Objective: To explore the object relation in the college students with borderline personality disorder(BPD) by thematic appearance test (TAT). Methods: The result of the social cognitive and object relation scale (SCORS) of BPD students was compared with that of the non-BPD students. Results: The BPD students got significantly lower scores in complexity of representations of people, affect-tone of relationship paradigms, and understanding of social causality. But there was no significant difference in the capacity for emotional investment in relationships and moral standards. Conclusion: The object relation of BPD students is different from that of the non-BPD students. The non-BPD students develop better in complexity of representations of people, affect -tone of relationship paradigms, and understanding of social causality.

BACKGROUND:There are many postmenopausal women taking hormone, which leads to much loss of bone mass, further inducing fragility fractures. The studies on the hormone exposure combined with ovariectomy-induced osteoporotic model are still immature, and the related molecular mechanism remains unclear. OBJECTIVE: To establish the rat osteoporotic model induced by ovariectomy combined with glucocorticoid exposure and to explore the underlying molecular mechanism. METHODS: Thirty 3-month-old female Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into blank control, sham and model groups (n=10 per group). The rats in the blank control group received no intervention; rats in the sham group were clipped off a little of coeliac adipose tissue; the model rats received bilateral ovariectomy and 4-week administration of glucocorticoid. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:At 4 weeks after modeling, compared with blank control and sham groups, the model group showed significantly lower bone mineral density of the femur, number of bone trabeculae and bone volume/total volume, and significantly wider bone trabecular spacing. Additionally, the model group revealed the damaged bone trabecular structure and thiner cortical bone. The expression level of Runx2 was downregulated whereas both collagen type 1α1 and peroxisome proliferators activated receptor γ mRNA were upregulated in the model group. These findings suggest that ovariectomized rats exposed to glucocorticoid rapidly develop femur osteoporosis, maybe by downregulating the expression of Runx2, as well as upregualting collagen type 1α1 and peroxisome proliferators activatedreceptor γ mRNA.

Objective:To estimate the incidence and risk factors of acute kidney injury (AKI) in preterm infants, and provide basis for better evaluation and treatment of renal function in preterm infants.Methods:All the hospitalized premature infants who were admitted to three research centers (Department of Neonatology at Beijing Children′s Hospital; Department of Neonatology at Beijing Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital; Department of Neonatology at Shunyi Maternal and Children′s Hospital of Beijing Children′s Hospital)from January 1, 2017 to June 30, 2019 and had more than two serum creatinine values or urine output were included.The incidence of AKI in preterm infants was calculated and the difference among different gestational weeks was compared.Preterm infants were divided into AKI and non-AKI groups according to AKI diagnostic criteria, and the clinical characteristics between two groups were compared, and the risk factors of AKI in preterm infants were analyzed.Results:A total of 763 premature infants were included in the analysis.Twenty two cases were diagnosed with AKI.The incidence of AKI in premature infants was 2.9%.The incidence of AKI was 33.3% (3/9), 3.7% (5/134), and 2.3% (14/620) in the 24-27 + 6 weeks, 28-31 + 6 weeks, and 32-36 + 6 weeks gestational age, respectively, and the difference was statistically significant ( χ2=31.010, P<0.001). Preterm infants in AKI group had a higher proportion of males(77.3% vs. 53.3%), lower gestational weeks[29(27, 33) weeks vs.31(29, 33)weeks], higher proportions of infants with diabetic mothers(40.9% vs.19.4%), lower Apgar scores at 1 and 5 minutes[8(7, 10) vs.9(8, 10), 9(9, 10) vs.10(9, 10), respectively], higher proportions of invasive and noninvasive respiratory support(45.5% vs.11.3%, 63.6% vs.19.2%, respectively), longer duration of invasive respiratory support[260(136, 742)h vs.72(18, 160)h], longer hospital stays[66(19, 88)d vs.42(26, 58)d], and higher rates of sepsis (27.3% vs. 6.5%), respiratory distress syndrome(40.9% vs. 11.6%), and patent ductus arteriosus that requiring ibuprofen or surgical closure(13.6% vs. 3.0%), diuretic(27.3% vs. 3.9%), and vasoactive drug use (22.7% vs. 3.6%) than those in non-AKI group, and the differences were statistically significant(all P<0.05). Multivariate regression analysis showed that sepsis was an independent risk factor for AKI in preterm infants ( P=0.039, OR=3.498, 95% CI 1.065-11.490) after adjustment of gestational age and birth weight. Conclusion:The incidence of AKI is relatively high in preterm infants with gestational age<28 weeks.Compared with preterm infants without AKI, preterm infants with AKI have smaller gestational weeks and longer hospital stay.Sepsis is an independent risk factor for AKI in preterm infants.

Objective To describe the epidemiological characteristics, investigation and treatment process of the first monkeypox cluster outbreak in Wuhan, and to provide reference for the prevention and control of monkeypox cluster outbreak in the future. Methods Field epidemiological investigation was conducted on the cases, and throat swabs, anal swabs, shingles fluid, whole blood, and serum samples were collected from the cases. Subsequently, real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction was employed for the detection of monkeypox virus nucleic acid and subsequent gene sequencing. Results Two cases had a high-risk exposure behavior in a hotel in Wuhan on June 2, 2023. The first case exhibited the emergence of beige papules on June 5 and sought medical treatment at a tertiary hospital in Wuhan on June 11. The Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention conducted tests on herpes fluid samples, which yielded positive results for the presence of monkeypox virus nucleic acid. Genetic sequencing analysis revealed that the infecting strain of the monkeypox virus in this case belonged to the West African clade B.1. Conclusion Based on epidemiological investigation and laboratory results, this monkeypox cluster outbreak may be caused by latent men with men sexual transmission. Monkeypox has the risk of both overseas importation and local transmission in our country. It is very necessary to detect, report and deal with monkeypox outbreak early.

OBJECTIVE: To explore the correlation between diabetic nephropathy (DN) and cognitive impairment through examining the cognitive function and the metabolism of the cerebrum in Type 2 diabetes mellitus patients at different stages of renal function.
 METHODS: Eighty six patients with Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) were enrolled for this study. According to the urinary albumin excretion rate (UAER), the patients were divided into a T2DM without DN group (DM group, n=33), an early DN group (DN-III group, n=26) and a clinical stage group (DN-IV group, n=27). Thirty healthy adults were selected as a control group (NC group). Biochemical indexes and UAER were measured, and glomerular filtration rate (GFR) was detected by single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT). The cognitive function was measured by Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA, Beijing version) and mini-mental state examination (MMSE). The peak areas of N-acetylasparte (NAA), creatine (Cr), choline-containing compounds (Cho) were detected by proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy (1H-MRS).
 RESULTS: 1) There was no statistical difference in MMSE scores between the DM group and the control group. The scores of MoCA in the DN-III group or in the DN-IV group were significant less than that in the NC group (F=3.66, P<0.05); 2) There was significant difference in left N-acetylaspartate (LNAA), left choline (LCho) among the diabetes groups. Compared with the DM group, the level of LNAA was decreased significantly (t=3.826, P<0.05) while the LCho was increased significantly (t=4.373, P<0.05) in the DN groups, with statistic difference between the 2 groups (t=3.693, P<0.05); 3) The MoCA scores of T2DM patients were negatively correlated with UAER (r=-0.285, P<0.05), while positively correlated with GFR (r=0.379, P<0.05); 4) Logistic regression analysis indicated that UAER and GFR were the major risky factors for diabetic cognitive impairment.
 CONCLUSION Diabetic cognitive impairment is closely correlated with the nephropathy in patients with Type 2 diabetes. With the decline in glomerular filtration function, the cognitive disorder tends to be aggravated. The hippocampal brain metabolism may have some changes in left side of Cho/Cr in patients with diabetic nephropathy.
