Objective:To explore the feasibility, safety, and effectiveness of a novel suture instrument for closure of full thickness defects of the gastric wall under gastroscopy.Methods:Ten pigs were used as experimental animals. Perforation model (30 mm in long diameter) was created in the stomach of each pig. The perforations were then closed by the novel suture instrument under gastroscopy. The completion time and efficacy of each perforation repair were recorded. The pigs were euthanized 14 days after the procedure. The healing condition was observed under gastroscopy. A postmortem examination was performed to observe the abdominal infection and healing condition of perforation. Ascites sample was taken for bacterial culture.The stomach biopsy were taken for histopathologic examination.Results:All gastric perforation models in the 10 pigs were established successfully. Endoscopic closure for the stomach perforation was technically successful in all 10 pigs. The procedure time was 34.10±10.32 minutes. All animals survived. Gastroscopy and necropsy showed that the perforation healed well with local adhesion. One pig developed abdominal infection. Ascites culture were negative in 9 cases, 1 bacterial infection was caused by Arcanobacterium pyogenes and Escherichiacoli. The pathology results showed that the muscular layer of the gastric wall defect in the entire group was well repaired. Conclusion:The novel suture instrument is safe and effective in repairing full-thickness gastric wall defects under ordinary single clamp gastroscopy, providing an experimental basis for further clinical research.

With the high incidence of neurological diseases such as stroke and mental illness, rehabilitation treatments for neurological disorders have received widespread attention. Electroencephalography (EEG) technology, despite its excellent temporal resolution, has historically been limited in application due to its insufficient spatial resolution, and is mainly confined to preoperative assessment, intraoperative monitoring, and epilepsy detection. However, traditional constraints of EEG technology are being overcome with the popularization of EEG technology with high-density over 64-lead, the application of innovative analysis techniques and the integration of multimodal techniques, which are significantly broadening its applications in clinical settings. These advancements have not only reinforced the irreplaceable role of EEG technology in neurorehabilitation assessment, but also expanded its therapeutic potential through its combined use with technologies such as transcranial magnetic stimulation, transcranial electrical stimulation and brain-computer interfaces. This article reviewed the applications, advancements, and future prospects of EEG technology in neurorehabilitation assessment and treatment. Advancements in technology and interdisciplinary collaboration are expected to drive new applications and innovations in EEG technology within the neurorehabilitation field, providing patients with more precise and personalized rehabilitation strategies.

COVID-19 is caused by the 2019 novel coronavirus (2019-nCoV). COVID-19 clinical cases are considered as the principal source of infection, however, asymptomatic cases may also play a role in the transmission. Significant gap exists in terms of the proportion or prevalence and transmissibility of asymptomatic cases. This study design plans to use data from areas with different epidemiological profiles to investigate the COVID-19 epidemic in China. In each selected region, both general community residents and key populations at high risk of COVID-19 infection, including recovered COVID-19 cases, close contacts of confirmed COVID-19 cases, medical professionals, investigators at CDCs, and visitors to fever clinics, will be recruited and examined for viral RNA of 2019-nCoV and serum antibodies. Prevalence and characterization of asymptomatic cases will be determined, stratified by varied demographics and exposure risk. During the follow-up, the change in the serum antibodies will be studied prospectively in the symptomatic and asymptomatic cases to address the scientific and public health concerns of infectivity and transmissibility of 2019-nCoV.
