AIM:To investigate the current status and influencing factors of knowledge-attitude-practice in myopia prevention and control among children and adolescents in Ningbo City, thereby providing a scientific basis for formulating targeted prevention strategies.METHODS: Children and adolescents aged 6-12 years old were selected from the medical-school collaborative myopia prevention network in Ningbo City between August 2024 and May 2025 using stratified cluster sampling. Information on myopia prevention knowledge(15 items)and practice(9 items)was collected through questionnaire surveys. Logistic regression models were used to analyze factors influencing myopia occurrence in children and adolescents.RESULTS: A total of 664 children and adolescents aged 6-12 years were enrolled in this study. Participants were divided by age into three groups: 6-7 years old(n=221), 8-9 years old(n=221), and 10-12 years old(n=222). Of the 664 questionnaires distributed, 637 valid questionnaires were returned(201 from the 6-7 age group, 235 from the 8-9 age group, and 201 from the 10-12 age group), yielding an effective response rate of 95.9%. Based on myopia screening results, the non-myopic group comprised 203 participants(31.9%), including 100 males and 103 females, with a mean age of 8.82±1.98 years old. The myopic group comprised 434 participants(68.1%), including 213 males and 221 females, with a mean age of 9.10±1.95 years old. The myopia prevalence rates in the 6-7, 8-9, and 10-12 age groups were 37.8%(76/201), 71.9%(169/235), and 94.0%(189/201), respectively(P<0.001). Regarding the knowledge and practice of myopia prevention, the overall awareness rate in the non-myopic group(59.7%±9.7%)was significantly higher than that in the myopic group(48.7%±8.5%; P<0.001). Additionally, the non-myopic group scored higher on the key practice of “regular eye examinations”(4.27±0.96)compared to the myopic group(4.10±1.05; P<0.05). Logistic regression analysis indicated that age was the primary risk factor for myopia occurrence.CONCLUSION: Age is the dominant factor in the onset of myopia, and there is a phenomenon of “knowledge-practice gap”; the traditional health education model has limitations, and a precise prevention and control system based on developmental patterns should be established.

Objective:To analyze the changing trends and international differences in the incidence and disability-adjusted life years (DALY) of hypertensive disorders in pregnancy (HDP) in China from 1990 to 2021 based on the Global Burden of Disease (GBD) database.Methods:The data were derived from the GBD database, covering the incidence and DALY data of HDP in countries or regions around the world. Descriptive statistics were used to compare the differences in disease burden between China and different regions of Europe, America and other developed countries, and to analyze the disease burden characteristics of women of childbearing age in different age groups (every 5 years). The Joinpoint regression model was used to identify trend change points. The age-period-cohort model was used to analyze the independent effects of age, period and birth cohort.Results:(1) From 1990 to 2021, the incidence of HDP in China showed an overall downward trend, from 387.18/100 000 in 1990 to 216.35/100 000 in 2021. Compared with the global incidence rate (1990: 1 167.28/100 000; 2021: 923.48/100 000), the incidence rate of HDP in China was relatively low, but it was still higher than that in some developed countries. (2) The analysis of the Joinpoint regression model showed that the incidence rate of HDP in different age groups first decreased, then increased, and finally leveled off. The connection point with the lowest point was in 2005. DALY showed a continuous downward trend in all age groups. Among them, the decline in maternal DALY of pregnant women in all age groups from 15 to 39 years old was more obvious. (3) The age-period-cohort effect model showed that the incidence rate and DALY of HDP in women of childbearing age aged 20 to 24 years reached their peak.Conclusions:The burden of HDP in China continues to decrease, and the disease prevention and control has achieved remarkable results, but the incidence rate is still higher than that in some developed countries. It is suggested that personalized interventions should be developed for different risk groups to further reduce the burden of disease.

Objective:This study aims to investigate sex-specific abnormalities?? in gray matter volume (GMV) in Children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and their associations with gene expression.Methods:T 1-weighted brain MRI data were collected at the MRI Center of the University of Electronic Science and Technology of China between 2022 and 2023 from 100 children with ASD and 90 typically developing (TD) children. Voxel-based morphometry (VBM) was used to explore GMV differences between ASD boys and TD boys, and between ASD girls and TD girls. Partial least squares regression (PLSR) was performed based on the Allen Human Brain Atlas to identify genes associated with GMV alterations, followed by enrichment analyses. Cell-type-specific expression analyses were used to examine associations across developmental stages and brain structures. Protein-protein interaction (PPI) networks were constructed to identify hub proteins. Results:Compared to TD boys, ASD boys showed increased GMV in the right superior temporal gyrus, middle temporal gyrus, inferior temporal gyrus, temporal pole, parahippocampal gyrus, fusiform gyrus, cuneus, and precuneus, as well as in the bilateral orbital part of the superior frontal gyrus and the gyrus rectus. Decreased GMV was observed in the cerebellar vermis and bilateral cerebellar hemispheres. A total of 635 genes were associated with these GMV alterations, enriched in pathways related to DNA-templated transcription, RNA metabolism and biogenesis, and ion binding. Developmental analysis indicated strong associations with the cerebellum during early, middle-to-late childhood, and adolescence, and with the cerebral cortex in early adulthood. Protein-protein interaction (PPI) network analysis highlighted NOB1, GNL3L, ESF1, TFB2M, and WDR75 as specific hub proteins. Compared to TD girls, ASD girls exhibited increased GMV in the right middle and inferior temporal gyri, temporal pole, and fusiform gyrus, and decreased GMV in the cerebellar vermis and bilateral cerebellar hemispheres. A total of 765 genes were associated, enriched in pathways related to ion channel activity, signal transduction, and regulation of membrane potential. These genes showed strong associations with the amygdala during mid-to-late fetal development, middle-to-late childhood, adolescence, and early adulthood; with the cerebellum during late infancy, early childhood, and early adulthood; with the cerebral cortex during the mid-to-late fetal development, early neonatal period, and adolescence; with the hippocampus during middle-to-late childhood and adolescence; with the striatum during adolescence and early adulthood; and with the thalamus during early-to-mid fetal development, early neonatal period, and early adulthood. PPI network analysis identified ANK3, ANK1, SCN4B, NFKB1, and PXN as specific hub proteins. Conclusion:Both ASD boys and ASD girls exhibit GMV abnormalities compared with TD controls. The specific genes associated with GMV alterations are enriched in distinct biological pathways in boys and girls. Cell-type-specific expression analyses further revealed sex-dependent differences in developmental timing and brain structural correlations, and distinct PPI networks were constructed for each group.

Anticipatory anxiety is a negative emotion that arises when individuals encounter potential threats or uncertainties in the future. It is the core symptom of a variety of anxiety disorders, and is closely associated with the occurrence, severity, treatment outcome, and prognosis of anxiety disorders, which has garnered a growing amount of focus in clinical practice. Nevertheless, scientific research on anticipatory anxiety continues to face obstacles such as unclear pathological mechanisms, the absence of simple and consistent self-assessment tools, and effective interventions. To improve understanding of the role of anticipatory anxiety in the diagnosis and treatment of anxiety disorders, this study reviews pertinent domestic and international literature, and briefly introduces the concept, assessment and measurement, activation paradigm, pathological mechanisms, and interventions of anticipatory anxiety.

Objective:To evaluate the clinical efficacy of the Masquelet technique (induced membrane technique) combined with an antibiotic-impregnated bone cement-coated plate for the treatment of infected nonunion following internal fixation of clavicle fractures.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on 12 patients with clavicular infected nonunion who underwent staged treatment using the Masquelet technique combined with an antibiotic-loaded bone cement-coated plate between May 2021 and May 2023 in the Second Ward of Traumatic Orthopedics at Gansu Provincial People's Hospital. The cohort included 8 males and 4 females, with a mean age of 28.8±3.1 years (range: 12-48 years). Among them, 10 cases had mid-third clavicular defects, and 2 cases had lateral third defects. All 12 cases involved nonunion due to bone infection following internal fixation of clavicle fractures, with 6 cases initially fixed with Kirschner wires and 6 with plates. The induced membrane technique was applied in two stages. Stage One: Radical debridement was performed, including removal of the original internal fixation and infected necrotic tissue. A plate was implanted, and the bone defect area was filled with antibiotic-loaded bone cement, fully encapsulating the plate. Stage Two: Bone graft reconstruction was carried out 6-8 weeks later, after infection control was confirmed. The induced membrane was incised, the bone cement was removed, and a bone graft was placed within the membrane. Outcomes included infection control, bone union time, pain visual analogue scale (VAS), and Constant-Murley shoulder score (CMS) at the final follow-up.Results:The interval between the first and second surgeries was 7.42±1.17 weeks (range: 6-10 weeks). All 12 patients were followed up for a mean duration of 16.4±3.9 months (range: 12-24 months). One patient experienced recurrent infection after the first-stage surgery, which was controlled after repeat debridement and replacement of antibiotic-loaded bone cement, with no recurrence during follow-up. All 12 patients achieved bony union, with a mean healing time of 3.42±0.67 months (range: 3-5 months). Radiographs showed continuous bone cortex with no visible fracture lines. At the final follow-up, the mean VAS score was 0.42±0.51, significantly lower than the preoperative score of 6.68±1.12 ( t=18.711, P<0.001). The mean CMS score was 88.93±3.94, significantly higher than the preoperative score of 44.41±7.15 ( t=20.786, P<0.001). Conclusion:The Masquelet technique combined with an antibiotic-loaded bone cement-coated plate is effective in treating infected nonunion after internal fixation of clavicle fractures, significantly improving acromioclavicular joint function.
