ObjectiveTo investigate the triglyceride-glucose (TyG) index and the level of serum homocysteine (Hcy) in association with the incidence of stroke in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients. MethodsBased on the chronic disease risk factor surveillance cohort in Pudong New Area, Shanghai, excluding those with stroke in baseline survey, T2DM patients who joined the cohort from January 2016 to October 2020 were selected as the research subjects. During the follow-up period, a total of 318 new-onset ischemic stroke patients were selected as the case group, and a total of 318 individuals matched by gender without stroke were selected as the control group. The Cox proportional hazards regression model was used to adjust for confounding factors and explore the serum TyG index and the Hcy biochemical indicator in association with the risk of stroke. ResultsThe Cox proportional hazards regression results showed that after adjusting for confounding factors, the risk of stroke in T2DM patients with 10 μmol·L⁻¹-¹ and Hcy>15 μmol·L⁻¹ was 1.532 times (95%CI: 1.017‒2.309 times, P=0.041) and 1.738 times (95%CI: 1.119‒2.699 times, P=0.014) higher respectively, compared to T2DM patients with Hcy≤10 μmol·L⁻¹. T2DM patients with TyG>9.074 had 1.396 times higher risk of stroke (95%CI: 1.091‒1.787, P=0.008) compared to those with TyG≤9.074. The study found that urea and α1-antitrypsin (α1-AT) were independent risk factors for the incidence of stroke in T2DM patients. For every unit increase in urea andα1-AT, the risk of stroke in T2DM patients increased by 233.6% (HR=3.336, 95%CI: 1.588‒7.009, P=0.001) and 11.3% (HR=1.113, 95%CI: 1.028‒1.205, P=0.008), respectively. Cumulative risk curves showed that Hcy>10 μmol·L⁻¹ and TyG>9.074 accelerated the time to stroke occurrence in T2DM patients. ConclusionElevated levels of Hcy>10 μmol·L⁻¹ and a higher TyG index are risk factors for stroke in T2DM patients. Effective interventions for Hcy and TyG should be conducted for diabetic patients to reduce the incidence of stroke.

In recent years, it has become a new direction in the field of neuroscience to explore the mode characteristics, functional significance and interaction mechanism of resting spontaneous electroencephalography (EEG) and task-evoked EEG. This paper introduced the basic characteristics of spontaneous EEG and task-evoked EEG, and summarized the core role of spontaneous EEG in shaping the adaptability of the nervous system. It focused on how the spontaneous EEG interacted with the task-evoked EEG in the process of task processing, and emphasized that the spontaneous EEG could significantly affect the performance of tasks such as perception, cognition and movement by regulating neural activities and predicting external stimuli. These studies provide an important theoretical basis for in-depth understanding of the principle and mechanism of brain information processing in resting and task states, and point out the direction for further exploring the complex relationship between them in the future.

ObjectiveTo analyze the willingness to receive human papilloma virus (HPV) vaccine and its influencing factors among adult women in Qinghai Province, so as to provide scientific basis for the formulation of targeted health intervention strategies. MethodsA multi-stage whole cluster random sampling method was used to conduct a questionnaire survey on the willingness to receive HPV vaccine in eight cities or states of Qinghai Province from December 2024 to January 2025. Hierarchical multiple regression analyses were used to identify the influencing factors associated with HPV vaccination willingness. ResultsThe results of the 923 participants participated the questionnaire survey revealed that adult women’s HPV vaccination willingness scores differed statistically significant by educational level (F=9.596, P<0.001) and occupation (F=8.494, P<0.001). The hierarchical multiple regression modeling showed that perception of susceptibility (β=0.078, P<0.05), cues to action(β=0.134, P<0.05), and subjective norms (β = 0.407, P<0.001) were positively associated with HPV vaccination willingness among adult women, while perceptual disorder (β =-0.113, P<0.001) was negatively associated with it. ConclusionThe willingness to receive HPV vaccine among adult women in Qinghai Province is influenced by perception of susceptibility, perceptual disorder, cues to action, and subjective norms. Policy makers and public health agencies should therefore adopt targeted strategies, such as optimizing health education, improving vaccine accessibility, lowering barriers to vaccination, and reinforcing supportive social networks, to increase HPV vaccine uptake and ultimately achieve the goal of effective prevention, control, and elimination of cervical cancer.

Autism spectrum disorder（ASD）is a multifactorial，pervasive neurodevelopmental disorder.As the morbidity rate of ASD in children increases year by year，feeding and eating behaviors，as an important and common clinical problem in children with ASD，are gaining more and more attention.Many children with ASD often have food selection issues，chewing problems，food allergy and related gastrointestinal symptoms，and even serious diseases such as eating disorders，which negatively impact on their growth and development.There are many factors affecting feeding and eating behavior problems in children with ASD，such as sensory processing，ritualistic eating behavior，gastrointestinal symptoms，age，and parenting pressure.There are also a variety of interventions that can help to improve feeding and eating behavior problems in children with ASD.Strengthening the understanding of these influencing factors and intervention treatment methods is beneficial for improving the quality of life in children with ASD.

Objective To investigate the epidemiological characteristics and mutation spectrum of monogenic diseases in Chinese population through a large-scale,multicenter carrier screening.Methods This study was conducted among a total of 33 104 participants(16 610 females)from 12 clinical centers across China.Carrier status for 223 genes was analyzed using high-throughput sequencing and different PCR methods.Results The overall combined carrier frequency was 55.58%for 197 autosomal genes and 1.84%for 26 X-linked genes in these participants.Among the 16 669 families,874 at-risk couples(5.24%)were identified.Specifically,584 couples(3.50%)were at risk for autosomal genes,306(1.84%)for X-linked genes,and 16 for both autosomal and X-linked genes.The most frequently detected autosomal at-risk genes included GJB2(autosomal recessive deafness type 1A,393 couples),HBA1/HBA2(α-thalassemia,36 couples),PAH(phenylketonuria,14 couples),and SMN1(spinal muscular atrophy,14 couples).The most frequently detected X-linked at-risk genes were G6PD(G6PD deficiency,236 couples),DMD(Duchenne muscular dystrophy,23 couples),and FMR1(fragile X syndrome,17 couples).After excluding GJB2 c.109G>A,the detection rate of at-risk couples was 3.91%(651/16 669),which was lowered to 1.72%(287/16 669)after further excluding G6PD.The theoretical incidence rate of severe monogenic birth defects was approximately 4.35‰(72.5/16 669).Screening for a battery of the top 22 most frequent genes in the at-risk couples could detect over 95%of at-risk couples,while screening for the top 54 genes further increased the detection rate to over 99%.Conclusion This study reveals the carrier frequencies of 223 monogenic genetic disorders in the Chinese population and provides evidence for carrier screening strategy development and panel design tailored to the Chinese population.In carrier testing,genetic counseling for specific genes or gene variants can be challenging,and the couples need to be informed of these difficulties before testing and provided with options for not screening these genes or gene variants.

In the context of Chinese narrative medicine,narrative thinking is a thinking mode in medical thinking,which is as important as evidence-based thinking,and is also the cornerstone of patient life safety and healthcare quality.Taking"narrative traditional Chinese medicine(TCM)"in the"Chinese narrative medicine discourse system"as the framework,this paper explored the narrative thinking contained in the theory of TCM("observing phenomena to capture essence","acting by combining and integrating","the ease of mind and body","narrative prescription",and"syndrome differentiation and treatment"),the life and health narrative literacy("life-preserving literacy","interpersonal narrative connection awareness"),as well as professional narrative thinking("ability to handle things","ability to deal with things","combination of the four diagnostic methods","treating the disease from its root",and"coordination of body and spirit")possessed by TCM practitioners.Besides,it clarified the important value of narrative thinking in improving healthcare quality,while proposed suggestions for the mechanism of medical education,teaching content,and teaching method based on the concept of Chinese narrative medicine.Looking forward to inspiring more contemporary medical educators and clinical practitioners to value the cultivation of narrative thinking and the practice of narrative medicine.
