Background: and Purpose Therapeutic target selection in noninvasive brain stimulation for poststroke motor recovery typically relies on the interhemispheric inhibition model, which is effective for mildly affected patients but offers limited benefits for severely affected individuals. The mechanisms governing recovery from moderate-to-severe stroke remain poorly understood, which hinders the development of targeted interventions. Methods: We analyzed resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging data from patients with unilateral subcortical stroke and moderate-to-severe upper limb deficits, both pre- and postintervention, along with data from healthy controls. We developed a novel dynamic lag analysis method for identifying recovery-related homotopic sensorimotor regions with altered interhemispheric interactions. To further uncover the global reorganization pathway, we developed dynamic lateralization approaches to detect large-scale functional connectivity (FC) alterations associated with the identified regions in transient lateralization states. Results: Dynamic time-lag analysis revealed significantly reduced synchronized states in the homotopic dorsal premotor cortex (PMd) post-intervention compared with pre-intervention, which correlated with motor recovery. Further dynamic lateralization analysis revealed a prolonged segregation state in patients, characterized by weakened interhemispheric and strengthened intrahemispheric interactions. In this state, patients showed decreased FC in the ipsilesional PMd and increased FC in the contralesional PMd with bilateral subcortical networks. These recoveryrelated alterations were absent in the traditional static analysis. Conclusions Dynamic analyses targeting interhemispheric interactions are valuable for understanding neural reorganization after stroke. The diminished interactions between the homotopic PMd indicate a compensatory mechanism. Importantly, a state-dependent compensatory pathway was identified, wherein the contralesional PMd assumes the functions of the ipsilesional PMd through enhanced interactions with subcortical structures, potentially guiding more effective interventions.

Objective Estimating the residual risk of transfusion-transmitted diseases in voluntary blood donors is crucial for monitoring blood safety.and to analyze the evolution trend over a five-year period in Yantai,Shandong Province.Methods This study retrospectively reviewed screening data from Yantai Central Blood Station between 2018 and 2022.We compared the positivity rates between first-time and repeat donors,calculated the prevalence of each virus,and estimated the residual risk using the prevalence-window period model.Meanwhile,the age characteristics of all positive donors were analyzed.Results Over the five-year period,a total of 320 016 individuals donated blood.The overall reaction rate of transfusion-transmitted diseases was 0.165%,with HBV(0.129%)being the most common.The positivity rate among first-time donors[P(FTDs)](0.310%)was significantly higher than that among repeat donors[P(RDs)](0.054%)(χ2=312.783,P<0.05).The serological residual risks for HBV,HCV,and HIV were 1∶188 090,1∶1 042 805,and 1∶392 995,respectively.During the five-year period,they decreased from 1∶129 495 to 1∶390 011,from 1∶697 002 to 1∶1 145 826,and from 1∶684 109 to 1∶1 067 317,respectively.The residual risks of HCV and HIV after NAT were 1∶22 369 329 and 1∶6 639 965,respectively,which were significantly reduced by 21.5-fold and 16.9-fold,and decreased steadily during the study period.Among the HBV-DNA(+)donors,61.8%(68/110)were RDs,and the residual risk was 1∶65 350.Conclusion This study demonstrates the remarkable effectiveness of introducing nucleic acid amplification technology(NAT)in reducing the residual risk of HBV,HCV,and HIV,particularly for HCV and HIV.The residual risk for HBV remains higher compared to HCV and HIV due to the discovery of occult HBV infections(OBI).Therefore,a crucial step toward further reducing this residual risk is the use of more sensitive reagents and detection platforms.Furthermore,implementing effective long-term incentive mechanisms and strategic planning to increase the proportion of repeat donors(RDs)is critical for enhancing transfusion safety.

To establish a rapid Akabane virus(AKAV)antibody detection method in animals,the re-combination AKAV N protein was expressed by the expression system of Escherichia coli,puri-fied from the supernatant,and used to immunized New Zealand White rabbits.The polyclonal anti-body against AKAV N protein had a titer of 1∶8.192×107 and showed good reactivity.After opti-mizing the reaction conditions,an AKAV double antigen sandwich ELISA antibody detection method was established.This method can detect AKAV antibody in a variety of animals including cattles,sheep and goats.The method had no cross-reactivity with the positive serum of BTV,EHDV,BEV and PRV with the intra-and inter-batch coefficients of variation less than 10％.Com-pared with the AKAV blocking ELISA kit,the sensibility of the method was increased by 8-16 folds with a compliance rate of 93.33％and the κ value of 0.864.These results showed that the double antigen sandwich ELISA displayed strong specificity,high sensitivity and repeatability,which could provide technical suport for detection,the prevention and control of AKAV.

OBJECTIVE To prepare spider fibroin membrane loaded with Periplaneta americana extract， and investigate its characterization， in vitro drug release property and cytotoxicity. METHODS Using natural spider silk collected from Chilobrachys guangxiensis as raw material， P. americana extract as model drug， the drug-loaded spider fibroin membrane （hereinafter referred to as drug-loaded membrane） was prepared by solvent casting method. The material matrix spider fibroin membrane without P. americana extract （hereinafter referred to as blank membrane） was prepared with same method. The membrane structure was characterized by static water contact angle， Fourier infrared chromatography， X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy from different angles； drug release characteristics in artificial saliva were simulated in vitro to evaluate the drug sustained-release performance. MTT assay was adopted to validate the cytotoxicity of drug-loaded membrane. RESULTS The drug-loaded membrane was prepared， and the static water contact angle was less than 90°， which was less than that of blank membrane. The drug-loaded membrane showed the characteristic absorption peak to polypeptide of P. americana extract at 1 500-1 700 cm－1. X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy also proved that the drug was successfully loaded into the pellicle. The release time of the pellicle in artificial saliva was more than 200 min. The MTT test results showed that the cell proliferation rates of blank membrane and drug-loaded membrane were 84.6% and 79.4% （both greater than 70%）， respectively， without significant potential cytotoxicity. CONCLUSIONS Drug-loaded membrane prepared with natural spider silk has a certain sustained-release effect in artificial saliva， which can be further developed as a drug sustained-release carrier with excellent biological characteristics and biocompatibility.

Hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection is closely associated with the adverse events such as liver cirrhosis, liver cancer, and liver failure and remains a serious threat to human health. Pegylated interferon is an indispensable drug for the treatment of chronic hepatitis B (CHB), and interferon-stimulated genes are associated with a variety of viruses, but few studies have mentioned their association with hepatitis B and their predictive effect after the treatment of hepatitis B with interferon. This article introduces the predictive factors for interferon treatment of CHB and summarizes the association of interferon-stimulated genes with hepatitis B and their predictive effect, so as to provide a reference for clinical work and basic research.

Objective: To explore the relation of eating behavior to family health and personality traits in adolescents, and to provide empirical support for personality based prediction of adolescents susceptibility to poor eating behavior and family intervention. Methods: A total of 563 adolescents aged 12 to 17 years old from nuclear families, who were selected from "Survey of Chinese Family Health Index(2021)". A general characteristic questionnaire, Short form of Family Health Scale, 10 item Big Five Inventory, and Short form of Sakata Eating Behavior Scale were used to collect information. The relationships of eating behavior to family health and personality traits were analyzed by structural equation modeling. Results: Group comparison indicated that there was a significant difference in scores of the big five personalities and eating behaviors among adolescents from diverse family health statuses( P <0.01). Additionally, there were significant correlations among family health, personality traits, and eating behavior( P <0.01). Structural equation modeling showed that family health resources (-0.34), conscientiousness (-0.17), extraversion ( 0.14 ), agreeableness (-0.13) directly affected eating behavior( P <0.05). Meanwhile, family external social support associated with eating behavior by affecting extraversion (0.22), and family health resources associated with eating behavior by affecting agreeableness(0.12)( P <0.05). Conclusion Not only could family health directly affect eating behavior, but it could indirectly associate with eating behavior by affecting personality traits among adolescents in nuclear families. The role of the family in improving adolescent poor eating behavior should be emphasized.

Objective:To explore the mechanism of motor imagery training (MIT) combined with conventional rehabilitation to promote the functional recovery of upper limbs in stroke survivors. To explore the brain network reorganization resulting when motor imagery training (MIT) is combined with conventional rehabilitation to promote the motor recovery of stroke survivors.Methods:Fourteen hemiplegic patients were recruited as the MIT group. They underwent 4 weeks of MIT (30 min/day, 5 days/week) along with conventional rehabilitation treatment. The upper limb section of the Fugl-Meyer assessment (FMA-UE) and the modified Barthel Index (MBI) were used to assess all of the patients, and resting-state fMRI was performed before and after the treatment. Twenty-eight age- and sex-matched healthy subjects also received one-time resting-state fMRI scanning. Granger causal analysis was performed in the MIT group to calculate the changes in effective connection between the ipsilesional primary motor cortex and the whole brain before and after the treatment, and the results were compared with the healthy control group.Results:After the treatment, the average FMA-UE and MBI of the MIT group had increased significantly. Before the intervention, the effective connection mode of the ipsilesional M1 area in the MIT group was significantly different from that of the healthy controls. The causal flow from the ipsilesional M1 area to the bilateral prefrontal cortex had increased abnormally and the causal flow from the contralesional primary motor cortex, the inferior parietal lobule and the cerebellum to the ipsilesional M1 area had decreased significantly. After the treatment, the effective connection pattern of the stroke survivors was nearly normal, and the causal influence from contralesional motor imagery-related brain areas (the superior parietal lobule, inferior parietal lobule, thalamus and the fusiform gyrus) to the ipsilesional M1 area was enhanced. Effective connection from the ipsilesional M1 area to the contralesional cerebellum before the intervention was positively correlated with the improvement in FMA-UE scores, and the effective connection from the contralesional middle frontal gyrus to the ipsilesional M1 area was correlated negatively.Conclusions:The neural mechanism of MIT's effectiveness when it is combined with conventional rehabilitation might be related to the reorganization of effective connections. That would include enhanced causal flow between motor imagery-related brain areas and the contralesional cerebellum and ipsilesional M1 area. Down-regulation of the effective connection from the contralesional middle frontal gyrus to the ipsilesional M1 area also occurs.

Objective To measure the efficacy of combining motor imagery training ( MIT) with convention-al therapy in improving stroke patients′upper-extremity function. And to seek a cortical reorganization mechanism as-sociated with the improvement using resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging ( rs-fMRI) . Methods Ten stroke survivors were selected as an experimental group. They were given motor imagery training for four weeks ( 30 minutes a day, 5 days a week) and conventional rehabilitation therapy ( 40 minutes a day, 5 days a week) . Another 10 healthy counterparts were the control group. Before and after the four weeks of treatment, both groups were as-sessed using the upper extremity Fugl-Meyer assessment ( FMA-UE) and the modified Barthel index ( MBI) . Moreo-ver, rs-fMRI was conducted to assess functional connectivity between cortical regions and the ipsilesional primary mo-tor cortex ( M1) before and after the intervention. The laterality index ( LI) of the primary motor or sensory cortex was also calculated. Results After the intervention, the average FMA-UE and MBI scores of the experimental group had increased significantly. After MIT and conventional therapy there was increased functional connectivity between the ip-silesional and contralesional M1 areas, and between the ipsilesional M1 and contralesional primary sensory cortex ( S1) and frontal lobe, the functional connection between the ipsilesional M1 and the ipsilesional paracentral lobule and the anterior cingutate was also increased. More specifically, the LI relating M1 and S1 decreased after the inter-vention, tending toward the normal level. LIMI decreased significantly. Conclusion The 4-week regimen of motor imagery training and conventional therapy resulted in functional improvement in the upper limbs and greater ability in the activities of daily living. The observed improvements may be due to cortical reorganization, including better func-tional connectivity between the bilateral M1 areas and increased connectivity between the ipsilesional M1 area and some non-motor areas. There is some recovery of symmetry in the bilateral primary motor cortex.
