Objective: To explore the relationship of trait anxiety, gender difference and risk averse. Methods: A test was conducted fwstly in 328 college students with the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory. The participants with a score≥53 were termed as high trait-anxiety group (N=30), in contrast to the former, the par-ticipants with a score ≤ 30 were treated as the low trait-anxiety (N=30) . The material was 10 hypothesized risk settings, asking the participants to do decision-making, at the same time, the participants were also required to ac-cess their subjective cost if the result of their decision was negative; recording the scores and the reaction time of the participants. Results: The risk-avoidant score in high trait-anxiety group was significantly higher than that in low trait-anxiety group [(5.97±1.53) vs.(3.27±1.25), P <0.01], and the risk-avoidant score in males was sig-nificantly higher than that in females [(2.78±1.37) vs.(6.46±1.26), P <0.01] .There also had significant interaction effects between the 2 variables (F=7.43, P <0.01). The reaction time in males was also longer than that in females [high-trait anxiety: (1586.47±10.352)vs.(1067.52±18.468); low-trait anxiety: (643.46±36.759)vs.(498.36±9.673); P < 0.01] . The correlation between subjective loss and trait-anxiety in females was higher than that in males (Z=2.15, P<0.05) . Conclusion: There is significant effect of trait-anxiety and gender difference on risk-avoidant decision-making. The high-trait and female individuals have more risk-avoidant in decision-making.

Objectives To investigate the effects of military stress and psychological resilience on job burnout and mental health in military personnel and construct the relationship among resilience,job burnout and mental health during military stress.Methods By cluster random sampling,520 personnel in army taking part in the war-game were selected as the experimental group,and another group of 520 who not taking part in the wargame were selected as the control group.After one week of the war-game,the experimental group and control group were investigated by Military Personnel Mental Disorder Prediction Scale,Military Job Burnout Scale and Military Personnel Resilience Scale.The acquired datum were analyzed by t-test,correlation analysis,regression analysis and structural equation modeling analysis.Results (1) The total scores of mental disorder prediction and factor scores of psychosis,depression,mania,neurosis,personality disorder were((15.85±9.30),(0.36±0.91),(1.10±1.53),(2.66±1.78),(1.16± 1.57),(2.04± 1.83)) and the total scores of job burnout and its all factor scores were((23.05±9.40),(5.13±2.47),(3.19±2.18),(5.16±3.01),(1.71 ± 1.66),(3.29±2.21)) of experimental group were significantly higher than control group((11.20±6.24),(0.11 ±0.53),(0.55± 1.10),(1.89± 1.50),(0.51± 1.02),(1.10±1.13),(17.92±9.64),(4.28±2.92),(2.64±2.06),(3.84±2.46),(1.26± 1.37),(2.77±2.43),P=0.000).(2)Psychological resilience negatively correlated with job burnout and mental health(r=-0.52～-0.09,P＜0.05),and job burnout positively correlated with mental health (r=0.12 ～ 0.57,P＜0.01).(3) Under the military stress,psychological resilience was the accommodation to effect the mental health and job burnout of military personnel.(4)The analysis of structural equation modeling showed that psychological resilience had a direct effect on job burnout(the path coefficient was-0.56,P＜0.01),but it had no significant effect on mental health (the path coefficient was-0.06,P=0.302).Job burnout had a direct effect on mental health (the path coefficient was 0.73,P＜0.01),and the structural equation modeling fitted the data very well(x2/ df =3.138,GFI =0.943,AGFI =0.911,NFI =0.930,RFI =0.905,IFI =0.952,TLI =0.933,CFI =0.951,RMSEA =0.065).Conclusion Military stress can lead to job burnout and mental disorders that could be moderated by psychological resilience.Job burnout can fully mediate the relation between psychological resilience and mental health.Psychological resilience effects mental health by job burnout indirectly.

ObjectiveTo explore the decade-feature of military personnel' mental maladjustment and its influenced factors.MethodsBy random cluster sampling,a total of 10883 military personnel( including army,navy and air-force) were tested by military mental maladjustment scale (MMMS) in three decades (80s' 90s',2000),then employing SPSS 17.0 for data analysis by using ANOVA,LSD multiple-comparison,and stepwise regression analysis.ResultsThe single scores for behavioral disorders( (2.79 ±2.96),(3.42 ± 2.98 ) vs (2.85± 2.93 ) ),affective disorders ( ( 1.50 ± 1.47 ),( 1.76 ± 1.50 ) vs ( 1.51 ± 1.47 ) ),interpersonal relationship( ( 1.78 ± 1.93 ),( 2.44 ± 2.14) vs (2.30 ± 2.18 ) ),environmental adjustment( (0.63 ± 0.94 ),( 0.89 ± 1.02 )vs ( 1.02 ± 1.18) ),and total score ( ( 6.71 ± 6.01 ),( 8.50 ± 6.20) vs ( 7.69 ± 6.89 ) ) had significant differences in the three decades (P ＜ 0.01 ).The changing disposition of behavior,emotion,interpersonal relationship and total mental maladjustment seemed as reversed V in three decades,but environmental adjustment revealed linear increase; stepwise regression analysis revealed that total scores of mental maladjustment had significant decadeeffect after introducing other four independent variables( t =5.96,P =0.000 ) ; the educational level,urban-rural also had significant influence on military mental maladjustment( t =- 3.15,- 9.02,P =0.002 ～ 0.000 ).ConclusionThe mental maladjustment of military personnel reveale a decreasing disposition from 80s',90s' of last century to the year of 2000 ; the influencing factors are decade,educational level and rural-urban.

Objective To investigate the differential expression of microRNA (miRNA) in schizophrenia (SZ) patients,and explore the comorbidity of SZ and depression disorder based upon miRNA expression.Methods Affymetrix array analysis was used to investigate the differentially expressed miRNA in SZ patients firstly,and then quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) was further carried out to confirm the selected miRNA in peripheral blood mononuclear cells of 40 SZ patients,whom were administered by Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale (PANSS) and the selected miRNAs in depression disorder patients has also been confirmed by Affymetrix array analysis and qRT-PCR in our previous studies.Results Affymetrix array analysis indicated that there existed 33 miRNAs which differentially expressed (32 up-regulated and 1 down-regulated) compared with normal controls.qRT-PCR results suggested that the expression of 8 miRNAs (miR-1273d,miR-1303,miR-3064-5p,miR3131,miR-3687,miR-4428,miR-4725-3p and miR-5096) were significantly up-regulated in SZ;the miRNA differentially expressed in depression disorder patients also had differential expression in SZ patients (P＜0.05).There were significant correlation between the miRNAs differentially expressed in depression disorder patients and in SZ patients (P＜0.01).MiR-1972 differentially expressed in depression disorder patients had significant positive correlation with the positive symptoms of PANSS (P＜0.05),and miR-26b was positively correlated with composite factor (P＜0.05).Conclusion Comorbidity of SZ and depression disorder is observed not only on the clinical symptoms,but on the molecular genetic basis.

Objective:To compare the effectiveness of intravenous thrombolysis(IVT)alone versus mechanical thrombectomy(MT)in treating acute large vessel occlusive stroke(AIS-LVO).Amd to analyze the factors that are associated with the prognosis of MT.Methods:A total of 197 patients with acute ischemic stroke with large vessel occlusion(AIS-LVO)who received intravenous thrombolysis(IVT)and/or mechanical thrombectomy(MT)at the Stroke Center of the Second Hospital of Dalian Medical University from April 2016 to July 2021 were included in this retrospective analysis.Baseline data, clinical data, and 90-day Modified Rankin Scale(mRS)scores were collected for each group.The efficacy and risk of IVT alone and MT were compared using univariate and multivariate logistic regression analysis.Additionally, factors influencing the prognosis of MT were identified.Results:A total of 197 patients who met the inclusion criteria were included in this study.Out of these, 62 patients were in the IVT alone group and 135 patients were in the MT group.The results of the univariate analysis showed that the MT group had lower admission systolic blood pressure(147±23 vs.158±27 mmHg, P=0.003), higher baseline NIHSS score[15(12, 19) vs.12(8, 16), P=0.003], and there were also differences in vascular occlusion between the two groups( χ2=15.504, P=0.004).Specifically, the middle cerebral artery and basilar artery occlusion were higher in the MT group.In terms of outcome, the MT group had a higher percentage of good outcomes at 90 days[53(39%) vs.13(21%), χ2=6.381, P=0.012], and there was no significant difference in symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage(sICH)and mortality within 90 days.Among the 135 patients who underwent MT, 53 patients were classified as having a good prognosis, while 82 patients were classified as having a poor prognosis.Multivariate analysis revealed that age( OR=1.078, 95% CI: 1.025-1.133, P=0.003), neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio(NLR)( OR=1.164, 95% CI: 1.013-1.338, P=0.032), time from onset to recanalization( OR=1.004, 95% CI: 1.000-1.007, P=0.049), sICH( OR=15.585, 95% CI: 1.397-173.865, P=0.026), ASPECTS/pc-ASPECTS score( OR=0.524, 95% CI: 0.017-0.582, P=0.024), and good recanalization( OR=0.099, 95% CI: 1.718-59.046, P=0.010)were identified as independent prognostic factors.The results indicate that percutaneous transluminal angioplasty, stent implantation, and the use of tirofiban and butylphthalide did not significantly affect the prognosis of the MT group. Conclusions:The use of mechanical thrombectomy(MT)in patients with acute ischemic stroke due to large vessel occlusion(AIS-LVO)is more effective than intravenous thrombolysis(IVT)alone and has a similar safety profile.However, there are certain factors that can influence the prognosis of MT treatment.Older age, higher neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio(NLR), longer time from symptom onset to recanalization, and the occurrence of postoperative symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage(sICH)were identified as independent predictors of poor prognosis in MT treatment.On the other hand, a higher ASPECTS/pc-ASPECTS score and successful recanalization were found to be protective factors associated with a favorable prognosis in MT treatment.

Histomonas meleagridis is a facultative anaerobic parasite, which can cause a common poultry disease known as histomoniasis. The species and age of the birds impacts on the susceptibility, with turkey being the most susceptible species. Chickens are less susceptible to H. meleagridis than turkeys and usually serve as reservoir hosts. Here, the diagnosis of an outbreak of histomoniasis in backyard Sanhuang chickens is described. The primary diagnosis was made based on clinical symptoms, general changes at necropsy, histopathology, and the isolation and cultivation of parasites. The pathogen was further confirmed by cloning, PCR identification, and animal inoculation tests. A strain of H. meleagridis, named HM-JSYZ-C, with a higher pathogenicity level in chickens was obtained. The study lays a foundation for further investigations into H. meleagridis and histomoniasis in chickens.
