ObjectiveTo address the shortage of high-caliber multidisciplinary professionals in China's rehabilitation engineering field and the prominent issue of "separation between medicine and engineering" in existing curricula, this study introduces the World Health Organization rehabilitation competency framework (RCF) to construct a systematic curriculum system for rehabilitation engineering. MethodsGuided by the four core competency domains of RCF (practice, professionalism, learning and development, management and leadership) and their associated supporting knowledge, the rehabilitation engineering curriculum was restructured into a modular framework, piloted and validated within the Biomedical Engineering (Intelligent Robotics) program at University of Health and Rehabilitation Sciences. ResultsA four-tiered curriculum system comprising General Education-Disciplinary Platform-Professional Core-Diverse Electives with a total of 160 credits was established, achieving precise mapping between competency objectives and course content. The students in the pilot cohort demonstrated outstanding academic performance (50% ranked in the top ten of their major), they also gained a deeper understanding and mastery of interdisciplinary knowledge integrating medicine and engineering. ConclusionThe RCF-based curriculum system effectively promotes the organic integration of medical and engineering knowledge, providing an internationally aligned competency-oriented paradigm for rehabilitation engineering talent cultivation, which holds significant value for broader application.

ObjectiveTo observe the long-term survival outcomes and complications of liver cirrhosis patients with spontaneous portosystemic shunt and type 1 isolated gastric varices (IGV-1) bleeding after secondary endoscopic preventive therapy, and to investigate the independent influencing factors for long-term prognosis. MethodsA total of 70 liver cirrhosis patients with spontaneous portosystemic shunt and IGV-1 bleeding who were admitted to Beijing Ditan Hospital, Capital Medical University, from January 5, 2015 to November 29, 2019 were enrolled as subjects, and related baseline data were collected, including age, sex, etiology, routine blood test results, liver function parameters, renal function parameters, coagulation parameters, Child-Pugh score, and the presence or absence of comorbidities such as cholestasis, hepatocellular carcinoma, thrombosis, ascites, and hepatic encephalopathy. All patients underwent secondary endoscopic preventive therapy for rebleeding and were followed up for 5 years. The primary endpoints were ectopic embolism rate and all-cause mortality rate, and the secondary endpoints were liver-related mortality and liver-related complications. The independent-samples t test or the Mann-Whitney U test was used for comparison of continuous data between groups, and the chi-square test was used for comparison of categorical data between groups. The Cox regression analysis was used to investigate the prognostic factors for 1-, 3-, and 5-year survival time, and the Logistic regression analysis was used to identify the independent risk factors for liver disease-related complications. ResultsThe incidence rate of ectopic embolism was 0% within 5 years of follow-up. The 1-, 3-, and 5-year all-cause mortality rates were 5.7%, 24.3%, and 32.9%, respectively. There were 2 cases of liver-related death in year 1, 8 cases in year 3, and 12 cases in year 5, resulting in a liver disease-related mortality rate of 17.14% (12/70). Compared with the survival group, the death group had significantly higher incidence rates of hepatocellular carcinoma (0.00% vs 17.39%, χ2=8.669, P=0.003) and ascites (38.30% vs 52.17%, χ2=7.272, P=0.026), and compared with the death group, the survival group had significantly lower 5-year incidence rates of rebleeding (10.64% vs 100.00%, χ2=51.383, P<0.001), ascites (8.51% vs 52.17%, χ2=21.574, P<0.001), and hepatic encephalopathy (0.00% vs 21.74%, χ2=12.029, P=0.002). The multivariate Cox regression analysis showed that during the 1-year follow-up, comorbidity with hepatocellular carcinoma before surgery (hazard ratio [HR]=14.601, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 2.049 — 104.098, P=0.007) and PT (HR=1.662, 95%CI: 1.090 — 2.535, P=0.018) were independent risk factors for survival, and HGB level (HR=0.863, 95%CI: 0.747 — 0.998, P=0.046) was a protective factor for prolonged survival; during the long-term follow-up for 3 or 5 years, preoperative comorbidities with hepatocellular carcinoma (3 years: HR=40.174, 95%CI: 8.939 — 180.559, P<0.001; 5 years: HR=26.739, 95%CI: 6.993 — 102.243, P<0.001) and ascites (3 years: HR=3.638, 95%CI: 1.751 — 7.575, P=0.001; 5 years: HR=2.555, 95%CI: 1.419 — 4.598, P=0.002) were independent risk factors for mortality. The Logistic regression analysis showed that during the follow-up for 3 years, comorbidity with ascites before surgery (odds ratio [OR]=0.255, 95%CI: 0.102 — 0.636, P=0.003) was associated with a lower risk of rebleeding, while comorbidity with hepatocellular carcinoma before surgery (OR=16.231, 95%CI: 1.298 — 202.878, P=0.031) was an independent risk factor for rebleeding; prothrombin time was a protective factor against hepatic encephalopathy (OR=0.790, 95%CI: 0.648 — 0.964, P=0.020); during the follow-up for 5 years, aggravation of ascites after surgery (OR=5.578, 95%CI: 1.474 — 21.103, P=0.011) was an independent risk factor for rebleeding, and aggravation of ascites after surgery (OR=175.046, 95%CI: 14.306 — 2 141.909, P<0.001) were independent risk factors for the development of ascites in the future. ConclusionComorbidity with hepatocellular carcinoma before surgery and prothrombin time are independent risk factors for 1-year survival, whereas a high HGB level is a protective factor for increasing 1-year survival. Preoperative comorbidities with hepatocellular carcinoma and ascites are independent risk factors for the long-term prognosis of patients with spontaneous portosystemic shunt and IGV-1 bleeding and can significantly shorten survival time. Preoperative comorbidity with ascites can reduce the occurrence of rebleeding, while postoperative hepatocellular carcinoma and aggravation of ascites after surgery are independent risk factors for rebleeding; aggravation of ascites after surgery is an independent risk factor for the development of ascites in the future.

ObjectiveBased on ultra-high performance liquid chromatography-quadrupole-time-of-flight mass spectrometry(UPLC-Q-TOF-MS/MS), network pharmacology and molecular docking techniques, to explore the pharmacodynamic material basis and mechanism of Renshen Wuweizi Tang in treating spleen-lung Qi deficiency syndrome. MethodsThe chemical components in the decoction of Renshen Wuweizi Tang were systematically characterized and identified by UPLC-Q-TOF-MS/MS, and network pharmacology was used to screen potential active ingredients, collect component targets and gene sets related to spleen-lung Qi deficiency syndrome, and obtain protein interaction relationships through STRING. Cytoscape 3.9.1 was used to construct a "formula-syndrome" association network and calculate topological feature values. Gene ontology(GO) function and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes(KEGG) pathway enrichment analysis were performed on core genes to explore potential pharmacodynamic links, the average shortest path between the formula-drug target network and the pharmacodynamic link gene network was calculated to discover dominant pharmacodynamic links, and MCODE plugin was used to identify core gene clusters from the dominant pharmacodynamic links, which were validated using Gene Expression Omnibus(GEO), and molecular docking was performed between key components and core targets. ResultsOne hundred and thirty-seven components were identified in the negative ion mode, and eighty components were identified in the positive ion mode. After deduplication, a total of 185 components were identified, mainly composed of triterpenoid saponins(49) and flavonoids(54). Based on the "formula-syndrome" correlation network analysis, energy metabolism was determined to be the dominant pharmacodynamic link of Renshen Wuweizi Tang in the treatment of spleen-lung Qi deficiency syndrome. The results of molecular docking showed that 7 components(adenosine, atractylenolide Ⅱ, atractylenolide Ⅲ, ginsenoside Rg1, glycyrrhizin B2, glycyrrhizin E2 and campesterol) from 4 medicinal materials(Ginseng Radix et Rhizoma, Atractylodis Macrocephalae Rhizoma, Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma and Poria) in this formula might regulate energy metabolism by acting on 6 targets, namely cyclic adenosine monophosphate-response element binding protein 1(CREB1), glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase(GAPDH), interleukin(IL)-6, nuclear transcription factor(NF)-κB1, peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor α(PPARα), and tumor necrosis factor(TNF), thus improving the symptoms of diseases related to spleen-lung Qi deficiency syndrome. ConclusionThis study established a UPLC-Q-TOF-MS/MS for rapid characterization and identification of chemical components in the decoction of Renshen Wuweizi Tang, expanding the understanding of the material composition of this formula, and found that 7 components might act on the key advantageous pharmacodynamic link "energy metabolism" through 6 targets to improve the related symptoms of spleen-lung Qi deficiency syndrome. This can provide a reference for the subsequent exploration of the material benchmark and mechanism of the famous classical formula.

This study investigated the therapeutic effects of a low-dose phage cocktail combined with antibiotics on burn wounds in-fected with multidrug resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa.Given the risk of sepsis caused by drug-resistant bacteria infection after burns and the limitations of antibiotic monotherapy,we constructed a mouse model of burns combined with Pseudomonas aeruginosa infection.A saline control group,phage cocktail monotherapy group,antibiotic monotherapy group,and combined treatment group were examined.The combined treatment group showed a synergistic effect on the 7th day after infection:this group of mice had a sig-nificantly lower pathogenic bacterial load in the skin and liver tissues than observed in the single drug treatment group,and showed the strongest bacterial clearance effect.Histopathological analysis indicated improved structural integrity of the skin tissue,as well as decreased infiltration of inflammatory cells,and no obvious tissue damage,in the combined treatment group.Detection of serum in-flammatory factors indicated that the levels of the pro-inflammatory factors IL-6 and TNF-α significantly decreased,whereas the level of anti-inflammatory factor IL-10 significantly increased.The combination of low-dose phage cocktail and antibiotics synergistically en-hanced antibacterial activity and ameliorated infection through a dual mechanism of direct removal of pathogens and regulation of the host immune response.Our findings provide an experimental basis for the optimal treatment of wounds infected with multidrug-resistant bacteria.

Body weight abnormalities, including overweight, obesity, and underweight, have become a dual public health challenge in Chinese adults: overweight and obesity lead to a variety of chronic complications, while underweight increases the risks of malnutrition, sarcopenia, and organ dysfunction. To systematically address these issues, multidisciplinary experts in endocrinology, sports science, nutrition, and psychiatry from various regions have held multiple weight management seminars. Based on the latest epidemiological data and clinical evidence, they expanded the guideline to include assessment and intervention strategies for underweight, in addition to the core content of obesity management. This guideline outlines the etiological mechanisms, evaluation methods, and multidimensional management strategies for overweight and obesity, covering key areas such as diagnosis and assessment, medical nutrition therapy, exercise prescription, pharmacological intervention, and psychological support. It is intended to provide a scientific and standardized approach to weight management across the adult population, aiming to curb the rising prevalence of obesity, mitigate complications associated with abnormal body weight, and improve nutritional status and overall quality of life.

Objective:To compare the surface electromyography characteristics of essential tremor (ET), Parkinson′s disease (PD) and essential tremor-Parkinson′s disease syndrome (ET-PD).Methods:A total of 74 patients [ET group ( n=23), PD group ( n=30), and ET-PD group ( n=21)] admitted to the Parkinson′s and Movement Disorders Center of the Department of Neurology of Xuanwu Hospital from August 2020 to December 2023 were enrolled, and results of their bilateral upper limbs surface electromyography (sEMG) were collected. sEMG activities were analyzed offline. Power spectral analysis was performed to explore the sEMG activities. One-way analysis of variance and chi-square test were used to compare the differences of electrophysiological parameters. Results:For the ET group characterized by postural tremor, the frequency was (6.06±0.68) Hz, the amplitude was (1 200.91±360.69) μV, the proportion of alternating contractions was 30.4% (7/23), and the proportion of harmonic resonances was 34.8% (8/23). For the PD group characterized by rest tremor, the frequency was (4.81±0.61) Hz, the amplitude was (1 057.40±354.52) μV, the proportion of alternating contractions was 73.3% (22/30), and the proportion of harmonic resonances was 70.0% (21/30). For the ET-PD group in rest and postural state respectively, the frequencies were (5.04±0.44) Hz and (5.80±0.47) Hz, the amplitudes were (1 026.05±191.90) μV and (1 196.67±212.12) μV, the proportions of alternating contractions were 52.4% (11/21) and 38.1% (8/21), and the proportions of harmonic resonances were 52.4% (11/21) and 33.3% (7/21). Analysis of variance revealed that tremor frequencies for the PD group and the ET-PD group in rest state were lower than the ET group and the ET-PD group in postural state ( F=27.439, P<0.001). The proportion of alternating contractions for the PD group was higher than the ET group ( χ 2=9.669, P=0.002) and the ET-PD group in postural state ( χ 2=6.333, P=0.012). The proportion of harmonic resonances for the PD group was higher than the ET group ( χ 2=6.517, P=0.011) and the ET-PD group in postural state ( χ 2=6.708, P=0.010). No statistically significant differences were found for tremor amplitudes among all the groups ( F=2.143, P=0.100). Conclusions:ET is characterized by postural tremors, with a higher frequency and a lower alternating contractions and harmonic resonances. PD is characterized by rest tremors, with a lower frequency and a higher alternating contractions and harmonic resonances. The parameters of ET-PD are between ET and PD, which provide objective evidences for differential diagnosis of tremors.
