Objective: To explore the latent profile characteristics of regulatory emotional self-efficacy and its relationship with non-suicidal self-injurious (NSSI) behavior among junior and senior high school students, so as to provide a basis for effectively reducing NSSI behaviors. Methods: From April to October 2023, a total of 1 217 junior and senior high school students were selected from Tongren City, Zunyi City and Qiannan Prefecture of Guizhou Province by stratified cluster random sampling method. The Scale of Regulatory Emotional Self-efficacy and the Adolescent Self-injury Scale were administered. Latent profile analysis (LPA) was employed to explore distinct profiles of regulatory emotional self-efficacy, and the Lanza, Tan, and Bray s method (LTB) was used to analyze the relationship between these profiles and NSSI behavior. Results: The prevalence rate of NSSI behavior among junior and senior high school students was 28.6%. Among males, regulatory emotional self-efficacy was categorized into two types: moderate positive expression-low negative management group (59.1%, n =353) and high efficacy group (40.9%, n =244); among females, regulatory emotional self-efficacy was classified into three categories: low efficacy group (18.4%, n =114), high positive expression-low negative management group (56.3%, n =349), and high efficacy group (25.3%, n =157). There were statistically significant differences in total NSSI scores across different potential categories of regulatory emotional self-efficacy within both males and females ( Z/H = -5.75 , 57.58, both P <0.01). The differences in NSSI prevalence rates across the potential categories of regulatory emotional self-efficacy were statistically significant for both males and females ( χ 2=38.00, 69.14, both P <0.01), and among females, the differences in NSSI prevalence rates between the high efficacy group and the low efficacy group ( χ 2=60.01) and between the high efficacy group and the high positive expression-low negative management group ( χ 2=31.34) were also statistically significant (both P < 0.016 7 ). Binary Logistic regression analysis revealed that, compared with the high efficacy group within each gender, the moderate positive expression-low negative management group among males ( OR =2.36), and both the low efficacy group and the high positive expression-low negative management group among females ( OR =6.19, 2.97), were at an increased risk of engaging in NSSI (all P <0.01). Conclusion Different latent profiles of regulatory emotional self efficacy among junior and senior high school students are associated with NSSI behavior.

The field of surgery is undergoing a historic paradigm shift from experience-based medicine towards precision and intelligence. However, the integration gap between medical science, engineering, and mathematical technologies severely constrains the depth and breadth of surgical intelligence. This article conducts an in-depth analysis of the critical barriers currently hindering medical-engineering-mathematical (MEM) integration within surgery. It systematically elucidates the pivotal driving role of artificial intelligence (AI) technologies-particularly deep learning, computer vision, natural language processing, and multimodal fusion-in bridging these gaps. By integrating international case studies and institutional practices in hepatobiliary and pancreatic surgery, including AI-assisted planning, real-time intraoperative navigation, and intelligent postoperative management, this work demonstrates how AI effectively bridges the MEM intelligent integration gap. Furthermore, it proposes the construction of an integrated MEM innovation ecosystem framed around “talent cultivation，a foundational data infrastructure，collaborative platforms，and ethical safeguards”. The article concludes by envisioning the future landscape of an AI-empowered, intelligent surgical ecosystem. AI is emerging as the core engine propelling surgery across the MEM integration gap, thereby accelerating the field′s entry into a new era of intelligence.

Objective:To compare and observe the efficacy and safety of pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) combined with 41G ultrafine needle injection of balanced salt solution (BSS) and internal limiting membrane inversion and coverage in the treatment of large-diameter macular hole (MH).Methods:A prospective study. From April 2023 to April 2024, 42 patients (42 eyes) diagnosed with large-diameter MH at The Affiliated Eye Hospital of Nanchang University were included in the study. The substrate diameters (BD) of MH are all greater than 1 000 μm. All affected eyes underwent best corrected visual acuity (BCVA), microvisual field, optical coherence tomography (OCT), and OCT angiography (OCTA) examinations before surgery. BCVA examination was conducted using the international standard logarithmic visual acuity chart, and the statistics were converted to the logarithm of the minimum angle of resolution (logMAR) visual acuity. Microfield-of-view examination records the mean retinal sensitivity (MS) within a 12° range of the fovea. The minimum diameter (MD) and BD of the hole were measured by OCT and the MH index (MHI) was calculated. OCTA measures the area and perimeter (PERIM) of the foveal avascular zone (FAZ) in the fovea centralis, as well as the retinal vessel length density (VLD) and vessel perfusion density (VPD) in the central area. The affected eyes were divided into the observation group (22 eyes, treated with PPV combined with 41G ultra-micro needle subretinal injection of BSS and the control group (20 eyes, treated with PPV combined with internal limiting membrane inversion and coverage) according to the random number table method. The patients were followed up for 6 months after the operation, and the above indicators were reexamined at 1, 3 and 6 months. The changes of BCVA, MS, FAZ parameters, VLD, VPD before and after the operation, as well as the closure of the hole and the occurrence of complications were compared between the two groups. The independent sample t test was used for comparison between groups. The correlation between postoperative indicators and preoperative structural parameters was analyzed using Pearson analysis. Results:In the 22 eyes of the observation group, the hole closure rate was 100.0% (22/22) 6 months after the operation, and the complete closure rate was 90.9% (20/22). In the control group of 20 eyes, the closure rate was 95.0% (19/20), and the complete closure rate was 90.0% (18/20). The hole closure rate of the affected eyes in the observation group was better than that in the control group, but the difference was not statistically significant ( χ2=1.736, P=0.420). The logMAR BCVA, MS, FAZ area, PERIM, VLD and VPD at each time point after the operation in both groups were significantly improved compared with those before the operation, and the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.05). The results of Pearson correlation analysis showed that in the observation group, logMAR BCVA at 6 months after surgery was positively correlated with BD before surgery ( r=0.340, P=0.029), and negatively correlated with MHI before surgery ( r=?0.350, P=0.023). Six months after the operation, MS was positively correlated with the preoperative hole height and MHI ( r=0.330, P=0.034). In the control group, 6 months after the operation, MS was negatively correlated with BD before the operation ( r=?0.480, P=0.032), and positively correlated with MHI before the operation ( r=0.510, P=0.027). Six months after the operation, the FAZ area of the affected eyes in the observation group [(0.17±0.09) mm 2] was larger than that in the control group [(0.12±0.07) mm 2], and the difference was statistically significant ( t=?0.340, P=0.025). No complications such as abnormal intraocular pressure, retinal pigment epithelium injury or retinal detachment occurred in all the affected eyes after the surgery. Conclusions:PPV combined with 41G ultra-micro needle subretinal injection of BSS for the treatment of large-diameter MH has a high rate of hole closure and good safety. Larger BD and MD, lower MHI and hole height before surgery may affect the recovery of visual function after surgery.

Objective: To explore the relationship between related factors of non-suicidal self-injury behavior (NSSI) among middle school students in Guizhou Province, so as to provide the evidence for preventing high risk behaviors in adolescents. Methods: A stratified cluster random sampling method was used to select 1 034 junior and senior middle school students from Zunyi City, Qiannan Prefecture and Tongren City in Guizhou Province from April to October in 2023. Questionnaire survey was conducted to collect information including Adolescent Self injury Scale and Family Assessment Device. The R 4.4.1 software was employed for network analysis visualization, centrality indicators, and result stability assessment. Results: The detection rate of NSSI behavior among middle school students in Guizhou province was 29.6%, with a detection rate of 25.5% for boys and 33.1% for girls, showing a statistically significant difference ( χ 2=7.07, P <0.05). There were statistically significant differences in scores of emotional communication, egoism, family rules, positive communication, problem solving, expression of positive emotions and management of negative emotions self-efficacy, and bullying victimization in various dimensions between middle school students with and without NSSI ( Z =-13.66 to -7.05, P <0.01). NSSI among middle school students was positively correlated with social/relational bullying, depression and anxiety, and there were relatively close connections in the network ( r =0.35, 0.43, 0.42, P <0.01). Centrality indicators showed that the highest in strength and closeness centrality were stress ( Z =1.29, 1.58), the highest in betweenness centrality was for emotional communication ( Z =1.91), and the highest in expected influence index was for physical bullying ( Z =1.44)( P < 0.05). Conclusions Stress, emotional communication and physical bullying have significant impacts in the network of factors related to NSSI. Social/relational bullying, depression and anxiety have strong direct correlations with NSSI behavior among middle school students.
