Following the principles of evidence-based medicine,in accordance with the structure and drafting rules of standardized documents,based on literature research,according to the characteristics of chronic cough in children and issues that need to form a consensus,the TCM Guidelines for Diagnosis and Treatment of Chronic Cough in Children was formulated based on the Delphi method,expert discussion meetings,and public solicitation of opinions.The guideline includes scope of application,terms and definitions,eti-ology and diagnosis,auxiliary examination,treatment,prevention and care.The aim is to clarify the optimal treatment plan of Chinese medicine in the diagnosis and treatment of this disease,and to provide guidance for improving the clinical diagnosis and treatment of chronic cough in children with Chinese medicine.

Objective Studies on the relationship between iodine,vitamin A(VA),and vitamin D(VD)and thyroid function are limited.This study aimed to analyze iodine and thyroid-stimulating hormone(TSH)status and their possible relationships with VA,VD,and other factors in postpartum women. Methods A total of 1,311 mothers(896 lactating and 415 non-lactating)from Hebei,Zhejiang,and Guangxi provinces were included in this study.The urinary iodine concentration(UIC),TSH,VA,and VD were measured. Results The median UIC of total and lactating participants were 142.00 μg/L and 139.95 μg/L,respectively.The median TSH,VA,and VD levels in all the participants were 1.89 mIU/L,0.44 μg/mL,and 24.04 ng/mL,respectively.No differences in the UIC were found between lactating and non-lactating mothers.UIC and TSH levels were significantly different among the three provinces.The rural UIC was higher than the urban UIC.Obese mothers had a higher UIC and a higher prevalence of excessive TSH.Higher UICs and TSHs levels were observed in both the VD deficiency and insufficiency groups than in the VD-sufficient group.After adjustment,no linear correlation was observed between UIC and VA/VD.No interaction was found between vitamins A/D and UIC on TSH levels. Conclusion The mothers in the present study had no iodine deficiency.Region,area type,BMI,and VD may be related to the iodine status or TSH levels.

Currently, single-cell multi-omics technologies including single-cell DNA sequencing (scDNA-seq) and single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) have been used to reveal the heterogeneity of malignant tumor cells, elucidate their pathogenesis, drug resistance and recurrence mechanisms, which provide new strategies for the diagnosis and prognostic assessment of malignant tumors. This article reviews the application of single-cell sequencing technology in the diagnosis and prognostic assessment of acute leukemia based on the progress reported at the 65th American Society of Hematology Annual Meeting.

Surgical operation is the main treatment of oral and maxillofacial tumors.Dysphagia is a common postoperative complication.Swal-lowing disorder can not only lead to mis-aspiration,malnutrition,aspiration pneumonia and other serious consequences,but also may cause psychological problems and social communication barriers,affecting the quality of life of the patients.At present,there is no systematic evalua-tion and rehabilitation management plan for the problem of swallowing disorder after oral and maxillofacial tumor surgery in China.Combining the characteristics of postoperative swallowing disorder in patients with oral and maxillofacial tumors,summarizing the clinical experience of ex-perts in the field of tumor and rehabilitation,reviewing and summarizing relevant literature at home and abroad,and through joint discussion and modification,a group of national experts reached this consensus including the core contents of the screening of swallowing disorders,the phased assessment of prognosis and complications,and the implementation plan of comprehensive management such as nutrition management,respiratory management,swallowing function recovery,psychology and nursing during rehabilitation treatment,in order to improve the evalua-tion and rehabilitation of swallowing disorder after oral and maxillofacial tumor surgery in clinic.

Objective To investigate the attributable risk(AR)of Acinetobacter baumannii(AB)infection in criti-cally ill patients.Methods A multicenter retrospective cohort study was conducted among adult patients in inten-sive care unit(ICU).Patients with AB isolated from sterile body fluid and confirmed with AB infection in each cen-ter were selected as the infected group.According to the matching criteria that patients should be from the same pe-riod,in the same ICU,as well as with similar APACHE Ⅱ score(±5 points)and primary diagnosis,patients who did not infect with AB were selected as the non-infected group in a 1:2 ratio.The AR was calculated.Results The in-hospital mortality of patients with AB infection in sterile body fluid was 33.3％,and that of non-infected group was 23.1％,with no statistically significant difference between the two groups(P=0.069).The AR was 10.2％(95％CI:-2.3％-22.8％).There is no statistically significant difference in mortality between non-infected pa-tients and infected patients from whose blood,cerebrospinal fluid and other specimen sources AB were isolated(P＞0.05).After infected with AB,critically ill patients with the major diagnosis of pulmonary infection had the high-est AR.There was no statistically significant difference in mortality between patients in the infected and non-infec-ted groups(P＞0.05),or between other diagnostic classifications.Conclusion The prognosis of AB infection in critically ill patients is highly overestimated,but active healthcare-associated infection control for AB in the ICU should still be carried out.

Tingli Dazao Xiefeitang is a classic formula for treating lung abscesses and thoracic fluid retention， recognized throughout history and included in the Catalogue of Ancient Classic Formulas （Second Batch）. This article employs bibliometric methods to investigate and analyze the source， origin， and key information of Tingli Dazao Xiefeitang， providing a theoretical basis for the development and application of this renowned formula. The results show that Tingli Dazao Xiefeitang first appears in Synopsis of the Golden Chamber （Jin Kui Yao Lue）， where three clinical applications are recorded. The original text clearly states that this formula is used to treat lung abscesses and thoracic fluid retention， with symptoms such as inability to lie down due to wheezing， chest and rib fullness， facial edema， inability to rest due to thoracic fluid retention， and cough inversion. This aligns with findings from ancient application research. In later generations， the methods proposed by ZHANG Zhongjing were predominantly used for medication and formulation. Modern applications of Tingli Dazao Xiefeitang focus primarily on the respiratory system， with pleural effusion being the most common condition. For the preparation and decoction， a single dose of 5 g of Descurainiae Semen Lepidii Semen （dried and mature seeds of Lepidium apetalum） processed as stir-fried seeds and 36 g of Jujubae Fructus （dried and mature fruit of Ziziphus jujuba） prepared as raw materials were recommended. Then 600 mL of water was added and Jujubae Fructus was first boiled until the volume reduced to 400 mL. After filtering out the residue， the supernatant was retained and mixed with stir-fried Descurainiae Semen Lepidii Semen， followed by boiling to 200 mL， which should be consumed all at once. This research provides a theoretical basis for the development and application of this formula.

This study was aimed at investigating the pathogenic and molecular characteristics of Klebsiella pneumoniae(KP)in fecal samples of diarrhea cases in a district of Beijing.Fecal samples from diarrhea cases in an outpatient department in a district of Beijing from 2018 to 2021 were collected,and used for isolation and culture of KP.The KP strains isolated strains were subjected to drug resistance phenotype testing and whole-genome sequencing.Multilocus sequence typing and whole-genome phyletic evolution analysis were performed on the sequencing results.The cases'epidemiological and clinical characteristics were analyzed.From 2018 to 2021,1 103 fecal samples were collected and detected.The total detection rate of KP was 10.43％(115/1 103),and the infection rate of KP mixed with other diarrhea-causing pathogens was 42.61％(49/115).The positivity rate was slightly high(12.47％,61/489)a-mong females and was highest in young adults 16-45 years of age.Small peaks were observed in January,April to May,and August to September.The gastrointestinal symptoms in cases were mainly nausea and watery stool,and the suspicious food was unknown.Ampicillin,tetracycline,and sulfafurazole were the top three antibiotics to which these 115 KP strains showed resistance,and 29 strains were resistant to multiple antibiotics.The strains were divided into 72 sequence types,among which ST23 was dominant.According to the phylogenetic tree,the strains were divided into four main branches,among which 14 ST23 strains had a very close genetic relationship with the highly virulent NTUH-K2044 reference strain.KP infection persisted in fecal samples from diarrhea cases in the district of Beijing.Women and young adults were particularly susceptible.The drug resistance of KP strains in this region was very serious,and the ST types were diverse.Moreover,the ST23 pathogenic strains were closely related to high virulence strains.

Objective:To investigate the efficacy and prognosis of chemotherapy regimen containing Bruton's tyrosine kinase(BTK)inhibitor in the treatment of relapsed/refractory mantle cell lymphoma(R/R MCL).Methods:The clinical data of 134 patients with R/R MCL were collected and analyzed retrospectively.The clinical characteristics of patients and effect of chemotherapy regimen on efficacy,overall survival(OS)and progression-free survival(PFS)were observed.Results:The median age of the patients was 58(56-61)years old,and male to female ratio was about 2.9∶1.Patients with Ann Arbor stage Ⅲ-Ⅳ accounted for 77.6％,extranodal involvement＞2 for 43.3％,bone marrow involvement for 60.4％,gastrointestinal involvement for 24.6％,and hepatosplenomegaly for 38.1％.The median follow-up time was 30(2-103)months,overall response rate(ORR)was 41.8％,3-year PFS was not reached,and 3-year and 5-year OS rate was 62.7％and 53.8％,respectively.The ORR of BTK inhibitor group was 56.9％,which was higher than 32.5％of non-BTK inhibitor group(P=0.006).The difference was statistically significant in PFS between the two groups(P=0.002),but was not in OS(P＞0.05).The difference was statistically significant in OS between classical and special morphology(P＜0.001),but was not in PFS(P＞0.05).Ki-67 was an influencing factor for OS and PFS.Multivariate analysis showed that Ki-67,B symptoms,MIPI score,and Ann Arbor stage were independent prognostic factors affecting patients'OS.The second-line treatment regimen was an independent prognostic factor affecting patients'PFS.Conclusions:The chemotherapy regimen containing BTK inhibitors can effectively improve the efficacy and prolong the PFS of R/R MCL patients.Ki-67,B symptoms,MIPI score,and Ann Arbor stage are independent prognostic factors for R/R MCL patients.

Objective To explore and analyse the signals of adverse events of esketamine,and to provide references for rational clinical use of the drug.Methods The adverse event reports of esketamine from the first quarter of 2019 to the fourth quarter of 2023 in the U.S.Food and Drug Administration Adverse Event Reporting System(FAERS)database were collected.The reporting odds ratio(ROR)method and information component(IC)method in the disproportionality analysis and random forest(RF)algorithm,K-nearest neighbor algorithm and extreme gradient boosting(XGBoost)algorithm in machine learning algorithms were used for signal mining of target medicines respectively.The accuracy of machine learning signal detection results was assessed by the area under the curve(AUC).Results A total of 5 247 adverse event records with esketamine as the primary suspect drug were obtained.Using the traditional detection measures of dis-proportionality,138 positive signal results were detected,6 new adverse events including anticholinergic syndrome,urinary incontinence,double vision,pyelonephritis,spontaneous pneumothorax,biliary obstruction,were not included in the FDA drug inserts,and it was found that the drug may be more likely to cause cardiovascular problems.The results of the machine learning training showed that XGBoost algorithm and RF algorithm performed moderately well,with AUC means of 0.928 and 0.921,respectively.A total of 4 new potential adverse drug event signals,diplopia,deterioration of general physical health,suicidal ideation and withdrawal syndrome were detected by XGBoost algorithm and RF algorithm.Conclusion Esketamine is accompanied by some unknown risks while obtaining significant efficacy and adverse events not mentioned in the specification may occur in clinical practice.Healthcare professionals should be fully alert to the relevant adverse events when applying them in clinical treatment and take timely measures to ensure the safety of the treatment.

Objective To analyze the cerebral blood flow changes in patients with newly diagnosed untreated early-onset depression(EOD),using three-dimensional pseudo-continuous arterial spin labeling(3D-pCASL),and to explore its relationship with clinical phenotypes.Methods The Hamilton Depression Scale(HAMD),Childhood Trauma Questionnaire(CTQ)scores,3D T1WI,and 3D-pCASL brain images of 65 untreated EOD patients and 55 healthy volunteers(HC group)were collected.SPM 12 and DPABI_V7.0 software were used to preprocess and analyze the whole brain images in two groups.Xjview software was used to analyze the value of cerebral blood flow(CBF)at the whole brain level of the two groups,and SPSS 25.0 software was used to evaluate the correlation of CBF values with HAMD scores and CTQ scores.Results Compared with the HC group,the CBF of the EOD group was reduced significantly[P＜0.05,cluster size＞50,false discovery rate(FDR)correction]in the right opercular inferior frontal gyrus(t=5.89),right temporo-parieto-occipital(TPO)region(t=6.49),and blood perfusion increased significantly(P＜0.05,cluster size＞50,FDR correction)in the left superior frontal gyrus(t=5.31)and left insular lobe(t=4.70).Conclusion The proportion of EOD patients with childhood trauma experience is relatively large.EOD patients have both reduced areas and increased areas in cerebral perfusion.The CBF value of the right TPO area is negatively correlated with HAMD scores;The CBF value of the left superior frontal gyrus is positively correlated with the total score of CTQ and the index of physical neglect score in CTQ,which is different from the result of studies that do not distinguish between early-onset and late-onset depression.
