Objective:To sinicize the English version of the rapid eye movement sleep behavior disorder symptom severity scale (RBDSSS) and to evaluate the reliability and validity of the Chinese version of RBDSSS (RBDSSS-C) among Chinese patients with rapid eye movement sleep behavior disorder (RBD).Methods:RBDSSS-C was ultimately formed through translation, back translation and revision according to the Brislin's translation model, including patient version (RBDSSS-PT) and bedpartner version (RBDSSS-BP). A questionnaire survey was conducted among 120 RBD patients to test the reliability and validity of the RBDSSS-C, using Cronbach’s α coefficient, Spearman-Brown coefficient, Spearman correlation analysis, content validity index and factor analysis. The correlation between RBDSSS-C and RBDQ-HK was examined.Results:For the Chinese version of RBDSSS-PT, the Cronbach’s α was 0.795, the split-half reliability was 0.756, and the test-retest reliability was 0.940. Item-level content validity indices (I-CVI) ranged from 0.833 to 1.000, and the scale-level CVI (S-CVI) was 0.937.For the Chinese version of RBDSSS-BP, the Cronbach’s α was 0.712, the split-half reliability was 0.813, and test-retest reliability was 0.950, with both I-CVI and S-CVI at 1.000.The scores of Chinese version of RBDSSS-PT and RBDSSS-BP were both significantly correlated with RBDQ-HK scores ( r=0.638, P<0.001 for RBDSSS-PT; r=0.639, P<0.001 for RBDSSS-BP). Factor analysis confirmed both single-factor structure for RBDSSS-PT and RBDSSS-BP.RBDSSS-PT showed χ2/ df=3.930, CFI=0.954, TLI=0.937, and RMSEA=0.093; RBDSSS-BP showed χ2/ df=8.300, CFI=0.975, TLI=0.966, and RMSEA=0.079. These results indicated adequate model fit. Conclusion:RBDSSS-C has good reliability and validity, and can be used as a reliable and effective tool to evaluate the severity of symptoms in Chinese RBD patients.

Objective: This study aimed to elucidate the hand function recovery capacity of degenerative cervical myelopathy (DCM) patients with different severities of hand dexterity impairment. Methods: Hand functional outcome measures such as the 10-second grip and release (10s-G&R) test, modified Japanese Orthopaedic Association (mJOA) upper extremity score and Japanese Orthopaedic Association Cervical Myelopathy Evaluation Questionnaire (JOACMEQ) upper extremity function were collected before surgery and at the 1-year follow-up. A total of 102 DCM patients were categorized into mild, moderate and severe group based on the preoperative 10s-G&R test result. Hand functional parameters were compared across the 3 groups. Multivariate linear regression was conducted to explore predictive factors. Receiver operating characteristic curve analysis was performed to assess the predictive efficacy of the preoperative 10s-G&R test and establish the cutoff value for incomplete recovery of hand dexterity. Results: At the 1-year follow-up, significant improvements were observed in all hand functional parameters across all 3 groups. However, the incomplete recovery rates of the mild, moderate, severe groups were 26.67%, 46.88%, and 57.50%, respectively (p < 0.05). Multivariate regression revealed that preoperative 10s-G&R test result, age, Hoffmann sign, duration of symptom, and mJOA Upper score serve as significant predictors for postoperative 10s-G&R test outcomes. Patients with a preoperative 10s-G&R test < 15 cycles have a 1.9 times higher risk of incomplete recovery of hand function (p = 0.005). Conclusion Most patients, regardless of their preoperative hand function, exhibit potential for improvement in hand dexterity. However, worse initial hand dexterity correlates with poorer outcomes. Surgical treatment is recommended before the 10s-G&R test drops below 15 cycles.

An increasing number of studies have shown that there is a close relationship between Alzheimer's disease(AD)and diabetes mellitus(DM).Traditional Chinese medicine holds that"kidney yin deficiency"is the common pathogenesis of these two diseases,while modern medicine believes that their pathogenesis involves abnormal aggregation of amyloid proteins,insulin deficiency and resistance,inflammatory response,oxidative stress,and autophagy,among others.The well-known traditional Chinese medicine formula Liuwei Dihuang Pills plays a significant role in the treatment of these two diseases with the same therapeutic approach.Therefore,this article will explore the connection between Liuwei Dihuang Pills and the treatment of AD and DM from different aspects;analyze the common etiology and pathogenesis of AD and DM,and explain the mechanism of prevention and treatment of Liuwei Dihuang Pills,with the aim of providing new ideas and methods for the integrated traditional and Western medicine prevention and treatment of AD and DM in the future.

Circular RNA(circRNA)represents a unique class of closed-loop structured non-coding RNAs involved in various biological processes such as cell proliferation,differentiation,and apopto-sis.They play a significant role in the development of numerous diseases,and also serve as poten-tial biomarkers and therapeutic targets.To explore the impact of circRNA on viral replication,this study performed an omics measurement and analysis of circRNA differential expression in MC38 cells infected with HY12 enterovirus.It was found that,following HY12 virus infection,the ex-pressionlevels of 570 circRNAs were upregulated,while 381 circRNAs were downregulated.A-mong the upregulated circRNAs,the significantly upregulated circRNA mmu_circ_0001083 was selected for further investigation into its association with HY12 infection and its impact on viral replication.The results indicated that after HY12 virus infection,the expression of host circRNA mmu_circ_0001083 significantly increased,and its expression level was dependent on the virus dos-age and time.Compared to normal MC38 cells infected with the HY12 virus,cells with knocked down expression of circRNA mmu_circ_0001083 showed reduced expression of the 2C protein and significantly lower viral titers.Conversely,after HY12 virus infection in MC38 cells with overexpressed circRNA mmu_circ_0001083,there was an increase in the expression of the 2C pro-tein and a significant rise in viral titers.These results suggest that the upregulation of host cir-cRNA mmu_circ_0001083 is significantly positively correlated with the replication of HY12 virus,meaning mmu_circ_0001083 plays a positive regulatory role in the replication of HY12.This find-ing lays a foundation for future in-depth studies on the regulatory mechanisms of circRNA on viral replication.
