ObjectiveTo investigate the error monitoring and attention network in patients with obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD).Methods 33 OCD patients and 31 healthy subjects were tested with the error monitoring task and attention network test.ResultsThere wcrc significant differences between the patients with OCD and heath controls on Full Correct(FC),Full Error(FE),the numbers of uncertain,the numbers of dropout in the error monitoring task ( FC ( 121.03 ± 4.41 ) / ( 135.61 ± 3.28 ),FE ( 19.30 ± 3.69 ) / ( 9.45 ± 2.33 ),the numbets of uncertain( 8.27 ± 2.16) / ( 2.87 ± 0.70),the numbers of dropout ( 13.70 ± 2.60 ) / (4.26 ± 1.24 ) ) (P ＜0.05 ).In the attention network test,the comparison between the patients with OCD and healthy subjects on the RT of the alerting network was significant differences (P ＜ 0.05 ).There was a significant correlation between attention network and error monitoring.ConclusionThe impairment of the error monitoring as well as attention network in patients with OCD may be involved in the dysfunction of anterior cingulate cortex.

Objective:To explore the impact of whole blood organophosphate esters (OPEs) flame retardant exposure on thyroid function-related hormones in healthy older adults.Methods:In this panel study, five repeated population-based epidemiological surveys and biological sample collection were conducted from September 2018 to January 2019, with 76 healthy older adults aged 60-69 years in the Dianliu Community of Jinan, Shandong Province. Information on the sociodemographic characteristics, diet, and health status of the respondents was systematically gathered through questionnaires and physical examinations. Fasting venous blood was collected to determine the levels of OPEs, thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH), triiodothyronine (T 3), and thyroxine (T 4). A linear mixed-effects model was used to analyze the impact of OPEs exposure on thyroid function-related hormones in healthy older adults. Results:Each of the 76 subjects participated in at least two follow-up visits, resulting in a total of 350 person visits. The age of the study participants was (65.07±2.76) years, with 38 participants of both sexes. A total of eight OPEs were included with a detection rate exceeding 50%, and the M ( Q 1, Q3) for ∑OPEs was 3.85 (2.33, 5.74) ng/ml, with alkyl-OPEs being the major type of OPEs with an M ( Q 1, Q3) of 1.27 (0.64, 2.50) ng/ml. The M ( Q 1, Q3) for TSH, T 3, and T 4 was 3.74 (2.55, 5.69) μIU/ml, 1.32 (1.10, 1.60) ng/ml, and 45.04 (36.96, 53.27) ng/ml, respectively. Linear mixed-effects model showed that TSH was significantly decreased by 9.93% (95% CI:-15.17%, -4.36%) and 11.14% (95% CI:-15.94%, -6.06%) in older adults for each quartile level increase in TnBP and TEHP exposures, respectively. Gender-stratified analysis indicated that TEHP exposure was negatively associated with TSH levels in male older adults, whereas a decrease in TSH levels among female older adults was associated with TnBP exposure. Conclusion:Exposure to whole blood OPEs is associated with decreased TSH levels among healthy older adults, with notable gender differences.

Objective To investigate the clinical efficacy of dot matrix laser combined with subcutaneous separation in the treatment of depressed acne scar.Methods A total of 86 patients with depressed acne scar admitted to the Second Affiliated Hospital of Nanchang University from February 2022 to August 2023 were selected and divided into dot matrix group and combined group according to random number table method,with 43 cases in each group.The patients in dot matrix group were treated with dot matrix laser,and the patients in combined group were treated with dot matrix laser combined with subcutaneous separation.The visual analogue scale(VAS)score,echelle d'evaluation clinique des cicatrices d'acne(ECCA)score,pigmentation area,scar area,treatment satisfaction and adverse reactions were compared between two groups.Results There was no significant difference in VAS scores between two groups after the first treatment and the second treatment(P>0.05).Three months after treatment,the ECCA score of combined group was significantly lower than that of dot matrix group,and the pigmentation area and scar area were significantly smaller than those of dot matrix group(P<0.05).The total satisfaction of patients in combined group was significantly higher than that in dot matrix group(χ2=4.746,P=0.029).There was no significant difference in the occurrence of adverse reactions between two groups(χ2=0.453,P=0.501).Conclusion Dot matrix laser combined with subcutaneous separation in the treatment of depressed acne scar can effectively promote scar repair,reduce skin pigmentation area and scar area,and do not increase pain,with good safety and high patient satisfaction.
