ObjectiveTranscranial magneto-acoustic stimulation (TMAS) is an emerging non-invasive neuromodulation technique that may provide a novel non-pharmacological intervention strategy for Parkinson's disease (PD). PD is characterized by the progressive degeneration of dopaminergic neurons in the substantia nigra pars compacta (SNc), leading to motor impairments such as bradykinesia, tremor, and rigidity. Increasing evidence indicates that mitochondrial dysfunction and impaired mitochondrial quality control are central mechanisms underlying dopaminergic neuronal loss. In particular, abnormalities in mitophagy and mitochondrial fission-fusion balance contribute substantially to oxidative stress, energy metabolic failure, and neuronal injury. At present, most clinical treatments for PD mainly alleviate symptoms but do not effectively halt disease progression. Therefore, exploring new interventions targeting the core pathological mechanisms is of considerable significance. This study aims to investigate whether TMAS can improve neural damage and motor dysfunction in PD mice by regulating mitophagy and the fission/fusion dynamic balance, thereby providing theoretical and experimental support for its application in PD treatment. MethodsMale C57BL/6 mice were used in this study. A PD model was established by intraperitoneal injection of 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine (MPTP) for 7 consecutive days. After model induction, mice in the intervention group received TMAS once daily for 14 consecutive days, whereas the corresponding control group received sham stimulation. The stimulation target was positioned over the primary motor cortex (M1). Motor performance was evaluated using the pole test and the open-field test. To verify the activation effect of TMAS on the target cortical region, c-Fos immunohistochemistry was performed in the M1. To assess nigral dopaminergic neuronal injury, tyrosine hydroxylase (TH) immunohistochemistry was used to quantify TH-positive neurons in the SNc. Mitochondrial function was evaluated by measuring reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels and adenosine triphosphate (ATP) content in the SNc. Western blot was further performed to determine the expression of mitophagy-related proteins, including PINK1, Parkin, LC3-II, and p62, as well as mitochondrial dynamics-related proteins, including Drp1 and Opa1. ResultsTMAS significantly increased the number of c-Fos-positive cells in M1 (P<0.000 1), indicating effective activation of neurons in the targeted cortical region. Compared with the control group, MPTP-treated mice exhibited marked motor dysfunction, including a significant reduction in total distance traveled in the open-field test (P<0.000 1) and mean speed (P=0.000 1), as well as significant prolongation of turn time and total climbing time in the pole test (P<0.000 1). These behavioral impairments were accompanied by a substantial loss of TH-positive dopaminergic neurons in the SNc, whereas TMAS significantly increased TH-positive neuron survival (P<0.000 1). In parallel, MPTP induced a pronounced increase in ROS levels and a significant reduction in ATP content, indicating severe mitochondrial dysfunction and energy metabolism impairment (P<0.01). TMAS treatment significantly improved motor performance, as reflected by the reversal of MPTP-induced impairment in the open-field and pole tests, and significantly reduced ROS accumulation (P<0.01) while restoring ATP production (P<0.001). At the molecular level, MPTP markedly downregulated PINK1 and Parkin, decreased p62 expression, increased LC3-II accumulation, elevated Drp1 expression, and reduced Opa1 expression, whereas TMAS significantly reversed these abnormalities, suggesting restoration of mitophagy-related mitochondrial quality control and re-establishment of mitochondrial fission-fusion balance. Collectively, these findings indicate that TMAS ameliorates MPTP-induced neurotoxicity and restores mitochondrial homeostasis and energy metabolism. ConclusionTMAS effectively attenuates neural damage and improves motor dysfunction in MPTP-induced PD mice. Its neuroprotective effects are closely associated with multidimensional regulation of the mitochondrial quality control system, including restoration of PINK1/Parkin-mediated mitophagy and rebalancing of Drp1/Opa1-related mitochondrial dynamics. Rather than acting only as a symptomatic neuromodulatory intervention, TMAS may influence a key pathological axis of PD by improving mitochondrial homeostasis in SNc and protecting nigral dopaminergic neurons. These findings provide experimental evidence supporting TMAS as a promising non-invasive physical intervention for PD.

Radar-based non-contact health monitoring technology (RBNHMT) has emerged as a transformative paradigm in continuous health sensing, enabling non-invasive and continuous monitoring of physiological parameters and behavioral patterns by transmitting electromagnetic waves, analyzing the reflected signals, and detecting subtle bodily movements—ranging from millimeter-scale chest wall displacements due to respiration to micro-scale vibrations associated with cardiac activity—ultimately transforming them into quantifiable health data. Distinguished by its non-contact operation, inherent privacy preservation, and adaptability to diverse scenarios, RBNHMT exhibits stronger resistance to environmental interference than conventional contact-based monitoring, and has solidified its position as a prominent and dynamic research focus in the field of non-contact health monitoring. Currently, significant and multifaceted progress has been made across several key areas. In human activity recognition (HAR), systems leveraging micro-Doppler signatures or point cloud sequences achieve high-precision detection of gait, gestures, and fall events, with state-of-the-art deep learning-based models achieving accuracy rates exceeding 99% in controlled experimental settings. For vital sign and sleep monitoring, it not only tracks respiratory and heart rates continuously but also extracts clinically relevant metrics such as heart rate variability (HRV) for autonomic nervous system assessment and estimates blood pressure through indirect methods like pulse transit time analysis, while maintaining robustness in dynamic settings through advanced motion compensation algorithms. In sleep monitoring, it further enables sleep posture classification and apnea event detection. In emotion and stress recognition, it provides a non-intrusive approach for psychological assessment by analyzing autonomic-response physiological signal patterns or behavioral features. Furthermore, its applications in auxiliary medical diagnosis have expanded to promising interdisciplinary areas such as non-contact heart sound auscultation, radar-based screening for obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), and emerging research into breast cancer detection using microwave and millimeter-wave imaging techniques. However, several challenges impede its practical deployment. Signal quality is significantly compromised by multipath interference in complex indoor environments and clutter from static objects, and by motion artifacts in dynamic scenarios where gross body movements obscure the subtle physiological signals. Algorithmically, separating signals from multiple targets in close proximity and calibrating for substantial individual physiological differences, such as body habitus, baseline vital signs, remain difficult and limit generalizability. Hardware design also faces the challenge of balancing power consumption, cost, integration, and performance, often requiring trade-offs that constrain miniaturization, battery life, or measurement sensitivity. Future advancement, therefore, requires collaborative and targeted innovation across multiple dimensions. Algorithmically, developing adaptive signal processing models based on emerging paradigms such as few-shot learning (for user-specific calibration with minimal data) and reinforcement learning (for dynamic noise suppression) is essential. At the hardware level, highly integrated radar SoCs with embedded processing capabilities and advanced packaging technologies are crucial for achieving the dual goals of device miniaturization and cost reduction without sacrificing performance. At the system level, fusing radar data with complementary modalities such as infrared and acoustic sensing can create a synergistic, multi-modal framework that significantly enhances perceptual robustness and reliability in complex, real-world environments. This review provides a comprehensive synthesis that systematically summarizes the relevant theoretical foundations and application progress, and offers an in-depth analysis of the current technical bottlenecks. It aims to provide a clear development path and a foundational academic reference for the in-depth integration and practical application of RBNHMT in critical scenarios including rehabilitation engineering, smart elderly care, in-vehicle health monitoring, and beyond, thereby offering innovative technical support for the vision of universal, proactive, and personalized health management.

Objective The aim of the study is to analyze the incidence patterns and epidemiological characteristics of parasitic and vector-borne diseases in the Minhang and Jinshan districts of Shanghai, and provide evidence-based information for optimizing prevention and control measures. Methods We collected information from epidemic reports and epidemiological investigation forms for cases of parasitic and vector-borne diseases from 2005 to 2024 in Shanghai's Minhang and Jinshan districts. Descriptive epidemiological method were adopted to conduct a comparative analysis of incidence trends, epidemic characteristics, and infection sources. Results A total of 229 cases in 7 categories were reported between 2005 and 2024, with an average annual incidence rate of 0.36/100 000. The average annual incidence rate in Minhang District was significantly higher than that in Jinshan District. The most prevalent diseases were malaria and dengue fever, followed by Japanese encephalitis. Monthly case reports were available, predominantly from June to October, with a peak in July-August. A statistically significant difference was observed between the two districts in case distribution during June-October (P＜0.001), whereas no significant difference was found for July-August (P=0.331). The majority of cases were young men (111/229,48.47%), aged 20-39 years. Migrant workers/farmers constituted the largest occupational group (55/229, 24.02%). Registered residents of other provinces and cities (147/229,64.19%), and the main source of infection was overseas importation (112/229,48.91%). There were no statistically significant differences in gender and household-registration composition between the two districts (P＞0.05). Significant differences existed in age, occupation, and source of infection (P＜0.05). The imported diseases were malaria and dengue fever, with Africa and Southeast Asia being the primary source locations. Malaria was the predominant disease imported from other provinces and cities, with cases having been imported from abroad since 2012. Local infections were mainly Japanese encephalitis, followed by malaria (with the last local case reported in 2010). Cases between 2005 and 2009 were predominantly imported from other provinces and cities. The proportion of cases imported from abroad increased sharply after 2010, particularly in Minhang District. Local infections sometimes arise in Jinshan District, with Japanese encephalitis serving as the primary type. Conclusions Incidence rates of parasitic and vector-borne diseases in Minhang and Jinshan districts have generally remained low. To further reduce this disease burden, it will be necessary to strengthen joint measures for prevention and control, eliminate the environmental risk factors of vector organisms, enhance monitoring and precise control of the environment and inbound personnel to prevent the occurrence and transmission of parasitic and vector-borne diseases.

The incidence rate of suspected adverse events following immunization (AEFI) after single administration of pentavalent recombinant rotavirus attenuated live vaccine (RV5) in Chaoyang District, Beijing City from 2019 to 2021 was 362.3 per 100 000 doses. The incidence rate of AEFI after simultaneous administration with oral polio vaccine (OPV), inactivated polio vaccine (IPV), hepatitis B vaccine (HBV), Haemophilus influenzae type b (Hib), and pneumococcal conjugate vaccine 13-valent (PCV13) was 239.3 per 100 000, 643.4 per 100 000, 346.8 per 100 000, 438.1 per 100 000, and 434.0 per 100 000, respectively. The specific incidence rates for common AEFI symptoms such as fever, local allergic rash, irritability, and vomiting under different vaccination regimens were as follows: RV5 alone (fever: 88.3 per 100 000, rash: 9.1 per 100 000, irritability: 100.5 per 100 000, vomiting: 83.3 per 100 000), RV5 and IPV simultaneous administration (fever: 239.4 per 100 000, rash: 104.7 per 100 000, irritability: 134.7 per 100 000, vomiting: 89.8 per 100 000), RV5 and OPV simultaneous administration (fever: 119.6 per 100 000, rash: 32.6 per 100 000, irritability: 32.6 per 100 000, vomiting: 32.6 per 100 000), RV5 and HBV simultaneous administration (fever: 111.0 per 100 000, rash: 69.4 per 100 000, irritability: 83.2 per 100 000, vomiting: 41.6 per 100 000), RV5 and Hib simultaneous administration (fever: 159.3 per 100 000, rash: 238.9 per 100 000, irritability: 0 per 100 000, vomiting: 39.8 per 100 000), and RV5 and PCV13 simultaneous administration (fever: 142.8 per 100 000, rash: 98.0 per 100 000, irritability: 126.0 per 100 000, vomiting: 25.2 per 100 000).

Objective:To review drug clinical trial development in Shaanxi province and to understand the effectiveness of the implementation of a record system in promoting drug clinical trial development.Methods:Based on the data of drug clinical trials in Shaanxi province released on the official website of the National Medical Products Administration, this study made a statistical analysis of the number of drug clinical trial institutions, regional distribution, registered majors and principal investigators, and the development of drug clinical trial projects.Results:After implementing drug clinical trial institution registration, the drug clinical trial institutions in Shaanxi Province developed rapidly, increasing from 20 in the qualification period to 46, with a growth rate of 130%. A total of 113 specialties were recorded, of which the highest number of professional records were for endocrinology and oncology. 46 institutions recorded 1, 094 principal investigators and participated in 3803 drug clinical trial projects. However, only 8 institutions had undertaken drug clinical trial projects as group leaders.Conclusions:The number of drug clinical trial institutions in Shaanxi province increased significantly, reflecting a good overall development status. However, issues still exist, such as unbalanced development of clinical trial resources within the region, insufficient researchers with the ability to conduct clinical trials, relatively concentrated drug clinical trial projects, and lack of experience in undertaking clinical trials as a group leader.

Objective:To explore the risk factors of pulmonary infection in patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) after thoracoscopic lobectomy and evaluate their predictive value.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of 152 NSCLC patients who underwent thoracoscopic lobectomy at the Central Hospital of Tongchuan Mining Bureau in Shaanxi Province from May 2021 to May 2024. Among them, 45 cases were diagnosed with pulmonary infection by postoperative lung CT examination (postoperative infection group), while the remaining 107 cases did not develop pulmonary infection (non infection group). The levels of serum procalcitonin, serum amyloid A (SAA), and soluble triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cell-1 (sTREM-1) between two groups of patients before and after surgery were compared, and conduct a multivariate logistic regression analysis on the risk factors of pulmonary infection in NSCLC patients undergoing thoracoscopic lobectomy was conducted to evaluate the predictive value of each indicator for pulmonary infection in NSCLC patients after thoracoscopic lobectomy. The normally distributed quantitative data was represented by xˉ± s. Independent sample t-test was used for comparison between two groups, and paired t-test was used for comparison before and after treatment; The count data was presented as an example (%), and the comparison between groups was conducted using the chi square test. The risk factors for postoperative pulmonary infection in NSCLC patients were analyzed using multiple logistic regression analysis. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were plotted to analyze the predictive value of each indicator for pulmonary infection after thoracoscopic lobectomy. Results:No difference were found in the levels of serum procalcitonin, SAA, and sTREM-1 between two groups of patients before surgery(all P>0.05); 24 hours after surgery, the levels of serum procalcitonin, SAA, and sTREM-1 in both groups of patients were higher than before surgery [Postoperative infection group: (1.16±0.29) μg/L compared to (0.34±0.09) μg/L, (10.2±1.8) mg/L compared to (7.3±0.9) mg/L, (20.3±4.8) ng/L compared to (8.0±1.2) ng/L, t-values were 20.70, 9.70, and 16.89, respectively, all P<0.001; The uninfected group (0.84±0.14) μg/L compared to (0.32±0.08) μg/L, (8.2±1.1) mg/L compared to (7.4±0.9) mg/L, and (13.5±6.3) ng/L compared to (8.1±1.2) ng/L, with t-values of 33.36, 6.13, and 8.73, respectively, all P<0.001, and the infected group was higher than the uninfected group ( t-values of 9.18, 8.32, and 6.52, respectively, all P<0.001). The results of multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that serum procalcitonin, SAA, and sTREM-1 levels at 24 hours after surgery were all risk factors for pulmonary infection in NSCLC patients undergoing thoracoscopic lobectomy (odds ratios of 2.40, 1.61, 1.60, 95% confidence intervals: 1.14~5.04, 1.09~2.38, 1.13~2.26, P values of 0.021, 0.017, 0.009, respectively). The area under curve(AUC) of serum procalcitonin, SAA, and sTREM-1 predicting pulmonary infection after thoracoscopic lobectomy in NSCLC patients 24 hours after surgery were 0.84, 0.74, and 0.79, respectively, with cutoff values of 1.03 μg/L, 9.74 mg/L, and 16.85 ng/L, respectively. Conclusions:The levels of serum procalcitonin, SAA, and sTREM-1 24 hours after surgery are all risk factors for pulmonary infection in NSCLC patients undergoing thoracoscopic lobectomy, and all three had a high predictive value for postoperative pulmonary infection.

A method for determination and targeted screening of diflorasone components in health products using ultra performance liquid chromatography-quadrupole time of flight mass spectrometry(UPLC-Q-TOF/MS)was established.Four representative diflorasone and esters(diflorasone,diflorasone diacetate,diflorasone-17-propionate,and diflorasone-21-propionate)were selected to optimize the pretreatment conditions,and 10 mL of extraction solvent dosage,15 min of extraction time and 5 g of salting-out agent as the optimal conditions were selected by response surface methodology.The results showed that the four analytes exhibited good linearity within the concentration range of 2.0?100 μg/L with the chromatographic peak area,and the correlation coefficients(R2)were all greater than 0.9990,while the results of recovery and relative standard deviation could satisfy the requirements of determination.The common characteristic ions of diflorasone and esters werem/z121 andm/z335,and their specific structures were obtained by analyzing the cleavage pathway based on the optimized determination conditions.A targeted screening method for other esters of diflorasone based on characteristic ions guidance strategy was established.This method had many advantages such as high efficiency,high sensitivity and good reproducibility,and could be used for targeted screening of diflorasone and esters in health products.The developed characteristic ion guided strategy could be employed to construct mass spectral databases for various glucocorticoids,enabling comprehensive targeted screening across a broad range of compounds.
