Objective: To explore the regulatory role of paternal involvement in parenting in the association between parental adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) and autism like behavioral problems in children aged 3-6, so as to provide a basis for intervention strategies targeting the intergenerational health effects of ACEs. Methods: A longitudinal study design was used to select 1 780 children aged 3-6 from 12 kindergartens in Wuhu City, Anhui Province in June 2021 as the subjects of the baseline survey by convenient sampling, and the follow up surveys were conducted once every six months, for a total of two follow ups. Pearson correlation analysis was used to examine the association of parental ACEs and paternal involvement in parenting with autism like behavioral problems in children. A binary Logistic regression model was used to explore the association between parental ACEs and autism like behavioral problems in children. Based on stratification, the potential role of paternal involvement in the association between parental ACEs and autism like behavioral problems in children aged 3-6 was explored. Results: Autism like behavioral problem score in children aged 3-6 was positively correlated with the total score ACEs of parents as well as scores of emotional abuse, physical abuse, sexual abuse, emotional neglect, physical neglect, community violence, peer bullying, and family dysfunction( r =0.18,0.16,0.18,0.14,0.06,0.05,0.12,0.18,0.09,all P <0.05). Autism like behavioral problem score in children was negatively correlated with score of paternal involvement in parenting( r =-0.16, P <0.01). After adjusting for covariates such as gender, age, and birth weight of children, binary Logistic regression analysis showed that children whose parents had experiences of childhood emotional abuse, physical abuse, sexual abuse, community violence, peer bullying, or family dysfunction had higher risks of developing autism like behavioral problems than those in the non exposed group ( OR =3.29, 3.28, 6.71, 2.34, 4.08, 2.02, all P <0.01). In the group with low paternal involvement in parenting, all dimensions of parental ACEs(emotional abuse, physical abuse, sexual abuse, community violence, peer bullying, and family dysfunction) were significantly associated with an increased risk of autism like behavioral problems in children ( OR =1.84-8.34, all P <0.05). In contrast, in the group with high paternal involvement in parenting, no statistically significant associations were found between any dimension of parental ACEs and children s autism like behavioral problems ( OR =0.57-1.82, all P >0.05). Conclusion A high level of paternal involvement in parenting can reduce the adverse effects of parental ACEs on the occurrence of autism like behaviors in preschool children.

The aim of this updated guideline is to provide comprehensive recommendations for the management of gout in patients with common comorbidities, such as chronic kidney disease(CKD), cardiovascular disease(CVD), diabetes, osteoarthritis(OA), and gastrointestinal disorders. This guideline was developed by a multidisciplinary expert panel consisting of specialists in endocrinology, rheumatology, nephrology, cardiology, gastroenterology, and methodology.

Objective: To investigate the exposure to television advertising of sugar sweetened beverages and the use of persuasive marketing techniques among children and adolescents in Beijing, so as to provide evidence for reduing childrens intake of sugar sweetened beverages. Methods: From October 19, 2020 to November 16, 2021, 32 days were randomly selected. The top four popular channels of children and adolescents aged 3-18 years were defined. Each channel was monitored from 6:00:00 to 23:59:59 for each date. A total of 2 304 h was recorded. Advertisements involving sugar sweetened beverages broadcast before, during or after the program were included. The frequency and the use of persuasive marketing techniques were analyzed. Results: A total of 1 237 advertisements for sugar sweetened beverages were included, of which 50.93% were dairy beverages, 28.38% were teabased beverages, and 19.48% were vegetable protein beverages. The average frequency of sugar sweetened beverages advertisements on every channel was (0.62±1.29)piece/h. The frequency of sugar sweetened beverages advertisements on every local channel [(1.04±1.35)piece/h] and childrens channel [(1.11±1.61)piece/h] was separately higher than every national channel [(0.48±1.24)piece/h] and general channel [(0.12±0.48)piece/h] (t=-14.05, 31.64, P<0.01). There were seasonal differences in television advertising of sugar sweetened beverages, and were more frequent during lunch and dinner times. The most frequently used persuasive marketing techniques were "images of children" (74.54%), "nutritional message" (61.76%), "product composition details" (58.61%), "nutrition claim" (57.24%), and "nutrition function claim or other function claim" (53.11%). Conclusions Children and adolescents are often exposed to television advertisement of sugar sweetened beverages on childrens channels and during meal times. There is an urgent need to formulate relevant policies to regulate the marketing of sugar sweetened beverages advertisement and reduce children and adolescents intake.

Based on high-resolution magnetic resonance tube wall imaging,reverse medical engineering modeling techniques are used to obtain individualized intracranial artery models of high prevalence in ischemic stroke.Three types of intracranial artery models,including Newtonian fluid model,non-Newtonian fluid model and non-Newtonian fluid with two-phase flow model,are established for transient numerical simulations using computational fluid dynamics method.The hemodynamic parameters such as blood flow field,wall shear stress distribution and erythrocyte volume distribution are analyzed to investigate the possible mechanisms involved in the formation and progression of intracranial atherosclerosis.It is found that blood flow velocity increased significantly at the end of the internal carotid artery and the middle cerebral artery.Low-speed vortex flow and disturbed flow appear in the local vessels.The difference in blood flow velocity between the center and the edge of the wall is large,with an obvious low-flow velocity area on the outer side.A clear central core area is formed in the stenotic wall under the action of high-speed blood flow,resulting in thinner edge layer and lower erythrocyte volume fraction.The combination of low erythrocyte distribution in the edge layer and low flow velocity on the outer side of the wall exacerbates endothelial cell necrosis,hypoxia,endothelial dysfunction,and leads to atherosclerosis.Compared with Newtonian and non-Newtonian fluid models,non-Newtonian fluid with two-phase flow model has greater variability for hemodynamic parameters and shows higher fidelity in simulating blood flow,which provides a reference for clinical diagnosis and treatment of cerebrovascular diseases.

Objective:To compare the differences in the prevalence of mild micro-hepatic encephalopathy (MHE) among patients with cirrhosis by using the psychometric hepatic encephalopathy score (PHES) and the Stroop smartphone application (Encephal App) test.Methods:This prospective, multi-center, real-world study was initiated by the National Clinical Medical Research Center for Infectious Diseases and the Portal Hypertension Alliance and registered with International ClinicalTrials.gov (NCT05140837). 354 cases of cirrhosis were enrolled in 19 hospitals across the country. PHES (including digital connection tests A and B, digital symbol tests, trajectory drawing tests, and serial management tests) and the Stroop test were conducted in all of them. PHES was differentiated using standard diagnostic criteria established by the two studies in China and South Korea. The Stroop test was evaluated based on the criteria of the research and development team. The impact of different diagnostic standards or methods on the incidence of MHE in patients with cirrhosis was analyzed. Data between groups were differentiated using the t-test, Mann-Whitney U test, and χ2 test. A kappa test was used to compare the consistency between groups. Results:After PHES, the prevalence of MHE among 354 cases of cirrhosis was 78.53% and 15.25%, respectively, based on Chinese research standards and Korean research normal value standards. However, the prevalence of MHE was 56.78% based on the Stroop test, and the differences in pairwise comparisons among the three groups were statistically significant (kappa = -0.064, P < 0.001). Stratified analysis revealed that the MHE prevalence in three groups of patients with Child-Pugh classes A, B, and C was 74.14%, 83.33%, and 88.24%, respectively, according to the normal value standards of Chinese researchers, while the MHE prevalence rates in three groups of patients with Child-Pugh classes A, B, and C were 8.29%, 23.53%, and 38.24%, respectively, according to the normal value standards of Korean researchers. Furthermore, the prevalence rates of MHE in the three groups of patients with Child-Pugh grades A, B, and C were 52.68%, 58.82%, and 73.53%, respectively, according to the Stroop test standard. However, among the results of each diagnostic standard, the prevalence of MHE showed an increasing trend with an increasing Child-Pugh grade. Further comparison demonstrated that the scores obtained by the number connection test A and the number symbol test were consistent according to the normal value standards of the two studies in China and South Korea ( Z = -0.982, -1.702; P = 0.326, 0.089), while the other three sub-tests had significant differences ( P < 0.001). Conclusion:The prevalence rate of MHE in the cirrhotic population is high, but the prevalence of MHE obtained by using different diagnostic criteria or methods varies greatly. Therefore, in line with the current changes in demographics and disease spectrum, it is necessary to enroll a larger sample size of a healthy population as a control. Moreover, the establishment of more reliable diagnostic scoring criteria will serve as a basis for obtaining accurate MHE incidence and formulating diagnosis and treatment strategies in cirrhotic populations.
