Objective: To develop an assessment tool for risky road behavior tendencies among middle school students in western China, as well as to determine the relevant indices and their weights, so as to provide the reference for road safety prevention and control for middle school students in western China. Methods: A Delphi study was employed to construct the assessment tool for risky road behavior tendencies among middle school students in western China. In August 2023, eighteen experts in related fields such as traffic safety, education, and healthcare were invited to achieve Delphi consensus. The final indices were initially selected based on the consulting results,followed by the determination of their individual and combined weights using the analytic hierarchy process. Results: The finalized assessment tool comprised 3 primary indicators, 13 secondary indicators, and 100 tertiary indicators. The positivity coefficient of experts was 100%, accompanied by the authority coefficient 0.90. The mean importance scores for the three primary indicators varied from 4.67 to 4.78, while those for the 13 secondary indicators ranged from 4.22 to 4.89. The Kendall coefficient W was statistically significant at 0.32 ( χ 2=96.83, P <0.05). The weights assigned to the three primary indicators were:ability (0.329 4), opportunity (0.337 3), and motivation (0.333 3). The secondary indicators with the top three highest combined weights were social influence (0.027 4), knowledge (0.027 3), and skills (0.026 7). Conclusions The assessment tool for risky road behavior tendencies among middle school students in western China demonstrates high expert consensus, with balanced weighting of primary and secondary indicators. Expanded use of the assessment tool would provide the data support for intervention work.

Objective:To explore the effects of phased goal directed fluid therapy (GDFT) during anesthesia surgery on tissue perfusion and cognitive function in patients undergoing radical lung cancer surgery.Methods:A total of 108 lung cancer patients were prospectively selected and randomly divided into a control group and a study group using a random number table method. The control group received classical restrictive liquid therapy, while the study group received staged GDFT. We compared the surgical time, intraoperative blood loss, colloid fluid dosage, crystalloid fluid dosage, total output, and urine volume between two groups of patients; Two groups of patients were compared in terms of oxygenation index (OI), respiratory index (RI), central venous oxygen saturation (ScvO 2), lactate (Lac), central venous arterial carbon dioxide partial pressure difference (Pcv-aCO 2), oxygen supply index (DO 2I), and oxygen uptake rate (O 2ERe) before anesthesia induction (T 0), before single lung ventilation (T 1), 1 hour of single lung ventilation (T 2), immediate resumption of dual lung ventilation (T 3), 30 minutes of dual lung ventilation (T 4), and after surgery (T 5); The Mini Mental State Examination (MMSE) was used to evaluate the cognitive function scores of two groups of patients 1 day before surgery and 1 and 3 days after surgery, while recording the incidence of cognitive dysfunction (POCD) and pulmonary complications (including pulmonary infection, acute lung injury, pulmonary embolism, pulmonary edema, atelectasis, etc.) within 3 days after surgery. Results:The amount of crystal fluid and urine output in the research group was significantly lower than that in the control group, while the amount of colloidal fluid was significantly higher than that in the control group (all P<0.05). The OI of the study group T 1-T 5 was significantly higher than that of the control group, while the RI of T 2-T 5 was significantly lower than that of the control group (all P<0.05). The ScvO 2 of the study group T 1 to T 5 was significantly higher than that of the control group, and the Lac was significantly lower than that of the control group (all P<0.05); The MMSE scores of both groups of patients were significantly lower than those before surgery on day 1 and 3 after surgery, and the MMSE scores of the study group were significantly higher than those of the control group on day 1 and 3 after surgery (all P<0.05). The incidence of POCD within 3 days after surgery in the study group was 16.67%(9/54), lower than 37.04%(20/54) in the control group (χ 2=5.704, P=0.017); The incidence of pulmonary complications in the study group was lower than that in the control group (5.56% vs 22.22%, χ 2=4.955, P=0.026). Conclusions:The application of staged GDFT during anesthesia in patients undergoing radical lung cancer surgery can further improve tissue perfusion, improve microcirculation and oxygen supply-demand balance of systemic organs and tissues, including the brain, alleviate perioperative brain function damage, and reduce the occurrence of postoperative POCD compared to conventional liquid therapy.

Objective To observe changes of CT quantitative indexes in patients with untreated chronic obstructive pulmonary disease(COPD)and relationships with pulmonary function indicators.Methods Totally 99 patients with untreated COPD were retrospectively enrolled.According to the degrees of airflow obstruction,the patients were divided into group A(GOLD grade 1 with mild obstruction,n=36),group B(GOLD 2 with moderate obstruction,n=37)and group C(GOLD 3 or 4 with obvious obstruction,n=26).The results of chest CT and pulmonary function tests conducted at the first diagnosis and the follow-up,as well as their correlations were analyzed.CT quantitative indicators included the whole lung volume,low-attenuation areas less than-950 percentage(LAA％),total number of vessels per 1 cm2 of lung surface area(Ntotal/LSA),total number of vessels with area less than 5 mm2 per 1 cm2 of lung surface area(N＜5mm2/LSA),the square root of the wall area of a hypothetical airway with a 10 mm internal perimeter(Pi10),the entire volume,wall thickness and wall area percentage(WA％)of airway wall,etc.,while results of pulmonary function tests included the forced expiratory volume in one second(FEV1)after administration of a bronchodilator,forced vital capacity(FVC),the ratio FEV1/FVC and FEV1 expressed as percent predicted(FEV1％).Results Compared with those at the first diagnosis,the follow-up results of FVC,FEV1,FEV1/FVC,Ntotal/LSA and N＜5mm2/LSA were lower,whereas LAA％,Pi10 and entire volume of airway were all higher in each group(all P＜0.05).Compared with those in group A,group B and C had decreased LAA％and increased Pi10,and the magnitude increased with the severity of airflow obstruction(all P＜0.05).LAA％,Pi1o and entire volume of airway wall were negatively correlated with pulmonary function indicators(all P＜0.05),while Ntotal/LSA and N＜5 mm2/LSA were positively correlated with pulmonary function indicators(all P＜0.05).Conclusion CT quantitative parameters,including LAA％,Ntotal/LSA,N＜5mm2/LSA,Pi10 and entire volume of airway wall were related to pulmonary function,which might reflect the longitudinal changes of airways and blood vessels in COPD patients.

Immune checkpoint inhibitors(ICIs),including cytotoxic T-lymphocyte-associated protein 4(CTLA-4)inhibitors and programmed cell death receptor 1(PD-1)inhibitors and their ligand 1(PD-L1)inhibitors,have transformed the clinical outcomes of many patients with malignancies.programmed cell death receptor 1(PD-1)inhibitors and their ligand 1(PD-L1)inhibitors have changed the clinical outcomes of many patients with malignan-cies and have become the most important anti-tumor tools available.With the widespread use of immunotherapy,immune-related adverse events(irAEs)induced by ICIs have gradually attracted clinical attention,among which ICI-related colitis has become the most common adverse event in the gastrointestinal system.In this paper,we describe the epidemiology,pathogenesis and clinical management of ICI-related colitis,with the aim of providing reference for clinicians to identify and treat ICI-related colitis in a timely manner.

Objective:To observe any effect of bilateral high-frequency repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) of the cerebellum on the swallowing of stroke survivors with dysphagia.Methods:Thirty-eight patients with post-stroke dysphagia were randomly divided into a cerebellar stimulation group of 20 and a sham group of 18. In addition to drug therapy and physical rehabilitation training, the cerebellar stimulation group received 500 pulses of rTMS of the cerebellum daily at 10Hz and 120% of the resting movement threshold lasting 1s at 9s intervals. The sham stimulation group was treated with sham rTMS (with the angle between the stimulation coil and the scalp at 90°). Twenty minutes later, both groups were given 30 minutes of routine swallowing training daily by the same speech therapist. The treatment was administered 5 times a week for 3 weeks. Before the treatment and afterward, both groups′ swallowing was evaluated y videofluoroscopic swallowing study (VFSS), using a functional dysphagia scale (FDS) and using the Rosenbek penetration aspiration scale (PAS). Oral transport time, swallowing response time, pharyngeal transport time, laryngeal vestibular closure time and upper esophageal sphincter opening duration were recorded, and the changes in swallowing function and swallowing time parameters before and after the treatment were compared between the two groups.Results:Before the stimulation there were no significant differences between the two groups. Afterward, the average PAS and FDS scores of both groups had improved significantly, but with significantly greater improvement in the cerebellar stimulation group than in the sham group. Average oral transit time and swallow response time had shortened significantly, but with significantly shorter time, on average, in the cerebellar stimulation group.Conclusion:Bilateral high-frequency rTMS of the cerebellum can improve the swallowing of persons with dysphagia, and shorten their oral transit time and swallow response time.

In vitro cell experiment based on serum pharmacology is a common way to study the pharmacodynamic mechanism of Chinese medicine， and screening the optimal intervention concentration of serum containing Chinese medicine is a key step in the whole experiment. Over-diluted serum containing Chinese medicine or over-high concentration leads to false negative or positive results， while the optimal concentration of medicated serum reduces the number of groups in subsequent experiments as well as the operation error. Thus it is of great significance to screen the optimal serum concentration in studying the pharmacodynamic mechanism of Chinese medicine in in vitro cell experiments. However， there has been no unified standards for the screening methods at present. After reviewing the literature in China and abroad in the past 20 years， this paper conducted an analysis from three aspects of intragastric dose of Chinese medicine， blood collection time and serum dilution degree， and then summarized the screening methods for optimal concentration of serum containing drugs， providing guidance for the study of pharmacodynamic mechanism of Chinese medicine. The screening methods mainly included "same intragastric dose， same blood collection time， and different concentrations" "different intragastric doses， same blood collection time， and same concentration" "same intragastric dose， different blood collection time， and same concentration" "different intragastric doses， different blood collection time， and different concentrations" "serum lyophilized powder" "simulation of gradient concentration of serum containing western medicine" and "pure serum intervention". Among them， the former two were the dominant ways in current related research. The above screening methods had their own advantages and disadvantages， and researchers should make a reasonable choice according to the specific requirements and actual situation of the experiments.

Magnetic ferrite nanoparticles (MFNPs) have great application potential in biomedical fields such as magnetic resonance imaging, targeted drugs, magnetothermal therapy and gene delivery. MFNPs can migrate under the action of a magnetic field and target specific cells or tissues. However, to apply MFNPs to organisms, further modifications on the surface of MFNPs are required. In this paper, the common modification methods of MFNPs are reviewed, their applications in medical fields such as bioimaging, medical detection, and biotherapy are summarized, and the future application directions of MFNPs are further prospected.

Objective:To observe any stimulatory effect of intermittent theta burst stimulation (iTBS) on the cerebral swallowing cortex and the cerebellar swallowing motor area and to explore the related mechanisms.Methods:Forty-four healthy right-handed subjects were divided at random into a dominant cerebellum group ( n=15), a non-dominant cerebellum group ( n=15) and a control group ( n=14). In the dominant cerebellum group, iTBS was administered to the cerebellum of the dominant hemisphere, and the other hemisphere was given sham stimulation. In the non-dominant cerebellum group, it was the opposite. The dominant cerebellum received the sham stimulation. In the control group both hemispheres received sham stimulation. Before and after the stimulation, single-pulse transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) was applied to the representative regions of suprahyoid muscles in bilateral brain and cerebellum to observe changes of the latency and amplitude of motor evoked potentials (MEPs). Results:After the intervention the MEP amplitude of the bilateral swallowing cortex and the stimulated cerebellum had increased in the non-dominant cerebellum group, with increased MEP amplitude only from the stimulated cerebellum of the dominant cerebellum group. Compared with the control group, the non-dominant cerebellum group showed the greatest improvement in MEP amplitude of the stimulated bilateral cerebral cortex and cerebellum. Improvement in the dominant cerebellum group was significantly smaller. However, there were no significant differences in MEP latency or the percentage change in MEP latency from baseline among the three groups.Conclusions:Applying iTBS to either the non-dominant or the dominant cerebellum excites the brain areas related to swallowing, but in different ways.
