Objective: To analyze the correlation between preschool children s emotional competence and home rearing environment in Shangrao City, so as to provide support for improving children s emotional competence development as well as their home rearing environment. Methods: A total of 1 242 children aged 3-6 years old from 10 kindergartens in Shangrao City were retrospectively investigated by stratified cluster random sampling method in December 2022, and the Children s Emotional Adjustment Scale-Preschool Version (CEAS-P) and the Home Nurture Environment Scale for children aged 3-6 were surveyed on parents of preschool children. The t-test was used to test the difference, Spearman correlation analysis and multiple linear regression were used to analyze the influencing factors of preschool children s emotional competence. Results: There were significant differences in emotional competence scores of preschool children for demographic indicators including age, place of residence, health status and whether they were only children ( F/t =5.98, 6.56, 38.00, 2.23, P <0.01). The emotional competence of preschool children was positively correlated with the home rearing environment ( r=0.62, P <0.01). Multiple linear regression analysis showed that diverse activities/play participation, social adaptation/self management, and emotional warmth/self expression in home rearing environment were positive predictors of children s emotional ability ( β =0.30, 0.28, 0.16), while neglect/intervention/punishment were negative predictors ( β =-0.09)( P <0.05). Conclusions The home rearing environment is a factor related to young children s emotional competence. It is suggested specific parenting initiatives such as enriching family activities and play, strengthening children s self adaptation and management, giving warmth and let children express emotions, and preventing child neglect, interference and punishment should be conducted to improve children s emotional competence.

International registration of herbal drugs is a necessary prerequisite for the internationalization of Chinese materia medica. North America and European Union occupy an important position in the world herbal drugs market, and their drug administration and quality supervision requirements are relatively complete and progressiveness. By summarizing the definition of herbal drugs in North America and European Union, combing and interpreting the relevant laws, regulations and policy documents, this article constructed the registration path of herbal drugs, and discussed the current status of market registration of herbal drugs in North America and European Union based on the examples of successful marketing of herbal drugs under current application and approval in overseas markets. This article believed that in the future, an internationally matched TCM quality standard evidence system should be built, clinical trials of TCM products in line with international standards should be carried out, standards that are the same or higher than international mainstream GMP should be developed, the registration path of TCM compounds should be explored, and professionals to establish an international registration application team should be recruited to provide theoretical and practical support for China's overseas registration of Chinese TCM products, promote TCM products to enter the world mainstream market, and achieve high-quality development of TCM internationalization.

Objective:To study the current status of longitudinal extrauterine growth restriction (EUGR) in extremely preterm infants (EPIs) and to develop a prediction model based on clinical data from multiple NICUs.Methods:From January 2017 to December 2018, EPIs admitted to 32 NICUs in North China were retrospectively studied. Their general conditions, nutritional support, complications during hospitalization and weight changes were reviewed. Weight loss between birth and discharge > 1SD was defined as longitudinal EUGR. The EPIs were assigned into longitudinal EUGR group and non-EUGR group and their nutritional support and weight changes were compared. The EPIs were randomly assigned into the training dataset and the validation dataset with a ratio of 7∶3. Univariate Cox regression analysis and multiple regression analysis were used in the training dataset to select the independent predictive factors. The best-fitting Nomogram model predicting longitudinal EUGR was established based on Akaike Information Criterion. The model was evaluated for discrimination efficacy, calibration and clinical decision curve analysis.Results:A total of 436 EPIs were included in this study, with a mean gestational age of (26.9±0.9) weeks and a birth weight of (989±171) g. The incidence of longitudinal EUGR was 82.3%(359/436). Seven variables (birth weight Z-score, weight loss, weight growth velocity, the proportion of breast milk ≥75% within 3 d before discharge, invasive mechanical ventilation ≥7 d, maternal antenatal corticosteroids use and bronchopulmonary dysplasia) were selected to establish the prediction model. The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve of the training dataset and the validation dataset were 0.870 (95% CI 0.820-0.920) and 0.879 (95% CI 0.815-0.942), suggesting good discrimination efficacy. The calibration curve indicated a good fit of the model ( P>0.05). The decision curve analysis showed positive net benefits at all thresholds. Conclusions:Currently, EPIs have a high incidence of longitudinal EUGR. The prediction model is helpful for early identification and intervention for EPIs with higher risks of longitudinal EUGR. It is necessary to expand the sample size and conduct prospective studies to optimize and validate the prediction model in the future.

Objective To explore the effect of rifampicin on the pharmacokinetics of linezolid in mice and provide pharmacokinetic evidence for the formulation of safe drugs for clinical use of pulmonary tuberculosis.Methods Fifty male KM mice were randomly divided into 2 groups:Control group,rifampicin group;the control group was given 15 mg·kg-1 linezolid;the rifampicin group was given 100 mg·mL-1 rifampicin,continuous administration for 7 days,followed by gavage,administration of 15 mg·kg-1 linezolid;blood and lung tissue were collected from mouse at different time points after administration.High performance liquid mass spectrometry(LC-MS/MS)was used to determine plasma concentration of linezolid and compared the pharmacokinetics between groups.Pharmacokinetic parameters were calculated using DAS 2.0 software.Results Main pharmacokinetic parameters of plasma linezolid in control group,rifampicin group were as follows:AUC0_t were(23.88±1.16)and(19.06±2.56)pg·mL-1·h,respectively;t1/2 were((1.15±0.11)and(1.11±0.10)h,respectively;Cmax were(9.93±0.46)and(7.74±1.17)μg·mL-1,respectively.The main pharmacokinetic parameters of the lungs in the control group and the rifampicin group were as follows:AUC0_t were(18.76±4.29)and(14.90±1.52)μg·mL-1·h,respectively;t1/2 were(1.94±0.50)and(1.44±0.07)h,respectively;Cmax were(8.28±2.67)and(6.82±1.57)μg·mL-1,respectively.AUC0_t and Cmax in plasma and AUC0_t in lung tissue of control group were significantly different from those of rifampicin group(all P＜0.05).Conclusion After the combination of rifampicin,linezolid plasma and lung tissue exposure decreased significantly,and attention should be paid to monitoring linezolid trough concentration when the two drugs were combined to avoid treatment failure caused by low effective concentration.

Objective:To evaluate the predictive value of postnatal esophageal deviation index for clinical outcomes of fetuses with left-sided congenital diaphragmatic hernia (L-CDH).Methods:This retrospective study analyzed the clinical data of 103 neonates with prenatally diagnosed L-CDH who were admitted to Guangzhou Women and Children's Medical Center from January 2016 to February 2023. These patients were divided into the survival group ( n=82) and the death group ( n=21) according to the outcomes, and the extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) group ( n=25) and the non-ECMO group ( n=78) according to whether ECMO support was required. Thoracoabdominal X-ray screening was performed on all neonates within 24 h after admission and the esophageal deviation index and cardiac deviation index were calculated. Independent sample t-test or Fisher's exact probability test were used to analyze the differences in general condition and postnatal imaging features between different groups. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was used to evaluate the value of postnatal imaging features in predicting the prognosis of L-CDH. Results:The esophageal deviation index and the cardiac deviation index of neonates in the survival group were lower than those in the death group [(10.5±5.3)% vs. (18.0±4.5)%, t=－5.47; (37.7±7.1)% vs. (42.8±8.2)%, t=－2.62; both P<0.05], while that were both higher in the ECMO group compared with the non-ECMO group [(18.0±4.3)% vs. (10.1±5.2)%, t=6.34; (42.4±7.9)% vs. (37.6±7.1)%, t=2.63; both P<0.05]. ROC curve showed that the area under the curve (AUC) for predicting the need for ECMO support was 0.879 (95% CI: 0.805-0.953) for esophageal deviation index and 0.712 (95% CI: 0.570-0.854) for cardiac deviation index, with the optimal cut-off values of 11.7% and 41.7%, respectively. The AUC for predicting the survival rate in patients with L-CDH by esophageal deviation index and cardiac deviation index were 0.854 (95% CI: 0.761-0.947) and 0.735 (95% CI: 0.582-0.887), respectively, with the corresponding optimal cut-off values of 15.8% and 41.7%. Conclusion:Postnatal esophageal deviation index is of value in predicting the need for ECMO support and survival rate in patients with L-CDH.

Background and purpose:DDX is an adenosine triphosphate(ATP)-dependent RNA helicase closely related to mRNA regulation,tumor proliferation and invasion.This article aimed to explore the effect of DDX6,a member of the DDX family,on the stability of CKMT1A mRNA,as well as the effect of the DDX6 CKMT1A axis on the proliferation and migration ability of human nasopharyngeal carcinoma cell CNE2 and its molecular mechanism.Methods:We retrieved the data of expressions of DDX6 and CKMT1A in human head and neck squamous cell carcinoma from The Cancer Genome Atlas(TCGA)database and performed a correlation analysis.Western blot was performed to detect the expressions of CKMT1A and DDX6 in human nasopharyngeal carcinoma tissues and normal nasopharyngeal tissues preserved by Affiliated Hospital of Nantong University.This study was approved by the Ethics Committee of Affiliated Hospital of Nantong University(Number:2022-L114).We used transwell assay to detect cell migration ability,EdU assay to detect cell proliferation ability,and colony formation assay to detect clone formation ability.We transfect with lentivirus and plasmids to construct sh-DDX6,sh-CKMT1A,sh-CKMT1A+sh-DDX6 and oe-CKMT1A cell models derived from the human nasopharyngeal carcinoma cell line CNE2,preserved by Affiliated Hospital of Nantong University,to clarify the impact of DDX6 and CKMT1A expression levels on the malignant biological phenotypes of nasopharyngeal carcinoma cells.BALB/c nude mice subcutaneous xenograft tumor model was constructed to detect the effects of DDX6 and CKMT1A on nasopharyngeal carcinoma cells in mice.RNA stability assay was used to detect the effect of DDX6 knockout on CKMT1A mRNA and further clarify the molecular mechanism of DDX6.Results:DDX6 was highly expressed,CKMT1A level was low in human nasopharyngeal carcinoma tissue,and DDX6 was negatively correlated with CKMT1A expression.DDX6 inhibited protein translation of CKMT1A by disrupting its mRNA stability.Low expression of CKMT1A in CNE2 cells enhanced cell migration and proliferation ability,while high expression inhibited migration and proliferation ability.Knocking out DDX6 reversed the progression of malignant behavior caused by downregulation of CKMT1A.Low expression of CKMT1A promoted tumor cell growth in BALB/c nude mice subcutaneous xenograft tumor model,while low expression of DDX6 inhibited tumor cell growth.Knocking out DDX6 and CKMT1A simultaneously restored the inhibitory effect caused by knocking down DDX6 alone.Conclusion:DDX6 in nasopharyngeal carcinoma cells disrupts the stability of CKMT1A mRNA,negatively regulates CKMT1A protein translation,upregulates the proliferation and migration ability of nasopharyngeal carcinoma cells,and promotes malignant progression of nasopharyngeal carcinoma.

Objective To identify clinical risk factors for early major adverse cardiovascular events (MACEs) following surgical correction of supravalvar aortic stenosis (SVAS). Methods Patients who underwent SVAS surgical correction between 2002 and 2019 in Beijing and Yunnan Fuwai Cardiovascular Hospitals were included. The patients were divided into a MACEs group and a non-MACEs group based on whether MACEs concurring during postoperative hospitalization or within 30 days following surgical correction for SVAS. Their preoperative, intraoperative, and postoperative clinical data were collected for multivariate logistic regression. Results This study included 302 patients. There were 199 males and 103 females, with a median age of 63.0 (29.2, 131.2) months. The incidence of early postoperative MACEs was 7.0% (21/302). The multivariate logistic regression model identified independent risk factors for early postoperative MACEs, including ICU duration (OR=1.01, 95%CI 1.00-1.01, P=0.032), intraoperative cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) time (OR=1.02, 95%CI 1.01-1.04, P=0.014), aortic annulus diameter (OR=0.65, 95%CI 0.43-0.97, P=0.035), aortic sinus inner diameter (OR=0.75, 95%CI 0.57-0.98, P=0.037), and diameter of the stenosis (OR=0.56, 95%CI 0.35-0.90, P=0.016). Conclusion The independent risk factors for early postoperative MACEs include ICU duration, intraoperative CPB time, aortic annulus diameter, aortic sinus inner diameter, and diameter of the stenosis. Early identification of high-risk populations for MACEs is beneficial for the development of clinical treatment strategies.
