Objective:To identify the developmental trajectories of internet use and well-being among the elderly in China,and to explore the dynamic relationship between these trajectories and the moderating role of intergenerational support from children.Methods:Group-Based Trajectory Modeling was employed to identify developmental trajectories,and moderated generalized logits models were used to analyze the relationship between trajectories and the moderating effect of intergenerational support from children.Results:Both internet use and well-being among the elderly exhibited differentiated developmental trajectories.Internet use trajectories had a significant positive impact on well-being trajectories.Compared with the low-level group,the elderly in the moderate internet use group being classified into the medium-and high-level well-being groups were 1.550 times(P<0.01)and 1.539 times(P<0.05)those of the offline group respectively,while those in the high-frequency internet use group were 9.560 times(P<0.01)and 9.030 times(P<0.01),respectively.Intergenerational support from children negatively moderated this relationship(medium-level well-being group:OR=0.768,P<0.05;high-level well-being group:OR=0.733,P<0.05).Conclusions:Internet use can sustainably enhance the well-being of the elderly over the long term,with this effect being more pronounced among those receiving less intergenerational support from children.It is recommended to establish a dual-track service system integrating online and offline channels,and to prioritize internet empowerment as a targeted social support strategy for the elderly with insufficient intergenerational support from children.

Objective:To explore the correlation among SMAD4 gene polymorphisms, early life traumatic experience and their interactions with clinical feature of obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD). Methods:Totally 484 OCD patients who met the DSM-Ⅳ diagnostic criteria and 368 health controls who met the enrollment criteria were recruited from September 2013 to September 2018. The Yale-Brown obsessive-compulsive scale (Y-BOCS) was used to assess the severity of obsessive-compulsive symptoms, the Beck depression inventory Ⅱ (BDI-Ⅱ) was used to assess the severity of depressive symptoms, the Beck anxiety inventory (BAI) was used to assess the severity of anxiety symptoms, and early trauma inventory-short form (ETI-SF) was used to assess early traumatic experience. SMAD4: rs12452684, rs2276163, rs17663887 and rs3819122 were genotyped using the Taqman genotyping technique. Data were analyzed using SPSS 20.0 software, and comparisons among groups were performed using chi-square test, t-test, Mann-Whitney U non-parametric test and analysis of covariance. Correlation was analyzed using Spearman correlation analysis, and interactions were analyzed using general linear model. Results:All sites except rs17663887 met the Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium (rs12452684: χ2=0.29, P=0.59; rs2276163: χ2=2.58, P=0.11; rs3819122: χ2=0.22, P=0.64).Allele, genotype frequencies of SMAD4: rs12452684, rs2276163 and rs3819122 were not statistically significant between the OCD and the health control groups ( χ2=0.02, 1.20, 0.04, all P>0.05; χ2=1.85, 3.98, 1.45, all P>0.05). The results of covariance analysis (corrected for age and gender) showed that there were significantly differences in compulsion (CC: 12.47±4.23, CT: 12.53±4.15, TT: 13.97±3.11; AA: 12.63±4.08, AC: 12.49±4.19, CC: 13.87±2.93) and total Y-BOCS scores(CC: 25.31±6.42, CT: 25.68±5.90, TT: 27.75±6.01; AA: 25.54±6.52, AC: 25.56±5.98, CC: 27.63±5.75) among the three genotypes of the SMAD4: rs2276163 and rs3819122 between the two groups ( F=3.58, 3.87, 3.48, 3.73, all P<0.05). Emotional abuse in the ETI-SF was positively correlated with obsession and total Y-BOCS scores( r=0.14, 0.14, both P<0.05). The interactions of rs2276163, rs3819122 and emotional abuse were associated with obsession scores ( F=4.65, 3.63, 2.93, all P<0.01). Conclusions:The more emotional abuse experienced in early life, the more severe obsessive-compulsive symptoms, and the interaction between the SMAD4 gene and early traumatic experience is involved in the development of OCD.

Objective:To explore the application value of part-cut jejunal transection in digestive tract reconstruction of totally laparoscopic total gastrectomy.Methods:The propensity score matching and retrospective cohort study was conducted. The clinicopathological data of 112 patients with gastric cancer who underwent totally laparoscopic total gastrectomy in The Second Affiliated Hospital of Anhui Medical University from June 2018 to September 2022 were collected. There were 81 males and 31 females, aged (70±8)years. Among the 112 patients, 60 patients undergoing diges-tive tract reconstruction by Roux-en-Y anastomosis with part-cut jejunum were set as the part-cut group, and 52 patients undergoing digestive tract reconstruction by traditional Roux-en-Y anasto-mosis were set as the traditional group. Observation indicators: (1) propensity score matching status and comparison of clinical data of patients between the two groups after matching; (2) intraopera-tive and postoperative conditions; (3) follow-up. Comparison of measurement data with normal dis-tribution between groups was conducted using the independent sample t test. Comparison of count data between groups was conducted using the chi-square test or Fisher exact probability. Com-parison of ordinal data was conducted using the nonparametic rank sum test. Propensity score matching was performed using the 1∶1 nearest neighbor matching method, with the caliper value of 0.02. Results:(1) Propensity score matching status and comparison of clinical data of patients between the two groups after matching. Of the 112 patients, 90 patients were successfully matched, with 45 cases in each of the part-cut group and the traditional group. After propensity score matching, the elimination of body mass index, clinical TNM staging confounding bias ensured comparability. (2) Intraoperative and postoperative conditions. After propensity score matching, the total operation time and digestive tract reconstruction time of patients in the part-cut group were (217.0±15.1)minutes and (34.7±1.8)minutes, versus (252.6±21.9)minutes and (52.6±7.4)minutes in the traditional group, respectively, showing significant differences in the above indicators between the two groups ( t=?8.97, ?15.66, P<0.05). (3) Follow-up. After propensity score matching, 90 patients were followed up postoperatively for (47±15)months. During the follow-up, no patient in either group received secondary surgery, and there was no death. There were 3 cases and 10 cases of Roux stasis syndrome in the part-cut group and the traditional group, respectively, showing a significant difference between the two groups ( χ2=4.41, P<0.05). Conclusion:Compared with traditional Roux-en-Y anastomosis, the Roux-en-Y anastomosis with part-cut jejunum in totally laparoscopic total gastrectomy can signifi-cantly shorten the time for digestive tract reconstruction and reduce the incidence of postoperative Roux stasis syndrome.

This study investigated the infection status,drug resistance,and molecular characteristics of Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli(STEC)in domestic goats in Chengkou county,Chongqing.In August 2023,283 fecal samples were collected from households in Chengkou county.After enrichment with EC broth and inoculation onto selective media,samples that tested positive for stx1/stx2 were selected for further isolation.The positive strains were investigated with antimicrobial susceptibility testing and whole genome sequencing.According to the whole genomic sequences,the stx subtypes,serotypes,multi-locus sequence types,virulence genes,drug resistance genes,and phylogenetic relationships of the STEC strains were analyzed.Forty-six strains of STEC were isolated from 283 goat fecal samples,thus resulting in a detection rate of 16.25%.The 46 STEC strains were categorized into 12 O∶H serotypes,among which O76∶H19 and O8∶H7 predominated,each represented by 9 strains.Five STEC strains were identified as serotype O157∶H7.The 46 STEC strains were categorized into 11 sequence types(STs),among which ST675 and ST196 predominated,each represented by nine strains,accounting for a 19.57%proportion.The strains were categorized into 7 stx subtypes,among which stx1c(26/46,56.52%),followed by stx2k(9/46,19.57%)predominated.All nine Stx2k-STEC strains were identified as serotype O8∶H7 and sequence type ST196.In antimicrobial susceptibility testing,2 STEC strains were resistant to ampicillin,one strain was resistant to ampicillin/sulbactam,one strain was resistant to cefazolin,and one strain was resistant to cefoxitin.Nine Stx2k-STEC strains were found to carry the beta-lactam resistance gene blaEC-18.Antimicrobial sensitivity tests revealed that the nine Stx2k-STEC strains were sensitive to all 15 tested antibiotics.Moreover,phylogenetic analysis indicated that the 9 Stx2k-STEC strains were remarkably similar but showed high genetic diversity with respect to that of the Stx2k-STEC strains isolated from other regions in China.Goatsare an important animal reservoir for STEC in theChengkou district of Chongqing,and novel sequence type Stx2k-STEC strains distinct from those found in other regions of China were identified in this region.

BACKGROUND:It has been confirmed that ferroptosis is closely related to the mechanism of various nervous diseases.However,the pathological mechanisms of ferroptosis and peripheral nerve injury need to be further studied and clarified.OBJECTIVE:To review the role and mechanism of ferroptosis in the treatment of peripheral nerve injury.METHODS:The articles related to ferroptosis and nervous system injuries were searched in CNKI and PubMed databases from database inception to May 2024.The keywords were"ferroptosis,peripheral nerve injury,antioxidant defense system,Schwann cells,macrophage,neuroinflammation,neuropathic pain"in Chinese and English,respectively.Sixty eligible articles were finally included for review.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The occurrence of ferroptosis is closely related to abnormal intracellular iron metabolism,reactive oxygen species accumulation and lipid peroxidation.Ferroptosis occurs in both Schwann cells and macrophages after peripheral nerve injury,leading to changes in the microenvironment and further inducing diseases such as neuroinflammation and neuropathic pain.Increasing studies have shown that nerve injury is closely related to ferroptosis,and inhibition of ferroptosis can promote tissue repair and functional recovery after peripheral nerve injury.Therefore,it is of great significance to study the mechanism underlying the occurrence and regulation of ferroptosis after peripheral nerve injury.Current research on the role and regulation of ferroptosis after peripheral nerve injury is still in its infancy,and more in-depth studies are needed to provide more strategies to promote repair after peripheral nerve injury.

Aim To systematically investigate the ac-tive components,targets,and regulatory pathways of Po-lygonum capitatum in intervening atherosclerosis(AS)through network pharmacology,molecular docking and animal experiments.Methods Active components of Polygonum capitatum and AS-related targets were screened and identified through database searches.Protein-protein interaction(PPI)network analysis was performed using the STRING database,followed by GO and KEGG enrichment analyses via the David plat-form.Molecular docking validation was conducted with AutoDock.An AS model was established in Syrian golden hamsters fed a high-fat diet.Predicted pathways and targets were validated using qPCR,ELISA,and histopathological assessment of aortic and hepatic tis-sues via HE staining.Results Network pharmacology identified 27 potential active components of Polygonum capitatum(primarily flavonoids such as quercetin and luteolin)and 110 drug-disease intersection targets,in-cluding core targets MMP-9,ALB,and AKT1.GO and KEGG analyses enriched 593 and 125 pathways,re-spectively,with the NF-κB inflammatory pathway,TNF signaling pathway and lipid metabolism/atherosclerosis pathways highlighted as key mechanisms.Animal ex-periments demonstrated that Polygonum capitatum im-proved serum lipid profiles(reduced TC,TG,LDL-C)in AS hamsters,suppressed the MMP-9/NF-κB signa-ling pathway(downregulated MMP-9,p65 phosphoryla-tion,TNF-α,and IL-6),and inhibited VSMC synthetic phenotypic transformation(upregulated α-SMA and myocardin)by downregulating MCPIP1.Additionally,Polygonum capitatum ameliorated aortic lesions and he-patic lipid deposition in AS hamsters.Conclusions Polygonum capitatum alleviates AS by synergistically regulating the MMP-9/NF-κB/MCPIP1 axis through flavonoid components,suppressing vascular inflammato-ry cascades and maintaining VSMC contractile pheno-types.This reflects Polygonum capitatum's multi-com-ponent,multi-pathway,and multi-target characteristics in combating AS.

Paraplegia caused by spinal cord injury is a serious neurological complication, for which surgery is currently the main treatment method. Due to different surgical approaches, patients are usually expected to maintain a passive prone position for a long time or switch between the supine and prone positions. Affected by multiple factors such as neurogenic sensory disorders, pathological changes in muscle tone and operative duration, the risk of intraoperative acquired pressure injury (IAPI) is significantly increased. Current clinical prevention strategies for IAPI in these patients predominantly focus on localized pressure relief during positioning, lacking systematic, standardized comprehensive prevention protocols or evidence-based guidelines. To address it, Department of Nursing, Orthopedics Branch, China International Exchange and Promotive Association for Medical and Health Care, Spinal Trauma Professional Committee, Orthopedics Branch, Chinese Medical Doctor Association, Nursing Group of Spine and Spinal Cord Professional Committee of Chinese Association of Rehabilitation Medicine organized experts in relevant fields to formulate Guideline for the prevention of intraoperative acquired pressure injury in paraplegic patients with spinal cord injury ( version 2025), based on evidence-based medical evidence and latest research results and clinical practice at home and abroad. Eleven recommendations were put forward from the aspects of preoperative risk assessment, intraoperative prevention strategies, postoperative handover and monitoring, and supportive mechanisms for IAPI prevention, aiming to standardize the prevention measures and management strategies of IAPI in paraplegic patients with spinal cord injury and accelerate the recovery of patients and improve the therapeutic effect.

Objective To observe the clinical effect of abdominal full-thickness skin graft combined with adipose stem cells in repairing soft tissue defects after resection of facial benign tumors.Methods A total of 180 patients with soft tissue defects after resection of facial benign tumor in our hospital from January 2019 to June 2022 were selected,the study was designed by a double-blind method,and patients were divided into the observation group and the control group by a random number table method,with 90 cases in each group.Patients in the control group were repaired by abdominal full-thickness skin graft treatment,while these in the observation group were repaired by a combination of abdominal full-thickness skin graft and adipose stem cells.The scar status scores in the surgical area,clinical efficacy,incidence of complications and satisfaction of patients in the two groups were compared.Results Compared with preoperative results,the scores of color and thickness of scars,vascular distribution,and softness in face 6 months after surgery in both groups decreased,with statistically significant differences(P<0.05).Six months after surgery,the observation group had significantly lower scores on scar color and thickness,vascular distribution,and softness compared to the control group(P<0.05);there was no difference in the effective rate of the forehead,nose,eyelids,lips,or cheeks between the observation group and the control group(P>0.05);while the observation group had higher overall effective rate than the control group(P<0.05).There was no statistically significant difference in the incidence of complica-tions between the two groups(P>0.05).There was statistically significant difference in the distribution of the satisfaction of patients between the two groups(P<0.05),and the observation group showed significantly higher satisfaction of patients than the control group(P<0.05).Conclusion Abdominal full-thickness skin graft combined with adipose stem cells can improve facial scars in repairing soft tissue defects after resection of facial benign tumors,and enhance the repair effects and satisfaction of patients,with high safety.
