ObjectiveTo observe the clinical efficacy of electroacupuncture in treatment of simple obesity patients and its effects on the metabolism-inflammation network. MethodsSeventy-two patients with simple obesity were randomly divided into a electroacupuncture group and a sham electroacupuncture group， with 36 patients in each group. In the electroacupuncture group， conventional acupuncture was applied at Zhongwan （CV 12）， bilateral Tianshu （ST 25）， bilateral Daheng （SP15）， Qihai （CV 6）， Guanyuan （CV 4）， bilateral Zusanli （ST 36） and Fenglong （ST 40）. The sham electroacupuncture group used placebo needle at same acupoints as the electroacupuncture group. Both groups were given sparse-dense waves with a frequency of 2/10 Hz， 30 minutes per session， 3 times a week， for a total of 8 weeks of treatment. The changes of human body parameters including body weight， body mass index （BMI）， waist circumference， and body fat percentage （BFP）， metabolic factors including serum fasting blood glucose （FBG）， triglyceride （TG）， total cholesterol （TC）， high density lipoprotein （HDL）， low density lipoprotein （LDL）， leptin， and ghrelin， and inflammatory factors including interleukin-6 （IL-6） and tumor necrosis factor α （TNF-α） were compared before and after treatment. Correlations between changes in leptin， ghrelin and inflammatory factors were further analyzed. ResultsWaist circumference was significantly reduced after treatment in both groups compared with baseline （P＜0.05）， and the post-treatment waist circumference was lower in the electroacupuncture group than in the sham electroacupuncture group （P＜0.05）； body weight， BMI and BFP decreased significantly after treatment compared to pretreatment levels in the electroacupuncture group （P＜0.05）. Serum leptin， IL-6 and TNF-α declined significantly after treatment in both groups versus baseline （P＜0.05）； the electroacupuncture group had lower post-treatment levels of leptin， IL-6 and TNF-α as well as larger pre-post changes than the sham group （P＜0.05）； ghrelin increased markedly after treatment in both groups （P＜0.05）， with higher post-treatment ghrelin and greater pre-post variation observed in the electroacupuncture group （P＜0.05）. In the electroacupuncture group， changes in ghrelin were negatively correlated with IL-6 and positively correlated with TNF-α （P＜0.01）； in the sham electroacupuncture group， ghrelin changes were negatively correlated with both IL-6 and TNF-α， whereas leptin changes were positively correlated with the two inflammatory markers （P＜0.01）. ConclusionElectroacupuncture can effectively improve clinical manifestations， as well as regulate serum metabolic and pro-inflammatory factors in patients with simple obesity， and discrepant correlation patterns of metabolism-inflammation are observed between the two groups.

Objective: To analyze the compliance status of physical fitness indicator and lifestyle characteristics among secondary vocational school students, as well as their associations, so as to provide a reference for physical fitness promotion among secondary vocational school students. Methods: Using a convenience sampling method, a questionnaire survey and physical fitness tests were conducted from September to December 2024 among 5 141 secondary vocational school students recruited from 16 secondary vocational schools across 8 provinces/municipalities in China, including Fujian, Chongqing, Guangdong, Guangxi, Hubei, Jiangxi, Shanghai and Zhejiang. Data on lifestyle factors were collected using a self designed questionnaire combined with standardized scales, including dietary habits, unhealthy behaviors, and 24 hour behaviors (physical activity, screen time, and sleep behavior). Multivariable Logistic regression model was used to analyze the associations of individual lifestyle behaviors and clustering of unhealthy lifestyle behaviors with non-compliance in physical fitness indicators among secondary vocational school students. Results: The compliance rates for waist circumference, vital capacity, grip strength, standing long jump, 30 second sit ups, 20 meter shuttle run, 50 meter dash, sit and reach, 20 second side steps among secondary vocational school students were 55.9%, 89.6%, 81.8%, 79.4%, 77.8%, 61.4%, 87.0%, 12.6%, and 63.5%, respectively, with a non-overweight/obesity rate of 78.9%. The reporting rates of daily breakfast consumption, milk consumption, and vegetable consumption were 58.9%, 18.3%, and 37.5%, respectively. The reporting rates of frequent takeout consumption, frequent sugar sweetened beverage consumption, smoking, alcohol drinking, insufficient moderate to vigorous physical activity (MVPA), excessive screen time, and insufficient sleep were 30.0%, 43.8%, 8.4%, 15.8%, 42.9%, 90.8%, and 42.6%, respectively. Multivariable Logistic regression analysis showed that secondary vocational school students with insufficient MVPA had higher risks of non-compliance in vital capacity, grip strength, standing long jump, 30 second sit ups, 20 meter shuttle run, 50 meter dash, and 20 second side steps ( OR =1.22- 1.60 ); secondary vocational school students who consumed breakfast daily had lower risks of non-compliance in vital capacity and overweight/obesity ( OR =0.81, 0.85); daily vegetable consumption was associated with a lower risk of vital capacity non-compliance ( OR =0.72); frequent takeout consumption was associated with an increased risk of non-compliance in the sit and reach test ( OR =1.28); smoking was associated with increased risks of non-compliance in the 20 meter shuttle run and 20 second side steps ( OR =1.38, 1.58) (all P <0.05). Regarding the clustering of unhealthy behaviors, secondary vocational school students with 4- 5 clustered unhealthy behaviors had higher risks of non-compliance in waist circumference and standing long jump; those with≥6 clustered behaviors had higher risks of non-compliance in standing long jump, 20 meter shuttle run, and 20 second side step ( OR = 1.17-1.36, all P <0.05). Conclusions The clustering of unhealthy behaviors is negatively associated with physical fitness status among secondary vocational school students. Secondary vocational schools should prioritize the promotion of comprehensive lifestyle management to improve the physical fitness levels of secondary vocational school students.

Objective: To analyze factors impacting mental health status of medical students based on ecological systems theory, so as to provide reference for the mental health promotion system for medical students. Methods: In June 2024, 1 760 medical school students randomly selected from 19 different kinds of medical colleges in eastern China by stratified cluster were surveyed using questionnaires and expert interviews. Descriptive statistics, cross analysis, hierarchical linear regression analysis, structural equation models were used for data analysis. Results: Medical school students had higher satisfaction with the school (65.85%) and a great sense of perceived social support (57.16%). Furthermore, 91.14% of the students had normal interpersonal relationships. However, 44.89% reported that their mental health was impacted by high level of depression. The hierarchical linear regression analysis showed that the mental health outcomes of the medical students were positively predicted by higher perceived social support scores ( β =-11.40), institutional satisfaction ( β =-4.85 ), and lower help seeking stigma scores ( β =9.31) ( P <0.05). The structural equation modeling showed that the status of both perceived social support and self help seeking stigma had significant impacts on depression severity ( β =-0.32, -0.53) and interpersonal relationship sensitivity ( β =-0.31, 0.58) among medical students ( P <0.01).Through expert interviews, collaborations between the school and the tripartite organization (families, universities and society) was of growing importance. Conclusions Perceived social support and self stigma have a significant impact on the mental health status of medical students. The problem of self stigma of medical students should be paid attention to. Therefore, families, universities and society should work together to improve the mental health of medical students.

Objective:To investigate the diagnosis，therapeutic strategy and early prognosis of Scimitar syndrome in pediatric patients.Methods:Clinical data of 21 children with Scimitar syndrome admitted to the Department of Cardiothoracic Surgery of Shanghai Children's Medical Center from January 2014 to December 2021 were retrospectively analyzed，and divided into 11 cases in the infantile-type group and 10 cases in the adult-type group.Results:Twenty-one children with Scimitar syndrome，10 males and 11 females，aged 5 days to 10 years old. Compared with the adult-type group，the infant-type group had a high proportion of preoperative clinical symptoms( P<0.05)，a high concomitant rate of intracardiac malformations (100% vs. 40%， P=0.002)，a big size of aortopulmonary collateral(APC)[(0.77±0.25) mm/kg vs.(0.36±0.13) mm/kg， P=0.016]，a high incidence of pulmonary hypertension(91.0% vs. 50.0%， P=0.038), and a high proportion of severe pulmonary hypertension(50 % vs. 0). There was a high rate of postoperative complications of low cardiac output syndrome (36.4% vs. 0， P=0.034)，prolonged postoperative mechanical ventilation [(73.22±44.75) h vs. (19.5±12.79) h， P=0.007]，and prolonged length of ICU stay[(7.89±3.37) d vs. (2.50±1.26) d， P<0.001]. Eleven cases underwent surgical treatment only，and 10 cases received hybrid operation with APC occlusion. The survival rate of the whole group was 90.5%，and there was no case of pulmonary venous obstruction in the early postoperative period. Systolic pulmonary artery pressure/systolic artery pressure decreased significantly after surgery in 15 children with pulmonary arterial hypertension( P<0.01).Five cases in the infantile-type group still had pulmonary hypertension. Conclusion:Surgical effect of Scimitar syndrome in pediatric patients is satisfactory. Infants with Scimitar syndrome usually have more severe symptoms, higher incidence of severe pulmonary hypertension and relatively longer postoperative recovery time.

Objective To analyze the clinical significance of ductoscopy,mammography,and high-frequency color Doppler ultrasonography in diagnosis of nipple bloody discharge combined with intraductal space occupying lesions.Methods The medical records of 198 patients with nipple bloody discharge combined with intraductal space occupying lesions who underwent surgical treatment from January 2023 to December 2023 were retrospectively analyzed,all the subjects were examined by ductoscopy,mammography and high-frequency color Doppler ultrasonography before operation.The results of postoperative pathology were used as the gold standard to compare and evaluate the efficacy of single and combined use of the above three methods in the diagnosis of nipple bloody discharge combined with intraductal space occupying lesions.Results The results of postoperative pathological diagnosis showed that 152 cases of intraductal benign lesions were intraductal papilloma of the breast.There were 46 malignant lesions,of which 25 were intraductal carcinoma and 21 were invasive ductal carcinoma.The detection rates of nipple bloody discharge combined with intraductal space occupying lesions were 95.45%,81.31%,84.85%and 97.47%,respectively,by ductoscopy,mammography,high-frequency color Doppler ultrasonography and combined examination.Among them,the detection rate of ductoscopy and combined examination were significantly higher than that of mammography and high-frequency color Doppler ultrasonography(P<0.05),there was no significant difference between the detection rate of ductoscopy and combined examination(P>0.05),and there was no significant difference between the detection rate of mammography and high-frequency color Doppler ultrasonography(P>0.05).The sensitivity,specificity,and accuracy of diagnosing nipple bloody discharge combined with intraductal space occupying lesions using ductoscopy were 91.30%,97.20%,and 95.77%,respectively.The above indicators of mammography were 65.00%,94.21%,and 86.96%,respectively.The above indicators of high-frequency color Doppler ultrasonography were 70.73%,96.06%,and 89.88%,respectively.The above indicators of combination of the three methods were 95.65%,97.28%,and 96.89%,respectively.The sensitivity and accuracy of the combined examination of the three methods and the use of ductoscopy alone for the diagnosis of nipple bloody discharge combined with intraductal space occupying lesions were significantly higher than those of mammography and high-frequency color Doppler ultrasonography(P<0.05).However,there was no significant difference between mammography and high-frequency color Doppler ultrasonography(P>0.05),and there was also no significant difference between the combined examination of the three methods and the use of ductoscopy alone(P>0.05).There was no significant difference in diagnostic specificity among the four groups(P>0.05).Conclusion The diagnostic sensitivity and accuracy of ductoscopy for nipple bloody discharge combined with intraductal space occupying lesions are significantly higher than those of mammography and high-frequency color Doppler ultrasonography.The combined examination of the three can improve diagnostic efficiency to a certain extent,but the effect is limited.

Objective To investigate alterations in interhemispheric functional connectivity(FC)in the cerebral cortices connected via the corpus callosum in patients with Alzheimer's disease(AD),and to explore their relationships with cognitive function and activities of daily living.Methods Resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging data were collected from 28 patients with Alzheimer's dementia(d-AD),47 patients with mild cognitive impairment(MCI),and 37 healthy controls(HC).Using a trancallosal tract template,32 pairs of homologous cortical brain regions directly connected to 32 subregions of the corpus callosum were selected as regions of interest for interhemispheric FC analysis.Further correlation analyses were performed between FC values in patient groups and their scores on the Montreal Cognitive Assessment-Basic(MoCA-B)Scale and the Activities of Daily Living(ADL)Scale.Results Compared with HC group,both MCI and d-AD groups exhibited hyperconnectivity(significantly increased FC)in interhemispheric non-homologous brain regions.Specifically,hyperconnectivity in the MCI group was scattered across the frontal,parietal,temporal,and occipital lobes,while in the d-AD group,it was concentrated within the precentral and postcentral gyri.Notably,hyperconnectivity involving the prefrontal and occipital lobes in the MCI group showed significant declines in the d-AD group.The interhemispheric homologous FC in the d-AD group reduced more significantly than the MCI group.Additionally,in the d-AD group,2 interhemispheric FC within the prefrontal lobe(between the bilateral orbital parts of the inferior frontal gyrus,and between the left medial frontal gyrus and the right middle frontal gyrus)were correlated with MoCA-B scores,and 2 FC(between the bilateral middle occipital gyri,and between the left inferior parietal lobule and the right middle frontal gyrus)were correlated with ADL scores.Conclusion MCI and d-AD exhibit distinct patterns of interhemispheric FC alterations,and the interhemispheric FC changes in AD patients are non-progressive.The close relationships between interhemispheric homologous/non-homologous FC and MoCA-B/ADL scores in d-AD patients provide an objective basis and reference for clinical neuromodulation.
