Objective:
To evaluate the risk of fine particulate matter (PM2.5) on excess mortality among residents.
Methods:
The data of residential mortality in Yangzhou City, Jiangsu Province from 2015 to 2021 were collected from the Chinese Disease Prevention and Control Information System. The average daily mass concentration of PM2.5 and meteorology data were collected from the Yangzhou Environmental Monitoring Station and Yangzhou Meteorological Bureau, respectively. The effects of PM2.5 on non-accidental mortality, morality of respiratory diseases and mortality of circulatory diseases were evaluated using a generalized additive model. The risk of excess mortality was evaluated using excess risk (ER) and the number of excess mortality.
Results:
The median average annual mass concentration of PM2.5 was 38.00 (interquartile range, 31.95) µg/m3 in Yangzhou City from 2015 to 2021, decreasing from 51.75 (interquartile range, 32.82) µg/m3 in 2015 to 28.00 (interquartile range, 23.42) µg/m3 in 2021. The median average annual number of non-accidental mortality, mortality of respiratory diseases and mortality of circulatory diseases were 96 (interquartile range, 22), 9 (interquartile range, 5) and 38 (interquartile range, 13) cases, respectively. The greatest effects of per 10 μg/m3 increase in PM2.5 mass concentration on non-accidental mortality, mortality of respiratory diseases, and mortality of circulatory diseases were seen at a cumulative lag of 1 day (ER=0.528%, 95%CI: 0.293%-0.763%), a cumulative lag of 2 days (ER=0.917%, 95%CI: 0.125%-1.714%) and a cumulative lag of 1 day (ER=0.595%, 95%CI: 0.232%-0.961%), respectively. The number of excess mortality caused by PM2.5 on non-accidental mortality, mortality of respiratory diseases, and mortality of circulatory diseases in Yangzhou City from 2015 to 2021 were 2 125, 412 and 977 cases, respectively; compared with 2015, the number of excess mortality in 2021 decreased by 66.95%, 75.53% and 64.42%, respectively.
Conclusions
An increase in the mass concentration of atmospheric PM2.5 may elevate the risk of excess mortality among residents. Compared to 2015, the number of excess deaths attributed to exposure to atmospheric PM2.5 declined in 2021.

Many studies have found a correlation between suicidal behavior (SB) and anhedonia, the main symptom of depression, in terms of both psychological and neurophysiological findings. The purpose of this review is to find the relationship between the two neuroimaging mechanisms, and to provide help for the future study of how the brain imaging changes can promote the mechanism of SB in depression patients with anhedonia symptoms. This review also emphasizes the necessity of intervention for the symptoms of anhedonia when preventing depression from committing suicide. The latest research results were reviewed about anhedonia in depression and magnetic resonance imaging of SB.The results showed that the default network, insula, lateral orbitofrontal gyrus, anterior cingulate gyrus, ventral striatum gyrus, ventral lateral and dorsolateral prefrontal gyrus, thalamus and habenula nucleus were dysfunction in depression with state anhedonia symptoms, affecting SB in terms of mood, execution, reward and aversion processing, especially the low lethal SB.

Objective:To survey the health literacy and related factors of family caregivers of patients with chronic diseases in Beijing.Methods:A survey was conducted from September to November 2018, among 1 350 family caregivers of patients with chronic diseases selected by stratified random sampling from 6 districts of Beijing. A self-filling questionnaire was used for the survey, which consisted of the basic information and health literacy of family caregivers. Health literacy included three parts: daily living habits, basic knowledge (knowledge of prevention and management of behavioral risk factors, knowledge related to chronic diseases and knowledge related to first aid) and chronic disease-related skills.Results:A total of 1 268 valid questionnaires were collected with a recovery rate of questionnaires was 93.9%. The median age of 1 268 family caregivers was 62 years (23-86) and 75.7% (960/1 268) were females. In terms of daily habits, smokers and drinkers accounted for 11.3% (143/1 268) and 21.5% (272/1 268) respectively; 82.7% (1 049/1 268) caregivers exercised regularly accounted, of whom 72.5% (761/1 049) exercised at least 4 times a week; 28.9% (366/1 268) caregivers had habit of light diet. In terms of basic knowledge of health literacy, 12.9% (163/1 268) of family caregivers mastered the basic knowledge (≥80% total score); family caregivers who were able to measure blood pressure, blood sugar, pulse, coping with hypoglycemia, cardiopulmonary resuscitation and dialing the emergency number correctly accounted for 27.4% (347/1 268), 18.1% (230/1 268), 15.1% (191/1 268), 15.7% (199/1 268), 6.0% (76/1 268) and 33.8% (429/1 268), respectively. For the six chronic disease-related skills, 23.7% (301/1 268) were able to call emergency number correctly and only 2.6% (33/1 268) were able to perform CPR. There were significant differences in the knowledge of behavioral risk factors ( χ 2=3.88, P=0.017), chronic disease related knowledge ( χ2=7.40, P=0.025), first-aid related knowledge ( χ2=12.04, P=0.002) and overall basic knowledge ( χ2=13.56, P=0.001) among family caregivers with different educational levels. There were significant differences in the knowledge of chronic diseases among family caregivers in different occupations ( χ2=8.78, P=0.012). Conclusion:The health literacy level of family caregivers of patients with chronic diseases in Beijing needs to be further improved, and there are differences in the health literacy of family caregivers with different educational qualifications and occupations.

【Objective】 To investigate whether there is a correlation between the differences in ABO blood group distribution in patients with pancreatic cancer, and to evaluate the relative risk. 【Methods】 Patients with pathological diagnosis or discharge diagnosis of pancreatic cancer who underwent ABO blood group typing in our hospital from January 2017 to October 2021 were selected, and the blood group distribution of patients and the correlation were analyzed. 【Results】 There was a statistically significant difference between the pancreatic cancer group and the control group (P<0.05). The study showed that type A may be a relative risk factor for pancreatic cancer patients (χ2=42.44, P<0.001), and type B may play a protective role (χ2=16.28, P<0.01). Significant differences were found in distribution between different gender groups (χ2=64.35, P<0.05). The test results showed that type A may be a risk factor for pancreatic cancer in men (χ2=35.2, OR=1.7, 95%CI=0.59-1.02, P<0.001), and type O may play a protective role in pancreatic cancer(χ2=18.22, OR=0.6, 95%CI=0.25-0.32, P<0.01); type A may be a relative risk factor for female pancreatic cancer patients (χ2=7.06, OR=1.4, 95%CI=0.59-1.02, P<0.001), while type B may play a protective role (χ2=20.32, OR=0.5, 95%CI=0.32-0.43, P<0.01). In pancreatic cancer group, the risk factors of blood type A were higher than those of non-A group, and the protective effect of type B was significantly higher than that of non-B group. 【Conclusion】 The distribution of blood group and relative risk factors in pancreatic cancer patients suggest that A type is predominant; in the population with A blood group, more attention should be paid to early prevention and early treatment, so as to reduce the risk of disease.

Objective:
To explore the effect of improving these traits through art therapy group meetings as a form of psychological counseling, so as to promote mental wellness among this population.
Methods:
A total of 74 hearing impaired students from grades 3 to 9 were surveyed with the Children s Self concept Scale (PHCSS) and Social Adaptability Scale. Eight art therapy group meetings, as a form of psychological counseling, were then held.
Results:
Self consciousness among hearing impaired students aged 10-12 and 13-16 years old was significantly lower than the national norm ( t =-6.51, -8.50, P <0.01). The social adaptability level of this group was very poor(2.89±8.26), and a significant positive correlation was found between self awareness and social adaptability among hearing impaired students. Further, self awareness could predict the social adaptability of these students ( F = 9.04 , P <0.05). After group psychological counseling intervention, there was significant increases in self consciousness among students from grades 3 to 9, and significant increases were also found in the social adaptability of students in grades 3, 4, 5, 6 and 8 ( P <0.05).
Conclusion
Self awareness shows certain influence on the social adaptability level of hearing impaired students, and group psychological counseling can promote social adaptability by improving self awareness among this population.

Objective:To survey the training needs for chronic diseases among family health care workers in Beijing.Methods:A questionnaire survey on training needs for chronic disease was conducted from September to November 2018 among 820 family health care workers from 15 community health service centers in Beijing selected by stratified random sampling. The questionnaire consisted of demographic information and training needs related to chronic diseases. The training needs included: the knowledge and skills related to chronic diseases: the types of chronic diseases expected to learn, the basic knowledge of chronic diseases (7 items), preventive health care knowledge (7 items), nursing and rehabilitation skills (9 items); the duration, frequency, method, time and location of training arrangement.Results:The survey showed that chronic disease that family health care workers most wanted to learn was hypertension (90.3%, 717/794); among the basic knowledge of chronic diseases, the highest need was disease risk factor (65.5%, 520/794); among the knowledge of preventive health care, the highest need was home safety protection (87.3%, 693/794); among nursing and rehabilitation skills, the highest need was blood glucose measurement (83.1%, 660/794). The female respondents had higher training need for basic knowledge of chronic diseases than males ( Z=2.51, P=0.012). There were significant differences in the needs for preventive health care knowledge among respondents of different gender ( Z=2.72, P=0.007), occupation ( H=15.02, P=0.001) and educational level ( H=12.01, P=0.002). Respondents with different age ( H=6.49, P=0.039), occupation ( H=52.93, P<0.001) and educational level ( H=9.56, P=0.008)) had different needs for nursing and rehabilitation skills. Among the respondents, 58.2% (462/794) indicated that duration of each course should be 30-59 min, 34.0% (270/794) wanted to participate in the training once a month, 53.1% (422/794) wanted to participate in the training in the form of large class, 39.2% (311/794) were willing to participate in the training on working days and 48.7% (387/794) wanted to be trained in community health service institutions. Conclusions:There are diverse training needs of family health care workers. Attention should be paid to the implementation of need-oriented training. It is crucial to promote the motivation of family health care workers to participate in the training, which can improve the training effect and facilitate their role in family health management.

Purpose:
Lymphoblastic lymphoma (LBL) is an invasive neoplasm of precursor T-cell or B-cell lineage.A broadly accepted standard treatment for adult LBL has not yet been defined.
Materials and Methods:
To address this issue, we compared two chemotherapy regimens: a modified non-Hodgkinlymphoma Berlin–Frankfurt–Mu!nster-95 (NHL-BFM-95) regimen and HyperCVAD/MA. Thisretrospective study consecutively enrolled 207 adult LBL patients at two hospitals from2000 to 2018. Univariate and multivariate analysis were used to assess prognostic factors.
Results:
In the present study, most clinical characteristics were similar between the two treatmentgroups except for age and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) level. Patients treated with modifiedNHL-BFM-95 regimen tended to be younger and with elevated LDH level. The modified NHLBFM-95 regimen produced better treatment outcomes than those with HyperCVAD/MA inpatients with T-LBL or patients < 40 years. Treatment with HyperCVAD/MA, high EasternCooperative Oncology Group scores, and bone marrow involvement were independent riskfactors in T-LBL. No patients interrupted treatment for severe adverse events.
Conclusion
The results suggested that the modified regimen is well-tolerated and can produce the promisingoutcomes in patients with T-LBL or patients < 40 years.

Objective To investigate the value of the reverse shock index multiplied by GlasgowComa scale score (rSIG) and serum translocator protein 18000 in the prognosis of patients with severe traumatic brain injury. Methods One hundred and fifteen patients with severe traumatic brain injury were divided into the survival group and death group. SPSS 20.0 software was used to compare the vital signs, rSIG and TSPO between the two groups, and the relationship between rSIG and TSPO was analyzed. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was used to predict the value of rSIG and TSPO and their combination in the prognosis of patients with severe traumatic brain injury. According to the best cut-off value of rSIG and TSPO of ROC curve, patients were divided into the rSIG ≤ 14.8 group and rSIG>14.8 group, and the TSPO ≤ 1.84 ng/mL group and TSPO>1.84 ng/mL group, and the mortality between the groups was compared. Results In 115 patients, rSIG of the survival group was significantly higher than that of the death group, and TSPO was significantly lower than that of the death group [(10.5±4.4) vs. (6.4±4.1), 1.0(0.3,1.9) ng/mL vs.3.4 (2.0, 4.6) ng/mL, P<0.01]. The ability of rSIG combined with TSPO to forecast the mortality of patients with severe traumatic brain injury is not superior to the predictive power of these two indicators alone. The serum TSPO value and 28-day mortality in the rSIG > 4.15 group were significantly higher than those in the rSIG ≤ 4.15 group. The rSIG value of the TSPO ≤ 1.84 ng/mL group was significantly higher than that of the TSPO>1.84 ng/mL group; the 28-day mortality was significantly lower than that in the TSPO>1.84 ng/mL group. The rSIG value was negatively correlated with serum TSPO value (r=-0.611, P<0.01). Conclusions rSIG value and serum TSPO value have good predictive value for the prognosis of patients with severe traumatic brain injury, and can provide certain guiding significance in clinical practice.

Objective To describe the cardiovascular risk profile of inpatients with schizophrenia and estimate the 10-year CVD risk in schizophrenia patients. Methods Four hundred sixty-six randomly selected cases of schizophrenia patients and 507 health controls were included in the study. Body mass index (BMI), Fasting blood glucose (FBG), triglyceride (TG),,total cholesterol (TC), smoking rate (smoking people/total people), Framing-ham Risk Score (FRS), high density lipoprotein-cholesterol (HDL-C) and age of the vessel (VA). The 10-year cardiovascular risk(FRS) and age of the vessel (VA) were assessed using the Framing-ham Risk Score. Results 10-year CVD risk was significantly higher in patients with schizophrenia than in control group [(6.71 ±6.95)% vs. (4.76 ±3.07)%], (P<0.05). Comparing with the control group, smoking prevalence[(41%) vs. (19%)], MS[(25%) vs. (17%)], BMI[(23.67 ±3.61)kg/m2 vs. (21.73±4.11)kg/m2] and VA[(46.7±15.3) vs. (43.7±9.8)] were higher in patients group. SBP[(119.86±14.90)mmHg vs. (128.10±15.41)mmHg] and HDL-C [(1.08±0.27)mmol/L vs. (1.38±0.22)mmol/L] were lower in patients group than in the healthy controls. The FRS score of the patient group was positively correlated with BMI, FBG level and SBP, waist circumference and smoking index (P<0.05) and was negatively correlated with the levels of HDL-C. Multivariate Linear Regression analysis demonstrated that FRS was correlated with FBG (β=0.181,P<0.01)、SBP (β=0.149,P<0.01)、HDL-C (β=-0.107,P<0.01) and smoking index(β=0.554,P<0.01). Conclusion The risk of cardiovascular disease in patients with schizophrenia over the next 10 years is 6.7%, which is significantly higher compared with the control group. Fasting blood glucose, systolic blood pressure, high density lipoprotein, smoking may be associated with 10-year CVD risk of schizophrenia patients.
