Doctor-patient communication not only depends on the medical group but is also affected by the patient group and the specific situation. Effective doctor-patient communication requires the doctors to improve their communication skills， the patients to have relevant knowledge regarding a certain symptom or disease， and mutual trust between the doctor and patient. The information ecology theory mainly analyzes the relationships between various ecological elements and the ecological development mechanisms in the process of information activities from the perspective of the ecosystem， as well as attaches importance to the mutual influences and roles of information subjects and objects， information contents， information environment， and information technology within the system， which is consistent with the influencing factors of doctor-patient communication. Based on the information ecology theory， this paper analyzed the new problems faced by doctor-patient communication under the information technology environment from the four dimensions， including information subjects and objects， information itself， information context， and information technology. It was proposed that effective doctor-patient communication required to re-examine the influencing factors of doctor-patient communication， as well as construct a doctor-patient community， including a community of knowledge， communication， emotion， and interest， so that the four factors of doctor-patient communication can form a new balance in the dynamic development， with a view to providing practical guidance for doctor-patient trust and effective doctor-patient communication.

Objective To investigate the impact of vestibular dysfunction on various domains of cognitive function, providing a basis for developing comprehensive vestibular-cognitive intervention strategies. Methods A total of 33 patients with confirmed unilateral vestibular dysfunction treated at Eye & ENT Hospital, Fudan University between June 2024 and December 2024. Vestibular function was assessed using vestibular evoked myogenic potential (VEMP), caloric testing, video head impulse test (vHIT), and sensory organization test (SOT). Cognitive function was evaluated using mini-mental state examination (MMSE), Montreal cognitive assessment (MoCA), Stroop color-word test, trail making test (TMT), and auditory verbal learning test (AVLT). Subjective symptoms were assessed using dizziness handicap inventory (DHI). Results In the vestibular function assessment of patients, abnormalities in caloric testing, utricle VEMP and saccule VEMP results were most common, with rates of 87.9%, 57.6%, and 66.7%, respectively; SOT abnormality primarily characterized by impaired vestibular function (21.2%). Spearman correlation analysis showed age, years of education, hearing ability, and emotional state were associated with overall or specific domains of cognitive function in patients. Greater vestibular dysfunction severity was associated with longer TMT-A time (r＝0.443，P＝0.010), most severe damage of short-term (r＝－0.405，P＝0.019) and long-term delayed recalls (r＝－0.537，P＝0.001). Patients with 31-60 of DHI scores showed longer TMT-A time than patients with 0-30 of DHI scores (P＝0.033). Conclusions Patients with vestibular dysfunction exhibit significant impairment in low-frequency semicircular canal and utricle function, which affects attention allocation, information processing speed, and memory performance in cognitive tasks.

Objective To develop a crystal violet-methylcellulose plaque reduction neutralization test for detecting the titerof neutralizing antibody against tick-borne encephalitis virus(TBEV), and to verify and preliminarily apply the method, so asto provide a reliable method for TBEV antibody products in the detection of live virus neutralizing titer.MethodsOrthogo-nal experimental design was used to determine the important parameters involved in the experiment, namely, the best experi-mental conditions of virus culture time, virus-cell incubation time, neutralization temperature and methylcellulose concentra-tion. According to the experimental parameters determined above, the method was verified for specificity, relative accuracy,linearity, repeatability and intermediate precision. The titer of neutralizing antibody in serum of population immunized withinactivated tick-borne encephalitis vaccine was detected by the developed method.ResultsThe optimum conditions were asfollows: virus culture time of 5 d, virus-cell incubation time of 1. 5 h, neutralization temperature of 37 ℃ and methylcelluloseconcentration of 3%. Under these conditions, clear round plaques were formed, which was convenient for counting. Neutrali-zing antibodies were detected in both diluted test group and accelerated destruction test group in specificity verification withthe detection results not less than 10, while the results of impurity group were less than 10. In the relative accuracy verifica-tion, the relative bias of each titer was 0-10%, all in the range of ± 12%, and the linear regression correlation coefficient(r)was 0. 999 3, which was greater than 0. 98, In the verification of repeatability and intermediate precision, the geometric coef-ficients of variation(GCVs) of each group of samples were between 1. 5% and 4. 1%, not more than 20%. The serum neutrali-zing antibody titers of the population immunized with inactivated tick-borne encephalitis vaccine were less than 10 beforeinitial immunization, and not less than 10 after initial immunization and before and after booster immunization, and theserum neutralizing antibody increased after booster immunization.ConclusionThe developed TBEV neutralizing antibodytiter detection method has good durability, specificity, relative accuracy, linearity and precision, and the results are easy todetermine, which can be used for TBEV neutralizing antibody titer detection.

Objective: To investigate the impact of preschool children s aquatic motor skill (AMS) acquisition on their fundamental motor skill (FMS) development and the correlation between AMS and FMS development, so ao to provide a scientific basis for early childhood education and physical education teaching. Methods: From April to June 2024, 60 children, recruited by random sampling from a kindergarten in Taiyuan, were stratified randomly divided into an experimental group ( n =30) and a control group ( n =30). The experimental group were further divided into five classes of six each. They received AMS practice interventions twice weekly, 40 minutes per session, over eight weeks (16 sessions total) at a designated swimming center. The control group maintained their usual routine. Children s FMS and AMS were assessed pre and post intervention using the Test of Gross Motor Development-3rd (TGMD3) and Actual Aquatic Skills Test (AAST), respectively. Before and after test comparisons within and between groups employed t-tests, Wilcoxon signedrank tests, ANCOVA (including ranktransformed ANCOVA), and Cohen s d effect sizes were calculated for standardized mean differences. Spearman rank correlation was used to analyze relationships between FMS and AMS. Results: After the aquatic learning, the experimental group scored significantly higher than the control group on locomotor skills ( F=20.47, P <0.01, η 2=0.26), FMS ( F=4.59, P =0.04, η 2=0.08), and AMS ( F=109.71, P<0.01, η 2=0.79). The experimental groups improvement in locomotor skills 5.0(3.8, 7.3) versus the control group (2.8±2.5) yielded a medium effect size (Cohen s d =0.71); AMS gains in the experimental group [26.0(20.8, 28.0)] versus controls [1.0(0, 2.3)] showed a very large effect size (Cohen s d =4.73) (both P <0.01). Among preschool children, AMS acquisition was positively correlated with locomotor skills ( r =0.39) and overall FMS ( r =0.43)(both P <0.05). Skill specific assessments revealed lower proficiency in headfirst entry (immersion), treading water, and sagittalplane rotation. Conclusion Preschool children s acquisition of AMS has a positive effect on their FMS, with mutual facilitation between the two, especially in locomotor abilities.

Objective:To analyze the epidemiological features of respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) infection in Beijing, and monitor the sequence variations in RSV glycoprotein (G) gene and clinical features of infected children.Methods:Respiratory tract specimens were collected from children with acute respiratory infection in the Children′s Hospital Affiliated to Capital Institute of Pediatrics from January 1, 2023 to December 31, 2023. RSV-positive specimens screened by multiple nucleic acid testing were subjected to PCR to amplify the full-length RSV G gene. A phylogenetic tree was constructed after gene sequencing to analyze RSV subtypes and trace G gene variants. Clinical data were retrieved from the medical record system to analyze the clinical features of children with RSV infection in Beijing.Results:A total of 5 489 respiratory specimens were collected from 3 046 male patients and 2 443 female patients. The average age of the patients was 4.36 years. A total of 589 RSV-positive specimens (10.7%, 589/5 489) were detected with 349 from male patients and 240 from female patients. The average age of children with RSV infection was (2.51±2.78) years and the median age was 0.48 years. RSV had been circulating among children in Beijing since March 2023 with two epidemic peaks in May (24.6%, 122/496) and December (18.2%, 126/693). The predominant subtype of RSV in the first half of 2023 was subtype A, but it was replaced by subtype B from November 2023. Phylogenetic analysis revealed a novel G gene of RSV subtype B (RSV-B-BA9-954bp) with a length of 954 bp, which belonged to a new cluster in the phylogenetic tree. The percentage of patients admitted to the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) was higher in children with new variant of RSV subtype B infection than in those with common RSV subtype B infection [44.1% (15/34) vs 25.2% (31/123), χ 2=4.600, P=0.032], while the counts of white blood cells and the levels of C-reactive protein were lower in the children with new variant infection ( P<0.05). Conclusions:RSV has been prevalent among children in Beijing since March 2023 with two epidemic peaks. The predominant A subtype is gradually replaced by to B subtype. A new variant of RSV B G gene (RSV-B-BA9-954bp) is detected among the children.

ObjectiveTo investigate the mechanism of Xuefu Zhuyu capsules against atherosclerosis via regulating polarization of macrophages based on Notch1/jagged canonical Notch ligand 1（Jagged1）/Hes family BHLH transcription factor 1（Hes1） signaling pathway. MethodThe mouse models with atherosclerosis were prepared by feeding the mice with an ApoE^-/- high-fat diet for four weeks， and they were randomly divided into the model group， Xuefu Zhuyu capsule group， and atorvastatin group. C57BL/6 mice were fed as a normal group. The Xuefu Zhuyu capsule group was intragastrically given Xuefu Zhuyu capsules （0.728 g·kg^-1·d^-1）， and the atorvastatin group was intragastrically given atorvastatin tablet （6.07 mg·kg^-1·d^-1）. The normal group and the model group were given equal volume of the deionized water by intragastric administration， and the intervention lasted for 12 weeks. Aortic plaque morphology was observed by hematoxylin-eosin （HE） staining， and aortic plaque area and lipid deposition were observed by oil red O staining. The positive expression levels of CD86 and CD206 in aortic tissue were detected by immunohistochemistry， and serum levels of tumor necrosis factor （TNF）-α， interleukin（IL）-1β， transforming growth factor （TGF）-β₁， and IL-10 were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay （ELISA）. The relative mRNA expressions of inducible nitric oxide synthase （iNOS）， arginase-1 （Arg-1）， Notch1， Jagged1， and Hes1 in aortic tissue were detected by real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction （Real-time PCR）. The relative protein expression of iNOS， Arg-1， Notch1， Jagged1， and Hes1 in aortic tissue was detected by Western blot. ResultCompared with the normal group， the model group had significant aortic plaque and lipid deposition， and the expression levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines TNF-α and IL-1β were increased （P<0.01）. The expression level of anti-inflammatory cytokine TGF-β₁ showed a downward trend， but the difference was not statistically significant. The mRNA and protein expressions of iNOS were increased （P<0.01）. The protein expression of Arg-1 was decreased （P<0.01）， and the mRNA expression of related pathway molecule Jagged1， as well as the protein expressions of Notch1， Jagged1， and Hes1 were increased in the model group （P<0.05， P<0.01）. Compared with those in the model group， the plaque area and lipid deposition had a decreasing trend in the Xuefu Zhuyu capsule group， and the expressions of TNF-α and IL-1β showed a downward trend. The expression of TGF-β₁ was increased （P<0.05）， and the expression of macrophage marker CD86 was decreased. The mRNA and protein expressions of iNOS were decreased （P<0.01）. The mRNA and protein expressions of Arg-1 were increased （P<0.05， P<0.01）. Furthermore， the mRNA and protein expressions of Notch1， Jagged1， and Hes1 were decreased （P<0.01）. ConclusionXuefu Zhuyu capsules can reduce aortic plaque area and lipid deposition in mice with atherosclerosis， alleviate inflammation， inhibit M1 macrophages， and promote the expression of M2 macrophages， and the mechanism may be related to the regulation of Notch1/Jagged1/Hes1 signaling pathway.

ObjectiveTo understand the acceptance of sex-related behaviors， sexual safety awareness， and refusal skills among junior high school students and conduct association analysis， and to provide a reference for the implementation of sex and reproductive health education for adolescents. MethodsA questionnaire survey related to knowledge of sexual and reproductive health was conducted among 478 students from two junior high schools in Jiading District， Shanghai. ResultsThe pass rate for sex and reproductive health knowledge among junior high school students was only 36.6%， with acceptance rates for dating， watching pornography， engaging in sexual behavior， pregnancy， and artificial abortion at 24.5%， 11.1%， 5.6%， 4.8%， and 5.9%， respectively. Binary logistic regression analysis showed that students who passed the sexual and reproductive health assessment had a significantly lower acceptance rate of sex-related behaviors than those who did not （aOR=1.666， 95%CI： 1.124‒2.470， P=0.011）. Adolescents with a passing knowledge of sexual and reproductive health （aOR=1.607， 95%CI： 1.060‒2.438， P=0.026） or a lower acceptance of sex-related behaviors （aOR=4.199， 95%CI： 2.804‒6.289， P<0.001） had higher awareness of sexual safety. Adolescents with a passing knowledge of sexual and reproductive health （aOR=1.691， 95%CI： 1.066‒2.684， P=0.026）， a lower acceptance of sex-related behaviors （aOR=1.756， 95%CI： 1.130‒2.729， P=0.012）， or higher awareness of sexual safety （aOR=2.872， 95%CI： 1.826‒4.516， P<0.001） had stronger skills to refuse sex-related behaviors. ConclusionSexual and reproductive attitudes， sexual safety awareness， and refusal skills for sex-related behaviors among junior high school students in Jiading District need to be improved. Schools should focus on cultivating adolescents’ sexual and reproductive knowledge and related skills， and advocate for relevant institutions to provide appropriate sexual healthcare services to meet their needs for reproductive healthcare.

Objective The study aimed to elucidate the evolution of the syndromes in Traditional Chinese Medicine(TCM)and TCM syndrome elements in different chronic stages of psoriasis vulgaris.Methods A database was constructed using electronic medical records collected from July 2019 to March 2024 from 1,049 patients with psoriasis vulgaris.The study used Sankey diagrams and network association graphs to analyze the evolution of TCM syndromes and their elements in patients at the different stages:initial diagnosis,progressive stage(Week 2-3),progressive stage(Week 4-5),skin lesion improvement stage(Week 6-7),and remission stage.The syndrome elements network was constructed using community detection algorithms,and the association rules between local skin lesion syndrome differentiation and overall syndrome differentiation were displayed using heatmaps.Results(ⅰ)Initial diagnosis.In the syndrome differentiation of local skin lesions,blood heat syndrome was the most common(79.79％);among the disease location of TCM syndrome elements(called"disease location"),liver was the most prevalent(35.62％);and among the pathological factors of TCM syndrome elements(called"pathological factors"),fire(heat)was the most common(75.48％).(ⅱ)Active stage(Week 2-3).In the syndrome differentiation of local skin lesions,blood heat syndrome remained the most prevalent(73.13％);among the disease location,liver was still the most prevalent(31.71％);and among the pathological factors,fire(heat)continued to be the most common(82.11％),while dampness(22.26％)and qi stagnation(8.39％)began to increase.(ⅲ)Active stage(Week 4-5).The syndrome differentiation of local skin lesions was dominated by blood heat syndrome(45.91％)and blood dryness syndrome(37.19％);among disease location,the interior was the most prevalent(15.25％);and among the pathological factors,fire(heat)remained the most common(50.66％),with an increase in yin deficiency(34.26％).(ⅳ)Skin lesion improvement stage(Week 6-7).In the syndrome differentiation of local skin lesions,both blood dryness syndrome(49.44％)and blood stasis syndrome(33.33％)increased;among the disease location,meridians increased most significantly and became the most prevalent(13.44％);and among the pathological factors,blood stasis increased most significantly and became the most prevalent(28.20％).(ⅴ)Remission stage.In the syndrome differentiation of local skin lesions,blood stasis syndrome became the primary(55.69％),while the percentage of blood dryness syndrome decreased(21.16％);meridians(25.71％)and blood stasis(62.34％)remained the most predominant syndrome elements related to disease location or pathological factors.Conclusion The overall pattern of TCM syndromes in psoriasis vulgaris evolved from excess to deficiency.From the initial diagnosis to the active phase(Week 2-3),heat syndrome dominated;during the active phase(Week 4-5),heat syndrome coexisted with damp syndrome or yin deficiency syndrome;changes in the syndrome element network were the most significant during the lesion improvement phase,with blood stasis gradually increasing and peaking during the remission phase.Blood stasis,dampness,and qi stagnation were pervasive throughout psoriasis vulgaris;qi stagnation and blood stasis may be the main elements causing further deterioration and prolonged course of the disease during the active phase in patients.

Objective To investigate the clonal rearrangement characteristics and clinical application value of IGH gene in B-cell non-Hodgkin's lymphoma(B-NHL).Methods Demographic and clinical data as well as IGH sequencing results of 55 patients with B-NHL who underwent next-generation sequencing(NGS)testing were collected,and IGH gene clonal rearrangement was detected.The characteristics of IGH gene clonal rearrangement,IGHV gene usage,and the clinical application value of NGS for IGH clonal rearrangement were analyzed.Results Among 55 patients with B-NHL and IGH clonal rearrangement,single dominant clones were mainly detected(85.45%,47/55);a few patients had two(12.73%,7/55)and three dominant clones(1.82%,1/55).In terms of preference for IGHV gene usage,IGHV3 gene had the highest frequency of access in B-NHL,followed by IGHV4.Among the IGHV subtypes,IGHV3-23 had the highest frequency in chronic lymphocytic leukemia/small lymphocytic lymphoma,and IGHV4-34 had the highest frequency in primary central nervous system diffuse large B-cell lymphoma and not otherwise specified diffuse large B-cell lymphoma.Conclusion A preference for IGHV gene usage in clonal rearr-angement of IGH genes is noted in B-NHL patients with different pathological types.Using NGS to detect IGHclonal rearrangement can identify subclones and clonal correlations,and assist in disease diagnosis.

Objective:To describe the prevalence of food allergy among children aged 0-5 years in China and to explore related influencing factors.Methods:Multistage stratified random sampling method was used to collect data from 275 surveillance sites of the China National Nutrition and Health Survey of Chinese children and lactating mothers programs in 31 provinces (autonomous regions and municipalities) of China in 2016-2017. A total of 70 107 participants aged 0-5 years were included in this study. The study collected information of participants' demographic characteristics and food allergies by face-to-face questionnaire. The prevalence of food allergy was analyzed, using the complex data weighting method. The logistic regression models were used to analyze the influencing factors related to food allergy.Results:The overall prevalence of self-reported food allergy among children aged 0-5 years was 4.81%. Prevalence rates in infants aged 0-5 months, and 6-23 months and preschool children aged 2-5 years were 0.81%, 4.68% and 5.26%, respectively. The results of logistic analysis showed that there was a significantly positive correlation between factors including children from 6 months to 5 years old, urban area, southwest area, first-born, mothers with college education or above, and the prevalence of food allergy in children. Shrimp, poultry eggs, crab shellfish, fruit, milk and fish appeared the common allergic foods in children aged 0-5 years, with prevalence rates of self-reported food allergy as 1.55%, 1.25%, 0.99%, 0.97%, 0.87% and 0.86%, respectively. The proportion of single food allergy in children with allergies was 69.85%.Conclusions:Among children aged 0-5 years, the prevalence of self-reported food allergy increases with age, in China. Foods that is prone to allergies include fish, shrimp, crab, shellfish, poultry eggs, milk and fruits, etc. Most allergies were only caused by single food in children, under observation.
