Background: and Purpose Live cell-based assays (LCBA) are increasingly used for serological antibody detection due to their ability to preserve antigen conformation, offering moderately higher sensitivity than fixed cell-based assays. However, the clinical necessity of prioritizing LCBA for the detection of aquaporin-4 immunoglobulin G (AQP4-IgG) in neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD) remains unclear, especially when compared to its established role in diagnosing myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein antibody-associated disease. Methods: We compared the performance of live cell-based assays using immunofluorescence (LCBA-IF) and fixed cell-based assays using immunofluorescence (FCBA-IF) in detecting AQP4-IgG in 90 cases of NMOSD meeting 2015 International Panel for Neuromyelitis Optica Diagnosis criteria, alongside 40 controls. Additionally, we further investigated the relationship between AQP4-IgG titers as measured by LCBA-IF and FCBA-IF and clinical parameters in NMOSD patients. Results: Results showed 96.9% agreement between LCBA-IF and FCBA-IF (Cohen’s κ=0.935), with a strong Spearman correlation (0.977, p<0.001). Both methods demonstrated 100% specificity, with LCBA-IF showing slightly higher sensitivity compared to FCBA-IF. Within LCBAIF-tested groups, statistically significant differences in annualized relapse rates were observed across all pairwise comparisons (low-titer vs. moderate-titer, low-titer vs. high-titer, and moderate-titer vs. high-titer; all p<0.050). However, this association reached statistical significance in some FCBA-IF-tested groups. Conclusions Overall, there is a strong concordance between LCBA-IF and FCBA-IF in detecting AQP4-IgG, where LCBA-IF shows slightly higher sensitivity. Furthermore, there is a potential link between elevated AQP4-IgG titers and an increased risk of relapse, and this correlation may appear more pronounced when using LCBA-IF.

The therapeutic concept of amblyopia has gradually shifted from improving the visual acuity of the amblyopic eye to restoring binocular visual function.Conventional occlusion therapy and routine visual training have issues such as long treatment cycles, insufficient entertainment value and poor patient compliance, which limits the stability of therapeutic effects. Virtual reality(VR)technology, characterized by immersion, interactivity, and adjustable stimulus parameters, has been increasingly applied to visual training for amblyopia.Current evidence suggests that VR-based training can improve visual acuity and binocular visual function in amblyopia patients to a certain extent.Moreover, its gamified interactions and feedback-driven design may also enhance patient motivation and treatment adherence. This review begins with the mechanisms and theoretical basis of VR training for amblyopia, proceeds to summarizeits advantages over conventional methods, current systems, training modes, clinical efficacy, commonly used outcome measures, as well as safety and acceptability, aiming to provide a reference for its standardization, clinical translation, and widespread adoption.

A 21-year-old unmarried female visited Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital,Fudan University with the chief complaint,memory decline for more than 20 days and discovery of a pelvic mass for more than 10 days.Through systematic examination,she was diagnosed with teratoma-associated anti-N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor(NMDAR)encephalitis.The patient underwent bilateral ovarian teratoma enucleation,and postoperative pathology revealed immature teratoma grade Ⅰ in the left ovary and mature teratoma in the right ovary.Perioperative combined immunotherapy significantly improved her neuropsychiatric symptoms.The diagnosis and treatment of ovarian teratoma-associated anti-NMDAR encephalitis require multidisciplinary collaboration,with accurate diagnosis,timely surgical resection within 1 month,and early initiation of immunotherapy being critical factors for improving prognosis.Clinicians should remain vigilant to avoid missed or misdiagnosed cases,as this condition can lead to severe outcomes.

Objective To explore the time-varying characteristics and correlation degree of autonomous rehabili-tation behavior and related symptoms of middle-aged stroke patients,and to provide a basis for clinical transitional nursing and precise rehabilitation.Methods Ecological momentary assessment was used to select 57 middle-aged stroke patients who underwent rehabilitation treatment in the Rehabilitation Medicine Department of a tertiary com-prehensive hospital in Wuhan from March 15 to August 30,2024,using convenience sampling method.Their au-tonomous rehabilitation behavior and related symptoms(fatigue,pain,emotion,sensation)were continuously monitored for 2 weeks.A hierarchical linear model was used to analyze the correlation between behavior and symptoms.Results The autonomous rehabilitation behavior of middle-aged stroke patients showed a fluctuating increasing trend,and the symptom score showed a slow decreasing trend.The hierarchical linear model showed that compared with female patients,male patients have longer duration of autonomous rehabilitation behavior(P＜0.05).The number and duration of autonomous rehabilitation behaviors in patients without fatigue were higher(P＜0.05).The number of autonomous rehabilitation behaviors in patients without pain was higher than that in patients with pain(P＜0.05).The number of autonomous rehabilitation behavior items among patients who perceived more pleasure in rehabilitation was higher than that among patients with greater difficulty in rehabilitation challenges(P＜0.05).Patients with high rehabilitation confidence have higher numbers and duration of autonomous rehabilitation behaviors compared to pa-tients with low rehabilitation confidence(P＜0.05).Conclusion There are significant individual differences and dy-namic changes in the autonomous rehabilitation behavior and related symptoms of middle-aged stroke patients.Nurs-ing staff should accurately implement personalized rehabilitation services during the transition period,enhance pa-tients'autonomy and self-management ability in home-based rehabilitation,in order to improve the overall rehabilita-tion effect.

Objective:To compare the differences in the evaluation of hemolysis performance of cellulose hemostatic materials using different detection methods and test media,and to explore a m ore reasonable testing plan for such products.Methods:Hemolysis tests were conducted on cellulose hemostatic materials using the absorbance measurement hemolysis method and hemoglobin concentration measurement hemolysis method in accordance with YY/T 1651.1-2019 standard.We compared the changes in hemolysis rate,pH value,and osmotic pressure under different experimental media.Results:Under the same experimental method,compared to SC,the hemolysis results using PBS as the extraction medium are smaller,and the changes in pH and osmotic pressure are closer to the normal range of human body changes.Conclusions:The changes in pH and osmotic pressure may be one of the reasons for the high hemolysis rate of cellulose hemostatic materials.Choosing PBS with buffering effect as the leaching medium may be more suitable for evaluating the hemolysis performance of cellulose hemostatic materials.

Objective:To investigate the impacts of nuclear receptor-interacting protein 1(NRIP1)on sepsis-evoked intesti-nal epithelial injury via transcriptional regulation of high mobility group box 1(HMGB1).Methods:The expression levels of NRIP1 and HMGB1 were detected by RT-qPCR and Western blot.The pathological changes of intestinal tissue were detected by HE staining.CCK-8 assay determined the optimal treatment time of LPS.Caco-2 cells were transfected with NRIP1 small interfering RNA(siRNA-NRIP1-1/2),and cell viability and apoptosis were detected by CCK-8 assay and flow cytometry,respectively.RT-qPCR and Western blot examined the expressions of inflammation-associated factors.Transepithelial resistance(TEER)was used to detect intestinal epi-thelial permeability.Western blot was used to detect the expressions of apoptosis and tight-junction related proteins.The binding rela-tionship between NRIP1 and HMGB1 was verified by luciferase reporting assay and chromatin immunoprecipitation assay(ChIP).After knocking down NRIP1 and overexpressing HMGB1 in LPS-treated Caco-2 cells,the functional experiment was performed again.Results:NRIP1 expression was fortified in the intestinal tissues of sepsis rats and LPS-treated Caco-2 cells.Interference with NRIP1 attenuated LPS-elicited Caco-2 cell viability injury,apoptosis,inflammatory response and barrier damage.Additionally,NRIP1 might activate HMGB1 expression at transcriptional level and HMGB1 elevation might reverse the impacts of NRIP1 absence on Caco-2 cell viability,apoptosis,inflammatory response as well as barrier function.Conclusion:NRIP1 may promote sepsis-elicited intestinal epi-thelial injury,which may be related to transcriptional activation of HMGB1.

Objective:To predict mechanical complications (MC) following spinal deformity surgery for adult spine deformity (ASD) using machine learning models, identify key risk factors, and develop a visualizable tool for individualized risk assessment.Methods:Clinical and radiological data from 525 patients with ASD who underwent surgery in our hospital between January 2017 and December 2021 were collected. Patients were randomly assigned to a training set (70%) and a test set (30%) for model development. The cohort included 88 males and 437 females, with a mean age of 42.2±18.1 years. Variables included demographic data, comorbidities, local and systemic radiological parameters, paraspinal muscle fat infiltration (FI), and vertebral bone quality (VBQ) scores. Multiple machine learning algorithms: Random Forest (RF), Gaussian Naive Bayes (GNB), Light GBM, Support Vector Machine (SVM), XGBoost (XGB), and Logistic Regression (LR) were trained and evaluated. Model performance was compared using the receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) and precision-recall curve (PRC). SHAP (Shapley Additive Explanations) was used to rank risk factors, while LIME (Local Interpretable Model-Agnostic Explanations) was applied to visualize MC risk in individual cases.Results:Of the 525 patients, 135 (25.7%) developed postoperative MC. Among these, 80 (59.3%) experienced proximal junction kyphosis or failure (PJK/PJF), 7 (5.2%) had distal junction kyphosis or failure (DJK/DJF), 28 (20.7%) sustained rod fractures, and 29 (21.5%) showed significant loss of correction. In the validation cohort, the RF model achieved the highest area under the curve (AUC=0.80), followed by GNB (0.77), XGB (0.76), LR (0.74), LightGBM (0.73), and SVM (0.66). The RF model also demonstrated the best PRC value (0.58), highest sensitivity (0.65), and lowest Brier score (0.20). GNB, Light GBM, and LR models achieved the highest accuracy (0.78 each), while LightGBM exhibited the highest specificity (0.93). SHAP analysis identified higher preoperative VBQ scores, larger T 1 pelvic angle (TPA), and higher paraspinal muscle FI as the main risk factors for MC. Based on the RF model, a LIME-based tool was successfully constructed for individualized MC risk estimation. Conclusion:The RF model demonstrated the best overall predictive performance for MC. A machine learning-based prediction model has the potential to provide valuable guidance for surgical decision-making in ASD patients.
