BACKGROUND:In recent years,High-definition transcranial direct current stimulation(HD-tDCS)has garnered significant attention due to its potential non-invasive modulation of brain function.However,there is still a lack of visual analysis in the literature regarding this technique. OBJECTIVE:To perform a visual analysis of HD-tDCS-related research so as to explore the current status and trends in this field. METHODS:English literature related to HD-tDCS was retrieved from the Web of Science Core Collection database covering the period from January 1,2010 to May 6,2023.The VOSviewer software was used to visualize and analyze the source journals,countries/regions,authors,institutions,cited references,and keywords of the included literature,creating a knowledge map to uncover the research landscape and hotspots. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:A total of 336 articles were included,showing a consistent increase in the annual publication count of HD-tDCS research.Among these,the United States contributed the highest number of publications(141 articles)with 4 221 citations,followed by China with 70 articles and 401 citations.Brain Stimulation was the most prolific journal(28 articles),Marom Bikson was the most productive author(37 articles),and The City College of New York was the most active institution(35 articles).The most frequently mentioned keywords in the field included motor cortex,regulation,working memory,excitability,and dorsolateral prefrontal cortex.Notable recent keywords in the last 5 years include attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder,brain networks,and stimulation intensity.Currently,the volume of HD-tDCS research is relatively limited,but is on an upward trajectory,indicating substantial research potential.It is expected that future studies in this domain will continue to focus on the application of HD-tDCS in cognitive and neuropsychiatric disorders,while also exploring its therapeutic mechanisms targeting the motor cortex and dorsolateral prefrontal cortex based on brain network analysis.

Chemotherapy is one of the main treatments for gastric cancer, but its drug resistance often limits the effectiveness of chemotherapy, leading to treatment failure. Drug resistance can be divided into primary drug resistance and secondary resistance. It has showed that several factors were involved in the multidrug resistance of gastric cancer, including the expression of drug resistance-related proteins, abnormalities of apoptosis-related genes, dysfunction of DNA damage repair, epithelial-mesenchymal transition and non-coding RNA. The solution to improve the efficacy of chemotherapy is to overcome drug resistance or delay drug resistance. This article will explore the progress in multi-drug resistance of gastric cancer.

OBJECTIVETo explore the association between socioeconomic status (SES) and blood pressure control in diagnosed hypertension patients.
METHODSThe database of Zhejiang provincial survey on metabolic syndrome which implemented in 2010 in which prior hypoertensive patients were brought into this sutdy. Descriptive statistics were applied to test the distributive differences of relevant factors (age, sex, marital status, hypertension duration, BMI, education level, per capita household yearly income, smoking, alcohol drinking, fruit and vegetable intake) between patients with optimally-controlled blood pressure and those without. The SES of diagnosed hypertension patients was measured separately by two common indicators: education level and the per capita household yearly income. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression models were used to differentiate the association between those two SES indicators and blood pressure control, and the trend of the association was also tested.
RESULTSTotally, 2 394 hypertension patients were diagnosed and identified. Of the patients analysed, the overall mean was (61.53 ± 10.64) years, and 55.7% (1 334 cases) had ≤ 5 years' disease duration. 1 090 achieved optimal blood pressure control, which accounted for a proportion of 45.5%. 1 676 had elementary school education and below, accounting for 70.1%. The patients with per capita household yearly income of < 5 000 Yuan and 5 000-14 999 Yuan groups were 401 (29.4%) and 690 (50.5%) respectively. 416 (17.4%) were smokers and 541 (22.6%) were alcohol drinkers. Based on the statistical tests, we found that the distributions of age, marital status, hypertension duration, body mass index, smoking and alcohol drinking were different between two groups (t or χ² values were 4.57, 5.44, 6.40, 6.21, 5.99, 3.98, respectively, all P values were < 0.05). Optical blood pressure control in higer education level group was significantly better than that of in lower education level (χ² = 12.65, P < 0.001), and there was no statistical significance association between per capita household yearly income and optimal blood pressure control (χ² = 2.78, P = 0.249). Multivariate logistic regression models revealed that, of those two SES indicators, a positive association was shown between education level and optimal blood pressure control: compared with patients in the category of 'elementary school and below, those of 'junior high school and above observed an OR of 1.40 (95% CI: 1.09-1.81). And in further trend χ² test, we identified a trend of such association (χ² trend = 12.74, P = 0.002). However, no significant association has been recognized between per capita household yearly income and optimal blood pressure control: compared with patients in the category of < 5 000 Yuan group, those of 5 000-14 999 Yuan and ≥ 15 000 Yuan groups had OR of 0.93 (95% CI: 0.72-1.20) and 1.04 (95% CI: 0.83-1.31) respectively.
CONCLUSIONAmong all diagnosed hypertension patients, those with lower education level have poorer blood pressure control and should be labelled as the key population for intense health education and standardized management to improve their blood pressure control status.

Objective To evaluate the utility of waist-to-height ratio ( WHtR ) in predicting metabolic syndrome ( MS) among non-overweight Chinese adults, and to investigate the difference by age and sex. Methods Based on a population-based cross-sectional survey on MS in Zhejiang province in 2010, data of 10 792 non-overweight (body mass index<24. 0 kg/m2 ) adults aged 18 years and older were analyzed by using the receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve analysis and multiple logistic regression. Results The area under ROC curve (AUC) values of WHtR in MS prediction were 0. 765(95%CI 0. 740-0. 789) and 0. 786(95%CI 0. 765-0. 807), and odds ratios(OR) of WHtR for MS were 1. 23(95%CI 1. 20-1. 27) and 1. 22(95%CI 1. 20-1. 26) in non-overweight men and women, respectively. These two values were with significant difference among non-overweight adults with different agedandsexes(P<0.01). No-overweightmenhadsmallerAUCandORamong18-34agegroupwhilelargerAUCand OR among 35-49, 50-64, and 65-plus age groups than women. The AUC and OR showed slight difference among age groups in non-overweight men, while these two values decreased with age in non-overweight women. The optimal cutoff value was higher in non-overweight women (0. 509 vs 0. 498) than that in men. Non-overweight men aged 50-64 years old had higher cutoff value than those aged 18-34, 35-49, and 65-plus years, while among non-overweight women the cutoff values increased with age. Conclusion WHtR had preferable discriminatory power and association with MS among non-overweight Chinese adults. Further studies should be conducted to explore the difference by age and sex.
