Objective To compare various risk factors of bipolar disorders with and without suicidal behavior. Methods A total of 5452 inpatients were divided into 2 groups; with (n=1739)and without (n=3713) suicidal behavior within 1 week. Socio-demographic and clinical data were compared between two groups. Multiple logistic regression models were used to assess risk factors of bipolar disorders with suicidal behavior. Results Compared to without suicidal behavior group, the suicidal behavior group had significantly higher rate of the following characteristics:older age [34.8±13.6 vs. 33.3±12.8, t=-3.46, P<0.01], female (58.3%vs. 52.7%,χ2=14.83, P<0.01), history of mental trauma (10.6%vs.7.8%,χ2=10.72, P<0.01), history of suicide (4.1%vs. 0.1%,χ2=140.11, P<0.01), family history of suicide (6.7%vs. 3.9%,χ2=20.22, P<0.01), family history of mental illness (33.8%vs. 29.6%,χ2=9.33, P<0.01) and history of suicide (4.1% vs. 0.1%, χ2=140.11, P<0.01). Logistic regression analysis showed that female (OR: 1.192, 95%CI:1.043-1.363), older age (OR: 1.008, 95%CI: 1.003-1.013), history of mental trauma (OR: 1.355, 95%CI:1.083-1.696), history of suicide (OR:39.139, 95%CI:12.230-125.256) and family history of suicide (OR:1.648, 95%CI: 1.223-2.221) were significantly correlated with suicidal behavior in bipolar disorders. Conclusions The study indicates that female, older age, history of mental trauma, history of suicide and family history of suicide may be the key independent risk factors to suicidal behavior in bipolar disorders.

Objective To compare the dose distribution of the target and normal tissues in gastric cancers between three-dimension conformal radiation therapy (3DCRT) and intensity modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) plan when respiratory motion factors integrated in the plan. Methods From January 2005to November 2006, 10 patients with post-operatively radiation of gastric cancer were enrolled in this study.Planning CT were acquired conventionally with free-breath mode and the static treatment plans of the 3DCRT and IMRT were designed respectively. Probability distribution functions (PDF) were generated and convoluted with the static dose distributions from 3DCRT and IMRT plans to obtain the integrated plans. The dose distributions of the target and normal tissues were compared between 3DCRT and IMRT integration treatment plans, such as V45 of clinical target volume, V4o of liver and V15, V18 of left and right kidney.Results In the respiratory integrated treatment planning, the target volume coverage and homogeneity with IMRT are superior to those with 3DCRT ( ( V45 98%∶ 87% (t = -3. 35 ,P =0. 010) ,mean dose 46. 81 Gy ±0. 75 Gy∶45.99 Gy ± 1.12 Gy (t = -0. 31 ,P=0. 020) ). The V40 of teh liver in IMRT are smaller than those in 3DCRT ( 12%∶ 16% ;t=3.75,P=0.010). For the left kidney, the V15 and V18 in IMRT are smaller than those in 3DCRT ( (34%∶ 50% (t = 2. 17 ,P = 0. 050) and 27%∶46% (t = 3. 11 ,P = 0. 020) ),but for the right kidney, V15 and V18 in 3DCRT are smaller than those in IMRT ( ( 15%∶ 21% (t = - 2. 42,P=0.040) and 11%∶15% (t= -2.71,P=0.030)). Conclusions When respiratory motion factor integrated in the treatment plan, IMRT showed advantage both in target coverage and normal tissue sparing in the high dose region of liver and left kidney.

Objective:To evaluate the effect of early mobilization on mortality in intensive care unit (ICU) patients with mechanical ventilation after discharge by Meta-analysis.Methods:Databases including SinoMed, China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), Wanfang data, PubMed, the Cochrane Library, Web of Science, and Embase were searched from inception to September 17th, 2020, to collect randomized controlled trials (RCT) about early mobilization on mortality of patients with mechanical ventilation in ICU after discharge, the references included in the literature were traced. The control group was given routine care, the experimental group was given early mobilization on the basis of the control group, including passive or active mobilization on the bed, sitting on the bed, standing by the bed, transferring to the bedside chair and assisting walking. The literature screening, data extracting, and the bias risk assessment of included studies were conducted independently by two reviewers. Stata 12.0 software was then used to perform Meta-analysis. Funnel plot was used to test publication bias.Results:A total of 10 RCT studies involving 1 323 patients were included, with 660 patients in the control group and 663 patients in the experimental group. The results of literature quality evaluation showed that 7 studies were grade A and 3 studies were grade B, indicating that the overall quality of included literatures was high. The Meta-analysis results showed that early mobilization did not increase the mortality of patients with mechanical ventilation in ICU after discharge [odds ratio ( OR) = 0.92, 95% confidence interval (95% CI) was 0.75-1.13, P = 0.449]. Subgroup analysis results showed that early mobilization had a tendency to reduce the mortality of ICU patients with mechanical ventilation at 3, 6 and 12 months after discharge, but the difference was not statistically significant (3-month mortality: OR = 1.02, 95% CI was 0.74-1.40, P = 0.927; 6-month mortality: OR = 0.95, 95% CI was 0.70-1.27, P = 0.712; 12-month mortality: OR = 0.60, 95% CI was 0.33-1.10, P = 0.101). Funnel plot showed that the distribution of included literatures was not completely symmetrical, suggesting that publication bias might exist. Conclusions:Early mobilization does not increase the mortality of ICU patients with mechanical ventilation after discharge. Although it tends to have a favorable outcome in reducing mortality, and has a trend to reduce the mortality. However, due to the small number of included literatures, small sample size and differences in the specific implementation of early mobilization among various studies, a large number of high-quality RCT studies are still needed for further verification.

Objective:To explore the influencing factors for compliance to colonoscopy screening for colorectal cancer in outpatients.Methods:Patients aged 40-74 years who visited the outpatient gastroenterology department of 7 tertiary hospitals in 7 regions of Xinjiang from January 2022 to June 2022 were enrolled. Recommendations for colonoscopy screening were made according to the patient's medical conditions, and the questionnaire was used to collect information. The Chi-square test was used to compare the differences of compliant and non-compliant patients. Multivariate logistic regression was used to analyze the influencing factors of compliance to colonoscopy screening.Results:A total of 463 valid questionnaires were obtained from 7 centers, in which, 427 outpatients (92.2%) followed the recommendation for colonoscopy screening, and 36 (7.8%) did not. Chi-square test results showed that there were statistically significant differences between the two groups in gender, age, education, subjective cognition of intestinal polyps, personal history of colorectal polyps, family history of colorectal cancer, family history of colorectal polyps, abdominal pain or distension, and defecation habit or stool changes ( P<0.05). The results of multivariate regression analysis showed that the screening compliance of patients aged 40-49 years ( P=0.005, OR=0.141, 95% CI: 0.036-0.549) and 50-59 years ( P=0.039, OR=0.257, 95% CI: 0.071-0.932) was lower than that of patients aged 60-74 years. The screening compliance of patients with high school education ( P=0.011, OR=3.121, 95% CI: 1.304-7.473) and college education or above ( P=0.016, OR=3.544, 95% CI: 1.270-9.890) was higher than those with primary school education and below. Patients with personal history of colorectal polyps ( P=0.015, OR=12.288, 95% CI: 1.629-92.719), family history of colorectal cancer ( P=0.038, OR=8.506, 95% CI: 1.124-64.351) and changes in defecation habit or stool trait ( P=0.039, OR=4.794, 95% CI: 1.085-21.192) also had higher compliance. Conclusion:Age, educational level, personal history of colorectal polyps, and family history of colorectal cancer are related to colonoscopy screening compliance in outpatients of 7 tertiary hospitals in 7 regions of Xinjiang. The independent risk factors affecting compliance to colorectal cancer screening in outpatients are age of 40-59 years, lower educational level, no previous history of polyps or family history of colorectal cancer, and no defecation habit or stool changes.
