Objective: To investigate the relationship between physical development indicators and the onset and progression of myopia among children and adolescents, so as to provide theoretical support for coordinated vision and physical health management. Methods: A prospective cohort study was conducted. In September 2022, 3 102 students from grade one in primary school to grade three in junior high school (five year primary school and four year junior high school) from six schools in Huantai County, Shandong Province, were selected using multistage cluster random sampling method to participate in an epidemiological survey on myopia, with follow up completed in September 2023. Follow up value minus baseline value( d ) was used to assess changes in physical development and vision indicators. Multivariate Logistic regression analysis was used to examine the relationship between physical development indicators and the incidence of myopia. Generalized linear models were established to analyze the relationship between physical development indicators and changes in d spherical equivalent (SE) and d axial length (AL) . Results: Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that, after adjusting for factors such as gender, age, and baseline body mass index, the third ( Q 3)and fourth ( Q 4)quartiles of d height showed increased risks of myopia onset within one year compared to the first quartile( Q 1) ( OR =1.85,95% CI =1.18-2.88; OR =1.74,95% CI =1.09-2.78,both P ＜0.05). Results from the generalized linear model indicated that, after adjusting for confounding factors such as gender, age, and baseline SE, d SE was negatively correlated with d height and d weight in children and adolescents ( β =-0.024, 95% CI =-0.031 to -0.018; β =-0.006, 95% CI =-0.011 to -0.001), d AL was positively correlated with d height and d weight in children and adolescents ( β =0.011, 95% CI =0.008-0.013; β =0.005, 95% CI =0.003-0.007) (all P ＜0.05). Conclusions Physical development indicators in children and adolescents were associated with the onset and progression of myopia. Dynamic monitoring and early intervention of myopia should be strengthened for children and adolescents with rapid height and weight gain to achieve coordinated management of myopia and physical development.

In this study, araucarene diterpenes, characterized by a pimarene skeleton with a variably oxidized side chain at C-13, were investigated. A total of 16 araucarene diterpenoids and their derivatives were isolated from the woods of Agathis dammara, including 11 previously unreported compounds: dammaradione (1), dammarones D-G (2, 5, 14, 15), dammaric acids B-F (8-12), and dammarol (16). The structures of these new compounds were elucidated using high-resolution electrospray ionization mass spectroscopy (HR-ESI-MS) and one-dimensional/two-dimensional (1D/2D) nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), while their absolute configurations were determined through the electronic circular dichroism (ECD) exciton chirality method and Snatzke's method. The hypoglycemic activity of all isolated compounds was evaluated using a transgenic zebrafish model, and a structure-activity relationship (SAR) analysis was conducted. Araucarone (3) and dammaric acid C (9), serving as representative compounds, demonstrated significant hypoglycemic effects on zebrafish. The primary mechanism involves the promotion of pancreatic β cell regeneration and glucose uptake. Specifically, these compounds enhance the differentiation of pancreatic endocrine precursor cells (PEP cells) into β cells in zebrafish.

Objective To explore the biomechanical characteristics of different types of lumbar disc herniation(LDH),and provide a theoretical basis for the clinical classification,diagnosis,and treatment of LDH.Methods A normal lumbar spine model with spinal nerves and four types of LDH models(central type,paracentral type/lateral recess type,intervertebral foramen type,extreme type)were constructed,and the biomechanical characteristics of the intervertebral discs and nerve roots in neutral posture and under six degrees of freedom conditions were analyzed.Results In neutral position,the stress of normal intervertebral disc was carger than that of the herniated intervertebral disc,and the stress ratio of annulus fibrosus and nucleus pulposus in normal model was greater than that of annulus fibrosus and nucleus pulposus in herniated models.In neutral position,the disc stress was mainly concentrated at the incisor between the protrusion and normal part,and recruitment occurred at outer edge of the disc.In flexion and extension position,the stress of the herniated intervertebral disc shifted to the right side.The maximum stress of herniated intervertebral disc appeared during right flexion,and the nerve root stress on the right side was carger than that on the left side.The stress of the herniated intervertebral disc during right rotation was slightly lower than that during right flexion,and the stress of nerve root on the right side was smaller than that on the left side.Conclusions The intervertebral disc is important in maintaining lumbar dynamic and static stability and flexibility.Different positions have an obvious effect the intervertebral disc stress.For patients with LDH,forward bending,flexion of the affected side and large extension should be avoided.Appropriate rotation of the affected side can help relieve the symptoms of nerve root compression.

Objective:To study the effect of anti-melanoma differentiation-related gene 5(MDA5) antibody positive dermatomyositis on the heart of patients.Methods:A total of 71 patients with dermatomyositis diagnosed in Shandong Provincial Hospital Affiliated to Shandong First Medical University from January 1, 2014 to December 31, 2019 were enrolled as the sample group, including anti-MDA5 (+) group( n=28); anti-MDA5(-) groups( n=43). Electrocardiogram and echocardiography were performed in the sample group and the control group. The electrocardiogram, echocardiography and other relevant clinical data of the anti-MDA5 (+) group, anti-MDA5 (-) group and the healthy control group were retrospectively analyzed. The logistic regression analysis model was used to analyze the related factors influencing cardiac involvement in anti-MDA5 (+) patients. Results:In the anti-MDA5 (+) group, more than half of the patients showed elevated levels of lactate dehydrogenase (21/28, 75%) and α-hydroxybutyrate dehydrogenase (16/28, 57%), and 11%(3/28) showed elevated levels of creatine kinase isoenzyme and myoglobin. Compared with the anti-MDA5 (-) group, the white blood cell count in the blood routine of the anti-MDA5 (+) group [5.2 (4.0, 6.5) ×10 9/L vs. 7.8 (5.6, 10.6)×10 9/L, Z=-3.447, P=0.001], creatine kinase [62.5 (29.3, 108.3) U/L vs. 481.0 (179.0, 2 738.0) U/L, Z=-5.895, P<0.001], lactate dehydrogenase [313.0 (239.0, 362.0) U/L vs. 448.0 (291.0, 542.0) U/L, Z=-3.236, P<0.001], creatine kinase isoenzyme [1.9 (1.1, 3.9)ng/ml vs. 17.7 (4.0, 67.2) ng/ml, Z=-4.724, P<0.001], myoglobin [28.2 (20.0, 43.0) ng/ml vs. 307.4 (48.1, 612.2) ng/ml, Z=-4.800, P<0.001]. Electrocardiogram analysis showed that QRS axis [33.5±265.9 vs. 46.9±22.4, t=-2.900, P=0.004], SV1 amplitude [0.7 (0.4, 0.9) vs. 0.9 (0.7, 1.0), Z=-2.148, P=0.023] in anti-MDA5 antibody (+) group in anti-MDA5 antibody (+) group were lower than anti-MDA5 antibody (-) group. QRS duration [84.0 (78.0, 96.5) vs.92.0 (87.8, 100.5), Z=-2.900, P=0.004], QRS axis [33.5±265.9 vs. 46.9±20.4, Z=-2.32, P=0.023] in the anti-MDA5 antibody (+) group were lower than those in healthy control group. Echocardiographic analysis showed that the E peak of anti-MDA5 (+) group [63.0 (52.5, 69.5)] was significantly lower than that of anti-MDA5 (-) group [85.0 (68.0, 108.0), Z=-4.926, P<0.001)]and healthy control group [67.0 (62.8, 80.3), Z=-2.897, P=0.004]. The peak A of anti-MDA5 (+) group [65.5 (56.5, 80.0)] was significantly lower than that of anti-MDA5 (-) group [76.0 (65.0, 90.0), Z=-2.631, P=0.011], but higher than that of healthy control group [55.0(51.0, 66.5), Z=-4.550, P<0.001]. There was no significant difference in echocardiographic findi-ngs among the other groups. All patients with anti-MDA5 (+) dermatomyositis had interstitial lung disease (28/28, 100%). Patients with MDA5 antibody (+++) are more likely to have cardiac involvement than patients with MDA5 antibody (++). Conclusion:The results of relevant examinations in anti-MDA5-DM patients suggest that there is damage to myocardial cells and cardiac function.

Objective To explore the biomechanical safety of applying traditional Chinese orthopedic manipulation therapy after anterior cervical discectomy and fusion(ACDF)surgery,so as to provide a theoretical basis for clinical treatment in biomechanics.Methods Based on CT data,a three-dimensional finite element model of the normal C0-T1 cervical spine was established,and an ACDF postoperative finite element model of the C5-6 segment was constructed on this basis.Cervical spine rotation manipulation was simulated at the C4 and C7 segments of both models,and the von Mises stresses of the vertebral body,bilateral facet joints,intervertebral discs,and internal fixation system under manipulation loading of the C4 and C7 segments in both models were compared and analyzed.Results When the C4 segment was manipulated,the stress on the C5,C6,and C7 vertebral bodies in the ACDF postoperative model decreased by 12.3％,11.5％,and 26.4％,compared to the normal model.The stress on the left facet joints of the C4-5,C5-6,and C6-7 segments decreased by 12.3％,58.8％,and 15.4％,and the stress on the right facet joints decreased by 16.6％,92.1％,and 17.2％.The stress on the C4-5 and C6-7 segments decreased by 13.2％and 4.0％,while the maximum stress of the fusion cage,titanium plate,and screws in the C5-6 segment were 9.349,111.9,and 300.8 MPa.When the C7 segment was manipulated,the stress on the C4,C5,and C6 vertebral bodies in the ACDF postoperative model increased significantly compared to the normal model,especially the C5 vertebral body,with an increase of nearly 18 times.Except for the stress on the left facet joint of the C4-5 segment increased by 57.7％,the stress on the bilateral facet joints of other segments generally decreased,but the stress on the C4-5 and C6-7 segments increased by 43.2％and 21.7％and the stresses on the fusion cage,titanium plate,and screws in the C5-6 segment were 2.926,205.4,and 256.2 MPa.Conclusions The safety of performing manipulation on the upper vertebral body of the fusion segment after ACDF surgery is relatively high,but performing manipulation on the lower vertebral body of the fusion segment may lead to stress concentration and increase the risk of injury.When postoperative conservative treatment is implemented,the manipulation safety and indications should be considered to avoid operations in high-risk areas,and more precise and safe manipulation intervention treatment should be implemented based on the specific postoperative biomechanical state of the patient.

Diarrhea caused by chemotherapy is called chemotherapy-related diarrhea （CRD）. CRD can lead to reduced treatment effectiveness and compliance， affect the long-term outcome of tumor patients， and can be life-threatening in severe cases. In addition to conventional chemotherapy drugs， many molecularly targeted drugs are also associated with CRD， including small molecule epidermal growth factor receptor （EGFR） inhibitors， anti-EGFR monoclonal antibodies， phosphoinositide 3-kinase inhibitors， small molecule inhibitors of vascular endothelial growth factor receptor， BCR-ABL1 and KIT inhibitors， human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 target inhibitors， cyclin-dependent protein kinase inhibitors， antibody-drug conjugates and other molecularly targeted drugs. The occurrence mechanism may be related to the intestinal mucosal injury or enteritis caused by molecularly targeted drugs. The clinical manifestations are increased stool frequency and/or loose imposition， and patients are often associated with excess hyperproduction and/or colic. The incidence of CRD varies with different drugs. Great importance should be attached to collecting medical history and differential diagnosis， actively intervening and conducting dynamic evaluation， strengthening patient education， and timely detecting and preventing the occurrence of intestinal toxicity.

Objective:To observe the clinical efficacy of exercise-based acupuncture in treating ischemic stroke and its effects in improving the patient's motor function and daily living ability. Methods:A total of 106 patients with motor dysfunction due to cerebral infarction were randomized into a trial group and a control group,each consisting of 53 cases.Both groups received conventional rehabilitation;in addition,the control group was given point-toward-point acupuncture at scalp points,and the trial group was offered exercise-based acupuncture,3 times weekly for 4 consecutive weeks.Before treatment,after 2 and 4 weeks of treatment,and at the 2-month follow-up,the Fugl-Meyer assessment(FMA)scale,Lovett scale for muscle strength,modified Ashworth scale(MAS),and activities of daily living(ADL)scale were used to assess the patient's motor function,muscle strength,muscle tension,and daily living ability. Results:After treatment,both groups gained improvements in motor function and daily living ability;after 4-week treatment and at the 2-month follow-up,the trial group had higher FMA and ADL scores than the control group(P<0.05).The MAS score decreased after treatment in both groups;after 2 and 4 weeks of treatment and at the 2-month follow-up,the MAS score was lower in the trial group than in the control group(P<0.05).After the intervention,the Lovett score increased in both groups;after 4 weeks of treatment,the Lovett score was higher in the trial group than in the control group(P<0.05). Conclusion:Based on routine rehabilitation,exercise-based acupuncture and scalp point-toward-point acupuncture both can improve the motor function and daily living ability in ischemic stroke patients;exercise-based acupuncture performs better than scalp point-toward-point acupuncture.
