Executive function(EF) is an advanced cognitive function of the central nervous system, and is closely related to an individual's capacity for daily living and adaptation. Patients with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) typically exhibit significant executive dysfunction. While most existing studies on the executive function of individuals with ADHD are cross-sectional, and little is known about the longitudinal maturation process of related brain structures and functional connectivity patterns. The findings indicate that ADHD patients exhibit differential developmental trajectories in brain structural and functional connectivity compared with typically developing group.Furthermore, there is a lifespan association between abnormal brain network development and ADHD symptoms. This article aims to elucidate the characteristics of executive function deficits in ADHD patients across different developmental stages, examining their relationship with the nervous system’s development from a development perspective.

Objective:To investigate the feasibility of employing high-resolution colon manometry (HRCM) in conjunction with natural orifice specimen extraction surgery (NOSES) during laparoscopic Jinling surgery for the treatment of colonic slow transit constipation (STC).Methods:This study retrospectively analyzed data from nine patients with STC who underwent HRCM preoperative evaluation and subsequently received NOSES Jinling surgery at Tianjin Union Medical Center between October 2016 and March 2023. The general intraoperative conditions and postoperative evaluation indicators were recorded.Results:All 9 patients underwent HRCM examination before surgery. High amplitude propagation contraction (HAPC) was observed in the ascending colon segment of all patients. The occurrence frequency of HAPC was 4.22±1.86 (times/day). The operation time of 9 patients was 200.0 (167.5, 250.0) minutes, the intraoperative blood loss was 100 (50, 150) ml, the postoperative hospitalization time was 13.0 (12.5, 24.0) days, and the first postoperative exhaust time was 3.0 (2.0, 3.5) days, the first postoperative defecation time was 5.0 (4.5, 5.5) days, the first postoperative eating time was 5.0 (5.0, 5.5) days, and the first postoperative time out of bed was 5.0 (5.0, 8.0) days. Notably, none of the 9 patients experienced postoperative complications. The Wexner scores at 6 months [5 (4, 7)], and 12 months [4 (3, 5)] post-surgery were significantly lower than the preoperative score [20 (16, 21)] ( P<0.05). Additionally, the patient assessment of constipation quality of life (PAC-QOL) scores at 6 months [22 (20, 25)], and 12 months [18 (12, 45)] after surgery showed a significant decrease compared to preoperative scores [79 (72, 82)] ( P<0.05). Conclusions:The combination of HRCM preoperative assessment and NOSES Jinling surgery is both safe and feasible for the treatment of slow transit constipation, warranting further development and promotion.

Objective To assess the utility of real-time shear wave elastography(SWE)in diagnosing vascular erectile dysfunction(ED)and to predict the optimal timing for color Doppler flow imaging(CDFI)examination.Methods Patients diagnosed with ED who received intracavernosal injection(ICI)of vasoactive drugs were recruited and categorized based on CDFI findings into three groups:arterial ED(n=17),venous ED(n=33),and non-vascular ED(n=29).SWE technology was utilized to measure the average Young's modulus(E value)of the corpus cavernosum in these patients,both in the flaccid state prior to ICI and at four time points following ICI-induced erection.Subsequently,the differences in E values among the three groups were analyzed.Results There was no significant difference in the E value of the corpus cavernosum in the flaccid state among the arterial,venous,and non-vascular ED groups before ICI(P>0.05).However,the E value in the flaccid state for each group was significantly higher than the mean E values observed at the four time points after ICI-induced erection(P<0.01).Additionally,the mean E values at these four time points post-ICI were also statistically significant(P<0.01).ROC curve analysis revealed that the AUC for diagnosing arterial,venous,and non-vascular ED using the E value after ICI were 0.814,0.770,and 0.711,respectively,with corresponding cutoff values of 9.98,8.16 and 7.06 kPa.The combined use of CDFI and SWE cutoff values following ICI-induced erection significantly shortened the detection time for both arterial and venous ED groups(P<0.01).Conclusions SWE can accurately measure the E value of the corpus cavernosum following erection induced by the vasoactive drug ICI,thereby facilitating the differentia-tion of various types of ED.Additionally,when combined with CDFI,this technique can reduce the time required for examination.

Objective:To evaluate the effect of preoperative oral carbohydrate intake on postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) in elderly patients undergoing gynecological laparoscopic surgery.Methods:This study was a randomized controlled trial. One hundred elderly patients, aged≥65 yr, with a body mass index of 18-30 kg/m 2, with American Society of Anesthesiologists Physical Status classification Ⅰ or Ⅱ, who underwent gynecological laparoscopic surgery at the Baoding First Central Hospital from March 2023 to June 2024, were selected. Stratification was conducted by age (65-74 yr/≥75 yr) using an online randomization tool, and the patients were randomly divided into conventional fasting group (group C) and oral carbohydrate group (group P), with 50 cases in each group. Patients took oral carbohydrate drinks of 4 ml/kg at 2 h before operation, with total amount ≤400 ml in group P, while patients received conventional preoperative fasting protocols in group C. The occurrence and severity of PONV within 48 h postoperatively were observed. The visual analogue scale scores for hunger and thirst, State-Trait Anxiety Inventory scale scores, length of stay in the postanesthesia care unit, duration of hospital stay, time to first flatus, time to first ambulation, and patient′s satisfaction were recorded in the two groups. Results:Compared with group C, the incidence and severity of PONV were significantly decreased within 48 h after surgery, the visual analogue scale scores for hunger and thirst and State-Trait Anxiety Inventory scale scores were significantly decreased after entering the operating room, the length of stay in the postanesthesia care unit, time to first flatus and time to first ambulation were significantly shortened, and the patient′s satisfaction was significantly increased in group P ( P<0.05). Conclusions:Oral carbohydrate intake before operation can effectively reduce the occurrence and severity of PONV and improve the quality of postoperative recovery in elderly patients undergoing gynecological laparoscopic surgery.

Objective:To evaluate the effect of acupuncture on postoperative delirium (POD) in diabetic patients undergoing surgery under general anesthesia.Methods:In this randomized controlled trial, 92 diabetic patients of either sex, aged 30-80 yr, with a body mass index of 18-28 kg/m 2, of American Society of Anesthesiologists Physical Status classification Ⅱ or Ⅲ, scheduled for elective surgery under general anesthesia, were divided into 2 groups ( n=46 each) using a table of random numbers: control group (group C) and acupuncture group (group A). Group A received acupuncture at the Baihui (GV20), Shenting (GV24) and Sishencong (EX-HN1) acupoints before anesthesia. The needles were retained for 30 min, with manual stimulation applied every 10 min for 10 s each time. After 4 stimulations, routine anesthesia was carried out. Group C received routine anesthesia only. Regional cerebral oxygen saturation was recorded on admission to the operating room (T 0), after anesthesia induction (T 1), at the start of surgery (T 2), at the end of surgery (T 3), and immediately after tracheal extubation (T 4). The POD developed within 3 days after surgery was assessed. The occurrence of needle-related adverse effects such as fainting, subcutaneous bleeding, and local paresthesia was recorded. Results:Compared with group C, the incidence of POD was significantly reduced, and the regional cerebral oxygen saturation was increased at T 1, 4 in group A ( P<0.05). Conclusions:Acupuncture can decrease the development of POD in diabetic patients undergoing surgery under general anesthesia, which is related to an increase in regional cerebral oxygen saturation.

Objective To explore the lung protective effect of pressure controlled ventilation-volume guaranteed(PCV-VG)combined with driving pressure(DP)guided lung protective ventilation strategy in patients undergoing thoracoscopic and laparoscopic radical esophagectomy.Methods 70 patients scheduled for elective thoracoscopic and laparoscopic radical esophagectomy were allocated into two groups using a random number table method:Conventional lung protective ventilation strategy group(group C)and DP guided lung protective ventilation strategy under PCV-VG mode group(group P),35 case in each group.Peak airway pressure(Ppeak),plateau pressure(Pplat),dynamic compliance(Cdyn)and DP were compared between the two groups at 5 minutes after intubation(T1),30 min after pneumoperitoneum established(T2),just prior to one lung ventilation(OLV)(T3),30 min after OLV(T4),60 min after OLV(T5)and 15 min from recovery of two lung ventilation(TLV)(T6).The blood pressure(BP),heart rate(HR),arterial partial pressure of oxygen(PaO2),partial pressure of carbon dioxide in arterial blood(PaCO2)and pH were recorded before anesthesia(T0),T2,T3,T4,T5 and T6 time points.The occurrence of postoperative pulmonary complications(PPCs)also recorded.Results Compared with group C,Ppeak in group P at T1,T2,T4,T5 and T6 time points was significantly decreased,and Cdyn was obviously increased,the differences were statistically significant(P＜0.05).At the T1,T4,T5 and T6 time points,the DP was lower in group P compared to group C,and Pplat at T6 time point was lower than that in group C,the differences were statistically significant(P＜0.05).At the time points of T4 and T5,the PaO2 in group P was higher than that in Group C,and the PaCO2 at T6 time point was also higher than that in group C,the differences were statistically significant(P＜0.05).The comparison of PaCO2 at T0,T2,T3,T4 and T5 time points of the two groups,the difference was not statistically significant(P＞0.05).Comparison of pH between the two groups,the difference was not statistically significant at all time points(P＞0.05).The systolic blood pressure(SBP)of group P was higher than that of group C at the T4 time point,and the diastolic blood pressure(DBP)was lower than that of group C at T6 time point,and the differences were statistically significant(P＜0.05);There were no significant differences in SBP and DBP at T0,T2,T3 and T5 time points,and HR at each time point between the two groups(P＞0.05).There was no statistically significant difference in the occurrence of PPCs within 7 d after operation between the two groups(P＞0.05).Conclusion DP guided lung protective ventilation strategy under PCV-VG mode can improve intraoperative respiratory mechanics,and increase oxygenation during OLV in patients undergoing thoracoscopic and laparoscopic radical esophagectomy,but it does not significantly affect the incidence of PPCs within 7 d after operation.It is worthy clinical significant.

BACKGROUND:In orthodontic treatment,full-mouth treatment is usually used to treat single-root severely twisted teeth,and single-tooth treatment is less common.OBJECTIVE:To design a personalized orthodontic device based on biomechanical principles to address the rotation of teeth 11,12,13,21,22,and 23,and evaluate the device's impact on tooth movement using three-dimensional finite element method.METHODS:Based on the biomechanical principle of tooth rotation and movement,a personalized orthodontic device was made by digital design combined with three-dimensional printing,so that the personalized orthodontic device and the tooth formed an anchorage system.The absolute anchorage of the micro-implant was used to precisely control the single-root twisted tooth in the three-dimensional direction.The CBCT data of the maxillary alveolar bone and tooth tissue of a female volunteer were collected.The three-dimensional finite element models of the twisted tooth-periodontal ligament-maxillary bone-personalized orthodontic device were established using Mimics,Geomagic Wrap,SolidWorks,3-matic Research 15.0,and Ansys Workbench software.The equivalent stress distribution characteristics of the personalized orthodontic device,the movement trend of the tooth,and the equivalent stress distribution characteristics of the periodontal ligament were calculated under a thrust of 60 g.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)The maximum equivalent stress observed on the personalized orthodontic device was 47.71 MPa.(2)The initial tooth displacement under the device demonstrated a rotational trend.The peak equivalent stress in the periodontal ligament was concentrated at the neck,while lower stress was observed in the apex region.(3)The safety and feasibility of the personalized orthodontic device designed in this study for severely rotated single-rooted teeth were preliminarily verified through finite element analysis.

Objective:To explore the correlation between intestinal flora disturbance and the diagnosis,treatment of rheumatoid arthritis(RA),and to provide bioinformatics basis for further research on precise targeted intervention of RA.Methods:Genes related to intestinal flora disorders and RA genes were downloaded from disease database.Correlation between the two diseases was analyzed via bioinformatics approach.PPI network was conducted by STRING,Cytoscape and their plug-ins,and key genes were screened.Key genes were mapped into Coremine Medicinal to identify medicinal chemicals and medicinal herbs.Results:A total of 525 genes shared by intestinal flora disorders and RA were obtained through integrated screening of the disease database,and key genes with the highest degree of protein interaction were finally selected,namely IL-6,IL-1β,TNF-α,IL-10,STAT3,STAT1 and RELA.These related tar-geted genes were mainly involved in biological processes such as negative feedback regulation and antigen stimulation,and mediate molecular functions such as lipopolysaccharide receptor binding and NF-κB receptor binding,which are mainly concentrated in the plasma membrane region.KEGG analysis showed that these related genes were mainly involved in classical signaling pathways such as IL-17 pathway and Toll-like receptor pathway.Through drug prediction,it was found that Astragalus,Scutellaria,Schisandra and Cop-tis in traditional Chinese medicine might be potential drug sources for RA treatment.Conclusion:Bioinformatics method can predict key genes and signaling pathways of intestinal flora intervention in pathogenesis and progression of RA,and predict the Chinese herbs that may target the regulation of flora for treatment of risk factors,which providing a theoretical basis for further exploration of targeted treatment of RA.
