ObjectiveThis paper aims to explore the risk factors for chronic atrophic gastritis （CAG） with turbidity toxin accumulation syndrome and establish a prediction model. MethodsClinical data of 180 patients with CAG who participated in the "clinical study of Xianglian Huazhuo Particles blocking CAG cancer transformation" of Hebei Sheng Zhong Yi Yuan from July 2021 to March 2022 were collected. After confounding factors were controlled by propensity score matching， patients were divided into a training set （namely dev） and a validation set （namely vad） in a seven to three ratio. The risk factors for CAG with turbidity toxin accumulation syndrome in the training set were investigated by using univariate Logistic regression analysis and least absolute shrinkage and selection operator （namely Lasso） regression algorithms. Subsequently， a model， named model 1se， was developed by using the training set data to predict the risk factors for CAG with turbidity toxin accumulation syndrome. The accuracy of the prediction model was assessed by using various methods， including the receiver operating characteristic （ROC） curve， Hosmer-Lemeshow test （H-L）， calibration plot， and decision curve analysis （DCA）. ResultsAge， body mass index （BMI）， family history of cancer， job and life satisfaction， yellow and greasy fur with slippery pulse， and heavy body sensation were independent risk factors of the model. The prediction model showed excellent predictive value for both the training and validation sets. ConclusionThe established prediction model for CAG with turbidity toxin accumulation syndrome has high discrimination and excellent calibration， which could provide an excellent clinical basis for disease diagnosis and individualized treatment of patients.

BackgroundBipolar disorder is a severe mental disorder characterized by alternating episodes of mania and depression. It has a high recurrence rate and a high rate of disability. Elderly patients often suffer from more severe cognitive impairment due to neurodegenerative changes. The clinical intervention for bipolar disorder mainly relies on drug treatment， but drugs have limited effects on improving cognitive function， and some drugs may even aggravate cognitive impairment. Aerobic exercise， as a non-drug intervention method， has shown positive effects in improving cognitive function in patients with mental disorders. However， there are still insufficient studies on elderly patients with bipolar disorder. ObjectiveTo explore the impact of aerobic exercise on the cognitive function of elderly patients with bipolar disorder， so as to provide references for the formulation of strategies to improve the cognitive function of this population. MethodsA randomized controlled trial was conducted. A total of 60 elderly patients who were hospitalized at the Third People's Hospital of Lanzhou from January 2024 to March 2025 and met the diagnostic criteria for bipolar disorder as defined in the International Classification of Diseases，tenth edition （ICD-10） were selected. They were divided into the study group and the control group， with 30 cases in each group， based on the random number table method. Both groups were given quetiapine fumarate tablets and magnesium valproate sustained-release tablets. The study group additionally received aerobic exercise （including slow walking， doing exercises， and running）， three times a week， for 30 minutes each time. At the baseline and at the end of the 3^rd， 6^th， 9^th， and 12^th week of the intervention， the Hamilton Depression Scale -24 item （HAMD-24）， the Young Manic Rating Scale （YMRS）， the Montreal Cognitive Assessment （MoCA）， and Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale Revised in China （WMS-RC） were used for assessment. ResultsThe time effect of the HAMD-24 score was statistically significant （Wald χ²=124.564， P<0.01）. The time effect of the YMRS score was also statistically significant （Wald χ²=145.608， P<0.01）， and the interaction effect between time and group was statistically significant （Wald χ²=14.968， P<0.05）. At the 3^rd， 9^th， and 12^th week of the intervention， the YMRS score of the study group was lower than that of the control group in the same period， and the differences were statistically significant （P<0.05）. The time effect and group effect of the MoCA score were both statistically significant （F=99.347， 16.623， P<0.01）. The time effect， group effect， and interaction effect between time and group of the WMS-RC memory quotient were all statistically significant （F=64.678， 10.197， 12.472， P<0.01）. At the 6^th， 9^th， and 12^th weeks of the intervention， the MoCA score and WMS-RC memory quotient of the study group were higher than those of the control group， and the differences were statistically significant （P<0.05）. ConclusionAerobic exercise may help improve the manic symptoms and cognitive functions （especially memory ability） of elderly patients with bipolar disorder. ［Funded by Science and Technology Project of Gansu Province （number， 24JRRA775）； Science and Technology Project of Lanzhou City（number， 2022-5-155）］

ObjectiveTo evaluate the therapeutic effect and mechanism of tendon-management and patella-movement therapeutic manipulation in the treatment of patellofemoral arthritis based on imaging evaluation. MethodsTotally 126 patients with patellofemoral arthritis were recruited and divided into a treatment group and a control group according to a randomised numerical table. The control group received routine sodium hyaluronate injection once a week for a total of 5 times； the treatment group received tendon-management and patella-movement therapeutic manipulation three times a week for four weeks. We compared the Western Ontario and McMaster University osteoarthritis index score （WOMAC）， visual analogue scale （VAS）， imaging indicators including patellar external displacement distance， patellofemoral fit angle， lateral patellofemoral angle， and patellofemoral index， and overall effectiveness evaluation between the two groups before and one week after treatment. ResultsThe total effective rate of the treatment group （45/54， 83.33%） was significantly higher than that of the control group （36/54， 66.67%，P＜0.05）. One week after the end of treatment， the VAS scores and WOMAC scores of both groups were lower than those before treatment in the same group （P＜0.01）， and the patellofemoral index and patellofemoral fit angle of the treatment group decreased compared with that of the control group （P＜0.05）. Compared with the pre-treatment， the distance of patellar external displacement， patellofemoral index， and patellofemoral fit angle decreased in the treatment group 1 week after the end of treatment， and the patellofemoral fit angle decreased in the control group （P＜0.05）. ConclusionThe therapeutic manipulation of tendon-management and patella-movement can correct the degree of patellar external displacement， alleviate joint pain symptoms， improve joint function， and achieve the goal of treating patellofemoral arthritis.

Objective: To investigate the efficacy and safety of intelligent temperature-pressure-controlled flexible ureteroscopy combined with negative-pressure suction sheath lithotripsy in the treatment of upper urinary tract stones ≤2.5 cm. Methods: The clinical data of 225 patients with ≤2.5 cm upper urinary tract stones treated with this surgical method in our department during Aug. 2023 and Jul. 2024 were retrospectively analyzed. The patients were divided into the dual-control group (n=36) and conventional group (n=189) according to whether or not the intelligent temperature and pressure control device was used during operation. In the dual-control group，the intraoperative temperature and pressure in the renal pelvis were monitored and controlled in real time by the temperature and pressure sensors distributed at the end of the ureteral soft lens. The perioperative parameters，stone-removal rate，complication rate and renal function were compared between the two groups. Results: All operations were successfully completed in both groups. The postoperative procalcitonin (PCT) level [(22.75±5.85) ng/L vs. (29.08±6.60) ng/L，P=0.001]，difference in the white blood cell (WBC) level [(0.24±2.12)×10 cells/L vs. (1.19±2.17)×10 cells/L，P=0.016]，incidence of fever (2.8% vs. 16.9%，P=0.028) and overall complication rate (5.6% vs. 19.6%，P=0.042) were significantly lower in the dual-control group than in the conventional group，while the stone-clearance rate was slightly higher (88.9% vs. 82.5%，P=0.346)，with no significant difference. Conclusion: For upper urinary tract stones ≤2.5 cm，intelligent temperature-pressure-controlled ureteroscopy combined with negative-pressure suction sheath lithotripsy has a satisfactory stone-removal rate and a low rate of complications，which is worthy of clinical promotion.

Objective To provide suggestions for the clinical efficacy evaluation method of manual therapy for knee osteoarthritis(KOA)by analyzing the current status of the use of outcome indicators in randomized controlled trials(RCTs)of manual therapy for KOA.Methods RCTs about manual treatment of KOA were retrieved from CNKI,Wanfang Data,VIP,SinoMed,PubMed,Cochrane Library,Scopus and Web of Science from March 2014 to March 2024.Two researchers screened literature,extracted literature features,analyzed the RCT indicator domain,measurement tools,and measurement time points for manual treatment of KOA.Results A total of 134 articles were included,with a sample size of 17 659.A total of 138 outcome indicators were used to classify the outcome indicators:64 symptoms and signs(46.4%),54 physical and chemical examinations(39.1%),11 quality of life(8.0%),2 psychological status indicators(1.4%),2 safety indicators(1.4%),2 muscle strength testing indicators(1.4%)and 3 other indicators(2.2%).Among 134 articles,there were a total of 36 measurement time points,with a research time span of 1 hour to 1 year after treatment;91 articles(67.9%)used"clinical efficacy"as the outcome measure;27 articles(20.1%)were evaluated for safety and reported adverse events.Conclusion The RCT outcome indicators of manual therapy for KOA lack representativeness,integrality,objectivity and specificity.The rigorism of the outcome indicators should be improved from the aspects of representativeness,integrality,objectivity and specificity,in order to achieve a complete evaluation effect on disease research.

Objective:To explore the association between different feeding methods during the first six months after birth and the physical growth of children aged 3 to 5 years.Methods:Data were from the "Taicang and Wuqiang mother-child cohort study"(TAWS) in China. Children were enrolled at birth between November 2016 and September 2020 and followed up at 1, 2, 3, 6, 8, 12, 18, and 24 months, as well as at ages 3 to 5 years. Based on feeding methods within six months of age, children were categorized into an "exclusive breastfeeding group" and a "formula-feeding group". Birth-related information and feeding practices between 8 and 24 months were collected, alongside dietary habits, physical activity, and illness during preschool years. Height and weight of preschool children were measured to calculate height-for-age Z-score (HAZ), weight-for-age Z-score (WAZ), body mass index-for-age Z-score (BAZ), and the rates of stunting, underweight, wasting, overweight, and obesity. After adjusting for demographic factors, birth-related information, feeding practices between 8 to 24 months, preschool dietary habits, physical activity, and health status, multiple linear regression and logistic regression were adopted to analyze the influence of feeding methods within six months of age on the physical growth of children aged 3 to 5 years.Results:A total of 1 233 children were included, comprising 629 boys and 604 girls. The number of children aged 3, 4, and 5 years was 436, 406, and 391, respectively. About 754 children were categorized into the exclusive breastfeeding group and 479 into the formula-feeding group. Children who were introduced to formula milk within six months of age had higher HAZ (0.09±0.99), WAZ (0.24±1.07) and BAZ (0.26±1.11) scores at ages 3 to 5 compared to the exclusive breastfeeding group [HAZ, WAZ, and BAZ were (-0.04±0.92), (0.06±1.02) and (0.11±1.08), respectively]. After adjusting for confounding factors, multiple linear regression analysis showed that the β (95% CI) values for HAZ, WAZ and BAZ in the formula-feeding group were 0.16 (0.06-0.25), 0.17 (0.06-0.29) and 0.15 (0.02-0.27), respectively, compared to the exclusive breastfeeding group. After adjusting for confounding factors, the results of the multivariate logistic regression model indicated that there were no statistically significant differences in the risks of stunting, underweight, wasting, overweight, and obesity during the preschool years between the exclusive breastfeeding group and the formula-feeding group, with OR (95% CI) values of 1.04 (0.41-2.62), 0.99 (0.27-3.57), 1.63 (0.53-4.95), 1.08 (0.66-1.74), and 1.58 (0.70-3.60), respectively. Conclusion:Exclusive breastfeeding within six months of age does not increase the risk of undernutrition (including stunting, underweight or wasting) during preschool years. However, the introduction of formula feeding within six months of age significantly increases the physical growth level of the preschool stage.

Objective To study the syntactic impairment characteristics of wh-question comprehension and expression in Chinese non-fluent aphasic patients.Methods The differences in comprehension and expression be-tween 25 non-fluent aphasic patients and 25 normal subjects were tested in the form of sentence-figure matching and elicitation-repetition to analyze syntactic impairment characteristics related to sentence patterns,question objects,and question words.Results The patients with non-fluent aphasia had impaired comprehension and expression of specific interrogative sentences,and the order of correct comprehension was:(active interrogative sentence,object pseudo-split interrogative sentence)＞(subject pseudo-split interrogative sentence,passive interrogative sentence),and the order of correct expression was:active interrogative sentence＞(pseudo-split interrogative sentence,pas-sive interrogative sentence).Conclusion The pattern of impaired comprehension and expression of wh-question was similar in patients with Chinese non-fluent aphasia.The main influences on syntactic structure included the object of questioning(subject-object)and the type of sentence.Obstacles were more pronounced in sentences with wh-move-ment and non-canonical order.
