Perinatal depression (PND) is a critical public health issue affecting maternal and offspring health. Digital health intervention platforms, leveraging advantages in accessibility, privacy, and cost-effectiveness, demonstrate good application in PND prevention and treatment. This review systematically searched literature and policy documents published between January 2018 and March 2025 in CNKI, PubMed, Web of Science and World Health Organization. It summarized the development trajectory of digital health intervention platforms and their current applications and effectiveness in PND prevention and treatment. Existing evidence was evaluated across dimensions of efficacy, systematicity, and practicality, identifying major challenges faced by these platforms. Studies indicate that while PND digital health intervention platforms have achieved preliminary success in alleviating PND symptoms, widespread issues persist, including incomplete service closed-loop systems, low user adherence, and insufficient sustainability. Future efforts should focus on optimizing intervention content and interactive design, advancing intelligent assessment and tiered intervention strategies, strengthening continuous monitoring and crisis response mechanisms, and constructing a multidisciplinary collaborative support system. These steps are essential for achieving efficient, intelligent, and sustainable development of digital health intervention platforms for PND.

OBJECTIVE: To observe the effect of electroacupuncture (EA) pretreatment of "biaoben acupoint combination" on cardiomyocyte mitochondrial fission in the rats with myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury (MIRI) and explore its mechanism. METHODS: Fifty male SD rats were randomly divided into a sham-operation group, a model group, an EA pretreatment group, an EA pretreatment + Compound C group and an EA pretreatment+ML385 group, 10 rats in each group. In the EA pretreatment, the EA pretreatment + Compound C group and the EA pretreatment+ML385 group, EA was delivered at bilateral "Neiguan" (PC6), "Zusanli" (ST36) and "Guanyuan" (CV4) for 20 min, with continuous wave and 2 Hz of frequency, 1 mA of current, once daily for consecutive 7 days. On day 8, in the EA pretreatment + Compound C group and the EA pretreatment+ML385 group, 30 min before model preparation, the intraperitoneal injection with Compound C (0.3 mg/kg) and ML385 (30 mg/kg) was administered respectively. Except in the sham-operation group, the ligation of the left anterior descending coronary artery was performed to prepare MIRI rat model in the rest groups. In the sham-operation group, the thread was not ligated. After modeling, the content of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in the ischemic area was measured by flow cytometry, superoxide dismutase (SOD) was detected using xanthine oxidase method, and malondialdelyde (MDA) was detected using thiobarbituric acid (TBA) chromatometry. The morphology of myocardial tissue in the ischemic area was observed with HE staining, and the mitochondria ultrastructure of cardiomyocytes observed under transmission electron microscopy. Using immunofluorescence analysis, the positive expression of mitochondrial fission factor (MFF), mitochondrial fission 1 protein antibody (Fis1) and dynamin-related protein 1 (Drp1) was detected; and with immunohistochemical method used, the protein expression of adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase (AMPK), nuclear factor E2-associated factor2 (Nrf2) and Drp1 in the ischemic area was detected. RESULTS: Compared with the sham-operation group, the content of ROS and MDA in the myocardial tissue of the ischemic area, and the positive expression of MFF, Fis1 and Drp1 increased in the model group (P<0.01); the content of SOD and the protein expression of AMRK and Nrf2 decreased (P<0.01), and the protein expression of Drp1 elevated (P<0.01). Compared with the model group, the content of ROS and MDA in the myocardial tissue of the ischemic area, and the positive expression of MFF, Fis1 and Drp1 were dropped in the EA pretreatment group (P<0.01); the content of SOD and the protein expression of AMRK and Nrf2 rose (P<0.01), and the protein expression of Drp1 declined (P<0.01); and in the EA pretreatment+Compound C group and the EA pretreatment+ML385 group, the positive expression of MFF, Fis1 and Drp1, and the protein expression of Drp1 were all reduced (P<0.01). When compared with the EA pretreatment + Compound C group and the EA pretreatment+ML385 group, the content of ROS and MDA in the myocardial tissue of the ischemic area, and the positive expression of MFF, Fis1 and Drp1 were dropped in the EA pretreatment group (P<0.01); the content of SOD and the protein expression of AMRK and Nrf2 rose (P<0.01, P<0.05), and the protein expression of Drp1 decreased (P<0.05). In comparison with the model group, the EA pretreatment+Compound C group and the EA pretreatment+ML385 group, the cardiac muscle fiber rupture, cell swelling and mitochondrial disorders were obviously alleviated in the EA pretreatment group. The morphological changes were similar among the model group, the EA pretreatment+Compound C group and the EA pretreatment+ML385 group. CONCLUSION Electroacupuncture pretreatment of "biaoben acupoint combination" attenuates myocardial injury in MIRI rats, probably through promoting the phosphorylation of AMPK and Nrf2, inhibiting the excessive mitochondrial fission induced by Drp1, and reducing mitochondrial dysfunction caused by mitochondrial fragmentation and vacuolation.

BACKGROUND: While emotional distress, encompassing anxiety and depression, has been associated with negative clinical outcomes, its impact across various clinical departments and general hospitals has been less explored. Previous studies with limited sample sizes have examined the effectiveness of specific treatments (e.g., antidepressants) rather than a systemic management strategy for outcome improvement in non-psychiatric inpatients. To enhance the understanding of the importance of addressing mental health care needs among non-psychiatric patients in general hospitals, this study retrospectively investigated the impacts of emotional distress and the effects of early detection and management of depression and anxiety on hospital length of stay (LOS) and rate of long LOS (LLOS, i.e., LOS >30 days) in a large sample of non-psychiatric inpatients. METHODS: This retrospective cohort study included 487,871 inpatients from 20 non-psychiatric departments of a general hospital. They were divided, according to whether they underwent a novel strategy to manage emotional distress which deployed the Huaxi Emotional Distress Index (HEI) for brief screening with grading psychological services (BS-GPS), into BS-GPS ( n = 178,883) and non-BS-GPS ( n = 308,988) cohorts. The LOS and rate of LLOS between the BS-GPS and non-BS-GPS cohorts and between subcohorts with and without clinically significant anxiety and/or depression (CSAD, i.e., HEI score ≥11 on admission to the hospital) in the BS-GPS cohort were compared using univariable analyses, multilevel analyses, and/or propensity score-matched analyses, respectively. RESULTS: The detection rate of CSAD in the BS-GPS cohort varied from 2.64% (95% confidence interval [CI]: 2.49%-2.81%) to 20.50% (95% CI: 19.43%-21.62%) across the 20 departments, with a average rate of 5.36%. Significant differences were observed in both the LOS and LLOS rates between the subcohorts with CSAD (12.7 days, 535/9590) and without CSAD (9.5 days, 3800/169,293) and between the BS-GPS (9.6 days, 4335/178,883) and non-BS-GPS (10.8 days, 11,483/308,988) cohorts. These differences remained significant after controlling for confounders using propensity score-matched comparisons. A multilevel analysis indicated that BS-GPS was negatively associated with both LOS and LLOS after controlling for sociodemographics and the departments of patient discharge and remained negatively associated with LLOS after controlling additionally for the year of patient discharge. CONCLUSION Emotional distress significantly prolonged the LOS and increased the LLOS of non-psychiatric inpatients across most departments and general hospitals. These impacts were moderated by the implementation of BS-GPS. Thus, BS-GPS has the potential as an effective, resource-saving strategy for enhancing mental health care and optimizing medical resources in general hospitals.

The rapid development of artificial intelligence (AI), especially generative AI (GenAI), has already brought, and will continue to bring, revolutionary changes to our daily production and life, as well as create new opportunities and challenges for diagnostic and therapeutic practices in the medical field. Haihe Hospital of Tianjin University collaborates with the National Supercomputer Center in Tianjin, Tianjin University, and other institutions to carry out research in areas such as smart healthcare, smart services, and smart management. We have conducted research and development of a full-process disease diagnosis and treatment assistance system based on GenAI in the field of smart healthcare. The development of this project is of great significance. The first goal is to upgrade and transform the hospital's information center, organically integrate it with existing information systems, and provide the necessary computing power storage support for intelligent services within the hospital. We have implemented the localized deployment of three models: Tianhe "Tianyuan", WiNGPT, and DeepSeek. The second is to create a digital avatar of the chief physician/chief physician's voice and image by integrating multimodal intelligent interaction technology. With generative intelligence as the core, this solution provides patients with a visual medical interaction solution. The third is to achieve deep adaptation between generative intelligence and the entire process of patient medical treatment. In this project, we have developed assistant tools such as intelligent inquiry, intelligent diagnosis and recognition, intelligent treatment plan generation, and intelligent assisted medical record generation to improve the safety, quality, and efficiency of the diagnosis and treatment process. This study introduces the content of a full-process disease diagnosis and treatment assistance system, aiming to provide references and insights for the digital transformation of the healthcare industry.

Objective To compare the efficacy of stenting in the treatment of idiopathic intracranial hypertension(IIH)complicated by different types of venous sinus stenosis(VSS).Methods The clinical data of 48 patients with IIH complicated by VSS,who received stenting therapy at the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University of China from January 2019 to September 2023,were retrospectively analyzed.According to the type of VSS,the patients were divided into intrinsic stenosis group(n=20)and the extrinsic stenosis group(n=28).The improvement of symptoms,Frisén grade of papilledema,lumbar puncture opening pressure(LPOP),trans-stenosis pressure gradient(△P)of VSS,and surgery-related complications were compared between the two groups.Results The mean age of the patients in the intrinsic stenosis group was greater than that of the patients in the extrinsic stenosis group(41.60 years vs.35.25 years,P=0.049).The length of the narrowed segment in the extrinsic stenosis group was 22.5 mm,which was significantly longer than 19.0 mm in the intrinsic stenosis group(P=0.007).The postoperative Frisén grade of papilledema in the extrinsic stenosis group was obviously lower than that in the intrinsic stenosis group(P=0.037).No statistically significant differences in the other clinical data existed between the two groups(all P＞0.05).After stenting,all of the median △P,mean LPOP,and median Frisén grade of papilledema were decreased significantly when compared with their preoperative values(all P＜0.001),and the postoperative 3-day median Frisén grade of papilledema in the extrinsic stenosis group was much lower(P=0.037).The patients were followed up for one year,the clinical symptoms of the patients in both groups were improved to varying degrees.At the time of discharge,the proportion of patients having no symptoms of papilledema in the extrinsic stenosis group was 57.1％,which was higher than 22.2％in the intrinsic stenosis group(P=0.049),and no statistically significant differences in the improvements of other symptoms existed between the two groups(all P＞0.05).There was no significant difference in the incidence of complications between the two groups(P=0.563).Conclusion Venous sinus stenting can effectively treat patients with IIH complicated by different types of VSS.

Objective To compare the clinical efficacy of medication and stenting in treating patients with idiopathic intracranial hypertension complicated by venous sinus stenosis.Methods The clinical data of 74 patients with idiopathic intracranial hypertension complicated by venous sinus stenosis,who were admitted to the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University of China from January 2020 to June 2023,were retrospectively analyzed.The patients were divided into medication group(n=35,receiving drug therapy)and stenting group(n=39,receiving stent implantation therapy).Before and after treatment,lumbar puncture and fundus examinations were performed,and the postoperative improvements in intracranial pressure and papillary oedema were evaluated.The changes in the median papillary oedema Frisén grade and the average opening pressure of lumbar puncture were compared between the two groups during hospitalization period.The improvement degrees of the clinical symptoms determined at discharge,as well as at the 6 months and 12 months after discharge were compared between the two groups.The incidence of complications during the follow-up period in the two groups was recorded.Results The time interval from onset to treatment in the stenting group was longer than that in the medication group(2 months vs.one month,P=0.021),and the differences in the other baseline data between the two groups were not statistically significant(all P＞0.05).After treatment,different degrees of improvement were obtained in both groups(all P＞0.05).At the time of discharge,the degree of median papillary oedema in the stenting group was Frisén grade I,which was lower than Frisén grade Ⅱ in the medication group(P=0.011);the average opening pressure of lumbar puncture in the stenting group was 205.26 mm H2O,which was lower than 248.14 mm H2O in the medication group(P=0.002).The proportions of patients having no symptom or showing symptom improvement in the stenting group and in the medication group at the time of discharge were 74.4％and 45.7％respectively(P=0.017),which at the time of 6 months after discharge were 84.6％and 48.6％respectively(P=0.001)and at the time of 12 months after discharge were 87.2％and 57.1％respectively(P=0.004).No statistically significant difference in the incidence of complications existed between the two groups(10.3％and 8.6％respectively,P=1.000).Conclusion For the treatment of patients with idiopathic intracranial hypertension complicated by venous sinus stenosis,stent implantation therapy is superior to medication therapy in quickly and effectively relieving papillary oedema,decreasing lumbar puncture opening pressure,and improving their corresponding symptoms and signs,with satisfactory patient's prognosis and clinical safety.

ObjectiveSodium hyaluronate (HA) was used as the research object to modify it with phenolic acid in order to obtain the molecular structure with better antioxidant activity or even new activity. MethodsIn this study, 5 kinds of phenolic acid-sodium hyaluronate was prepared by free radical-mediated grafting method, and the grafts with the highest grafting degree were selected to optimize the synthesis conditions. Then, grafts structure and physicochemical properties were analyzed. The grafts were characterized by IR, UV, ¹H NMR, FESEM and TGA spectra. The in vitro antioxidant capacity of grafts was determined by the scavenging ability of DPPH·, ABTS⁺· and O^2-·. ResultsAmong 5 kinds of phenolic acid-sodium hyaluronate, the grafting rate of ferulic acid-sodium hyaluronate copolymer (FA-HA) was highest , which was chosen as experimental sample in the following tests. Firstly, the reaction conditions were investigated and the highest grafting rate was (16.59±0.31) mg/g at the optimal preparation conditions. Then, FA-HA structure and physicochemical properties were analyzed. Data from UV, IR, ¹H NMR analyses, TGA showed that FA were successfully grafted to HA. Compared with HA, the results of gel permeation chrematography (GPC) showed that the molecular mass distribution ofFA-HA copolymer decreased from 34.4 to 31.5 ku, but the uniformity of molecular distribution was improved. FESEM results showed that the structure of copolymer exhibited a closely connected lamellar structure with a relatively smooth surface. TGA results showed that thermal stability of FA-HA had a little decline. The antioxidant performance in vitro results showed that, during 0.25-10 g/L, FA-HA can eliminate (83.76±4.86)% DPPH·, (76.95±5.06)% ABTS⁺· and (83.08±2.51)% O^2-· respectively at 10 g/L. which were higher than that of native HA and FA. ConclusionFA and HA were successfully grafted together by free radical grafting, and the grafted FA-HA had better antioxidant activity in vitro, which provided a theoretical basis for further research and development of phenolic acid-HA grafts.
