Objective:To investigate the significance of clinical factors combined with transvaginal ultrasound and contrast-enhanced ultrasound(CEUS) in guiding the choice of treatment plan for cesarean scar pregnancy(CSP).Methods:The clinical and transvaginal ultrasound and CEUS data of 120 patients with CSP from January 2016 to June 2021 in the First People′s Hospital of Foshan were retrospectively analyzed, and they were divided into ultrasound-guided curettage/ hysteroscopic group (Group A, 91 cases) and laparoscopic group (Group B, 29 cases) according to treatment option, and the differences in clinical and ultrasound factors between the two groups were compared, and to determine the relevant clinical and ultrasound indicators for the choice of treatment option.Results:There were statistical differences between the 2 groups in comparison of whether the gestational sac/mass protruded toward the plasma membrane, gestational sac/mass diameter, the main blood supply site of the gestational sac/mass, the site of the chorion/early placenta and scar thickness (all P<0.05). Logistic regression analysis indicated that CEUS showing major blood supply site of the gestational sac/mass ( OR=6.029, P=0.003) and uterine scar thickness ( OR=12.998, P=0.002) were independent risk factors for minimally invasive surgery for CSP. Conclusions:Ultrasound combined with clinical factors have a certain value in the selection of treatment options for CPS, and the thickness of the uterine scar and the main blood supply site of the gestational sac/mass showed in CEUS may be key factors affecting the minimally invasive surgical treatment of CSP.

Central medial thalamic nucleus (CM) is a nucleus located in the medullary plate of the midline thalamus. It belongs to the midline nucleus group of the thalamus and serves as a non-specific projection system. CM has extensive anatomical connections with other brain areas and acts as a relay and integration center for brain functions. Recent research has demonstrated that CM is involved in various behaviors such as general anesthesia and arousal, pain, itch, emotions, and cognition. This paper reviews the anatomical structure, morphology, fiber connection, electrophysiological characteristics, and other related functions of CM to provide references for future research.

Objective:
To investigate the feasibility and accuracy of transperineal real-time three-dimensional ultrasound combined with clinical factors in predicting the risk of female stress urinary incontinence(SUI).
Methods:
Three hundred and forty-eight female patients with SUI diagnosed were selected as the case group, and 102 healthy people in the same period were selected as the control group. All subjects underwent transperineal real-time three-dimensional ultrasound. The ultrasonic parameters of resting state, contraction and Valsalva were measured, and the clinical parameters such as age, height, weight, history of pregnancy and childbirth were collected. According to the time sequence, all the subjcets were divided into derivation cohort and verification cohort inproportion to 2∶1, single factor screening and logistic multiple regression analysis were carried out on 24 factors, and the risk model was established. The cut-off value of the disease probability P was determined by the ROC curve of the subjects, and then the accuracy of the cut-off value in predicting SUI was verified in the verification group.
Results:
Single factor analysis showed that 13 parameters were associated with SUI(all

The optimal protocol for neuromodulation by transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) remains unclear. Using the rotarod paradigm, we found that mouse motor learning was enhanced by anodal tDCS (3.2 mA/cm2) during but not before or after the performance of a task. Dual-task experiments showed that motor learning enhancement was specific to the task accompanied by anodal tDCS. Studies using a mouse model of stroke induced by middle cerebral artery occlusion showed that concurrent anodal tDCS restored motor learning capability in a task-specific manner. Transcranial in vivo Ca2+ imaging further showed that anodal tDCS elevated and cathodal tDCS suppressed neuronal activity in the primary motor cortex (M1). Anodal tDCS specifically promoted the activity of task-related M1 neurons during task performance, suggesting that elevated Hebbian synaptic potentiation in task-activated circuits accounts for the motor learning enhancement. Thus, application of tDCS concurrent with the targeted behavioral dysfunction could be an effective approach to treating brain disorders.
