This study explored the prescription pattern of traditional Chinese medicine(TCM) in the treatment of hypertensive left ventricular hypertrophy(LVH), so as to provide a relevant theoretical basis for the clinical diagnosis and treatment of hypertensive LVH. The study systematically searched the databases of CNKI, Wanfang, VIP, and SinoMed to screen out the qualified literature on TCM treatment of hypertensive LVH and used Microsoft Excel 2021 to establish the relevant prescription database. It also counted the frequency, property, flavor, and meridian affiliation of TCM in the prescriptions and classified their efficacy. The study used Lantern 5.0 and Rstudio software to analyze the hidden structural models and association rules of the high-frequency TCM with a frequency of >3.50% and adopted Origin 2024 software to visualize the data, so as to explore the prescription pattern of TCM in treating hypertensive LVH. The results showed that a total of 128 TCM prescriptions were included, involving 163 TCM with a total frequency of 1 242. The high-frequency TCM included Salviae Miltiorrhizae Radix et Rhizoma, Uncariae Ramulus Cum Uncis, Gastrodiae Rhizoma, Poria, and Chuanxiong Rhizoma, with the main efficacy from blood-activating and stasis-resolving herbs, tonic herbs, and liver-calming and wind-extinguishing herbs. The latent structure analysis(LSA) identified 10 latent variables, 20 latent classes, 7 comprehensive clustering models, and 23 core prescriptions. It was speculated that the common syndromes of hypertensive LVH included blood stasis obstructing the collaterals, ascending hyperactivity of liver Yang, Yin deficiency with Yang hyperactivity, and intermingled phlegm and blood stasis. The association rule analysis yielded 33 strong association rules, with the highest comprehensive association rule being Gastrodiae Rhizoma→Uncariae Ramulus Cum Uncis. Hypertensive LVH is characterized by asthenia in origin and asthenia in superficiality, with Yin deficiency and Qi deficiency as the origin and blood stasis and phlegm as the superficiality. Clinical treatment focuses on activating blood circulation, resolving stasis, tonifying Qi, and nourishing Yin, combined with syndrome-specific therapies such as calming wind and stopping convulsions, clearing heat, eliminating dampness and resolving phlegm, and promoting diuresis and reducing swelling.

Ovarian tumor (OT) is the most lethal form of gynecologic malignancy, with minimal improvements in patient outcomes over the past several decades. Metastasis is the leading cause of ovarian cancer-related deaths, yet the underlying mechanisms remain poorly understood. Psychological stress is known to activate the glucocorticoid receptor (NR3C1), a factor associated with poor prognosis in OT patients. However, the precise mechanisms linking NR3C1 signaling and metastasis have yet to be fully elucidated. In this study, we demonstrate that chronic restraint stress accelerates epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) and metastasis in OT through an NR3C1-dependent mechanism involving nuclear protein 1 (NUPR1). Mechanistically, NR3C1 directly regulates the transcription of NUPR1, which in turn increases the expression of snail family transcriptional repressor 2 (SNAI2), a key driver of EMT. Clinically, elevated NR3C1 positively correlates with NUPR1 expression in OT patients, and both are positively associated with poorer prognosis. Overall, our study identified the NR3C1/NUPR1 axis as a critical regulatory pathway in psychological stress-induced OT metastasis, suggesting a potential therapeutic target for intervention in OT metastasis.

Objective:To study the feasibility and safety of left semiprone position in 3D laparoscopic liver resection for tumor in segment Ⅶ.Methods:Clinical data of 60 patients with liver tumors treated at Jinhua Central Hospita from January 2018 to September 2022 were retrospectively collected, including 40 males and 20 females, aged (51.5±4.5) years. Perioperative data on operative time, intraoperative blood loss, postoperative time of ambulation, postoperative time to flatulate, duration of hospital stay, pathological type, complications (bile leakage, pleural effusion, etc.) were analyzed. Postoperative follow-ups were conducted through telephone reviews, outpatient visits.Results:Of 57 patients (95.0%) successfully underwent the surgery, while three cases (5.0%) were converted to open surgery due to excessive intraoperative bleeding. The operative time was (210.5±20.5) min. The intraoperative blood loss was (220.5±50.5) ml. The postoperative time of ambulation was (1.5±0.5) d, and the postoperative time to flatulate was (2.0±0.8) d. The postoperative hospital stay was (7.2±1.5) d. Bile leakage occurred in four cases (6.7%) after surgery, which was managed by conservative treatment, and pleural effusion occurred in eight cases (13.3%), which recovered after puncture and drainage. Postoperative pathology included 40 cases (66.7%) of hepatocellular carcinoma, three cases (5.0%) of intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma, five cases (8.3%) of liver metastases, seven cases (11.7%) of hepatic hemangioma, two case (3.3%) of angiomyolipoma, and three case (5.0%) of focal hepatic nodular hyperplasia. No tumor recurrence was observed during follow-up (median 26 months; range 18-40 months).Conclusion:The application of left semiprone position in 3D laparoscopic liver resection for tumor in segment Ⅶ is safe and feasible.

Objective:To develop a blockchain-based clinical configuration management model for medical equipment and evaluate its application value in optimizing clinical configuration management of hospital emergency and life-support devices.Methods:A data traceability management model was implemented.The Spatial Durbin Model(SDM)was used to identify issues in equipment configuration,and a blockchain-enabled review framework was established for procurement management of emergency and life-support devices.From January 2019 to December 2022,57 emergency and life-support devices deployed in Shaanxi Provincial People's Hospital were retrospectively analyzed.Among them,26 devices(January 2019-December 2020)were managed via conventional expert evaluation,while 31 devices(January 2021-December 2022)were managed using blockchain-based review.In the conventional mode,four traceability parameters-procurement declaration,supplier qualification,transaction records,and after-sales support-were randomly sampled 128,85,119,and 100 times,respectively;in the blockchain mode,these parameters were sampled 145,94,124,and 105 times.Procurement process compliance was evaluated across device categories:emergency,monitoring,therapeutic,and others required 25,40,30,and 35 review steps(conventional mode)versus 30,45,45,and 35 steps(blockchain mode).Comparative metrics included data traceability rates,process compliance rates,and procurement performance target achievement rates.Results:The blockchain mode demonstrated superior traceability rates:92.41%(134/145)for declarations,100.00%(94/94)for suppliers,97.58%(121/124)for transactions,and 97.14%(102/105)for after-sales support-all significantly higher than the conventional mode(x2=5.898,4.525,9.185,8.362,P＜0.05).Process compliance rates reached 100.00%(30/30)for emergency devices,95.56%(43/45)for monitoring devices,97.78%(44/45)for therapeutic devices,and 97.14%(34/35)for others,with statistically significant improvements(x2=5.176,4.936,5.103,3.968,P＜0.05).Procurement performance targets for progress,benefit,quality,and satisfaction were achieved at 96.77%(30/31),100.00%(31/31),100.00%(31/31),and 93.55%(29/31),respectively,surpassing the conventional mode(x2=6.581,6.535,5.129,5.780,P＜0.05).Conclusion:The blockchain-based clinical configuration management model enhances data traceability,standardizes procurement workflows,and improves performance goal attainment in hospital emergency and life-support device deployment.

Cervical spinal cord injury without fracture-dislocation (CSCIWFD) is referred to as a special type of cervical spinal cord injury characterized by traumatic spinal cord dysfunction and no significant bony structural abnormalities on imagines. Duo to the high risk of missed diagnosis during the initial consultation, CSCIWFD may lead to progressive neurological deterioration or even complete paralysis, severely impacting patients′ prognosis. Currently, there are no established consensuses over the diagnosis and treatment of CSCIWFD, such as the lack of evidence-based standards for indications of non-surgical treatment and risk of secondary neurological injury, as well as debates over the optimal timing for surgical intervention and indications for different surgical approaches. To address these issues, the Spine Trauma Group of the Orthopedic Branch of the Chinese Medical Doctor Association organized experts in the relevant fields to formulate Diagnosis and treatment guideline for acute cervical spinal cord injury without fracture- dislocation in adults ( version 2025) . Based on evidence-based medicine and the principles of scientific rigor and clinical applicability, the guidelines proposed 11 recommendations covering terminology, diagnosis, evaluation treatment, and rehabilitation, etc., aiming to standardize the management of CSCIWFD.

Aim To investigate the protective effects of resveratrol(RSV)on hypoxia/reoxygenation(H/R)-induced apoptosis in H9c2 cardiomyocytes and the un-derlying mechanisms.Methods A model of H/R was established in H9c2 cardiomyocytes.Cell apoptosis was determined by flow cytometry.The expressions of Bax,Bcl-2,cleaved caspase-3 and JAK2/STAT3 signa-ling pathway proteins were detected by Western blot.The inhibitor of JAK2,AG490,was used to assess the effect of RSV on H/R-induced apoptosis in H9c2 car-diomyocytes after inhibiting JAK2/STAT3 signaling pathway.Results RSV could effectively inhibit H/R-provoked cell apoptosis in H9c2 cardiomyocytes and increase the expression of p-JAK2 and p-STAT3.After AG490 intervention,the anti-apoptotic effect of RSV on H9c2 cardiomyocytes caused by H/R was significantly counteracted.Conclusions RSV can inhibit H/R-in-duced apoptosis in H9c2 cardiomyocytes through the activation of JAK2/STAT3 signaling pathway.

Objective: To analyze the change trends in the body shape indicators and proportions of students in Harbin from 2010 to 2024, and to investigate ergonomic compatibility of functional dimensions of school desks and chairs with current student shape indicators, so as to provide a reference for revising furniture standards of desks and chairs. Methods: Between September and November of both 2010 and 2024, a combination of convenience sampling and stratified cluster random sampling was conducted across three districts in Harbin, yielding samples of 6 590 and 6 252 students, respectively. Anthropometric shape indicators cluding height, sitting height, crus length, and thigh length-and their proportional changes were compared over the 15-year period. The 2024 data were compared with current standard functional dimensions of school furniture. The statistical analysis incorporated t-test and Mann-Whitney U- test. Results: From 2010 to 2024, average height increased by 1.8 cm for boys and 1.5 cm for girls; sitting height increased by 1.5 cm for both genders; crus length increased by 0.3 cm for boys and 0.4 cm for girls; and thigh length increased by 0.5 cm for both genders. The ratios of sitting height to height, and sitting height to leg length increased by less than 0.1 . The difference between desk chair height and 1/3 sitting height ranged from 0.4-0.8 cm. Among students matched with size 0 desks and chairs, 22.0% had a desk to chair height difference less than 0, indicating that the desk to chair height difference might be insufficient for taller students. The differences between seat height and fibular height ranged from -1.4 to 1.1 cm; and the differences between seat depth and buttock popliteal length ranged from -9.8 to 3.4 cm. Among obese students, the differences between seat width and 1/2 hip circumference ranged from -20.5 to -8.7 cm, while it ranged from -12.2 to -3.8 cm among non obese students. Conclusion Current furniture standards basically satisfy hygienic requirements; however, in the case of exceptionally tall and obese students, ergonomic accommodations such as adaptive seating allocation or personalized adjustments are recommended to meet hygienic requirements.

BackgroundDepression has become a public health concern that affects the physical and mental health of college students. acute stress response is a risk factor of depression. Exploring the relationship and mechanism between acute stress response and depression is of great significance for preventing and intervening depression in college students. ObjectiveTo examine the relationship between acute stress response and depression among college students， and to analyze the mediating role of rumination and the moderated effect of perceived social support， so as to provide references for the prevention and intervention of depression in college student . MethodsFrom March to April 2020， a cluster sampling method was employed to select 1 355 college students from three universities in Hubei， Jiangxi and Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region. Participants were assessed with Acute Stress Disorder Scale （ASDS）， Ruminative Responses Scale （RRS）， Brief form of Perceived Social Support Questionnaire （F-SozU） and Patients' Health Questionnaire Depression Scale-9 item （PHQ-9）. Pearson correlation analysis was adopted to examine the correlation between the scores of each scale. The mediating role of rumination between acute stress response and depression and the moderated role of perceived social support were examined respectively by using Model 4 and Model 14 in Macro Program Process 3.3. ResultsA total of 1 303 valid questionnaires were collected， yielding a valid response rate of 96.16%. The results of Pearson correlation analysis showed that ASDS score was positively correlated with RRS score and PHQ-9 score （r=0.649， 0.528， P<0.01） among college students. The mediation analysis results demonstrated that rumination played a partial mediating role between acute stress response and depression， with the mediating effect value of 0.273 （95% CI：0.222~0.328）， accounting for 68.59% of the total effect. Perceived social support played a moderated role in the latter path of the mediation model （rumination → depression） （β=-0.004， 95% CI： -0.017~-0.004， P<0.01）. ConclusionRumination played a partial mediating role between acute stress response and depression in college students， and perceptive social support played a moderated role between rumination and depression. ［Funded by Scientific Research Fund Project of Education Department of Yunnan Province （number， 2025J0437）］

BACKGROUND: Telesurgery has the potential to overcome spatial limitations for surgeons, which depends on surgical robot and the quality of network communication. However, the influence of network latency and bandwidth on telesurgery is not well understood. METHODS: A telesurgery system capable of dynamically adjusting image compression ratios in response to bandwidth changes was established between Beijing and Sanya (Hainan province), covering a distance of 3000 km. In total, 108 animal operations, including 12 surgical procedures, were performed. Total latency ranging from 170 ms to 320 ms and bandwidth from 15-20 Mbps to less than 1 Mbps were explored using designed surgical tasks and hemostasis models for renal vein and internal iliac artery rupture bleeding. Network latency, jitter, frame loss, and bit rate code were systemically measured during these operations. National Aeronautics and Space Administration Task Load Index (NASA-TLX) and a self-designed scale measured the workload and subjective perception of surgeons. RESULTS: All 108 animal telesurgeries, conducted from January 2023 to June 2023, were performed effectively over a total duration of 3866 min. The operations were completed with latency up to 320 ms and bandwidths as low as 1-5 Mbps. Hemostasis for vein and artery rupture bleeding models was effectively achieved under these low bandwidth conditions. The NASA-TLX results indicated that latency significantly impacted surgical performance more than bandwidth and image clarity reductions. CONCLUSIONS This telesurgery system demonstrated safety and reliability. A total of 320 ms latency is acceptable for telesurgery operations. Reducing image clarity can effectively mitigate the potential latency increase caused by decreased bandwidth, offering a new method to reduce the impact of latency on telesurgery.

BACKGROUND: Valvular heart disease (VHD) has become increasingly common with the aging in China. This study aimed to evaluate regional differences in the clinical features, management strategies, and outcomes of patients with VHD across different regions in China. METHODS: Data were collected from the China-VHD Study. From April 2018 to June 2018, 12,347 patients who presented with moderate or severe native VHD with a median of 2 years of follow-up from 46 centers at certified tertiary hospitals across 31 provinces, autonomous regions, and municipalities in Chinese mainland were included in this study. According to the locations of the research centers, patients were divided into five regional groups: eastern, southern, western, northern, and central China. The clinical features of VHD patients were compared among the five geographical regions. The primary outcome was all-cause mortality or rehospitalization for heart failure. Kaplan-Meier survival analysis was used to compare the cumulative incidence rate. RESULTS: Among the enrolled patients (mean age, 61.96 years; 6877 [55.70%] male), multiple VHD was the most frequent type (4042, 32.74%), which was mainly found in eastern China, followed by isolated mitral regurgitation (3044, 24.65%), which was mainly found in northern China. The etiology of VHD varied significantly across different regions of China. The overall rate of valve interventions was 32.67% (4008/12,268), with the highest rate in southern China at 48.46% (205/423). In terms of procedure, the proportion of transcatheter valve intervention was relatively low compared to that of surgical treatment. Patients with VHD in western China had the highest incidence of all-cause mortality or rehospitalization for heart failure. Valve intervention significantly improved the outcome of patients with VHD in all five regions (all P  <0.05). CONCLUSIONS: This study revealed that patients with VHD in China are characterized by significant geographic disparities in clinical features, treatment, and clinical outcomes. Targeted efforts are needed to improve the management and prognosis of patients with VHD in China according to differences in geographical characteristics.
