While people with borderline personality disorder use emergency services frequently, clinicians often face difficulties when providing medical and behavioral services to these patients. It may be difficult for nurse practitioners to determine if a patient with BPD who presents to the ED in crisis should be admitted, medicated, observed, or discharged. Self-harm is frequently confused with suicide attempts, which can result in unnecessary hospitalizations. This case study seeks to examine the proper management and difficulties encountered by healthcare providers in managing crises involving individuals with BPD in ED settings. The case study underscores the significance of thorough evaluation, recognition of BPD characteristics, active engagement in treatment, the therapeutic alliance, and the emphasis on interpersonal connections and stressors alongside the utilization of psychopharmacology.展开更多

文摘Hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC)recurrence after liver transplantation(LT)presents a significant challenge,with recurrence rates ranging from 8%to 20%globally.Current biomarkers,such as alpha-fetoprotein(AFP)and des-gamma-carboxy prothrombin(DCP),lack specificity,limiting their utility in risk strati-fication.YKL-40,a glycoprotein involved in extracellular matrix remodeling,hepatic stellate cell activation,and immune modulation,has emerged as a promising biomarker for post-LT surveillance.Elevated serum levels of YKL-40 are associated with advanced liver disease,tumor progression,and poorer post-LT outcomes,highlighting its potential to address gaps in early detection and personalized management of HCC recurrence.This manuscript synthesizes clinical and mechanistic evidence to evaluate YKL-40’s predictive utility in post-LT care.While preliminary findings demonstrate its specificity for liver-related pathologies,challenges remain,including assay standardization,lack of pro-spective validation,and the need to distinguish between malignant and non-malignant causes of elevated levels.Integrating YKL-40 into multi-biomarker panels with AFP and DCP could enhance predictive accuracy and enable tailored therapeutic strategies.Future research should focus on multicenter studies to validate YKL-40’s clinical utility,address confounding factors like graft rejection and systemic inflammation,and explore its role in predictive models driven by emerging technologies such as artificial intelligence.YKL-40 holds transformative potential in reshaping post-LT care through precision medicine,providing a pathway for better outcomes and improved management of high-risk LT recipients.

文摘The requirement for precise detection and recognition of target pedestrians in unprocessed real-world imagery drives the formulation of person search as an integrated technological framework that unifies pedestrian detection and person re-identification(Re-ID).However,the inherent discrepancy between the optimization objectives of coarse-grained localization in pedestrian detection and fine-grained discriminative learning in Re-ID,combined with the substantial performance degradation of Re-ID during joint training caused by the Faster R-CNN-based branch,collectively constitutes a critical bottleneck for person search.In this work,we propose a cascaded person searchmodel(SeqXt)based on SeqNet and ConvNeXt that adopts a sequential end-to-end network as its core architecture,artfully integrates the design logic of the two-stepmethod and one-step method framework,and concurrently incorporates the two-step method’s advantage in efficient subtask handling while preserving the one-step method’s efficiency in end-toend training.Firstly,we utilize ConvNeXt-Base as the feature extraction module,which incorporates part of the design concept of Transformer,enhances the consideration of global context information,and boosts feature discrimination through an implicit self-attention mechanism.Secondly,we introduce prototype-guided normalization for calibrating the feature distribution,which leverages the archetype features of individual identities to calibrate the feature distribution and thereby prevents features from being overly inclined towards frequently occurring IDs,notably improving the intra-class compactness and inter-class separability of person identities.Finally,we put forward an innovative loss function named the Dynamic Online Instance Matching Loss Function(DOIM),which employs the hard sample assistantmethod to adaptively update the lookup table(LUT)and the circular queue(CQ)and aims to further enhance the distinctiveness of features between classes.Experimental results on the public datasets CUHK-SYSU and PRWand the private dataset UESTC-PS show that the proposed method achieves state-of-the-art results.
文摘This study investigated the political,economic,social,and cultural environment perceptions on international students that define their acculturation and health related quality of life.Participants were 117 international students from 32 countries attending a Chinese university(females=43%,mean age=21.17 years,SD=4.45 years).They reported on their acculturation to China and physical and psychological well-being.Results from t-tests and correlation analyses indicate political liberals had more positive attitudes toward China than the conservatives,and higher self-reported physical and psychological results.Higher scores on the“interdependence”dimension of self-construal,as well as the“extraversion”and“emotional stability”dimensions of personality traits,were associated with more positive views of China and better health outcomes.These findings are consistent with Berry’s framework for acculturation,which posits that individual-level variables are related to cultural adaptation,and that cultural adaptation is associated with improved physical and mental health.International student offices at host universities should implement comprehensive support programs,including language assistance,cultural orientation,and social integration initiatives to effectively enhance the health related quality of life of international students.

文摘Social media outlets deliver customers a medium for communication,exchange,and expression of their thoughts with others.The advent of social networks and the fast escalation of the quantity of data have created opportunities for textual evaluation.Utilising the user corpus,characteristics of social platform users,and other data,academic research may accurately discern the personality traits of users.This research examines the traits of consumer personalities.Usually,personality tests administered by psychological experts via interviews or self-report questionnaires are costly,time-consuming,complex,and labour-intensive.Currently,academics in computational linguistics are increasingly focused on predicting personality traits from social media data.An individual’s personality comprises their traits and behavioral habits.To address this distinction,we propose a novel LSTMapproach(BERT-LIWC-LSTM)that simultaneously incorporates users’enduring and immediate personality characteristics for textual personality recognition.Long-termPersonality Encoding in the proposed paradigmcaptures and represents persisting personality traits.Short-termPersonality Capturing records changing personality states.Experimental results demonstrate that the designed BERT-LIWC-LSTM model achieves an average improvement in accuracy of 3.41% on the Big Five dataset compared to current methods,thereby justifying the efficacy of encoding both stable and dynamic personality traits simultaneously through long-and short-term feature interaction.

文摘Changing a person’s posture and low resolution are the key challenges for person re-identification(ReID)in various deep learning applications.In this paper,we introduce an innovative architecture using a dual attention network that includes an attentionmodule and a joint measurement module of spatial-temporal information.The proposed approach can be classified into two main tasks.Firstly,the spatial attention feature map is formed by aggregating features in the spatial dimension.Additionally,the same operation is carried out on the channel dimension to formchannel attention featuremaps.Therefore,the receptive field size is adjusted adaptively tomitigate the changing person posture issue.Secondly,we use a joint measurement method for the spatial-temporal information to fully harness the data,and it can also naturally integrate the information into the visual features of supervised ReID and hence overcome the low resolution problem.The experimental results indicate that our proposed algorithm markedly improves the accuracy in addressing changing human postures and low-resolution issues compared with contemporary leading techniques.The proposed method shows superior outcomes on widely recognized benchmarks,which are the Market-1501,MSMT17,and DukeMTMC-reID datasets.Furthermore,the proposed algorithmattains a Rank-1 accuracy of 97.4% and 94.9% mAP(mean Average Precision)on the Market-1501 dataset.Moreover,it achieves a 94.2% Rank-1 accuracy and 91.8% mAP on the DukeMTMC-reID dataset.
文摘Diabetes mellitus(DM)comprises distinct subtypes-including type 1 DM,type 2 DM,and gestational DM-all characterized by chronic hyperglycemia and sub-stantial morbidity.Conventional diagnostic and therapeutic strategies often fall short in addressing the complex,multifactorial nature of DM.This review ex-plores how multi-omics integration enhances our mechanistic understanding of DM and informs emerging personalized therapeutic approaches.We consolidated genomic,transcriptomic,proteomic,metabolomic,and microbiomic data from major databases and peer-reviewed publications(2015-2025),with an emphasis on clinical relevance.Multi-omics investigations have identified convergent mole-cular networks underlyingβ-cell dysfunction,insulin resistance,and diabetic complications.The combination of metabolomics and microbiomics highlights critical interactions between metabolic intermediates and gut dysbiosis.Novel biomarkers facilitate early detection of DM and its complications,while single-cell multi-omics and machine learning further refine risk stratification.By dissecting DM heterogeneity more precisely,multi-omics integration enables targeted in-terventions and preventive strategies.Future efforts should focus on data har-monization,ethical considerations,and real-world validation to fully leverage multi-omics in addressing the global DM burden.
