Objective: To analyze the developmental trajectories of clustered health risk behaviors and their association with self-esteem and lonelinesss among junior high school students, so as to provide a reference for formulating comprehensive prevention and control measures of health risk behaviors among adolescents. Methods: In October 2023, 1 165 first year junior high school students from two schools of Jishou City in Hunan Province were selected by convenient sampling method for three follow up surveys (T1:October 2023; T2:April 2024; T3:October 2024). The Adolescent Health Risk Behavior Questionnaire, Rosenberg Self esteem Scale and Loneliness Scale were used to assess health risk behaviors, self esteem and loneliness, respectively. Latent growth curve modeling and latent growth mixture modeling were applied to analyze the developmental trajectories of clustered health risk behaviors among junior high school students. Logistic regression was used to analyze the association of the developmental trajectories of clustered health risk behaviors with self esteem and loneliness among junior high school students. Results: The overall developmental trajectories among junior high school students showed a declining trend (intercept=0.15, slope=-1.65, both P <0.05), with three heterogeneous categories:low risk improvement group ( n =862, 74.0%), moderate risk stable group ( n =260, 22.3%), and high risk deterioration group ( n =43, 3.7%). After adjusting the status of the left behind individuals，using the low risk improvement group as the reference category in multinomial Logistic regression analysis, results indicated that higher loneliness scores among junior high school students increased the risks of belonging to the moderate risk stable group ( OR=1.02, 95%CI =1.00- 1.04 ) and the high risk deterioration group ( OR=1.04, 95%CI =1.00-1.08), while higher self esteem scores reduced the risks of belonging to the moderate risk stable group ( OR=0.93, 95%CI =0.91-0.96) and the high risk deterioration group ( OR=0.88, 95%CI =0.83-0.94) (all P <0.05). Conclusions The overall trend of clustered health risk behaviors among junior high school students gradually improves, and the self esteem and loneliness are significant correlative factors. Targeted intervention measures should be developed for the junior high school students, with a focus on enhancing their self esteem and alleviating loneliness.

Objective To analyze the efficacy, safety, and learning curve of the three-lobe holmium laser enucleation of the prostate(HoLEP)in the treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia(BPH)in a county-level hospital.Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of 65 BPH patients who underwent the three-lobe HoLEP performed by a single surgeon at the Department of Urology, Yining County People's Hospital, during Dec.2023 and Jun.2024.The enucleation efficiency was calculated by dividing the weight of the enucleated prostatic tissue by the enucleation time.A case scatter diagram of enucleation efficiency was plotted according to the chronological order of the operations, and the learning curve was analyzed after fitting.Based on the inflection points of the learning curve, the learning process was divided into the initial learning, mastery, and proficiency phases.The basic clinical data, perioperative indicators, postoperative complications, and follow-up indicators were compared among the different learning phases.Results All 65 procedures were successfully completed.Marked by the enucleation efficiency reaching a plateau, cases 1-20 were defined as the initial learning phase, cases 21-40 as the mastery phase, and cases 41 onwards as the proficiency phase.The prostate volume in the proficiency phase was significantly larger than that in the initial learning and mastery phases(both P＜0.05).There were no statistically significant differences in other baseline characteristics among the three groups(all P＞0.05).The operation time [(105.50±19.12)min vs.(85.25±26.92)min vs.(69.00±23.58)min] and enucleation time [(76.90±14.19)min vs.(63.70±22.24)min vs.(48.80±20.48)min] showed a decreasing trend across the three groups(all P＜0.05).The enucleation efficiency in both the mastery and proficiency phases was significantly higher than that in the initial learning phase [(1.16±0.44)g/min vs.(0.85 ±0.25)g/min, P＜0.05;(1.36±0.49)g/min vs.(0.85±0.25)g/min, P＜0.05].The enucleation efficiency in the proficiency phase was slightly higher than that in the mastery phase, but the difference was not statistically significant(P= 0.389).There was no significant difference in the incidence of perioperative complications among the three groups(all P＞0.05).At the 6-month follow-up, the international prostate symptom score(IPSS), post-void residual(PVR), and maximum urinary flow(Qmax)were significantly improved compared to preoperative values in all three groups(all P＜0.05);however, no significant differences were observed among the three groups(all P＞0.05).Conclusion The three-lobe HoLEP for the treatment of BPH is safe and effective in a county-level hospital setting.Surgeons with some experience in endoscopic surgery can preliminarily master this technique after a learning period of approximately 20 procedures.

BackgroundThe mental health issues of medical staff have received increasing attention. Previous studies have mainly focused on the epidemiological characteristics and influencing factors， but there is a lack of sufficient understanding of the heterogeneity characteristics of the depression-anxiety symptoms network among medical staff. ObjectiveTo compare the differences in the depression-anxiety symptoms network between medical staff and community residents， so as to provide references for the promotion of the mental health of medical staff. MethodsFrom June 1， 2022 to December 31， 2024， a stratified random sampling method was used to recruit 1 959 medical staff from public hospitals and community health centers in 9 townships （industrial parks） of Dongguan City， Guangdong Province， as well as 2 412 community residents in this area， were selected as the research subjects. The general situation questionnaire， Patients' Health Questionnaire Depression Scale-9 item （PHQ-9）， and the Generalized Anxiety Disorder Scale-7 item （GAD-7） were used for investigation. The network visualization was conducted using the qgraph package of R 4.0.0. The centrality indicators of the network were calculated using the networktools package. The reliability of the network structure was evaluated using the bootnet package. The differences in the depression-anxiety symptoms network between medical staff and community residents were compared using the NetworkComparisionTest package. ResultsA total of 1 792 medical staff and 2 110 community residents completed the survey. The numbers of medical staff with mild， moderate and severe depressive symptoms were 381 （21.26%）， 217 （12.11%） and 169 （9.43%）， respectively， while the numbers of community residents were 322 （15.26%）， 98 （4.64%） and 66 （3.13%）， respectively. The numbers of medical staff with mild， moderate and severe anxiety symptoms were 411 （22.94%）， 126 （7.03%） and 93 （5.19%）， respectively， while the numbers of community residents were 320 （15.17%）， 73 （3.46%） and 18 （0.85%）， respectively. The comparison of the detection rates of depressive symptoms and anxiety symptoms between the two groups showed statistically significant differences （χ²=152.012， 205.953， P<0.01）. The network analysis results showed that the core symptom clusters of medical staff were "uncontrollable worry" "psychomotor retardation" "inability to relax"， and "depression"， while those of community residents were "uncontrollable worry" "inability to relax" "inferiority complex"， and "depression". There was a statistically significant difference in the network structure between the two groups （M=0.275， P<0.05）， and the overall connection strength of medical staff was lower than that of community residents （7.523 vs. 7.950， S=0.426， P<0.05）. ConclusionThe detection rates of depression and anxiety symptoms among medical staff were higher than those among community residents. The depression-anxiety symptoms network of medical staff was more concentrated， and the core symptoms were more prominent.［Funded by Social Development and Technology Project of Dongguan City （number， 20221800902552）］

ObjectiveTo systematically review the effect of dual-task training (DTT) on mobility and balance in stroke patients. MethodsCNKI, Wanfang Data, VIP, PubMed, Web of Science, Embase and Cochrane Library were searched for randomized controlled trials (RCT) on DTT in stroke rehabilitation from inception to June, 2025. The quality of the included studies was assessed using the Cochrane Risk of Bias Tool and the PEDro scale. Meta-analysis was performed using RevMan 5.4. ResultsA total of eleven RCT involving 517 stroke patients were included, and the scores of PEDro scale were four to eight. DTT was more effective on the score of Fugl-Meyer Assessment-Lower Extremity (MD = 3.70, 95%CI 1.88 to 5.53, P < 0.001) and Berg Balance Scale (BBS) (MD = 3.04, 95%CI 1.58 to 4.49, P < 0.001), fall incidence (OR = 0.32, 95%CI 0.11 to 0.87, P = 0.025), gait speed under a single-task condition (MD = 0.08, 95%CI 0.03 to 0.12, P = 0.002), gait speed under a dual-task condition (MD = 0.13, 95%CI 0.10 to 0.16, P < 0.001), Timed Up and Go Test time (MD = -2.78, 95%CI -3.85 to -1.72, P < 0.001), and score of modified Barthel Index (MD = 4.77, 95%CI 1.88 to 7.66, P = 0.001). Subgroup analysis indicated that motor-motor DTT was more effective than cognitive-motor DTT on BBS scores and single-task gait speed. ConclusionsDTT can improve mobility and balance in stroke patients, especially with motor-motor tasks.

OBJECTIVE To explore the effect and potential mechanism of 717 Jiedu decoction in ameliorating local tissue injury induced by Gloydius brevicaudus venom via regulating macrophage phenotype transformation.METHODS Rat blank-serum and drug-containing serum were prepared by intragastric administration of normal saline， tail-vein injection of anti- G. brevicaudus venom serum （0.6 mL per rat）， and intragastric administration of 717 Jiedu decoction at doses of 0.495， 0.99 and 1.98 g/kg （calculated as crude drug）. M0-type macrophages derived from human leukemia monocytic THP-1 cells induced and differentiated by PMA were divided into normal control group， model group， positive control group， and low-， medium- and high-concentration 717 Jiedu decoction drug-containing serum groups. Except for the normal control group， all other groups were treated with 10 μg/mL G. brevicaudus venom working solution and 10% blank or drug-containing serum. After the cultivation period， the cellular ultrastructural changes in each group were observed； the proportions of M1- and M2-type macrophages， as well as the mRNA and protein expression of macrophage phenotype transformation and hypoxia-inducible factor-1α （HIF-1α） were detected.RESULTS Compared with the normal control group， cells in the model group presented ultrastructural injuries including mitochondrial swelling， cristae rupture and cytoplasmic vacuolization. The proportion of M1-type macrophages and the mRNA and protein expression levels of related phenotype transformation markers [inducible nitric oxide synthase， tumor necrosis factor-α， interleukin-6 （IL-6）， IL-1β] and HIF-1α were significantly increased （ P ＜0.05），whereas the proportion of M2-type macrophages and the mRNA and protein expression levels of related phenotype transformation markers （arginase-1， IL-10， mannose receptor C type 1 and chitinase-3-like protein 1） were significantly decreased （ P ＜0.05）. Compared with the model group， cellular ultrastructural injuries were obviously alleviated， and the above-mentioned indexes were significantly reversed in the high-concentration 717 Jiedu decoction drug-containing serum group （ P ＜0.05）.CONCLUSIONS717 Jiedu decoction can exert anti-inflammatory and tissue-repairing effects by regulating the balance of M1-， M2-type macrophages phenotype transformation and repairing cellular ultrastructural damage. Its mechanism may be related to inhibiting the excessive activation of the HIF-1α pathway.

Objective:To review the literature on improving patients′medical experience, analyze the current research status in this field, and provide references for enhancing patients′medical experience.Methods:A search was conducted for studies related to improving patients′medical experience published from January 2015 to November 2024 in eight databases, including CNKI and Web of Science. Using software CiteSpace 6.4.R1 and VOSviewer 1.6.19 to analyze publication trends, keyword clustering, existing problems in the process of improving patients′medical experience, and the measures taken.Results:6 507 articles were included, of which 4 452 were in English (68.4%) and 2 055 were in Chinese (31.6%). The annual number of publications showed a nearly linear growth trend ( R2 = 0.983 9). The clustering analysis results indicated that domestic and international research mainly focused on patient-centered diagnostic and treatment systems, behaviors, services, and environments. Existing studies revealed that there were still problems such as long waiting times for appointments and consultations (292 articles), uneven distribution of medical resources (198 articles), and poor doctor-patient communication (155 articles). To improve patients′medical experience, the following intervention measures were proposed: accelerating the medical reform process and strengthening government responsibilities (169 articles); enhancing service concepts and innovating service models (363 articles); optimizing the consultation process and simplifying medical procedures (221 articles); improving the consultation environment and optimizing the facilities in the consultation area (181 articles); and integrating technological advantages to cover the entire medical process (346 articles). Conclusions:Research on improving patients' medical experience was increasingly attracting the attention of more and more scholars. Issues such as low service efficiency, unbalanced resource allocation, and poor doctor-patient communication need to be given special attention. In the future, it is recommended to enhance the experience of patients′ medical experience by strengthening policy and institutional guarantees, accelerating the construction of information technology, improving doctor-patient communication skills and humanistic care, and enhancing the capacity of primary medical services.

Objective:This study evaluated the accuracy of internal mammary sentinel lymph node biopsy(IM-SLNB)in patients with early-st-age breast cancer after receiving neoadjuvant therapy(NAT).It explored the benefits of IM-SLNB in guiding cancer staging,evaluating progn-osis,and optimizing adjuvant treatment strategies.Methods:A retrospective study was conducted to collect clinical data of patients who re-ceived IM-SLNB following NAT in Shandong Cancer Hospital and Institute from October 2013 to November 2023.We analyzed the influence of clinicopathological characteristics on internal mammary lymph node(IMLN)metastasis and assessed the prognostic significance of IMLN me-tastasis following NAT.Results:The study included 132 breast cancer patients who underwent IM-SLNB following NAT.The metastasis rates of axillary lymph nodes(ALN)and internal mammary lymph nodes(IMLN)were 90.9%(120/132)and 9.1%(12/132),respectively.The perce-ntages of patients in the following groups were as follows:ALN-positive/IMLN-positive(8.3%,11/132),ALN-positive/IMLN-negative(43.1%,57/132),ALN-negative/IMLN-positive(0.7%,1/132),and ALN-negative/IMLN-negative(47.7%,63/132).The detection rate of internal mam-mary sentinel lymph nodes(IM-SLN)after NAT was 98.5%(132/134);two patients could not undergo IM-SLNB owing to surgical difficulties.Among the 12 cases of IMLN metastasis,6 patients experienced a change in postoperative pathological staging:2 shifted from stage ⅢA toⅢC,2 from stage ⅡB to ⅢC,1 from stage ⅡA to ⅢA,and 1 from stage ⅡA to ⅢC.IMLN metastasis was determined to be an independ-ent risk factor for disease-free survival(DFS)and overall survival(OS)(P<0.05).Patients with IMLN metastasis demonstrated significantly lower DFS and OS than those without IMLN metastasis(P<0.05).Conclusions:The pathological status of both ALN and IMLN should be con-sidered in the axillary pathological response after NAT.Patients with detectable IMLN during surgery after NAT should undergo IM-SLNB to ensure comprehensive lymph node staging.The status of IMLN metastasis following NAT serves as an independent prognostic factor.

[Purpose]To analyze the incidence trend and age,period,cohort effects of brain and other central nervous system tumors(brain tumor)in Qidong City of Jiangsu Province from 1972 to 2021.[Methods]The incidence data of brain tumor from 1972 to 2021 were collected from the Qidong cancer registry database.The crude incidence rate(CR),age-standardized rate by Chi-nese standard population(ASRC),age-standardized rate by world standard population(ASRW)and average annual percentage change(AAPC)were calculated.The age-period-cohort(APC)model was used to analyze the age,period,and cohort effects of brain tumor incidence in Qidong City from 1972 to 2021.[Results]A total of 2 801 cases of brain tumor occurred in Qidong City from 1972 to 2021,including 1 475 male cases and 1 326 female cases.From 1972-1976 to 2017-2021,the CR increased from 1.81/10 5 to 9.28/10 5,the ASRC increased from 2.07/10 5 to 4.96/10 5,and ASRW increased from 2.00/105 to 4.98/105.From 1972 to 2021 the AAPC of CR,ASRC and ASRW were 3.97％(3.53％for male and 4.37％for female),2.02％(1.66％for male and 2.24％for female)and 2.06％(1.63％for male and 2.24％for female)(all P＜0.001).The Wald's Chi-square test of the APC model showed that there were significant differences in the trends of age,period and birth cohort effect of brain tumor risk(all P＜0.05).The age effect showed that the incidence of brain tumor increased with age,starting from the age group of 45～49 years old and reaching a peak of 25.84/10 5 in age group of 75～79 years old(95％CI:21.17/10 5～31.53/10 5).The period ef-fect showed that the risk of recent period was higher than that in the early period using 1992-1996 period as the reference,reaching the highest in 2012-2016(RR=1.64,95％CI:1.38～1.95).The birth cohort effect showed that the highest risk was in 2017-2021 births cohort(RR=11.17,95％CI:4.26～29.26)using 1952-1956 birth cohort as the reference.[Conclusion]The incidence of brain tumor in Qidong City has been rising;and age,period and cohort are the main influencing factors,suggesting that the middle-aged and elderly population should be the focus of brain tumor prevention and control.

Objective To investigate the short-term efficacy of arthroscopic total internal suture combined with platelet-rich plasma(PRP)in the treatment of lateral meniscal popliteal hiatus area injuries.Methods Forty-eight patients diagnosed with lateral meniscal popliteal hiatus area injuries in our hospital from January 2020 to December 2022 were selected and divided into Fast-Fix total internal suture group(FF group,n=23)and Fast-Fix total internal suture combined with PRP group(PRP group,n=25)according to treatment methods.The positive rate of McMurray test at 6 and 12 months after surgery,the preoperative and postoperative visual analogue scale(VAS)of pain,the International Knee Documentation Committee(IKDC)scores,the Lysholm Knee Function Scores,and the Knee Society Scores(KSS)were compared between the two groups.Results No adverse events such as vascular and nerve injury,fever and infection occurred in both groups.There was no significant difference between the two groups in the positive rates of McMurray test at 6 and 12 months(χ2=0.880,P=0.348;Fisher's exact test,P=0.479).In the PRP group,25 cases were followed up for11-14 months,with an average of(12.2±0.8)months;in the FF group,23 cases were followed up for11-14 months,with an average of(12.8±0.8)months.The VAS scores at 6 months and 12 months after surgery were significantly lower than those before surgery in both groups(all P=0.000).The VAS scores of the PRP group at 6 and 12 months after surgery were significantly lower than those of the FF group(P<0.05).Both groups showed significant improvements in IKDC,Lysholm,and KSS scores at 6 and 12 months after surgery compared to preoperative levels(all P=0.000).The IKDC,Lysholm,and KSS scores of the PRP group at 6 and 12 months after surgery were significantly higher than those of the FF group(P<0.05).Conclusion Compared to Fast-Fix total internal suture alone,PRP joint cavity adjuvant therapy based on Fast-Fix total internal suture surgery could reduce the postoperative pain of patients,and promote the functional recovery of the knee joint,which is more recommended in clinical practice.

Obstructive sleep apnea（OSA）is a common childhood upper airway obstructive disease that disrupts normal ventilation and sleep，causing serious damage to children's physical and mental health.In recent years，the incidence of OSA has risen，drawing social concern.While polysomnography（PSG）is the "gold standard" for diagnosing OSA in children，its clinical application has limitations due to its complexity and time-consuming nature.Impulse oscillometry（IOS）is a new pulmonary function testing technique that offers a quick and easy measurement of airway resistance，reflecting the state of upper airway resistance.It can aid in the screening and evaluation of this disease.This article reviews the progress of IOS in early screening and assessment of OSA in children，aiming to offer new approaches for evaluating and managing OSA.
