ObjectiveTo analyze the research status, hotspots and development trends in the application of virtual reality (VR) technology in managing negative emotions and postoperative rehabilitation of perioperative patients over the past decade. MethodsLiteratures related to the application of VR technology in managing negative emotions and postoperative rehabilitation of perioperative patients were retrieved from Web of Science Core Collection database and CNKI, covering the period from January, 2015 to August, 2025, and CiteSpace 6.3.R1 was used for bibliometric analysis. ResultsA total of 267 English literatures and 130 Chinese literatures were included, with the annual number of publications showing an upward trend. The United States was the country with the largest number of publications in English literatures, and Erasmus University Rotterdam was the institution with the largest number of publications. High-frequency keywords included virtual reality, pain, surgery, anxiety and distraction. Research hotspots mainly focused on functional exercise, negative emotions, pain management and multimodal intervention strategies. English researches were deepening towards virtual reality exposure therapy, mechanism exploration and personalized schemes, while Chinese researches focused more on the verification of rehabilitation effects. ConclusionResearches on the application of VR technology in the management of perioperative patients are rapidly developing, with research hotspots shifting from single technology application to multimodal and personalized integrated intervention. Future research should focus on exploring its intervention mechanisms, personalized schemes and the breadth of cross-departmental applications.

BackgroundObsessive-compulsive disorder （OCD） carries a considerable disability burden. Intolerance of uncertainty （IU） is associated with the severity of obsessive-compulsive symptoms， yet its neural underpinnings remain unclear. The cerebellum has been implicated in uncertainty processing and demonstrates structural and functional abnormalities in OCD， but direct evidence linking its spontaneous activity to the relationship between IU and obsessive-compulsive symptoms is still lacking. ObjectiveTo explore the pathway through which spontaneous cerebellar neural activity mediates the relationship between IU and obsessive-compulsive symptoms in OCD patients， with the aim of providing a new perspective for understanding the neural mechanisms of OCD. MethodsA total of 51 patients with OCD who visited the Mental Health Center outpatient clinic of the General Hospital of Ningxia Medical University from November 2022 to November 2024 and met the diagnostic criteria for OCD according to the International Classification of Diseases， tenth edition （ICD-10）. During the same period， 43 community-based volunteers matched for gender and age were enrolled as the control group. Resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging data were collected from two groups. Amplitude of low-frequency fluctuation （ALFF） analysis was used to compare whole-brain spontaneous neural activity between two groups. Clinical assessments were conducted using the Yale-Brown Obsessive Compulsive Scale （Y-BOCS） and the Intolerance of Uncertainty Scale-12 （IUS-12）. Pearson correlation analysis was used to examine correlations between cerebellar ALFF values and scale scores in OCD patients. Using IU as the independent variable， obsessive-compulsive symptoms as the dependent variable， and ALFF values from between-group difference brain regions as the mediator， Process 4.0 for SPSS 24.0 （model 4） was used to examine the mediating role of these ALFF values between IU and obsessive-compulsive symptoms. The Bootstrap method was used to test the mediation effect. ResultsA total of 47 OCD patients and 40 controls completed this study. Compared with the control group， the OCD group showed decreased ALFF values in the right cerebellar Crus Ⅱ （t=-5.254， FWE-corrected P<0.01）. Correlation analysis revealed that ALFF value in the right cerebellar Crus Ⅱ was negatively correlated with Y-BOCS total score （r=-0.851）， compulsive behavior subscale score （r=-0.647）， IUS-12 total scores （r=-0.617）， and prospective IU subscale scores （r=-0.717） in OCD group （P<0.01）. Prospective IU subscale scores were positively correlated with Y-BOCS total scores （r=0.811） and compulsive behavior subscale score （r=0.535） （P<0.01）. Mediation analysis showed that ALFF value in the right cerebellar Crus Ⅱ region partially mediated the effect of prospective IU on obsessive-compulsive behavior， with a mediation effect of 0.064 （95% CI： 0.004–0.136）， accounting for 24.57% of the total effect. ConclusionPatients with OCD showed reduced spontaneous neural activity in the right cerebellar Crus Ⅱ region， which was significantly associated with IU and obsessive-compulsive symptoms. This region partially mediated the effect of IU on compulsive behaviors. ［Funded by Basic Conditions and Innovation Platform Construction Project of Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region in 2023 （number， 2022YXGCJS001）］

Antibiotic adjuvants offer a promising strategy for restoring antibiotic sensitivity, expanding antibacterial spectra, and reducing required dosages. Previously, compound 15 was identified as a potential adjuvant for Polymyxin B (PB) against multidrug-resistant (MDR) Pseudomonas aeruginosa DK2; however, its clinical utility was hindered by high cytotoxicity, uncertain in vivo efficacy, and an unclear synergetic mechanism. To address these challenges, we synthesized and evaluated a series of novel benzamide derivatives, with A22 emerging as a particularly promising candidate. A22 demonstrated potent synergistic activity to PB, minimal cytotoxicity, improved water solubility, and broad-spectrum synergism of polymyxins against various clinically isolated MDR Gram-negative strains. In vivo studies using Caenorhabditis elegans and mouse models further confirmed the efficacy of A22. Moreover, A22 effectively suppressed the development of PB resistance in Pseudomonas aeruginosa DK2. Mechanistic investigations revealed that A22 enhances polymyxins activity by inducing reactive oxygen species production, reducing ATP levels, increasing NOX activity, and inhibiting biofilm formation, leading to bacterial death. These findings position A22 as a highly promising candidate for the development of polymyxin adjuvants, offering a robust approach to combating MDR Gram-negative bacterial infections.

Persistent and maladaptive drug-related memories represent a key component in drug addiction. Converging evidence from both preclinical and clinical studies has demonstrated the potential efficacy of the memory reconsolidation updating procedure (MRUP), a non-pharmacological strategy intertwining two distinct memory processes: reconsolidation and extinction-alternatively termed "the memory retrieval-extinction procedure". This procedure presents a promising approach to attenuate, if not erase, entrenched drug memories and prevent relapse. The present review delineates the applications, molecular underpinnings, and operational boundaries of MRUP in the context of various forms of substance dependence. Furthermore, we critically examine the methodological limitations of MRUP, postulating potential refinement to optimize its therapeutic efficacy. In addition, we also look at the potential integration of MRUP and neurostimulation treatments in the domain of substance addiction. Overall, existing studies underscore the significant potential of MRUP, suggesting that interventions predicated on it could herald a promising avenue to enhance clinical outcomes in substance addiction therapy.

Objective To explore the differences in neck and lumbar spine injuries among different types of aircraft pilots and the correlation between body surface temperature and the severity of injury.Methods Data were collected by questionnaire surveys and medical examinations.Forty male pilots were selected as research objects,including 14 fighter pilots and 26 helicopter pilots,aged between 28 and 39 years,with a height range of 168 to 178 cm,and a total flight time of 600 to 2 000 h.Infrared thermal imaging was employed for skin temperature.A questionnaire survey was conducted for the assessment of the common site and degree of pain.The relationship between body surface temperature and pain was investigated.Results Fighter pilots mainly complained of discomfort in the neck and scapular region,while helicopter pilots were more likely to experience lower back pain.The skin temperature in the affected regions was significantly higher than that in the surrounding normal regions in both fighter pilots and helicopter pilots(P<0.05).The pain score was positively related with elevated temperature in the affected areas(P<0.05).Conclusion It is found that fighter pilots are more prone to neck and scapular pain,while helicopter pilots are more likely to experience lower back pain.The severity of pain is positively related with increased temperature in the affected areas.Infrared thermal imaging can be used to assess temperature variation at injured sites and the location of training injuries among pilots.

Objective:To investigate expression changes of tumor infiltrating lymphocytes(TILs)and their subtypes CD4+TILs,CD8+TILs,CD20+TILs and Foxp3+TILs in paired tumor samples pre-and post-neoadjuvant chemotherapy(NACT)in high-grade serous ovarian cancer(HGSOC)patients and their association with chemotherapy sensitivity and prognosis.Methods:A total of 40 patients with HGSOC who underwent NACT and interval debulking surgery(IDS)at Fourth Hospital of Hebei Medical University from August 2017 to February 2023 were retrospectively analyzed.CD4+TILs,CD8+TILs,CD20+TILs and Foxp3+TILs expressions in paired tumor samples pre-and post-NACT were detected by immunohistochemical staining.Divided patients into two groups based on KELIM score and platinum sensitivity,expressions of TILs,CD4+TILs,CD8+TILs,CD20+TILs and Foxp3+TILs were compared be-tween two groups,and their correlation with prognosis was analyzed.Results:Density of TILs(P=0.003,P=0.01),CD8+TILs(P<0.001,P=0.014)and CD20+TILs(P<0.001,P=0.003)post-NACT in patients with KELIM scores≥1 and platinum sensitivity were in-creased compared with pre-NACT.In contrast,there was no significant change in density of TILs pre-and post-NACT in patients with KELIM scores<1 and platinum resistance.Patients with high expression of CD8+TILs pre-NACT had longer progression free survival(PFS)and overall survival(OS)than patients with lower expression(P<0.001,P=0.011);patients with high expression of TILs post-NACT showed prolonged median PFS and OS(P<0.001,P=0.009);patients with high expression of CD20+TILs post-NACT showed prolonged median PFS(P=0.005).In multivariate analysis,density of CD8+TILs pre-NACT(HR=0.309,P=0.032),density of TILs post-NACT(HR=0.192,P=0.014),age(HR=2.962,P=0.036)were independent prognostic factors for PFS.Conclusion:Patients with HGSOC who have increased TILs density after NACT are more likely to be platinum sensitive.Expression of TILs,CD8+TILs and CD20+TILs in tumor site can serve as effective prognostic factors in HGSOC patients.

This study investigated the types and distribution of rodents,and the infection status of eight pathogens in the high-altitude areas of western Sichuan,to provide a basis for control of rodent-borne diseases and pathogen surveillance in rodents in the area.From August to November of 2023,rodents were captured through the night method in high-altitude areas of western Sichuan.Nucleic acids were collected from the rodents'livers and lungs,and eight important pathogens were detected:Dabie bandavirus,Han-tavirus,Bartonella,Francisella tularensis,Anaplasma phagocytophilum,Rickettsia mooseri,Orientia tsutsugamushi,and Leptospira interrogans.The chi-square test was used to compare the composition ratios of rodent species and the difference in pathogen positivity rates among groups.A total of 114 rodents of nine species were captured.The dominant species in this area were Apodemus agrarius(22.81%),Apodemus chevrieri(18.42%),Niviventer confucianus(17.54%),Apodemus latronum(16.67%),and Apodemus peninsu-lae(13.16%).Other rodent species included Rattus nitidus(4.39%),Neodon irene(4.39%),Chodsigoa hypsibia(1.75%),and Nivi-venter excelsior(0.88%).Statistically significant differences in rodent species composition were observed among regions,altitudes,and habitats(χ2Region=112.358,P<0.05;χ2Altitude=96.843,P<0.05;χ2Habitat=48.842,P<0.05).The liver and lung pathogen results showed that the positivity rate of Bartonella was highest(29/114),whereas those of the other seven pathogens were 0%-4.39%.Five rodents were co-infected with two or more pathogens,and the composite positivity rate was 4.36%(5/114).Statistically significant differences in the positivity rates were observed for Leptospira interrogans among species(χ2=6.568,P=0.028)and Anaplasma phagocytophilum among habitats(χ2=7.596,P=0.027);however,no significant differences in the positivity rates of other pathogens were found among rodent species,regions,altitudes,habitats,and sexes(P>0.05).Thus,rodent species were abundant in the high-altitude areas of western Sichuan and carried a variety of pathogens.Multiple pathogens showed compound infections,among which the positivity rate of Bartonella was relatively high.The total infection rate of pathogens in living areas was relatively high,and the risk of pathogenesis to the population is greater.Therefore,rodent control and disease monitoring efforts should be strengthened.

Premature ejaculation (PE) is the most common male sexual dysfunction with a high incidence, which seriously affects the relationship between a husband and wife and family harmony. Drug therapy is a first-line treatment for PE patients with premature ejaculation, and has achieved good efficacy, but the clinically available drugs are single and the abandonment rate is high. Coupled with the ineffective treatment of some patients, new drug research and development is imminent. This paper systematically reviews the current status of drug treatment for premature ejaculation, focusing on the research and development of new drugs and research progress in order to provide a reference for clinicians.
