The Proctor's reporting guideline for implementation strategies represents a landmark framework in the field of implementation science, aiming to address the issue of inconsistent reporting in implementation research by standardizing the naming, definition, and operationalization of implementation strategies, thereby enhancing the credibility and utility of research findings. This paper provides an in-depth interpretation of the core connotations of this reporting guideline and illustrates its application in developing interview outlines and specifying implementation strategies, using a brief smoking cessation intervention project as a case study. Through this reporting guideline, abstract recommendations for implementation are systematically transformed into clear, multidimensional operational guides, significantly improving the transparency of strategy connotations and the replicability of actual execution. Meanwhile, the case study highlights the flexibility of the guideline, which allows researchers to adapt the content and format of strategies based on local resources and cultural contexts, thus enhancing practical adaptability while maintaining scientific rigor. However, the application of Proctor's reporting guideline still faces challenges, primarily manifested in the potential confusion surrounding the constructs of temporality and dose in practice, as well as the challenges that the inherent flexibility of the guideline may pose to the assessment of fidelity and effectiveness. Despite these limitations, the reporting guideline remains a vital tool for implementation research; future efforts should focus on optimizing its application—through refining operational guidelines, standardizing flexible adaptations, and involving stakeholders—to better guide implementation studies and continuously promote high-quality development in the field.

AIM: To analyze the factors influencing total corneal surgically induced astigmatism(SIA)following implantable collamer lens(ICL)implantation.METHODS:This prospective study enrolled 162 patients(162 eyes)who underwent ICL implantation at our hospital between July 2023 and January 2024. Based on preoperative assessment of anticipated postoperative residual astigmatism, different incisions were selected. Superior incision was selected for patients with expected residual astigmatism with the rule in 75 eyes, and temporal incision was selected for patients with expected residual astigmatism againist the rule in 87 eyes. Parameters including total corneal refractive power, incision length, internal ostium-to-visual axis distance, central corneal thickness, preoperative total corneal astigmatism, and corneal diameter were measured using the Pentacam anterior segment analyzer before and at 3 mo after surgery. Postoperative total corneal SIA was calculated based on the changes in total corneal refractive power. Multiple linear regression analysis was performed to assess the influence of the above parameters on postoperative total corneal SIA.RESULTS:A total of 162 cases(162 eyes)that implanted with ICL were included in the analysis, and 8 cases were lost to follow-up, with a loss rate of 4.9%. Eventually 154 cases(154 eyes)completed the research. The superior incision group comprised 72 cases(72 eyes), including 17 males and 55 females, with a mean age of 25.96±6.17 years, while the temporal incision group comprised 82 cases(82 eyes), including 20 males and 62 females, with a mean age of 27.79±6.47 years. No significant difference in postoperative total corneal SIA was observed between the two groups [0.31(0.21, 0.49)D vs. 0.27(0.13, 0.485)D, P=0.159]. Multiple linear regression analysis revealed that internal ostium-to-visual axis distance and preoperative total corneal astigmatism significantly influenced postoperative total corneal SIA in the superior incision group(P=0.001). The regression equation was: postoperative total corneal SIA=0.71-0.381×internal ostium-to-visual axis distance+0.16×preoperative total corneal astigmatism. No significant influencing factors for postoperative total corneal SIA were identified in the temporal incision group.CONCLUSION: During ICL implantation, the magnitude of total corneal SIA is comparable between superior and temporal incisions. For patients receiving a superior incision, the internal ostium-to-visual axis distance and preoperative total corneal astigmatism value can be used to quantitatively predict postoperative total corneal SIA to a certain extent, thereby aiding in the optimization of postoperative visual quality.

Objective:
To analyze the developmental trajectories of clustered health risk behaviors and their association with self-esteem and lonelinesss among junior high school students, so as to provide a reference for formulating comprehensive prevention and control measures of health risk behaviors among adolescents.
Methods:
In October 2023, 1 165 first year junior high school students from two schools of Jishou City in Hunan Province were selected by convenient sampling method for three follow up surveys (T1:October 2023; T2:April 2024; T3:October 2024). The Adolescent Health Risk Behavior Questionnaire, Rosenberg Self esteem Scale and Loneliness Scale were used to assess health risk behaviors, self esteem and loneliness, respectively. Latent growth curve modeling and latent growth mixture modeling were applied to analyze the developmental trajectories of clustered health risk behaviors among junior high school students. Logistic regression was used to analyze the association of the developmental trajectories of clustered health risk behaviors with self esteem and loneliness among junior high school students.
Results:
The overall developmental trajectories among junior high school students showed a declining trend (intercept=0.15, slope=-1.65, both P <0.05), with three heterogeneous categories:low risk improvement group ( n =862, 74.0%), moderate risk stable group ( n =260, 22.3%), and high risk deterioration group ( n =43, 3.7%). After adjusting the status of the left behind individuals,using the low risk improvement group as the reference category in multinomial Logistic regression analysis, results indicated that higher loneliness scores among junior high school students increased the risks of belonging to the moderate risk stable group ( OR=1.02, 95%CI =1.00- 1.04 ) and the high risk deterioration group ( OR=1.04, 95%CI =1.00-1.08), while higher self esteem scores reduced the risks of belonging to the moderate risk stable group ( OR=0.93, 95%CI =0.91-0.96) and the high risk deterioration group ( OR=0.88, 95%CI =0.83-0.94) (all P <0.05).
Conclusions
The overall trend of clustered health risk behaviors among junior high school students gradually improves, and the self esteem and loneliness are significant correlative factors. Targeted intervention measures should be developed for the junior high school students, with a focus on enhancing their self esteem and alleviating loneliness.

In this paper, the name, origin, producing area, harvesting, processing and functional indications of Arcae Concha were systematically combed and verified by consulting the ancient and modern literature, in order to provide a basis for the development of famous classical formulas containing Arcae Concha. Arcae Concha was first recorded in the name of Han in Bencao Shiyi, but later, due to the influence of LI Shizhen's error of combining Han item with Kuiha in the Ming dynasty, there were aliases such as Kuilu and Fulao, and Yizong Bidu began to include Walengzi as its correct name and has been used ever since. The textual descriptions and illustrations of the medicinal materials of Arcae Concha contained in the materia medica of the past generations were consistent with the modern Arca inflata, A. subcrenata and A. granosa. In ancient times, there were medicinal records of two parts of shell and meat, but now the shell is used as medicine, and the meat is mostly edible. In ancient times, Zhejiang, Shandong, Guangdong and Guangxi were the main producing areas, and Zhejiang was the best. It is now believed that A. inflata is mostly distributed in the northern part of the Huanghai Sea, A. granosa is mostly distributed in the coastal areas south of Shandong Peninsula in China, and A. subcrenata is widely distributed in the coastal areas of China. Its quality is better in a complete, white, no residual meat and sand. In ancient times, there was no clear harvesting period, and the processing was mainly based on vinegar quenching after calcination or powdering of calcined shell, but now the harvesting period is autumn and winter. After harvesting, it is directly washed and crushed for raw use or processed by calcined method. The records of the medicinal materials in the past dynasties on the properties of Arcae Concha were mainly warm, sweet, salty and mild, and it is now believed that Arcae Concha is salty in taste and mild in nature. In ancient times, it was believed that Arcae Concha were mainly used for coldness in the heart and abdomen, coldness in the waist and spine, benefiting the five internal organs, strengthening the stomach. Nowadays, it is believed that Arcae Concha can eliminate phlegm and remove blood stasis, soften the hardness and dissipate the lumps, produce acid and relieve pain. It can be used in the treatment of stubborn phlegm, gall tumor, scrofula and other symptoms. In conclusion, it is suggested that for the famous classical formulas containing Arcae Concha, the corresponding methods should be selected according to the processing requirements of the drug in the formulas, while those without processing requirements can be determined according to the functional position of the products.

OBJECTIVE To evaluate the efficacy, safety and economics of the centrally procured generic versus original esomeprazole in the treatment of acute non-variceal upper gastrointestinal bleeding (ANVUGIB). METHODS A retrospective collection of real-world clinical data was conducted for ANVUGIB patients who received treatment at Shenzhen People’s Hospital and University of Hong Kong-Shenzhen Hospital from January 2018 to March 2024. Patients were divided into imported original drug group (original drug group, 221 cases) and centrally procured generic drug group (generic drug group, 75 cases) according to the types of drug used. Propensity score matching (PSM) was performed at a ratio of 3∶1 to compare the clinical efficacy, safety and economics between the two groups. RESULTS Totally 241 patients were included after PSM, with 170 in the original drug group and 71 in the generic drug group. There were no significant differences between the two groups in terms of rebleeding rate, rate of second endoscopic intervention, blood transfusion rate, length of hospital stay, mortality due to gastrointestinal bleeding, 30-day readmission due to rebleeding, and overall survival rate (P>0.05). The incidence of adverse events among all patients in both groups also showed no statistically significant difference (P>0.05); furthermore, the adverse events reported by the respective hospitals to the National Center for ADR Monitoring were comparable between the two groups. After PSM, the median total drug cost and high-dose esomeprazole cost in the generic drug group were significantly lower than those in the original drug group, while the median nursing fee and bed fee were significantly higher than those in the original drug group (P<0.05). There was no statistically significant difference between the two groups in terms of median total hospitalization expenses, total treatment costs, laboratory fees, examination fees, material costs, or consultation fees (P>0.05). CONCLUSIONS The clinical efficacy and safety of centrally procured generic esomeprazole in the treatment of ANVUGIB are comparable to those of the original drug, and it is more economical.

In order to investigate the mechanical response of lumbar vertebrae during gait cycle in adolescents with idiopathic scoliosis (AIS), the present study was based on computed tomography (CT) data of AIS patients to construct model of the left support phase (ML) and model of the right support phase (MR), respectively. Firstly, material properties, boundary conditions and load loading were set to simulate the lumbar vertebra-pelvis model. Then, the difference of stress and displacement in the lumbar spine between ML and MR was compared based on the stress and displacement cloud map. The results showed that in ML, the lumbar stress was mostly distributed on the convex side, while in MR, it was mostly distributed on the concave side. The stress of the two types of stress mainly gathered near the vertebral arch plate, and the stress of the vertebral arch plate was transmitted to the vertebral body through the pedicle with the progress of gait. The average stress of the intervertebral tissue in MR was greater than that in ML, and the difference of stress on the convex and convex side was greater. The displacement of lumbar vertebrae in ML decreased gradually from L1 to L5. The opposite is true in MR. In conclusion, this study can accurately quantify the stress on the lumbar spine during gait, and may provide guidance for brace design and clinical decision making.

Ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA) is a naturally occurring, low-toxicity, and hydrophilic bile acid (BA) in the human body that is converted by intestinal flora using primary BA. Solute carrier family 7 member 11 (SLC7A11) functions to uptake extracellular cystine in exchange for glutamate, and is highly expressed in a variety of human cancers. Retroperitoneal liposarcoma (RLPS) refers to liposarcoma originating from the retroperitoneal area. Lipidomics analysis revealed that UDCA was one of the most significantly downregulated metabolites in sera of RLPS patients compared with healthy subjects. The augmentation of UDCA concentration (≥25 μg/mL) demonstrated a suppressive effect on the proliferation of liposarcoma cells. [15N2]-cystine and [13C5]-glutamine isotope tracing revealed that UDCA impairs cystine uptake and glutathione (GSH) synthesis. Mechanistically, UDCA binds to the cystine transporter SLC7A11 to inhibit cystine uptake and impair GSH de novo synthesis, leading to reactive oxygen species (ROS) accumulation and mitochondrial oxidative damage. Furthermore, UDCA can promote the anti-cancer effects of ferroptosis inducers (Erastin, RSL3), the murine double minute 2 (MDM2) inhibitors (Nutlin 3a, RG7112), cyclin dependent kinase 4 (CDK4) inhibitor (Abemaciclib), and glutaminase inhibitor (CB839). Together, UDCA functions as a cystine exchange factor that binds to SLC7A11 for antitumor activity, and SLC7A11 is not only a new transporter for BA but also a clinically applicable target for UDCA. More importantly, in combination with other antitumor chemotherapy or physiotherapy treatments, UDCA may provide effective and promising treatment strategies for RLPS or other types of tumors in a ROS-dependent manner.

Chinese Journal of School Health 2025;46(3):431-434
Objective:
To explore the relationship between visual acuity and physical fitness of university freshmen, so as to provide reference for myopia prevention and control for freshmen.
Methods:
From October to November 2022, 2 160 college freshman without majoring in public safety administration, selected from Guangxi Police College in 2022 by using the stratified cluster random sampling method, were reviewed for the results of visual acuity test and physical fitness scores. The physical fitness indices were evaluated by using the Z scores of physical fitness test scores, and the strength of association between the level of physical fitness index and myopia was analyzed by using Logistic regression model.
Results:
Among 2 160 college freshman without majoring in public safety administration, 917 (42.5%) students were diagnosed screening myopia, including 66 (3.1%) cases of high myopia, 383 (17.7%) cases of moderate myopia and 468 (21.7%) cases of mild myopia. The differences in the distribution of visual acuity tests among students with different physical fitness indices, body mass index, and gender were statistically significant ( Z/H=54.50, 49.53, 15.51, P <0.01). Low level and low middle level physical fitness indices were associated with screening myopia among freshmen[ OR (95% CI )=2.81(1.93-4.08),1.87(1.38-2.54)], and low level physical fitness indexes were associated with high myopia [ OR (95% CI )=7.22(2.33-22.32)] ( P <0.01).
Conclusions
Screening myopia among college freshman without majoring in public safety administration is related to physical fitness, and low level and low middle level physical fitness index are risk factors for myopia. Improving the level of physical fitness might be effective in preventing myopia.

Objective To systematically evaluate the radiation impact of radioactive sources used in online elemental analyzers in cement enterprises on the surrounding environment, and to provide a scientific basis for radiation monitoring and safety management at the application sites of this type of radioactive sources. Methods A statistical analysis was conducted on 15 cement enterprises in Guangxi Province using online elemental analyzers with 252Cf as the radioactive source. On-site investigation of radiation safety management and on-site monitoring of radiation environment were performed, followed by an evaluation based on the collected data. Results Although the gamma radiation ambient dose equivalent rate and neutron ambient dose equivalent rate increased around the sites using online elemental analyzers with 252Cf as the radioactive source, they all met the requirements of the Radiological Health Protection Requirements for Instruments with Sealed Sources (GBZ 125—2009). Conclusion Under the current usage and management conditions, the application of this type of radioactive sources has controllable radiation impact on the surrounding environment, and will not pose a threat to public health and environmental safety. However, continuous strengthening of radiation safety management measures and regular radiation monitoring work are still needed to ensure the safe use of radioactive sources, further reducing potential radiation risks and providing strong guarantees for the safe application of radioactive sources in online elemental analyzers in cement enterprises.
