Objective: To study effects of mental health education on mental he alth status of middle school students. Methods:Middle scho ol students from juni or and senior classes were randomly selected for the present study. The mental h ealth education focused on self-confidence、self-improvement、self-discipline. T he effect of education was evaluated by MHT. Results:Both in junior and senior classes, there were clear differences in mental health between the experimental and control conditions. Conclusion: Mental health educatio n pro duced favourable effects on mental health development of middle school students.

Objective To evaluate the clinical value and safety of angiography and embolization in the treatment of pulmonary sequestration causing massive haemoptysis. Methods Though digital subtraction angiography(DSA), abnormal arteries were demonstrated in 12 cases with massive haemoptysis. All the abnormal arteries were embolized by gelatin sponge plus silk thread sterilized with high temperature and pressure. Results Among 12 cases of the pulmonary sequestration, 26 abnormal arteries were discovered, originating from thoracic aorta and presenting enlargement, twisting and irregular diameter with strands of middle and distal arterial segments associated with abundant vasculature network. There were several arteries supplying the lesion in 11 cases, and massive haemoptysis were stopped after embolization. Follow up for 6 to 18 months, no recurrence and no complication occurred. Conclusion Arterial angiography and embolization with gelatin sponge plus silk thread for treating pulmonary sequestration with massive hemoptysis possesses high clinical efficiency and safety.

Objective:To study the correlation between non-contact anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury and functional ankle instability (FAI) in young patients.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted of the 102 patients with non-contact ACL injury[61 males and 41 females, with an age of (31.9±6.1) years and a Tegner activity score of (6.1±1.9) points] who had been treated at Department of Orthopedics, Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hospital from January 2017 to March 2020 (injury group). Another 102 citizens without ACL injury from Guangzhou [56 males and 46 females, with an age of (30.3±7.2) years and a Tegner activity score of (6.0±2.1) points] were recruited as a control group. The Cumberland ankle instability tool (CAIT) and the Ankle Joint Functional Assessment Tool (AJFAT) were used to assess whether the subjects had self-conscious FAI or not. A correlation analysis was conducted using the data collected.Results:The 2 groups were comparable because there were no significant differences between them in general data ( P>0.05). By the CAIT score, the incidence of FAI in the injury group [52.9% (54/102)] was significantly higher than that in the control group [32.4% (33/102)] ( P<0.05); by the AJFAT score, the incidence of FAI in the injury group [59.8% (61/102) ] was significantly higher than that in the control group [39.2% (40/102)] ( P<0.05). Pearson correlation analysis showed that diagnoses of FAI by CAIT and by AJFAT were respectively correlated with ACL injury ( r=-0.159, P=0.023; r=-0.215, P=0.002). Conclusions:The incidence of FAI may be high in patients with ACL injury and there is a correlation between FAI and ACL injury.

Objective:To explore the clinical phenotype and genotype of a family with hereditary hypofibrinogenemia.Methods:Activated partial thrombin time (APTT), prothrombin time (PT),thrombin time (TT) and thrombelastogram (TEG) were tested in all family members. Fibrinogen activity and antigen were detected by Clauss method and immunoturbidimetric method respectively. All exons and flanking sequences of fibrinogen FGA,FGB,FGG genes were analyzed by PCR, and the products were subjected to Sanger sequencing.Results:The proband represented prolonged PT and TT, low Fg activity and antigen, elevated K value and decreased Angle value in TEG. Other family members reported similar changes including proband′s father,daughter and son, and his elder brother and his niece. Exon 5 c.510_512 of FGG gene in the proband revealed a minor deletion mutation.Conclusion:The novel heterozygous missense mutation of exon 5 c.510_512del (Gln170_Ile171 del ins His) of FGG gene is the molecular mechanism that leads to hereditary hypofibrinogenemia in this family.
