The growth and development of children is an important stage for health, and its monitoringand intervention are related to the long-term development of individuals. The construction of a standardized and multi-dimensional database of pediatric growth and development-related diseases is an important basis for realizing precise diagnosis and treatment and health management. Based on the needs of clinical practice, this study proposes to establish a specialized database of pediatric growth and development-related diseases that integrates facial phenotypes and clinical diagnosis and treatment information. This study elaborates on the construction process, including data sources, data collection content, and the operation and management of the database; and proposes key points for quality control, including the establishment of quality control nodes, database construction standards, and a full-process quality control framework. The above ensure the integrity, logic and effectiveness of the data, so that the database can provide an objective basis for the screening and diagnosis of pediatric growth and development-related diseases. On the basis of scientific data management and strict quality control, the database will help reveal the patterns of children's growth and development, and promote the level of children's health management.

ObjectiveTo use bioinformatics technology to screen the molecular patterns and diagnostic biomarkers of ferroptosis closely related to psoriasis， observe the therapeutic effect of Kaixuan Jiedu core prescription on psoriasis and explore its potential mechanism through animal experiments. MethodsPsoriasis microarray data from GEO were analyzed to identify differentially expressed genes （DEGs）. Intersection with a ferroptosis gene set yielded psoriasis ferroptosis-related genes （FRGs）， which underwent correlation， consensus clustering， enrichment， and immune infiltration analyses. Core diagnostic FRGs （Hub-FRGs） were identified using random forest （RF）， support vector machine （SVM）， LASSO regression， Nomogram， and ROC analyses. In vivo， imiquimod （5% cream） induced psoriasis in mice （except controls）. Drug treatment groups received respective doses， while control and model groups received saline via daily gavage for 7 days. Back skin changes were recorded and PASI scored. Hematoxylin-eosin （HE） staining assessed histopathology. The levels of ferrous ion （Fe²⁺）， malondialdehyde （MDA）， 4-hydroxynonenal （4-HNE） and free fatty acid （FFA） in skin tissue were detected. The level of reactive oxygen species （ROS） in skin tissue was detected by immunofluorescence. Immunohistochemistry was used to detect the expression of ChaC glutathione-specific γ-glutamyl transferase 1 （CHAC1）， arachidonic acid 12-lipoxygenase β （ALOX12B）， trimotif protein 21 （TRIM21）， proliferation marker （Ki67） and nuclear transcription factor-κB （NF-κB） protein. ResultsAnalysis of GSE30999 identified 2 100 DEGs and 24 FRGs. Gene Ontology （GO） and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes （KEGG） enrichment revealed 1 000 biological functions and 75 pathways. After cluster analysis， combined with three machine learning algorithms， Nomogram and ROC curve analysis， the core Hub-FRGs （CHAC1， ALOX12 B， TRIM21） were obtained. Immunoinfiltration showed inactive memory CD4⁺T cells and activated dendritic cells abundance significantly correlated with Hub-FRGs. In vivo， model group vs. control showed significantly increased PASI/Baker scores （P<0.05）， epidermal hyperkeratosis， inflammatory infiltration， and elevated levels of Fe²⁺， MDA， 4-HNE， FFA， ROS， CHAC1， ALOX12B， TRIM21， Ki67， and NF-κB （P<0.05）. Drug groups vs. model group exhibited significantly reduced scores （P<0.05）， alleviated skin lesions， and decreased levels of Fe²⁺， MDA， 4-HNE， FFA， ROS， Hub-FRGs， Ki67， and NF-κB （P<0.05）. ConclusionKaixuan Jiedu core prescription can significantly improve the skin pathological injury of psoriasis mice， showing good therapeutic and repair effects， and its mechanism may be related to regulating the expression of ferroptosis genes CHAC1， ALOX12B and TRIM21， which are closely related to the pathogenesis of psoriasis.

ObjectiveTo carry out an epidemiological analysis on an outbreak of Mycoplasma pneumoniae infection at a welfare institution to provide a theoretical basis for the corresponding prevention and control measures. MethodsUsing the method of field epidemiological investigation， special field treatment was carried out in September 2022. Serum samples from cases and close contacts in the same ward area were collected for detection of nine respiratory tract infection pathogens （Mycoplasma pneumoniae， chlamydia， influenza， human metapneumosis， respiratory syncytial， human boca， parainfluenza type 1‒4 virus， and Middle East respiratory syndrome， severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus） by immunofluorescence immunoglobulin M （IgM） antibody test. ResultsA total of 14 Mycoplasma pneumoniae cases were identified， all of whom were residents of the welfare institution. The first case occurred on September 4， while the last case was reported on September 13. The incidence rate of the fifth ward area where the first case reported was 12.82% （10/78）， and it was 3.57% （3/84） in the third ward area and 1.20% （1/83） in the first ward area. There was a significant difference in incidence rates between ward areas （χ²=8.90， P<0.05）， but no significant difference was observed in age distribution and length of hospitalization. Thirty-three samples were collected for detection of nine kinds of IgM antibodies against respiratory pathogens. The results showed that the Mycoplasma pneumoniae IgM antibody was weakly positive in the 14 cases. ConclusionBased on the epidemiological history， clinical symptoms and laboratory tests， it was concluded that it was an outbreak of Mycoplasma pneumoniae infection within the welfare institution. Welfare institutions should continue to control the occurrence and outbreak of infection through effective routine hygiene， ventilation， and disinfection so as to ensure the health and safety of their clients.

Objective To explore the causal relationship between Omega-3 fatty acids and the risk of breast cancer via Mendelian randomization analysis.Methods Analysis was conducted on data from genome-wide association studies(GWASs)on Omega-3 fatty acids and breast cancer.The selected instrumental variables(IVs)comprised genetic loci associated with Omega-3 fatty acids.Various Mendelian randomization analysis methods,including inverse-variance weighted(IVW)method,MR-Egger regression analysis,weighted median,simple models,and weighted models,were used to evaluate the causal relationship between Omega-3 fatty acids and the risk of breast cancer.Results A total of 47 single-nucleotide polymorphisms strongly associated with Omega-3 fatty acids were selected as IVs.The analysis methods,including IVW method,revealed no causal relationship between Omega-3 fatty acids and the risk of breast cancer(P>0.05).Analysis methods,such as MR-Egger regression analysis,did not detect significant gene-level pleiotropy(P=0.319),which indicates the high sensitivity and robustness of analysis results.Conclusion The findings of this study suggest the absence of a causal relationship between Omega-3 fatty acids and the risk of breast cancer.

Objective:To explore the safety and efficacy of ureteroscopy-assisted laparoscopic ureteroplasty in the healthy side-lying running position for the treatment of ureteral stenosis after pelvic surgery.Methods:The data of 92 patients with ureteral stenosis after surgery admitted to Ganzhou People’s Hospital from June 2017 to February 2023 were retrospectively analysed. There were 31 male patients and 61 female patients, with an average age of (46.4±23.3) years. Of the 92 patients, 53 patients had previously undergone stone fragmentation or stone retrieval surgery for urinary system stones, 35 patients had undergone gynecologic laparoscopic surgery for gynecologic diseases, 2 patients had previous intestinal surgery, and 2 patients had undergone laparoscopic ureteral reconstruction surgery. The mean preoperative serum creatinine was (120.33±16.52) μmol/L, the mean blood urea nitrogen was (14.28 ± 2.47) mmol/L, and the mean renal pelvis dilation was (3.23±2.47) cm. All patients were placed in healthy side-lying running position with general anesthesia. The patient's lower limbs were in the oblique supine position, and the angle of the lower limbs was 60-80°. By using a transabdominal approach, the narrow section of the ureter was mobilized and excised under the guidance of ureteroscopy. The posterior wall of the ureter was sutured and a zebra guidewire was placed into the renal pelvis. An F7 double-J stent was then retrogradely advanced over the guidewire. Then the anterior wall of the ureter was anastomosed to complete the surgery. The operation time, average length of hospital stay, perioperative complications, preoperative and postoperative pyelectasis and renal function changes were recorded, and the clinical efficacy were evaluated by comparative analysis.Results:Of the 92 patients, 90 patients were successfully treated with ureterovesical anastomosis. Two patients underwent ureterovesical reimplantation because of the low position and heavy adhesion of the stenosis segment. There were no cases of conversion to open surgery or intraoperative death. The mean surgery duration was (121.52±22.35) min, the mean drainage tube indwelling time was (3.16±1.23) d, and the mean hospital stay was (6.46±2.37) d. A patient with moderate hydronephrosis exhibited postoperative urinary leakage. Two patients developed symptoms of hematuria after ambulation. Following treatment with bed rest, adequate drainage, and appropriate hemostatic medication, all patients recovered smoothly and were discharged. The double J tube was removed 3 months after operation, and the CT reexamination after extubation showed that the degree of pyelectasis was (2.52±1.54) cm, the average serum creatinine was (89.64±15.21) μmol/L, and urea nitrogen was (9.42±1.36) mmol/L, which was all significantly different from that before operation ( P<0.05). The patients were followed up for 6 to 12 months, and there was no ureteral restenosis. Conclusions:Ureteroscopic-assisted laparoscopic ureteroplasty in the healthy side-lying running position is a safe and effective surgical method for the treatment of short segment (narrow segment <3 cm) ureteral cicatrix stenosis after surgery. And this surgical method has the advantages of accurate positioning of the narrow segment, safe and convenient ureteral free, exact ureteral anastomosis, and easy placement of double J tube.

Objective To investigate the anti-inflammatory effects of Bupi Yichang Pills on mice with experimental colitis and its potential mechanism of action.Methods Dextran sulfate sodium(DSS)was used to model the experimental colitis,and low-,medium-and high-doses of Bupi Yichang Pills(1.5,3.0,6.0 g·kg-1·d-1)and Mesalazine(300 mg·kg-1·d-1)were fed at the same time.Mice were observed for general behavior and weighed.Hematoxylin-eosin staining was used to observe the pathological injury of colonic tissues.qPCR and ELISA were used to detect the levels of inflammatory cytokines(TNF-α,IL-1β,IL-6,IL-10,IL-35 and TGF-β1),qPCR and Western Blot were used to detect the mRNA and protein levels of glucose transporters and glycolytic kinases.Results Low-,medium-and high-doses of Bupi Yichang Pills significantly down-regulated disease activity index in colitis mice(P＜0.05,P＜0.01).The body mass and colon length were significantly increased,while colon mass,colon mass index and unit colon mass index were significantly reduced(P＜0.05,P＜0.01),and ulcer formation and inflammatory cell infiltration in colonic tissue were significantly improved.In addition,medium-and high-doses of Bupi Yichang Pills significantly down-regulated the mRNA levels and concentrations of pro-inflammatory cytokines including TNF-α,IL-1β and IL-6(P＜0.01),while significantly up-regulated the mRNA levels and concentrations of anti-inflammatory cytokines such as IL-10,IL-35 and TGF-β1(P＜0.01).We further found that high-dose of Bupi Yichang Pills significantly down-regulated the mRNA and protein expressions of glucose transporters(Glut1,Glut2,Glut4)and glycolytic kinases(HK2,Aldolase A,PKM2)in colonic tissue(P＜0.01).Conclusions Bupi Yichang Pills effectively alleviates DSS-induced experimental colitis,and its specific mechanism of action is related to the improvement of glycolytic metabolic pathways and the regulation of inflammatory cytokine expression.

Objective: To under the prevalence of malnutrition and its associated factors in school aged children with cerebral palsy, so as to provide a basis for relevant departments to formulate targeted policies. Methods: From July to August 2023, the researchers selected 333 children with cerebral palsy and 960 children with other diseases aged 6-18 years who were residents of a social welfare institution in Guangzhou, China. Their height and weight were measured and a nutritional status analysis was carried out using a cluster sampling method. Multivariate Logistic analysis was performed to analyze the relative factors and malnutrition status of school aged children with cerebral palsy. Results: The prevalence of growth retardation among school aged children with cerebral palsy was 74.5%, with rates of stunting, normal nutrition status, and overweight/obesity being 17.7%, 7.2%, and 0.6%, respectively. The results of the univariate analysis revealed statistically significant differences in the detection rate of malnutrition among school aged children with cerebral palsy based on gender, gross motor function classification system (GMFCS) grading, and the presence of swallowing disorders ( χ 2=6.02, 15.23, 32.16, P <0.05). The results of the multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that gender ( OR=0.37, 95%CI =0.15-0.91), dysphagia (OR=4.10, 95%CI =1.39-12.12), and GMFCS classification ( OR=1.45, 95%CI =1.04-3.01) were influencing factors of malnutrition ( P <0.05). Conclusions The detection rate of malnutrition among children and adolescents with cerebral palsy in welfare institutions was found to be relatively high, and influenced by various factors. Corresponding nutritional interventions should be developed and implemented based on the risk factors of malnutrition in school aged children with cerebral palsy to improve their nutritional status.
