Objective The aim of this study was to analyze the gastroscopic screening results of high-risk populations for gastric cancer in Gejiu City from 2021 to 2023,and to provide theoretical basis for gastric cancer prevention and treatment in this city.Methods A questionnaire survey was conducted to assess the risk of gastric cancer among residents aged 40 and above in Gejiu City.Gastroscopy and pathological biopsy were performed on those assessed as high-risk for gastric cancer,and the screening results were statistically analyzed.Results From 2021 to 2023,a total of 24,391 residents were evaluated,of which 7,978 were at high-risk of gastric cancer.Among them,2,473 individuals completed gastroscopy and pathological examination,with a screening rate of 31.00％.Twenty-eight cases of gastric cancer were detected,and the detection rate of gastric cancer in high-risk populations was 1.13％;Among them,there were 9 cases of early-stage gastric cancer,with an early diagnosis rate of 46.43％.The overall infection rate of Helicobacter pylori(HP)was 62.00％,and it increased significantly with the severity of gastric mucosal lesions(P＜0.001).The detection rates of gastric cancer and precancerous lesions were significantly higher in males,ethnic minorities,and HP-infected individuals was higher than those in females,Han people,and non-HP-infected individuals,and the differences were statistically sig-nificant(P＜0.05).Following-up results showed that 1 case(2.08％)of severe atrophic gastritis progressed to early gastric cancer,and 2 cases(6.67％)of low-grade intraepithelial neoplasia progressed to early gastric cancer.Conclusion The detection rate of gas-tric cancer among high-risk populations in Gejiu City was relatively high,however the proportion of early-stage cases remained low,indicating that the rate of early diagnosis still needs to be improved.Males,ethnic minorities,and HP-infected individuals are key tar-get groups for gastric cancer prevention and control in this region.HP infection may be closely related to the progression of gastric mu-cosal lesions and the occurrence of gastric cancer,and relevant interventions should be strengthened.

Objective To conduct a visualization analysis of acupuncture treatment for cervical spondylosis of vertebral artery type(CSA)using CiteSpace and VOSviewer,exploring the current research status and development trends in this field,and providing evidence and recommendations for future studies.Methods Journal articles on acupuncture treatment for CSA were retrieved from the China National Knowledge Infrastructure(CNKI)database from its inception to September 14,2024.Excel 2021,VOSviewer(1.6.20),and CiteSpace(5.7r5)were used to perform visualization analyses of author output,journal publications,research institutions,collaboration networks,and keywords,with knowledge maps generated accordingly.Results A total of 2 769 articles were retrieved,and after screening,1 874 articles were included.The publication output in the field of acupuncture for CSA generally showed an increasing trend.There were 129 authors who published≥3 articles,with the top three being Jia Hongling,Zhang Yongchen,and Wang Xilin.A total of 277 journals published relevant articles,with the Shanghai Journal of Acupuncture and Moxibustion being the most prolific.Research institutions were primarily represented by Tianjin University of Traditional Chinese Medicine and Hubei University of Chinese Medicine.The number of institutions in this field was large and widely distributed,yet independent.Due to geographical and other factors,cross-regional collaborations were limited.Keyword co-occurrence analysis revealed that,apart from"cervical spondylosis of vertebral artery type",the most frequently occurring terms included cervical spondylosis,acupuncture,tuina,acupuncture therapy,electroacupuncture,vertigo,hemodynamics,therapeutic effect,acupotomy,and warm needling.Cluster analysis mainly identified different acupuncture therapies,acupoint selection patterns,and clinical research related to CSA.Conclusion Clinical research on acupuncture for CSA is active,but mechanistic studies remain relatively insufficient.Future research should focus on elucidating the underlying mechanisms to provide new insights.Additionally,studies in this field are highly fragmented,lacking extensive collaboration among authors and institutions.Research teams should strengthen cooperation and diversify their approaches to further advance the study of acupuncture for CSA.
