During habitation on low-Earth-orbit (LEO) space stations, astronauts are exposed to a combination of orbital microgravity, space radiation, an enclosed and artificially controlled cabin environment, altered sleep-wake rhythms, and sustained operational and psychosocial demands. These factors can modify sensorimotor inputs, body-fluid distribution, arousal state, and task-related neural processing, thereby affecting brain function and behavior. Because evidence from real spaceflight remains limited by small samples, heterogeneous mission durations, and different measurement time points, this review integrates findings from real human spaceflight with relevant ground-based analog studies while treating real orbital studies as the primary source of evidence. We focus on electroencephalography (EEG) and event-related potentials (ERPs), structural and functional neuroimaging, and sensorimotor and cognitive outcomes, with particular attention to the direction, anatomical distribution, temporal course, and possible physiological significance of the reported changes. EEG studies indicate that long-duration spaceflight is associated with increased resting-state beta activity, particularly in sensorimotor and frontotemporal regions, together with state-dependent alterations in beta-band functional connectivity. In contrast, alpha source power and functional connectivity associated with the default mode network are reduced during long-duration missions, and some of these effects may persist into the early postflight period. Task-related electrophysiological findings further suggest that sustained mental workload can weaken frontocentral theta-temporoparietal gamma phase-amplitude coupling, whereas in-flight decision-making is accompanied by reduced P300 amplitude and reorganization of feedback-related potentials. Short-duration missions, however, have shown relative preservation of posterior dominant rhythms and some ERP measures, indicating that mission duration, recording state, and task demands substantially influence the observed electrophysiological phenotype. Neuroimaging provides complementary evidence at structural and network levels. Long-duration spaceflight has been associated with upward brain displacement, ventricular and cerebrospinal fluid expansion, regional gray- and white-matter remodeling, and alterations in white-matter structural connectivity. Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) studies further indicate reorganization of vestibular-sensorimotor, visual, and default mode networks. Some network changes recover after return to Earth, whereas others may remain detectable for months. Importantly, most MRI measurements are obtained after landing rather than in orbit; therefore, postflight findings may reflect a mixture of in-flight adaptation, the rapid transition back to 1 g, and subsequent readaptation rather than a single spaceflight effect. Behavioral evidence is most consistent for sensorimotor function. Early after return, astronauts frequently show impaired postural control, gait, spatial orientation, and coordination, consistent with reweighting among vestibular, visual, and proprioceptive information. By comparison, simple cognition and some critical operational tasks are often preserved. More subtle or high-load processes-including sustained attention, feedback evaluation, temporal processing, error monitoring, and metacognitive calibration may be more sensitive than global cognitive performance. This dissociation between neural change and preserved behavior suggests that altered brain activity should not automatically be interpreted as functional deterioration. Integrating the available modalities, we propose that LEO space-station habitation is better characterized by system-specific and stage-dependent neural adaptation than by a generalized increase or decline in brain function. The most coherent cross-modal pattern involves sensorimotor reorganization: reduced gravitational reference and weight-bearing feedback under microgravity may drive reweighting of vestibular, visual, and proprioceptive inputs, accompanied by changes in beta activity and vestibular-sensorimotor networks and followed by transient postflight sensorimotor deficits. A second major process involves fluid-related structural remodeling, in which cephalad fluid shifts and altered hydrostatic gradients may contribute to changes in cerebrospinal fluid spaces, ventricular volume, and brain tissue configuration. Resting-state and cognitive electrophysiological changes likely represent additional adjustments in network regulation and resource allocation, but their functional interpretation remains more dependent on sleep, workload, recording conditions, and individual differences. Future studies should move beyond isolated pre-post comparisons and group averages toward standardized longitudinal designs spanning preflight, multiple in-flight time points, and postflight recovery. Synchronized assessment of brain function, behavior, sleep, and key environmental parameters should be used to characterize individual adaptation trajectories and determine which neural changes reflect successful compensation, which predict delayed recovery, and which have genuine value for brain-health risk prediction and individualized countermeasures.

Objective:To evaluate the epidemiological characteristics and influencing factors of out-of-hospital sudden cardiac death (SCD) in Hangzhou from 2016 to 2019.Methods:SCD events recorded by Hangzhou Emergency Center from January 1, 2016 to December 31, 2019 were reviewed. Demographic and mortality data were recorded, and the distribution patterns of SCD events in terms of date, time, and population with different characteristics were observed. Time series analysis method and a distributed lag nonlinear model based on quasi-Poisson distribution were used to explore the possible nonlinear association between ambient temperature and SCD incidence.Results:A total of 4 744 out-of-hospital sudden death events were recorded by Hangzhou Emergency Center from January 1, 2016 to December 31, 2019. After excluding non-SCD events and observed events with missing items, 3 743 SCD events were finally included in the study. The survey results showed that the incidence of out-of-hospital SCD in Hangzhou was 96.5 cases per 100 000 person-years. Most of the people who experienced SCD were aged ≥60 years. The incidence in males (2 462 cases, 66%) was significantly higher than that in females (1 281 cases, 34%), and the proportion of events occurring during the day (2 737 cases, 73%) was significantly higher than that at night (1 006 cases, 27%), mainly occurring between 7: 00 and 9: 00. High temperature was associated with an increased risk of SCD. When the average daily temperature was higher than 25.5 ℃, the risk of SCD increased with the further increase of average daily temperature.Conclusions:SCD events mainly occur in the elderly population aged ≥60 years, with a significantly higher incidence in males than in females, and more frequently during the day than at night, mainly between 7: 00 and 9: 00 in the morning. High temperature is closely related to the risk of SCD. It is particularly important to carry out targeted SCD screening and prevention for different populations and implement appropriate prevention strategies for high-risk groups of SCD in high-temperature weather.

OBJECTIVES: To evaluate the effectiveness of single-balloon and double-balloon enteroscopy in diagnosing pediatric small bowel diseases and assess the diagnostic efficacy of computed tomography enterography (CTE) for small bowel diseases using enteroscopy as the reference standard. METHODS: Clinical data from 576 children who underwent enteroscopy at Hunan Children's Hospital between January 2017 and December 2023 were retrospectively collected. The children were categorized based on enteroscopy type into the single-balloon enteroscopy (SBE) group (n=457) and double-balloon enteroscopy (DBE) group (n=119), and the clinical data were compared between the two groups. The sensitivity and specificity of CTE for diagnosing small bowel diseases were evaluated using enteroscopy results as the standard. RESULTS: Among the 576 children, small bowel lesions were detected by enteroscopy in 274 children (47.6%).There was no significant difference in lesion detection rates or complication rates between the SBE and DBE groups (P>0.05), but the DBE group had deeper insertion, longer procedure time, and higher complete small bowel examination rate (P<0.05). The complication rate during enteroscopy was 4.3% (25/576), with 18 cases (3.1%) of mild complications and 7 cases (1.2%) of severe complications, which improved with symptomatic treatment, surgical, or endoscopic intervention. Among the 412 children who underwent CTE, the sensitivity and specificity for diagnosing small bowel diseases were 44.4% and 71.3%, respectively. CONCLUSIONS SBE and DBE have similar diagnostic efficacy for pediatric small bowel diseases, but DBE is preferred for suspected deep small bowel lesions and comprehensive small bowel examination. Enteroscopy in children demonstrates relatively good overall safety. CTE demonstrates relatively low sensitivity but comparatively high specificity for diagnosing small bowel diseases.

Based on ultra-high performance liquid chromatography-quadrupole-Exactive Orbitrap mass spectrometry(UPLC-Q-Exactive Orbitrap-MS) technology and network pharmacology, this study explored the pharmacodynamic substances and potential mechanisms of Huazhuo Sanjie Chubi Decoction in the treatment of gouty arthritis(GA). UPLC-Q-Exactive Orbitrap-MS technology was used to identify the components in Huazhuo Sanjie Chubi Decoction, and the qualitative analysis of its active ingredients was carried out, with a total of 184 active ingredients identified. A total of 897 active ingredient targets were screened through the PharmMapper database, and 491 GA-related disease targets were obtained from the OMIM, GeneCards, CTD databases. After Venn analysis, 60 intersecting targets were obtained. The component target-GA target network was constructed through the Cytoscape platform, and the STRING database was used to construct a protein-protein interaction network, with 16 core targets screened. The core targets were subjected to Gene Ontology(GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes(KEGG) pathway enrichment analyses, and the component-target-pathway network was constructed. It was found that the main active ingredients of the formula for the treatment of GA were phenols, flavonoids, alkaloids, and terpenoids, and the key targets were SRC, MMP3, MMP9, REN, ALB, IGF1R, PPARG, MAPK1, HPRT1, and CASP1. Through GO analysis, it was found that the treatment of GA mainly involved biological processes such as lipid response, bacterial response, and biostimulus response. KEGG analysis showed that the pathways related to the treatment of GA included lipids and atherosclerosis, neutrophil extracellular traps(NETs), IL-17, and so on. In summary, phenols, flavonoids, alkaloids, and terpenoids may be the core pharmacodynamic substances of Huazhuo Sanjie Chubi Decoction in the treatment of GA, and the pharmacodynamic mechanism may be related to SRC, MMP3, MMP9, and other targets, as well as lipids and atherosclerosis, NETs, IL-17, and other pathways.
