Finite element method (FEM) is a method to decompose a large complex problem into several small problems to solve it. With this method, multiple small elements can be used to simulate the real physical system, which greatly promotes the development of biomechanics. Biomechanics has always been a hot research direction in spine surgery, and the finite element method is also widely used in spine biomechanics. It can simulate the healthy spine on the computer and study the stress of normal spine in various states, so as to provide help for the study of basic stress of spine.It can simulate the spinal column of pathological changes and degenerative changes, and study its stress in various scenarios, so as to provide direction for the treatment of diseases. Different surgical methods can be simulated to study the stress of the spine and internal fixation after different surgical methods, so as to select the best surgical method for patients; At the same time, it can also simulate different implants and study the stress of different implants in vivo and in vitro, so as to provide guidance for the selection of intraoperative implants and the upgrading and optimization of implants.This paper mainly discusses the application and progress of finite element method in spine surgery, and provides more references for the future study of spine biomechanics and clinical treatment of spine surgery.

Objective: To investigate the mediating effects of resilience and emotion regulation on family cumulative risk and positive coping style among primary and middle school students, so as to provide insights into promoting psychological health among them. Methods: The primary and middle school students from three counties (districts) of Baise City, Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region were selected through the stratified cluster random sampling method. Resilience, emotion regulation, family cumulative risk and positive coping style were investigated using the Resilience Scale for Chinese adolescent, Emotion Regulation Questionnaire, Chinese family Assessment Instrument, and Simple Coping Strategies Questionnaire, respectively. Mediating effects of resilience and emotion regulation on family cumulative risk and positive coping style were examined using Process macro program. Results: Totally 1 076 questionnaires were allocated, and 1 006 valid questionnaires were recovered, with an effective rate of 93.49%. There were 515 boys, accounting for 51.19%. The median age was 13 (interquartile range, 1) years. The mean scores of resilience, emotion regulation and positive coping style were (3.36±0.63), (2.26±0.56) and (1.85±0.39) points, respectively. The median family cumulative risk index was 0 (interquartile range, 0). The results of mediating effects showed that family cumulative risk had a direct negative effect on positive coping style (β=-0.037, 95%CI: -0.059 to -0.014, P=0.011), and also had an indirect negative effect on positive coping style through psychological resilience (β=-0.029, 95%CI: -0.041 to -0.017, P=0.006) as a mediator or through psychological resilience and emotion regulation (β=-0.002, 95%CI: -0.004 to -0.001, P=0.001) as a chain mediator. The mediating effect of resilience contributed 44% to the total effect, while the chain mediating effect of resilience and emotion regulation contributed 3%. Conclusion Resilience and emotional regulation serve as negative mediators between family cumulative risk and positive coping style among middle and primary school students.

AIM To study the effects of No.1 Weiyan Decoction (Codonopsis Radix,Paeoniae Radix alba,Taraxaci Herba,etc.) on hypoxia and hypoxic tolerance in gastric mucosal epithelial cells in rats with precancerous lesion of gastric cancer (PLGC).METHODS Forty rats were randomly divided into normal,model,Vitacoenzyme Tablets and No.1 Weiyan Decoction groups.Except for the normal group,the rats in the other groups were given with N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine and Little Chengqi Decoction to establish a PLGC rat model.Ten weeks after the administration,the gastric mucosal epithelial microvascular ultrastructure was observed,the expressions of Hif1a mRNA,HIF-1 α protein and VEGF protein in gastric mucosal epithelium were detected.RESULTS Compared with the normal group,the number of microvasculatures in gastric mucosal epithelium was decreased;lumen was severely stenosed or expansive;inner wall was not smooth and had adhesion;vascular endothelial cells were swollen;the expression of Hif1α mRNA showed an increasing trend;the expressions of HIF-1α protein and VEGF protein were anomalous in the model group.Compared with the model group,the gastric mucosal vascular lesion of PLGC rats was improved,and the expressions of Hif1a mRNA,HIF-1α protein and VEGF protein were significantly decreased in the No.1 Weiyan Decoction group.CONCLUSION No.1 Weiyan Decoction can improve hypoxia and hypoxia tolerance,and induce angiogenesis in gastric mucosal epithelium in PLGC rats.
