Objective To investigate the prevalence, distribution characteristics, and influencing factors of mental health problems among the elderly, and to provide a scientific basis for policy-making.  Methods A convenience sampling method was used to investigate depression, anxiety, and cognitive function among permanent residents aged 65 and older at 59 mental health care sites for the elderly in Hubei Province. Multinomial logistic regression was employed to analyze influencing factors. Results The screening rates for depression, anxiety, and cognitive function at critical/high-risk levels among the elderly in Hubei Province were 9.7%, 5.4%, and 12.2%, respectively. Urban elderly had lower risks of depression and cognitive function at critical/high-risk levels compared to rural elderly (OR for critical depression = 0.640, P < 0.001; OR for high-risk depression = 0.595, P = 0.012; OR for critical cognitive function = 0.448, P < 0.001; OR for high-risk cognitive function = 0.188, P < 0.001). Six key population groups had higher risks of depression, anxiety, and cognitive function at critical/high-risk levels than others (OR for critical depression = 1.463, P < 0.001; OR for high-risk depression = 1.912, P < 0.001; OR for critical anxiety = 1.462, P < 0.001; OR for high-risk anxiety = 2.882, P < 0.001; OR for critical cognitive function = 1.381, P < 0.001; OR for high-risk cognitive function = 2.345, P < 0.001). A higher number of chronic diseases was associated with increased risks of critical and high-risk depression (OR for critical = 1.316, P < 0.001; OR for high-risk = 3.677, P < 0.001) and cognitive impairment (OR for critical depression = 1.316, P < 0.001; OR for high-risk depression = 3.677, P < 0.001; OR for critical anxiety = 1.512, P < 0.001; OR for high-risk anxiety = 1.801, P < 0.001). Conclusion It is recommended to expand mental health care sites in rural areas, improve the layout of mutual-support elderly care facilities, and explore sustainable models for rural elderly care. Efforts should also focus on enhancing social participation among the elderly through community-based activities, and strengthening cognitive screening and emotional regulation interventions, with particular attention to the mental health needs of older, isolated, and chronically ill individuals.

OBJECTIVE:Some studies have shown that physical exercise can effectively improve knee extensor strength and cardiorespiratory function in burn patients;some studies have also shown that physical exercise is not effective in improving respiratory function in burn patients.Improvement effects of physical exercise on physical functions(muscle function,walking function,cardiopulmonary function,and lean body mass)of burn patients were evaluated by a systematic evaluation and meta-analysis.METHODS:Based on databases including Web of Science,PubMed,Embase,Cochrane Library,CNKI,WanFang,and the Chinese Biomedical Database,literature on the improvement of physical function in burn patients through physical exercise was searched using subject headings and free terms.With muscle function,walking ability,cardiopulmonary function,and lean body mass as the primary outcome measures,a meta-analysis was conducted to compare the efficacy of physical exercise with traditional physical therapy or conventional care methods.RESULTS:A total of 38 papers were included,of which 26 papers were included in the meta-analysis,involving 1 658 patients.Meta-analysis results showed that:(1)Physical exercise significantly enhances the knee extensor strength of the dominant leg in burn patients(mean difference[MD]=8.34,95％confidence interval[CI]:6.95-9.72,P＜0.000 01),increases quadriceps strength,peak oxygen uptake,forced vital capacity and maximum ventilation volume in 1 second,and resting heart rate(standardized mean difference[SMD]=4.41,95％CI:2.52-6.30,P＜0.000 01;MD=4.91,95％CI:3.52-6.29,P＜0.000 01;MD=5.86,95％CI:0.09-11.63,P=0.05;MD=6.90,95％CI:2.93-10.87,P=0.000 7;MD=5.03,95％CI:1.45-8.61,P=0.006),and improves the 6-minute walking distance,gait parameters,and total lean body mass(MD=45.29,95％CI:24.7-65.89,P＜0.0001;SMD=7.84,95％CI:6.05-9.63,P＜0.000 01;MD=2.47,95％CI:2.01-2.93,P＜0.000 01).(2)The subgroup analysis results indicated that the improvement in knee extensor strength of the dominant leg may be better in children than in adults and better in the extra-heavy group than in the heavy group.Improvement in the 6-minute walking distance is better in children than in adults,and higher degree of burn indicates better improvement effects,with no difference from the control group for＜12 weeks.Peak oxygen uptake may be better in adults and severe burn groups than in children and moderate burn groups,resistance combined with aerobic exercise modalities may be better than aerobic exercise alone,and exercise duration＞60 minutes may be better than＜60 minutes.CONCLUSION:Physical activity is effective in improving physical function in burn patients,as evidenced by improvements in muscle strength,walking ability,cardiorespiratory fitness,and lean body mass.The quality of evidence recommended for all indicator results is moderate or below,with imprecision and inconsistency being the main factors for downgrading.Therefore,more high-quality randomized controlled trials are needed in the future to verify the reliability of the results.

ObjectiveTo analyze the epidemiological and clinical characteristics of the 21 confirmed monkeypox cases in a district of Chengdu City, and to provide scientific guidance for the prevention and control of subsequent monkeypox epidemics. MethodsData of confirmed monkeypox cases residing in this district were collected from the Disease Control and Prevention Information System of China. A retrospective descriptive epidemiological analysis was used to analyze the demographic, distributional and behavioral characteristics of the cases. ResultsThe first confirmed case of monkeypox was reported on July 5, 2023. Up to April 30, 2025, a total of 21 confirmed cases of monkeypox have been reported. All cases were male, with a mean age of (30.9±6.2) years. The highest proportion of cases(47.62%) was in the 30‒40 years age group. The majority were men who have sex with men (MSM) population (90.48%, 19/21). The results showed that 19.05% of cases were co-infected with HIV, and 19.05% had a history of syphilis infection. Within 21 days prior to symptom onset, 19 cases (90.48%) self-reported engaging in male-to-male sexual contact, among whom 10 cases (52.63%) reported having taken protective measures, while 9 cases (47.37%) did not take safety precautions. Thirteen cases (61.90%) had no travel history to areas with reported monkeypox cases during the 21 days before symptom onset. The predominant manifestation was exanthem (100%, 21/21), followed by fever (57.14%, 12/21) and lymphadenectasis (47.62%, 10/21). Among febrile cases, 50.00% (6/12) had low-grade fever (37.3‒38.0 ℃). All cases were identified through active medical consultation. The median interval from symptom onset to the first medical visit was 3 (2, 6) days, with a maximum interval of 14 days. The median interval from symptom onset to laboratory confirmation was 7 (5, 9) days. Six cases (28.57%) had two or more visits to the hospital, with bacterial infection being the primary initial diagnosis. ConclusionMonkeypox prevention and control efforts in a district of Chengdu City should prioritize MSM population and young and middle-aged adults aged 30 to <40 years. It is recommended to establish an integrated monkeypox epidemic prevention and control network by leveraging existing HIV/AIDS prevention and control network. Concurrently, accelerating the deployment of the national intelligent infectious disease monitoring and early warning front-end software will strengthen early detection capabilities and be beneficial for the overall effectiveness of epidemic prevention and control efforts.

Objective: To elucidate the pharmacological material basis of Danggui Buxue Decoction for its "blood-tonifying" effect through spectrum-effect relationship analysis.
Methods: The chemical constituents of Danggui Buxue Decoction were qualitatively analyzed using liquid chromatography-quadrupole-orbitrap mass spectrometry (LC-QE/MS). An ultra-performance liquid chromatography (UPLC) fingerprint of Danggui Buxue Decoction was established, and the common peaks of 30 batches of self-made Danggui Buxue Decoction were quantitatively analyzed. A zebrafish anemia model induced by phenylhydrazine was established, and the spectrum-effect relationship analysis method was applied to correlate the pharmacological data of 30 batches of Danggui Buxue Decoction with the fingerprint data to screen for its pharmacological material basis.
Results: A total of 90 prototype components were identified in the qualitative analysis of Danggui Buxue Decoction. The UPLC fingerprint of Danggui Buxue Decoction and the zebrafish anemia model were successfully established. The spectrum-effect relationship analysis of the pharmacological data and fingerprint data of 30 batches of Danggui Buxue Decoction revealed that the pharmacological materials of Danggui Buxue Decoction included 4-guanidinobutanoic acid (from Astragalus), isoleucine (from wine-prepared Angelica), lauric acid (from wine-prepare Angelica), ferulic acid (from both wine-prepared Angelica and Astragalus), 6-methoxy-2H-chromen-2-one (from both wine-prepared Angelica and Astragalus), sophoraisoflavone glucoside (from both wine-prepared Angelica and Astragalus), and an unknown peak 8.
Conclusion: This study screened the pharmacological material basis of Danggui Buxue Decoction through qualitative and quantitative analysis of its prototype chemical constituents combined with spectrum-effect relationship analysis, providing scientific support for the clinical application and secondary development of this classic prescription.

Objective To investigate the antibody levels against measles, rubella, and mumps in infants aged 0-8 months in Shanghai, and construct a decay trend model, and to provide evidence for formulating prevention and control strategies. Methods Serum samples were collected from infants aged 0 - 8 months at a children's medical center in Shanghai. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was used to measure the IgG antibody levels against measles, rubella, and mumps. The antibody positive rates and antibody geometric mean concentration (GMC) in different age groups were analyzed. Results A total of 922 serum samples were collected. The GMC and positive rates for measles, rubella, and mumps antibodies were 2.11 (127.35 IU·L^-1) and 39.70%; 0.89 (7.89 IU·mL^-1) and 28.85%; and 1.89 (77.80 U·mL^-1) and 41.43%, respectively. There were statistically significant differences in antibody levels and positive rates across different age groups. With the highest levels observed at 0 months, a rapid decline began at 3 months, reaching the lowest levels by 7 months. After the first dose of the MMR vaccine at 8 months, antibody levels increased. A negative correlation was observed between age and GMC for measles, rubella, and mumps antibodies, showing a linear decay trend. The models were as follows: Ŷmeasles = −0.151X + 2.602 (R²=0.91，P＜0.001); Ŷrubella = −0.126X + 1.319(R²=0.98，P＜0.001); Ŷmumps = −0.122X + 2.327 (R²=0.94，P＜0.001). Conclusion The antibody levels for measles, rubella, and mumps in infants decline linearly with increasing age in months. The antibody levels in infants before 8 months of age primarily depend on maternal antibodies. It is recommended that MMR vaccination be promoted for women of childbearing age to enhance early passive immunity protection in infants.

Objective To investigate the expression levels of microRNA-152-3p(miR-152-3p)and sex determining region-box transcription factor 5(SOX5)in gastric cancer(GC)tissues and their clinical significance.Methods A total of 120 GC patients were selected as study subjects.Re-al-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction(qRT-PCR)was used to detect the expression levels of miR-152-3p and SOX5,and their relationships with the clinicopathological characteristics of GC pa-tients were analyzed.The Kaplan-Meier method was applied to draw survival curves,and the Cox re-gression model was used to screen the prognostic influencing factors of GC patients.Results The ex-pression level of miR-152-3p in GC tissues was lower than that in adjacent non-cancerous tissues,while the expression level of SOX5 was higher than that in adjacent non-cancerous tissues(P＜0.05).The expressions of miR-152-3p and SOX5 in GC tissues were all associated with lymph node metastasis,degree of differentiation,and TNM stage(P＜0.05).The expression level of miR-152-3p was negatively correlated with that of SOX5(r=-0.512,P＜0.05),and there were targeted binding sites between miR-152-3p and SOX5.The 5-year specific survival rate of the low miR-152-3p expression group was lower than that of the high miR-152-3p expression group(60.53％versus 84.09％,x2=7.256,P＜0.05).The 5-year specific survival rate of the high SOX5 expression group was 63.10％,which was lower than 83.33％of the low SOX5 expression group,with a statis-tically significant difference(x2=4.840,P＜0.05).Multivariate Cox regression analysis showed that the expression levels of miR-152-3p and SOX5,as well as the TNM stage,were all independent prog-nostic influencing factors for GC patients(P＜0.05).Conclusion Low expressions of miR-152-3p and high expression of SOX5 are observed in GC tissues,and their expression levels are closely re-lated to clinicopathological characteristics such as TNM stage and patients' prognosis.

Objective:To investigate the differences in clinical characteristics and antibiotic resistance of neonatal sepsis（NS）caused by different Gram-staining pathogens.Methods:A retrospective study was conducted on confirmed NS cases admitted to the Neonatal Ward of the Pediatric Department at The First Affiliated Hospital of Dali University，from June 1，2014，to May 31，2024.Patients were divided into Gram-positive and Gram-negative groups based on blood or cerebrospinal fluid（CSF）culture results.Clinical characteristics，pathogen distribution，and antibiotic resistance were compared between the two groups.Results:A total of 98 cases were included，with 81 in the Gram-positive group and 17 in the Gram-negative group.Multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that NS cases with a high neutrophil percentage（ OR=0.933，95% CI：0.899-0.969）or hemorrhagic symptoms/signs（ OR=0.059，95% CI：0.008-0.458）were less likely to have Gram-positive pathogens detected in blood or CSF cultures（ P<0.05）.Common Gram-positive pathogens included Staphylococcus epidermidis with 35 strains（33.65%）and Staphylococcus hominis with 22 strains（21.15%）.The predominant Gram-negative pathogen was Escherichia coli with 14 strains（13.46%）.Gram-positive pathogens exhibited high resistance to oxacillin（91.30%），erythromycin（90.91%），and penicillin G（90.00%），but low resistance to tigecycline（0），linezolid（0），and vancomycin（0）.Gram-negative pathogens showed high resistance to ampicillin（92.31%），cefazolin（90.00%），and ampicillin/sulbactam（75.00%），but low resistance to amikacin（6.25%），latamoxef（0），and ertapenem（0）.The incidence of concurrent purulent meningitis was lower in the Gram-positive group than in the Gram-negative group（9.88% vs.47.06%， χ2=11.628， P<0.05），and there was significant difference. Conclusion:NS cases with high neutrophil percentages or hemorrhagic symptoms/signs are less likely to be caused by Gram-positive pathogens.Staphylococcus epidermidis and Staphylococcus hominis are common Gram-positive pathogens，while Escherichia coli is the predominant Gram-negative pathogen in NS.Both Gram-positive and Gram-negative pathogens exhibit resistance to specific antibiotics.NS caused by Gram-positive pathogens is less likely to be complicated by purulent meningitis compared to those caused by Gram-negative pathogens.

Objective To investigate the relationship between the morphology and elasticity of the levator ani muscle(LAM)and stress urinary incontinence(SUI),and to develop a multimodal diagnostic model for SUI based on LAM morphology and elasticity parameters,while evaluating the diagnostic performance of this model.Methods From September 2020 to September 2022,147 female patients with SUI from the Affiliated Hospital of North China University of Science and Technology were enrolled as the SUI group(case group),while 144 women without SUI during the same period were selected as the non-SUI group(control group).Transperineal ultrasonography was conducted to measure the anteroposterior diameter(LH-A1)and transverse diameter(LH-D1)of the levator hiatus at rest,the resting area of the levator hiatus(LA1),as well as the anteroposterior diameter(LH-A2),transverse diameter(LH-D2),and area(LA2)of the levator hiatus during the maximum Valsalva maneuver.Addi-tionally,ultrasonography was used to observe LAM injury(LA-MI)during pelvic muscle contraction.Shear wave elastography(SWE)was also performed transperineally to record the elastic modulus values of the puborectalis muscle at rest(E1)and during pelvic muscle contraction(E3).The differences in ultrasound parameters between the two groups were compared,and a logistic regression model was constructed for multivariate analysis to establish a diagnostic model for SUI.The goodness of fit of the logistic regression model was assessed using the Hosmer-Lemeshow test.The diagnostic performance of individual indicators and the diagnostic model for SUI was evaluated using the receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve.Finally,the clinical utility of the model was assessed using decision curve analysis.Results There were statistically significant differences in age,BMI,LH-A1,LH-D1,LA1,LH-A2,LH-D2,LA2,LA-MI,E1,and E3 between the two groups(P<0.05).Multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that age,BMI,LH-A1,LA2,LA-MI,E1,and E3 were significantly associated with SUI(P<0.05).Based on these findings,a diagnostic model for SUI was established:PRESUI=0.261×age+0.904×BMI-4.300×LH-A1+1.166×LA2-2.815×LA-MI+0.587×E1-0.631×E3-1.258.The model demon-strated excellent goodness-of-fit(P=0.983).The ROC curve analysis indicated that age,BMI,LH-A1,LA2,LA-MI,E1,and E3 all exhibited diagnostic efficacy for SUI(AUC>0.500,P<0.05).Notably,the AUC of the constructed diagnostic model for SUI was 0.996(95%CI:0.992～1.000),suggesting that the diagnostic accuracy of the model surpassed that of individual indicators.When the cut-off value of the diagnostic model was set at 0.437,the sensitivity reached 98.0%,and the specificity was 97.2%.Furthermore,the decision curve analysis demon-strated that the diagnostic model provided substantial net clinical benefit within the threshold probability range of 0.1 to 1.0.Conclusions The morphology and elasticity of the LAM are significantly altered in women with SUI.The SWE technique demonstrates potential application value for quantitatively assessing the elasticity of the LAM.Furthermore,the diagnostic model constructed based on age,BMI,LH-A1,LA2,LA-MI,E1,and E3 exhibits high clinical application value.

Objective:To study the effect of anthocyanins(C3G)on cuproptosis in chronic epileptic rats.Methods:Chronic epileptic rat model was induced by pentatetrazol(PTZ),and 90 SD rats were randomly divided into control group,PTZ group,elesclomol(ELC)group,tetrathiomolybdate(TTM)group,C3G group and ELC+C3G group.The grade,latency and frequency of seizures were recorded in each group.electroencephalogram(EEG)was used to detect abnormal electrical discharge in the brain.The action potential of hippocampal neurons was measured by patch-clamp technique.The contents of glutathione(GSH)and cuprous ions(Cu+)in hippocampus were determined by kit.Neuron damage in hippocampus was evaluated by Nissl staining.The expression of ferredoxin1(FDX1)and lipoic acid synthase(LIAS)in hippocampus was analyzed by immunohistochemistry and Western blot.Results:Compared with the control group,the rats in the PTZ group exhibited epileptic-like seizures,suggesting that the modeling was successful.Com-pared with other epileptic groups,the ELC group showed increased seizure grade,more abnormal discharges,shortened latency period,enhanced neuronal excitability,decreased Nissl particles,elevated Cu+levels,decreased GSH levels,and increased expressions of FDX1 and LIAS.The reverse was observed in C3G group(P＜0.05).Neuron damage in ELC+C3G group was less severe than that in ELC group,but more than that in PTZ group(P＜0.05).Neuron dam-age in TTM group was less severe than that in PTZ group,but more severe than that in C3G group(P＜0.05).Conclusion:cuproptosis exists in hippocampus of rats with chronic epilepsy,and the C3G can significantly inhibit cu-proptosis and alleviate the occurrence and development of chronic epilepsy.
