Objective: To analyze the potential categories and influencing factors of the compliance trajectory of orthokeratology lenses (OK lens) in myopic children and adolescents, so as to provide a basis for dynamic and accurate intervention of OK lens compliance in myopic children and adolescents. Methods: From January to June 2024, 310 myopic children and adolescents wearing OK lens were selected as research subjects from the Ophthalmology Medical Center of Cangzhou Central Hospital using a convenient sampling method. Data were collected at four time points: when the glasses were first fitted (T0), 2 weeks after fitting (T1), 1 month later (T2), 3 months later (T3), and 6 months later (T4). The data collection methods included general information questionnaires, compliance surveys for OK lens wearers, the Behavior Rating Inventory of Executive Function-Self-report Version (BRIEF-SR), family support scales, and a self-made questionnaire on myopia control attitudes. A growth mixed model was used to identify the trajectory categories of compliance with OK lens wearing among myopic children and adolescents, and multiple Logistic regression analysis was employed to examine the influencing factors. Results: The compliance with OK lens among myopic children and adolescents were roughly divided into four developmental trajectories: C1 exemplary adherent (58 cases, 18.71%), C2 gradual progressor (130 cases, 41.94%), C3 fluctuating (85 cases, 27.42%), and C4 stubborn low follower (37 cases, 11.94%). Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that, with C1 group as the reference, age (C3, OR = 0.74 ), parental education level (C4, OR =0.67), executive function (C2, OR =0.69; C4, OR =0.44), family support (C3, OR =0.75) and myopia control attitude (C2, OR =0.39) were all influencing factors for the compliance trajectory of OK lens; with C2 group as the reference, age (C3, OR = 0.55 ), parental education level (C3, OR =0.34; C4, OR =0.64), executive function (C3, OR =0.77), and family support (C4, OR =0.58) were all influencing factors for the compliance trajectory of OK lens; with C3 group as the reference, age (C4, OR = 0.68 ), and myopia control attitude (C4, OR =0.44) were both influencing factors for the compliance trajectory of OK lens ( P <0.05). Conclusions The compliance of wearing OK lens in children and adolescents with myopia can be roughly divided into four trajectories, and there is group heterogeneity. Dynamic and precise compliance intervention strategies should be given based on different trajectories and influencing factors.

OBJECTIVE: To propose a machine learning-based method for predicting the trajectories during manual acupuncture manipulation (MAM), aiming to improve the precision and consistency of acupuncture practitioner' operation and provide the real-time suggestions on MAM error correction. METHODS: Computer vision technology was used to analyze the hand micromotion when holding needle during acupuncture, and provide a three-dimensional coordinate description method of the index finger joints of the holding hand. Focusing on the 4 typical motions of MAM, a machine learning-based MAM trajectory predictive model was designed. By integrating the changes of phalangeal joint angle and hand skeletal information of acupuncture practitioner, the motion trajectory of the index finger joint was predicted accurately. Besides, the roles of machine learning-based MAM trajectory predictive model in the skill transmission of acupuncture manipulation were verified by stratified randomized controlled trial. RESULTS: The performance of MAM trajectory predictive model, based on the long short-term memory network (LSTM), obtained the highest stability and precision, up to 98%. The learning effect was improved when the model applied to the skill transmission of acupuncture manipulation. CONCLUSION The machine learning-based MAM predictive model provides acupuncture practitioner with precise action prediction and feedback. It is valuable and significant for the inheritance and error correction of manual operation of acupuncture.

Hearing loss is the most prevalent disabling disease. Cochlear implantation（CI） serves as the primary intervention for severe to profound hearing loss. This consensus systematically explores the value of genetic diagnosis in the pre-operative assessment and efficacy prognosis for CI. Drawing upon domestic and international research and clinical experience, it proposes an evidence-based medicine three-tiered prognostic classification system（Favorable, Marginal, Poor）. The consensus focuses on common hereditary non-syndromic hearing loss（such as that caused by mutations in genes like GJB2, SLC26A4, OTOF, LOXHD1） and syndromic hereditary hearing loss（such as Jervell & Lange-Nielsen syndrome and Waardenburg syndrome）, which are closely associated with congenital hearing loss, analyzing the impact of their pathological mechanisms on CI outcomes. The consensus provides recommendations based on multiple round of expert discussion and voting. It emphasizes that genetic diagnosis can optimize patient selection, predict prognosis, guide post-operative rehabilitation, offer stratified management strategies for patients with different genotypes, and advance the application of precision medicine in the field of CI.

Objective The aim of this study was to investigate the prospective association between physical activity (PA),independently or in conjunction with other contributing factors,and osteoporosis (OP) outcomes. Methods The Physical Activity in Osteoporosis Outcomes (PAOPO) study was a community-based cohort investigation. A structured questionnaire was used to gather the participants' sociodemographic characteristics. Bone mineral density (BMD) measurements were performed to assess OP outcomes,and the relationship between BMD and OP was evaluated within this cohort. Results From 2013 to 2014,8,471 participants aged 18 years and older were recruited from Tangshan,China's Jidong community. Based on their PA level,participants were categorized as inactive,moderately active,or very active. Men showed higher physical exercise levels than women across the activity groups. BMD was significantly higher in the very active group than in the moderately active and inactive groups. Individuals aged>50 years are at a higher risk of developing OP and osteopenia. Conclusion The PAOPO study offers promising insights into the relationship between PA and OP outcomes,encouraging the implementation of PA in preventing and managing OP.

Repeated freezing and thawing for 5, 10, 15, 20 times had no effect on the detection effect, and it could be stored at −20℃ for 1 year, among 10 commercially available gastrodia elata samples tested, 7 were authentic and 3 were counterfeit. CONCLUSION The DNA authenticity test kit is highly specific, sensitive, reproducible and stable, and the test results are accurate, it is suitable for the rapid identification of asparagus and its common forgeries.

Background and objective Lung cancer is a common malignant tumor of respiratory system.Endo-bronchial ultrasound-guided transbronchial needle aspiration(EBUS-TBNA)is a valuable tool for the diagnosis and staging of lung cancer.EBUS-TBNA is predominantly performed under local anesthesia or conscious sedation.However,the diagnostic performance of EBUS-TBNA under general anesthesia and in conjunction with rapid on-site evaluation(ROSE)remains un-certain.This study aims to investigate the value of general anesthesia and ROSE in the diagnosis of lung cancer with EBUS-TB-NA.Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on 164 patients treated in the Department of Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine of The Affiliated Hospital of Southwest Medical University from January 2018 to December 2022.All patients were preoperatively suspected of lung cancer and underwent EBUS-TBNA.Based on whether they received general anesthesia and ROSE,the patients were divided into three groups:local anesthesia group(LA group)(n=54),general anesthesia group(GA group)(n=67)and general anesthesia with ROSE group(GA-ROSE group)(n=43).The puncture characteristics and diagnostic differences were analyzed among the groups.Results The number of lymph node puncture needles in the LA group was higher than in GA-ROSE group(P<0.01).The overall diagnostic rates of EBUS-TBNA for the three groups were 87.04%,89.55%and 90.70%,respectively,with malignant tumor diagnostic rates of 88.24%,88.89%and 94.74%.No statistically significant differ-ences were observed among the three groups(P>0.05).There were no instances of severe complications or adverse anesthesia reactions in any of the groups.Conclusion Compared to the combination of local anesthesia with intravenous analgesia and sedation,the implementation of EBUS-TBNA under general anesthesia,with or without ROSE,achieves equally accurate re-sults,and general anesthesia combined with ROSE can reduce in the number of lymph node puncture needles.

Objective:To explore the effects of Undaria pinnatifida polysaccharides(UPPs)on depressive-like behavior,neurotransmitter content,oxidative stress,and the hypothalamus-pituitary-adrenal(HPA)axis in rats treated with chronic unpredictable mild stress(CUMS).Methods:A rat model of depression was prepared using the CUMS method,and rats were treated with normal saline(NS)or different doses of UPPs by gavage.The general condition of the rats was observed,and depressive-like behavior was detected by the open field test(OFT),sucrose preference test(SPT),and forced swimming test(FST).The activity or levels of 5-hydroxytryptamine(5-HT),dopamine(DA)and norepinephrine(NE),malondialdehyde(MDA),superoxide disidase(SOD)and catalase(CAT),adrenocorticotrop-ic hormore(ACTH),corticosterone(CORT)in the hippocampus or serum of rats were detected using commercial kits.Western Blot was used to detect the expression level of hippocampal glucocorticoid receptor(GR)protein,and hema-toxylin-eosin(HE)staining was used to observe the tissue structure of hippocampus of rats.Results:The depressive-like behavior of rats in the UPPs medium and high dose groups was significantly improved(P＜0.05).In the UPPs high dose group,the contents of 5-HT,DA,and NE in the hippocampus of rats increased(P＜0.05),while the con-tents of MDA in both serum and hippocampus decreased(P＜0.05),and the activities of SOD and CAT increased(P＜0.05).The contents of ACTH and CORT in serum decreased(P＜0.05).In the UPPs medium dose group,the levels of hippocampal MDA and CAT,as well as serum SOD,ACTH,and CORT were improved(P＜0.05).The expression level of GR protein in the hippocampus increased(P＜0.05),and the pathological changes in the hipp-ocampal dentate gyrus were significantly improved.Conclusion:UPPs can alleviate depressive-like behavior in CUMS rats,and its mechanism may be related to increasing the content of monoamine neurotransmitters in the hippocampus,reducing oxidative stress damage,and HPA axis hyperfunction.

Objective To explore the correlation between changes in cerebral blood flow and auditory cognitive function in patients with amnestic mild cognitive impairment(aMCI).Methods The aMCI patients who visited the Memory Clinic of Beijing Friendship Hospital from July 2022 to September 2023 were selected as the research subjects,and gender and age matched healthy controls were included in the comparative study.All subjects underwent ASL scans using 3.0 T MRI and underwent a Chinese"repeat-recall"verbal cognitive function test(RRT)as an assessment of auditory cognitive abilities,and the correlation between cerebral blood flow(CBF)changes and auditory cognitive function was finally analyzed.Results A total of 26 patients with aMCI and 32 normal healthy were included.Regardless of the high and low context and signal to noise ratio(SNR),the auditory cognitive ability of the aMCI group significantly decreased compared to the control group(P<0.01).The standardized CBF value of the left inferior parietal lobule in the aMCI group was significantly reduced compared to the control group(0.921±0.234 vs 1.247±0.076,P<0.001).Correlation analysis showed that the standardized CBF value of the left inferior parietal lobule in the aMCI group was correlated with auditory cognitive ability under low contextual conditions of-5 dB signal-to-noise ratio(r=0.857,P<0.001).Conclusion CBF in the left inferior parietal lobe in patients with aMCI may have some relevance for auditory cognitive impairment.

Objective:To construct an analytic method aimed at the characteristics of the commonly method of supplementing and pouring of acupuncture based on the analysis and modeling of ultrasound images around acupoint region in the process of acupuncture.Methods:A total of 7 healthy subjects who underwent physical examination in Beijing Zhongguancun Hospital from June,2022 to June,2023 were selected,and their Kongzui acupoints were acupunctured by 10 acupuncturists with associate senior title as 4 kinds of acupuncture manipulations included reinforcing by twisting and rotating(RFTR),reducing by twisting and rotating(RDTR),reinforcing by lifting and thrusting(RFLT),and reducing by lifting and thrusting(RDLT).The B-ultrasound diagnostic device was used to collect the images of muscle and fascial tissue below the acupoint,so as to construct the model of images.The definition of virtual acupuncture point was adopted to study the regulation of perturbation of subcutaneous tissue that was caused after the skin was acupunctured by needle.The change regulation of the virtual acupuncture point of muscle bundle below skin at Zuikong acupoint of subjects was analyzed.Results:The difference value of average absolution value between peak and trough of the trajectory of virtual acupuncture point of twisting and rotating was 0.066±0.045,and the average value of amplitude of this method was less than that(0.428±0.276)of lifting and thrusting method,and the twisting and rotating method was uniform and symmetrical,and there was difference between two kinds of acupuncture methods.The characteristics of computer graphics was used to qualify the work effect of lifting and thrusting,and reinforcing and reducing,which showed the heavy insertion and light lifting of RFLT,and showed heavy lifting and light insertion of RDLT,thus distinguished the two methods[(RFLT)and(RDLT)].Conclusions:The ultrasound imaging and computer graphics can be used to analyze the regularity of the common"reinforcing and reducing"method of acupuncture and moxibustion.

Primary hepatic carcinoma, hepatic carcinoma for short, is a common gastrointestinal tumor with an insidious onset and rapid progression, and its incidence rate is increasing year by year, seriously threatening the life and health of our people. At present, there is still a lack of specific markers for early diagnosis and treatment of hepatic carcinoma, so the research on its biological characteristics and pathogenesis has become very urgent. Metabolic reprogramming is one of the main characteristics of tumor cells, and lipid metabolic reprogramming is involved in the occurrence and development of hepatic carcinoma. Therefore, the key metabolic enzymes and regulatory molecules in the process of lipid metabolism are considered as important targets for the diagnosis and treatment of hepatic carcinoma. This paper mainly focuses on the signaling pathways and regulatory molecules related to hepatocellular carcinoma lipid metabolism, as well as the related anti-hepatoma drugs, so as to provide new ideas for the prevention and treatment of hepatic carcinoma.
