Article Abstract
Background: To investigate the efficacy of lidocaine injection for the cannulation of arteriovenous fistulas in patients undergoing maintenance hemodialysis (HD).
Methods: The clinical data of 91 patients who underwent arteriovenous fistula puncture and maintenance HD at our hospital from December 2023 to July 2024 were retrospectively analyzed. The patients were divided into groups based on the different pre-cannulation treatment methods. The control group ( = 43) underwent cannulation after routine disinfection, whereas the study group ( = 48) underwent cannulation following a local injection of 0.2% lidocaine.
Results: The cannulation success rate was significantly higher in the study group (97.92%) than in the control group (81.40%). After cannulation, the heart rate and the systolic blood pressure in the study group were notably lower than those in the control group. After cannulation, the scores of the study group on the Hamilton Anxiety Rating Scale, Hamilton Depression Rating Scale, and the Chinese version of the Perceived Stress Scale were markedly lower than those of the control group. Pain levels in the study group were also significantly lower than those in the control group. The General Comfort Questionnaire and total scores in the study group were also significantly lower than those in the control group. The complication rate in the intervention group (2.08%) was significantly lower than that in the control group (18.60%), and the satisfaction rate in the study group was 95.83% (46/48), which was significantly higher than that in the control group (79.07% (34/43)).
Conclusions: Local injection of 0.2% lidocaine effectively alleviated pain during arteriovenous fistula cannulation, improved comfort, and reduced complications in maintenance HD patients.

Background: The coevolutionary arms race between echolocating bats and tympanate moths has driven the evolution of ultrasound-mediated escape behaviors in moths. Bat-emitted ultrasonic pulses vary in sound intensity and temporal structure, with pulse repetition rate (PRR) which intrinsically encode critical information about predation risk, i.e.

Background: The objective of this study was to compare the effects of daily consumption of white potatoes compared with white rice on cardiometabolic health in individuals with type-2 diabetes (T2D).
Objective: To determine the effects of white potato consumption compared to white rice (a commonly consumed refined grain) on indices of glycemic control and cardiovascular health in individuals with overweight or obesity and T2D.
Methods: In this randomized crossover study, comparative control trial, 24 adults with T2D [45-80 y, body mass index (kg/m) 25-40] consumed baked white potatoes (100 g) or calorie-matched white rice (75 g) daily for 12 wk, separated by a 2-wk washout, with assessments of glycemic control, lipids, inflammation, blood pressure, endothelial function, and body composition at baseline (only 1 baseline visit included as a covariate in statistical analyses), 6 wk, and 12 wk.
Safety of Acupuncture in Polycystic Ovary Syndrome: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis of Randomized Controlled Trials.

Introduction: Acupuncture has emerged as an effective adjunctive therapy for polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) with concern on the higher rate of adverse events (AE). In addition, timing of intervention, specific acupoints, and stimulation strength are concerning, as high-stimulation electroacupuncture (EA) may increase miscarriage risk. This review aims to systematically evaluate the safety profile of acupuncture in PCOS.

Background: People living with HIV(PLWH) are a high-risk population for cancer. We conducted a pioneering study on the gut microbiota of PLWH with various types of cancer, revealing key microbiota.
Methods: We collected stool samples from 54 PLWH who have cancer (PLWH-C), including Kaposi's sarcoma (KS, n=7), lymphoma (L, n=22), lung cancer (LC, n=12), and colorectal cancer (CRC, n=13), 55 PLWH who do not have cancer (PLWH-NC), and 49 people living without HIV (Ctrl).
