Objective To explore the correlation between illness conception, health seeking behavior and mental health status in recruits. Methods 865 recruits were evaluated by Symptom Checklist 90 (SCL-90), Self-Rating Anxiety Scale (SAS), Self-Rating Depression Scale (SDS) and Self-Rating Scale of Illness Conception and Health Seeking Behavior (SSICHSB) . Results (1) Except interpersonal sensitivity, depression and hostility, there were significantly differences in other factors of SCL-90 between recruit and the national norm. Somatization and anxiety scres were significantly higher ghan the military norm. The scores of SAS and SDS were significantly higher for recruits compared to national norm. (2) There was negative correlation between the total score, each factor score of SCL-90, the total score of SDS, the total score of SAS and SSICHSB; (3) Stepwise lines regression found three factors including anxiety, the total score of SAS and obsessiveness statistically significant, when the dependent variable was the total score of SSICHSB. Conclusion There are obvious somatization,anxiety and depression in recruits. The more obvious the symptoms are, the more passive the illness conception and health seeking behavior are.

The use of suture to pull the lingual gingival flap in mandibular posterior dental implant surgery may damage the contralateral mouth corner of the surgical area.This study explored the effectiveness of sterile wound dressing in preventing the friction injury by suture in oral implant surgery.A total of 506 patients were included,the sterile wound dressing was used in the test group(n=363)but not in the control group(n=143).The postoperative situation of the patients was analyzed,validated and received holistic care after implant surgery.The results suggest that the use of sterile wound dressing can shorten the operation time,prevent suture friction of mouth corer,simplify post-operative care and improve patient satisfaction for posterior dental implant surgery.

BACKGROUND: Acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS)-related non-Hodgkin lymphoma (AR-NHL) is a high-risk factor for morbidity and mortality in patients with AIDS. This study aimed to determine the prognostic factors associated with overall survival (OS) and to develop a prognostic nomogram incorporating computed tomography imaging features in patients with acquired immune deficiency syndrome-related non-Hodgkin lymphoma (AR-NHL). METHODS: A total of 121 AR-NHL patients between July 2012 and November 2019 were retrospectively reviewed. Clinical and radiological independent predictors of OS were confirmed using multivariable Cox analysis. A prognostic nomogram was constructed based on the above clinical and radiological factors and then provided optimum accuracy in predicting OS. The predictive accuracy of the nomogram was determined by Harrell C-statistic. Kaplan-Meier survival analysis was used to determine median OS. The prognostic value of adjuvant therapy was evaluated in different subgroups. RESULTS: In the multivariate Cox regression analysis, involvement of mediastinal or hilar lymph nodes, liver, necrosis in the lesions, the treatment with chemotherapy, and the CD4 ≤100 cells/μL were independent risk factors for poor OS (all P < 0.050). The predictive nomogram based on Cox regression has good discrimination (Harrell C-index = 0.716) and good calibration (Hosmer-Lemeshow test, P = 0.620) in high- and low-risk groups. Only patients in the high-risk group who received adjuvant chemotherapy had a significantly better survival outcome. CONCLUSION A survival-predicting nomogram was developed in this study, which was effective in assessing the survival outcomes of patients with AR-NHL. Notably, decision-making of chemotherapy regimens and more frequent follow-up should be considered in the high-risk group determined by this model.
