Objective To investigate the post-discharge exercise behavior and factors influencing moderate to vigorous intensity physical activity (MVPA) in patients undergoing lung surgery. Methods A total of 2874 patients from the large prospective, observational perioperative lung symptom study cohort (CN-PRO-Lung 3) in the Department of Thoracic Surgery at Sichuan Cancer Hospital between April 7, 2021, and January 31, 2024, were selected as the survey subjects. A survey was conducted using the Investigation of Exercise Behavior after Lung Surgery questionnaire and the International Physical Activity Questionnaire-Short Form (IPAQ-SF) among patients who underwent lung surgery. Binary logistic regression was used to analyze the factors influencing patients’ engagement in MVPA. Results A total of 702 patients were surveyed, including 252 males and 450 females, with an average age of (52.4±10.2) years. Patients with lung cancer accounted for 85.9%. Only 36.0% of the patients had regular exercise habits, while 42.3% did not engage in any physical activity. The three main barriers for postoperative exercise were physical discomfort (pain, coughing, shortness of breath, etc, 54.7%), lack of professional guidance (41.7%), and concerns about the surgical wound (28.9%). The proportions of patients engaging in vigorous, moderate, and low-intensity physical activity were 5.7%, 28.2%, and 66.1%, respectively. Multivariate analysis showed that patients with a personal annual income ≥50000 yuan (OR=1.52, 95%CI 1.01-2.29, P=0.044), high school education or above (OR=1.92, 95%CI 1.33-2.76, P<0.001), and lobectomy (OR=1.44, 95%CI 1.02-2.03, P=0.037) engaged in more MVPA. Conclusion Patients undergoing lung surgery have inadequate physical activity after discharge, particularly lacking in MVPA. Patients with higher income, higher educational levels, and lobectomy are more frequently engaged in MVPA. Measures such as symptom control, providing exercise guidance, and enhancing education on wound care may potentially improve the inadequate physical activity in lung surgery patients after discharge.

Objective: To establish a prediction model for high-risk cardiovascular disease (CVD) among residents aged 35 to 75 years, so as to provide the basis for improving CVD prevention and control measures. Methods: Permanent residents aged 35 to 75 years were selected from Dongcheng District, Beijing Municipality using the stratified random sampling method from 2018 to 2023. Demographic information, lifestyle, waist circumference and blood biochemical indicators were collected through questionnaire surveys, physical examinations and laboratory tests. Influencing factors for high-risk CVD among residents aged 35 to 75 years were identified using a multivariable logistic regression model, and a prediction model for high-risk CVD was established. The predictive effect was evaluated using the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve. Results: A total of 6 968 individuals were surveyed, including 2 821 males (40.49%) and 4 147 females (59.51%), and had a mean age of (59.92±9.33) years. There were 1 155 high-risk CVD population, with a detection rate of 16.58%. Multivariable logistic regression analysis showed that gender, age, smoking, central obesity, systolic blood pressure, fasting blood glucose, triglyceride and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol were influencing factors for high-risk CVD among residents aged 35 to 75 years (all P<0.05). The area under the ROC curve of the established prediction model was 0.849 (95%CI: 0.834-0.863), with a sensitivity of 0.693 and a specificity of 0.863, indicating good discrimination. Conclusion The model constructed by eight factors including demographic characteristics, lifestyle and blood biochemical indicators has good predictive value for high-risk CVD among residents aged 35 to 75 years.

Objective:This study evaluates the horizontal sound localization ability of young and middle-aged individuals with symmetric sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL) in noisy environments. It also examines the impact of hearing loss severity and signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) on localization accuracy.Methods:In this cross-sectional study, conducted from April 2023 to April 2024, 135 young and middle-aged patients (73 males and 62 females, aged 18-60 years) with SNHL who sought care at Beijing Chaoyang Hospital, were categorized into mild, moderate, and moderate-to-severe hearing loss groups (45 per group), with 45 normal-hearing controls (23 males and 22 females, aged 20-60 years). Participants completed localization tasks in quiet and noisy environments with SNR levels of 5 dB, 0 dB, -5 dB, and-10 dB. Root mean square error (RMSE) was used to measure localization accuracy. Repeated measures ANOVA assessed the effects of hearing loss and SNR on RMSE, while, Pearson correlation evaluated the relationship between binaural 4-frequency pure-tone average (4fPTA) and RMSE. Multiple linear regression analyzed the predictive role of 4fPTA and age.Results:(1) Two-way repeated measures ANOVA showed that both hearing loss severity and SNR significantly affected RMSE ( F=92.67, P<0.01; F=430.29, P<0.01), with a significant interaction between the two factors( F=92.67, P<0.01). (2) RMSE increased with hearing loss severity. At SNRs of 5 dB, 0 dB, and-5 dB, the moderate-to-severe group had significantly higher RMSE than the mild and moderate groups ( P<0.01). No significant differences were found between mild and moderate groups ( P=0.53, 0.57, 0.22). At-10 dB SNR, significant differences were observed across all groups ( P<0.01). (3) RMSE increased non-linearly as SNR decreased. Mean RMSE values under quiet conditions and at SNRs of 5 dB, 0 dB, -5 dB, and-10 dB were (7.43±5.01)°, (9.80±5.74)°, (11.60±6.22)°, (14.56±7.07)°, and (18.74±8.02)°, respectively. (4) RMSE was significantly positively correlated with binaural 4fPTA ( r=0.54-0.58, P<0.01). Multiple linear regression analysis indicated that the binaural average 4fPTA significantly predicted RMSE ( P<0.01), explaining 30.5%-34.1% of RMSE variance. Age did not significantly contribute to RMSE variation. Conclusions:The degree of hearing loss and background noise SNR significantly affect horizontal sound localization in young and middle-aged SNHL patients. RMSE increases with hearing loss severity and decreases with higher SNR. The interaction between hearing loss and SNR is significant, and RMSE correlates with binaural 4fPTA. However, the regression model based on 4fPTA and age explains only part of the RMSE variance, suggesting other contributing factors.

Objective:To explore the independent association between handgrip strength and chronic kidney disease (CKD) in adult residents in Anhui Province using data from the China Adult Chronic Disease and Risk Factor Surveillance (2023).Methods:A multi-stage stratified cluster random sampling method was used to select residents aged ≥18 years for surveys, physical measurements, and laboratory tests. Relevant covariates were adjusted, and a multivariable logistic regression model was established to infer the association between handgrip strength and CKD, followed by subgroup analysis.Results:A total of 7 295 participants were included in the study, with age of (61.5±13.2) years, and 55.6% of the study participants were women. The results of the multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that with each 1.0 kg increase in handgrip strength, the risk for CKD decreased by 1.3% ( OR=0.987, 95% CI: 0.978-0.997). Compared with those with low handgrip strength, the people with moderate hasdgrip strength ( OR=0.818, 95% CI: 0.694-0.964) and high handgrip strength ( OR=0.729, 95% CI: 0.598-0.989) had lower risk for CKD. In the subgroup analysis, the association between handgrip strength and risk for CKD remained unchanged regardless age, sex, smoking status, and alcohol consumption statuys, and the prevalence of hypertension and hyperlipidemia (interaction P>0.05), except BMI and diabetes. Conclusion:The decline in handgrip strength is associated with an increased risk for CKD in adult residents in Anhui.

For middle-aged and elderly patients with conditions such as spinal fractures and degenerative spinal diseases, spinal internal fixation is a core surgical procedure for reconstructing spinal stability, heavily relying on the biomechanical stability provided by pedicle screw systems. Whereas, these patients are often complicated by osteoporosis that can significantly compromise the stability of the bone-pedicle screw interface, leading to a marked increase in pedicle screw loosening and surgical failure rates. The bone cement-augmented pedicle screw technique, which involves injecting bone cement into the vertebral body or screw trajectory to optimize the mechanical properties of the bone-pedicle screw composite, has been proven to significantly enhance fixation strength and effectively prevent screw-related failures, thereby reducing the incidence of internal fixation failure in high-risk populations undergoing spinal fusion. However, the widespread clinical application of this technique has faced challenges such as inaccurate clinical decision-making (indication and contraindication selection), non-standardized operative practices, and insufficient awareness of complication prevention, resulting in considerable variability in clinical outcomes and even severe complications. To address this, Prof. Luo Fei from First Affiliated Hospital of Army Medical University initiated the project and the Chinese Association Orthopaedic Surgeons organized relevant experts to develop the Evidence-based clinical practice guideline for bone cement-augmented pedicle screw technique ( version 2025), based on current evidence. The guidelines put forward 8 recommendations regarding the clinical value, scope of application, and operational standards of the technique, aiming to provide evidence-based medical support and technical standardization for clinical decision-making.
