Objective:
To explore the effect of a computer assisted audiovisual combined intervention model on the core symptoms of children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD), in order to provide references for enriching intervention and treatment methods for ASD children.
Methods:
From December 2023 to March 2024, 36 ASD children aged 4-8 years were recruited from Tianjin Disabled Persons Rehabilitation Center and Xinxinyu Children s Rehabilitation Center, and were divided into a training group (22 cases) and a control group (14 cases). The training group completed a 12 week audiovisual training course (visual sessions:twice a week, for 50-60 minutes each session; auditory sessions:three times a week, for 15 minutes each time), while the control group received only conventional treatment interventions. Before and after the intervention, the core symptoms of ASD children were assessed using the Short Sensory Profile (SSP), Social Responsiveness Scale (SRS), and Repetitive Behavior Questionnaire-2 ( RBQ- 2). Eye tracking experiments were used to test preferences for social attention.
Results:
Before the intervention, there were no statistically significant differences in the total scores and factor scores of the SSP and RBQ-2 scales between the two groups ( t =-1.63, 0.38, both P >0.05). The SRS total score, social communication, and restricted interests and repetitive behavior factor scores of the training group (90.68±25.83, 33.36±11.80, 15.64±7.00) were significantly higher than those of the control group (72.29±19.84, 24.93±7.85, 10.21±5.67) ( t =2.27, 2.36, 2.43, all P <0.05). Children in the training group with higher social communication factor scores before the intervention scored lower than the control group at the post intervention test (simple slope=-14.17, t =-2.48, P = 0.02), while there was no statistically significant difference in post intervention scores between children with lower social communication factor scores before the intervention and the control group (simple slope=2.31, t =0.57, P >0.05). Eye tracking experiments showed that the total fixation time on geometric images decreased significantly more in the training group [ -4.56 (-11.42, 1.21)] compared to the control group [6.55 (-0.32, 16.53)] after the intervention ( Z=2.48, P <0.05).
Conclusions
The computer assisted audiovisual intervention model can effectively improve the core symptoms of ASD children with poorer social communication levels. The promotion of the intervention model needs to consider individual differences in ASD.

ObjectiveProtein-protein interactions (PPIs) are fundamental to the execution of biological functions within living cells. However, traditional biochemical methods, such as co-immunoprecipitation (Co-IP), often fail to capture transient, weak, or membrane-associated interactions due to the stringent detergent requirements for cell lysis. Proximity labeling (PL) has emerged in recent years as a transformative technology for mapping the proteomes of specific subcellular compartments and identifying dynamic interactomes in situ. Golgi protein 73 (GP73, also known as GOLPH2), a resident type II Golgi transmembrane protein, is a well-recognized clinical biomarker for liver diseases, including hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Despite its clinical significance, the comprehensive physiological and pathological functions of GP73 remain partially understood. This study aims to establish an APEX2-mediated proximity labeling system specifically targeting GP73 to map its interactome in a living cellular environment, thereby providing new insights into its molecular roles and regulatory mechanisms. MethodsTo achieve spatial specificity, we first constructed a stable cell line expressing a fusion protein consisting of GP73 and the engineered soybean peroxidase APEX2. The localization of the GP73-APEX2 fusion protein was validated to ensure it correctly targeted the Golgi apparatus. The proximity labeling reaction was initiated by incubating the cells with biotin-phenol (BP) for 30 min, followed by a brief (1 min) treatment with1 mmol/L hydrogen peroxide (H2O2). This catalytic reaction converts BP into highly reactive, short-lived biotin-phenoxyl radicals that covalently attach to endogenous proteins within a small labeling radius of the GP73-APEX2 enzyme. Subsequently, the cells were quenched, and biotinylated proteins were enriched using high-affinity streptavidin-coated magnetic beads. The captured “neighbor” proteins were subjected to on-bead digestion and analyzed via liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) for high-throughput identification. Rigorous bioinformatics analysis, including Gene Ontology (GO) enrichment, Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway analysis, and protein-protein interaction network mapping, was performed to interpret the biological significance of the identified candidates. ResultsOur results demonstrate the successful establishment of a robust and sensitive APEX2-based proximity labeling system for GP73. We identified a total of 95 high-confidence interacting proteins that were significantly enriched in the GP73 proximity proteome compared to control groups. Bioinformatics analysis revealed that these interactors were predominantly associated with biological processes such as vesicular transport, protein localization, and, most notably, molecular functions related to “ribosome binding” and “translation regulation”. This suggested an unexpected role for the Golgi-resident GP73 in the cellular translation machinery. To validate these findings, we performed targeted biochemical assays which confirmed a direct interaction between GP73 and the subunits of the eukaryotic translation initiation factor 3 (eIF3) complex, specifically EIF3G and EIF3I. Furthermore, functional validation using the surface sensing of translation (SUnSET) assay—a non-radioactive method to monitor protein synthesis—revealed that the overexpression of GP73 significantly promoted global protein translation levels in the cell, whereas its depletion or inhibition resulted in reduced translation efficiency. ConclusionThis study successfully utilized APEX2-mediated proximity labeling to provide the first systematic map of GP73 interactome in living cells. Our findings uncover a novel, unconventional function of GP73 as a regulator of cellular protein translation, likely mediated through its interaction with the eIF3 complex. This discovery significantly broadens our understanding of the biological roles of GP73 beyond its traditional function in the Golgi apparatus and suggests that it may act as a bridge between Golgi-related trafficking and the protein synthesis machinery. Furthermore, the technical framework established in this study provides a valuable template for investigating other complex organelle-associated protein networks and resolving transient macromolecular interactions in various physiological and pathological contexts.

Objective To investigate the therapeutic effect of Huangkui capsules on targeted drug-related proteinuria in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on clinical data of HCC patients with targeted drug-related proteinuria from June 2023 to December 2024 at Zhongshan Hospital, Fudan University. According to the treatment plan, patients were divided into the conventional treatment group and the Huangkui combination treatment group (Huangkui capsules combined with conventional treatment), and the clinical efficacy between the two groups was compared. The logistic regression analysis was used to identify the main factors affecting treatment efficacy. Results The Huangkui combination treatment group (n=29) showed a significantly higher overall effective rate (79.3% vs 42.3%, P=0.005), and an earlier proteinuria improvement (median time: 3 months vs 6 months, P=0.008) than the conventional treatment group (n=26) . The multivariate logistic regression analysis showed angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor (ACEI) or angiotensin Ⅱ receptor blocker (ARB) using (OR=0.190, 95%CI 0.045-0.808, P=0.025), targeted drug adjustment (OR=0.132, 95%CI 0.030-0.581, P=0.007), and Huangkui capsules using (OR=0.168, 95%CI 0.039-0.730, P=0.017) were protective factors for treatment efficacy of targeted drug-related proteinuria. Conclusions On the basis of conventional treatment, additive treatment with Huangkui capsules can alleviate targeted drug-related proteinuria faster and more effectively in HCC patients.

This article systematically reviews the current research status as well as diagnosis and treatment strategies of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) for gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). Studies demonstrate that TCM, based on the "disease-syndrome combination" approach, exhibits multi-target advantages in alleviating symptoms of various GERD subtypes, promoting mucosal repair, regulating emotions, and facilitating the reduction of western medication. To address clinical challenges such as symptom overlap and limited therapeutic efficacy, strategies have been proposed including "treating different diseases with the same method" and integrated regulation based on viscera correlation. Future efforts should focus on elucidating the mechanisms of compound prescriptions, promoting TCM drug development under the "three-combination" evaluation framework that integrates TCM theory, human experience and clinical trial evidence, and optimizing integrated traditional and western medicine models to enhance GERD management.

Lung cancer constitutes the most prevalent and lethal malignant tumor in China. Approximately 85% of lung cancer diagnoses correspond to the non-small cell histological subtype [non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC)]. Despite surgery being the mainstay for early-stage disease, postoperative recurrence remains high and adjuvant chemotherapy offers limited benefit. In recent years, targeted therapy has demonstrated substantial advantages in driver mutation-positive NSCLC. To this end, the Lung Cancer Medical Education Committee of the Chinese Medical Education Association developed guidelines based on a systematic review of evidence through November 2025, using the Grading of Recommendations, Assessment, Development and Evaluations (GRADE) approach and a modified Delphi method. Focusing on epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) and anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK), and addressing ROS proto-oncogene 1 (ROS1), B-Raf proto-oncogene serine/threonine kinase (BRAF) V600E mutation, and mesenchymal-epithelial transition factor (MET) exon 14 (METex14) skipping, the guideline covers molecular testing, neoadjuvant/adjuvant therapy, perioperative strategies, minimal residual disease monitoring, and postoperative surveillance. It defines testing requirements, specifies stage-directed and subtype-specific treatments, and standardizes minimal residual disease monitoring. These recommendations emphasize precision and feasibility to improve survival and quality of life.

Objective To understand the distribution, species composition, seasonal fluctuations, and presence of Dabie bandavirus in ticks in Tai'an City, providing a basis for assessing tick-borne disease risks and formulating prevention strategies. Methods Free-living ticks were monitored using the flagging method, whereas parasitic ticks were monitored through host surface examination. Reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) was used to detect the presence of Bandavirus dabieense in tick specimens. Results The density of free-living ticks in Tai'an City showed a continuous decreasing trend over the 3 years from 2021 to 2023, with an average tick density of 0.43 ticks/(flag·100 m). The dominant habitats were scenic areas and forests, and the seasonal fluctuations exhibited a bimodal pattern, peaking in March and August. The only free-living tick species captured was Haemaphysalis longicornis. Over the 3 years, the average tick index for parasitic ticks was 1.85, with sheep as the primary host. Seasonal fluctuations also followed a bimodal pattern, peaking in March and August. The primary parasitic tick species captured were H. longicornis and Rhipicephalus sanguineus. No Dabie bandavirus was detected in the tick specimens. Conclusions Tick density in Tai'an City remains relatively high, necessitating continued efforts to enhance tick surveillance and implement targeted prevention measures in rural environments to further reduce the health risks posed by tick-borne diseases.

This article explores the pathogenesis , evolution and the prevention-treatment strategies of hypertension-related coronary microvascular dysfunction (H-CMD) from the collateral disease theory. Long-term hypertension may lead to coronary microvascular vasomotor imbalance, endothelial injury, vascular remodeling, microthrombosis, reduced perfusion reserve, and microvascular rarefaction, suggesting a progressive pathological process from functional disturbance to structural injury, collateral obstruction, and insufficient repair. Collateral disease theory emphasizes the network-like distribution, gradual branching, and permeating and nourishing functions of collaterals, as well as the concept that prolonged disease enters the collaterals, providing a reference for understanding coronary microcirculatory dysfunction and malnourishment of heart collaterals. Accordingly, the traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) pathogenesis of H-CMD can be summarized into four interconnected stages: Collateral Qi stagnation, scorching injury of collateral vessels, phlegm-stasis obstruction of collaterals, and collateral deficiency with malnourishment. Collateral Qi stagnation is the initiating stage, mainly corresponding to abnormal coronary microvascular vasomotor regulation and endothelial dysfunction. Scorching injury of collateral vessels represents the developmental stage and is closely associated with inflammation, oxidative stress, and endothelial barrier injury after Qi stagnation transforms into fire. Phlegm-stasis obstruction of collaterals represents the prolonged stage and may aggravate vascular wall thickening, luminal stenosis, microthrombosis, and insufficient microcirculatory perfusion. Collateral deficiency with malnourishment is the late-stage outcome, reflecting deficiency of healthy Qi, collateral damage, Qi-blood malnourishment, and weakened repair capacity, mainly manifested as microvascular rarefaction, occlusion, and microcirculatory homeostatic imbalance. Therapeutically, stage-based syndrome differentiation and the combined strategy of dredging and nourishing collaterals should be emphasized. Specifically, promoting Qi movement, resolving stagnation, soothing the liver, and harmonizing collaterals should be adopted in the early stage. Clearing heat, pacifying the liver, calming and protecting collaterals should be adopted in the developmental stage. Resolving phlegm, activating blood, and dredging collaterals should be implemented in the prolonged stage. Supplementing Qi, nourishing blood, tonifying the kidney, regulating balance, strengthening healthy Qi, and nourishing collaterals should be carried out in the late stage. Related formulas and medicinals may act by regulating the nitric oxide/endothelin-1(NO/ET-1) balance, inhibiting inflammation and oxidative stress, improving microcirculatory perfusion, and promoting angiogenesis and endothelial repair. Collateral disease theory may provide a theoretical basis for understanding the dynamic pathogenesis of H-CMD and for stage-based TCM intervention.
