BackgroundEmotional disorders in adolescents have emerged as a prominent issue in recent years. Current mainstream clinical assessment approaches for such conditions predominantly rely on interviews and rating scales， which are limited by inherent drawbacks such as high subjectivity and recall bias. Accordingly， there exists an urgent clinical need for the development of objective， quantifiable auxiliary diagnostic tools.In previous studies， frontal electroencephalography （EEG） has demonstrated significant value in assessing depressive and anxiety. However， the lack of standardized quantitative metrics and intuitive visual analytical approaches has severely restricted clinical interpretability of EEG data and diminished patient engagement. To address these key limitations， the present study proposes an innovative analytical framework that converts frontal EEG signals into quantifiable visual metrics to enhance clinical comprehension and acceptance. ObjectiveTo explore the value of frontal EEG in assessing anxiety， depression， and sleep quality in adolescents with emotional disorders， with the aim of providing objective auxiliary tools for clinical diagnosis and assessment of adolescents with emotional disorders. MethodsThis cross-sectional study recruited 105 adolescents aged 12-18 years who visited the outpatient department of a specialized mental hospital in Beijing from April 2023 to April 2024. All participants met the diagnostic criteria for mood （affective） disorders or anxiety disorders in the International Classification of Diseases， tenth edition （ICD-10）. Frontal EEG signals were collected within a big data analytics-driven framework and further processed by EEG system to generate six quantitative cerebral function indices， namely brain load， tension and excitement， emotional stress， sleepiness index， cerebral vitality， and cerebral fatigue. In addition， validated standardized scales， including the Self-rating Anxiety Scale （SAS）， the Self-rating Depression Scale （SDS）， and the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index （PSQI）， were administered for anxiety， depressive symptoms， and sleep quality， respectively. ResultsIn adolescent patients with emotional disorders， the SAS score exhibited significant positive correlations with brain load （r_s=0.328， P<0.01）， emotional stress （r_s=0.341， P<0.01）， and cerebral fatigue （r_s=0.286， P<0.01）. The SDS score was positively correlated with brain load （r_s=0.275， P<0.01）， emotional stress （r_s=0.241， P<0.05）， and cerebral fatigue （r_s=0.311， P<0.01）， while showing a significant negative correlation with cerebral vitality （r_s=-0.212， P<0.05）. Additionally， the PSQI total score demonstrated positive correlations with brain load （r_s=0.340， P<0.01）， emotional stress （r_s=0.322， P<0.01）， and cerebral fatigue （r_s=0.229， P<0.05）. ConclusionFrontal EEG-derived indices， including brain load， emotional stress， cerebral fatigue and cerebral vitality， may serve as objective markers for reflecting anxiety， depression， and sleep quality in adolescents with emotional disorders. ［Funded by Beijing High level Innovation and Entrepreneurship Talent Support Program （number， 202504841041）； Horizontal Joint Project］

BackgroundStressful life events are associated with subclinical depressive and anxious symptoms， which may increase the risk of subsequent depressive and anxiety disorders. However， the mechanisms linking stressful life events to subclinical emotional symptoms remain unclear. ObjectiveTo explore the clinical characteristics of individuals with subclinical depression and anxiety following stressful events， and to analyze the mechanisms by which stressful events affect subclinical depressive and anxious symptoms， so as to provide a reference for the early identification and intervention of emotional symptoms in individuals under stress. MethodsFrom December 2024 to April 2025， 80 individuals with subclinical depression and/or anxiety （study group） and 80 healthy controls were recruited via the online official accounts of Beijing Anding Hospital， Capital Medical University and Beijing Huilongguan Hospital， Capital Medical University. Participants completed the Patients' Health Questionnaire Depression Scale-9 item （PHQ-9）， the Generalized Anxiety Disorder Scale-7 item （GAD-7）， the Life Event Scale （LES）， the Self-rating Idea of Suicide Scale （SIOSS）， and the Dysfunctional Attitude Scale （DAS）. Spearman rank correlation analysis was used to examine the associations in the study group. Serial mediation analyses were conducted using model 6 of Process version 4.1， to test whether cognitive distortion and hopelessness mediated the associations of stressful life events with subclinical depressive and anxious symptoms. ResultsCompared with healthy controls， participants with subclinical depressive and anxious symptoms had higher scores on PHQ-9， GAD-7， LES， SIOSS hopelessness subscale， and DAS scores （Z/t=10.294， 9.197， 4.659， 6.918， 3.517， P<0.01）. In the study group， GAD-7 score was positively correlated with LES， DAS， and SIOSS hopelessness subscale scores （r_s=0.233， 0.465， 0.588， P<0.05）； SIOSS hopelessness subscale score was positively correlated with DAS and LES scores （r_s=0.393， 0.309， P<0.01） and cognitive distortion was positively correlated with stressful life events（r_s=0.432， P<0.01）. Stressful life events were directly associated with subclinical anxiety symptoms （β=0.040， 95% CI： 0.015–0.065， P<0.05）， and showed a significant serial indirect association with subclinical anxiety symptoms （indirect effect=0.006， 95% CI： 0.001–0.017， P<0.01）， accounting for 7.15% of the total effect. Stressful life associated with subclinical depressive symptoms （β=0.087， 95% CI： 0.060–0.115， P<0.01）， however， the indirect effect through cognitive distortion and hopelessness were not statistically significant. ConclusionAfter experiencing stressful events， individuals with subclinical depression and anxiety exhibit more pronounced cognitive distortions and hopelessness. Stressful events can both directly affect subclinical anxiety symptoms and indirectly affect them through the serial mediating effects of cognitive distortion and hopelessness. Stressful events have a direct effect on subclinical depressive symptoms， whereas the mediating effects of cognitive distortion and hopelessness are no statistically significant. ［Funded by the Training Program for the Development of High-level Public Health Technical Talents （number， Academic Leader-01-22）； www.chictr.org.cn number， ChiCTR2400093516］

[Purpose]To analyze the trends of brain tumor incidence and age of onset in cancer registration areas of Jiangsu Province from 2009 to 2019.[Methods]The incidence data of brain tumors from 2009 to 2019 were obtained from 16 national cancer registration areas of Jiangsu Province.The crude incidence rate,age-standardized incidence rate by Chinese standard popula-tion(ASIRC),average age of onset,standardized age-specific incidence rate,and annual average percentage change(AAPC)by sexes and regions were calculated.[Results]The incidence rate of brain tumor in Jiangsu Province from 2009 to 2019 showed an increasing trend(AAPC=4.12％,95％CI:3.31％～4.95％),and the increase in female(AAPC=5.79％,95％CI:4.44％～7.15％)was higher than that in male(AAPC=2.31％,95％CI:1.66％～2.97％);and the increase in urban areas(AAPC=4.84％,95％CI:3.52％～6.18％)was higher than that in rural areas(AAPC=3.04％,95％CI:2.12％～3.98％).The ASIRC also showed an increasing trend(AAPC=2.14％,95％CI:1.27％～3.02％).Birth cohort analysis showed that within the same age group,the incidence rate of brain tumors increased with increasing birth years.The average age of onset for crude incidence showed a delaying trend of 0.43 years old per year(t=7.09,P＜0.001);that for ASIRC was 0.20 years old per year(t=3.33,P=0.009).The proportion of patients in the age group of 60 years old and above increased from 35.79％in 2009 to 44.18％in 2019.[Conclusion]The incidence of brain tumor in cancer registration areas of Jiangsu Province showed an increasing trend from 2009 to 2019 with a delaying trend of average age of onset.

[Purpose]To analyze the trends of incidence and age at onset of bone malignant tumors in cancer registration areas of Jiangsu Province from 2009 to 2019.[Methods]Incidence data of bone malignant tumors from 2009 to 2019 were collected from 16 consecutive and quality-con-trolled cancer registries in Jiangsu Province.The incidence rates,average age at onset,and inci-dence composition of bone malignant tumors were calculated.A birth cohort model was constructed to analyze the changes in the incidence of bone malignant tumors in the population born from 1929 to 2019.Joinpoint regression models were used to analyze the average annual percentage change(AAPC)in the incidence rates and the incidence composition of bone malignant tumors for each year in those aged 60 years old and above.A general linear regression model was used to ana-lyze the trend of the average age of onset.[Results]The crude incidence rate of bone malignant tumors in women in Jiangsu cancer registration areas decreased from 2009 to 2019,with an AAPC of-2.62％(P=0.025).After adjusting the population composition,except for urban areas,the incidence of bone malignant tumors in the whole province,men,women and rural areas all decreased significantly,with AAPC of-3.15％,-2.49％,-4.31％and-2.23％,respectively.The average age at onset of bone malignant tumors in the whole province,men and urban areas de-creased significantly yearly,with an average annual decrease of 0.365,0.504 and 0.469 years old,respectively.In the same period,the incidence of malignant bone tumors in the whole province,men,women and urban areas of age groups of 50～59,60～69 and 70～79 years old showed a decreasing trend,the AAPC ranged from-9.06％to-4.14％(all P＜0.05),and the inci-dence decreased gradually with the year of birth.The incidence of malignant bone tumors in men＜30 years old increased yearly with an AAPC of 4.30％(P＜0.05).Compared with 2009,the com-position of incidence in men aged 15～39 years old and in urban population increased in 2019,while the incidence of bone malignant tumors in the age group of 60～79 years old in the province generally decreased.After age structure adjustment,the incidence of bone malignant tumors in people over 60 years old in urban areas decreased with an AAPC of-1.42％(P＜0.05).[Conclu-sion]The incidence of bone malignant tumors in Jiangsu Province is decreasing and the age at on-set is moving forward,indicating that the prevention and control measures of bone malignant tu-mors should be adjusted accordingly.

Objective:To analyze incidence trends and age distribution of cutaneous melanoma in Jiangsu province from 2010 to 2019.Methods:In this cross-sectional study, data on the reported incidence of cutaneous melanoma from 2009 to 2019 were obtained from 16 cancer registries in Jiangsu Province, which had complete and continuous records after quality control. The Jointpoint log-linear regression model was used, and the average annual percentage change (AAPC) was calculated to analyze incidence trends of cutaneous melanoma in different genders and areas (urban or rural). Data from the Chinese population census in 2000 were used for calculation of age-standardized incidence rates by Chinese standard population. The Jointpoint regression model was used to evaluate the trends in the average age at onset over time. If there were no inflection points, a t test was used to compare changes in the average age at onset and age-specific proportions among different years. The age-period-cohort model was used to analyze changes of the incidence in birth cohorts in different years. Results:The age-standardized incidence rate of cutaneous melanoma in Jiangsu province was 0.26/100 000 in 2009 and 0.49/100 000 in 2019. Overall, the provincial incidence rates showed an increasing trend (AAPC in age-standardized incidence rates: 6.17%, P < 0.001). In the subgroup analyses, increasing trends were observed in different genders and areas (AAPC in age-standardized incidence rates: 4.24% for males, 8.01% for females, 5.17% for urban areas, 7.62% for rural areas, all P < 0.001). The standardized average age at onset of cutaneous melanoma was 59.95 years in 2009 and 58.84 years in 2019, with no significant trend in average age at onset over time ( P = 0.196). People aged 60 years and above had an AAPC of 1.20% ( P = 0.020) in the actual incidence proportion of cutaneous melanoma in 2019 compared with 2009. The age-period-cohort model showed that the incidence progressively increased with the year of birth in age groups among patients of different genders and in different areas (all P < 0.05) . Conclusions:The overall incidence of cutaneous melanoma was relatively low in Jiangsu province from 2009 to 2019, however, an upward trend was observed. Patients in both rural and urban areas, as well as female and male populations, all exhibited increasing incidence rates. The incidence rates of cutaneous melanoma increased with age.

This paper reviews the published articles of recent years on the application of deep learning methods in automatic localization of acupoint, and summarizes it from 3 key links, i.e. the dataset construction, the neural network model design, and the accuracy evaluation of acupoint localization. The significant progress has been obtained in the field of deep learning for acupoint localization, but the scale of acupoint detection needs to be expanded and the precision, the generalization ability, and the real-time performance of the model be advanced. The future research should focus on the support of standardized datasets, and the integration of 3D modeling and multimodal data fusion, so as to increase the accuracy and strengthen the personalization of acupoint localization.

The paper introduces Professor LIU Zhibin's clinical experience in treatment of Parkinson's disease with constipation by the combined therapy of acupuncture and tuina. Professor LIU believes that constipation in Parkinson's disease involves pathological changes in sanjiao (triple energizers) system, i.e. upper, middle, and lower jiao, and proposes Tiaoshen Tongfu (regulating the mind and fu organs) acupuncture and Chang'an Liu's tuina manipulation are used to treat Parkinson's disease with constipation based on the "sanjiao theory". In acupuncture, the scalp points of the anterior hairline micro-acupuncture system (Touxue, Shangjiao, Zhongjiao and Xiajiao) are selected, complemented by Baihui (GV20), Hegu (LI4), Taichong (LR3), Quchi (LI11), Tianshu (ST25), Dachangshu (BL25), Shangjuxu (ST37) and Zhigou (TE6). In tuina manipulation, one finger pushing, rolling and pressing are adopted.

This paper presents an automatic acquisition and analytic procedure of acupuncture manipulation based on optical navigation, aiming at solving the shortcomings of existing acquisition methods of acupuncture manipulation. An acquisition holder installed at the handle tail of filiform needle was designed to display the movement trajectory of the needle during acupuncture delivery by collecting the movement trajectory of holder. The 3-month old male Bama miniature pig was selected as the experimental subject, and 6 points, "Bojian" "Qiangfeng" "Housanli" "Xiaokua" "Huiyang" (BL35) and "Baihui" (GV20), were selected during acupuncture manipulation. The optical navigation system was used to collect the real-time data, and these data were per-processed and analyzed using mean filtering and Fourier transform. The acupuncture procedure was divided into 3 stages, inserting, lifting-thrusting, and twisting. The results showed that the accuracy was 96.3% at lifting-thrusting stage, and that was 100.0% at twisting stage. The decomposition effect of the entire procedure was satisfactory. This study provides a new approach to the quantitative analysis of acupuncture manipulation. In the future, it needs to further optimize the algorithm and expand the sample size so as to improve the accuracy of this analytic technique.
