With the continuous development of society, a large number of new chemicals are continuously emerging, which presents a challenge to current risk assessment and safety management of chemicals. Traditional toxicology research methods have certain limitations in quickly, efficiently, and accurately assessing the toxicity of many chemicals, and cannot meet the actual needs. In response to this challenge, computational toxicology that use mathematical and computer models to achieve the prediction of chemical toxicity has emerged. In the meantime, as researchers increasingly pay attention to understanding the interaction mechanisms between exogenous chemical substances and the body from the system level, and multiomics technologies develop rapidly such as genomics, transcriptomics, proteomics, and metabolomics, huge amounts of data have been generated, providing rich information resources for studying the interactions between chemical substances and biological molecules. System toxicology and network toxicology have also developed accordingly. Of these, network toxicology can integrate these multiomics data to construct biomolecular networks, and then quickly predict the key toxicological targets and pathways of chemicals at the molecular level. This paper outlined the concept and development of network toxicology, summarized the main methods and supporting tools of network toxicology research, expounded the application status of network toxicology in studying potential toxicity of exogenous chemicals such as agricultural chemicals, environmental pollutants, industrial chemicals, and foodborne chemicals, and analyzed the development prospects and limitations of network toxicology research. This paper aimed to provide a reference for the application of network toxicology in other fields.

OBJECTIVE To systematically evaluate the methodological quality of the postoperative chemotherapy guidelines/ consensuses for ovarian epithelial tumor. METHODS A search was conducted across databases including PubMed， Embase， Web of Science， CBM， VIP， Chinese Medical Journal Data， Wanfang Data， and CNKI， as well as the official websites of GIN， NICE， Medlive， AHRQ， CSCO， ASCO， and NCCN. The search period was from the establishment of the databases/websites to March 10， 2025. The quality of the included guidelines/consensus was evaluated by using the AGREE-Ⅱ tool. RESULTS A total of 16 guidelines/consensuses were included. The domain scores of AGREE-Ⅱ evaluation were as follows： scope and purpose of 85.07%， participants of 47.92%， rigor of development of 57.49%， clarity of presentation of 88.02%， applicability of 8.20%， and independence of 53.39%. Among them， 14 were recommended at grade B and 2 were recommended at grade C. The subgroup analysis by different countries/regions and different types of studies showed that the scores for participants， rigor of development， and independence of the guidelines/consensuses in China were significantly lower than foreign countries （P＜0.05）； the scores for participants and rigor of development of the guidelines were significantly higher than consensuses （P＜0.05）. The guideline/ consensus recommendation results indicated that grade B guidelines/consensus recommend platinum-based combination chemotherapy as the preferred adjuvant chemotherapy regimen for stage Ⅰ high-grade serous carcinoma patients；platinum-based combination chemotherapy±bevacizumab was recommended as the preferred adjuvant chemotherapy regimen for stage Ⅱ-Ⅳ high- grade serous carcinoma patients and for platinum-sensitive recurrent high-grade serous carcinoma patients； non-platinum single- agent chemotherapy±bevacizumab was recommended as the preferred chemotherapy regimen for platinum-resistant recurrent high- grade serous carcinoma patients. CONCLUSIONS The overall quality of postoperative chemotherapy guidelines/consensuses for ovarian epithelial tumor is not high. The methodological quality of guidelines/consensuses in China is still lagging behind that of foreign countries. The recommendations differ from those in foreign countries. It is recommended to improve the aspects of participants， rigor of development， and independence， to recommend treatment plans based on the different stages of ovarian cancer， and develop guidelines/consensuses that align with China’s national conditions.

Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have been widely used in the treatment of various autoimmune and inflammation-related diseases due to their potent immunomodulatory properties. Several studies have demonstrated that MSC-mediated immunomodulation is complex and bidirectional, with the in vivo microenvironment influencing the direction of this modulation. Indoleamine-2,3-dioxygenase (IDO), an immunosuppressive factor, has been identified as a key "switch" in the immunomodulatory role of MSCs. In this review, we explore how IDO functions as a critical regulator of MSC immunoregulatory plasticity. We delve into the mechanisms by which changes in IDO expression affect the function of various immune cells, summarize relevant research and clinical advances regarding the role of IDO expression in MSC-based therapies for various diseases, and discuss potential therapeutic strategies that target IDO to enhance the stability of MSC therapeutic effects. This provides a theoretical foundation for optimizing MSCs as safer and more effective clinical therapeutic agents.

Objective:To explore the mediating effect of illness acceptance between self-compassion and rehabilitation motivation in stroke patients with partial disability.Methods:By convenience sampling method, stroke patients who attended the neurology outpatient clinic of Xinxiang Central Hospital from February to December 2024 were selected as the research subjects. The General Information Questionnaire, Self-Compassion Scale (SCS), Chinese version of Acceptance of Illness Scale (AIS-CHI), and Stroke Rehabilitation Motivation Scale (SRMS) were used for the survey. Pearson correlation analysis was applied to analyze the relationships among self-compassion, illness acceptance, and rehabilitation motivation. AMOS 21.0 software was used to establish a structural equation model and verify the mediating effect.Results:A total of 300 questionnaires were distributed, and 289 valid ones were recovered, with an effective recovery rate of 96.33%. Among the 289 stroke patients with partial disability, the total score of SCS was (65.73±5.50), the total score of AIS-CHI was (17.46±5.62), and the total score of SRMS was (77.18±10.97). Pairwise positive correlations were found between self-compassion, illness acceptance, and rehabilitation motivation (all P<0.05). Self-compassion had a direct positive effect on rehabilitation motivation ( β=0.328, P<0.01) and a direct positive effect on illness acceptance ( β=0.439, P<0.01). Illness acceptance played a partial mediating role between self-compassion and rehabilitation motivation, and the mediating effect accounted for 31.38% of the total effect (0.150/0.478) . Conclusions:The levels of self-compassion, illness acceptance, and rehabilitation motivation in stroke patients with partial disability need to be further improved. Illness acceptance exerts a partial mediating effect between self-compassion and rehabilitation motivation. Clinically, the rehabilitation motivation of patients can be enhanced by improving their levels of self-compassion and illness acceptance.

Objective:To evaluate the reliability and validity of the Chinese version of Consultation and Relational Empathy (CARE) Measure in the Mandarin speaking population.Methods:From March to June 2018, patient interviews and expert consultations were conducted to explore problems of CARE in Mandarin context and preliminary revisions were made to the measure, then the final adapted tool was developed. A questionnaire survey on the validity of the measure was conducted from July to August 2018, among 373 patients from three community health service centers in Beijing Chaoyang District, selected by convenience sampling. The questionnaire included general information of participants and the revised CARE measure. The results of the survey were analyzed for the reliability and validity of Chinese version of CARE measure.Results:In the culture adaptation stage, 30 word-changes and 13 phrase-changes were made to improve the cultural adaptation of CARE. A total of 373 valid questionnaires were were collected with a valid recovery rate of 100.0%. The participants had a mean age of (60.8±13.12) years, with females of 68.6% (256/373), junior high school or high school education of 58.7% (219/373), and retirees of 71.3% (266/373). The results showed that there was a significant difference in scores of each item between the high group (top 27%) and the low group (bottom 27%) ( P<0.001). There was a positive correlation between each item and the total score, with a correlation coefficient between 0.817 and 0.868 ( P<0.001). The reliability analysis results show that the Cronbach′s α of the revised CARE was 0.960. In the content validity analysis, among the 10 items, the proportion of patients who considered the item "not applicable" was between 1.1% and 4.8%, and the proportion who considered the item "important" was between 92.8% and 96.2%. In exploratory factor analysis, KMO=0.944 and Bartlett′s sphericity test P<0.001. One common factor with an eigenvalue>1 was extracted, and the cumulative variance explained by which was 73.85%, with the load value of each item of 0.815-0.909. Conclusion:The revised Chinese version of CARE measure shows good reliability and validity and it can be applied in primary care settings for Mandarin speaking population.

OBJECTIVE: To explore the clinical phenotypes and genetic characteristics of a child with Acid-labile subunit deficiency (ALS). METHODS: A male child diagnosed with ALS at Dongguan Maternal and Child Health Care Hospital in March 2021 was selected as the study subject. Clinical data of his family was collected. Peripheral blood samples were collected from the child and his parents. Following extraction of genomic DNA, whole-exome sequencing (WES) was carried out, and Sanger sequencing was used for family verification of candidate variants. Based on guidelines from the American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics (ACMG), the pathogenicity of the candidate variant was classified. This study was approved by the Medical Ethics Committee of the hospital (Ethics No.: 2020-6). RESULTS: The patient, a 5-year-and-7-month-old boy, presented with short stature and delayed bone age. Endocrine examinations showed decreased serum concentrations of insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) and IGF binding protein-3 (IGFBP3). WES revealed that he has harbored compound heterozygous variants of the IGFALS gene, namely c.741_742del, p.Y248Pfs83 and c.272del, p.P91Rfs31. Sanger sequencing verified that the variants were inherited from his father and mother, respectively. According to the ACMG guidelines, c.741_742del, p.Y248Pfs83 and c.272del, p.P91Rfs31 variants were classified as likely pathogenic (PVS1+PM2_supporting). Based on the pre-set literature search strategy, 11 research literature on ALS were retrieved, which involved a total of 33 families and 62 patients. Combined with the patient in this study, 31 IGFALS gene variants were identified among the 63 patients, which mainly consisted of missense variants (20 types), with variant sites concentrated in exon 2. The main clinical features were short stature in conjunct with delayed puberty, with a significant genotype-phenotype correlation. CONCLUSION The IGFALS gene variants NM_004970.2: c.741_742del, p.Y248Pfs83 and c.272del, p.P91Rfs31 may be the genetic etiology in this family. This study has expanded the variant spectrum of the IGFALS gene and provided valuable information for the diagnosis, genetic counseling and clinical treatment of the disease.
