Objective To study the effect of practicing traditional Chinese medicine(TCM)guidance on the health in weightless conditions based on the examination results of the TCM diagnostic instrument.Methods 6 subjects in weightless conditions practiced TCM guidance for 14 consecutive days,once a day for 8 minutes each time.The Digital TCM Diagnostic Instrument and TCM Syndrome Diagnosis Scale were used to collect information before and after their practice of TCM guidance through diagnostic methods of observation,palpation and inquiry according to TCM theory.The data such as the degree of virtual-reality,pulse rate,and characteristic parameters of pulse diagrams h3/h1,h4/h1,t1,h1/t1 were processed and analyzed,and the changes before and after the practice were compared.Results Compared with before the practice,the degree of deficiency syndrome was significantly reduced after practicing TCM guidance(P<0.05),the pulse rate was significantly decreased(P<0.01),and the pulse diagnosis parameters h3/h1 and t1 were significantly decreased(P<0.05),while h4/h1 and h1/t1 showed no significant changes.Conclusion Practicing TCM guidance in weightless conditions is helpful for enhance cardiovascular regulatory function,correcting symptom bias,adjusting the body's balance state,and has a positive effect on health.

Objective:To explore the clinical effects of combined surgical and high-frequency electro-acupuncture treatment for aesthetic restoration in children with eyelid split nevus.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on the medical records of children treated for eyelid split nevus in the Plastic Surgery Department of the First Affiliated Hospital of Army Medical University from January 2019 to December 2023. All cases underwent combined surgical excision and high-frequency electro-acupuncture vaporization. Surgical removal was used for nevi with significant pigmentation and deep involvement, and high-frequency electro-acupuncture was simultaneously applied to vaporize residual superficial pigmentation layer by layer based on the depth of the pigmentation. The wounds were repaired using either direct suturing or local flap transfer. Postoperative management included the application of growth factors and anti-scar treatments. Postoperative healing, adverse effects, and pigment clearance rate (categorized as healed, significant effect, improved, or ineffective) were observed by comparsons of the pre-treatment and the last follow-up photographs. Eyelid function, appearance, and scar hypertrophy were assessed during follow-up, and family satisfaction (categorized as very satisfied, satisfied, or dissatisfied) was surveyed via telephone.Results:Five children were included, with one male and four females aged between 2 and 10 years (average 7 years). Pigment areas ranged from 0.3 cm × 0.5 cm to 1.7 cm × 1.1 cm, with surgical excision areas from 0.3 cm × 0.4 cm to 1.5 cm × 1.1 cm. All children had good wound healing without complications such as infection, flap ischemic necrosis, wound dehiscence or bleeding. The pigment clearance rate was over 90%, achieving a healed effect. During the follow-up of 14 to 48 months (average 24.2 months), all patients had normal eyelid function without difficulties in opening or closing the eyes, or epiphora. The eyelid appearance was satisfactory without asymmetry, ptosis, ectropion or hypertrophic scars. The aesthetic outcomes and functionality of the eyelids were ideal, and satisfaction was generally rated as very satisfied.Conclusion:Surgical removal combined with high-frequency electro-acupuncture is beneficial for preserving aesthetic appearance while pigmentation in children with eyelid split nevus is removed, offering a new treatment option.

Objective The ammonia level in air and heavy metals in drinking water were explored in a cynomolgus monkey feedlot. Methods Air ammonia from different communities and feeding patterns of cynomolgus monkeys were collected at three time-points per day and determined by Nessler's reagent spectrophotometry. Inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry was applied to detect the level of heavy metals in drinking water from 5 different sampling sites in the feedlot,incluing the outlet of underground water,the water tank,both monkey cages equipped with PVC or iron pipes and sewage lagoon,respectively. Results Air ammonia levels in quarantine inspection flock cages(0.59 ± 0.03 mg/m3)were significantly higher than in the cages of both reproductive flock(0.34 ± 0.03 mg/m3)and sale flock(0.27 ± 0.04 mg/m3). The ammonia level in air in different feeding patterns ranks as following:cage rearing of quarantine inspection flock(0.59 ± 0.03 mg/m3)>cage rearing of reproductive flock(0.48 ± 0.02 mg/m3)>captive bleeding of sale flock(0.30 ± 0.02 mg/m3)>cage rearing of sale flock(0.25 ± 0.01 mg/m3)> captive bleeding of reproductive flock(0.22 ± 0.02 mg/m3). The air ammonia concentrations of both former flocks were statistically higher than the latter three flocks. The highest air ammonia level among different flocks and feeding patterns occurred in the morning, before waste discharge clean-up. The iron concentration in drinking water in the cages equipped with iron pipes was higher than Chinese drinking water standard. Conclusions The air ammonia level was lower than the Chinese air quality standard. The iron concentration in drinking water in the cages equipped with iron pipes was higher than the Chinese drinking water standard.

Objective: To compare and analyze the epidemiological characteristics of hospitalized elderly, young and middle-aged patients with severe burn in recent years, so as to provide reference for the prevention and treatment of elderly patients with severe burn. Methods: Relying on the entry system of epidemiological case data and biological sample of severe burn from multicenter in clinic, medical records of patients with severe burn, aged above 18, hospitalized in 8 burn wards from January 2012 to December 2015 were collected. Six hundred and fifteen patients who were more than 18 years old and less than or equal to 65 years old were included in young and middle-aged group (YM). Eighty-two patients aged more than 65 years old were included in elderly group (E). Data of age, gender, residence, education level, cause of injury, location of injury, season of injury, total burn area, occurrence and area of full-thickness burn injury, wound site, inhalation injury incidence and severity, post burn admission time, proportion of delayed resuscitation, proportion of escharectomy or tangential excision and skin grafting, preinjury systemic disease, system complication during hospitalization, length of hospital stay, outcome of treatment, and reason of abandoning treatment of patients were analyzed. Data were processed with chi-square test and Mann-Whitney U test. The odds ratios of preinjury systemic disease, system complication during hospitalization, and adverse outcome of patients in group YM were compared with those in group E. Results: (1) The majority of patients in the two groups were male, but the proportion of male patients in group YM was higher. There was statistically significant difference in gender distribution of patients between the two groups (χ²=18.727, P<0.001). The majority of patients in the two groups were from rural areas, but the proportion of rural patients in group E was higher. There was statistically significant difference in residence distribution of patients between the two groups (χ²=9.306, P=0.002). Patients in group YM mainly had secondary education, while patients in group E mainly had primary education. There was statistically significant difference in distribution of education level of patients between the two groups (χ²=146.797, P<0.001). (2) The most common causes of injury of patients in the two groups were both flame, but the proportion of patients with flame burn injury in group E was higher. There was statistically significant difference in distribution of cause of injury of patients between the two groups (χ²=25.063, P<0.001). The main locations of injury of patients in groups YM and E were respectively public place and private residence. There was statistically significant difference in location distribution of injury of patients between the two groups (χ²=46.313, P<0.001). The main seasons of injury of patients in groups YM and E were respectively summer and winter. There was statistically significant difference in season distribution of patients between the two groups (χ²=23.143, P<0.001). There was statistically significant difference in distribution of total burn area of patients between the two groups (χ²=25.799, P=0.002). The occurrences of full-thickness burn injury of patients in the two groups were similar (χ²=2.685, P=0.101), while there was statistically significant difference in area of full-thickness burn injury of patients between the two groups (χ²=26.702, P=0.002). There was no statistically significant difference in distribution of wound site of patients between the two groups (χ²=3.954, P=0.785). There were no statistically significant differences in incidence and severity distribution of inhalation injury of patients between the two groups (with χ² values respectively 0.425 and 0.672, P values above 0.05). (3) There was statistically significant difference in distribution of admission time of patients between the two groups (χ²=6.632, P=0.036), but there was no statistically significant difference in proportion of delayed resuscitation of patients between the two groups (χ²=1.261, P=0.261). The proportion of escharectomy or tangential excision and skin grafting of patients in group YM was 72.0% (443/615), which was significantly higher than 35.4% (29/82) of group E (χ²=44.498, P<0.001). The incidence of preinjury systemic disease of patients in group YM was 13.2% (81/615), which was significantly lower than 61.0% (50/82) of group E (χ²=108.337, P<0.001). The risk of preinjury systemic disease of patients in group E was 10.30 times of that of patients in group YM [with 95% confidence interval (CI) of 6.24-17.01, P<0.001]. During hospitalization, 59.8% (49/82) of patients in group E suffered from system complications, which was significantly higher than 36.6% (225/615) of group YM (χ²=16.282, P<0.001). The risk of system complication of patients in group E was 2.57 times of patients in group YM (with 95% CI of 1.61-4.12, P<0.001). The length of hospital stay of patients in group E was significantly shorter than that of group YM (U=36 735, P<0.001). There was statistically significant difference in treatment outcome of patients between the two groups (χ²=106.251, P<0.001). The risk of adverse outcome of patients in group E was 7.52 times of group YM (with 95% CI of 4.40-12.88, χ²=67.709, P<0.001). The proportion of abandoning treatment of patients in group E was significantly higher than that of group YM (χ²=150.670, P<0.001). The risk of abandoning treatment of patients in group E was 15.86 times of that of group YM (with 95% CI of 9.36-26.88, P<0.001). There was no statistically significant difference in distribution of reason of abandoning treatment of patients between the two groups (χ²=4.178, P=0.243). Conclusions There were significant differences in the epidemiological characteristics of patients in groups E and YM. In elderly burn patients, the proportion of rural population was higher and the education level was lower. Flame burn was common and burns mostly occurred in private residences and in winter. The total burn area was slightly lower but the area of full-thickness burn injury was larger. The length of hospital stay was shorter and the proportion of surgical treatment was lower. The incidences of preinjury systemic disease and system complication during hospitalization were higher, and therefore the risks of adverse outcome and abandoning treatment were higher.

Objective To analyze the clinical characteristics of chronic low back pain in flying personnel and to provide evidences for the health intervention to the disease.Methods The physical examination information of the flying personnel who were recuperating in Air Force Hangzhou Aviation Medicine Appraisal and Training Center was collected including age,type of plane,height,weight,and vital capacity.Subjects were divided into case group (with low back pain) and control group (without low back pain).The data were analyzed by independent-samples t-test or Chi-squared test for comparing the difference.Results Two hundred and ninety eight flying personnel were included for analyzing.There were 77 subjects in case group,and 221 subjects were in control group.The average age of the flying personnel of case group was significantly higher than that of control group (t=3.327,P＜0.01).The constituent ratio of the flying personnel older than 35yr in case group(58.4 ％) was higher than that in control group.The difference of age constituent ratio between two groups was significant (x2 =13.698,P＜0.01).The average body mass index of the flying personnel in case group was slightly higher than that in control group but no statistical significance.The difference of constituent ratio in type of plane between two groups was significant (x2 =15.354,P＜0.01).Most flying personnel(58.8 ％) in case group worked for transporter.The helicopter flying personnel took the least (7.8％).However,there was no significant difference on flying hours between two groups.The vital capacity/weight ratio of the flying personnel in case group[(64.09±11.31)ml/kg] was significantly lower than that in control group[(69.00±10.08)ml/kg] (t=3.580,P＜0.01).Conclusions Age is an important risk factor of chronic low back pain in flying personnel population.The incidence of low back pain in the flying personnel of transporter is higher than that of other type of aircrafts.The significantly decreased vital capacity/weight ratio is an important clinical character for the flying personnel with low back pain.

This study investigated the expression and clinicopathological significance of CD9 in gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST). Immunohistochemistry staining for CD9 was performed on tumor tissues from 74 GIST patients. The correlation with clinicopathological features, risk classification and prognosis was analyzed. CD9-positive staining comprised 59.5% (44/74) of the GIST patients. The CD9-positive expression rate of the sample was significantly associated with diameter (P = 0.028), mitotic counts (P = 0.035), risk classification (P = 0.018) and three-year recurrence-free survival (RFS) (P < 0.001). Cox proportional hazards regression (HR = 0.352; P = 0.015) showed that CD9 is an independent factor for post-operative RFS. The subgroup analysis showed that CD9 expression in gastric stromal tumor (GST) is significantly associated with diameter (P = 0.031), risk classification (P = 0.023) and three-year RFS (P = 0.001). The Cox proportional hazards regression (HR = 0.104; P = 0.006) also showed that CD9 is an independent factor for RFS of GST. However, CD9 expression does not have a statistically significant correlation with clinicopathological features, risk classification, and prognosis in non-GST. In conclusion, CD9 expression in GIST appears to be associated with the recurrence and/or metastasis of GIST patients, especially in GST, which may indicate the important role of CD9 in the malignant biological behavior and prognosis of GST.
