Background::Pathological scars are a disorder that can lead to various cosmetic, psychological, and functional problems, and no effective assessment methods are currently available. Assessment and treatment of pathological scars are based on cutaneous manifestations. A two-photon microscope (TPM) with the potential for real-time non-invasive assessment may help determine the under-surface pathophysiological conditions in vivo. This study used a portable handheld TPM to image epidermal cells and dermal collagen structures in pathological scars and normal skin in vivo to evaluate the effectiveness of treatment in scar patients. Methods::Fifteen patients with pathological scars and three healthy controls were recruited. Imaging was performed using a portable handheld TPM. Five indexes were extracted from two dimensional (2D) and three dimensional (3D) perspectives, including collagen depth, dermo-epidermal junction (DEJ) contour ratio, thickness, orientation, and occupation (proportion of collagen fibers in the field of view) of collagen. Two depth-dependent indexes were computed through the 3D second harmonic generation image and three morphology-related indexes from the 2D images. We assessed index differences between scar and normal skin and changes before and after treatment.Results::Pathological scars and normal skin differed markedly regarding the epidermal morphological structure and the spectral characteristics of collagen fibers. Five indexes were employed to distinguish between normal skin and scar tissue. Statistically significant differences were found in average depth ( t = 9.917, P <0.001), thickness ( t = 4.037, P <0.001), occupation ( t= 2.169, P <0.050), orientation of collagen ( t = 3.669, P <0.001), and the DEJ contour ratio ( t = 5.105, P <0.001). Conclusions::Use of portable handheld TPM can distinguish collagen from skin tissues; thus, it is more suitable for scar imaging than reflectance confocal microscopy. Thus, a TPM may be an auxiliary tool for scar treatment selection and assessing treatment efficacy.

ObjectiveTo determine the resistance of adult Culex quinquefasciatus and Musca domestica to commonly used insecticides in Dazhu District of Chongqing in 2023, and provide scientific evidence for rational use of hygienic insecticides. MethodsDrug resistance was determined by using adult mosquito contact tube method and adult fly drop method. ResultsIn 2023, the 24-hour mortality rate of adult Culex quinquefasciatus in Dazu District, Chongqing, against permethrin (0.25%), beta-cypermethrin (0.025%), deltamethrin (0.025%), malathion (5%) and propoxur (0.1%) was 37.35%, 21.92%, 28.33%, 96.43%, and 95.38%, respectively. The median lethal dose (LD50) value of female adult Musca domestica against beta-cypermethrin (95.8%), chlorpyrifos (97%), deltamethrin (90%) and dichlorvos (95%) was 2.572 μg, 0.329 μg, 0.406 μg, and 0.492 μg, respectively, with resistance of 829.68, 7.65, 53.42, and 46.42 folds to the above tested insecticides. ConclusionAdult Culex quinquefasciatus and Musca domestica in Dazu District show various degrees of resistance to commonly used insecticides. It warrants suspending the insecticides with high resistance, whereas mixedly and alternatively administering the insecticides with possible resistance and low resistance. Additionally, we should continue to monitor the resistance and guide the rational use of insecticides.

Objective:
To investigate the nicotine dependence of patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) who smoke and analyze its influencing factors, so as to provide insights into targeted smoking cessation interventions for smoking COPD patients.
Methods:
The smoking COPD patients were selected from three hospitals in Lanzhou City using the convenience sampling method from October 2022 to April 2023. Demographic data, smoking status, and willingness to quit smoking were collected using questionnaire surveys. Nicotine dependence was assessed according to Fagerstrom Test for Nicotine Dependence. The influencing factors of nicotine dependence in smoking COPD patients were analyzed using a multiple linear regression model.
Results:
A total of 200 questionnaires were distributed, and 171 valid questionnaires were collected, with a response rate of 85.50%. The median age was 48.00 (interquartile range, 10.00) years. There were 158 males, accounting for 92.40%; 53 cases with a college degree or above, accounting for 30.99%. The median smoking duration was 15.00 (interquartile range, 11.00) years. There were 73 patients (42.69%) smoking 21 to 30 cigarettes per day, and 159 patients (92.98%) with the willingness to quit smoking. The median nicotine dependence score was 3.00 (interquartile range, 1.00) points. There were statistically significant differences in nicotine dependence scores among smoking COPD patients with different ages, educational levels, occupations, interpersonal relationships, smoking duration, daily cigarette consumption, awareness of smoking hazards and willingness to quit smoking (all P<0.05). Multiple linear regression analysis revealed that nicotine dependence was related with educational level (β=-0.251), interpersonal relationship (β=-0.246), smoking duration (β=0.038), daily cigarette consumption (β=0.518) and willingness to quit smoking (β=-0.173) among smoking COPD patients (all P<0.05).
Conclusion
The nicotine dependence among smoking COPD patients was influenced by educational level, interpersonal relationships, smoking duration, daily cigarette consumption and willingness to quit smoking.

Objective:To systematically evaluate the effect of singing therapy on patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.Methods:Randomized controlled trials on the effect of singing therapy in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease were searched by computer from PubMed, Web of Science, Cochrane Library, CINAHL, Embase, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, Wanfang Data, China Biology Medicine disc, and VIP. The search period was from the establishment of databases to June 30, 2023. Two researchers independently screened literature, performed a literature quality assessment, and extracted data. Meta-analysis was performed using RevMan 5.4 software.Results:A total of 11 articles were included. Meta-analysis showed that singing therapy for 10 weeks or more could improved anxiety ( MD=-5.01, 95% CI: -5.76~-4.25, P<0.001), and depression ( MD=-4.73, 95% CI: -8.82~-0.64, P=0.020). Singing therapy with a duration of less than 60 min per session and/or five interventions per week or more could improve FEV 1% predicted values ( MD=9.46, 95% CI: 7.66~11.26, P<0.001) in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. Conclusions:Singing therapy is best achieved at least five times a week, with each session lasting less than 60 minutes and lasting for at least ten weeks. However, more high-quality, multicenter and large sample studies are still needed for further validation.

Pediatric idiopathic nephrotic syndrome (INS) is characterized by massive albuminuria, hypoproteinemia, edema and hyperlipidemia, with a long course and high probability of relapse and prolongation. Long-term complications caused by long-term usage of hormones and immunosuppressants in children with INS seriously affect their physical and mental health and quality of life. Most children with steroid-sensitive nephrotic syndrome can be cured before adulthood, while some of them relapse in adulthood. Long-term prognosis of children with steroid-resistant nephrotic syndrome is poor. There have been few studies in China followed the long-term outcomes and its related factors of children with INS over 10 years. The paper reviewed the literatures on the long-term outcomes of children with INS, including renal survival, growth, mental health, learning and work, marriage and fertility, disease recurrence and long-term related complications, to explore the factors related to the poor long-term outcomes of children with INS and to assist in clinical decision-making and follow-up management.

Objective:To understand the identification value of pointing gestures in children with autism spectrum disorder(ASD) and its relationship with functional development.Methods:From December 2020 to November 2021, 1 099 children from Children’s Health Care Center of Beijing Children’s Hospital were tested by pointing gestures test, including 942 ASD children and 157 typical developed children.And the data of children's neuropsychological development scale from 800 children aged 1.0-5.9 were collected.SPSS 20.0 was used for statistical analysis. Trend test was used to analyze the distribution of pointing gestures test sensitivity in autistic children, and ANOVA was used to analyze the relationship between pointing gestures test scores and functional development fields.Results:The sensitivity of pointing gestures was 83.5% in children aged 1.0-10.0 years, 76.3%-93.1% in children aged 1.0-4.9 years, and 93.1%-95.1% in children aged 1.0-2.9.With the increase of age, the sensitivity of pointing gestures in autistic children (linear-by-linear association =164.889, P<0.001) and the Yoden index had a decreasing trend. The positive predictive value (91.53%-100.00%) and negative predictive value (75.36%-91.84%) were found in the children aged 1.0-10.0 years.The sensitivity of pointing gestures test was 44.9% in children with mild autism aged 1.0-10.0 years and 46.5%-65.9% in children with mild autism aged from 1.0-3.9 years. The sensitivity of pointing gestures test was 81.5% in children with moderate autism aged from 1.0-10.0 years and 87.3%-97.8% in children with moderate autism aged 1.0-3.9 years. The sensitivity of the pointing gestures test was 97.2% in children with severe autism aged 1.0-10.0 years, and 100.0% in children with severe autism aged 1.0-3.9 years. The sensitivity of the pointing gestures in mild, moderate and severe autism children decreased with age (linear-by-linear association values were 16.725, 64.232, 66.732 respectively, all P<0.001). The children with severe autism mainly scored 2 points (80.3%, 419/522) on the pointing gestures test , and children with moderate autism mainly scored 1 point(64.2%, 170/265) on the pointing gestures test. There were significant differences in functional development among different pointing gestures test groups.Functional development score in the autism children with 0 score of pointing gestures test was significantly higher than those with 1 score and 2 scores of pointing gestures test (all P<0.05). Conclusion:Pointing gestures has good sensitivity in children with autism (especially 1.0-4.9 years of age), and may serve as an objectively observable screening method. The better children with autism score on the pointing gestures, the better their functional development.

Objective:To explore the differential expression profile of miRN in the development of diabetes nephropathy (DN), and further explore the mechanism of miR-126-5p involved in high glucose induced injury of renal tubular epithelial cells.Methods:Firstly, we downloaded existing chip data from the Gene Expression Integrated Database (GEO) and used GEO2R, miRanda, gene ontology (GO) analysis, and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) analysis to mine differential miRNAs. Subsequently, a high glucose induced HK-2 cell injury model was used and divided into three groups: high glucose model group, si-HOTAIR group, and si HOTAIR+ miR-126-5p inhibitor group. The three groups of cells were sequentially transfected with siRNA-NC, siRNA-HOTAIR, and siRNA-HOTAIR+ miR-126-5p mimic, and cultured in a medium containing 60 mmol/L glucose. Flow cytometry was used to detect changes in apoptosis levels in each group, while cell counting kit-8 (CCK-8) was used to detect changes in cell proliferation.Results:Through data mining analysis using GEO, it was found that compared to ordinary mice, DN mice had 74 upregulated miRNAs and 80 downregulated miRNAs in their kidney tissue. Enrichment analysis results showed that miRNAs could target signaling pathways such as Wnt, PKG, MAPK, and Rap1, and miR-126-5p was significantly downregulated. In the high glucose induced HK-2 cell injury model, the experimental results showed that the inhibitory effect on cell proliferation activity was more significant at a high glucose concentration of 60 mmol/L ( P<0.05); High glucose stimulation significantly reduced the expression of miR-126-5p ( P<0.05). The results of flow cytometry showed that compared with the high glucose model group, the apoptosis rate of the si-HOTAIR group significantly decreased ( P<0.05), while the apoptosis rate of the si-HOTAIR+ miR-126-5p inhibitor group significantly increased ( P<0.05). The CCK-8 experiment showed that compared with the high glucose model group, the cell viability of the si-HOTAIR group significantly increased ( P<0.05); The cell viability of the si-HOTAIR+ miR-126-5p inhibitor group was inhibited ( P<0.05). Conclusions:miR-126-5p can inhibit high glucose induced apoptosis in HK-2 cells and protect them.
