Objective: To explore the effectiveness of different intervention modalities on nonsuicidal selfinjury (NSSI) in adolescents, so as to provide an evidencebased basis for the intervention strategy of NSSI in adolescents. Methods: Randomized controlled trials on interventions for adolescent NSSI were retrieved from databases, such as CNKI, Wanfang, VIP, CBM, Web of Science, PubMed, Embase, and Cochrane Library, spanning from the inception of these databases to March 5, 2025. Network Metaanalysis was performed by using Stata 17.0 and Review Manager 5.3 software, and the standardized mean difference (SMD) and 95%CI were used as the effect indicators to compare the differences in the effectiveness of the interventions and rank the effect. Results: A total of 26 articles with 2 034 adolescents with NSSI were included in the study, including 10 intervention modalities:dialectical behavior therapy, emotional regulation intervention, mentalizationbased therapy, family therapy, cutting down programme, cognitive behavioral therapy, narrative therapy, stepped care approach, positive psychological intervention, and acceptance and commitment therapy. The results showed that compared with the treatment as usual, positive psychological intervention [SMD(95%CI)=-2.12(-3.51 to -0.74)], stepped care intervention [SMD(95%CI)=-2.07(-3.43 to -0.71)], and dialectical behavior therapy [SMD(95%CI)=-1.70(-2.60 to -0.80)], cognitive behavioral therapy [SMD(95%CI)=-1.54(-2.61 to -0.48)], and acceptance and commitment therapy[SMD(95%CI)=-1.50(-2.68 to -0.32)] were statistically significant differences in reducing adolescents NSSI behaviors(P<0.05). Positive psychological intervention, stepped care intervention, and dialectical behavior therapy were more effective than the mentalizationbased therapy and the cutting down programme (SMD=-2.08, -2.03, -1.66, -2.06, -2.01, -1.64,P<0.05); the area under the cumulative ranking probability graph revealed that positive psychological intervention may have the best effect in improving NSSI among adolescents (82.5). Conclusions Positive psychological interventions show the best results in improving adolescent NSSI among multiple intervention modalities. It is recommended to give priority to positive psychological interventions in clinical interventions.

Childhood is a critical period for growth and development, and the oral microbiota, as the second most diverse microbial community in the human body, plays a pivotal role in maintaining children's health. Recent studies have demonstrated that dysbiosis of the oral microbiota not only contributes to oral diseases such as dental caries and periodontitis but may also influence the development of children's skeletal, nervous, digestive, cardiovascular, and immune systems through mechanisms involving inflammatory responses, metabolic regulation, and cross-organ communication networks. This review systematically examines the role of the oral microbiota in childhood growth and development and, guided by the core principles of the "active health" model, proposes multiple intervention strategies—including probiotics, xylitol, and mouthwashes—to optimize children's health through early oral microbiota modulation.

Congenital heart disease (CHD) is a congenital malformation resulting from abnormal embryonic development of the heart and great vessels, accounting for approximately 25% of all congenital malformations. Children with CHD are often complicated by short stature. Although surgical treatment can improve their growth and development to a certain extent, some children still experience growth retardation after surgery. Recombinant human growth hormone (rhGH) is the main drug for treating short stature, but its efficacy and safety in the treatment of patients with concomitant CHD warrant further investigation. This article reports six cases of children with CHD and short stature who were treated with rhGH. Through a literature review, we summarize and discuss the therapeutic efficacy, follow-up experiences, and adverse reactions of rhGH treatment, aiming to provide references for clinicians in applying rhGH to treat patients with CHD and short stature.

BACKGROUND:Ca2+expression in astrocytes has been found to be closely related to cognitive function,and the Ca2+signaling pathway regulated by inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptors(IP3R2)and ryanodine receptor(RYR)2 receptors has become a hot spot in the study of cognitive disorder-related diseases. OBJECTIVE:To investigate the expression of Ca2+signals mediated by IP3R2 and RYR2 in hippocampal astrocytes in animal models of delayed encephalopathy after acute carbon monoxide poisoning,and to explore the possible pathogenesis of delayed encephalopathy after acute carbon monoxide poisoning. METHODS:C57BL mice with qualified cognitive function were selected by Morris water maze experiment and randomly divided into control group and experimental group.An animal model of delayed encephalopathy after acute carbon monoxide poisoning was established by static carbon monoxide inhalation in the experimental group,and the same amount of air was inhaled in the control group.Behavioral and neuronal changes,astrocyte specific marker glial fibrillary acidic protein,IP3R2,RYR2 receptor and Ca2+concentration in astrocytes of the two groups were detected using Morris water maze,hematoxylin-eosin staining,western blot,immunofluorescence double labeling and Ca2+fluorescence probe at 21 days after modeling. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:In the Morris water maze,the escape latency of the experimental group was significantly longer than that of the control group(P<0.05).Hematoxylin-eosin staining results showed that in the experimental group,the number of hippocampal pyramidal cells decreased,the cell structure was disordered,and the nucleus was broken and dissolved.Immunofluorescence results showed that IP3R2 and RYR2 were co-expressed with glial fibrillary acidic protein in the hippocampus,and the expressions of IP3R2,RYR2 and glial fibrillary acidic protein were up-regulated in the hippocampus of the experimental group(P<0.05).Western blot analysis showed that the expressions of IP3R2,RYR2,and glial fibrillary acidic protein in the hippocampus of the experimental group were increased(P<0.05).Ca2+concentration in hippocampal astrocytes increased significantly in the experimental group(P<0.05).To conclude,astrocytes may affect Ca2+signals by mediating IP3R2 and RYR2 receptors,then impair the cognitive function of mice with carbon monoxide poisoning,and eventually lead to delayed encephalopathy after acute carbon monoxide poisoning.

Background Indoor air quality directly affects people's health, especially the impact of chemical pollutants in residential indoor air on children and the elderly is more significant. Objective To understand the pollution status of common chemical pollutants in residential indoor air in Shijiazhuang, evaluate the health risks of chemical pollutants to school-age children and the elderly, and provide reference for controlling indoor pollution in residential environment. Methods Using stratified random sampling, a total of 60 households were selected from 2 urban areas and 1 surrounding rural area in Shijiazhuang City, specifically in July 2023 (non-heating season) and December 2023 (heating season), respectively. Relevant data was collected through on-site sampling [including CO, CO₂, PM₁₀, PM_2.5, NO₂, SO₂, O₃, ammonia, formaldehyde, benzene, toluene, xylene, total volatile organic compounds (TVOC), trichloroethylene, and tetrachloroethylene] and survey questionnaires. The pollutant concentrations were evaluated following the Standards for indoor air quality of GB/T 18883-2022, and the inhalation exposure risks of the target population were assessed based on the health risk assessment method. Results In the indoor air of the urban and rural residence in Shijiazhuang City, except for CO, NO₂, SO₂, toluene, and xylene, which did not exceed the standard limits, other pollutants showed varying degrees of exceedance. The non-qualified rates of PM₁₀, PM_2.5, and CO₂ in the urban areas were higher than those in the rural areas (P < 0.05). The seasonal difference analysis showed that the non-qualified rates of PM_2.5, PM₁₀, CO₂, trichloroethylene, and tetrachloroethylene in the urban areas were higher in the heating season than in the non-heating season (P<0.05); the non-qualified rates of ammonia and formaldehyde in the rural areas increased significantly in the non-heating season(P<0.05). The health risk assessment indicated that the maximum hazard quotient (HQ) of tetrachloroethylene for the elderly exceeded 1, while the HQ values for ammonia, formaldehyde, benzene, toluene, xylene, and trichloroethylene remained below 1 for either children or the elderly. For carcinogenic risks, the median carcinogenic risk (CR) of formaldehyde for school-aged children or the elderly fell within the range of 10⁻⁶-10⁻⁴, whereas the median CR values for benzene, trichloroethylene, and tetrachloroethylene were all below 10⁻⁶. Conclusion The primary indoor air pollutants exceeding the national standard limits in residential areas of Shijiazhuang City include CO₂, PM₁₀, TVOC, PM_2.5, formaldehyde, ammonia, trichloroethylene, and tetrachloroethylene. The levels of these pollutants exhibit significant urban-rural and seasonal variations. Special attention should be paid to the non-carcinogenic risk of tetrachloroethylene to the elderly and the carcinogenic risks of formaldehyde to school-age children and the elderly.

Objective Utilizing patient journey mapping to decipher disease management behaviors,barriers,and needs in young and middle-aged liver transplant recipients,providing implications for self-management optimization and quality of life improvement.Methods Using purposive sampling,12 young and middle-aged liver transplant patients who attended outpatient clinics or were hospitalized in liver transplant center of a tertiary hospital in Qingdao were selected for semi-structured interviews from September to November 2024.Thematic extraction and analysis were performed using Colaizzi's 7-step analysis,ultimately resulting in the development of a patient journey map.Results The journey stages were divided into transplantation decision-making period,transplantation waiting period,perioperative period,and post-discharge management period,and the journey key elements were designed as behaviors,barriers,and needs.A total of 25 themes were extracted,including behaviors(such as referrals to higher-level hospitals,verification of treatment options),barriers(such as lack of decision-making autonomy,health information-seeking barriers),and needs(such as shared decision-making,financial assistance).Ultimately,resulting in a map of the disease management journey for young and middle-aged liver transplant recipients.Conclusion The behaviors,barriers,and needs in disease management among young and middle-aged liver transplant recipients demonstrate distinct phase-specific patterns.Healthcare providers should deliver precise and dynamic interventions tailored to each clinical phase,aiming to foster optimal self-management behaviors,address phase-specific banriers,and meet evolving patient needs throughout the transplant continuum.

Objective To analyze and clarify the concept and connotation of care-resistant behavior in dementia patients,so as to provide references for the evaluation and practice of care-resistant behavior in clinical dementia patients.Methods PubMed,Scopus,Web of Science,Cochrane Library,Embase,CINAHL,CNKI,VIP,Wanfang database and Chinese Biomedical Literature Database were systematically searched for the literature on care-resistant behavior in dementia patients.The search time limit was from the establishment of the database to December 2024.Walker and Avant's classical concept analysis method was used to analyze the literature.Results The care-resistant behav-ior in dementia patients included 5 conceptual attributes,including nursing background,perceived threat,unmet needs,lack of understanding and multi-dimensional performance.The antecedent factors include patient factors,care-giver factors,environmental factors and organizational factors.Post-impact includes the impact on patients and the impact on caregivers.Conclusion This study clarified the conceptual attributes,antecedents and post-effects of care-resistant behavior in dementia patients through concept analysis.In the future,researchers should combine the connotation of dementia patients' care-resistant behavior,develop localized assessment tools for dementia patients' care-resistant behavior,and construct targeted intervention programs,so as to improve the quality of nursing staff and enhance the care experience of dementia patients.

Objective To propose an image reconstruction method combining convolutinoal auto-encoder(CAE)and U-Net++network to solve the problems of ill-conditioned sensitivity matrix during cerebral blood flow impedance image reconstruction.Methods Firstly,the CAE model was optimized by introducing dense jump connections in the U-Net++network to enhance the perception of weak features in the sensitivity matrix.Secondly,the feature fusion mechanism in U-Net++network was combined to realize multi-scale fusion of the encoder and decoder in the CAE model,which improved the efficiency of feature transfer.Finally,the simulation data was used for pre-training and convolutional neural networks(CNN)was applied to predicting the conductivity,so as to implement high-precision image recontruction.In order to verify the effectiveness of the proposed method,the reconstruction results for five representative regions of blood flow changes were compared with those by the Tikhonov and conjugate gradient(CG)methods.Results When compared with the Tikhonov and CG methods,the proposed method had the average relative error decreased by 56.96%and 53.05%and the correlation coefficient increased by 19.37%and 5.79%for the reconstruction results of the five representative regions,respectively.The mean value of the structural similarity index by the proposed method was higher than 0.757 for the reconstruction results of the five regions,which was significantly higher than those by the other two methods.Conclusion The proposed method accurately reflects the size and location of blood flow changes in the brain region,enhances the precision and quality of image reconstruction and provides an effective solution for accurate reconstruction of cerebral blood flow impedance images.[Chinese Medical Equipment Journal,2025,46(10):1-8]
