Objective:To analyze suicide methods and demographic characteristics of attempted suicide pa-tients in Baise City,Guangxi and to provide the basis for suicide intervention.Methods:A retrospective analysis method was conducted on the case data of attempted suicide patients treated in the emergency departments of 14 general hospitals in Baise City from 2018 to 2021.The situation of attempted suicide patients was recorded using the suicide patient information collection forms.Results:Among the 2 529 attempted suicide patients,1 636 committed-suicide by taking pesticides,557 used therapeutic drugs,112 used rodenticides,and 53 used carbonmonoxide(CO).The proportion of male and farmer suicides by taking pesticides was higher,and the proportion of female and non-farmer suicides by taking therapeutic drugs was higher.Multivariate analysis showed that the proportion of patients aged 45-60 years old patients who took pesticide was higher(OR=3.18),while the proportion of patients aged 45～60 who took therapeutic drugs was lower(OR=0.19).The proportion of suicides taking pesticides and using carbon monoxide significantly decreased in 2020(OR=0.56)and 2021(OR=0.52),while the proportion of sui-cides taking therapeutic drugs significantly increased in 2020(OR=2.04)and 2021(OR=3.18).Conclusion:Proportion of attempted suicide by taking pesticides is the most common method of suicide among residents in Baise City,with males,farmers,and middle-aged groups being the most affected.The proportion of attempted suicide by taking medication has significantly increased,with a higher incidence among women.

Objective:To examine the roles played by peer attachment and cognitive fusion in the association between negative life events and depression,as well as the differences in these relationships of variables among pri-mary and secondary school students.Methods:A total of 2 767 students(1 950 elementary school students and 817 middle school students)were selected.The Adolescent Life Events Scale,the Experiences in Close Relationships-Relationship Structures Questionnaire,the Cognitive Fusion Questionnaire,and the Patient Health Questionnaire were used to measure negative life events,peer attachment,cognitive fusion,and depression,respectively.Results:Negative life events,peer attachment,cognitive fusion and depression were positively correlated with each other(r=0.36-0.75,Ps＜0.001);the mediation effects of peer attachment and cognitive fusion and their chain mediation effects were 0.04,0.30,and 0.04,respectively,accounting for 6.7％,50％,and 6.7％of the total effect.There were significant differences in the chain mediation model between primary and secondary school students(△x2=47.12,△df=6,P＜0.001),and significant gender differences in the chain mediation effect among primary school students(△x2=43.72,△df=6,P＜0.001).Conclusion:Negative life events influence depression in primary and secondary school students both directly and indirectly through peer attachment and cognitive fusion.Negative life e-vents have greater impact on primary school students'(particularly girls)peer attachment.Peer attachment has grea-ter impact on secondary school students' cognitive fusion.Cognitive fusion has greater impact on primary school students' depression.Peer attachment has greater impact on primary school boys' depression.

Objective:To investigate the association between prenatal environmental factors and attention defi-cit hyperactivity disorder(ADHD)and its symptom severity in children.Methods:Based on the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders,Fourth Edition(DSM-Ⅳ)diagnosis criteria,1 156 children with ADHD and 289 normal control children were included in this study.ADHD diagnoses were established using the Clinical Diag-nostic Interview Scale,core symptoms were assessed with the ADHD Rating Scale,and information on prenatal ex-posures were collected via self-developed questionnaires.Results:Maternal stress during pregnancy was associated with increased risk factor of ADHD in children(OR=1.22,P＜0.01).Among children with ADHD,preconception paternal alcohol consumption was positively associated with hyperactivity/impulsivity symptoms(β=0.08,P＜0.05),and maternal smoking during pregnancy was positively associated with total symptoms(β=0.07-0.09,P＜0.05).Conclusion:Maternal stress during pregnancy may increase the risk factor of ADHD in children.Both pre-conception paternal alcohol consumption and maternal smoking during pregnancy may be associated with increased ADHD symptom severity in children.

Objective:To investigate the relationship between empathy and meaning in life among medical students,and explore the mediating role of altruistic behavior.Methods:A total of 581 medical students were recrui-ted.They were assessed with the Interpersonal Reactivity Index-C(IRI-C),Altruistic Behavior Questionnaire of College Students(ABQ-CS),and Quadripartite Existential Meaning Scale(QEMS).The bootstrap method was used to test the hypothesized mediating effect.Results:The scores of IRI-C were positively correlated with the scores of ABQ-CS and QEMS(r=0.45,0.21,Ps＜0.001).The scores of ABQ-CS were positively correlated with the QEMS scores(r=0.46,P＜0.001).Altruism was a complete mediator between empathy and meaning in life,the indirect effect was 0.20(95％CI:0.15-0.26).Conclusion:This study reveals the underlying connections a-mong altruistic behavior,empathy,and meaning in life among medical students,suggesting that interventions targe-ting empathy and altruistic behavior may enhance their meaning in life.

Objective:To investigate the related factors of cognitive impairment in middle-aged and old-aged patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus(T2DM).Methods:A total of 970 patients with T2DM(585 middle-aged group and 385 old-aged group)were selected from residents of a large community in Beijing from September to December 2018.The Mini-Mental State Examination(MMSE)was used to assess the cognitive func-tion.Multivariate logistic regression was used to analyze the related factors.Results:The detection rates of cognitive impairment were 12.0％and 13.5％in middle-aged and old-aged patients with T2DM,respectively.Among mid-dle-aged patients with T2DM,work(OR=0.22,95％CI:0.03-0.77)and education at the junior college or un-dergraduate level and above(OR=0.18,95％CI:0.04-0.55)were protective factors for cognitive impair-ment.Myocardial infarction(OR=4.13,95％CI:1.26-13.63)was a risk factor for cognitive impairment.Among old-aged patients with T2DM,drinking tea 1-2 times a week(OR=0.11,95％CI:0.01-0.58)and education at the junior college or undergraduate level and above(OR=0.19,95％CI:0.05-0.54)were protective factors for cognitive impairment.Stroke(OR=3.64,95％CI:1.55-8.39)and good sleep self-assessment(OR=2.75,95％CI:1.13-7.35)were risk factors for cognitive impairment.Conclusion:Cognitive impairment in middle-aged pa-tients with T2DM is related to work,education level and myocardial infarction,and cognitive impairment in old-aged patients with T2DM is related to lifestyle,education level and stroke.

Objective:To investigate the causal impact of maternal smoking around birth(MSAB)on off-spring's risk of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder(ADHD),autism spectrum disorder(ASD),bipolar disorder(BD),and major depressive disorder(MDD).Methods:The datasets for MSAB and 4 psychiatric disorders were extracted from genome-wide association studies(GWAS).Mendelian randomization(MR)was employed,using in-verse variance weighting(IVW)as the primary analysis method.Sensitivity analyses and outlier correction were conducted using weighted median(WM),MR-Egger regression,and MR-PRESSO.The results were expressed as odds ratios(OR)and corrected for false discovery rate(FDR).Results:MR analysis showed significant causal re-lationships between MSAB and increased risk of ADHD(OR=5.36,95％CI=2.58-7.63,PFDR=0.003),MDD(OR=1.92,95％CI=1.29-2.88,PFDR=0.003),and BD(OR=6.33,95％CI=1.56-8.73,PFDR=0.013).However,no statistically significant association was found between MSAB and ASD(OR=1.66,95％CI=0.23-5.87,PFDR=0.616).Conclusion:This study suggests a potential causal link between maternal smoking around the time of birth and an increased risk of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder,bipolar disorder,and major depressive disorder in offspring.

Objective:To examine the validity and reliability of the Chinese version of the Transgender Atti-tudes and Beliefs Scale(TABS)in the general adult population.Methods:A total of 1 656 residents aged≥18 years were recruited by convenient sampling method,and were equally divided into sample 1 and sample 2 accord-ing to age group.The total sample was used for item analysis and internal consistency reliability test.Sample 1 was used for exploratory factor analysis,Sample 2 was used for confirmatory factor analysis,and 60 residents were se-lected for retesting at a 2-week interval.Results:The TABS Chinese version included a total of 26 items,with the content validity index(I-CVI)of each item ranging from 0.83 to 1.00,and the content validity index(S-CVI)of the scale being 0.98.Exploratory factor analysis extracted 3 common factors,namely interpersonal comfort,gender beliefs,and human value,with a cumulative total variance of 57.13％.Confirmatory factor analysis showed that the scale fit was acceptable(x2/df=2.95,RMSEA=0.05,GFI=0.92,AGFI=0.90).The Cronbach α coefficients of the total score of the scale and the scores of the 3 factors were 0.95,0.95,0.88 and 0.86.The retest reliabilities were 0.88,0.78,0.65 and 0.91.Conclusion:The Chinese version of the Transgender Attitudes and Beliefs Scale(TABS)has good validity and reliability in assessing general adults'attitudes toward the transgender community.

Objective:To investigate the characteristics of visual and auditory sustained attention and sex differences in pupils of different grades.Method:Totally 231 students from grades 1 to 6 participated in this stud-y.The development and sex differences of sustained attention were measured by average reaction times,coefficients of variation for reaction times,omission error rates and commission error rates in visual and auditory two-choice re-action time(CRT)tasks.Result:The students in grade 5 had significantly slower visual average reaction times and coefficients of variation for reaction times(P＜0.001 or P＜0.05)than those in grade 3.The students in grade 5 had significantly lower auditory average reaction times,coefficients of variation for reaction times,omission error rates and commission error rates(P＜0.001 or P＜0.01)than those in grade 1.There was no significant sex differ-ences in visual or auditory average reaction times,coefficients of variation for reaction times or omission error rates(Ps＞0.05).Conclusion:There would be age differences in characteristics of both visual and auditory sustained at-tention in pupils,and may be no sex difference in visual or auditory sustained attention.

Objective:To investigate the latent classes of academic burnout and its relationship with psycho-logical resilience in high school students.Methods:The Academic Burnout Scale for High School Students(ABS-HSS)and the Resilience Scale for Chinese Adolescents(RSCA)were used to investigate the current status of aca-demic burnout and the levels of psychological resilience among 786 high school students,respectively.The latent class analysis(LCA)was conducted to explore the latent classes of academic burnout among high school students,and this study further examined the relationship between academic burnout and psychological resilience by regres-sion mixture modeling(RMM).Results:There were three latent classes,including the low burnout group(69.9％),the low achievement group(9.8％)and the overwhelmed group(20.3％).The regression mixture anal-ysis further indicated that the high school students with lower psychological resilience experienced higher academic burnout(OR=0.22-0.56),and the students with difficulty in emotional control mostly felt overwhelmed in their learning(OR=0.23).Conclusion:These findings suggest that the academic burnout among high school students exhibits distinct categorical characteristics and is closely assoiated with psychological resilience.

Objective:To explore the latent categories of mental health problems in patients with systemic lu-pus erythematosus(SLE)through latent class analysis,and to analyze the association between these mental health categories and both disease activity and fatigue in patients.Methods:Totally 147 patients with SLE were recruited from February 2022,to December 2023,at the department of Rheumatology,Qilu Hospital of Shandong Universi-ty.Latent class analysis was utilized to identify the latent categories of mental health problems.Multivariate linear regression was employed to analyze the association between these mental health categories and both disease activity and fatigue in patients with SLE.Results:Latent class analysis of four types of mental health problems in patients with SLE revealed two latent categories:a high mental health problems group(n=60)and a low mental health problems group(n=87).Compared to the low mental health problems group,the high mental health problems group showed a positive association with patient self-assessed disease activity(β=0.22)and fatigue(β=0.27).Conclusion:Mental health problems are common among patients with SLE and occur concurrently.Comprehensive management strategies should be selected when implementing psychological interventions.
