Objective:
To analyze the association of personality characteristics and cognitive adjustment strategies among parents of adolescents with non suicidal self injury(NSSI) with adolescent NSSI.
Methods:
Adolescents with NSSI who visited the hospital from January 2020 to January 2021 were recruited as the case group( n =60), and healthy adolescents recruited in the school, community and hospital were selected as the control group( n =60). The participants parents completed the Chinese Big Five Personality Inventory and the Chinese version of the Cognitive Emotion Regulation Questionnaire (CERQ-C), Logistic regression was used to explore the associations.
Results:
Parents of the control group had higher scores of openness (40.90±6.19) and conscientiousness (48.18±6.12) than parents of the case group (36.88±5.02)(44.12±6.58) ( t =3.90,3.50, P <0.05). In terms of negative events, scores of acceptance, positive reappraisal, refocusing on planning, positive refocusing and putting into perspective were higher among parents of the control group than among parents of the case group ( t =3.43,3.58,2.36,5.44,3.53, P <0.05). Among parents of the case group, neuroticism was positively correlated with putting into perspective ( r =0.31) and catastrophizing ( r =0.37). Openness was positively correlated with positive refocusing ( r =0.30) and positive reappraisal ( r =0.27). Acceptance was negatively correlated with extroversion ( r = -0.29 ), openness ( r =-0.40), conscientiousness ( r =-0.26),while other blame was negatively correlated with extroversion ( r = -0.35 ), agreeableness ( r =-0.36). Extraversion was negatively associated with positive refocusing ( r =-0.32)( P <0.05). According to binary regression analysis, the income of parents in the case group ( OR =0.49), education ( OR =0.60), acceptance ( OR =0.59), positive reappraisal ( OR =0.45), putting into perspective ( OR =0.53), neuroticisms ( OR =0.81), openness ( OR =0.76) and conscientiousness ( OR =0.74) were risk factors, whereas refocusing on planning ( OR =2.09) and self blame ( OR =1.55) were protective factors of NSSI in the case group( P <0.05).
Conclusion
When confronted with adverse events, the personality characteristics of parents of children with NSSI, and the emotional regulation strategies adopted by these parents, have influence on the prevalence of NSSI in this population.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the clinicopathologic features and prognostic factors of gastric neuroendocrine neoplasms(gNENs).
METHODSClinicopathologic data of 104 patients with gastric neuroendocrine neoplasms admitted in Chinese PLA General Hospital between January 2000 and December 2014 were analyzed retrospectively. Tumor proliferation activity classification (G1, G2 and G3) and TNM staging were observed. The clinicopathologic features of the whole group were collected and the univariate and multivariate analysis were determined by Log-rank and Cox proportional hazard model to detect the prognosis-determining features.
RESULTSOf all the patients, 66 cases(63.5%) were neuroendocrine carcinoma, 25 cases(24.0%) were mixed adenoendocrine carcinoma and 12 cases (11.5%) were neuroendocrine tumor. For G grades, 92 cases (88.5%) were G3 grade, 8 cases(7.7%) were G2 grade and 4 cases (3.8%) were G1 grade. TNM staging results showed that stageI( was found in 6 cases (5.8%), stageII(A in 6 cases (5.8%), stageII(B in 9 cases (8.7%), stage III(A in 8 cases (7.7%), stage III(B in 55 cases (52.9%) and stageIIII( in 20 cases (19.2%). For T stage, 7 cases (6.7%) were T1, 12 cases (11.5%) were T2, 24 cases (23.1%) were T3, and 61 cases (58.7%) were T4. Lymph node metastasis occurred in 73 cases (70.2%) and distant metastasis occurred in 20 cases(19.2%). Eighty-six patients were followed up for 6 to 186 months. The median survival was 33.0 months(95% CI: 28.3 to 36.6), and 1-, 3-, and 5-year survival rates were 80%, 49% and 31%. Clinicopathologic features which were considered statistically significant on univariate analysis were selected to Cox proportional hazard model. Univariate analysis showed that risk factors of reducing survival rate included tumor size, pathological type, proliferation activity grades, and depth of invasion (all P<0.05), as well as chromogranin A expression, tumor staging, lymph node metastasis and distant metastasis(all P<0.01). The multivariate analysis showed that the stage of gNEN was the independent risk factor of the prognosis (RR=14.213, 95% CI: 1.316 to 153.524, P=0.029).
CONCLUSIONLate staging is the main clinical feature and a prognostic factor for gNENs.

Doctor-patient relationship plays a crucial role in regulating medical behavior and medical ethics. The essence of doctor-patient relationship is the true practice of life created by mutual kindness and harmony, which expressed by love, sympathy, comfort and cooperation. From the perspective of economy, ethics, law, science and technology, this paper deeply analyzed the reasons and consequences of doctor-patient relationship’s deviation from the essence, and believed that effectively strengthening communication, actively enhancing empathy, and sincerely providing care are conducive to returning to the essence of the doctor-patient relationship and easing the tense situation of the doctor-patient relationship.
