ObjectiveTo analyze the application trends and research hotspots of neurological rehabilitation over the past decade. MethodsRelevant literatures on neurological rehabilitation published between January, 2015 and December, 2024 were retrieved from the Web of Science Core Collection database. Citespace 6.3.R1 was used for visualization analysis. ResultsA total of 8 727 articles were included, among which 1 117 were from China, with an overall upward trend in annual publication volume in both contexts. The United States was the most productive country, and Harvard University was the most prolific institution. The top three high-frequency keywords globally were spinal cord injury, neurological rehabilitation and virtual reality, whereas the top three high-frequency keywords in China were spinal cord injury, ischemic stroke and brain-computer interface. In recent years, bursting keywords in global included functional neurological disorder, artificial intelligence and deep learning, while bursting keywords in China were neurological function and machine learning. ConclusionOver the past ten years, the volume of global and Chinese researches on neurological rehabilitation has continued to increase. Neurological disorders such as stroke, spinal cord injury, traumatic brain injury and neurodegenerative diseases are the hotspots in this field. The application of emerging technologies, including artificial intelligence, virtual reality, and brain-computer interfaces, is driving the advancement of neurological rehabilitation.

Disruption of the intestinal mucosal barrier caused by gut dysbiosis and metabolic imbalance is the underlying pathology of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Traditional Chinese medicine Wuji Wan (WJW) is commonly used to treat digestive system disorders and showed therapeutic potential for IBD. In this interdisciplinary study, we aim to investigate the pharmacological effects of WJW against experimental colitis by combining functional metabolomics and gut-microbiota sequencing techniques. Treatment with WJW altered the profile of the intestinal microbiota and notably increased the abundance of Lactobacillus, thereby facilitating the conversion of tryptophan into indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) and indoleacrylic acid (IA). These indole derivatives activated the aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR) pathway, which reduced colonic inflammation and restored the expression of intestinal barrier proteins. Interestingly, the beneficial effects of WJW on gut barrier function improvement and tryptophan metabolism were disappeared in the absence of gut microbiota. Finally, pre-treatment with the AhR antagonist CH-223191 confirmed the essential role of IAA-mediated AhR activation in the therapeutic effects of WJW. Overall, WJW enhanced intestinal barrier function and reduced colonic inflammation in a murine colitis model by modulating Lactobacillus-IAA-AhR signaling pathway. This study provides novel insights into colitis pathogenesis and presents an effective therapeutic and preventive approach against IBD.

Temporomandibular joint (TMJ) diseases are common clinical conditions. The number of patients with TMJ diseases is large, and the etiology, epidemiology, disease spectrum, and treatment of the disease remain controversial and unknown. To understand and master the current situation of the occurrence, development and prevention of TMJ diseases, as well as to identify the patterns in etiology, incidence, drug sensitivity, and prognosis is crucial for alleviating patients′suffering.This will facilitate in-depth medical research, effective disease prevention measures, and the formulation of corresponding health policies. Cohort construction and research has an irreplaceable role in precise disease prevention and significant improvement in diagnosis and treatment levels. Large-scale cohort studies are needed to explore the relationship between potential risk factors and outcomes of TMJ diseases, and to observe disease prognoses through long-term follw-ups. The consensus aims to establish a standard conceptual frame work for a cohort study on patients with TMJ disease while providing ideas for cohort data standards to this condition. TMJ disease cohort data consists of both common data standards applicable to all specific disease cohorts as well as disease-specific data standards. Common data were available for each specific disease cohort. By integrating different cohort research resources, standard problems or study variables can be unified. Long-term follow-up can be performed using consistent definitions and criteria across different projects for better core data collection. It is hoped that this consensus will be facilitate the development cohort studies of TMJ diseases.

Objective:To explore the effect of humanistic care combined with Morita therapy on anxiety state of hemodialysis patients.Methods:A self-controlled study was conducted on 54 patients with end-stage renal disease and anxiety who received maintenance hemodialysis in China-Japan Friendship Hospital from August 2020 to August 2022. All patients were treated with humanistic care nursing and Morita therapy for one month. The Self Rating Anxiety Scale (SAS) scores of the patients before and after the intervention were compaired. The comparison of quantitative data was conducted by paired t-test, and the comparison of qualitative data was conducted by χ2 test. The correlation between different factors and anxiety was analyzed by Spearman correlation analysis. Results:Among the 54 patients, there were 26 males and 28 females, aged (61.8±16.3) years (ranging from 29 to 88 years). The SAS score after the intervention (44.0±11.1) was lower than that before the intervention (51.9±8.5) ( t=5.395, P<0.001). The anxiety of patients was related to their age ( r=0.305), employment status ( r=0.270) and marital status ( r=0.397) (all P<0.05). The satisfaction of patients with care measures and nursing before and after the intervention was 45.6% and 87.7%, respectively ( χ2=5.720, P<0.05). Conclusion:After receiving combined humanistic care nursing and Morita therapy, patients in a state of anxiety could experience significant psychological improvement, which is conducive to the successful completion of hemodialysis treatment and enhances the quality of life for patients.

Objective To investigate the characteristics of human papillomavirus (HPV) prevalence and genotype distribution of 18 535 cases in Yuncheng . Methods A sample of 18535 residents who underwent HPV testing in our hospital from August 2020 to September 2023 were enrolled, and HPV genotyping was done to all samples. Then the rate of HPV infection, age distribution, genotype distribution, and multiple infections were statistically analyzed. Results Of the 18,535 subjects included, a total of 4,639 tested positive for HPV, demonstrating a positive rate of 25.03%. The positive rate of HPV infection varied among different age groups (χ²=29.587, P<0.05), with higher rates found in <25 years old group (29.61%) and >60 years old group (25.89%). Overall, 23 genotypes, covering 5315 viruses, were detected.
