Spinal cord injury is a central nervous system disorder caused by direct or indirect trauma to the spinal cord, with an increasing incidence year by year. Neuroinflammation, oxidative stress, and local edema following spinal cord injury can lead to motor, sensory and cognitive impairment in patients, resulting in an extremely high disability rate. Conventional treatments primarily involve surgery combined with pharmacotherapy, yet clinical outcomes remain unsatisfactory. Hesperidin, a citrus-derived flavonoid and its derivatives (neohesperidin, hesperetin, etc.) exhibit anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, anti-apoptotic, and pyroptosis-inhibitory properties. When used in the management of spinal cord injury, they can effectively improve post-injury motor dysfunction. However, hesperidin and its derivatives still face problems such as poor blood-brain-spinal cord barrier penetration and incomplete understanding of their key mechanisms, limiting the efficacy of monotherapy with hesperidin and its derivatives in the management of spinal cord injurg. To this end, the authors reviewed the research progress on mechanism of action of hesperidin and its derivatives in the management of spinal cord injury, aiming to provide a reference for its future research and clinical application.

Background Staff in biosafety laboratories (BSL) are more likely to experience occupational burnout and other psychological issues due to their unique working environment and high job demands. However, current research in this field tends to focus on overall analyses, overlooking the internal differences within this group. Objective To explore latent profiles of occupational burnout among BSL workers and their influencing factors, providing a reference for targeted burnout interventions. Methods In 2022, cluster random sampling was used to select 8023 BSL workers in Xinjiang. Data were collected via a questionnaire survey, including a self-designed general information questionnaire, the Maslach Burnout Inventory-General Survey (MBI-GS), and the Effort-Reward Imbalance (ERI) scale, to analyze demographic characteristics, occupational burnout, and job stress status. After data cleaning, latent profile analysis (LPA) was applied to identify burnout profiles, followed by K-means clustering for verification. Logistic regression was used to analyze influencing factors with burnout profiles as the dependent variable. Results After excluding invalid questionnaires, 7924 valid questionnaires were retained, with an recovery rate of 98.77%. The LPA results indicated that occupational burnout among BSL staff was categorized into three latent profiles: a low burnout profile (2208 individuals, 27.86%), a moderate burnout profile (4636 individuals, 58.51%), and a high burnout profile (1080 individuals, 13.63%). A similar grouping was derived from K-means clustering analysis (28.71%, 53.37%, and 17.92%), and a Sankey diagram demonstrated significant overlap between the two classification results. Statistically significant differences were observed across the three latent profiles in all three dimensions of burnout: emotional exhaustion, cynicism, and reduced personal accomplishment. The final logistic regression model revealed that the influencing factors exhibited characteristics of partial overlap and partial differentiation. Among the common influencing factors, the shared protective factors included: age ≥50 years (OR_{moderate burnout}=0.42, OR_{high burnout}=0.45), monthly income of 4000-6000 RMB (OR_{moderate burnout}=0.83, OR_{high burnout}=0.71), good sleep quality (OR_{moderate burnout}=0.70, OR_{high burnout}=0.13) and very good sleep quality (OR_{moderate burnout}=0.51, OR_{high burnout}=0.12), and engaging in physical exercise ≥5 times per week (OR_{moderate burnout}=0.74, OR_{high burnout}=0.48). The protective effects were more pronounced for the high burnout profile. The common risk factors included: 21–30 years of service (OR_{moderate burnout}=1.38, OR_{high burnout}=3.00), ≥31 years of service (OR_{moderate burnout}=1.47, OR_{high burnout}=3.39), working in "other positions" (OR_{moderate burnout}=1.46, OR_{high burnout}=1.56), and occupational stress (ERI>1) (OR_{moderate burnout}=2.62, OR_{high burnout}=3.25), with the risk effects being more significant for the high burnout profile. Regarding differentiated influencing factors, protective factors exclusively associated with the moderate burnout profile included having an associate degree (OR=0.70) and engaging in physical exercise 3-4 times per week (OR=0.74). For the high burnout profile, exclusive protective factors included age 40-50 years (OR=0.56), while exclusive risk factors included having a senior professional title (OR=1.85), holding a managerial role (OR=1.78), a high number of night shifts per month (OR=2.66), and a very high number of night shifts per month (OR=3.93). Conclusion BSL workers exhibit three distinct latent burnout profiles. Occupational burnout requires greater attention, and targeted prevention and intervention strategies should be developed based on worker subtypes.

Objective:To investigate the status of iodine deficiency disorders in children and pregnant women in Ganzhou City, Jiangxi Province, and to provide a basis for scientific iodine supplementation and adjustment of prevention and control strategies.Methods:According to the requirements of the National Iodine Deficiency Disorders Surveillance Program (2016 Edition), iodine deficiency disorders surveillance was carried out in 18 counties (cities, districts) under the jurisdiction of Ganzhou City from 2018 to 2022. Edible salt and urine samples taken from children aged 8 to 10 and pregnant women were collected to detect salt and urine iodine levels. At the same time, B-ultrasound method was adopted to measure children's thyroid volume, and the goiter rate was calculated.Results:From 2018 to 2022, a total of 27 075 edible salt samples were collected from key populations (children aged 8 - 10 and pregnant women), with a median salt iodine of 25.00 mg/kg and a qualified iodized salt consumption rate of 96.24% (26 057/27 075). The difference in the qualified iodized salt consumption rate among key populations in different years was statistically significant (χ 2 = 29.09, P < 0.001). A total of 18 061 urine samples were collected from children, with a median urine iodine of 192.10 μg/L, there was a statistically significant difference in the urine iodine level of children between different years ( H = 82.59, P < 0.001). A total of 9 014 urine samples were collected from pregnant women, with a median urine iodine of 177.20 μg/L, there was a statistically significant difference in urine iodine level of pregnant women between different years ( H = 78.78, P < 0.001). A total of 8 621 children's thyroid glands were examined, including 34 cases of goiter, with a goiter rate of 0.39%, and the goiter rate showed a decreasing trend year by year (χ 2trend = 11.09, P < 0.001). Conclusions:From 2018 to 2022, the iodine nutrition of children and pregnant women in Ganzhou City is at an appropriate level, the consumption rate of qualified iodized salt (> 90%) and the children's goiter rate (< 5%) met the national iodine deficiency disorders elimination standards. Ganzhou City continues to maintain the status of eliminating iodine deficiency disorders.

Objective:To analyse the influence of endometrial polyps (EPs) treatment on the frozen-thawed embryo transfer (FET) pregnancy outcome.Methods:Using a retrospective case-control study, the data of patients were collected who received in vitro fertilization (IVF) and hysteroscopy in the Reproductive Medicine Center of Children's Hospital of Shanxi and Women Health Center of Shanxi from June 2021 to December 2022. Patients undergoing hysteroscopy were studied. According to the diagnosis results of hysteroscopy and pathology, they were selected as the EPs group or the non-endometrial polyps (NEPs) group. Then analysis of EPs risk factors was made, and the pregnancy outcome of FET after the EPs treatment was compared. Results:A total of 3 413 patients underwent hysteroscopy in this study. The EPs group included 444 patients and the NEPs group included 1 501 patients respectively. The prevalence of EPs was 13.01% (444/3 413). There were significant differences between EPs group and NEPs group in gravidity, parity, spontaneous abortion times, induced abortions times, basal follicle-stimulating hormone (bFSH), basal luteinizing hormone (bLH), infertility duration, infertility types, the prevalence of chronic endometritis, the history of polyps removal and endometriosis (all P<0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis of risk factors associated with EPs showed that infertility duration ( OR=1.068, 95% CI: 1.029-1.109, P<0.001), chronic endometritis ( OR=1.925, 95% CI: 1.481-2.502, P<0.001), primary infertility ( OR=1.803, 95% CI: 1.408-2.308, P<0.001), history of polyps removal ( OR=9.424, 95% CI: 5.586-15.897, P<0.001), endometriosis ( OR=2.432, 95% CI: 1.344-4.401, P=0.003) were independent risk factors for EPs, and bLH ( OR=0.954, 95% CI: 0.916-0.993, P=0.022) was an independent protective factor for EPs. Compared with NEPs transplantation group, there were no significant differences in clinical pregnancy rate, on-going pregnancy rate and none implantation rate in the EPs treatment transplantation group (all P>0.05). Conclusion:Infertility duration, chronic endometritis, primary infertility, history of polyps removal, endometriosis were independent risk factors, and bLH was an independent protective factor. Patients in EPs treatment transplantation group could achieve the similar pregnancy outcome as NEPs transplantation group.

Objective:To evaluate the feasibility of brain injury after cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) in rats based on T2WI image texture analysis.Methods:Eighteen SD rats were randomly divided into the sham group ( n=8) and model group ( n=10). The rats in the model group underwent MRI scanning at 6 h after return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC), and the rats in the sham group received MRI scanning at 6 h after the operation. The differences in the texture features of T2WI images and the expressions of AQP4 and NSE between the two groups were analyzed. The receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) was used to evaluate the diagnostic efficacy of statistically different texture features between the two groups for brain injury. The associations between texture features and AQP4 and NSE expressions in the sham group and model group were analyzed using Spearman correlation coefficients. Results:The minimum intensity, standard deviation, and inverse difference moment of the whole brain T2WI texture features of the model group were significantly lower than those of the sham group ( P<0.05), while the difference entropy and characteristics of high gray in homogeneity were significantly higher than those of the sham group ( P<0.05). The difference entropy was the best with an area under curve (AUC) of 0.922, a sensitivity of 100% and a specificity of 75%. The AQP4 and NSE expressions in the model group were significantly higher than those in the sham group ( P<0.05). The minimum intensity value was positively correlated with AQP4 and NSE expressions ( r=0.501, 0.568, P=0.048, 0.022). The standard deviation was positively correlated with AQP4 and NSE expressions ( r=0.620, 0.530, P=0.010, 0.035). The difference entropy was negatively correlated with AQP4 expression ( r=-0.535, P=0.033). Conclusions:Texture analysis on T2WI images can evaluate the degree of brain edema and neuronal damage. The minimum intensity, standard deviation, and difference entropy are sensitive indicators to evaluate brain injury after CPR, and difference entropy has the highest sensitivity and specificity.

Based on a review of currently published 40 papers ( 20 published in recent 5 years, 20 published in recent 10 years) on gold nanoparticles for cancer radiotherapy, the general characteristics, theoretical studies, in vitro experiment, in vivo experiment,and the clinical prospects of targeted radiotherapy with gold nanoparticles were reviewed. Three key aspects guarantee further investigation for the full understanding of the radiosensitization effect of gold nanoparticles:the cellular localization and tissue distribution of nanoparticles and influential factors;the micro dose enhancement effect of gold nanoparticles, and the molecular biological mechanism. More cross disciplinary collaboration, research, development and translation are needed before gold nanoparticles are put into clinical trials.

Objective To test the accuracy and reliability of Axesse accelerator for volumetric modulated arc therapy (VMAT).Methods The accuracy and reliability of Axesse accelerator for VMAT were tested in a stepwise manner, from the simple to the complex and from the part to the whole.For the parts of the system, the stability of dosimetric output and the position accuracy of multi-leaf collimator (MLC) were tested.For the process of the system, the variable VMAT dose rates and gantry speed modulation, the MLC speed and dose rate modulation, and dosimetric verification in patients were tested.Results Compared with fixed gantry irradiation, the variation in dosimetric output was below 1.0% for rotary irradiation including the slide rotary irradiation of the dynamic MLC.The MLC position error of 0.5 mm was visible using the electronic portal imaging system of Axesse, iViewGT 3.40.The MLC position accuracy was within 1 mm for fixed gantry irradiation and rotary irradiation.In the range of the dose rate applied in clinical practice, the testing results of variable VMAT dose rates and gantry speeds as well as variable dose rates and MLC speeds showed that the variation between different strip-field beam intensities was below 2.0%.Using a gamma criterion of 3 mm/3%, the pass rates in dosimetric verification of patients with cervical cancer, prostate cancer, and breast cancer were 96.52%, 95.72%, and 98.83%, respectively.Conclusions The Axesse system can precisely control MLC motion, variable dose rates, and gantry speeds in VMAT.The Axesse system is accurate and reliable for VMAT.
