Objective:To observe the efficacy of synchronous scalp acupuncture and rehabilitation training in the treatment of poststroke dysphagia.Methods:A total of 106 participants were divided into an observation group and a control group using the random number table method,with 53 cases in each group.The control group was treated with scalp acupuncture in addition to conventional rehabilitation training.The observation group was treated with synchronous scalp acupuncture and conventional rehabilitation training.Water swallowing test(WST),blood oxygen-saturation change amplitude,mini-mental state examination(MMSE),and standardized swallowing assessment(SSA)were assessed before treatment,after 2 weeks of treatment,and at follow-ups at week 4 and week 6.The effective rate was calculated based on the change in the WST grading after 2 weeks of treatment.Results:After 2 weeks of treatment,there was an insignificant difference in the total effective rate between the two groups(P>0.05),but the inter-group difference in the cured plus markedly effective rate was significant(P<0.01).The intra-group differences in the WST grading,blood oxygen-saturation change amplitude,and the scores of MMSE and SSA were significant among the 4 time points in the two groups(P<0.01).At follow-up at week 6,the WST grading and SSA score in the observation group were superior to those in the control group(P<0.01).Conclusion:Both intervention protocols can improve the swallowing function,physical function,and psychological status;the observation group's intervention is better than that of the control group in improving swallowing function.

Objective:To evaluate the predictive value of simplified geriatric assessment (sGA) in elderly Chinese patients diagnosed with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) .Methods:It retrospectively analyzed the relationships of sGA with the clinical characteristics, outcome, and prognosis of 219 patients aged ≥60 years who were newly diagnosed with DLBCL at six hospitals in Jiangsu province between January 2018 and December 2022.Results:The median age of 219 patients was 68 years (60-87 years). According to the sGA system criteria, 101 (46.1%), 103 (47.0%), and 15 (6.8%) elderly patients with DLBCL were categorized as fit, unfit, and frail, respectively. The most common adverse reactions after chemotherapy were hematologic, and the incidence of grade >2 hematologic adverse reactions was similar among the three groups (47.5% vs 41.7% vs 46.7%, respectively; χ2=0.712, P=0.700). Compared with the fit and unfit groups, the frail group showed tendencies toward for higher proportions of grade >2 gastrointestinal, pulmonary, and infectious adverse reactions ( P>0.05 for all). The fit, unfit, and frail groups had respective remission rates of 74.3%, 46.6%, and 20.0% ( χ2=25.249, P<0.001) ; disease progression rates of 5.9%, 11.7%, and 26.7% ( χ2=6.763, P<0.05) ; 2-year overall survival rates of 92.1% (95% CI 86.6% to 97.9%), 77.6% (95% CI 69.5% to 86.6%), and 70.1% (95% CI 49.4% to 99.6%) ( P<0.05) ; and 2-year progression-free survival rates of 76.8% (95% CI 67.0% to 84.8%), 69.7% (95% CI 61.8% to 82.0%), and 65.7% (95% CI 53.3% to 100%) ( P=0.399) . Conclusion:sGA can effectively predict treatment adverse effects and efficacy, disease progression, and long-term survival in elderly DLBCL.

Cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury(CIRI)is a serious complication caused by the recovery of blood flow in the affected brain tissue of patients with ischemic stroke.CIRI patients are often accompanied by neurological dysfunction,cognitive impairment,emotional disorders and other symptoms,which have a serious impact on daily life.At present,CIRI is easy to be diagnosed early,but there are relatively few related specific treatments.In this paper,the correlation between cyclic adenylate-activated exchange protein 1/RAS-related protein 1(Epac1/Rap1)signaling pathway and CIRI is reviewed,in order to provide new ideas for clinical treatment of CIRI patients.

Objective:To analyze the effect of long-term care insurance on the incidence of falls in old people with disability, and the modification effect of different living arrangements.Methods:Based on the discharge diagnosis records of the hospitalization in urban residents who applied for long-term care insurance in Chengdu from July 2014 to June 2021, those who received long-term care insurance were selected as the intervention group and those who received no long-term care insurance were selected as the control group, the changes in the incidence of falls before and after the long-term care were analyzed using difference-in-differences method, and the modification effects of different living arrangements were explored using stratified analysis.Results:Long-term care insurance significantly reduced the risk for monthly incidence of falls in older adults [average treatment effects on treated (ATT) = -1.21% (95% CI: -1.82%--0.60%)], and the effect increased over time (ATT=-1.26%, 95% CI: -1.93%--0.59%). Long-term care insurance had a significant effect on reducing the incidence of falls in old people living with spouses/family members (ATT=-0.92%, 95% CI: -1.47%--0.37%) and in nursing facilities/hospitals (ATT=-2.10%, 95% CI: -3.81%--0.40%), but it had no significant effect in those living alone. Conclusions:Long-term care insurance can effectively reduce the incidence of falls in old people with disability, showing a positive effect. Living with family members or in nursing facilities/hospitals has a modification effect of the implementation of long-term care insurance policy. It is necessary to pay attention to key populations in the future and expand the coverage of long-term care insurance.

Objective To investigate whether VHD prefabricated foot orthoses can reduce the incidence of lower limb overuse injury (LLOI) in naval recruits. Methods Totally 400 recruits who underwent enlistment training were enrolled and randomly assigned to the intervention group (n=200) and control group (n=200). During the enlistment training,the recruits in the intervention group wore VHD prefabricated foot orthoses,while those in the control group did not wear foot orthoses. Questionnaire survey was conducted 1 week later,and the foot orthoses of those recruits with adverse events were remoulded. The health data of recruits were collected again by questionnaire survey and physical examination 12 weeks later.The primary outcome was the incidence of LLOI. The secondary outcomes included the type of LLOI,the lost training time due to LLOI,the comfort score of the foot orthoses,and the adverse events. Results There were no significant differences in the baseline characteristics between the 2 groups (P>0.05). A total of 76 cases of LLOI was recorded,including 24 cases (12％) in the intervention group and 52 cases (26％) in the control group. Plantar fasciitis was the most common type of LLOI. The lost training time of the intervention group and the control group were 51 d (2.12 d for each one) and 123 d (2.37 d for each one),respectively. The comfort scores of the foot orthoses at 1 week and 12 weeks were 3.76±1.87 and 2.03±1.74,respectively. The incidences of adverse events in 1 week and 3 months were 18％ (36/200) and 5％ (10/200),respectively. The most common adverse event was arch pain. Conclusion VHD prefabricated foot orthoses can reduce the incidence of LLOI and lost training time due to LLOI in recruits,with good wearing comfort and less adverse events.

Objective:To examine the survival rates and clinical characteristics of people with newly discovered non-M 3 acute myeloid leukemia (AML) who carry the ASXL1 gene mutation. Methods:From January 2016 to April 2021, the clinical information of patients with newly diagnosed non-M 3 AML at Shandong University's Qilu Hospital was retrospectively examined, and their clinical characteristics and survival were compared and analyzed. Gene mutation was detected by next-generation sequencing. Results:① The study included 256 AML patients who were initially diagnosed and had complete data, including 47 cases of ASXL1 gene mutation-positive (ASXL1 +) patients and 209 cases of ASXL1 gene mutation-negative (ASXL1 -) patients. All patients were divided into three groups: elderly (≥60 years old, n=92) , middle-aged (45-59 years old, n=92) , and young (≤44 years old, n=72) . ②WBC, and age were higher in patients with ASXL1 mutations compared to ASXL1 - patients, while complete response after the first round of treatment (CR 1) was lower ( P<0.05) . In the elderly group, WBC and the proportion of aberrant cells in nuclear cells in ASXL1 + patients were higher than those in ASXL1 - patients ( P<0.05) . In the young group, the WBC of ASXL1 + patients was higher than that of ASXL1 - patients ( z=-2.314, P=0.021) . ③IDH2 mutation and ASXL1 mutation was related ( P=0.018, r=0.34) . In ASXL1 + patients, the proportion of peripheral blasts in the high VAF group (VAF>40% ) was higher than that in the low VAF group (VAF<20% ) , and the proportion of aberrant nuclear cells was higher in the duplication and replacement mutation patients than in the deletion mutation patients ( P<0.05) . ④The overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS) of ASXL1 + patients were shorter than those of ASXL1 - patients (median, 10 months vs 20 months, 10 months vs 17 months; P<0.05) . The proportion number of aberrant cells in nuclear cells (≥20% ) , complex karyotypes, and TET2 mutation were all independent risk variables that had an impact on the prognosis of ASXL1 + patients, according to multivariate analysis ( P<0.05) . Conclusion:ASXL1-mutated non-M 3 AML patients have higher WBC in peripheral blood, a higher proportion of aberrant cells in nuclear cells, lower CR 1 rate, and shorter OS and PFS. Additionally, a poor prognosis is linked to higher VAF, duplication, and substitution mutations in the ASXL1 gene, as well as the high proportion of aberrant cells in nuclear cells, complex karyotype, and TET2 mutation.
