Objective:To explore the latent-classes of HIV high risk behaviors among college students, and the association between experiences of intimate partner violence (IPV) and HIV high risk behaviors, to provide evidence for reducing the HIV high risk behaviors among them.Methods:A cross-sectional study was conducted from October to December 2019 among university students from six higher education institutions in Zhuhai City, using a multi-stage cluster sampling method, with an estimated sample size of 1 318. The study included participants who self-reported being in a romantic relationship and having sexual experience within the past year. Data on sociodemographic characteristics, IPV experiences, and HIV high risk behaviors were collected. Latent-class analysis was performed on HIV high risk behaviors, and chi-squared tests and multivariable logistic regression were used to analyze the associations between IPV experiences and different latent classes of HIV high risk behaviors.Results:The effective response rate for the survey was 95.4% (12 235/12 821). 1 382 college students from Zhuhai were included as participants in the study, with 19.4% (268/1 382) self-reporting having experienced IPV. Latent-class analysis of HIV high risk behaviors classified the participants into three latent groups: low-risk group (78.1%, 1 079/1 382), multiple sexual partners/alcohol use before sex group (15.8%, 219/1 382), and high-risk group (6.1%, 84/1 382). Multivariable logistic regression analysis showed that students who had experienced psychological violence were more likely to be in the group that had multiple sexual partners/alcohol use before sex (a OR=2.51, 95% CI:1.48-4.27). Those who had experienced IPV (a OR=5.74, 95% CI:3.45-9.55), physical violence (a OR=9.26, 95% CI: 5.24-16.35), sexual violence (a OR=8.46, 95% CI:4.93-14.52), or psychological violence (a OR=15.99, 95% CI:8.64-29.57) were more likely to be in the high-risk group. Students who experienced two (a OR=9.37, 95% CI:3.55-24.71) or three types of IPV (a OR=50.09, 95% CI: 21.06-119.14) were more likely to be in the high-risk group compared to those with no IPV experiences. Conclusions:HIV high risk behaviors among college students in Zhuhai exhibited heterogeneity across different latent groups, and these groups have different associations with IPV experiences. Universities should tailor targeted HIV/AIDS education and prevention strategies based on the characteristics of each latent group to reduce HIV high risk behaviors among college students.

Objective To explore the incidence and its influencing factors of transient severe motion(TSM)in the arterial phase of gadolinium ethoxybenzyl diethylenetriamine pentaacetic acid(Gd-EOB-DTPA)enhanced MRI.Methods The databases of China National Knowledge Network(CNKI),VIP,Wanfang,PubMed,and Embase were searched for studies on the incidence and influencing factors of TSM,and the search time was from the establishment of the databases to October 2024.Meta-analysis was performed via Stata 17.0 software.Results A total of 30 papers(33 studies)were finally included,totaling 12 565 patients.Meta-analysis results showed that the incidence of TSM in the arterial phase of Gd-EOB-DTPA enhanced MRI was 13.0％.The risk factors for TSM included age[odds ratio(OR)=1.03;95％confidence interval(CI)1.02-1.05;P＜0.001),chronic obstructive pulmonary disease(COPD)(OR=4.21;95％CI 1.76-10.09;P=0.001),and moderate-to-severe pleural effusion(OR=3.34;95％CI 1.69-6.63;P=0.001),while a previous usage history of Gd-EOB-DTPA(OR=0.56;95％CI 0.39-0.81;P=0.002)was a protective factor of TSM.Conclusion The incidence of TSM in the arterial phase of Gd-EOB-DTPA enhanced MRI is relatively high.Age,COPD,moderate-to-severe pleural effusion are risk factors for TSM,while the previous usage history of Gd-EOB-DTPA is a protective factor for TSM.

In clinical practice,the diagnosis of hepatocellular carcinoma primarily relies on imaging findings.For cases with atypical imaging features or insufficient diagnostic specificity,pathological analysis remains essential.With the advancement of precision medicine,research focus has expanded from pure diagnostic evaluation to therapeutic efficacy prediction.Imaging-based prognostic biomarkers have emerged as a key research frontier in hepatocellular carcinoma management.Although accurate diagnosis remains paramount,current investigations increasingly prioritize the identification of biomarkers for treatment response prediction and outcome stratification.Recent studies demonstrate that radiological characteristics not only reflect tumor heterogeneity but also carry prognostic implications for hepatocellular carcinoma.These imaging biomarkers enable non-invasive outcome prediction and provide objective evidence to optimize therapeutic decision-making.This comprehensive review summarizes MRI-derived imaging features associated with hepatocellular carcinoma prognosis,aiming to guide personalized treatment strategies and ultimately improve survival outcomes for hepatocellular carcinoma patients.

Objective To investigate the resting brain functional connectivity in patients with post-stroke cognitive impairment (PSCI).Methods From January, 2020 to January, 2021, 24 PSCI patients were divided into mild group (n=12) and moderate group (n=12) according to Mini-Mental State Examination and Montreal Cognitive Assessment scores; and other ten healthy controls (control group) were included. All the subjects were scanned with 64-channel functional near-infrared spectroscopy in resting for six minutes. The data were analyzed with NirSpark 1.6.12 and SPSS 26.0.Results Using deoxyhemoglobin, the functional connectivity between bilateral hemispheres reduced in the moderate group compared with those in the control group (t=-2.763, P=0.024), especially for the functional connectivity between sensorimotor cortexes (F=12.674, P=0.031).Conclusion Functional connectivity between hemispheres decreases in PSCI patients, especially between sensorimotor cortexes.

Objective:To explore the effect of pediatric critical illness score (PCIS), pediatric risk of mortality Ⅲ score (PRISM Ⅲ), pediatric logistic organ dysfunction 2 (PELOD-2), pediatric sequential organ failure assessment (p-SOFA) score and Glasglow coma scale (GCS) in the prognosis evaluation of septic-associated encephalopathy (SAE).Methods:The data of children with SAE admitted to the Pediatric Intensive Care Unit (PICU), Guangdong Provincial People’s Hospital, Guangdong Academy of Medical Sciences from January 2010 to December 2020 were retrospectively analyzed. They were divided into the survival and death groups according to the clinical outcome on the 28th day after admission. The efficiency of PCIS, PRISM Ⅲ, PELOD-2, p-SOFA and GCS scores for predicting death were evaluated by the area under the ROC curve (AUC). The Hosmer-Lemeshow goodness-of-fit test assessed the calibration of each scoring system.Results:Up to 28 d after admission, 72 of 82 children with SAE survived and 10 died, with a mortality rate of 12.20%. Compared with the survival group, the death group had significantly lower GCS [7 (3, 12) vs. 12 (8, 14)] and PCIS scores [76 (64, 82) vs. 82 (78, 88)], and significantly higher PRISM Ⅲ [14 (12, 17) vs. 7 (3, 12)], PELOD-2 [8 (5, 13) vs. 4 (2, 7)] and p-SOFA scores [11 (5, 12) vs. 6 (3, 9)] ( P<0.05). The AUCs of PCIS, PRISM Ⅲ, PELOD-2, p-SOFA and GCS scores for predicting SAE prognosis were 0.773 ( P=0.012, AUC>0.7), 0.832 ( P=0.02, AUC>0.7), 0.767 ( P=0.014, AUC>0.7), 0.688 ( P=0.084, AUC<0.7), and 0.692 ( P=0.077,AUC<0.7), respectively. Hosmer-Lemeshow goodness-of-fit test showed that PCIS ( χ2=5.329, P=0.722) predicted the mortality and the actual mortality in the best fitting effect, while PRISM Ⅲ ( χ2=12.877, P=0.177), PELOD-2 ( χ2=8.487, P=0.205), p-SOFA ( χ2=9.048, P=0.338) and GCS ( χ2=3.780, P=0.848) had poor fitting effect. Conclusions:The PCIS, PRISM Ⅲ and PELOD-2 scores have good predictive ability assessing the prognosis of children with SAE, while the PCIS score can more accurately evaluate the fitting effect of SAE prognosis prediction.

Objective:To analyze the safety and efficacy of percutaneous vertebroplasty combined with interstitial implantation 125I of seeds (PVPI) in the treatment of thoracic vertebroplasty with posterior vertebra defect. Methods:A retrospective analysis of the clinical data of 64 patients with thoracic spine metastases admitted to Yunnan Cancer Hospital from November 2017 to May 2019 was conducted, including 32 patients with posterior vertebra defect (experimental group) and 32 cases without (control group). Forty-two vertebral bodies of 32 patients in the experimental group were treated with improved PVPI surgery, which performed with the secondary sealing method and inclined puncture needle injection bone cement rotary filling technology, to reduce leakage. The 54 vertebral bodies of 32 patients in control group underwent PVPI. The two groups of patients were followed up on the second day, one month, three months and six months after the operation, and the short-term efficacy, long-term efficacy and safety indicators of the two groups were compared.Results:All 64 patients successfully completed the surgical treatment. The visual analogue scores and Karnofsky scores of the experimental group and the control group were improved to varying degrees on the second day, 1 month, 3 months and 6 months after the operation. There was no statistically significant difference between the two groups ( P>0.05). The amount of bone cement in the experimental group and control group was (2.36±0.20) ml and (2.39±0.17) ml, and the difference was not statistically significant ( P=0.482). The amount of 125I seed implantation was (30.63±0.91) and (32.56±0.68), respectively, the difference was not statistically significant ( P=0.925). The partial response rates of the study group and the control group were 81.3% and 87.5%, the stable disease rates were 12.5% and 9.4%, the differences were not statistically significant ( P>0.05). The median overall survival (mOS) of the study group was 13 months, and the median progression-free survival (mPFS) was 8 months. The mOS of the control group was 14 months, and the mPFS was 8 months. The differences were not statistically significant ( P>0.05). In the experimental group, 6 (14.3%) vertebral bodies had cement leakage, of which 2 (4.8%) were cement leakage at posterior vertebra, 4 (9.5%) were paravertebral cement leakage. Seven (13.0%) paravertebral cement leakage occurred in the control group. There was no significant difference in bone cement leakage between the two groups ( P=0.097). Bone cement leakage in both groups did not cause serious complications such as spinal cord injury and paraplegia. Conclusion:The application of PVPI in the treatment of thoracic metastatic tumor patients with posterior vertebra defect can acquire better clinical efficacy and safety through conduction of the improved intraoperative technology and paying more attention to the control of bone cement distribution and other issues.
