This paper systematically reviewed the concept of authentication studies on traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） classics and the research achievements of scholars across historical and contemporary periods. We categorized the authentication studies on TCM classics into four types， including work-oriented authentication research， metho-dological studies on authentication， extended authentication research， and single-book authentication. Multiple methods were applied comprehensively， including investigating bibliographic documents of successive dynasties， analyzing the academic contents of medical books， studying the textual characteristics of medical books， examining the cited references in medical books， verifying the biographies of authors， and analyzing the interpolations and accretions in medical books， to distinguish the authenticity of TCM classics. The academic value of authenticity identification of TCM classics is concluded in three aspects，i.e. it serves as an important means to distinguish authenticity from falsehood in TCM classics， an important guarantee for inheriting the essence of TCM literature， and a key to unlocking the academic treasure trove of TCM classics and achieving inheritance-based innovation， which will lay a solid documentary foundation for constructing identification methodologies and standardized systems.

Objective To analyze the global pattern, long-term trends, and regional and population heterogeneity in the burden of 375 diseases and injuries and 88 risk factors from 1990 to 2023 using data from the Global Burden of Disease Study 2023 (GBD 2023). Methods Publicly available GBD 2023 estimates were extracted for incidence, deaths, years of life lost (YLLs), years lived with disability (YLDs), disability-adjusted life years (DALYs), and age-standardized rates at the global level and by socio-demographic index (SDI), GBD region, age group, and sex. Descriptive analysis, ranking comparison, stratified analysis, and trend analysis were performed, and 95% uncertainty interval was used to assess the stability of estimates. Results In 2023, non-communicable diseases were the leading contributor to global DALYs, accounting for 64.39% of DALYs across the three major disease and injury groups (communicable, maternal, neonatal, and nutritional diseases, non-communicable diseases, and injuries), and also had the highest age-standardized DALYs rate. From 1990 to 2023, age-standardized DALYs rates declined for three major disease and injury groups, with estimated annual percentage changes of −2.69%, −0.78%, and −1.47%, respectively. Cardiovascular diseases ranked first by both DALYs and deaths in 2023, whereas respiratory infections and tuberculosis ranked first by incidence. Non-communicable diseases were the leading cause of disease burden across all SDI strata. As the SDI level declined, the burden of communicable, maternal, neonatal, and nutritional diseases, as well as injuries, increased markedly. Behavioral and metabolic risks remained the main contributors to attributable deaths and DALYs. Conclusion From 1990 to 2023, the global burden of disease continues to shift toward non-communicable diseases; however, some regions still face a double burden of infectious, maternal and child, injury-related, and chronic diseases. Integrating deaths, DALYs, YLLs, YLDs, and risk-attributable burden helps identify priority areas for prevention and resource allocation across regions and populations.

Objective:To identify different subtypes of patients with preeclampsia(PE)through clinical liver function index data-driven the cluster analysis,to explore the correlation between liver function of different sub-types and pregnancy complications.Methods:From January 2012 to December 2022,the general data of 2230 sin-gleton pregnant women with PE who underwent prenatal examination and delivered in Fujian Maternity and Child Health Hospital were collected.Using 13 liver function indexes before delivery as baseline variables,all included subjects were classified into subtypes by cluster method.The clinical characteristics of different subtypes of PE patients were compared.Single-factor Logistic regression was used to analyze the risk of pregnancy complications among subtypes.Results:PE patients were divided into 3 subgroups that represented different characteristics of patients' liver function.The first subtype(n=1065)exhibited abnormal liver enzymology index characterized by in-creased alkaline phosphatase(ALP)level.The second subtype(n=648)showed abnormal bilirubin metabolism index with the highest levels of total bilirubin(TBIL),direct(DBIL)and indirect bilirubin(IBIL).The third subtype(n=517)had abnormal liver enzymology indexes with elevated alanine aminotransferase(ALT)and aspartate aminotransferase(AST)levels,abnormal bile acid detection indexes with elevated total bile acid(TBA)levels,and abnormal liver synthesis function indexes with decreased total protein(TP),albumin(ALB),and globulin lev-els(GLB).Significant differences were observed among the three subtypes in age,severe PE,anemia,cardiac dysfunction,and renal dysfunction(P＜0.05).Single-factor Logistic regression demonstrated that the third sub-type had significantly higher risks of intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy,fetal growth restriction,premature rup-ture of membranes,and preterm birth compared to the first and second subtypes(P＜0.05),as well as a higher risk of placental abruption than the second subtype(P＜0.05).The first subtype had higher risks of placental ab-ruption and fetal growth restriction than the second subtype(P＜0.05).Conclusions:Cluster analysis could be used to subclassify PE patients by liver function characteristics,so as to identify the occurrence of pregnancy complications.The results had significance for understanding the heterogeneity of PE and promoting individualized management.

Objective:To summarize the clinical and genetic characteristics of patients with neurodevelopmental disorder with or without variable brain abnormalities (NEDBA) caused by MAPK8IP3 gene variation. Methods:The clinical data and genetic testing results of 2 children with NEDBA treated in Henan Children′s Hospital from August 2019 to January 2022 were collected retrospectively. Literature was searched and reviewed from China National Knowledge Infrastructure, Wanfang Data Knowledge Service Platform, PubMed database and OMIM database (up to October 2024) with" MAPK8IP3 gene ""NEDBA ""neurodevelopmental disorders "as the search terms. The main clinical genetic characteristics of NEDBA caused by MAPK8IP3 gene variation were summarized. Results:The 2 children, a boy aged 1 year and 8 months and a girl aged 1 year and 4 months, both showed global developmental delay and the onset of the disease in infancy. The de novo heterozygous mutation c.1732C>T(p.Arg578Cys) of the MAPK8IP3 gene was detected by whole-exome sequencing. Case 1 was followed up to 3 years and 10 months old, who had severe developmental delay and was accompanied by hip subluxation and strephexopodia. Literature search retrieved 0 Chinese literature and 2 English literatures. A total of 18 patients including 2 cases reported in this study were identified as NEDBA caused by MAPK8IP3 gene variations, including 16 cases with missense mutations and 2 cases with truncation mutations. Among them, 7 patients carried c.1732C>T(p.Arg578Cys) and 5 patients carried c.3436C>T(p.Arg1146Cys). The main clinical manifestations of the 18 patients included developmental delay/intellectual disability (18 cases), poor or absent speech (11 cases), abnormal neurological examination (10 cases: 6 with spastic paraplegia, 2 with spasticity, 2 with ataxia, 1 with unstable gait), hypotonia (10 cases), skeletal malformations (10 cases: 4 with short stature, 3 with scoliosis, 1 with 5th finger clinodactyly and brachydactylky, 1 with flat-valgus feet, 1 with hip subluxation), seizures (3 cases), left hearing loss (1 case), myopic astigmatism and pseudostrabismus (1 case), abnormal brain magnetic resonance imaging (15 cases). Conclusions:Patients with NEDBA is usually characterized by global developmental delay apparent from infancy or early childhood, resulting in language and motor disorders. Additional features may include hypotonia, spasticity, skeletal malformations and abnormal brain magnetic resonance imaging. Currently, missense variations are frequent among the heterozygous MAPK8IP3 genotypes, among which c.1732C>T(p.Arg578Cys) and c.3436C>T(p.Arg1146Cys) are considered hot spot variations.

Objective:To report the nationwide surveillance results of pathogenic profiles and antimicrobial resistance patterns of Gram-positive bloodstream infections in China in 2023.Methods:The clinical isolates of Gram-posttive bacteria from blood cultures were collected in member hospitals of National Bloodstream Infection Bacterial Resistant Investigation Collaborative System（BRICS）during January to December 2023. Antimicrobial susceptibility testing was performed using the dilution method recommended by the Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute（CLSI）. Statistical analyses were conducted using WHONET 5.6 and SPSS 25.0 software.Results:A total of 4 385 Gram-positive bacterial isolates were obtained from 60 participating center. The top five pathogens were Staphylococcus aureus（ n=1 544，35.2%），coagulase-negative Staphylococci（ n=1 441，32.9%）， Enterococcus faecium（ n=574，13.1%）， Enterococcus faecalis（ n=385，8.8%），and α-hemolytic Streptococci（ n=187，4.3%）. The prevalence of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus（MRSA）and methicillin-resistant coagulase-negative Staphylococci（MRCNS）was 26.2%（405/1 544）and 69.8%（1 006/1 441），respectively. Notably，all Staphylococci remained susceptible to glycopeptide or daptomycin. Staphylococcus aureus demonstrated excellent susceptibility（>97.0%）to cephalobiol，rifampicin，trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole，linezolid，minocycline，tigecycline，and eravacycline. No Enterococcus exhibiting resistance to linezolid were detected. Glycopeptide resistance was uncommon but more frequent in Enterococcus faecium（resistance to vancomycin and teicoplanin：both 1.7%）compared to Enterococcus faecalis（both 0.3%）. The detection rates of MRSA and MRCNS exhibited significant regional variations across the country（ χ2=17.674 and 148.650，respectively，both P<0.001）. No vancomycin-resistant Enterococci were detected in central China. Institutional comparison demonstrated higher prevalence of MRSA（ χ2=14.111， P<0.001）and MRCNS（ χ2=4.828， P=0.028）in provincial hospitals than that in municipal hospitals. Socioeconomic analysis identified elevated detection rates of both MRSA（ χ2=18.986， P<0.001）and MRCNS（ χ2=4.477， P=0.034）in less developed regions（per capita GDP

Objective:To report the results of bacterial resistant investigation collaborative system（BRICS）on the distribution and antimicrobial resistance profile of clinical Gram-negative bacteria isolates from bloodstream infections in China in 2023，and provide reference for clinical tretment of bloodstream infections and prevention and control of bacterial resistance.Methods:The clinical isolates of Gram-negative bacteria from blood cultures in member hospitals of BRICS were collected during January 2023 to December 2023. Antibiotic susceptibility tests were conducted by agar dilution or broth dilution methods recommended by Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute（CLSI）. WHONET 5.6 and SPSS 25.0 were used to analyze the data.Results:During the study period，11 492 strains of Gram-negative bacteria were collected from 60 hospitals，of which 10 098（87.9%）were Enterobacterales and 1 394（12.1%）were non-fermentative bacteria. The top 5 bacterial species were Escherichia coli（50.0%）， Klebsiella pneumoniae（26.1%）， Pseudomonas aeruginosa（5.1%）， Acinetobacter baumannii complex（5.0%）and Enterobacter cloacae complex（4.1%）. The ESBL-producing rates in Escherichia coli， Klebsiella pneumoniae and Proteus mirablilis were 46.8%（2 685/5 741），18.3%（549/2 999）and 44.0%（77/175），respectively. The prevalence of carbapenem-resistant Escherichia coli（CREC）and carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae（CRKP）were 1.3%（76/5 741）and 15.0%（450/2 999）；32.9%（25/76）and 78.0%（351/450）of CREC and CRKP were sensitive to ceftazidime/avibactam combination，respectively. 94.7%（72/76）and 90.2%（406/450）of CREC and CRKP were sensitive to aztreonam/avibactam combination. Furthermore，57.9%（44/76）and 79.1%（356/450）were sensitive to imipenem/relebactam combination. The prevalence of carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii（CRAB）complex was 64.6%（370/573），while more than 80.0% of CRAB complex was sensitive to tigecycline，eravacycline and polymyxin B. The prevalence of carbapenem-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa（CRPA）was 17.0%（99/581）. There were differences in the composition ratio of Gram-negative bacteria in bloodstream infections and the prevalence of important Gram-negative bacteria resistance among different regions in China，with statistically significant differences in the prevalence of CREC，CRKP，CRPA and CRAB complex（ χ2=10.6，28.6，10.8 and 19.3， P<0.05）. The prevalence of ESBL-producing Escherichia coli， CREC，CRAB complex and CRKP were higher in provincial hospitals than those in municipal hospitals（ χ2=12.5，9.8，12.7 and 57.8，all P<0.01）. Conclusions:Gram-negative bacteria are the main pathogens causing bloodstream infections in China，and Escherichia coli is ranked in the top，while the trend of Klebsiella pneumoniae increases continuously with time. CRKP infection shows a slow upward trend，CREC infecton maintains a low prevalence level，and CRAB complex infection continues to exhibit a high prevalence rate. The composition and resistance patterns of pathogens causing bloodstream infections vary to some extent across different regions and levels of hospitals in China.

ObjectiveTo sum up the clinical features of 5α-reductase type 2 deficiency （5α-RD2） complicated by central precocious puberty （CPP）， and provide experience for clinicians. MethodsA retrospective review was conducted of child patients with 5α-RD2 followed up to puberty at a single tertiary pediatric center， in whom 6 cases developed CRP. Clinical characteristics and treatment history of them were analyzed. A literature review was also performed to investigate possible mechanisms underlying the co-occurrence of 5α-RD2 and CPP. ResultsThe median age at initial presentation was 5.55 years （IQR 3.50-7.20）. Common clinical features included micropenis and hypospadias. Median stretched penile length （SPL） was 2.25 cm （IQR 1.8-2.8）， with an SPL-SDS of -4.5 （IQR -3.1 to -5.8）. Median external masculinization score （EMS） and Prader scores were 8.5 （IQR 5.0-9.0） and 4.5 （IQR 3.0-5.0）， respectively. Pubertal onset occurred at a median age of 8.70 years （IQR 7.80-9.00）. Three patients were overweight or obese. Five had received 2.5% dihydrotestosterone （DHT） gel prior to pubertal onset， with a median cumulative dose of 205.5 mg/kg （IQR 72.0-660.3 mg/kg） with DHT gel therapy. Notably， one patient with normal body mass index （BMI） and no history of androgen or gonadotropin therapy also exhibited early pubertal onset at 8.4 years. ConclusionCPP in children with 5α-RD2 may be associated with prior dihydrotestosterone （DHT） gel therapy and elevated BMI； however， a potential intrinsic link to the underlying disorder cannot be excluded. Further studies are needed to elucidate the pathophysiological mechanisms.
