China is currently in an accelerated stage of population aging, and brain diseases pose a significant threat to the health of the elderly. " Preventing brain aging and maintaining brain health" has become a high-level goal of healthy aging. During the process of aging, the physiological and psychological states of elderly people change, making them prone to nervousness and exhaustion, which can disturb the brain spirit, damage the brain collaterals, and severely endanger brain health. Starting from the holistic view of cultivating both body and spirit in traditional Chinese medicine, based on the physical and mental characteristics of the elderly, this paper applies the concept and method of " relaxation and tranquility" in the protection of elderly brain health, focusing on maintaining relaxation and tranquility in both physical and mental aspects. Specific measures include emphasizing subjective consciousness, relaxing the heart and calming down; utilizing the daoyin method, relaxing the body and calming down, combining relaxation and tranquility, cultivating both body and spirit to prevent diseases and protect the brain, which enables the elderly to have a healthy mind and body, a sense of happiness and fulfillment, and to age gracefully. Simultaneously, advocating for tranquility is also called " respect" for relaxation, following nature to understand constant changes, and improving one′s ability to think positively in old age, in order to expand ideas for the protection of elderly brain health.

AIM: To analyze the clinical utility and value of the ultra-wide-field swept-source optical coherence tomography angiography(UWF-SS-OCTA)technique in changes of blood flow density and thickness in the central and peripheral regions of the retina and choroid in patients with nonproliferative diabetic retinopathy(NPDR)with or without diabetic kidney disease(DKD).METHODS: Cross-sectional study. Totally 50 cases(50 eyes)of diabetes mellitus(DM)that visited our hospital between June 2023 and June 2024 were included. They were divided into three groups: NPDR combined with DKD group(DKD group, n=20), NPDR without DKD group(NDKD group, n=20), and DM without retinopathy group(DM group, n=10, which served as control). In order to investigate the impact of DKD on ocular microangiopathy in NPDR patients, the retina and choroid within 24 mm×20 mm of the scan were separated into central and peripheral areas using the 3×3 nine-grid partition option that comes with UWF-SS-OCTA, and the parameters were then quantitatively assessed.RESULTS:The central and peripheral blood flow density of the choroidal capillary layer(CCP)was statistically significant between the DM group and the DKD group(t=3.93, P=0.0003; t=3.34, P=0.0016), and between the NDKD group and the DKD group(t=-3.06, P=0.003; t=-2.55, P=0.013), but there was no statistically significant difference between the DM group and the NDKD group(t=1.44, P=0.157; t=1.26, P=0.21). The mid-large choroidal vessel(MLCV)showed a progressive decline in central and peripheral blood flow density in the DM, NDKD, and DKD groups(F=13.74, 19.03, all P<0.0001). The DM, NDKD, and DKD groups saw a progressive decrease in central and peripheral choroidal thickness(CT; F=10.72, P=0.0001; F=13.12, P<0.001).CONCLUSION:CCP, MLCV, and CT can be used as visual indicators to identify impaired renal function in patients with NPDR. UWF-SS-OCTA can support the development of precise and noninvasive monitoring and treatment technology for diabetic ocular microangiopathy, while also offering a scientific foundation for the joint management of DR and DKD.

OBJECTIVE To systematically evaluate the efficacy and safety of different chemotherapy combination regimens for first-line treatment of metastatic colorectal cancer （mCRC）. METHODS PubMed， Cochrane Library， Embase and Web of Science were electronically searched to collect randomized controlled clinical trial （RCT） on first-line treatment for mCRC from January 1， 2000 to February 16， 2025. Two reviewers independently screened literature， extracted data and assessed the risk of bias of the included studies. Network meta-analysis was performed by using R4.4.3 and Stata 17.0 software. RESULTS A total of 28 RCTs， involving 16 intervention measures， were included. In terms of prolonging progression-free survival （PFS） and overall survival （OS）， FOLFOX （5-fluorouracil+oxaliplatin+calcium folinate regimen）+cetuximab had the highest probability of ranking first. In terms of improving objective response rate （ORR）， FOLFOXIRI （5-fluorouracil+oxaliplatin+irinotecan+calcium folinate regimen）+ bevacizumab and FOLFOX+bevacizumab+nivolumab had the highest probability of ranking first； in terms of the incidence of grade 3 or higher adverse reactions， FOLFOXIRI+panitumumab had the highest probability of ranking first； in subgroup analysis of KRAS wild-type patients， FOLFIRI （5-fluorouracil+irinotecan+calcium folinate regimen）+panitumumab and FOLFIRI+bevacizumab had the highest probability of ranking first in terms of prolonging PFS and OS， respectively； in terms of ORR， FOLFOXIRI+ cetuximab had the highest probability of ranking first. CONCLUSIONS In first-line treatment for mCRC， FOLFOX combined with targeted therapy has advantages in terms of efficacy and safety. However， individualized treatment strategies should be formulated based on the KRAS gene status and tumor location of patients.

Objective To investigate the clinicopathological characteristics of radioactive Iodine-refrac-tory differentiated thyroid cancer(RAIR-DTC)to provide a clinical evidence for early prediction of the thyroid cancer patients with radioactive Iodine-refractory(RAIR).Methods The data of 84 patients with undergoing thyroidectomy and 131I therapy in PLA 960 hospital from January 2010 to December 2019 were retrospectively analyzed.Thirty-nine patients with diagnosed RAIR-DTC served as the study group and 45 cases of radioactive iodine-avid differentiated thyroid cancer(RAIA-DTC)served as the control group.The clinicopathological characteristics were compared between the two groups.The logistic regression was used to analyze the inde-pendent risk factors of RAIR-DTC,and the RAIR-DTC prediction model was established.Results Compared with the RAIA-DTC group,the RAIR-DTC group had more iodine treatment times,the proportions of the pa-tients with age ≥55 years old,total iodine therapeutic dose,distant metastasis,TNM stage Ⅳ,high-risk sub-types and focal calcification were higher,the tumor maximum diameter was greater,the number of lymph node metastases was more and the probability of Ⅱ,Ⅰ+Ⅱ and non-central lymph node metastases was higher(P＞0.05).The progression-free survival rate had statistical difference between the two groups(P＜0.05).The total survival rate had no statistical difference between the two groups(P＞0.05).The binary logistic re-gression analysis results showed that the distant metastasis,high-risk histological subtype and maximum tumor diameter ≥10.5 mm were the independent risk factors for RAIR-DTC.The obtained fitting equation logit(P)=-2.259+3.330X1+2.287X2+1.606X3,the ROC curve was used to calculate the truncation val-ue of the fitted equation as-0.312 5,when logit(P)＞-0.312 5,it might develop into RAIR-DTC.Conclusion The clinicopathological characteristics of the patients with differentiated thyroid cancer could ef-fectively predict RAIR.

ObjectiveTo use the maternal morbidity WOICE Tool（Chinese version）to investigate the maternal morbidity in Shanghai， and to examine the current situation and associated factors of adverse symptoms and impaired functioning in the third trimester and postpartum period. MethodsPregnant women who made their initial visit and established a medical record at a tertiary obstetrics and gynecology hospital in Shanghai from March to August 2021 were recruited and a baseline survey was completed. The prevalence of maternal morbidity was surveyed in the third trimester and first 6 weeks postpartum. ResultsSelf-reported adverse physical symptoms were observed in 89.8% of women in the third trimester and 86.1% in first 6 weeks postpartum. The prevalence rates of anxiety and depression were 4.1% and 6.2% in the third trimester， and 6.2% and 7.5% in first 6 weeks postpartum， respectively. The proportions of women reporting impaired functioning were 80.3% in the third trimester and 64.1% in first 6 weeks postpartum， respectively. Physical symptoms were associated with parity， education， the newborn’s health status， and risk of experiencing violence. Psychological symptoms were associated with age， household responsibilities， employment status， the newborn’s health status， pre-pregnancy body mass index （BMI）， and risk of experiencing violence. Functionality was associated with the type of registered residence， education level， household responsibilities， and risk of experiencing violence. ConclusionThe physical health status of pregnant and postpartum women in Shanghai is better than that in the middle-income regions abroad， with anxiety and depression at average levels compared to national statistics in China. Physical， psychological， and functional status are affected by multiple factors including personal， health， family， and work conditions. Preventive measures should be taken from various perspectives to mitigate adverse symptoms and impaired functioning， and to improve the positive experience of pregnancy and childbirth.

Nuclear factor kappa-B(NF-κB), an intricate nuclear transcription factor, is ubiquitously present within the myriad tissues and cells of the human corpus, engaging in a multiplicity of biological processes such as the development of the immune system, immune responses, inflammatory reactions, angiogenesis, and tumorigenesis. Its cardinal role in the pathogenesis of ocular diseases is increasingly illuminated by its prevalence. Owing to the unique architecture of the ocular globe, burgeoning studies have identified the excessive activation or dysregulation of the NF-κB signaling pathway as intimately associated with the progression of a multitude of ocular conditions, including, but not limited to, cataracts, dry eye syndrome, and glaucoma. The modulation of NF-κB activation, by targeting it, offers a potent mechanism for regulating ocular inflammation and mitigating disease progression, holding promise as a potential therapeutic strategy for ophthalmic disorders. An in-depth examination of the NF-κB signaling pathway's role in ocular diseases not only enriches our comprehension of the underlying mechanisms of these ailments, but also lays a crucial foundation for the innovation of new treatment modalities. Therefore, this article endeavors to provide a compendious review of the regulatory effects exerted by the NF-κB signaling pathway in ophthalmic conditions throughout recent years.

Objective To investigate the application value of spectral computed tomography venography(CTV)in the display and staging of deep venous thrombosis(DVT)in the lower extremity.Methods Eighty-two patients with CTV were selected and ran-domly divided into group A(42 patients)and group B(40 patients).Group A:tube voltage 120 kVp.Group B:gemstone spectral ima-ging(GSI)mode,reconstruction of 50 keV and iodine(water)maps.The CT and standard deviation(SD)values of the veins were measured,signal-to-noise ratio(SNR)and contrast-to-noise ratio(CNR)were calculated in 120 kVp images of group A and in 50 keV images of group B.Two observers scored the image quality of the 2 groups subjectively,and Kappa test was used to examine the con-sistency.Based on the duration from the occurrence of clinical symptoms,the DVTs were classified.The CT values and iodine con-centration(IC)of DVT were measured in the 120 kVp images of group A and in the iodine(water)maps of group B,respectively.The receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve was drawn to compare the effectiveness of CT values and IC in diagnosing DVT staging.Results CT values,SNR,and CNR of veins in group B were higher than those in group A(P<0.05).The subjective scores of the two groups were consistent(Kappa=0.926-0.955,P<0.05).The score for the display of veins and thrombus clarity in group B was 5(4,5),which was better than the score of 4(3,4)in group A(P<0.05).The efficiency of IC in diagnosing DVT staging[area under the curve(AUC)=0.973]was better than that of CT values(AUC=0.891).Conclusion The spectral CTV can improve the contrast of lower extremity deep veins and the clarity of thrombus,and can provide more objective indicators for the diagnosis of thrombus staging,which is conducive to accurate clinical diagnosis and treatment.
