response gas sensing technologies suitable for room temperature operation.

Aim To explore the role and mechanism of epimedokoreanin B(EKB)in HepaRG cell pyroptosis through endoplasmic reticulum stress and NLRP1-me-diated pyroptosis pathway.Methods The effect of EKB on the viability of HepaRG cells at different con-centrations was determined by MTT assay,and the cell growth status was recorded by Incucyte.Four groups of HepaRG cells were set up.The control group was cul-tured with complete medium for 24 h;the drug admin-istration group was cultured with three concentration gradients of 6.25,12.5 and 25 μmol·L-1 of EKB for 24 h.Western blot was used to detect the expression levels of endoplasmic reticulum stress-related proteins and pyroptosis-related proteins in the cells of each group.Results HepaRG cells showed cytotoxicity at a concentration of 6.25 μmol·L-1 for 24 h,and the half maximal inhibitory concentration(IC50)was 12.41 μmol·L-1.Incucyte recordings of the cell growth status showed that the cells in the control group were in good growth status,and the vesicular pyropto-sis cells appeared in the different concentrations of EKB and the cells swelled and ruptured after 24 h.Western blot showed that the protein expression levels of endoplasmic reticulum stress-related proteins pERK,eIF-2α,ATF-4,GRP78,and CHOP significantly in-creased in HepaRG cells at 25 μmol·L-1 of EKB compared with the control group.The proteins of the classical pathway of cellular pyroptosis mediated by NLRP1,caspase-1,cleaved caspase-1,GSDMD,GS-DMD-N significantly increased in HepaRG cells.Con-clusion EKB administration induces HepaRG cell py-roptosis,and EKB activates HepaRG cells to undergo endoplasmic reticulum stress and activates the NLRP1/caspase-1/GSDMD-mediated pyroptosis pathway.
