Refeeding syndrome(RFS)has a high incidence among critically ill patients and significantly impacts the re-covery and prognosis of the patients.In this paper,we reviewed the literature on the risk factors and risk prediction models for RFS,finding the risk factors of RFS included patient-related,treatment-related factors and disease-related factors and the risk prediction models encompassed risk stratification model,risk score models and the Logistic regression models.It was concluded from the review that early assessment was crucial to preventing the occurrence of RFS.However,there was still a lack of reliable RFS risk prediction models with good predictive performance.It was found as well that it was crucial for the prevention of RFS to attach importance to nutritional and serological indicators and other factors.It was expected to be a necessity to conduct prospec-tive and multicenter studies to develop a risk prediction model for predicting RFS for ICU patients.Our review provides a refer-ence for early assessment and intervention for critically ill patients with RFS.

Objective:To investigate the feasibility and value of participatory bilingual teaching in nuclear medicine teaching.Methods:With the same chapter of Nuclear Medicine as the teaching contents, the traditional method of cramming bilingual teaching was used for the clinical medical students in the class of 2014 of the seven-year program and the five-year program, and the method of participatory bilingual teaching was used for the students in the class of 2015. The methods of periodical achievement test, questionnaire survey, and final examination were used to evaluate the teaching effect of the above two teaching modes.Results:In the periodical achievement test, the participatory bilingual teaching group had significantly higher scores than the cramming teaching group in terms of mean score, case analysis, and English questions [seven-year program: (82.13±10.72), (35.74±4.13), and (23.03±3.40) vs. (79.21±11.31), (33.86±5.23), and (22.12±2.75), P<0.05; five-year program: (78.66±12.75), (34.30±5.59), and (22.45±2.91) vs. (75.29±10.81), (32.70±6.04), and (21.36±3.09), P<0.05]. The questionnaire survey showed that participatory bilingual teaching had a better degree of satisfaction than cramming teaching. The participatory bilingual teaching group had a better score than the cramming teaching group in the final examination, but with no significant difference between the two groups. Conclusions:In the teaching of nuclear medicine, the participatory bilingual teaching mode can significantly improve teaching effect and achieve the teaching goal efficiently.

Objective:To explore the effects of standard meal and treadmill exercise test on body surface gastrointestinal electrogram in healthy subjects, and to provide more evidence for the clinical application of gastrointestinal electrogram.Methods:From January to June 2021, a total of 100 healthy asymptomatic volunteers underwent gastrointestinal electrogram after fasting, standard meal and treadmill exercise test. After the subjects fasted for more than 8 hours, the gastrointestinal electrogram was performed after the subjects were lying flat, quiet, and breathing steadily, electrodes were placed on the the body surface projection positions of the gastric body, the lesser curvature, the greater curvature, the antrum, the ascending colon, the transverse colon, the descending colon, and the rectum. The fasting gastrointestinal electrogram was recorded for 6 min. Then lay for 5 to 10 min after the standard meal (100 g bread, 250 mL milk), the postprandial gastrointestinal electrogram was recorded for 6 min. And lay for 5 to 10 min after treadmill exercise test, then the postexercise gastrointestinal electrogram was recorded for 6 min. The frequency and amplitude of gastrointestinal electrogram waveforms of the three time points were compared, and the percentage of gastrointestinal electrical rhythm disorder, and slow wave frequency instability coefficient were also compared. Stratified analysis of gastric motility was performed according to age, sex and body mass index. Paired t-test, Pearson Chi-squared test, continuity correction Chi-squared test, Fisher′s exact method and Speraman correlation were used for statistical analysis. Results:The standard meal did not obviously affect the mean frequency of the gastric electrocardiogram, however the mean amplitude of gastric electrocardiogram significantly increased after standard meal compared with that of fasting, especially in the electrodes placed at lesser curvature((148.5±8.7) μV vs.(113.2±5.0)μV ), greater curvature((176.3±11.3) μV vs.(126.1±7.3) μV), and antrum((161.8±10.6) μV vs.(117.6±4.91) μV), and the differences were statistically significant( t=4.63, 4.63 and 3.99, all P< 0.001). There were no significant changs in rhythm and stability of the gastric electrocardiogram. The mean frequency of intestinal electrograms at the ascending colon, the transverse colon, the descending colon, and the rectum decreased after the standard meal compared with that of fasting ((10.8±0.2) count per minute(cpm) vs.(11.5±0.2) cpm, (10.5±0.2) cpm vs.(11.2±1.6) cpm, (10.9±0.2) cpm vs.(11.7±0.2) cpm, (11.1±0.2) cpm vs.(11.8±0.2) cpm), and the differences were statistically significant ( t=3.82, 4.55, 4.39, and 3.98, all P<0.001); the mean amplitude of the ascending colon, the transverse colon, and the rectum increased compared with that of fasting ((129.8±6.1) μV vs. (110.9±6.4) μV, (119.6±4.1) μV vs. (101.3±4.7) μV, (124.1±4.6) μV vs. (106.2±5.7) μV), and the differences were statistically significant ( t=2.62, 3.76, and 3.16; P=0.010, <0.001, =0.002); and the number of leads with enteroelectric rhythm disorder increased (398 vs. 389, the total number of leads is 400), and the difference was statistically significant( χ2=7.31, P=0.026). The mean frequency of gastric electricity after treadmill exercise in electrode placed at antrum increased compared with that after standard meal ((3.4±0.4) cpm vs.(3.3±0.3) cpm), and the differences were statistically significant( t=2.45, P=0.016), and the mean amplitude of gastric electricity in electrodes placed at gastric body, lesser curvature and antrum increased compared with those after standard meal((160.2±8.6) μV vs. (133.9±6.4) μV, (178.1±10.0) μV vs. (148.5±8.7) μV, (202.5±10.2) μV vs. (161.8±10.6) μV), and the differences were statistically significant ( t=2.30, 2.35, and 2.48; P=0.024, 0.021, and 0.015). Treadmill exercise affected the rhythm and stability of gastric electricity, and the number of electrodes with instable and abnormal coefficient frequency slow-wave significantly increased (25 vs. 1, the total number of electrodes is 400), and the difference was statistically significant( χ2=22.90, P<0.001). There was no significant change in the mean frequency of the colonic electricity after treadmill exercise compared with that after standard meal, however the mean amplitude of intestinal electrical waveform at the ascending colon, the transverse colon, the descending colon, and the rectum increased compared with those after standard meal((171.2±8.4) μV vs. (129.8±6.1) μV, (166.1±7.7) μV vs. (119.6±4.1) μV, (147.2±7.2) μV vs. (121.1±4.9) μV, (149.6±7.3) μV vs. (124.1±4.6) μV), and the differences were statistically significant( t=3.51, 5.49, 3.09, and 2.83; P=0.001, <0.001, =0.003, and=0.006), which affected the rhythm and stability of the colonic electricity, and the number of electrodes with instable and abnormal coefficient frequency slow-wave significantly increased (10 vs. 3, the total number of electrodes is 400, χ2=4.04, P=0.040). Gender was correlated with mean frequency of gastric electricity after standrdmeal and treadmill exercise test and mean amplitude of fasting and standard postprandial gastric electricity( r=0.242, -0.272, 0.286, 0.242; P=0.015, 0.006, 0.004, 0.015), and with mean amplitude of fasting and standard postprandial electricity( r=0.225, 0.460; P=0.024, <0.001). Age was only associated with mean frequency of fasting gastric electricity( r=-0.214, P=0.033). Body mass index was correlated with mean gastric electrical amplitude after fasting, standard meal and treadmill exercise( r=-0.347, -0.260, -0.211; P<0.001, =0.009, =0.036), as well as with the mean gastric electricity frequency after treadmill exercise ( r=0.242, P=0.016). Body mass index was correlated with the mean amplitude and frequency of fasting and standard postprandial intestinal electricity ( r=-0.261, -0.296, -0.400, -0.286; P=0.009, =0.003, < 0.001, =0.003). In the healthy volunteers with female gender and body mass index < 24 kg/m 2, there were statistically significant differences in the changes of gastric motility after standard meal (Fisher′s exact method, P=0.022 and 0.024). Conclusion:Both standard meal and treadmill exercise test affect gastrointestinal electrical activity, and exercise caused more changes in gastrointestinal electrical activity than standard meal.

Objective: To understand the situation of neglect of preschool children in the urban area of Xi an under the background of multi child policy, so as to provide a reference for making effective prevention. Methods: In Novmber 2022, according to the multi stage stratified cluster sampling principle, 2 450 parents of children aged 3-6 years were randomly selected from 7 urban areas of Xi an to participate in the questionnaire survey. A questionnaire survey was conducted using the "Neglect Evaluation Norms of 3-6 Years Old (Preschool) Children in Urban Areas of China". SPSS 18.0 software was used for statistical description, Chi square test and variance analysis. Results: The total neglect rate of preschool children in the urban area of Xi an was 29.0% and the total neglect score was (37.58±8.44). There was no statistical difference in the neglect status of children in different grade groups ( χ 2/ F =1.61, 2.98, P >0.05). The neglect score of boys was higher than girls ( t =2.45, P <0.05). There was no statistical difference in the neglect rate and neglect score of boys and girls in other levels ( P >0.05); except for the significant difference in the neglect degree of medical treatment, education and safety ( t =2.01, 2.28, 2.02, P <0.05). The rate and score of neglect in multi-child families were higher than only-child families ( χ 2/ t = 13.68, -4.54, P <0.05). There were significant differences in the rate and degree of neglect of children with different birth order, which were "third and fourth-born>second-born>first-born" ( χ 2/ F = 10.84 , 2.79, P <0.05). The neglect rate and score of "single parent family" were significantly higher than that of "nuclear family" and "three-generation family" ( χ 2/ F =4.78, 2.79, P <0.05). Conclusion The neglect situation of preschool children in urban area of Xi an is still serious, especially in multi-child families. It should actively explore the risk factors and formulate effective intervention measures.

We aimed to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of single-course initial regimens in patients with low-risk gestational trophoblastic neoplasia (GTN). In this trial (NCT01823315), 276 patients were analyzed. Patients were allocated to three initiated regimens: single-course methotrexate (MTX), single-course MTX + dactinomycin (ACTD), and multi-course MTX (control arm). The primary endpoint was the complete remission (CR) rate by initial drug(s). The primary CR rate was 64.4% with multi-course MTX in the control arm. For the single-course MTX arm, the CR rate was 35.8% by one course; it increased to 59.3% after subsequent multi-course MTX, with non-inferiority to the control (difference -5.1%,95% confidence interval (CI) -19.4% to 9.2%, P = 0.014). After further treatment with multi-course ACTD, the CR rate (93.3%) was similar to that of the control (95.2%, P = 0.577). For the single-course MTX + ACTD arm, the CR rate was 46.7% by one course, which increased to 89.1% after subsequent multi-course, with non-inferiority (difference 24.7%, 95% CI 12.8%-36.6%, P < 0.001) to the control. It was similar to the CR rate by MTX and further ACTD in the control arm (89.1% vs. 95.2%, P =0.135). Four patients experienced recurrence, with no death, during the 2-year follow-up. We demonstrated that chemotherapy initiation with single-course MTX may be an alternative regimen for patients with low-risk GTN.

Objective:To explore the effect of a new teaching mode, which includes bridge-in, outcome, pre-test, participation, post-test and summary (BOPPPS), on the online teaching of radiobiology related knowledge for cancer radiotherapy practitioners.Methods:Taking the cell survival curve, cell cycle and radiosensitivity as examples, the radiotherapy practitioners in multiple university-affiliated hospitals were organized to carry out a multicenter prospective randomized control study. All practitioners were randomly divided into BOPPPS group and control group. The courses for BOPPPS group were designed as an online classroom, consisting of pre-class preparation, online teaching and post-class stages. The online teaching stage included video viewing, basic knowledge learning, literature discussion, group discussion and others. The control group employed the traditional teaching mode. The χ2 test was used to compare the consistency of general conditions between the two groups, and nonparametric test was used to compare the differences in scores between two or more groups. Results:The score of the pre-class test was 58.56 ± 0.99. Post-class average score for BOPPPS group was 85.48±0.85 and for control group 77.79±1.10, with the former being higher 7.69 ( Z=5.31, P<0.001) than the latter. The average answer time was (296.62±15.40) s for BOPPPS group and (386.41±21.27) s for control group, with the former being shorter 89.79 s ( Z=3.34, P=0.001) than latter. Subgroup analysis shown that the scores of BOPPPS group were significantly rising, regardless of whether or not the students had studied radiobiology courses. Among the students who have not studied these courses, the scores were rising greatly. Moreover, From the analysis of different positions, it was found that both the scores of BOPPPS group and control group have risen, especially for doctors, deputy chief doctors, physicists and technicians. There were also statistically differences between different degrees, with significantly rise in scores for undergraduate and doctoral students ( Z=3.64, 4.18, P<0.001). Conclusions:The flexible application of BOPPPS teaching mode to the online education of such boring disciplines, like radiobiology, is of great significance to raise the theoretical basis of radiotherapy practitioners.

Objective:To investigate the relationship between tube voltage kV value for head and neck CT angiography and body weight.Methods:A total of 120 patients with suspected vascular disease of the head and neck who underwent CT angiography of the head and neck in Beihai People's Hospital from January 2020 to May 2022 were included in this study. Patients were divided into three groups according to different tube voltages: group A (tube voltage 120 kV, n = 45), group B (tube voltage 100 kV, n = 45) and group C (tube voltage 80 kV, n = 30). Patients in group A were divided into group A1 (< 70 kg, n = 15), group A2 (70-85 kg, n = 15) and group A3 (> 85 kg, n = 15) according to different body weights. Patients in group B were divided into group B1 (< 70 kg, n = 15), group B2 (70-85 kg, n = 15) and group B3 (> 85 kg, n = 15) according to different body weights. Patients in group C were divided into group C1 (< 70 kg, n = 15) and group C2 (70-85 kg, n = 15) according to different body weights. Group C3 was not used. The contrast medium used was Loversol. The CT value, image noise, signal-to-noise ratio, contrast to noise ratio, and effective radiation dose of arterial vessels in each group were measured. The images were subjectively evaluated by two physicians who had senior professional titles using a 5-point rating scale. Results:Subjective score of image quality was all ≥ 3 grade in each group. There was no significant difference in image quality rating between groups A1 and A2 and groups B1, B2, and C1. There was a remarkable difference in image quality rating between groups A3, B3, and C2 and the other groups. There was a significant difference in the CT value of blood vessels at four different levels between groups A1, B1 and C1 ( F = 76.82, 64.62, 98.79, 71.85, all P < 0.001). There was a significant difference in CT value of blood vessels at four different levels between groups A2, B2 and C2 ( F = 159.82, 112.33, 108.22, 135.18, all P < 0.001). There was a significant difference in CT value of blood vessels at four different levels between groups A3 and B3 ( t = 4.40, 4.27, 3.91, 3.59, all P < 0.05). In groups B3 and C2, the image noise was remarkably increased, signal to noise ratio and contrast to noise ratio were remarkably decreased compared with those in the other groups. The effective radiation dose of arterial vessels in group B1 was 47% lower than that in group A1 and the effective radiation dose of arterial vessels in group C1 was 73% lower than that in group A1 ( F = 116.18, P < 0.001). The effective radiation dose of arterial vessels in group B2 was 49% lower than that in group A2, and the effective radiation dose of arterial vessels in group C2 was 66% lower than that in group A2 ( H = 35.40, P < 0.001). The effective radiation dose in group B3 was 35% lower than that in group A3 ( t = 3.59, P < 0.05). Conclusion:In CT angiography of the head and neck, the selection of tube voltage kV value is related to body weight. Tube voltage 80 kV is suitable for patients with a body weight < 70 kg, tube voltage 100 kV for patients with a body weight of 70-85 kg, and tube voltage 120 kV for patients with a body weight > 85 kg. These tube voltages can decrease effective radiation dose and ensure image quality, meeting the requirement for clinical diagnosis.

Acetaminophen (APAP) overdose is the leading cause of drug-induced liver injury, and its prognosis depends on the balance between hepatocyte death and regeneration. Sirtuin 6 (SIRT6) has been reported to protect against oxidative stress-associated DNA damage. But whether SIRT6 regulates APAP-induced hepatotoxicity remains unclear. In this study, the protein expression of nuclear and total SIRT6 was up-regulated in mice liver at 6 and 48 h following APAP treatment, respectively.

Although children are susceptible to infectious diseases, the cases of children infected with 2019 Novel Coronavirus(2019-nCoV)is relatively low, and the proportion of severe illnesses is even lower.The reason is that the 2019-nCoV cell receptor has low binding capacity in children or the induced intracellular response is low, children’s immune system is immature, lymphocyte depletion and inflammatory factor storms are rare in children, and China′s strict prevention and control measures have kept children away from 2019-nCoV.

Objective:To explore the effect of virtual reality (VR)-based baduanjin exercise on the cognition, physical functioning and life quality of elderly persons with mild cognitive impairment (MCI).Methods:Fifty-seven mildly impaired elderly persons were randomly divided into an observation group ( n=29) and a control group ( n=28). Both groups were given routine care and health education in their nursing homes, while the observation group additionally performed 50 minutes of VR baduanjin exercise three times a week for 24 weeks. Both groups were assessed using the Montreal cognitive assessment (MoCA), the Rivermead behavioural memory test (second edition) (RBMT-Ⅱ), a digit-symbol substitution test (DSST) and the Trail Making Test (TMT). The short physical performance battery (SPPB) and Alzheimer′s disease quality of life (QOL-AD) instrument were also administered before and after the 24-week intervention. Results:After the intervention the average MoCA, RBMT-Ⅱ, DSST, TMT-A, SPPB and QOL-AD results of the observation group were all significantly better than before the intervention and better than the control group′s averages. The observation group also performed better on the 5 times sit-to-stand test, the tandem standing test and a walking speed test after the intervention.Conclusions:VR-based baduanjin practice can effectively improve the cognition and physical functioning of mildly impaired elderly persons, as well as improving their quality of life.
