The epidemiological research on mental health in China has undergone decades of development, transitioning from multi-regional surveys to nationally representative studies. In 1982, Academician Shen Yucun led a team to complete the first national survey in 12 regions, revealing a point prevalence rate of 10.54‰. In 1993, the point prevalence rate in the second national survey in 7 regions rose to 11.18‰. In 2002, the Composite International Diagnostic Interview (CIDI)-3.0 and Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, Fouth Edition (DSM-Ⅳ) standards were first applied in the surveys in urban Beijing and Shanghai to achieve international standards, but the representativeness of urban samples was limited. Subsequent regional studies contributed methodological insights toward a nationally representative survey. From 2013 to 2015, a research team led by Professor Huang Yueqin, in collaboration with 43 institutions, completed the China Mental Health Survey (CMHS), covering 32 552 community adults in 157 counties/districts in 31 provinces/autonomous. This study represents the first nationally representative epidemiological survey of mental disorders in China. The main results showed that the lifetime prevalence of mental disorders among adults in Chinese communities with depressive disorders was 16.6%, including 7.4% for mood disorders and 7.6% for anxiety disorders. Only 9.5% of patients with depressive disorders received treatment, and the full treatment rate was as low as 0.5%. Further surveys based on the CMHS framework in regions such as Ningxia, Urumqi, and Inner Mongolia confirmed the high risk of disease among rural women in western China and the widespread phenomenon of inadequate treatment. The results of CMHS methodology was transformed into the national Guidelines and Technical Standards for Epidemiological Investigation of Community Mental Disorders (2015 Edition) and software copyright, and the main data had been published in The Lancet Psychiatry. It has been used to guide the formulation of policies such as the Healthy China Action (2019-2030). CMHS establishing a complete process from scientific investigation to policy translation, filling the data gap at the national level, providing a replicable paradigm for the world, especially for developing countries, and marking a new stage of evidence-based decision-making in China's mental health epidemiological research.

OBJECTIVES:
To investigate the therapeutic mechanism of Thesium chinense Turcz. (TCT) for antibiotic-associated diarrhea (AAD).
METHODS:
Network pharmacology, KEGG pathway enrichment analysis and molecular docking were used to identify the shared targets and genes of TCT and AAD, the key signaling pathways and the binding between the active components in TCT and the core protein targets. In a Kunming mouse model of AAD established by intragastric administration of lincomycin hydrochloride, the effects of daily gavage of 1% carboxymethyl cellulose sodium or TCT gel solutions at 1.5 g/kg and 3 g/kg (n=10) on body weight and diarrhea were observed. HE staining, ELISA, 16S rRNA sequencing, and Western blotting were used to examine pathologies, expression levels of IL-6 and TNF-α, changes in gut microbiota, and protein expressions of EGFR, p-EGFR, PI3K, p-PI3K, Akt, and p-Akt in the colon tissues of the mice.
RESULTS:
We identified a total of 66 active components of TCT and 68 core targets including EGFR, STAT3 and PIK3CA. KEGG pathway enrichment analysis suggested that the therapeutic effects of TCT was mediated primarily through the PI3K/Akt signaling pathway. Molecular docking showed that EGFR had the highest binding affinity with coniferin, and the EGFR-coniferin complex maintained a stable conformation at 10 ns, whose stability was also confirmed by Gibbs free energy analysis. In the mouse models of AAD, treatment with TCT significantly improved colonic tissue morphology, decreased colonic levels of TNF-α and IL-6, increased gut microbiota diversity, and modulated the relative abundances of the key genera including Lactobacillus and Bacteroides. TCT treatment also markedly reduced protein expressions of p-EGFR, p-PI3K and p-Akt in the colon tissues of the mice.
CONCLUSIONS
TCT can alleviate AAD in mice by modulating gut microbiota composition, regulating the EGFR/PI3K/Akt signaling pathway, and reducing TNF‑α and IL-6 expressions.

ObjectiveTo explore the compliance related factors of repeated screening for colorectal cancer in Jiading District, and to provide a scientific basis for the prevention and control of colorectal cancer. MethodsBased on the natural population cohort in Jiading District, and the screening situation in 2017‒2019 and 2020‒2022, the study subjects were divided into the groups of never participating in screening and participating in screening. Subjects in the participating group were further divided into participating in one round of screening or having repeated screening. SPSS 21.0 software was used to analyze the demographic characteristics of each group. χ2 test or Fisher precise probability test were used to conduct univariate analysis of the factors such as gender, age, education level, marital status, retirement status, and type of medical insurance. Factors with the significant difference (P<0.05) were selected for inclusion in multivariate analysis, and factors related to compliance with repeated screening were analyzed by multivariate logistic regression. ResultsA total of 8 179 subjects were included in the study, including 3 323 males (40.6%) and 4 856 females (59.4%). The average age of the subjects was (61.26±6.06) years old. A total of2 652 (32.4%) had educated in primary school or below, 4 242 (51.9%) in secondary school, and 1 285 (15.7%) in higher secondary school. Mostly, 7 579 (92.7%) were married. Among the participants, 4 062 people had never participated in screening, 4 117 people had participated in screening, and 1 485 of them had repeated screening, with a repeated screening rate of 18.2%. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that women had better compliance with repeated screening than men (OR=1.31, 95%CI: 1.14‒1.50). Compared with the population aged 50 to 54 years, the population aged 55‒59 years (OR=1.57, 95%CI: 1.19‒2.08), 60-64 years (OR=2.77, 95%CI: 2.13‒3.61), and 65-69 years (OR=3.31, 95%CI: 2.51‒4.36) had higher compliance with repeated screening. Compared with employees' medical insurance, residents' medical insurance group had worse compliance with repeated screening (OR=0.76, 95%CI: 0.66‒0.87). People with a history of intestinal polyps were more likely to undergo repeat screening than those without (OR=2.07, 95%CI: 1.50‒2.87). ConclusionCompliance with repeated screening for colorectal cancer still needs to be improved, and there are differences in compliance with repeated screening for different populations with different characteristics. Identifying groups that are unlikely to adhere to community-based colorectal cancer screening and taking targeted interventions can help improve the continued compliance of residents with colorectal cancer screening.

Objective:To evaluate the feasibility of abandoning prophylactic abdominal drainage in patients undergoing minimally invasive minor hepatectomy based on a propensity score matching (PSM) study.Methods:Retrospective review of a prospectively collected database of patients undergoing minimally invasive minor hepatectomy from July 2022 to May 2023 at the Department of Hepatopancreatobiliary Surgery and Minimally Invasive Surgery, Zhejiang Provincial People's Hospital. A total of 108 patients were enrolled, including 48 males and 60 females, aged (60.8±13.7) years old. According to whether the abdominal drainage tube was prophylactically placed intraoperatively, patients were divided into two groups: the drainage group (with prophylactic placement of abdominal drainage tubes, n=76); the no-drainage group (without prophylactic placement of abdominal drainage tubes, n=32). PSM was used to compare the perioperative data between the groups, including extent of liver resection, intraoperative blood loss, operative time, and postoperative complications. Postoperative survival status within 90 days was followed up through telephone review. Results:Before PSM, the two groups differed significantly on age and the history of hypertension (both P<0.05). After PSM, there were 23 patients in each group. Patients in the two groups showed comparable results regarding the intraoperative parameters including the surgical method, pathological types, the number and maxium diameter of hepatic lesions, the extent and complexity of liver resection, and the duration of hepatic inflow occlusion (all P>0.05). No postoperative intra-abdominal bleeding occurred in either group. The incidences of postoperative complications were comparable between the groups, including fever, bile leakage, incision infection, and abdominal acupuncture for drainage (all P>0.05). After PSM, compared to patients wothout prophylactic abdominal drainage, prophylactic abdominal drainage group showed a decreased white blood cell counts on postoperative day 1 [9.39(6.30, 10.58)×10 12/L vs. 13.19(10.15, 14.90)×10 12 /L, P=0.006] and a shorter length of postoperative hospital stay [4(3, 5) d vs. 5(4, 5) d, P=0.033]. No postoperative death within 90 days occurred in either group. Conclusion:In minimally invasive minor hepatectomy, abandoning prophylactic abdominal drainage could be feasible, which facilitates fast recovery without increasing the incidence of postoperative fever, perihepatic fluid accumulation and postoperative abdominal acupuncture for drainage.
