Objective: To analyze the change trends in the body shape indicators and proportions of students in Harbin from 2010 to 2024, and to investigate ergonomic compatibility of functional dimensions of school desks and chairs with current student shape indicators, so as to provide a reference for revising furniture standards of desks and chairs. Methods: Between September and November of both 2010 and 2024, a combination of convenience sampling and stratified cluster random sampling was conducted across three districts in Harbin, yielding samples of 6 590 and 6 252 students, respectively. Anthropometric shape indicators cluding height, sitting height, crus length, and thigh length-and their proportional changes were compared over the 15-year period. The 2024 data were compared with current standard functional dimensions of school furniture. The statistical analysis incorporated t-test and Mann-Whitney U- test. Results: From 2010 to 2024, average height increased by 1.8 cm for boys and 1.5 cm for girls; sitting height increased by 1.5 cm for both genders; crus length increased by 0.3 cm for boys and 0.4 cm for girls; and thigh length increased by 0.5 cm for both genders. The ratios of sitting height to height, and sitting height to leg length increased by less than 0.1 . The difference between desk chair height and 1/3 sitting height ranged from 0.4-0.8 cm. Among students matched with size 0 desks and chairs, 22.0% had a desk to chair height difference less than 0, indicating that the desk to chair height difference might be insufficient for taller students. The differences between seat height and fibular height ranged from -1.4 to 1.1 cm; and the differences between seat depth and buttock popliteal length ranged from -9.8 to 3.4 cm. Among obese students, the differences between seat width and 1/2 hip circumference ranged from -20.5 to -8.7 cm, while it ranged from -12.2 to -3.8 cm among non obese students. Conclusion Current furniture standards basically satisfy hygienic requirements; however, in the case of exceptionally tall and obese students, ergonomic accommodations such as adaptive seating allocation or personalized adjustments are recommended to meet hygienic requirements.

Although it has high resolution for soft tissues,magnetic resonance imaging(MRI)is not the standard for chest imaging,which results in an insufficient amount of expert-annotated MRI data.Therefore,CT image is usually converted into MRI image.To overcome the difficulty of obtaining the corresponding modal CT and MRI images,a CSCGAN model with CycleGAN as the framework is proposed based on the structural characteristics of generative adversarial networks.Considering the possibility of mode collapse in CycleGAN,StyleGan2 which can control the style and feature details of the synthetic image and realize the synthesis of high-resolution images is integrated into CycleGAN for reconstructing the generator.A noise module is introduced to reduce external interference.In addition,in order to prevent the loss of tumors during conversion,the discriminator structure of the network is modified,and a mixed attention mechanism is added.Experimental results show that compared with the images generated by other methods,those generated by the proposed model are improved in Dice similarity coefficient,Hausdorff distance,volume ratio and mean intersection over union,indicating that the proposed method can effectively realize the mode conversion of liver tumor images,and that the generated data can improve the segmentation accuracy.

In view of complex pathogenic factors and diagnostic difficulties of benign paroxysmal positional vertigo,a novel method for diagnosing nystagmus in vertigo based on non-local convolutional and convolutional block attention module(CBAM)is proposed.An object detection model is constructed to locate the pupil,thereby tracking eye movement and extract temporal data of horizontal and vertical motion trajectories.Subsequently,a classification model is employed for detection and classification,utilizing a non-local convolutional module to capture remote dependency relationships in nystagmus data,and introducing CBAM to extract high-and low-level semantic information in the feature layer for enhancing the detection performance.Experiments were conducted on a video nystagmus dataset provided by the Eye,Ear,Nose and Throat Hospital.The results show that compared with the best mainstream method,the proposed method improves precision,recall rate,accuracy,and average F1 score by 1.82%,2.09%,1.62%,and 1.96%,respectively,demonstrating its superiority.

Due to the low contrast of CT images,irregular shape of the liver,and blurred boundaries with adjacent organs,the existing methods based on convolutional neural network underperform in liver segmentation tasks,especially for boundary recognition and small object detection.A novel liver segmentation method is proposed based on multi-scale feature fusion and attention,namely MFFA UNet.Multi-scale feature fusion is firstly employed to acquire abundant segmentation details,while spatial and channel attention mechanisms are utilized to capture global spatial and inter-channel relationships.Additionally,a deep supervision module fully leverages the output of intermediate hidden layers,enhancing the learning capability of the network,which in turn accelerates the network's convergence speed.Moreover,a hybrid loss function is adopted to address the issue of class imbalance,further boosting the model's segmentation efficacy.Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed MFFA UNet outperforms the prevailing segmentation networks on the public LITS dataset,producing results that are closer to the ground truth.

A composite nystagmus classification framework enhanced by dual attention mechanism is proposed to address the problem that the existing researches only identify whether nystagmus occurs in a horizontal,vertical,or axial direction,but fail to consider the issue of composite nystagmus composed of multiple directions with various intensities in clinical practice.A spatiotemporal concentration algorithm for nystagmus videos is presented,and it combines convolutional neural networks and Hough transform to remove interference from invalid frames and regions and to improve the quality of nystagmus videos.Then,a dense optical flow algorithm is used to extract the optical flow field of eye movement.Finally,a composite nystagmus classification network based on dual attention mechanism enhancement is constructed.An improved efficient channel attention module is used to effectively obtain the direction and intensity of nystagmus in different channels of the optical flow map;and a temporal attention module is added at the end of the bidirectional long short-term memory network to achieve significant expression of classification results based on different temporal features.On the nystagmus dataset provided by the cooperating hospital,the proposed method has an accuracy rate of 83.17%for composite nystagmus classification,and achieved accuracy rates of 91.03%,89.74%,and 86.05%for individual horizontal,vertical,and axial nystagmus classifications.The proposed method realizes the intelligent classification of composite nystagmus and is valuable in clinic.

Objective:To assess the relationship between serum total bilirubin and fundus arteriosclerosis in different genders.Methods:The physical examination data of Huadong Sanatorium in 2018 were analyzed, and a total of 26 275 people were included in this retrospective cross-sectional study. The age of this study was 18-86 (47.7±11.1) years old. Among them, there were 15 244 males (58.02%) and 11 031 females (41.98%). Participants were divided into 4 groups according to total bilirubin quartile values: Q1<11.50 μmol/L, Q2∶11.50-13.93 μmol/L, Q3∶13.94-17.14 μmol/L and Q4>17.14 μmol/L. The relationship between total serum bilirubin and fundus arteriosclerosis is determined using univariate and multivariate logistic regression analysis methods. The restricted cubic spline method was used to detect the dose-response relationship between total bilirubin and fundus arteriosclerosis. Results:In males, univariate analysis showed that high level of total bilirubin was a protective factor for fundus arteriosclerosis ( OR=0.87, 95% CI 0.78-0.97, P=0.012). After adjusting for other confounding factors, multivariate analysis showed that high level of total bilirubin remained as an independent protective factor for fundus arteriosclerosis ( OR=0.86, 95% CI 0.74-0.99, P=0.047). There was a linear dose-response relationship between total bilirubin level and fundus arteriosclerosis ( P=0.012). In females, univariate analysis showed that there were no statistically significant association between high level of total bilirubin and fundus arteriosclerosis ( OR=0.96, 95% CI 0.80-1.17, P=0.709). After adjusting for other confounding factors, multivariate analysis showed no statistically significant association between high level of total bilirubin and fundus arteriosclerosis ( OR=0.98, 95% CI 0.76-1.27, P=0.888). No linear dose-response relationship between total bilirubin level and fundus arteriosclerosis was found in females ( P=0.253). Conclusion:There are gender differences in the relationship between total bilirubin and fundus arteriosclerosis in this cohort. Elevated levels of total bilirubin are associated with fundus arteriosclerosis in males but not in females.

Objective:To explore the regulatory effect of miR-873-5p micro-RNA targeting voltage-dependent anion channel protein 1 (VDAC1) in neurons and its mechanism.Methods:Murine nerve cells were randomly divided in vitro into a control group, a model group, a mimetic negative carrier (miR-con) group and an miR-873-5p group. The epileptiform hippocampal nerve cell model was induced in all of the cells except those in the control group using magnesium-free medium. The control group was normally cultured, while the miR-con and miR-873-5p groups were transfected with miR control and miR-873-5p RNA respectively. Real-time fluorescent quantitative polymerase chain reactions were used to detect the expression of miR-873-5p and VDAC1 mRNA. Western blotting was employed to detect VDAC1, B-cell lymphoma/leukemia-2 protein (Bcl-2), Bcl-2 associated X protein (Bax) and cleared caspase-3 in the neurons. The levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS), malondialdehyde (MDA) and glutathione (GSH) were measured using the DCFH-DA fluorescent probe, the thiobarbituric acid method and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay respectively. Any apoptosis was detected using flow cytometry, while the targeting of miR-873-5p on VDAC1 was verified using the double fluorescence zymase reporter gene method.Results:Compared with the control group, a significant decrease in the average expression of miR-873-5p, Bcl-2 and in GSH and MDA levels was observed in the model group, but there was a significant increase in the average level of VDAC1, Bax, cleaved caspase-3 and ROS and in the rate of apoptosis. Compared with the miR-con group, a significant decrease in the average expression of Bax, cleaved caspase-3, ROS and in the apoptosis rate was observed in the miR-873-5p group, but there was a significant increase in the average level of Bcl-2, GSH and MDA. Moreover, it was verified that miR-873-5p reduced the expression of VDAC1.Conclusion:miR-873-5p protects damaged neurons by inhibiting their apoptosis through negatively regulating the target gene VDAC1 and the oxidative stress response.

Objective To investigate the effect of intravenous anesthesia with sufentanil combined with propofol on hemodynamics and oxygen metabolism in patients with esophageal cancer under high altitude.Methods 60 patients with esophageal cancer radical surgery was selected from March 2015 to March 2017 in our hospital and were divided into two groups according to the random number table,30 patients in each group.Patients in the control group were given with fentanyl and propofol intravenous anesthesia,and patients in the observation group were given sufentanil combined with propofol anesthesia.The occurrence of restlessness during the recovery of anesthesia in the two groups were observed,the spontaneous breathing recovery time,extubation time and postoperative Mini-mental State Examination (MMSE) score were recorded,and the indexes of hemodynamics and oxygen metabolism were measured at the time of before induction of anesthesia (T0),tracheal intubation (T1),skin incision (T2),thoracotomy (T3),free esophagus (T4),esophageal catheter removal time (T5).Results The spontaneous respiration recovery time and extubation time of the observation group were significantly shorter than those of the control group (P ＜ 0.05).The degree of restlessness in the observation group was weaker than that in the control group (P ＜ 0.05).Mean arterial pressure (MAP) in the control group at T2-T4 were significantly higher than those in T0 (P ＜ 0.05),but MAP and heart rate (HR) in the observation group at T1-T5 were significantly lower than those of T0 (P ＜ 0.05).Compared with T0 group,oxygen saturation (SpO2),oxygen saturation of mixed venose blood (SvO2) and oxygen delivery (DO2) at T1-T5 were significantly decreased (P ＜ 0.05),oxygen consumption (VO2) at T2-T4 was significantly increased (P ＜ 0.05),especially in the control group (P ＜ 0.05).The MMSE scores of the two groups were significantly lower than those before the operation (P ＜ 0.05),and the scores in observation group was significantly higher than the control group (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions The intravenous anesthesia with sufentanil combined with propofol is more helpful in maintaining hemodynamic stability and oxygen metabolism balance than intravenous anesthesia with fentanyl combined with propofol and has little effect on postoperative anesthesia recovery and cognitive function.

Objective To observe the clinical safety and efficacy of foscarnet prophylaxis and pre-emptive therapy for cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection in allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT). Methods Ninety-six patients undergoing allo-HSCT from October 2014 to December 2016 were retrospectively analyzed. Plasma CMV-DNA was monitored with real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RQ-PCR) from beginning to 180 days after transplantation. Foscarnet was used not only for prophylaxis but also for first-line pre-emptive therapy when plasma CMV-DNA turned to positive. Foscarnet was given 60 mg·kg-1·d-1 and 120 mg·kg-1·d-1 respectively in prevention and pre-emptive therapy. Incidences of CMV infection and CMV disease were observed, influencing factors on CMV in faction and the efficacy and safety of foscarnet prophylaxis were analyzed, and survival of patients treated by all-HSCT was evaluated. Results Of the total 96 patients, 42 cases (43.8%) had CMV infection with the median time of 42 days after allo-HSCT. CMV-DNA became negative in 36 patients (85.7%, 36/42) after pre-emptive therapy. Six patients (14.3 %, 6/42) developed CMV disease, including 5 patients with CMV negative and 1 patient died for CMV pneumonia. Haploidentical donor and grade Ⅱ-Ⅳacute graft versus host disease (GVHD) were the risk factors for CMV reactivation (χ2 = 3.834, P< 0.05; χ2 = 16.807, P< 0.001). The side effects of foscarnet prophylaxis were mild without hematologic toxicities. 12 patients (28.6 %) died in 42 patients with CMV infection, and 6 patients (11.1 %) died in 54 patients without CMV infection. The difference of survival rates between both groups was not statistically significant. Conclusion Foscarnet is an effective agent for prophylaxis and pre-emptive therapy in CMV infection after allo-HSCT with mild adverse reactions, especially for patients following with hematopoietic recovering.
