Objective:
To explore the correlation among picky eating levels in preschool children, parental self-efficacy and parenting stress.
Methods:
A convenience sampling method was employed to conduct an electronic questionnaire survey among 459 children aged 3-6 years and their parents from five kindergartens in Urumqi in November 2023. The survey included a general information questionnaire, the Children s Eating Behavior Questionnaire (CEBQ), the Parenting Sense of Competence Scale (PSOC), and the Parenting Stress Index-Short Form (PSI-SF). The Mann-Whitney U-test was used for twogroup comparisons, and the Kruskal-Wallis H-test was applied for multi-group comparisons. Spearman correlation analysis was conducted to examine the relationships between children s picky eating levels and parenting selfefficacy as well as parenting stress.
Results:
The picky eating score of preschool children was 10.00 (4.00), and the parenting self-efficacy score was 58.00 (12.00), both indicating a moderate level. The parenting stress score was 75.00 (16.00), reflecting a moderately low level. Spearman correlation analysis showed that children s picky eating levels were negatively correlated with the total score of parenting self-efficacy ( r =-0.28) and positively correlated with the total score of parenting stress( r =0.25)( P <0.01).
Conclusions
Picky eating levels of preschool children are closely associated with parenting self-efficacy and parenting stress. Picky eating behaviors in children can be reduced by implementing various effective measures to enhance parenting self-efficacy and alleviate parenting stress.

OBJECTIVE To establish refined medication rules for parenteral nutrition (PN) and evaluate its effectiveness. METHODS Refined medication rules for PN were constructed based on drug instructions, relevant guidelines, and expert consensus. Through the pre-approval review system of prescription automatic screening system (PASS), PN prescription information for inpatients from January to December 2024 (referred to as “post-intervention”) was collected to analyze the post- intervention prescription review status. PN prescription information for inpatients at our hospital from January to December 2023 and January to December 2024 was collected through the medical order review system to evaluate the rationality rates of PN prescriptions. RESULTS The established refined medication rules for PN included system module rules (including nutrients, drug compatibility, PN concentration and osmotic pressure) and custom review rules (covering off-label drug use, drug compatibility, and other drug use conditions). As of December 2024, the PASS pre-approval review system had established a total of 102 rules, comprising 55 system module rules and 47 custom review rules for PN. After intervention, when comparing with the first quarter of 2024, the number of PN reviewed and intervened by pharmacists decreased, the pharmacist intervention rate dropped, while the rate of physician modifications following pharmacist intervention increased in the fourth quarter. The primary types of irrational prescriptions identified by the system module rules were irrational PN concentration and osmotic pressure. The primary types of irrational prescriptions identified by the custom review rules were off-label drug use (specifically indications for amino acids) and irrational drug incompatibility. In 2024, the number of false-positive tasks and the false-positive rate initially increased and then decreased, while both the number of irrational prescriptions identified through manual review and the false-negative rate showed a declining trend. In 2024, the overall rationality rate after manual review PN refined medication rules for PN medical order review system significantly increased compared to that in 2023 (P<0.01). CONCLUSIONS The refined medication rules for PN in our hospital were established successfully, which can reduce the PN-induced risks and significantly improve the rationality of PN prescriptions.

Projection micro stereolithography three-dimensional(3D)printing method was proposed in this study to fabricate complex microchannels of combined cross-sections.By using 3D printing and polydimethylsiloxane(PDMS)replication methods,two inertial microfluidic chips of three-step and five-step cross-sections were fabricated,and the dimension precisions of the microchannels were controlled within 20 μm.Using the microfluidic chips,the movements of two fluorescent polystyrene particles with diameters of 10 and 6 μm in the stepped channels were investigated.In addition,numerical simulations were applied to demonstrate the inertial focusing mechanisms of particles in the channels.It was found that 10-μm particles had three equilibrium positions in the three-step channel,which located at the inner walls of the three steps,respectively,and most particles focused at the inner step.The 6-μm particles also had three equilibrium positions in the three-step channel.However,the particles migrated to the middle and the outer steps under high flow rates.In the five-step channel,when the flow rate was increased gradually,10-μm particles had a single and two equilibrium positions,respectively,and the particles migrated towards the inner channel wall under high flow rates.In comparison to 10-μm particles,6-μm particles had two stable equilibrium positions in the five-step channel at all flow rate range.It could be concluded that the quantity,shape and strength of the secondary flow vortex could be altered by changing structure of the combined cross-section,thus the equilibrium positions and quantities of the focusing particles could be also regulated.The research outcome might provide new insights for precise cell inertial manipulation and promote the application and development of inertial microfluidic technology in biomedical and other fields.

BACKGROUND:For the patients who have undergone unicompartmental knee arthroplasty,although the surgical effect is clear,there is still a lack of effective quantitative evaluation tools,and it is necessary to further explore the early postoperative gait and stability changes. OBJECTIVE:To investigate the changes in gait and stability before and after unicompartmental knee arthroplasty. METHODS:From May 2021 to May 2022,30 patients aged(63.80±9.31)years who planned to perform unilateral unicompartmental knee arthroplasty in the Department of Joint Surgery,Affiliated Hospital of Xuzhou Medical University were selected as the unicompartmental knee arthroplasty group.15 healthy elderly patients aged(61.28±8.60)years without a history of hip and knee pain and hip and knee joint dysfunction were recruited as the control group.Hospital for special surgery scores,stability parameters(center of pressure path length,95%confidence ellipse area)and gait parameters(pace,stride length,stride frequency,gait cycle,and the proportion of single support period)were recorded and compared in the control group and unicompartmental knee arthroplasty group before operation,1 and 3 months after operation. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)There was no significant difference in the step frequency between the patients 1 month after operation and those before operation in the unicompartmental knee arthroplasty group(P>0.05).The stability of 1 month after operation was worse than that before operation,and other parameters of 1 month after operation were better than those before operation,and the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05).(2)Hospital for special surgery score,gait and stability parameters at 3 months after operation were better than those before operation(P<0.05).(3)Compared with the control group,the pace,stride length,stride frequency,and the proportion of single support period of the unicompartmental knee arthroplasty group were significantly lower before and 3 months after operation.Center of pressure path length,95%confidence ellipse area and gait cycle were greater in the unicompartmental knee arthroplasty group than those in the control group,with statistically significant differences(P<0.05).(4)It is indicated that gait analysis is an effective means to quantitatively evaluate the rehabilitation status after unicompartmental knee arthroplasty.The early gait recovery after unicompartmental knee arthroplasty is good,but the gait frequency improvement is not obvious and the stability is poor 1 month after the operation.

ObjectiveTo genotype Oncomelania hupensis, based on microsatellites, in different snail-bearing environments in Jiaxing City, Zhejiang Province, for population genetics analysis in order to explore the reasons and influencing factors for the existence or proliferation of snails and to provide scientific basis for effective monitoring and control of snails. MethodsA total of 90 snail samples from three populations were collected in Yaobang Village (YB) and Sanxing Village (SX) in Pinghu City, and Yunhe Farm (YH) in Xiuzhou District, all were selected for snail checking in key snail habitats of Jiaxing City in 2022. DNA of the snails was genotyped and analyzed for population genetics using nine microsatellite loci. ResultsA total of 84 alleles were observed, and the mean number of alleles (Na) was 7.889, 5.667, and 3.778 for YB, SX, and YH respectively; the number of effective alleles (NeA) was 4.807, 3.329, and 2.294, respectively; and the coefficients of inbreeding (FIS) were 0.400, 0.377, and 0.493, respectively. Under the Infinite Allele Model (IAM), the SX and YH might have a recent bottleneck. The NEstimator and LDNe software calculated effective population sizes (Ne) were above 31.9. AMOVA analysis showed that the variation of snails in the three populations mainly existed among individuals, accounting for 41.4% of the total variation. The value of the index of genetic differentiation between populations (FST) was 0.286, indicating a high degree of genetic differentiation. The results of the principal component analysis and phylogenetic tree were consistent, and the three populations were divided into two lineages, YB and SX were one lineage, and YH belonged to another independent lineage. Population history and dynamics analysis showed that the gene flow of the three populations was insufficient, population divergence history indicated that YH might have diverged from SX first, and YB was produced by the contact fusion of SX and YH. ConclusionThe genetic diversity of snail populations in Jiaxing City is generally low, and the snail populations are unstable, with a great degree of genetic differentiation and insufficient gene flow among populations. This study can provide a basis for evaluating the effectiveness of the control of the snail as well as monitoring the trend of the spread of the snail.
