Objective To investigate the effect of computer-assisted cognition training on the cognitive functioning of schizophrenic patients.Methods One hundred and four persons with schizophrenia were randomly divided into a research group of 51 cases and a control group of 53.The former were given computerized cognition training covering attention,memory and executive functions.The training lasted 2 months.The controls received regular occupational and recreational therapy.Before and after the treatment the 2 groups were evaluated using the Positive and Negative Syndrome scale (PANSS),the Trail Making tests A and B (TMTs),Wechsler's memory scale (WMS) and the Wisconsin card sorting test (WCST).Results The average total PANSS score of the research group declined significantly from (70.23 ±7.62) before treatment to (59.82 ± 8.41) after treatment;so did that of the control group from (68.32 ± 10.14) to (59.45 ± 9.05).The average negative symptoms scale score of the treatment group and the control group also decreased significantly for (21.46 ± 3.26) before treatment to (16.67 ±3.20),and from (20.82 ±4.21) to (17.08 ±3.23) respectively,but there was no significant difference between the groups in the magnitude.The research group's average TMT A and TMT B scores also decreased from(51.76±21.18) and (114.31 ±35.76) to (44.14 ±17.51) and (96.47 ±34.43),while no significant difference was observed before and after the treatment in the control group.The WMS recognition and regeneration scores of the research group improved significantly from (5.83 ± 3.12) and (8.63 ± 3.45) to (8.21 ± 3.96) and (10.24 ±3.52) after intervention,while no improvement was found in the control group.The same trend was observed in the total test number,the continuous error numbers,the correct numbers and the classification number scores in the WCST.Conclusion Computerized cognition training can improve the cognition of persons with schizophrenia to some extent.

The occurrence of depression is related to many factors,and the current research mainly focus on biological aspects such as biochemistry,neuroendocrine and immune,and genetic factors. However, as an important psychological factor,the relationship between childhood trauma and depression has not been paid enough attention. Therefore,it is important to discuss and summarize the relationship between them. Many literatures have shown that childhood trauma can significantly increase the prevalence of depression, which has a great impact on the clinical characteristics and treatment of patients with depression. The mecha-nism may be related to the changes in cognitive and psychological patterns caused by trauma. In addition, childhood trauma can affect the epigenetics and brain structure of patients with depression. Based on the a-bove findings,the public should pay attention to the mental health problems in childhood,minimize or avoid childhood trauma,so as to reduce the occurrence of depression.

Objective To explore cognitive change in schizophrenic patients with concomitant metabolism syndrome,and to provide theory basis for early intervention and treatment.Methods According to inclusion standard,56 schizophrenic inpatients with metabolism syndrome and 56 schizophrenic inpatients without metabolism syndrome were included.The matrics consensus cognitive battery(MCCB),stroop test,digit span,UPSA-B were used to assess the cognitive function.Results There were significant differences for test scores of symbol coding subtest,verbal memory subtest,digit sequence subtest,Maze subtest,continue performance among MCCB between schizophrenic patients with and without metabolism syndrome(27.07±10.46 vs 32.18±12.12,16.04±5.07 vs18.71±6.02,13.39±5.18 vs 15.79±5.48,1.38±0.66 vs 1.7±0.68,all P＜0.05),as well as stroop test and digit span test(31.14±11.68 vs 36.57±13.32,13.77±3.64 vs 15.82±4.38,P＜0.05 for both).Conclusion The schizophrenic patients with metabolism syndrome have severer cognitive impairment than those without metabolism syndrome.

Objective:To explore the relationship between early maladaptive schemas, defense styles and mental health in patients with depression, and to investigate the mediating effects of defense styles between early maladaptive schemas and mental health.Methods:A total of 87 outpatients with depression were assessed with the Young schema questionnaire-short form 2(YSQ-SF2), defense style questionnaire(DSQ), symptom checklist-90(SCL-90) and Beck depression inventory(BDI). SPSS Process program and Bootstrap method were used to explore the mediating effect of defense styles.Results:The scores of abandonment/instability were higher in females than those in males (2(0.5, 4), 0(0, 1.25), Z=-2.963, P=0.003) while the score of emotional inhibition was higher in males than in females (1(0, 3), 0(0, 2), Z=-2.318, P=0.02). The total score of SCL-90 was positively predicted by vulnerability to harm or illness and emotional deprivation, with an explanatory variation rate of 27.7%.The number of SCL-90 positive items was positively predicted by social isolation/alienation and abandonment/instability, with an explanatory variation rate of 19.3%.Immature defense styles fully mediate the relationship between social isolation/alienation and mental health, as well as between abandonment/instability and mental health. Conclusion:Social isolation/alienation and abandonment/instability affect the mental health of patients with depression by the mediating effect of immature defense styles.

Objective: To analyze the influence of cognition on suicidal ideation in patients with major depressive disorder. Methods: A total of 108 inpatients with major depressive disorder from January 2017 to September 2018 in Beijing Huilongguan Hospital were enrolled.They were divided into suicidal ideation group (n=42) and non-suicidal ideation group (n=66) by the self-rating idea of suicide scale (SIOSS). Cognition was assessed by Repeatable Battery for the Assessment of Neuropsychological Status(RBANS). The general situation was assessed by self-made general situation questionnaire.The related factors were analyzed by Logistic regression. Results: (1) The rate of suicidal ideation was 44.4% in patients with major depressive disorder.(2) The total score of RBANS and five-factor scores of RBANS in suicidal ideation group were lower than those in non-suicidal ideation group(total RBANS score(63.0±7.9) vs (73.8±7.7); immediate memory: (62.7±8.8) vs (70.8±7.6); visual span: (67.2±10.0) vs (72.7±9.8); speech function: (83.3±13.8) vs (91.5±4.5); attention: (85.3±11.9) vs (99.9±8.5); delayed memory: (53.5±7.7) vs (62.3±9.7), F=6.335-46.660, P<0.05). (3)Logistic regression showed, years of education were risk factors for suicidal ideation(β=0.289, P=0.013, OR=1.335, 95%CI=1.063-1.676), RBANS attention factor(β=-0.161, P=0.000, OR=0.851, 95%CI=0.778-0.931)and RBANS delayed memory factor score(β=-0.151, P=0.006, OR=0.860, 95%CI=0.772-0.957)were protective factors for suicidal ideation. Conclusion Cognitive function has an impact on suicide ideation of depressive patients, mainly attention and delayed memory are protective factors for suicide ideation.
