ObjectiveTo investigate the demand and the application outcomes of case-based learning (CBL) combined with teaching case library in continuing education courses for rehabilitation therapists. MethodsA convergent mixed-methods research design was adopted, involving 51 rehabilitation therapists and 31 instructors who participated in the advanced training program at the Department of Rehabilitation Medicine, Peking University Third Hospital between October, 2022 and October, 2024. Self-developed questionnaires were used to collect data on the perceived needs of teachers and students regarding CBL and teaching case library. Differences between CBL + teaching case library and traditional lecturing in student evaluations, classroom participation and interaction were compared using Student Evaluation of Teaching in Medical Lectures, Classroom Participation Scale and Flanders Interaction Analysis System. Semi-structured interviews were conducted to obtain evaluations and attitudes towards this method from both instructors and students' perspectives. ResultsThe survey showed that 91.4% of participating teachers and students supported the use of CBL in the courses, and 82.7% advocated that the teaching case library should include typical cases. Significant differences were observed in teaching preference between teachers and students (χ² = 17.597, P < 0.01). Application effects demonstrated that CBL+teaching library significantly outperformed traditional teaching methods in student previewing behaviors, classroom interaction and learning outcomes (|Z| ≥ 2.646, P < 0.01). Flanders Interaction Analysis indicated that CBL+teaching library was superior to traditional teaching in terms of students' motivation to speak and autonomous learning. Qualitative Research generated four positive themes including cultivating clinical reasoning, being close to clinical practice, deepening knowledge understanding and improving teaching quality; and three negative themes including increasing teaching burden, high software and hardware requirements and posing great challenges to students were generated. ConclusionCompared with traditional teaching methods, CBL combined with teaching case library is closely linked to clinical practice, facilitating students' clinical reasoning, enhancing teaching effectiveness and satisfaction, and therefore aligning with the goals and needs of continuing education for rehabilitation therapists, which is highly recognized by both instructors and students.

Microbial communities such as those residing in the human gut are highly diverse and complex, and many with important implications for health and diseases. The effects and functions of these microbial communities are determined not only by their species compositions and diversities but also by the dynamic intra- and inter-cellular states at the transcriptional level. Powerful and scalable technologies capable of acquiring single-microbe-resolution RNA sequencing information in order to achieve a comprehensive understanding of complex microbial communities together with their hosts are therefore utterly needed. Here we report the development and utilization of a droplet-based smRNA-seq (single-microbe RNA sequencing) method capable of identifying large species varieties in human samples, which we name smRandom-seq2. Together with a triple-module computational pipeline designed for the bacteria and bacteriophage sequencing data by smRandom-seq2 in four human gut samples, we established a single-cell level bacterial transcriptional landscape of human gut microbiome, which included 29,742 single microbes and 329 unique species. Distinct adaptive response states among species in Prevotella and Roseburia genera and intrinsic adaptive strategy heterogeneity in Phascolarctobacterium succinatutens were uncovered. Additionally, we identified hundreds of novel host-phage transcriptional activity associations in the human gut microbiome. Our results indicated that smRandom-seq2 is a high-throughput and high-resolution smRNA-seq technique that is highly adaptable to complex microbial communities in real-world situations and promises new perspectives in the understanding of human microbiomes.

Objective:To observe the feelings of listening to music and the importance of music in the daily life of post-lingual deaf adults with cochlear implants, and to explore the relevant influencing factors.Methods:This was a cross-sectional survey study. From January 2021 to August 2021,the Music-Related Quality of Life Scale was used to evaluate the music needs and music experiences of 63 post-lingual deaf adults who met the inclusion criteria, including 27 males and 36 females, aged (40.7±12.3) years, at the time of surgery (36.8±13.1) years, and with a preoperative hearing aid ineffective time of (3.9±5.8) years. Indicators analyzed included age, duration of ineffective preoperative hearing aid wear, preoperative music preference, duration of postoperative cochlear implant use, current hearing aid modality, and auditory rehabilitation outcomes. Whether the six factors mentioned above constituted an influence on the subjects′ music listening was investigated using SPSS 25.0 statistical software.Results:All of the observations in the scale were correlated with a single factor. The two sub-dimensions of music experience section were related to the effect of auditory rehabilitation. In the importance section, the effect of auditory rehabilitation was the influential factor of the dimension of "participation importance", and the preoperative enjoyment of music was the relevant influential factor of the dimension of "perceived importance". There was a significant difference between the groups when they were grouped by the above factors ( P value<0.05), while there was no statistically significance between the groups when they were grouped by other factors ( P value>0.05). Conclusions:Post-lingual deaf adults show the need and attempt to listen to music after cochlear implantation. The effectiveness of auditory rehabilitation and the degree of music preference preoperatively are two important factors that influence music listening in implant recipients. Once the level of auditory communication has been restored to a certain degree, it is important to pay more attention to the needs of music for implant recipients and train them in time, especially for those with music preferences preoperatively.

AIM:To explore the molecular mechanism of Tiaopi Chengqi decoction (TpCqD) improving hyperthermia and high-protein food-induced hyperphagia mice based on transcriptomics. METHODS:C57 mice were randomly divided into a control group, model group, low-dose TpCqD group, high-dose TpCqD group, and domperidone group. The general condition of the experimental mice was observed and the average food intake was counted, and the rate of gastric emptying and intestinal propulsion was determined for each group of mice. H&E staining was used to observe pathological changes in gastric tissue. PAS staining was used to observe glycogen changes in gastric tissue. Pepsin activity was determined by colorimetry. pH value of gastric contents was measured by acid-base titration. Transcriptome sequencing was used to analyze the differential genes in gastric tissue, a volcano map and a cluster heat map were made for the differential genes, and KEGG was used to analyze the signal pathway enrichment of the differential genes. RT-qPCR verified the differential genes obtained by screening. RESULTS:After treatment with TpCqD, the body weight and average food intake of mice with food accumulation increased (P<0.05), and the intestinal propulsion rate and gastric emptying speed of mice with food accumulation accelerated (P<0.05). TpCqD could protect gastric tissue structure and glycogen degradation, increase pepsin activity (P<0.05), and reduce gastric content pH (P<0.05). Transcriptome results showed that TpCqD could regulate the expression of Acox2 and cilp2, regulate fat digestion and absorption, protein digestion and absorption, and pancreatic secretion signals. RT-qPCR showed that compare with model group, TpCqD up-regulated Acox2 (P<0.05) and down-regulated the mRNA level of cilp2 (P<0.05). CONCLUSION:TpCqD ameliorated digestive dysfunction in mice with high-calorie and high-protein diets leading to food accumulation involving the regulation of the fat and sugar metabolism genes Acox2 and cilp2, and pancreatic secretory signaling.

OBJECTIVE：To study the improvement effects of isopimpinelline on p-chlorophenylalanine（PCPA）-induced pineal injury model rats and its effect on expression of biological clock gene. METHODS ：Totally 60 rats were divided into blank control group（2％ polysorbate solution），model control group （2％ polysorbate solution），positive control group （melatonin，10 mg/kg） and isopimpinelline high-dose ，medium-dose and low-dose groups （3，1.5，0.75 mg/kg）. Except for blank control group ，rats in other groups were given PCPA intraperitoneally （450 mg/kg）to establish pineal injury model. After modeling finished ，they were given relevant medicine intragastrically ，once a day ，for consecutive 7 d. On the 6th day of administration ，the sleep latency and sleep duration of rats in each group were investigated by pentobarbital sodium coordination sleep test ；after last administration ， ELISA assay was used to determine the serum level of melatonin in rats. Fluorescence microscope and electron microscope were used to observe the pathological tissue and cell ultrastructure changes of the pineal gland. RT-qPCR was used to detect the mRNA expressions of biological clock gene Clock，Bmal1，Per1，Per2，Per3，Cry1，Cry2 in pineal gland of rats. RESULTS ：Compared with blank control group ，model control group had significantly longer sleep latency （P＜0.05）；serum melatonin ，mRNA expressions of Bmal1 and Per1 in pineal gland were significantly decreased （P＜0.05 or P＜0.01）while mRNA expression of Per3 was increased significantly （P＜0.05）. The pineal gland cell arrangement disorder ，nuclear pyknosis ，vacuolar degeneration increased and cell number decreased significantly ；mitochondria swollen ，cristae broken and pyknosis were observed. Compared with model control group ，the sleep latency of isopimpinelline high-dose group was shortened significantly （P＜0.05），sleep duration time was prolonged significantly （P＜0.05）；the levels of melatonin in serum ，mRNA expressions of Clock，Bmal1， Per1，Cry1 and Cry2 in pineal gland of rats were increased significantly （P＜0.05 or P＜0.01）. In isopimpinelline medium-dose group，the sleep latency was shortened significantly （P＜0.05）；the levels of melatonin in serum and mRNA expressions of Clock， Bmal1，Per1，Cry1，Cry2 in pineal gland were increased significantly （P＜0.05 or P＜0.01），while mRNA expression of Per3 was decreased significantly （P＜0.05）. In isopimpinelline low-dose group ，the levels of mRNA expressions of Clock，Bmal1，Per2 and Cry2 were increased significantly （P＜0.05），while mRNA expression of Per3 was decreased significantly （P＜0.05）. Cell arrangement disorder was improved and nuclear pyknosis vacuole degeneration was decreased to some extent in isopimpinelline groups；mitochondria swelled ，cristae fractured ，and pyknosis decreased to some extent. CONCLUSIONS ：Isopimpinelline can improve PCPA-induced pineal gland injury in rats ；it can up-regulate the expressions of positive regulators Clock，Bmal1 and negative regulators Per1，Per2，Cry1，Cry2，while down-regulate the expression of negative regulator Per3.

Objective: To systematically evaluate evidence for the use of interventions based on appied behavior analysis (ABA) to manage various symptoms of children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Methods: Sensitivity analyses were conducted by removing any outlying studies and subgroup analyses were performed to compare the effectiveness of ABA and early start denver model (ESDM), picture exchange communication systems (PECS) and discrete trial training (DTT). Results: 14 randomized control trials of 555 participants were included in this meta-analysis. The overall standardized mean difference was d=-0.36 (95% CI -1.31, 0.58; Z=0.75, p=0.45) for autism general symptoms, d=0.11 (95% CI -0.31, 0.54; Z=0.52, p=0.60) for socialization, d=0.30 (95% CI -0.02, 0.61; Z=1.84, p=0.07) for communication and d=-3.52 (95% CI -6.31, -0.72; Z=2.47, p=0.01) for expressive language, d=-0.04 (95% CI -0.44, 0.36; Z=0.20, p=0.84) for receptive language. Those results suggested outcomes of socialization, communication and expressive language may be promising targets for ABA-based interventions involving children with ASD. However, significant effects for the outcomes of autism general symptoms, receptive language, adaptive behavior, daily living skills, IQ, verbal IQ, nenverbal IQ, restricted and repetitive behavior, motor and cognition were not observed. Conclusion The small number of studies included in the present study limited the ability to make inferences when comparing ABA, ESDM, PECS and DTT interventions for children with ASD.
