AIM:To analyze the association between mobile phone addiction and high myopia among college students.METHODS:We conducted a cross-sectional questionnaire survey in December 2022 on all students of a university in Shaanxi Province, and the questionnaire included socio-demographic characteristics, mobile phone addiction, high myopia, and lifestyle. Binary Logistic regression model was used to analyze the association between mobile phone addiction and high myopia among college students.RESULTS:A total of 19 952 college students were included. The prevalence of high myopia was 7.31%. The rate of mobile phone addiction was 25.68%, and the mobile phone addiction score was 37.59±13.38. The incidence of high myopia among college students with mobile phone addiction was higher than non-mobile phone addiction(P<0.001). After adjusting for socio-demographic characteristics and lifestyle, the risk of high myopia among college students with mobile phone addiction was 1.274 times(95%CI:1.131-1.434)higher than non-mobile phone addiction. For each point increase of total mobile phone addiction score, withdrawal symptoms score, salience score, social comfort score, and mood changes score, the risk of high myopia among college students increased by 0.9%(95%CI:1.005-1.013), 2.0%(95%CI:1.010-1.030), 2.6%(95%CI:1.010-1.043), 4.8%(95%CI:1.030-1.066), and 3.3%(95%CI:1.014-1.052), respectively.CONCLUSION:Mobile phone addiction is significantly associated with the increased risk of high myopia among college students, and early intervention of mobile phone use may reduce the risk of high myopia among college students.

BACKGROUND:The assessment of asymmetric gait quality plays a pivotal role in guiding rehabilitation training;however,the link between gait quality and kinematic-kinetic gait parameters remains ambiguous. OBJECTIVE:To formulate a machine-learning model for evaluating gait quality based on gait parameters,identify factors sensitive to gait quality from asymmetric gait parameters,investigate the relationship between gait indicators and gait quality,and provide guidance for asymmetric gait training and rehabilitation. METHODS:An asymmetric gait database was established through the creation of asymmetric conditions.Kinematic and kinetic data were collected from 8 young and 8 elderly subjects(all male,right dominant population)during gait tests.Gait quality for each test data set was assessed using symmetry indices,resulting in the creation of a gait parameter-gait quality dataset.Utilizing the Random Forest algorithm,a gait quality evaluation model was developed and key quality parameter factors were identified through differential analysis.This model was iteratively refined.The model's performance was evaluated through 10-fold cross-validation,and its effectiveness was verified using the cross-validation dataset. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)A gradient test was designed to categorize gait quality into optimal,suboptimal,intermediate,and poor groups,with 759,329,133,and 125 instances,respectively.(2)The application of the Random Forest algorithm in gait quality assessment was explored.A relationship model was established between gait indicators and gait quality,yielding a predictive model accuracy of 95.99%.(3)The 13 main parameters significantly influencing asymmetric gait quality were identified through the Random Forest model's feature importance ranking.(4)An analysis of gait quality sensitivity factors using the 13 important parameters led to the identification of five key sensitivity indexes.The Random Forest model utilizing these sensitivity factors achieved a predictive accuracy of 94.20%.

Chronic kidney disease（CKD）has a significant impact on global public health and is one of the important factors leading to the rise of incidence rate and mortality of non communicable diseases.Intestinal microecology is involved in many pathophysiological activities，such as immunity and nutrient absorption.With proposal of the concept of intestine-kidney axis in 2002，researchers found that the decline of glomerular filtration rate led to accumulation of uremic toxins in intestine，destroyed the intestinal mucosal barrier，led to the translocation of toxins，activated the systemic oxidative stress response，further promoted the progress of CKD.This article reviewed the function of gut microbiota，intestine-gut kidney axis，and the application of microbial preparations in CKD.

Objective:To observe the clinical efficacy of Qigui Tangtongning Granules in the treatment of diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN) with qi deficiency and blood stasis.Methods:Prospective cohort study. A total of 80 DPN patients with Qi deficiency and blood stasis in Endocrinology Department of the First Affiliated Hospital of Anhui University of Chinese Medicine from May 2021 to May 2022 who met the inclusion criteria were divided into 2 groups by random number table method, with 40 cases in each group. The control group was treated with epalrestat on the basis of routine hypoglycemia, and the treatment group was treated with Qigui Tangtongning Granules on the basis of control group. Both groups were treated for 8 weeks. TCM syndromes were scored before and after treatment. Disease severity was assessed using the Toronto Clinical Scoring System (TCSS). The motor nerve conduction velocity (MNCV) and sensory nerve conduction velocity (SNCV) of median nerve and common peroneal nerve were detected by electromyography/induced potentiometer. Serum CRP, TNF-α and IL-6 were detected by ELISA, fasting blood glucose (FPG) and two hours post-meal blood glucose (2 hPG) were detected by automatic biochemical analyzer, and glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c) was detected by automatic HBA1C analyzer. Adverse reactions were recorded and clinical efficacy was evaluated.Results:The total effective rate was 95.0% (38/40) in the treatment group and 77.5% (31/40) in the control group, the difference between the two groups was statistically significant ( χ2=5.17, P=0.023). After treatment, the TCM syndrome score and TCSS score of the treatment group were significantly lower than those in the control group ( t=-3.19 and -7.63, P<0.01); Median nerve SNCV [(47.90±4.51) m/s vs. (44.76±3.72) m/s, t=3.40], MNCV [(53.79±3.65) m/s vs. (51.32±4.25) m/s, t=2.79] and common peroneal nerve SNCV [(44.21±2.08) m/s vs. (40.51±2.49) m/s, t=7.23], MNCV [(44.63±4.72) m/s vs. (41.36±4.87) m/s, t=3.05] were significantly higher than those in the control group ( P<0.01); FPG [(5.05±0.63) mmol/L vs. (7.05±1.23) mmol/L, t=-9.17], 2 hPG [(9.10±1.64) mmol/L vs. (12.19±2.61) mmol/L, t=-6.35], HbA1c [(6.79±0.90) % vs. (7.22±1.02) %, t=-2.02] were significantly lower than those in the control group ( P<0.01 or P<0.05); TNF-α [(15.75±5.44) ng/L vs. (32.01±5.33) ng/L, t=-13.51], hs-CRP [(2.58±0.80) mg/L vs. (3.79±1.04) mg/L, t=-5.83], IL-6 [(18.20±4.92) ng/L vs. (29.97±5.18) ng/L, t=-10.41] were significantly lower than those in the control group ( P<0.01). No obvious adverse reactions were observed in 2 groups during treatment. Conclusion:Qigui Tangtongning Granules combined with conventional Western medicine can improve nerve conduction velocity, reduce inflammation and improve clinical efficacy in DPN patients with Qi-deficiency and blood-stasis syndrome.

【Objective】 To reduce the incidence of postoperative intestinal obstruction, we tried to improve surgical techniques by closing the cavity formed during radical cystectomy + ileal passage (Bricker) via laparoscopy to prevent the formation of abdominal hernia. 【Methods】 During Oct.2018 and Feb.2022, 41 patients were involved (conventional group). After standard laparoscopic radical cystectomy + pelvic lymphadenectomy, the ileum channel was established. The right medial retroperitoneum was sutured to cover the mesothelium and end of the ileum channel under open operation or endoscope. The space between the ureter and mesothelium of the ileum channel was sealed, and the end of the ileum channel and both ureters were externalized. During Feb.2022 and Dec.2022, 15 patients were involved (modified group). The right inner and outer lateral peritoneums below the ileal conduit were sutured to "bottom out" the gap between the ileal conduit and the right abdominal wall in addition to standard procedures. The recovery of intestinal function and incidence of bowel obstruction were compared between the two groups. 【Results】 In the conventional group, the intestinal function recovered within 2 to 6 days after surgery, with a median ventilation time of 3 days. Intestinal obstruction occurred in 3 patients, 2 of whom improved after conservative treatment while 1 underwent surgical exploration after ineffective conservative therapy. There were no significant differences in the time of discharge and ventilation between the two groups, but no intestinal obstruction occurred in the modified group. 【Conclusion】 Peritoneal externalization at the end of ileal passage can reduce the incidence of intra-abdominal hernia and postoperative intestinal obstruction, which is worthy of clinical application.

BACKGROUND: Epilepsy accounts for a significant portion of the global disease burden. However, little is known about the disease burden of epilepsy in China and its provinces. METHODS: We assessed the burden of epilepsy in China and its provinces, municipalities, and autonomous regions from 1990 to 2019. Burden was measured as incidence, prevalence, deaths, years lived with disability, years of life lost, and disability-adjusted life years (DALYs), by age, sex, year, and province. We used the Socio-Demographic Index (SDI) to determine the association between the provincial development level and age-standardized DALY rates of epilepsy from 1990 to 2019. RESULTS: In 2019, epilepsy caused 1367.51 thousand (95% uncertainty interval [UI]: 979.92-1837.61 thousand) DALYs, and the age-standardized DALY rate was 99.77 (95% UI: 71.33-133.52)/100,000. The age-standardized incidence and prevalence rates for epilepsy in China were 24.65/100,000 and 219.69/100,000, increased by 45.00% (95% UI: 8.03-98.74%) and 35.72% (95% UI: 0.47-86.19%) compared with that in 1990, respectively. From 1990 to 2019, the proportion of DALY caused by epilepsy in the age group under 25 years steadily decreased. The proportion of DALYs caused by epilepsy in people aged 50 years and over increased from 9.45% and 10.22% in 1990 to 29.01% and 32.72% for male and female individuals in 2019, respectively. The highest age-standardized mortality rates were seen in Tibet (4.26 [95% UI: 1.43-5.66]/100,000), Qinghai (1.80 [95% UI: 1.15-2.36]/100,000), and Yunnan (1.30 [95% UI: 0.88-1.62]/100,000), and the lowest mortality rates were in Guangdong (0.48 [95% UI: 0.39-0.64]/100,000), Zhejiang (0.56 [95% UI: 0.44-0.70]/100,000), and Shanghai (0.57 [95% UI: 0.41-0.73]/100,000). The age-standardized DALY rates across the country and in provinces, municipalities, and autonomous regions generally decreased as their SDI increased. CONCLUSIONS The disease burden of epilepsy is still heavy in China, especially in the western provinces. The incidence and prevalence of epilepsy increased between 1990 and 2019, and the burden of epilepsy in the elderly increases gradually. This study provides evidence on epilepsy prevention and care of different regions in China.

Objective:To explore the correlation between carotid blood flow and the parameters derived by pulse oximetry Plethysmographic waveform in cardiopulmonary resuscitation, so as to provide a new index for carotid blood flow monitoring in cardiopulmonary resuscitation.Methods:Seven male domestic pigs were utilized for cardiac arrest model through ventricular fibrillation induced by electrical stimulation. Eight minutes after cardiac arrest, artificial chest compression was given for 4 min, and epinephrine 20 μg/kg was injected intravenously at 2 min after chest compression. The compression frequency, compression depth, right carotid blood flow, pulse oximetry plethysmographic waveform, aortic pressure, right atrium pressure and end tidal carbon dioxide partial pressure were continuously monitored and recorded. From 30 s to 4 min after chest compression, the values of the mean right carotid blood flow, the area under curve (AUC) of pulse oximetry plethysmographic waveform, the mean perfusion index, the mean coronary perfusion pressure and the average end-tidal carbon dioxide partial pressure during 6 s before time point were calculated every 30 s. The correlations between right carotid blood flow and the AUC of pulse oximetry plethysmographic waveform and perfusion index were analyzed respectively.Results:Ventricular fibrillation was induced successfully in seven animals. There were no significant differences in the mean chest compression frequency and depth per min during 4 min of chest compression. Right carotid blood flow at 30 s after chest compression was (92.7±32.7) mL/min, and decreased to (48.5±23.5) mL/min at 1 min after chest compression ( P<0.05). There was no significant difference in blood flow before and after epinephrine injection ( P>0.05). The AUC of the blood oxygen plethysmographic waveform and perfusion index showed synchronous change trends with right carotid blood flow. Both coronary perfusion pressure and end-tidal carbon dioxide partial pressure showed different change trends with right carotid blood flow. There was a positive correlation between the right carotid blood flow and the AUC of blood oxygen plethysmographic waveform ( r=0.66, P<0.01), and also a positive correlation between right carotid blood flow and perfusion index ( r=0.57, P<0.01). Conclusions:Carotid blood flow is positively correlated with the AUC of blood oxygen plethysmographic waveform and perfusion index in a porcine model of cardiopulmonary resuscitation. Real-time monitoring of the two parameters derived by pulse oximetry plethysmographic waveform can reflect the changes of carotid blood flow to a certain extent.

Objective:To analyze the changes of mean arterial pressure (MAP) and end expiratory carbon dioxide (ETCO 2) in patients after emergency endotracheal intubation (ETI). To explore the values of MAP and ETCO 2 monitoring in early prediction of severe cardiovascular collapse (CVC) after emergency ETI. Methods:The clinical data of adult patients who underwent ETI from March 2015 to May 2020 were collected consecutively in the emergency departments of Peking Union Medical College Hospital. The values of MAP and ETCO 2 were observed and recorded at 5, 10, 30, 60 and 120 min after intubation. According to whether severe CVC occurred after ETI, the patients were divided into the severe CVC group and non-severe CVC group. The values of MAP and ETCO 2 were compared at the same time points between the two groups and the adjacent time points within the groups. The correlation between MAP and ETCO 2 after ETI was also analyzed. ROC curve was used to analyze the ability of MAP and ETCO 2 at 5 min and 10 min after ETI to predict severe CVC. Results:Totally 116 patients were enrolled in this study, among them 75 (64.7%) cases had severe CVC after ETI. The majority were male and elderly patients in the severe CVC group. The values of MAP and ETCO 2 in 5, 10, 30, 60 and 120 min after ETI in severe CVC group were significantly lower than those in the non-severe CVC group. The values of MAP and ETCO 2 in the two groups showed simultaneous decrease from 5 min to 30 min after ETI, reached the lowest value at 30 min after ETI, and appeared the synchronous recover from then to 120 min after ETI. After ETI, the changes of MAP was correlated with that of ETCO 2 ( rs = 0.653, P<0.01). At 5 min after ETI, MAP could predict severe CVC (AUC=0.86, P<0.01), MAP≤72 mmHg was the best cutoff value (sensitivity 78.7%, specificity 87.8%); ETCO 2 could also predict severe CVC (AUC=0.85, P<0.01), and ETCO 2≤35 mmHg was the best cutoff value (sensitivity 77.3%, specificity 85.4%). At 10 min after ETI, MAP could predict severe CVC (AUC = 0.90, P<0.01), MAP≤67 mmHg was the best cutoff value (sensitivity 89.3%, specificity 85.4%), ETCO 2 could also predict severe CVC (AUC=0.87, P<0.01), and ETCO 2≤33 mmHg was the best cutoff value (sensitivity 81.3%, specificity 78.0%). There was no significant difference in the ability of prediction between any two indexes of the MAP and ETCO 2 at 5 min and 10 min after ETI ( P>0.05). Conclusions:Patients with severe CVC after ETI have early signs of decreased MAP and ETCO 2, but the delayed recognition and insufficient intervention may be related to the occurrence and development of severe CVC. MAP and ETCO 2 at the early stage after ETI have high accuracy in predicting severe CVC. MAP≤72 mmHg, ETCO 2≤35 mmHg at 5 min after intubation, MAP≤67 mmHg and ETCO 2≤33 mmHg at 10 minutes after intubation all suggest the possibility of severe CVC.

Acute abdomen in pregnancy can be divided into pregnancy-related and non-pregnancy-related type. This article reviewed the different types of acute abdomen caused by gynecological problems during pregnancy. Also, the progress of laparoscopic surgical technique and the perioperative management and the influence of the operation on pregnancy outcomes in patients who developed acute abdomen and underwent laparoscopic surgery in pregnancy were also analyzed, to provide information for the application of emergency laparoscopic surgery in pregnancy.

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the influence factors of different compression modes on restoration of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) and outcomes in patients with cardiac arrest. METHODS: Based on the national database of emergency cardiac arrest treatment, the clinical data of 517 patients with cardiac arrest admitted to 14 teaching hospitals in 7 provinces from July 2015 to July 2017 were enrolled. According to the way of compression, the patients were divided into mechanical compression group and hands-only compression group. The demographic data, resuscitation parameters [compression frequency, monitored ventilation frequency, duration of resuscitation, drug usage] and physiological parameters [end-expiratory partial pressure of carbon dioxide (P_ETCO₂), pulse oxygen saturation (SpO₂)] were collected. The ROSC rates and 24-hour, 7-day, 28-day survival rates were compared between the two groups. Multivariate Logistic regression model was used to analyze the influencing factors of ROSC according to whether the duration of resuscitation was longer than 60 minutes. RESULTS: Of 517 patients, 24 were excluded because of incomplete data. A total of 493 patients were enrolled in the analysis with 214 patients in the mechanical compression group, and 279 in the hands-only compression group. Compared with hands-only compression group, the patients in mechanical compression group had higher age, proportion of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and P_ETCO₂, fewer un-shockable rhythm, less compression rate, more epinephrine and sodium bicarbonate usage, and longer duration of cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR). Although the rate of ROSC in the mechanical compression group was higher than that in the hands-only compression group [36.9% (79/214) vs. 30.5% (85/279)], there was no significant difference in the rate of ROSC between the two groups [odds ratio (OR) = 1.10, 95% confidence interval (95%CI) = 0.68-1.76, P = 0.693], even after adjusted for con-variables by multivariate Logistic regression (OR = 1.21, 95%CI = 0.54-1.88, P = 0.054). Furthermore, 24-hour, 7-day, and 28-day survival rate also showed no significant difference in both univariate model and multivariate model. Comparisons of resuscitation parameters and physiological parameters between the two groups showed that when the duration of CPR < 60 minutes, the pressing frequency of the mechanical compression group was lower, ventilation frequency and adrenaline dosage were higher; and when the duration of CPR ≥ 60 minutes, the adrenaline dosage and P_ETCO₂ of the mechanical compression group were higher. Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that among patients with a duration of CPR < 60 minutes, un-shockable rhythm (OR = 0.29, 95%CI = 0.05-0.75, P = 0.015), compression rate > 120 times/min (OR = 0.39, 95%CI = 0.24-0.64, P < 0.001), ventilation frequency > 40 times/min (OR = 0.50, 95%CI = 0.31-0.84, P = 0.034) were independent risk factors for ROSC; while P_ETCO₂ ≥ 20 mmHg (1 mmHg = 0.133 kPa) was protective factor for ROSC (OR = 2.79, 95%CI = 1.88-4.49, P < 0.001). However, for patients with CPR duration ≥ 60 minutes, ≥ 65 years old (OR = 0.33, 95%CI = 0.15-0.67, P = 0.018), admission at night (OR = 0.74, 95%CI = 0.59-0.94, P = 0.035), un-shockable rhythm (OR = 0.38, 95%CI = 0.25-0.65, P = 0.001), non-cardiogenic cardiac arrest (OR = 0.35, 95%CI = 0.25-0.48, P = 0.013), previous history of diabetes mellitus (OR = 0.46, 95%CI = 0.27-0.82, P = 0.015) were independent risk factors for ROSC, and cardiac arrest occurred in emergency room (OR = 2.02, 95%CI = 1.02-2.92, P = 0.023), mechanical compression (OR = 1.41, 95%CI = 1.12-1.75, P = 0.043), P_ETCO₂ ≥ 20 mmHg (OR = 2.94, 95%CI = 1.34-4.54, P = 0.012), previous history of acute coronary syndrome (ACS; OR = 2.47, 95%CI = 1.15-3.78, P = 0.043) were protective factors for ROSC. CONCLUSIONS Mechanical compression CPR had no significant differences in the rate of ROSC and 24-hour, 7-day, 28-day survival rates for cardiac arrest patients in the emergency departments compared with hands-only compression CPR. For those who undergone CPR duration more than 60 minutes, mechanical compression was associated with a higher rate of ROSC.
