Purpose: During the period of COVID-19 pandemic, the social restrictions and isolation exerted a significant impact on the sleep quality of Chinese college students. This study aims to delve into the influence of physical activity on the sleep quality of college students as well as the mediating roles of stress and smartphone addiction. Materials and Methods: A cohort of 274 eligible college students (146 males and 128 females) were selected for the investigation. The International Physical Activity Questionnaire Short Form, Stress Perception Scale, Smartphone Addiction Scale, and Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index were employed to assess the levels of physical activity, stress, smartphone addiction, and sleep quality among college students. For data analysis, descriptive statistics, correlation analysis, and chained mediation effect tests were performed sequentially. Results: The findings revealed: (1) a significant negative correlation between physical activity and stress, smartphone addiction, and sleep quality among college students (r = -0.216, p < 0.001; r = -0.224, p < 0.001; r = -0.259, p < 0.001); (2) independent mediating roles of stress and smartphone addiction in the relationship between physical activity and sleep quality; and (3) chained mediating effects of stress and smartphone addiction in the association between physical activity and sleep quality. Conclusion: This study deepens our comprehension of how physical activity augments the quality of slumber, concurrently emphasizing that mitigating stress levels and alleviating smartphone addiction constitute effective strategies for preventing sleep issues among college students.

Spatial patterns of urban expansion and cropland loss during 2017-2022 in Guangdong, China.

Urban expansion often occurs at the expense of cropland loss, posing challenges to sustainable urban growth and food security. However, detailed investigations into urban expansion and cropland loss remain limited, particularly in regions with varying levels of urbanization. Here, we take Guangdong Province, China, as a case study to exemplify how urban expansion affects cropland using remotely sensed land use products. We adopted geospatial analysis, correlation indicators, and landscape metrics to uncover their spatial relationships at 10-m spatial resolutions. Results showed that urban areas increased by 6335 km2 while cropland decreased by 3780 km2 from 2017 to 2022. Notably, 41 % of newly expanded urban areas were from croplands, and 45 % of lost croplands were converted to urban areas. Western Guangdong experienced the largest extent of urban expansion and cropland loss, emerging as a hotspot region in recent years. Additionally, our analysis observed the increasing compactness of urban areas and the growing fragmentation of cropland landscapes over time. These findings shed light on the intricate dynamics between urban expansion and cropland loss in rapidly urbanizing regions, which provide valuable insights for sustainable urban development, agricultural practice, and land management in the future.

scVSC: Deep variational subspace clustering for single-cell transcriptome data.

Single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) is a potent advancement for analyzing gene expression at the individual cell level, allowing for the identification of cellular heterogeneity and subpopulations. However, it suffers from technical limitations that result in sparse and heterogeneous data. Here, we propose scVSC, an unsupervised clustering algorithm built on deep representation neural networks. The method incorporates the variational inference into the subspace model, which imposes regularization constraints on the latent space and further prevents overfitting. In a series of experiments across multiple datasets, scVSC outperforms existing state-of-the-art unsupervised and semi-supervised clustering tools regarding clustering accuracy and running efficiency. Moreover, the study indicates that scVSC could visually reveal the state of trajectory differentiation, accurately identify differentially expressed genes, and further discover biologically critical pathways.

CD20highCD138low tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes predominantly related to cytokine‒cytokine receptor interactions are associated with favorable outcomes in neuroblastoma patients.

Recent advances have revealed that the role of the immune system is prominent in the antitumor response. In the present study, it is aimed to provide an expression profile of tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs), including mature B cells, plasma cells, and their clinical relevance in neuroblastoma. The expression of CD20 and CD138 was analyzed in the Cangelosi786 dataset (n = 769) as a training dataset and in our cohort (n = 120) as a validation cohort. CD20 high expression was positively associated with favorable overall survival (OS) and event-free survival (EFS) (OS: P < 0.001; EFS: P < 0.001) in the training dataset, whereas CD138 high expression was associated with poor OS and EFS (OS: P < 0.001; EFS: P < 0.001) in both the training and validation datasets. Accordingly, a combined pattern of CD20 and CD138 expression was developed, whereby neuroblastoma patients with CD20highCD138low expression had a consistently favorable OS and EFS compared with those with CD20lowCD138high expression in both the training and validation cohorts (P < 0.0001 and P < 0.01, respectively). Examination of potential molecular functions revealed that signaling pathways, including cytokine‒cytokine receptor interactions, chemokine, and the NF-kappa B signaling pathways, were involved. Differentially expressed genes, such as BMP7, IL7R, BIRC3, CCR7, CXCR5, CCL21, and CCL19, predominantly play important roles in predicting the survival of neuroblastoma patients. Our study proposes that a new combination of CD20 and CD138 signatures is associated with neuroblastoma patient survival. The related signaling pathways reflect the close associations among the number of TILs, cytokine abundance and patient outcomes and provide therapeutic insights into neuroblastoma.

Dissecting Spatiotemporal Structures in Spatial Transcriptomics via Diffusion-Based Adversarial Learning.

Recent advancements in spatial transcriptomics (ST) technologies offer unprecedented opportunities to unveil the spatial heterogeneity of gene expression and cell states within tissues. Despite these capabilities of the ST data, accurately dissecting spatiotemporal structures (e.g., spatial domains, temporal trajectories, and functional interactions) remains challenging. Here, we introduce a computational framework, PearlST (partial differential equation [PDE]-enhanced adversarial graph autoencoder of ST), for accurate inference of spatiotemporal structures from the ST data using PDE-enhanced adversarial graph autoencoder. PearlST employs contrastive learning to extract histological image features, integrates a PDE-based diffusion model to enhance characterization of spatial features at domain boundaries, and learns the latent low-dimensional embeddings via Wasserstein adversarial regularized graph autoencoders. Comparative analyses across multiple ST datasets with varying resolutions demonstrate that PearlST outperforms existing methods in spatial clustering, trajectory inference, and pseudotime analysis. Furthermore, PearlST elucidates functional regulations of the latent features by linking intercellular ligand-receptor interactions to most contributing genes of the low-dimensional embeddings, as illustrated in a human breast cancer dataset. Overall, PearlST proves to be a powerful tool for extracting interpretable latent features and dissecting intricate spatiotemporal structures in ST data across various biological contexts.

Changes in serum sodium concentration during hemodialysis is a predictor of mortality and cardio-cerebrovascular event.

BACKGROUND: Previous study consistently showed that lower serum sodium (SNa) was associated with a greater risk of mortality in hemodialysis (HD) patients. However, few studies have focused on the change in SNa (ΔSNa = post-HD SNa - pre-HD SNa) during an HD session. METHODS: In a retrospective cohort of maintenance HD adults, all-cause mortality and cardio-cerebrovascular event (CCVE) were followed up for a medium of 82 months. Baseline pre-HD SNa and ΔSNa were collected; time-averaged pre-HD SNa and ΔSNa were computed as the mean values within 1-year, 2-year and 3-year intervals after enrollment. Cox proportional hazards models were used to evaluate the relationships of pre-HD and ΔSNa with outcomes. RESULTS: Time-averaged pre-HD SNa were associated with all-cause mortality (2-year pre-HD SNa: HR [95% CI] 0.86 [0.74-0.99], p = 0.042) and CCVE (3-year pre-HD SNa: HR [95% CI] 0.83 [0.72-0.96], p = 0.012) with full adjustment. Time-averaged ΔSNa also demonstrated an association with all-cause mortality (3-year ΔSNa: HR [95% CI] 1.26 [1.03-1.55], p = 0.026) as well as with CCVE (3-year ΔSNa: HR [95% CI] 1.51 [1.21-1.88], p = <0.001) when fully adjusted. Baseline pre-HD SNa and ΔSNa didn't exhibit association with both outcomes. CONCLUSIONS: Lower time-averaged pre-HD SNa and higher time-averaged ΔSNa were associated with a greater risk of all-cause mortality and CCVE in HD patients.

Photodynamic therapy may salvage chemotherapy failure in gastric cancer: A case report and a literature review.

Given the highly heterogeneous characteristics of advanced gastric cancer (GC), most patients must receive neoadjuvant therapy or conversion therapy consisting of chemotherapy to decrease tumor grade and improve the likelihood of complete resection. Drug resistance, however, always leads to an aborted conversion therapy and inevitable death. When meet drug resistance, alternative drug regimens will be applied with immunotherapy or targeted therapy, whose clinical efficacy remains limited when new drug resistance or severer liver and kidney toxicity emerge. Photodynamic therapy (PDT), a novel treatment, has demonstrated remarkable therapeutic efficacy in different stages of GC. However, no report has been reported so far on the clinical application of photodynamic therapy in conversion therapy after drug resistance. Here we report a case of middle-aged patient with advanced GC, who experienced failure of conversion therapy consisted of multi-line chemotherapy along with immunotherapy. Ultimate success was achieved through a comprehensive conversion therapy of PDT, chemotherapy, immunotherapy, and targeted therapy. Subsequently, the patient underwent robotic-assisted radical gastrectomy while the surgical specimen showed no tumor cell exists. The patient underwent 3 cycles of systemic adjuvant therapy following surgical intervention. Presently, the patient remains 17 months in a satisfactory state of health.

Mobile phone addiction and insomnia among college students in China during the COVID-19 pandemic: a moderated mediation model.

Background: Nowadays, it is widely acknowledged that mobile phone addiction is a risky factor for insomnia symptoms, but to date, people know little about the underlying relationship between them among undergraduates during the COVID-19 pandemic. The purpose of the present study was to examine the potential association between mobile phone addiction and insomnia, as well as the mediating role of social anxiety and the moderating role of physical activity. Methods: Using the Mobile Phone Addiction Tendency Scale, Social Phobia Inventory, Physical Activity Rating Scale and Insomnia Severity Index, 301 eligible college students in China were investigated. For data analysis, descriptive analysis, correlation analysis, moderating effect test, moderating effect test were carried out in turn. Results: The findings revealed a favorable correlation between mobile phone addiction, social anxiety and insomnia, as well as between social anxiety and insomnia. But physical activity was negatively correlated with social anxiety and mobile phone addiction, and social anxiety partially mediated the relationship between mobile phone addiction and insomnia. Additionally, physical activity played a significant moderating effect between mobile phone addiction and social anxiety. Conclusion: This study advances the knowledge of how mobile phone addiction raises the likelihood of experiencing insomnia symptoms, and also implies that upping physical activity level could lessen the harmful impacts from mobile phone addiction.

Urogenital microbiota-driven virulence factor genes associated with recurrent urinary tract infection.

Urinary tract infections (UTIs) are a common health issue affecting individuals worldwide. Recurrent urinary tract infections (rUTI) pose a significant clinical challenge, with limited understanding of the underlying mechanisms. Recent research suggests that the urobiome, the microbial community residing in the urinary tract, may play a crucial role in the development and recurrence of urinary tract infections. However, the specific virulence factor genes (VFGs) driven by urobiome contributing to infection recurrence remain poorly understood. Our study aimed to investigate the relationship between urobiome driven VFGs and recurrent urinary tract infections. By analyzing the VFGs composition of the urinary microbiome in patients with rUTI compared to a control group, we found higher alpha diversity in rUTI patients compared with healthy control. And then, we sought to identify specific VFGs features associated with infection recurrence. Specifically, we observed an increased abundance of certain VGFs in the recurrent infection group. We also associated VFGs and clinical data. We then developed a diagnostic model based on the levels of these VFGs using random forest and support vector machine analysis to distinguish healthy control and rUIT, rUTI relapse and rUTI remission. The diagnostic accuracy of the model was assessed using receiver operating characteristic curve analysis, and the area under the ROC curve were 0.83 and 0.75. These findings provide valuable insights into the complex interplay between the VFGs of urobiome and recurrent urinary tract infections, highlighting potential targets for therapeutic interventions to prevent infection recurrence.

Pure Red Cell Aplasia Secondary to Parvovirus B19 Infection as a Rare Cause of Anemia in a Dialysis Patient: A Case Report.

Parvovirus B19 infection can cause chronic pure red cell aplasia in immunosuppressed hosts or acute and transient aplastic crises in immunocompetent hosts. In dialysis patients, only transient aplastic crisis induced by parvovirus B19 infection has been reported. We herein report the first case of an adult dialysis patient who developed chronic pure red cell aplasia associated with parvovirus B19 infection. Repeated pneumonia and heart failure may contribute to an immunocompromised status, making the patient more vulnerable to parvovirus B19 infection. This case expands on the differential diagnosis of chronic anemia in patients undergoing dialysis.

Breaking the symmetric spiral spectrum distribution of a Laguerre-Gaussian beam propagating in moderate-to-strong isotropic atmospheric turbulence.

We demonstrate that the spiral spectrum (also known as orbital angular momentum spectrum) of a Laguerre-Gaussian (LG) beam with topological charge (TC) l is asymmetrically broadened propagating through moderate-to-strong atmospheric turbulence, even the statistics of turbulence is isotropic. This phenomenon is quite different from that predicted in weak turbulence where the spiral spectrum of a disturbed LG beam is symmetric with respect to its TC number l. An explicit analytical expression of the spiral spectrum of the LG beam with l = 1 is derived based on the extend Huygens-Fresnel integral and quadratic approximation, which is used to illustrate the transition scenarios of the spiral spectrum from symmetry to asymmetry in weak-to-strong turbulence. The physical mechanism for the asymmetric spiral spectrum in moderate-to-strong turbulence is thoroughly discussed. Our results are confirmed by the multi-phase screen numerical simulations and are consistent with the experimental results reported in Phys. Rev. A105, 053513 (2022)10.1103/PhysRevA.105.053513 and Opt. Lett.38, 4062 (2013)10.1364/OL.38.004062.

Impact of body mass index on pathological response after neoadjuvant chemotherapy: results from the I-SPY 2 trial.

PURPOSE: Increased body mass index (BMI) has been associated with poor outcomes in women with breast cancer. We evaluated the association between BMI and pathological complete response (pCR) in the I-SPY 2 trial. METHODS: 978 patients enrolled in the I-SPY 2 trial 3/2010-11/2016 and had a recorded baseline BMI prior to treatment were included in the analysis. Tumor subtypes were defined by hormone receptor and HER2 status. Pretreatment BMI was categorized as obese (BMI ≥ 30 kg/m2), overweight (25 ≤ BMI < 30 kg/m2), and normal/underweight (< 25 kg/m2). pCR was defined as elimination of detectable invasive cancer in the breast and lymph nodes (ypT0/Tis and ypN0) at the time of surgery. Logistic regression analysis was used to determine associations between BMI and pCR. Event-free survival (EFS) and overall survival (OS) between different BMI categories were examined using Cox proportional hazards regression. RESULTS: The median age in the study population was 49 years. pCR rates were 32.8% in normal/underweight, 31.4% in overweight, and 32.5% in obese patients. In univariable analysis, there was no significant difference in pCR with BMI. In multivariable analysis adjusted for race/ethnicity, age, menopausal status, breast cancer subtype, and clinical stage, there was no significant difference in pCR after neoadjuvant chemotherapy for obese compared with normal/underweight patients (OR = 1.1, 95% CI 0.68-1.63, P = 0.83), and for overweight compared with normal/underweight (OR = 1, 95% CI 0.64-1.47, P = 0.88). We tested for potential interaction between BMI and breast cancer subtype; however, the interaction was not significant in the multivariable model (P = 0.09). Multivariate Cox regression showed there was no difference in EFS (P = 0.81) or OS (P = 0.52) between obese, overweight, and normal/underweight breast cancer patients with a median follow-up time of 3.8 years. CONCLUSION: We found no difference in pCR rates by BMI with actual body weight-based neoadjuvant chemotherapy in this biologically high-risk breast cancer population in the I-SPY2 trial.

Sub-dose anesthetics combined with chloride regulators protect the brain against chronic ischemia-hypoxia injury.

BACKGROUND: Cerebral ischemia-hypoxia leads to excitotoxicity-mediated neuronal damage and cognitive dysfunction, especially in the elderly. Excessive intracellular [Cl- ]i accumulation weakens γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) compensatory effects. Sub-anesthetic dose of propofol protected the brain against ischemia-hypoxia, which was abolished by blocking Cl- efflux transporter K+ /Cl- cotransporter 2 (KCC2). We aimed to determine whether low-dose anesthetic combined with [Cl- ]i regulators could restore the compensatory GABAergic system and improve cognitive function. METHODS: Chronic cerebral hypoxia (CCH) model was established by bilateral carotid artery ligation in aged rats. Sub-dose of anesthetics (propofol and sevoflurane) with or without KCC2 agonist N-ethylmaleimide (NEM) or Na+ /K+ /Cl- cotransporter 1 (NKCC1) antagonist bumetanide (BTN) was administered systemically 30 days post-surgery. Primary rat hippocampal neuronal cultures were subjected to hypoxic injury with or without drug treatment. Memory function, hippocampal neuronal survival, GABAergic system functioning, and brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) expressions were evaluated. RESULTS: Sub-anesthetic dose of combined propofol (1.2 µg mL-1 ) and sevoflurane [0.7 MAC (minimum alveolar concentration)] did not aggravate the hypoxic brain injury in rats or cell damage in neuronal cultures. Adding either BTN or NEM protected against hypoxic injury, associated with improved cognitive function in vivo, less intracellular accumulation of [Cl- ]i , reduced cell death, restored GABAergic compensation, and increased BDNF expression both in vivo and in vitro. CONCLUSION: Sub-anesthetic dose of propofol and sevoflurane is a recommended anesthesia regimen in at-risk patients. Restoration of [Cl- ]i homeostasis and GABAergic could further reduce the brain damage caused by ischemia-hypoxia.

Comprehensive molecular findings in primary malignant melanoma of the esophagus: A multicenter study.

Primary malignant melanoma of the esophagus (PMME) is an extremely rare but highly aggressive malignancy with a poor prognosis. Due to the scarcity of driver gene alterations, there is a need for more clinical data to comprehensively depict its molecular alterations. This study reviewed 26 PMME cases from three medical centers. Hybrid capture-based targeted sequencing of 295 and 1021 genes was performed in 14 and 12 cases, respectively. We found that PMME patients had a relatively low tumor mutation burden (median, 2.88 mutations per Mb) and were simultaneously accompanied by mutations in genes such as KIT (6/26, 23%), TP53 (6/26, 23%), SF3B1 (4/26, 15%), and NRAS (3/26, 12%). KIT, NRAS, and BRAF were mutually exclusive, and SF3B1 co-occurred with KIT mutation and amplification. The most common pathways affected were the mitogen-activated protein kinases and DNA damage response (DDR) pathways. Stage IV was a risk factor for both progression-free survival (hazard ratio [HR] = 5.14, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 1.32-19.91) and overall survival (OS), HR = 4.33, 95% CI = 1.22-15.30). Treatment with immune-checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) was an independent factor for favorable OS (HR = 0.10, 95% CI = 0.01-0.91). Overall, PMME is a complex malignancy with diverse gene alterations, especially with harboring DDR alterations for potentially response from ICIs.

Telemedicine network latency management system in 5G telesurgery: a feasibility and effectiveness study.

BACKGROUND: Network latency is the most important factor affecting the performance of telemedicine. The aim of the study is to assess the feasibility and efficacy of a novel network latency management system in 5G telesurgery. METHODS: We conducted 20 telesurgery simulation trials (hitching rings to columns) and 15 remote adrenalectomy procedures in the 5G network environment. Telemedicine Network Latency Management System and the traditional "Ping command" method (gold standard) were used to monitor network latency during preoperative simulated telesurgery and formal telesurgery. We observed the working status of the Telemedicine Network Latency Management System and calculated the difference between the network latency data and packet loss rate detected by the two methods. In addition, due to the lower latency of the 5G network, we tested the alert function of the system using the 4G network with relatively high network latency. RESULTS: The Telemedicine Network Latency Management System showed no instability during telesurgery simulation trials and formal telesurgery. After 20 telesurgery simulation trials and 15 remote adrenalectomy procedures, the p-value for the difference between the network latency data monitored by the Telemedicine Network Latency Management System and the "Ping command" method was greater than 0.05 in each case. Meanwhile, the surgeons reported that the Telemedicine Network Latency Management System had a friendly interface and was easy to operate. Besides, when the network latency exceeded a set threshold, a rapid alarm sounded in the system. CONCLUSION: The Telemedicine Network Latency Management System was simple and easy to operate, and it was feasible and effective to use it to monitor network latency in telesurgery. The system had an intuitive and concise interface, and its alarm function increased the safety of telesurgery. The system's own multidimensional working ability and information storage capacity will be more suitable for telemedicine work.

Kapß2 Inhibits Perioperative Neurocognitive Disorders in Rats with Mild Cognitive Impairment by Reversing the Nuclear-Cytoplasmic Mislocalization of hnRNPA2/B1.

Harmful stimuli trigger mutations lead to uncontrolled accumulation of hnRNPA2/B1 in the cytoplasm, exacerbating neuronal damage. Kapß2 mediates the bidirectional transport of most substances between the cytoplasm and the nucleus. Kapß2 guides hnRNPA2/B1 back into the nucleus and restores its function, alleviating related protein toxicity. Here, we aim to explore the involvement of Kapß2 in neurodegeneration in rats with MCI following sevoflurane anesthesia and surgery. Firstly, novel object recognition test and Barnes maze were conducted to assess behavioral performances, and we found Kapß2 positively regulated the recovery of memory and cognitive function. In vivo electrophysiological experiments revealed that the hippocampal theta rhythm energy distribution was disrupted, coherence was reduced, and long-term potentiation was attenuated in MCI rats. LTP was greatly improved with positive modulation of Kapß2. Next, functional MRI and BOLD imaging will be employed to examine the AFLL and FC values of dynamic connectivity between the cortex and hippocampus of the brain. The findings show that regulating Kapß2 in the hippocampus region enhances functional activity and connections between brain regions in MCI rats. WB results showed that increasing Kapß2 expression improved the expression and recovery of cognitive-related proteins in the hippocampus of MCI rats. Finally, WB and immunofluorescence were used to examine the changes in hnRNPA2/B1 expression in the nucleus and cytoplasm after overexpression of Kapß2, and it was found that nucleocytoplasmic mis location was alleviated. Overall, these data show that Kapß2 reverses the nucleoplasmic misalignment of hnRNPA2/B1, which slows neurodegeneration towards dementia in MCI after sevoflurane anesthesia and surgery. Our findings may lead to new approaches for perioperative neuroprotection of MCI patients.

MUC15 is an independent prognostic factor that promotes metastases of MYCN non-amplified neuroblastoma.

Background: Neuroblastoma (NB) is a cancer that arises from neural-crest-derived sympathoadrenal lineage. Less is known about the pathogenesis and molecular characteristics of MYCN non-amplified (MYCN-NA) NB. Methods: We constructed a signature model targeting mucin family according to RNA sequencing data from GSE49710 dataset, and validated the prognostic performance. We also analyzed the gene expression matrix using DESeq2 R packages to screen the most differential mucin in high-risk NB samples. We further assessed its prognostic value, particularly in MYCN-NA NB samples. Moreover, we performed functional experiments to evaluate the impact of MUC15 overexpression on the migration of MYCN-NA NB cell lines. Results: The 8-mucin signature model showed good prognostic performance in the GSE49710 dataset. Among the mucin genes, MUC15 was significantly upregulated in the high-risk NB cohort and was associated with poor prognosis, especially in MYCN-NA NB samples. Furthermore, MUC15 overexpression and exogenous MUC15 protein enhanced the migration of MYCN-NA NB cell lines. Mechanistically, MUC15 promoted the phosphorylation of focal adhesion kinase (FAK) by inhibiting the expression of MYCT1, a target of c-Myc. Conclusions: Our findings suggested a potential network in controlling NB cell metastasis. Targeting MUC15 in MYCN-NA NB patients could be a promising therapeutic strategy.

Post-healing perceptions and experiences of alcohol withdrawal and life management in men with alcoholic pancreatitis: a qualitative study.

Introduction: The aim of this study was to examine the perceptions and experiences of male patients with alcoholic pancreatitis after healing regarding alcohol withdrawal and life management. Methods: This study used a qualitative descriptive design, and participants were selected by purposive sampling from two tertiary care hospitals in Shandong Province, China. Semi-structured in-depth interviews were conducted with 18 male patients discharged from the gastroenterology department who had recovered from alcoholic pancreatitis. Colaizzi's method was used to analyze the interview data, and the findings were reported using COREQ criteria. Results: By analyzing the interview data, we summarized five themes, (1) the dilemma of sobriety, (2) role change, (3) illness status, (4) family influence, and (5) life management. Conclusion: By profiling the perceptions and experiences of post-healing alcoholic pancreatitis patients' alcohol cessation and life management in men, it helps to grasp the details of alcohol cessation and health direction of patients' home management, which provides more directional guidance to help patients maintain positive and good lifestyle habits and active management awareness, followed by targeted personalized interventions to provide patients with knowledge of disease care and health management.
