Objective: To compare the different therapeutic effects of acupuncture and Phenolphthalein for constipation due to intestinal qi stagnation. Methods:A total of 50 patients with constipation due to intestinal qi stagnation were randomly divided into an acupuncture group and a medication group by the random digital table, 25 cases in each group. The patients in the acupuncture group were treated by puncturing Gongsun (SP 4), Sanyinjiao (SP 6), Taichong (LR 3), Zusanli (ST 36), Shangjuxu (ST 37), Hegu (LI 4), Lieque (LU 7), and Tianshu (ST 25), once every day, and 7 d as one course, for continuous 3 courses; while the patients in the medication group were given Phenolphthalein, 7 d as one course, for continuous 3 courses. Compared the Cleveland clinic constipation score (CCS) between the two groups after one course, 3 courses and 3 months after the treatment, as well as the frequency of defecation within one week. Results:After one week of treatment, CCS scores and frequency of defecation per week were significantly changed in both groups compared with those before treatment (P<0.05), and CCS scores and frequency of defecation per week were improved more significantly in the patients of the medication group than in those of the acupuncture group (P<0.01). After 3 weeks of treatment, CCS scores and frequency of defecation per week were significantly changed in both groups compared with those before treatment (P<0.05), and CCS scores and frequency of defecation per week were improved more significant in the patients of the acupuncture group than in those of the medication group (P<0.05). Three months after the end of treatment, CCS scores and frequency of defecation per week were significantly changed in both groups compared with those before treatment (P<0.05), and CCS scores and frequency of defecation per week were improved more significantly in the patients of the acupuncture group than in those of the medication group (P<0.05). Conclusion:Acupuncture and medication are effective in the treatment of constipation due to intestinal qi stagnation. Their short-term therapeutic effect is similar, but the long-term therapeutic effect is better in the acupuncture group than in the medication group.

Objective :
To systematically evaluate the incidence of suicide ideation among HIV/AIDS patients in China, so as to provide insights into prevention of suicidal behaviors among HIV/AIDS patients.
Methods :
All publications pertaining to suicide ideation were jointly retrieved in electronic databases from database creation to May 22, 2022, including CNKI, CMB, Wanfang Data, VIP, PubMed and Web of Science. The quality of literatures was evaluated using the 11 quality indicators for cross-sectional studies recommended by the United States Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ), and a meta-analysis was performed using the software Stata 16.0. The stability of the study results was evaluated using sensitivity analysis, and the publication bias was evaluated using Begg's test.
Results :
A total of 1 557 publications were screened and 32 literatures covering 12 917 HIV/AIDS patients were included in the final analysis, including 21 Chinese publications and 11 English publications, and 19 high-quality publications and 13 moderate-quality publications. Meta-analysis showed that the incidence of suicide ideation was 30.3% (95%CI: 23.2%-37.4%) among HIV/AIDS patients in China, and subgroup analysis showed higher incidence of suicide ideation in unemployed HIV/AIDS patients than in employed patients (P<0.05). Sensitivity analysis showed stable study results, and Begg's test revealed no significant publication bias.
Conclusions
The incidence of suicide ideation is 23.2% to 37.4% among HIV/AIDS patients in China. High attention paid to psychological health and early psychological interventions are required to prevent the development of suicide ideation.

ObjectiveBoth kilovolt (KV) cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) and KV radiography can determine set-up errors for patients with head-and-neck cancer.This study is to compare their performance.Methods16 patients with head and neck cancer were enrolled in this study.There were 160 sets of CBCT and corresponding orthogonal radiography images.Through registration of CBCT images with the planning CT images,and registration of radiography images with the digitally reconstructed radiographs,translational set-up errors were determined along left-right (x),super-inferior (y),and anterior-posterior (z) directions.Pearson correlation analysis was performed to evaluate the correlation of the set up errors determined by the two methods,and Bland-Altman plot analysis was used to assess the coincidence of these two methods.ResultsThe Pearson coefficient of correlation along all three directions was less than 0.01,and R2 was 0.95,0.84,0.81 on x,y,z,respectively.That means high correlation for two methods.The Bland-Altman plot analysis showed that the 95% agreement limits of agreement were within preset 2 mm tolerance (x[ 1.3mm,- 1.2mm],y[ 1.6mm,- 1.1mm],z[0.8mm,-1.4 mm] ),which indicates an agreement exists for two methods.ConclusionsFor determination of set-up errors for patients with head and neck cancer,KV radiography is equivalent to CBCT.Considering CBCT delivers higher dose than KV radiography,but provides more soft tissue information.We suggest to use these two methods combinative in clinic.
