Magnetic resonance elastography （MRE） has become an important tool for the diagnosis and staging of fibrosis in metabolic dysfunction-associated fatty liver disease （MAFLD）， and its high diagnostic accuracy can help to effectively evaluate the dynamic changes and long-term prognosis of fibrosis in patients with MAFLD. In addition， MRE also shows wide potential in patient screening and outcome assessment in new drug development for metabolic-associated steatohepatitis. This article comprehensively analyzes the potential value of MRE in evaluating liver fibrosis in MAFLD patients， as well as its advantages in clinical practice and future development directions.

As the core vehicle for preserving and transmitting traditional Chinese medicine（TCM） academic thought and clinical experience， the establishment of a robust quality evaluation system for TCM clinical case reports is a crucial component in the current standardization and modernization of TCM. Based on the practical experience of constructing the China Clinical Cases Library of Traditional Chinese Medicine by the China Association of Chinese Medicine， this study conducted a comprehensive analysis of critical challenges， including insufficient authenticity and unfocused evaluation criteria. It proposed a three-dimensional evaluation framework grounded in the structure-process-outcome logic， encompassing three dimensions of authenticity and standardization， characteristics and advantages， application and translational impact. This framework integrated 12 key evaluation indicators in a systematic manner. The model preserved the academic characteristics of TCM syndrome differentiation and treatment， while aligning with modern scientific research standards， achieving a balance between individualized TCM experience and standardized evaluation. Concurrently， this study provided theoretical foundations and methodological guidance for evaluating the quality of TCM clinical cases， contributing significantly to the inheritance of TCM knowledge， evidence-based practice， and the reform of talent evaluation mechanisms.

Histopathological examination is currently the gold standard for the diagnosis of metabolic associated fatty liver disease （MAFLD）； however， due to its invasiveness， high risks， and low feasibility， application of noninvasive indicators in the staging and classification of MAFLD has become a research hotspot. This article systematically reviews the efficacy of dynamic changes in various noninvasive markers in reflecting histological changes and clinical outcome events in MAFLD patients， in order to provide theoretical support for dynamic monitoring and individualized management of the disease.

BACKGROUND:Fracture healing is a very complex physiological process,which is influenced by many factors.In recent years,the use of biomechanical factors in fracture healing has been a major focus in the field of orthopedics,and the mechanical stress environment around the fracture end has an important role in regulating fracture healing.Among them,the study of the mechanism of compressive mechanics on the cytokines of fracture ends is a hot spot for bone-related researchers.OBJECTIVE:To summarize the current status and recent advances in the study of the mechanism of action of compressive stress on cytokines in fracture healing in recent years.METHODS:A search with the keywords of"compressive stress,fracture healing,cytokine,bone morphogenetic protein,fibroblast growth factor,platelet-derived growth factor,vascular endothelial growth factor,interleukin,tumor necrosis factor-α"in Chinese and English was conducted in the CNKI,WanFang,PubMed,and Web of Science.Initially 506 articles were retrieved,and 94 eligible articles that met the criteria were screened and finally summarized.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Current studies have found that compressive stress has different effects on different cytokines during fracture healing,which can be achieved mainly by influencing cell signaling,gene expression regulation,and modulation of cell behavior.Among them,compressive stress can be linked to cytokines such as bone morphogenetic protein,fibroblast growth factor,platelet-derived growth factor,vascular endothelial growth factor,interleukin,and tumor necrosis factor-α.This process involves cell proliferation,differentiation and migration,inflammatory response,and changes in the environmental and nutritional conditions of the fracture end,which are key factors affecting fracture healing.The whole paper summarizes the complexity of cytokine action mechanism,the mechanism of compressive stress on its regulation needs to be further carried out in-depth research,and the problems and limitations in the research are considered and future prospects.

The research and development of innovative drug have progressed remarkably, but the long development circle and high failure rate have become the bottleneck. Drug repurposing, discovering new indications of approved drugs, is a strategy to overcome these obstacles. By exploring new indications for approved drugs, rapid progress has been made in basic research and clinical translation in recent years. Rich resources of drugs, proven security, efficient development workflow and reduced cost are core advantages of this strategy, making the strategy a crucial direction of optimizing the pipeline of drug research and development. This review systematically summarizes drug repurposing cases that have received clinical approval over the past five years, and proposes core strategies for drug repurposing, including approaches based on targets, pathways, drug similarity, post-treatment phenotypes, and clinical side effects, aiming to provide some strategic guidance for drug repurposing efforts.

We report a case of a female farmer from the Yichang suburb, aged 68 years, who had been suffering from the infection for 3 years and had a history of seeking medical treatment at a community hospital and receiving blood transfusions. Her hemoglobin was as low as 28 g/L during this visit, and she had been ill for a long time with severe anemia. Routine stool examination revealed hookworm eggs. After active treatment, the patient recovered and was discharged from the hospital.

Based on a review of classical literature combined with modern anatomical and biomechanical research， this paper proposes the "four intersections" of channel sinew diseases from the perspective of structural interfaces， which involves sinew-bone， sinew-sinew， sinew-joint， and sinew-vessel intersections， and analyzes the corresponding pathological characteristics. It is believed that the dynamic evolution of channel sinew diseases can be summarized as "starting with mechanical imbalancew， with interface transmission as the pivot， compensation continuation as the variation， and neurological adaptation as the consolidation". Furthermore， the pathological changes at the "four intersections" structural interfaces correspond respectively to clinical manifestations of enthesial pain， referred pain， joint dysfunction and sensory abnormalities. Understanding channel sinew diseases based on the "four intersections" structural interface is conducive to deepening the understanding of the pathogenesis， thereby providing a reference for clinical identification and precise treatment.

Objective To explore the effect of job satisfaction on job burnout among administrative staff in public hospitals and to examine the mediating effect of career growth in this relationship. Methods A total of 384 administrative staff from 20 public hospitals in Tianjin City were recruited as participants using the convenience sampling method. Their job burnout, job satisfaction, and career growth were measured with the Maslach Burnout Inventory, Job Satisfaction Scale, and Career Growth Scale, respectively. A structural equation model was constructed using AMOS 23.0, and the mediating effect was examined with the Bootstrap method. Results The mean scores of job burnout, job satisfaction, and career growth among participants were (43.1±15.4), (14.4±5.7), and (8.3±4.2), respectively. The results of the mediating effect analysis showed that career growth played a significant mediating role between job satisfaction and job burnout among the public hospital administrative staff, with the mediating effect accounting for approximately 22.2% to 52.2% of the total effect. Conclusion Job satisfaction of public hospital administrative staff can directly affect their job burnout, and it can also influence job burnout through the mediating effect of career growth. Effective measures to improve job satisfaction and promote career growth may help alleviate job burnout among administrative staff in public hospitals.

It is proposed that the core pathogenesis of porto-sinusoidal vascular disease （PSVD） is characterized by deficiency of healthy qi with collateral stagnation and the binding of stasis and toxin. According to the characteristics of its microvascular lesions， PSVD can be treated through syndrome differentiation in three stages， including the occult stage， progressive stage， and decompensated stage. Considering the properties of insect-derived medicinals， such as rapid movement， penetrating action， and ability to search out pathogen and unblock collaterals， three therapeutic principles are established， which are unblocking collaterals， softening the liver， and dispelling pathogen. Clinically， the New-Modified Chaihu Biejia Decoction （柴胡鳖甲汤） is used as the basic prescription with staged modifications. During the occult stage， medicinals such as Quanxie （Scorpio） and Wugong （Scolopendra） are added to search out pathogen， unblock collaterals， and protect the channels from progression. During the progressive stage， Tubiechong （Eupolyphaga seu Steleophaga） and Qianglang （Catharsius molossus） are added to dispel stasis and soften hard masses， thereby removing concretions and dissipating masses. During the decompensated stage， Shuizhi （Hirudo） and Dilong （Pheretima） are added to eliminate stasis and promote urination， treating blood and fluid retention simultaneously.

Objective: To understand the current status and related factors of oral health behavior in preschool children, so as to provide scientific basis for improving parents oral health care abilities. Methods: From March 5 to 12, 2024, using a stratified cluster sampling method, an online questionnaire survey was conducted among parents of 1 381 preschool children aged 3-6 from 6 selected kindergartens of a district in Beijing. A structural equation model (SEM) was constructed based on the Theory of Planned Behavior framework to analyze the factors associated with preschool children s oral health behaviors. Results: The rates of parental assistance in brushing teeth, regular oral examination, and postprandial rinsing were 44.4%, 18.6% and 23.6%, respectively. Attitude, subjective norms were positively correlated with oral health behavior intention ( r =0.61, 0.55); attitude, perceived behavioral control, and behavioral intention were positively correlated with oral health behavior ( r =0.14, 0.13, 0.16) (all P < 0.01 ). The results of the SEM showed that attitude and subjective norms had a significant direct effect on oral health behavior intention ( β = 0.42 , 0.40), and the direct effect of perceived behavioral control on oral health behavior was statistically significant ( β =0.42) (all P <0.01). Conclusions The overall level of oral health behavior among preschool children needs to be improved. Perceived behavioral control is the most direct positive related factor of oral health behavior. In the future, intervention measures should focus on perceived behavioral control as the entry point and provide systematic intervention guidance in combination with planned behavior theory.
