Objective To analyze the effect of releasing the lower pulmonary ligament on right residual lung expansion after right upper lobe resection under different body mass index (BMI) levels. Methods The clinical data of patients who underwent thoracoscopic right upper lobe resection in the First Affiliated Hospital with Nanjing Medical University from 2021 to 2022 were retrospectively analyzed. Patients were divided into a group A (17 kg/m2<BMI≤23 kg/m2), a group B (23 kg/m2<BMI≤29 kg/m2) and a group C (BMI>29 kg/m2) according to BMI. The presence of residual cavity was judged by chest X-ray at 7-10 days after operation, the degree of compensation change of the right main bronchus angle was measured, and the changes in lung volume were determined by CT three-dimensional reconstruction. Results A total of 157 patients who underwent thoracoscopic right upper lobe resection were included, including 71 males and 86 females, with an average age of (59.7±11.2) years. There were 50 patients in the group A, 75 patients in the group B, and 32 patients in the group C. In the group A, compared with those without releasing the lower pulmonary ligament, patients with releasing had a lower incidence of postoperative residual cavity (P=0.016), greater changes in bronchus angle (P<0.001), and smaller changes in lung volume (P<0.001). In the group B and C, there was no significant effect of releasing the lower pulmonary ligament on postoperative residual cavity, bronchus angle, and lung volume changes (P>0.05). Conclusion For patients with thin and long body shape and low BMI, releasing the lower pulmonary ligament is helpful to promote the expansion of the residual lung after right upper lobe resection and reduce the occurrence of postoperative residual cavity in patients.

Objective:
To systematically evaluate the performance of machine learning (ML) models in predicting non suicidal self injury (NSSI) behavior among adolescents, providing an evidence based foundation for the development of clinically applicable risk assessment tools.
Methods:
A comprehensive search was conducted in PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, CNKI, and Wanfang databases for relevant studies from their inception to July 21, 2025. The Prediction Model Risk of Bias Assessment Tool (PROBAST) was used to evaluate the methodological quality of the included studies. Stata 18 software was used to calculate the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) of the models, and publication bias assessment, sensitivity analysis, and Egger s test were performed.
Results:
The total of 12 studies (42 prediction models) involving 58 070 adolescents were included. There were 15 machine learning algorithms in total, among which Random Forest, Logistic Regression, XGBoost, and Support Vector Machines were the most frequently utilized. The most common predictors were gender (female), family function, depression, emotion regulation, and age. All 12 included studies exhibited a high risk of bias. The pooled AUC was 0.80 (95% CI =0.78-0.82), although heterogeneity was substantial ( I 2=95.8%, P <0.01). Sensitivity analysis confirmed the robustness of these findings (no overlap in 95% CI ), while Egger s test indicated the presence of publication bias ( P <0.05).
Conclusions
Machine learning demonstrates potential in the risk prediction of adolescent NSSI, but existing models have a high risk of bias. Future research should focus on improving methodological quality and optimizing model reliability through rigorous external validation.

Chinese Journal of Radiological Health 2026;35(2):180-186
Objective To investigate the imaging features and diagnostic value of mammography and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in different molecular subtypes of breast cancer. Methods A total of 126 breast cancer patients treated between January 2023 and January 2025 were enrolled, including 36 cases of Luminal A, 30 cases of Luminal B, 32 cases of HER-2 overexpression, and 28 cases of triple-negative breast cancer. The mammographic and MRI features, as well as the detection rates of mammography and MRI, were compared among the different molecular subtypes. Results The proportion of triple-negative breast cancers presenting as masses on mammography was higher than those of other subtypes (P<0.05), while the proportion of calcification was lower than other subtypes (P<0.05). Luminal A tumors showed a lower proportion of masses with indistinct margins on mammography compared with other subtypes (P<0.05), but a higher proportion of spiculated margins compared with HER-2 overexpression and triple-negative subtypes (P<0.05). On MRI, the proportion of triple-negative breast cancers presenting as masses was higher than those of other subtypes (P<0.05). The apparent diffusion coefficients of Luminal A and Luminal B breast cancers were higher than those of other subtypes (P<0.05). The detection rate of Luminal B breast cancer was higher on MRI than that on mammography (P<0.05). Conclusion Mammographic and MRI features differed significantly among molecular subtypes of breast cancer. Both mammography and MRI showed high detection rates across subtypes, with MRI demonstrating a higher detection rate than mammography in Luminal B breast cancer.

Objective:
To investigate the association between overweight, obesity, central obesity and hypertension, so as to provide the basis for formulating targeted hypertension prevention and control strategies.
Methods:
Permanent residents aged ≥18 years were selected in Wenzhou City, Zhejiang Province from June 2023 to August 2024 by a multistage cluster random sampling method. Data on demographic information, lifestyle, height, weight, waist circumference (WC), blood pressure, and blood biochemical indicators were collected through questionnaire surveys, physical examinations, and laboratory tests. The prevalence of hypertension was calculated and standardized using the data of the Sixth National Population Census in 2010. Body mass index (BMI) was calculated to determine overweight and obesity, while WC was used to identify central obesity. The association between overweight, obesity, central obesity and hypertension were analyzed using multivariable logistic regression models.
Results:
A total of 38 593 residents were surveyed, including 19 481 (50.48%) males and 19 112 (49.52%) females. The median age was 46.00 (interquartile range, 26.00) years. The rates of overweight, obesity, and central obesity were 32.74% (12 634 individuals), 10.27% (3 963 individuals), and 27.87% (10 755 individuals), respectively. There were 11 813 cases of hypertension, with a prevalence and standardized prevalence of 30.61% and 24.41%, respectively. Multivariable logistic regression analysis showed that after adjusting for demographic information, lifestyle, diabetes and dyslipidemia, the likelihood of hypertension in the overweight and obesity groups was 1.927 (95%CI: 1.815-2.045) times and 3.724 (95%CI: 3.404-4.073) times that of the normal BMI group, respectively. The likelihood of hypertension in the central obesity group was 2.346 (95%CI: 2.214-2.486) times that of the normal WC group. The likelihood of hypertension in the central obesity only, overweight only, overweight with central obesity, obesity only and obesity with central obesity groups was 1.586 (95%CI: 1.391-1.809), 1.704 (95%CI: 1.582-1.835), 2.433 (95%CI: 2.254-2.626), 1.768 (95%CI: 1.424-2.194), and 4.466 (95%CI: 4.053-4.921) times that of the normal BMI and WC group, respectively.
Conclusions
Overweight, obesity and central obesity were all associated with hypertension among adult residents. The highest likelihood of hypertension was observed among adult residents with both general obesity and central obesity.

Objective:Cognitive interviews were used to explore the target population's understanding and cognition of the Questionnaire about Gynaecological and Pelvic Pain Symptoms (ENDOPAIN-4D) in the Chinese context. The consistency of language expression and concept between the Chinese version ENDOPAIN-4D and the original scale was verified.Methods:Qualitative research methods were employed. Objective sampling method was used to select the patients with endometriosis/adenomyosis in the gynecological ward of Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences & Peking Union Medical College Hospital from October to December 2023 as the interview subjects. Two rounds of cognitive interviews were conducted, and the interview data were coded and analyzed using the Question Appraisal System. Based on the interview results and the recommendations of the expert group, the scale items were revised to form the Chinese version of ENDOPAIN-4D, and reliability and validity tests were conducted.Results:This study ultimately included 24 patients with endometriosis/adenomyosis, aged 24-47 years. The results of the first round of interviews showed that some interviewees had ambiguous understandings of the 16 items in the questionnaire, most of the item questions were concentrated in the category of "3 clarity, 4 hypotheses", and a small number of questions appeared in the category of "2 guidance, 5 knowledge/memory, 7 options", and were revised. The results of the second round of interviews showed that respondents could correctly understand the scale items. The Cronbach α coefficient of the total scale was 0.874, and the retest reliability was 0.952. The correlation coefficient of the Chinese version of the Global Pain Scale as the reference index of compatibility validity was 0.764 ( P<0.01), and the exploratory factor analysis extracted a total of 4 dimensions, with a cumulative variance contribution rate of 61.169%. The final formal questionnaire included 21 items in 4 dimensions including spontaneous pelvic pain, pain during sexual intercourse, intestinal pain and/or symptoms, and other symptoms. Conclusions:Cognitive interviews were used to identify cognitive biases in the target population during the completion of the scale and to address them appropriately, reducing the differences in the target population's understanding of the ENDOPAIN-4D scale and improving its scientific validity and reliability.
