Objective To investigate the effects of transcranial direct current stimulation(tDCS)combined with resistance training on the performance of college students completing pull-ups,and explore the potential mechanisms underlying the effects of training intervention from the perspective of neuromuscular activity control.Methods A total of 25 male college student volunteers were randomly divided into the tDCS combined with resistance training group(experiment group)and resistance training group(control group).Twelve subjects in the control group received a lat pull-down strength training intervention lasting for 8 weeks,with 4 sets of 12 movement repetitions each,3 times per week.Thirteen subjects in the experimental group received a 20-minute tDCS before the lat pull-up resistance training intervention.Lat pull-down isometric maximal voluntary contraction(MVC)force,lat pull-down maximal repetitions under 80％one-repetition maximum(1RM)loading,and conventional pull-up exercise were tested before and after the training intervention.Surface electromyography(sEMG)signals of the main exertion muscles of the upper limb were recorded during the pull-up exercise test.Results After the training intervention,the number of pull-ups completed by the experimental group and control group increased by 1.74 times and 1.42 times,respectively.Subjects in both groups showed significant improvements in their MVC and lat pull-down maximal repetitions under 80％1RM loading.However,there were no statistical differences in these indicators between groups.Activation levels of the agonist muscles brachioradialis,posterior deltoid,and pectoralis major were significantly decreased after the training compared to those before training for both groups.In addition,the coactivation level of the antagonist triceps brachii muscle in the experimental group significantly decreased from 0.50±0.22 to 0.37±0.09 after the training,while there was no significant change in the control group before and after the intervention.Conclusions Eight-week tDCS combined with resistance training and resistance training alone can significantly improve the pull-up performance of college students,which may be related to the fact that both types of training can significantly improve the active muscle contraction capacity.Combined with resistance training,tDCS is more effective in decreasing the coactivation level of triceps brachii during pull-ups and increasing the contraction efficiency of elbow joint muscles.

Objective To explore the anti-depression mechanism of Kai-Xin-San(KXS)via regulation of neurogenesis in hippocampus of depression-like mice.Methods The extracts of KXS were prepared and the anti-depression effects of KXS were evaluated by behavioral tests on chronic unpredictable mild stress(CUMS)induced depression-like mice.Evaluating depression-like behavior in CUMS mice through sucrose preference test,forced swimming test,tail suspension test,and other methods.Neurogenesis in hippocampus were determined by immunofluorescence assay.In addition,effects of KXS on regulating nestin expression and Wnt/b-catenin signaling pathway were explored by western blotting analysis.Amounts of cortisol,corticotropin-releasing factor(CRF),adrenocorticotropic hormone(ACTH),brain-derived neurotrophic factor(BDNF)and nerve growth factor(NGF)were determined by ELISA tests.Mouse primary neural stem cells(NSC)was used to evaluate the effect of KXS on promoting its proliferation by immunofluorescence assay.In addition,effects of KXS on regulating nestin and Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway were also explored by Western blotting analysis.Results KXS significantly ameliorated the depression-like behaviors in presence of increased sucrose preference rate and decreased immobile time of tail suspension and forced swimming.KXS significantly promoted the neurogenesis in the hippocampus and expressions of nestin,reduced the expressions of cortisol,CRF,ACTH,increased the expressions of BDNF,NGF,and regulated Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway.KXS also promoted the proliferation of NSCs and expressions of nestin,enhanced the translocation of b-catenin into nucleus,and regulated the expressions of proteins of Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway.Conclusion KXS promoted neurogenesis in hippocampus and regulated Wnt/β-catenin pathway,which might contribute to its antidepressant effect.

Objective This paper aims to investigate the application of intraoral scanning and cone beam computed tomography(CBCT)registration implant robot in dental implant surgery.Methods The data of 40 cases with dental de-fect of robot-assisted implantation from November 2023 to May 2024 were retrospectively analyzed.Before the opera-tion,the intraoral scan data and CBCT data of the posi-tioning markers were automatically fused with the initial CBCT images,and the registration error was calculated.The average registration error of positioning markers was determined during the operation,and the implantation ac-curacy was analyzed after the operation.Results The intraoral scan data and CBCT data of 40 patients with dental defect wearing positioning markers were successfully registered with the initial CBCT image,and the registration errors were(0.157±0.026)mm and(0.154±0.033)mm,respectively.Statistical analysis showed no statistical significance between them.The registration errors of the marker was(0.037 3±0.003 6)mm.A total of 55 implants were performed,and the total deviations of the implant point and the apical point were(0.78±0.41)and(0.89±0.28)mm,respectively.The transverse deviations of the implant point and the apical point were(0.44±0.36)and(0.58±0.25)mm,respectively.The depth deviations of the implant point and the apical point were(0.51±0.32)and(0.54±0.36)mm,respectively.The devia-tion of the implant angle was 1.24°±0.67°.Conclusion The fusion technology based on intraoral scanning and CBCT registration can meet the accuracy requirements of preoperative registration of oral implant robots.The technology in-creases the choice of registration methods before robot-assisted dental implant surgery and reduces the multiple radiation exposuresof the patient.

Objective:To investigate the impact of Bayesian penalized likelihood (BPL) PET reconstruction method on the uptake of 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) and signal to noise ratio (SNR) of lungs, liver, aorta and bones. Methods:From March 2019 to June 2019, the 18F-FDG PET/CT images of 60 patients with clinical diagnosed tumors (29 males, 31 females, age: 24-89 (60.4±15.2) years) in Yuhuangding Hospital were retrospectively analyzed. PET images were reconstructed with ordered subset expectation maximization (OSEM), time of flight (TOF)+ point spread function (PSF) and BPL (β=350) algorithms. Volumes of interest (VOIs) were delineated on the right upper lung lobe, the right liver, aortic root and lumbar vertebra. The mean standardized uptake value (SUV mean), maximum standardized uptake value (SUV max), peak of lean body standardized uptake value (SUL peak), standard deviation of standardized uptake value (SUV SD) and the SNR were measured. The percentage of SNR change (%ΔSNR) between the BPL method and non-BPL methods were calculated. The correlations between body mass index (BMI) and %ΔSNR were analyzed by Pearson correlation analysis. One-way analysis of variance and the least significant difference (LSD) t test were used to analyze the data. Results:There were no significant differences of SUV mean and SUL peak in lung, aorta, liver and lumbar vertebra among 3 methods ( F values: 0.04-1.95, all P>0.05). The SUV max in lung, aorta, liver and lumbar vertebra of BPL reconstruction (1.14±0.82, 2.13±0.37, 2.95±0.50 and 2.76±0.87) was significantly lower than those of TOF+ PSF (1.56±0.61, 2.99±0.75, 4.32±0.94 and 4.05±1.48) and OSEM (1.51±0.67, 3.00±0.70, 4.45±1.12 and 3.81±1.06) reconstructions ( F values: 20.59-52.24, all P<0.001) and SUV SD (0.13±0.07, 0.20±0.05, 0.26±0.06, 0.38±0.17) was also significantly lower than those of TOF+ PSF (0.24±0.11, 0.43±0.11, 0.58±0.15, 0.67±0.21) and OSEM (0.21±0.09, 0.42±0.10, 0.58±0.14, 0.63±0.20) reconstructions ( F values: 24.46-124.95, all P<0.001), while the SNR (4.67±1.34, 7.74±2.22, 8.17±1.77, 4.45±1.22) was significantly higher than those of TOF+ PSF (2.54±0.72, 3.55±0.82, 3.77±0.91, 2.49±0.69) and OSEM (2.65±0.64, 3.67±0.80, 3.75±0.87, 2.60±0.67) reconstructions ( F values: 83.04-247.73, all P<0.001). However, there were no significant differences between OSEM and TOF+ PSF reconstructed images in SUL peak, SUV mean, SUV SD and SNR (all P>0.05). In BPL group, SNR increased with the increase of BMI, and there were statistically differences of aortic SNR (7.07±2.21 vs 9.67±2.26) and liver SNR (7.75±1.85 vs 9.32±0.70) between BMI<25 kg/m 2 and BMI≥30 kg/m 2 ( F values: 3.46 and 4.19, both P<0.05). Positive correlations were found between %ΔSNR of lung, aorta, liver and lumbar vertebra in OSEM and TOF+ PSF and BMI ( r value: 0.042-0.354, all P<0.05). Conclusion:In background tissues, BPL algorithm has no significant impact on absolute quantification compared with OSEM and TOF + PSF reconstruction methods but it can significantly improve SNR, especially for the patients with large body weight.

OBJECTIVE:To study the hemostatic effect of porcine fibrin sealant patch (DBT) on bleeding wound of liver in rats and gluteus maximus in heparinized rabbits. METHODS:48 rats and 24 rabbits were randomly divided into sham operation group,operation control group (gauze hemostasis),medical collagen sponge group and DBT group. Except for sham operation group,animals in other groups were reduced for rat model with liver bleeding or heparinized rabbit model with gluteus maximus bleeding. The hemostatic time was recorded,bleeding amount was calculated;DBT degradation and wound adhesion in liver after 3,13 weeks were observed;re-bleeding rate of heparinized rabbits in medical collagen sponge group and DBT group were investi-gated. RESULTS:Compared with sham operation group,the hemostatic time and bleeding amount of animals in operation control group were significantly increased(P<0.01). Compared with operation control group,the hemostatic time and bleeding amount of animals in DBT group and medical collagen sponge group were significantly reduced (P<0.01). After 3,13 weeks,different de-gree of adhesion appeared in the wound of rats in each group,while the adhesion scores had no statistical significances(P>0.05). After 13 weeks,liver margin of rats in administration groups was slightly blunt,but it basically had been restored to preoperative state,with good healing. DBT can be degraded and absorbed completely. The re-bleeding rate of rabbits in DBT group were33.3%,66.7% in medical collagen sponge group. CONCLU-SIONS:DBT has good hemostatic effect on fragile organs and the body with blood coagulation dysfunction,and can be de-graded and absorbed. Its effect is equivalent to medical colla-gen,while the adhesive strength is slightly better than the latter.
