Objective: To explore the effects of personality and sleep quality with psychological distress of junior and senior high school stduents, so as to provide a reference basis for precise interventions of junior and senior high school students mental health. Methods: In October 2023, a convenience sampling method was used to select 9 034 students aged 12-17 from Shiyan City as the study subjects. The Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) and Kessler Psychological Distress Scale (K10) were used to collect information on sleep quality and psychological distress of junior and senior high school stduents. Between group comparison was conducted by using t-test and Chi-square test. Generalized linear models were employed to analyze the interaction and joint effects of personality and sleep quality on psychological distress. Results: The generalized linear model analysis showed that the interaction between personality and sleep quality on psychological distress was statistically significant of junior and senior high school students(effect size=0.80, P <0.01). The general linear model analysis indicated that, after adjusting for variables such as age, gender, screen time, and daily sitting time with the extroverted and good sleep quality group as the reference, the introverted and poor sleep quality group had the largest mean difference in psychological distress scores (difference=0.51, P <0.05). When stratified by sleep quality, psychological distress scores were higher in the introverted and neutral personality groups with both poor and good sleep quality compared to the extroverted group (poor sleep quality: introverted difference=3.71, neutral difference=1.14; good sleep quality: introverted difference=2.23, neutral difference=0.57, all P < 0.05). When stratified by personality, psychological distress scores were higher in the poor sleep quality groups for introverted, neutral, and extroverted individuals compared to their good sleep quality counterparts (differences=8.66, 7.83, 7.34, all P < 0.05 ). Conclusions Personality and sleep quality have interactive and joint effects on psychological distress of junior and senior high school stduents. Personalized psychological interventions should be developed based on personality and sleep quality.

Objective To find out current distribution of Oncomelania snails and Schistosoma infection in snails in Zhejiang Province, so as to improve the project of schistosomiasis control. Methods Investigation spots were selected by stratified cluster sampling method, 100 villages of 34 counties were selected from 7 106 villages of 55 counties as survey spots. Synchronously systematic and environmental samplings were used for the survey. Snails were dissected to determine the infection status and spots with sham snails were set to assess the quality of the survey. Results The result showed that snails were found in 223 strips, 1 572 frames and 73 300 m 2 area in 32 villages of 21 counties. Snails were found in an area covering 72 640 m 2 in 29 villages of 18 counties in hilly region, which accounted for 99.1% of total snail habitats. The significantly larger area with snails was revealed in hilly region than that in water network region (t=3.04, P

AIM To establish a new, simple, stable and classical experimental model of acute edematous pancreatitis. METHODS Male mice were injected intraperitoneally 2?200 mg?(100 g) -1 body weight of L-arginine in an 1 h interval, as a 20% solution in 0.15 mol?L -1 NaCl. Control mice received the same quantity of 0.15 mol?L -1 NaCl. The mice were killed at 6, 12, 24, 48, 72 h following L-arginine administration. The serum amylase level, wet/dry weight ratio of the pancreas, histologic were assessed. RESULTS The serum level of amylase was significantly elevated at 6 h,reached the peak level at 24 h, normalized at 72 h. Histologic examination revealed interstitial edema and inflammatory cell infiltration reached the peak level at 24 h and decreased at 48,72 h. The wet/dry weight ratio of the pancreas changed in accordance with the interstitial edema. CONCLUSIONS The present study has demonstrated that the administration of excessive doses of arginine induces a new, noninvasive experimental model of acute edematous pancreatitis.
