BackgroundPostpartum depression (PPD) is a prevalent postpartum complications that significantly compromises women's psychological and physical well-being. Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS), a conventional neuromodulation technique, has been increasingly used in the treatment of PPD. However, high-quality evidence regarding its efficacy and safety remains limited. ObjectiveTo evaluate the efficacy and safety of rTMS in the treatment of PPD, thereby providing references for clinical treatment. MethodsDatabases including Cochrane Library, PubMed, Embase, CNKI, Wanfang, VIP and China Biology Medicine disc (CBM) were electronically searched for randomized controlled trials (RCTs) on rTMS for PPD, with the search spanning from database inception to February 8, 2025. Study quality was assessed using the Cochrane Handbook for Systematic Reviews of Interventions 5.0.1, and the certainty of evidence was graded according to the Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development and Evaluation (GRADE) approach. Meta-analysis was conducted using RevMan 5.3 and Stata 12.0. The outcomes of the Meta-analysis included the total effective rate, Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale (EPDS) score, Hamilton Depression Rating Scale (HAMD) score, and adverse reactions (dizziness, headache, nausea, diarrhea, and the overall incidence of adverse reactions). ResultsA total of 11 studies involving 729 patients with PPD were included. Meta-analysis results showed that the total effective rate in the study group was significantly higher than that in the control group (OR=5.54, 95% CI: 3.07–10.01, P<0.01). Both EPDS score (SMD=-2.38, 95% CI: -3.39–-1.37, P<0.01) and HAMD score (SMD=2.53, 95% CI: 1.21–3.85, P<0.01) in the study group were significantly lower than those in the control group, with statistically significant differences. Comparisons between the study group and control group reveal no significant differences in the incidence of dizziness and headache (RR=1.47, 95% CI: 0.63–3.43, P>0.05), nausea (RR=1.46, 95% CI: 0.55–3.86, P>0.05), diarrhea (RR=0.71, 95% CI: 0.23–2.20, P>0.05), and overall adverse reactions (RR=1.30, 95% CI: 0.79–2.15, P>0.05). GRADE assessment rated the four indicators of dizziness and headache, diarrhea, overall incidence of adverse reactions, and EPDS score as "moderate-certainty evidence", and rated the total effective rate, nausea, and the HAMD score as "low-certainty evidence". ConclusionrTMS demonstrates certain therapeutic efficacy for PPD, with a safety profile comparable to conventional treatment.

Objective:
To construct a hypertension risk prediction model for residents aged 18-79 years, so as to provide an assessment tool for early screening and prevention of hypertension in high-risk groups.
Methods:
The permanent residents aged 18-79 years from 6 townships (streets) in Fangshan District of Beijing Municipality were selected as the study subjects using a multi-stage stratified random sampling method from March to June 2023. Demographic information, lifestyle, body mass index (BMI), blood pressure, fasting blood glucose, and blood lipid were collected through questionnaire survey, physical examination, and laboratory tests. Subjects were randomly divided into training and validation sets at a 7∶3 ratio. The logistic regression model was used to screen the risk factors of hypertension, and a hypertension risk prediction nomogram was constructed. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve, calibration curve, and decision curve analysis were used to verify the discrimination, fit, and clinical application value of the model.
Results:
A total of 4 438 subjects were included, including 2 365 males (53.29%) and 2 073 females (46.71%), with a mean age of (44.99±14.90) years. The prevalence of hypertension was 35.29% (1 566 cases), and the standardized prevalence was 24.74%. The logistic regression model screened out 9 influencing factors of hypertension. The nomogram was established as ln[p/ (1-p)]= -2.873 + 0.935×40-<50 years + 1.463×50-<60 years + 1.908×60-<70 years + 2.346×70-79 years + 0.298×male-0.675×college degree or above + 0.384×smoking + 0.227×drinking + 0.572×overweight + 1.449×obesity + 0.557×heart rate ≥80 beats/min + 0.428×diabetes + 0.484×dyslipidemia. The area under the ROC curve of the validation set was 0.821 (95%CI: 0.798-0.843), and the calibration curve results showed that the calibration curve fitted the actual curve well. Decision curve analysis showed that the threshold probability was in the range of 0.10 to 0.70, and the model had good predictive value and clinical application value.
Conclusion
The nomogram based on age, gender, educational level, smoking, drinking, body mass index, heart rate, diabetes, and dyslipidemia can be used to predict the risk of hypertension among residents aged 18-79 years.

Objective:To observe the attention processing characteristics of the pilots experiencing black hole illusion, and to provide quantitative data references for flight simulation training guided by eye movement fixation based on the eye movement mode of the pilots with high flight performance score.Methods:The pilots who underwent the transformation training were selected by cluster sampling. Their original flight performance scores were converted into percentile grades. The top 10 and bottom 10 pilots were assigned as high and low score groups. Their eye movement data were recorded when they were completing the night approach and landing task on the flight illusion simulator. The correlation between eye movement data and flight performance in the simulation task were analyzed, and the eye movement patterns of pilots with different flight performance were compared.Results:Thirty-six valid subjects were selected. A total of 12 eye movement indexes were correlated with flight performance ( r=0.334-0.398, all P<0.05). Three eye movement indexes, including peak velocity of exit saccade from attitude indicator of head-up display (HUD), the percentage of total duration of fixations on airspeed indicator of HUD to the total task duration and average duration of whole fixations on attitude indicator could establish a linear regression model with flight performance ( R2=0.422, F=7.77, P<0.001). The percentage of total duration of whole fixations on airspeed indicator of HUD to the total task duration in high score group [(4.38±3.48)%] was higher than that in low score group [(1.72±1.32)%], and the difference was statistically significant ( t=2.25, P=0.045). And the average peak velocity of exit saccade from attitude indicator of HUD in high score group [(358.85±171.40)°/s] was higher than that in low score group [(221.14±92.60)°/s], and the difference was statistically significant ( t=2.24, P=0.038). Conclusions:Eye movement index in the night approach and landing task can be used as an evaluation index of attention ability of pilots in black hole illusion simulation and experience task.

Objective:A two-sample Mendelian randomized study was used to investigate the relationship between psychiatric disorders and the risk of developing obstructive sleep apnea(OSA).Methods:Genetic variations in bipolar disorder, depression, Alzheimer's disease and schizophrenia were used as instrumental variables and data from genome-wide association studies of OSA patients from the Finngen Consortium were used.In this study, inverse variance weighted method was used as the main analysis method, and three sensitivity analyses including weighted median analysis, MR-Egger regression analysis and MR-PRESSO analysis were jointly applied.Results:Higher genetic predisposition for depression and bipolar disorder increased the risk of developing OSA, the odds ratio is 1.18(95% CI: 1.02-1.37, P=0.026)and 1.06(95% CI: 1.01-1.12, P=0.038)for each unit increase with log-transformed odds ratios of depression and bipolar disorder, respectively.Genetic susceptibility to Alzheimer's disease and schizophrenia was not associated with the risk of developing OSA. Conclusions:This study suggests that a higher genetic predisposition for depression and bipolar disorder may lead to a higher risk of developing OSA.OSA and psychiatric disorders such as depression and bipolar disorder have a high incidence in the elderly, however, their causal effects still need to be studied.
10.Research progress of pars plana vitrectomy with internal limiting membrane peeling for refractory macular edema
Chinese Journal of Ocular Fundus Diseases 2021;37(4):315-318
The main treatment methods of macular edema (ME) are intravitreal injection of anti-vacular endothelial growth factor drugs, corticosteroids, retinal laser photocoagulation and pars plana vitrectomy (PPV). However, recurrent ME, epiretinal membrane formation and drug resistance have occurred to a part of patients, which is called refractory ME (RME). PPV with internal limiting membrane peeling (ILMP) has the potential of treating and relieving RME. PPV combined with ILMP can treat and relieve RME by removing the posterior vitreous cortex, or removing the epiretinal membrane or internal limiting membrane at the same time during surgery to relieve the traction between the vitreous body and the retina. However, due to the complex pathogenesis of ME, the therapeutic effects of PPV combined with ILMP on ME caused by different etiologies still need clinical studies to explore the best surgical methods for ME caused by different etiologies.
