Objective To understand the current situation of nutrition literacy of primary and secondary school students in Shijingshan District of Beijing, and analyze its influencing factors, and to put forward targeted suggestions for improving the students’ nutrition literacy and promoting their healthy growth. Methods A multi-stage stratified cluster sampling method was used to select 2480 primary and secondary school students and their parents from 5 primary schools, 3 middle schools and 1 high school in Shijingshan District. The multivariate logistic regression model was used to analyze the factors influencing the attainment rate of nutrition literacy. Results The median score of nutrition literacy of 2480 primary and secondary school students from grades 1 to 12 was 77.86 (in hundred-mark system), the quartile range (IQR) was 16.96, and the attainment rate of nutrition literacy was 42.46%. The cognitive level (45.12%) was higher than the skill level (41.20%) among students from grades 3 to 12. In terms of skills, the attainment rate of food preparation was the lowest, at 30.38%. The scores of nutrition literacy of girls were higher than those of boys, and the scores of primary school students were higher than those of secondary school students. Students with different levels of caregiver’s education, family income, and family food environment had different scores of nutrition literacy, and the differences were statistically significant (P<0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the attainment rate of nutrition literacy was closely related to student’s gender and study stage, caregiver’s education level, and family food environment. Conclusion The nutrition literacy of primary and secondary school students in Shijingshan District still needs to be improved, especially in the aspect of skills. Targeted nutrition education should be carried out.

Objective To systematically evaluate the efficacy and safety of proximal gastrectomy (PG) versus total gastrectomy (TG) for the treatment of Siewert type Ⅱ/Ⅲ adenocarcinoma of the esophagogastric junction (AEG). Methods PubMed, The Cochrane Library, Web of Science, EMbase, CNKI, Wanfang, and VIP databases were searched for literature comparing the efficacy and safety of PG and TG for the treatment of Siewert type Ⅱ/Ⅲ AEG. The search period was from database inception to March 2023. Meta-analysis was performed using Review Manager 5.4 software. Results A total of 23 articles were included, including 16 retrospective cohort studies, 5 prospective cohort studies, and 2 randomized controlled trials. The total sample size was 2 826 patients, with 1 389 patients undergoing PG and 1 437 patients undergoing TG. Meta-analysis results showed that compared with TG, PG had less intraoperative blood loss [MD=−19.85, 95%CI (−37.20, −2.51), P=0.02] and shorter postoperative hospital stay [MD=−1.23, 95%CI (−2.38, −0.08), P=0.04]. TG had a greater number of lymph nodes dissected [MD=−6.20, 95%CI (−7.68, −4.71), P<0.001] and a lower incidence of reflux esophagitis [MD=3.02, 95%CI (1.24, 7.34), P=0.01]. There were no statistically significant differences between the two surgical approaches in terms of operative time, postoperative survival rate (1-year, 3-year, 5-year), and postoperative overall complications (P>0.05). Conclusion PG has advantages in terms of intraoperative blood loss and postoperative hospital stay, while TG has advantages in terms of the number of lymph nodes dissected and the incidence of reflux esophagitis. There is no significant difference in long-term survival between the two surgical approaches.

Objective To explore the effect and mechanism of Baicalein in the treatment of hyperuricemia.Methods The mouse model of hyperuricemia was established by yeast extract combined with potassium oxazinate.The effect and potential mechanism of Baicalein in the treatment of hyperuricemia were studied by biochemical indexes,pathological changes,non-target metabonomics and network pharmacology.Results Baicalein could reduce the contents of serum uric acid,creatinine and blood urea nitrogen,reduce the inflammatory injury of renal tissue,up-regulate the expression level of uric acid excretion protein and down-regulate the expression level of uric acid reabsorption protein.Nine disease-related targets such as BCL2,SIRT1 and XDH were screened by network pharmacology.Six key metabolic pathways including nicotinic acid and nicotinamide metabolism,caffeine metabolism and purine metabolism were screened by metabonomics analysis.Conclusions Baicalein can treat hyperuricemia and reduce renal injury,and its mechanism may be related to the metabolic pathways of nicotinic acid and nicotinamide regulated by SIRT1 and quinolinate.

Objective:To explore the short-term efficacy on 3D printing assisted reconstruction of traumatic digit joint defects using rib and costo-osteochondral autograft.Methods:From August 2022 to July 2023, 7 patients with open digit joint defects had undergone emergency primary debridement and fracture fixation in the Department of Orthopaedics, 988th Hospital of the Joint Logistics Support Force of PLA. Patients with more phalangeal defects that could not be aligned were treated with antibiotic bone cement filling in the emergency surgery. In the second stage surgery, bone cement was removed and transfer of rib cartilage graft was performed to reconstruct the digit joint defect. According to a 1∶1 3D printed hand templates, rib cartilage grafts were crafted to the shape of digit joints, and then spliced together the digit joints and bone defects for fixation. Follow-up X-ray examinations were taken and assessment of the healing status of rib and fractures of phalangeal and metacarpophalangeal bones were carried out according to the Paley fracture healing score. At the outpatient follow-up, assessment of transferred joint movement and evaluation of upper limb function were conducted according to the Evaluation Trial Standards of Upper Limb Partial Functional of Hand Surgery of Chinese Medical Association. Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) pain scores were evaluated from the affected digits and donor sites.Results:After reconstructive surgery, all 7 patients had primary healing of the wounds of hand. One patient had fat liquefaction at the donor site, and the rest had primary donor site healing. One patient received further surgery for extensor tendon repair after rib cartilage grafting due to the digital extensor tendon injury. All 7 patients were included in postoperative follow-up for 6-11 months, with an average of 9 months. All patients had excellent fracture healing according to the Paley fracture healing score. At the final follow-up, the extension and flexion of the digit joints were found at 40°-80° (average 56.2°) for proximal interphalangeal joints (4 patients), and 10° in extension and 85° in flexion for metacarpophalangeal joint (1 patient). The range of motion of the thumb interphalangeal joint (2 patients) was 20°-35° (average 27.5°). Hand function was assessed according to Evaluation Trial Standards of Upper Limb Partial Functional of Hand Surgery of Chinese Medical Association and it was found that 3 patients were in excellent, 3 in good and 1 in fair.Conclusion:This study focused on the treatment of traumatic digit joint defects by transfer of individually crafted rib cartilages in reconstruction of the defected digit joint. It significantly improves the appearance and function of the defected digit joints, especially suitable for the irregular defects of phalangeal bones.

Objective:To investigate the potential mechanism of electroacupuncture(EA)at bilateral Fengchi(GB20)in treating cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury and to provide a scientific basis for future experimental research and clinical applications. Methods:Forty male specific-pathogen-free Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into four groups:a normal group,a normal with EA group,a model group,and a model with EA group,with 10 rats in each group.The normal group received no intervention.The normal with EA group received EA at bilateral Fengchi(GB20).The model group underwent middle cerebral artery occlusion(MCAO)using the suture.The model with EA group underwent MCAO and received EA at bilateral Fengchi(GB20).Cerebral blood flow was monitored using a laser Doppler cerebral blood flow meter.Neurologic damage was assessed using the neurologic deficit score,and motor ability was observed using the CatWalk gait system.The expression of glial fibrillary acidic protein(GFAP)and neuronal nuclei(NeuN)protein,the neuron markers,was detected by Western blotting.The protein expression levels of GFAP and NeuN,as well as the number of positive cells in the motor cortex,were detected using immunofluorescence. Results:Compared to the normal group,the cerebral blood flow values in the model group and the model with EA group decreased by more than 50%during the modeling process(P<0.01)and returned to pre-modeling levels after reperfusion(P>0.05).The neurologic deficit score increased(P<0.05),the average motor velocity decreased(P<0.05),GFAP protein expression and the number of positive cells in the motor cortex increased(P<0.05),and the NeuN protein expression and the number of positive cells decreased(P<0.05)in the model group.Compared to the model group,the neurologic deficit score decreased(P<0.05),the average motor velocity accelerated(P<0.05),GFAP and NeuN protein expression and the number of positive cells in the motor cortex increased(P<0.01)in the model with EA group. Conclusion:EA at bilateral Fengchi(GB20)can reduce neuronal loss and increase GFAP and NeuN protein expression in the motor cortex of rats after ischemia-reperfusion,improve the motor function after ischemic stroke,and accelerate the recovery of balance and stability of the affected limbs.

Objective:To investigate the therapeutic efficacy of spleen-invigorating, dampness-removing and stasis-dissolving formula (SDSF) combined with endocrinotherapy for metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer (mHSPC).Methods:A retrospective case control study was conducted. The clinical data of 193 mHSPC patients treated at First Teaching Hospital of Tianjin University of Traditional Chinese Medicine, the Second Hospital of Tianjin Medical University, and Tianjin First Central Hospital from January 2018 to March 2021 were retrospectively analyzed. All patients were treated with continuous endocrinotherapy and they were divided into the combination therapy group (82 cases) and the monotherapy group (94 cases) based on whether they received SDSF treatment or not. Prostate specific antigen (PSA), serum testosterone, blood lipids (triglyceride, total cholesterol), fasting blood glucose, and international prostate symptoms score (I-PSS) and Karnofsky score were compared between the 2 groups. Kaplan-Meier method was used to analyze the progression-free survival (PFS), and log-rank test was performed. The Cox proportional risk model was used to make univariate analysis and multivariate analysis on the influencing factors of PFS.Results:A total of 176 mHSPC patients were finally enrolled and the age was 67±11 years. There were no statistically significant differences in terms of PSA, serum testosterone, triglyceride, total cholesterol and fasting blood glucose, I-PSS score and Karnofsky score between the two groups (all P > 0.05). A total of 91 mHSPC patients developed metastatic castration resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC), including the combination therapy group (40 cases) and the monotherapy group (51 cases), and 9 patients died because of the progression to mCRPC. The median PFS time of all patients was 19 months, that was 17.9 months in the monotherapy group and 20.4 months in the combination therapy group; and the difference was statistically significant between the 2 groups ( P = 0.001). Multivariate Cox regression analysis results showed that combination therapy with SDSF and the lowest testosterone level were independent influencing factors of PFS ( P = 0.001). The total cholesterol at 6-, 9-, 12-month in the combination therapy group was lower than that in the monotherapy group (all P < 0.05), triglyceride at 3-, 6-, 9-, 12-month in the combination therapy group was lower than that in the monotherapy group (all P < 0.05); and the differences in fasting blood glucose after treatment at different time points were not statistically significant between the 2 groups (all P > 0.05); I-PSS score at 9-, 12-month in the monotherapy group was lower than that in the monotherapy group (both P < 0.05). Conclusions:The combination of SDSF with endocrinotherapy can delay the progression of mHSPC, improve treatment-related complications, and enhance patients' quality of life.

Narrative medicine,as an interdisciplinary field at the intersection of humanistic education and medical edu-cation,is an effective means of implementing medical humanities.It not only fosters deeper empathy and communication between doctors and patients but also plays an important role in clinical practice and the cultivation of humanistic qualities.This study starts from the core connotation of integrating narrative medicine into the doctor-patient relationship,focusing on the value logic of narrative medicine empowering humanistic care.Utilizing a typical case from a hospital in Tianjin that practices humanistic care based on narrative medicine,the study examines the organizational structure,practical activities,humanistic care initiatives,health education,supportive measures,and outcomes of the narrative medicine healthcare management team.The conclusion drawn is that exploring mechanisms for medical communication and the cultivation of humanistic qualities can facilitate the mutual transformation of narrative and empathy skills,the organic combination of narrative medicine with evidence-based medicine,and the complementary relationship between clinical medicine and humanistic education.This approach aims to alleviate the increas-ingly prominent conflicts between doctors and patients,bridge the gap between humanity and technology,and promote the imple-mentation of medical humanities in clinical settings.

The incidence of lower extremity varicose veins is higher in the disease of venous system,and surgical treatment is the main treatment method of lower extremity varicose veins.With the advancement of technique and the development of minimally invasive concept,endovenous thermal ablation(EVTA)has become the first choice in the guidance of the treatment of lower extremity varicose veins depended on its series of advantages include small trauma,rapid recovery after surgery,low incidence of complication and high closure rate.At present,EVTA mainly includes intracavitary radiofrequency ablation(RFA),endovenous laser ablation(EVLA)and endovenous microwave ablation(EMA),which takes heat on target vessel through different thermal ablation equipment,and uses thermal energy to destruct the endothelial cells of blood vessel and collagen fibers in the vascular wall.Then,the contracted lumen forms the fibrous strands,thus reaches the aim that closes target vessel.Different EVTA surgical mode has different mechanism of action,therapeutic effect and incidence of complication,as well as the application range.This paper summarized the routinely surgical mode of EVTA and the clinical application of that in the past 5 years,which can provide references for reasonable choosing the mode of thermal ablation and the equipment,and can provide helps for preventing the complication of thermal injury.

Lower cervical fracture and dislocation combined with facet interlocking is an acute spinal cord injury caused by flexion-distraction and rotational force. It can result in various degrees of quadriplegia and urinary and defecation disorders, with a high rate of disability, most of which requires surgical treatment. Surgical treatment options for lower cervical fracture and dislocation combined with facet interlocking include anterior approach, posterior approach and combined surgical approach. However, the optimal treatment option remains to be determined. The anterior approach, with the advantages of simple access, smaller trauma, fewer complications, and good sagittal balance, is currently the preferred treatment option for lower cervical fracture and dislocation combined with facet interlocking. Many methods of surgical repositioning and fixation are available in anterior approach, but the choice of surgical repositioning and fixation options in anterior approach is still controversial among scholars. For this purpose, the authors reviewed the progress of researches on anterior surgical approach for lower cervical fracture and dislocation combined with facet interlocking, aiming to provide a reference for its clinical treatment.
