Objective: To analyze the factors associated with high level fear of negative evaluation (FNE) among junior high school students and to construct a nomogram risk prediction model, so as to provide scientific tools for psychological health intervention for junior high school students. Methods: A convenience sampling combined with cluster random sampling method was used to select 5 485 junior high school students from 4 cities (Wuhan, Huanggang, Xianning and Xiaogan) for an online questionnaire survey in March 2025. The total sample was randomly split into a training set ( n =3 839) and a validation set ( n =1 646). Univariate analysis was performed in the training set using Chi-square test and t-test. Variables with statistical significance were subsequently included in multivariate Logistic regression to identify independent predictors and to construct a nomogram based risk prediction model. The discriminative ability and clinical utility of the model were evaluated in the validation set using the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC), calibration curve, and decision curve analysis (DCA). Results: There were 1 649 junior high school students with low level FNE and 2 190 with high level FNE in the training set. The self control ability of junior high school students with lowlevel and high level FNE showed a statistically significant difference (23.96±3.96, 21.48±3.37, t=25.15, P < 0.01 ). Statistically significant differences in the detection rate of high level FNE were observed among junior high school students with different genders, family types, parenting styles, academic rankings, psychological flexibility, mobile phone addiction tendencies, emotional management training, exercise frequency, left behind experiences, and places of origin ( χ 2=82.01- 1 126.68 , all P <0.01). The results of Logistic regression analysis revealed that, the following factors were identified as significant factors influencing high level FNE among junior high school students:exercise frequency ( OR=0.21, 95%CI =0.17-0.26); parenting style ( OR=0.48, 95%CI =0.40-0.58); left behind experience ( OR=3.88, 95%CI =3.27-4.61); smartphone addiction proneness ( OR=2.19, 95%CI =0.89-0.93); self-control ability ( OR=0.91, 95%CI =0.89-0.93); and psychological flexibility ( OR=0.16, 95%CI =0.10-0.28) (all P <0.05). The AUC for the training and validation set were 0.88 (95% CI =0.87-0.89) and 0.87 (95% CI =0.85-0.89), respectively. The Hosmer-Lemeshow goodness of fit test yielded χ 2=8.57, 15.20 (both P >0.05). Conclusion The risk prediction model with high level FNE demonstrates good accuracy and can assist educators and parents in timely screening of junior high school students with high level FNE, thereby providing a basis for implementing targeted interventions.

Total laryngectomy is a crucial surgical intervention for patients with advanced malignant tumors of the larynx and nasopharynx. Despite its effectiveness, this procedure permanently severs the connection between the nasal cavity and the lower respiratory tract, leading to the cessation of nasal airflow. This disruption significantly impairs the patient's sense of smell and adversely affects their quality of life. Although olfactory loss is common in these patients, the assessment and rehabilitation of their olfactory function are often overlooked. This article reviews relevant literature on evaluating olfactory function and rehabilitation methods following total laryngectomy, with the aim of providing a theoretical foundation to enhance olfactory rehabilitation and overall quality of life for these patients.

Noise-induced hearing loss is a worldwide public health issue that is characterized by temporary or permanent changes in hearing sensitivity. This condition is closely linked to inflammatory responses, and interventions targeting the inflammatory gene tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNFα) are known to mitigate cochlear noise damage. TNFα-induced proteins (TNFAIPs) are a family of translucent acidic proteins, and TNFAIP6 has a notable association with inflammatory responses. To date, there have been few reports on TNFAIP6 levels in the inner ear. To elucidate the precise mechanism, we generated transgenic mouse models with conditional knockout of Tnfaip6 (Tnfaip6 cKO). Evaluation of hair cell morphology and function revealed no significant differences in hair cell numbers or ribbon synapses between Tnfaip6 cKO and wild-type mice. Moreover, there were no notable variations in hair cell numbers or hearing function in noisy environments. Our results indicate that Tnfaip6 does not have a substantial impact on the auditory system.

Discipline construction is the main focus of the high-quality development of public hospitals. The authors elaborated on the practice of Zhongshan Hospital(Xiamen), Fudan University, based on the " double-center" homogenization management, implementing the 123456 strategy of " integrated management and homogeneous development" in discipline construction. The hospital has promoted discipline construction from six aspects: building discipline cluster, promoting talent cultivation, building science and technology innovation platform, precise personnel classification, medical and education collaborative education, and information sharing and support. It has achieved new development goals of filling weak discipline gaps, transforming talent transfusion into hematopoietic, and integrating medical, educational, research and management innovation. However, it also encountered difficulties such as homogenization barrier of discipline construction, shortage of excellent talents, and limited brand influence of superior disciplines. The authors put forward suggestions from three dimensions: deepening homogeneous management, building talent echelon, and increasing publicity, in order to provide experience for the high-quality development of other hospitals.

Objective:To investigate the application value of intraoperative motor nerve monitoring in cervical neurogenic tumor surgery.Methods:The efficacy of intraoperative neuromonitoring (IONM) was analyzed retrospectively in 18 patients, including 6 males and 12 females, aged from 15 to 74 years, treated in Affiliated Drum Tower Hospital, Medical School of Nanjing University from June 2019 to September 2022 who underwent total cystectomy of cervical neurogenic tumors under intraoperative nerve monitoring.Results:All 18 patients had complete tumor removal, including 8 patients with tumors from the vagus nerve and 10 patients with tumors from the brachial plexus nerve. Postoperative nerve functions were normal in patients with tumors from brachial plexus nerve, and incomplete vocal cord paralysis occurred in 2 patients with tumors from vagus vagus nerve. The total incidence of motor nerve injury was 11.1% (2/18). All patients were followed up for 6 to 45 months, with no tumor recurrence.Conclusion:Intraoperative neuromonitoring has significant values in surgery of cervical neurogenic tumors, which is helpful to remove completely the tumors on the basis of protecting the nerve functions to the maximum extent.

Objective:To explore the efficacy of central combined peripheral dual-target magnetic stimulation on Parkinson disease (PD) patients with freezing of gait (FOG).Methods:A total of 39 patients with FOG diagnosed at the Parkinson disease clinic of the Affiliated Hospital of Nantong University were included in the study from July 2022 to September 2023.They were randomly divided into observation group ( n=20) and control group ( n=19) by the random number table method. The patients in control group were treated with repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS), while the patients in observation group were treated with additional repetitive peripheral magnetic stimulation(rPMS) on the affected tibialis anterior muscle on the basis of the control group. Other clinical medical treatments were the same for both groups of patients.The timed up and go test (TUGT), 10 meter walk test (10MWT), and motor evoked potentials (MEP) were used to evaluate the efficacy before and after 2 weeks of treatment.The SPSS 25.0 software was used for statistical analysis. Independent sample t-test was used for comparison between the two groups, and paired sample t-test was used for comparison before and after treatment within group. Results:Before treatment, there were no statistically significant difference in TUGT time, 10MWT speed and MEP amplitude between the two groups( t=0.659, 0.514, 0.345, all P>0.05).After treatment, the TUGT time((7.87±1.74) s vs (9.31±1.57)s)and MEP amplitude((41.59±14.81)mV vs (58.26±19.26) mV)of the observation group were lower than those of the control group( t=2.723, 3.039, P=0.010, 0.004), while the 10MWT speed of the observation group was higher than that of the control group ((1.21±0.20) m/s vs (1.01±0.17)m/s, t=3.173, P=0.003).After treatment, the TUGT time and MEP amplitude of patients in the observation group and control group were all lower than before treatment (observation group: t=13.512, 7.126, both P<0.001; control group: t=6.535, 3.094, both P<0.05). The 10MWT speeds of patients in the observation group and control group after treatment were both higher than before treatment ( t=25.665, 6.750, both P<0.001). Conclusion:The combination of central and peripheral dual-target magnetic stimulation may improve the FOG of PD patients, and it is worthy of clinical promotion.

Objective:To evaluate the role of autophagy in hydrogen-rich solution-induced reduction of remifentanil-induced hyperalgesia in rats.Methods:Thirty-two clean-grade healthy male Sprague-Dawley rats, aged 2-3 months, weighing 240-260 g, were divided into 4 groups ( n=8 each) by a random number table method: incisional pain group (group I), remifentanil+ incisional pain group (group RI), hydrogen-rich solution+ remifentanil+ incisional pain group (group HRI), and hydrogen-rich solution + autophagy inhibitor+ remifentanil+ incisional pain group (MHRI group). The tail vein was catheterized, the equal volume of normal saline was intravenously infused for 60 min while the incisional pain model was developed in group I, and remifentanil was intravenously infused at a rate of 1 μg·kg -1·min -1 for 60 min while the incisional pain model was developed in RI, HRI and MHRI groups, hydrogen-rich solution 10 ml/kg was intraperitoneally injected at 10 min before preparing the model in group HRI, and 3-MA 15 mg/kg was intraperitoneally injected at 1 h before preparing the model in MHRI group, and the other treatments were similar to those previously described in group HRI. The mechanical paw withdrawal threshold (MWT) and thermal paw withdrawal latency (TWL) were determined at 24 h before and 2, 6, 24 and 48 h after the end of infusion. The rats were sacrificed under anesthesia after the behavioral testing, and the lumbar enlargement segment of the spinal cord was removed for determination of the expression of microtubule-associated protein 1 light chain 3Ⅱ (LC3Ⅱ), Beclin-1 and P62 by Western blot. Results:Compared with the baseline at T 0, the MWT was significantly decreased and TWL was shortened at T 1-4 in the four groups ( P<0.05). Compared with group I, the MWT was significantly decreased and TWL was shortened at T 1-4, the expression of LC3 II and Beclin-1 was up-regulated, and the expression of P62 was down-regulated in group RI and group HRI ( P<0.05). Compared with group RI, the MWT was significantly increased and TWL was prolonged at T 1-4 in group HRI and group MHRI, the expression of LC3 II and Beclin-1 was significantly up-regulated, and the expression of P62 was down-regulated in group HRI, and the expression of LC3 II and Beclin-1 was significantly down-regulated, and the expression of P62 was up-regulated in group MHRI ( P<0.05). Compared with group HRI, the MWT was significantly decreased and TWL was shortened at T 1-4, the expression of LC3 II and Beclin-1 was down-regulated, and the expression of P62 was up-regulated in group MHRI ( P<0.05). Conclusions:The mechanism by which hydrogen-rich solution alleviates hyperalgesia may be related to enhancing the level of autophagy in the spinal cord of rats with incisional pain induced by remifentanil.

Objective:To investigate the effects of Neibu Huangqi Decoction combined with Kangfuxin Liquid on wound healing after hemorrhoid fistula.Methods:Randomized controlled trial. A total of 90 patients with hemorrhoid fistula surgery in Tangshan Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine from January 2020 to June 2021 were selected as the observation objects and divided into 2 groups by random number table method, with 45 cases in each group. The control group was treated with Kangfuxin Liquid after surgery, and the observation group was treated with Neibu Huangqi Decoction. Both groups were treated continuously for 14 days. Wound symptom score was performed before and after treatment. The levels of TNF-α, IL-6 and IL-8 were determined by ELISA. The wound healing time was observed and the wound healing rate was calculated. Adverse reactions were recorded and clinical efficacy was evaluated.Results:The total effective rate was 93.33% (42/45) in the observation group and 66.67% (30/45) in the control group, with statistical significance ( χ2=9.89, P=0.002). After treatment, the scores of pain [(0.63±0.14) vs. (0.97±0.27), t=7.50], exudation [(0.67±0.12) vs. (1.09±0.31), t=8.48], edema [(0.78±0.17) vs.(1.25±0.36), t=7.92], pruritus [(0.78±0.20) vs. (1.32±0.33), t=9.39] were lower than those in the control group ( P<0.01); serum TNF-α [(33.46±2.86) μg/L vs. (45.78±3.92) μg/L, t=25.39], IL-6 [(41.86±5.84) μg/L vs. (56.12±6.75) μg/L, t=15.98], IL-8 [(27.40±3.58) ng/L vs. (36.16±3.84) ng/L, t=16.69] were lower than those in the control group ( P<0.01). The wound healing time of the observation group was shorter than that of the control group ( t=8.60, P<0.01), and the wound healing rate was higher than that of the control group ( t=24.65, P<0.01). During treatment, the incidence of adverse reactions was 11.11% (5/45) in the observation group and 6.67% (3/45) in the control group, without statistical significance ( χ2=0.14, P=0.711). Conclusion:Neibu Huangqi Decoction combined with Kangfuxin Liquid can promote wound healing, reduce inflammatory cytokines, relieve pain and exudation, improve clinical efficacy, and have few adverse reactions.

Objective:To explore any effects of combining virtual reality training with aromatherapy in caring for Alzheimer′s disease patients in a nursing home.Methods:Fifty nursing home residents with Alzheimer′s were divided at random into an observation group and a control group, each of 25. Both groups received routine rehabilitation, while the observation group was additionally given 45 minutes of virtual reality training combined with aromatherapy, 3 times a week for 6 months. Both groups′ cognition was then evaluated using the MMSE and an Alzheimer′s cognition assessment scale (ADAS-cog). Psycho-behavioral symptoms were quantified using the Alzheimer′s disease pathological behavior scale (BEHAVE-AD). Motor functioning was quantified using the timed up and go test (TUGT), the 30-second sit-to-stand test (30sCST), the 30-second arm curl test (30sACT) and the sit-and-reach test (CSRT). Ability in the activities of daily living (ADL) and life quality were quantified using the activity of daily living scale and of the quality of life scale for Alzheimer′s disease (QOL-AD) before and after the intervention.Results:After the intervention the average MMSE, ADAS-cog, BEHAVE-AD and ADL scores of both groups had improved significantly, with the average improvement in the observation group significantly greater than that in the control group. The TUGT, 30sCST, 30sACT and CSRT results of both groups were also significantly better, with those of the observation group again significantly superior, on average, to the control group′s results. The average QOL-AD score in the observation was significantly improved after the intervention, and was then significantly better than the control group′s average.Conclusions:Virtual reality training combined with aromatherapy can significantly improve the cognition, psycho-behavioral symptoms, activity in daily living, motor functioning and life quality of Alzheimer′s patients in a nursing home. It is worthy of promotion and application in nursing homes.

Objective:To observe any effect of virtual reality (VR) training on the cognitive functioning and functional fitness of nursing home residents with subjective cognitive decline (SCD).Methods:Fifty-six of such residents were randomly divided into an observation group and a control group, each of 28. Both groups received health education and routine care, but the observation group was additionally provided with 45 minutes of VR training three times a week for 6 months. The training included Baduanjin, magic, flying bird, supermarket shopping, gravity ball and gym episodes. Both groups′ cognition was evaluated using the subjective cognitive decline questionnaire (SCD-Q), the Montreal cognitive assessment (MoCA), the Rivermead Behavioural Memory Test (second edition) (RBMT-Ⅱ), a digit symbol substitution test (DSST), an animal fluency test (AFT) and trail-making test A-B (TMT A-B). Functional fitness was quantified using the 8-foot up-and-go test (8UGT), a 30-second arm curl test (30sACT), a 30-second chair stand test (30sCST), a back scratching test (BST), the sit-and-reach test (CSRT) and a 2-minute step test (2MST) before and after the 6-month intervention.Results:After the intervention, the average SCD-Q, MoCA, RBMT-Ⅱ, DSST, TMT-A, and TMT-B scores of the observation group were significantly better than before the intervention, and significantly better than the control group′s averages. And except for the back scratching their functional results were also significantly better, on average, than those of the control group.Conclusions:VR training can effectively improve the cognition and functional fitness of nur-sing home residents with SCD. Such training is worthy of promotion and wider application in nursing homes.
