Objective To explore an artificial intelligence (AI)-based method for automated hand hygiene monitoring and to compare the effectiveness of three algorithms (UniFormerV2, TDN, C3D) in recognizing hand hygiene steps in surgical settings, thereby aiding hospital infection control. Methods From April to October 2024, we non-invasively collected 641 video recordings of healthcare staff performing hand hygiene at four-bay scrub sinks in two tertiary hospitals using overhead HD cameras. The dataset was annotated by five trained experts for model training and validation. Results Following training on 385 samples, internal validation (n=119) showed the C3D model achieved 81% accuracy, 87% recall, and an 83% F1-score. The TDN model achieved 93%, 91%, and 92% for the same metrics. The UniFormerV2 model outperformed both, with an accuracy, recall, and F1-score of 93%—an improvement of over 10 percentage points compared to traditional CNNs (TDN, C3D). It also achieved an 84% accuracy in external validation, demonstrating strong generalization. Conclusion The UniFormerV2 model is more accurate than CNN-based models for hand hygiene step recognition and shows robust performance in external validation. It presents a viable tool for healthcare facilities to enhance hand hygiene management, ultimately improving medical quality and patient safety.
2.Association of personality and sleep quality with psychological distress of junior and senior high school stduents
Chinese Journal of School Health 2026;47(1):65-69
Objective:
To explore the effects of personality and sleep quality with psychological distress of junior and senior high school stduents, so as to provide a reference basis for precise interventions of junior and senior high school students mental health.
Methods:
In October 2023, a convenience sampling method was used to select 9 034 students aged 12-17 from Shiyan City as the study subjects. The Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) and Kessler Psychological Distress Scale (K10) were used to collect information on sleep quality and psychological distress of junior and senior high school stduents. Between group comparison was conducted by using t-test and Chi-square test. Generalized linear models were employed to analyze the interaction and joint effects of personality and sleep quality on psychological distress.
Results:
The generalized linear model analysis showed that the interaction between personality and sleep quality on psychological distress was statistically significant of junior and senior high school students(effect size=0.80, P <0.01). The general linear model analysis indicated that, after adjusting for variables such as age, gender, screen time, and daily sitting time with the extroverted and good sleep quality group as the reference, the introverted and poor sleep quality group had the largest mean difference in psychological distress scores (difference=0.51, P <0.05). When stratified by sleep quality, psychological distress scores were higher in the introverted and neutral personality groups with both poor and good sleep quality compared to the extroverted group (poor sleep quality: introverted difference=3.71, neutral difference=1.14; good sleep quality: introverted difference=2.23, neutral difference=0.57, all P < 0.05). When stratified by personality, psychological distress scores were higher in the poor sleep quality groups for introverted, neutral, and extroverted individuals compared to their good sleep quality counterparts (differences=8.66, 7.83, 7.34, all P < 0.05 ).
Conclusions
Personality and sleep quality have interactive and joint effects on psychological distress of junior and senior high school stduents. Personalized psychological interventions should be developed based on personality and sleep quality.

Intraflagellar transport (IFT) is a core mechanism for ciliary assembly, length maintenance, ciliary proteome homeostasis and signal transduction. Most proteins required for ciliary structure and function are synthesized in the cytoplasm. Because the ciliary compartment is separated from the cell body by the selective barrier of the transition zone, these proteins cannot freely equilibrate between the cytoplasm and the cilium. Consequently, axonemal components, membrane proteins and signaling molecules must be actively imported into cilia, retrieved from the ciliary compartment, and recycled or degraded through highly ordered transport and sorting pathways. The IFT system is mainly composed of the IFT-A complex, IFT-B complex, kinesin-2, dynein-2 and the Bardet-Biedl syndrome protein complex (BBSome). Through coordinated anterograde and retrograde transport, these modules mediate the dynamic trafficking of different classes of ciliary cargoes. Anterograde transport delivers structural and membrane-associated components from the ciliary base toward the ciliary tip, whereas retrograde transport retrieves IFT components and selected cargoes back toward the ciliary base and cytoplasm. In this way, IFT not only supports the construction of the axoneme but also contributes to the maintenance of ciliary composition and the regulation of ciliary signaling activity. In recent years, advances in cryo-electron microscopy, in situ cryo-electron tomography and single-molecule imaging have greatly improved our understanding of the molecular mechanisms underlying IFT. These approaches have revealed how IFT trains are assembled at the ciliary base, how they move along axonemal microtubule tracks, how they undergo directional switching at the ciliary tip, and how cargoes are retrieved and recycled. Among the IFT modules, IFT-B acts as the major scaffold of IFT trains. It participates in cargo loading, motor coupling and initiation of anterograde transport. IFT-A is involved in retrograde transport, membrane protein adaptor function and train remodeling. The BBSome, through reversible association with the IFT system, regulates ciliary membrane protein sorting, signaling receptor clearance and renewal of the ciliary proteome. These functions indicate that the IFT machinery is not a simple linear transport pathway, but rather a dynamic and reconfigurable transport system. The conversion of transport direction is a key step in the IFT cycle. This process is closely associated with disassembly of anterograde trains, dissociation of kinesin-2, activation of dynein-2 at the ciliary tip and reassembly of retrograde trains. In terms of pathogenic mechanisms, IFT abnormalities may cause ciliopathies through four major pathways: defects in ciliary assembly and structure, abnormal localization of ciliary cargoes, dysregulation of signaling pathways, and impaired cargo unloading and retrieval. These defects can affect multiple organ systems, including the retina, kidney, skeleton, respiratory tract, reproductive system, and neuro-metabolic system. Current therapeutic strategies are still mainly based on symptomatic support and maintenance of organ function. Overall, IFT is a dynamic transport system jointly regulated by axonemal structure, motor activity, cargo selection and cellular signaling. It links ciliary architecture with protein turnover and signaling regulation, thereby playing a fundamental role in both ciliary homeostasis and ciliopathy pathogenesis. Further elucidation of IFT regulatory mechanisms and their relationships with disease phenotypes will help promote mechanism-based classification, genetic diagnosis and precision intervention for ciliopathies.

Body weight abnormalities, including overweight, obesity, and underweight, have become a dual public health challenge in Chinese adults: overweight and obesity lead to a variety of chronic complications, while underweight increases the risks of malnutrition, sarcopenia, and organ dysfunction. To systematically address these issues, multidisciplinary experts in endocrinology, sports science, nutrition, and psychiatry from various regions have held multiple weight management seminars. Based on the latest epidemiological data and clinical evidence, they expanded the guideline to include assessment and intervention strategies for underweight, in addition to the core content of obesity management. This guideline outlines the etiological mechanisms, evaluation methods, and multidimensional management strategies for overweight and obesity, covering key areas such as diagnosis and assessment, medical nutrition therapy, exercise prescription, pharmacological intervention, and psychological support. It is intended to provide a scientific and standardized approach to weight management across the adult population, aiming to curb the rising prevalence of obesity, mitigate complications associated with abnormal body weight, and improve nutritional status and overall quality of life.

Objective:To explore the relationship between life events, anxiety, depression, and behavior problems in adolescents.Methods:From September to October 2022, the cluster sampling method was used to select 5 341 adolescents from 4 middle schools in Xinxiang urban area.The subjects and their parents were investigated by the adolescent self-rating life events check list (ASLEC), generalized anxiety disorder scale (GAD-7), patient health questionnaire (PHQ-9), and child behavior checklist (CBCL). SPSS 27.0 software was used for Spearman correlation analysis, and AMOS 28.0 software was used to construct the structural equation model.Results:The scores of anxiety, depression, and behavioral problems were 1 (0, 4), 1 (0, 4), and 3 (0, 10). The total score of life events was 5 (1, 13), and the dimensions scored as follows: interpersonal conflict 1 (0, 4), academic pressure 2 (0, 5), punishment 0 (0, 2), loss 0 (0, 0), health and adaptation problem 0 (0, 1), and others 0 (0, 2). There were positive correlations between life events and its dimensions, depression, anxiety and behavioral problems ( r=0.28-0.69, all P<0.01). In the overall population, anxiety and depression played parallel mediating roles in the impact of life events on behavior problems. Life events could positively predict anxiety ( β=0.68, P<0.01), and anxiety could positively predict behavior problems ( β=0.04, P=0.02). Life events could positively predict depression ( β=0.77, P<0.01), and depression could positively predict behavior problems ( β=0.18, P<0.01). The standardized total effect size of the impact of life events on behavioral problems was 0.622 (95% CI=0.564-0.675). The standardized direct effect size and indirect effect size were 0.460 (95% CI=0.374-0.539) and 0.162 (95% CI=0.108-0.218), accounting for 74.0% and 26.0%of the total effect, respectively. After stratification by gender, the results for male adolescents were consistent with the overall population, while the mediating effect of anxiety was not significant in the female adolescents. Conclusion:Life events can lead to anxiety and depression in adolescents, thereby increasing the risk of behavior problems.
