ObjectiveTo analyze the application trends and research hotspots of neurological rehabilitation over the past decade. MethodsRelevant literatures on neurological rehabilitation published between January, 2015 and December, 2024 were retrieved from the Web of Science Core Collection database. Citespace 6.3.R1 was used for visualization analysis. ResultsA total of 8 727 articles were included, among which 1 117 were from China, with an overall upward trend in annual publication volume in both contexts. The United States was the most productive country, and Harvard University was the most prolific institution. The top three high-frequency keywords globally were spinal cord injury, neurological rehabilitation and virtual reality, whereas the top three high-frequency keywords in China were spinal cord injury, ischemic stroke and brain-computer interface. In recent years, bursting keywords in global included functional neurological disorder, artificial intelligence and deep learning, while bursting keywords in China were neurological function and machine learning. ConclusionOver the past ten years, the volume of global and Chinese researches on neurological rehabilitation has continued to increase. Neurological disorders such as stroke, spinal cord injury, traumatic brain injury and neurodegenerative diseases are the hotspots in this field. The application of emerging technologies, including artificial intelligence, virtual reality, and brain-computer interfaces, is driving the advancement of neurological rehabilitation.

Disruption of the intestinal mucosal barrier caused by gut dysbiosis and metabolic imbalance is the underlying pathology of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Traditional Chinese medicine Wuji Wan (WJW) is commonly used to treat digestive system disorders and showed therapeutic potential for IBD. In this interdisciplinary study, we aim to investigate the pharmacological effects of WJW against experimental colitis by combining functional metabolomics and gut-microbiota sequencing techniques. Treatment with WJW altered the profile of the intestinal microbiota and notably increased the abundance of Lactobacillus, thereby facilitating the conversion of tryptophan into indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) and indoleacrylic acid (IA). These indole derivatives activated the aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR) pathway, which reduced colonic inflammation and restored the expression of intestinal barrier proteins. Interestingly, the beneficial effects of WJW on gut barrier function improvement and tryptophan metabolism were disappeared in the absence of gut microbiota. Finally, pre-treatment with the AhR antagonist CH-223191 confirmed the essential role of IAA-mediated AhR activation in the therapeutic effects of WJW. Overall, WJW enhanced intestinal barrier function and reduced colonic inflammation in a murine colitis model by modulating Lactobacillus-IAA-AhR signaling pathway. This study provides novel insights into colitis pathogenesis and presents an effective therapeutic and preventive approach against IBD.

Objective To investigate the effectiveness and safety of volumetric modulated arc therapy (VMAT) hypofractionated radiotherapy and intensity modulated conformal radiotherapy technique (IMRT) conventional fractionated radiotherapy after breast cancer radical operation.Methods Eighty-five patients with breast cancer modified radical operation admitted and treated in this hospital from March 1,2021 to De-cember 30,2021 were selected as the research subjects and divided into the VMAT group (n=41) and the IM-RT group (n=42) according to the random number table method.The VMAT group adopted the hypofrac-tionated radiotherapy,with the single fractionated dose of 2.9 Gy/frequency and radiotherapeutic total dose of 43.5 Gy/15 frequencies;the IMRT group adopted the IMRT conventional fractionated radiotherapy,with the single fractionated dose of 2.0 Gy/frequency and radiotherapeutic total dose of 50.0 Gy/25 frequencies.The planning target region V95,V110,conformity index,homogeneity index,treatment time,V5,V20,V30,average dose (Dmean) in the affected side lung,humeral head Dmean and heart V30,Dmean were compared between the two groups.Meanwhile,local recurrence,distant metastasis,disease-free survival and acute and chronic radiation injury were compared between the two groups.Results Compared with the IMRT group,V95 in the VMAT was higher,V110 and homogeneity index were lower,the treatment time was shorter,V5 in the affected lung,Dmean and Dmean in the affected humeral head were lower,V30 in the affected lung was higher,heart V30 in the left side breast cancer was lower,heart Dmean in the right side breast cancer was lower,and the differences were statistically significant (P<0.05).All patients survived without local relapse.The distant metastasis rate and disease free survival rate had no statistical difference between the two groups (P>0.05).Follow up lasted for 12 months,the incidence rates of grade Ⅰ-Ⅱ acute radiodermatitis,radiation esophagitis,chronic radioder-matitis and radiation pneumonia had no statistical differences between the two groups (P>0.05).The inci-dence rate of grade Ⅰ-Ⅱ shoulder dysfunction in the VMAT group was lower than that in the IMRT group with statistical difference (P<0.05).No grade Ⅱ and above acute and chronic radiation injury in the two groups occurred.Conclusion VMAT hypofractionated radiotherapy after breast cancer radical operation is safe and effective.

Objectives:To assess the prognostic impact of the neoadjuvant rectal (NAR) score following neoadjuvant short-course radiotherapy and consolidation chemotherapy in locally advanced rectal cancer (LARC), as well as its value in guiding decisions for adjuvant chemotherapy.Methods:Between August 2015 and August 2018, patients were eligible from the STELLAR phase III trial (NCT02533271) who received short-course radiotherapy plus consolidation chemotherapy and for whom the NAR score could be calculated. Based on the NAR score, patients were categorized into low (＜8), intermediate (8-16), and high (＞16) groups. The Kaplan-Meier method, log rank tests, and multivariate Cox proportional hazard regression models were used to evaluate the impact of the NAR score on disease-free survival (DFS).Results:Out of the 232 patients, 24.1%, 48.7%, and 27.2% had low (56 cases), intermediate (113 cases), and high NAR scores (63 cases), respectively. The median follow-up period was 37 months, with 3-year DFS rates of 87.3%, 68.3%, and 53.4% ( P＜0.001) for the low, intermediate, and high NAR score groups. Multivariate analysis demonstrated that the NAR score (intermediate NAR score: HR, 3.10, 95% CI, 1.30-7.37, P=0.011; high NAR scores: HR=5.44, 95% CI, 2.26-13.09, P＜0.001), resection status ( HR, 3.00, 95% CI, 1.64-5.52, P＜0.001), and adjuvant chemotherapy ( HR, 3.25, 95% CI, 2.01-5.27, P＜0.001) were independent prognostic factors for DFS. In patients with R0 resection, the 3-year DFS rates were 97.8% and 78.0% for those with low and intermediate NAR scores who received adjuvant chemotherapy, significantly higher than the 43.2% and 50.6% for those who did not ( P＜0.001, P=0.002). There was no significant difference in the 3-year DFS rate (54.2% vs 53.3%, P=0.214) among high NAR score patients, regardless of adjuvant chemotherapy. Conclusions:The NAR score is a robust prognostic indicator in LARC following neoadjuvant short-course radiotherapy and consolidation chemotherapy, with potential implications for subsequent decisions regarding adjuvant chemotherapy. These findings warrant further validation in studies with larger sample sizes.

Objectives:To analyze the long-term prognosis of patients with locally advanced gastric cancer in the stage of ypT0~2N0M0 after neoadjuvant chemotherapy.Methods:The clinical data of 78 patients with locally advanced gastric cancer who underwent neoadjuvant chemotherapy and radical resection at ypT0~2N0M0 stage from January 2012 to December 2019 in the Department of Abdominal Surgery/Pancreatic and Gastric Surgery of the Cancer Hospital of Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences were retrospectively analyzed. Kaplan-Meier method was used to calculate the overall survival and disease-free survival, and the survival difference between patients with postoperative ypT0N0M0 and ypT1~2N0M0 was compared. Multivariate Cox proportional hazards regression analysis was performed on clinical, pathologic and treatment measures that may affect survival.Results:Among the 78 patients, there were 18 cases (23.1%) with ypT0N0M0, 14 cases (17.9%) with ypT1aN0M0, 17 cases (21.8%) with ypT1bN0M0, and 29 cases (37.2%) with ypT2N0M0. Median follow-up time was 74.1 (19.8~132.5) months. Fourteen patients (17.9%) had tumor recurrence and metastasis, and 9 patients died from tumor recurrence and metastasis. The 5-year disease-free survival and overall survival rates were 84.4% and 87.8%, respectively. There was no statistically significant difference in 5-year overall survival (86.9% vs 87.8%) or 5-year disease-free survival (88.9% vs 83.2%) between patients with ypT0N0M0 and ypT1~2N0M0. Analysis of factors that may affect prognosis revealed that signet ring cell carcinoma, nerve invasion, and lymph node dissection of fewer than 16 were significantly associated with prognosis ( P＜0.05). Multivariate Cox analysis including these three factors showed that only lymph node dissection of fewer than 16 was an independent risk factor affecting prognosis (OS: HR=10.44 ,95% CI: 2.15-50.72, P=0.004; DFS: HR=11.47, 95% CI: 2.85-46.20, P=0.001). Conclusions:The long-term prognosis of patients with locally advanced gastric cancer at ypT0~2N0M0 stage after neoadjuvant chemotherapy is relatively good, and the long-term survival time of patients with ypT1~2N0M0 and ypT0N0M0 is similar. Lymph node dissection of less than 16 nodes may be an independent risk factor affecting prognosis. During surgery, efforts should be made to increase the number of lymph node dissections. For patients with less than 16 nodes dissected, postoperative treatment and follow-up should be strengthened.

Objective To investigate the characteristics of human papillomavirus (HPV) prevalence and genotype distribution of 18 535 cases in Yuncheng . Methods A sample of 18535 residents who underwent HPV testing in our hospital from August 2020 to September 2023 were enrolled, and HPV genotyping was done to all samples. Then the rate of HPV infection, age distribution, genotype distribution, and multiple infections were statistically analyzed. Results Of the 18,535 subjects included, a total of 4,639 tested positive for HPV, demonstrating a positive rate of 25.03%. The positive rate of HPV infection varied among different age groups (χ²=29.587, P<0.05), with higher rates found in <25 years old group (29.61%) and >60 years old group (25.89%). Overall, 23 genotypes, covering 5315 viruses, were detected. There were 5 low-risk genotypes with the highest percentage of HPV42 (9.29%), and there were 18 high-risk genotypes with HPV52, HPV58, HPV66 and HPV53, subtypes as the most frequent subtypes, accounting for 13.64%, 8.97%, 7.41% and 7.04%, respectively. The type of HPV infection was predominantly single infections, with an overall single infection rate of 21.62% (4008/18535), which accounted for 86.40% (4 008/4 639) of all positive cases, and a multiple genotype infections rate of 3.40% (631/18535). The 25-34 year old group accounted for the largest proportion of single infections (25.12%), while the <25 year old group accounted for the largest proportion of multiple genotype infections (30.74%). Conclusion The prevalence rate of HPV infection in Yuncheng is 25.03%, with a higher positive rate in the <25 years age group and the >60 years age group. A total of 23 HPV genotypes are detected, of which the main genotypes are HPV42, HPV58, HPV66 and HPV53, and the type of infection is dominated by single infections.

Objective:To explore the effect of humanistic care combined with Morita therapy on anxiety state of hemodialysis patients.Methods:A self-controlled study was conducted on 54 patients with end-stage renal disease and anxiety who received maintenance hemodialysis in China-Japan Friendship Hospital from August 2020 to August 2022. All patients were treated with humanistic care nursing and Morita therapy for one month. The Self Rating Anxiety Scale (SAS) scores of the patients before and after the intervention were compaired. The comparison of quantitative data was conducted by paired t-test, and the comparison of qualitative data was conducted by χ2 test. The correlation between different factors and anxiety was analyzed by Spearman correlation analysis. Results:Among the 54 patients, there were 26 males and 28 females, aged (61.8±16.3) years (ranging from 29 to 88 years). The SAS score after the intervention (44.0±11.1) was lower than that before the intervention (51.9±8.5) ( t=5.395, P<0.001). The anxiety of patients was related to their age ( r=0.305), employment status ( r=0.270) and marital status ( r=0.397) (all P<0.05). The satisfaction of patients with care measures and nursing before and after the intervention was 45.6% and 87.7%, respectively ( χ2=5.720, P<0.05). Conclusion:After receiving combined humanistic care nursing and Morita therapy, patients in a state of anxiety could experience significant psychological improvement, which is conducive to the successful completion of hemodialysis treatment and enhances the quality of life for patients.

Objective:To develop the Nutrition Impact Symptom Scale for Colorectal Cancer Patients.Methods:Guided by the theory of unpleasant symptoms, the initial draft of the scale was formed through literature research, expert consultation, and small sample pre-survey. From March to May 2023, convenience sampling was used to select 127 colorectal cancer patients who visited Jiangsu Cancer Hospital as the research subject for item analysis and reliability and validity testing of the scale.Results:The final scale consisted of five dimensions and a total of 17 items. The content validity index of the scale was from 0.83 to 1.00, with an average content validity index of 0.97.
