BackgroundAs a high prevalence disorder， schizophrenia has caused significant burden to family and society due to the impairment of occupational and social function. Currently， the dominant vocational training model in China follows a paternalistic， clinician-led decision-making approach. Although it improves patients' social function to some extent， it undermines their autonomy and treatment adherence. Therefore， it is urgently necessary to explore a new intervention method to enhance treatment compliance and social function in patients. ObjectiveTo explore the impact of shared decision-making oriented vocational training on social function in hospitalized schizophrenia patients， so as to provide references for rehabilitation interventions. MethodsA total of 68 patients diagnosed with schizophrenia according to the International Classification of Diseases， tenth edition （ICD-10） criteria were consecutively enrolled from January to June 2024 at The Third People's Hospital of Wenjiang Distric， Chengdu. Participants were randomly allocated into the research group （n=34） and the control group （n=34） using a random number table method. Both groups received routine rehabilitation training， while the research group received shared decision-making oriented vocational training for 12 weeks， 2 times a week for 2 hours each time. Before and at the 4^th and 12^th week of intervention， two groups were evaluated by General Self-Efficacy Scale （GSES）， Stigma Scale for Mental Illness （SSMI）， Scale of Social function of Psychosis Inpatients （SSFPI） and Inpatient Psychiatric Rehabilitation Outcome Scale （IPROS）. ResultsA total of 63 participants completed the study， with 30 cases in the research group and 33 cases in the control group. Repeated measures ANOVA revealed statistically significant time effects and interaction effects in both groups for GSES， SSMI， SSFPI and IPROS scores （F=20.451， 16.022； 26.193， 12.944； 23.957， 5.023； 11.776， 3.985， P<0.05 or 0.01）， while no significant group effects were observed （F=0.188， 0.742， 1.878， 0.474， P>0.05）. At the 12^th week of intervention， there were statistically significant differences in GSES， SSMI， SSFPI and IPROS scores between the two groups. ConclusionShared decision-making oriented vocational training may help to improve social function in patients with schizophrenia. ［Funded by 2023 Chengdu Medical Research Project （number， 2023468）］

Objective To explore the influencing factors of coronary artery lesion severity in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS). Methods Clinical data of ACS patients admitted to Zhongshan Hospital, Fudan University from December 2017 to December 2019 were consecutively collected. The modified Gensini score was used to assess the severity of coronary artery lesions. Univariate and multivariate linear regression analyses were performed to identify independent factors associated with coronary artery lesion severity. Results A total of 1 689 ACS patients were included, with an average age of (64.04±11.45) years; 1 353 (80.11%) were male, and the mean modified Gensini score was (8.12±4.03). Multivariate linear regression analysis revealed that sex (β＝0.97, P＝0.001), age (β＝0.03, P＝0.021), estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR; β＝－0.03, P＜0.001), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C; β＝0.58, P＜0.001), apolipoprotein A1 (Apo A1; β＝－1.28, P＝0.012), lipoprotein(a) [Lp(a); β＝0.001, P＝0.033], and glycated hemoglobin A_1C (HbA_1C; β＝0.45, P＜0.001) were independent influencing factors of the modified Gensini score. Conclusions Metabolic indicators, including Apo A1, LDL-C, HbA_1C, and Lp(a), may serve as risk factors for coronary artery lesion severity in ACS patients, with Apo A1 demonstrating the strongest impact.

Background::Risk assessment and treatment stratification for three-vessel coronary disease (TVD) remain challenging. This study aimed to investigate the prognostic value of left atrial volume index (LAVI) with the Synergy Between Percutaneous Coronary Intervention with Taxus and Cardiac Surgery (SYNTAX) score II, and its association with the long-term prognosis after three strategies (percutaneous coronary intervention [PCI], coronary artery bypass grafting [CABG], and medical therapy [MT]) in patients with TVD.Methods::This study was a post hoc analysis of a large, prospective cohort of patients with TVD in China, that aimed to determine the long-term outcomes after PCI, CABG, or optimal MT alone. A total of 8943 patients with TVD were consecutively enrolled between 2004 and 2011 at Fuwai Hospital. A total of 7818 patients with available baseline LAVI data were included in the study. Baseline, procedural, and follow-up data were collected. The primary endpoint was major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events (MACCE), which was a composite of all-cause death, myocardial infarction (MI), and stroke. Secondary endpoints included all-cause death, cardiac death, MI, revascularization, and stroke. Long-term outcomes were evaluated among LAVI quartile groups. Results::During a median follow-up of 6.6 years, a higher LAVI was strongly associated with increased risk of MACCE (Q3: hazard ratio [HR] 1.20, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.06-1.37, P = 0.005; Q4: HR 1.85, 95%CI 1.64-2.09, P <0.001), all-cause death (Q3: HR 1.41, 95% CI 1.17-1.69, P <0.001; Q4: HR 2.54, 95%CI 2.16-3.00, P <0.001), and cardiac death (Q3: HR 1.81, 95% CI 1.39-2.37, P <0.001; Q4: HR 3.47, 95%CI 2.71-4.43, P <0.001). Moreover, LAVI significantly improved discrimination and reclassification of the SYNTAX score II. Notably, there was a significant interaction between LAVI quartiles and treatment strategies for MACCE. CABG was associated with lower risk of MACCE than MT alone, regardless of LAVI quartiles. Among patients in the fourth quartile, PCI was associated with significantly increased risk of cardiac death compared with CABG (HR: 5.25, 95% CI: 1.97-14.03, P = 0.001). Conclusions::LAVI is a potential index for risk stratification and therapeutic decision-making in patients with three-vessel coronary disease. CABG is associated with improved long-term outcomes compared with MT alone, regardless of LAVI quartiles. When LAVI is severely elevated, PCI is associated with higher risk of cardiac death than CABG.

Objective To study the impact of a subject's testing state on residual noise level and ABR wave V amplitude during non-sedated ABR testing using Kalman-weighted averaging(KWA).Methods Twenty-one adults(18～34 years old,42 ears)with normal hearing were enrolled for non-sedated ABR testing under three different states(lying,sitting,and writing)in a quiet room using a new Kalman-weighted averaging ABR system(vivosonic integrity system).The residual noise level and the amplitude of wave V for click ABR(cABR)of each subject were recorded.The traditional ABR test system(interacoustics,IA)was also used to record ABR with the residual noise level and the amplitude of wave V measured at the same time.Results ① There was no significant difference in am-plitude of wave V between traditional ABR and non-sedated ABR in three different testing states(P＞0.05).②The residual noise levels in the lying and sitting states of KWA ABR were lower than those of traditional ABR,but there was no statistically difference(P＜0.05).The residual noise level of the KWA ABR system in writing state was significantly higher than that of the other three conditions(P＜0.05).③ There was no significant difference between the left and right ears in the residual noise level and amplitude of wave V for non-sedated ABR in writing state(P＞0.05).Conclusion Compared with traditional ABR,the non-sedated KWA ABR system in uriting state was significantly higher than that of the other three conolitions.Haw ever,the residual noise level in lying and sit-ting states had no significant difference with conditional ABR,and different states of the subject had impact on the residual noise level in the ABR testing to sone extent.

Objective To investigate the molecular mechanism of ulinastatin in reducing lung injury in neonatal sepsis rats.Methods Sepsis-induced lung injury patients(sepsis lung injury group)and healthy newborns born during the same period(control group)were selected as research subjects,and venous blood from newborns of each group was collected for use.Newborn SD rats were randomly divided into blank control group(given an equal volume of 0.9％NaCl),model group(4 mg·kg-1 lipopolysaccharide),and ulinastatin group(4 mg·kg-1 lipopolysaccharide+5 × 104 U·kg-1 ulinastatin),with 12 rats in each group.Survival of the rats within 24 hours of injection was observed,and after 24 hours,blood was collected from the heart,and lung tissues were collected.Real-time fluorescent quantitative polymerase chain reaction was used to detect the expression of CRNDE and miR-29a in serum and lung tissue.Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay was used to detect the expression of inflammatory factors such as interleukin 6(IL-6).Dual-luciferase reporter gene assay was used to verify the interaction between CRNDE and miR-29a.Kit methods were used to detect reactive oxygen species(ROS)and other oxidative stress indicators.Western blotting was used to detect the expression of heme oxygenase 1(HO-1).In situ fluorescence hybridization was used to detect the expression of CRNDE and miR-29a.Results The serum CRNDE expression levels in control group and sepsis lung injury group were 1.00±0.16 and 0.41±0.09,respectively;the expression levels of miR-29a were 1.00±0.14 and 1.83±0.25,respectively;IL-6 levels were(4.13±0.86)and(12.61±2.57)ng·mL-1,respectively.Compared with the control group,the above indexes in the sepsis lung injury group were statistically significant(all P＜0.05).The lung injury scores of blank control group,model group and ulinastatin group were 0.62±0.24,4.96±1.28,2.13±0.86,respectively;ROS levels were(0.93±0.15),(2.61±0.35),(1.58±0.23)U·mg-1,respectively;the protein levels of HO-1 were 1.00±0.17,2.19±0.31,1.17±0.16,respectively;IL-6 levels were(46.15±7.62),(186.77±21.30),(113.46±14.68)pg·mL-1,respectively;the expression levels of CRNDE were 1.00±0.12,0.41±0.06,0.82±0.13,respectively;the expression levels of miR-29a were 1.00±0.14,2.38±0.21 and 1.62±0.19,respectively.The above indexes were compared between blank control group and sepsis lung injury group,model group and blank control group,ulinastatin group and model group,and the differences were statistically significant(all P＜0.05).Conclusion Ulinastatin may alleviate lung injury in neonatal sepsis through IncRNA CRNDE/miR-29a signaling pathway.

Objective This study aimed to evaluate whether the onset of the plateau phase of slow hepatitis B surface antigen decline in patients with chronic hepatitis B treated with intermittent interferon therapy is related to the frequency of dendritic cell subsets and expression of the costimulatory molecules CD40,CD80,CD83,and CD86. Method This was a cross-sectional study in which patients were divided into a natural history group(namely NH group),a long-term oral nucleoside analogs treatment group(namely NA group),and a plateau-arriving group(namely P group).The percentage of plasmacytoid dendritic cell and myeloid dendritic cell subsets in peripheral blood lymphocytes and monocytes and the mean fluorescence intensity of their surface costimulatory molecules were detected using a flow cytometer. Results In total,143 patients were enrolled(NH group,n = 49;NA group,n = 47;P group,n = 47).The results demonstrated that CD141/CD1c double negative myeloid dendritic cell(DNmDC)/lymphocytes and monocytes(%)in P group(0.041[0.024,0.069])was significantly lower than that in NH group(0.270[0.135,0.407])and NA group(0.273[0.150,0.443]),and CD86 mean fluorescence intensity of DNmDCs in P group(1832.0[1484.0,2793.0])was significantly lower than that in NH group(4316.0[2958.0,5169.0])and NA group(3299.0[2534.0,4371.0]),Adjusted P all<0.001. Conclusion Reduced DNmDCs and impaired maturation may be associated with the onset of the plateau phase during intermittent interferon therapy in patients with chronic hepatitis B.

Objective To explore characteristics of clinical parameters and cytokines in patients with drug-induced liver injury(DILI)caused by different drugs and their correlation with clinical indicators. Method The study was conducted on patients who were up to Review of Uncertainties in Confidence Assessment for Medical Tests(RUCAM)scoring criteria and clinically diagnosed with DILI.Based on Chinese herbal medicine,cardiovascular drugs,non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs(NSAIDs),anti-infective drugs,and other drugs,patients were divided into five groups.Cytokines were measured by Luminex technology.Baseline characteristics of clinical biochemical indicators and cytokines in DILI patients and their correlation were analyzed. Results 73 patients were enrolled.Age among five groups was statistically different(P=0.032).Alanine aminotransferase(ALT)(P=0.033)and aspartate aminotransferase(AST)(P=0.007)in NSAIDs group were higher than those in chinese herbal medicine group.Interleukin-6(IL-6)and tumor necrosis factor alpha(TNF-α)in patients with Chinese herbal medicine(IL-6:P<0.001;TNF-α:P<0.001)and cardiovascular medicine(IL-6:P=0.020;TNF-α:P=0.001)were lower than those in NSAIDs group.There was a positive correlation between ALT(r=0.697,P=0.025),AST(r=0.721,P=0.019),and IL-6 in NSAIDs group. Conclusion Older age may be more prone to DILI.Patients with NSAIDs have more severe liver damage in early stages of DILI,TNF-α and IL-6 may partake the inflammatory process of DILI.
