		                        			The ethical review of clinical research involving mental disorders in the ethical governance of scientific and technological has obvious particularities, especially in the field of artificial intelligence and brain-computer interfaces which are reflected in the impact on mental autonomy, the impaired informed consent ability of participants with severe mental disorders in research, and other aspects. In addition, the stigma of illness, the use of placebo, and psychological assessment methods in clinical research have also drawn attention to the ethical review of psychiatry. In 2020, the Beijing Municipal Health Commission issued the Guidelines for Ethical Review of Clinical Research Involving Mental Disorders (Guidelines). Shen Yucun’s Psychiatry, compiled in 2023, revised the application of the Guidelines in the context of ethical governance. An analysis was conducted on the purpose and significance of its issuance and revision, its scope of application, the principal responsibility of ethical review in medical and health institutions, and the key content of ethical review in psychiatry, to improve the quality of ethical review in clinical research involving mental disorders and promote the standardized development of clinical research in psychiatry.

		                        			Objective:This study aimed to explore the status of radiological Kashin-Beck disease (KBD) among school-aged children in Chamdo City, Tibet, through a 3-year monitoring survey, providing epidemiological evidence for prevention and control strategies.Methods:The target areas for this study were Luolong, Bianba, and Basu counties in Chamdo City, Tibet Autonomous Region, identified as having the most severe historical cases of KBD. Children aged 7-12 years attending school were enrolled as study subjects. Anteroposterior X-ray films of the right-hand were taken, and radiological diagnoses were made based on the "Diagnosis of Kashin-Beck Disease" criteria (WS/T 207-2010). Two experienced researchers independently reviewed the X-rays, and intra- and inter-group consistency were assessed using weighted Kappa values and percentage agreement. Cross-sectional surveys were conducted in 2017 and 2020 to describe the X-ray detection rates of KBD, and logistic regression analysis was employed to construct a predictive model of risk factors for radiological KBD cases.Results:In 2017, a total of 5,711 children aged 7-12 years in Chamdo City, Tibet, participated in the baseline cross-sectional survey (average age 9.2 years, 48.0% female), with 28 cases of radiological KBD. The age- and gender-standardized prevalence rate was 0.527%. In 2020, 6,771 participants (average age 9.3 years, 49.5% female) underwent a second cross-sectional survey, with 9 cases of radiological KBD and a standardized prevalence rate of 0.134%. Logistic regression analysis indicated that older age [ OR=2.439, 95% CI(1.299, 4.580), P=0.006] and female gender [ OR=8.157, 95% CI(1.016, 65.528), P=0.048] were independent risk factors for radiological KBD cases. Conversely, higher residential altitude, under the premise of Tibet's high altitude, was a protective factor [ OR=0.995, 95% CI(0.990, 0.999), P=0.032). Conclusion:The radiographically positive detection rate of KBD among school-aged children in Chamdo City, Tibet Autonomous Region, is at an extremely low level and showing a declining trend, reaching the historical standard in 2020. Considering the absence of positive signs in affected children, it suggests that local KBD has been effectively eliminated.

Methods A total of 105 schizophrenic patients were selected as subjects and randomly divided into 1 Hz treatment group, 10 Hz treatment group and control group, with 35 patients in each group. All three groups received rTMS treatment for 12 weeks. The Abnormal Involuntary Movement Scale (AIMS), Scale for the Assessment of Negative Symptoms (SANS), Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale (PANSS) and Treatment Emergent Symptom Scale (TESS) scores were compared among the three groups. Physiological indicators such as electrocardiogram, blood routine, blood biochemistry and hormone levels were monitored. Results After treatment, the total AIMS scores in the 1 Hz and 10 Hz treatment groups were significantly lower than before treatment, and those in the 1 Hz and 10 Hz treatment groups were significantly lower than those in the control group (

Operation time, intraoperative blood loss and fusion stage were recorded. Intraoperative O-arm scanning and postoperative CT scanning were performed to evaluate the accuracy of nail placement. The cervicothoracic scoliosis Cobb angle, compensatory scoliosis Cobb angle, local kyphosis Cobb angle, torticollis angle, T 1 tilt angle and clavicular angle were measured before operation, model design, 1 week after operation and at the last follow-up to evaluate the effect of surgical design, intraoperative orthosis and the correction loss at follow-up. The Society for Scoliosis Research-22 (SRS-22) questionnaire was used to evaluate the functional and treatment effect. At the last follow-up, the osteotomy fusion was evaluated by Eck criterion. Results:All patients successfully completed the operation, the operation time was 228.5±41.8 min, the intraoperative blood loss was 355.6±46.7 ml, and the number of fusion segments was 5.5±0.8. Follow-up duration was 35.5±13.2 months. A total of 140 pedicle screws were inserted, with an accuracy of 97.1% (136/140). The Cobb angle of cervicothoracic scoliosis was 53.9°±17.9° preoperatively, 11.3°±4.4° in the model design, 10.8°±2.6° one week postoperatively, and 14.5°±3.5° at the last follow-up, with statistical significance ( P<0.001). The preoperative and postoperative one week difference was statistically significant ( P<0.001) with a correction rate of 78.6%±6.7%. The Cobb angle of compensatory scoliosis was 33.1°±12.1° before surgery, 11.9°±2.4° for model design, 10.5°±3.4° for one week after surgery, and 14.1°±2.5° for the last follow-up, with statistically significant differences ( P<0.001). The postoperative correction rate was 65.2%±16.2%. The Cobb angle of local kyphosis was 27.8°±9.8° preoperatively, 10.1°±2.1° in the model design, 9.8°±1.9° one week postoperatively, and 12.7°±1.6° at the last follow-up, with statistical significance ( P<0.001). The preoperative and postoperative one week difference was statistically significant ( P<0.001) with a correction rate of 59.2%±18.9%. The preoperative and postoperative one week difference was statistically significant ( P<0.001) with a correction rate of 78.6%±6.7%. The neck tilt angle was 20.6°±6.7° preoperatively, 6.2°±1.9° in the model design, 5.9°±2.1° one week postoperatively, and 7.1°±1.4° at the last follow-up, with statistical significance ( P<0.001). The preoperative and postoperative one week difference was statistically significant ( P<0.001) with a correction rate of 70.0%±11.1%. The T 1 inclination angle was 20.2°±5.8° preoperatively, 11.5°±3.1° in the model design, 10.2°±2.3° one week postoperatively, and 9.5°±3.0° at the last follow-up, with statistical significance ( P<0.001). The preoperative and postoperative one week difference was statistically significant ( P<0.001) with a correction rate of 53.2%±10.4%. There was no significant difference between preoperative design and actual measurement one week after surgery ( P>0.05). At the last follow-up, the scores of self-image (4.6±0.7), mental health (4.7±0.6) and treatment satisfaction (4.6±0.6)in SRS-22 scale were significantly improved compared with those before operation ( P<0.05). The symptoms of hemivertebra ipilateral C 8 nerve root injury occurred in 1 patient, who was treated conservatively with dehydration, hormones and nutraceutical drugs, and recovered to normal at 3 months follow-up. At the last follow-up, the appearance of the head, neck and shoulders of the patients was improved compared with that before surgery, the bone grafts have achieved osseous fusion in all patients. All fusion were grade I by Eck criterion. No complications such as serious neurological or vascular injury occurred during perioperative period. No pseudoarthrosis formation, internal fixation loosening or fracture occurred during follow-up. Conclusion:The application of 3D printing combined with O-arm navigation assistance technology in posterior hemivertebra resection and correctional surgery for cervicothoracic hemivertebra deformities can display the deformities in advance, stereoscopic and real-time, accurately place pedicle screws and complete hemivertebra resection, improve surgical safety and deformity correction rate.

		                        			Objective:To assess the changes of selenium nutrition of school-age children in Kashin-Beck disease (KBD) areas of Linzhou County, Lhasa City and Xietongmen County, Shigatse City in Tibet Autonomous Region (referred to as Tibet), and provide a scientific basis for evaluating the effectiveness of prevention and control measures.Methods:According to the historical condition of KBD, a total of 344 children's hair samples were collected to determine the content of selenium in Kazi (KBD area) and Jiangxia townships (non-KBD area) of Linzhou County in 2013 and 2021, Renqinze (KBD area) and Tongmen townships (non-KBD area) of Xietongmen County in 2015 and 2021.Results:Compared to 2013/2015, in 2021, the hair selenium level of children in the four townships increased ( P < 0.001). The selenium nutritional level of more than 90% of the children reached medium or above (hair selenium > 0.25 μg/g) in 2021. The hair selenium levels of girls in the two KBD areas (Kazi and Renqinze townships) were lower than those of boys ( Z = - 2.83, - 2.83, P < 0.05). Conclusions:The selenium nutrition level of school-age children in KBD areas in Linzhou and Xietongmen counties has increased rapidly in recent years. However, the selenium nutrition level of girls is significantly lower than that of boys. It is necessary to strengthen prevention, controlling and monitoring, and to further improve the dietary structure of school-age children through the joint efforts of families and schools, to increase the proportion of exogenous high selenium food intake.

		                        			Objective:To investigate the clinical efficacy of satellite rod revision surgery via a combined anterior and posterior approach for rod fracture after posterior vertebral column resection (PVCR) in patients with severe thoracolumbar kyphosis.Methods:A retrospective case series study was conducted on the clinical data of 11 patients with rod fracture after PVCR for severe thoracolumbar kyphosis, who were treated in Henan Provincial People′s Hospital from January 2013 to January 2021. There were 6 males and 5 females, with the age range of 21-62 years [(35.4±13.0)years]. Among them, 4 patients had traumatic kyphosis, 4 presented congenital kyphosis and 3 showed tuberculous kyphosis. All the patients had obvious low back pain. According to the American Spinal Injury Association (ASIA) score, 2 patients were found with grade C, 2 with grade D and 7 with grade E. All the patients underwent revision surgery for internal fixation using satellite rod via a combined anterior and posterior approach. The operation time, intraoperative blood loss and postoperative hospital stay were recorded. The imaging parameters such as kyphosis Cobb angle, scoliosis Cobb angle, distance between C 7 plumb line and central sacral vertical line (C 7-CSVL), and distance between C 7 plumb line and sagittal vertical axis (SVA) were measured preoperatively, at 1 week postoperatively and at latest follow-up. At the same time, the visual analogue scale (VAS), Oswestry dysfunction index (ODI), and simplified Chinese version of the scoliosis research society-22 (SRS-22) questionnaire were used to evaluate the clinical efficacy. At the latest follow-up, the osteotomy fusion was evaluated by Suk criterion and ASIA score was used to evaluate the recovery of neurological function. The complications were also recorded for the patients. Results:All the patients were followed up for 24-84 months [(47.5±16.2)months]. The operation time was 100-220 minutes [(149.4±37.6)minutes], with the intraoperative blood loss of 150-350 ml [(246.3±64.6)ml] and the postoperative hospital stay of 5-8 days [(6.1±1.1)days]. The kyphosis Cobb angles [(18.5±3.2)° and (19.3±2.9)°] and the scoliosis Cobb angles [(11.8±2.2)°, (11.1±2.2)°] at 1 week post-operation and at the latest follow-up were all improved significantly compared with the preoperative ones [(60.4±6.3)°, (21.7±5.5)°] (all P<0.01), with the average correction rates being 69.4% and 45.6%, respectively, with no significant differences between 1 week post-operation and latest follow-up (all P>0.05). The C 7-CSVL was reduced from preoperative (21.2±4.3)mm to (15.7±2.4)mm at 1 week post-operation, and to (15.9±2.2)mm at the latest follow-up (all P<0.01). The SVA was improved from preoperative (51.0±6.8)mm to (16.6±3.6)mm at 1 week post-operation, and to (15.3±3.9)mm at the latest follow-up (all P<0.01). There were no significant differences in C 7-CSVL or SVA at 1 week post-operation or at the latest follow-up (all P>0.05). The VAS [(2.5±0.9)points, (1.9±0.9)points], ODI (20.1±5.4, 18.4±5.2) and SRS-22 [(83.4±5.8)points, (85.0±4.1)points] at 1 week post-operation and at the latest follow-up were significantly improved compared with the preoperative ones [(6.0±1.4)points, 57.2±8.7, (62.0±9.1)points] (all P<0.01), but no significant differences were found between 1 week post-operation and latest follow-up (all P>0.05). At the latest follow-up, the bone grafts achieved osseous fusion in all the patients, and the ASIA grade was improved from grade C to grade D in 2 patients and from grade D to grade E in 2 patients. No complications such as serious neurological or vascular injury occurred during perioperative period. No pseudoarthrosis formation, internal fixation loosening or fracture occurred during follow-up. Conclusion:Satellite rod revision surgery via a combined anterior and posterior approach for rod fracture after PVCR in patients with severe thoracolumbar kyphosis has the advantages of less trauma and faster convalescence, excellent results of deformity correction, significant pain relief, functional improvement, and fewer complications.
