Objective: To understand the characteristics of fall injuries among the elderly aged ≥60 years in Zhuhai City, Guangdong Province from 2018 to 2025, so as to provide evidence for the prevention and control of fall injuries in the elderly. Methods: Data on first-visit cases of fall injuries among the elderly aged ≥60 years in the outpatient and emergency departments of 3 national sentinel hospitals in Zhuhai City from 2018 to 2025 were collected through the injury surveillance module of the Guangdong Provincial Comprehensive Management Platform for Population Health Information. Descriptive analysis was conducted on the occurrence time, occurrence location, activity at the time and clinical characteristics of the fall injuryies. Results: A total of 22 145 cases of fall injuries among the elderly were reported from 2018 to 2025, including 8 365 male cases and 13 780 female cases, with a male-to-female ratio of 0.61∶1. The 60-<70 years age group had 10 087 cases (45.55%), the 70-<80 years age group had 6 633 cases (29.95%), and the ≥80 years age group had 5 425 cases (24.50%). More cases of fall injuries were reported in December and during 8∶00-10∶00, with 2 542 cases (11.48%) and 5 196 cases (23.46%), respectively. The main occurrence location of fall injuries was home, with 9 741 cases (43.99%). The main activity at the time off all injuries was leisure activity, with 11 284 cases (50.96%). The top 3 types of fall injuries were fracture/joint dislocation, craniocerebral injury and contusion/abrasion, with 7 530 cases (34.00%), 5 578 cases (25.19%) and 4 974 cases (22.46%), respectively. The leading type of fall injury in males was craniocerebral injury, with 2 340 cases (27.97%); while that in females was fracture/joint dislocation, with 5 281 cases (38.32%). The top 3 body parts of fall injuries were lower extremities, head and neck, and trunk, with 5 765 cases (26.03%), 5 421 cases (24.48%) and 5 406 cases (24.41%), respectively. The leading body part of fall injuries in males was head and neck, with 2 613 cases (31.24%); while that in females was lower extremities, with 3 687 cases (26.76%). The severity of fall injuries was mainly mild, with 15 004 cases (67.75%) . With the increase of age, the constituent ratio of head and neck as the body parts of fall injuries, as well as the constituent ratios of observation, referral and hospitalization as the outcomes of fall injuries among the elderly showed an upward trend (all P<0.05). Conclusions Fall injuries among the elderly in Zhuhai City peaked in December and during the morning period. Home was the main occurrence location of injuries. Females were key populations for prevention and control. Targeted prevention of adverse health outcomes induced by fall injuries is essential for advanced-age elderly populations.

Objective:To explore the core dimensions of adolescent anxiety and their relationship with parental rearing styles and perceived social support using network analysis.Methods:A total of 3 712 adolescents were in-vestigated.The Screen for Child Anxiety Related Emotional Disorders,the Short-form Egna Minnenav Barndoms Uppfostran for Chinese,and the Perceived Social Support Scale were used to assess the anxiety levels,parental rea-ring styles,and perceived social support.Network analysis and gender network comparison were conducted using R programming language.Results:The network analysis model showed that generalized anxiety and somatization/pan-ic anticipation had the highest Expected Influence of 1.21 and 1.12,which were the two core dimensions of adoles-cent anxiety levels.The affective warmth in parental rearing styles had a Bridge Expected Influence index of 0.34,making it a bridging node in the network.The network comparison result indicated that there were significant struc-tural gender differences in the adolescent anxiety-parenting style-perceived social support network(P＜0.05),but there was no significant gender difference in global strength(P＞0.05).Conclusion:Interventions targeting adoles-cent anxiety should prioritize generalized anxiety and somatization/panic.Emotional warmth in parenting serves as a bridge connecting adolescent anxiety with perceived levels of social support.

Objective:To investigate the impact of different target sites, number of treatments, and age on setup errors in dual-isocenter radiotherapy for breast cancer, and to provide a basis for planning target volume (PTV) margin expansion.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on data from 15 patients with left-sided breast cancer who underwent dual-isocenter breath-hold radiotherapy in the Department of Radiotherapy Oncology at the Second Hospital of Hebei Medical University from May 2021 to May 2023. Setup errors were acquired using a Varian TrueBeam STX linear accelerator. Patients were grouped by target site (supraclavicular/chest wall), treatment phase (early/late), and age (younger/older). Non-parametric tests were used to analyze differences in setup errors in : vertical (Vrt), longitudinal (Lng), lateral (Lat) directions, and pitch, roll, and rotation (Rtn) angles. The formula proposed by van Herk was applied to calculate PTV margins.Results:The Vrt direction setup error in the supraclavicular region (0.2 cm) was smaller than that in the chest wall region (0.26 cm), but errors and margin expansions in other directions were larger ( P<0.05 for Lng and Lat directions). No significant correlation was observed in Vrt direction errors between the two sites ( P=0.062), while significant correlations were found in the other directions and angles (all P<0.05). As treatment progressed, setup errors increased in the Vrt and Rtn directions for the supraclavicular region, and in the Vrt, Lng, Lat directions and Rtn angle for the chest wall region. Among these, only the increase in Lat direction error for the chest wall region was statistically significant ( P=0.028). The PTV margins in the late phase group (except for the Lat direction of the supraclavicular region) were greater than or equal to those in the early phase group. Elderly patients had significantly larger setup errors than younger patients in Vrt, Lng, and Lat directions for the supraclavicular region, as well as in Vrt and Lat directions for the chest wall region (all P<0.05). Conclusions:In dual-isocenter radiotherapy for breast cancer, the supraclavicular region requires larger PTV margins than the chest wall region, and elderly patients require greater margins overall. Mid-course rescanning is recommended. If cone-beam CT guidance cannot be ensured for every session, expansion of PTV margins should be considered for the supraclavicular region and elderly patients to reduce the risk of geographic miss.

Colorectal cancer is a common and malignant tumor in the digestive tract. Invasion and metastasis of cancer cells are key factors leading to the high mortality rate and postoperative recurrence of colorectal cancer. Chemotherapy is the main treatment method for preventing recurrence of this disease. However， there are many toxic side effects in clinical application， which seriously hinder the treatment process. Therefore， it is imperative to search for efficient and low-toxicity drugs. Traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） has a long history of treating colorectal cancer and offers advantages such as safety， effectiveness， multiple targets， multiple pathways and minimal toxic side effects， which have made it increasingly popular worldwide. According to TCM， the pathogenesis of colorectal cancer is rooted in both deficiency and excess. TCM formulas mainly focus on tonifying the body to address the invasion and metastasis of colorectal cancer， such as Jianpi compound， Jianpi Xiaoai decoction， and Bushen Jiedu Sanjie decoction. TCM monomers， such as emodin， berberine， and tanshinone， mainly focus on clearing heat and removing toxin， circulating blood and transforming stasis， and resolving swelling and dispersing nodules. Signaling pathways play a crucial role for analyzing invasion and metastasis， and research has shown that pathways such as Wnt/β-catenin， phosphatidylinositol-3 kinase/protein kinase （PI3K/Akt）， Janus kinase 2/signal transduction and transcription activating factor 3 （JAK2/STAT3）， nuclear factors-κB （NF-κB）， vascular endothelial growth factor （VEGF） play important roles in the invasion and metastasis of colorectal cancer. The invasion and metastasis of colorectal cancer can be inhibited via regulating the key proteins and related factors in these pathways. In this review， we searched various literature databases， such as PubMed， China National Knowledge Infrastructure （CNKI）， and VIP， using keywords such as "colorectal cancer"， "signaling pathway"， "invasion and metastasis"， and "traditional Chinese medicine"， to summarize and analyze the relevant pathways of TCM compounds and monomers against invasion and metastasis of colorectal cancer published in the past five years. The review aims to provide new insights and references for in-depth research on the therapy for invasion and metastasis of colorectal cancer and new drug development.

ObjectiveTo understand the uncorrected visual acuity, spherical equivalent and hyperopia reserve of 6‒8-year-old primary school students in Jing’an District of Shanghai, and to provide a scientific basis for further myopia prevention and control. MethodsA total of 619 children aged between 6‒8 years old from three primary schools in Jing’an District were selected by cluster sampling method for uncorrected eye visual acuity examination and diopter examination after cycloplegia (mydriasis). ResultsThe mean uncorrected visual acuity of the619 students aged 6‒8 years old was (4.9±0.2), and the mean spherical equivalent was (0.84±1.11) D. The difference in uncorrected visual acuity was not statistically significant as the age increased (F=0.057, P=0.812), but the spherical equivalent decreased with the increase of age, showing a statistically significant difference (F=26.533, P<0.001). There was no statistically significant difference in uncorrected visual acuity(t=-1.614, P=0.107) and spherical equivalent (t=-1.675, P=0.094) between students of different genders. Finally, among the 619 students, 59.80% of them had abnormal uncorrected visual acuity, 34.90% had insufficient hyperopia reserve, and only 5.30% had sufficient hyperopia reserve. Besides, the proportion of abnormal uncorrected visual acuity in 7-year-old students was 67.50%, higher than that of students with other ages, and the difference was statistically significant (χ²_trend=29.729, P<0.001). While the difference in abnormal uncorrected visual acuity between students of different genders was not statistically significant (χ²=0.068, P=0.967). ConclusionThe deficiency of hyperopia reserve in 6‒8-year-old students in Jing’an District of Shanghai is serious. Attention should be paid to the visual acuity of school-aged children in lower grades, and intervention measures should be actively carried out to slow down the progression of myopia.

Objective To understand the current status of radiation diagnosis and treatment resources and their use in Taiyuan City, China, and provide data support for optimizing resource allocation and standardizing diagnosis and treatment. Methods A census-based approach was implemented using a standardized questionnaire to collect basic information on radiation diagnosis and treatment institutions in Taiyuan City. The number and use frequency of radiation diagnosis and treatment resources were calculated based on the resident population of Taiyuan City at the end of 2023. Results There were a total of 562 radiation diagnosis and treatment institutions in Taiyuan City, with 3970 workers and 1354 pieces of equipment. The numbers of radiation diagnosis and treatment institutions, workers, and equipment per 1 000 000 population were 103, 728, and 248, respectively. There were significant differences in radiation diagnosis and treatment resources among different districts and counties. There were 526 (93.59%) radiation diagnosis and treatment institutions and 25 (96.15%) tertiary hospitals in the six urban districts. All institutions offering nuclear medicine diagnosis and treatment and radiotherapy were located in the urban districts. There were substantial disparities among hospitals of different levels. The average numbers of radiation workers and equipment were in the order of tertiary hospitals (99.42, 17.15) > secondary hospitals (13.31, 4.62) > primary and unrated hospitals (1.43, 1.38). The frequency of radiation diagnosis and treatment in tertiary hospitals was 112 149 per hospital, which is 5 times that of secondary hospitals and 44 times that of primary and unrated hospitals. The use frequency of radiation diagnosis and treatment was 975.79 per 1000 population. The use frequency was 941.12 per 1000 population for X-ray diagnosis, 21.68 per 1000 population for interventional radiology, 8.70 per 1000 population for nuclear medicine diagnosis, 2.33 per 1000 population for nuclear medicine treatment, and 1.95 per 1000 population for radiotherapy. Conclusion There are abundant radiation diagnosis and treatment resources in Taiyuan City. The use frequency of radiation diagnosis and treatment has reached the level of Class II medical and health care regions, and there remains considerable room for growth and improvement. At present, the distribution of radiation diagnosis and treatment resources and services is unbalanced among different districts and counties as well as among institutions of different levels, mainly concentrated in urban districts and tertiary hospitals. The health administrative department needs to make overall plans and allocate resources scientifically.

Objective To analyze the abnormal individual dose monitoring results in 206 medical institutions in a selected region in 2024, and to propose improvement measures. Methods Individuals with monitoring results exceeding the investigation level were subjected to high-dose investigation, and the results were statistically analyzed. Results In 2024, the individual dose monitoring of 206 medical institutions in a selected region showed 1.04% abnormal results. The proportions of abnormal results from primary, secondary, and tertiary medical institutions were 12.22%, 3.33%, and 84.45%, respectively. In analysis of the causes of abnormal results, 52.53% of the cases were due to personal dosimeters left in the radiation workplace, and 20.20% were due to the confusion in wearing personal dosimeters inside and outside the lead apron. In analysis of the occupational distribution of the radiation workers with abnormal monitoring results, interventional radiology and diagnostic radiology accounted for 73.34% and 24.44%, respectively. Statistical analysis of the dose range showed that doses in the ranges of 1.25-2.0 mSv and 2.0-5.0 mSv accounted for 42.22% and 33.33%, respectively. In the report of abnormal monitoring results, the proportions of reporting notional dose and reporting measured results accounted for 88.89% and 11.11%, respectively. Among institutions with consecutive abnormal results, primary, secondary, and tertiary medical institutions accounted for 15.39%, 7.69%, and 76.92%, respectively. Conclusion The level of the hospital, occupational type, the perceived importance of the hospital to the management of radiation protection, and the perceived importance and compliance of the radiation workers with the individual dose monitoring are potential causes of abnormal results. It is recommended that employers should enhance radiation protection training for their radiation workers to ensure proper wearing and storage of dosimeters, and progressively improve the standardization and effectiveness of individual dose monitoring practice.
