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.

Objective:To investigate the cognitive level of wearing and removing personal protective equipment in COVID-19 isolation wards of Wuhan Fangcang shelter hospital, and provide the scientific basis for the training of hospital protection. Methods:Cognitive level of wearing and removing personal protective equipment in Wuhan Fangcang shelter hospital were investigated by using a questionnaire which included 14 related scales, including putting on and off protective equipment, hand hygiene disinfection and so on.Results:The total scale score of non-medical workers was 48.82±9.65, which was lower than the total scale score of doctors (55.46±1.29) and nurses (55.0±2.36), P<0.05. The each score of 14 items in the scale of non-medical workers was all lower than those of doctors and nurses ( P<0.05). There were no significant differences in scale scores among doctors, nurses and medical technicians. The total score of the scale of non-medical workers in later period was 55.23±3.26, which was significantly higher than the total score of 44.50±10.14 in previous period, P<0.001. The total score of nurses and medical technicians in the later period was higher than those in the previous period, and the difference was statistically significant. There was no significant difference between the total score of the scale in the later period and that in the previous period. Conclusions:The cognition level of non-medical workers on wearing and removing personal protective devices was lower than those of doctors and nurses, strengthening the practice could improve cognition.
