文摘Multivitamins were widely used health supplements that replenished essential nutrients in the human body.Despite their popularity,the impact of multivitamins on the cognitive function of older adults remained unclear and contentious.This study offered a comprehensive review and meta-analysis of research published until June 2024,analyzing the effects of multivitamins on various cognitive functions in individuals aged 65 and older.We included ten randomized controlled trials encompassing 13,600 participants from multiple databases.These studies evaluated the impact of multivitamins on reasoning,memory,learning,visual perception,idea production,cognitive speed,psychomotor abilities,and higher cognitive functions.Our meta-analysis revealed that multivitamins significantly enhanced delayed free recall(SMD=0.09,95%confidence interval(CI)=[0.05,0.13],P=0.0001).However,they had no substantial effects on immediate free recall(SMD=0.85,95%CI=[-0.1,1.9],P=0.11),idea production(SMD=0.00,95%CI=[-0.04,0.03],P=0.86),or cognitive functioning(SMD=0.07,94%CI=[-0.07,0.14],P=0.006).Thus,while multivitamins facilitated delayed free recall,they did not significantly improve other cognitive functions in older adults.
文摘Background:Health benefits have been reported for many physical activity(PA)interventions for improving fundamental movement skills(FMS)and cognitive function(CF),but the most effective type of PA interventions for emhancing FMS and CF in early childhood remain unknown.Thus,the study aimed to determine the effects of PA interventions in enhancing FMS and CF among young children and to establish the optimal types of PA interventions.Methods:Six electronic databases(PubMed,OVID,SPORTDiscus,Scopus,Web of Science,and Cochrane)were searched for studies from inception to March 17,2024.Randomized controlled trials(RCTs)were included in this study if they reported outcomes related to FMS,CF,or both associated with PA interventions.Effect sizes were calculated and performed as Hedges'g.The hierarchy of competing interventions was established using the surface under the cumulative ranking curve(SUCRA).Risk of bias was independently assessed using the Cochrane Riskof-Bias 2.Results:This analysis included 38 studies with 5237 young children,with sample sizes ranging from 32 to 897 participants.The types of PA interventions analyzed included active play/free play/unstructured PA(AP),general structured PA(GSPA),FMS-targeted PA programs(FMSprograms),cognitively-engaging PA programs(CPA),multilevel PA interventions(MPA),and exergaming.PA interventions had a large,pooled effect size for total FMS(g=0.96;95%CI:0.45-1.46;p<0.01;I^(2)=94%).For CF,a small-to-moderate pooled effect size was found(g=0.39;95%CI:0.18-0.60;p<0.01;I^(2)=88%).PA interventions longer than 3 months showed fewer benefits for FMS(p<0.01).The network meta-analysis showed that FMS-programs(standardized mean difference((SMD)=1.55,95%CI:0.98-2.11,SUCRA=98.3%)and GSPA(SMD=0.94,95%CI:0.05-1.85,SUCRA=69.8%)significantly improved total FMS compared to AP.For locomotor skills(LMS),exergaming ranked highest(SUCRA=79.3%),followed by FMS-programs(75.9%)and GSPA(61.6%).However,despite its top ranking,exergaming's effect estimate was not statistically significant(SMD=1.38,95%CI:-0.08 to 2.85).For object control skills(OCS),exergaming again ranked highest(SUCRA=91.9%)and showed the largest significant effect(SMD=2.38,95%CI:0.96-3.80),followed by FMS-programs(SUCRA=78.5%)and GSPA(SUCRA=53.7%).FMS-programs,GSPA,MPA,and UC also significantly improved OCS compared to AP.While no significant differences were observed across PA interventions for most CF domains,exergaming had a significant positive effect on working memory(SMD=1.41,95%CI:0.07-2.75).The certainty of evidence varied from low to moderate.Conclusion:These findings emphasize the importance of PA interventions in improving FMS and CF in early childhood.FMS-programs and GSPA appear to be the most effective approaches for enhancing total FMS,while exergaming showed the highest ranking for LMS and OCS,with a significant impact on OCS but uncertainty in LMS improvements.Additionally,exergaming had a positive effect on working memory,suggesting its potential cognitive benefits.

文摘This study investigates the effects of ocean boundaries on modal shapes in very-low-frequency(VLF,1–10 Hz)sound propagation through the deep ocean.Utilizing a normal mode solution formulated in terms of parabolic cylinder functions(PCF),we demonstrate that boundary interactions induce a phase change reduction below-πat frequencies of several hertz.This reduction,in turn,forces a key transition in the solution,shifting the order of the PCF from integer to non-integer values.Analysis of the characteristic shape of the PCF versus its order reveals that these boundary-influenced modes exhibit an energy shift toward deeper regions and a weakened axial convergence of the underwater sound field.

文摘This study investigated the suppressive effects of Armoracia rusticana(AR)and its three main glucosinolates on both free and bound heterocyclic amines(HAs),along with their mechanisms of free radical quenching using density functional theory.Fish patties were supplemented with varying concentrations of AR(0.5%‒1.5%)and glucosinolates(0.005%‒0.015%),showing a dose-dependent inhibition of HAs and concurrent elimination of free radicals and HAs intermediates.Glucobrassicin demonstrated the highest reactivity,which was verified by frontier orbit analysis and conceptual density functional parameters,consistent with experimental findings.Furthermore,the O-H bond connected to the sulfur atom of glucobrassicin possessed the smallest bond dissociation enthalpy(BDE)value,which indicated that this particular hydrogen atom is most susceptible to react with free radicals.Overall,AR and its glucosinolates,especially glucobrassicin,show promise as natural additives for improving food safety and quality.

文摘When micro/nano-scale gradient coatings are subject to large thermal gradients or high heat fluxes,the spatial size effect cannot be ignored.It is important to understand how the size effect influences the thermal fracture behavior of functionally graded coating/substrate structures.This study aims at analyzing the transient thermal fracture behavior of collinear interface cracks in functionally graded coating/substrate structures based on the nonlocal dual-phase-lag heat conduction model.By means of integral transform techniques,the mixed boundary problem is transformed into a set of singular integral equations,which are solved by the Chebyshev polynomials.The effects of the nonlocal parameter,coating thickness,crack spacing,and non-homogeneous parameters on the temperature and stress intensity factors(SIFs)are examined.The numerical results show that these parameters play an essential role in controlling the thermal fracture behavior of the structures,especially at micro/nano-scales.

文摘Traumatic brain injury involves complex pathophysiological mechanisms,among which oxidative stress significantly contributes to the occurrence of secondary injury.In this study,we evaluated hypidone hydrochloride(YL-0919),a self-developed antidepressant with selective sigma-1 receptor agonist properties,and its associated mechanisms and targets in traumatic brain injury.Behavioral experiments to assess functional deficits were followed by assessment of neuronal damage through histological analyses and examination of blood-brain barrier permeability and brain edema.Next,we investigated the antioxidative effects of YL-0919 by assessing the levels of traditional markers of oxidative stress in vivo in mice and in vitro in HT22 cells.Finally,the targeted action of YL-0919 was verified by employing a sigma-1 receptor antagonist(BD-1047).Our findings demonstrated that YL-0919 markedly improved deficits in motor function and spatial cognition on day 3 post traumatic brain injury,while also decreasing neuronal mortality and reversing blood-brain barrier disruption and brain edema.Furthermore,YL-0919 effectively combated oxidative stress both in vivo and in vitro.The protective effects of YL-0919 were partially inhibited by BD-1047.These results indicated that YL-0919 relieved impairments in motor and spatial cognition by restraining oxidative stress,a neuroprotective effect that was partially reversed by the sigma-1 receptor antagonist BD-1047.YL-0919 may have potential as a new treatment for traumatic brain injury.
文摘Impairments on body function,activities of daily living(ADL)and cognition are common after stroke.Eccentric resistance training(ERT)may be implemented to improve them.The primary objectives were to evaluate whether ERT improves body function,ADL and cognition after stroke.The secondary objectives were to evaluate whether ERT improves strength,gait,quality of life,and self-perceived health.Seven electronic databases were searched:Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials,Cochrane Stroke Group Trials Register,PubMed,Epistemonikos,Embase,SPORTDiscus,and WHO International Clinical Trials Registry Platform.Last search was run in December 2023,including studies since 2012.Selection criteria were studies with stroke participants of both sexes,aged 18 or more,with an intervention based on ERT.Accepted languages were English,Spanish or French.First search was done in pairs.Authors removed duplicate studies and those which did not meet inclusion criteria through title and abstracts.Finally,all authors,independently,screened the final search results and extracted data.Of 68 records identified,15 were eligible and 6 were finally included(with moderate risk of bias),analyzing 159 participants.Body function(4 interventions,n=84),gait(4 interventions,n=115)and strength(3 interventions,n?78)showed significantly better results when ERT was performed.Meta-analysis could not be done because of the few studies and their heterogeneity.This review provided low-moderate quality evidence suggesting that ERT might be effective at improving body function,strength,and gait after stroke.Besides,no harm was documented,and it was well-accepted.

文摘BACKGROUND Overweight children exhibit a higher prevalence of functional gastrointestinal disorders compared with their normal-weight peers,yet the underlying reasons remain unclear.Gastrointestinal motility,a key pathophysiological factor in functional gastrointestinal disorders,may be influenced by body mass index(BMI).AIM To evaluate the impact of BMI on gastric motility parameters in children with functional abdominal pain disorders(FAPDs).METHODS We assessed gastric motility in 176 children with FAPDs(61.4%females,mean age 7.94 years,SD 1.96 years)and 63 healthy controls(57.1%females,mean age 9.17 years,SD 1.90 years)at the Gastroenterology Research Laboratory,University of Kelaniya,Sri Lanka.FAPDs were diagnosed and subtyped using the Rome IV criteria:Functional abdominal pain 97 patients;irritable bowel syndrome 39 patients,functional dyspepsia(FD)25 patients;and abdominal migraine 15 patients.Gastric motility was measured using a validated ultrasound method.Weight and height were measured using sensitive standard scales.RESULTS The BMIs of children with FAPDs and controls were 15.04 and 15.46 kg/m^(2),respectively(P=0.33).Fasting antral area(FAA)and antral area at 1 min(AA1)and 15 min(AA15)were significantly greater in patients with FAPD with a higher BMI(2.71 cm^(2),12.57 cm^(2),and 7.19 cm^(2),respectively)compared with those with a lower BMI(2.12 cm^(2),10.68 cm^(2),and 6.13 cm^(2),respectively)(P<0.01).BMI positively correlated with FAA and AA15(r=0.18 and r=0.19,respectively)(P<0.01)in those with FAPDs.In controls,only AA1 was greater in the higher BMI group(12.51 cm^(2)vs 9.93 cm^(2))and had a positive correlation(r=0.33)(P≤0.01).Subgroup analysis revealed that in patients with FD,BMI negatively correlated with gastric emptying rate(GER)(r=-0.59)and antral motility index(MI)(r=-0.49),while in functional abdominal pain,MI positively correlated(r=0.25)with BMI(P≤0.01).CONCLUSION In children with FAPDs,higher BMI was associated with increased gastric antral distention during fasting and postprandial periods(as indicated by FAA,AA1,and AA15)but not with contractility and transit(MI,GER).However,in the FD subgroup,high BMI correlated with reduced GER and MI.This indicates the possible role of BMI in gastric hypomotility and the pathophysiology of FD.These findings underscore the importance of lifestyle and dietary interventions aimed at optimizing BMI in the management of FAPDs,particularly FD.
文摘Background Acute myocardial infarction(AMI),one of the most critical cardiovascular emergencies,carries a high mortality rate due to progressive cardiac dysfunction caused by myocardial ischemia.Percutaneous coronary intervention(PCI)is an effective treatment for AMI,rapidly restoring blood flow,reducing myocardial injury,and mitigating adverse remodeling.However,reperfusion injury and ventricular remodeling post-PCI may still lead to heart failure.Recent studies highlighted the cardioprotective effects of sodium-glucose cotransporter-2(SGLT-2)inhibitors,particularly dapagliflozin,which improves myocardial energetics,reduces inflammation,and attenuates adverse remodeling.However,high-quality evidence on its early application following primary PCI in AMI re-mains limited.In this study,we aimed to evaluated the clinical utility of dapagliflozin in AMI management.Meth-ods This study retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of 100 patients with AMI undergoing emergency PCI ad-mitted to our hospital between June 2022 and June 2024.They were randomly divided into observation group(n=50)and control group(n=50).The control group received standard post-PCI medication(antiplatelet and lipid-low-ering therapy),while the observation group received additional dapagliflozin.Cardiac function parameters,serolog-ical markers,and the incidence of major adverse cardiovascular events(MACE)were compared between the two groups.Results After 14 days of treatment,observation group exhibited significantly lower left ventricular end-diastolic diameter(LVEDD)and left ventricular end-systolic diameter(LVESD)(P<0.05)and higher left ventricu-lar ejection fraction(LVEF)(P<0.05)compared to control group.Additionally,the level of myocardial injury mark-ers[creatine kinase-MB(CK-MB),cardiac troponin I(cTnI),and brain natriuretic peptide(BNP)]were significant-ly lower in observation group(P<0.05).However,there was no significant difference in the incidence of MACE be-tween the two groups(P>0.05).Conclusions The combination of dapagliflozin with standard post-PCI therapy improves cardiac function and reduces the level of myocardial injury markers in AMI patients,though it does not significantly affect the short-term incidence of adverse cardiovascular events.
文摘BACKGROUND Appendicitis is a common acute abdominal pain disorder.Laparoscopic appendectomy,a commonly used modality,is associated with less trauma and faster recovery than traditional open appendectomy.However,postoperative recovery remains an important issue that affects rehabilitation quality and surgical results.AIM To explore the effects of rapid rehabilitation and surgical nursing care on gastrointestinal function recovery and sleep quality among patients undergoing laparoscopic appendectomy.METHODS A total of 120 patients who underwent laparoscopic appendectomy at our hospital between January 2019 and March 2024 and for whom complete clinical data were available were selected.Patients were randomly assigned to two groups(n=60 each)using the random number table method.The control group received routine nursing care,while the experimental group received rapid rehabilitation surgical nursing care;all patients continued to receive nursing care until discharge.The recovery of gastrointestinal function,length of hospital stay,complications,Pittsburgh sleep quality index,and nursing satisfaction were compared between groups.RESULTS Following the implementation of effective nursing measures,the times to bowel sound recovery,first exhaust,first defecation,and first feeding were notably shorter in the study vs control group(P<0.05).Additionally,the duration of the first postoperative activity and the length of hospital stay were significantly shorter in the study vs control group(P<0.05).Furthermore,the study group exhibited better sleep quality than the control group(P<0.05).The postoperative complication rate was significantly lower and the nursing satisfaction rate significantly higher in the study vs control group(P<0.05).CONCLUSION Rapid rehabilitation surgical nursing interventions provided to patients after laparoscopic appendectomy can accelerate their postoperative recovery,reduce the occurrence of complications,and improve their sleep quality and nursing satisfaction.

文摘The current study aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Compound Danshen Dripping Pills(CDDP)in improving cardiac function in patients with acute anterior ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction(AAMI).Between February 2021 and February 2023,247 eligible patients with AAMI after primary percutaneous coronary intervention were enrolled and randomly assigned(1∶1)to receive CDDP(n=126)or placebo(n=121),with a follow-up of 48 weeks.Compared with the placebo group,the CDDP group demonstrated a significant increase in left ventricular ejection fraction values after 24 weeks of treatment(least squares mean:3.31;95%confidence interval[CI]:1.72–4.90;P<0.001)and at the 48-week follow-up(least squares mean:4.35;95%CI:2.76–5.94;P<0.001).Significant reductions in N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide levels were observed in both groups at the 24-and 48-week visits with no significant difference between the two groups(P>0.1 for all).The incidence of major adverse cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events was 6.35%in the CDDP group and 5.79%in the placebo group(P=0.822).Notably,no serious adverse events were attributed to CDDP.These findings suggest that CDDP may be well tolerated and could improve left ventricular ejection fraction in patients with AAMI at 24 and 48 weeks.
文摘Bifunctional Ir catalysts for proton exchange membrane(PEM)water electrolysis offer transformative potential by streamlining electrolyzer while achieving efficient performance remains challenging due to the distinct conditions required for oxygen and hydrogen evolution reaction(OER and HER).Herein,we propose a theory-directed design of Ir-based bifunctional catalysts,Ir nanoparticles supported on mesoporous carbon spheres embedded with MoSe_(2)(Ir/MoSe_(2)@MCS),leveraging a work function(WF)-induced spontaneous built-in electric field to enhance catalytic performance.They demonstrate exceptional kinetics for both OER and HER,and potential application in the practical PEM electrolyzer,showcasing the effectiveness of this innovative approach.Low overpotentials of 252 mV for OER and 28 mV for HER to drive 10 mA cm^(-2)were observed,and the PEM electrolyzer showed the current density of 2 A cm^(-2)at 1.87 V and maintained stable activity at 1.65 V for over 30 h to deliver 1 A cm^(-2).Density functional theory calculations reveal that the WF difference at Ir/MoSe_(2)interface induces a spontaneous built-in electric field with asymmetric charge distributions,that modulate the electronic environment and d-band center of Ir promoting bifunctional active phase formation.This significantly lowers reaction barriers for water splitting by balancing intermediate adsorption,endowing the bifunctional activity.

文摘In this article,the multi-parameters Mittag-Leffler function is studied in detail.As a consequence,a series of novel results such as the integral representation,series representation and Mellin transform to the above function,are obtained.Especially,we associate the multi-parameters Mittag-Leffler function with two special functions which are the generalized Wright hypergeometric and the Fox’s-H functions.Meanwhile,some interesting integral operators and derivative operators of this function,are also discussed.
文摘We have examined the theoretical implications of combining two main and three auxiliary ligands to form several Ir(Ⅲ)complexes featuring a transition metal as their core atom to identify some appropriate organic lightemitting diode(OLED)materials.By utilizing electronic structure,frontier molecular orbitals,minimum single-line absorption,triplet excited states,and emission spectral data derived from the density functional theory,the usefulness of these Ir(Ⅲ)complexes,including(piq)_(2)Ir(acac),(piq)_(2)Ir(tmd),(piq)_(2)Ir(tpip),(fpiq)_(2)Ir(acac),(fpiq)_(2)Ir(tmd),and(fpiq)_(2)Ir(tpip),in OLEDs was examined,where piq=1-phenylisoquinoline,fpiq=1-(4-fluorophenyl)isoquinoline,acac=(3Z)-4-hydroxypent-3-en-2-one,tmd=(4Z)-5-hydroxy-2,2,6,6-tetramethylhept-4-en-3-one,and tpip=tetraphenylimido-diphosphonate.These complexes all have low-efficiency roll-off properties,especially(fpiq)_(2)Ir(tpip).Some researchers have successfully synthesized complexes extremely similar to(piq)_(2)Ir(acac)through the Suzuki-Miyaura coupling reaction.

文摘We investigate dark solitons lying on elliptic function background in the defocusing Hirota equation with third-order dispersion and self-steepening terms.By means of the modified squared wavefunction method,we obtain the Jacobi's elliptic solution of the defocusing Hirota equation,and solve the related linear matrix eigenvalue problem on elliptic function background.The elliptic N-dark soliton solution in terms of theta functions is constructed by the Darboux transformation and limit technique.The asymptotic dynamical behaviors for the elliptic N-dark soliton solution as t→±∞are studied.Through numerical plots of the elliptic one-,two-and three-dark solitons,the amplification effect on the velocity of elliptic dark solitons,and the compression effect on the soliton spatiotemporal distributions produced by the third-order dispersion and self-steepening terms are discussed.
文摘BACKGROUND Mild cognitive impairment(MCI)is a high-risk precursor to Alzheimer’s disease characterized by declining memory or other progressive cognitive functions without compromising daily living abilities.AIM To investigate the efficacy of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation(rTMS)in patients with MCI.METHODS This retrospective analysis involved 180 patients with MCI who were admitted to The First Hospital of Shanxi Medical University from January 2021 to June 2023.Participants were allocated into the research(n=98,receiving rTMS)and control groups(n=82,receiving sham stimulation).Memory tests,cognitive function assessments,event-related potential–P300 tests,and electroencephalogram(EEG)examinations were conducted pre-treatment and post-treatment.Further,memory quotient(MQ),cognitive function scores,and EEG grading results were compared,along with adverse reaction incidences.RESULTS Pre-treatment MQ scores,long-term and short-term memory,as well as immediate memory scores,demonstrated no notable differences between the groups.Post-treatment,the research group exhibited significant increases in MQ scores,long-term memory,and short-term memory compared to baseline(P<0.05),with these improvements being statistically superior to those in the control group.However,immediate memory scores exhibited no significant change(P>0.05).Further,the research group demonstrated statistically better post-treatment scores on the Revised Wechsler Memory Scale than the control group.Furthermore,post-treatment P300 latency and amplitude improved significantly in the research group,surpassing the control group.EEG grading in the research group improved,and the incidence of adverse reactions was significantly lower than in the control group.CONCLUSION Patients with MCI receiving rTMS therapy demonstrated improved memory and cognitive functions and EEG grading and exhibited high safety with fewer adverse reactions.
