Spinal muscular atrophy （SMA） is characterized by muscle atrophy and weakness caused by degeneration of the anterior horn cells of the spinal cord， and spinal muscular atrophy with lower extremity predominance （SMALED） accounts for less than 2% of all SMA cases.Due to the rarity of the disease and varying severities of its clinical phenotype， misdiagnosis or missed diagnosis is often observed in clinical practice. In this case， a male patient aged 19 years was admitted due to “weakness in both lower limbs for more than 2 years and aggravation for more than 2 months”. Neurophysical examination showed low muscle strength and muscle atrophy of lower limbs， with negative pathological signs or sensory disorders. Electromyography examination revealed neurogenic damage in both lower limbs， and the clinical and electrophysiological features of the patient were consistent with the features of SMALED. Genetic testing revealed BICD2 gene mutation， and the patient was diagnosed with SMALED2. There was no aggravation of clinical symptoms at follow-up half a year later. This case report aims to improve the understanding and diagnosis of this disease among clinicians.

Objective To study the five-year survival status and influencing factors of elderly patients with lung cancer complicated with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Methods A cohort study was conducted to follow up 450 patients with lung cancer and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease who were hospitalized in our hospital from January 2018 to December 2023. The endpoint of the follow-up was the end of a five-year period or death. The Life Tables method was used to calculate survival rates and plot survival curves. The Cox proportional hazards model was used to analyze the influencing factors of five-year survival. Results The results indicated that the overall five-year survival rate of patients was 4.89%, and it decreased year by year. Cox regression analysis showed that age, gender, family functioning, and psychological status significantly influenced patient survival rate (all P<0.05). Stratified analysis found that the smoking status, family functioning, and psychological status of male patients all had an impact on survival rate (all P<0.05), while the psychological status of female patients had a more significant impact on survival (P=0.008). Conclusion This study provides a scientific basis for comprehensive intervention of elderly lung cancer patients with COPD. It is recommended that clinical attention should be paid to psychological and family factors to improve patient prognosis.

Objective: To investigate the status and influencing factors of platelet bacterial contamination in China, and to provide theoretical support for relevant policies in blood collection and transfusion institutions. Methods: A meta-analysis by systematically searching studies on platelet bacterial contamination in China published between 1998 and 2023 was conducted. Data analysis was performed using R4.4 software to combine studies that met the inclusion criteria. Results: Twenty-three studies were included after screening. The combined analysis showed that the overall contamination rate of platelets in China was 0.18% (95% CI: 0.12%-0.24%). The contamination rate of manually condensed platelets was significantly higher than that of apheresis platelet concentrates (0.28% vs 0.17%, P<0.01). No significant difference in platelet contamination rates was found between eastern and central regions (0.21% vs 0.15%, P>0.01). The contamination rate of aerobic bacteria was higher than that of anaerobic bacteria (0.11% vs 0.06%, P<0.01). Publication bias analysis indicated robust results, and sensitivity analysis showed minimal impact of excluding individual studies on the overall conclusion. Conclusion: Although the platelet contamination rate in China is generally low, significant differences exist across collection methods and regions.

BACKGROUND: Severe stroke has high rates of mortality and morbidity. This study aimed to investigate the clinical course, causes of worsening, and outcomes of severe ischemic stroke. METHODS: This prospective, multicenter cohort study enrolled adult patients admitted ≤30 days after ischemic stroke from nine hospitals in China between September 2017 and December 2019. Severe stroke was defined as a score of ≥15 on the National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS). Clinical worsening was defined as an increase of 4 in the NIHSS score from baseline. Unfavorable functional outcome was defined as a modified Rankin scale score ≥3 at 3 months and 1 year after stroke onset, respectively. We performed Logistic regression to explore baseline features and reperfusion therapies associated with clinical worsening and functional outcomes. RESULTS: Among 4201 patients enrolled, 854 patients (20.33%) had severe stroke on admission. Of 3347 patients without severe stroke on admission, 142 (4.24%) patients developed severe stroke in hospital. Of 854 patients with severe stroke on admission, 33.95% (290/854) experienced clinical worsening (median time from stroke onset: 43 h, Q1-Q3: 20-88 h), with brain edema (54.83% [159/290]) as the leading cause; 24.59% (210/854) of these patients died by 30 days, and 81.47% (677/831) and 78.44% (633/807) had unfavorable functional outcomes at 3 months and 1 year respectively. Reperfusion reduced the risk of worsening (adjusted odds ratio [OR]: 0.24, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.12-0.49, P  <0.01), 30-day death (adjusted OR: 0.22, 95% CI: 0.11-0.41, P  <0.01), and unfavorable functional outcomes at 3 months (adjusted OR: 0.24, 95% CI: 0.08-0.68, P <0.01) and 1 year (adjusted OR: 0.17, 95% CI: 0.06-0.50, P  <0.01). CONCLUSIONS: Approximately one-fifth of patients with ischemic stroke had severe neurological deficits on admission. Clinical worsening mainly occurred in the first 3 to 4 days after stroke onset, with brain edema as the leading cause of worsening. Reperfusion reduced the risk of clinical worsening and improved functional outcomes. REGISTRATION ClinicalTrials.gov , NCT03222024.

Alzheimer's disease(AD)is a neurodegenerative disease with highly heterogeneous pathological and clinical manifesta-tions,and it is the most common cause of dementia.This heterogeneity poses challenges for diagnosis,treatment,and evaluating novel pharmacological efficacy.This review summarizes the latest progress in the major clinical subtypes of AD based on clinical manifesta-tions,genetic,and pathological features.Early-onset and late-onset AD clinical subtypes may share the same symptoms but differ in etiology,age of onset,mode of presentation,disease progression,and associated comorbidities.Typical and atypical AD differ signifi-cantly in clinical manifestations,pathological features,and diagnostic criteria.Research on AD subtypes based on imaging and omics data has also made considerable progress.This review also outlines the molecular pathological heterogeneity of AD.A deep understand-ing of these heterogeneities is crucial for diagnosis,the formulation of pharmacological treatment strategies,and clinical management.

Objective:To explore the clinical efficacy of the splenic vessel-oriented anatomical plane priority strategy in Da Vinci robotic Kimura distal pancreatectomy.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on 26 patients who underwent robotic-assisted distal pancreatectomy at Zhejiang Provincial People’s Hospital from January 2019 to September 2024. The cohort included 7 male and 19 female patients, aged (49.3±16.7) years. Surgical outcomes, including operative time, intraoperative blood loss, postoperative complications, and hospital stay, were analyzed, and surgical techniques were summarized.Results:All 26 patients successfully completed the surgery. Pathological diagnoses included 5 cases of intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm, 5 serous cystadenomas, 1 pancreatic neuroendocrine tumor, 6 solid pseudopapillary neoplasms, 4 mucinous cystic neoplasms, and 5 neuroendocrine tumors. The maximum tumor diameter was (2.3±1.1) cm, and the operative time was (183.2±77.4) min. The spleen preservation rate was 100% (26/26). Intraoperative blood loss was 50.0 (17.5, 125) ml, and postoperative hospital stay was (10.1±3.7) d. No Clavien-Dindo grade III or higher complications occurred. The post-operative pancreatic fistula (POPF) rate was 53.8% (14/26), including 38.5% (10/26) biochemical leak and 15.3% (4/26) grade B POPF, with no grade C POPF.Conclusion:The splenic vessel-oriented anatomical plane priority strategy in robotic-assisted spleen-preserving distal pancreatectomy (Kimura technique) is safe and feasible, significantly improving the spleen preservation rate.

Objective: To explore mental health status of vocational college students and its association with physical exercise and exercise motivation, so as to provide data support for the promotion of physical exercise, exercise motivation theory and the protection of mental health among vocational college students. Methods: From June 2 to July 2, 2023, a convenience sampling method was used to select 1 763 college students from three vocational colleges in Sichuan, Chongqing, and Guizhou for the survey. Physical Activity Rating Scale (PARS-3), Motives for Physical Activities Measure-Revised (MPAM-R), Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9) and Flourishing Scale (FS) were used to assess physical exercise, exercise motivation, depressive symptoms and flourishing levels of vocational college students. Multiple linear regression analysis was conducted to examine the relationship between physical exercise, exercise motivation, depression as the negative indicator of mental health and flourishing as the positive indicator of mental health. Results: There were negative correlations between physical exercise, exercise motivation and their five factors with depression scores among vocational college students ( r=-0.162--0.133, P <0.01). Physical exercise, health motivation and pleasure motivation were positively correlated with flourishing and its eight factors among vocational college students ( r= 0.054 -0.099, P <0.05). Depression scores and flourishing scores varied significantly across students with different levels of physical exercise and exercise motivation ( F=11.18-15.69, 2.80-16.05, P <0.05). Multiple linear regression analysis indicated that physical exercise, health motivation, and total exercise motivation scores were negatively correlated with depressive symptoms ( β = -0.02 , -0.11, -0.35), and physical exercise, health motivation, pleasure motivation, and total exercise motivation scores were positively correlated with flourishing ( β =0.31, 0.32, 0.50, 0.30) ( P <0.05). Conclusions Physical exercise and exercise motivation are significantly associated with mental health of vocational college students. Enhancing physical exercise and increasing exercise motivation in aspects of health and pleasure can promote mental health of vocational college students.

Abstract OBJECTIVE To conduct visual analysis of the annual differentiated performance data of clinical pharmacists by using R language to find out the shortcomings and promote the progress of clinical pharmacists and department development. METHODS The weight scores of clinical pharmacists’ performance assessment in 2021 were collected, and R language was used to draw rectangular tree diagram, violin case diagram and Sankey diagram for data visualization analysis. RESULTS The basic work of clinical pharmacy department accounted for the largest weight, followed by clinical affairs, pharmaceutical quality control affairs and pioneering affairs in the middle of the weight, while teaching, scientific research weight was insufficient. There were also great differences in the weight of clinical pharmacists. Among the 8 clinical pharmacists, 3 focused on basic, 3 on all-round development, 1 on clinical, and the work weight of 1 needed to be comprehensively improved. CONCLUSION R language visualization can be used to analyze the weight composition of clinical pharmacy department, which is convenient to formulate the direction of department rectification and promote the improvement of clinical pharmacists team level.

BackgroundThe mental health level of the prison police is relatively low， so finding innovative ways to improve the mental health of them is of great significance for the safety of prison supervision and the implementation of peaceful China initiative. ObjectiveTo explore the relationship between perceived social support， perceived stress and psychological resilience with mental health of prison police， and to provide references for improving their mental health. MethodsIn March 2022， 424 policemen working in a male prison in a western province were selected by cluster sampling method， and investigated with the Perceived Social Support Scale （PSSS）， Chinese Perceived Stress Scale （CPSS）， Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale （CD-RISC） and General Health Questionnaire 20 （GHQ-20）， then Process 4.2 was used employed to verify the mediating role of perceived stress as well as the moderating role of psychological resilience in the relationship between perceived social support and mental health. Results①Male subjects scored higher on GHQ-20 than female subjects （t=2.095， P<0.05）. ②CPSS score was negatively correlated with PSSS and GHQ-20 scores （r=-0.670， -0.703， P<0.01）， and GHQ-20 score showed a positive correlation with PSSS and CD-RISC scores （r=0.580， 0.693， P<0.01）. ③Perceived social support positively predict mental health （β=0.154， 95% CI： 0.133~0.175， P<0.01）. ④Perceived stress played a mediating role in the relationship between perceived social support and mental health， and the mediation effect size was 0.087， accounting for 88.78% of the total effect （95% CI： 0.064~0.112， P<0.01）. ⑤Psychological resilience played a moderating role in the second half （perceived stress→mental health） of the mediating path of "perceived social support→perceived stress→mental health"（β=0.074， 95% CI： 0.046~0.102， P<0.01）. ⑥Psychological resilience also regulated the mediation effect of perceived stress on the relationship between perceived social support and mental health ［three regression coefficients tested in turn are significant： a=-0.537 （95% CI： -0.594~-0.480， P<0.01）， b1=-0.162 （95% CI： -0.197~-0.127， P<0.01）， b3=0.074 （95% CI： 0.046~0.102， P<0.01）］. ConclusionPerceived social support of prison police has an impact on their mental health both directly and indirectly through perceived stress. In addition， perceived social support of prison police has a moderated mediation effect on mental health， and it is partially moderated by psychological resilience.［ Funded by General Project of Sichuan Prison Administrative Bureau in 2022］
