Objective To explore the effect of a multimodal electroencephalogram ( EEG) data visualiza-tion system on the motor imagery ability of stroke survivors. Methods Twenty stroke patients were randomly di-vided into an experimental group and a control group, each of 10. Both groups were provided with brain-computer interface-based motor imagery ( MI) training. At the same time, the experimental group was monitored and guided using an online, multimodal EEG data visualization system developed in our department. The classification accuracy ( CA) and event-related desynchronization ( ERD) of the 2 groups′ motor imagery were compared before and after the treatment. Results Before the treatment, no significant differences in the average CA of MI were found be-tween the experiment group (50.92±2.08) and the control group (49.35±4.20)(P>0.05). After the treatment, however, the experimental group′s average CA had increased to (64.52±5.27), significantly higher than that of the control group (51.18±5.02). When the stroke patients imaged affected upper extremity movements, obvious ERD was observed in the α frequency around the bilateral central motor regions of both groups, especially in the experi-mental group, but without significant differences between the two groups. However, no significant changes were found in the ERD of theβwaves of the two groups( P>0.05) . Conclusion The proposed online multimodal elec-troencephalogram data visualization system can help stroke patients imagine movements actively. It is worth sprea-ding in clinical practice.

Objective: To explore the longitudinal changes and related predictive factors of anxiety and intolerance of uncertainty (IU) among Chinese college students, so as to provide theoretical reference for promoting students mental health. Methods: Intolerance of Uncertainty Scale-short Form and the 7 item Generalized Anxiety Disorder Scale were administered among 5 683 students from 22 universities in Guangdong Province from September 10 to October 17, 2021 (T1, baseline survey), and from March 15 to April 22, 2023 (T2). Using paired sample t-test to analyze the changes in anxiety and IU among college students, a linear regression model was established to explore factors that can predict anxiety, IU and their changes during T1 and T2 periods. Results: During the T1 period, the average scores of anxiety and IU among college students were (3.26±3.46, 34.88±7.96), while during the T2 period, they were (4.41±4.16, 36.40±8.07). During the T2 period, the levels of anxiety and IU among college students were higher than those during the T1 period ( t=19.59, 13.67, P <0.01). The linear regression results showed that age ( B = -0.02 ), moderate ( B =-0.18) and poor ( B =-0.88) mental health status, as well as online browsing of Corona Virus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) epidemic (later called as epidemic) related information for >1-<3 hours ( B =-0.30) and ≥3 hours ( B =-0.22), all of which could negatively predict changes in anxiety during T1 to T2 periods. Living in rural areas ( B =0.11) could positively predict changes in anxiety during T1 to T2 periods ( P <0.05). Moderate ( B =-0.19) and poor ( B =-0.47) mental health status, browsing epidemic related information online for >1-<3 hours ( B =-0.32) and ≥3 hours ( B =-0.33), academic performance being moderately affected by the epidemic ( B =-0.10), and personal planning being moderately affected by the epidemic ( B =-0.13) and severely affected ( B =-0.22), all of which could negatively predict changes in IU during T1 to T2 periods ( P <0.05). Conclusions Levels of anxiety and intolerance of uncertainty increases significantly after epidemic. Mental health status of college students should need long term monitoring, and students with poor mental health should need special attention.

OBJECTIVE: To explore the relationship between materialistic values and depression in medical students. METHODS: A random sample of 1158 college students from a medical university in Guangdong Province was investigated using the materialism tendency scale (MTS), the simplified version of purpose in life test (PIL-SF) and the patient health questionnaire (PHQ-9). RESULTS: The survey showed that 17.33% of the students had obvious depressive symptoms. A negative correlation was found between the materialistic values and the meaning in life (=-0.229, < 0.01) in these students; materialistic values were positively correlated with depression (=0.246, < 0.01), and the meaning in life was negatively correlated with depression (=-0.476, < 0.01). Meaning in life mediated the relationship between materialistic values and depression, which accounted for 41.2% of the total effects. CONCLUSIONS Meaning in life partially mediates the relationship between materialistic values and depression.

Objective:To investigate the clinical application and effect of orbicularis oculi muscle shaping in lower blepharoplasty.Methods:A retrospective analysis was performed on the clinical data of 32 cases of flabby blepharoplasty patients admitted to the Orthopedic Surgery Clinic of Sichuan people＇s Hospital from October 2018 to September 2019. At the same time of transcutaneous blepharoplasty, 32 patients were treated with orbicularis oculi muscle shaping to remove the relaxed orbicularis oculi muscle, to reconstruct the annular strength and shape of the orbicularis oculi muscle, to strengthen the supporting structure of the lower eyelid, to reset the relationship between the external canthus orbicularis muscle and the skin, and then to reconstruct the soft tissue filling degree of the lower eyelid margin. The safety, efficacy and stability of the operation were evaluated by Barton grading, postoperative complications and scoring before and after operation and satisfactory analysis based on patients＇ satisfaction scale after operation.Results:All the patients were free of postoperative infection and healed at stage I. There were 2 cases of ecchymosis, 3 cases of ocular foreign body sensation, and no cases of infection, lower eyelid retraction, lower eyelid ectropion, or retrobulbous hematoma. The mean Barton score of all patients before surgery was 1.88±0.49, and the mean Barton score after surgery was 0.53±0.51. The t-test showed that the difference was statistically significant ( t=15.75, P<0.05), and the postoperative lacrimal groove deformity was improved. According to the score of satisfaction scale, 7 people were basically satisfied (21.88%) and 25 people were very satisfied (78.12%). Conclusions:Forming in the orbicularis oculi muscle relaxation eyelid bag type of prosthesis, in addition to the part of the orbicularis oculi muscle relaxation, deformation, and widely shed canthus outside skin and orbicularis connection, make the next eyelid edge to reproduce the full shape, obviously the bulging under the eyelid relaxation, the shape of the degree of repair, lateral canthus wrinkles tail department have also improven, restoring the full eyelid platform. The operation has strong pertinence, simple procedures, less complications and better long-term effect.

Objective To propose a quick and low-cost personalized diabetic foot modeling and insole design scheme, so as to reduce the plantar pressure accurately. Methods The foot model of the patient was constructed by scaling the model with foot feature parameters, to make biomechanical analysis on plantar pressure. By means of numerical mapping model of insole elasticity and plantar pressure, the three-dimensional (3D) personalized insole model with gradient modulus was constructed. The insole was then manufactured via 3D printing technology and used for experimental validation. Results The related mechanical parameters from finite element prediction of the foot model constructed by the scaling modeling method were close to those of the CT reconstructed model, and the maximum error was controlled within 15%. Compared with wearing the normal insole, the peak pressure of the personalized insole was effectively reduced by 20%. The time and economic cost of this simplified design was reduced by approximately 90%. Conclusions The design scheme of the diabetes insole shortens the design cycle, and the personalized insole can effectively and accurately reduce the sole pressure, and reduce the risk of foot ulcer, which provides a technical basis for the promotion of the personalized diabetes insole.
