Introduction: The 2030 global target for eliminating dog-mediated human rabies, jointly proposed by the World Health Organization (WHO) and other international organizations, presents significant challenges for China. This study analyzes epidemiological trends (2005-2023), forecasts future case numbers, and compares China's progress with elimination strategies from the United States, Japan, and Brazil to optimize national rabies prevention and control approaches.
Methods: Descriptive statistics were used to analyze the spatiotemporal distribution of human rabies cases across China.
Objective: The pathogenesis of migraine is not fully understood until now. This study was designed to explore whether the intake of live dietary microbes could be used as an auxiliary means for the treatment of severe headache and migraine.
Methods: Data used in this study were came from the US National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) from 1999 to 2004.
The heavy metals discharged from electroplating wastewater, represented as copper and chromium ions, is harmful to aquatic lives and human beings, and will break the ecological balance. In this work, magnetic hybrid porous structure adsorbent of FeO@SiO-UiO-66-EDTA is prepared for recycling copper and chromium ions. The adsorbent exhibits a maximum adsorption capacity of 212.

Further, studies investigating the effect of reversible cognitive frailty (RCF) or potentially reversible cognitive frailty (PRCF) on fall risk are scarce. This study aimed to investigate the influence of RCF and PRCF on falls in community-dwelling older adults of China and determine whether CF conferred a higher risk than cognitive impairment or frailty alone.

The influence of depression, functional limitations and multimorbidity on patterns of decline of global cognitive function among community-dwelling older adults remains unknown. This study examines the relationship between these health conditions and the course of decline of global cognitive function.

Background: Recurrent headaches in headache disorders adversely impact quality of life and job. Migraines and tension-type headache TTH) are the most common primary headaches and a prominent cause of disability globally. However, few research compare headache illness burden in China, India, the United States (US), and Japan.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFBackground and objective Migraine is characterized by recurrent headaches, frequently associated with nausea, photophobia, and phonophobia; it is highly prevalent and linked to a heavy socioeconomic burden. While the prevalence of obesity in the general population has increased in recent years, no prior studies exist regarding the relationship between body fat percentage (BF%) and the incidence of severe headaches or migraine. In light of this, we conducted this study to address this gap in data.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFObjective: This study aimed to identify the potential subgroups of migraines based on the patterns of migraine associated symptoms, vestibular and auditory symptoms using latent class analysis and to explore their characteristics.
Method: A total of 555 patients with migraine participated in the study. Symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, photophobia, phonophobia, osmophobia, visual symptoms, vestibular symptoms (dizziness, vertigo), and auditory symptoms (tinnitus, hearing loss, aural fullness) were assessed.
Objective: The present study endeavors to identify natural subgroups of migraine patients based on the patterns of non-headache symptoms, utilizing cluster analysis. Subsequently, network analysis was performed to estimate the structure of symptoms and explore the potential pathophysiology of these findings.
Method: A total of 475 patients who met the diagnostic criteria for migraine were surveyed face-to-face during the period of 2019 to 2022.

Objective: To evaluate the clinical and radiologic outcomes of the Hybrid surgery (cervical artificial disc replacement combined with anterior cervical discectomy and fusion (ACDF)) and the effective of the adjacent segment.
Methods: Between December 2007 to June 2010, 34 patients underwent 2-level cervical disc surgery. There were 17 patients underwent Hybrid surgery (Hybrid group), 17 patients underwent 2-level ACDF (ACDF group).
