To compare the therapeutic effects of short-term spinal cord stimulation (stSCS) and long-term spinal cord stimulation (ltSCS) on patients with prolonged disorders of consciousness(pDoC). Clinical data of patients with pDoC who underwent SCS surgery at Peking University International Hospital from January 2020 to December 2021 were retrospectively included. Patients were divided into the stSCS group and the ltSCS group based on the surgical approach. The Coma recovery scale-revised (CRS-R) was used to assess the level of consciousness before and 3 months after SCS treatment. Based on CRS-R scores, the clinical diagnosis of the patient's level of consciousenss was categorized into four levels: vegetative state, minimally conscious state minus (MCS-), MCS plus (MCS+), and emergence from the minimally conscious state(EMCS). Improvement in the clinical diagnostic level of consciousness was defined as effective treatment, and the therapeutic outcomes of the stSCS and ltSCS groups were compared. 44.8% of patients with pDoC showed improvement in their clinical diagnostic level of consciousness after SCS treatment. Compared to preoperative scores, the CRS-R scores at 3 months postoperatively were significantly increased in both the stSCS and ltSCS groups (both Both stSCS and ltSCS can significantly improve the level of consciousness in patients with pDoC. Compared to ltSCS, stSCS may achieve comparable short-term therapeutic outcomes.

A method for determining volatile organic compounds (VOCs) emitted from medical molecular sieve oxygen concentrators was developed using thermal desorption-gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (TD-GC-MS). The oxygen concentrator gas was sampled at a flow rate of 0.5 L/min through a branched sampling system onto Tenax GR/carbopack B adsorption tubes. The adsorbed compounds were desorbed and introduced using a programmed temperature vaporization inlet system, followed by chromatographic separation on an SH-I-624Sil MS column. Four VOCs (BHT-Q, PTBP, BHT-quinol, and EHB) were detected in the medical oxygen concentrator using this method. Calibration curves for these compounds exhibited excellent linearity ( R 2>0.99) within the range of 3~100 ng. With a sampling volume of 20 L, the detection limit of the four VOCs ranged from 0.003 9 to 0.022 2 μg/m 3. Spike recovery rates for the four VOCs were between 95% and 115%, with relative standard deviations (RSDs) below 5% ( n=6). The method is simple, rapid, highly sensitive, and accurate, making it suitable for VOCs detection in medical molecular sieve oxygen concentrators.

Background:
Condyloma acuminatum (CA) is a common sexually transmitted disease caused by human papillomavirus (HPV). In recent years, research on anal CA has primarily focused on treatment rather than underlying mechanisms. The mechanism of HPV persistence and recurrence in CA require further exploration. It needs multiple researches in mechanisms to focalize treatment targets.
Objective:
To investigate the relationship between intestinal mucosal immunity and the relapse of anal CA and persistent infection.
Methods:
Levels of interferon gamma (IFN-γ) and secretory immunoglobulin A (sIgA) were measured using enzyme-linked immunosorbnent assay in anal mucosal cells obtained from patients treated at Tianjin Union Medical Center from September 2022 to December 2024. All the participants signed Informed Consent and the whole plan was approved by Institutional Review Board in Tianjin Union Medical Center (No. B155).
Results:
The levels of IFN-γ and sIgA significantly decreased after infection, and persistent infection exhibited even lower levels. These two factors increased following treatment, reaching peak concentrations at 4 weeks before decreasing again.
Conclusion
These findings demonstrate a significant association between persistent anal CA infection and dysregulation of intestinal mucosal immunity.

Objective:To investigate the effects of Shenghui Yizhi Decoction on learning and memory ability of SAMP8 mice; To explore its mechanism.Methods:Totally 24 male SAMP8 mice were randomly divided into model group, donepezil hydrochloride group (1 mg/kg) and Shenghui Yizhi Decoction group (15.6 g/kg), with 8 mice in each group, and eight anti rapid aging mice (SAMR1) of the same age and strain were set as the control group. The mice in each group were given corresponding medication or the same volume of distilled water for 90 days. After administration, Morris water maze was used to detect the learning and memory ability and space exploration ability of mice. Immunohistochemistry was used to detect expression of β Amyloid protein 1-42 (Aβ 1-42) in hippocampal. ELISA was used to detect the levels of interleukin-1β (IL-1β), interleukin-6 (IL-6) and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α). Real time PCR was used to detect expressions of NOD-like receptor thermal protein domain associated protein 3 (NLRP3), cysteine protease-1 (Caspase-1), and IL-1β mRNA. Western Blot was used to detect expression of NLRP3, Caspase-1and IL-1β protein. Results:Compared with model group, the spatial exploration ability and memory ability of mice in Shenghui Yizhi Decoction group and donepezil hydrochloride group were improved ( P<0.05, P<0.01), the expression of Aβ 1-42 in hippocampus decreased ( P<0.05, P<0.01), the contents of IL-1β, IL-6 and TNF-α decreased ( P<0.05, P<0.01), and the mRNA and protein expressions of NLRP3, Caspase-1 and IL-1β decreased ( P<0.05, P<0.01). Conclusion:Shenghui Yizhi Decoction can effectively improve the learning and memory ability of SAMP8 mice, and its mechanism may be related to inhibiting the activation of inflammasome and neuroinflammatory response by regulating the NLRP3/ Caspase-1/ IL-1β signaling pathway.

Objective:To explore the latent profile types of capability-opportunity-motivation-behavior in stroke patients and analyze the influencing factors of different latent profiles.Methods:From January to October 2023, totally 596 stroke patients from the Neurology Department of five ClassⅢ Grade A hospitals in Henan Province were selected by stratified random sampling. The patients were surveyed using a general information questionnaire, the Stroke Prevention Knowledge Questionnaire (SPKQ), the Social Support Rating Scale (SSRS), the WHO's Quality of Life Questionnaire- Brief Version (WHOQOL-BREF), the Short Form Health Belief Model Scale (SF-HBMS), and the Health Promoting Lifestyle ProfileⅡ (HPLPⅡ). Latent profile analysis was used to classify the capability-opportunity-motivation-behavior characteristics of stroke patients, and multiple logistic regression was conducted to explore the influencing factors of different latent profiles.Results:Three latent profiles of capability-opportunity-motivation-behavior in stroke patients were identified, including low capability-opportunity-motivation-behavior with high health beliefs (32.4%, 193/596), moderate capability-opportunity-motivation-behavior with insufficient health beliefs (47.5%, 283/596), and high capability-opportunity-motivation-behavior with lack of social support (20.1%, 120/596). Multiple logistic regression analysis showed that educational level, smoking history, family history, body mass index, and Charlson Comorbidity Index score were influencing factors of different latent profiles ( P<0.05) . Conclusions:Stroke patients exhibit distinct classifications of capability-opportunity-motivation-behavior. Targeted interventions should be conducted based on the characteristics of each category to improve health behavior management outcomes in patients.

Objective:To explore the mediating effect of rumination between self-perceived burden (SPB) and stigma in stroke patients, so as to provide theoretical basis for the development of targeted nursing interventions in clinical practice.Methods:In September 2022, cluster sampling was used to select 1 126 stroke patients admitted to Department of Neurology of five ClassⅢ Grade A hospitals in Henan Province as subjects. General Information Questionnaire, Self-Perceived Burden Scale (SPBS), Stroke Stigma Scale (SSS), and Chinese Version of Event Related Rumination Inventory (C-ERRI) were used to investigate stroke patients. Pearson correlation analysis was used to explore the correlation between SPB, rumination, and stigma. AMOS 28.0 software was used to establish the structural equation model, and Bootstrap method was used to test the mediating effect.Results:A total of 1 126 questionnaires were distributed, and 1 026 valid questionnaires were collected, with a valid response rate of 91.12% (1 026/1 126). SPBS score of 1 026 stroke patients was (28.68±8.32), the SSS score was (40.53±9.48) and the C-ERRI score was (25.43±12.62). Pearson correlation analysis showed that SPB in stroke patients was positively correlated with stigma and rumination ( P<0.01), and rumination was positively correlated with stigma ( P<0.01). Bootstrap mediating effect test showed that rumination partially mediated the relationship between SPB and stigma in stroke patients, accounting for 55.15% of the total effect. Conclusions:SPB of stroke patients both directly affect stigma and indirectly affect stigma through rumination. Clinical nursing workers should promptly evaluate patients' SPB, pay attention to the mediating role of rumination, develop effective psychological intervention programs, implement personalized and targeted nursing measures, relieve patients' stigma, and improve treatment and rehabilitation compliance.
