Objective: To compare the consistency between bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) and dual energy X ray absorptiometry (DXA) in measuring body composition among Tibetan children and adolescents and to explore the applicability of BIA in plateau region, so as to provide scientific and convenient body composition measurement support among children and adolescents. Methods: From May to June, 2022, a total of 344 Tibetan children and adolescents aged 6-17 years were selected from Golmud Municipal National Middle School and Changjiangyuan Nationality Primary School in Qinghai Province by cluster sampling method, and their fat mass, fat mass percentage and lean mass were measured by DXA and BIA. The consistency and correlation between the two methods were assessed by using the Wilcoxon rank-sum test, Spearman correlation analysis, intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC), and Bland-Altman analysis. Results: DXA measured fat mass and fat mass percentage were significantly higher than those obtained by BIA (6-12 years old: Z =9.91, 11.28; 13-17 years old: Z =9.02, 10.21), while lean mass and lean mass percentage were significantly lower than BIA results (6-12 years old: Z =-11.60, -11.30; 13-17 years old: Z =-10.77, -10.36) (all P < 0.05 ). The two methods showed strong correlations in fat mass and lean mass (all r >0.80, all ICC >0.90), but exhibited poor agreement in fat mass percentage and lean mass percentage (6-12 years old: Lin s CCC =0.64, 0.41; 13-17 years old: Lin s CCC = 0.79 , 0.35). Bland-Altman analysis showed that the difference between the two methods was negatively correlated with the average value in FM%(6-12 years old: r =-0.75, 13-17 years old: r =-0.79, both P <0.01). Conclusion BIA and DXA show high consistency in measuring body fat mass and lean body mass in Tibetan children and adolescents, although some bias is still present in certain individuals.

Objective:To investigate the application value of intraoperative electrocochleography（ECochG） monitoring technique and insertion techniques in cochlear implant（CI） and analyze its relationship with postoperative residual hearing（RH） preservation. Methods:Thirty-one patients（35 ears） who received CI in our hospital from June 2022 to July 2024 were enrolled. The Advanced Bionics Active Insertion Monitoring（AIM） system was used for real-time ECochG monitoring during surgery. Intraoperative cochlear microphonics （CM） waveform changes were recorded and analyzed in relation to postoperative RH preservation. Results:①ECochG recordings were successfully obtained in 34 of 35 ears （97.1%）. ②According to Harris classification, there were 7 ears（20.6%） of Type A（rising）, 7 ears（20.6%） of Type C（declining）, 8 ears（23.5%） of Type CC（fluctuating）, and 12 ears（35.3%） of Type D（no response）. ③The total CM amplitude decrease was significantly moderately correlated with postoperative low-mid frequency hearing loss（r=0.67, P=0.017）. The total CM amplitude decrease was significantly moderately correlated with postoperative low frequency hearing loss（r=0.65, P=0.023）. ④For the mean amplitude variation, the Amax was 30.70 μV, the Amin was 8.64 μV, and the Aend was 18.27 μV. ⑤Sixteen cases completed postoperative follow-up, with an average low-mid frequency（125-1 000 Hz） residual hearing loss of 15.25 dB HL and a RH preservation rate of 87.5%. Conclusion:Intraoperative ECochG monitoring can effectively predict postoperative residual hearing changes, effectively guide surgical manipulation, and improve residual hearing preservation rate.

OBJECTIVE: To observe the clinical efficacy of electroacupuncture (EA) at "four points of sacral region" for mild-to-moderate benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) with lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS). METHODS: A total of 58 patients with BPH/LUTS were randomly divided into a sacral four-point EA group (29 cases, 1 case dropped out) and a conventional EA group (29 cases, 1 case dropped out). EA was applied at bilateral points 0.5 cun lateral to the sacrococcygeal joint and Huiyang (BL35) in the sacral four-point EA group; and was applied at Guanyuan (CV4), Zhongji (CV3), Qugu (CV2) and bilateral Shuidao (ST28), Sanyinjiao (SP6), Zusanli (ST36) in the conventional EA group. Both groups received continuous wave, 2 Hz in frequency, 30 min a time, once every other day, 3 times a week for 4 weeks. Before treatment, after 2 and 4 weeks of treatment, and in follow-up of 1 month after treatment completion, the international prostate symptom score (IPSS), the overactive bladder symptom score (OABSS), the quality of life (QOL) score were observed; before and after treatment, the prostate volume (PV) was measured by abdominal ultrasound; and the clinical efficacy was evaluated after treatment in the two groups. RESULTS: Compared before treatment, the scores of IPSS, OABSS and QOL were decreased after 4 weeks of treatment and in follow-up in both groups (P<0.01, P<0.05). In the sacral four-point EA group, the scores of IPSS and QOL after 4 weeks of treatment and in follow-up were lower than those in the conventional EA group (P<0.05, P<0.01), and the OABSS score in follow-up was lower than that in the conventional EA group (P<0.05). After 4 weeks of treatment and in follow-up, the reductions of IPSS and OABSS scores compared before treatment in the sacral four-point EA group were larger than those in the conventional EA group (P<0.01, P<0.05); After 2, 4 weeks of treatment and in follow-up, the reductions of QOL score compared before treatment in the sacral four-point EA group were larger than those in the conventional EA group (P<0.01). No significant difference in PV was observed after treatment between the two groups (P>0.05). The total effective rate was 75.0% (21/28) in the sacral four-point EA group, which was higher than 39.3% (11/28) in the conventional EA group (P<0.01). CONCLUSION EA at "four points of sacral region" can effectively improve the LUTS, overactive bladder symptom and quality of life in patients with mild-to-moderate BPH, and has good short-term and long-term efficacy, although it can not reduce prostate volume.

A 15-year-old boy developed abdominal pain and melena two weeks after COVID-19 infection, which was followed by gross hematuria and proteinuria. Laboratory studies revealed significantly elevated inflammatory markers. Endoscopic examinations showed multiple jejunal and ileal ulcers. Renal biopsy suggested mesangial proliferative glomerulonephritis with crescent formation, necrosis of capillary loops, and mesangial IgA deposits. IgA vasculitis without purpura was considered as a possible diagnosis, and the treatment with prednisone led to remission of both gastrointestinal and renal diseases.

Objective:To investigate the incidence of shoulder work-related musculoskeletal disorders (WMSDs) among occupational population in China, and to explore their intrinsic association with personal and work-related factors.Methods:In April 2024, 73497 valid questionnaires of the Chinese version of the Musculoskeletal Disorders Electronic Questionnaire were retrospectively analyzed from June 2018 to December 2023 in 22 provinces and 29 key industries in China, and the general information, occurrence of WMSDs and related risk factors of key occupational populations in different regions in China were collected. By using Chi-square test and confirmatory factor analysis, the relationship between shoulder fatigue and pain in key occupational groups and individual factors, work type, work posture and work organization was discussed, and the internal relationship was analyzed based on structural equation model.Results:Higher incidence of shoulder fatigue and pain were associated with female, lack of physical exercise, uncomfortable working posture and neck leaning forward ( P<0.05). Structural equation model analysis showed that work type, work posture and work organization were strongly correlated ( r=0.58, 0.55). Work organization and work type were strongly correlated with shoulder fatigue ( r=0.65) and moderately correlated with shoulder fatigue ( r=0.21). Shoulder fatigue was moderately associated with shoulder pain ( r=0.40). Individual factors, work type, work posture and shoulder fatigue could directly affect shoulder pain ( OR=0.07, -0.09, 0.17 and 0.40), and work type and work posture could also indirectly affect shoulder pain through shoulder fatigue ( OR=0.08, 0.03). Work organization only indirectly affected shoulder pain through shoulder fatigue ( OR=0.26) . Conclusion:The main influencing factor of shoulder pain is shoulder fatigue, followed by work posture and individual factors. Structural equation model can better reflect the complex relationship between work type, work posture and work organization and shoulder WMSDs. Improving work posture and work organization may be an effective way to control the influence of shoulder fatigue on shoulder pain.

Objective:To explore the radiological protection measures for yttrium-90 ( 90Y)-loaded resin microsphere therapy in clinical application. Methods:The surgical operation process for 90Y-loaded resin microsphere therapy was simulated, involving measurement of ambient dose equivalent rates at various stages: preoperative preparation (dominated by drug package), drug transfer, intraoperative procedures (drug operation and injection), and postoperative care and observation within the hospital. Based on the simulation, the protection measures in clinical application were analyzed. Results:The dose equivalent rate ranged from 0.12 to 0.42 μSv/h around the active chamber and from 1.04 to 3.32 μSv/h in the fume hood. Around the digital subtraction angiography (DSA) room, the maximum dose equivalent rate was 0.78 μSv/h when 90Y and DSA were applied simultaneously and 0.36 μSv/h when 99Tc m and DSA were applied. For the first operating position in the fluoroscopy protection area, the maximum dose equivalent rate was 13.19 μSv/h at 155 cm height when only 90Y was applied, and 315.01 μSv/h at 80 cm height when 90Y and DSA were applied. For the second operating position, the maximum dose equivalent rate was 6.28 μSv/h at 155 cm height when only 90Y was applied and 291.03 μSv/h at the same height when 90Y and DSA were applied. The dose-equivalent rates ranged from 0.11 to 0.58 μSv/h around the dedicated ward for postoperative patients. Conclusions:The existing shielding measures, such as those in the nuclear medicine department and interventional room, meet the radiation protection requirements for 90Y-loaded resin microsphere therapy. However, it is still necessary to conduct a scientific assessment based on the actual situation. Additionally, radiation protection measures and surface contamination treatment should be enhanced during drug operation.
