AIM: To investigate the association between dyslipidemia and macular hard exudates(HEs)in non-proliferative diabetic retinopathy(NPDR)secondary to type 2 diabetes mellitus(T2DM).METHODS: NPDR patients attending the outpatient ophthalmology clinic from January 2021 to December 2023 were selected and divided into three groups according to the severity of macular HEs. Group A: None or minimal HEs; Group B: Definite HEs; Group C: Prominent HEs. Total cholesterol(TC), triglycerides(TG), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol(LDL-C), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol(HDL-C), lipoprotein(a)[Lp(a)] levels and other lipid-related indicators were routinely measured. The correlation between these indicators and HEs was analyzed.RESULTS:Group A(24 eyes)consisted of 9 males and 15 females with the mean age of 54.71±6.15 y, group B(52 eyes)consisted of 20 males and 32 females with the mean age of 55.08±6.27 y, group C(14 eyes)consisted of 9 males and 5 females with the mean age of 53.93±6.08 y. The concentration of TC, TG, LDL-C and Lp(a)was highest in group C, followed by group B and lowest in group A with statistically significant differences(P<0.001). There were no statistically significant differences between the three groups for fasting plasma glucose(FPG), glycated hemoglobin A1c(HbA1c), creatinine(Cr), and HDL-C(P>0.05). The results of multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that elevated levels of TC, TG, LDL-C, and Lp(a)were associated with the presence of macular HEs. Receiver operating characteristiccurve analysis showed that the area under the curve(AUC)for TC, TG, LDL-C, Lp(a), and their combination in predicting macular HEs in NPDR were 0.785, 0.718, 0.784, 0.742, and 0.911, respectively, with the combined model demonstrating the highest predictive performance.CONCLUSION: Dyslipidemia is closely associated with the development and progression of macular HEs in patients with NPDR and T2DM. The levels of TC, TG, LDL-C, and Lp(a)were correlated with the severity of macular HEs, suggesting that dyslipidemia may be involved in the pathological process of macular HEs formation.

Drawing on recent advances in modern fascial anatomy and biomechanics， this paper interprets the biomechanical implications of yin-yang balance at the physical level from the perspective of holistic force lines. It posits that holistic force lines represent the functional expression of mechanical load transmission and integration within the myofascial network； the channel sinews system and myofascial chains exhibit significant similarities in terms of their distribution， functional attributes， and principles of holistic regulation， and can thus be understood as structural-functional carriers of yin-yang balance. Accordingly， this paper provides a biomechanical interpretation of the yin-yang relationship from four aspects， including interdependence， mutual restriction， dynamic balance through waxing and waning， and mutual transformation， proposing that in a healthy state， the body relies on the continuous integration， distribution， and readjustment of the myofascial tension network to maintain overall coordination， whereas disease states are often associated with compensatory transmission of local tension abnormalities along holistic force lines， the accumulation of imbalances， and structural rigidity. The holistic force-line perspective provides a biomechanical explanatory framework for the theory of yin-yang balance and offers a new theoretical basis for clinical diagnosis and treatment to shift from empirical holistic balancing toward holistic force-line balancing based on posture， function， and tension transmission pathways.

With the widespread adoption of low-dose CT screening and the extensive application of high-resolution CT, the detection rate of sub-centimeter lung nodules has significantly increased. How to scientifically manage these nodules while avoiding overtreatment and diagnostic delays has become an important clinical issue. Among them, lung nodules with a consolidation tumor ratio less than 0.25, dominated by ground-glass shadows, are particularly worthy of attention. The therapeutic challenge for this group is how to achieve precise and complete resection of nodules during surgery while maximizing the preservation of the patient's lung function. The "watershed topography map" is a new technology based on big data and artificial intelligence algorithms. This method uses Dicom data from conventional dose CT scans, combined with microscopic (22-24 levels) capillary network anatomical watershed features, to generate high-precision simulated natural segmentation planes of lung sub-segments through specific textures and forms. This technology forms fluorescent watershed boundaries on the lung surface, which highly fit the actual lung anatomical structure. By analyzing the adjacent relationship between the nodule and the watershed boundary, real-time, visually accurate positioning of the nodule can be achieved. This innovative technology provides a new solution for the intraoperative positioning and resection of lung nodules. This consensus was led by four major domestic societies, jointly with expert teams in related fields, oriented to clinical practical needs, referring to domestic and foreign guidelines and consensus, and finally formed after multiple rounds of consultation, discussion, and voting. The main content covers the theoretical basis of the "watershed topography map" technology, indications, operation procedures, surgical planning details, and postoperative evaluation standards, aiming to provide scientific guidance and exploration directions for clinical peers who are currently or plan to carry out lung nodule resection using the fluorescent microscope watershed analysis method.

BACKGROUND:Stroboscopic visual training can force sensory reweighting to restore the original weights by increasing sensitivity to proprioceptive information,which may be an effective method to improve proprioception. OBJECTIVE:To determine the effects of balance training in three conditions,low frequency,high frequency and normal vision,on ankle proprioception in patients with chronic ankle instability. METHODS:Thirty-six patients with chronic ankle instability recruited from the students of Southwest Medical University were randomly assigned to a low-frequency vision training group,a high-frequency vision training group,and a normal vision training group,with 12 subjects in each group.Subjects in the three groups underwent progressive hop stabilization and balance training,in which the low-frequency vision training group and the high-frequency vision training group wore stroboscopic spectacles during the training,with a stroboscopic frequency of 1.75 and 5 Hz,respectively.The training in each group was performed three times a week for 4 consecutive weeks.Assessments,including ankle proprioception,ankle stability self-assessment and dynamic postural stability,were performed before training and within 1 week after the completion of training. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:There was a significant main effect of time factor in ankle proprioception(P<0.05).Compared with the pre-training period,subjects in the low-frequency vision training group and the high-frequency vision training group showed significant improvement in ankle proprioception after 4 weeks of training(P<0.05);and subjects in the low-frequency vision training group showed a significant improvement in ankle proprioception compared with that of the normal vision training group after 4 weeks of training(P<0.05).There were significant main effects of time factor and group×time interaction in ankle proprioception(P<0.05).Compared with the pre-training period,the ankle stability self-assessment in all three groups was improved after 4 weeks of training(P<0.05).And the ankle stability self-assessment in high-frequency visual training group was higher than that in normal vision training group after 4 weeks of training(P<0.05).Compared with the pre-training period,subjects in the low-frequency vision training group and the high-frequency vision training group showed significant improvements in forward dynamic postural stability,posteromedial dynamic postural stability,and posterolateral dynamic postural stability after 4 weeks of training(P<0.05),while in the normal vision training group,forward dynamic postural stability and posterolateral dynamic postural stability were significantly improved after 4 weeks of training(P≤0.05).To conclude,balance training under stroboscopic visual conditioning improves proprioception,ankle stability self-assessment,and dynamic postural stability in patients with chronic ankle instability regardless of frequency.

Schizophrenia (SZ) stands as a severe psychiatric disorder. This study applied diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) data in conjunction with graph neural networks to distinguish SZ patients from normal controls (NCs) and showcases the superior performance of a graph neural network integrating combined fractional anisotropy and fiber number brain network features, achieving an accuracy of 73.79% in distinguishing SZ patients from NCs. Beyond mere discrimination, our study delved deeper into the advantages of utilizing white matter brain network features for identifying SZ patients through interpretable model analysis and gene expression analysis. These analyses uncovered intricate interrelationships between brain imaging markers and genetic biomarkers, providing novel insights into the neuropathological basis of SZ. In summary, our findings underscore the potential of graph neural networks applied to multimodal DTI data for enhancing SZ detection through an integrated analysis of neuroimaging and genetic features.

Objective To screen genetic susceptibility markers related to serum HBeAg seroconversion by analyzing the association between host genetic susceptibility markers and seroconversion in HBeAg-positive patients with chronic hepatitis B (CHB), thereby providing potential molecular markers for clinical outcomes and prognosis evaluation in HBeAg-positive patients with CHB. Methods HBeAg-positive patients with CHB were recruited from the outpatient department of the Infectious Department, Second Affiliated Hospital of Air Force Military Medical University to establish a follow-up cohort. Based on whether HBeAg seroconversion occurred during follow-up, the subjects were divided into a case group (serum HBeAg with seroconversion) and a control group (serum HBeAg without seroconversion). MassARRAY SNP genotyping technique was used to detect SNPs of human genome DNA extracted from whole blood of the study subjects. Results　Through association analysis between genetic susceptibility marker SNPs and seroconversion of serum HBeAg, it was found that: At the rs101206　8 locus, under the overdominant model, patients carrying the heterozygous GT genotype had a higher likelihood of serum HBeAg seroconversion (OR=1.73, 95%CI: 1.15-2.59, P=0.008); at the rs352140 locus, under the recessive model, patients carrying the TT genotype had a higher likelihood of serum HBeAg seroconversion (OR=1.77, 95%CI: 1.06-2.94, P=0.029); the rs1946518 locus, under the overdominant model, patients carrying the heterozygous GT genotype had a higher likelihood of serum HBeAg seroconversion (OR=1.73, 95%CI: 1.14-2.61, P=0.009); at the rs2306494 locus, under the dominant model, carrying the A allele (GA+AA) was identified as a negative factor for serum HBeAg seroconversion (OR=0.65, 95%CI: 0.42-0.99, P=0.043); at the rs20541 locus, under the recessive model, carrying the AA genotype was identified as a negative factor for serum HBeAg seroconversion (OR=0.31, 95%CI: 0.10-0.92, P=0.019); at the rs1057035 locus, under the dominant model, patients carrying the C allele (CT+CC) had a higher likelihood of serum HBeAg seroconversion (OR=1.78, 95%CI: 1.05-3.03, P=0.034). Therefore, the GT genotype at rs1012068 of DEPDC5 gene, TT genotype at rs352140 of TLR9 gene, GT genotype at rs1946518 of IL18 gene, and GG genotype at rs2306494 of TERF1 gene were conducive to seroconversion of serum HBeAg. The AA genotype at rs20541 of IL-13 gene and the TT genotype at rs1057035 of DICER1 gene were not conducive to seroconversion of serum HBeAg. Conclusion　The genetic susceptibility markers (single nucleotide polymorphism loci) of host genetic genes in HBeAg-positive patients with CHB are associated with seroconversion of serum HBeAg, and the mechanisms by which these SNPs participate in serum HBeAg seroconversion require further investigation.

Objective To explore the effects of evidence-based nursing combined with multi-dimensional health education on negative emotions and postoperative rehabilitation of patients undergoing elective surgery for cholecystolithiasis.Methods A total of 100 patients with cholecystolithiasis who underwent elective surgery in Yixing Traditional Chinese Hospital Medicine from September 2023 to August 2024 were selected.The patients were assigned to control group and observation group by PEMS3.1 for Windows completely random(two groups and multiple groups)program,with 50 cases in each group.The control group received routine nursing,and the observation group received evidence-based nursing combined with multidimensional health education on the basis of routine nursing.The intervention duration of the two groups was 7 days.Visual analogue scale(VAS)scores,negative emotions(self-rating anxiety scale[SAS]and self-rating depression scale[SDS]),postoperative complications,and postoperative rehabilitation were compared between the two groups.Results The VAS scores at 24 h and 72 h after surgery were lower than those at 6 h after surgery in both groups,especially in the observation group(P<0.05).The scores of SAS and SDS in both groups after intervention were significantly decreased compared with those before intervention,and the scores of negative emotions in the observation group after intervention were significantly lower than those in the control group(P<0.05).The total incidence of gastrointestinal discomfort,biliary fistula and wound infection/bleeding in the observation group was significantly lower than that in the control group(4.00%vs.18.00%,P<0.05).The time of getting out of bed,the time of anal exhaust,the time of resuming normal diet and the time of hospitalization in the observation group were significantly lower than those in the control group(P<0.05).Conclusion The combination of evidence-based nursing and multi-dimensional health education during perioperative period of cholecystolithiasis surgery can reduce postoperative pain,improve the positive attitude of treatment,reduce complications,and promote the recovery of the disease.

Objective: To investigate the seroepidemiological characteristics of hepatitis B among outpatients in medical institutions in Jiaxing City, Zhejiang Province, so as to provide a reference for formulating region-specific hepatitis B prevention and control strategies. Methods: From April to June 2024, outpatients were selected as study subjects from sentinel medical institutions in Jiaxing City. Information such as gender and age was collected. Venous blood samples were obtained and serological markers including hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg), hepatitis B surface antibody (HBsAb), hepatitis B e antigen (HBeAg), hepatitis B e antibody (HBeAb), and hepatitis B core antibody (HBcAb) were tested. Positive rates of hepatitis B virus (HBV) serological markers were analyzed by genders and ages. Results: A total of 1 468 outpatients were included, among whom 721 were males (49.11%) and 747 were females (50.89%). The mean age was (46.41±19.66) years. The positive rates of HBsAg, HBsAb, HBeAg, HBeAb, and HBcAb were 7.29%, 44.75%, 1.84%, 23.50%, and 42.03%, respectively. The HBcAb positive rate in males was significantly higher than in females (46.05% vs. 38.15%, P<0.05), while no statistically significant gender differences were observed in the positive rates of other four HBV serological markers (all P>0.05). Except for HBsAb, the positive rates of the other four HBV serological markers showed statistically significant differences across different age groups (all P<0.05). Pairwise comparisons results showed that the HBsAg positive rates in age groups of 20-<40 years and 40-<60 years were 9.48% and 9.57%, respectively, which were higher than those in age groups of <20 years (1.43%) and ≥60 years (2.75%) (all P<0.05). A total of 17 HBV serological marker patterns were observed, among which the proportion of all markers negative was the highest, at 39.65%. The proportions of "small three positive" (HBsAg+, HBeAb+, HBcAb+) and "large three positive" (HBsAg+, HBeAg+, HBcAb+) patterns were 4.77% and 1.50%, respectively. Among HBsAg-positive individuals, the proportions of the "small three positive" pattern across age groups were 0, 45.45%, 90.00%, and 81.82%, while those of the "large three positive" were 0, 36.36%, 5.00%, and 0, with statistically significant differences across age groups (both P<0.05). Conclusions The positive rate of HBsAg among outpatients in medical institutions in Jiaxing City is relatively high, with a notable proportion of individuals showing either no immunity or non-response to vaccination. It is recommended to strengthen hepatitis B immunization efforts among the population aged 20-<60 years, and to enhance monitoring and interventional treatment for "small three positive" and "large three positive" patterns.
