ObjectiveTo establish an ultra-performance liquid fingerprint and multi-components determination method for Naomaili granules. To evaluate the quality of different batches by chemometrics， and the anti-neuroinflammatory effects of water extract and main components of Naomaili granules were tested in vitro. MethodsThe similarity and common peaks of 27 batches of Naomaili granules were evaluated by using Ultra performance liquid chromatography （UPLC） fingerprint detection. Ultra-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry （UPLC-MS/MS） technology was used to determine the content of the index components in Naomaili granules and to evaluate the quality of different batches of Naomaili granules by chemometrics. LPS-induced BV-2 cell inflammation model was used to investigate the anti-neuroinflammatory effects of the water extract and main components of Naomaili granules. ResultsThe similarity of fingerprints of 27 batches of samples was > 0.90. A total of 32 common peaks were calibrated， and 23 of them were identified and assigned. In 27 batches of Naomaili granules， the mass fractions of 14 components that were stachydrine hydrochloride， leonurine hydrochloride， calycosin-7-O-glucoside， calycosin，tanshinoneⅠ， cryptotanshinone， tanshinoneⅡ_A， ginsenoside Rb₁， notoginsenoside R₁， ginsenoside Rg₁， paeoniflorin， albiflorin， lactiflorin， and salvianolic acid B were found to be 2.902-3.498， 0.233-0.343， 0.111-0.301， 0.07-0.152， 0.136-0.228， 0.195-0.390， 0.324-0.482， 1.056-1.435， 0.271-0.397， 1.318-1.649， 3.038-4.059， 2.263-3.455， 0.152-0.232， 2.931-3.991 mg∙g^-1， respectively. Multivariate statistical analysis showed that paeoniflorin， ginsenoside Rg₁， ginsenoside Rb₁ and staphylline hydrochloride were quality difference markers to control the stability of the preparation. The results of bioactive experiment showed that the water extract of Naomaili granules and the eight main components with high content in the prescription had a dose-dependent inhibitory effect on the release of NO in the cell supernatant. Among them， salvianolic acid B and ginsenoside Rb₁ had strong anti-inflammatory activity， with IC₅₀ values of （36.11±0.15） mg∙L^-1 and （27.24±0.54） mg∙L^-1， respectively. ConclusionThe quality evaluation method of Naomaili granules established in this study was accurate and reproducible. Four quality difference markers were screened out， and eight key pharmacodynamic substances of Naomaili granules against neuroinflammation were screened out by in vitro cell experiments.

Objective: To understand the impact of childhood trauma on psychological distress among upper grade elemetary school students, and to explore the mediating role of leisure activities in the relationship, so as to provide a basis for developing mental health intervention strategies. Methods: From August to November 2024, a combination of convenience sampling and stratified cluster random sampling was employed to recruit 1 373 fourth to sixth grade students from four primary schools in Harbin. The Childhood Trauma Questionnaire(CTQ), a self designed leisure activity scale (including active and passive leisure activities), and the Kessler Psychological Distress Scale (K10) were used to assess childhood trauma experiences, leisure activities, and levels of psychological distress. Spearman correlation analysis and linear regression analysis were conducted to explore the relationships among childhood trauma, leisure types, leisure time, and psychological distress. Based on the mediation analysis framework proposed by Hayes (Model 4), the mediating role of leisure types in the relationship between childhood trauma and psychological distress was examined. Results: Totally 19.1% of the upper elemetary school students exhibited psychological distress, while 30.2% had experienced childhood trauma. During school days, 64.6% of the students were reported of having leisure time concentrated between 1 and 5 hours per day, whereas 67.4% reported leisure time exceeding 5 hours per day on weekends. After controlling for potential demographic confounders such as gender, grade, ethnicity, household registration, being an only child, parents educational level, co residence, and whether parents are first time married,linear regression analysis showed that childhood trauma experience had positive predictive effect on psychological distress in upper primary school students( β =0.20, P <0.01). Leisure time showed no statistically significant association with psychological distress, both on school days ( β =-0.58 to -0.56) and weekends ( β =0.26- 0.98 )(all P >0.05). Active leisure activities were negatively associated with psychological distress ( β =-0.20), while passive leisure activities were positively associated with psychological distress ( β =0.29)(both P <0.01). Leisure type partially mediated the relationship between childhood trauma and psychological distress, accounting for 11.7% of the indirect effect. Conclusion Childhood trauma experiences positively predict psychological distress in upper elementary school students, and affect psychological distress through active leisure and passive leisure.

With the widespread application of chemotherapy, immunotherapy, and targeted therapy, cardiotoxicity associated with anti-tumor treatment has gained increasing attention. Drug-induced cardiac injury can significantly impact patients’ quality of life and may even limit the overall efficacy of anti-tumor therapy. The underlying mechanisms include oxidative stress, inflammatory responses, mitochondrial dysfunction, apoptosis, and immune dysregulation. Owing to multitarget effects, low toxicity, and holistic regulatory properties, Chinese traditional medicines have demonstrated considerable potential in cardioprotection. This review summarizes the principal mechanisms of drug-induced myocardial injury related to anti-tumor therapy and highlights recent advances in the prevention and treatment of cardiotoxicity using Chinese medical formulae, such as compound danshen dripping pills, nuanxinkang, qili qiangxin capsules, and shengmai powder, as well as their bioactive constituents. The cardioprotective effects of these agents are discussed in terms of their antioxidative, anti-inflammatory, immunomodulatory, and mitochondrial-protective actions. Furthermore, it highlights certain traditional medicines that exhibit unique advantages in synergistic cardioprotective and anti-tumor therapy. Future efforts should focus on well-designed, systematic clinical studies to facilitate the translational application of integrated Chinese and Western medicine in cardio-oncology.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effect of manual acupuncture manipulations (MAMs) on subcutaneous muscle tissue, by developing quantitative models of "lifting and thrusting" and "twisting and rotating", based on machine learning techniques. METHODS: A depth camera was used to capture the acupuncture operator's hand movements during "lifting and thrusting" and "twisting and rotating" of needle. Simultaneously, the ultrasound imaging was employed to record the muscle tissue responses of the participants. Amplitude and angular features were extracted from the movement data of operators, and muscle fascicle slope features were derived from the data of ultrasound images. The dynamic time warping barycenter averaging algorithm was adopted to align the dual-source data. Various machine learning techniques were applied to build quantitative models, and the performance of each model was compared. The most optimal model was further analyzed for its interpretability. RESULTS: Among the quantitative models built for the two types of MAMs, the random forest model demonstrated the best performance. For the quantitative model of the "lifting and thrusting" technique, the coefficient of determination (R²) was 0.825. For the "twisting and rotating" technique, R² reached 0.872. CONCLUSION Machine learning can be used to effectively develop the models and quantify the effects of MAMs on subcutaneous muscle tissue. It provides a new perspective to understand the mechanism of acupuncture therapy and lays a foundation for optimizing acupuncture technology and designing personalized treatment regimen in the future.

Objective:To study the epidemic characteristics and clinical symptoms of patients with Hashimoto's thyroiditis (HT) in Shandong Province, and to provide a basis for further optimizing the clinical treatment strategies for HT.Methods:Data on HT patients admitted to Shandong Provincial Center for Disease Control and Prevention from January 2018 to December 2023 were collected. A retrospective analysis was conducted to analyze their epidemiological characteristics, clinical symptoms, and auxiliary examination results.Results:A total of 192 HT patients' data were included, comprising 42 males (21.87%) and 150 females (78.13%). The average age of patients was 40.38 years old, ranging from 9 to 74 years old. Most patients resided in urban areas (129 cases, 67.19%). HT cases occurred throughout the year in every mouth, with higher incidence in June (32 cases, 16.7%) and July (20 cases, 10.4%), lower incidence in March (8 cases, 4.2%) and April (10 cases, 5.2%), and sporadic cases in other months. Based on clinical manifestations, among all HT patients, there were 66 cases (34.38%) of Hashitoxicosis type, 11 cases (5.73%) of pseudothyrotoxicosis type, 7 cases (3.65%) of exophthalmic type, 5 cases (2.60%) of subacute thyroiditis-like type, 3 cases (1.56%) of juvenile type, 35 cases (18.23%) of fibrous type, 39 cases (20.31%) of thyroid adenoma or carcinoma type, and 26 cases (13.54%) of other autoimmune diseases type. Based on disease progression, among all HT patients, there were 61 cases (31.77%) in the hyperthyroid phase, 16 cases (8.33%) in the hyperthyroid-hypothyroid coexisting phase, and 115 cases (59.90%) in the hypothyroid phase. Based on clinical symptoms, among all HT patients,there were 78 cases(40.62%) of neck mass symptoms, 101 cases (52.60%) of digestive system symptoms, and 95 cases (49.48%) of low metabolic symptoms. Laboratory tests revealed that 144 cases had elevated levels of both thyroglobulin antibody and thyroid peroxidase antibody. Color ultrasound examination showed strip-like echoes in the thyroid in 99 cases (51.56%) and grid-like echoes in 43 cases (22.40%). After treatment with antithyroid drugs or appropriate thyroid hormone supplementation, all 192 HT patients experienced symptom relief.Conclusions:HT patients in Shandong Province were predominantly female and urban residents. Common clinical symptoms included anterior neck swelling, constipation, fever, and weight gain. Early detection, diagnosis, and treatment could delay disease progression.

This study was aimed at investigating the prevalence of Dabie bandavirus(DBV)infection in suspected cases of se-vere fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome(SFTS)and tick specimens in Cangzhou City from 2023 to 2024,and providing scientific basis for the prevention,control and pathogen surveillance of SFTS in this area.Pathogen detection and virus isolation were performed on suspected SFTS cases and tick specimens collected in Cangzhou City from 2023 to 2024.The next-generation sequencing technol-ogy was used to conduct whole-genome sequencing of DBV.A phylogenetic tree was constructed using software such as MEGA,DNA Star,and homology comparison and amino acid variation site analysis were carried out.Among the 70 suspected SFTS cases,the DBV positive detection rate was 60%(42/70).The positive cases were mainly farmers aged 50-79,concentrated in Yanshan County and Haixing County.402 ticks were pooled into 31 sample tubes,among which 2 tubes tested positive for DBV nucleic acid,with a mini-mum infection rate of 0.50%.A total of 9 human-derived and 2 tick-derived DBV strains were isolated.The whole-genome sequencing results showed that all strains clustered within the F branch,with sequences homology exceeding 99%.There were a total of 10 amino acid variation sites in the RdRP,GP and NSs sequences.Therefore,the distribution of SFTS cases in Cangzhou City exhibited regional clustering.The overall level of DBV infection in ticks in this region was relatively low.It is recommended to further improve the disease early warning mechanism and continue to conduct pathogen surveillance.
