Objective: To explore the correlation between blind box consumption and non-suicidal self-injury(NSSI) among middle school students, so as to provide new theoretical insights for the prevention of NSSI. Methods: Using stratified random cluster sampling method, 2 807 middle school students aged 11-19 years old were selected from Hunan and Gansu provinces from November 2024 to March 2025. The blind box consumption questionnaire and Functional Assessment of Self mutilation Scale were administered to collect data on students blind box consumption frequency, as well as NSSI behavior. The χ 2 test was used to compare differences in the distribution of NSSI across different groups. Multivariate Logistic regression analysis was performed to infer the correlation and gender differences. Results: A total of 15.3% of middle school students reported having at least one NSSI incident in the past year, among which the reported rates of occasional NSSI (1-4 times) and repeated NSSI (≥5 times) were 5.5% and 9.8% respectively. The results of univariate analysis showed that there was statistically significant different in NSSI distribution among groups with different blind box consumption frequencies ( χ 2=55.72, P <0.05). After adjusting for confounding factors such as age, gender, school stage, family type, discipline style, pocket money, impulsiveness and emotion management, the results of multiple Logistic regression models showed that compared with the group without blind box consumption, the risks of "occasional NSSI" and "repeated NSSI" were higher in the group with blind box consumption ( OR =1.54, 1.66), and the frequency of blind box consumption(continous variable) was positively correlated with the risks of "occasional NSSI" and "repeated NSSI" among middle school students ( OR =1.26, 1.34)(all P <0.05).After gender stratification, the consumption behavior of blind boxes and the frequency of blind box consumption (continuous variable) of boys and girls were associated with "repeated NSSI"(boys: OR =1.61, 1.32, girls: OR =1.65, 1.35), and only in the male group was a correlation between blind box consumption and "occasional NSSI" observed ( OR =2.27) (all P <0.05). Conclusion Blind box consumption may be related to NSSI among middle school students, and there are gender differences in its correlation with NSSI among middle school students.

PURPOSE: This study aimed to evaluate the accuracy of the ultrasonic jaw tracking system by comparing with the conventional electronic system in recording condylar movements. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Twenty-six subjects with normal occlusion participated in the study. The CADIAX® 4 and Jaw Motion Analyzer (JMA) systems were used to record condylar movement trajectories during mandibular border movements (protrusive/retrusive, lateral, and wide mouth opening), with each movement repeated three times. Both systems used facebows and sensors to locate the condylar axis points and capture movement trajectory data. Paired t-tests were used for normally distributed data, while the Wilcoxon rank-sum test was applied to non-normally distributed data. The level of significance was set at α = .05. RESULTS: The maximum condylar displacement in the sagittal plane during mandibular border movements and the sagittal condylar inclination (SCI) values on both the left and right sides showed no significant difference between the two systems (P > .05). The Bennett angle (BA) values on both the left and right sides measured by the JMA system were significantly higher than those measured by the CADIAX® 4 system (P < .05). The comfort levels of the JMA system were significantly higher than the CADIAX® 4 system (P < .05). CONCLUSION Through this study, it was found that the accuracy of the ultrasonic jaw tracking system was comparable with the conventional electronic system, except for the Bennett angle measurement. In terms of comfort and ease of use, the ultrasonic jaw tracking system is more favored.

Klebsiella pneumoniae,as a clinically prevalent opportunistic pathogen,ranks as the second most com-monly detected pathogen in clinical isolates in China.The extensive clinical use of carbapenem antibiotics has led to a high global detection rate of carbapenem-resistant K.pneumoniae(CRKP).Characterized by complex resist-ance mechanisms and diverse evolutionary pathways,CRKP infections pose significant challenges in prevention and treatment,with high associated mortality rates,creating substantial obstacles for clinical anti-infective therapy.In recent years,the emergence and global spread of carbapenem-resistant hypervirulent K.pneumoniae(CR-hvKP)have escalated into a major public health threat.Notably,hypervirulent K.pneumoniae isolates carry-ing carbapenem resistance genes are rapidly disseminating worldwide,causing fatal infections even in immunocom-petent individuals.This article systematically reviews the latest research advances on the resistance mechanisms,evolutionary pathways,adaptive changes,and clinical management strategies of CR-hvKP,aiming to deepen un-derstanding of this"superbug"and provide a theoretical foundation for clinical prevention and control.

Terminally ill patients face multiple difficulties in home care.Home-based palliative care ad-hering to the concept of whole-person,whole-family,whole-team,and whole-course care is able to meet the needs of terminally ill patients and their families.In this paper,we reported the care history and home-based pal-liative care process of a patient with end-stage breast tumor and summarized the experience,aiming to provide reference for the future work of home-based palliative care.

Objective:To conduct a Meta-analysis to estimate the national incidence rate of fall injuries among primary and middle school students in China in recent five years and to provide evidence for reducing fall injuries among primary and secondary school students.Methods:Publications between 2016 and 2021 were extracted from CNKI, VIP, Wanfang Databases, and PubMed. Observational studies consisting on the incidence rate of fall injuries were included. Stata 17.0 software was used for Meta-analysis. Subgroup analyses were undertaken by gender, type of school, urban/rural areas, and case definition. Sensitivity analysis and publication bias were performed.Results:Thirty papers were included for Meta-analysis, with a total sample size of 431 054. The combined incidence rate of fall injuries was 8.03% for injured persons and 9.61% for times of injuries. For injured persons, the incidence of fall injury was higher in boys (7.50%) than in girls (6.20%) and rural areas (8.12%) than in urban areas (3.94%). The incidence rate from studies using the injury definition of 1996 (9.42%) was higher than that of 2004 (7.56%), while there was no significant difference in rates between students from different types of schools. For times of injuries, the incidence of fall injury in boys (10.89%) was higher than that in girls (9.26%), in primary school students (10.06%) was higher than that in middle school students (6.53%), in rural areas (15.06%) was higher than that in urban areas (12.52%). The incidence rate from studies using the injury definition of 1996 (8.86%) was higher than that using the definition of 2004 (7.59%). The Meta-analysis results were slightly changed after the literature with the lowest score in literature quality evaluation, and monitoring data analysis were deleted through sensitivity analysis.Conclusion:There are differences in the incidence of fall injuries among Chinese primary and secondary school students of different genders and between urban/rural areas.
