Objective To evaluate the impact of an integrated management mode of prenatal diagnosis-postnatal treatment for congenital heart disease (CHD) on perioperative and long-term outcomes of the arterial switch operation (ASO), and to analyze the efficacy of ASO in a single center. Methods This retrospective study analyzed the clinical data of 183 children who underwent ASO at Guangdong Provincial People’s Hospital from 2018 to 2024. The cohort included 106 (57.9%) patients of transposition of the great arteries with intact ventricular septum (TGA/IVS), 61 (33.3%) patients of transposition of the great arteries with ventricular septal defect (TGA/VSD), and 16 (8.7%) patients of Taussig-bing anomaly (TBA). Perioperative indicators were compared between 91 patients in the prenatal-postnatal integrated management group (an integrated group) and 92 patients in the traditional management group (a non-integrated group). Long-term survival and reoperation rates were analyzed using Kaplan-Meier curves. Results The overall perioperative mortality rate was 4.9% (9/183), showing a downward trend year by year. The primary cause of perioperative mortality was low cardiac output syndrome (LCOS), which occurred in 12 patients (6.6% incidence) with a mortality rate of 75.0%. The integrated group had a higher proportion of males (89.0% vs. 72.8%, P<0.05) and lower body weight [3.1 (2.7, 3.3) kg vs. 3.3 (3.0, 3.7) kg, P<0.05] compared to the non-integrated group. The age at surgery was significantly earlier in the integrated group [7 (3, 10) d vs. 14 (9, 48) d, P<0.05], and all children in the integrated group underwent ASO within the optimal surgical window (100.0% vs. 82.6%, P<0.05). Intraoperatively, cardiopulmonary bypass time [173 (150, 207) min vs. 186 (159, 237) min, P<0.05] and aortic cross-clamp time [100 (90, 117) min vs. 116 (97, 142) min, P<0.05] were significantly shorter in the integrated group. Although the integrated group had longer postoperative mechanical ventilation time [145 (98, 214) h vs. 116 (77, 147) h, P<0.05] and higher 48-hour maximum vasoactive inotropic score [15 (10, 21) points vs. 12 (8, 16) points, P<0.05], there was no statistically significant difference in the incidence of severe complications (LCOS, necrotizing enterocolitis, extracorporeal membrane oxygenation) or mortality rate (3.3% vs. 6.5%, P=0.51) between the two groups, despite earlier surgical intervention and a higher proportion of critically ill cases in the integrated group. The length of hospital stay in the emergency surgery group was significantly shorter than that in the elective surgery group [20 (15, 28) d vs. 25 (21, 30) d, P<0.05], suggesting that early surgery may be of potential benefit. A total of 163 patients were successfully followed up for a median of 4.7 years, with a 5-year survival rate of 95.1% and a freedom from reintervention survival rate of 95.1%. There were no late deaths, and the most common postoperative complication was pulmonary artery stenosis. Conclusion The integrated management model allowed critically ill children with lower body weights to safely undergo surgery, significantly optimizing the timing of surgery and shortening intraoperative times. The long-term risk of reoperation after ASO is primarily concentrated on pulmonary artery stenosis, necessitating long-term follow-up and monitoring.

Objective To investigate the association between school bullying and comorbidity of overweight/obesity and depressive symptoms in middle school students, and to provide a basis for formulating intervention strategies for the prevention and control of common diseases and comorbidities among students. Methods In September 2023, a stratified cluster random sampling method was employed to select junior high school, high school, and vocational high school students in 103 districts and counties across 17 cities (prefectures) in Hubei Province. A questionnaire survey was conducted on these students regarding school bullying and depressive symptoms, and physical measurements of height and weight were taken. The association between school bullying and comorbidity of overweight/obesity and depressive symptoms was analyzed using a logistic regression model. Results A total of 99 921 middle school students aged 11-19 years old were included in the study. The detection rate of overweight/obesity was 29.39%, the detection rate of depressive symptoms was 31.15%, and the detection rate of comorbidity of overweight/obesity and depressive symptoms was 9.15%. Among all students, 24.12% reported experiencing school bullying. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that experiencing school bullying was positively associated with the comorbidity of overweight/obesity and depressive symptoms among middle school students (OR = 2.692, 95% CI: 2.571-2.817, P < 0.001). Stratified analysis results showed that both male and female students who experienced school bullying were more likely to have comorbidity of overweight/obesity and depressive symptoms (OR values were 2.756 for males and 2.594 for females; P values were both < 0.001). Students in all educational stages who experienced school bullying had an increased risk of comorbidity of overweight/obesity and depressive symptoms (OR values were 2.739 for junior high, 2.676 for senior high, and 2.378 for vocational high; P values were all < 0.001). Conclusion The comorbidity of overweight/obesity and depressive symptoms among middle school students is widespread, and there is a significant association between school bullying and comorbidity of overweight/obesity and depressive symptoms. It is necessary to strengthen the prevention and control of school bullying to promote the healthy physical and mental development of adolescents.

ObjectiveTo explore the mechanisms of Salviae Miltiorrhizae Radix et Rhizoma in treating metabolic hypertension induced by a high-sugar and high-fat diet in rats based on network pharmacology， proteomics， and animal experiments. MethodsThirty male SD rats were randomized into the control， model， positive drug （tetrandrine， Tet， 50 mg·kg^-1·d^-1）， low-dose Salviae Miltiorrhizae Radix et Rhizoma （DS-L， 45×10⁴ mg·kg^-1·d^-1）， and high-dose Salviae Miltiorrhizae Radix et Rhizoma （DS-H， 90×10⁴ mg·kg^-1·d^-1） groups. Except for the control group， each group was fed a high-fat and high-sugar diet for 8 weeks for the modeling of metabolic hypertension. Following successful modeling， drug interventions were conducted through gavage for 4 weeks. Blood pressure and lipid indicators were monitored， and cardiac function was assessed via echocardiography. Samples from the thoracic aorta and cardiac tissue were collected for histopathological examination. Network pharmacology analysis identified key active components， potential targets， and mechanisms of Salviae Miltiorrhizae Radix et Rhizoma in treating hypertension. Proteomics technology was employed to analyze the differential proteins and major pathway targets to synergistically elucidate the antihypertensive mechanism of Salviae Miltiorrhizae Radix et Rhizoma. Ca²⁺ concentrations in the thoracic aorta and cardiac tissue were measured. The protein levels of transient receptor potential cation channel （TRPC）3， TRPC6， NADPH oxidase （NOX）2， and NOX4 were quantified via Western blotting. The levels of oxidative stress markers and inflammatory factors， including superoxide dismutase （SOD）， malondialdehyde （MDA）， tumor necrosis factor-α （TNF-α）， and interleukin-1β （IL-1β）， were determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay （ELISA）. Molecular docking analysis was performed for the main components of Salviae Miltiorrhizae Radix et Rhizoma with TRPC3， TRPC6， NOX2， and NOX4. ResultsThe experimental results indicated that compared with the control group， the model group exhibited abnormally elevated blood pressure and increased lipid levels （P<0.01）. Compared with the model group， the DS-L group exhibited reduced systolic blood pressure （SBP）， diastolic blood pressure （DBP）， and mean arterial pressure （MAP） （P<0.05）， decreased serum levels of triglycerides （TG）， total cholesterol （TC）， and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol （LDL-C） （P<0.05）， and increased level of high-density lipoprotein cholesterol （HDL-C） （P<0.01）. The DS-H and Tet groups showed more significant effects （P<0.01）. Moreover， the interventions attenuated vascular wall thickening， myocardial cell injury， and collagen and lipid deposition. Network pharmacology and proteomics prediction results indicated that the core targets of Salviae Miltiorrhizae Radix et Rhizoma in treating hypertension were TRPC3， TRPC6， NOX2， and NOX4， and the core pathways included calcium signaling， cyclic guanosine monophosphate （cGMP）/cGMP-dependent protein kinase （PKG） signaling， and atherosclerosis-related pathways. The molecular mechanism experiment results indicated that compared with the control group， the model group exhibited significantly elevated tissue Ca²⁺ concentrations， exacerbated oxidative stress and inflammatory responses， and upregulated protein levels of TRPC3， TRPC6， NOX2， and NOX4 in the thoracic aorta and myocardial tissue （P<0.01）. Compared with the model group， DS-L reduced the free Ca²⁺ concentration， lowered the levels of IL-1β， TNF-α， SOD， and MDA （P<0.05）， and downregulated the protein levels of TRPC3， TRPC6， NOX2， and NOX4 in the thoracic aorta and myocardial tissue （P<0.05）. DS-H and Tet exhibited more significant effects （P<0.01）. Meanwhile， the main components of Salviae Miltiorrhizae Radix et Rhizoma had strong binding affinity with the core targets of hypertension. ConclusionSalviae Miltiorrhizae Radix et Rhizoma may ameliorate oxidative stress and mitigate inflammatory responses by regulating the TRPC3/6/NOX2/4 signaling pathway， thereby alleviating abnormal blood pressure abnormality and myocardial injury in hypertensive rats.

ObjectiveTo evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety of Xiaozhen Formula （消疹方） in preventing skin toxicity induced by epidermal growth factor receptor inhibitors （EGFRIs） in patients with EGFR-mutant non-small cell lung cancer （NSCLC）. MethodsA randomized， double-blind， placebo-controlled， multicenter clinical study was conducted. A total of 120 patients with EGFR-mutant NSCLC from seven centers were enrolled and randomly assigned to a treatment group （60 cases） or a control group （60 cases）. On the basis of EGFRI-targeted therapy， patients in the treatment group received Xiaozhen Formula granules， whereas those in the control group received Xiaozhen Formula placebo granules， both at 10 g twice daily for 4 consecutive weeks. The primary outcomes were the grading of skin toxicity evaluated using the National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events （NCI-CTCAE） version 5.0 and the incidence of rash. Secondary outcomes included the time to onset and time to resolution of the highest-grade rash， the European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Questionnaire-Core 30 （EORTC QLQ-C30） scores， the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale （HADS） scores， and disease control rate， together with safety assessments. ResultsBased on the full analysis set （FAS）， the incidence of skin toxicity in the treatment group was 18.33% （11/60）， significantly lower than 45.00% （27/60） in the control group （P＜0.01）， with the highest severity of skin toxicity in both groups was grade 2. Among patients who developed rash， the resolution rate in the treatment group was 90.91% （10/11）， higher than that 33.33% （9/27） in the control group. The median time to resolution was 15 days （95%CI： 8-17 days） in the treatment group and it was not reached in the control group； the distribution of time to resolution differed significantly between groups （P＜0.001）. After treatment， the treatment group had higher EORTC QLQ-C30 functional scale and global health status/quality-of-life scores， and lower symptom scale， single-item scores， as well as HADS-A， and HADS-D scores than the control group （P＜0.05）. In the FAS analysis， the disease control rate （DCR） was 85.0% （51/60） in the treatment group， lower than 100.0% （60/60） in the control group （P=0.003）， whereas no significant between-group difference was observed in the per-protocol set （PPS） analysis （P=0.464）. The incidence of adverse events did not differ significantly between the two groups （P＞0.05）， and no definite safety signals related to the investigational drug were observed. ConclusionXiaozhen Formula can reduce the incidence of EGFRI-induced skin toxicity， and improve the outcome of rash regression， the patients' quality of life and psychological status in EGFR-mutant NSCLC patients.

Travelling wave structures for lossless ion manipulations(TW-SLIM)employ travelling wave electric fields to propel ions forward,enabling exceptionally long transmission paths and holding great potential for applications in material transportation and separation.In this study,different from previous studies focusing on the transport performance of macromolecules such as proteins in TW-SLIM,the transmission performance of small molecules(<200 amu)was investigated and analyzed in the turning TW-SLIM through the COMSOL simulation platform,to explore the influence of electrostatic field of protective electrode and radio frequency(RF)electric field on ion transport efficiency,and obtain the optimal value.Compared to macromolecules,small molecules required lower voltage amplitudes from guard electrodes but stricter requirements in terms of the peak-to-peak amplitude and frequency of RF voltage for lossless transmission.Using dimethyl methylphosphonate(DMMP)as a sample and testing it on the TW-SLIM experimental platform,when the protective voltage amplitude was 5 V and the peak-to-peak voltage of the radio-frequency electrode was 440 V at 1.5 MHz,the ion transmission efficiency reached 100%,achieving lossless transmission.The experimental results provided valuable references for application of TW-SLIM in separation and detection of small molecular substances,such as explosives and drugs.

In the field of substance detection,ion dissociation techniques have become crucial for enhancing qualitative accuracy.By applying external energy to induce dissociation of ions in the substance being analyzed,the internal structural information can be obtained,thereby improving qualitative capabilities.Current research on ion dissociation techniques primarily focuses on tandem mass spectrometry,which typically requires a vacuum environment.However,research on ambient ion dissociation techniques is less developed,with some progress made in the field of tandem ion mobility spectrometry.Recently,the development of field-induced dissociation(FID)in this area has enabled ambient dissociation of various explosive and volatile alcohol ions.Nevertheless,the limitation imposed by the maximum breakdown field of air restricts the energy of the electric field,making it challenging to dissociate ions with high energy requirements,such as those of drugs.To address this issue,in this work,an ambient heat-induced dissociation(HID)technique based on high temperatures was proposed,in which an ambient ion heat-induced dissociation unit was developed and integrated into a home-made ion trap mass spectrometer.Experiments were conducted on four representative drug samples,e.g.methamphetamine,heroin,cocaine,and ketamine.The parent ions mass spectra,low vacuum collision-induced dissociation(CID)mass spectra and ambient HID mass spectra for each sample were obtained.By analyzing and comparing the fragmentation products from ambient and low vacuum dissociation,the feasibility of the ambient HID technique was verified.This technique provided a method for ion dissociation in single mass analyzers without tandem mass spectrometry capability and offered a new research direction for the future development of tandem ion mobility spectrometry.

Cosmetics may be an important source of human exposure to per-and polyfluoroalkyl substances(PFASs),posing risks to human health.In this study,a nontarget screening method for PFASs in cosmetics was developed using ultra-high performance liquid chromatography-high-resolution mass spectrometry(UHPLC-Q-Orbitrap HRMS)based on the Kendrick mass defect(KMD).The sample was extracted by ultrasonic assisted extraction prior to being analyzed by UHPLC-Q-Orbitrap HRMS.Acquisition of HRMS data was achieved in both full scan and data-dependent(Full MS/dd MS2)mode.The data collected by HRMS were imported into an in-lab built R script for processing.Samples retained the mass spectra peaks with KMD values in the range of 0.85-1 or 0-0.15 for in-and out-of-library matching;when KMD deviation(δKMD)<0.001 and CF 2 mass error(δMS)<15 ppm,it was considered as a potential PFASs homologues.According to matches of parent ions(MS),fragment ions(MS2)and retention time(RT)with the in-house built PFASs database,the screened and identified potential PFASs were categorized to 5 confidence levels(CL1-CL5).A total of 15 kinds of PFASs homologues with confidence level of CL3 and above were screened from 13 cosmetics products and 8 cosmetic raw materials,including perfluoroalkyl alcohol,hydroperfluoroalkyl sulfonic acid,chloroperfluoroalkyl sulfonic acid,etc.with concentrations ranging from 1.9 ng/g to 98.1 ng/g.The nontarget screening method could be used to screen and identify PFASs homologues feasibly and therefore provided data basis for management and control of PFASs addition in cosmetics.
