Objective: To examine the prevalence of e-cigarette use and associated factors among primary and secondary school students in Pudong New Area, Shanghai, and to explore the pathways linking harm perception of e-cigarettes, interpersonal social influence, and attitudes toward e-cigarette use with experimentation behavior, in order to provide scientific basis for further optimizing the prevention and control strategies of e-cigarette among adolescents. Methods: From September to October 2025, a multi stage cluster random sampling method was used to select 5 144 primary and secondary school students aged 8-19 years from 47 primary and secondary schools in Pudong New Area, Shanghai, to conduct an anonymous questionnaire survey. The questionnaire collected information on e-cigarette use, harm perception of e-cigarette, interpersonal social influence, and attitudes toward e-cigarette use. The Chi-square test was applied to analyze the differences in cigarette and e-cigarette use behavior among primary and secondary school students with different demographic characteristics. Structural equation modeling (SEM) was constructed using Mplus 8.3 software, and the bootstrap method was utilized to test the mediating effects. Results: The reported rates of cigarette experimentation, e-cigarette experimentation, and current e-cigarette use among primary and secondary school students were 1.85%, 2.10%, and 0.70%, respectively. Higher reporting rates of e-cigarette experimentation were observed among boys (2.82%), secondary school students aged 16-19 (3.39%), senior high school students (3.05%), and those with weekly pocket money >100 yuan ( 6.11% ) ( χ 2=11.67, 8.61, 8.00, 54.18, all P <0.05). Structural pathway analysis results demonstrated that e-cigarette harm perception positively predicted interpersonal social influence ( β =0.61) and e-cigarette use attitude ( β = 0.53 ), and interpersonal social influence ( β =0.65) and e-cigarette use attitude ( β =0.25) further promoted e-cigarette experimentation behavior among primary and secondary school students (all P <0.01), with interpersonal social influence playing a major mediating role (indirect effect=0.40). Conclusions E-cigarette experimentation behavior among primary and secondary school students in Pudong New Area is jointly influenced by multiple psychosocial factors. Intervention strategies should strengthen interpersonal social factors such as family and peers on the basis of health education, thereby constructing a comprehensive prevention and control strategy for e-cigarette use among primary and secondary school students.

Objective To construct a risk prediction model for post-stroke dysphagia(PSD)based on clinical and laboratory indicators of elderly stroke patients with explainable machine learning.Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on 3994 stroke patients hospitalized in Depart-ment of Neurology of First Medical Center of Chinese PLA General Hospital from October 2010 to December 2021.Among them,the 1390 cases admitted during January 2019 and December 2021 were assigned into an external validation set,and the 2604 cases admitted during October 2010 to January 2019 were into a training group.Those from the training group were further divided into a training set(1823 cases)and an internal validation set(781 cases)in a 7∶3 ratio,and also grouped into a PSD subgroup(773 cases)and a non-PSD group(1831 cases).With occurrence of swallowing difficulties as an endpoint,risk prediction models were constructed using random for-est(RF),eXtreme Gradient Boosting(XGBoost),Support Vector Machine(SVM),and logistic regression.ROC curve analysis was employed to evaluate the performance of our models.After the optimal model was selected,SHAP was employed to interpret feature contributions.Results There were significant differences in muscle strength,right/left-sided stroke,and area of brain in-jury between the PSD and the non-PSD groups(P＜0.01).The PSD group had obviously larger proportions of hypertension,diabetes,and drinking history,increased neutrophil counts,and de-creased levels of potassium and albumin when compared with the non-PSD group(P＜0.05,P＜0.01).Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that age,drinking history,diabetes,hyper-tension,muscle strength grade,area of brain injury,hemispheric stroke,neutrophil count,and al-bumin and potassium levels were risk factors for PSD(P＜0.05,P＜0.01).The external validation results showed that the area under curve value of the RF model,XGBoost model,SVM model,and our logistic model was 0.883,0.902,0.877,and 0.868,respectively.The distribution of SHAP value showed that drinking history,hypertension and diabetes were positively correlated with PSD risk;Muscle strength was negatively correlated with the risk;Age growth was positively correlated with the risk;Subtentorial lesions showed stronger predictive efficacy than supratentorial lesions and entire lesions;The bilateral and right-sided stroke had higher risk for PSD than the left-sided stroke.Conclusion The model based on the XGBoost model shows best performance in predicting the risk for swallowing disorders in elderly patients after stroke.

Adenoid cystic carcinoma(ACC)of the cervix is a rare and highly aggressive subtype of cervical cancer,accounting for less than 1%of all cervical cancer cases.ACC predominantly affects postmenopausal women over the age of 60,with postmenopausal vaginal bleeding being the most common symptom.Diagnosis of ACC primarily relies on histopathological examination and immunohistochemical analysis.Although there is currently no standard treatment protocol,surgical resection combined with radiotherapy or concurrent chemoradiotherapy is considered to be an effective approach.However,the effectiveness is limited,particularly in advanced cases,which generally have a poor prognosis.The treatment and prognosis of ACC are closely related to tumor staging,perineural invasion,and margin status.This paper discusses the clinical data and follow-up of six ACC patients treated at our institution,and goes through a literature review,examines its clinical features and treatment outcomes,underscores the critical importance of early diagnosis and individualized treatment.

Objective To investigate the relationship between prolactin and mild cognitive impairment(MCI)in postmenopausal women with type 2 diabetes mellitus(T2DM).Methods A total of 319 postmenopausal women with T2DM who were hospitalized in the Department of Endocrinology,Drum Tower Hospital,Affiliated Hospital of Medical School,Nanjing University were enrolled in this study from August 2016 to October 2023.All the patients were divided into two groups according whether they had MCI:T2DM group(n=161)and MCI group(n=158).Differences in clinical characteristics were compared between the two groups.Pearson correlation was used to analyze the correlation between sex hormones and cognitive domains,and Logistic regression analysis was used to evaluate the influencing factors for MCI development.Results Serum prolactin levels were significantly lower in the MCI group than in the T2DM group[(5.5±2.1)vs(7.2±2.9)μg/L,P<0.05].Serum prolactin level was positively correlated with mini-mental state examination score,Montreal cognitive assessment score,immediate memory score,visuopatial constructional score,attention score and hippocampal volume(P<0.05),and negatively correlated with processing speed test(time)and executive function test(time)(P<0.05).Logistic regression analysis demonstrated that serum prolactin level was an influencing factor for the risk of MCI in postmenopausal women with T2DM(OR 0.715,95%CI 0.605～0.845,P<0.01).Conclusions The decrease of serum prolactin level is associated with an increased risk of MCI in postmenopausal women with T2DM.
