1.Correlation between beverage dependence and sleep quality among college students
Chinese Journal of School Health 2025;46(8):1125-1129
Objective:
To explore the relationship between beverage dependence and sleep quality among college students, providing empirical evidence for improving their sleep quality.
Methods:
From December 2024 to January 2025, a convenience sampling method was used to conduct a questionnaire survey among 3 974 college students from four universities in Anhui Province. The Beverage Addiction Scale for College Students (BASCS) was used to assess beverage dependence, and the Self rating Scale of Sleep(SRSS) was used to evaluate sleep quality. A multivariate Logistic regression model was employed to analyze the relationship between beverage dependence and sleep quality, and a restricted cubic spline model was used to examine the dose response relationship between the two.
Results:
The positive rate of beverage dependence symptoms among college students was 7.6%, with positive rates of 9.6%, 13.8%, and 7.4% for the withdrawal symptoms, health effects, and dependence symptoms dimensions, respectively. The detection rate of sleep disorders was 23.6%. Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that after adjusting for covariates such as grade, gender, and body mass index, compared with the no beverage dependence group, students with positive beverage dependence symptoms had a higher risk of sleep disorders( OR =3.71, 95% CI =2.87-4.80, P <0.01). The OR (95% CI ) for sleep disorders among students with positive symptoms in the withdrawal symptoms, health effects, and dependence symptoms dimensions were 2.80(2.22-3.53), 2.38(1.95-2.91), and 2.45(1.89-3.18)(all P <0.01). Further analysis using a restricted cubic spline model revealed that the overall beverage dependence score and its three dimensional scores were approximately linearly related to the risk of sleep disorders among college students (all nonlinear P >0.05).
Conclusions
Beverage dependence is associated with sleep quality among college students. Schools should take multiple approaches, such as health education on beverage awareness, to improve students sleep quality.

Objective:To explore the role of diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) in monitoring prognosis after contralateral C7 nerve transfer in patients with central paralysis.Methods:The clinical data of a 56-year-old male patient with right limb motor impairment after cerebral infarction, admitted to the Department of Neurosurgery at Brain Hospital of Hunan Province in October 2023, were retrospectively analyzed. The patient had experienced right limb motor dysfunction for over 2 years following a cerebral infarction and was treated with contralateral C7 nerve transfer. Follow-ups were conducted at 2 and 6 months postoperatively. Motor function was assessed using the Fugl-Meyer Assessment (FMA) and Activities of Daily Living (ADL) scale, while changes in fractional anisotropy (FA) in the lesion area and corticospinal tract were monitored via DTI.Results:Postoperative follow-up of patient showed: (1) Significant improvement in motor function: ADL scores increased from 65 preoperatively to 75 (2 months postop) and 80 (6 months postop); FMA scores increased from 46 to 58 (2 months postop) and 61 (6 months postop). Muscle tension in the affected upper limb decreased markedly, and range of motion in the right shoulder joint improved. (2) Imaging improvements: DTI revealed an increase in FA values from 0.157 to 0.174 in the lesion area and from 0.52 to 0.53 in the corticospinal tract, indicating partial restoration of neural tract integrity.Conclusions:Contralateral C7 nerve transfer can effectively improve motor function in stroke patients. DTI technology provides an objective imaging basis for clinically assessing functional recovery by quantitatively evaluating changes in neural tract integrity, demonstrating significant value in guiding rehabilitation.

Objective:To explore the pathway of influencing factors of self-management in elderly patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) based on health belief theory.Methods:It was a cross-sectional study. A total of 210 elderly patients with T2DM admitted to Shanghai 10th People′s Hospital from January 2021 to March 2022 were selected as research subjects.The surveys of general data questionnaire, social support rating scale, the diabetes self-management scale, the health literacy survey scale for patients with chronic diseases, and the self-efficacy scale for patients with diabetes were conducted in all the subjects. The t test and Spearman correlation analysis were used to test the correlation among variables. Results:Social support, health literacy and self-efficacy were positively correlated with self-management scores in these patients ( r=0.380, 0.392, 0.274, all P<0.001). Univariate analysis showed that there were statistically significant differences in self-management among patients with different age, education level, physical exercise, medical payment method, family history and sleep quality (all P<0.05). Path analysis showed that the mediating effect of social support in the relationship between health literacy and self-efficacy was significant (95% CI: 0.014-0.117), social support, self-efficacy and health literacy directly affected self-management( β=0.25, 0.27, 0.35, all P<0.01). Self-efficacy and health literacy also positively affected self-management through multiple mediators of social support ( β=0.16, 0.27, both P<0.01). Conclusion:Social support, self-efficacy and health literacy mediate in the self-management of elderly patients with T2DM complicated with chronic complications and interact with each other.

Although deep learning plays an important role in cell nucleus segmentation, it still faces problems such as difficulty in extracting subtle features and blurring of nucleus edges in pathological diagnosis. Aiming at the above problems, a nuclear segmentation network combined with attention mechanism is proposed. The network uses UNet network as the basic structure and the depth separable residual (DSRC) module as the feature encoding to avoid losing the boundary information of the cell nucleus. The feature decoding uses the coordinate attention (CA) to enhance the long-range distance in the feature space and highlights the key information of the nuclear position. Finally, the semantics information fusion (SIF) module integrates the feature of deep and shallow layers to improve the segmentation effect. The experiments were performed on the 2018 data science bowl (DSB2018) dataset and the triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) dataset. For the two datasets, the accuracy of the proposed method was 92.01% and 89.80%, the sensitivity was 90.09% and 91.10%, and the mean intersection over union was 89.01% and 89.12%, respectively. The experimental results show that the proposed method can effectively segment the subtle regions of the nucleus, improve the segmentation accuracy, and provide a reliable basis for clinical diagnosis.
