Autism spectrum disorder(ASD),characterized by unknown etiology and high heterogeneity,ne-cessitates precise diagnostic and intervention strategies.Neuroimaging techniques have shown great promise in un-covering the neural mechanisms of ASD,providing a foundation for aided diagnosis and transcranial magnetic stim-ulation(TMS)interventions.This review highlights that integrating multimodal neuroimaging and developing indi-vidualized indices with developmental specificity can significantly improve the accuracy of ASD diagnosis and clas-sification.Furthermore,TMS interventions guided by functional connectivity derived from functional magnetic reso-nance imaging(fMRI)offer a personalized approach to ASD treatment.

Objective To observe brain function changes in insomnia disorder(ID)patients and therapeutic effect of repeated transcranial magnetic stimulation(rTMS)based on resting-state functional MRI(rs-fMRI).Methods Totally 37 patients with ID(ID group)and 20 healthy subjects(control group)were prospectively enrolled.The scores of sleep condition and psychological state scales were compared between groups,also within ID group before and after rTMS treatment.Brain regions with amplitude of low frequency fluctuations(ALFF)and regional homogeneity(ReHo)being significantly different between groups were evaluated based on brain rs-fMRI,and voxel-based resting-state functional connectivity(FC)analysis was performed in the above regions and the predefined regions of interest.Results Before treatment,Pittsburgh sleep quality index(PSQI),insomnia severity index(ISI),Epworth sleepiness score(ESS),Beck depression inventory(BDI)score and Beck anxiety inventory(BAI)score in ID group were all higher than those in control group(all P<0.05).ALFF values and ReHo of the right median cingulate and paracingulate gyrus(Cingulum_Mid_R)were lower in ID group than those in control group(all FWE correctedP<0.05).FC between Cingulum_Mid_R and the left anterior cingulate gyrus and cingulate gyrus(Cingulum_Ant_L)decreased,so did that between the left hippocampus(Hippocampus_L)and the right frontal gyrus(Frontal_Mid_R)(all FWE corrected P<0.05).After rTMS,PSQI,ISI and ESS scores of ID patients decreased compared to those before treatment(all P<0.05),but no significant change of the above neuroimaging indicators was detected(all FWE corrected P>0.05).Conclusion ID caused synchronous decrease of Cingulum_Mid_R ALFF value and ReHo,as well as weakened FC between frontal cingulate gyrus and frontal with lobe limbic system.rTMS could improve sleep and mental state of ID patients,but its impact on neuroimaging needed further investigation.

Drug-induced neurological disorders (DINDs) refer to the central or peripheral nervous system disease caused by drugs. DINDs account for a large proportion of adverse drug reactions/events in China, and its onset is complex to some extent. Common DINDs include epilepsy, movement disorders, stroke, peripheral neuropathy, spinal cord injury, cognitive impairment and so on. Usually, DINDs have characters of gradual development and late-onset reactions, and it is difficult to associate their clinical manifestations with drugs, leading to misdiagnosis and poor prognosis in clinic. To reduce the neurotoxicity of drugs, multidisciplinary cooperation should be strengthened, and individualized treatment plans for high-risk people and closer monitoring should be implemented for timely identification and diagnose. At the same time, relevant researches on DINDs should be strengthened in the clinic to cope with the complexity and long-term prognosis challenges of the diseases.

Objective:To explore and evaluate the feasibility and accuracy of using optical coherence tomography and optical coherence microscope (OCT/OCM) for diagnosis of oral cancer.Methods:In this study, OCT/OCM was utilized to image the oral mucosa specimens. A total of 289 ex vivo oral mucosa specimens were collected from 68 patients with oral cancer who were hospitalized at Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Head and Neck Tumors, Capital Medical University School of Stomatology, between January 2021 and February 2023, resulting in a dataset of 1 445 OCT/OCM images. By observing the characteristic patterns in the OCT/OCM images, including normal oral mucosa, epithelial abnormal proliferation (mild, moderate, severe), and oral cancer, these patterns were matched with corresponding pathological images. A diagnostic study was conducted, employing pathological diagnosis as the gold standard and utilizing a double-blind experimental design involving three diagnostic evaluators who participated in the analysis and diagnosis of OCT/OCM images. Results:The OCT/OCM images demonstrated good correlation with the corresponding pathological images, and diagnostic criteria were established based on the comparative results. In the diagnostic study involving three investigators, the accuracy was 82%, sensitivity was 84% (95% CI: 80%-88%), and specificity was 81% (95% CI: 77%-85%). There was a high level of agreement among the observers (kappa=0.614), indicating substantial concordance in the diagnostic results among the three investigators. Conclusions:This study demonstrates the potential of OCT/OCM for diagnosis of oral cancer. The technology accurately distinguishes between normal oral mucosa, epithelial abnormal proliferation and oral cancer.

Objective:To explore the protective effects of Zhenzhu Tongluo Pills on cerebral ischemia reperfusion injury in rats.Methods:Totally 15 healthy SD rats were randomly divided into sham-operation group, model group and TCM group according to random number table method, with 5 rats in each group. Except for the sham-operation group, cerebral ischemia models in the other two groups were induced by temporary middle cerebral artery occlusion. After the establishment of ischemia models, the TCM group was administered Zhenzhu Tongluo Pills solutions (1 ml/100 g) intragastrically at a dose of 0.5 g/(kg·d), and the sham-operation group and model group were treated with normal saline, for 14 consecutive days. Neurological deficit score was used to evaluate the degree of neurological deficit in cerebral ischemia rats. TTC staining were used for determining the infarct weights. The nerve cell damage was observed using HE staining method. Immunohistochemistry staining was used to observe the expression levels of GFAP, Nestin, and NeuN.Results:Compared with that at the 3 hours after reperfusion, the Bederson score in the TCM group decreased at the 30 minutes after the last administration ( P<0.05); compared with the model group, the infarction ratio of rats in the TCM group decreased ( P<0.05); the NeuN staining of neurons around the ischemic lesion in the model group rats was light, while Nestin and GFAP staining were deep; the Nestin and GFAP staining of neurons in the TCM group was light, while NeuN staining was deeper. Conclusion:Zhenzhu Tongluo Pills can improve the symptom of neurological deficits, reduce the volume of infarction, and protect neurons from injury in rats with cerebral ischemia.

Objective:To analyze the construction and operation of the 19th Hangzhou Asian Games designated hospitals, and to discuss the medical emergency security work of large-scale sports events, so as to provide references for the planning of designated hospitals in future large-scale sports events.Methods:Retrospective analysis was made on the establishment principles, requirements, selection of medical support personnel, and training exercises of the designated hospitals, focusing on the key links such as organizational system, staffing, designated areas, and drug management.Results:Total of 40 designated hospitals have successfully completed the task of medical security by rebuilding the medical security area of the Asian Games, elevating the process, equipping facilities, and strengthening staff training. During the Asian Games, 349 people were transferred to designated hospitals by ambulance, 54 people were hospitalized, 19 people underwent surgery, and 1022 people went to designated hospitals by themselves.Conclusion:The construction of the designated hospitals during the 19th Hangzhou Asian Games was of high quality, efficient and smooth operation. It is suggested that efforts should be made in the reconstruction of the medical security area for the Asian Games to be "relatively independent". The treatment process of self-visiting patients should be fully considered and the flat urgent emergency response mechanism needs to be established.
