Network modeling of problematic social media use components in college student social media users.

Background: While the constitutive features of problematic social media use (PSMU) have been formulated, there has been a lack of studies in the field examining the structure of relationships among PSMU components.

Method: This study employed network analytic methods to investigate the connectivity among PSMU components in a large sample of 1,136 college student social media users ( = 19.69, = 1.

Emodin attenuates hypoxic-ischemic brain damage by inhibiting neuronal apoptosis in neonatal mice.

Neonatal hypoxic-ischemic brain damage (HIBD) can lead to mortality and severe neurological dysfunction. Emodin is a natural anthraquinone derivative that is easy to obtain and has good neuroprotective effects. This study aimed to investigate the neuroprotective effect of emodin on neonatal mouse HIBD.

Correlation of serum circulating testosterone levels with stress urinary incontinence in postmenopausal women.

Objectives: Our study aimed to elucidate the possible relationship between endogenous circulating testosterone and the beginning and development of stress urinary incontinence (SUI) in postmenopausal women.

Patients And Methods: The clinical data of female patients with SUI who underwent surgery at our hospital from January 2014 to February 2023 and healthy female volunteers recruited during the same period were retrospectively analyzed according to age and body mass index (BMI). Venous blood samples were taken from all subjects, and levels of estradiol, luteinizing hormone, prolactin, follicle-stimulating hormone, progesterone, and testosterone were measured by radioimmunoassay.

A modified sling mid-urethral suspension + subcutaneous tunnel-double point fixation technique for male stress urinary incontinence: a pilot study.

Objectives: The aim of this study was to demonstrate the feasibility of a modified sling mid-urethral suspension + subcutaneous tunnel-double point fixation technique for the treatment of male urinary incontinence and to preliminarily evaluate the short-term clinical efficacy of this technique.

Patients And Methods: The clinical data of patients treated with the modified sling mid-urethral suspension + subcutaneous tunnel-double point fixation technique using a Pelvimesh pelvic floor repair patch as a sling were collected. The primary evaluation criteria were surgery-related indicators and daily urinal pad usage before and after treatment, and the secondary evaluation criteria were the corresponding incontinence scores and the results of surgery-related questionnaires.

Modified Sling Midurethral Suspension+Hemolock Fixation Technique for Male Urinary Incontinence: A Pilot Study.

Objective: To demonstrate the feasibility of a modified midurethral sling+hemolock fixation technique for treating male urinary incontinence. This study aims to provide a preliminary assessment of the short-term clinical efficacy of this technique.

Methods: We collected the clinical data of patients treated with modified sling midurethral suspension+ hemolock fixation technique.

Combined model of radiomics and clinical features for differentiating pneumonic-type mucinous adenocarcinoma from lobar pneumonia: An exploratory study.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to distinguish pneumonic-type mucinous adenocarcinoma (PTMA) from lobar pneumonia (LP) by pre-treatment CT radiological and clinical or radiological parameters.

Methods: A total of 199 patients (patients diagnosed with LP = 138, patients diagnosed with PTMA = 61) were retrospectively evaluated and assigned to either the training cohort ( = 140) or the validation cohort ( = 59). Radiomics features were extracted from chest CT plain images.

Neuroprotective Mechanism of Icariin on Hypoxic Ischemic Brain Damage in Neonatal Mice.

Objective: Our previous results showed that icariin (ICA) could inhibit apoptosis and provide neuroprotection against hypoxic-ischemic brain damage (HIBD) in neonatal mice, but the specific mechanism of its neuroprotective effect remains unknown. This study aims at exploring whether ICA plays a neuroprotective role in apoptosis inhibition by regulating autophagy through the estrogen receptor (ER)/estrogen receptor (ER) pathway in neonatal mice with HIBD.

Methods: A neonatal mouse model of HIBD was constructed in vivo, and an oxygen and glucose deprivation (OGD) model in HT22 cells from the hippocampal neuronal system was constructed in vitro.
