Objective: To conduct a scoping review on the types, construction methods and predictive performance of health literacy prediction models based on machine learning methods, so as to provide the reference for the improvement and application of such models. Methods: Publications on health literacy prediction models conducted using machine learning methods were retrieved from CNKI, Wanfang Data, VIP, PubMed and Web of Science from inception to May 1, 2024. The quality of literature was assessed using the Prediction Model Risk of Bias ASsessment Tool. Basic characteristics, modeling methods, data sources, missing value handling, predictors and predictive performance were reviewed. Results: A total of 524 publications were retrieved, and 22 publications between 2007 and 2024 were finally enrolled. Totally 48 health literacy prediction models were involved, and 25 had a high risk of bias (52.08%), with major issues focusing on missing value handling, predictor selection and model evaluation methods. Modeling methods included regression models, tree-based machine learning methods, support vector machines and neural network models. Predictors primarily encompassed factors at four aspects: individual, interpersonal, organizational and society/policy aspects, with age, educational level, economic status, health status and internet use appearing frequently. Internal validation was conducted in 14 publications, and external validation was conducted in 4 publications. Forty-two models reported the areas under the receiver operating characteristic curve, which ranged from 0.52 to 0.983, indicating good discrimination. Conclusion Health literacy prediction models based on machine learning methods perform well, but have deficiencies in risk of bias, data processing and validation.

Abstract Health literate schools (HeLit-Schools) play a significant role in fostering students health literacy. The paper elucidates the background and conceptual connotations of HeLit-Schools, and analyzes how HeLit-Schools effectively integrate and enhance the health literacy of schools in three aspects: philosophy and core drivers, strategy and method implementation, as well as evaluation mechanisms and standard setting. Furthermore, the paper explores the implications of foreign HeLit-Schools research and practice for China under the context of "Healthy China" construction, as well as the key strategies for Chinese schools in the implementation of HeLit-Schools, aiming to provide a new perspective and theoretical support for Chinese schools to practice the "Healthy China initiative" and strengthen school construction from the perspective of health literacy.

[Objective]To present a case of complete androgen insensitivity syndrome (CAIS) coexisting with Müllerian duct remnants (MDR) and to review previous reports in the literature to enhance the understanding of the clinical manifestations and pathophysiology of CAIS.[Methods]The study aimed to diagnose complete androgen insensitivity syndrome (CAIS) by conducting physical examinations,chromosomal analysis,whole exome sequencing,laboratory tests including follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH),luteinizing hormone (LH),total testosterone,estradiol,anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH),inhibin B,dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate (DHEAS),androstenedione,17-hydroxyprogesterone,and imaging studies such as pelvic ultrasound and pelvic magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Laparoscopy revealed the presence of Müllerian duct structures. Additionally,the study reviewed similar cases of CAIS combined with Müllerian duct remnants reported in the literature.[Results]The child presented with female phenotype,elevated levels of FSH,LH,and testosterone. Pelvic MRI showed bilateral cryptorchidism without visible uterus or fallopian tubes. The chromosomal karyotype was 46,XY,and whole exome sequencing identified a pathogenic variant in the androgen receptor (AR) gene,c.2359C>T (p.Arg787*). No abnormalities were found in the AMH and AMHR2 gene tests. Laparoscopic exploration revealed underdeveloped testes and an underdeveloped uterus. Pathology showed the presence of fallopian tube-like structures next to the testicles. A total of 11 cases with genetically confirmed diagnosis of CAIS coexisting with MDR were retrieved from the database. The findings suggest that the initial clinical presentation,biochemical data,and gonadal pathology of CAIS with MDR are similar to those without MDR.[Conclusion]The study reports a patient with CAIS coexisting with MDR,which broadens the clinical spectrum of CAIS and provides a perspective for basic research on Müllerian duct regression that is independent of the AMH-AMHR2 signaling pathway.

Abstract As dietary issues of children and adolescents become increasingly complex, the assessment of food literacy (FL) is increasingly importance. FL involves a comprehensive cognition and practical ability concerning food among children, playing a key role in fostering healthy eating habits and improving health levels. The article explores the definition and connotations of FL, and introduces eight FL assessment tools in terms of theoretical foundations, dimensions, assessment methods, and their reliability and validity. Moreover, it provides a comparative analysis of these tools by examining their dimensional design, evaluation indicators, strengths, and weaknesses, as well as their applicable subjects and scenarios, aiming to offer references for implementing relevant policies and developing more comprehensive and effective FL assessment tools.

Objective:To analyze the medication law of Professor Li Fazhi in the prescriptions for the treatment of cough; To explore his academic thoughts.Methods:Medical cases of Professor Li about the treatment for cough from January 1, 2015 to October 31, 2022 were collected. Excel2016 and R language 4.2.1 were used to conduct multidimensional analysis on property and taste, and meridians of drugs. High-frequency efficacy classification was explored through factor analysis, clustering analysis was conducted to distinguish drug groups, and time-lapse analysis on proportion and meridian was conducted on high-frequency drugs.Results:4 746 prescriptions involved 270 kinds of Chinese materia medica, with a total frequency of 57 700 times. The most common property and taste was warm, followed by cold. Warm medicines were mainly pungent warm and cold warm, and cold medicines were mainly pungent cold, sweet cold and bitter cold, and the main meridians were lung, spleen, stomach, and liver meridians. The top 35 kinds of Chinese materia medica with frequency could be clustered into 9 groups. Group 1: Perillae Fructus, Armeniacae Semen Amarum and Ephedrae Herba; group 2: Magnoliae Flosmagnoliae Flos, Cicadae Periostracum and Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma; group 3: Peucedani Radix, Platycodonis Radix, Mori Cortex, Schizonepetae Herba, Saposhnikoviae Radix and Farfarae Flos; group 4: Angelicae Dahuricae Radix, Notopterygii Rhizoma et Radix, Citri Reticulatae Pericarpium, Astragali Radix, Cimicifugae Rhizoma and Coptidis Rhizoma; group 5: Coicis Semen, Phragmitis Rhizoma, Persicae Semen and Benincasae Semen; group 6: Perillae Folium; group 7: Bupleuri Radix, Mume Fructus, Aurantii Fructus Immaturus, Scutellariae Radix and Paeoniae Radix Alba; group 8: Asari Radix et Rhizoma, Cinnamomi Ramulus, Zingiberis Rhizoma, Schisandrae Chinensis Fructus and Pinelliae Rhizoma Praeparatum cum Alumine; group 9: Poria and Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma Praeparata cum Melle. The time-lapse analysis showed that the proportion of drugs used in the past three years such as Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma Praeparata cum Melle, Poria and Aurantii Fructus was gradually increasing.Conclusions:Professor Li's treatment of cough focuses on the lungs, spleen, and stomach. Clinical medication emphasizes the combination of ascending and descending factors, as well as the use of cold and warm.

Objective:To explore the latent profile types of capability-opportunity-motivation-behavior in stroke patients and analyze the influencing factors of different latent profiles.Methods:From January to October 2023, totally 596 stroke patients from the Neurology Department of five ClassⅢ Grade A hospitals in Henan Province were selected by stratified random sampling. The patients were surveyed using a general information questionnaire, the Stroke Prevention Knowledge Questionnaire (SPKQ), the Social Support Rating Scale (SSRS), the WHO's Quality of Life Questionnaire- Brief Version (WHOQOL-BREF), the Short Form Health Belief Model Scale (SF-HBMS), and the Health Promoting Lifestyle ProfileⅡ (HPLPⅡ). Latent profile analysis was used to classify the capability-opportunity-motivation-behavior characteristics of stroke patients, and multiple logistic regression was conducted to explore the influencing factors of different latent profiles.Results:Three latent profiles of capability-opportunity-motivation-behavior in stroke patients were identified, including low capability-opportunity-motivation-behavior with high health beliefs (32.4%, 193/596), moderate capability-opportunity-motivation-behavior with insufficient health beliefs (47.5%, 283/596), and high capability-opportunity-motivation-behavior with lack of social support (20.1%, 120/596). Multiple logistic regression analysis showed that educational level, smoking history, family history, body mass index, and Charlson Comorbidity Index score were influencing factors of different latent profiles ( P<0.05) . Conclusions:Stroke patients exhibit distinct classifications of capability-opportunity-motivation-behavior. Targeted interventions should be conducted based on the characteristics of each category to improve health behavior management outcomes in patients.

Objective:To explore the mediating effect of rumination between self-perceived burden (SPB) and stigma in stroke patients, so as to provide theoretical basis for the development of targeted nursing interventions in clinical practice.Methods:In September 2022, cluster sampling was used to select 1 126 stroke patients admitted to Department of Neurology of five ClassⅢ Grade A hospitals in Henan Province as subjects. General Information Questionnaire, Self-Perceived Burden Scale (SPBS), Stroke Stigma Scale (SSS), and Chinese Version of Event Related Rumination Inventory (C-ERRI) were used to investigate stroke patients. Pearson correlation analysis was used to explore the correlation between SPB, rumination, and stigma. AMOS 28.0 software was used to establish the structural equation model, and Bootstrap method was used to test the mediating effect.Results:A total of 1 126 questionnaires were distributed, and 1 026 valid questionnaires were collected, with a valid response rate of 91.12% (1 026/1 126). SPBS score of 1 026 stroke patients was (28.68±8.32), the SSS score was (40.53±9.48) and the C-ERRI score was (25.43±12.62). Pearson correlation analysis showed that SPB in stroke patients was positively correlated with stigma and rumination ( P<0.01), and rumination was positively correlated with stigma ( P<0.01). Bootstrap mediating effect test showed that rumination partially mediated the relationship between SPB and stigma in stroke patients, accounting for 55.15% of the total effect. Conclusions:SPB of stroke patients both directly affect stigma and indirectly affect stigma through rumination. Clinical nursing workers should promptly evaluate patients' SPB, pay attention to the mediating role of rumination, develop effective psychological intervention programs, implement personalized and targeted nursing measures, relieve patients' stigma, and improve treatment and rehabilitation compliance.

Objective:To understand the research status and hotspots in the field of stroke health management at home and abroad, and to provide insights for stroke health management research in China.Methods:Relevant literature on stroke health management published between 2013 and 2023 was retrieved from the Web of Science Core Collection and China National Knowledge Infrastructure databases. CiteSpace 6.1.R6 was used for the visual analysis of the number of publications, authors, institutions, countries, and keywords.Results:A total of 382 relevant articles were included, with 169 in English and 213 in Chinese. The number of publications on stroke health management showed a fluctuating upward trend. Research hotspots and frontiers in stroke health management mainly focused on telemedicine, big data and "Internet+", primary and secondary prevention, risk prediction models, quality of life, and swallowing disorders. Future research trends may focus on management models for post-stroke swallowing disorders, risk identification, and the role of caregivers in remote rehabilitation interventions.Conclusions:Researchers can refer to the research hotspots and trends shown by the visual analysis, with particular attention to health management models for patients with post-stroke swallowing disorders and issues related to remote intervention rehabilitation.

Objective: To analyze the prevalence and the risk factors of fungal sepsis in 25 neonatal intensive care units (NICU) among preterm infants in China, and to provide a basis for preventive strategies of fungal sepsis. Methods: This was a second-analysis of the data from the "reduction of infection in neonatal intensive care units using the evidence-based practice for improving quality" study. The current status of fungal sepsis of the 24 731 preterm infants with the gestational age of <34⁺⁰ weeks, who were admitted to 25 participating NICU within 7 days of birth between May 2015 and April 2018 were retrospectively analyzed. These preterm infants were divided into the fungal sepsis group and the without fungal sepsis group according to whether they developed fungal sepsis to analyze the incidences and the microbiology of fungal sepsis. Chi-square test was used to compare the incidences of fungal sepsis in preterm infants with different gestational ages and birth weights and in different NICU. Multivariate Logistic regression analysis was used to study the outcomes of preterm infants with fungal sepsis, which were further compared with those of preterm infants without fungal sepsis. The 144 preterm infants in the fungal sepsis group were matched with 288 preterm infants in the non-fungal sepsis group by propensity score-matched method. Univariate and multivariate Logistic regression analysis were used to analyze the risk factors of fungal sepsis. Results: In all, 166 (0.7%) of the 24 731 preterm infants developed fungal sepsis, with the gestational age of (29.7±2.0) weeks and the birth weight of (1 300±293) g. The incidence of fungal sepsis increased with decreasing gestational age and birth weight (both P<0.001). The preterm infants with gestational age of <32 weeks accounted for 87.3% (145/166). The incidence of fungal sepsis was 1.0% (117/11 438) in very preterm infants and 2.0% (28/1 401) in extremely preterm infants, and was 1.3% (103/8 060) in very low birth weight infants and 1.7% (21/1 211) in extremely low birth weight infants, respectively. There was no fungal sepsis in 3 NICU, and the incidences in the other 22 NICU ranged from 0.7% (10/1 397) to 2.9% (21/724), with significant statistical difference (P<0.001). The pathogens were mainly Candida (150/166, 90.4%), including 59 cases of Candida albicans and 91 cases of non-Candida albicans, of which Candida parapsilosis was the most common (41 cases). Fungal sepsis was independently associated with increased risk of moderate to severe bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) (adjusted OR 1.52, 95%CI 1.04-2.22, P=0.030) and severe retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) (adjusted OR 2.55, 95%CI 1.12-5.80, P=0.025). Previous broad spectrum antibiotics exposure (adjusted OR=2.50, 95%CI 1.50-4.17, P<0.001), prolonged use of central line (adjusted OR=1.05, 95%CI 1.03-1.08, P<0.001) and previous total parenteral nutrition (TPN) duration (adjusted OR=1.04, 95%CI 1.02-1.06, P<0.001) were all independently associated with increasing risk of fungal sepsis. Conclusions: Candida albicans and Candida parapsilosis are the main pathogens of fungal sepsis among preterm infants in Chinese NICU. Preterm infants with fungal sepsis are at increased risk of moderate to severe BPD and severe ROP. Previous broad spectrum antibiotics exposure, prolonged use of central line and prolonged duration of TPN will increase the risk of fungal sepsis. Ongoing initiatives are needed to reduce fungal sepsis based on these risk factors.
