Objective: To explore the intervention effects of different exercise modalities on executive function in school aged children, providing references for formulating exercise prescriptions to promote school aged children executive function. Methods: A systematic literature search was conducted using PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, CNKI, Wanfang, VIP and CBM to identify studies on the effects of exercises on executive function in school aged children. The search period spanned from the database inception to August 2025. Two researchers independently screened the literature, extracted data, and evaluated the risk of bias of the included studies. Network Meta analysis was performed using Stata 16.0. Results: A total of 51 studies involving 5 710 school aged children and seven modalities of exercises(control group,small ball sports,large ball sports,aerobic exercise,combined exercise,sport game,gymnastic and dance sports) were finally included. Network Meta analysis showed that, in terms of inhibitory control development of school aged children, small ball sports ( SMD =-0.98,95% CI =-1.32 to -0.64 ), large ball sports ( SMD =-0.64,95% CI =-0.91 to -0.36), and mixed sports ( SMD =-0.26,95% CI =-0.50 to -0.02]) were more effective than the control group; in terms of working memory, largeball sports ( SMD =-1.26,95% CI =-1.88 to -0.65) and small ball sports ( SMD =-0.91,95% CI =-1.64 to -0.19) were superior to the control group; in terms of improving cognitive flexibility, large ball sports ( SMD =-1.02,95% CI =-1.28 to -0.76), gymnastics and dance sports ( SMD =-0.80,95% CI =-1.21 to -0.40), and small ball sports ( SMD =-0.75,95% CI =-1.15 to -0.36) were more effective than the control group (all P <0.05). Surface under cumulative ranking curve(SUCRA) showed that small ball sports had the highest value (SUCRA=98.9%) in improving inhibitory control, while large ball sports achieved the highest score(SUCRA=92.6%) in enhancing working memory, and large ball sports also had the highest value(SUCRA=94.7%) in promoting cognitive flexibility. Conclusions For developing inhibitory control in school aged children, small ball sports are recommended as a priority. For enhancing working memory and cognitive flexibility, large ball sports are recommended.

BACKGROUND:Paraspinal muscle degeneration is one of the main causative factors of low back pain,and the changes in the paraspinal muscles are closely related to its occurrence and development.At present,clinical practitioners focus on the changes of paraspinal muscles in degenerative lumbar diseases to prevent and treat lumbar diseases,but ignore the connection and related mechanisms between lumbar intervertebral disc degeneration and paraspinal muscles.OBJECTIVE:To comprehensively summarize the interaction between paraspinal muscles and lumbar intervertebral discs,and to review the relationship and mechanisms between lumbar intervertebral disc degeneration and paraspinal muscles,in order to provide a reference for clinical prevention and treatment.METHODS:Chinese keywords"lumbar intervertebral disc,paraspinal muscle,multifidus muscle,low back pain,degeneration,imaging,magnetic resonance imaging"were used to search the relevant literature in Chinese databases such as CNKI,VIP,and WanFang.English keywords"lumbar disc,paraspinal muscle,multifidus muscle,low back pain,degeneration,imaging,MRI"were used to search the relevant literature in databases such as Medline,PubMed,and Web of Science.After preliminary screening of titles and abstracts,68 articles were finally selected for result analysis according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)Researchers have used various methods to evaluate the degree of paraspinal muscle degeneration,and at the same time evaluated the degree of lumbar intervertebral disc degeneration according to the Pfirrmann grading system.It is found that clinical diagnosis and treatment should pay attention to gender differences,and the influence of factors such as obesity on the degeneration of intervertebral discs and muscles,in order to develop more individualized treatment plans.(2)There is a certain correlation between lumbar intervertebral disc degeneration and paraspinal muscle fat infiltration,but the research results are controversial.Most studies have found that fat infiltration of the paraspinal muscles(especially the multifidus muscle)is positively correlated with the degree of lumbar intervertebral disc degeneration.(3)It is currently believed that the three mechanisms of disuse atrophy,denervation,and inflammatory factors may interact with each other to jointly lead to structural and functional changes in the paraspinal muscles,which are closely related to the occurrence of lumbar intervertebral disc degeneration and low back pain.(4)Clinically,attention should be paid to the changes of the muscles at the level below the affected nerve root segment,which is helpful for the diagnosis and localization of lumbar radiculopathy.At the same time,inhibition of inflammatory factors may become a potential target for treatment.(5)Clinically,the first step is to correct nerve root compression through appropriate medication or surgery to control inflammatory reactions and nerve root pain,and then carry out targeted muscle rehabilitation training.If necessary,consider using new treatment methods such as interferential current electrical stimulation to improve the patient's symptoms and prognosis.

Objective:To compare the efficacy and safety of SRS-Schwab grade 4 osteotomy and vertebral column resection (VCR) in the surgical correction of type II congenital kyphosis (CK).Methods:A retrospective review was conducted on clinical and radiographic data from patients with type II CK who underwent corrective surgery at Nanjing Drum Tower Hospital between June 2008 and December 2021. Patients were divided into two groups based on the osteotomy technique employed: the VCR group (21cases) and the SRS-Schwab grade 4 osteotomy group (19 cases). Clinical parameters, including operative duration, estimated blood loss (EBL), number of segmentation failure levels, number of fused segments, and the use of anterior support cages, were compared between groups. Radiographic parameters included the number of segmentation fusion and measurements of segmental kyphosis (SK) preoperatively, postoperatively, and at the final follow-up. The degree and rate of SK correction were also calculated and compared. Complications such as neurophysiological monitoring events, neurological injury, implant breakage, proximal junctional kyphosis/lordosis (PJK/PJL), sagittal translation (ST), and implant failure were recorded. Additionally, SRS-22 questionnaire scores were assessed preoperatively, postoperatively, and at the latest follow-up.Results:A total of 40 patients were included, with a mean follow-up duration of 48.96±21.31 months (range, 24-96 months). Compared to the SRS-Schwab group, the VCR group had significantly more levels of segmentation defect (3.85±0.79 vs. 2.68±0.54), required more fused segments (8.00±2.23 vs. 5.47±2.04), had longer operative time (358.71±77.06 min vs. 212.52±77.05 min), and greater EBL (963.66±278.49 ml vs. 698.94±222.20 ml), all with statistically significant differences ( P<0.05). No significant differences were observed in local kyphotic angle, correction magnitude, or correction rate between groups postoperatively (P>0.05). Among patients with ≤48 months of follow-up, the SRS-Schwab group showed significantly lower SK (13.00°±16.28° vs. 34.00°±21.37°) and a higher correction rate (82.52%±21.40% vs. 52.84%±24.67%) at final follow-up ( P<0.05). However, no significant differences were observed in patients with >48 months of follow-up ( P>0.05), or in the overall cohort regardless of follow-up duration ( P>0.05). Complication rates were comparable between groups ( P>0.05). One neurophysiological monitoring event, 1 neurological injury, 3 cases of PJK, 1 case of PJL, 2 cases of ST, and 2 implant failures were observed in VCR group. The SRS-Schwab Grade 4 osteotomy group had 1 neurophysiological monitoring event, 1 neurological injury, 4 cases of PJK, 2 cases of ST, and 1 implant failure. The complication rates between the groups were not statistically different ( P>0.05). Both groups showed significant improvements in the self-image domain of the SRS-22 postoperatively and at the final follow-up ( P<0.05). In the function domain, both groups also demonstrated significant improvement at the final follow-up ( P<0.05), while the SRS-Schwab group showed earlier improvement at 3 months postoperatively ( P<0.05). Conclusions:SRS-Schwab grade 4 osteotomy provides comparable correction of segmental kyphosis to VCR but offers the advantages of significantly reduced blood loss and shorter operative time. Both surgical techniques effectively improve patients' quality of life.

AIM: To investigate the impacts of periocular injection of triamcinolone acetonide on healing effect and inflammatory factor in patients with acute iridocyclitis.METHODS:Totally 90 patients(90 eyes)with acute iridocyclitis, admitted to our hospital between September 2018 and September 2023, were grouped via random number table, including a triamcinolone acetonide group and a control group, each comprising 45 patients(45 eyes). The control group underwent conventional treatment, whereas the triamcinolone acetonide group adopted triamcinolone acetonide through periocular injection. The healing effect, levels of inflammatory cytokines, anterior chamber inflammatory cell scores, keratic precipitates(KP)scores, best-corrected visual acuity(BCVA), untoward reactions, and relapse rates of the two groups of patients were compared.RESULTS:The triamcinolone acetonide group had significantly higher overall efficacy rate than the control group(P<0.05). The levels of tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α), interleukin-6(IL-6), and interferon-γ(IFN-γ)decreased in both groups at 30 d after treatment, and the levels in the triamcinolone acetonide group were lower(all P<0.05). After treatment for 30 d, the scores of anterior chamber inflammatory cells and KP in both groups decreased, and the scores in the triamcinolone acetonide group were lower than those in the control group(all P<0.05); the BCVA of both groups improved, and the triamcinolone acetonide group had a better BCVA(all P<0.05). There was no statistically significant difference in untoward reactions between the two groups(P=1.000). The relapse rate of the triamcinolone acetonide group was lower than that of the control group(P=0.030).CONCLUSION: Periocular injection of triamcinolone acetonide has obvious healing effects on patients with acute iridocyclitis, and it can alleviate the inflammatory state of patients and reduce the relapse rate of inflammation.

Objective:To explore the relationship between internal dimethylformamide (DMF) exposure levels and age and abnormal liver function in occupationally exposed workers, and to provide a reference for the prevention of DMF-induced toxicity.Methods:A total of 388 DMF exposed workers from 4 synthetic leather enterprises in Taicang City were selected by cluster sampling method from May to October 2024, and the data of occupational health examination and biological exposure indicators were collected. The relationship between N-methylcarbyl hemoglobin adduct (NMHb) and age and serum alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), AST/ALT and gamma-glutamyl transpeptidyase (γ-GT) was analyzed by logistic regression, interaction effect analysis, and restricted cubic spline models.Results:The median age of 388 workers was 45.98 years old, the median concentration of NMHb was 165.50 nmol/g Hb, and the abnormal rate of liver function was 40.7% (158/388). NMHb and age of DMF-exposed workers were the influencing factors for liver dysfunction ( P<0.05), and the multiplicative interaction between the two was not statistically significant ( P=0.303), nor was the additive interaction statistically significant [relative excess risk due to interaction (RERI) =0.17 (95% CI: -2.35, 2.69), attributable proportion (AP) =0.03 (95% CI: -0.47, 0.54), synergy index (S) =1.04 (95% CI: 0.54, 2.02) ]. NMHb concentration was positively correlated with the abnormal risk of ALT, AST, AST/ALT, γ-GT and the concentration of ALT, AST, γ-GT ( Poverall <0.05, Pnonlinear>0.05), and negatively correlated with AST/ALT ( Poverall=0.032, Pnonlinear=0.781). Age was negatively correlated with abnormal risk of ALT, AST/ALT and ALT concentration ( Poverall<0.001, Pnonlinear>0.05), and positively correlated with AST/ALT ( Poverall=0.025, Pnonlinear=0.485) . Conclusion:There is a close relationship between NMHb and age of DMF-exposed workers and abnormal liver function. γ-GT can be used as a sensitive index, and special attention should be paid to the change of ALT index in elderly workers. Age should also be considered when AST/ALT is used as the screening indicator.

Objective:To analyze the current status, hotspots, and trends of community integration (CI) at home and abroad, providing directions for subsequent research.Methods:The China National Knowledge Infrastructure and the Web of Science Core Collection data were used, and CiteSpace software was employed to analyze the publication, countries, disciplines, and keywords of CI.Results:A total of 932 Chinese and 2 319 English hits were included. The publication of CI had shown an increasing trend both domestically and internationally. Sociology and rehabilitation were the main disciplines in CI domestically and internationally, respectively. Domestically, CI research primarily focused on the community integration of migrant workers, floating populations, and accompanying family members. Internationally, the emphasis was on the integration of individuals with disabilities and other special groups. Future research directions in China were likely to focus on group work, the elderly, and relocated populations. Internationally, CI research would continue to concentrate on CI experiences and intervention methods for individuals with disabilities and special populations.Conclusion:CI is increasingly gaining attention both domestically and internationally. However, domestic research remains insufficient and needs to be expanded through more empirical studies in various vertical subfields. Future domestic scholars should continue to focus on CI of the elderly and engage in interdisciplinary research.
