Objective:
To understand the impact of social media usage on the human papilloma virus(HPV) vaccination willingness among college students in Xinjiang, so as to provide a theoretical basis for early prevention of HPVrelated diseases and preventive education.
Methods:
From March to April 2022, a total of 834 college students were selected from three universities including Xinjiang Agricultural University, Xinjiang Normal University and Xinjiang Medical University by stratified cluster random sampling method for online and offline surveys. The demographic characteristics, social media usage, risk perception, HPV vaccination willingness were obtained through questionnaires, and the Logistic regression analysis method was used to explore the role of HPV vaccine risk perception between social media use and HPV vaccination willingness of college students.
Results:
Associations were found between social media use (contact intensity, satisfaction, trust), risk perception (risk perception disorder, risk perception benefit) and HPV vaccination willingness among college students (r=0.37, 0.34, 0.35; 0.25, 0.31, P<0.05). Risk perception benefit had an intermediary effect between social media contact intensity, social media satisfaction, social media trust and HPV vaccination willingness, and the intermediary effects were 0.03 (95%CI=0. 01-0.06), 0.04(95%CI=0.02-0.07), 0.04(95%CI=0.01-0.06),and the proportions of intermediary effect were 18.00%, 26.35%, 23.00%, respectively.Risk perception disorder had an intermediary effect between social media satisfaction and HPV vaccination willingness [0.02 (95%CI=0.00-0.04)], and the intermediary effect accounts for 11.36%.
Conclusions
Risk perception benefit is the most important related factors of HPV vaccine willingness, which plays an intermediary effect between social media usage and the willingness to HPV vaccination. HPV publicity and education should be strengthened on social media platforms to promote HPVrelated knowledge and awareness of active prevention of HPV infection among college students.

With the continuous progress of research methodology in the real world and the growing maturity of artificial intelligence technology, a method for conducting “quantitative” research to guide clinical practice based on traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) diagnosis and treatment data was gradually developed. However, there is still a need for further improvements in the overall design of studies and the transformation of findings into clinical practice. Based on this, we put forward a comprehensive overall design concept and application approach for real-world study and artificial intelligence research based on clinical diagnosis and treatment data of TCM. This approach consists of five steps: Constructing a research-based database with a large sample size and high data quality; Mining and classification of core prescriptions; Conducting cohort studies to evaluate the effectiveness of core prescriptions; Utilizing case-control studies to clarify the dominant population; Establishing predictive models to achieve precision medicine. Additionally, it is imperative for researchers to establish a standardized system for collecting TCM variables and processing data, optimize the determination and measurement methods of confounding factors, further improve and promote methodologies, and strengthen the training of interdisciplinary talents. By following this research method, we anticipate that the clinical translation of research findings will be facilitated, leading to advancements in TCM precision medicine. Real-world study and artificial intelligence research share similar research foundations, and clinical applications complement each other. In the future, the two will merge together.

Objective:To investigate the expression of miRNA-34b (miR-34b) in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) tissues and its effect on proliferation and invasion of human NSCLC A549 cells in vitro.Methods:The specimens of cancer tissues and paracancerous normal epithelial tissues (more than 5 cm from the edge of the tumor) were collected from 40 NSCLC patients in Shanxi Province Cancer Hospital from June 2015 to March 2017. A549 cells were transfected with miR-34b mimics (experimental group) and irrelevant sequences (negative control group), respectively. The expression of miR-34b in tissues and each group of A549 cells was detected by reverse transcription real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR). The proliferation activity of A549 cells in the experimental group and the negative control group was detected by methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium (MTT) assay, and the invasion ability of A549 cells in the two groups was detected by Transwell assay.Results:The relative expression of miR-34b in NSCLC tissues was lower than that in paracancerous normal epithelial tissues (0.52±0.06 vs. 1.05±0.17), and the difference was statistically significant ( P < 0.001). The relative expression of miR-34b in A549 cells of the experimental group was higher than that in the negative control group, and the difference was statistically significant ( P < 0.05). MTT assay showed that the cell proliferation ability (absorbance value) of A549 cells in the experimental group was lower than that in the negative control group after cultured for 24 and 48 hours (both P < 0.01). Transwell assay showed that the number of invaded A549 cells in the experimental group was less than that in the negative control group [(49.53±5.03) cells vs. (121.00±12.06) cells, P < 0.01]. Conclusions:The expression of miR-34b is low in NSCLC tissues, and the up-regulation of miR-34b expression can inhibit the proliferation and invasion of NSCLC A549 cells.

Objective:To investigate the association of FAT atypical cadherin 1 (FAT1) with clinicopathological parameters and prognosis in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC).Methods:The retrospective cohort study was conducted. The clinicopathological data of 124 patients with ESCC who were admitted to Shanxi Cancer Hospital from January 2011 to December 2015 were collected. There were 85 males and 39 females, aged from 40 to 72 years, with a median age of 60 years. The ESCC tissues surgically removed and adjacent tissues specimens were collected to prepare tissue microarray for immunohistochemical staining. The 5 cases of ESCC tissues and adjacent tissues were analyzed by real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR). Observation indicators: (1) the expression of FAT1 protein in ESCC and adjacent tissues; (2) the expression of FAT1 RNA in ESCC and adjacent tissues; (3) the expression of FAT1 protein in ESCC tissues and its association with clinicopathological parameters; (4) follow-up and survival. Follow-up using outpatient examination and telephone interview was conducted to detect survival of patients up to February 13, 2019. The survival time was from surgical date to tumor-related death or endpoint of follow-up. Measurement data with normal distribution were represented as Mean± SD, and comparison between groups was analyzed using the t test. Measurement data with skewed distribution were represented as M (range). Count data were described as absolute numbers or percentages, and comparison between groups was analyzed using the chi-square test. Comparison of ordinal data was analyzed using the non parameter rank sum test. The Kaplan-Meier method was used to calculate survival time, and Log-rank test was used for survival analysis. Results:(1) The expression of FAT1 protein in ESCC and adjacent tissues: of 124 specimens, the 107 cases of ESCC tissues and 93 cases of adjacent tissues were finally obtained because of exfoliative tissues. There were 76 cases of ESCC tissues and corresponding adjacent tissues matched. Results of immuno-histochemical staining showed that FAT1 protein was expressed in both ESCC and adjacent tissues and was brown after staining. FAT1 was located in cytomembrane, with high expression of FAT1 as ≥75 and low expression as <75. The relative expression levels of FAT1 protein in ESCC and adjacent tissues were 68±42 and 77±37, showing a significant difference between ESCC and adjacent tissues ( t=2.380, P<0.05). (2) The expression of FAT1 RNA in ESCC and adjacent tissues: results of qRT-PCR showed that the relative expression levels of FAT1 RNA in 5 cases of ESCC and adjacent tissues were 1.6±0.4 and 2.5±0.3, with a significant difference between them ( t=3.560, P<0.05). (3) The expression of FAT1 protein in ESCC tissues and its association with clinicopathological parameters: of the 107 ESCC patients, 58 cases had high expression of FAT1. There were 42 and 16 cases with high expression of FAT1 in 65 non-drinking patients and 42 drinking patients, respectively, showing a significant difference between them ( χ2=7.229, P<0.05). (4) Follow-up and survival: 96 of 107 ESCC patients were followed up for 38.0?94.9 months, with a median follow-up time of 45.9 months. Survival analysis showed that the survival time of patients with high FAT1 expression was 24 months, versus 22 months of patients with low FAT1 expression, indicating no significant difference between them ( χ2=1.773, P>0.05). Results of subgroup analysis showed that the survival time was 24 months and 21 months of female patients with high and low FAT1 expression, 23 months and 22 months of non-smoking patients with high FAT1 expression and low FAT1 expression, 23 months and 21 months of non-drinking patients with high FAT1 expression and low FAT1 expression, respectively, showing significant differences between them ( χ2=8.769, 12.827, 10.724, P<0.05). Conclusions:The expression of FAT1 in ESCC tissues is low. Female, non-smoking and non-drinking ESCC patients with high FAT1 expression have good survival.

Burn rehabilitation in China started from compression therapy in the mid-1970s, which showed the dual effects of prevention and treatment of hypertrophic scars. It not only promoted functional rehabilitation but also strengthened the confidence of patients in rehabilitation treatment. Thereafter, more therapies were brought into practice, such as intra-scar injection of triamcinolone acetonide, application of plastic splints, hydrotherapy, exercises with equipment, skin care, local therapeutic massage, active and passive exercises, as well as external use of drugs for inhibiting scars and pigments. Since the beginning of the 21st century, rehabilitation therapies have been gradually increasing. Psychological rehabilitation, occupational therapy, external use of silicone gel, wax therapy and sound, light, electricity, and radiation therapy have been carried out. Many hospitals have established foundations and held summer camps for children. As far as the whole country is concerned, compared with the huge demand, we still face a number of problems such as shortage of working staff, limited working space, capital chain rupture, lack of multi-disciplinary cooperation, untimely treatment, and incomplete rehabilitation. Nowadays, with increasing knowledge of burn rehabilitation and number of practitioners, improvement of equipment and economic situation, the pace of rehabilitation has accelerated, and the overall implementation of burn rehabilitation therapy has shown great vitality. Patients with burn injury involving over 80% total burn surface area (TBSA) of total burn area or full-thickness burn over 60% TBSA were cured and recovered in different levels of hospitals nationwide, which not only reflects the superb level of burn treatment in China but also reflects the overall improvement of rehabilitation level of the country.

Objective To explore the effect of trans-theoretical-model-based home visiting on hip function in community patients after hip joint replacement. Methods We chose 65 patients after hip joint replacement from January 2015 to March 2016 in our hospital:32 patients on odd days were set as the control group, where routine home visiting was done and the other 33 on even days as the experimental group, where community visiting based on trans-theoretical model. The two groups were compared in terms of Harris hip score at discharge and 6 months after discharge. Result The Harris hip score in the intervention group was significantly higher than that in the control group 6 months after discharge (P<0.05) and the hip function of the intervention group was better than that of the control group. Conclusions Community home visiting based on theoretical model can improve the hip function of patients after hip joint replacement compared with conventional health education models. This intervention method is worthy of popularization and application in community health education.
