Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder （ADHD） is often accompanied by tic disorder. The core pathogenesis is considered to be ministerial fire scorching yin and internal stirring of deficient wind， which leads to disharmony between the body and spirit， resulting in clinical manifestations. The treatment principles emphasize nourishing yin fluids， calming ministerial fire， and extinguishing endogenous wind （内风）. The method of nourishing yin fluids is applied throughout the entire treatment process， commonly using ingredients such as Shudihuang （Rehmanniae Radix Praeparata）， Shanzhuyu （Corni Fructus）， Gouqizi （Lycii Fructus）， Wuweizi （Schisandrae Chinensis Fructus）， and Tusizi （Cuscutae Semen）. These are combined with approaches to harmonize the zang-fu organs， primarily including extinguishing liver wind， clearing heart fire， nourishing kidney water， and strengthening spleen earth， thereby stabilizing ministerial fire and extinguishing endogenous wind. Additionally， emotional regulation and smoothing emotional constraint are essential to improve clinical symptoms in children with ADHD comorbid with tic disorder.

Objective: To investigate the epidemiological characteristics and spatial-temporal clustering of varicella in Changchun City from 2020 to 2024, so as to provide the evidence for formulating local varicella prevention and control measures. Methods: The individual case data of varicella were collected through the Surveillance and Reporting Management System of the Chinese Disease Prevention and Control Information System in Changchun City from 2020 to 2024. Descriptive epidemiological methods were used to analyze the population ,regional, and temporal distribution. Spatial autocorrelation and spatio-temporal scanning analyses were used to identify the spatial-temporal clustering characteristics. Results: A total of 8 850 varicella cases were reported in Changchun City from 2020 to 2024, with an average annual incidence of 19.64/105. There were 4 929 male cases and 3 921 female cases, with a male-to-female ratio of 1.26∶1. The age was mainly 0-<20 years (6 649 cases, 75.13%), and students were the predominant occupation (6 036 cases, 68.20%). The top three counties (cities, districts) with the highest number of cases were Chaoyang District (1 944 cases), Gongzhuling City (1 054 cases) and Nanguan District (987 cases), accounting for 45.03%. The peak incidence periods were from April to June and from October to December, with 2 166 and 4 226 cases, accounting for 24.47% and 47.75%, respectively. Spatial autocorrelation analysis showed that spatial clustering existed from 2020 to 2024. The high-high clustering areas were mainly some townships (streets) in Chaoyang District, Nanguan District, Changchun New District and Jingyue District. Spatio-temporal scanning analysis identified 6 high-risk clustering areas. The class Ⅰ clustering area was Nanhu Street in Chaoyang District, with the clustering period from September 2020 to February 2022. Conclusions Varicella cases in Changchun City were mainly males and students aged 0-<20 years from 2020 to 2024. The peak incidence was mainly in winter. Chaoyang District was a high-risk area, with obvious spatial-temporal clustering.

This study aims to prepare monoclonal antibody to S1 protein of porcine epidemic diar-rhea virus(PEDV).E.coli expression system and affinity chromatography were used to success-fully obtain purified recombinant PEDV S1 protein.After immunizing BALB/c mice,hybridoma technology and indirect ELISA were used to prepare and screen positive hybridoma cells.Finally,ascites antibodies were prepared by in vivo induction method.ELISA results showed that a total of 4 hybridoma cell lines with anti-PEDV S1 monoclonal antibody were screened,and they were named E6,G3,H6 and F2.The supernatant titers of all 4 hybridoma cell lines reached 1∶6 400.The monoclonal antibody H6 with higher antibody titers and more stable antibody secretion was selected for antibody type identification.It was found that monoclonal antibody H6 belongs to the IgG1 subclass and the light chain is the λ chain.The antibody titers that induced mouse ascites were 1∶106 and without cross-reaction with other proteins.Western blot results showed that the monoclonal antibody exhibited specific bands at 38 kDa with the recombinant S1 protein,PEDV QY2016,and PEDV CV777 strains.The IFA results also showed that the monoclonal antibody reacted with cells infected with PEDV QY2016 and PEDV CV777 strains,exhibiting a green fluo-rescent signal.The affinity constant of monoclonal antibody H6 was K=1.75×107 moL/L,indica-ting that the H6 strain had a good affinity and could be used for the development of subsequent di-agnostic antibodies.In summary,this study successfully prepared monoclonal antibodies that can specifically recognize PEDV S1 protein,which can be used for the antigen detection of PEDV and providing important test materials for the research of PEDV detection methods.

Objective:To investigate the application of blended team-based learning (BTBL) in improving the clinical reasoning ability of general practitioners from different sources.Methods:From September to December in 2021, 52 postgraduates of general practice in Tongji University School of Medicine were selected as subjects, and according to their study background and practice experience, they were divided into residency training group, community group, and specialist group. BTBL was adopted for all students in the course of clinical reasoning in general practice, and a 4-station objective structured clinical examination (OSCE) test was conducted before and after the course to evaluate teaching effectiveness from the aspects of medical history collection, physical examination, doctor-patient communication, and medical record writing. SPSS 22.0 was used to perform a statistical analysis of data. Continuous data were expressed as mean±standard deviation, and an analysis of variance or the Kruskal-Wallis test was used for comparison between groups; the paired samples t-test or the Wilcoxon signed rank sum test was used for comparison of normally distributed or non-normally distributed data within each group. Categorical data were expressed as frequency and percentage. Results:There was a significant change in the score of physical examination after the course in the community group (44.88±9.17 vs. 78.06±12.11, t=-12.49, P<0.001), the specialist group (45.85±8.18 vs. 68.65±13.10, t=-6.43, P<0.001), and the residency training group (42.38±15.30 vs. 76.44±16.46, t=-5.98, P<0.001). There was a significant change in the score of doctor-patient communication after the course in the community group (63.00±13.84 vs. 78.69±7.10, t/Z=-4.33, P<0.05) and the residency training group (60.00±15.50 vs. 70.88±6.44, t/Z=-2.12, P<0.05). There was also a significant change in the score of medical record writing after the course in the community group (60.19±17.96 vs. 79.69±14.25, t=-2.96, P<0.05), the specialist group (47.77±12.59 vs. 80.31±12.93, t=-6.26, P<0.05), and the residency training group (37.00±15.50 vs. 75.88±15.88, t=-7.25, P<0.05). The score of medical record writing before the course was 60.19±17.96 in the community group, 47.77±12.59 in the specialist group, and 37.00±15.50 in the residency training group, with a significant difference between the three groups ( χ2=13.04, P=0.001); after the course, the score of medical record writing was 78.69±7.10 in the community group, 63.46±19.40 in the specialist group, and 70.88±6.44 in the residency training group, with a significant difference between the three groups ( χ2=10.13, P=0.006). Conclusions:In the course of clinical reasoning in general practice, BTBL can improve teaching efficiency, save teaching resources, and play the role of promoting strengths and avoiding weaknesses.

Objective:To develop and validate machine learning models for predicting the cumulative live birth rate (CLBR) following in vitro fertilization (IVF) and to analyze key predictive features using SHAP values. Methods:This retrospective study included data from patients who underwent IVF-embryo transfer at the Department of Reproductive Medicine, Baoding Maternal and Child Health Hospital, between January 2017 and December 2022. Patients were categorized into two groups based on live birth outcome: the live birth group ( n=1 036) and the non-live birth group ( n=756). The dataset was randomly divided into a training set and a validation set in a ratio of 7∶3. Five algorithms were utilized for model development: logistic regression, random forest, extreme gradient boosting (XGBoost), support vector machine, and neural networks. Model performance was assessed using the area under the receiver operating characteristic (AUC) curve, F1 score, and calibration curves. Clinical decision curve analysis (DCA) was employed to evaluate the clinical utility of the models. SHAP values were used to interpret feature importance in the XGBoost model and enhance its explainability. Results:The XGBoost model demonstrated the best performance in predicting CLBR,with accuracy of 72.44%, AUC of 0.775, and F1 score of 0.654, accuracy and F1 score outperforming logistic regression (accuracy was 70.02%, F1 score was 0.585), random forest (accuracy was 71.69%, F1 score was 0.606), support vector machine (accuracy was 70.20%, F1 score was 0.607), and neural network (accuracy was 68.72%, F1 score was 0.560). The calibration curve of XGBoost closely aligned with the diagonal line, indicating that the predicted probabilities were very close to the actual outcomes, demonstrating good calibration. DCA indicated that the XGBoost model provided higher net benefits across a wide range of clinical decision thresholds. SHAP value analysis identified number of previous IVF failures, antral follicle count, anti-Müllerian hormone level, percentage of normal sperm morphology, and sperm DNA fragmentation index as key predictors of CLBR.Conclusion:The XGBoost model exhibits excellent predictive performance and calibration for CLBR, with SHAP values providing important insights into feature importance. This model has the potential to support the development of personalized treatment strategies in clinical practice. However, its generalizability needs to be validated using external datasets to ensure its applicability to diverse populations.

Objective:To compare the value of different quantification methods for intraoperative hypotension in predicting postoperative acute kidney injury (AKI) in patients undergoing off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting (OPCABG).Methods:The medical records of American Society of Anesthesiologists Physical Status classification Ⅲ-Ⅳ patients of either sex, aged 18-80 yr, with a body mass index of 18-30 kg/m 2, scheduled for elective OPCABG, were retrospectively collected at Tianjin Chest Hospital from September 2021 to October 2023. Intraoperative hypotension was quantified using the methods such as the number of occurrence, average decrease in magnitude, duration, and the area under the threshold (mean arterial pressure <65 mmHg, 1 mmHg = 0.133 kPa). Patients were divided into AKI group and non-AKI group based on the occurrence of AKI within 7 days postoperatively. The extended logistic regression model was used to adjust for confounding factors, and the receiver operating characteristic curves were plotted to compare the accuracy of different methods for intraoperative hypotension in predicting postoperative AKI. Results:The results of multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the frequency of hypotension ( OR=1.03, 95% confidence interval [ CI] 1.01-1.05, P=0.010), duration of hypotension ( OR=1.04, 95% CI 1.01-1.08, P=0.007), and area under the threshold ( OR=1.03, 95% CI 1.01-1.06, P=0.023) were risk factors for postoperative AKI. The areas under the curve for the quantification methods predicting the occurrence of postoperative AKI within 7 days, including the duration of hypotension, area under the threshold, frequency of hypotension, and mean decrease in blood pressure, were 0.751, 0.652, 0.647 and 0.513, respectively. Conclusions:The duration of hypotension, area under the threshold and frequency of hypotension are independent risk factors for postoperative AKI in patients undergoing OPCABG. The duration of hypotension has a higher accuracy in predicting the occurrence of postoperative AKI.

During the progression of ischemic stroke,cells experience oxidative stress and intracellular energy depletion,triggering the dynamic assembly and disassembly of stress granules.Stress granules may have a dual role in ischemic stroke.In the ultra-early reperfusion period(6-36 h),under acute stress,the stress granules may inhibit neuronal apoptosis and exert neuroprotective effects through reversible liquid-liquid phase separation.In contrast,in the acute reperfusion period(36 h to 2 weeks),under prolonged stress,pathological stress granules may accumulate through liquid-solid phase transition,leading to neuronal dysfunction and inducing ischemic stroke sequelae such as motor and cognitive impairments.This article reviewed the mechanisms of stress granules dynamic phase transitions during ischemic stroke and their effects on neurons,aiming to provide references and insights for future stress granule-targeted interventions for ischemic stroke and its sequelae.
