BackgroundAdverse childhood experiences （ACEs） are strong predictors of psychopathology across the lifespan， exerting extensive adverse effects on physical and mental health during early development. While ACEs increase the risk of childhood psychopathology， sleep quality and impair cognitive function， the early neurobiological mechanisms mediating ACE-induced cognitive impairment remain unclear. ObjectiveTo explore the association between ACEs exposure and the risk of psychopathology， sleep disorders， and cognitive function， and to examine the mediating role of the putamen volume in the relationship between ACEs and cognitive function from a neurodevelopment perspective. MethodsData were obtained from the Adolescent Brain Cognitive Development （ABCD） study， comprising 10 572 children aged 9 to 10. Participants were categorized into five groups based on the cumulative score of ACEs reported by their parents and the children themselves： no-exposure group （0 types of ACEs）， the one-exposure group， the two-exposure group， the three-exposure group， and the high-risk exposure group （≥ 4 types of ACEs）. Logistic regression analysis was employed to evaluate the association between ACEs and psychopathological symptoms ［T score of the Child Behavior Checklist （CBCL） ≥ 65］. Multiple linear regression analysis was ultilized to analyze the correlations between ACEs and the scores of the Sleep Disturbance Scale for Children （SDSC）， the NIH Toolbox Cognition Battery （NIHTB-CB）， as well as the multiple structures in the cerebral cortex and subcortex. The Bootstrap method was applied to test the mediating effect of the putamen volume between ACEs and neurocognitive function. ResultsAfter adjusting for confounders， ACEs cumulative score was correlated with children's psychopathological symptoms in a dose-response manner. Compared with the no-exposed group， the high-risk exposure group had a 2.08-fold （OR=2.080， 95% CI： 1.401–3.088） increased risk of internalizing problems and a 3.13-fold （OR=3.132， 95% CI： 1.703–5.760） increased risk of externalizing problems， and the risk of conduct problems was 4.68 times that of the no-exposed group （OR=4.681， 95% CI： 2.528–8.669）. ACEs cumulative score positively predicted the total score of SDSC （β=0.080， 95% CI： 0.059–0.102）， with relatively stronger predictive effects on sleep-wake transition disorder （β=0.086， 95% CI： 0.063–0.109） and sleep onset and maintenance disorder （β=0.066， 95% CI： 0.043–0.089）. In terms of neurocognition and brain structure， ACEs cumulative score negatively predicted the overall cognitive composite score （β=-0.025， 95% CI： -0.050–-0.001）， the crystallized cognitive composite score （β=-0.035， 95% CI： -0.060–-0.010）， the volume of the left putamen nucleus （β=-0.025， 95% CI： -0.046– 0.003）， and the volume of the right putamen nucleus （β=-0.023， 95% CI： -0.044– 0.003）. The total putamen volume played a partial mediating role between ACEs and the overall cognitive composite score， the effect value was -0.002 （95% CI： -0.004–-0.001）， accounting for 7.49% of the total effect. ConclusionACEs exposure may increase the risk of psychopathological and sleep disturbances in children and may impair neurocognitive function. Reduced putamen volume may serve a potential neurobiological pathway underlying the impact of ACEs on childhood cognition. ［Funded by National Natural Science Foundation of China-Young Scientists Program （number， 82401763）； Sichuan University West China Hospital Full-time Postdoctoral Research and Development Fund Project （number， 2023HXBH084）］

In proton therapy,prompt gamma-ray imaging is considered as one of the most promising methods for assessing proton beam range.Prompt gamma-ray imaging detector evaluates the proton beam range based on the prompt gamma-ray distribution obtained by the prompt gamma-ray imaging system,which enables high-precision measurement of the proton beam range.Herein a proton beam range verification algorithm is designed for the newly developed prototype of the range verification detector(pixelated prompt gamma-ray imaging detector),which verifies the range estimation accuracy of the prototype for different phantoms and different energies of homogeneous media through Monte Carlo simulation.The results show that the accuracy of the proton beam range verification algorithm is within 0.5 mm of the safety margin error of the Bragg peak,and the measurement accuracy is significantly improved with the increase of the number of protons,indicating that the prototype algorithm is feasible for proton beam range verification.

Objective To explore the mechanism by which electroacupuncture improves ocular surface inflammation in dry eye mice.Methods 30 SPF-grade healthy male ICR mice were randomly divided into a blank group,a model group,a sham electroacupuncture group,a western medicine group and an electroacupuncture group,with 6 mice in each group.Mice in the blank group and other four groups were subcutaneously injected 200 μL of sterile physiological saline and 200 μL of scopolamine hydrobromide(0.5 mg dissolved in 0.2 mL of sterile physiological saline)at 8:00,11:00,14:00,and 17:00 every day for 35 consecutive days,respectively.From the 22nd day,mice in the sham electroacupunc-ture group were given blunt scalp acupuncture intervention at bilateral Jingming and Taiyang points,without subcutaneous penetration.In the western medicine group,fluorometholone eye drops were applied to both eyes of the mice at 8:00,13:00,and 18:00 daily,with 1 drop each time.Mice in the electroacupuncture group were given electroacupuncture in-tervention,with the same acupoint location and acupuncture time as the sham electroacupuncture group.The electroacu-puncture frequency was 2 Hz/20 Hz,the waves were sparse-dense and the intensity was 1 mA,once a day for 15 min.All groups were intervened for 14 days.The corneal fluorescein(FL)staining scores of mice in each group were detected be-fore modeling,after modeling,and after intervention.The corneal tissue morphology was observed under a light micro-scope.Immunohistochemistry staining and quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction(qRT-PCR)were used to detect the protein and mRNA expression of high mobility group box 1(HMGB1)and receptor for advanced glyca-tion end products(RAGE)in the cornea,respectively.Results The FL scores of mice in model,sham electroacupunc-ture,western medicine,and electroacupuncture groups all significantly increased after modeling and intervention,com-pared with those before modeling(all P＜0.01).The FL scores of mice in electroacupuncture and western medicine groups significantly decreased after intervention,compared with those after modeling(both P＜0.01).Compared with the model group,electroacupuncture and western medicine groups showed a significant drop in FL score after intervention(both P＜0.01).HE staining showed that after intervention,mice in electroacupuncture and western medicine groups had a basically normal number of corneal epithelial layers,no obvious shedding of epithelial cells,and neatly arranged and slightly swollen collagen fibers in the stromal layer.The relative protein expression levels of HMGB1 and RAGE in the corneal tissue of both model and sham electroacupuncture groups were significantly higher than those of the blank group(allP＜0.01).The rela-tive protein expression levels of HMGB1 and RAGE in the corneal tissue of both electroacupuncture and western medicine groups were significantly lower than those of the model group(all P＜0.01).The relative mRNA expression levels of HMGB1 and RAGE in the corneal tissue of both model and sham electroacupuncture groups were significantly higher than those of the blank group(all P＜0.01).The relative mRNA expression levels of HMGB1 and RAGE in the corneal tissue of both electroacupuncture and western medicine groups were significantly lower than those of the model group(all P＜0.01).Conclusion Electroacupuncture mitigates corneal epithelial injury,reduces the expression of HMGB1 in the cor-neal tissue,inhibits the binding of HMGB1 and RAGE,and ultimately alleviates ocular surface inflammation responses of dry eye mice.

AIM:To evaluate the effects of liposo-mal bupivacaine for interscalene brachial plexus block on postoperative analgesia and diaphragmat-ic function in patients undergoing arthroscopic ro-tator cuff repair surgery based on a randomized controlled trial.METHODS:Forty patients who scheduled to undergo arthroscopic rotator cuff re-pair surgery,regardless of gender,aged 18 to 65 years,ASA grade Ⅰ or Ⅱ were selected from October 2023 to February 2024.The patients were random-ly divided into bupivacaine liposome group(group LB)and the levobupivacaine group(group BV),with 20 cases in each group.Patients in both groups re-ceived an ultrasound-guided interscalene brachial plexus block,15 mL mixed liquids(bupivacaine lipo-some 10 mL+0.5％levobupivacaine 10 mL)were in-jected into the level of C5-C6 nerve roots and 5 mL onto the surface of prevertebral fascia in the LB group,and same volume of 0.375％levobupiva-caine were injected at the same sites in the BV group respectively.Standardized general anesthe-sia and standardized postoperative analgesia were followed.The primary outcome measures included 48 h rest/motor numerical rating scale(NRS)scores after surgery and the incidence of hemidiaphrag-matic paralysis(HDP)after block.The secondary outcome measures included rest/motor NRS scores at other time points after surgery,pulse oxygen sat-uration(SpO2)30 min after block,duration of sen-sory and motor block,number of analgesic pump presses,time of first postoperative used of opioid drugs and opioid consumption,use of additional analgesics in the wards,satisfaction with analgesia,and the occurrence of perioperative adverse ef-fects and neurological complications.RESULTS:Compared with group BV,patients in LB group showed lower rest NRS scores at 48 h postopera-tion(P＜0.05)and higher incidence of HDP at 24 h after block(45％vs.5.3％,P＜0.05).However,there was no significant difference in motor NRS scores at 48 h,HDP incidence at 30 min and 6 h after block between the two groups(P＞0.05).Both groups showed a decrease in SpO2 after block com-pared to before block(P＜0.05).Compared with BV group,patients in LB group had a significantly lon-ger duration of sensory and motor block(P＜0.01),fewer effective presses with the analgesic pump(P＜0.01),delay in first opioid use and less opioid con-sumption(P＜0.05),higher level of satisfaction with analgesia(P＜0.01),and a lower rate of use of addi-tional analgesics in the ward(P＜0.05).There was no statistically significant difference in the total in-traoperative remifentanil consumption,incidence of perioperative adverse reactions and neurological complication between the two groups(P＞0.05).CONCLUSION:Compared with using levobupiva-caine alone,the addition of liposomal bupivacaine for interscalene brachial plexus block in arthroscop-ic rotator cuff repair can reduce postoperative NRS scores,decrease postoperative opioid dosage and significantly prolong blockduration,but can easily lead to longer duration of HDP in patients.

Objective:To investigate the mediating effect of psychological flexibility between recurrence risk perception and health behavior in stroke patients.Methods:From July to December 2024, 233 stroke patients at the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University were selected using convenience sampling. Electronic questionnaires were used to collect patients' general information, perception of stroke recurrence risk, health behavior, and psychological flexibility.Results:The scores for recurrence risk perception, psychological flexibility, and health behavior of 233 stroke patients were (39.75±4.39), (47.45±4.19), and (54.04±3.78), respectively. Health behavior were positively correlated with recurrence risk perception ( r=0.495, P<0.01), and negatively correlated with psychological flexibility ( r=-0.367, P<0.01). Psychological flexibility partially mediated the relationship between recurrence risk perception and health behavior, with an effect value of 0.080 and an effect proportion of 17.5% (0.080/0.458) . Conclusions:Recurrence risk perception not only directly predicts health behavior in stroke patients but also indirectly influences their health behavior through psychological flexibility. Healthcare providers should enhance recurrence risk perception among stroke patients and incorporate the improvement of psychological flexibility as part of intervention strategies to improve patients' health behavior.

Objective To investigate the effect of ventilation with different tidal volumes on respiratory mechanics and haemodynamics in children with severe pneumonia.Methods A total of 104 children with severe pneumonia were divided into the control group and the observation group using a random number table method,with 52 cases in each group.Both groups underwent mechanical ventilation treatment.The control group was treated with conventional tidal volume of 10-12 mL/kg,while the observation group was given a low tidal volume of 6-8 mL/kg.The respiratory mechanics indicators,hemodynamic indicators and inflammatory factor indicators before and after treatment were compared between the two groups.Results After treatment,the airway resistance(AR)and airway closing pressure(AOP)were lower in the observation group than those of the control group(P＜0.05),and pulmonary dynamic compliance(Cdyn)was higher in the observation group than that of the control group(P＜0.05).There were no significant differences in heart rate(HR),mean arterial pressure(MAP)and central venous pressure(CVP)after treatment between the two groups(P＜0.05).After treatment,the levels of interleukin(IL)-6,IL-8 and tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α)were all lower in the observation group than those in the control group(P＜0.05).Conclusion Small tidal volume mechanical ventilation is effective in improving the respiratory mechanics of children with severe pneumonia without causing large fluctuations in their hemodynamics.At the same time,it can reduce the level of inflammatory factors in the organism.

Objective:To explore the differences of cortical responses to unilateral upper limb training (UULT) in subacute stroke patients with different motor-evoked potentials (MEPs).Methods:A cross-sectional study was performed; 33 subacute stroke patients accepted UULT were recruited from Center of Rehabilitation Medicine, Zhujiang Hospital, Southern Medical University from August 2023 to August 2024. Transcranial magnetic stimulation was used to assess MEPs, and functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) was used to record hemodynamic changes in bilateral primary motor cortex (M1), pre-motor cortex/supplementary motor area (PMC/SMA), and posterior parietal cortex (PPC) during the resting state and UULT task state. Wavelet coherence analysis and Granger causality analysis were used to determine the strengths of functional connectivity (FC) and effective connectivity (EC) between brain regions.Results:Among the 33 patients, 16 were assigned to an absent MEP (MEP -) group and 17 into a present MEP (MEP +) group (MEP amplitude: [310±200] μV). In the MEP - group, compared with those during the resting state, FC of ipsilesional M1 with contralesional PPC, contralesional M1, ipsilesional PPC, contralesional PMC/SMA and ipsilesional PMC/SMA during the task state (0.64±0.14 vs. 0.48±0.12, 0.63±0.14 vs. 0.45±0.10, 0.70±0.14 vs. 0.56±0.12, 0.56±0.13 vs. 0.39±0.15, 0.61±0.13 vs. 0.44±0.14), and FC between the ipsilesional PMC/SMA and ipsilesional PPC during the task state (0.71±0.12 vs. 0.61±0.09) were significantly decreased ( P<0.0033); compared with that during the resting state, EC from the ipsilesional PPC to the ipsilesional PMC/SMA during the task state (0.15±0.07 vs. 0.25±0.18) was significantly increased ( P<0.05). In the MEP + group, compared with that during the resting state, FC of the ipsilesional M1 with contralesional M1 and ipsilesional PPC during the task state (0.81±0.08 vs. 0.70±0.14, 0.78±0.08 vs. 0.68±0.13) was significantly decreased ( P<0.0033); compared with that during the resting state, EC from contralesional M1 to ipsilesional M1 during the task state (0.11±0.10 vs. 0.15±0.10) was significantly increased ( P<0.05). No significant differences were noted in changes of FC strength between resting state and UULT task state across brain regions when comparing the MEP - and MEP + groups ( P>0.0033). Conclusion:MEP - subacute stroke patients exhibit extensive bilateral cortical response during the UULT task state, whereas MEP + patients show limited cortical response, which indicate that rehabilitation training strategy in MEP + patients needs to be adjusted.

Objective:To examine the interaction between interpersonal issues and eating behavior problems among college freshmen, and to identify core psychological factors and potential pathways that drive eating behavior.Methods:In October 2019, a total of 5 073 college freshmen from a university in Shanghai were recruited as participants. Their general demographic data were collected, and they were evaluated using the eating disorder examination questionnaire 6.0 (EDE-Q 6.0) and inventory of interpersonal problems-32(IIP-32).Descriptive analyses were performed using SPSS 24.0 software.A regularized partial correlation network was constructed using the graphical least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (GLASSO) in R(v4.2.3) software. A Bayesian network analysis (BNA) was conducted to build a directed network, aiming to identify core driving factors and key psychological mechanisms.Results:Regularized partial correlation network identified shape concern as the most central node, with the highest strength centrality(1.32) and expected influence(1.20). It showed the highest bridge strength with dominance/control (0.22, 0.21), linking the interpersonal and eating behavior modules. Directed network analysis indicated that low self-confidence was the upstream node influencing social inhibition and cold/ distant relationships, indirectly affecting eating disorder.Within the eating module, shape concern and weight concern predicted eating preoccupation and dietary restraint, forming a pathway structure from eating cognition to behavior.The network demonstrated good stability (CS-coefficient=0.75).Conclusion:Shape concern is the core mechanism underlying eating problems in college freshmen. Low self-confidence contributes indirectly via interpersonal dysfunction. Dominance/control and shape concern bridge interpersonal and eating domains, providing key targets for early prevention and intervention.

Lung transplantation is an important means to treat end-stage lung disease and improve the survival rate and quality of life of patients. However, many postoperative complications seriously affect the prognosis of recipients. Accurate identification of key prognostic factors and construction of individualized and accurate prediction models are of great significance for postoperative prognosis evaluation, treatment strategy formulation and clinical decision-making. In recent years, the clinical prediction model of lung transplantation has gradually changed from traditional statistical methods to machine learning-driven. Compared with traditional models such as Cox regression and Logistic regression, machine learning models such as random forest, support vector machine and artificial neural network have certain advantages in postoperative survival rate prediction, early warning of complications and pulmonary function evaluation. However, their application is also affected by insufficient sample size and poor interpretability of models. Under the condition of small samples, the traditional model still has important value in prediction accuracy. The appropriate prediction model should be selected according to the clinical status of lung transplantation in China, considering the factors such as sample size, variable complexity and model interpretability. In the future, a multi-center, large-sample lung transplantation database should be constructed to further optimize and tap the potential of machine learning algorithms to improve the robustness and clinical applicability of the model.
