Abstract	In recent years, ultrasound-guided costoclavicular brachial plexus block (CCB) has gained attention as a novel approach for brachial plexus nerve block. Human anatomy studies have identified the costoclavicular space as the area between the midpoint of the clavicle and the first rib. This space accommodates the brachial plexus, axillary arteries, and veins. Its superficial and fixed position makes it a promising option for infraclavicular brachial plexus blockage, providing a safe and reliable analgesic effect. CCB combines the benefits of real-time ultrasound visualization of the nerve block needle, avoidance of peripheral blood vessels, and targeted delivery of local anesthetics to the nerve. Consequently, it significantly reduces the associated complications of other classical approaches such as interscalene brachial plexus block (ISB), supraclavicular brachial plexus block (SCB), lateral sagittal infraclavicular brachial plexus block (LS-ICB), and axillary brachial plexus block. These complications include phrenic paralysis, incomplete brachial plexus block, and pneumothorax. This narrative review examines the literature on brachial plexus block in the costoclavicular space, discussing the anatomical position, the procedure, clinical indications, choice of local anesthetic concentration and volume, and continuous nerve block of CCB. The aim is to provide a basis for future clinical practice and enhanced safety.

Abstract	To investigate the knowledge, attitude, and practice (KAP) of photoaging in the Chinese population. This web-based cross-sectional study was conducted between January 2023 and March 2023 among the Chinese population aged 18-80 years old. Participants' knowledge, attitude, and practice toward photoaging were collected through a self-administered questionnaire. A total of 830 questionnaires were collected, with 826 valid questionnaires and an efficiency rate of 99.52%. There were 274 (33.17%) males and 532 (64.41%) aged 31-51 years old. The average knowledge, attitude, and practice scores were 7 (4, 9) (possible range 0-12), 31.5 (28, 34) (possible range 8-40), and 33 (24, 42) (possible range 11-55), respectively, indicating poor knowledge, good attitude, and moderate practice. Spearman correlation analysis showed that knowledge was negatively correlated with attitude (r = - 0.111, P < 0.05) and practice (r = - 0.113, P < 0.05), and attitude was positively correlated with practice (r = 0.992, P < 0.05). The multivariable linear regression model showed that for each point increase in attitude score, the practice score increased by 2.96 points (β = 2.96, 95% CI 2.91-3.01, P < 0.001). The Chinese population has poor knowledge, good attitude, and moderate practice toward photoaging. A good attitude toward photoaging would lead to good practice, and more outreach and education for the Chinese population might be needed.

Abstract	With the rapid economic development and continuous urbanization, the status of river ecosystems is undergoing profound changes. Therefore, quantitative assessment of the impact of urbanization on the water system is highly desirable. Considering Wuhan metropolitan area as the study area, this study constructed an indicator system and used the entropy technique for order preference similarity to ideal solution (TOPSIS) method to quantify the urbanization level of each city. The urbanization process was divided into four periods based on the results of the urbanization level measurement. Then, the theory of landscape ecology was used to establish the evaluation index system of the water system pattern. Finally, the study used the grey relational analysis model to analyze the relationship between urbanization and evolution of water patterns under different periods. The results indicate that (1) from 2000 to 2019, the urbanization level of Wuhan metropolitan area exhibited an increasing trend, while the four indicators of the quantitative attribute and the two indicators of complexity showed a decline. (2) A negative correlation was observed between urbanization level and water system pattern indicators, with the correlation ranging from 0.55 to 0.62 (maximum value is 1). The urbanization process shows the most significant impact on the quantitative characteristics of water systems. (3) After classifying the urbanization stages, the correlation further increased between 0.55 and 0.95. (4) The four indicators of water patterns with the highest correlation with urbanization in the given periods are class area, area-weighted mean patch fractal dimension, edge density, and number of patches. Management can judge the corresponding human activities in relation to the current stage of the urbanization process and targeted protection of the water systems.

Abstract	This paper introduces a weaving method to develop three-dimensional and stretchable polymeric optical fiber (POF) fabrics with double weave. It was discovered from the literature that the appearance and property of existing POF textiles are still quite limited. So far, stretch performance has not been realized for POF textiles. The goal of this paper is to determine the design parameters of creating three-dimensional and stretchable POF textiles. The new properties for POF textiles were realized by combing double weave and elastic yarns with suitable motifs. The surface dimension and stretch were compared for eight POF samples . From the experimental results, it was shown that the POF fabrics woven with the unstitched double weave at substantial transverse areas exhibited the most effective three-dimensional effect and stretch. The POF samples created in this study showcased the characteristics of dimensional surface, great volume, high stretch, as well as unique luminous effects.

Abstract	Introduction: Rosacea is a common chronic inflammatory disease occurring on the face, whose diagnosis is mainly based on symptoms and physical signs. Due to some overlap in symptoms and signs with other inflammatory skin diseases, young and inexperienced doctors often make misdiagnoses and missed diagnoses in clinical practices. We analyze the results of skin physiology and dermatoscopy using machine learning method and identify the characteristics of acne rosacea, which differentiate it from other common facial inflammatory skin diseases so as to improve the accuracy of clinical and differential diagnosis of rosacea. Methods: A total of 495 patients who were jointly diagnosed by two experienced doctors were included. Basic data, clinical symptoms, physiological skin detection, and dermatoscopy results were collected, and the clinical characteristics of rosacea and other common facial inflammatory diseases were summarized according to the descriptive analysis results. The model was established using a machine learning method and compared with the judgment results of young and inexperienced doctors to verify whether the model can improve the accuracy of clinical diagnosis and differential diagnosis of rosacea. Results: The proportion of yellow and red halos, vascular polygons, as well as follicular pustules, showed by dermatoscopy, and the melanin index in physiological skin detection revealed statistical significance in differentiating rosacea and other common facial inflammatory diseases (all P < 0.01). After adopting the machine learning, we found that GBM (Gradient Boosting Machine) algorithm was the best, and the error rate of this model in the validation set was 5.48%. In the final man-machine comparison, the accuracy of the GBM algorithm model for the classification of skin disease was significantly higher than that of young and inexperienced doctors. Conclusion: Dermatoscopy combined with machine learning can effectively improve the diagnosis and differential diagnosis accuracy of rosacea and other facial inflammatory skin diseases.

Abstract	Rosai-Dorfman disease(RDD) is a rare benign histiocytic proliferative disorder. Cutaneous Rosai-Dorfman disease(CRDD)is a rare variant of RDD with lesions localized to the skin. We report a case of patients with CRDD who was refractory to methotrexate, thalidomide, cyclosporine, glucocorticoid for local injection and external use, but resolved with fractional laser combined with 5-aminolevulinic acid photodynamic therapy (ALA-PDT). We believe that fractional laser technology combined with ALA-PDT for CRDD is a minimally invasive, effective and satisfactory treatment.

Abstract	Four flavonoid glycosides containing coumaroyl or feruloyl groups were isolated from the male flowers of Ginkgo biloba L., and compounds 3 and 4 were identified as novel compounds. The inhibitory activities against α-glucosidase were investigated by docking studies, in vitro assays and kinetic studies. The docking results showed that all compounds mainly formed hydrogen-bond and π-π-stacking interactions with α-glucosidase. Compound 4 had the lowest binding energy and maximum number of hydrogen bonds. Subsequently, the in vitro assays showed that compound 4 exhibited the strongest inhibitory potency. Finally, the kinetic studies indicated the inhibitory mode of compounds 1–4 against α-glucosidase were mixed types of competitive and non-competitive. Together, these findings suggested that the isolated flavonoid glycosides in this study, especially compound 4, have potential as α-glucosidase inhibitors.

Abstract	Artificial intelligence (AI) offers the potential for the development of e-textiles that give wearers a smart and intuitive experience. An emerging challenge in intelligent materials design is hand gesture recognition textiles. Most current research focuses on number gesture recognition via smart gloves, so there is a gap in research that studies contact-less number gesture recognition textiles via computer vision. Meanwhile, there is lack of exploration on the integration of illuminating function and number gesture recognition textiles to improve interactivity by real-time visualizing detection results. In this research, a novel interactive illuminating textile with a touch-less number gesture recognition function has been designed and fabricated by using an open-source AI model. It is used in sync with a polymeric optical fiber textile with illuminative features. The textile is color-changing, controlled by the system's mid-air interactive number gesture recognition capability and has a woven stripe pattern and a double-layer weave structure with open pockets to facilitate integration of the system's components. Also described here is a novel design process that permits textile design and intelligent technology to integrate seamlessly and in synchronization, so that design in effect mediates continuously between the physical textile and the intangible technology. Moreover, this design method serves as a reference for the integration of open-source intelligent hardware and software into e-textiles for enhancement of the intuitive function and value via economy of labor.

Abstract	Little is known about the association between coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) and autoimmune diseases, especially in the case of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). SLE patients met with many questions during the pandemic in COVID-19, such as how to minimize risk of infection, the complex pathological features and cytokine profiles, diagnosis and treatment, rational choice of drugs and vaccine, good nursing, psychological supervision, and so on. In this study, we review and discuss the multifaceted effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on patients living with SLE using the available literature. Cross-talk in implicated inflammatory pathways/mechanisms exists between SLE and severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection, and SARS-CoV-2 displays similar clinical characteristics and immuno-inflammatory responses to SLE. Current epidemiological data inadequately assess the risk and severity of COVID-19 infection in patients with SLE. More evidence has shown that hydroxychloroquine and chloroquine cannot prevent COVID-19. During the pandemic, patients with SLE had a higher rate of hospitalization. Vaccination helps to reduce the risk of infection. Several therapies for patients with SLE infected with COVID-19 are discussed. The cases in the study can provide meaningful information for clinical diagnosis and management. Our main aim is to help preventing infection and highlight treatment options for patients with SLE infected with COVID-19.
