Owing to physical and mental immaturity， children require special protection in medical research. With the rise of real-world research， ethical issues such as informed consent， privacy protection， and risk-benefit assessment have become particularly prominent in pediatric studies due to diverse data sources and complex study designs. Although institutional review boards constitute the primary safeguard for research ethics， journal editors play an irreplaceable role in pre-publication ethical gatekeeping. From the perspective of journal editors， this paper reviewed common ethical risks in pediatric real-world research， including the lack of scientific value in research topics， unjust control groups， inadequate privacy protection， and other issues. Based on the four principles of biomedical ethics and the three-tier review process， this study constructed a structured ethical review framework. The framework comprised three levels： basic compliance screening at the initial review， substantive risk assessment and grading at the secondary review， and escalated handling of high‑risk manuscripts at the final review， and it achieved a transformation from formal compliance verification to substantive ethical assessment led by risk grading. This could provide effective ethical risk assessment tools for journal editors and offer references for medical journals to improve pre-publication ethical governance.

ObjectiveTo investigate the effect and mechanism of Shuangshen Ningxin capsules （SSNX） in regulating the nuclear factor-κB （NF-κB） and mitogen-activated protein kinase （MAPK） pathways to inhibit inflammation and alleviate myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury （MIRI） in rats. MethodsThe 45 healthy male Sprague-Dawley （SD） rats were divided into sham operation group， model group， and SSNX capsules group （90 mg·kg^-1）. The left anterior descending coronary artery was ligated to establish the MIRI model. Cardiac function was evaluated by echocardiography， and microvascular reperfusion was analyzed using contrast echocardiography. Myocardial inflammation and injury were assessed by hematoxylin and eosin （HE） staining， immunohistochemistry， and TdT-mediated dUTP nick end labeling （TUNEL）. The expression levels of cardiac inflammatory cytokines， including interleukin-1α （IL-1α）， interleukin-6 （IL-6）， and tumor necrosis factor-α （TNF-α） were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay （ELISA）. Core differentially expressed genes （DEGs） and enriched pathways were screened by transcriptome sequencing. Real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction （Real-time PCR） and Western blot were used to verify the mRNA expression of Toll-like receptor 2 （TLR2）， chemokine （C-X-C motif） ligand 1 （CXCL1） and prostaglandin-endoperoxide synthase 2 （PTGS2）， as well as the protein expression of Caspase-3， cleaved Caspase-3， p-NF-κB/NF-κB， phosphorylated extracellular signal-regulated kinase 1/2 （p-ERK1/2/ERK1/2） and p-p38 MAPK/p38 MAPK. ResultsCompared with the sham operation group， the ejection fraction （EF）， fractional shortening （FS）， stroke volume （SV） and cardiac output （CO） of the model group were significantly decreased （P<0.01）， the peak time of myocardial perfusion was prolonged （P<0.01）， hypoxia-inducible factor （HIF）-1α and α-smooth muscle actin （SMA） expression increased （P<0.01）， the concentrations of inflammatory factors IL-1α， IL-6， TNF-α， TLR2， CXCL1 and PTGS2 increased （P<0.01）， and the expression of cleaved Caspase-3， p-NF-κB/NF-κB， p-ERK1/2/ERK1/2 and p-p38 MAPK/p38 MAPK proteins was significantly increased （P<0.01）. SSNX could improve cardiac function （P<0.05， P<0.01）， and significantly shorten the peak time of myocardial perfusion （P<0.01）. Moreover， it could also down-regulate HIF-1α and a-SMA expression （P<0.05， P<0.01）， and reduce the concentrations of IL-1α， IL-6， TNF-α （P<0.01）， and the mRNA expression of TLR2， CXCL1 and PTGS2 （P<0.01）. Additionally， SSNX inhibited the apoptosis rate （P<0.01） and significantly reduced the expression of Cleaved Caspase-3， p-NF-κB/NF-κB， p-ERK1/2/ERK1/2 and p-p38 MAPK/p38 MAPK proteins （P<0.01）. ConclusionSSNX can alleviate cardiac inflammation by regulating the NF-κB and MAPK signaling pathways， thereby effectively preventing and alleviating myocardial reperfusion injury.

Although tumor immunotherapy has transformed cancer treatment，its efficacy against solid tumors remains limited by the immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment，inefficient drug delivery，and off-target toxicity. Engineered bacterial therapy has recently attracted considerable interest as a promising therapeutic strategy owing to its capacity for selective tumor colonization and immunomodulation. Meanwhile，ultrasound technology provides a non-invasive，spatially precise，and real-time controllable means to improve the performance and applicability of bacterial-mediated therapies. This review summarizes recent advances in ultrasound-regulated bacterial therapy for cancer immunotherapy. Beginning with an examination of the mechanisms through which engineered bacteria modulate antitumor immunity，it is followed by an elucidation of how ultrasound technology exploits its biological effects and spatiotemporal control capabilities to simultaneously enhance bacterial therapy's safety/efficacy and enable tumor treatment visualization，thereby activating systemic immune responses. Finally，current challenges and future directions for clinical translation are critically discussed. In conclusion，ultrasound-regulated bacterial therapy represents an emerging interdisciplinary approach with the potential to overcome key limitations in solid tumor immunotherapy.

Objective:To analyze and clarify the conceptual connotations and evolution of fear of falling.Methods:Studies on fear of falling were systematically searched in Chinese and English databases such as China National Knowledge Infrastructure, Wanfang Data, VIP, PubMed, Web of Science, CINAHL, Embase, and PsycINFO. The search period was from database establishment to November 2024. Literature was screened based on inclusion and exclusion criteria, and Rodgers evolutionary concept analysis was applied to analyze the literature to explore changes in the concept of fear of falling over time.Results:A total of 36 papers were included. Attributes of fear of falling included perception and understanding of falling, perception of physical changes, and fear avoidance beliefs. Perceived control ability was determinative of the positive and negative impacts of fear of falling, and the concept of fall concern was significantly differentiated from fear of falling, leading to the construction of a conceptual framework for fear of falling.Conclusions:The concept analysis clarifies the changing circumstances in the development of fear of falling. Future research can further explore the positive significance of fear of falling for targeted interventions.

Objective:To investigate the predictive value of refeeding syndrome (RFS) and its influencing factors for 30-day intensive care unit (ICU) readmission in critically ill patients.Methods:A prospective cohort study was conducted. Critically ill patients admitted to the department of critical care medicine, department of respiratory and critical care medicine, and department of neurology at Tianjin Medical University General Hospital from January to April in 2025 were enrolled. Patients were assessed for RFS according to the American Society for Parenteral and Enteral Nutrition (ASPEN) criteria. General information within 24 hours of ICU admission was collected via the electronic medical record system. Treatment details and 30-day ICU readmission status were dynamically recorded. Participants were divided into readmission and non-readmission groups based on whether ICU readmission occurred within 30 days. Intergroup comparisons were performed to identify differences. Multivariate Logistic regression was used to analyze the relationship between RFS and its influencing factors with 30-day ICU readmission. Receiver operator characteristic curve (ROC curve) was plotted to evaluate the predictive performance of risk factors.Results:A total of 196 critically ill patients were enrolled, among whom 25 (12.76%) were readmitted to ICU within 30 days and 171 (87.24%) were not. Significant differences were observed in the readmission group compared with the non-readmission group, including significantly higher rates of nasogastric decompression, higher acute physiology and chronic health evaluation Ⅱ (APACHEⅡ) score, a higher incidence of RFS, and a longer duration of nasogastric decompression. Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that RFS was an independent risk factor for 30-day ICU readmission [odds ratio ( OR) = 5.756, 95% confidence interval (95% CI) was 1.603-20.670, P = 0.007]. APACHEⅡ score showed a positive correlation trend with 30-day ICU readmission ( OR = 1.057, 95% CI was 0.991-1.127, P = 0.092). ROC curve analysis showed that the combined prediction model incorporating RFS and APACHEⅡ score had an area under the ROC curve (AUC) of 0.766 (95% CI was 0.668-0.864), with a sensitivity of 88.0% and a specificity of 62.0%, which was significantly superior to a single indicator (the AUC of RFS and APACHEⅡ score was 0.639 and 0.624, respectively). Conclusions:RFS significantly increases the risk of 30-day ICU readmission in critically ill patients. A combined model incorporating RFS and APACHEⅡ score demonstrates good predictive efficacy for 30-day ICU readmission in critically ill patients.
