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.

Platycodonis Radix is the dry root of Platycodon grandiflorum of Campanulaceae, which has a variety of pharmacological effects and is a commonly used bulk Chinese medicine. In this study, the chloroplast genome sequences of six P. grandiflorum from different producing areas has been sequenced with Illumina HiSeq X Ten platform. The specific DNA barcodes were screened, and the germplasm resources and genetic diversity were analyzed according to the specific barcodes. The total length of the chloroplast genome of 6 P. grandiflorum samples was 172 260-172 275 bp, and all chloroplast genomes showed a typical circular tetrad structure and encoded 141 genes. The comparative genomics analysis and results of amplification efficiency demonstrated that trnG-UCC and ndhG_ndhF were the potential specific DNA barcodes for identification the germplasm resources of P. grandiflorum. A total of 305 P. grandiflorum samples were collected from 15 production areas in 9 provinces, for which the fragments of trnG-UCC and ndhG_ndhF were amplificated and the sequences were analyzed. The results showed that trnG-UCC and ndhG_ndhF have 5 and 11 mutation sites, respectively, and 5 and 7 haplotypes were identified, respectively. The combined analysis of the two sequences formed 13 haplotypes (named Hap1-Hap13), and Hap4 is the main genotype, followed by Hap1. The unique haplotypes possessed by the three producing areas can be used as DNA molecular tags in this area to distinguish from the germplasm resources of P. grandiflorum from other areas. The haplotype diversity, nucleotide diversity and genetic distance were 0.94, 4.79×10^-3 and 0.000 0-0.020 3, respectively, suggesting that the genetic diversity was abundant and intraspecific kinship was relatively close. This study laid a foundation for the identification of P. grandiflorum, the protection and utilization of germplasm resources, and molecular breeding.

Objective: To establish an optimized method for isolation and purification of microglia from aged rat brain tissue, and the phenotype of microglia was detected by flow cytometry. Methods: With young rats(3 months old) as control, the brain tissues of aged rats were immediately processed into single cell suspensions by mechanical dissociation and enzymatic digestion using type IV collagenase. Microglia were isolated on Percoll gradients(30%-37%-70%). The cells were stained with fluorescence-labeled antibodies and the phenotype of microglia was detected by flow cytometry. Results: This study developed a method that enzymatic digestion and mechanical dissociation combined with density gradient centrifugation. More single cells could be obtained by using this method. And the survival rate of cells was more than 90%. The flow cytometric analysis showed that the expression of M1 microglia marker CD86 and MHC Ⅱ increased(P<0.01), and the expression of M2 microglia marker CD200R increased(P<0.01) in aged rats compared with that in young rats. Conclusion The use of type IV collagenase and mechanical digestion combined with density gradient centrifugation is good for isolating and purifying microglia from adult and aged rat brain tissue.

Background Cold environments reduce work efficiency and increase the risk of frostbite. Objective To investigate the effects on cold protection and manual performance of rescue gloves in cold environments, and to preliminarily verify the feasibility of related quantitative characterization methods. Methods An experiment was conducted in a large and a small artificial climate chamber. 12 male right-handed university students were recruited. The experiment was divided into two parts, with 0-10 min as the baseline phase and 10-50 min as the test phase. Subjects sat quietly in a 16 ℃ large chamber, and hands were exposed to a small chamber at 0 ℃ either barely (control group) or with rescue gloves (experimental group). Skin temperatures of the five fingers (thumb, index finger, middle finger, ring finger, and little finger), as well as the dorsal and palm of the hands were measured. In addition, grip strength, manual dexterity, maximum finger flexion, and tactile sensitivity of the hands were measured as the indicators of manual performance. Results In the control group, cold-induced vasodilation occurred when the skin temperature of the five fingers were lowered to about 10 ℃. The maximum rate of change in skin temperature of the control group was in the following order: thumb＞index finger＞middle finger＞little finger＞ring finger＞dorsal＞palm, 165.7 ℃·h⁻¹ in the thumb, 80.0 and 89.9 ℃·h⁻¹ in the palm and dorsal respectively. In addition, the minimum skin temperature of the thumb was 6.6 ℃. Compared with the control group: the rate of change of skin temperature in the experimentalgroup decreased by about 50%; the grip strength decreased by 15% after wearing the rescue gloves (P<0.05); no differences in manual dexterity, maximum finger flexion, and tactile sensitivity were statistically significant (P>0.05). Conclusion This study proved that the rescue gloves improved the thermal comfort of hands while better balancing the effect of cold exposure on manual performance. The quantitative characterization methods can evaluate the protective performance and manual performance of the rescue gloves, which provides a reliable theoretical foundation and reference basis for further experiments.

Objective To evaluate the early imaging characteristics and function of bladder wall reconstruction neourethra(BWN)after robot-assisted laparoscopic prostatectomy(RALP)for prostate cancer with magnetic resonance imaging(MRI)and voiding cystourethrography(VCUG).Methods A total of 36 patients who underwent RALP using BWN technique at Taizhou People's Hospital during Mar.2021 and Jun.2023 were enrolled.Postoperative MRI was used to measure the length,wall thickness,and lumen shape of the new urethra.The morphology of the new urethra in 19 patients was observed under VCUG during the storage phase,voiding phase,and interrupted voiding phase.Results The patients'median age was 73.00 years(range:68.00 to 76.25),the prostate volume was(45.01±7.18)cm3,and the median total prostate-specific antigen(tPSA)level was 10.77 ng/mL(range:7.30 to 14.86).Two patients were classified as T1 stage,25 as T2,and 9 as T3.Gleason scores were ≤6 in 7 patients and ≥8 in 8 patients.Risk classification was low risk in 2 patients and high risk in 8 patients.Postoperatively,urinary control rates at 1,3,and 6 months were 91.67％,97.22％,and 100％,respectively.MRI revealed a median new urethra length of 15.13 mm(range:12.71 to 20.26)and a median wall thickness of 6.84 mm(range:6.18 to 8.20).The urethral lumen had a complete muscular layer and mucosal layer,which appeared petal-like.In patients with urinary incontinence,residual urine was visible in the new urethra and at the anastomosis site.Of the 19 patients who underwent VCUG,16 could close the new urethra during the storage and interrupted voiding phases,and open it during the voiding phase;3 could not close it well during the storage and interrupted voiding phases.Conclusion MRI and VCUG clearly demonstrate that the BWN technique can successfully create a new urethra with good functionality,which helps improve urinary control after RALP for prostate cancer.

Objective:To investigate the effects of different tube voltages combined with artificial intelligence reconstruction algorithm(CI)on the computed tomography(CT)imaging quality and radiation dose of chest phantom on the basis of the CT scan for an adult male simulated chest phantom(PH-N1).Methods:A 512-slice CT scanner of ultrahigh-end was adopted to conduct scan,and the images were divided into 70 kV group,80 kV group,100 kV group and 120 kV group according to different tube voltage.For 4 groups of CT scan images with different tube voltages,the 10%,30%,50%,70%and 90%CI were adopted to reconstruct 1mm thin layer image.The CT volume dose index(CTDIvol)and the dose-length product(DLP)of the scans of 4 groups were compared.The CT values and standard deviation(SD)values of the aorta,abdominal wall fat and erector spine muscle were measured.Two senior diagnostic physicians with more than 5 years of work experience independently and double-blindly evaluated the image quality by using 5-point scale.A Kappa consistency test was conducted.One-way analysis of variance was adopted to compare the differences of CT values and SD values of the tissues of image targets.The Friedman rank-sum test was adopted to compare the differences of subjective image qualities among different groups.Results:The differences of CTDIvol and DLP among 4 groups with different tube voltages were significant(F=1855.617,3996.118,P<0.05),respectively.Under 70 kV tube voltage,there were no significant differences in CT values of the aorta,abdominal wall fat and erector spine muscle,which were reconstructed by using 10%,30%,50%,70%and 90%CI(P>0.05),while the differences of SD values among them were statistically significant(F=32.267,53.327,14.873,P<0.05),respectively.Under the different tube voltages of 4 groups,which were reconstructed by 90%CI,the CT values of aorta,abdominal wall fat and erector spine muscle gradually decreased with decreasing of tube voltage,the differences were significant(F=139.899,2563.93,219.231,P<0.05),respectively.The consistency of subjective scores between two diagnostic physicians was better for each group of images(Kappa=0.712～0.869).Conclusion:Compared with 80 kV,90 kV and 120 kV images,the reconstructed images with 90%CI algorithm under 70 kV tube voltage can significantly reduce the radiation dose,and the images have a favorable signal-to-noise ratio at the same time.

Ankylosing spondylitis (AS) combined with lower cervical fracture is often categorized into unstable fracture, with a high incidence of neurological injury and a high rate of disability and morbidity. As factors such as shoulder occlusion may affect the accuracy of X-ray imaging diagnosis, it is often easily misdiagnosed at the primary diagnosis. Non-operative treatment has complications such as bone nonunion and the possibility of secondary neurological damage, while the timing, access and choice of surgical treatment are still controversial. Currently, there are no clinical practice guidelines for the treatment of AS combined with lower cervical fracture with or without dislocation. To this end, the Spinal Trauma Group of Orthopedics Branch of Chinese Medical Doctor Association organized experts to formulate Clinical guidelines for the treatment of ankylosing spondylitis combined with lower cervical fracture in adults ( version 2024) in accordance with the principles of evidence-based medicine, scientificity and practicality, in which 11 recommendations were put forward in terms of the diagnosis, imaging evaluation, typing and treatment, etc, to provide guidance for the diagnosis and treatment of AS combined with lower cervical fracture.

Objective To investigate the factors influencing prognosis in patients with acute myocardial infarction complicated with cardiogenic shock undergoing primary percutaneous coronary intervention(PPCI).Methods Patients with acute myocardial infarction complicated with cardiogenic shock who underwent PPCI at our hospital between January 2015 and December 2019 were enrolled.Clinical baseline characteristics,coronary angiography and PCI-related parameters,and mechanical support information were collected.The patients were followed up for one year and divided into survival and death groups based on their survival status within one year.Differences in various factors between the two groups were compared.Results A total of 40 patients were enrolled,including 26 in the survival group and 14 in the death group.There were no differences in baseline data,diagnosis,risk factors,and comorbidities between the two groups.The survival group had a lower heart rate and higher blood pressure trend at admission compared to the death group.Myocardial enzymes were significantly lower in the survival group compared to the death group(median CK peak:496.00(198.25,2 830.00)U/L vs.3 040.00(405.75,5 626.53)U/L,P=0.003;median CK-MB peak:52.65(31.75,219.50)U/L vs.306.00(27.25,489.63)U/L,P=0.006).When comparing coronary angiography and PCI-related indicators between the two groups,the survival group had a higher rate of complete revascularization compared to the control group(53.85％vs.21.43％,P=0.048).The survival group had a higher proportion of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation(ECMO)combined with intra-aortic balloon pump(IABP)support compared to the control group[38.46％vs.7.14％,P=0.034].Conclusions Survival in patients with acute myocardial infarction complicated with cardiogenic shock undergoing PPCI is associated with lower level of myocardial enzymes,ECMO combined with IABP support and complete revascularization.

Objective:To investigate the application of (4R)-4-(3-[ 18F]fluoranyl-5-fluorophenyl)-1-((3-methylpyridin-4-yl)methyl)pyrrolidin-2-one( 18F-SynVesT-1), a synaptic vesicle glycoprotein 2A (SV2A) radioactive tracer, in patients with Alzheimer′s disease (AD). Methods:A total of 20 AD patients (2 males, 18 females, age (66.4±8.1) years) with positive β-amyloid (Aβ) deposition and 20 normal controls (NC; 9 males, 11 females, age (62.6±8.6) years ) without Aβ deposition were retrospectively recruited from Huashan Hospital, Fudan University between December 2021 and December 2022. All of them underwent 18F-SynVesT-1 PET/MR and 18F-Florbetapir (AV45) PET/CT scans. Preprocessing of brain 18F-SynVesT-1 PET images was carried out using statistical parametric mapping (SPM). The differences of the uptke of 18F-SynVesT-1 (synaptic density) between two groups based on ROI were compared by using either the independent-sample t test or Mann-Whitney U test. Spearman rank correlation analysis was performed to assess the relationship between synaptic density and cognitive performance. For voxelwise analysis, a general linear model was constructed to analyze differences in synaptic density between the two groups using the independent-sample t test. Furthermore, a multiple linear regression model was developed to explore the relationship between synaptic density and cognitive performance. Results:Compared to the NC group, the AD group exhibited significant widespread reduction in synaptic density across the cortical regions ( P<0.05, false discovery rate (FDR)-corrected), particularly in the medial temporal lobe (0.84±0.09 vs 1.04±0.09; t=-6.95, P<0.001), lateral temporal lobe (1.15±0.13 vs 1.31±0.08; t=-4.56, P<0.001), and lateral parietal lobe (1.24(1.04, 1.26) vs 1.32(1.23, 1.39); z=-3.25, P=0.001). Moreover, synaptic density in extensive cortical regions showed a positive correlation with mini-mental state examination (MMSE) and Montreal cognitive assessment-basic (MoCA-B) scores ( P<0.05, FDR-corrected). Notably, significant associations were observed between MMSE and MoCA-B scores and synaptic density in the lateral temporal lobe ( rs values: 0.71, 0.74, both P<0.001) and medial temporal lobe ( rs values: 0.71, 0.74, both P<0.001). Conclusions:18F-SynVesT-1 PET imaging is a valuable tool for evaluating synaptic density, specifically in the context of AD. The observed widespread reduction in synaptic density across cortical regions of patients with AD are closely related to cognitive decline.
