Objective:To analyze suicide methods and demographic characteristics of attempted suicide pa-tients in Baise City,Guangxi and to provide the basis for suicide intervention.Methods:A retrospective analysis method was conducted on the case data of attempted suicide patients treated in the emergency departments of 14 general hospitals in Baise City from 2018 to 2021.The situation of attempted suicide patients was recorded using the suicide patient information collection forms.Results:Among the 2 529 attempted suicide patients,1 636 committed-suicide by taking pesticides,557 used therapeutic drugs,112 used rodenticides,and 53 used carbonmonoxide(CO).The proportion of male and farmer suicides by taking pesticides was higher,and the proportion of female and non-farmer suicides by taking therapeutic drugs was higher.Multivariate analysis showed that the proportion of patients aged 45-60 years old patients who took pesticide was higher(OR=3.18),while the proportion of patients aged 45～60 who took therapeutic drugs was lower(OR=0.19).The proportion of suicides taking pesticides and using carbon monoxide significantly decreased in 2020(OR=0.56)and 2021(OR=0.52),while the proportion of sui-cides taking therapeutic drugs significantly increased in 2020(OR=2.04)and 2021(OR=3.18).Conclusion:Proportion of attempted suicide by taking pesticides is the most common method of suicide among residents in Baise City,with males,farmers,and middle-aged groups being the most affected.The proportion of attempted suicide by taking medication has significantly increased,with a higher incidence among women.

Objective:To examine the roles played by peer attachment and cognitive fusion in the association between negative life events and depression,as well as the differences in these relationships of variables among pri-mary and secondary school students.Methods:A total of 2 767 students(1 950 elementary school students and 817 middle school students)were selected.The Adolescent Life Events Scale,the Experiences in Close Relationships-Relationship Structures Questionnaire,the Cognitive Fusion Questionnaire,and the Patient Health Questionnaire were used to measure negative life events,peer attachment,cognitive fusion,and depression,respectively.Results:Negative life events,peer attachment,cognitive fusion and depression were positively correlated with each other(r=0.36-0.75,Ps＜0.001);the mediation effects of peer attachment and cognitive fusion and their chain mediation effects were 0.04,0.30,and 0.04,respectively,accounting for 6.7％,50％,and 6.7％of the total effect.There were significant differences in the chain mediation model between primary and secondary school students(△x2=47.12,△df=6,P＜0.001),and significant gender differences in the chain mediation effect among primary school students(△x2=43.72,△df=6,P＜0.001).Conclusion:Negative life events influence depression in primary and secondary school students both directly and indirectly through peer attachment and cognitive fusion.Negative life e-vents have greater impact on primary school students'(particularly girls)peer attachment.Peer attachment has grea-ter impact on secondary school students' cognitive fusion.Cognitive fusion has greater impact on primary school students' depression.Peer attachment has greater impact on primary school boys' depression.

Objective:To investigate the association between prenatal environmental factors and attention defi-cit hyperactivity disorder(ADHD)and its symptom severity in children.Methods:Based on the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders,Fourth Edition(DSM-Ⅳ)diagnosis criteria,1 156 children with ADHD and 289 normal control children were included in this study.ADHD diagnoses were established using the Clinical Diag-nostic Interview Scale,core symptoms were assessed with the ADHD Rating Scale,and information on prenatal ex-posures were collected via self-developed questionnaires.Results:Maternal stress during pregnancy was associated with increased risk factor of ADHD in children(OR=1.22,P＜0.01).Among children with ADHD,preconception paternal alcohol consumption was positively associated with hyperactivity/impulsivity symptoms(β=0.08,P＜0.05),and maternal smoking during pregnancy was positively associated with total symptoms(β=0.07-0.09,P＜0.05).Conclusion:Maternal stress during pregnancy may increase the risk factor of ADHD in children.Both pre-conception paternal alcohol consumption and maternal smoking during pregnancy may be associated with increased ADHD symptom severity in children.

Objective:To investigate the relationship between empathy and meaning in life among medical students,and explore the mediating role of altruistic behavior.Methods:A total of 581 medical students were recrui-ted.They were assessed with the Interpersonal Reactivity Index-C(IRI-C),Altruistic Behavior Questionnaire of College Students(ABQ-CS),and Quadripartite Existential Meaning Scale(QEMS).The bootstrap method was used to test the hypothesized mediating effect.Results:The scores of IRI-C were positively correlated with the scores of ABQ-CS and QEMS(r=0.45,0.21,Ps＜0.001).The scores of ABQ-CS were positively correlated with the QEMS scores(r=0.46,P＜0.001).Altruism was a complete mediator between empathy and meaning in life,the indirect effect was 0.20(95％CI:0.15-0.26).Conclusion:This study reveals the underlying connections a-mong altruistic behavior,empathy,and meaning in life among medical students,suggesting that interventions targe-ting empathy and altruistic behavior may enhance their meaning in life.

Objective:To analyze the effects of different psychological interventions on cancer patients' fear of cancer recurrence(FCR).Methods:Randomized controlled trials examining the effects of various psychological interventions on FCR among cancer patients were searched for in both Chinese and English literature databases.A network meta-analysis was conducted to explore the intervention effects,utilizing standardized mean difference(SMD),95％confidence interval(CI),and surface under the cumulative ranking(SUCRA)of FCR as the effect indicators.Results:A total of 34 studies involving 3 772 participants were included,of which five types of psycho-logical interventions were evaluated,namely acceptance and commitment therapy(ACT),gratitude-expansion thera-py(GET),cognitive behavioral therapy(CBT),mindfulness therapy(MT),and multi-component psychological in-tervention(Mul).According to the time of effect evaluation,three effect evaluation timing were confirmed,with immediate post-intervention group,1-2 months post-intervention group,and 3-6 months post-intervention group identified.Compared with conventional care,in the immediate post-intervention group,ACT(SMD=-1.80,95％CI:-2.47--1.13),GET(SMD=-1.33,95％CI:-2.07--0.59),MT(SMD=-0.59,95％CI:-1.03--0.14)and CBT(SMD=-0.54,95％CI:-0.93--0.15)could effectively reduce FCR,and the SUCRA val-ue of ACT was upmost to 0.96.In the 1-2 months post-intervention group,GET(SMD=-2.32,95％CI:-2.99--1.65)and ACT(SMD=-1.46,95％CI:-2.23--0.70)could effectively reduce FCR,and the SUCRA value of GET was upmost to 0.99.In the 3-6 months post-intervention group,Mul(SMD=-1.82,95％CI:-3.03--0.61)and MT(SMD=-1.43,95％CI:-2.33--0.54)could effectively reduce FCR,and the SU-CRA value of Mul was upmost to 0.90.Conclusion:Different psychological interventions vary in their effectiveness on FCR across effect evaluation time points,highlighting the need for tailored approaches on mitigating FCR in clin-ical practice.

Objective:To investigate the effect of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation(rTMS)on sleep structure and quality in children with autism spectrum disorder(ASD).Methods:Sixty children with ASD who met the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders,Fifth Edition(DSM-5)criteria were randomly assigned to rTMS treatment group and pseudo-treatment group.The rTMS group received bilateral low-frequency(0.5 Hz)stimulation,and the pseudo-treatment group received pseudo-stimulation at the same time and place.Sleep quality and autism symptoms were assessed at baseline,midpoint(15 sessions),and endpoint(30 sessions),using the Childhood Sleep Disorders Scale(SDSC)and the Behavior Rating Scale for Children with Autism Spectrum Disorders(ABC)before treatment,15 times and 30 times of intervention,and statistical analysis was performed.Results:There was no significant difference in SDSC factor and total score between the two groups before treatment(P＞0.05).After 15 and 30 treatments,the total scores of SDSC and all factors were lower in the rTMS group than in the pseudo-treatment group(P＜0.05).Repeated measurement ANOVA found that there was an interaction be-tween the groups and the number of interventions,that is,the scores of the two groups had different downward trends,and the decline of the treatment group was more obvious than that of the pseudo-treatment group.There was no significant difference in the interaction between ABC scale scores and intervention times(P＞0.05).Conclu-sion:Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation significantly improves the sleep structure and quality in children with autism spectrum disorder.

Objective:To explore the core dimensions of adolescent anxiety and their relationship with parental rearing styles and perceived social support using network analysis.Methods:A total of 3 712 adolescents were in-vestigated.The Screen for Child Anxiety Related Emotional Disorders,the Short-form Egna Minnenav Barndoms Uppfostran for Chinese,and the Perceived Social Support Scale were used to assess the anxiety levels,parental rea-ring styles,and perceived social support.Network analysis and gender network comparison were conducted using R programming language.Results:The network analysis model showed that generalized anxiety and somatization/pan-ic anticipation had the highest Expected Influence of 1.21 and 1.12,which were the two core dimensions of adoles-cent anxiety levels.The affective warmth in parental rearing styles had a Bridge Expected Influence index of 0.34,making it a bridging node in the network.The network comparison result indicated that there were significant struc-tural gender differences in the adolescent anxiety-parenting style-perceived social support network(P＜0.05),but there was no significant gender difference in global strength(P＞0.05).Conclusion:Interventions targeting adoles-cent anxiety should prioritize generalized anxiety and somatization/panic.Emotional warmth in parenting serves as a bridge connecting adolescent anxiety with perceived levels of social support.

Objective:To investigate the intervention effect of dance therapy on the psychological symptoms and psychological craving in methamphetamine-dependent women.Methods:A total of 60 methamphetamine de-pendents in a women's drug rehabilitation center were divided into intervention group and control group(1 person dropped out).The intervention group was trained for 8 dance movements,during which the control group did not in-tervene.The Zhang Tuoji and Chen Huichang's Temperament Scale,Symptom Self-Rating Scale(SCL-90)and Amphetamine Craving Scale(DSQ)were used to evaluate the temperament type,psychological symptoms and psy-chological craving.Results:The differences of SCL-90 depression and anxiety scores(post-intervention score-base-line score)and DSQ total scores were higher in the intervention group than in the control group(Ps＜0.05).The choleric temperament scores were negatively correlated with the differences of DSQ total scores(r=-0.45,P＜0.05),and the melancholic temperament scores were positively correlated with the differences of SCL-90 hostility dimension scores(r=0.41,P＜0.05).Conclusion:Dance therapy could improve the psychological symptoms and psychological craving of women dependent on methamphetamine,with varying effects across different temperament types.

Objective:To explore the effect of acceptance and commitment therapy matrix(ACT Matrix)for somatic symptoms associated with pre-exam anxiety in a high school student.Methods:An 8-session intervention was conducted,conceptualized by the ACT Matrix.The comprehensive assessment of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy processes(CompACT)and the evaluation of inverted U-shaped pressure curve were used for pre-and post-assessment.Results:The client's CompACT score increased from 56 to 71,and his stress level score decreased from 9 to 6.The client's somatic symptoms were significantly alleviated,the sleep improved,the relationship with his par-ents enhanced.Furthermore,The client exceeded expectation in the final semester exam.Conclusion:ACT Matrix effectively alleviated pre-exam anxiety-related somatic symptoms in a high school student,which is a useful tool to guide and facilitate the counseling.

Objective:To investigate the longitudinal relationship between self-esteem and hope of adolescents and to explore gender differences.Methods:A total of 1 982 adolescents,aged 11 to 24,participated in a l-year lon-gitudinal study with 3 waves of assessments(T1,baseline time;T2,6 months later;T3,1 year later).The Self-Es-teem Scale(SES)and the Children's Hope Scale(CHS)were used to measure levels of self-esteem and hope.The data were analyzed using a cross-lagged panel model and multi-group structural equation modeling.Results:Across the three measurement waves,the self-esteem scores were positively correlated with the hope scores(r=0.40-0.67).Results from the cross-lagged analysis indicated a bidirectional predictive relationship between the self-es-teem scores and hope scores over the year(β=0.09-0.22).The results of multi-group analysis showed significant gender differences in the autoregressive path of self-esteem in the three measures(Waldx2=3.78-3.84).Conclu-sion:Adolescents' self-esteem and hope exhibit a bidirectional predictive relationship,with no significant gender differences in the cross-lagged paths.
